I am trying to install SQL server 2000 on my laptop which has vista as OS. I am not able to install it , somehow it fails. Can anyone please suggest me how can i accomplish this.
A client just purchased a new notebook, pre-installed with Vista. He says he is having trouble installing SQL Server 2000 (database and client tools). I am not certain (yet) if this is the standard edition or the desktop version.
What, if any, are known compatibility issues between SQL 2000 and Vista?
I want to choose between Windows Vista editions. Please help me I should go for Windows Vista Business or Windows Vista Home Premium as I intend to install SQL Server 2005.
I have just started using SQL Server Compact Edition. I have developed a test application just to see if it fits my needs but found something extremely weird.
It's so strange that I guess I'm doing something wrong...
I create the database programmatically from my application if it doesn't exist or open the existing one in the same directory.
The question is that... When I create a DB from Windows Vista, I can use it normally in that computer and on any other Vista OS computer... but this DB won't work on an XP or 2003! The opposite applies as well, DBs generated from the same application running on XPs won't work when opening them on Vista. I.E. it seems that DBs generated in those OS are not compatible.
I'm using v3.1 from a c# .Net2 application. I'm not using encryption or anything, just the simplest ConnectionString.
The exception is thrown then I connect and its Message is "Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt".
Have you ever seen this? I there something I could test/change?
I tested my program (written in VB.Net VS 2005/.Net Framework 2.0 with db SQL Express) using Application Verifier for Vista Compatibility and I got this error :
Is SQL Server 7.0 compatible with the Windows 200 operating system? Arethere certain patches or service packs that need to be applied to SQL tomake this compatibility work? Thanks.Larry
Are there any known issues with using RDO with SQL Server 2005?
My company is in the process of updating our SQL Server 7 database to SQL Server 2005. Most of our applications are several years old and written using RDO to access the database. I have since started the daunting task of updating all the applications to ADO, but it's only about a quarter of the way done. We need to update the database ASAP, but we cannot wait until all the applications have been updated to ADO.
While testing the applications (written in VB6) against the new SQL Server 2005 database, I have come across a problem with the RDO queries not returning the correct data. The query returns 4 records. In the SQL7, it properly shows 4 for RowCount and 4 records are present in the recordset (as seen by looping through the recordset using rs.MoveNext). In SQL2005, it properly shows 4 for RowCount, but looping through the recordset shows that the recordset only contains 1 record. The problem seems to be linked to a Left Join in the Query. (see below) Table1 has a column that has a RecID for Table2. In the case where the Table2RecID column in Table1 is 0, the row is just not added to the recordset even though it increments the RowCount.
Code:
SELECT * FROM Table1 As T1 LEFT JOIN Table2 As T2 On T1.Table2RecID = T2.RecID
I converted the query to ADO and it ran fine with no problems. The issue has something to do with SQL Server 2005 and RDO.
We are going to upgrade to windows 2000 in the near future. We currently use sql server 6.5. Can anyone tell me if SQL 6.5 will run on windows 2000? Also will SQL server v7 run on windows 2000 or do I need to upgrade to SQL 2000?
I am a beginner with SQL Server and SharePoint. I am trying to migratethe database to other servers that may be running differentplatforms. I know that the other servers have SharePoint so they arerunning SQL Server 2005, SQL Server 2003, and Access. Is there a way Icould get data from my system (with SQL Server 2005) to another system(that may be running 2005, 2003, or Access) without affecting my dataor SharePoint workflow? I want the people running the other servers tobe able to access the same data and see the same workflow I do. Thanksin advance!
I have an SQL database that I need to detach from an SQL2005 server and reattach to an SQL 2000 database. I tried to set the Compatibility level from SQL Server 2005 (90) to SQL Server 2000 (80). This did not work
Hi, don't know if anyone can help me but I desperately need to roll a report out which relies on an SQL 7.0 datasource.
Current situation - Reporting Services 2000 up and running on an SQL 2000 box - no problems getting reports to run from the native machine but I cannot get the thing to make a hop to our SQL 7.0 box.
I've created three data sources - OLEDB, Native and ODBC. For the OLEDB and Native I am getting a DATABASEPROPERTYEX error - I assume here that reporting services is polling the SQL 7.0 box with an unsupported method.
For ODBC I CANNOT get the parameters to work - I've read all sorts of stuff about using unnamed parameters, so I've put a ? in the query and I'm getting Invalid parameter number and invalid parameter number errors (I suspect it is getting a bit confused, but then so am I).
So I thought I'd try a linked server, sure enough with a fixed parameter I can get through the linked server no problem, but again I can't work out the syntax/series of events needed to use a parameter with this, I'm starting to suspect it can't be done with an Exec statement.
