I have installed SSs2005 - Standard Edition.
During this installation, also Visual Studio is installed.
I do not understand what i can do with this Studio version.
I mean, i understand that with SS2005 there is a connectivity between sql server and visual studio. For example i could create store procedures with Visual Studio. (clr applications).
But when i start the Viual Studio screen i can only select Business Inteligence Projects.
What do i need, when i want to create functions, stored procedures and what do i need to develop SMO applications?
I'm currently using the evaluation version of SS2005 and would like to use PerformancePoint with Analysis Services. PerformancePoint requires the cumulative update package 3 for SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2, or Build 3186, according to the documentation. The version for SS2005 is the following:
Can anyone tell me what is the difference between Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services Designer Version 9.00.1399.00
and Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services Designer Version 9.00.2047.00
I have some problems with parameter passing in version 1399 but it seems to work on version 2047. I wnat to know if the reason for that is the VS version.
I've installed all the options from the sQL server CD but can't find how to install the Management Studio. I'm missing something obvious, but beat's me where it is.
I have gone to the page http://www.microsoft.com/express/sql/download/default.aspx to download the 64 bit version of the Management Studio for Vista 64 bit... and its in Chinese.
This is the double astrix version at the very bottom of the page specifically for Vista 64...
Is this something I am doing or is this download link actually to a Chinese Download??
Can someone point me to a download link that is English...
This may be a dumb question but I have searched and haven't found an answer to it here yet.
We are planing to get SQL Server 2005 for a specific purpose.We have several existing stand alone SQL Server 2000 database servers already. I have Enterprise Manager (2000) client installed on my PC. I recently installed SQL Server Express (2005) on my PC to get to know about new features.
I have run into problems (BCP specifically) with having two versions of C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server80... and C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90... on my PC.
Is there any point before or after we purchase Standard version of SQL Server 2005 when I can do away with C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server80... and/or uninstall Enterprise manager?
In other words can I manage SQL Server 2000 databases using only Management Studio(SQL Server 2005 client)? If not, how do I manage the two different versions of the client software on a single PC.
i don't know if it was mentioned before, but i solved the issue that Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express won't show the option to create/modify a sql compact database by installing not this Version:
Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express Date: 19.04.2006 http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=c243a5ae-4bd1-4e3d-94b8-5a0f62bf7796&DisplayLang=en
but this one:
SQL Server Management Studio Express Service Pack 2 €“ CTP-Version Date: 19.12.2006 http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=ccbda432-8ecf-4c82-bdef-b575eaf07f55&DisplayLang=en
hope this helps.

P.S. i'm curious if anybody else had the same issue, caused of using the wrong Version of SSMSe?
I have a windows 2003 server which has SQL 2005 Express with advanced services installed on it. Then a few weeks back the company purchased SQL server Standard Edition which comes with SQL Server Management Studio (which has more features than SQL Server Management Studio Express currently installed on the server where sql express is running)I have been trying to schedule a maintanance plan on the SQLExpress Instance database from the SQL Server Management Studio that came with the standard version of sql but i have not been able to have all SQL Server Management Studio functionality available when connected to the SQLExpress instance. So is there a way i can connect to the Express Instance from management studio(that comes with the standard edition of sql) and have all its functions available when working with a SQL express database. Or i must upgrade the express database?
I installed Visual Studio 2005 Professional then after that was installed and running, I tried to install the the SQL Server 2005 Developer's Edition which installed but I do not get the SQL Server 2005 Studio Manager. I have remove and reinstalled but it never gets installed. Any ideas?
I have SS 2005 express* working(yrs) on a XP home ver. laptop. I got a new Acer w/ Vista hm/premium and I registered/can't get SS 2005 express* to download from MSDN.
Norton's gives a file block, I click the 'download file' and nothing happens. No dialog, hd drv activity, nothing - just 'Done' on IE7 status. I have Visual Web Developer beta v2 2008** running on the Acer and don't want to trash the install.
.NET fwrk v2.0 is listed required for SS2005, but .NET fwrk v3.5 says it includes v2.0 + WCF,...(right? - install both?)
I need a SS for VWD 2008. I've ask/tried several times. What am I doing wrong?
I have MS SQL Server 2005 Developer Ed. and try to make a database diagram of remote MS SQL Server2000 database in MS SQL Server Management Studio. I receive an error "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."
Every time a transaction log is dumped we see the following message in the log file:
BackupDiskFile:penMedia: Backup device '\s-sqlbkups-1g$myserverlogmy_databasemydatabase_backup_200711071430.trn' failed to open. Operating system error 2(The system cannot find the file specified.).
I have been trying to find a T-SQL function that would calculates a Median statistical value for me. I am runnnig on SS 2005? Any examples of using this function would be greatly appreciated.
I'm trying to migrate/upgrade some databases from 2000 to 2005 and am having a problem. Apparently, the Upgrade Advisor can't analyze a SS2000 database if it is in a named instance. (see below)
This problem occurs because the SQL Server 2005 Upgrade Advisor cannot connect to the named instance of SQL Server 2000.
The SQL Server 2005 Upgrade Advisor uses information that the SQL Server Browser service returns when the SQL Server 2005 Upgrade Advisor tries to connect to an instance of SQL Server 2000. However, the SQL Server Browser service cannot return the correct information about the connection request. Therefore, the connection fails.

