I created a SQL 2K instance on my SQL 2005 machine. I can see the instance in my 2005 Management Studio, but I cannot see it in SQL 2K Enterprise Manager. How can I accomplish this?
The box I am trying to connect to is running two instances of SQL Server. There is a SQL Server 2005 instance which is the default. There is a SQL Server 2000 instance which is named 'SQLSERVER'. I can connect to the SQL Server 2000 instance no problem:<add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPCSQLSERVER;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" /> However, I am having trouble connecting to the Default SQL Server 2005 instance. I have tried: <add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPC;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" /> but it doesn't work. I have tried explicitly setting SQL Server 2005 to use port 1434 (as SQL Server 2000 is running on port 1433), and then used: <add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPC,1434;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" /> but this doesn't work either.
Am I mssing something here? Any help much appreciated Thanks...
I am trying to install a new SQL Server 2005 instance. When running the setup I get a warning related to "Edition Change Check" that advises me to run setup with SKUUPGRADE=1. I already have SQL 2005 with SP 1 installed. For the new instance that I am trying to install I use the SQL Server 2005 media without sp1. What do I do? Ignore the warning and at the end reapply SP1?
I just installed SQL Server Express 2005 (server) and created default instance SQLEXPRESS, so that, when I want to access in remote mode, the server conn string is: <servername>SQLEXPRESS
But I have been told there is one way to configure SQL Server so that only one instance is allowed, so you dont need to specify any. If this was true, I would only need to give 'servername' to access remotely.
Is this true? How can I achieve this? Will it be possible to doing it after having installed software, or do I have to uninstall and install it again?
Sorry if this is too basic, I am just having first contact with SQL Server
I been away fromm SQL administration for three years, back then I used sqlteam.com as a valuable resource. My question has to do with SQL 2005. Can the new version of SQL 2005 share an instance of a database (for example an instance in a SAN drive)with more then one SQL server.
We would like to install Sql 2005 Enterprise Edition (including database engine, reporting service, integration service and analysis service) as a sepearte instance on a server which already has Sql 2000 with reporting services and analysis services. We do not want to disturb the existing sql 2000 setup.
If we do that then what will happen to my earlier sql 2000 reporting service? Will it be upgraded to sql 2005 reporting service? I heard that reporting services are instance unaware application. Where will be the default reporting service database available?
Hi All, I have two drive, C and D. When first time I installed SQL Server 2005, I think that I point to C drive which is having only 10 GB, instead of drive D which has bigger space. Now, I have a problem of restoring my database due to lack of space on my C drive. Can anyone guide me to change the instance of database from drive C to drive D. TIA
I have access to a server with sql server 2005 workgroup edition. It runs an instance of sql server for this huge application we use. I would like to create a new instance of Sql server 2005 so I can play around with it and learn how to use the 2005 version. How can you create a new instance? I want this instance to run alongside the current instance. I can't find out how to do this anywhere. I'm sure it's possible though. Thanks
Followed this article to move my model and msdb databes but I think I messed up. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms345408.aspx The instance will not start because it says one of the files does not match it's primary file (not sure if it's model or msdb)
I can bring the instance up in single user mode (NET START mssqlserver /f /t3608) but when I try to do a query to re-do my alter statements, it says i can't attach because only one seesion is allowed. in 2000 i used to be able to start query analyzer without starting enterprise manager..
When i try and start with a minimal config (sqlservr -c -m) it won't start. I get an error saying that one of my files does not match it's primary file (either model or msbd don't know which) any ideas????????
I just need some information on creating the second instance in sql server 2005. In my production server we have the databases with different collation. we need to separate those two different collation databases by creating the new instance. I have to create the instance by this afternoon. I think we need to install the sql server 2005 again and select the option of named instace. As long as this is production server are databases are going to be available for the users while installing the sql server to create the different instance? Could some one please respond on this. Thanks!
