Can these two exist side by side? I have SQL Server 2005 (possibly installed when I installed Orcas beta 2?). Now I cannot connect to SQLEXPRESS with error Cannot Login to Default DB - error 4064. Please help!!

Hi,
I have an ASPNETDB.MDF (asp.net membership/profile db) that was generated for SQL Express, it has user information I need to keep.
I have SQLExpress and full SQL Server 2005 running on the server. I want to remove SQL Express from the server.
So can I simply do a backup of the SQL Express membership db and restore it to full SQL and change the connection string in my app or
do i need to run the membership wizard on full sql and then do the backup / restore?
Or is there another way.
Thanks
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.
Thanks in advance,
Andre Greeff
Q1: When I try to move a database (.mdf and .ldf file), developed with SQLEXPRESS on Win/XP to my SBS2003 server running with SQL SERVER 2005, I cannot attach the database on the server. Backup/Restore fails as well.
"Could not find row in in sysindexes for database ID=12...."
Could not open new database 'Test'. CREATE DATABASE is aborted (error 602).
I tried to copy an ad hoc db with only one table from the client to the server, same error. Similar procedure withs MSDE and SQL 2000 worked flawlessly. It seems there is something wrong with my SQLEXPRESS setup.
Anybody who can advice?
Q2. on the client with SQL EXPRESS, I switched on in the surface area configuration TCP and pipes; however SQL SERVER Management Studio on the server cannot connect te SQLEXPRESS engine on the client machine. Is this normal?
However from the client, SQL EXPRESS Management Studio can connect to the SQL SERVER 2005 engine.on the server.
Thanks, eric
how does one convert from sqlexpress (mdf files) to sql server 2005 and vise-versa, ie from SQL Server 2005 to SQLExpress mdf files?
View 5 Replies View RelatedWhat happens when you install a SQLEXPRESS instance on a machine that already has SQL Server 2005? Will the SQLEXPRESS still run in the limited mode or will it sense that an full standard version of SQL Server 2005 is already present and just "upgrade" itself?
On the otherhand, how do I "upgade" an existing instance of SQLEXPRESS to a full version of SQL Server 2005 standard edition without uninstalling and installing the standard edition. If I have both the instances then will the SQLEXPRESS be freed from its limits?
Thanks,

Hi all,I'm having a big problem here. I can't seem to connect to a database of MSSQL Server 2005... Here is what I've did:1. Under the Server Explorer>Data Connections. Right click and choose "Add Connection..."2. Data Source was "Microsoft SQL Server Database File". Click OK.3. I browse to the database in the MSSQL.2/MSSQL/Data folder.4. Click on the "Advanced" button, and change the default DataSource from .SQLEXPRESS to .MSSQLSERVER. Click OK5. Received this error: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 setting SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 25 - Connection string is not valid) Only .SQEXPRESS that I was able to connect to... i've tried the solution from Microsoft, opened SQL Server 2005 Surface Area Configuration and enabled "Local and remote connections", checked the option "Using both TCP/IP and named pipes" but it didn't help. This is frustrating because I can't get the Membership provider, login to work on my host. Please help. Thank you very much,Kenny.

When i tried windows authetication, it say cannot initialise SSPI package.
Hi All,
I have created an installation application which will install the application with SQL Express and .NET Framework 2.0.
If i install this application in a Fresh system(i.e which is not having SQL Express), it is installing the application with new database instance successfully.
But if i try to install the same in a system which is already having SQL Express, throwing "Object reference exception" because it is not able to create the new database instance.
Can anybody help me out .

I have installed SQL Express 2005 on a machine and I am trying to run a script file via SQLCMD from my application. I keep getting an error stating that SQLCMD can not connect to the server. Remote connections are enabled for both tcp/ip and named pipes. Sql Browser Service is enabled and running.
I am calling the script like so
sqlcmd -E -S TESTPLATFORMSQLEXPRESS -i "C:Program FilesADMS_TrialCREATE_DATABASE.sql" -o C:Error.txt
This is the error message

I can open Management studio and run the script and it works perfectly so I don't really know what is going on. Thanks for any help.

I'm rewriting an old application that has a MSDE database as backend. I'm estimating if upgrade the old db to SQL2005 or SQL2005 Express edition, so I'm trying to migrate it to different istances running on different servers. In order to manage servers, I'm using MSQL Management Studio of the SQL2005 evaluation edition. As first step, I have detached the MSDE .mdf file, and attached it to SQL Express server.
QUESTION 1: Is this the right procedure to migrate the db on SQL Express?
QUESTION 2: All seems to work, but in MSQL Management Studio if I point on a stored procedure of the migrated db in SQL Express and right-click, in the context menu doesn't appear the item: 'Execute stored procedure...'. This item instead appears also if I connect to the old MSDE database, and it's very nice during testing....
QUESTION 3: How to grant access in SQL Express server to the old users of the migrated db?
Thanks in advance.

