Are there any differences between the Developer Addition and Enterprise Addition of 64 Bit SQL Server 05 that would prevent me from testing full capabilities of my production Enterprise Addition in a QA environment utilizing Developer Addition? Any known restrictions on number of DB connections, memory, CPUs etc??
There are conflicting postings everywhere about this. I built a small site using VWD and SQL Server Express, but need to convert to Sql Server 2005 Developer because the DB will exceed 4Gb. Tried to install and could not connect or use from VWD. Tried to uninstall, got into large mess with the byzantine uninstall process, and have now started with a clean machine.
I installed SQL Server 2005 Developer first, then installed VWD Express 2008 without installing SQL Server Express. VWD won't let me connect to an existing database, won't let me add a new database and doesn't even show the Database Tools option under the Tools menu.
Is there someone with specific knowledge that can provide any enlightenment? Would be much appreciated.
Can someone here confirm or deny that Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition doesn't work with SQL Server Developer Edition 2005?
I was about to order SQL Server Developer Edition 2005 on Amazon, to use with Visual Web Developer 2005 Express, when I read a user comment that the two are incompatible with each other. Does anyone know for sure if that is true?
What I'm wanting to do is develop an ASP.NET web application on a web host using a SQL Server database. I use VS2003 and SQL Server Enterprise 2000 at work, but I'd like to learn the 2005 editions for this side project. I don't own any of the developer tools/IDEs personally, so I'm trying to find the most affordable way to do this for my home business.
We are looking for a software program that will allow us to test our SQL server. We are looking for the most thorough tool that is available. I was asked to post a message, so I do not have too many details.
I currently have Apache, MySQL and php running on my local machine to enable me to test php code on localhost
I've been asked by a colleague if I'll work on an SQL 2000 database they're having trouble with. They said they will provide Visual.net, SQL 2000 and any other software I need.
I'm completely in the dark on this, but have some starting questions:
To test my code, will I need to set up a sever on localhost?
Will I need other software than Visual.net and SQL 2000? I'm using DW MX for my web stuff.
Whre can I find a basic introduction to ASP / SQL 2000 in the form of a tutorial?
How fast does this combination run? The database has 25,000 rows and 6 columns. What would be a reasonal expect time for a result?
What do you recommend for stress-testing the performance of key stored procedures (they have been identified) for our application? The parameters can be programatically selected, for example: Select 'exec my_proc @id = ' + Cast(id As varchar) From myTable Where foo = 'bar' I have the Support Tools Available For Stress Testing & Performance Analysis (http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=5691AB53-893A-4AAF-B4A6-9A8BB9669A8B&displaylang=en) from Microsoft's site and they are pretty good.
Recommendations appreciated, and thanks in advance!
Hello all. I'm giving serious thought on changing gears withing the IT world. For several years I have been a software developer who has been fortunate enough to have been involved in the needed databases. From just sketching out tables for the DBA to doing the database from the ground up and maintaining it during production. Along the way I've known that I didn't do as quality of a job as a knowledgeable DBA would do but given the situations I made do just fine.
I am considering switching gears to the database side only, coding as secondary. Since I am basically familier with most aspects of SQL Server in a general way, I am looking to take that knowledge and become a "Professional". What I am looking for is a few books to help out. Maybe a "Become a DBA for Software Developers" or something. I know that mining these and other forums are very valuble but I'd like some other training materials as well.
Have I been clear enough on what I am looking for? I don't quite feel like I have.
Basically, what would you recommend for a good software developer who is looking on switching to becoming a good database person?
I'd like to stay in SQL Server for now, since that is what they use here and it would give me an opportunity to practice.
Also, do you see value in the studying process for certifications in this area?
I can't tell if the SQL Developer install upgraded the service, but left the SqlExpress version information, or if I'm still really only using SqlExpress.
Also, my intended target is SQL Enterprise, so if I am using SQL Express am I asking for trouble when I go to move the database over? Are the database formats compatible?
I've poked around trying to search for this answer for a while and haven't turned anything up. Maybe I'm searching on the wrong terms...

I'm going to be starting a web application this week. I have quite a bit of experience with Access Databases, and I've also used MySQL (back in my PHP days, thank GOD for ASP.NET). The server we use to host our websites allows us to use SQL Server databases, so I want to move in that direction, but I'm not really sure where to start. If I download MSDE, and start a database with it on a site I will be developing locally (on my XP box), will it be difficult for me to transfer the database (or layout of the database) to a production server running SQL Server. I know they're basically the same database, but I'm just afraid to start with an MSDE database and then get the site nearly complete, and then not know how to transfer it to a SQL Server DB.
