SQL Server Requirements - Can I Get Away With Using SQL2000?
Feb 13, 2007
I recently was moved into an applications developers position here at the lawfirm I work at.
Thusfar, its been alot of straight ASP, SQL2000, and Access.
I know the need for me to know .Net is coming, and Ive decided to start playing with ASP.net so I can look a bit proactive..
Ive looked over what I need to get started, in liu of Visual Studio I know of the VS Express options. However, I currently have SQL Server 2000 installed locally on my machine along with IIS 5.1. All the VS Express information Ive found keeps referencing SQL2005 express. Can I get away with using what I already have with 2000? Or if not, can SQL2005 express be run alongside with SQL2000?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

We need to create a SQL server login that should not be having permissions to do any changes (CREATE/ALTER/DROP) on database objects like (Tables, views).But should be able to (CREATE/ALTER/DROP) stored procedures. Also using this login they should not be able to (CREATE/ALTER/DROP) databases.
Please let me if this is feasible in SQL Server 2005.

Hi!
I am installing SQL Server 2005 Express as part of my setup. On Windows 2003 Servers with password policy enabled, the SQL Server 2005 Express installation fails. Here is the error I am getting - "the sa password must meet SQL Server password policy requirements. For strong password guidelines, see Authentication Mode, in SQL Server Books Online.". If I disable the password policy, the SQL Server 2005 Express installation is OK.
Is there a parameter that I can pass to the command line to get around this?
Thanks!

Is it necessary to have SSIS installed on the Server (SQL Server) in order to run SSIS programs? Or is SSIS just a client-side, developer tool that can create and test programs against various remote data sources (SQL, Oracle, flat files, etc.)?
What must be installed on the server in order to run SSIS programs?

CREATE TABLE #tblTemplateBlocks
(
TemplateID int,
BlockID int,
OrderID int
[Code] ....
I have a table called TemplateBlocks which contains which Blocks are on a Template. In this example - just one template - with three Blocks.
Table tblFields contains a list of Fields that are on each TemplateID/BlockID. In this example there are 3 fields on each TemplateID/BlockID pair.
Before I can use a template, I have to check that, in tblFields, for each Template/BlockID pairing - one of the fields must be set as the Stage Base (I cannot have 2 fields as StageBase or no fields as StageBase). In the example data above, the data would be okay as each Template/BlockID pairing has one row where StageBase is true.
Having checked that each Template/BlockID pairing has a StageBase, I need to check that each row where StageBase is true has a value for the WeekStart column and that, taking into account the order of the Blocks in tblTemplateBlocks, the values in WeekStart for each TemplateID/BlockID pairing are getting progressively bigger.
So, for example, the example data above would fail because the third TemplateID/BlockID pairing has no value for the WeekStart column in the row where StageBase is true.
If I added a value of 2 for WeekStart in the row for the third TemplateID/Block that has a StageBase of true - again the data would fail because, taking into account the order of the Blocks - the values for WeekStart would be 0,3,2 and these numbers need to increase.
0,3,4 would be fine.
0,3,10 would be fine.
0,3,3 would fail.
I can do this easily using a cursor or two - but how to do this without cursors.

Hi,
We are migrating all dbs to SQL2005 one by one and now planning for a database mirroring. I would like to know the following:
1. My database(one main production) size on the primary is around 1TB. So having said that we are goin to have a db mirroring, do i need to have the same hardware requirements on the mirror also?? do i need 1TB space on the mirror server also? is there anyway it can use the same hardware that primary is using?
2. For the high availability configuration in mirroring, we are prefering to have a witness server too. Does the mirror server need to have same h/w configuration as the primary(64 bit, AWE, etc). Can the witness be a 32bit, 4 Gigs RAM?
Could anyone please answer the above and that will be very helpful. This is a bit urgent.
thks,
Mani

I am trying to do an upgrade in place from SQL Server 2000 SP3a to SQL Server 2005. I am encountering the following error. SQL Server Setup has encountered the following problem:[Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server] Password validation failed. The password does not meet Windows policy requirements because it is too short...To continue, correct the problem and then SQL Server setup again. I read the other posting and it mentioned that the sa account needs to be changed. I have changed the sa account to meet the passowrd requirements for our system and have changed the following services I could find over to my domain account which I know meets the password restrictions. If I do a new install, everything seems to load correctly. What options do I have to do this upgrade in place?
Thanks for your help,

Hi,
I have a VB.NET program which creates a Job (Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Agent.Job) and schedules it, to load and run a existing SSIS package, which is on a different server.
I'm using the following assemblies for this purpose.
Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo.dll
Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo.dll
Microsoft.SqlServer.SqlEnum.dll
To make this application run in my application server, do i have to install any SQL server components or SSIS rumtime components? Or Is it enough if i copy only the above mentioned dlls to my applications bin directory, in my application?
Note: I have the enterprise edition of SQL Server 2005 installed on my database server.
Thanks in advance.

