Setup And Upgrade :: How To Remove Stuff That Script Installed Into Master Database
Jun 8, 2015
I downloaded the AdventureWorks2012 OLTP script. When I ran it it gave me some errors. I also noticed that it tried to install into the bult-in master database, it created a lot of tables and objects. Some questions :
1) How can I remove everything that the script installed into master database?
2) Do I need to create 1st an empty database and then run the script there?
3) I am running the script from a custom path (C:DownloadsMicrosoft SQL Server 2012AdventureWorks 2012 OLTP Script.zipAdventureWorks 2012 OLTP Script) not sure if this is causing some of the errors as the script, in the beggining has a path to other folders :
:setvar SqlSamplesDatabasePath  "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL11.MSSQLSERVERMSSQLDATA"
-- NOTE: Change this path if you copied the script source to another path
:setvar SqlSamplesSourceDataPath "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL11.MSSQLSERVERToolsSamplesAdventureWorks 2012 OLTP Script"
4) Final question, I also downloaded the AdventureWorks 2012 simple database (AdventureWorks2012_Data.mdf). Is this file the same database as the one created by the OLTP script?
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.
Have a production server, 12 Enterprise, and we are adding a new app to an existing instance. Â Next app needs SSRS and that was not put in the install request a year ago for the instance. Â
I do not think a reboot is required but have been wrong before. There are no SPs applied to this server and only last week we were given go ahead from one app vendor to apply SPs. Â That would have been done in monthly maintenance cycle next weekend. Â Our test server is doing just fine with all apps on SP1.
I have destroyed the cluster in failover cluster manager and then i am trying to remove node from the sql server installation centre.I am facing the cluster node and cluster service verification errors.I am not able to start the cluster service in services as well.
SP2 refuses to install for the Database Engine because €œthe previous upgrade did not complete€?, i.e. it detects a suspended installation. The same thing happened to me when I installed SP1. I then remember opening the maintenance dialog and completing the setup, after which SP1 installed just fine.
When I try to do the same thing this time, I€™m presented with the €?complete the suspended installation€? option, which when I run it reports the installation completed successfully. However, in reality the installation still remains in suspended mode for whatever reason. If I reboot and open the maintenance dialog, I€™m still presented with the €?complete the suspended installation€? option. I€™ve even tried to run it more than once, but it doesn€™t help. Needless to say, SP2 still refuses to install.
I don't know why the installation is in a suspended state. I know every part of SP1 installed successfully in the end, and the computer never crashed during the installation. I've been using it every day since then, without any problems. All other parts of SP2 did install successfully.
I created a feedback entry on Microsoft Connect, where you can find the log files created by Windows Installer. The URL is: https://connect.microsoft.com/SQLServer/feedback/ViewFeedback.aspx?FeedbackID=259606
We migrated the MDS database to a new server (win 2012 & sql 2014). We did this by detaching attaching. After the move, I tried to upgrade the MDS database using the master configuration manager and i am getting the following error. I couldn't find any relevant articles online. "The upgrade from the version of the database is not supported or the sql scripts for the upgrade are misisng".
When I'm trying to create a database diagram for my tables., First it prompts me saying that - "This database does not have one or more of the supported objects... Do you wish to create them? I know this is normal when you don't have any diagrams. But after clicking "Yes", I get the following error which is attached.
I tried changing the database Owner to "sa". But, still the same error. Interestingly, other databases that are already having the database diagrams (created by others), are allowing me to create new diagrams in those databases. The only difference is, I created this database where I'm trying to create diagrams on. How do I get this working.
I need to be able to create & connect to temporary databases programmatically, and NOT using the command-line, within a C# program. How would one go about doing this?
I can't install the SQL Server 2012 Express version with tools downloaded from [URL]
I'm getting the following error:Â
Error installing SQL Server Database Engine Services Instance Features Could not find the Database Engine startup handle. Error code: 0x851A0019
I'm trying to install a new stand-alone version with a default instance but always getting this error. From the features I'm installing the database engine services (not the replication), all the tools, only the basic management toolds and the SQL Client connectivity SDK.
Further in the installation I'm choosing the Windows authentication and in the list of SQL administrators I've already tried to install as current user but also as System. Both with the same error result.
I have checked my Production databases, both are went to Disconnected state, both are unable to connect to the application, i checked all the services and its working fine. and restarted the end points on Principal and Mirror, still issue not solved, after restart the witness server End point both the databases are working fine.
I tried to open mdf file without any success. Then, all database files icon were changed or grayed out. How can i repair or replace the file to it's original file? ex... the file named "event.mdf" has now a wrong icon not a database icon like before.
We have installed 2014 sql server on a stand alone VM and can create alerts without issue. We recently did a cluster install of 2014, and when trying to create alerts get the following error:
Msg 14262, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_verify_performance_condition, Line 52 The specified object_name ('Databases') does not exist.
Specifically, we are trying to create a database alert on percent log used that will kick off a job to back up the log.
We are on Windows 2012R2 o/s. In the drop downs in SSMS under alerts, we do not have all the options we have in the stand alone instance - they are not there. Is this a bug? Is there a CU?
