Hi,
How can I tell if SQL Server 2000 is installed on my local machine ? I have Enterprise Manager and Query Analyzer installed, are they part of the server install ?
Thanks,
J.
I have installed an SQL Server 2000 Developer Edition (SP4) on acomputer that has Windows Server 2003 on it.The server is connected tothe workgroup "WORK" and has no Active Directory. Now I cannot connectto that database server from other computers in the network. On theserver itself, I can registrate the instance from the own SQL Server2000 and also an instance from an other SQL Server 2000 installation ona Windows 2000 Server in the network.The network consists of a Windows 2000 Server (with a SQL Server 2000installation), some workstations (W2000 Pro, Win XP Pro) and the newinstalled Windows Server 2003.When I try to connect to that new database Server with Query Analyzerfrom an other computer I get allways the message box with the text like"...SQL Server doesnt exist or access denied. ConnectionOpen(Connect())..."Many thanks for help.bitchanger
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have about 4 SQL servers that have SQL2005 as the default instance and SQL2000 as a second instance. My problem is that I can not connect to the SQL2000 instances using the instance name. I can get to it using IP address and port number or if I set up an alias with IP and port number, but not by name (ie ServerNameSQL2000 which is how the instance was named). If the process is reversed (install SQL 2000 first and then SQL 2005) I can get to both instances using instance name.
I read something about if SQL2005 Browser service is running when SQL2000 service starts, the SQL2000 service won't listen for calls, but it was rather vague and I am not real sure if that is true. I am in the process of trying to test this to see if it is true, but due to the nature of the servers, I have to follow a process and it will take me a couple of days before I can test.
So I was hoping to find someone to deny or confirm this. Or who has had a similar issue and can shed some light on this for me. Thank you for you time. I appreciate it.

I have a Cluster environment that has SQL 2000 Enterprise installed. I would like to install SQL 2005 Enterprise as well. What should I watch out for. Do I need to specify a named instance for the 05 install, setup is giving me the option and does see the 2000 instance? Is there a document that walks through this installation?
Regards
We just built a new server with Windows 2003 64bit OS and installed SQL2005 64bit (named SQLServer let's say) as the default instance and SQL2000 32bit (named SQLServerSQL2000 let's say) as a second instance. The first instance is listening on the 1433 port and the second instance is on the 1344 port.
I can connect to the default instance with Management Studio without issue using the SQL instance name, but to connect to the second instance I have to create an alias with the port number (SQLServerSQL2000,1344) on my machine. I have never had to do that before with a second instance.
I am trying to figure out if this is an issue with 32bit SQL running on 64bit OS or what. I am kind of stumped.
Any information would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!!!

Hi All!
In my computer I have Installed MS SQL Server 2005(Default Instance) & MS SQL Server 2000(Duynnh Instance). When I write an ASP.NET app to connect to SQL Server 2005 it's OK but not connect in SQL Server 2000. Please give me the SQL Connection string to connect to SQL Server 2000.
When I open Query analyzer connection is OK for both.
Thanks.
I am facing a problem with Convert function in SQL server 2000 with sp3 installed , Japanese version
In sql server 2000 (sp1 installed) Japanese version, the convert(datetime,,111) gives me date in the format yyyy-mm-dd hh:min:sec
But in sql server 2000 (sp3 instaled) Japanese version, the convert(datetime, ,111) gives me date in the format yyyy-mm-dd.
I need the hh:min:sec to do an exact date comparison.
The problem is solved if I use Convert(datetime,,120).
Any pointers on the root cause of why the problem occurs with convert() function once sp3 is installed?

View 2 Replies View RelatedWe have just installed a SQL Server 2000 (SP 3A) onto a computer thathas Windows-2003 Server on it. Now, we cannot get access to thatdatabase server from other computers. Seem like this may be an issuewith Active Directory.Our network consists of Windows-2000 Servers (SP 4) and Windows-2000workstations and Windows-XP workstations. We also have SQL Server 2000(SP2) in three Windows-2000 servers. All work fine. Recently, we get anew server that has already had Windows-2003 Server pre-installed.After we have installed SQL Server 2000 (SP 3A) on the new server, wefind that we cannot get access to that new database server from othercomputers.I have tried connecting to that new database server using QueryAnalyzer (using both the sa account and Windows Authentication), and Iget this error message:Unable to connect to server NEWDBSRV:Server: Msg 17, Level 16, State 1[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBNETLIB]SQL Server does notexist or access denied.I have tried connecting to that new database server using ISQL (usingboth the sa account and Windows Authentication), and I get this errormessage:DB-Library: Unable to connect: SQL Server is unavailable or does notexist.Unable to connect: SQL Server does not exist or network accessdenied.Net-Library error 53: ConnectionOpen (Connect()).I have also tried to register the new database server using EnterpriseManager (again, using both the sa account and Windows Authentication),and I get this error message:NEWDBSRV - SQL Server does not exist or access denied.ConnectionOpen(Connect())The only way that I can get access to the new database server is toopen Enterprise Manager directly on the new server.I have compared the properties of the new database server and those ofthe other existing database servers. The only differences are:-Other database servers are running Windows-2000. The new databaseserver is running Windows-2003.-The new database server is missing the "Active Directory" page-tagwhen I check its properties using Enterprise Manager. We use ActiveDirectory in our network, and the Active Directory is being run from aWindows-2000 server (that is currently also a database server).According to our network administrator, he has already put the newserver into our Active Directory. He doesn't know why it is missingthe Active Directory page-tag. He believes this has something to dowith its having Windows-2003 that is different from other servers(that have Windows-2000).Thanks in advance for any info.Jay Chan