I'm particularly interested to know if the majority of the database creation will be done through queries (similar to MySQL) because I figure if it is, then I can use the same queries to create the database on both the local and production server.
I just want to make sure that downloading MSDE will be a step in the right direction.
Perhaps links or tutorials or some information on things to watch out for as I take on this process would be so greatly appreciated.
I have a server with several linked servers. Before I execute sql against any of these linked servers I want to check to make sure the connection is active.
I created a small stored procedure that takes the server name. I am trying to get it to run a simple select statement. If the select statement runs without errors (meaning the linked server is active) I want to return a value for success. If the select statement fails I want to return a value for a failure.
The problem is that I am having trouble with the error. When I shut down the linked server and run the select statement I get the following error returned:
Server: Msg 11, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 General network error. Check your network documentation.
The stored procedure I have only returns this message and does not send the return value that I set. How do I get my procedure to return a failure value instead of the following error above? Is there a better way for me to check for this type of error?
Hi Group, I'm trying to test an ASP application in 'isolation' and seem to be having problems with connecting to the Server. The setup is EXACTLY like the production environment except for the fact that I am using the Beta version of SQL.
The error refers to SQL Server not existing. I get this error also if I try to open the Query Analyzer without FIRST starting the Services via the Service Manager - so I think it is probably something wrong with the Beta Installation rather than using the BETA version as a back-end.
I've tried using the Computer name as the Server to connect to as well as 127.0.0.0 - neither seem to want to connect.
I can connect manually and see the Database objects. I've even connected, left the connection open and tried running the application again. I still get the same error.
Has anyone experienced this before? i.e not being able to connect to a BETA version of SQL to test an ASP application locally.
Hi, I'm new to the whole MS SQL server thing, have been using Access in past developments via the development platform in Dreamweaver.
Now I'm making the leap to MS SQL and still want to use Dreamweaver to handle some of the development aspects, does anyone know how or what i would need to do to have a direct connection with the server in dreamweaver?

Our database is in Sql Server 2005 Mode 80 at the moment and we need to switch it to Mode 90. We need a lilst of all incompatibilities that exist.
Essentially, we need a list similar to what the Upgrade Advisor provides for 2000 databases. The only problem is our DB is already in 2005 mode 80. Switching to mode 90 is easy but does not identify all potential problems for us.
Is there a tool that is similar to the Upgrade Advisor that we can run on 2005 Mode 80 databases?

i have to find the total salary(i.e. salary+bonus)
this is how i managed to do it:
select empname,(salary + commission) as 'total salary' from emp where commission is not null union select empname,salary from emp where commission is null
now my question is,wht if the case now is different as below:
salary bonus hra 1 null 6 2 5 null 3 null null
now how do i calculate total salary(i.e. salary+bonus+hra)
I Have 3 columns. First 2 columns are Text and the third one is Number. I need to see if any duplicate values are there in first 2 columns. If so then i need to add the values of 3 columns and make it one. So the output should look like this,
I have some C# code that is pulling data from a database where a majority of the values being retrieved are NULL , yet their initial column data types are both string and int, which means that I have to temporarily store these NULL's in int and string data types in C#. Later on in my code I have to test against these values, and was wondering if I am doing it correctly with the following code.
The following statement the variable or_team_home_id is of a string data type, but may have had a NULL value assigned to it from the database if (!or_team_home_id.Equals(DBNull.Value)) {}
The following statement the variable or_manager_id is of a int data type, but also may have a NULL value assigned to it from the database. if (!Convert.IsDBNull(or_manager_id)){}
Are these the correct way to test against NULL values retrieved from teh database and that are stored in their respective data types.
Recently, we have migrated our database from 32bit to 64bit. So far the application is working fine.
But I want to confirm that by any tool or automated process.
Is there any way or tool to check that the migrated data is correct and also to check if migrated database objects will work fine in 64 bit environment.
