Windows updates are scheduled for the server every 15 days. After windows update the machine reboots on its own but sql server does not start. If I reboot the mchine manually sql server starts without any problem. SQL services set to start automatically.
Can somone tell me what do I need to do to fix this problem.
SQL Server Reporting Services 2005 Service would not Start on windows server 2003. Working great till yesterday and no changes were made to config file.

I have installed SQL server 2005 enterprise edition on Windows 2003 virtual PC (full installation). The installation went through successfully. However, after install completed, I cannot find any of the client tools under the start menu -> all programs -> Microsoft SQL server 2005 menu. The only item listed under the SQL server 2005 is Configuration Tools, which is used to configure the database server.
I have tried to install the client component again (in case I didn't install them at the first place) but the installation process cannot be started since it detected that the client components have been installed already. I can also see the sql server native client running in the services.
The server engine is working fine since I can connect to that sql server using another machine where I have the client tool (SQL server management studio).
One of my friends has exactly the same problem. He installed the sql server 2005 Standard edition on windows 2003 server (full installation), but the client tools are not showing up in the start menu either.
I also checked the location for the SQL server management studio (Microsoft SQL server/90/Tools/Binn/VSShell/Common7/IDE), there is only one folder called publicAssemblies listed under. Is this correct or something is missing?
Is there anything special that I need to worry about in regards to Windows Updates on SQL Servers? I do not have a good development environment yet so testing them first really isn't feasable. (This is going to change very soon. I'm just waiting on a fiber card so I can connect the Dev server to a RAID.) The SQL Servers are pretty far back in regards to MS updates so I want to make sure I won't do any damage to the DBs or SQL Server itself. The first update that I am going to install is Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 2.
I want to actualice my SQL Server and iīm asking if itīs posible to update all the hotfix trough the web update.microsoft.com, there is any automatic way in order to update SQL Server?
I've let my Vista Ultimate 64-bit installation on a Dell Precision M90 pretty much have its way with automatic update which has worked reasonably well...until now.
I've installed the MS CRM 3.0 laptop version into my Outlook client. Everything was working well until automatic update tried to install Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Service Pack 2 (KB 921896) which failed. It also rendered the Online/Offline functionality unusable and, with the installation accomplished while I was Offline, all of my CRM data is sequestered. Uninstalling the CRM client and SQL Express with it while I'm in an Offline condition has some real downsides so I thought I'd try to fix the SP2 issue through this group and then work my way back through the product teams.
The Windows Update installer returns a failure code of 2B22.
I've tried the downloadable SP2 upgrade but only the SQLEXP32.EXE seems to be available through any of the links in the SQL Express pages I've yet visited, not the WOW version.
After differential restore I start Remedy service. It starts in few seconds.
After full restore the same service takes 15 minutes to start. Bothe the things are done through SQL service agent. Even manual restaring the service also takes 15 minutes after full restore. WHy is it happening this way?
I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to disable the following, SQLISPackage start/finish events sent to windows event logs everytime a SSIS package is executed and completed.
Excel 2007 Documents Not Displayed in Windows XP Professional sp2 Start Menu's Recent Documents List:
Dear Microsoft Support: I can't figure out how to get recently used Excel 2007 (new file formats) documents to show up in the Windows XP Professional (sp2) Start Menu's Recent Documents List. I checked the Internet, the knowledgebase, many parts of the MS web site, etc. for an answer but can't find one. Are Excel 2007 documents supposed to show up in the XP Start Menu's Recent Document List? Is this a bug or do I have to do some sort of configuration to make it do so? If it's a bug, when will a fix be available?
Are these new Excel 2007 files filtered out like EXE files are which will not appear in the Recent Document List?
The Excel 2007 file types are listed in the Registry.
This question is also posted on Experts-Exchange...No solutions yet.
Will SQL Express SP2 automatically come down in the Windows Update Service or will we have to update our users? I seem to remember seeing something somewhere that it will.
Does anyone have a link to an authority or official notice on this?
I had IIS (7 beta I believe) working perfectly on Vista Home Premier. My web site is Access database driven with a mix of VBscrip and JScript in asp pages.
