Upgrading Standalone 2005 Server To A Clustered Server
May 15, 2007
I have attached the SAN, configured the Windows Clustering and I'm ready for SQL. SQL Server 2005 was already on this machine as a stand alone. I removed all of the software and I'm reinstalling SQL. The cluster option is not enabled. Any ideas why?

Please could anyone tell me what are the real differences between SQL Server 2005 bundled along with Visual Studio.NET and a standalone one.
Thanks in advance.

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?

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?

I first tried installing the DVD and of course it told me I must use the command prompt installation method to include the line SKUUPGRADE=1. I found good references to this in the following links:
http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2208593&SiteID=1
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms144259.aspx
Below is the command I issued at the command prompt:
start /wait d:serverssetupsetup.exe ADDLOCAL=ALL INSTANCENAME=URHCS63SQL2005DSS UPGRADE=SQL_Engine SKUUPGRADE=1 /qb
My servername is URHCS63 and my instance is SQL2005DSS.
When I execute this command, a installation dialog box opens briefly and then disappears and nothing else happens. Here are the results of the bootstrap log file:
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 9.00.3042.00

SQL Server Setup was interrupted. For more information, review the Setup log file in %ProgramFiles%Microsoft SQL Server90Setup BootstrapLOGSummary.txt.

Any ideas on why this is not working for me?

Hello,
at the moment I have the following problem:
We have installed a version of the MSDE 2000 Sp3 with our software since 2005. Now we install SQL Server Express 2005 in order to use the latest version and to be compatible with Vista.
We have never had any problems with the MSDE, so it was no problem that we installed the german version (by mistake) because there never was any output at installation time.
When we now upgrade the existing MSDE installing the new version of our software, there are often problems and there are error messages, unfortunately in german, which cannot be read by most of our international users.
The problem is, that there seems to be no possibility to upgrade the existing (german) MSDE with the english version of SQL Server Express 2005.
My question is, if it is possible to upgrade the german MSDE to the english SQL Server 2005 to enable our international users to read the error messages at installation time in english?
Thanks in advance.
Best regards,
Peter

Hi,
We just upgraded 2 sql servers from sql server 2000 sp3a to sql server 2005 build 2153, and merge rep exists between these 2 servers.
However, after sql server upgrade, we had to reinitialize merge replication and now the merge agent is reporting 2 errors
1)
Error messages:
The Merge Agent failed to upgrade triggers, metadata and stored procedures on the Subscriber to versions compatible with SQL Server 2005. Restart synchronization, and if this failure continues to occur reinitialize the subscription. (Source: MSSQL_REPL, Error number: MSSQL_REPL-2147199403)

Invalid column name 'delete_proc'. (Source: MSSQLServer, Error number: 207)
Get help: http://help/207
2)
Command attempted:
{call sp_MSensure_single_instance (N'Merge Agent Name', 4)}
Error messages:
The merge process could not connect to the Publisher 'Server:database'. Check to ensure that the server is running. (Source: MSSQL_REPL, Error number: MSSQL_REPL-2147199368)
Get help: http://help/MSSQL_REPL-2147199368
Another merge agent for the subscription(s) is running or the server is working on a previous request by the same agent. (Source: MSSQLServer, Error number: 21036)
Get help: http://help/21036
looking inside the sp_MSensure_single_instance stored procedure, it's trying to obtain an exclusive lock on resource 'Merge Agent Name' but fails and returns -1
this is the stored procedure executed by sp_MSensure_single_instance and @retcode = -1 and thus cannot obtain exclusive lock on resource
EXEC @retcode = sys.sp_getapplock @Resource = 'Merge Agent Name',
@LockMode = 'Exclusive',
@LockOwner = 'Session',
@LockTimeout = 0,
@DbPrincipal = 'MSmerge_PAL_role'
so i think it's failing because for some reason MSmerge_PAL_role database role does not have enough rights to obtain exclusive lock on necessary resources
i've tried many things to fix this, including scripting out and dropping all merge rep, turning off replication db option and reapplying replication create scripts on the server, and even manually deleting the MSmerge_PAL_role database role but still doesn't work
can anyone help?
Thanks

Hello All,
I'm running Windows XP SP2 and I had SQL Server 2005 running on my box. I needed to run the SP1 upgrade but it doesn't seem to work. I ran Windows Update and the list showed I need to install SP1 and it looked like it ran fine but when I checked the version after the upgrade it hadn't upgraded to .2047. I went back to Windows Update and it said I still needed SP1. So I tried downloading SP1 and running it myself still no luck. So then I decided to uninstall SQL Server 2005 completely, reinstall it and try the SP1 again (using Windows Update) and nothing in fact I'm now getting the error...
"Error Code: 0x2BC4"
...which I haven't been able to find anything on. Does ANYONE have any ideas on what might be happening?
Thanks in advance for any help.

I have upgraded my server from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005. After upgrading, I noticed that an important option in a specific application isn't working, giving a generic error message ("Cannot update the database").
Using SQL Profiler, I found that the query that fails includes the expression:
Code Snippet
DateAdd(DateInteval.Day, ..., ...)
And the error message is: "'DateInterval.Day' is not a recognized dateadd option".
This query:
Code Snippet
SELECT DateAdd(DateInterval.Day, 2, getdate())
Works on SQL Server 2000 servers, while failing on SQL Server 2005 servers, with the same error message as above.
However, this query:
Code Snippet
SELECT DateAdd(Day, 2, getdate())
Works on both SQL Server 2000 servers and SQL Server 2005 servers.
I searched for documentation of this problem, and couldn't find any.
The code for the original application is lost, so changing it is impossible.
Any help or guidance would be appreciated.

