When I was setting up my new SQL server I entered the CD-KEY off of the wrong license. I don't want to have to uninstall everything to reinstall it with the new CD-KEY.
Is there a way to change the CD-KEY after installation?

Hi, I attended the Technet Ready to Launch event and obtained the dvd set, but when I tried to install the sql product, the software won't take the product key (the key is the same as the studio product). Anyone experience the same?
I have a customer, Customer who has purchased SQL Server Standard Edition 2005 via Open License Agreement. The product key is not available with the media.
I checked with eOpen team and confirmed that SQL 2005 does not require product key or Volume License Key for installation.
however, according to the VKB article 331355 titled "eOpen License Web Site" under "Exceptions" it is mentioned as:
SQL Server: The product key is distributed with the media. If the customer did not get a product key with the media, refer them to their reseller. The product key is hidden between two shrink-wrapped CDs.
I am trying to get SQL Express 2005 installed, I have tried this on two PC's within the Domain. Both get the same error. I am the Admin, MCSE since 1999, but I DO NOT know much about SQL.

The PC will load SQL 2005 (full version) and 2000, but the app doesnt seem to want anything but the Express version... any ideas would help...

I am using MS Access 2003 SP2 to maintain some data tables. I use SSIS to transfer them to SQL Server 2005, Enterprise Edition.
When I run the SSIS package from within Visual Studio 2005, the package runs without error.
When I try to run the same SSIS package by double-clicking on it in my File System (which invokes the Execute Package Utility, Version: 1.0) none of the tables get copied. Instead all I receive is a message for each table,
Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_PRODUCTLEVELTOLOW. The product level is insufficient for component "Data Conversion 1" (49).
The only data conversion I perform is double-byte characters to single-byte characters.
Bob Bojanic, MSFT, made a few suggestions about this in another thread -- but I have created this new thread to help focus on this specific issue. In particular, he asked if we have installed the complete SSIS support for SQL Server 2005, Enterprise Edition, and my network support and database support staff assure me that such complete SSIS support was installed.
Are others having this problem?
Dan
(I just took a look at some of the transformations in the Data Conversion task, and many of them are using an Output Alias identical to the Input Column name. Might that be causing the problem? I will try changing the Output Alias for some tables and see if they then transfer correctly. The "identical name" Output Alias values were created by the Migration Wizard for a DTS 2000 package.)
While I am trying to install SQL server 2005 I get the following message - "Machine does not have a product that matches the installation package". The installation does not occur.

