Sql Express To Sql Enterprise

SQL Express Vs SQL Enterprise ??

The data limit in SQL Express is 4 GB and SQL Enterprise is unlimited. I have SQL Express installed on my desktop machine. and SQL Enterprise on my web server. Now, I am thinking to develop solution in ASP.NET with SQL Express. and finally upload the solution on web server, where SQL Enterprise is installed. So, will there be any problem in such case ?In other words, the mdf file created by SQL Express and SQL Enterprise is same or different ?

Sql Server Express And Enterprise Edition

I have sql server express edition on my local machine and sql server enterprise edition on the server.  When I try to use the import export tool on the server . it gives me this error TITLE: SQL Server Import and Export Wizard------------------------------Error 0xc00470fe: Data Flow Task: The product level is insufficient for component "Destination - DOR_outFile_txt" (193).------------------------------BUTTONS:OK------------------------------ Is this error due to the fact that I have sql server express on my local machine? If yes, then does that mean that if I am programming from my local machine, the version of SQL on the server doesn't matter?

Hi,

Ive received a .bak file of our company db from our hosting company and would like to import it into the SQL 2005 Express machine however, Ive never done this before using 2005. Previously with SQL 2000, I used the enterprise manager to view/import data into the database but Im unable to find this feature with 2005.

Can anyone help me?

Help! SQL Express, Standard Or Enterprise? Or Access?

I'm not a developer and would like your input to compare against what a sales rep is telling me.

I'm managing a small web project that will have a database with a max of 20,000 records with less than 50 field each. It will be hit by anything from 200 to 500 people in a day (max) via Internet connection from all over with all sorts of speed.

The users will select less than 50 filters to obtain the results of the info they are looking for among the 20000 records. Most users will only choose less than 10 filters per search.

That's all that the database will do...seems to me enterprise is way too much, but since I'm not expert, need one of you to help with your input.

Thanks very much!

Deploying SQL Express Throughout The Organization/Enterprise

What are some recommended methods for deploying SQL Express throughout an entire organization? It appears that Active Directory/GPO deployment is out of the equation.

SQL 2005 Express On Server 2k3 Enterprise

After a few failed installs I have gotten SQL2k5Exp installed. I have update my .net and my XML. I had the server running fine for about a week. The server still 'runs' fine, but when I connect to it with Server managment studio express I can't do anything with it. It will not allow me to expand the 'System Databases' It gives the error:

"Failed to retrieve data for this request. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Express.SmoEnum)

Additional information:

An exception occured while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch.

(Microsoft.SqlServer.Express.ConnectionInfo)

A transport-level error has occurred when receiving results from the server. (provider: Shared Memory Provider, error: 0 - The pipe has been ended.) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 109) "

I get just about the same error if I try to attach a database, the only change is the error code at the end.

After this error the SQL server service stops. I can restart it from the Services snap-in, but not inside SMSE. It will start and stop if i try to start it in SMSE.

I also find these types of errors in my event log:

"SQL Server is not ready to accept new client connections; the connection has been closed. Wait a few minutes before trying again. If you have access to the error log, look for the informational message that indicates that SQL Server is ready before trying to connect again. [CLIENT: <local machine>]"

"The SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 8 time(s)."

"The SQL Server Active Directory Helper service terminated with service-specific error 3221225572 (0xC0000064)."

Any ideas on this?

Enterprise Publisher To Express Subscribers (2005)

I implemented a merge replication publication on a SQL Server 2005

What Version: Enterprise Manager Or Management Studio Express

This may be a dumb question but I have searched and haven't found an answer to it here yet.

We are planing to get SQL Server 2005 for a specific purpose.We have several existing stand alone SQL Server 2000 database servers already. I have Enterprise Manager (2000) client installed on my PC. I recently installed SQL Server Express (2005) on my PC to get to know about new features.

I have run into problems (BCP specifically) with having two versions of C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server80... and C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90... on my PC.

Is there any point before or after we purchase Standard version of SQL Server 2005 when I can do away with C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server80... and/or uninstall Enterprise manager?

In other words can I manage SQL Server 2000 databases using only Management Studio(SQL Server 2005 client)? If not, how do I manage the two different versions of the client software on a single PC.

Thanks,

Dave K.

CREATE FULLTEXT INDEX ON [dbo].[strings_catalog] KEY INDEX [PK_strings_catalog] ON [FTSearchCat] WITH CHANGE_TRACKING AUTO
ALTER FULLTEXT INDEX ON [dbo].[strings_catalog] ADD ([string] LANGUAGE [English])
ALTER FULLTEXT INDEX ON [dbo].[strings_catalog] ENABLE



Its Ok. FTC populated and ready to queries.



Next:

I did the same actions on both and have the same results:



select id,string from strings_catalog where freetext(string, 'Ice')

---------------

767581 Summer test Ice

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------



Now I do the same actions on both:



update strings_catalog set string=N'Summer test Sea' where [id]=767581



1) Enterprise Ed:

----------------------------------

Please help, how can I resolve this issue?

Note. I installed Express Adv. on another machine and have the same result.

