SQL Browser could not be started. Reason: SQL Browser could not be started. Reason:Service 'SQLBROWSER' start request failed.
SQL Server Browser configuration for feature 'SQL_Browser_Redist_SqlBrowser_Cpu32' was cancelled by user after a previous installation failure. The last attempted step: Starting the SQL Server Browser service 'SQLBrowser', and waiting for up to '900' seconds for the process to complete.
This is SQL Server 2008R2. On the SQL Server Configuration I'm unable to see SQL Server Browser. But when I check the services I can see the SQL Browser running.
Under SQL Server Configuration Manager > SQL Server Services
1. Full text 2. SQL Server (Default) 3. SQL Agent (Default)
But I'm unable to see the SQL Browser services here. What is the remedy?
Hello there, We have a Windows Server 2003 where SQL Server 2005 is installed. The problem is that SQL Server browser cannot be started. When I try to connect to any instance of SQL Server, the connection fails. I have to try to start SQL Server browser and try to connect again to the particular instance of SQL Server after each attempt to start the browser. I succeed after several such attempts to connect, but SQL Server browser will still not start. Can anyone tell me what can be wrong with SQL Server browser? Thanks in advance Hemant
It cause both instances on the server get restarted itself, did a search on the net and not much luck with it. Got some people saying its because of the clsuter admin can't query SQL and it just fail itself. And its using Name pipe rather then TCP/IP, so by putting an alias there will get the problem solved. But I would like to be sure. Does anyone have that issue before? And found a solution? Thanks
I need some help please. My MSDE database won't start after a reboot. This is a SurfControl MSDE database. It wasn't too healthy yesterday when the log on the SurfControl MSDE database filled so I truncated it and shrunk the file. Everything was cool until I rebooted the server today:-(
Trying to start the service it says "the system cannot find the file specified" - ok to that and it says "An error 2 (the system cannot find the file specified" occured while performing this service operation on the mssqlserver service "
sqlserver.exe -c -f gets this result

Does SQL Server have a session browser similar to Oracle and if so, how can I use it? I am looking to retrieve the SQL being ran when users are running particular reports from a gui tool.
I installed SQL Server 2008 Express lastnight, and the server is running but I am unable to get Server Broswer, or Server Agent to start, when either is tried I get the following error:WMI Provider error.The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it.
I use SQL Server 2005 for multi-user access. In the Surface Area Configuration, I changed the protocol from TCP/IP to Named Pipes and restarted the service. Then I went to SQL Server Browser, stopped it and clicked on Start to restart. I am getting a message "An error occurred while performing this operation". I am not able to get the Browser started.
I'm at a complete loss as to how to use databases in ASP.NET. Everything seems to be set up for SQL Express, but I need to use SQL Server 2005. The SQL Server is not located on the same machine as the website. Then there are the databases I can create through Visual Studio 2005, what exactly are these? Are these local, are these via SQL Express, or do these somehow link to the database server? What does it mean to attach and detach? There are a lot of pieces here, and I don't know how they fit together. First, can someone help me with an overview of how all this fits together? Second, how can I use SQL Server 2005, and not SQL Server Express for my data and for membership, personalization, profiles, etc.? Finally, should I be able to connect to the remote SQL Server database from my home development machine? Do I need to use IIS to do this? Thanks in advance for your help, Diane
Hi there, Can anyone suggest me any other way to start NT servies like starting the services from command prompt. Problem faced: We have Oracle running under Windows NT. Some times when we stop the Oracle server, we need to start the server twice through window menu. However, we are able to start the server only once through command prompt. Is this known problem? Any permanent solutions to this? Any recommendations/suggestions.. thank you. regards, Nana
I have recently upgraded to VS 2005, .NET 2.0, and SQL Server 2005 and am trying to upgrade some of my older Pocket PC 2003 apps. I am trying to educate myself but have become a bit confused about how to proceed and was hoping some of the knowledgable people in this group could point me in the right direction.
I have developed several data collection applications that used Pocket Access on the device and very easily sychronized with a custom MS Access database via Active Sync. I am slowly coming to the realization that using SQL Server Mobile will NEVER be that easy (which is a shame). My questions are......
1. If I want to upgrade to SQL Server Mobile, is there any way that I can continue to easily "synchronize" my data with a MS Access database? If so, any suggestion/links as to how to do this would be greatly appreciated!
2. If the above scenario is not possible, what is the best solution for me to create a distributable application that synchronizes into a local database on a computer that DOES NOT have SQL Server installed?
3.) Related to above, is creating a distributable SQL Server Express database the answer? Can I use the built in SQL Server synchronization tools via this scenario?
Well, its a bit embarrasing to have to ask such ignorant questions, but......
I've been using Oracle for a long time. And VERY occasionally I dabbled just a bit into SQL Server 2000.......
