I created an ASP application using Web Developer Express and SQL Server Express on my workstation. Everything works great. I copied the application and all files to my intranet server which is a 2003 server running Sharepoint. When I attempt to run the application from the server.
Access to the ADO.net Managed Provider 'SqlClientFactory' was denied in the data source with ID 'SqlDataSource' because of security settings
Is there something in the web config that I must change or settings on the server that must be changed for the application to run?
I see on the download page that the SharePoint Integration component only runs on x86. Are then any plans or timetable to release an x64 version? We run both the x64 version of SharePoint 2007 and SQL 2005.
This is the second SQL Server component (the first being the IIS Merge Replication agent) that has been released only for x86. What gives?
I have installed SQL 2012 on my DB Server. The SSRS database version table(s) list the current version as 163. The Version number that's displayed in the Programs and Features for SSRS Add-in for SharePoint (yes, on the db server) is 11.2.5623.0.
On my two SharePoint servers the version number for SSRS Add-in for SharePoint shows 11.2.2058. I have installed SQL Server 2012 Service Pack 2 on all three machines. When the SharePoint box calls into SSRS to render a report I get this error:
The version of the report server database is either in a format that is not valid, or it cannot be read. The found version is '163'. The expected version is '162'. --->
The version of the report server database is either in a format that is not valid, or it cannot be read. The found version is '163'. The expected version is '162'.
what else I need to install - and where - to correct this error. What is expecting version '162' and why?
Sorry if this is going over old ground. I am trying to establish which version of SQL Express I have (Sounds daft I know!)
From Server Management app it tells me the following:
Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express 9.00.2047.00 Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2000.085.1117.00 (xpsp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158) Microsoft MSXML 2.6 3.0 4.0 5.0 6.0 Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0.2900.2180 Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0.50727.42 Operating System 5.1.2600
When I installed VS 2005, it installed the default version of SQL Server 2005 Express that ships with Visual Studio 2005 installer media.
How can apply SQL Server 2005 Express SP1 to update this existing instance?
Currently, if I run this query:
SELECT @@version
I get the following:
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.1399.06 (Intel X86) Oct 14 2005 00:33:37 Copyright (c) 1988-2005 Microsoft Corporation Express Edition on Windows NT 5.1 (Build 2600: Service Pack 2)
After applying SP1, I should get 9.00.2047.00.
Should I just go to this link and download & install the SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP1:
at the moment I have the following problem: We have installed a version of the MSDE 2000 Sp3 with our software since 2005. Now we install SQL Server Express 2005 in order to use the latest version and to be compatible with Vista. We have never had any problems with the MSDE, so it was no problem that we installed the german version (by mistake) because there never was any output at installation time. When we now upgrade the existing MSDE installing the new version of our software, there are often problems and there are error messages, unfortunately in german, which cannot be read by most of our international users.
The problem is, that there seems to be no possibility to upgrade the existing (german) MSDE with the english version of SQL Server Express 2005. My question is, if it is possible to upgrade the german MSDE to the english SQL Server 2005 to enable our international users to read the error messages at installation time in english?
I have a PC running the 64 bit version of vista home premium (will be soon upgrading to ultimate).
On the download page http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-au/express/bb410792.aspx for SQL Server Express under the section entitled SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP2 it mentions at the bottom of the page (referred by * & **) that there is a 64 bit install version available for both SQL Server & management Studio.
However, under the section entitled SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services SP2, there is no * or **. As far as I can tell, the Advanced services has Reporting Services as well.
So, what I am wondering is, can I specifically download the 64 bit versions of SQL server express & management studio and as well, download just the reporting services part of Advanced Services?
While upgrading a client over PCAnywhere in another state, I inadvertantly installed
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services
I have had an absolute nightmare with SQL 2005 uninstalling it from a laptop on my desk, so you can understand why I don't want to try uninstalling the Advanced Services version on a computer over PCAnywhere.
However, the remote computer does not have IIS on it, which prompts a warning form Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services.
So, the simple question is, if the program works Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition then I assume it will work with Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services, since it doesn't use any advance services.
I have SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition installed on my PC. I also have the Express Editions of VB and C# installed. Is there any purpose served in my installing SQL Express, also?
I've read comments that the Express languages can only connect to SQL Express databases and not SQL Server 2005 databases; however, I'm not sure how that is enforced. The 'connect to database' wizard does seem to be different in the Express IDE than it is in Visual Studio.
I've read other Express language references that say that they can only connect to SQL Server databases via something called User Instances; however, it's not clear to me if that infers that only SQL Express supports User Instances.
Regarding User Instances, it's not clear to me whether this technology is for single-user (i.e., exclusive) access or not. What scenarios are User Instances good for?
SQL Server 2005 full version is installed on a server computer. I installed MS VS 2005 Express edition on the server. As VS 2005 Express edition can only access to SQL Server 2005 Express edition, so a SQL Server 2005 Express edition has to be installed on the server. I wonder if both SQL Server 2005 full version and Express edition can be installed in the same computer.
