Hi,
I have just started a business and I was wondering if I could get some
advice about product selection. I am currently buiding my website
using asp.net connecting to sql server database.
My question: Am I only required to purchase a SQL Server Developers
Licence? I won't be hosting the site so I think this is correct but
thought I should check.
Cheers,
Jack

This may be an intuitively obvious question, and if so, I apologize.
Speaking in terms of best practices here, what is the preferred method for allowing developers to work with databases in SQL Server? If they use Management Studio, then they have access to tools for perhaps messing with other databases, etc. that they should not (assuming it is not correctly secured). Likewise with Enterprise Manager. I can see where they would use Query Analyzer, but these two are now combined in Management Studio.
I'm just inquiring into how other DBA's do this. I realize there are DBA's that are developers and vice-versa, but what if there is a clear line of distinction and you want to keep the tools used in these roles separate?
Thanks in advance.

I just bought a copy of SQL Server 2000 (with service pack 3a) that Iintended to install and run on XP Pro. My concern is that the requirementslist on the box do not include XP or XP Pro. Will SQL Server 2000 developeredition run on XP Pro?
View 3 Replies View RelatedDoes SQL Server 2005 Developers Edition come with Visual Studio Pro 2008? I know it did with Visual Studio Pro 2005.
If not, if I purchase SQL Server 2005 Developers Edition, can I install on the same machine as VS Pro 2008?
Will there be a Developer's edition to SQL Server 2008?
I realize I can't put databases I build into production with just the developer edition.

I have downloaded SQLServer2005SP2-KB921896-x86-ENU.exe and attempted to update to SP2 with no success.
SQL Server 2005 Developers Edition is installed on my computer as part of a Visual Studio 2005 installation.
When I try to run this package under my admin account, I get through the Feature Selection (selecting everything) to Authentication.
When I press the Test button or the Next button, I get "Your account information could not be verified. Press Ok to return to Authentication Mode screen to determine the reason for failure. For setup to verify your credentials the services must be startable, connectable, and you must be a SQL Server administrator."
The Authentication screen shows "Database Services, MSSQLSERVER, Windows, domainusername, Service Failed to Start"
I am a novice SQL Server user, Clearly I am floundering! Any observations, advice, or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
Hi all,
I need to install Database services and I get the following error:

I'm trying to upgrade my SQL Server 2000 Developer's Edition to sp3a, I'm following the instructions.
I receive the following message:
Invalid product code was found. Check if product is installed.
I have installed this from CD I have with me. I followed instruction on http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=311762
but I don't see product ID/code !!!!!
I have installed default instance (MSSQLSERVER) on my machine. How do I do Update to Service Pack 3a.
I can Install "Database Components "
Downloadable file name: SQL2KSP3.exe SP3a
but I can't install "SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine(MSDE) "
Downloadable file name: SQL2kdesksp3.exe SP3a.
Any help?
Thank you.
I have a problem. I am using the developers version of SQL Server Enterprise edition.
I am trying to run a command in MS command prompt:
Aspnet_regsql -E -S localhost -ssadd -sstype p
After I execute this command, I receive a Name Pipe
error that under the default settings, SQL Server
doesn't allow remote connections. I took some steps
to try to resolve the problem:
1) I googled the interrnet to see if there was any one
else who ran into the same problem and if there was a
quick resolution.
2) I check SQL Server Books on line about SQL server
configuration manager and how to enable remote
connections using Name Pipes and TCP/IP.
3) I used C:WINDOWSsystem32cliconfg.exe to enable
Name Pipes and TCPIP to be enable on the client.
4) I enabled SQl Server Browser to help me with my
problem
5) I stopped the Database engine, enable local and
remote connections using Name pipes and TCP/IP,then I
restarted the database engine along with SQl server
Agent.
6) I did check SQl Server error logs to see what port
it was listening on , but I thought that SQl Server
was suppose to listen on port 1433 by default, and
Name pipes /SQL/query.
7)I have check the error logs to see what port that SQL Server was listening to
and trying to use the port number in the client config utility. I am still getting the same error.
8) I tried to remove name pipes in the SQL Server Surface Manager and allow local and remote connections using only TCP/IP. I still get the same error. I did stop and restarted the Database Engine.
What steps have I not taken , and what should I do to correct this problem?
Hi , can anybody advise good provider for SQL server licence lease.
Thanks

Server setup:Server with 4 CPU's and 4G of RamThe server is used as a distributor between a separate publisher and aseparate subscriber sever.My question is:1)Can I install Standard edition of SQl Server on the distributorserver or does it need to be Enterprise. Keeping in mind that theservers primary role is to serve as a distributor in a replconfiguration.2)Can I license the server per CAL or does it need to be by CPU. I'mthinking I could license it by CAL, so I would only need to purchase acouple of CALS for the replication agents that run on the server... isthis assumption correct?Thx in advance.