I now would like to create a database driven web application, so I downloaded the Express set. And the books online, in the hope they'd be well organized and provide simple straightforward information on how to do things.... If its there, I'm not finding it. First question: Is there SOMEWHERE online tutorial/information on specifically how to do things? Something for a user familiar with relational databases and design and such, but needing to understand specifically how THIS database product works?
For example, I managed to get the management studio express open. And in "Registered Servers" there's something called Database Engine, within which there's serversqlexpress. Can I create an instance (or whatever it is in the MS world) OTHER than sqlexpress, and do I need to? I ask because it appears sqlexpress is on my "C" drive, and I don't want it there... There appear to be system databases within sqlexpress, and I presume they'll grow... SO, do I need to get all this off to another disk? And, if so, how? Feel free to point me to the right documentation - I tried the SQL Server 2005 Tutorials, but after going through the "lesson" on SQL Server Management Studio I realized it was geared toward "how to open a window" rather than how to actually do anything... I found another topic in here that pointed to the "Getting Started White Paper", but that doesn't appear to be valid any more. It also pointed to the "Management Studio Express Primer" but that link just throws a 404 error...
And what on earth does the SQL Server Configuration Manager do? I've gotta be missing something that's obvious to the informed observer...
I was trying to start the SQL Server Browser service but to no avail. I got the error message from WMI Provider Error and the following is the description of it
"The service cannot be started, either because it is disabled or because it has no enabled devices associated with it. [0x80070422]"
By the way, this is for SQL Server 2005 Express Edition running on XP Pro.
I am using SQL Server Express to connect to the network using VPN on a local machine. I have done the following..
a.) Enabled the remote connections for the Express Instance and rebooted the machine.
b.) Connected to the machine with Express Edition locally and can also connect other SQL Server instances from it to verify connectivity.
c.) Yes, SQL Browser Service is running.
d.) Firewall is not turned on, so I do not have to configure any exceptions.
Now here is the big problem: When I browse for SQL Servers on the network the machine does not show up on the list, i.e "macinenameSQLExpress". I had uninstalled and reinstalled the Express edition and rebooted the machine several times with no luck on the SQL Express Instance showing up on the browser list. I even changed the default instance name to "machinenameMACHINE1" on one of the reinstalls. However, I can connect to other SQL Instances from it. But, I cannot connect to it from other machines since its not registered on the network. I have been working on this for the past few days by looking for a solution via this and other forumns. Is there some setting somewhere that I am missing that prevents this instance from not showing up on the browser list. This issue with SQL Express Edition is baffling as well as frustrating and any ideas that can resolve this issue is very much appreciated.
get a prompt up (in a program like telnet / msdos window) so that I can run sql commands on my webmatrix accounts sql server. I've been trying to connect using telnet but i think maybe I've got the wrong end of the stick or I'm doing something wrong.
here's a link where you click through "how to connect" on the "myserver page" I searched the page for "connect" and found 0 occurances.
I am looking for a resource that will speak to the process of how to create a SQL Express database within VS 2005 - create relationships within the Database Diagrams (right now it complains that it does not have a valid dbo user and that I do not have permission impersonate the dbo user - if i tel it to grant me access it gives me the same message) - what security issues need to be considered as far as the SQL Express stuff is concerned. I am also wanting to know what pieces I need to have on my Internet and Intranet web servers so that when I delpoy my .net 2.0 app that the servers will be able to deal with the SQL Express database that gets copied out there? Should SQL Express on the web server be set to windows auth or mixed mode auth? If I choose windows auth does that mean that the ISP (internet server) has to have an NT account created for my web app so that I can connect to the SQL mdf? I guess I am just kinda struggling with the process from creation of the database to making sure that when I deploy the application that it will be available. Any help would be appreciated!Thanks,Derek
I downloaded VS studio express, and created a personal website using the wizard to test drive the thing. When I hit ctr + f5 to run the sample provided, then 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: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) "
I tried disabling the firewall (Norton's firewall because Windows is disable always). Any suggestions? This is a brand-new machine, running XP sp2, just downloaded the VS studio express.
SQL Server Browser listens on a UDP port and accepts unauthenticated requests using SQL Server Resolution Protocol (SSRP). SQL Server Browser should be run in the security context of a low-privileged user to minimize exposure to a malicious attack. By default, SQL Server Browser starts using the Local System account. The logon account can be changed by using the Windows Services program. The minimum user rights for SQL Server Browser are as follows:
* Deny access to this computer from the network. * Deny logon locally. * Deny logon as a batch job. * Deny logon through Terminal Services. * Log on as a service. * Read and write the SQL Server registry keys related to network communication (ports and pipes).
In our case the SQL Server Browser service is running under the same Windows account as our other SQL Server services. Do you recommend creating a separate Windows account for the SQL Server Browser service as described above?
Can you help me understand how an attack can occur?