I need to rebuild master on an instance of SQL 2005. The instance was installed incorrectly and would like to rebuild the instance with the proper collation. I know the command to rebuild (below), but I'm not sure what to put in for the collation. The collation needs to be:
Dictionary order, case-insensitive, uppercase preference for use with the 1252 Character set
Here is the command: setup.exe /qn INSTANCENAME=QNXT REINSTALL=SQL_Engine REBUILDDATABASE=1 SAPWD=******* SQLCOLLATION=<NewSystemCollation>
What do i place in the <NewSystemCollation> in order to get the collation above installed?
OS: Windows 2003 Server Enterprise Edition SQL Server: SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition (2 instances) SQL Server : SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition ( 1 instance)

Hello, I installed SQL 2005 Standard on the same server (2K3) with SQL 2000. My named instance I installed is coming up with "Version 8.00.2039" in the Server Management Studio and will not let me restore a database back-up I made on a 2005 development workstation (I'm assuming it's because it's trying to use the 2000 engine instead of the 2005). Is there a way I can force this instance to use the 2005 engine rather than the 2000?
I'm new to SQL Server, and have just started to work through the MS Press ADO.Net 2.0 Step-by-Step book.
In the beginning of the book, at the point where the Add Connection box comes up, it says to type in the Server Name text box, (local)SQLEXPRESS, as the book takes for granted you have SQL Express installed, and hence this is the instance name.
I have Visual Studio 2005 Professional, and SQL Server 2005 Standard installed. What would the instance of SQL Server be in this case?
i have both server instances installed on same machine, 1st is sql 2k enterprise and 2nd is sqlExpress 2005.
all was working fine till today, i renamed a catalog in the express2005 instance. the reason for this renaming was a duplicate catalog name in the 2k and in the 2005 so when i backup my dbs one is overwriting the other because of the same file name.
after this rename i started to get some errors in the application so i decided to rename it back to its original name and relocate the backup destination to other folder.
now the situation in that i cant login any more to the 2005 server, when i login to servsqlexpress2005 (via manager or via odbc) i see always the 2k server. i tried to login to any server name like .sqlexpress2005 or whatever i always get to see the 2k catalogs only.
in proccess list i see both sqlserv.exe proccesses, also in services all is working fine, i only cant access to this server in any way.
PLEASE HELP!!! should i reinstall 2005 instance? i dont wanna do that i have so much configs on it include very massive reporting services
***the more that i try to connect my 2k5 server the problem looks wierd more and more. when i connected as localhostsqlexpress2005 i succeeded... but in 2-3 minutes connection didnt turn off, but it switched to the 2k server... it looks like a major bug!!! how can connection switch himself between 2 server without even notice??
I can't get an instance of SQL Server 2005 to start using TCP/IP.
The issue is pretty basic: I have a local SQL Server 2005 that I can get to run and connect to it using Named Pipes.
The problem is that from a remote machine, although I can connect to it using Named Pipes, ASP.NET can't connect to it (when I'm in design mode, I can connect to the SQL server to configure Data Sources, but at run-time, it refuses to work).
So, I tried to switch to TCP/IP. I can't get it to work on the local machine. I get the following errors:
SQL Server could not spawn FRunCM thread. Check the SQL Server error log and the Windows event logs for information about possible related problems.
TDSSNIClient initialization failed with error 0xd, status code 0x1.
I've looked up these errors, and most of them are basic "make sure protocols are enabled, make sure VIA is disabled, etc." but those aren't it.
Hi, I have installed SQL Server 2005 Express Edition on my system. The default instance name is set as SQLEXPRESS. I want to change this to something else. Is there anyway I can do that? Thanks, pravi
I am attempting to install SQL Express 2005 on a laptop that already has MS Sql Server installed.
I downloaded the SQLEXPR_TOOLKIT.EXE from Microsoft's website and let it go through its installation routine accepting all the default answers.
