Silent Install Of Sql Server CE
May 29, 2007I have a desktop application in which I use Sql Server CE.
It all works well on my development machine.
It also works on other machines if I copy the sql dll files in the same path as the .exe
I'm trying to avoid all kinds of user interaction. They don't need to know that I'm about to install Sql Server CE really
So I'm hoping to avoid writing in the manual that the user should install SQLServerCE31-EN.msi, which I think is the correct install package.
So my question is: How do you silently/unattended install Sql Server CE on the desktop?
[MSDE] Silent Install, Not Associated With Trusted....
May 24, 2002Hi all,
After doing a silent install of the MSDE, my application cannot access the database that is loaded on the local machine -
I am getting an error stating - 'login failed for user 'sa'. Reason: Not associated witha trusted SQL server connection'
Is there are parameter or something that i need to change in my UDL??
or is there a way to tell the server to work in non-trusted inviroment via the OSQL program???
thanks

Silent Install With SQL Server 2005 SP2
Aug 25, 2007I can't get SQL Server 2005 to update to SP2 in either silent or unattended mode. None of the standard switches work. I've used -s, -m, /q, /qb, and /qn all with no favorable result. I am still prompted for user input at every screen. Suprisingly I've had no such problems with the express edition, just the server itself. Is there a way to make this thing work? Here is the line I've been feeding to the installer.
"<SERVER_PATH>SQL Serversql2005SP2.exe" start /wait setup.exe /qb /settings "C:SQLSettings.ini" /L*v "C:SQLInstall.log" /norestart
I have also tried the following since it looks like the file that is unpacked by the SP2 install is actually hotfix.exe
"<SERVER_PATH>SQL Serversql2005SP2.exe" start /wait hotfix.exe /qb /settings "C:SQLSettings.ini" /L*v "C:SQLInstall.log" /norestart
I also have tried the following generics:
"<SERVER_PATH>SQL Serversql2005SP2.exe" -s
"<SERVER_PATH>SQL Serversql2005SP2.exe" -m
"<SERVER_PATH>SQL Serversql2005SP2.exe" /q
Silent Install With Fixed Tcp Port
Sep 12, 2007Hi,
I'm doing a silent install of SQLServer Express 2005 as explained in http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms144259.aspx .
I am setting DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=2 because I want to enable TCP/IP protocol at install time.
However it seems that per default SQLServer is configured to use dynamic TCP/IP ports, forcing me to contact the SQLBrowser.
How can I switch to a fixed port, say 1433, at install time?
Thanks, in advance,
Dirk.
SqlExpress && Silent Install As A Prereq???
May 18, 2007I'm still doing some research but I thought I'd slap a quick post up here anyway. I'm trying to create a small 'setup and deployment' project in studio 2005 that includes a prerequisite (sqlexpress). The one thing I've noticed is that there is not an option to install this silently by providing the executable with the appropriate switches. I could easily write my own small utility to do the work or I could use a third-party component like NSIS, however, I'm quite simply amazed that this feature was left out of studio 2005. It's quite possible I'm missing something...any feedback is appreciated 100 times over!
Thanks

Silent Install New SQL Express Instance Via MSI
Aug 4, 2006I'm currently building an MSI to install SQL Express and want to install as a new instance, not the default instance, and not into the SQLEXPRESS instance either.
I saw the package.xml for Express in my VS Studio install. How would I go about using this? Or would I have to modify the MSI via Orca or something? I hope not. Wouldn't have a clue where to start.
In short, regardless if there is already an SQL Express instance on the machine or not, I need to silently install a fresh new instance of the server engine only, no client tools except sqlcmd.exe
I have seen that MS would advise that everyone use the SQLEXPRESS instance but I don't agree with it. I don't want other application installs trampling over my server settings and I don't want to trample over others. For example, expose others to TCPIP and CLR when they don't need it, and conversely others swithing them off in a shared server instance when I do need them.
Silent SQL SE 2005 Install Headaches...
Aug 17, 2006Yet another roadblock: Does the standard SQL SE 2005 not install any of the query commands? (isql, isqlw, or osql.exe's). I could have sworn that they were, but every time I go to test the install on my VM none of them are ever installed. If it doesn't is it included in the advanced version of it (which I'd really rather not do)? If still no what's the easiest option I still have open? Can I have my app connect to the master db and run a restore script from the app? I've been arm wrestling with this install for over a week and it's just about brow-beaten me completely.
TIA,

SQL2005 Silent Install Collation Options?

I am setting up a template.ini for my SQL2005 installs. The documentation on the INI file is great up until the "SQLCOLLATION" section.

