Hi All>
I need to save the work I did during my SL Server 2005 Express evaluation which has now expired. I am afraid, very afraid of losing the databases if I uninstall the eval version and upgrade to the newest Express version. Am I ok, or am i toast ? lease clue me in- thanks!
Hi, I am runnig a system with SQL Server 2000, where I get the message (17502): SQL Server evaluation period has expired.
I have valid key for this product, can anybody tell me how to updgrade the SQL Server lisence without a new installation of SQL Server?
Cheers

Hi- I let my sql server evaluation expire and I have no access to the database now. Is there anyway I can create a new server on my old sql server 7 software and import the data? I have stored procedures that I really need to access. I see where the data files are but is there a way to get them opened by SQL Server 7 when I created it all in the latest version?
Thanks

Hi,
Today my SQL Server Express suddenly stopped working. After a few hours troubleshooting I finaly found something in the Event Viewer/Application Errors: SQL Server evaluation period has expired...Isn´t the express edition supposed to be free?.
By the way: Windows did 27 automatic updates just before this happened. Might have something to do with it.
Is there a easy way to deal with this or do I have to reinstall and just hoping that I can restore my database?
Most greateful for any answers!

I've been reading and looking over what to do for my situation for several days. I need to ask and see if I can get a clear answer.
My Scenario:
I have a SQL Server 2005 Eval installed that is currently running with live data. I need to upgrade that to a recently-purchased full version. I have several databases set up. I have ready the article 914158 that states it will fail. It's still running so I can access everything. If I restart or stop the service I'm screwed.
That do I do?
Thanks so much!
Hi
I am using .net 2005 and SQL server express edition. When I am running the application for the 1st time it gives
Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.
I am using anonymous user for personalization of web part. And my web.config looks like
<webParts>
<personalization defaultProvider="AnonProvider">
<providers>
<add name="AnonProvider" type="myControls.AnonSqlPersonalizationProvider" connectionStringName="localSQLServer" />
</providers>

Please suggest what to do?

The strange fact is, that this I got everytime I manually restart aspnet_wp.exe. After I wait some time and all works fine, and I got no exception.
I get the following error message:
SQL Exectution error,
Exectuted SQL statement: SELECT...
Source: .Net SqlClient data provider
Message: Timeout expired, timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation...
The view is operating on a table of 2mil records. The timeout occurs after 30 seconds, and none of the changes I make to the various timeout settings in the server or database seem to affect this.
When I execute the same sql statement in a query window it does complete, requiring about 40 seconds to execute.
How can I configure the view not to timeout when executing this view?
I have SQL Express installed on my desktop and want to install SQL Server Evaluation.

Hello,
Is there a way to find out many days you have left on the trial period or is there a way to find out when it was created. I get the feeling it will just not work one of these days and I'll have to figure out something on the fly.

hello,
I was storing data on sql server with license for 60 days. before license expired I did:
in enterprise man. selected DB, right click, selected All Tasks,
selected Backup. Backed up to MSSQL7BACKUP DIR using same name.
then went to other machine installed sql server and from the enterprise manager did a restore DB with "restore on existing DB" option

I guess this is likely a stupid question, but I have no time for pride riht now...
I installed the evaluation version of SQL Server 7.0 and then installed the full version over top of the evaluation version once I received it.
My problem is that now SQL Server is telling me that the evaluation period has expired! How do I get around this? I assumed that installing a full purchased version would "convert" my installation of the evaluation version to a full version, but it hasn't. Please email with any information as I am trying to track this problem down and may not have time to check back here!
Thanks,

We've been running report server 2005 for several years in development and production. I tried to move the database the other day and everything went fine, aside from creating the scheduled reports/sql jobs. Took a look at the log and it said that report server was in evaluation mode. How can I verify this information?
The version number under /ReportServer is 9.00.2047.00
But that is the same number as my development RS, which did a DB migration just fine.
It is also strange that it has continued to function for so long - if it is in fact an eval version.
Here is the log where things began to go wrong.

