<!--[if !supportLists]-->What administrative tools/utilities are installed with a "base" install of SQL Server Express SP2 (e.g., ability to issue command-line SQL, GUI's for accesssing/adminstering databases, etc.)? How can I control what is installed?

Hi Guys
I have just been trying to install the Admin tools from the SQL 6.5 setup CD on a Win NT Workstation 4 SP6 system. Everything seems to go fine until the icons are addded into the program group, these come up as system default icons and don't link to any programs. If I go into the installed directory and execute the programs then I get the following message:
The SQLOLE OLE object could not be registered. Class not registered (80040154)
After clicking OK the program terminates. I have tried diferent install directories, even diferent partitions. I have also deleted the directory and removed the Registry entries manual - this is because it cannot be uninstalled.
Still no luck.
Any ideas?
Many thanks

Hello,
I currently use Toad 7.5 for Oracle as GUI admin tool. Are there any good tools for SQL 2000 like Toad that provide an easy to use GUI.
I did check out Toad for MSSQL and it seems limited compared to the Oracle version.
Thanks,

Can anyone tell me where to download the management tools for SQL Server 2005 Express?
Thank you,
We have jumped straight to 64 bit SQL 2005 with no 32 bit 2005 inbetween.
However this means the tools we have cannot be installed on windows XP/2000 32 bit.
Is there some way to get the 32 bit tools as it appears strange that 32 bit tools were not provided for remote access.
Cheers
Julian
We are looking for some professional, low-cost, and easily configurable CMS tools that work hand-in-hand with SQL Server Express. Any come to mind?
View 1 Replies View RelatedCan the SQL Server 2005 Management Studio interact with local SQL 2005 Express databases. So can we use one management tool for both our server (non-local) SQL 2005 Databases and our local SQL 2005 Express databases (That the developers have free reign over).
Any tips and tricks for this kind of setup?
I have used the tool at this URL

View 7 Replies View RelatedHopefully a simple question: Is it possible to use Maintenance Plans created on SQL Server Management Studio (installed as part of an instance of SQL Server 2005 Standard Ed.) to back up databases running on an instance of SQL Server Express Edition with Advanced Services? I don't need directions, just whether or not it is permitted.
I've been able to create the plans including establishing connections to from SSMS to the the SQL Express instance, but they keep erroring out. I just need to know if this is actually permitted since Maintenance Plans are not available on Management Studio Express Edition.
Thank you in advance for your help.
In the registry in Windows 10, I looked inside HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftMicrosoft SQL Server. Is LoginMode still in some subfolder of that, or has it been moved to another place? Perhaps a differently named key is now used. Or perhaps it's configured in a config file for SQL Sever 2012 express.

Right now I am running Windows authentication, and am logged in as the same user as I was when I installed SQL server, and that user is the administrator for the computer system I am currently running.
It seems like SQL server won't let me change anything having to do with the security of the system - I've tried changing to mixed mode authentication, but I receive the same error then as well.
Help!
I downloaded and performed a full install of SQL Server Express 2008 Nov CTP. It was installed on a fresh installation of Windows Vista Enterprise x64.
During setup, I checked the 'Client Tools' box which has the description:
"Includes management and development tools: SQL Server Management Studio, SQL Server Configuration Manager, SQL Server Profiler, and Database Engine Tuning Advisor"
The installation ran fine with no errors. After install I looked for the Management Studio but couldnt find it anywhere. No SQL Server Profiler or Database Tuning Advisor either. The only tool that appears to have installed is the SQL Server Configuration Manager.
If I check my Start Menu, the only 2008 items that exist are

What is the issue here?
Hi,
I'm experiencing problems connecting remotely (through the Management Studio) to a named instance of SQL Server Express 2005.
After investigation I determined it was a firewall issue - turn off windows firewall and I can connect fine. I initially added ports 1433 and 1434 to windows firewall - still no joy. Then I added the binaries explicitly (sqlservr.exe and sqlbrowsr.exe - or whatever they are) - still no joy. So, I looked into the firewall log to see what was being dropped. I found that my IP was trying to connect via port 1047 (TCP)... I've searched for anything about this on google and cannot find any indication that the management studio should be using this port to connect.
If I add this port, the connection works fine. Has anyone else experienced this ? As there seems to be no way of modifying the management studio to connect via a specific port, I'm a bit concerned that something is just not right.
I would appreciate any advice you can give.
Thanks.

