I've recently upgraded my PC from ME to XP and now have a multi-user setting in my computer. I've tried reinstalling SQL 7; it did install but the Server Manager is missing, so I couldn't start the server. (By the way, what I have is the stand-alone type). Whenever I try to start the query analyzer, I get this error message: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][Shared Memory]SQL Server does not exist or access denied. Whenever I try looking for the server manager in the start-up menu, it always says a .exe file (if I'm not mistaken the sqlmangr.exe) is missing or has been moved. What could be the problem? I'm just beginning to learn SQL so if anybody can help me, please.
After running virus cleaning software on my HD, I suddenly find my Enterprise Manager snap-in missing and fail to initialize. Is the MMC erased or damaged? What should I do? Reinstall SQL Server 2000 or repair it? Please advise. Thanks.
I'm trying to connect to DB2 database across a vpn. When I test locally there's a connection manager: "Native OLE DBMicrosoft OLE DB Provider for DB2" option that I assume will work. I actually need to do this on a remote computer that is able to authenticate with AD to connect to a couple other DBs, and on that install there're no DB2 connections to be found.
Any ideas on why the list of available connections on that install would be different? Do I have to put the drivers in the classpath then to get SSIS to pick them up?
Does anyone happen to know what authority is required to view the following in Enterprise Manager:
Database Maintenance Plans Current Activity SQL Server Logs
When I use EM to log onto SQL Server with a login that does not have sysadmin authority, I do not appear to have these options available when I expand the Management folder. I can find no reference to any specific authorities that are required in Books online and unable to find anything in the Knowledge Base about it either. I can't believe that sysadmin authority is needed to view these.
I have an SQL cluster on Windows 2003 with 2 drives (1 for dbs and 1 for logs). Both of these drives are accessible from Windows explorer.
In Enterprise Manager only the db drive appears as a location to house dbs and logs.
I can't work out how to get the second drive to appear and adding the path manual doesn't work as I end up with the other drive letter appending to the front eg "y:z:logs"
Has anyone seen this or have any ideas how to fix it?
Has anyone run across this before? I'm missing the Contents and Properties tab along with the button bar containing the "New Folder", "New Data Source", "Upload File" and "Show Details" buttons in the Report Manager. Also, which I think may be related, when I attempt to deploy a report I get the error: "A connection could not be made to the report server http://MyServer/Reports.
I insalled SQL 2000 server standard version on Windows 2000 server, then I applied SQL 2000 sp2 to it. Every step told me installation was successful.
Everything sounds working except following:
I lauch Enterprise manager, serverName / databaseName(ex. pubs) / Stored Procedure, then double click one of Stored Procedures, Stored Procedures properties window pop up. On the right top corner those three small buttons (minimize, resize and close) are missing. No way to close Stored Procedures properties window except using task manager to kill it. That drives me nut.
I am using SSRS 2005 for reporting. I am not able to see the "New Data-driven Subscription" button in Report Manager. But I am able to see "New Subscription".
Installed SQL Server 2008 with Reporting Services to a Windows Server 2008 box. Tried to open the Report Manager and had no tabs and no Site Settings link - just a blank home page. I am logged onto the server with local administrator rights, so it shouldn't be a permissions issue.
Thinking the installation was bad (IIS was not installed before installing SSRS), I uninstalled and re-installed SSRS after setting up IIS 7 on the server. Still the same issue - just a blank home page in report manager with no ability to add users or assign roles or see anything except the links for "Home", "My Subscriptions", and "Help".
IF someone can assist me. Everytime I load up enterprise manager the service manager turns off. And the enterprise manager can't connect to the local database. But everytime i turn it back on and try to connect again it shuts it off and around and around we go. Help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Trying to learn how to use Sql Server CE, Tutorial says to open server explorer, add connection, new connection, select data source as .net sql ce (words to that effect). On my visual studio, it ain't there and I can't figure out how to get it there. I have uninstall all of the Sql Ce stuff and reinstalled it. So I'm missing some key link. What are the magic incantations to get to first base?
Hi I am stuck while doing synchronization between SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server CE 2.0. getting an Error "Header information is either corrupted or missing."
My Specification is follow : Windows XP with SP2 Visual Studio 2005 Enterprise edition SQL Server 2000 (SP3a) SQL Server CE 2.0 Application is Smart Device application (Pocket PC 2003) using C#. Microsoft ActiveSync 4.5 IIS 5.1
I followed steps as per given in this URL : http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms839425.aspx#sql_serverce_replication_net_topic2I performed eeach steps successfully, My code is as per given below.
I am not getting whats going wrong. My Firewall is disable and i have not installed any antivirus softwares (including Norton internet Security....in many forums i got this suggestion but i think its not an issue,even though for solving this issue i performed new installation of Windows XP SP-2 )
I have an issue with one of my production servers. I have a few production servers, and they all have the same objects. I do not want to create custom objects for each one, rather keep them all standard.
However, due to environment issues, I have one which does not have any linked servers.
I have a proc which queries either locally or across the linked server depending on the value of a switch. I want to install this proc on the server with no linked servers but it obviously fails.
I can guarantee the proc will never be called with the switch 'on' on that particular server. We still want to install this proc and call it with a switch of 0.
Please can somebody come up with something really clever.
The proc goes something like this:
CREATE PROC WhatEver @Switch int AS IF @Switch = 1 BEGIN SELECT * FROM LinkedServer.Db.dbo.MyTable END ELSE BEGIN SELECT * FROM dbo.MyTable END
A user was created with a limited privilege under the USERS group. Once this user loged in the Report Manager he is acting like an Admin and Content Manager, though he is not given even a browser role.
