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...
I am trying to upgrade SQL Server Express 2005 Report Server to SQL 2005 Standard and it fails with the following error:
SQL Server Setup did not have the administrator permissions required to copy a file: C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.8Reporting ServicesReportServer ssrvpolicy.config. To continue, verify that the file exists, and either grant administrator permissions to the account currently running Setup or log in with an administrator account. Then run SQL Server Setup again.
After I click OK on the message, this whole path where the upgrade is bieng installed dissapears C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.8Reporting Services. The error is a bit missleading because the file that it is trying to copy rssrvpolicy.config does appear in that upgrade folder so I am not sure why it would try to copy a file that has already been copied.
I was able to upgrade the Database Engine instance fine but can't upgrade Reporting Services due to that error. I have verified that the account that ran the setup had the administrator permissions. Your prompt reply to my question would be greatly appreciatted.
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?

I'm running SQL 2005 on a Windows 2000 server. I would like to upgrade the OS to Windows 2003 server. Is there a whitepaper with all the required steps listed?
I am currently using sql server 2000 and I have just installed sql server 2005 in a separate box that will be used as the production server so I will be upgrading to the new database server soon.
I was reading the upgrade options for this situation and one option is to detach the 2000 database, copy the mdf and log files to the new server and attach it to mssql 2005. Another option is to recreate the tables, views, etc. and export/import the data to the new server.
I would like to ask what the best option is for this situation because I am not sure what the advantages and disadvantages of just detaching/attaching and recreating the database in sql server 2005. If I just detach/attach the database, will there be any disadvantage in the performance because the database files were created in 2000 and is functioning because of backward compatibility in 2005? Would it be better to recreate the database in 2005 and import the data from 2000 so that the database would be running in a way that is designed for 2005?
I am not really sure of the differences of these upgrade options so any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
We have an extensive stress test for our OLTP application.that runs slower after upgrading to SQL Server 2005.
We have done the following:
- applied SP1 and SP2
- updated statistics (sp_updatestats)
- recompiled all stored procedures
Some behavior we notice in Perfmon over the course of the 1-hour test is:
- Average CPU Utilization is up from 22% to 32% and we're trying to figure out why
- Compilations per second are up from 200 to 250
- Recompilations per second are down from 5 to 1 (which is good).
- Memory utilization is identical.
- We see exagerated spikes in response times. The general performance
seems pretty good - but there are periodic spikes that hurt our averages.
- I examined perfmon for waits and nothing jumped out.
- A small handful of application workflows are much slower, while most are roughly identical.
I realize there could be a zillion different causes. But if anyone has experience upgrading a large OLTP solution which uses a mixture of dynamic SQL and stored procedures to SS2005 - and tuning the upgraded database - please offer any suggestions.
Our current plan includes (a) running the Best Practices analyzer which already uncovered a trace flag we may want to use since we're running on an 8-way, (b) rebuilding indexes, and (c) examine a SQL Trace this time around too since it appears the slowness is isolated to certain application workflows.
Please offer any suggestions that have worked for your team.
Thanks so much!
Mike
PS I will post all the things we end up doing in the end once we get performance equal or better - hopefully the latter!!!
Got a question about one of the results on the upgrade advisor report.
When to Fix: Before Description: Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED)) Object: SVCACCTREQ
It is looking like some type of permission problem but I cannot find anything about this specific issue.
I am running the advisor from my local machine, on which I am a local administrator, against a remote server where I am just a typical user.
Is this an error that would be corrected if I were to run the upgrade advisor logged into the server as a local administrator? I'm trying to determine whether there is anything that needs to be done with this issue.
Hello, I have sql server 2000 personal edition on my PC and I have just got a 2005 DVD. I tried to install it but it is not working. I don't know how to manage my databases. As if there is no graphical managemnt tool. The 2005 is also Personal edition. I reinstalled the sql 2000, and now I'm trying t upgrade to sql 2005, but still don't know how to do that. Please someone help me!!!!!!!!!!
Probably this question has been asked hundreds of times and yet netsearch has not generated satisfactory enough answer, at least, to me.And OK, let's assume your organization has more than 200 employees,just one measure to indicate that it's not small and data processingneeds are quite extensive (for both OLTP and OLAP).We've heard so much about concurrency support, stability andperformance. Are there any real persuasive paper out there to talkabout it? Now, let me also put it in another perspective, say, you'rea Microsoft sql server sales guy or gal for that matter for newaccounts. What you got?Thanks.
My instance of SQL Server Developer stopped working after upgrade of OS from Vista to XP. I have also installed SP1 & SP2. Still it is not working. The message that I get when I start SQL Server Management Studio is "The application cannot start."
I've inherited 6 sql server 2000 boxes. I've upgrade 3 with no trouble. now I have one that gives the message : "your upgrade is blocked because of cross-language compatibility rules. For more information about cross-language support, see the version..."
all servers are 2003, sp2. All SQL is Enterprise edition, default language is "english". even the collation order is the same. why the cross language message? Any help would be good else I'll be forced to rebuild the DB and load application again. ugly!!

