SQL Server 2005 Workgroup - No Local Publication Tab
Oct 26, 2007
Hi
I've recently gone through installing and setting up merge replication on Server 2005 Standard. All working.
I am now setting up a different box with SQL 2005 Workgroup with SP2. When I go to the Replication tab in Management Studio there is only Local Subscriptions - No Local Publications.
I've re-run the installation but I can't see how Publications is not getting installed orwhy it is missing.
Hi, everyone, I am new in SQL server 2005. I had setup SQL server 2005 P2P replication. Somehow it did not work one of two way replication. I tried to delete the publication. However I could not do it. have the same problem. When I tried to delete the publication, I got the publication " " does not exist.[SQL server error: 20026]. I tried to use sp_droppublication, it gave me error "the database is not enabled for publication". Nevertheless, I can see the publication in MS SQL Management Studio and Publication monitor with OK status. I could not find the distribution database either.
Could you anyone has ideas to delete this publication? I am sorry I am not a programmer. Please give me more detail explanation if you can. Thanks.
HI All, After i installed SQL Server 2005 workgroups edition to my Laptop, P4 and 1 Giga memory.

Thank You
We have developed an application using VS 2005 and SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition.
Currently, our client is asking if they could buy the SQL Server 2005 Workgroup Edition.
Is it ok? I'm afraid that the SP we made using CLR and any other functionality might not work.
We are suggesting our client to use the SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition instead. But for them to save money, can they use the Workgroup Edition instead?
I am trying to install the SQL Sever 2005 Workgroup Edition software that came with our Small Business Server 2003 R2 system. I would like to install to the d: drive because space on the c: drive is limited. Can I do that? If so, how?
I made an analysis services project but I can't deploy it because it can't find the server I search for the analysis service in the Service Control Manager but I can't find it. Is it possible to download and install it with this version of sql server (workgroup) ?
I am new to SQL Server and I am trying to install SQL Server 2005 Express or Stnadard Edition on a computer runing XP pro on a XP's workgroup network using a router. Can I access the the database from another computer running XP pro on the same network? If I can, what setting do I need when installing SQL 2005 in order to do this?
We have only a small busines and haven't got too much experience with servers and now have a proliant server coming in with SBS 2003 R2 Premium with the 4 GB max memory that SBS 2003 can handle according to the specs.
We weren't planning on using the SQL 2005 worlgroup edition up till now, but now we might. According to the specs of SQL server 2005 workgroup edition however, it has a max RAM of 3GB!
Is this going to be a problem and should we keep using our previous DB, or can we migrate toward SQL server with the 4 GB of RAM?
I have an SBS 2003 server that is running SQL 2000 standard edition which was recently upgraded to Small Business Server 2003 R2.
I have installed SQL 2005 workgroup edition on the SBS 2003 R2 server which acts both as an AD server and Exchange server. I installed SQL 2005 for the purpose of using SQL 2005 for my sharepoint services on the Small Business Server R2.
Now I have SQL 2000 and SQL 2005 workgroup edition installed, but I'm unsure whether I can uninstall the SQL 2000 and how to know whether the sharepoint instance is running in SQL 2005 or SQL 2000?
Additionally, I have some MSDE's running for WSUS and Server Reporting which are installed by the Small Business Server installation.
Which tools should I use to become familiar with identifying the databases and which version of the database engine is used for which database regardless of whether it is a SQL instance or a MSDE instance.
How can I identify which SQL versions are not in use and whether I can uninstall if not needed.
In MSDE sql server 2000 dtsrun was available to execute the dts packages but now with sql server 2005 express edition integration service is not part of express/workgroup edition and the dtsexec run time is also not available.
I've heard that the Standard version supports the use of CommandNotification and that the Express version does not. What about the Workgroup edition? The reason I'm asking is because there is a substantial monthly difference in cost between the two versions if I were to have my site hosted. I've been developing with MS SQL 2005 Express so obviously I have not tested this caching feature. Are command notifications reliable? On paper, it sounds impressive and extremely efficient especially if a site is to have heavy traffic and you can't afford the overhead of heavy database processing that is useless if the data is unchanged. Does the Workgroup edition support automatic change notifications? Have automatic notifications been proven reliable and vastly more efficient than crude polling methods? Thanks in advance.
A client of mine was using SQL Express and soon realised this doesn't meet his needs performance or database size wise. He also realised that SQL Server 2005 Workgroup came free with his R2 version of SBS.
