SQL Default Instance Fail To Start

Nov 13, 2007

Hi,

I am new to this forum and new to SQL, hope someone can help me. TIA

I have SQL 2000 running on the windows 2000 server. The program reside on the E drive and the data reside on the D drive, my system files drive C got corrupted and gave me the blue screen of death, so I had to reload it from back up, but in doing so, my SQL "Local" default instance fail to load after I got the server back up and running. My other instances are running fine except for the Local. Is their a way to bring that back? or do I have to reload SQL default instance ?

Thanks

Migrating From SQL2K Named Instance To SQL2K5 Default Instance

Feb 19, 2007

Hi, I have a task in hand to migrate (upgrade) from SQL2K named instance to SQL2K5 default instance. There are many intranet applications touching current SQL2K. I would like to perform this upgrade such that I don't have to touch any application code - meaning I don't have to change the connectionstring to point to new Default instance. How can I achieve this?

So, in otherwords, here is what I want to achieve:

Current Server: SQL2K: SERVER_AINSTANCE_A (named instance)

Upgraded Server: SQL2K5: SERVERB (default instance)

If I have both default, I could achive this by setting up DNS alias after migration done so that any call for SERVER_A would point to SERVER_B. But in my case, I don't have SERVER_A, I have named instance. Is there any solution?

Regards,

Vipul

Named Instance Problems (Default Of 7.0/2000 Instance)

Oct 10, 2001

I am trying to set up a Named Instance of SQL 2000 on the same machine that has a default instance of SQL 7.0. The setup always completes and I am able to register the Named Instance of the SQL Server with which it was installed on. However, when I try to connect the users to the database, with both windows and SQL authentication, I receive a SQL server not found error. I have tried an alias setup as well as physically specifying the port number in settup up an ODBC connection.
Has anyone ran into similar problems?
Also, has anyone been able to successfully complete the process as mentioned above?

Move SQL2005 From Default Instance To Named Instance

Mar 2, 2007

I have a server with sql server 2005 installed as the default instance -- I have a piece of software that needs SQL2000 to be the default instance. Is there a way other than install new sql2005 named instance and move databases to rename my SQL2005 instance from <machinename> to <machinename>sql05 for example?

Migrating From Named Instance To Default Instance

Oct 30, 2007

I installed SQL Server 2005 recently on a cluster. I didn't go for the default instance and instead I named the instance option. Now I would like to migrate everything from the named instance to the default instance, which I haven't yet installed.

Is this an easy process? What about the logins and the maintenance plans and jobs? Is there anything else I need to be aware of?

Create A Named Instance On Top Of A Default Instance

Apr 13, 2007

Hi

I've never had to do this, but when I downloaded the Web Workflow Approvals Starter Kit, it requested that I install the database into a User Instance of .SQLEXPRESS.

Now the problem is, I've installed it onto a default instance, so I was wondering whether you can create a named instance on top of a default instance... and if so, how would you do that?

Cheers

Connection String For Default Instance Of SQL Server 2005, On A Box Also Running A Named Instance Of SQL Server 2000

Nov 15, 2007

The box I am trying to connect to is running two instances of SQL Server.
There is a SQL Server 2005 instance which is the default. There is a SQL Server 2000 instance which is named 'SQLSERVER'.
 I can connect to the SQL Server 2000 instance no problem:<add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPCSQLSERVER;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" />
However,  I am having trouble connecting to the Default SQL Server 2005 instance. I have tried:
<add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPC;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" />
 but it doesn't work. I have tried explicitly setting SQL Server 2005 to use port 1434 (as SQL Server 2000 is running on port 1433), and then used:
<add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPC,1434;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" />
but this doesn't work either.
 
Am I mssing something here? Any help much appreciated
Thanks...

Pb Fail Over Automatic With One Instance Alias With Data Mirroring

Oct 25, 2006

Hello,

I've got a question about failover with the database mirroring.

I have 3 servers, 2 with SQL 2005 and 1 with SQL Express as witness.

After getting some problems to install database mirroring with Windows authentification, i had to create an authentification by certificate.

All goes well but my problem is about my primary instance SQL alias.

The alias on the primary doesn't follow on the secondary when the primary is down.

I've searched on forums and in the internet SQL web sites, but i didn't find anything.

I create another alias on the secondary but i don't know how to modify it in T-SQL...

I would like to know if there's any solution to modify an SQL instance alias by transact-SQL? or if anyone has already install on its servers, a fail over automatic with one instance alias with data mirroring in T-SQL?

Thank you all for your help...

SQL Server 2005 Instance Can't Start With TCP/IP

Oct 8, 2006

I can't get an instance of SQL Server 2005 to start using TCP/IP.

The issue is pretty basic: I have a local SQL Server 2005 that I can get to run and connect to it using Named Pipes.

The problem is that from a remote machine, although I can connect to it using Named Pipes, ASP.NET can't connect to it (when I'm in design mode, I can connect to the SQL server to configure Data Sources, but at run-time, it refuses to work).