I'm new to SQL Server and have two questions.
We use the "old" MSDE Engine to host our time management database.
Now we have to change the server due a hardware defect. The new machine is a Dual Xeon 3GHZ with 2GB RAM with windows 2000 server on it.
Is it allowed to use the express edition on this machine and are where any known problems for the client access?
I known many useless questions, but I didn't found any informations about these topics.
Thx for your help.

The question is regarding licences for clients who want to put their databases on the internet using our web servers. We have this in our price list as a service. We have been offering this service for a ong time.
Now we are using old licences v 7.0 for NT servers, and we need version w2000 for w2000 servers.
Our doubt is how to work the concurrent users through the internet. Can a server with mnimum number of licences serve hundereds of users through the internet,since users don't access the sql databases directly?
If anyone could help I would really appreciate it, or even offer a reference article
What type of licence do I need to run Desktop Edition of SQL 7.0. Is there such a thing as desktop license.

Hello Everyone,
Does anyone know if there are any licence implications (SAP side) against Microsoft .NET Data Provider for mySAP Business Suite?
I heard from a colleague that if my SQL Server has (for example) 5 users, if SQL does connect to SAP, it would require the user license of 5 more users?
If there any implications similar to this one with SAP?
Regards,
Joseph
I'm really new to MSDE so I just want to know...Is SQL Server 2000 a prerequisite for MSDE particularly for developers? If yes, then is it(SQL Server 2000) a prerequisite for clients?
The thing is, I can't find a tool where I can create databases after installing MSDE...the only way I can think of is also installing SQL Server 2000 and create the database from there...

Hi Everyone,
Were looking from some feedback, thoughts, comments, suggestions on a permissions issue in our SQL Server 2005 environment. We have a Development (stand-alone server) and Production (activepassive cluster). Both running SP2. We're looking for the best way to manage permissions for the developers without giving them dbo privileges.
As background information, here's a note / response from a developer outlining the permission they need.
-----------------------------------------
"Our team needs enough permissions on DB database to:
Create and modify DB object such as tables, stored procedures, keys, triggers, views, ...
Be able to execute stored procedures and other basic DB objects
One of the issue I had when working on DatabaseA which was never resolved was that I could create tables, but had no rights to modify them once created.
I could modify them via scripts, but not via graphical interface which is a pain.
I think we should have full permissions to dev DB other than to drop DB, and modify system DB settings.
So that we can work within the created DB shell completely."
-----------------------------------------
Previous to supporting the current SQL Server 2005 environment, the developersapp owners had db_owner for their databases. Definitely not a best practice as with 2005 db_owner is ablke to delete databases. Moving away from this, we thought we would scale them back and only grant them the following database roles:
db_datareader
db_datawriter
db_ddladmin
With these roles, they were able to create the tables, views, stored procedures, etc...... but problems arose when they tried to modify the objects they created as well as execute stored procedures. It's going to be a pain to grant permissions on each stored procedure. More of a mystery is allowing them to make design changes within Studio Manager. Given they can already do this using scripts but not the GUI.
So there is an issue with using GUI tools to design the tables.
Here's a thread we found that tries to explain the reason why they can't use the GUI to make design changes.
Even if you have CREATE TABLE permission, there are limitations to the modifications you can make. Remember, as you modify an existing table or design a new one, your work can induce attendant modifications in other tables. For example, if you change the data type of a foreign-key column, the corresponding column in the primary-key table will be automatically modified by the Visual Database Tools. If you do not own the primary-key table, and you are not logged in as the system administrator, database owner, or a user that is a member of the db_owner role, your modification will fail.
When we created the accounts, we assigned the default schema to be 'dbo'. This was thought to simplify administration of the objects. In SQL Server 2000, this was a best practice. Now, in SQL Server 2005, they changed everything with the user schema separation.
So we have a developer (devuser) - created with default schema (dbo). Any object that are being created are owned by dbo. (ie... dbo.table1, dbo.storedproc1, etc..) So dbo owns the objects, not the user.
Does anyone have any ideas? Do we create a new schema and assign permissions? Do we create a new fixed database role for the developers? I'm curious as to how others are assigning permissions to developers on development and production servers.
Thanks,
Rob