When I open SQL Server Management Studio Express, I can only connect to the SQL 2000 instance. I have issued the 'SELECT @@VERSION' command, and When I try to connect to the instance COMPUTERNAMESQLEXPRESS, the following error message is displayed: Cannot connect to YOUR-F8A010A9D0SQLEXPRESS. An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure my be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error locating Server/Instance Specified) (Microsoft SQL Server)
When I go to remove SQL Express 2005 using the add/remove programs, there is a check box that says "Remove SQL Server 2005 instance components" and in the box underneath where it lists all the instances it says: "No instances have been installed"
I have installed SQL Server 2005 on two boxes and installed client tools only on my local machine. I cannot connect to either machine. I also have the "Error 26 problem - does not allow remote connection etc." Of my two remote servers, one is virtual the other is not.
I cannot establish a connection through the "Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio" tool on my local machine using: Severname: ServerNameInstanceName Authentication: Either Windows or SQL Server Eveything is enabled (TCPIP, Name Pipes), no firewall SqlBrowser is running I have SQL Server 2000 also installed on the same server machines and I am able to connect to this. I tried using IP addresses and port numbers as follows (NB ServerName implies alias or ip address) and portnumbers I have tried are 1433 and 1766:

I'm new to SQL Server and just installed VS 2005 and SQL Server 2005 Express. My question is, is there any naming rules for an instance? When I open Express Manager it is asking me to enter an Instance name. Thanks for any suggestions or help,
Hello, I am using sqlcmd for SQL server 2005. I install sql2005 with default instance name. It should be MSSQLSERVER. However, when using sqlcmd, like sqlcmd -S (local)MSSQLSERVER, it always aborts and suggests a wrong connection string. I try to find any instance name under servername, but I can't find a command argument with sqlcmd. So how can I solve the connection string problem? I can connect to the server using "sqlcmd -s (local)" though. Or, how can I find the instance name of the server? Or maybe any gramma error using sqlcmd to access instance name?
I did a backup of a SQL2000 database (named Winstis) using the 2005 management studio. I then created a blank database on my 2005 instance (named Winstis). I then tried to do a database restore to the new 2005 database. I got an error:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The backup set holds a backup of a database other than the existing 'Winstis' database. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
I even tried the option to Overwrite Existing database and I got a different error:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The operating system returned the error '32(The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.)' while attempting 'RestoreContainer::ValidateTargetForCreation' on 'D:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLData est.ldf'. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
Also the 2005 instance database is on C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataWinstis_Data.mdf
and the 2000 instance is on D:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLDataWinstis_Data.mdf
How can I accomplish getting the database from 2000 to 2005 with all tables, store procedures, and functions?
I think one of my system database files is corrupted. I did an alter database... to move my Model and MSDB and now I can only start the instance with /f /t3608
I can connect to the instance but I can't do anything I get an error that one of the database files does not match it's primary file.. I don't know if it's MSDB or MODEL but I pretty much can't do anything.
I made a backup of model and msdb before I started.. how do I go about restoring them?
We successfully installed the first INstance of SQL Server 2005 with success. NOw we are trying to install a second instance and seems to get hung up when configuring the Database Services.
Anyone run into this issue? Should we stop all services from running on the server?
This has me totally baffled. I have a default instance of SQL Server 2005 on a server and I installed a second instance on the same server. It worked fine until I rebooted the server. Now I cannot connect to the second instance. The error message mentions remote connections but I'm not trying to connect to the instance remotely. The entire error message is below. Has anyone come across this?

Cannot connect to SERVERINSTANCENAME.

I 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 currently develop/maintain VB 05' apps for PDA's and desktops. I've got a scanner app that scans labels to build/transmit orders via an HTTP byte stream. I'm currently building an inventory app that resides at the remote client (windows not web) and can eventually connect to my SQL Server @ corp. At this point SQL 2005 endpoints work on the internal network but fail to resolve remotely. I've read about connecting to a SQL Server via HTTP with ip specs embedded in the connect string but havnt been able to find an example. Outside of creating a VPN for connectivity, can anyone recommend connection ideas for my scenario? Is it true that endpoints are only recommended for intranet consumption?