Hi, experts,
I found it annoying that I have not being able to put more than one conditions in the Evaluation Expression within the For Loop Containter? e.g. iCounter<N , also I want to put another condition there like IsHoliday=1. How can I achieve that?
I have tried to used the LOGICAL AND operator && to combine more than one condition, but it did not work.
Please shed me some light on that.
Thank you very much and I am looking forward to hearing from you shortly.
WIth best regards,
Yours sincerely,
Hello - I'm a CE newbie evaluating 3.5 for use in a desktop app and have sifted thru the documentation, but still looking to find if this is possible:
Insert into server2005_tbl select * from opendatasource (ce3.5 connectiondb.sdf).ce35_tbl
I've tried it with ce3.5 connection as:
('Provider=Microsoft.SQLSERVER.OLEDB.CE.3.5','data source = "C:...db.sdf"').ce35_tbl
...(and several permutations of strings I found via search) but get "invalid object name ce35_tbl". Am I doing something wrong here or is this not supported? Is there a way to accomplish this via t-sql on server2005?

I am trying to rewrite a stored procedure that right now works by string concatination.
I would like to mimic that in sql, and have therefore made something that looks like this:
Code Block
declare @guard varchar(20)
set @guard = ''
select *
from Table1
where @guard = '' or
pk in (select pk from Table2)
What I really would have liked was that the guard worked, and Table2 therefore never was searched (because of left to right evaluation), but when I look in the execution plan then I can see that Table2 is getting it's clustered index scan every time.
Does anyone have a good explanation for this, and mabye a good idea on how I can achive what I want?
I work in mssql server 2000.
This will become a recommendation for my customer; we are struggling with performance on this new install which is temporarily done with the Evaluation version and I see a Service Pack has been published. Please advise?

I'm trying to create a database for an organization for managing contact lists, and mettings with access 2007.
I've 4 tables, organization, person, meeting, participant (contains fields of person and meeting).
the PK for person is, "Fname" and "Lname", and the PK for meeting is "name of meeting" and "date of meeting".
How should I link these two tables with "participant" which has no PK, in order to avoid people to insert fields for partcipand before filling out data tables of person and meeting.

For testing purposes only, I'd like to install SQL Server 2000 Evaluation Edition on a server. From what I've read, this edition is a full Enterprise Edition, but it will expire after 160 days. But is it a full edition in the sense that users can connect to it when it's installed on a server, like if it was the Enterprise Edition? So far, I've only had it installed at local computers outside any network.

I've just installed the microsoft's evaluation version of sql 2005 at my home computer.
Now i'm trying to connect ("sql sever management studio") but i dont know the server's name nor user name. I dont rememeber ever asked to produce any during the installation.
Bottom line- the evaluation version of sql server 2005 is installed but i cannot log in. How do i get to know my user name ? server name ? What ever i try i'm announced that the present version is not working for remote connections. I try to connect from the same very machine of the sql server. What is wrong ?

Hi,
I have inherited a nice problem when starting a new role.
My SQL server has stopped and i get the 17051 error when i try to start the services, It is the evaluation copy. I do have a registered full copy on another box.
I really want to keep some of the databases i have been using in the test environment. They have not been backing up as the msdb DB became corrupt some time ago.
Is there any way i can get them moved to my other box.
CAn i reinstall SQL server (another eval copy) onto the duff box (keeping the db's) back them up and then move them
in a pickle
Cheers

