SQL 2005 SP2 Error 29506 Workaround Doesn't Work - Data On LUNs
May 13, 2008
I have had the same Error 29506 that a lot of people are having when installing SP2 for SQL 2005. I've tried the install with myself (a Domain Admin), local Administrator, cascaded full rights down the entire file system structure and still not luck. One thing I'm wondering if it is hanging me up is that all of my databases and logs are not on C:. They are on LUNS on a NetApp SAN (Data is on M: and Logs is on L:). Even the system databases (Master, Model, etc.) are on the LUNs. The error logs referenced permissions to the data directory under the default installation path on C:. Anyone else have this problem? Got a fix? I really don't want to migrate all of my data back to the local machine, apply the patch, them migrate back. Surely this SP should be able to read the data location from the SQL engine. And surely others have their databases on SANs.... I'm at a loss.
Whenever I try to install SQL Server 2005 Express Edition on my Vista Ultimate x64 platform I get error 29506. All I could find on the web was that this is probably due to an access control problem. I have tried installing it as the local administrator, as a member of domain admins, and as the domain administrator. All get the same error. My domain is a Small Business Server domain. This may be part of the problem, but I can't imagine how.
When trying to force access to the domain administrator, I also seem to get an access problem.
The UpdateTrackingCS program will call a stored procedure to get the inserted data and update other databases. And the reason to put the commit statement in sql2000 is to have sql commit the transaction, so the store procedure in UpdateTrackingCS can query thtat inserted records.
When I use the same code in SQL2005, no matter what I do the UpdateTrackingCS program cannot query the data by the UPSID. It always says record not found.
I have tried to change commit to begin trans ... commit trans. But nothing works. Please help!

I have an active x script written in vb that just counts the records in a table and fails the step if there are not enough records. It is simple and effective. But when I transfered this task to my SSIS package I get a function not found error.
I am not familiar with active x or vb script so I have no idea what is wrong. I can do without while I build the package but I need it in the end to prevent possible problems....
I have Vista Ultimate installed and within Vista .NET Framework 3.0 is installed as a part of the operating system so I can't remove 3.0 Now for MS SQL Server 2005 Express I need .NET Framework 2.0 and the SQL Server 2005 doesn't work with .NET Framework 3.0 Can't install 2.0, get the message that 3.0 is already installed. Is there another version of SQL Server that works with .NET Framework 3.0 and runs under Vista Ultimate? Please help me!!
Ok, I'm a long time reader of this forum and just about everytime I come here looking for an answer its allready been posted and answered. But I can't seem to find this one anywhere. Sorry if its allready been posted...Just point me in the right direction.
Ok, Ive been coding in VB2005 for a while but i'm new to SQL stored procedures. This is prolly going to sound stupid but I don't know where to start. Heres what I need to do.
I have a stored procedure that requires a parameter. I can pass that parameter to the stored procedure and execute it just fine. But I need the result thats returned when the stored procedure is executed. I can't seem to find anyway to return the Result back to me. DataReaders keep blowing up and I have no Idea Why????? Here is how i'm passing the param to the stored proc.
I'm running MS SQL BTW.
Dim myConnection As New SqlClient.SqlConnection("yadayada;Database=BlaBlaBla;Trusted_Connection=True;")
Dim cmd As New SqlClient.SqlCommand("NameOfStoredProc")
sqlParam.Value = Address 'declared higher up.....its just an int
myConnection.Open()
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery()
myConnection.Close()
Thats all great, but I need to read back the results the stored proc returns. If I execute this in server management studio, it returns a result. But nothing I try in my asp page works. Any help would be Great. Code samples are good too.
Hi all, We have a SQL Server 2005 64-bit, and recently I upgrade from build 3042 to 3054 and I try to do a maintenance plan for transaction logs(TL) backup, including cleanup for two days (have full backup every night).
Problem I have is that I want the TL files to dump in a different location(due to disk space), so I put in the UNC path in the "Create a backup file for every database - >Folder:\FileServerTLDBLogs"
NB: if using the local drives, it work
Check List Security: - The account that I used to create the plan is an sa account - The location that I dump the TL files, I have full access to the folder
SQL Statement: exec xp_cmdshell 'dir FileServerTLDBLogs' (it list all files)
Is this a bug for 64-bit? because I can do this on SQL Server 2005 32-bit and it's work perfectly
Been doing some research after getting this error: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '80040e14'
Cannot create a row of size 8297 which is greater than the allowable maximum of 8060.
And realised that my nice responsive varchars had a maximum total size. so I changed them for 'slower' text data types. but my DB still won't allow any more input.
has the limit been reached now regardless of what I change or can I rebuild the DB to recover the space or something?
Hi Everyone, I'm having some trouble with the below trigger. When I add a row of data either manually or using an INSERT query, it just doesn't do anything. It doesn't provide any error messages either. This makes me think that it's aborting the operation because rowsAffected are 0 or some other simple error. My row manipulation code could be suspect also. This is my first time writing a trigger or using T-SQL for that matter. What I'm trying to do is to have the trigger add +1 to the Iter field of all rows where BouleID is equal to the BouleID of the row being inserted. So let's say I have the following table:
Now, if I insert a row with BouleID = A01 and Current Location = Polishing, I want the Iter field of all previous rows to iterate by +1 and this new row to have Iter = 0.
I am using SQL Management Studio Express, and SQL Server Express.
Any thoughts on anything wrong with my selection code and iteration code? Could I adapt this to handle more than one row by using a GROUP BY BouleID somehow?
Code Block