Basically I'm trying to produce a report that shows qualified employees for each program. Each employee can possess many qualifications. There will be no programID parameter submitted by the user. I just want to produce the report which shows the programs and the qualified employees for each. I thought I had a query that was working but once I added a different ProgramID into the ProgramModules table things went south.
Here are my tables:
tblEmployees (table of employees)
- EmployeeID
- EmployeeName
tblQualifications (table of qualifications)
- Qualification_ID
- QualificationTitle
tblEmployeeQualification (table of all employees qualifications)
-EmpQualificationID
-EmployeeID (fk for tblEmployees)
-QualificationID (fk for tblQualifications)
tblPrograms (table of programs)
-ProgramID
-ProgramTitle
tblProgramModules (table of qualifications required by each program)
-ProgramModuleID
-ProgramID (fk for tblPrograms)
-QualificationID (fk for tblQualifications)
Here is the query I was working with that works when there are only records in the ProgramModules table that use the same ProgramID
SELECT
tblProgramModules.TrainingProgramID,
tblEmployees.EmployeeID,
tblEmployees.EmployeeName
FROM
tblEmployees
[Code] .....

This doesn't make any sense. I am trying to install SQL Server 2005 on SBS 2003 with Service Pack 1. According to Windows Update, there is nothing left for me to install. However, I am getting this error (while installing SQL Server Express and the Developer Edition):
"Your operating system does not meet Service Pack level requirements for this SQL Server release. Install the Service Pack from the Microsoft Download Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=50380, and then run SQL Server setup again."
When I go to the link, there is nothing there to download (it takes me to the main Microsoft download page). I meet all the requirements that I have found. What gives?
Thanks,
Scott

This is taken directly from a job requirement (names are not mentioned to protect the ignorent...I meant Innocent): The employee must occasionally lift and/or move up to 25 pounds. While performing the duties of this job, the employee is frequently required to stand; walk; sit; talk or hear; use hands to finger, handle, or feel; reach with hands and arms; climb or balance; stoop, kneel, crouch, or crawl.

Hi,I was hoping someone may be able to shed some light on a SQL2000 connection problem.I have an ASP.NET(1.1) application that connects to a SQL2000 instance on the localmachine, the connection details are as follows: Connection Code :try
{//connect to the provided datasource
using(SqlConnection connection = new SqlConnection(strConnectionInfo))
{
strStatus = "Pulling Data";
SqlDataAdapter sqlA = new SqlDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM NavBlocks",connection);
sqlA.Fill(dsNav.NavBlocks);
SqlDataAdapter sqlB = new SqlDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM NavItems",connection);
sqlB.Fill(dsNav.NavItems);
bNavLoaded = true;//prevent further calls
}
}The connection string is as follows: "Data Source=BOBBITSQL2000;Initial Catalog=pinnacleCMS;User Id=myUser;Password=myPass;"Now this conection has never been a problem, the intial catalog exists, the user exists and has permissions, further to this this users connection details can be used to succesfully access the database from a dsn on this machine. The server explorer finds the database fine, Visio finds the databse fine.The problem only existed after I reverse engineered the database into visio (the database was originally developed using Visio), then dropped all of the tables using Enterprise Manager, and re generated the database from within Visio (ddl script) following a few minor changes.Since the re generation I get the server not found error message from the ASP.Net application.I have tried using different network libraries, logging in using the sa account etc, it makes no difference the ASP.Net application cannot see the SQL server instance.Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.p.s. I have tried dropping the firewall with no success, no updates have been installed.Thanks

Brand new to linked servers and trying some stuff. I've successfully linked a server using EM (both are sql2000). I can successfully run a select statement through QA. I'm trying to test a locally-stored procedure and am having a bit of trouble. Please, no arguements about best method - I have no choice. Cannot create stored procs on remote machine.
If I run this through QA, I get an immediate return set: select * from linkedName.dbName.dbo.tblName
If I try to create a test stored proc like the following, I get: Error 7405: Heterogeneous queries require the ANSI_Nulls and ANSI_WARNINGS options to be set for the connection. This ensure consistent query semantics. Enable these options and thenreissue your query. When I looked it up in BOL, I thought I was setting these items?
CREATE PROCEDURE zp_countyListing AS
SET ANSI_WARNINGS ON
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
select * from linkedName.db.dbo.tblName
Thanks for the assistance.