SQL 2005 Express SP2 Silent Install Fails
May 16, 2007Hello,
I'm using the latest version of SQLEXPR32.EXE found here :
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=31711d5d-725c-4afa-9d65-e4465cdff1e7&DisplayLang=en
Here is the command line that fails :
"sqlexpr32.exe -q /norebootchk /qn reboot=ReallySuppress
INSTANCENAME=MYINSTANCE SECURITYMODE=SQL SAPWD=mypassword SQLAUTOSTART=1"
Interrestingly, when the following command line is used to launch the setup,
it completes successfully :
"sqlexpr32.exe /norebootchk reboot=ReallySuppress INSTANCENAME=MYINSTANCE
SECURITYMODE=SQL SAPWD=mypassword SQLAUTOSTART=1"
The only difference between the two is the quiet switches used in the first
case : "-q" and "/qn"
After spending some time to understand what is going wrong, it seems that in
quied mode, Setup Prerequisite 'SQL Native Client' is not installed. Then
the remaining part of the setup fails because of this.
Any help appreciated.
Unattended/Silent Install - Enable TCP/IP Property
Mar 15, 2007I'm able to install SQL 2005 Express using a template.ini, and use the option DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=2 in order to enable TCP/IP. However, I then manually need to open SQL Server Config Manager > SQL Network Config > Protocols for SQL > TCP/IP > "IP Addresses" tab > change all "enabled" options to "yes".
Is there an automated way to do this?
Thanks,

Unattended (Silent) Install SQL Server Express How Do I Specify A The Built In System Account???
Aug 15, 2006When doing a unattended install of Microsoft SQL Server Express, I have a problem specifing the service to installed to be run under the as local system account.
I'm using: SQLACCOUNT & SQLPASSWORD parameters but it just won't work.
As default SQL Server is installed using the NETWORK SERVICE account, this causes the database to be read-only. What I want is to specifiy in the script that the service should run under the LOCAL SYSTEM account instead. This must also be OS-language independent.
I've tried:
SQLACCOUNT=NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM
SQLACCOUNT=NT AUTHORITYLOCAL SYSTEM
SQLACCOUNT=NT AUTHORITYLOCAL SERVICE
SQLACCOUNT=SYSTEM
SQLACCOUNT=BUILT-INSYSTEM
etc.
and even some different SID as:
S-1-5-18
S-1-5-19
All with no password with the SQLPASSWORD parameter:
SQLPASSWORD=
I still getting the same error while validating the service account.
Is there someone else who knows what I'm doing wrong?
Best regards,
Mattias
Replacing A Cluster Node: SQL Silent Install Setup Installshield Error

Installing SQL Server 2005 Express Via Command Prompt (silent / Basic GUI Install)
Feb 20, 2008Hi,
I would be very grateful if someone could take a look at my command line install and offer advice on if I am doing it correctly.
The reason I am asking is because I cannot seem to get the server installed without having errors during the installation:
"The SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) service terminated with service-specific error 17113 (0x42D9)"
Looking at the server error log indicates that master.mdf was not in the data directory (I have however specified a different data directory for ease of backup by our software and this is created during the install but does not have this database in the data directory - it is however in the template data directory!
I also get this error when the SQL Server service is started:
"The SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) service terminated with service-specific error 3417 (0xD59)."
All advice is welcome. Please see below my batch file. Also, if you think I should do this in a different way then please let me know. I basically want to install SQL server on a customer computer and automate the install so the custoemr does not need to enter any information.
The goal of this install is:
[1] Deply a custom .Net application and SQL server at the same time on the same computer without user input.
[2] Allow remote .Net applications (designed by myself also) to connect over a LAN (and later maybe over a WAN) to the database to the above database.
The command line is this (I have also included the batch file I am usign below). For ease of reading I have put the parameters on a new line below:
setup.exe /qb

Silent Unpack Of
May 22, 2006Hello,
The need is to redistribute and install SQL Express in the silent mode. Looks like the current license does not allow to redistribute SQL Express in a way other than self-unpacking archive (we need sqlexpr_adv.exe). It seems that the way to do it is:
1. Unpack this archive in the silent mode to the default temp directory, without any dialogs popping up.
2. Proceed with the installation of the unpacked files in the silent mode.
No prob with 2), but we don€™t really know how to deal with 1).
Is there any way to get a full list of command-line parameters for sqlexpr_adv.exe, including the parameter for the silent unpacking?
Thanks,
Alexander.
64 Bit Silent Installation