After a recent Windows update it is now broken! I am getting ODBC errors although I the code I used was working fine before;
I had installed SQL Server 2005 developer on my machine (Vista 64-bit) prior to installing Visual Studio 2005. When I installed VS, I used the default installation, which installed SQL Server Express. Soon thereafter, I started getting notifications in Windows Update about an update to SP2. However, when I try to install it, it fails with "Code 7367", and provides no other useful information. I tried downloading SQL Server Express SP2 myself but it would not let me update the existing instance on my machine. So I totally removed the instance from my machine through add/remove. However, I restarted and the update is still showing up and won't go away!! Does anybody have any ideas of getting this problem?
We are going insane trying to start Report Manager on a SQL Reporting Services 2000 installation. The programmer/admin who originally set this up for us is gone.
We recently upgraded a database/application server to a new server, causing the data source being used by reports in reporting services to no longer be valid. Unfortunately, we do not have access to the original report project to 're-deploy' with the corrected data source.
We desperately need to get the reports that are installed to retrieve their data from the new database location/machine. We understand this can be done by specifying a new data source in Report Manager. (To clarify, we have NOT moved the report servier installation or database, these remain in place - it's just the deployed reports that no longer point to the correct data source.)
For some reason, our Report Manager will no longer run - when we try to launch it, we get a windows login dialog - nothing will work here. We've tried both local and domain admins and constantly get ACCESS IS DENIED 401.3 error messages that we do not have permission/problems with ACL's.
We've gone so far as to allow EVERYONE read/write access to the ReportManager and ReportServer folders and the RS virtual directories, but nothing seems to help.
Can anyone help with this? Ideas on how to change our data source, or how to get back into Report Manager?
Since we are somewhat technical, but not experts, and don't have much more time to waste, we are willing to pay $500 for this project to someone willing to access the server and fix the problem so that the reports point to the correct database and restore access to Report Manager.
I just upgraded from Windows XP Pro to Windows Vista Bussiness and tried to reinstall SQL Server 2005 Developers Edition. After the installation i downloaded (using microsoft windows update) and installed all the service packs for sql and vista available.
My problem is when i open sql server management studio and try to connect to my default instance using windows authentication and database engine, an 18456 error occurs.
I enabled all the protocols and all the ports I disabled windows firewall and antivirus (eset nod32) I installed all service packs available I have also installed Visual Studio 2005 without installing sqlexpress
But nothing happens!
Please i am very desperate, any information will be gratefully accepted.
This is my installation Information
Code Snippet
Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio 9.00.3042.00 Microsoft Analysis Services Client Tools 2005.090.3042.00 Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 6.0.6001.18000 (longhorn_rtm.080118-1840) Microsoft MSXML 3.0 5.0 6.0 Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.0.6001.18000 Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0.50727.1434 Operating System 6.0.6001
Since today (after installing the latest Windows Updates !on my local machine!) I cannot login to a SQLExpress instance remotely; stating that it cannot find the server/instance.
The weird thing is: it only happens when I want to login to the non-default instance (sqlexpress 2005) (<IP><instance>).
When i'm using the default instance (msde 2000 or sqlexpress 2005 on another machine) (<IP>) it seems to work fine.
Does this have something to do with the windows updates, or is it just a coincedence?
I have a managed code DLL that is used as a CLR assembly in my database. A stored procedure in the database references this CLR assembly. My CLR assembly has a dependency on Microsoft's System.Management.dll. In order to get my assembly to work, I added System.Management.dll as an assembly to the database using:
CREATE ASSEMBLY SystemManagement FROM 'C:WINDOWSMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727System.Management.dll' WITH PERMISSION_SET = UNSAFE GO
For months this stored procedure has worked fine... up until today.
Today (7/11/07) I noticed a new Microsoft update was available. I applied the patch to an XP machine that has my database and now my CLR assembly stored procedure no longer works. I checked a 2003 Server machine that did not have the latest patch and see that the stored procedure is working fine. I then apply Microsoft update to the 2003 server machine. Now the stored procedure no longer works on the 2003 machine.
I deleted my stored procedure and CLR assembly and then added them back with no success. I then deleted and added back the System.Management.dll assembly again and suddenly now my stored procedure works again.
This is BAD. I can't have Windows updates blowing up my app. What am I doing wrong here? I must use the System.Management.dll in my CLR stored procedure but I can't have changes to Microsoft's files causing me to be unable to reference them as assemblies.