View 6 Replies View RelatedHi all,
I'm a newbie to Reporting Services so please forgive my ignorance...
I've recently installed SQL Server Express 2005 with Reporting Services on my Vista Business Notebook (with no network connections) and have installed VS C# Express as well as the Business Intelligence Studio to create reports.
My C# application can connect to SQL Server fine, however, the reports I created with Business Studio refuses to deploy to the server due to the following reason:
"The permissions granted to user 'localhostJenny' are insufficient for
performing this operation".
I find this odd as I've been able to deploy reports on my other Windows XP machine (with SQL Server Express) no probs at all. Additionally, I cannot see the 'Site settings' link within Report Manager (Web) that I'd normally get with an admin account (i.e. on my Win. XP machine). Various sources indicate that my account has insufficient access rights to view this.
Having browsed through seemingly endless blogs and forums, I suspect that my local account has not been configured to access the Report Manager web client to publish, manage and administer the site.
I have tried the surface area tool for SQL Server, but I suspect that this is relevant only to SQL Server DB access and management. Adding an administrator here does nothing.
The question is, how can I grant access to myself (local account) to allow me to publish reports via business studio, and at the same time - administer Report Manager Site Settings - on my vista notebook??
I would be extremely grateful for any help on this matter - I've tried ceaseless reinstallations, but to no avail!
Many thanks in advance,
Jenny
Login failed for user 'TOSHIBA-USERASPNET'
I know that the file persmission for the web application have to include aspnet, so i keep resetting the folder permission for aspnet in file manager, but the login failed keeps coming back every day or two
problem is after working with VS05 Pro, SQL Server Management Studio CTP, somehow the aspnet persmission get changed, use alot of sqldatasource wizards and often there is a conflict/hang between the datasource wizard and the need to have the mdf in a dettached state within VS server explorer,
not sure but the procedure to fix this seems to be to reboot, detach and re-attach the mdf in the Sql server Studio tool, re-apply the aspnet file permission on the web app folders (wonder should i be doing this in IIS instead), make sure the mdf within server explorer is detached, the it works
anyway, getting real tired of the resulting delays and design time derailment, clues greatly appreciated, thanks
sometimes i can use View in Browser when in VS05 form view and i wont get the aspnet folder permission error and other times i do.
last thing, is it a bad idea to give aspnet full permission for the entire web applicaiton??
I have been trying to get Visual Studio Express w/C# to work with SQL Express. If I run with my normal local privs set to Debug User, I get a Login Failed message when I try to add a SQL database using the Add Item feature from the Solution Explorer. If I set my account to run as local administrator, everything works as expected. I am unable to connect to anything from the Database Explorer as well unless I am local admin.
I can run the SQL Express management utilities with no trouble when logged in as Debug User, and everything else in Visual Studio seems to work OK as well.
Is there a cure for this? I keep preaching to my users about the dangers of running as local admin, so I would feel uneasy about doing so myself just to be able to use VS Express.
I have recently installed the SQL Server Management Studio Express but I do not find Management Tools in order to create scheduled backups and shrinking of the databases. I was under the impression that this should be included in the Management Studio. I use the SQL 2005 Express for smaller customers who run the SQL on a desktop unit. I need a way to backup the data to a server machine for backup purposes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled to no avail.
Hi,
While building a vista 64 Ultimate machine recently, I temporarily installed the express edition toolkit with visual studio 2005.
I have since uninstalled sql, and reinstalled the 64-bit developer edition. However it appears the toolkit did not uninstall completely - now when I try to install workstation components, bol, etc. It says that the upgrade is blocked.
Hard as it is to believe that an express install can block a developer edition install, it does.
I've tried reinstalling the ee toolkit, as any client/management tools are better than none - but this fails, saying that the components are already on the machine!! sheesh!
It doesn't give an option to uninstall.
Has anyone got any ideas. I've uninstalled *everything* sql related, reinstalled with sp2 twice. I can see and create databases using visual studios server explorer, but this does not give any management options. Does anyone know how I can remove whatever registry entries are fouling up this installation?
Thanks,
mk17
Hi ,
I have installed the SQL 2005 Client tools in anticipation of our servers been upgraded to SQL 2005 soon. I would like to create a local instance of SQL 2005 i.e. Express so I can try out functionality while I wait for the servers to be upgraded.
Is this possible or is now installing Express going to mess up some of the currently installed tools?
Help appreciated.
I want to set up a database role so that users can use sp_readerrorlog through SSMS. It does a check on membership in the securityadmin role.
I have tested it and can see you can grant execute on xp_readerrorlog but the SSMS GUI uses sp_readerrorlog.
I thought I could create a user/certificate and add the signature to sp_readerrorlog but it's not permitted (likely because it's not a normal database object).
So the other solution is to add the users to the securityadmin role but then explicitly deny alter any login (best done with a custom server role in 2012+ but otherwise just manually in 2008). I tested this out and it works, I'm not able to alter any logins or increase my own permissions, I also did a check of what's reported from fn_my_permissions(null, null) and it shows minimal permissions like I'd expect.
Dear All,
how can we know that wether we had server tools or client tools on my machine?

The network admin is saying that if I run my SQL Express in the office , it will intefere with his SQL Server 2000 connection and its services.
He asked me to disconnect myself from the network and do the work locally, what the!??
I had my SQL express remote connection set to Local and remote connections (using TCP/IP connection )
However , I really dont believe a SQL express running on my laptop would in anyway steal incoming connection to the SQL server 2000 running on the company server.
I now have my SQL express set to Local connections only, I would like to ask you guys does SQL express actually conflict with ANY services running on the same network ??
Thanks a million

I am running SQL Server 2005 x64 Enterprise under Windows 2003 x64 Enterprise. My current backup strategy uses T-SQL jobs run by SQL Agent (writes out *.bak files) and then I have an Integration Services job that copies the *.bak files to our NAS device. I have performed a restore without issue. The jobs are all automated every four hours via SQL Agent. Is this a sound strategy or are there additional benefits to using 3rd party tools? If so, what are the advantages and which tool provides them?
Is there - apart from the notorious RESTORE HEADERONLY - an tool which is able to tell which SQL Server version created a specific BAK file? I'm looking for a tool that can be used w/o an available/running SQL Server installation.
Alternatively, is there any documentation about what is read with RESTORE HEADERONLY so I could write a tool myself?
Where would I find the version "bytes" in a BAK file?
