Using Copy Database Wizard To Upgrade To 2005
Jun 6, 2007
Hello All:
I'm new to this forum and new to the upgrade process for SQL2K5. I would like to get this upgrade moving. However, I running into a few problems. Right now I am attempting to use the Copy Database Wizard. SQL2K5 and SQL2K are installed on different servers.
I made a copy of the tables for the database I am converting and this is the one I am trying to copy over.
The process runs fine until it gets to the SQL Server Agent Job. It fails on this step and prompts to check the event log.
Does anyone know what might cause this?
Right now I'm looking for the easiest solution to test the data. Is the copy database wizard the best approach? Can anyone recommend another one? Maybe backup/restore.
I used export from SQL2K to SQL2K5 and that worked, but it brought over the dbo prefixes.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Or at least a shove in the right direction.
Thanks,
Cleech

When I use the "Copy Database Wizard" everything works fine, but the "Identity Specification" is changed in the new database.
Source database (original):
Column Name = HTML_ID
Data Type = int
Identity Specification = Yes
Is Identity = Yes
Identity Increment = 1
Identity Seed = 1
Destination database (copy):
Column Name = HTML_ID
Data Type = int
Identity Specification = No
Is Identity = No
Identity Increment =
Identity Seed =
Why? Is this a feature or a bug?

I was looking at the Database Copy Wizard to copy a database. But it says my local system does not have the permission to copy files over the network. I looked over some tuturials and changed the settings in the Security, System Account, was using my local account which has the sysadmin role, which should allow me to copy? not sure whether I am right? Any ideas as to what I am doing wrong?
Thanks in advance,

Hi,
I am attempting to use the Copy Database Wizard to copy databases from SQL Server 7 to a 2000 box. I scripted and then dropped all replications but I am still receiving an error stating that the wizard cannot be used due to replication being present. Does any know how I can work around this and still be able to use the wizard?
Thank You

Hi, I'm trying to copy a database from a prod server to a development server and it keeps failing. The job first creates the share with no problem and then puts the database in single user mode. It then detaches the database succesfully but we keep failing on the copy file step. The step error code is 80004005. The problem is not space there is plenty on the destination server. I've tried running the job using both the administrator and sa logins. Does anyone have any suggestions?

When I use the Copy Database Wizard to create a SQL job it doesn't work. I get an error in the log file that says something like "Source database is not set to an instance". (I forget exactly, its been a while and it happens at work)
I've tried everything I can think of.
The source and destination are on the same server, and the SQL account is a local admin on the machine.
Any ideas?
Thanks

Hi to all,I'm trying to use the copy database wizard to copy a database from the2000 version to the 2005 version of sql server. I choose not to copylogins so I expect to find a database with only an administrative logino none at all. When I start the created package it throws an errorsaying:errorCode=-1073548784 description=Executing the query "EXECdbo.sp_grantdbaccess @loginame = N'PresIng1', @name_in_db = N'PresIng1'" failed with the following error: "'PresIng1' is not a valid login oryou do not have permission.". Possible failure reasons: Problems withthe query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not setcorrectly, or connection not established correctly.I told the wizard NOT to transfer logins. What is it doing?In the origin engine there's mixed mode auth (win + sqlserver) and indestination engine there's only win auth: can it be an issue?Thanks,Gabriele

we need to move databases from one SQL Server 2005 to another SQL Server 2005 server. We are using the copy database wizard. We are planning to move the databases using the SQL management object method rather than the detach and reattach method. Both ways transport logins without an issue. I also know that the SQL management object method is slower. Other than speed is there any reason I should use the detach and reattach method over the SQL management object method or is there a better way.

I have two servers (server 2003) both running SQL Server Enterprise Edition Version 8. One SQL server is Primary, the other is Secondary. The system was doing a daily export from primary and import to secondary, but that quit working a while back. I'm trying to copy the databases from the Primary to the Secondary and than set up replication. I'm already stuck at copying the databases over using the copy database wizard. The servers are not on a domain, and the SQL server service is running as user ./sql. When using the copy database wizard i must use windows authication for it to select the Primary as the sourse, as inputing the SQL Server authication user (sql) and password says it cannot connect. When i select one of the databases to copy and run the wizard it gives me an error code -2147467259, in which google did not help me. It runs through the process of creating a temporary share, puts it in single user mode, detaches the DB, but fails to copy the file. I believe it is some sort of permissions issue on the drive, and gave user sql full access, and after that didnt work i gave "everyone" full access temporary to see if that worked but didnt. Do these servers need to be on a domain for this to work? I also read MSoft knowledgebase http://support.microsoft.com/kb/274463 Id rather not have set these up for a domain. Thanks!