I’ve got a linked server created in SQL2000 to DB2.
I’m using Client Access ODBC Drivers, and Microsoft OLE DB provider for ODBC Drivers.
I have views created against the linked server as
ALTER VIEW BLBATDT AS
SELECT * FROM LURCH_PARADB.S102D4LM.PARADB.BLBATDT
All seem(ED) to be working fine until I ran into this issue.
Using the view
If I select count(*) from BLBATDT returned value 786
If I select * from BLBATDT I get 76 rows returned
If I select from BLBATDT where field = value I get nothing, when in fact there is a value I specified.
I modified the view creation to
Create view as
select * from openquery(LURCH_PARADB,
'select *
from S102D4LM.PARADB.BLHDR')
Performed the above simple selects, (same results)
I modified the view creation to
Create view as
select * from openquery(LURCH_PARADB,
'select field_list_of_all_fields_in_the_table
from S102D4LM.PARADB.BLHDR')
Same results
However if I modified the view creation to
Create view as
select * from openquery(LURCH_PARADB,
'select field1, field2
from S102D4LM.PARADB.BLHDR')
And limit the fields selected to a small subset, everything works fine.
I think the issue may be that the parent tables are very wide in total byte count and the number of fields is also large.
This particular tables has 120 fields with a total record length of over a 1000 bytes.
If this is the case, how do I resolve this?
Has anyone ran into this before?

Our SQL Developer asked for a new server with a separate small hard disk for the Transaction Log alone to reside on, to increase performance. This will be hard to do, since the servers we have been looking at are low-profile rackmount, and only hold 2 SATA disks. I hate to waste our only expansion bay on a small HD. Is this really something important, or will a Quad-core processor and plenty of RAM make the performance difference negligible? We have 32-bit SQL2000 licensed per processor, and our database is only about 26GB. I was hoping to get 1 large disk and partition it into a 20GB OS partition, and the rest would be for SQL. Am I totally on the wrong track?
My 2nd question is about RAM - if we get 4GB of RAM, will it decrease the performance if we get 64-bit O/S pre-installed instead of 32-bit? I know 64-bit O/S *can use* more RAM than 4GB, but does it *need* more RAM for the same level of performance that we have now? (We are planning to expand that to at least 8-12GB whenever we upgrade to 64-bit SQL2005, but the budget does not allow it just yet.)
Thanks!

Hi,
I want to install SQL 2000 Server on Win-2003 STD Server and transfer the database that has been running on SQL-2000/Win 2K server.
Win-2003 Server has Apache services and TrendMicro AV Server running. After installation the SQL service starts automatically. But I am not able to see the database from Enterprise manager. It gives error 'A connection could not be established to <local>. Reason: Login failed for DOMAIN/USER. I am logged into Win2003 server as 'Administrator' for installation. SQL Server authentication in Mixed Mode and connect using Domain user account.
While applying update(SP3) also the same error comes after trying to validate password and the Sql service automatically stops. I tried using both Win pwd and SQL sa pwd. Both are giving same error.
How I can go abt it?
Shall be grateful for a reply,

For SQL 2000, what are the licensing requirements for a clustered environment? I thought you needed datacenter for the OS, is there a clustered version of sql server, or do you need 2 copies of enterprise edition. Also, if you cluster can you license sql cals for clients, or do you have to do by processor?

I have a sql server (2k sp4), a web server and a development machine.
I need to install sql server reporting services and am confused as to the prerequisites and as to what gets installed where.
Is there a server install and a client install or do I run the same install on both (and deselect what's not required on each).
Sorry it's a bit vague but in my research various people have told me various different things.

Hey all,
I couldn't find an answer anywhere on the site, if there is one, could you please let me know where to go? Thanks.
Here goes. We receive large csv files, around a million records a month. What we need to do is:
- Of course, import these records
- Be able to run failry heavy reports on around 3 months worth of data (about 3 million records)
- Wanting to store at least a years worth of data
What I need to know:
- What server(s) spec (CPU, HDD, memory, etc) would we need to import and run reports quite fast. Don't want the reports/imports to take days to run. The reports will need to be run by about 3-5 people at the same time
- What OS and database type should I use (I was looking at Windows/Linux and MS SQL/MySQL)
- If we run these types of reports, can we use the same SQL server to run/store other applications (eg. CRM, etc) with no real impact on performance. There would be at least 20 people using the CRM database at the same time.
Thanks
