Switching Compatability Mode From 6.5 To 2000
Jan 9, 2006Do you know of any resources in terms of Transact SQL in order to migrate from 6.5 to 2000?

View 1 RepliesHi,
I have a database that is in the SQL Server 2000 compatability mode on my SQL 2005 server. I am trying to restore a backup of this database on my SQL Server 2000 database on another server and keep getting strange messages. First trying Red-Gate and then plain SQL Server with no luck.
It seems as I remember that the 7.0 and 2000 compatibility issue between backups did not arise when the compatibility mode was set to 7.0.
Is this "planned" behavior or an "undocumented feature"??? Anyone else have success doing this?
Thanks,

Hi,We currently have a fairly old product, which was originally onlycompatible with SQL 2000.When we upgraded our server to SQL 2005, the client product gave us a"This product is not compatible with this version of SQL server"error.We put the server into SQL 2000 compatability mode, and things worked.Then I tested a Windows Vista workstation client. The error returned.I realise that if we are simply dealing with a client incompatabilitywith Vista, then I'm in the wrong forum, but what I'm hoping is thatsomeone knows anything server side, perhaps where SQL 2000compatability mode becomes ignored for some reason, when the client isrunning Vista.The vendor pretty much no longer exists, and nothing I've been able todo with Vista's compatability modes has been helpful so far.

What do I need to do to make the 90 compatability mode available?
Thanks!
I sometimes have problems when running index rebuilds due to the tran log growing too big. MS suggest switching the db from full recovery mode to bulk-logged mode fur the duration of the rebuild. Question is, when you switch a db from full recovery to bulk logged, does that invalidate the tran log backups up to that point? When the db is switched back into full-recovery mode, are the following tran log backups still in sequence?

I need to know if Microsoft supports SQL Server 2000 running on the same server that functions as a Terminal Server (both NT and Windows 2000).
I checked out Microsoft.com and found that SQL Server 7 is supported with NT Terminal Services but can't locate any compatability information SQL 2000.
PS: I know this configuration doesn't make sense from a performance perspective but my customers will want to do this anyway.
Thanks!
Hi there,I have installed MS SQL Server 2005 on my machine with windows authentication. But now I want to switch the authentication mode to SQL Authentication. I am unable to switch, I can’t find the proper way to do so here in 2005.Could any one help me in doing this?Thank you,-Ahsan
View 1 Replies View RelatedI am in the process of migrating from Sql Server 2000 to 2005. Part of my plan is to move some database's to 2005, but use the 2000 compatibility mode for the short term. My issue is this, our DR boxes are still on SQL Server 2000, would I still be able to use our log shipping processes? Or would I be better off in starting with migrating the DR boxes to 2005 first?
Thanks in advance.
SQL 200 introduce changes to licensing. There are two licensing modes, Per Seat and Per Processor.
Is there a way to change the licensing mode from Per Seat to Per Processor for a current SQL Installation
Hi
I have a question about change of compability.
I want to change compability level from 2000 to 2005 on a very large database with a lot of indexes. I have heard that if I change compability level the indexes will no longer be usable.
Is it enough to just rebuild all indexed after I have changed compability level or do I have to do something else?
I have gotten my production version of SQL locked into single user mode. We recently upgraded to a clustered configeration and when I went to pause the system to get control I was told Pause was not available in a clustered environment. I restarted the service with -m [single user] but couldn't run Enterprise Manager as it appeared to take the only user slot and not give me one. Then I hit on startingup with Query Analyzer and that worked but now how do I get it back into multi-user mode. I placed the -m in the settings using Enterprise manager; could I stop the service and restart at the cmd prompt using -f [minimal config] and get Enterprise manager running? Any assistance appreciated.

I know i can use the sentence SET IMPLICIT_TRANSACTIONS ON in a Stored Procedure to force SQL Server to set the connection into implicit transaction mode.
Have i a sentence or configuration to force all SQL Server connections to implicit transaction mode?
Thanks in advance.