I have multiple development SQL Servers running Enterprise edition that I want to upgrade for application testing before upgrading our production system. All of the servers meet the hardware and software requirements for SQL Server 2005 Enterprise edition. However, when I try to install to use the SQL Server 2005 Evaluation Edition to upgrade the servers in place, I get the blocked upgrade message: Name: Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Reason: Your upgrade is blocked. For more information about upgrade support, see the "Version and Edition Upgrades" and "Hardware and Software Requirements" topics in SQL Server 2005 Setup Help or SQL Server 2005 Books Online. Edition check: Your upgrade is blocked because of edition upgrade rules. For more information about edition upgrades, see the Version and Edition Upgrades topic in SQL Server 2005 Setup Help or SQL Server 2005 Books Online.
Can the Evaluation Edition be used to upgrade these servers or do you need the full blown version?
I have downloaded SQLServer2005SP2-KB921896-x86-ENU.exe and attempted to update to SP2 with no success.
SQL Server 2005 Developers Edition is installed on my computer as part of a Visual Studio 2005 installation.
When I try to run this package under my admin account, I get through the Feature Selection (selecting everything) to Authentication.
When I press the Test button or the Next button, I get "Your account information could not be verified. Press Ok to return to Authentication Mode screen to determine the reason for failure. For setup to verify your credentials the services must be startable, connectable, and you must be a SQL Server administrator."
The Authentication screen shows "Database Services, MSSQLSERVER, Windows, domainusername, Service Failed to Start"
I am a novice SQL Server user, Clearly I am floundering! Any observations, advice, or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I am trying to upgrade an existing SQL Server 2000(SP3) instance to 2005.

My question might be a little bit unusual, but is it possible to upgrade SQL 2005 Express (the free version of SQL) to SQL 2000 Server without any loss of functionality?
Where do I have to pay attention to when doing this?
Currently we use SQL 2K SP4 and snapshot replication with a Central Publisher with Remote Distributor toplogy.
I am looking to upgrade or migrate our SQL servers to SQL 2005 and was wondering what is the best way to do this for our replicated architecture?
Is the best way to run the SQL 2005 Upgrade on all 3 servers (publisher, distributor, subscriber) and should it automatically upgrade the servers including the replication components? Is there anything i should consider/watch out for when doing the upgrade and it involves replication (namely snapshot replication)?
I have SQL Server 2005 installed on a machine that was recently upgraded to SP2 (build 3042). The server never had the replication feature installed on it. I attempt to add replication to it and I get an error because (I think) I am installing from the initial version media (CD-ROM, build 1399) and the setup appears to want an MSI file for SP2. Any help is appreciated.
I followed the exact procedures in online help How to: Change Components in an Existing Instance of SQL Server 2005 (Setup), but after I get the Ready to Update page, I get the error box:

I would like to upgrade a production active/passive SQL Server 2000 cluster to SQL Server 2005.
I've read all of the documentation I could find, and doing an in-place upgrade seems to be the way to go. (Despite the fact it scares the hell out of me.
But throughout all the documentation, I've yet to see some simple and fairly important questions answered.
How does the process of upgrading SQL Server work when you're dealing with a cluster?
Do you upgrade one machine then the other? If so, do you upgrade the active node first, or the passive node?
What happens if you're forced to failover from one instance to the other before you've had a chance to upgrade both to 2005? In other words, you failover from 2005 to 2000. Would that even work?
What happens if your upgrades fails for some reason? Is it easy to rollback the installation? If not, will reinstalling SQL Server 2000 cause any issues? Will it remember the previous configuration and simply fix the broken install?
I'm currently upgrading from Access to Sql Server, and I have a broken query that I cannot find a fix for.
The original query:
SELECT DISTINCT DownloadedNames.*FROM DownloadedSkims INNER JOIN (DownloadedNames INNER JOIN DownloadedInfo ON DownloadedNames.DNID = DownloadedInfo.DIDnID) ON DownloadedSkims.DM_ID = DownloadedInfo.DI_DM_IDWHERE DM_ID=23 AND (dWeek BETWEEN '6/26/2006' AND '9/18/2006')ORDER BY DIID, dWeek
I get the error "Msg 145, Level 15, State 1, Line 2 ORDER BY items must appear in the select list if SELECT DISTINCT is specified" when I test the query.
If anyone knows what changes I can make to the query, you'd really be helping me out.
I tried creating an alias to the server to get it to connect to analyze the server but it will not recognize the SQL 2000 server as a valid server to analyze. I can use the alias to connect in EM or SSMS. Any ideas? The server is not clustered and is at SP4. I've connected to several others in my environment but this one is causing me grief!
I upgraded my SQL 2005 Workgroup 2005 to SP2 and subsequently could not get the SQL Server service running. Turns out this was a problem because I had created separate folders for my data and log files. The distmdl.mdf and mssqlsystemresource.mdf files were in my data folder and distmdl.ldf and mssqlsystemresource.ldf were in my log folder. During SP2 upgrade a new distmdl.ldf and mssqlsystemresource.ldf were created in my data folder. I deleted the distmdl.ldf and mssqlsystemresource.ldf files in my log folder and then moved the newly created ones in my data folder into the log folder and all is well now.