hey everbody,
i'm absolutely new to any sort of data management
here it goes: suppose we store 100 .txt or .doc files in sql server and we want that none of the files data should match more than 60%: the question which arises are
1. how do we store files in ms-sql (binary format or normal text)?
2. how do we match the files?
3. what code we write in c# for this purpose?
4. has this nething to do with pattern recognition?
My request to all new n active experienced user's to participate because Plzzzzz help me?
I have the following query in a user-defined function. It accepts a single string parameter, but for the sake of simplicity, I have substituted actual strings in the query. It basically checks the passed string. If it ends with "Id", it strips off the "Id" and returns the resulting string. If it ends with "Id" followed by a digit, it strips that off and returns the string.
SELECT CASE
WHEN LEN('IncidentViolationId') > 2 AND RIGHT('IncidentViolationId', 2) = 'Id' THEN LEFT('IncidentViolationId', LEN('IncidentViolationId') - 2)
WHEN PATINDEX('%Id[0-9]', 'IncidentViolationId') > 1 THEN LEFT('IncidentViolationId', PATINDEX('%Id[0-9]', 'IncidentViolationId') - 1)
ELSE 'IncidentViolationId' END
This code has worked flawlessly for quite some time and all of a sudden I get "Invalid length parameter passed to left function". I understand why LEFT() would normally fail if I passed it a -1 for the second parameter, but in this scenario, asI understand it, it never should have reached the second WHEN condition since the first one evaluates to true. Why and why all of a sudden?
First of all, I get the following error message for one of my packages which uses user variables:
SSIS package "UsageAnalysis.dtsx" starting.

This occurs when the number of errors reaches the number specified in MaximumErrorCount. Change the MaximumErrorCount or fix the errors.
SSIS package "UsageAnalysis.dtsx" finished: Failure.
Now my package has the following variables:
GetMaxUsageID: scope package level, type string, statement SELECT MAX(UsageID) AS MaxUsageID FROM XX.XXX
MaxUsageID: scope package level, type int32, default value 0, value get assigned from the following statement executed from sql task that runs GetMaxUsageID variable as above
GetAnalysisData: scope package level, type string, Evaluate as Expression
"SELECT * FROM dbo.UsageAnalysis WHERE UsageID > " + (DT_STR, 8, 1252) @[User::MaxUsageID]
The package has worked fine until MaxUsageID value reached to 10,00,000 and since then I have been getting above mentioned error message. The problematic step is related to Data Flow task where I use GetAnalysisData. I have tried replacing user variable with literal as follows
"SELECT * FROM dbo.UsageAnalysis WHERE UsageID > 1000000"
the error message stays the same. Please note that package has worked fine before and it still works ok if I don't use user variables. Obviously, some of you would see eliminating user variables as workaround but I would appreciate if cause of that error message could be investigated.
Thanks,
Asaf
I have a stored procedure that accepts a parameter of type varchar(32). This parameter gets tested against NULL as part of an IF statement. The behavior I'm seeing is that this test never evaluates to TRUE, even in cases where NULL has been passed in as the value of the parameter.
CREATE PROCEDURE uspNewVital
@Description varchar(32),
@Type tinyint,
@DeviceType varchar(32),
@Dimension varchar(32),
@Unit varchar(32)
AS
IF (@Dimension != NULL AND @Unit != NULL)
BEGIN
RAISERROR ('You must specify either a dimension or a unit.', 15, 1) ;
RETURN 0 ;
END
IF NULL = @Dimension
BEGIN
DECLARE @UnitID AS int ;
SELECT @UnitID = ID FROM tblUnit WHERE Description=@Unit ;
IF @@ROWCOUNT = 0
BEGIN
RAISERROR ('Unit not found.', 15, 1) ;
RETURN 0 ;
END
INSERT INTO tblVitalType VALUES (@DeviceTypeID, @DatumID, NULL, @UnitID) ;
END
ELSE
BEGIN
DECLARE @DimensionID AS int ;
SELECT @DimensionID = ID FROM tblDimension WHERE Description=@Dimension ;
IF @@ROWCOUNT = 0
BEGIN
RAISERROR ('Dimension not found.', 15, 1) ;
RETURN 0 ;
END
INSERT INTO tblVitalType VALUES (@DeviceTypeID, @DatumID, @DimensionID, NULL) ;
END
GO
When I pass in a NULL for @Dimension, code execution still goes to the ELSE block.
At first I thought this might have something to do with the ANSI_NULLS option, but the database has this defaulting to OFF.
Any insights would be greatly appreciated. Thank you.