i have created a dsn to extract data from an SQL2000 server into Excel. this all works fine. Now i have edited the data and would like to import the updated fields in my database.
There are no new fields just updated information. I have used the import wizard from SQL Enterprise manager. I have selected to delete the current table and replace is with the one ive created.
This is where the problems begin.
When i finish the wizard i get an error saying there is a conflict "collum reference constraint". wich i think has something to do that there are links to this table wich can not be simply deleted and recreated.
When I try to add a SQL Server Database as a new item into the App_Data folder of my Web Project, I get this error demanding that SQL Server Express has to be installed. That is the stupidest thing I have ever heard of. Is there some setting or something to make VS 2005 Pro work with a standard SS database? I don't want to use the express edition. I can't use SS's management studio with that.
Does Microsoft monitor this forum? I thought they were going to be taking technology forward; not backwards. I'm losing a lot of time having to install and uninstall and reinstall to get the environment into a mode that works lke I want it to work. If they didn't intend for SS standard edition to be used with VS 2005 Pro, then why did they include SS developers edition in the Pro package?
I am trying to execute an SSIS package from an MS Access 2003 database that imports a table from the Access database into a target table in SQL 2005. I saved the package in SQL 2005 and tested it out. If I run it from the Management Studio Console with Run->Execute ... everything works just fine. However, if I try to run it using the following line command "Exec master.dbo.xp_cmdshell 'DTExec /SER DATAFORCE /DTS SQL2005TestPackage /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING V'" the execution will always fail when the Access database is open (shared mode). The connection manager looks like this: "Data Source=E:Test.mdb;Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Persist Security Info=False;Jet OLEDB:Global Bulk Transactions=1". The error is listed below:
Code: 0xC0202009 Source: NewPackage Connection manager "SourceConnectionOLEDB" Description: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft JET Database Engine" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Could not use ''; file already in use.".
Maybe it worked once, but in most time it doesn't work, query like below
select top 10 * from OpenRowSet('microsoft.jet.oledb.4.0','Excel 8.0;hdr=yes;database=\ws8webablefilessitefiles4000010 eibcactive.xls', 'select * from [crap2$]')
I got error
OLE DB provider "microsoft.jet.oledb.4.0" for linked server "(null)" returned message "Unspecified error". Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "microsoft.jet.oledb.4.0" for linked server "(null)".
but the same query can run without any problem on a SQL 2000 server run on a server in the same network.

I tried Data Mining Add-Ins for Office 2007 - CTP December 2006. Test settings: Windows XP SP2 english with Italian regional settings, Office 2007 english (RTM), SQL Server 2005 Developer (with SP2 CTP Dec06) and Data Mining Add-ins for Office 2007 (CTP Dec06).
If I keep regional settings in Italian, I get error like this:
Old format or invalid type library. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80028018 (TYPE_E_INVDATAREAD))
If I change regional settings to English, the Add-in works.
I found this description as the possible cause of the problem: http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms178780(vs.80).aspx - if this is the issue, it would be necessary to change the ExcelLocale1033Attribute on the component.
Is there another workaround other than to install the Office 2007 MUI?