So in essence, I have been trying to find the Microsoft recommended way to upgrade from Express to Workgroup. I have not been able to find a step-by-step guide and to add to my confusion, when I run the work-group installer it tells me to run the installer with a switch which I have gone ahead and done but when selecting components it has all of them defaulted to blanked out.
Surely the process for an in-place upgrade should not be so technical as I am finding it ? To my mind, the natural progression would be to upgrade express to a better capable version of 2005 and should be as easy as pie.
Anyway, I am basically looking for a step-by-step guide on how to upgrade to get it done right the first time as opposed to upgrading and than realised some remenants of Express are still larking about causing trouble.
I found a bug in Management Studio, which can be reproduced with following steps:
1. Create a new publication with the 'New Publication Wizard' 2. Select a database which contains at least 2 tables. 3. Select 'transactional publicatioon' 4. Select at least 2 tables as articles 5. Set article properties for all table articles 6. Change 'Statement Delivery' to 'Insert statement', 'Update statement' and 'Delete statement' and save the article properties. 7. If you now check the properties for a single article you find that the 'Statement Delivery' is set to 'Do not replicate...'. If you generate this publication and create a subscritpion you will see, that actual no replication take place.
It took me a while to find out why my replication doesn't work! :-((
Subscription to "Transactional Publication with Updateable Subscriptions" works only one way. Changes take effect on subscriber, but the subcriber is unable to update data on publisher.
I have Sanpshot Agent process running under SQL Server Agent service account with login 'sa.' All agents are running at the Distributor (Publishing Server.)
The subscriber is unable to connect to the Distributor using the SQL Server login.
Following is the error message I get:
Creating Subscription(s)...
- Creating subscription for 'SQL3' (Warning)
Messages
Unable to set the Publisher login for the updatable subscription. You may have to set this up directly on the Subscriber machine using sp_link_publication. (New Subscription Wizard)
First of all; My Oracle publication works fine when I don't explicit specify the shema_option parameter for the articles I'm adding to the publication. The reason why I then want to explicit specify the parameter is as following.
I'm developing a replication solution to get data from our production server (Oracle) to our Data Warehouse (SQL Server). The SQL Server (and the Data Warehouse code) uses the SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS collation. When I don't explicit specify the schema_option, the nvarchar columns of the replicated tables are created using the SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS collation and this results in some comparison errors, when for instance a select statement is trying to compare two nvarchar strings using different collations.
I've tried to specify the schema_option parameter as "@schema_option = 0x80" (Replicates primary key constraints.) to avoid the use of the SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS collation when creating the destination tables - I'm not sure it's enough? No matter what, I'm getting an error when I'm doing it (see below).
Message 2006-07-13 12:00:15.529 Applied script 'ITEMTRANSLATION_2.sch' 2006-07-13 12:00:15.544 Bulk copying data into table 'ITEMTRANSLATION' 2006-07-13 12:00:15.544 Agent message code 20037. The process could not bulk copy into table '"ITEMTRANSLATION"'. 2006-07-13 12:00:15.591 Category:NULL Source: Microsoft SQL Native Client Number: 208 Message: Invalid object name 'ITEMTRANSLATION'. 2006-07-13 12:00:15.591 Category:NULL Source: Number: 20253
The questions are now whether I actually have a schema_option alternative for Oracle Publishing? If so, what is the solution, and eventually how can I avoid the error stated above?
If I'm not able to avoid the article columns getting created with the "wrong" collation, is there then any other obviously solution to the problem?
I have a VERY Legitmate use to install sql 4 workgroups on a pc without licensing it. I am making a disk image for MANY pcs to be imaged and load licensing after the imaging is completed.
I have been able to do this with Windows XP Professional, MS Office 2003 and a couple non-Ms programs. The information for MS software even came from their KB, so I know what I am doing is legit. I just can't find any information on doing this for my sql app.
I'd like to upgrade from my current SQL Server version: 09.00.3042 (Workgroup edition that comes with SBS upgrade) to the standard edition that I've just purchased. I've attempted to run setup.exe SKUUPGRADE=1 from the command prompt and it just tells me that there's nothing new to install.
I don't really want to uninstall the current installation just to do something that shouldn't be complicated to do, upgrading software versions should not be a difficult process.
I have been creating applications using SQL Express and uploading them to my hoster. No problems there. Now, I feel I'm ready to the next step and would like to start using my hoster SQL Server. I have created a database in their server, now how do I move my created SQL Express Database to their regular SQL Server? Is there a way to run a tool against my local DB and create a script to run in my hoster? What is the best practise here? Your help is appreciated.