Hello I installed MS SQl 2005 the eval version and it has expired. I have bought a copy now and i need to put the product keys in without having to reinstall the program. Is there anyway i can do this with having to reinstall SQl again.. Any help would be great
I want to upgrade 5 SQL Server 6.5 production boxes to SQL Server 7. I got SQL Server 7.0 pricing and licensing list from www.microsoft.com/sql/70/gen/pricing.htm and I think I should buy 5 SQL Server 7.0 Combined Product/Version/Competitive Upgrade (Since I have been using SQL Server 6.5, I don’t need to buy the full product. Is this right?). I am not sure if the upgrade offer (the price is much lower than the full product offer $699/$1399) includes the SQL Server 7.0 both software and access license.
To retrieve all products of type 'A', one must know the table name, in this case 'productA'.
Here is one method.
Create a table that contains the table name that corresponds to each product type, thus the stored procedure only needs to recieve the type_id which can be used to obtain the name of the respective table.
I am installing SQL Server x64 on a new server, and I was told to use the same license key we have for the other servers... but no one seems to know where it is. Is there any way I could see the license key for one of the working boxes so I could put it on the new one?
Does anyone know of a SQL Server product that would let me do the following?Connect to the instanceConfigure thresholds like,1.Show databases not backed up in the last X days2. Show databases that are full that have logs not backed up in the lastx days/hours.3. Show jobs that have failed in the last x days.I would then like to click a process button and have it bring back anythingthat is outside those thresholds?, any thing like that in a windowsapplication?
I have a field with numbers (double datatype) as values and I want a aggregate function that gives me the product of all the values in that field. Is there a way to do that in SSRS?
How can the licensing product key with which SQL Server is installed be replaced/updated? If this is possible, will the same procedure apply both to SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005?
We are building a system that has mobile clients (laptop with XP and tablet with XP). These clients have data moving back and forth to a centralised n-tier server based system. The communications is proprietory and are very low bandwidth (5 KByte/sec).
We've decided that the best approach to handling both the reference data (ranging from trivial to a complex list of items - about 2 million rows) and the day-to-day operational data is with a database product rather than attempting to handle it ourselves within code.
The question is - what SQL platform to use? SQL Everywhere seems to be a fairly good choice except that it does not seem to support stored procedures. SQL Express is another possibility but there are concerns about the size of the footprint and managing the database engine and the database itself.
The users of the mobile client are considered computer illiterate and would not be able to manage any database administrative tasks. They only come back to base every three to six months. History has shown remote management of the machine has proven difficult (if not impossible) via the low bandwidth connection.
The machines have 512MB of RAM and only 40GB of disk. They have to support XP, Office, our client, and our GIS client. What is the best answer?
I have a search box on my website which is used to search the products database. I will be using the search text in an SQL stored procedure that uses LIKE statements. The search string could realistically contain any character. How do I prevent SQL injection when any search string is reasonably feasible? .
I know "select distinct ProductId from Product " selects one product only one time how can i apply the same logic in a query like give bellow SELECT I.QuoteRequestItemId, I.ProductId ,P.StorePartNumber from QuoteRequestItem I left join Product P on I.ProductId = P.ProductId ie product with same productId should be considered only oncethere should not be more than one row with same productId
I have a SQL statement with two left outer joins which connects 3 tables. Vendors, Tracking & Activity. For whatever reason, even though each is a one-to-many relationship, I am able to join 2 tables (from Vendors to Tracking) without an issue. when I then join Activity, I get a Cartesian product.I suspected that 'DISTINCT'.
SELECT DISTINCT CASE WHEN `vendor`.`companyname` IS NULL then 'No Company Assigned' ELSE `vendor`.`companyname` END AS companyNameSQL, `tracking`.`pkgTracking`, CASE
I have a table with product_name and introduction_date(when the product was first introduced)as columns. now i wana calculate average as below
if item is sold in previous business year(suppose 2011-12) then avg should be avg price in businessyear(2010-11), if it is newly introduced(suppose 2013-14)then avg should be of current year(2013-14).
I want to get a list of any Categories where ALL the products in that Category are not published (Published = 0). (I want to get the Categories where no products are listed for it). Here are the tables, not sure where to begin :
SELECT [Id], Published FROM Product WHERE Published = 0
SELECT [Id] ,[Name] FROM Category
SELECT [Id] ,[ProductId] ,[CategoryId] FROM Product_Category_Mapping
Steve writes "Probably not a tough question if I wasn't a newbie:
I have two copies of MSSQL 2005 standard edition, intended for installation on a dual proc db server. The server is physically placed in a remote hosting service.
Since I need to install remotely, it's non-trivial how to get the bits over there. I could fed-ex the CDs to the hosting service and have them feed the machine.
However they suggested that they simply use their MSDN version, which I accepted.
But it turns out the MSDN version setup has a pre-populated product key, and does not allow me to entire my own product key(s).
So the questions:
1) besides the product key thing, is there any difference between the MSDN version and the retail version? 2) does it matter that I enter my product key(s) during installation, or do I need to simply posess the keys to be legit? 3) On a dual-proc system, must two keys entered to activate operation on each processor?
So in general, I'm confused as to the technical dependence of installation on the product keys. After $12k I kinda want to use them."
Hi,I've run into a bit of a sticky design issue. We have products inthree categories which I will call 'A', 'B' and 'C'. We have "kits"which contain three products, one from each category.Below is some sample SQL to set things up, but I need to ensure thateach kit gets three products -- one from each category. Obviously,this basic SQL doesn't allow that. Any suggestions? Do I need adifferent schema design, or is there something else I should belooking at?Cheers,CurtisCREATE TABLE category (id int identity primary key,name varchar(30));CREATE TABLE products (id int identity primary key,name varchar(30),category_id int references category(id));CREATE TABLE kits (id int identity primary key,name varchar(30));CREATE TABLE kit_products (kit_id int references kits(id),product_id int references products(id));
http://www.microsoft.com/sql/editions/compact/sscecomparison.mspx The above link says the pros and cons of two SQL Server 2005 editions. Document says Compact Edition is not good for €˜When you need a multi-user database server €™. What is the meaning of multi-user database? Does this means the database strictly will not support two database connections at a time? -Thank you, Gish
