I have a question about Service Packs and Cumulative Updates for SQL 2008 R2.
Do you need to apply them in the order that they are released? Or can you just apply the latest Service Pack and Cumulative Update?
If I install a new named instance of SQL Server 2008 R2 on a machine that already has 3 named instances that are upgraded to service pack 3, will the install of the new instance overwrite any of the current SP3 files? Will I have to re-apply SP 3 to the existing instances?

I am trying to install the eval version of Reporting Services. One of the requirements for installing this is to have SQL Server 2000 with service pack 3a. I've downloaded the service pack and followed the instructions documented by Microsoft (applying SQL2KSP3.exe, then SQL2KASP3.exe).
It appears that the application of the service packs did nothing. No errors where returned after the executable was run. But, after having applied these service packs, the version has not changed. I have restarted the service, and the server with no success. The version that is returned is
'Microsoft SQL Server 2000 - 8.00.194'.
I am running MSSQL server Developer Edition, running on Windows 2000 Professional (service pack 4).
Any suggestions. I have even uninstalled the SQL server and re-applied the service packs, so I really am having trouble trying to figure out what to do next.
Thanks,
Jim
When I try to run SQL Server 6.5 Service Pack 5a, I consistently receive the error message
"Setup initialization could not be successfully completed.
cfgchar.exe could not be executed. Please check the relevant
out file."
I am currently at Service Pack 3.
1) I have insured that the PATH environment variable does not contain quotes.
2) I have no other applications running at the same time as the service pack is running.
The contents of the cfgchar.out file appear as follows:

I've read about this hotfix at http://www.kbalertz.com/Feedback_933097.aspx but I can't find anything on microsoft.com about it. It sounds like a worthwhile hotfix, but I'm wondering about the absence of an announcement on microsoft.com.
Anyone else know about this hotfix?
Thanks!
I am trying to enable FILESTREAM on a SQL 2012 installation that is supporting a Sharepoint 2013 implementation. When I try to enable FILESTREAM using the SQL Server Configuration Manager I receive the following error:
There was an unknown error applying the FILESTREAM settings.
Check the parameters are valid. (0x80041008)
I have done this succussfully in the past in SQL2008R2/Sharepoin2010 environment but this is my first attempt with SQL2012/Sharepoint2013 and I am not sure how to proceed with troubleshooting.
I'm trying to activate FILESTREAM on my SQL Server 2012, however i'm not accomplishing it. I've tried to follow this instructions: [URL] ...
My SETUP is the following:
Windows 8 (64 bit)SQL Server Standard Edition - Service Pack 1 (64 bit)SQL Version: (11.0.3128.0)
When I go to the configuration manager, on the FILESTREAM tab has a message:
"A previous FILESTREAM configuration attempt was incomplete.
FILESTREAM may be in an inconsistent state until re-configured."
If I click Enable FILESTREAM and "Apply", I get the following message:
"There was an unknown error applying the FILESTREAM settings. Check the parameters are valid. (0x80070002)"
I also read somewhere to run "EXEC sp_configure", which produces the result:
"filestream access level - 0 2 2 0"
Running "SELECT SERVERPROPERTY ('FilestreamEffectiveLevel');" returns 0.
We're doing upgrades from SQL 2008 R2 to SQL 2014. This is blocked due to RS is installed but not configured. Our desired action is to uninstall RS and proceed with the upgrade. But when setuparp.exe is raised, it does not list all the features on the 'Select Features' page. In fact, it only lists the last 2 shared features (SQ Client Connectivity SDK and Microsoft Sync Framework). However, all items appear to be listed on the 'Select Instance' page including RS. I've seen this issue on 2 of our SQL 2008 R2 Servers already.

We have successfully been using MSCS with MSSQL7 (SP1) running under NT4 EE
(SP6a), installed in an active/active configuration using, two DELL
PowerEdge 6350 machines. Recently I installed MSSQL7 (SP2), I followed the
instructions that came with SP2, and unclustered the SQL nodes using the
Failover Cluster Wizard, and installed SP2, this was uneventful, and
appeared to install correctly. Next I tried to recluster the SQL nodes
using the Failover Cluster Wizard as directed. This failed with: "Could not
run setup on remote machine. SQL Cluster Setup failed." So I began the
usual research using the usual resources, and have found articles that
discusses this error, and the things to look for when it happens. I have
exhausted all suggestions without success. I appear to have everything
correctly configured. I have enabled Cluster Logging (level 3), following
are the two things I have found that indicate something is wrong:
1. In the SQL Error Log the following gets logged when I run the wizard:
"Attempting to initialize Distributed Transaction Coordinator."
"Failed to obtain TransactionDispenserInterface:
XACT_E_TMNOTAVAILABLE"
2. In the Cluster Log I see the following message repeatedly:
"[ClRtlCopySecurityDescriptor] MakeSelfRelativeSD failed,
0x00000551"
3. In the sqlclstr.log I see the following, without an indication of
which file is missing:
"[reghelp.h:235] : 2 (0x2): The system cannot find the file
specified."
"[clushelp.cpp:166] : 259 (0x103): No more data is available."
"[validate.cpp:147] DeleteTestGroup:OpenClusterResource: 5007
(0x138f): The cluster resource could not be found."
"~~~ XXX InstallRemote failed"
Does anyone have any ideas about what could be causing this problem?
Many thanks in advance.

Couple questions I guess. Are others getting the same thing? Is there a way to fix this so it will install like a work around? Last what will this affect by this not installing correctly?
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?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI am working with a client who is rolling out 50+ VM's based of a template we created. This is SQL 2012 CU1 running on Windows Server 2008 R2. Using the default service account the installer has it registers fine and we get the following in the SQL log.
The SQL Server Network Interface library successfully registered the Service Principal Name (SPN) [ MSSQLSvc/server.domain.com:1433 ] for the SQL Server service.
When we change to a domain service account through SQL configuration manager we see the following and cannot connect remote using integrated authentication The SQL Server Network Interface library could not register the Service Principal Name (SPN) [ MSSQLSvc/server.domain.com:1433 ] for the SQL Server service. Windows return code: 0x2098, state: 15. Failure to register a SPN might cause integrated authentication to use NTLM instead of Kerberos. This is an informational message. Further action is only required if Kerberos authentication is required by authentication policies and if the SPN has not been manually registered.
My understanding is you should and could change service accounts using the SQL Server Configuration Manager and it would set all permissions. Is there something we need to do in addition to get this up and working?

View 4 Replies View RelatedDear all,
I have recently applied the latest cumulative upgrade 3 for SP2 for SQL Server 2005 (KB939537) to have all the hotfixes needed since the SP2, and to correct a specific one : the 50001440 (SQL Server may fail to generate a plan for a complex query that involves cursors and error 8623 occurs - KB940128).
But it is not included in this latest cumulative upgrade package. I read the new policy about CU but I can not know if the 50001440 hotfix is candidate for the CU :
Cumulative update (CU)
€¢
The update can be requested by any customer, regardless of their support offering.
€¢
The update is released every 2 months.
€¢
The update contains the following:
€¢
All previous critical on-demand hotfixes to date.
Fixes for issues that meet hotfix acceptance criteria. These criteria include workaround availability, customer effect, reproducibility, the complexity of the code that must be changed, and so on.
Another bug, the 50001317 (You may receive error messages when you try to log in to an instance of SQL Server 2005 and SQL Server handles many concurrent connections - KB937745) : it is included in the upgrade 2 for SP2 but not in the upgrade3.
So, is it needed to apply each cumulative upgrade or only the latest CU ? And if it is only the latest CU, why are there missing hotfix ?
Thank you very much