I would like to ask regarding sa performance difference between the two version of SQL 2005. Which is better the SQL 2005 workgroup or the standard edition..?
I am a very beginner in setting sql server 2005. I was not sure if sql 2005 workgroup edition supported online database when I compared on MSN comparison chart. Does workgroup edition only work in local computers? Can I install 2005 workgroup edition on a windows server and run a business website requiring database?Thanks in advance.
I need to run a trace on a SQL 2005 Workgroup Edition. Profiler is onlyavailable in Standard and Enterprise?SQL 2005 BOL refers to serveral SPs and functions for tracing but I don'thave those in my workgroup edition.Any other options? Can I connect a SQL 2000 Profiler to 2005?Thanks.

I have licensed a german version of sbs 2003 premium. With the upgrade to sbs 2003 r2, I will buy the rights to use the sql 2005 workgroup edition. But the german sbs 2003 r2 is not available by now.
I could go in production with the sql 2005 trial, this is an entreprise edition.
My question is : can I downgrade the sql server 2005 from this trial edition (entreprise) to the workgroup edition ? Is it possible ? easy ? any recommendations ?
i have no idea what i am doing here and could use some help from someone who knows what they are doing.
i have a proliant ml350 g3 server running windows 2003 server with sql express 2005 software.
all the databases are running in compatibility sql 7 mode.
I would like them to be in sql 2005 mode if possible. Is there a way to upgrade the databases in the process?
here's a plan I came up with:
take sql workgroup 2005 edition evaluation, install it on a machine.
Mount all databases on the machine.
Wipe out the sql express 2005 machine, reinstall workgroup edition on the new server.
but here is my question
is there a way to migrate the data from the workgroup edition over to the new server through a DTS copy process, and if so, will it create a new version of the databases with the proper collation or the proper english?
please let me know. if this works, i will be thrilled!
During my install of SQL Server 2005 Developers edition, I got an error that Reporting Services could not connect to SQL Server. After completing the installation I was unable to connect to the local service using an domain account (that's an admin on my machine) or the SA account. I've retried uninstalling and reinstalling numereous times and no success. I was able to login to the IP addess with the SA account only.
I did set the config for remote access...
Shared Memory is Enabled
Named Pipes is Enabled with Pipe Name = \.pipesqlquery
TCP/IP is Enabled, Listen All, IP Address active and enabled for 127.0.0.1 and network address, TCP Dynamic ports not set
When I login with an IP address and an local admin account I get this error:
Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 18452)
When I try to login to the machine name with a local admin account I get this message:
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 10061)
When I try to login to the machine name with the SA account I get this message:
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 10061)
I can login with the SA account using the IP address. I can login with a local admin account for 127.0.0.1
Any ideas what's going on? Why doesn't uninstalling and reinstallingh fix this? Is there a tool that will purge the registry of all remnants after an uninstall? Any help would be appreciated.
Good day, my apologies if thes question has been asked before, but I can't find anything with the exact same situation...
Just managed to successfully install SQL Express 2005 (in place of MSDE2000), kept the same database, which upgraded without a problem. I can connect to my local SQL server, but only if I use my full PC name, I get 'SQL server not found out access denied' and 'Specified SQL server not found' whenever I try with . or (local) or localhost.
My main issue is that I have a million and one batch files for all the features I use most to simplify my work, which now will not run as they all specify (local) instead of my PC name. Looking on the MS Support pages, I've tried various different options, none of which seem to make any difference at all.
Here is my current setup:
SQL Express 2005 - version 9.00.2047.00 - (installed with 'Default Instance', not 'Instance: SQLExpress') Win XP Pro SP3 - version 3264 All of the following are enabled in 'SQL Server Config Manager' - Protocols for MSSQLSERVER: Shared Memory Named Pipes TCP/IP VIA
I also attempted to install the latest MDAC (version 2.8), and it tells me these components are already part of SP2.
Could anybody tell me if I am missing something, or need to install / update anything further? I am at a dead end with this now.
I installed 2005 Developer edition on a local workstation in our lab. I can connect to a network SQL Server with it just fine. But I do not have a local instance of SQL Server on this workstation.
How do I create a local instance of SQL Server? (box is WinXPPro-SP3)
After accepting the defaults for this installation, I noticed that there were no "local" instances of SQL server available, whereby I could go out and create my own test databases locally or copy a few tables from a production server over to my local box for testing. I'm looking through the books online and do not see (maybe I missed it) the steps to creating a local instance for setting up a workstaiton as a 'test' environment.