I have another question now.
As the topic said, my sql server 2000 installed on windows xp sp2, the computer's name is "ADMIN" and the server 2000's name is "ADMIN".
When i startup the sql server 2000, it just listening on shared memory and name pipes, not including the "TCP/IP" . So i can not connect to the sql server using the port 1433.
Some people said that the reason was the system's firewall. I also found some supports on the websites 'www.support.microsoft.com'. It said that you can set the port 1433 or the sqlservr.exe to the execption. I also do that, but still not works.
Is there any things i forget and how can i solve the problems! Thanks for advances.

Hello All
I have inherited another team's database and I'm going through the process of documenting and looking for things to optimize and tune.
I just ran across a query like this:
Select AccountName, AccountNumber, DepartmentName, AccountStartDate,AccountEndDate From tblAccount Where AccountNumber IN ( and there is a list of over 2,500 accounts listed. I couldn't believe my eyes. I gotta' believe that this query would not peform very well under these conditions. Plus the table doesn't have a primary key or even an index.
I just had to rant to someone.
Thanks!

Hi,
I have many sql 2000 DTS packages that I support from my development workstation running v2000 sp4. Packages are altered on the development machine and then go through a normal release mechanisms to production via testing servers etc.
I have recently installed the client tools for SQL Server 2005 on my desktop to evaluate the product. The 2005 DB instance is running on a seperate server.
So, I have dev edition of sql 2000 and 2005 client tools (including BI Dev studio etc) on my workstation.
I have recently had to make changes to a 2000 DTS package and used my 2000 enterprise manager to do so. No Problem- saved and tested fine on my workstation.
But when I try and release it to another server, or open the package using enterprise manager from another machine that does not have sql 2005 installed - I get an error message 'Unspecified error'. This I've seen before when trying to open packages created in v2000 , using v7 or where the service packs are different between machines.
Digging around my workstation and comparing some of the DLLs I know to be required to distribute DTS packages (from RDIST.txt) it seems that some of the SQL 2000 dll files have been updated by my 2005 installation.
E.g
DTSFFILE.DLL on my machine is 2000.85.1054.0 whilst on any 'clean' 2000 machine is at version v2000.80.760.0
Surely it cant be right that SQL 2005 has newer versions of components for SQL 2000 than is available with the latest SP for the actual product! Especially considering that the installation of 2005 does not even allow you to edit 2000 DTS packages through the management studio without a 'special' download' of the feature pack,(whihc by the way does not work very well either)
So am I to conclude that you can not run side by side installations of SQL 2000 and 2005 on a single machine and expect 2000 to run as it did previously !!!
hi there - I'm praying someone here can shed some light on this - after many google and web searches, I have found users with similar issues, but have yet to find a solution.
Problem: I have recently upgraded my desktop from Windows XP to Windows Vista Ultimate (clean install) and have migrated my local machine to SQL Server 2005. However I have a number of .Net projects that access databased on another server running SQL Server 2000 - prior to my upgrade to Vista, I was running SQL Server 2000 on my desktop as well. During the install, everything seemed to go well, and I also installed the SQL Server 2005 Service pack as instructed via the MSDN site. However, when attempting to test my .net projects on my desktop pc (ie visit http://localhost), I encounter the error:
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
note that the server I am attempting to connect TO is the old SQL 2000 server - NOT 2005. I specify my connection info in the web.config - and it points to an external ip address on the web.
Can anyone shed some light on this? I've tried enabling remote access on my local SQL 2005 install, but I'm fairly sure thats for servers that want to connect to my desktop, rather than my desktop attempting to connect to external servers. Any help is greatly appreciated - I'm pulling my hair out over trying to figure this out! :)
To summarize my setup (if it helps)
Desktop PC:Windows Vista (Ultimate)SQL Server 2005Visual Studio 2005II 7.0.Net 2.0 (ASP.Net Application)
External Server (co-located at a datacenter)Windows Server 2003SQL Server 2000IIS 6.0.Net 2.0 (ASP.Net Application)

Hi Friends,
I have a question. At my home computer i downloaded and installed VWD. As usual it also installed Sqlexpress as part of the installation(i checked the option). Later on i downloaded Management studio separately so i am fine with my home computer as every thing is free.
But at work we decided to develop application using VS 2005 and Sqlserver 2005. So we bought and installed VS2005 professional edition at work and it also installed Sqlexpress during the installation as a defualt desktop engine. I am fine with that too. But i am not understing where do i get the Management studio? Is it some thing i could get it off the web for free or what? I am not sure we would have an option while installing the VS 2005 professional that also does install management studio and we need to check that option. I am not sure if we could get the management studion off the web for free and and evelop applications.
Please advise. Thanks -L
I want to find whether SQL Server 2005 x86 is installed or SQL Server 2005 x64 is installed programatically(Any API would do.) If anyone can recommend a registry key that I can rely on find whether it is a 32 bit or 64 bit SQL Server that would suffice.