I am getting the MaximumErrorCount error when running the Copy Database Wizard. There is an error that I recognize with a stored procedure. I am not interested necessarily in fixing the stored proc error. Rather, I want to just simply copy it "as is" (working in production by the way) and then modify it locally.
I am trying to copy a production database to a develoment environment in order to test against some data. I keep getting the following error:
"The Execution method succeeded, but the number of errors raised (1) reached the maximum allowed (1); resulting in failure. This occurs when the number of errors reaches the number specified in MaximumErrorCount."
How do I configure the MaximumErrorCount on a particular Copy Database process?
I have looked through the documentation, and have not found any place in the UI to make this change.
I am copying a SQL 2000 db to a SQL 2005 (SP1) instance running on Windows XP SP2.
It makes no sense that I cannot make a configuration as recommended by the error message.
Thanks.
Dennis

I've read somewhere that in order to use the Copy Database wizard using Management Studio, I must be running SQL2005 SP2. Mine is still at original release (no sp). Can I still use the wizard to copy 2000 dbs to 2005?
Thanks in advance.

Hi
I'm experiencing problems copying a SQL 2000 database from my host to a local SQL Server.
I choose the Data Source OK, using SQL Server Authentication and the username and password used to setup my hosted database.
Then I specify the destination, my local server. I'm using my sa account and password and creating a <new> database (doesn't matter if I use the same db name as the source or a different one, I'm still getting an error).
I then choose "Copy objects and data between SQL Server databases", then take all defaults on the "Select Objects to Copy screen", i.e. create destination objects drop objects first and include dependent objects); creat data (replacing existing data); Copy all objects and use default options.
The copy appears to be creating a script OK (runs up to 100%), then looks to start copying objects. It gets to approx 20% and reports that it "Failed to copy objects from Microsoft SQL Server to Microsoft SQL Server". When I click on the Executing Package entry it tells me:
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]The login already has an account under a different user name.
I can't seem to find any reference to this error in my books or on Google (usually a great source of info). Can't help feeling I'm doing something stupid. Would be very, very greatful if someone out there could give me a pointer in the right direction.
Thanks,
Keith.

I am trying to migrate a 2008 R2 (SP1) database with one secondary data file to a separate 2014 server using the Copy Database Wizard from the 2014 server, and connect to both SQL engines on that server. It consistently fails on step 5. I'm logging to a text file and the error I see is as follows:
InnerException-->Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.
CREATE DATABASE failed. Some file names listed could not be created. Check related errors.
StackTrace: at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection, Action`1 wrapCloseInAction)
I created a test database on the same 2008 server, also with a secondary data file, and it migrated flawlessly using the CDW. I am using the copy object method in all cases, and not the detach/attach method.
I would prefer to perform this without any downtime on the source (production) database.

I have a new Windows 8.1 64-bit machine onto which I have installed everything that I had on my previous Windows 7 machine. Occasionally I like to use the Copy Database Wizard in SQL 2012 to create a copy of a database on my stand-alone laptop before I begin a new stage of development on it. However, I have failed to run it successfully on my new Windows 8 laptop, despite everything apart from the operating system being identical to my Windows 7 machine, on which I never encountered a problem.
do not suggest using backup instead of the Copy Database Wizard, as if something has worked for me perfectly for 15 years I would like to know why it does not work now. The error message that I receive is shown at the end of this message.
The log-on accounts for SQL Server Agent and SQL Server Integration Services 11.0 are NT ServiceSQLSERVERAGENT and NT ServiceMsDtsServer110 respectively, as they were on my Windows 7 machine. All services are running. Why I receive the error stating, "Arithmetic operation resulted in an overflow" for every database that I have tried to copy, including a new database with no tables that I created to see if I still received this error. As I said, the problem relates to trying to copy databases onto the same machine on which the original database exists.
Event Name: OnError
Message: Failed to connect to server XXXXXXX.
StackTrace: at Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Common.ConnectionManager.Connect()
at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Tasks.TransferObjectsTask.TransferObjectsTask.OpenConnection(Server& server, ServerProperty serverProp)
InnerException-->Arithmetic operation resulted in an overflow.

I have a SQL Server 2005 evaluation that has already been installed and setup on a server. I believe it originally had a 180 day eval. There have been numerous databases and users added as well as maintenance plan created...
The eval was put on the machine as an interim solution while waiting for paper work and order processiing things to happen. All the paperwork and ordering... have been completed and I now have the real SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition license key ....
I am very new to SQL Server and need to determine ...
1. Can I update the eval copy to become permanently licensed?
2. Would I want to upgrade the eval to permanent? Will I lose any capabilities by keeping the current eval setup?
If it is reasonable to keep the eval setup
3. How do I go about entering the license key to make it permanent?
If it is necessary to install the new Standard Edition...
4. How do I install it while maintaining the already defined databases, data, users, maintenance plan...
Thanks in advance for any and all help.

I am attempting to use the copy wizard to copy databases from SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server 2008 R2 w/ FP1.
The copy fails with a login failure to SQL Server 2005. I have a user id & password under Windows for both servers. I have a user id and password under SQL security with the called for admin security rights.
The 2005 server has two instances, 20 databases, two dozen maintenance plans, and over a hundred users. I really would like to use the utility so I don't have to recreate everything manually.