So - first question - is there any way around the DBPROPERTY EX problem so I can use OLEDB/SQL Client connectivity and secondly please can someone explain what exactly has to go in the parameters box when I press ... on the data source box, 'cos it's doing my head in.
Hi. I am using visual studio 2005 with Sql Server Express Edition. I haven't install sql server 2005 Professional edition on my machine. It works fine. The connection string is:
You can see I haven't hardcoded machine name and there is no absolute path. I have open the website on another machine and it works fine. Now , i have open this project on third machine but it doesn't work and gives 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: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)"
I think there is some problem with sql server configuration . Please help me in this regards. I will be very thankful to you.
We have the following trace flags present in startup in SQL server 2000:
809 1204 3605 3913
Need to understand if these should be required in SQL Server 2005 + SP2 version. I have run the upgrade advisor tool which indcates that the behaviour of some flags has changed and some other TFs are no longer applicable. Hence, I want to know about the above mentioned TFs.
Hi, When using an Access Project 2002 connected with SQL Server Express in OLE DB it's impossible to work in creation mode. A message explains that this Access version is not compatible with this SQL version. Is there a service pack ?
Hello All, I am in the process of upgrading my current database in SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005. I have finished my analysis using the upgrade advisor and have found a lot of SPs having upgrade related issues. From what I estimate I think it will take around 3-4 weeks to resolve all of those issues. I wanted a quicker way to upgrade my database since we have very little time for the final release. The main reason for upgrade to 2005 was use of new features like Database Mirroring and/or peer to peer replication alongwith the Partitioning features and the new T-SQL enhancements.
The question I wanted to ask was does the compatibility level 80 of SQL Server 2005 supports these new features. From what I have read on the KB article at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/822400 is that mirroring is supported in any compatibility level, but there is no specific mention on the peer to peer thing. Also when I personally tried using the New Partitioning Features of 2005 on the database having compatibility 80, it worked fine. Also other features like SQLCLR and TRY...CATCH works fine. One thing I observed was that new T-SQL statements like PIVOT/UNPIVOT is not supported
It will be nice if someone can give out the entire list of features that will be supported in the compatibility Level 80 and also the list of the ones that are not supported.

I have just upgraded a test server from sql server 2008 sp3 to sql server 2014 inplace upgrade. The compatability level of master database has not upgraded. It was showing 90 and the rest of system databases got updated to 120. Is it fine to update the compatibility level of master database ? Any precautions need to taken??
I installed SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition. When i create a new database (using the "New Database" dialog) i cannot set the new database's compatibility level to "SQL Server 2005(90)" because this option is not in the "dropdown list". the only items shown are: "SQL Server 7.0(70)" and "SQL Server 2000(80)". I set the owner to "sa". How do i get "SQL Server 2005(90)" in my "compatibility level" drop down list? Is this an installation option that i missed? Thanks in advance for any assistance!
Not sure if this gets fixed on a restart, but the Backward Compatibility upgrade/piece failed on service pack 1 install for SQL Server 2005. Here is the log output. Anyone experience this?

We have recently migrated quite a databases around 20 from SQL 2000 and 2005 to SQL server 2008R2.
I am using Ola's script for index maintenance for those with compatibility level above 80 as i heard it supports that way.
Hence separated in 2 way job where for those with compatibility level 80, we are running job with below query on each database with 80 as compared
USE ABC GO EXEC sp_MSforeachtable @command1="print '?' DBCC DBREINDEX ('?', ' ', 80)" GO EXEC sp_updatestats GO
I am not sure if this is the only way in for those databases, because we are seeing the database getting because of that somewhere using above query.( seems log file filling very rapidly).
But above is not the case with those databases , with compatibility 90 and above.
Ok guys, I am trying to install Sql server 2005 on Vista but I am still stuck with this warning message in the System Configuration Check during Sql server 2K5 installation :
SQL Server Edition Operating System Compatibility (Warning) Messages * SQL Server Edition Operating System Compatibility
* Some components of this edition of SQL Server are not supported on this operating system. For details, see 'Hardware and Software Requirements for Installing SQL Server 2005' in Microsoft SQL Server Books Online.
Now, I know I need to install SP2 but how the hell I am going to install SP2 if Sql server 2005 doesn't install any of the components including Sql server Database services, Analysus services, Reporting integration services( only the workstation component is available for installation)?
Any work around for this issue?
P.S.: I didn't install VS.NET 2005 yet, can this solve the problem?
I am trying to install SQL Server Express - (the non ADV version) and get the following error.
"An installation package for the product Microsoft SQL Server Native Client cannot be found. Try the installation again using a valid copy of the installation package 'sqlncli_x64.msi'".
I have 64 bit Vista Ultimate running on an HP dv9000.
I am using the download from the bottom of the download page for SSX where it says 64 bit version.