I'm just wondering how many people have gone to SQL 7 SP3.
Is it a case of only applying it if it fixes a particular problem you are experiencing, or have you installed it to keep with the latest version ?
Please let me have your thoughts (I'm currently running SP2).
Regards,

Hey all,
How do I install a SQL Server 2005 Express to have no instance?
I have a SQL 2005 Server Enterprise which has no instance, just the server name, even when pointing to the DB, you just use the server name and the DB name.
I am not any good in SQL, but need to configure SQL Express for a project I am busy with and would like it if I could only have a name, and not an instance.
hi friends,

I'm running Sharepoint server and Visual Studio on Windows server 2003. Sharepoint has its sql (officeServer) and Visual Studio installed sql express when it was installed. I can't connect to either one in VS or anywhere else. I wanted to install the adventureWorks sql database, so as to do SDK samples, and that didn't work either. I really don't understand what's going on with sql and how to use it. I can see both are running in the SQL configuration manager. Can anyone help?

I had previously had VS2005 Beta installed from my MSDN discs. When it expired, I uninstalled it and downloaded VWD Express to install. VWD installed fine, but the SQL Server Express will not install. The VWD install package doesn't give me any feedback, just says it failed. I tried dowloading and installing SQL Express separately, and it tells me that I have to uninstall all components from other versions. I have done that, but still wont install. If I use the uninstall utility on the website, it tells me it can't find any components, and all of the components listed in the manual uninstall instructions are missing, so I can't find anything further to uninstall. (FYI: I'm running XP Pro SP2).
I'm wondering if a registry setting or something didn't get updated on uninstall. I see a registry folder for "Microsoft SQL Server" but I do not know if this could be getting in the way.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hi,
I am wondering how I can check which type of SQL Server 7 I have installed. (ie Standard/Enterprise etc) If I use @@version the following is returned:
Microsoft SQL Server 7.00 - 7.00.699 (Intel X86)
I know that the service pack number is incorporated into the version number above but I want to know the type of server I have running.
Any ideas on how I can get this information?
Cheers

Does anyone know how I would go about getting the MS SQL Server agent to show up as a service ? For some reason it does not show up on my Server as a service even though SQL Server 2000 is installed on that server.

I have a server that has SQL Server installed on both C and D drives. The SQL Server software is currently running from the C drive and the live databases and backups are stored on the D drive.
I need to have everything on the D drive. Is there an easy way to make the registry point to the D drive without reinstalling SQL Server? The software will needs to run from the D drive because the C drive is running out of disk space. I will also need to delete the whole C:mssql directory.
Thanks.
I have an ugent situation. Due to a failure we had to build a new db server for an application and this was done succuessfully. The application requires DTC and it was not intalled when we install SQL on the server.
How do I install DTC? Did I miss an obscure option during SQL install?

Customer has an SBS 2000 server setup, and had installed SQL Server 2000 on it. They have an application (Time Slips) which I thought could use SQL, but apparently they bought the standard edition which only supports the use of MSDE.
I thought MSDE was like SQL 2000 "lite". I want to house the MSDE database on the server, but it says it cannot find MSDE.
Do I need to uninstall SQL 2000 Server? And where do I go to install MSDE properly on the server, and what is required for each W2K Pro workstation?
Thanks!

Please forgive me if this sounds so silly, but I am a complete newbie on SQL SERVER (the only think I ve worked on so far is Access) and I need help.
I ve just installed the SQL Server 2005 and the things I have are about configuation, such as:
-sql server configuration manager
-sql server error and usage reporting
-sql server surface area configuration
-notification services command prompt
-reporting services configuration
Is that all? Did I miss anything? How am I supposed to create databases? How can I connect remotely to another server (database)?
I know I may sound stupid but Im on the beginning and I would so much appreciate any kind of help.
Thanks in advance,

So where do I go from here/
SSMS doesn't seem to have anything like QA?

After the long winded process of installing SQL Server 2005 - Developer Edition...
I am currently in the process of starting to use the program... Been looking all over the Internet (Google Video/YouTube) for the setting up my database, checking connections etc...
Can someone go through the process... of setting up all the checks and using SQL,,,, I want to start creating simple select queries for Northwind...
Thanks in advance
Does anyone know how i can find out if SQL Server is installed on the current machine, and the version that is installed?