So, I tried to switch to TCP/IP. I can't get it to work on the local machine. I get the following errors:

SQL Server could not spawn FRunCM thread. Check the SQL Server error log and the Windows event logs for information about possible related problems.

TDSSNIClient initialization failed with error 0xd, status code 0x1.



I've looked up these errors, and most of them are basic "make sure protocols are enabled, make sure VIA is disabled, etc." but those aren't it.

Any ideas?

TIA

Named Instance: SSIS Service Won't Start

Dear Experts,

I am running a named instance of SQL-Server 2005 SP2 on Win2003 with two local partitions C: and F:
The TCP settings for this instance have ecplicitly been set to use the port 1433.

I have tried different logons (NetworkService, LocalSystem, DomainAdmin).

The service still refuses to start. There is no detailed message in the event log just that the service didn't respond in a reasonable time, doh!

No Default SQL Instance On Install?

May 5, 2006

Problem: When the application installs it requires SQL Express
Server 2005. If it does not exist it will install it or
rollback. -> continue installation -> When the form
attempts to locate an SQL Instance on a machine that has not had SQL
server or any components connected before it shows up as
<null>. I need to have access to the server(s) instances in
order to build the application database inside SQL. Am I using
the wrong approach with SQLDMO? Is there adifferent method
to access the installed SQL Express 2005 connection string?

Current code to locate SQL Instances:

try
{


////////////////////////////////////////


// Search and List SQL Server Instances


////////////////////////////////////////

//set cursor to thinking/hourglass


System.Windows.Forms.Cursor.Current =
System.Windows.Forms.Cursors.AppStarting;

//begin


ArrayList aServers = new ArrayList();


SQLDMO.ApplicationClass acServers = new SQLDMO.ApplicationClass();
//loop through the servers found


for (int iServerGroupCount = 1; iServerGroupCount <=
acServers.ServerGroups.Count; iServerGroupCount++)
{


for (int iServerCount = 1; iServerCount <=
acServers.ServerGroups.Item(iServerGroupCount).RegisteredServers.Count;
iServerCount++)
{


aServers.Add(acServers.ServerGroups.Item(iServerGroupCount).RegisteredServers.Item(iServerCount).Name);
}
}


//add the servers to the drop down box
if (aServers.Count < 1)
{


string NotExist = "<No Servers Found>";


cboServers.Items.Add(NotExist);



cboServers.SelectedIndex = 0;


btnSQLDataBaseCheckDB.Enabled = false;

}
else
{


cboServers.Items.AddRange(aServers.ToArray());


//select the first item in the array index to display


cboServers.SelectedIndex = 0;
}
}
catch (Exception ServerException)
{


MessageBox.Show(ServerException.Message);
}





Slightly stuck at the moment with this. Any tips or leads in the right direction would be greatly appreciated.

Unable To Start An .mdf Instance Under A Specific Debuging Mode.

Aug 21, 2007

I have an ASP.NET project that uses a ASPNETDB.MDF file. This file is attached with a SQL Server Express everytime when I run the application, include debuging session. There are two debugging modes under Visual Studio 2005, through WebDev.WebServer or IIS. Both ways worked fine with this project until yesterday. Right now, whenever I try to debug it with WebDev.WebServer, it will show me an error:
Failed to generate a user instance of SQL Server due to a failure in starting the process for the user instance. The connection will be closed.
But if I debug it with IIS it works fine. Also, using the same machine and same installation of Visual Studio 2005 I can debug another project with WebDev.WebServer, that also uses a .mdf file (a different file). So, seems to me I jsut have problem with one mode and one project. The only thing that I did yesterday that I think may be relevant was that I reinstalled Visual Studio 2005 SP1 to fix another issue. Anyone has an idea? Thanks!

No Longer Need Default Instance Of SQL Server

Jul 23, 2005

Currently I have a server that has two instances of SQL Server that areboth heavily used. We are moving the databases that are on the defaultinstance of this server to a new server. Since the old server willonly need one instance (the current named instance) of SQL Server isthere a good way to remove the default instance and make the namedinstance the default? If this change is possible will the name of thecurrent named instance need to be changed? Will all of the programscurrently accessing the named instance need to change their connectionstring?

Cannot Connect To A Default Express Instance

Feb 5, 2007

When I try to connect to a default Express instance in Management Studio at the machine (Windows XP SP2) where the instance is installed, I'm getting the following error:

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) (Microsoft SQL Server)

What does provider: SQL Network Interfaces mean? Does it mean the Shared Memory, Named Pipes and TCP/IP?

Additional information:
1. The following Network Protocols are enabled: Shared Memory, Named Pipes, TCP/IP thru Configuration Manager
2. SQL Server Express default instance is running using NT
AUTHORITYNetworkService.
3. SQL Server Browser service is not running. I believe this is not needed unless I want to connect to the instance from another machine.
4. Has tried to disable Windows Firewall but I believe it should not be matter in this particular case since this is within the same machine.
5. Can connect to the instance in ODBC Administrator using System DSN thru Named Pipes or TCP/IP.

Can such error caused by not having sufficient memory so the system is running kind of slow?
