I have come to know that the upcoming OS releases VISTA, and Longhorn are no more going to (Courtesy: Microsoft Directions) support the MSDE version of the SQL. So, all the applications that are to be ported on to VISTA and are dependent on MSDE engine would first have the MSDE content be shifted to other compatible databases such as SQL Express, SQL Server (2k, 2k5).
If this is true, i'm wondering how Microsoft WSS release is going to be positioned from the Vista onwards as the typical install of WSS installs MSDE instance on the machine and add the configuration content on MSDE. That said, do we have to manually move our configuration databases to other compatible ones and let go with the functionality or if Microsoft has any plans of releasing any such tool that does this process automatically.
I am in the process of preforming backwards compatibility testing inside our software with our sql statements. In the past we have run into problems where we write our SQL code in 2005 and SQL 2k cannot handle that code. (ie: nested sub selects within the select statement) I want to maximize effiency and install MSDE 2k on my Vista test machine but i have heard rumors that this could be potentially bad. Also if anyone has done this can you explain how to set the instance name if you already have sql 2005 installed? I would assume this would be done in the setup.ini in the MSDE folder before launch. If this cannot be done i can certainly put a XP test machine online for me to dial into and install MSDE 2k as well but it would have an existing 2005 session on it and i would need to find out how to name the instance before msde installed.
Installation of MSDE 2000 fails on 64-bit Windows Vista (Build 5308).
The error message is "Setup failed to configure the server.Please refer the error logs for more information". No error log can be found on the machine at the time of installation. Please let me know if anyone else has encountered this problem?
Is it possible to install MSDE 2000 on 64-bit Windows Vista(Build 5308)?
I want to view the sample databases within Access 2003. When I try to view them an error message appears saying I need MSDE 2000 but this will not run on Windows Vista which is my operating system. What do I need to view the sample database as well as develop applications within Access using SQL server?
I'm not sure if it's the setup I did wrong, but I can't seem to get my text datatype in my database to store more than 900 characters. I'm trying to setup a news database for my website, which will populate the information into a datagrid. To test, I manually added a news item in the database through the visual studio 2003 gui. I immediately noticed a problem as the I was getting an error after a long news item saying:
"The value you entered is not consistent with the data type or length of the column, or over grid buffer limit."
I couldn't find anthing to set the buffer limit and the datatype is "text" filled with simple text in the column. As a further test, I simply entered 12334567890123... up to 900 characters and still recevied the error.
I would appreciate someone leading me in the right direction on this one.
I am trying to change the computer name of a machine running MSDE but I get an error when SQL Server starts. With regular SQL when I change the name of a computer I re-run setup and setup fixes this problem. MSDE can only be installed from unattended mode so I can’t rerun setup and fix the problem.
My question is "How do I change the name of a computer running MSDE with out reinstalling MSDE"
We currently have the problem, that all our machines are produced with the same name and afterwards the name is changed. So we have the problem that the checksum key for the MSDE isn't valid anymore. As MSDE can only be installed from unattended mode so I can’t rerun setup and fix the problem. Does anyone know a solution for this problem ?? A program recalculating the cheksum ??
I'm not sure if this is the correct forum for this this question but I'll give it a shot.
The only db development that I have ever done is in MS Access. I have a project at work that is being accomplished in VB and I need a db engine to use as the back end. Visual studio came with a copy of MSDE. Is this tool worth using or should I invest in mySQL? Are there any advantages to using MSDE over mySQL?
I have purchased a seperate computer to "learn and play" which has Vista OS on it. What is the best/or most practical way to setup a sql db on this computer for me to play with and learn sql? I realize some of you think this may be simple but I don't have the opportunity to "dig" in the sandbox at work so I have to do this on my own. Thanks for your help.
I am trying to develop using SQL Server Compact Edition on Vista 64-bit and when I try to load the .DLL files for x86 I get 'BadImageFormatException'. Looking at the documentation, I do not see where SQL Server Compact Edition supports Vista 64-bit, is this true? If it is true, when will it support 64-bit?
I'm having problems getting SQL Express running with Vista. It says remote connection may not be enabled when launching a program in the IDE. The application interfaces with a SQL database that was previously working in XP.
Hello, I have installed Vista Windows recently in my computer. And when using an application that connects a SQL Server2000 who is in the same dominion, gives the following error me:
I have Vista and Office 2007 installed. It comes with the SQL Configuration tool. I was told by someone at Microsoft that I can't install SQL 2005 server on Vista. I have an application called Goldmine that I want to run under Vista, using SQL.
Should I install SQL 2005 express? Can that work under Vista?
Can I use what comes with office 2007? What else will I need to download? Management Studio?
I just added all users as Db_owner :) Now I am gettimg this error:
The EXECUTE permission was denied on the object 'GetCountryByISO', database 'zikbay', schema 'dbo'. Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: The EXECUTE permission was denied on the object 'GetCountryByISO', database 'zikbay', schema 'dbo'.
I'm trying to use Express to query the Vista Search engine using a linked server as follows:-
sp_addlinkedserver @server = 'myLinkedSvr', @provider = 'Search.CollatorDSO.1', @datasrc = 'SYSTEMINDEX', @srvproduct = '', @provstr='Application=Windows' go SELECT FileName FROM OPENQUERY("myLinkedSvr", 'SELECT Filename FROM SYSTEMINDEX') go
but this returns
Server: Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 The OLE DB provider "Search.CollatorDSO.1" for linked server "myLinkedSvr" reported an error. Command was not prepared. Server: Msg 7350, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Cannot get the column information from OLE DB provider "Search.CollatorDSO.1" for linked server "myLinkedSvr". OLE DB provider "Search.CollatorDSO.1" for linked server "myLinkedSvr" returned message "Command was not prepared.".
It's obviously "almost" working because it complains if I query a column that does not exist.
A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the pre-login handshake. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 0 - No process is on the other end of the pipe.) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 233)