I have been running SQL Server 2005 Express with the Management Studio Express. I just downloaded and installed the Eval (Trial) version of SQL Server 2005 but have not been able to get it working. Here are a couple of questions:1. Is there a potential confict with having both versions on my machine. I don't want to uninstall express since I may have to do back to it in 180 days.2. Is there a program comparable to the Management Studio for the Eval version of SQL Server 2005?3. How do I access the Eval version? I found the folder where it installed on my C drive but don't know what to do with it.Thanks for any help you can provide.

Hi! I have a small problem , but it's still a problem. I have a SQL Server Agent job that runs a .cmd file. This CMD is logged to a textfile. This process is locked, waiting for me to type a password, but I have nowhere to type that pass.
What I want to do is kill the process that i locking the logfile, because since the logfile is locked, the job cannot be started again (and it's a scheduled job). The jobs status is 'Not Running'. I have solved the problem by making the cmd write to another logfile, so the schedule will work, but the file is still locked, and I don't want to restart the server since it's a productionserver.
How to I find the process that is initialized from SQL Agent, and kill it?
Please assist, the issue with SQL 2005 Browser and SQL 2000 Server Service is understood.
Our problem is with networked 2000 instances and SQL Express. The SQL 2000 machines (Standard & MSDE) do not have SQL 2005 or Express installed only 2000. When a SQL Express computer is put on the network with the SQL Browser service running almost all SQL 2000 machines lose sight of the other SQL 2000 instances. The second the SQL Browser is turned off on the SQL Express box the SQL 2000 machines can see each others instances. It appears that the response from the SQL Express SQL Browser causes the SQL 2000 machine to stop listening for responses. Once in a while one of the SQL 2000 instances will show up with the SQL Browser active on the network and it is my belief that it is because that response made it in before the SQL browser response. Please help as this does not appear to be a recognized issue. I'm assuming there aren't many sites running as many named instances on individual machines like we do.
Please note this appears to be a problem with SQL Express Browser not SQL 2005 Standard's which runs without problems on our network.
We have noticed in our environment slowness when starting SSIS packages from SQL Server jobs. I did a quite detailed study on when the slowness actually occurs and what are the consequences. Here are the results.
The SSIS package execution is slow if all the following is true:
The package is started from a job. If started directly as a SSIS package, the execution is fast. The job is running on a 64 bit Windows Server (SQL Server 2005 SP2). The SSIS package and the job are either on the same server or on different servers (the second server is SQL Server 2005 SP1). If the job is run on a 32-bit workstation (Windows XP SP2) the execution is fast (the SSIS package still being on the server). The package contains tasks. § If there are no tasks, just an empty sequence container, the execution is fast. § If a package that has no tasks has logging into the database configured, the execution is fast. § Slowness has been verified with A) a package having a single Execute SQL statement and B) a package having a Send Mail task.
It doesn't seem to matter which user account is used on when running the job.
The slowness happens in several locations, e.g. (there are also others, at least the following have been verified)
There is exactly 30 seconds lag between starting the job (as seen from job history) and when PreValidate (as seen in the sysdtslog90 table) of the package appears in the log. The validation of the package takes 15 seconds (the time difference in the log betwen PreValidate and PackageStart) The problem is really affecting our production environment. Currently the only solution we have come up is to put all the jobs on a workstation and use the workstation as a production server for the jobs.
I haven't heard anyone else having the same problem.
Was trying to open AdventureWorks when i got this error: "There is no editor available "C: Program Flies.....AdventureWorksDW_Log.LDF' Make sure the application for the file type(.LDF) is installed.

And if i do have a database from microsoft access, what are the steps that i need to do inorder to get it export to Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express. Please advise as i really new to it. Thanks!
while failover from one node to another node in cluster environment. cluster node is moving to another node but my SQL server services are not started.in event viewer i am getting bellow errorr event id 19019
I have been trying to drill down to the cause for this event log message: "The configuration of the AdminConnectionTCP protocol in the SQL instance SQLEXPRESS is not valid." It is reported from the SQLBrowser service as a warning when the service starts. I have tried starting SQLBrowser.exe with -c flag, but the output reveals no errors. I have seen this error on three computers. Two are running SQL 2000, 2005 and Express. One was only running Express, but still this message. I then looked into the log for the SQL Express server itself. It shows this message on startup: "Dedicated administrator connection support was not started because it is not available on this edition of SQL Server. This is an informational message only. No user action is required." Now, it appears to me that these two messages may relate to the same "error" (or rather behaviour by design). So, can anyone confirm that the warning in the event log from the SQL Browser service occurs becuase of that the SQL Express edition doesn't allow any "AdminConnection", but the SQL Browser service isn't aware of that SQL Express edition shouldn't support that, and reports it as a warning (implying that we can't do much about this warning)?
after installing SQL Server 2008 R2 and the Reporting Services, I've managed to access the Report Manager URL....Reports through the web browser on the machine itself. But if i am trying to connect to on my client browser it does not find the Report Server.Do I need to configure the server in any way? Do I need to configure the firewall?