How does one enable sql connections limits for user connections per new and existing databases? how to do it on whole server per database but not set a limit per user.Looks like this must be run on each databases but what if you have 100s of databases:
USE AdventureWorks2012 ; GO EXEC sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1; GO RECONFIGURE ; GO EXEC sp_configure 'user connections', 325 ; GO RECONFIGURE; GO
I have an existing, licensed installation of SQL 2008 R2, with one database instance.  I need to add a second instance, but do not currently have access to the installation media.  Can I use the Microsoft® SQL Server® 2008 Enterprise

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.
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.
I have 2008 installed and have 'smoke tested' it (tried it on the several projects and don't appear to have any show stopper type issues). Anyways, I'd really like to remove VS 2005 if at all possible. My concern is what effect removing that is going to have one the following other installs:
SQL Server 2005 Express SQL Management Studio (Enterprise NOT Express) .NET Framework v2.0
If anyone can weight in on the effect uninstalling 2005 is going to have, or ways to 'safely' uninstall it without affecting any of the other installs, please let me know...
My SQL2000 databases did not upgrade to SQL2005. When I look at the Properties>>Options>>Compatibility Level the only options I have is version 7 and version 8... version 9 - which is SQL2005, is not there.
So what did I do? During the upgrade process - the installation wizard - I made a couple of choices that I believe might have lead to my current condition. The first thing is that I chose to select a installed instance. The second choice I made was to use a domain user account for the Authentication. The second selection I believe had nothing to do with the condition, but I did notice that my Systems Admin user account for SQL is no longer availble... which is a problem because now when I log into the SQL Management Console... it's using the domain name to authenticate rather than using the SA name like it was in SQL2000.
So here is what I think the solution is... I need to create a new Server Registration and create the databases in the new instance and then restore the data from SQL2000 to SQL2005 new instance, and then I can change the Compatibility Level to version 9.
The only issue I still don't have an answer for is the authentication into SQL. I want to not use the domain user account... how can I change this or can I? This also creates an issue when creating the ODBC connection as it wants to use the domain user account to verify.
So if someone can let me know if this is the right direction? Also any suggestions... i would greatly appreciate it!
I am getting the error "The required .svc handler mappings are not installed in IIS" in the Master Data Services Configuration Manager. I am running the configuration tool as administrator on a domain joined machine using a domain user account (which is also a member of the local Administrators group).
My configuration is as follows: Windows 8 SQL Server 2012 RTM + CU 2 (build 11.0.2325).
All required prerequisites should be installed in IIS.I have reviewed this issue:Â URL...
So, I'm looking into using an MSX/TSX setup to help manage and monitor jobs, etc.
I took two test boxes and set one up as a Master and one as a Target and got it working...was able to push a job out and it ran and reported back, etc.
So, that's all great, but this was one small limited test. I'm curious to know if there are any gotchas that some of you have experienced that you would be willing to share with me to help prevent me from experiencing the same issues, etc.
I have about 40 instances that I'm considering using this MSX/TSX setup with, the remaining 15 instances would be monitored by something like Quest. Can a single MSX handle jobs on 40 instances? I already have maintenance plans and jobs set up on all the remote servers. Is there a way to transfer their ownership up to the MSX so they can be monitored from there? So far I haven't seen a way to do that.
*ponders*
Actually, one thing I just realized is that I could set up a job that looked for failed jobs. If I pushed that job out to all the TSX servers that could be used to alert me that something failed on a TSX box. That would actually be a great way to do it the more I think about it...Can anyone think of a reason why that is a bad idea?
BACKGROUND: I just set up a network with 2 computers (direct cable network, no routers/hubs), one computer is running Windows 2000 Server and the other is running Windows XP Professional. They both recognize each other and I can access each computer on either computer. The WinXP computer has SQL Server 2005 express edition installed on it.
BASIC PROBLEM: I am trying to install a database server on my Windows 2000 Server OS computer. This computer is a 350MHz, 256mb RAM computer. How would I go about doing this?
I receive this error "Setup was unable to load the master information file' when I lanch Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs, Add/Remove Windows Components.
I am getting the error: "Cannot connect to WMI provider. You do not have permission or the server is unreachable."I tried the solution posted on the Microsoft support page involving a command prompt and the mofcomp "%programfiles(x86)%Microsoft SQL Server<var class="sbody-var"> numbe r</var>Sharedsqlmgmproviderxpsp2up.mof"...This still does not fix the problem, the result of running the above is: Parsing MOF file: C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft SQL Server110Sharedsqlmgmp roviderxpsp2up.mof...MOF file has been successfully parsed...Storing data in the repository..An error occurred while processing item 1 defined on lines 4 - 7 in file C:Prog
Is there way to completely re-install the Configuration Manager? One post suggested the Access denied was Administrator rights but I have full Administrative rights to everything so I don't see that being the problem.
So, I just downloaded and installed Windows 8 and SQL Server 2014 Developer. I used to have Visual Studio, that seems to be gone now. Can't find it. I can't figure out a way to get to SSIS or SSAS.
