I'm
having difficulties when connecting to our SQL server 2000 from my SQL
Server Mgmt Studio 2005. I can't create tables and columns due to
permission errors. But from 2000 (on a different machine) it works
fine. *Sometimes* even when I log in with my AD account it won't let me
in and complains that user 'null' is not authorized to log in...
Anyway, I've installed both SP1 and SP2 and the problem still persists.
Any help is appreciated.
P.S>
I tinstalled SQL 2000 on my machine but that didn't help either; I
guess the 2005's configurations are being read by 2000.
I have SQL Server2005 client in my system,I am able to connect SQL Server 2000,but I am unable to create DTS packages.2005 client not at all showing Local packages icon to create package.
any body experianced with this Please guide me ragarding.
I'm trying to remember how to install the SQL 2000 client tools onto a SQL 2005 server. There are a couple of bizarre steps that will allow this to happen, but I can't for the life of me remember what comes after the unicycle down the stairs with the umbrella stand of machetes.
Can anybody remember the magic, or do I resort to using VPC to kludge the install until I can find my clay tablets again?
I have recently installed SQL 2005 client tools with SQL Server Management Studio and accessing databases on a SQL 2000 server. The response I am getting is extremely slow. Should I go back to SQL 2000 client or are there methods by which I can improve the performance.
I have many sql 2000 DTS packages that I support from my development workstation running v2000 sp4. Packages are altered on the development machine and then go through a normal release mechanisms to production via testing servers etc.
I have recently installed the client tools for SQL Server 2005 on my desktop to evaluate the product. The 2005 DB instance is running on a seperate server.
So, I have dev edition of sql 2000 and 2005 client tools (including BI Dev studio etc) on my workstation.
I have recently had to make changes to a 2000 DTS package and used my 2000 enterprise manager to do so. No Problem- saved and tested fine on my workstation.
But when I try and release it to another server, or open the package using enterprise manager from another machine that does not have sql 2005 installed - I get an error message 'Unspecified error'. This I've seen before when trying to open packages created in v2000 , using v7 or where the service packs are different between machines.
Digging around my workstation and comparing some of the DLLs I know to be required to distribute DTS packages (from RDIST.txt) it seems that some of the SQL 2000 dll files have been updated by my 2005 installation.
E.g
DTSFFILE.DLL on my machine is 2000.85.1054.0 whilst on any 'clean' 2000 machine is at version v2000.80.760.0
Surely it cant be right that SQL 2005 has newer versions of components for SQL 2000 than is available with the latest SP for the actual product! Especially considering that the installation of 2005 does not even allow you to edit 2000 DTS packages through the management studio without a 'special' download' of the feature pack,(whihc by the way does not work very well either)
So am I to conclude that you can not run side by side installations of SQL 2000 and 2005 on a single machine and expect 2000 to run as it did previously

I have a SQL 7 Enterprise Edition production server. I have installed SQL 2000 personal edition on a client station. I wish to use the 2000 tools to view,modify and create objects on the SQL 7 production server. These include stored procs,tables,dts packages etc.
What are the potential pitfalls of this. I am using this strategy to introduce myself to the SQL 2000 enviroment, and perhaps utilise some of its benefits.
According to MS Knowledge Base Article 269824, "[SQL Server 2000 ClientTools] ... must be installed ... on any computer on which someone may makedesign changes in an Access project to a SQL Server 2000 database".This is the situation I'm facing. Can I download these Client Tools andinstall them for free, or are they only available on the SQL Server 2000Installation CD?Thanks for any help!
When you connect to SQL Server using SQLConnection, how to set client machine name(or IP address) so that you can monitor the process on Server side using Enterprise Manager?
Hi, I have a server (WIN 2000 server), is connected with many clients mostly having Win 2000 Professional OS. My application is developed in VB 6.0 and we have MS SQL Server 2000 DB in our server. All the clients with win 2000 professional have no problem with connecting and accessing my SQL Database. But few of my WIN XP clients don€™t connect to database thru my application. It gives error as follows.
Runtime error Login Failed for user €˜(null)€™ . Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Connection.
I have a 500-MB full installation CD for SQL Server 2000. All I needis to install "Client Connectivity" component (about 272K) on a bunchof workstations for users across the nation.How do I reduce the installation file size, by eliminating most of theunwanted files?Thanks.
I am trying to create several Excel sheets using SQL 2000 views like so:
Select * INTO [Excel 8.0;Database="C:spreadSheetsaNew.xls"] FROM [aView].
When I try and execute this in my app I get the following - Specified owner name 'Excel 8.0;Database=c:spreadSheetsaNew.xls' either does not exist or you do not have permission to use it.
If I use the above Select statement with an OLEDB connection it works.
I am using Imports System.Data.SqlClient, instantiating a new SQlConnection object, opening the connection, etc..
Hi, A quick Q for all the Sql Server 2000 beta testers out there. Does anyone know of any problems associated with using SS2000 Enterprise Manager with a SS7 backend running SP2? In particular, I'm keen to try out the Tsql debugger features, if they'll work with SS7.
Many thanks in advance, Jon Reade, Sql Server 7 DBA NEC Technologies (UK) Ltd Telford, Shropshire.
I recently had configured my Web Server based on Windows 2003 Server and IIS 5x. I'd also installed SQL Server 2005 into this. Now I want toc onfigure this SQL Server, so that my client can access their database through a DNS name. I request you all for your kind support in this regard. Thanks in advance.