Remotely Register SQL Server 2005 Express In Enterprise Manager

I have SQL Server 2005 Express installed on a windows server 2003 standard edition. I have configured the windows firewall to allow exceptions for sqlservr.exe and sqlbrowser.exe. I have enabled remote and local connections using tcp/ip & Named Pipes through the Sql Server Surface Area Connection utility. I am able to telnet into the server with: telnet <server ip> <1433>.

Here is the strange part: I am able to connect to the Sql Server remotely from a development machine via Sql Server Management Studio Express, but I am unable to connect to the Sql Server from the same development machine by registering it in Sql Server Enterprise Manager...Is it possible to register SQL Express through Enterprise Manager?

When registering the SQL Express DB in Enterprise Manager I tried both just the (IP Address) of the server and the (IP AddressSQLExpress) as the server/host but I am getting the following errors from enterprise manager:

Just the (IP Address) as the server/host:
Invalid Connection.
ConnectionOpen( Invalid Instance())

(IP AddressSQLEXPRESS) as the server/host:
Sql Server does not exist or access denied. ConnectOpen(Connect()).

Any idea why I can€™t register/mount the instance remotely in Enterprise Manager
but I can in Sql Server Management Studio Express?

Thanks,

Greg

Unable To Connect Remotely After Upgrading A SQL Instance From Express To Enterprise

Problem: I upgraded a SQL Server Express instance to SQL Server Enterprise, but I'm unable to connect to the SQL server from any remote machine. Only local connections work -- and I've verified that Remote Connections are allowed in the SQL Surface Confg. utility.

Scenario: Server1 has an SQL Enterprise edition installed as a default installation. SharePoint Server 2007 was installed later, and during that install a SQL Express edition instance was installed which is part of the standard SharePoint install. That Express instance contains all the SharePoint content databases.

So Server1 has SQL instances:
Server1 <default install running Enterprise>
Server1OFFICESERVER <previously running SQL Express, now upgraded to Enterprise>

After upgrading Server1OFFICESERVER to Enterprise, everything seemed to work fine (i.e. SharePoint works fine). However when I try to connect remotely to Server1OFFICESERVER I can't. I've verified through the SQL Surface configuration tool that remote connections are allowed. I've rebooted the server as well. I've tried connecting remotely using various PCs and various applications (e.g. SQL Server Mgmt Studio, Visual Studio, etc.).

Any other ideas to try?

Not sure if this was posted but having a hard time finding an answer.
I'm currently running sql server 2000 enterprise edition on my machine and was wondering what would happen if i installed 2005 express edition and vice versa?

Cannot Upgrade SQL Server 2005 Express To SP2 After Upgrading SQL Server 2005 Enterprise To SP2

How do I upgrade Sql Server 2005 Express to SP2 if I also have SQL Server 2005 Enterprise SP2 already on the same box? I installed Sql Server 2005 Enterprise first, then applied SP2, then installed Visual Studio 2008 (which installed SQL Server 2005 Express).

When I try to upgrade Sql Server 2005 Express to SP2 using the special Express edition of SP2, I get an error message that says "None of the selected features can be installed". I end up having to cancel the install of SP2.

I'm left with SQL Server 2005 at level 9.0.3054 and SQL Server 2005 Express at 9.0.3042. How can I bring SQL Server Express 2005 to the same level as SQL Server 2005 Entperprise?

Upgrading SQL Server 2005 Express To SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition

Hello!! How can I upgrade from SQL Server 2005 Express Edition to SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition? I see allot of example of upgrading from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005, but no example on upgrading from SQL Server 2005 Express to SQL Server 2005 Enterprise or Standard. Is this possible?

Migration From SQL 2000 Enterprise Server To The SQL 2005 Enterprise Server (64 Bit-Itanium Server)

We are migration few database from SQL 2000 Enterprise Server to the SQL 2005 Enterprise Server (64 bit-Itanium Server)

Problem :

- The performance difference observer was not much (Just 15-18%)

- The CPU Utilization goes to 100% immediately, when the software login screen appears and it sustains in between 90% to 100%

- Multi-User Access (3 or more concurrent users), the sql performance is tremendously slow.

Steps followed for Migration:

- We have used the backup and restore method to migrate the data from SQL 2000 Enterprise Server to the SQL 2005 Enterprise Server (64 bit-Itanium Server).

- We ran the DBCC DBREINDEX for each affected tables

- We executed the sp_updatestats procedure for all the tables

- Upgraded the DB compatibility version to 90

- Installed the SQL 2005 Enterprise Server (64 bit-Itanium Server) Service pack 2.

One thing that we observed, was the memory usage, on SQL 2000 the sqlservr.exe uses around 1.5 GB where as on the SQL 2005 its just 120 MB.

A normal select query on 2000 Server took 11-12 sec, having 10 lac records, and the same query on 2005 took 1 min (3-5 sec CPU process taken by sqlservr and rest by the Sever Management Studio.

The only differance noted was that on 2000 the entire data was displayed at one go where as in 2005 the data was displayed at the 1st sec, and was filling the rest in the buffer, and to finally display entire data it took 1 min.

Also

when we run this query

select * from sys.dm_os_sys_info

one column os_priority_class shows a value = 32 ? what does this means.

In the MSSQLSERVER SERVICES, properties, there is a parameter displaying value

Advanced > Running Under 64 bit OS = No ? what does this means.


Could anyone pls suggest as to how to increase the sqlservr.exe memory area, and also how the enhance the performance.