I am trying to download SQL Server Express Edition in Germany however the site does not allow me to choose the language of the download. How can I get English version of the software in Germany?
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 don't know if it was mentioned before, but i solved the issue that Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express won't show the option to create/modify a sql compact database by installing not this Version:
Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express Date: 19.04.2006 http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=c243a5ae-4bd1-4e3d-94b8-5a0f62bf7796&DisplayLang=en
but this one:
SQL Server Management Studio Express Service Pack 2 €“ CTP-Version Date: 19.12.2006 http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=ccbda432-8ecf-4c82-bdef-b575eaf07f55&DisplayLang=en
hope this helps.

P.S. i'm curious if anybody else had the same issue, caused of using the wrong Version of SSMSe?
I have a windows 2003 server which has SQL 2005 Express with advanced services installed on it. Then a few weeks back the company purchased SQL server Standard Edition which comes with SQL Server Management Studio (which has more features than SQL Server Management Studio Express currently installed on the server where sql express is running)I have been trying to schedule a maintanance plan on the SQLExpress Instance database from the SQL Server Management Studio that came with the standard version of sql but i have not been able to have all SQL Server Management Studio functionality available when connected to the SQLExpress instance. So is there a way i can connect to the Express Instance from management studio(that comes with the standard edition of sql) and have all its functions available when working with a SQL express database. Or i must upgrade the express database?
Our application installation setup needs to be able to detect:
Is SQL Server 2005 Express Installed?
If false, run the SP2 Installation Is SQL Server 2005 Express or SQL Express SP1 Installed?
If false, run the SP2 Installation with Update Switch Is SQL Server 2005 (not Express) Installed
If true, abort installation with a mesage.
Can you direct me to some documentation about testing for these environments or just if someone has some scripts that will run in InstallShield, that would be great.
ALSO, can you direct me to information about using the command line update switch for the Express SP2 Installer?

Hi all, Yesterday, I just downloaded the SQL Server 2005 Express (SQLEXPR.EXE) and tried to install it in my Windows XP Pro PC that is on Microsoft NT 4 LAN System. I got the following error: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 CTP setup The Microfost .NET Framework 2.0 is not installed. Please install before running setup. This morning, I downloaded the NET Framework Version 2.0 Redistributable Package Beta 2 (x86) from the Microsoft Download Center and installed it in my Windows XP Pro PC. Then I tried to install the SQL Server 2005 Express (SQLEXPR.EXE) again. This time I got a new error: SQL Server 2005 Setup has detected incompatible components from beta versions of Visual Studio, .NET Framework, or SQL Server 2005. Use ADD or Remove Programs to remove these components, and then run SQL Server 2005 Setup again. I am confused and lost in this installation problem. Was the .NET Framework Version 2.0 Redistributable Package Beta 2 (x86) a wrong Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 I downloaded and installed in my PC? Where is the right Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 for the SQL Server 2005 Express? Please help and advise. Thanks in advance, Scott Chang
I have a database which was created in a beta release of SQL Server Express. It was also create when I had the .Net Framework 2.0 Beta installed.
Since then, I have installed .Net Framework 2.0 (Current Release) because that is what was required for MS SQL Server Management Studio Express.
When I try to connect to the DB now it says Cannot connect to server.
I also have the mdf/ldf files. When I try to attach them on another computer running the latest version of SQL Server Express it says:
Database 'Name' connot be upgraded because its non-release version (587) is not supported by this version of SQL Server. You cannot open a database that is incompatible with this vertion of sqlservr.exe. You must re-create the database....
Any ideas how i can get the mdf/ldf files converted over? Or how I can attach the the ealier version of sql server express?? thanks.
Hi, I'm new to the forum and also to SQL Server. Has anybody implemented SharePoint Windows Services on top of SQL Express? I'm trying just that, but i'm encountering some problems when trying to enable Full-Text search. The configuration page for this option says that the database i'm running on does not support full-text search. Thanks in advance,
I found out the battery in my UPS isn't working anymore. My server down a couple of times with power outages before I figured out it wasn't doing its job.
I make backups of my Sharepoint databases using the gui interface in Sharepoint, so I have backups and have used them for a couple of the outages.
What I was wondering (I'm a newb to SQL), if I do a checkdb and get no errors when the databases (sharepoint_config and sharepoint_data) are marked suspect, is there an easy way to get them back online without using the backups. The only reason I ask, there is data entered in the 23hrs (daily backups) since the last backup that I wouldn't mind keeping.
Also, I seem to have gotten (from reading some of the posts here) my sharepoint_config stuck in emergency mode and can't find a post on how to get it back to normal/online mode ;)
I've recently upgraded from MSDE (SBS 2003 SP1 with .NET 2.0) to SQL Express SP1.