I am a SQL DBA involved in accomplishing various activities using Enterprise Manager by regestering servers of various countries.
Now as the NT Team has gone for auditing implementation in all the servers in OS lever, they find Access violations from the workstation from where I connect to the server. This does not happens if I unregester the Servers from Enterprise manager and use only query analyzer.
Note: We have our own users in OS as wel as in SQL SERVER .
I'm trying to re-install SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine andSQL Server client tools. I have succesfully re-installed the desktop engine,but I am getting the following error message when attempting to re-install theclient tools.
"Setup has detected an existing client tools only installation. Please use the maintenance mode to add client components"
Unfortunately the Upgrade/Add/Remove option is greyed out as an install option.
I attempted the registry hive rebuild option and the install appeared to succeed. However, I cannot access any tools (Enterprise Manager comes up with the message "The selected file cannot be found").
At this point, the desktop engine appears in Add/Remove programs Window, but no other SQL Server components.

We would like to install Sql 2005 Enterprise Edition (including database engine, reporting service, integration service and analysis service) as a sepearte instance on a server which already has Sql 2000 with reporting services and analysis services. We do not want to disturb the existing sql 2000 setup.
If we do that then what will happen to my earlier sql 2000 reporting service? Will it be upgraded to sql 2005 reporting service? I heard that reporting services are instance unaware application. Where will be the default reporting service database available?
The SQL Enterprise Manager and SQL Agent will not see the local SQL server install. SQL Agent won't start. It looks like one of our server guys installed something that messed up the SQL client components.
Remote clients can connect fine.
I wan to re-install the client. Where sould I get the install. I have SQL Server Service Pack 3a installed on the server. I only want to install the client portion but I want the latest for SQL 2000.

I think I may have figured out the solution to my recent conundrum with SQL Server 2000 that had me stressed and depressed over the last couple of days. In a nutshell, after a HotFix was installed on a SQL2K database server I have space on, I was unable to perform INSERT or UPDATE queries on database table of type TEXT, when trying to either create or modify records with more than 4,000 characters of data. While it was frustrating as heck, it seemed too rigid to be random, so I did some snooping.
The HotFix was intended to solve a known problem of not being able to run UPDATEs against TEXT fields, but in so doing, caused another headache entirely: http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=839523
Apparently this is a semi-known problem, in that a certain HotFix forces SQL Server 2000 to be a lot more stringent in requiring explicit declaration of data types and data lengths for parameters in stored procedure. In my client code, I was initially using the overloaded constructor of the SqlParameter object that took as arguments only the parameter name and a value, without specifying a value from the SQLDBType enumeration or length of the parameter (which in my case, needs to be TEXT and 16 (or 2147483647), respectively):
It appears that after the HotFix is installed, if the client doesn’t syntactically set the type and length of data for a parameter, SQL Server and/or .NET will default to a type of NVARCHAR, which has the 4,000-character limit. This all makes sense. I’m going to now need to modify the code to straight out declare what’s going in the SPROC:
It’s a minor change, and it sucks that I have to make it after the code had worked flawlessly over several thousands executions over several months, but c’est la vie! Better thay than have to rebuild my DB from scratch or switch to a new server. Changing the client code evidently is the only known fix at this time: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb%3ben-us%3b827366
we have tables with many image columns. We fill these image columns via ODBC and SQLPutData as described in MSDN etc (using SQL_LEN_DATA_AT_EXEC(...), calling SQLParamData and sending the data in chunks of 4096 bytes when receiving SQL_NEED_DATA).
The SQLPutData call fails under the following conditions with sqlstate 08S01
- The database resides on SQL Server 2000 - The driver is SQL Native Client - The table consists e.g. of one Identity column (key column) and nine image columns - The data to be inserted are nine blocks of data with the following byte size:
1: 6781262 2: 119454
3: 269 4: 7611
5: 120054
6: 269
7: 8172
8: 120054
9: 269 The content of the data does not matter, (it happens also if only zero bytes are written), nor does the data origin (file or memory).
All data blocks including no 7 are inserted. If the first chunk of data block 8 should be written with SQLPutData the function fails and the connection is broken. There are errors such as "broken pipe" or "I/O error" depending on the used network protocol.
If data no 7 consists of 8173 bytes instead of 8172 all works again. (Changing the 4096 chunk size length does not help)
Has anybody encountered this or a similar phenomenon?
If I give the user access dbo on 1 of the database, when he logon using SQL Server Management Studio for running query etc, can he only see his database instead of other as well system database?
Is there any best practise in term of setting the SQL client for 2005?
Do I need to install SQL Server 2005 Native client drivers on the servers that contain applications that make connections to the new SS2005 db server? My understanding is that this driver is backward compatible with SS 2000... Can I have both installed on the same server, and then create and ODBC driver for either?
Iam a new bee to sql server.I have Installed sql server 2005 ( trail software ) in my Server.I like to install sql server 2005 clinet in another system. Where can i download sql server 2005 client??
My requirement is , i should access sql server database from my client...
Windows 2003 Server and all client PCs are all on the same network. I installed SQL 2005 std version on windows server 2003 and created a database and tables in it.
I have two users, who want to connect to SQL server 2005 from their PCs (they have windows XP):
These are two things that I need to facilitate:
1) They want to be able to write queries using Query Designer and run from their PCs.
2) I created an MS Access database on my PC, I want to use Access database as a front end to the SQL server database. I will create queries, forms in Access DB, and I want to be able to get the data from SQL server Database to do this. I guess I can use ODBC to connect to tables in SQL server database.
3) I want to connect SQL server to Oracle database, and run oracle stored procedures. I want to load the results of oracle stored procedures into SQL server database tables. I guess I will use IIS for this.
Any suggestions are appreciated, especially with item number 1.