Hi
I have started to create a databse using SQL Server Management Studio Express, just a few tables, one with data. I now want to creat a some windows forms to populate the tables. However when I try to use the Add New Data Source wizard, I get an error when I try to create the connection string, but I have managed to connect to a copy of AdventureWorks located in the same parent directory.
Error is :
Unable to open the physical file "...". Operating system error 32: "32(The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.)".
An attemp to attach an auto-named database for file ... failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share.
As I can connect to AdventureWorks, I presume Windows thinks the file is open, but I have no idea why, how to check, or how to close it.
TIA

I installed VSTS 2005 for Developers along with SQL Express and SQL Management Studio. I can't find any reference to Reporting projects anywhere. Where should that come from?
I tried installing SQL components from the SQL 2005 Standard Edition install but got a message that what I was trying to install was older than what was already installed....
Because of numerous problems trying to get sqlexpress working, I uninstalled it with the intention of reinstalling (via Add or Remove Programs). However, now when I try to reinstall it, I get a message that the I am not making a changes so it won't let me install it.
I do have sql server 2005 developer's edition installed; is that the reason? and does that mean I cannot have both installed on the same machine?
When trying to attach or detach a database, add or remove a user SSMSEE is always executing. The progress bar never stops moving nor does it display any type of progress. I have uninstalled and reinstalled SSMSEE with no luck and restarted the SQL server many, many times. I've been searching for a solution with no luck. Has anyone else experienced this issue or have a solution? I have circumvented this by attaching a DB with SQLCMD but I am trying to instruct another user on some of these functions with SSMSEE.
Thanks!
I have sqlexpress 2005 on my local machine - but my hoster has sql 2000 - so i used the DB publishing wizard to create the script and sent it over to them - they are now saying that they need a .bak file in 2000 to host my database - is this a bunch of horse hockey or not?
if this is legit - any ideas on how I can create a .bak 2000 sql from sqlexpress 2005?
many thanks

Hi
I have a problem with sqlexpress
I'm using sqlexpress 2005 with asp.net 2 and all things work in my computer good
but when i upload it on the internet in my host it return this error :
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: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)
I am using sql server locally and i'm not using it remotly
i just created a simple page (just have a detailsview) and upload it to the internet
and then upload my mdf and ldf files to the app_data folder
I am having an issue with the login time from my program to authenticate through the SQLExpress. I have the latest version and I am using for code this :
Dim cnn As New SqlConnection(Globals.m_con_str)
Dim cmd As New SqlCommand("star_login", cnn)
cnn.Open()
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@UName", txtUN.Text)
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@PWord", txtPW.Text)
Dim dr As SqlDataReader
dr = cmd.ExecuteReader()
If dr.HasRows Then
While dr.Read()
..........execution of successful login
end while
end if
If cnn.State = ConnectionState.Open Then
cnn.Close()
End If
My issue is this. Once you have done this once speed is good from there on out. After you log out of the program, the login is good. I have tried reindexing because I though this might be the issue but it did nothing.
Any help would be greatly appriciated
Hello, I had started my project with the express edition, then I switched to the pro one. The problem is that in my webconfig I still have .SQLEXPRESS and I don't know how to modify that to use the full version of Sql server. <add name="MyConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|MyDataBase.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" /> When I look at the surface area manager I can see that I have 2 instances running : MSSQLSERVER and SQLEXPRESS.When starting Sql Server Management Studio I can connect to 2 servers: NEWDELL and NEWDELLSQLEXPRESS.And when I try to replace SQLEXPRESS by MSSQLSERVER in the connectionstring, then it doesn't connect.I remember having lost connection already when playing with all these tools, so I pay attention now ! That's why any help would be really appreciated ! Thank you.
View 5 Replies View RelatedI'm brand new to web and ASP programming, but experienced with VB/VB.NET and SQL Server 2000 programming. I followed a tutorial and built a little website that lets you create a user login, login and change your password. I built this in Visual Studio 2005 using VB code and my understanding is that the site uses a SQLExpress database. There's an aspnetdb.mdf and .ldf file in the App_Data folder.
I want to deploy the website to a web server that is hosting SQL Server 2005, not express. Can someone be explicit about steps to take in order to do that? I've been trying a number of things in the web.config file, but I cannot seem to make a connectionstring that works. I also don't know what to do with the .mdf and .ldf files from the development server--I'm thinking they should not be deployed. Thanks for anything.