Hi I have a query, what I would like to do is create a column that takes the results in two coulms and add them together: Col A Col B Col C Row1 1 1 2 Row2 2 3 5 Here is the query declare @t table( player_name varchar(100), BuyIn int, TopUp int, ReBuy int, Winnings int, Events int, Test int) INSERT INTO @t (player_name, TopUp) SELECT Player_name, SUM([Top-ups]) AS TOPUPS FROM (SELECT Event_data.Transaction_type, Players.Player_name, Events.Top_up, Event_data.Transaction_value, Events.Top_up * Event_data.Transaction_value AS [Top-ups] FROM Event_data INNER JOIN Events ON Event_data.Event_id = Events.id INNER JOIN Players ON Event_data.Player_id = Players.Player_id WHERE (Event_data.Transaction_type = 2)) AS Topups GROUP BY player_name INSERT INTO @t (player_name, ReBuy ) SELECT Player_name, SUM([Re-buys]) AS REBUYS FROM (SELECT Event_data.Transaction_value, Players.Player_name, Events.Rebuys, Event_data.Transaction_value * Events.Rebuys AS [Re-buys] FROM Event_data INNER JOIN Events ON Event_data.Event_id = Events.id INNER JOIN Players ON Event_data.Player_id = Players.Player_id WHERE (Event_data.Transaction_type = 3)) AS REBUYS GROUP BY Player_name Insert into @t (player_name, BuyIn) SELECT dbo.Players.Player_name, SUM(dbo.Events.Buy_in) AS BuyIn FROM dbo.Players INNER JOIN dbo.Event_data ON dbo.Players.Player_id = dbo.Event_data.Player_id INNER JOIN dbo.Events ON dbo.Event_data.Event_id = dbo.Events.id GROUP BY dbo.Players.Player_name, dbo.Event_data.Transaction_type HAVING (dbo.Event_data.Transaction_type = 1) ORDER BY SUM(dbo.Events.Buy_in) DESC
Insert into @t (player_name, Winnings) SELECT dbo.Players.Player_name, SUM(dbo.Event_data.Transaction_value) AS Winnings FROM dbo.Players INNER JOIN dbo.Event_data ON dbo.Players.Player_id = dbo.Event_data.Player_id GROUP BY dbo.Players.Player_name, dbo.Event_data.Transaction_type HAVING (dbo.Event_data.Transaction_type = 1) insert into @t (player_name, Events) SELECT dbo.Players.Player_name, COUNT(dbo.Event_data.Place) AS Expr1 FROM dbo.Players INNER JOIN dbo.Event_data ON dbo.Players.Player_id = dbo.Event_data.Player_id INNER JOIN dbo.Events ON dbo.Event_data.Event_id = dbo.Events.id GROUP BY dbo.Players.Player_name HAVING (NOT (COUNT(dbo.Event_data.Place) IS NULL)) insert into @t (player_name, test) select player_name, ((TopUp) + (Rebuy)) as Test from @t SELECT player_name, min (BuyIn) as BuyIn, min(TopUp) as TopUps, min(ReBuy)as ReBuy, min(Winnings) as Winnings, min(Events) as Events, min(test) as test FROM @t GROUP BY player_name ORDER BY BuyIn DESC --ORDER BY TOPUPS DESC
END
THis is where I attempt to add the coloms but I get a null result
insert into @t (player_name, test) select player_name, ((TopUp) + (Rebuy)) as Test from @t
I am trying one of the examples from the .NET Framework 2.0 Web-Based Client Development and I'm having a problem authenticating. I'm running everything on my local computer (IIS, SQL 2005 STANDARD ADDITION and Visual Studio). While in Visual Studio (in other words, debug mode) when I run the example, I get the following error: Cannot open database "pubs" requested by the login. The login failed.Login failed for user 'DPJ-6E95AFFA416ASPNET'. This could be more of a SQL question that a ASP.NET question, but I'm not sure. I'm running under the local administrator account, but this seems to indicate that ASP is using it's own credentials to access SQL. This is my first time using these tools, and I'm guessing this is a fairly well know issue. I was looking for a "User Admin" function in SQL and could not find it, so I'm a bit lost here. Can anyone help please. Thanks

We are using Sql Server 2008 R2. We are planning to move to 2014 either through in-place o side-by-side. Mostly side-by-side.
Here first we want to test that 2014 and availability groups. First we are doing in dev box to test. Also we need asynchronous replica because just we need to use that as reporting server.
We want to take work load. For the dev boxes, the applications doesn't connect. Then in that case what the people will do.
If We take database backup from prod to that dev and run some queries in the loop and run the trace for some time and do either in-place migration or side-by-side migration and use the same back to restore and doing the running the same queries and compare this trace to previous trace will work?