I am trying to enable full text sarching on the Sharepoint instance but whenever I go to Sharepoint central administaton and text sarching it reports that the SQL server installed does not suport this.
I can't find any documentation on this anywhere.
Admidatley the machine is a domain controller and I know this isn't recommended but surely this shouldn't stop this from working?
All components where selected when installing SQLExpress and I recieved no errors.
I am using the two programs in the title and use IIS/Web Developer to display locally. All is well. However, when I file transfer to a web server on our intranet web server it fails. The generic aspx pages display, but when I go to login, I get errors indicating can't find the database. (SQL Server does not allow remote connections. Error 26)
I have tried 30+ connection string options and have talked to others in my office more advanced then I and they say my string/s looked fine.
My question is, Can I simply drag/drop my files from my system (inluding the SQL Express MDF file) or am I required to install something from SQL express on the web server to make it work?
Before you ask...Yes, I setup TCP/IP, allowed remote connections, no passwords etc. No matter what I try, I keep getting the above generic error. I can't help but think it has something to do with not having SQL Express installed on the web server.
If I upgrade my sharepoint Database from MSDE that comes with sharepoint, to SQL 2005 Express, will I lose my no limit on the Database size?
Normally MSDE has limit of 2GB but I guess it doesn't when installed with Sharepoint services. So if I upgrade to 2005 express, will I then get a 4 GB limit on size?
Is there any way to restore a database of higher version to lower version.
E.g. I have created a database in sql server 2012, created some tables & procedures in that.I took Full backup of that database. Can I restore it to sql 2008r2 or any lower version.
I know direct restore is not possible, I have to use either import or export option or generating script,but i want to know is there any easy step to do so.
Since some analysis services features are only available in Enterprise version , I have to upgrade my SQL 2005 server from standard edition to enterpise edition.
So I uninstall originial standard version of analysis service and install a Enterprise version. However, the analysis service is still a standard version after installation.
Is it possible to keep data engine as standard version and install a enterprise version of analysis service?
Hello,I have been searching and reading a lots of information on the microsoft website about the different version of SQL server, but still can not make my decision.In term of performance, is there a real big difference between the workgroup and the standard version? The workgroup is limited to 3 GB of RAM while the standard is unlimited, would that really change the performance if my server has 16Gb or RAM?The price difference is pretty substantial so if could only have to buy the workgroup , it would be better.One more question, regarding the type of licence, my server has 2 processors, could I avoid buying 2 licences and get the Server plus CAL instead. I am using this server to host 4 web-application running on SQL server. Each database is about 15 MB.Thanks in adavance for your advises.Arno
I am wondering if it is possible to change from SQL Server Enterprise Evaluation Version to Developer Version. The reason is because the Enterprise Evaluation version expires after 180 days. So if I create reports and cubes in Enterprise Evaluation I can import them into Developer Edition right? Should I remove the Enterprise Evaluation version after 180 days or leave it then install Developer Edition?
I have tried to attatch a database ,created by SQL server Express within a C# application , in SQL server 2005 Enterprise edition, but the following error message appears:
-----------------------------

While trying to "Set Configuration Database Server" for Windows SharePoint Services I receive the error: "Cannot open database "SharePoint" requested by the login. The login failed. (Error code: 4060)"
I set up a test bed server 'SNET' with WinServer03 SP1, IIS 6. SQL Server Express, and SharePoint Services.
In "Set Configuration Database Server" I used: Database server: snetsqlexpress SQL Server database name: SharePoint (I know real imaginative) Database connection type: * Use Windows authentication X Connect to existing configuration database.
If I try "Use SQL Authentication" "Login failed for user <username>. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection. (Error code: 18452)"
First let me say that while I'm not a newbie, as usual I've bitten off more than I can chew comfortably. Server '03, Active Directory, IIS 6, SQLExpress, and SharePoint are all relatively new to me, hence the test bed server, and I'm on a pretty steep learning curve.
But what's life without a challenge.
So the short and sweet of it is can somebody point me in the right direction to find the root cause of this error. I do have other programs running with this instance of SQLExpress and doing so quite happily. And I've given myself god privileges in AD just to try to get around this.
We have a 64bit os machine that we accidently loaded the 32 bit version of sql server on. We now want to upgrade it to 64 bit sql server, but we now have a production database on it. My understanding is that all I have to do is detach the production database, upgrade to 64bit sql server, then reattach the database. Is this really all I have to do?
Can some one here give me more insight about how to upgrade a SQL Server 2005 Standard Version (32 bits) to a SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Version (32 bits) as default instance on a Windows 2003 enterprise OS (32 bits). I want to know what is the easist way and what is the safest way. May I preserve some settings I have for the STD version, or I have to start from strach again to configure the server? Is there any catches, anything I should have attention to (We are using heavily about CLR and fulltext indexing)?