Prior to this I got the. "64-bit ASP.net is registered. Required 32-bit ASP.NET to install Microsoft Reporting services 2005(32-bit)." messagd during the pre-install scan. From what I gather in the posts, the reporting issue is different from my installation package problem.
I have been trying to prove a point to friends about how far you can go with SSX but am having no luck installing it. This whole process took 1 hour in XP but I've been stymied for 2 days.
I would appreciate being pointed at the right downloads for what seems to be a simple install.
Hi all Pros I am transfering from windows2003 server and MS SQL 2000 to Windows Vista and SQL Express ...... Before I allways created a database manually and I could allways use as many databases I needed so in that way I could have several versions of a database for a certain software during development. Can you use separeted databasenames when developing in SQL Express? I am using a dotnetnuke installation file and inside the project there is a file /App_Data/Database.mdf should this file be renamed everytime I make a new testinstallation or setting up a separate dev environment /Johan

I am having problems installing the SQL Server Compact Server Tools on my Vista laptop to allow me to connect my Mobile Device running SQL Server Compact directly to my SQL Server 2005 database through IIS.
I have done this successfully with an XP machine so I'm not sure if it is Vista problem or not.
I have installed SQL Server 2005 SP2. When I try to install the replication server tools (Sqlce30setupen.msi), in "System Configuration Check" window I get a failure on "SQL Server requirement" that says: "You must first install the Replication Components for SQL Server 2000 SP 3a or higher or the SQL Server 2005 Replication Components" and the client components are full instaled in my computer.
Can't connect to local server instance MSSQLSERVER in SQL Server Management Studio (SQL2005 sp2/Vista).
SQL Server Configuration Manager reports SQL Server2005 services: SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) Running. This would indicate the name of the SQL server is "MSSQLSERVER" correct? I chose "default" instance during the install and that is the name it gave itself.
I tried connecting to the server using the following for the Server Name: MSSQLSERVER and .MSSQLSERVER neither works.
The only thing that works for my installation is just plain "." (no quotes) and nothing else. Can this be correct because I can't find any reference to this. Thanks.
Hello, I am trying to install SQL Server Enterprise 2005 on Windows Vista Enterprise. The installation has finished "successfully", but when I am trying to open the MS SQL manager, I see that the manager has not installed.
Hi all, I'm a part time Web Developer and have recently upgraded to Vista Ultimate. I used to run SQL Server 2000 on XP without a hitch. Obviously I have had to upgrade to SQL Server 2005 to get it to run on Vista, I see Microsoft provide the free SQL Server Express, I tried that but I could not get it to connect to any databases out on the internet. (is this correct?)
So I downloaded the SQL Server 2005 Evaluation, installed then ran the Service Pack over the top. Now my problem is that I dont seem to have any access to anything that looks like a Management console for me to connect to any datatbases.
In my Start/All Programs list I have Microsoft Server 2005 but it only has a shortcut to Configuration tools, nothing else!
Even in Express there was a shortcut to some sort of interface that allowed me to setup DB's etc, but I can't find it in this version.
I am used to using Enterprise Manager from 2000 could someone please advise me on what I need to run or if I have missed installing something or have downloaded the incorrect version or something!
I have 2 networked PC's both running vista ultimate
1st is Laptop and is running its own SQL Server at laptoplaptopSQL 2nd is Desktop and is running its own SQL Server at desktopdesktopSQL
Now both machines have seperate windows login accounts.
When I go SQL Server management studio I go to browse and each machine can see the other machines SQL Server, but when I go to login I get SQL Login falied for users" The user is not associaed with a trusted SQL server connection".
So I then go to logins new login and try to add my other pc's user account. The problem I see is that when I go to search and then location it only shows its own PC's location and not the location of my other networked pc? So if I am on Desktop and in my theory want to add laptopuser to the desktop SQL Server logins I get:
"create failed for login laptopuser
An exception occurred while executing Transact SQL statement laptopuser is not a valid windows NT name. give the complete name
I have visual studio 2008 sql express, vista ultimate is on my computer however I have not installed sql express on my computer I wish to install sql standard 2005 sp1 I have read microsoft's article 934164 before installing sql standard I have a couple of questions installing sql server standard edition see sql-articles.com -installing sql 2005
sql instances screen- can I choose default installation? sql services screen do I need to choose domain name(I am a small business, I do not own a server, I wish to use a third party to use sql reporting services . I have not registered my domain name
Windows authentication- I wish to use mixed mode. I wish to configure user account later by stopping sql services and then installing sql sp2 (after windows authentication screen) described in microsoft article 934164 do I need to configure the server?(next screen after windows authentication) I want to avoid a system reboot...... Is there anyway that I can make sure all the parts are installed on sql server and sql sp2? Is it adviseable to configure my administrative account at the end of sql sp2? How do this work? I just want to be prepared...... Thank you
