Setup And Upgrade :: Clarification On Non-integer Constants Are Not Allowed In ORDER BY Clause In 90

May 15, 2015

We're upgrading our SQL Server database from 2005 to 2012.I ran the Upgrade Advisory report and got this issue "Non-integer constants are not allowed in the ORDER BY clause in 90" because of the script below

SELECT
gp.BRAND+' <> '+gp.CATEGORY AS 'full name',
gp.PRODCODE,
gp.CATEGORY
FROM dbo.GFK_PRODUCT gp
ORDER BY
'full name'

I tried running the same query in our test SQL Server 2012 and it ran successfully. Now I'm confuse if i still need to change it.I google the issue a bit and came across this link and mentioned this.

1.) Non-integer constants are ... constants that are not integer number.

Example: 'string1' represents
a string constant
0x01 represents
a varbinary constant
{ts
'2015-02-26 06:00:00'} represents a datetime constant

1.23 represents
a numeric constants

2) So single quotes are used to define a string constants / character string constants but SQL Server allows also to use single quotation marks use also as column identifier
delimiter:
SELECT ... expression AS 'Column1'
FROM ...

In this context is clear that 'Column1' is a column identifier but when used in ORDER BY : ORDER BY 'Column1' it generates confusion because SQL Server doesn't knows if it represents a string literal (character string constant) or it represents a column identifier / column name."Do I still need to change the existing code even though it's working fine in 2012? If yes, it is because of best practice reason or it will total get deprecated/not working in the future version?

Error : Only Constants, Constant Expressions, Or Variables Allowed Here.

Jun 9, 2004

hi all,
when I try to do the following insert for the table test

create table test (outputs character(10), chk integer)

insert into test values('a',((select count(*) from test where outputs='a')+1))

I am getting the error
The name 'outputs' is illegal in this context. Only constants, constant expressions, or variables allowed here. Column names are illegal.

when i tried the same in DB2 it's working fine. is there anyerror in my syntax or this kind of function not allowed in SQL Server.

regards
Melb

Setup And Upgrade :: 2008 R2 Setup UI Has Incomplete List Of Installed Features - Can't Uninstall RS

Jul 23, 2015

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.

Max Number Of Elements Allowed In An IN Clause.

May 13, 2008

Afternoon,

Can anyone relay to me if there is a max number of elements that are allowed within an IN clause?

Example would be:

SELECT * FROM tblMyTable WHERE ID_Number IN (1,2,3,4,5,...150,000)


where we list all 150,000 numbers between the ( ).

Thanks!

Setup And Upgrade :: Error Setup Account Privileges

Nov 15, 2015

I'm trying to install SQL Server Management studio 2012 on my Windows 7 (x64) standalone laptop.  When I click "New SQL stand-alone installation..." it runs a Setup Support Rules check and always fails "Setup Account Privileges". I've looked into the error and I keep getting that I need to change security rules but I don't have that option in window 7.  How do I get around this without having to resort to a computer running Windows Server?

I have Visual Studio 2013 premium installed along with Localdb v11.  I just want to connect and manage my database engine through SSMS when developing any application.

Setup And Upgrade :: One Machine 6 IPs - How To Setup DNS For Server

Apr 24, 2015

I am running a number of SQL instances on my PC. Within the network, I have think server with various System Center components. For compatibility reasons, some features of System Center 2012 R2 had to be delegated to different SQL databases. My question is, because there is now more than one IP address on my system, and each instance of SQL is assigned to its own IP, is there a way to setup DNS and SQL so the namespace points to the desired IP address? For Instance:

MSSQL2008 instance is set to run on = 11.12.13.1
MSSQL2012 is set to run on = 11.12.13.2
IN DNS:
A Record: Mike-PC = 11.12.13.1
A Record: Mike-PC = 11.12.13.2

If I want to use MSSQL2008 by specifying Mike-PC as the DNS name, how would I do that with 100% accuracy? If there is another way to get the job done, I am more than willing to approach this differently.

Recovery :: Adding Nodes To Virtual Server Definition Using A Newer Version Of Setup Is Not Allowed

Jun 6, 2015

One of my actual production environments is a Failover two-node cluster, SQL Server 2005 SP3 on Windows Server 2003 R2. Recently, the node 2 was failed, so I formatted a new machine to add the new node, but it failed with the following error:  “Adding nodes to the Virtual Server definition using a newer version of Setup is not allowed.”I have searching across the web for a solution but I can’t find it.

The Summary file “Summary.txt”  are:
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 9.00.1399.06
OS Version      : Microsoft Windows Server 2003 family, Enterprise Edition Service Pack 2 (Build 3790)
Time           
: Thu Jun 04 13:04:38 2015

[code]....

One point of my attention, it’s that the Product Version that appears on this summary file corresponding a 9.00.1399.06 that is to say, a RTM version, not SP3 (9.00.4035).Based on this, I went to the path where the files of installation are (ARPWrapper.exe), "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90Setup Bootstrap"and I 've found that these files contain a different version of what I have currently installed. For example, in properties of ARPWrapper.exe the version of this is 2005.90.1399.0 The same goes for the rest of the files in that folder:

Microsoft.SqlServer.AnalysisServices.UpgradeAdvisor.dll
Microsoft.SqlServer.BestPracticesAnalyzer.UpgradeAdvisor.dll
Microsoft.SqlServer.DTS.UpgradeAdvisor.dll
setup.exe

Is it possible that the solution is to replace these files with the corresponding version, in this case the version 2005.90.4035.0(SP3) and continue with the installation?

Order By Clause In View Doesn't Order.

May 18, 2006

I have created view by jaoining two table and have order by clause.

The sql generated is as follows

SELECT TOP (100) PERCENT dbo.UWYearDetail.*, dbo.UWYearGroup.*
FROM dbo.UWYearDetail INNER JOIN
dbo.UWYearGroup ON dbo.UWYearDetail.UWYearGroupId = dbo.UWYearGroup.UWYearGroupId
ORDER BY dbo.UWYearDetail.PlanVersionId, dbo.UWYearGroup.UWFinancialPlanSegmentId, dbo.UWYearGroup.UWYear, dbo.UWYearGroup.MandDFlag,
dbo.UWYearGroup.EarningsMethod, dbo.UWYearGroup.EffectiveMonth



If I run sql the results are displayed in proper order but the view only order by first item in order by clause.

Has somebody experience same thing? How to fix this issue?

Inconsistent Sort Order Using ORDER BY Clause

Mar 19, 2007

I am getting the resultset sorted differently if I use a column number in the ORDER BY clause instead of a column name.

Product: Microsoft SQL Server Express Edition
Version: 9.00.1399.06
Server Collation: SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS

for example,

create table test_sort
( description varchar(75) );

insert into test_sort values('Non-A');
insert into test_sort values('Non-O');
insert into test_sort values('Noni');
insert into test_sort values('Nons');

then execute the following selects:
select
*
from
test_sort
order by
cast( 1 as nvarchar(75));

select
*
from
test_sort
order by
cast( description as nvarchar(75));

Resultset1
----------
Non-A
Non-O
Noni
Nons

Resultset2
----------
Non-A
Noni
Non-O
Nons


Any ideas?

Reg. Order By Clause

Aug 19, 2006

Can you explain the below scenario

The ORDER BY clause can include items that do not appear in the select list. However, if SELECT DISTINCT is specified, or if the statement contains a GROUP BY clause, or if the SELECT statement contains a UNION operator, the sort columns must appear in the select list.

what is the reason behind this.