I restored a 2000 database back up in to my 2005 database and it works fine. THe only problem is that I cannot create diagrams.
I get the following message:
Database diagram support objects cannot be installed because this database does not have a valid owner. To continue, first use the Files page of the Database Properties dialog box or the ALTER AUTHORIZATION statement to set the database owner to a valid login, then add the database diagram support objects.
I have checked the db_owner and that is a valid owner.
I changed a few times to different owners and still could not install the diagrams..
Any ideas?

I have to upgrade and move SQL Server 2000 databases from a platform using Server 2000 to one running SQL Server 2005. The server nameinstances will need to be the same so that a number of third party applications and front end systems that connect, and are outside of my control, will not need any data source changes. The servers will be on the same network and can't co-exist with the same name so I guess that I have to go "big bang".
Does anyone have any suggestions for a strategy that I can use?
Does anyone know of any issues that I should be aware of?
I have run the SQL Server 2005 Upgrade Advisor and it tells me the databases should upgrade OK with a few minor issues that can be fixed after.
Thanks,

I had a SQL2000 DB Server with a simple database. I did an "in place" upgrade to SQL2005 expecting the DB Server and databases to upgrade. However, now when I run SQL Server Management Studio and enter the query:-
SELECT SERVERPROPERTY('productversion'), SERVERPROPERTY ('productlevel'), SERVERPROPERTY ('edition')
I get the answer:-
8.00.2039 SP4 Enterprise Edition
Why didn't it upgrade? And how do I upgrade it now? I'm very confused!

Hi I currently have this edition of SQL server on my laptop:
Microsoft SQL Server 2000 - 8.00.2039 (Intel X86)
May 3 2005 23:18:38
Copyright (c) 1988-2003 Microsoft Corporation
Desktop Engine on Windows NT 5.1 (Build 2600: Service Pack 2)
It is running on SQL Server Management Studio 2005.
I wish to upgrdade to Developer Edition (as my laptop won't support Enterprise as it's running on Windows XP).
I have some questions, which I would be grateful if somebody could help answering:
1- will all my database remain as they are?
2- Will I loose any functionality?
3- Will it upgrade or intstall a separate edition?
4- Can anybody recommend where to purchase Developer 2005 edition?
5- I currently have 2gb capped database limit on my version, will I get a no capped limit?
6- Will the 2gb Capped limit increase to uncapped once I install (i.e. can i use my previous 2gb database and add more data to above 2 gb)
The main issues are that I need an uncapped limit for my DB's and that I will keep my existing db's.
Many thanks!!!!!

What are the pro's and con's of these Sql Server 2005 Editions:

I am having to choose between the two for upgrade, and would be interested to know what your experience would tell me. Though it would be entertaining to go with the victor of a google fight(http://googlefight.com/index.php?lang=en_GB&word1=sql+server+2005+workgroup&word2=sql+server+2005+standard), I should probably be responsible about this.

Hello all,
I'm finding the documentation online to upgrading from 2000 to 2005 fairly poor.
What are the upgrading options and which one is the best option for a web server database.
Also what are best practices pre-upgrade, during upgrade and post-upgrade.
Cannot find much online.
Also since this question will be asked often might as well make it a sticky.
Thanks

Hello
I'm trying to upgrade a Microsoft SQL 2000 (8.00.760 SP3) server to SQL 2005.
It€™s a standard install, std version, not very big databases, default instance, plenty of memory etc. OS is a 2003 server recently upgraded from 2000. All patches etc are installed.
Upgrade was going fine and had got approx 90% through, had started the 2005 db service and converted the databases before it got the following error:
SQL Server Setup could not connect to the database service for server configuration. The error was: [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Invalid connection string attribute Refer to server error logs and setup logs for more information. For details on how to view setup logs, see "How to View Setup Log Files" in SQL Server Books Online.
The 'For help' link returned the helpful... €˜We are sorry but we can€™t help€™...
Worked through http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143698.aspx but not 100% applicable and didn€™t resolve.
Partially rolled back, rebooted and resumed install but failed in the same place. Ended going back to a backup snapshot so is now back running as SQL 2000.
Excerpt from install log is below...
Thanks in advance for any assistance.

Help please...
We have developed a system for a medium size company in NYC using SQL Server 2000.
We are about to go live and thought it may be a good idea to upgrade first from SQL Server 2000 to 2005.
I believe standard edition would be sufficient but I am not 100% sure... There isn't a whole lot of data but high availability is crucial. I was thinking of a 2-node fail over cluster setup and/or mirroring.
We need only one instance of SQL Server with about 30 client machines accessing the same databases.
Any thoughts/comments as far as:
Standard or Enterprise?
What type of licensing? Support agreement?
What about the best setup for highest availability? (fail over cluster vs. mirroring vs. replication)
Thanks,
Toshu.

Hi
We just upgraded a sql 2K ActiveActive 2 node cluster to SQL2005. The upgrade seemed to go OK.
We also managed to apply SP1 to Node 1 after an initial problem
But now when applying SP1 to NODE 2 we are getting this error
"A recently applied update, NULL, failed to install"
We had the same problem on NODE 1. Turns out after installing client connection tools and management tools SP1 succeeded. But it does not seem to work on Node2
And yes both nodes have been rebooted.
Any help is appreciated. thanks

Hi - quick question.
I wanted to upgrade pre-release version of SQL Express to the latest version, and wanted to make sure that none of the database information would be lost. The thing that concerns me is that it states to uninstall previous versions of SQL Server 2005 Express before installing the latest version. I threw the database tables into a backup directory, and I think this should be fine, but I want to be sure. Let me know. Thanks!