SQL Users/DBAs,I'm trying to move data files around for a database that is in standbymode. I can detach/attach the database fine usingSP_DETACH_DB/SP_ATTACH_DB , but when I re-attach the database the logsequence is broken and I can't restore any more logs. Does anyoneknow if there is a way to move around data files and keep the databasein standby mode?Thanks,JB

I have a customer with an RS installation in a DMZ, using ADAM for its authentication.
The problem I have is as follows :
When setting up the execution log reporting (supplied as part of the standard install) all information being captured for report execution e.g Which user ran a specific report and when, is coming up with 'UNKNOWN' for the user name.
Does anyone have any idea where to look to fix the recording of user information? I am not sure whether it is a RS or A.D.A.M issue.
Thanks

Hi All
I€™m having a problem setting up maintenance plans on one of our SQL 2005 servers but first here€™s a bit of back ground.
The server is a Virtual machine running win2k3R2 SP2 server std and SQL 2k5, A supplier arrived to install and app on the server when discovering there app didn€™t work with 2k5 they seem to have set the 2 dbs on the server into 2k compatibility mode and set the entire SQL install to think its a 2000 install. (I€™m not sure how this is done all I can see is the wrong version number in management studio) The problem this is giving me it that the folder in management studio for Database Maintenance Plans is no longer under the management folder instead it under a sub folder called Legacy (which is how management studio seems to deal with all registered 2000 instances) and as such a can no longer right click and create new database maintenance plans is there any way around this or will I have to setup my backup job manually?
Ohh and have the supplier shot at dawn
Thanks All

Hello everyone,
We have SQL server 2000 on windows 2000. From our desktop MS Access was connected to database through ODBC. Since yesterday (after our consultant had updated another asp application in the same server) we are getting €œSQL Server Error: 18452. €¦.. Login failed for user €˜(null)€™. Reason: not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection. €œ
The consultant saying he did not touch any settings on server (?). And the problem is even server€™s security property shows it has mixed mode authentication. But I cannot connect to server even through my SQL server enterprise manager in windows authentication mode. I can connect if I use SQL server authentication. Through ODBC I can connect also and test fine, if I use SQL authentication. But the Access application wouldn€™t connect using SQL authentication in ODBC.
So, can any one help me to find out what else could be done to make sure that the server is going to accept windows authentication. I€™m thinking any other settings or registry change €¦ etc. Please help.
Thanks
How do I check the compatability level of a database?
The db in question was originally created in SQL 6.5 and converted to 7.0. Would this have reset the compatability level to 7 or left it at 6.5?
If it is at 6.5 what are the implications of changing it to 7?
Ray, if you answer this can you please forward me your email address. Thanks.
Finally, I may have a good enough excuse to justify changing the compatabilty level of one of the biggies I look after!
Before I go ahead with the change I just wanted to run a couple of questions passed the community.
I know this is very vague, but what sort of problems should I expect? I know there are a few syntax changes, but I don't imagine I will have a problem going up in compatability level!
What is the best method to perform this?
A very simple
EXEC sp_dbcmptlevel 'playdb', 80
Or
ALTER DATABASE SET SINGLE_USER
EXEC sp_dbcmptlevel 'playdb', 80
ALTER DATABASE SET MULTI_USER
How long does this process take; are we talking seconds, minutes, hours? I imagine it's seconds, but I pose this question because a colleague reckons it will take longer because of the database size. I argue that because it's a db configuration setting, it will make no difference...
Thanks a bunch,
George
Does SQL Server Express Edition work with a Pentium M computer? When I downloaded it there was a message that it wasn't the proper hardware but everything else fits the requirements for an install.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am currently running a sqlServer 2000 database and am considering changing it to 2005 I see that I can do this via Properties> options and changing the dropdownbut are there any risks?
I'm sure this question has already been asked, I made an attempt to search the forums, but was unsuccessful.
Our production servers are currently running SQL Server 2000 3a. I just got a new development system and have no intentions of installing SQL Server 2000 dev, but SQL Server 2005 Dev Edition.
I was wondering if I will still be able to install SQL2005 and still be able to administer/modify 2000 mdfs with SQL 2005 Enterprise Manager. I wanted to be able to still make development on SQL 2k5 and update the production server (SQL2k). This is on my dev system not the production, the production will still be running SQL 2k, until the client decides on purchasing SQL 2k5.
Of course I will not be able to use the new db features and types on a SQL2000 server, I just want to maintain the legacy with 05 Enterprise Manager (i.e.: SP, UDF and DTO).
Thanks a gig.

Hello,everyone!!
There is a query which when executed in the grid mode(ctrl+d) takes approx 0.02 seconds(about 21,000
rows) But when I execute in the text mode, it takes about 0.40 seconds!!
Why is this difference?
Also, when the records from this table are read from a VB application, they are equally slow (as in the text mode!)
Why is it so slow on the text mode & relatively faster in the grid mode?
Has anyone got any idea on ‘Firehose’ style cursor ?(which may speed up access of data in the VB application)
Rgds,
Adie