I am having a vb6 application with sql server 2005 database. It works fine on windows xp. But when i install the application on windows vista I am getting Adodc error "login failed for user sa". Still the forms are populated with data from the database. But the event handlers dosent seem to work after i get this error. Does someone know what caused that adodc error. I have disabled User account control for the vista installation.
I recently got me a new laptop with Vista preinstalled. All good and well, but when I try to install a program vital for my profession, I get an error (OS not supported for this program). In the install I can configure what components to install, one of them is MSDN 2000. My question is, will SQL Server Express take over what MSDN can't on Vista (and thus running the program needing the MSDN 2000), or will windows XP be the new OS on my brand new laptop in the future. Love Vista, hate the compatibility.
We€™re calling ADOX::Table::Keys::Append to make a primary key for a table using the SQLOLEDB provider. We€™re passing an ADOX::Key with Name set to a custom name, Type set to ADOX::adKeyPrimary, and a single column added. For the Append call, the 2nd parameter is ADOX::adKeyPrimary, the third is a vtMissing (VT_ERROR with DISP_E_PARAMNOTFOUND), the last two are empty BSTR€™s. On XP, this works well (msadox.dll file version 2.81.1117.0). On Vista, this fails with an invalid parameter error (msadox.dll version 6.0.6000.16386). Has the interface changed in some way, is this functionality not supported, or is it broken?
First of all, I am a self taught programmer, and a Sql Neophyte, and know just enough to get confused (or in trouble). I have a TabletPC app that uses SqlExpress, installing as 'Click Once'. Works great on XP, but my app comes to a screeching halt on Vista, because of the permissions/contact network administrator issue. I read Mike's post (dated a year ago, Oct 06) about using SSMSE to create a new Login with sysadmin rights for the current user. Long story short, completed it successfully, but it didn't work.
I have been browsing posts here on the subject, but I am confused. Does my Vista user need to install SP2? Will that fix the problem? I am sorry, but some of the posts on this subject are over my head.
Could I prevail on one of the moderators to point me in the right direction, or to explain in v-e-r-y b-a-s-i-c terms what I need to do to help my Vista users access my SqlExpress DB?
Has anyone managed to get SQL server 2005 standard edition working on Vista?
If I install from CD I get an error message
Error Message:
sql server setup could not connect to the database service for server confiurgration.The error was[Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Shared Memory Provider:No process is on the other end of pipe.
I have then tried installing SP1 (which i understand is meant to fix some of the vista issues), but then when I then try to re-install from the CD it says the version on my PC is more up-to-date and doesnt install.
All I have in Programs - SQL server 2005 - Are the Configuration tools, not the Management studio etc.
I had sql express and microsoft express accounting working fine on xp. When I updated to vista and reinstalled sqlexpress with sp1 and management express sp1, I can not get the server to register. Any command I click gives error message "this type of initializer <module> threw and exception". Also when I tried to install accounting from office 2007 cd, will not install giving same message. Ihave uninstalled and reinstalled sql express w sp1 several times with no success. I can find no reference to this error message anywhere. Anybody got an idea where I can do to get this to work properly? Thanks in advance.