What do u think that this guy is acting like a Super User evenif he is restricted to a browser role on the Report Manager ????????????
When I proposed start to use SQL Server 2005 for new VS 2005 web sites, one of my co-workers responded that we will update the old SQL Server 2000 databases to SQL Server 2005 when we are ready to use 2005 SQL Server.
Questions: 1. Any expected problems to upgrade old 2000 databases to new 2005 SQL Server? 2. I have installed both 2005/Management Studio Express and 2000/Enterprise Manager in my PC. Any expected problems when running both 2000 and 2005 SQL Server at the same database server? 3. What is the best configuration for running SQL Server 2005 when we have old 2000 databases? Upgade or not upgrade?
Hi all, This is my first message in this forum and I am a new bie to SQL server 2005.. I am trying to schedule the backup job for a database in 2005 and I am not able to figure out where it is.

I've got SQL Server 2005 Ent Ed 9.0.1399 and want to change mysecondary Log Shipping server into a primary. I've tried locating thesp_change_secondary_role, but can't seem to find it. Has it beenreplaced with another stored procedure? If so, which are the proceduresto run?On SQL Server 2000, the following were the steps listed:1. Transfer logins2. Run sp_change_primary_role3. Run sp_change_secondary_role4. Run sp_change_monitor_role (this exists in SQL Server 2005)5. Run sp_resolve_logins3 & 5 are what I'd expect to perform if the primary isn't available.N.I.T.I.N.
Our production servers run Win 2003 x64. There is SQL Server 2005 x64 and Integration Services installed (both build 9.0.3175). SSIS is working between SQL Servers. Now I have to import Excel but can't find the 32-bit version of dtexec. There is definite only the 64-bit version of dtexec installed. Why does SSIS installation don't install the whole SSIS functionality? What do we have to install to get the full SSIS functionality including 32-bit? We can't try and error on a running production server.
I am a novice at SQl Server, so apologise in advance if you think this is a really stupid question.
I have a windows XP laptop with Visual Studio 2005. I installed SQl Server 2005 Developer Edition but do not see the SQl Server Management Studio anywhere. The only thing in Programs/ SQL Server 2005 is SQL Server Configuration Manager. I then uninstalled it & installed SQL Server Express but encountered the same issue.
I would like to install the Developer Edition if possible. I have tried uninstalling & reinstalling a few times but it does not work.
Could someone please help in resolving this. Appreciate it!
On one of our machines, all of the SQL Server 2000components except for the main Server component (SQL Servercore) itself were installed (Management tools, etc) a while agoand everything was running fine. Now I go and add/install theServer component and then Service Pack 3a.It seems that Service Manager won't start up (I get an hourglass cursor)and now I find that Enterprise Manager won't run as well. No errormessages appeared and I don't think I saw anything unusual inthe log file.However, I can use Enterprise Manager on a differentmachine and connect to the database (so the databaseitself seems to be running).Any suggestions as to what the problem might be and how tofix it? I like to see if I can repair this without havingto do a reinstall.Thanks.PF
I have a curious problem. I have a development environment SQL Server 6.5 sp 5a and a production environment sp 4 When I view the performance monitor in the development environment I can see the SQL Server object counter but on the production environment I can see all object except sql server objects. What could the problem be ? Add chart on the production server shows me all ojects other that SQL Server and the same is not true for development !
I have a 2003 Server which has two Named Instances of SQL Server 2000.
I need to add a third Named Instance, but when I logged onto the Server this morning, I noticed that all of the 'Microsoft SQL Server' Entries are missing from the START/PROGRAMS menu !! Enterprise Manager, BOL... everything!! The SQL Server Service Manager is running and both of my Instances are up and running (this is a production box). I can launch Enterprise Manager from MMC.EXE in WINDOWSSystem32 folder... very weird!!!!
In my Add/Remove Programs, I see MS SQL Server listed Twice.. one time for each of the two named Instances.
Has anyone ever seen this before??? Do you think it's safe to run SQL Server Installation to Install a Third Instance on this box???
I have a SQL 2000 sp3 installation on a Active - Active cluster. I wanted to create a performance alert, but when I tried, the Sql Server Performance Condition Alert choice is missing from the drop down menu on the new alert setup screen. Does anyone know why? Any help will be greatly appreciated.:confused:
Wierd issue of a missing master database - wierd because I would have thought this was a newbie topic but I've found nothing for it. I googled and had a 'decent' look through this forum and only found a bunch of topics on 'how to restore master database'.
I wouldn't have thought I need to restore the master database because my SSMS works fine and I can query the master database. I can also see it in the drop down list of available databases in the Query Designer toolbar. The problem is just that I can't see it in the list of databases. I can see all the other databases I've created, and I can see the master database in the DATA folder. But not in the SSMS.
Today I have a very similar situation, only today I am dealing with missing text data, not numeric data.
DECLARE @MissingTextData TABLE ( RowID int ,UserID int , EmailAddress varchar(20) ,StreetAddress varchar(20)
[code]...
I would like to fill in the NULL columns with data from the other row, and then select the one row that is filled with all data. I was able to use MAX() for a numeric value, but I am really stumped on the text data. Everything that I have tried is not working.
This is SQL Server 2008R2. On the SQL Server Configuration I'm unable to see SQL Server Browser. But when I check the services I can see the SQL Browser running.
Under SQL Server Configuration Manager > SQL Server Services
1. Full text 2. SQL Server (Default) 3. SQL Agent (Default)
But I'm unable to see the SQL Browser services here. What is the remedy?