SQL Express Silent Installation.
Mar 14, 2006I am writing an application that requires SQL Express to be installed alongside.
So I try to do the following - Before installing my application, I pop-up a link which leads to "SQLEXPR.exe ADDLOCAL=SQL_Engine INSTANCENAME=MSSQLServer <other parameters> /qb " .
But this displays only a basic GUI, which means that the pre-requisite checks for SQL express are not displayed to the user. So if MDAC version 2.8 is not present on the system the installation of SQLexpress fails without any error messages (except in the log files).
( This is not a problem with all pre-requisites :: If .NET is not present on the system, the failure is much more elegant. There is a nice GUI pop-up which requests the user to install .NET 2.0 before installing SQL express.)
On the other hand, If I remove the "/qb" switch, I can get the pre-requisites GUI to display and the end-user can figure out the cause of failure easily enough. But this means that the optional parameters I use, for example the instancename or the authentication mode will not be used during the install
Is there a good commandline switch I can use so that
1) The pre-requisites check screen is displayed
2) All the commandline options are used for installation.
Thanks
Silent Installation Of SQL Server
Apr 16, 2007 Hi There,
My ASP.Net application needs AJAX and SQL Server to be installed on the server.
How can I make AJAX and SQL Server installation as a part of my application installation?
Is it possible to automate the install of SQL Server? So user dont need to write in anything, all the answers will be prewritten.
I heard, using Microsoft Setup manager we can generate Setup.iss files to automate the silent install of SQL Server. But I cant find information about how to implement and where can I find this tool.
My main motive is to save my client from installation questions of SQL Server.
One version of my application uses SQL Server 2005 Express and another one uses Standard version.
Please help and guide me.
DTS And VBScript
Dec 21, 2004I have an application written in C#, which allows the user to load their destination schema (in xml format) and writer their transformation expressions either in VBScript or in T-SQL. It uses DTS to do the ETL job.
Everything works great except with one problem. If there is a hypen ("-") in any of the destination attributes, the transformation fails with syntax error. It happens only with VBScript.
Here is my transformation:
"Function Main()
DTSDestination("Field-1") = #01/01/2004#
End Function"
If I replace the hypen with underscore, it works without any problem.
Does anyone have any idea about this problem?
How To Start The MMSE In Silent Mode?
Mar 17, 2007Hi all!
I'm making a custom unattended installation of SQL Server 2005 Express. I'm using WPI (Windows Post-Install) installing first Framework 2.0, then SQL 2005 Express and then I want tu ejecute some SQL sentences using SQLCMD. The problem is, that if I don´t start at least one time the Managament Studion Express, those sentences are not ejecuted.But, Why?
The first time you run the MMSE, you get a horizontal progress bar, telling you that MMSE is preparing for firt run.
Is there any way to automate this?
P.S. I'm starting the MSSQL service automatically using a template.ini.
Thank in advance,

Silent Installation Setup Problem

but from the command line all i get is
"NT AUTHORITYLOCAL SYSTEM" which is the default i think

Triggers / VBScript
Aug 25, 2004How do i get my server to run a vbscript (yet to be created but i guess it will be in a DTS package???) when an insert runs on a table?
We need to analyse the browser versions hitting our intranet and catch the ones that are too old (earlier than IE5.5). I have the asp inserting a row with the IP address of the browser but i need to run a command line query to get the machine name from DNS (nslookup 111.222.333.444). This nslookup can be run from a vbscript.
Do i need to used a stored procedure in the process somewhere?
any thoughts welcomed
Need DTS/VBScript Guru
Nov 9, 2005I am trying to write a DTS package at work that uses a loop to fire a query off against a different server/database at each loop iteration. Prior to the execute SQL task , I use ActiveX (VBScript) to change the Catalog and DataSource of the connection (created by drag and drop if icon). My Execute SQL task selects @@servername and getdate() just as a dummy query to make sure I am actually pointed at a different server.
While testing the properties of the connection using global variables and msgbox shows that the database (catalog) and server (data source) ip address is being changed, the result returned is always from the first server. I feel like I need to disconnect the connection object, change the parameters and then reconnect to the new server but there doesn't appear to be anyway to do this.
Anyone out there able to successfully change a connection object inthis manner??

Disabling Job Using VBScript
Jun 6, 2008I have an SQL job that runs a .vbs script. It has the following code:
Cmd2.ActiveConnection = Conn2
Cmd2.CommandText = "USE msdb EXEC sp_update_job @job_name = 'Email Download',@enabled = 0"
Cmd2.CommandType = 1
Cmd2.Execute()
It's not disabling the job. If I execute in Query Analyzer, it works. I'm thinking it might be a permissions issue. Any suggestions?
TIA
