I am a beginner with regard to SQL Server, having previously used Access 2000 databases in my programs.
Recently I installed VB 2005 Express and SQL Server 2005 Express on both my desktop computer and my laptop and have been working at migrating one of my earlier programs, written in VB6 /Access 2000, to VB Express 2005.net/SQL Server 2005.net.
Whilst my desktop version works well, I found that, for some unknown reason, SQLEXPRESS refuses to start automatically on my laptop, despite the fact that it is set that way. (It will start if I open the Configuration Manager and start it from there.) Since the configuration settings on my laptop are the same as those that work on my desktop, I cannot understand why the laptop version doesn't work.
The SQL ERRORLOG shows: Error is 3414, Severity 21, State 2 and says: "An error occurred during recovery, preventing the database 'model' (database ID 3) from restarting." Just prior to this, I get a warning: "did not see LP_CKPT_END".
Any thoughts why this might be and how I can fix this?
Because of numerous problems trying to get sqlexpress working, I uninstalled it with the intention of reinstalling (via Add or Remove Programs). However, now when I try to reinstall it, I get a message that the I am not making a changes so it won't let me install it.
I do have sql server 2005 developer's edition installed; is that the reason? and does that mean I cannot have both installed on the same machine?
I have just had to reinstall all my SQLServer instances (SQL2005 Standard, BCM2007, and SQLEXPRESS).
The first two have started fine, but I cannot get the SQLExpress instance to start. When I start in the Management Studio, the error I get is:-
"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 Loating Server/Instance Specified) (Microsoft SQL Server)."
Can anyone tell me what I have to do to correct this problem:?
I have looked in the Add or Remove Programs window and cannot see ANY instance relating to SQL Server Express 2005.
I created an app in vs2005 and everything works perfectly in the development environment. I've published the site to my local IIS, but when I try to log in, it doesn't allow me. I'm assuming that it has something to do with the db not working correctly. Unfortunately I don't know how to debug to see where the problem is coming from now that it's running on my 'live' IIS. Does anyone have any ideas on what could be the problem. I have some settings in the web.config, which have been working perfectly. <appSettings><add key="UserName" value=""/><add key="Password" value=""/><add key="Server" value="xxxxxxsqlexpress"/><add key="Database" value="xxxxx_xxx_users"/><add key="UseTrusted" value="True"/></appSettings> I had a local guy at the office here saying that the ASP.NET user needs to be granted access to sqlexpress2005, but I wasn't sure on how to do that. So all in all, My app works in Visual Studio 2005, and not in IIS. There are no errors when loading various pages. They all load correctly and without error. It seems that it's just when I try to do anything with the DB. Thanks for the help. I appreciate it!
I have a problem with a server where for some reason when it is rebooted the SQLAgent service does not start automatically. You have to go into control panel, services and start it, even the it is set to Automatic.
I installed SQL Sp2 and at the same time took Carbon Copy off. No when the machine comes up neither SQL Server or the Agent will not come up. If I go to Service manager I can start both just fine. Nothing in either log to show why. Anyplace or any thoughts
I have downloaded and installed the trial version of MS Visual Studio 2005 Team System. The installation was successful. However, I am not able to start SQLEXPRESS using the SQL Server Configuration Manager. It shows me SQLEXPRESS but when I right click and select Start it tries to start the service and after some time gives the following error
"The request failed or the service did not respond in a timely fashion. Consult the event log or other applicable error logs for details."
The event log shows the following errors:
1. FCB::Open: Operating system error 5(Access is denied.) occurred while creating or opening file 'c:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDATAmastlog.ldf'. Diagnose and correct the operating system error, and retry the operation.
2. FCB::Open failed: Could not open file c:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDATAmastlog.ldf for file number 2. OS error: 5(Access is denied.).
I tried enabling remote connections but still got the same error.
I had a working VS Express 2005 system 2 years ago and have not done any development on it since. Recently I wanted to enhance the application I had developed and so updated my system to VS EXpress 2008 and now can't start my database service. What do I need to do to get access to my database again?
I am running on an up to date Windows XP Pro system
If my laptop goes into standby with the MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS service running, the service will not start again. I get the following error messages in my log:

I have installed reporting services from SQL Express SP1 package. OS is Windows 2000 SP4. Just after installation "Reporting services" service has StartMode=Automatic and LogOnAS=LocalSystem as shown in SQL Server Configuration Manager. When system is rebooted reporting services state is Stopped and there is 2 errors in System log: 1. Timeout (30000 milliseconds) waiting for the SQL Server Reporting Services (REPS) service to connect. 2. The SQL Server Reporting Services (REPS) service failed to start due to the following error: The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion. If i select "start" from service's context menu then it starting normally and it's state becomes Running. What can i do to make reporting services starting automatically on system load?
We are deploying an application using SQL Server Express to a wide variety of desktop and laptop machines. We are currently trying to decide whether we should install the SQL Server instance service to start automatically at startup or not. In the latter case, our application would start and stop the service.
Starting automatically will make our app load more quickly, which is important to our users. However, our support team is concerned that leaving the service running will leave our databases vulnerable to becoming "suspect" if, for example, a laptop user's battery dies suddenly. Of course this will always be a problem if the app is running, but our support team believes that having the service running all the time will increase the chances of this happening. One reason for their concern is that an older version of the software used MSDE which was running all the time, and they saw a good number of suspect database issues.
What is the best practice for leaving the service running, especially when there are a lot of laptop users?

SQL job doesn't start nor write on the view history. I have comfirm this by creating a new job with query and run it manually or schedule automatic run.
select * from sysdatabases
It points to database master and using the same account sql server agent uses it to start. This account has sys admi rights. I have check for blocking but thre is not. Anyone has ever has a similar issue like this
My custom data component is an error handler that processes data and then calls
ComponentMetaData.FireError in ProcessInput() to send the error data to the event handler per row. Everything works fine during debug/release mode. However when I run it using "Start without Debug" no errors are thrown. My event handler still catches stock component errors, so something must be wrong in this custom component. Am I suppose to set a property or something?

I've exported surface area configuration settings from a server and tried importing them onto another server. The remote connection settings are imported but the SQLBrowser service remains Disabled. Am I doing something wrong?
The command line command I ran (in the C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90Shared directory) is "sac.exe in sacconfig.xml".
I have created an installation application which will install the application with SQL Express and .NET Framework 2.0.
If i install this application in a Fresh system(i.e which is not having SQL Express), it is installing the application with new database instance successfully.
But if i try to install the same in a system which is already having SQL Express, throwing "Object reference exception" because it is not able to create the new database instance.

Hi I'm pretty new to all of this. I downloded a starter kit and am a bit confised as to SQLExpress. I have SQL Server already installed and just wondering what the option are. I am currently using Visual Web Developer Express Edition and in the config file data source is SQLExpress and can't go any further. I don't want to mess with my current setup so just want to get some sugestions first. Anyway hope this makes sense. Thanks GP

I am new to this forum . I am running through few problems for sqlserver account settings .
I) My registery key entry for MSSQLserver just has a client folder . 2) My sql server configuration manager just has sqlserver 2005 services , native client configuration and 2005 network configuration.
I can't see any server name or databases under it.
3)I normally work on EMS lite so I can see my ./SQLEXPRESS as server and databases under it and i can create logins etc ..I assigned db_owner role to one of my recent created database. but when I try to connect it says :
The user is not associated with sqlserver connection.
5) i have sqlserver express service running, vss and sql server browser running.
I googled and searched for the solution and it says the authentication mode should be turned to mix mode form win authentication.
But from where. Have i missed some installation .I am able to connect to my other database from EMS.
I am trying to write an application for a MSSQL database, using SQL Express,and Visual Studio (Express edition)I tried to connect to an existing database (named testing) but to no avail.Visual Studio claims the database does not exist.Any ideas?TIA--Q: What is the difference between a mathematician and a philosopher?A: The mathematician only needs paper, pencil, and a trash bin for hiswork - the philosopher can do without the trash bin...
Installation of SP2 in step "Feature Selection" shows SQLEXPRESS unchecked and can''t be edited/checked. I tried it many times on different servers with different OSes, etc
Does it mean that SP2 for Expres Edition should be downloaded and applieŠ² separately?
Hi Guys, I have a website with multiple pages and when a user signs in it puts a 1 in the database and their online status is shown to the rest of the members, if they use my signout button which I have on each page, it signs them out and updates the database with a 0 in the process, so shows them as then offline, my problem is some people forget to sign out and just close the browser window or begin surfing elsewhere. Is there a way to have sql server 2000 automatically change the field in the database after 30 minutes of inactivity. Or is there a way to automatically sign users out as they either click on the X in the browser window, or as they leave my site. Any help would be appreciated. Cheers
Some of my jobs hang at FTP step for several hours until some one kills the FTP (it's a perl process) on the box. Is there a way to find how much time a particular step of the job is executing? and know it by somehow if it's hanging at that step?? If we know this,I want to kill the perl process(FTP) on the box in an automated way whenever the job hangs! Any ideas welcome!! Thanks. :-)
