1. The Workgroup Edition comes with Windows SBS Server/Premium. However the docs for SQL/Server 2005 say not to install it on a Domain Controller. What does this mean--buy a separate box for the SQL Server software? If so with which OS?
2. If we get Windows SBS Standard, could we just install/download SQL Express on that Server? Even if it's a Domain Controller?
2. If a client is running an app on SQL Server 7, and wants to upgrade to 2005 (3-5 simultaneous uses of a DB about 1GB), which edition should we get?
I have the SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition CD and have succesfully installed this on my desktop.
When I install this on my Laptop the version is 2000(print @@version) is only Desktop version (2gb db limit!)....
Any ideas on why the full enterprise edition is not installing on the laptop?!!
Version on my Desktop: MICROSOFT SQL SERVER 2005-9.00.1399.06 (INTEL X86) OCT 14 2005 00.33.37 1988-2005 microsoft corp enterprise edition on windows NT 5.2 (build 3790-service pack)

The Laptop spec is: Intel 1.66Ghz, 1 Gb Ram, 50 Gb HDD, Windows XP SP2
The Desktop spec is: Intel 2.8 Ghz Dual Core, 2 Gb Ram, 320 Gb HDD, Windows XP SP2
Both SQL Server 2005 versions are installed from the same CD so why would there be a difference?
I understand that you cannot have Enterprise edition on XP but it has installed on the desktop, not the laptop???
I've developed and tested an application that utilizes the standard (.SQLEXPRESS, not user instance) instance of SQL Server 2005 Express. I'd like to be able to say that my solution will operate on any of the 32-bit SQL Server editions (Express, Workgroup, Standard, Developer, Enterprise).
I've found anecdotal comments from people saying that SQL Express is a subset of the other versions. However, in order to truly validate my "any edition" claim, I need to either:
a) Install and test my solution with all editions of SQL Server, or
b) Provide a justification for saying: "If it works on SQL Express, it'll work with the other editions".
Does anyone know if there is some official documentation somewhere that affirms the functional equivalence of the editions?
Is there documentation that states that each SQL Server edition is compiled from the same codebase?
Does the x64 version of SQL Server 2005 June CTP contain 64-bit versions of the SQL Server ODBC Driver and the OLE DB Provider? I am not interested in the .NET Managed Provider here, just the legacy ODBC and OLE DB drivers, and only 64-bit versions of those.
My understanding is that at installation of all but the Express edition, there is no choice but to have VS2005 installed as well. If this is true, can VS 2005 at least be uninstalled after a different debugger is enlisted?
There are numerous posts regarding this error when installing SQL Server 2005 on Windows Vista RTM thus I am starting a new thread in order to get resolution one way or another:SQL Server Setup failed to execute a command for server configuration. The error was [SQL Native Client]Windows user or group "USERNAMESQLServer2005MSFTEUser$USERNAME$MSSQLSERVER" not found. Check the name again... The error occurs when installing SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition, SQL Server Express SP1, SQL Server Express SP2 CTR (with or without the SP2 Toolkit package installed beforehand). The error occurs with or without UAC.
The installation then fails. Please advise if you have any insights. SQL Server Express SP2 CTR was announced as a workable version for Vista... note that this is not the case.
I am attempting to insert information from Visual Web Developer 2005 using either the Gridview or Datalist controls into a SQL Server 2005 database and get stuck when defining the custom statement.When I enter the text within the insert tab, the <next> button remains greyed out, preventing me from continuing to the next page.If I copy the same text into the select tab, then I can continue with the wizard, however this raises other problems which may or may not be related (multiple insertions of the data into the SQL Server database table - possibly due to postback functions). I would rather use insert to confirm that my second problem is not because I am using the wrong option.My question is:Should I be able to use the insert function within VWD express or is this only available within the standard/pro editions?
Is it required to have all the three machines with Enterprise Editions? OR Can we install SQL Developer Edition on both DEV and TEST and have Enterprise Edition on production?
1) Which version of sql server do I need to be able to install it on my local win xp pro? At present there is no server. I guess the answer is standard edition and not the enterprise, right?
2) At present I have the enterprise edition CDs. If I install the Enterprise edition then does that mean on my xp pro I will have standard edition?
We are having 2012 Enterprise Edition,If I installed the Express Edition in other Client system is it possible to connect the Server system by using Express Edition....And Can we Connect the other server editions like Enterprise,Standard..etc by Express edition...
The advanced transforms only available with Enterprise edition:
Data Mining Training Destination Data Mining Query Component Fuzzy Grouping Fuzzy Lookup Term Extraction Term Lookup The advanced tasks only available with Enterprise edition:

Now what does all of those terminologies mean above? We are trying to determine if we need to really invest in the enterprise edition for the integration services. The information I got came from:
Hi My project is in .NET 2003 i.e. framework 1.1 and database in SQLServer 2000. But the reports have been developed using SQLServer 2005 Reporting Services. Now when I am trying to deploy them through deployment project of .NET its giving me following error:"Using other editions of SQL Server for report data sources and/or the report server database" is not supported in this edition of Reporting Services. Now I am really confused with this. Can any one please guide me regarding this ASAP. Thanks, Falguni
Hi, I need to know what is the exact difference between different Editions of SQL 7. Cost of SQL 7 Enterprise Edition is 5 times that of Developer's Edition of SQL 7. Also there is other edition called Standard Edition. At least i would like to know where can i get this information immidiately.

I am starting a class on SQL Server, and my school wants me to builddb's either on campus or remotely at my home connecting to their SQLServer Enterprise.Will I be okay to use Developer Edition at home to connect with anEnterprise-licensed SQL Server on campus, to build databases,sprocs, .net apps that connect to the database stored on my school'sserver?I would rather avoid the Express edition.thanks
hello all, has anyone attempted (or succesfully implemented) a solution using Standard Edition, **as a replacement** for Enterprise Edition, in a multi-partition environment?
I believe one can use external partitions in SSAS to draw data from SQL Server, I'm not sure if that's a feature that works with the Standard Ed. of SSAS.
Namely, I'd like to see if I can use a setup of 4 installs of SQL Server, Standard Edition, and use that as a feed data into SSAS Standard Edition, and save some money on licensing (probably at a cost of increased maintenance). I know that the Enterprise version also has some enhanced analytics functions and other cool stuff so that'll be lost as well, with this potential setup.
My inclination is that to use external/Remote Partitions one would still need to use the Enterprise Edition, making this the only choice, for large cube builds -- but I may be wrong.
We are going to use database mirroring and database snapshots for reporting. The principal server runs SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition and mirror (reporting) runs SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition (64-bit). I failed to setup database mirroring trough GUI using SQL Server Management Studio and got this error: This mirroring configuration is not supported. Because the principal server instance, <server_name>, is Standard Edition, the mirror server instance must also be Standard Edition. But when I use T-SQL commands I was able to setup database mirroring and it works OK so far. SQL BOL says that one of requirements for database mirroring is to use the same SQL Server editions but I am wondering if it works trough T-SQL why MS mention it in the requirements list, also is totally unsupported by MS?
I have been given the "Performance and Scalability Guide" for Forefront Client Security by one of our representatives from Microsoft. The document is listed as published in July 2007, so I apparently can not supply a link. The document makes a couple of hard to swallow claims, though. One of these is this:
The sizing differences between SQL Server Standard Edition and SQL Server Enterprise edition are due to the differences in the index sizes between the two editions. I have to say I do not buy this. Can anyone disillusion me, or give me a link to anything that even implies this? I have not found anything to prove or disprove this, as yet.
Another oddity in this document is that FCS will not support 64 bit SQL Server, but encourages the use of AWE and /3GB. I can not believe there are functionality differences between the two, unless their database performance is negatively impacted by the 64 bit architecture (naturally the document is silent on why they do not support 64 bit).
Anyway, the questions are does the quote above actually hold any water? And would 64 bit SQL server cause functionality problems, other than performance problems?
I have downloaded and installed VS C# Express Orcas beta 1. It appears that Express editons ov VS can only connect to SQL2005 Express and not to a high end edition which I have on my computer. In one of the Orcas forums, it was suggested that I can install SQL2005 Express side by side my high end SQL 2005. To play it safe, I wanted to get a confirmation from this forum before I do that. Is a side-by-side installation ok? thanks.
When I installed VS 2005, it installed the default version of SQL Server 2005 Express that ships with Visual Studio 2005 installer media.
How can apply SQL Server 2005 Express SP1 to update this existing instance?
Currently, if I run this query:
SELECT @@version
I get the following:
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.1399.06 (Intel X86) Oct 14 2005 00:33:37 Copyright (c) 1988-2005 Microsoft Corporation Express Edition on Windows NT 5.1 (Build 2600: Service Pack 2)
After applying SP1, I should get 9.00.2047.00.
Should I just go to this link and download & install the SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP1:
I installed Visual Studio 2005 Professional then after that was installed and running, I tried to install the the SQL Server 2005 Developer's Edition which installed but I do not get the SQL Server 2005 Studio Manager. I have remove and reinstalled but it never gets installed. Any ideas?
We have been using Sql Server 2005 Compact Edition 3.1 RDA synchronization method successfully on Sql Server 2000 database. Recently we moved the database to Sql Server 2005, sync doesn't work anymore, it just hangs on one table. On further investigation, we found out that it's the index on that table that causes this. We removed the index, it works fine. We are wondering the root cause, removing the index is not a solution for us. Any thoughts?. Thanks.
(1) I have already installed of SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition first.
(1) Can I install visual studio 2008 without the 2005 express edition of SQL server? Will be any problems because I don't have express edition of SQL server? Do I need to install the express edition of SQL server as well?
(3) How to use SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition instance on visual studio 2008?
I am trying to install SQL 2005 in a 2-node virtual Windows 2003 cluster. I set the cluster up through Virtual Server 2005 with 2 virtual nodes and one virtual domain. The nodes can connect to each other as well as the physical machine. When I try to install a fresh copy of SQL 2005 on my cluster, I get an error every time. The error stops the installation while checking system configuration after installing prerequisites. The log file entry is as follows:

I have a SQL Server 2005 evaluation that has already been installed and setup on a server. I believe it originally had a 180 day eval. There have been numerous databases and users added as well as maintenance plan created...
The eval was put on the machine as an interim solution while waiting for paper work and order processiing things to happen. All the paperwork and ordering... have been completed and I now have the real SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition license key ....
I am very new to SQL Server and need to determine ...
1. Can I update the eval copy to become permanently licensed?
2. Would I want to upgrade the eval to permanent? Will I lose any capabilities by keeping the current eval setup?
If it is reasonable to keep the eval setup
3. How do I go about entering the license key to make it permanent?
If it is necessary to install the new Standard Edition...
4. How do I install it while maintaining the already defined databases, data, users, maintenance plan...

Do you now, How can I move database with datas to release version of sql server? Procedores backup/restore can't help becouse of unsuported version database.
How do I upgrade Sql Server 2005 Express to SP2 if I also have SQL Server 2005 Enterprise SP2 already on the same box? I installed Sql Server 2005 Enterprise first, then applied SP2, then installed Visual Studio 2008 (which installed SQL Server 2005 Express).
When I try to upgrade Sql Server 2005 Express to SP2 using the special Express edition of SP2, I get an error message that says "None of the selected features can be installed". I end up having to cancel the install of SP2.
I'm left with SQL Server 2005 at level 9.0.3054 and SQL Server 2005 Express at 9.0.3042. How can I bring SQL Server Express 2005 to the same level as SQL Server 2005 Entperprise?
Hello!! How can I upgrade from SQL Server 2005 Express Edition to SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition? I see allot of example of upgrading from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005, but no example on upgrading from SQL Server 2005 Express to SQL Server 2005 Enterprise or Standard. Is this possible?