It's well known issue, that one can't use any dataset fields in a report header/footer directly. One of the approach is to create query-based parameter that basically equals =First(Fields!@FieldName@.Value, "@DataSetName@") and use that parameter value instead. But it doesn't work in my case!
My report displays some entity description and is parametrized with EntityID param. Its header contains entity name that, according to the approach, is queried from the data source through the EntityName report parameter. There's important issue: the report is displayed in ReportViewer control, that is embedded into my application and entity ID parameter isn't ser by user in ReportViewer parameters area. Its default value is changed by the application with SetReportParameters() web method every time a user wants to view the report according to the entity the user is exploring in the application. But after the report has been rendered, its header always contains not actual (outdated) entity name. Nevertheless, the report body contains actual data (including entity name). If I alter entity ID parameter in ReportViewer or in web-based Report Manager and refresh report, header displays correct entity name.
I tried to install this evening SQL Server Management Express on my Windows Vista 32 bit Home Premium Edition + Sql server 2005 express.
The problem is that at the end of the installation this error comes out:
"Si è verificato un errore imprevisto durante l'installazione di questo pacchetto. Probabile problema con questo pacchetto. Il codice errore è: 29506"
This problem is a bit weird but I'm just wondering if anybody else experienced this.
I have a package that has file system tasks (copying dtsx files actually). Basically the package copies other packages to a pre-defined destination. Thing is, it only works if one of the packages it is configured to copy has some sort of sensitive data (e.g., a connectionstring with a password), otherwise it reports a success message on execution but doesn't actually do anything. I've checked the forcedexecutionresult and it is set to None for that matter.
Just wondering if anybody else experienced this problem and of course if there's a way to solve it.
MSI (s) (D8!A0) [21:07:09:062]: Product: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 -- Error 29506. SQL Server Setup failed to modify security permissions on file C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLData for user Administrator. To proceed, verify that the account and domain running SQL Server Setup exist, that the account running SQL Server Setup has administrator privileges, and that exists on the destination drive.
Tried running install with a domain account and local account with same results.
Based on the error message, I checked permission on the drive and still received the same error.
Followed resolution based on KB 916766, this did not resolve the error.
Only possible resolution I found was to disable UAP, reboot and retry the install. This will be done as a last resort, but any other suggestion will be appreciated.
When i exec an sp it runs a sum, sometimes it is possible that there is a 0 value, it then returns an error Divide by zero error encountered How can i work around this error
My sp code is
CREATE proc CP_avgloss_rings @mID varchar(10), @startdate datetime, @enddate datetime as select ((sum(vtp)-(sum(moneyout)))/100) / ((sum(playtime))/ 3600) as avgloss from dbo.rings where machineID = @mID and convert(varchar,njdate,121) between convert(varchar,@startdate,121) and convert(varchar,@enddate,121) GO
I'm pretty new to DTS, so forgive me if this is basic. I created a simple DTS package to run a query and export it to a text file. I can execute the package fine from my workstation through EM, but when I try to execute the job to run the package I get this error: Error = -2147467259 (80004005) Error string: Error opening datafile: Access is denied.
I think that maybe SQL Agent doesn't have the right permissions to write to that network drive. What should the permissions be?
This is probably very simple, but I can't get passed this problem.
I have a report in MS Access that uses info generated by a query. One of the text fields in the query contains either the word 'Select' or the name of a course. The report should display a space if the value is 'Select', or the actual value of the field in any other case. The field can never contain a null value.
I've used: =IIf([optVoc1]="Select","",[optVoc1]) in the text box on the report, but this only returns #error regardless of the actual content of the field.
I create and schedule a SQL job to run every minute to update a table base on certain condition but it doesn't work. Job history says successful every time but the table doesn't get updated.
However if I move it to Query Analyzer and run it under dba, it will work. Thinking that it may have to do with the user the job run as, I then change run as user from self to dba. But still SQL job won't update my table.
Anything about user permission or security that I can check? Or it there any other possibility?
When I run the select its fine but I cannot delete..... i have done this many times and it has worked.... I cannot see the error what am i missing
select eqnow.empnumber, eqnow_names.empnumber, eqnow_names.names --delete from eqnow inner join eqnow_names on eqnow.empnumber = eqnow_names.empnumber where eqnow_names.names is null
i get this error Server: Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 4 Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'inner'.
When I try to install the problem I get the following error.
The SQL Server service failed to start. For more information, see the SQL Server Books Online topics, "How to: View SQL Server 2005 Setup Log Files" and "Starting SQL Server Manually."
The log tells me nothing useful. I can't start the thing manually because after clicking cancel on the error message, the installer proceeds to roll back the installation.

I try to copy a DB from one server to another. On the target server an older version of the DB has been deleted and I now try to attach the new version using "sp_attach_db DBname, Filelocation", but I always get an error "Device Activation error. The physical file name 'D:mssql7dataAgency_log.ldf' may be incorrect" "Database 'Agency' cannot be Created"
To me it seems that the database is looking for the log files (now deleted). I've tried forcing a new log file I created using the same locations for the mdfs. I've tried using create a new database and replace the mdf file, but nothing works.