Are there any plans to support SQL Mobile running on Windows Vista? I have an application that runs SQL Mobile on Tablet PC's. I would like to support Vista the same way.
Hi, I have a serious issue installing sql server express (advanced edition) on Windows Vista Home Premium. I'm doing the install with elevated priviledges but setup of the sql server always fails at the same point with the following error:

I always select add current user to the sql server administrators group. Any help on this issue is appreciated. Below follows the setup summary log:

So I installed a second instance of Report Server since the default instance couldn't find any default directories and I got this error message with started my saga Friday. I actually chose to follow MS's advise and do solution 1). That is when Report Server first lost track of it's directories and caused me to reinstall everything.
Does anyone know what this means? Server Error in Application "Default Web Site/ReportServer$Two"
HTTP Error 500.0 - Internal Server Error
Description: This application is running in an application pool that uses the Integrated .NET mode. This is the preferred mode for running ASP.NET applications on the current and future version of IIS.
In this mode, the application should not specify ASP.NET handler mappings in the <system.web>/<httpHandlers> configuration section. Instead, it should use the <system.webServer>/<handlers> configuration section to configure ASP.NET handler mappings. You have the following options: 1) Migrate the application to work with the Integrated .NET mode (PREFERRED).You can migrate the application configuration, including the contents of the <httpHandlers> configuration section, by using the following from a command line window (the window must be running as Administrator):

Alternatively, you can use any other application pool on your system that is running in the Classic .NET mode. You can also use the IIS Administration tool to move this application to another application pool.
It is preferred that you migrate this application by using option 1 to take advantage of the benefits provided by the Integrated .NET mode.
IIS received the request; however, an internal error occurred during the processing of the request. The root cause of this error depends on which module handles the request and what was happening in the worker process when this error occurred. IIS was not able to access the web.config file for the Web site or application. This can occur if the NTFS permissions are set incorrectly. IIS was not able to process configuration for the Web site or application. The authenticated user does not have permission to use this DLL. The request is mapped to a managed handler but the .NET Extensibility Feature is not installed.
What you can try:
Ensure that the NTFS permissions for the web.config file are correct and allow access to the Web server's machine account. Check the event logs to see if any additional information was logged. Verify the permissions for the DLL. Install the .NET Extensibility feature if the request is mapped to a managed handler. Create a tracing rule to track failed requests for this HTTP status code. For more information about creating a tracing rule for failed requests, click here.
More Information... This error means that there was a problem while processing the request. The request was received by the Web server, but during processing a fatal error occurred, causing the 500 error.

Ok ive tried looking everywhere for a solution but i just cant find one... please help me
I need to install SQL Server 2005 (for reporting services mainly) on Vista, but i have issues.
I have installed IIS and its checked in the pre-installation checklist, and the only thing with an exclamation point is the OS which is to be expected.
The issue im having is that when i get to the screen to select the features/components i want to install, they are all disabled apart from "Workstation components, Books online etc..."
Where am i going wrong with this.. I know i need the services pack to install reporting services, but i cant install anything at this point.
A walkthrough or something would really help...
P.S Im running on Vista Ultimate and trying to install SQL Server 2005 Enterprise.
I just installed a brand new Business Vista and moved my old databases from WinXP to this partition. Everything seemed to be OK for a couple of days but now I am getting some errors I cannot resolve. There is no online help for this topic.
Just a bit of background. I have to establish connections between my Sql Server databases and an MS Visual Management Studio 2005. I think the trouble began after I started doing connections this morning.
Before that did established connections between the two successfully but for various reasons I had to delete them, download the folder with databases anew and start from scratch. I do not quite remember what the trouble was but it was serious. I could not really use the connections in the VS.
When I began setting up connections today the Vista complained that I did not have permissions to access those files. OK, I went to the database folder and individually gave permissions to two groups I previously set up: Debugger & Microsoft Visual Studio. They both have the same users: me and administrator who is myself.
After that act I tried to open connections again (in VS). I got an error that user instances were disabled. It said: use sp_configure to enable user instances.
I went to Sql Server and tried to do just that. Before I could execute queries. Now I am getting errors even when I try to open a new query.

OK, this thing appeared to have been resolved just a minute ago but I still decided to keep it here perhaps someone will comment on it because the way I resolved it was a total lack of understanding how I did it. Just clicked here and there and that was it.
Now need to resolve the user instances issue. I used sp_configure stored procedure in a query and got the result that the maximum number of user instances is 1. I do not know how I can change this parameter. I tried to use sp_configure with parameters with no good result.
If anyone know how to do it, please help.
Thanks.
P.S. I am sorry, that error has not been resolved. I keep getting it.
I created a database(about 800MB) on XP, I can open it on XP and WM5 without problem . But when I copy this file to Vista machine, I cannot open the file by my program. If I use SQL Server Management Studio to open it, it spends about 3 minutes+ to open it and the file increases about 150+ MB. Then I copy this file back to XP machine and try to open it, program takes long time to open it, just like it rewrites whole database. Is the database file not compatible between xp/vista? How can I create a file used on XP/Vista/WM5?
When I installed VS2005, a copy of SQLEXPRESS was also installed. It appears that it was installed using WIndows Authentication. It doesn't show up in Programs and Features or the VS2005 Setup so I can't remove it and install it using a userid and password. Is there a default userID and password that it was installed with?