How can my CLR stored procedure assembly reference a Microsoft assembly such that changes to the Microsoft assembly does not cause version mismatches?
Starting saturday all of our SSIS packages on a server (64-bit) starting failing (hundreds of them) the error is:
Precompiled script failed to load. Attempting to reload the script with updated data. For more information, see the Microsoft Knowledge Base article, KB931846 (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=81885).
That Knowledgebase link talks about SP2 fixing the issue but we have SP2 already on the server. The sysdtslog90 table is just packed with these as each script inside each package is getting the same error. Looking at the system log the following were installed as part of windows update shortly before the errors started occuring:
- Update for Windows Server 2003 x64 Edition (KB936357)
- Security Update for Windows Server 2003 x64 Edition (KB926122)
- Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0: x64 (KB928416)
- Security Update for Microsoft .NET Framework, Version 2.0 (KB928365)
- Security Update for Excel 2003 (KB936507)
- Update for Outlook 2003 Junk Email Filter (KB936557)
I upgraded the OS on my SQL 2005 SP2 to Windows 2003 SP2. Everything still works fine but now Windows Update says that I need SQL 2005 SP2 again. I checked the version of SQL on the server and it's still SP2. Did the Windows service pack somehow downgrade parts of my SQL installation? I know I can probably just reinstall the SQL service pack but I was just curious...
I have an c# windows service, which is running on the same machine where my mssql server is installed. This service must be informed for each insert/update/delete event on one specific table.
My idea was to create an CLR Trigger for this table which can communicate with this service via .NET remoting. But the problem is, that the system.runtime.remoting assembly is not integrated within the mssql clr enviroment => i can't use remoting.
In the last step of installing the SQL Server 2005 Express edition I get the following error:

I am new to SQL Server. I tried to read as much as possible in newsgroups prior to this post. I have tried several different ways to install this without success. The last time I attempted to install as a local service and I unchecked hide advance configuration. I am running Windows XP SP2 with all the latest updates. Is there a solution to install this properly? Any help would be greatly appreciated!
I had a small power outage and after that, SQL Server (2000) is not starting. I press the start button, it looks like it tries to do something (since all the buttons get disabled) and then its back to square one. I tried this from command line: sqlservr.exe -c -f but it does not help either. I checked the SQL Server logs and this is what I found: 2007-08-08 10:05:09.63 spid3 Starting up database 'master'. 2007-08-08 10:05:09.63 spid3 Error: 823, Severity: 24, State: 6. 2007-08-08 10:05:09.63 spid3 08/08/07 10:05:09 Stack Overflow Dump not possible - Exception c00000fd E at 0x004436DD 2007-08-08 10:05:09.63 spid3 Address=4436dd Exception Code = c00000fd I tried to google but could not find a solid solution.
Dear Friends,I cannot start my SQL Server 2005. When I'm trying to conect to local database it's showing me error:TITLE: Connect to Server------------------------------Cannot connect to WIN2006.------------------------------ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: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: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 2)This error mean that server not started.When I read more details (error log in SQL Configuration Manager) I found that the source of the problem - "master" table was compressed. It should be decompressed to start server. What's this? I'm seeing this kind of error first time. Need your advise guys!
My SQL Server 7.0 was working for the last number of months until last night. When I came into the office this morning, it was down. I tried to restart it. It started and then shut itself down after about 10 seconds. I have tried to get the properties of the SQL Server, but I get an error message of "A connection could not be established to "the server name" - Communication link failure ConnectionWrite (WriteFile()).. Please verify SQL Server is running and check your SQL Server registration properties."
The computer has been rebooted, twice. SQL Server is set to automatically started on boot up.
I have a problem starting my SQL server. It all started when I had a database that has been trying to restore for days. I followed the instruction give by Kevin J McCarthy - (I did not follow the instruction correctly) - put a trace flag at start up flag 3608 -T3608. However, I did that within the Enterprise manager - under profile. Stopped the SQL server and tried to restart. It will not restart. I tried putting a /f flag at start up - this time under the NT service startup dialog box, I started the database, but I cannot access the SQL Server because of invalid login. In the NT event viewer, it has this message
Your profile was not successfully loaded, but you have been logged on with the default system profile. Please correct the problem and log off. (5)
I know I entered the correct login and password because I am the administrator. Please help!