Doesn't this make the UA tool useless for named instances on SS2000? Are there any plans to correct this issue? Or, is there a workaround available?
Is there any way to restore a database of higher version to lower version.
E.g. I have created a database in sql server 2012, created some tables & procedures in that.I took Full backup of that database. Can I restore it to sql 2008r2 or any lower version.
I know direct restore is not possible, I have to use either import or export option or generating script,but i want to know is there any easy step to do so.
Since some analysis services features are only available in Enterprise version , I have to upgrade my SQL 2005 server from standard edition to enterpise edition.
So I uninstall originial standard version of analysis service and install a Enterprise version. However, the analysis service is still a standard version after installation.
Is it possible to keep data engine as standard version and install a enterprise version of analysis service?
Hello,I have been searching and reading a lots of information on the microsoft website about the different version of SQL server, but still can not make my decision.In term of performance, is there a real big difference between the workgroup and the standard version? The workgroup is limited to 3 GB of RAM while the standard is unlimited, would that really change the performance if my server has 16Gb or RAM?The price difference is pretty substantial so if could only have to buy the workgroup , it would be better.One more question, regarding the type of licence, my server has 2 processors, could I avoid buying 2 licences and get the Server plus CAL instead. I am using this server to host 4 web-application running on SQL server. Each database is about 15 MB.Thanks in adavance for your advises.Arno
I am wondering if it is possible to change from SQL Server Enterprise Evaluation Version to Developer Version. The reason is because the Enterprise Evaluation version expires after 180 days. So if I create reports and cubes in Enterprise Evaluation I can import them into Developer Edition right? Should I remove the Enterprise Evaluation version after 180 days or leave it then install Developer Edition?

I have an ssis package that downloads a SQL Server 2000 database and restores it to a SQL 2005 server. Ninety-five percent of the time it runs just fine, but every so often the job fails and I get the following set of error messages in the log file. (I have had to delete some of the proprietary information for this message to satisfy my boss like putting in [Database name] in place of the actual name of the database in the error message).

I have received the error message "Package migration from version 8 to version 6 failed".I have developed a SSIS package with Visual Studio 2013 which gives me PackageFormatVersion of 8. I then deploy my package to the ssisdb catalog that is running on a SQL Server 2012, this works fine but when I try to execute the package the error arises…due to SQL Server 2012 has a PackageFormatVersion of 6 and it can’t run something that has a greater version.I haven’t seen any good solution for this but one that would work for me would be to upgrade the Integration Services Server from 2012 to 2014, leaving everything else in 2012 (database, ssms, ssas, ssrs).Would this solve the package format problem? Would I then be able to execute my packages in the ssisdb catalog?
Now, I checked and verified that my backup version of SQL Server is the same as the version installed on the computer I'm restoring too.
I have SQL Server on a production machine that I backed up and want to test a full restore on a dev machine to make sure it will work when I need it to.
Now that I've run the restore command on my tape backup and go to restart the SQL server service I receive:
Configuration block version 0 is not a valid version number. SQL Server is exiting. Restore the master database or reinstall.
I'm afraid I don't understand why this is happening. If the builds are the same, then shouldn't restoring the MASTER database have worked normally and I'd be able to restart the service now?
Hi Everyone. We have a stored proc that performs several bulk inserts. I need to find a way to allow the bulk insert to truncate data. Also, I would like to be able to send back to .NET the exact line that failed if a failure does occur.
Right now, the stored proc fails because of truncation. Could this be because there's a check for @@ERRROR <> 0 right after the bulk insert? Does anyone know if a truncation occurs, if that will "throw" an error to the catch block? This is NOT what we want. Can anyone help me to understand how to do this correctly?
I expercience some problems in sending the alert mails to the operator when an Agent Failure Alert happens.
I have setup MSSQL 2005 with merge replication and have setup mail the ss2005 way. I also can send test mails via the Database mail context menu.
I have setup a operator with a valid emailadress and enabled is checked On the notifications page 'Agent Failure Alert' is checked.
When this alert fires the number of occurences in the history of this alert is incremented (as I can see via the alertsection-Agentfailure-history) this alert is also enabled. The problem is that the operator does not get notified!
So I can send test email from the DB, have setup an Operator with emailadress, have enabled an alert and see the number of occurences of this alert increment. I don't get any alert mails. The notifications attempt in the history page of the operator does not increment. It says: [never emailed]
I'm trying to create a SQL Agent job and schedule that executes an SSIS Package, but when I try to run the job I get the following error:
Executed as user: adApp1. The package could not be loaded.
The App1 user is the Identity used in the Credential for the Proxy which has the SSIS Packages Subsystem. The package encryption is set EncryptAllWithPassword and that password is included in the Command line with the /DECRYPT option. The package is stored on the server in the SSIS Package Store and was placed there via the Import package option. Does the method matter?
One thing that I haven't been able to track down is exactly what permissions the domain account adApp1 needs on the server or in SQL Server, if any, in order to run the package. Not sure if that has any affect anyway.
I understand that only Enterprise Edition has support for Fuzzy Lookup and Fuzzy Grouping transforms, but we will likely be migrating to Standard shortly - Enterprise would be complete overkill for our organisation and needs, and is beyond our budget constraints too.
I have been using these in the CTP of Katmai, and have found them exceptionally useful for my work.
Any chance of these transforms being made available as an "add-on" for Standard (or other versions)? It does not seem that it is something inextricably tied to the different versions - just a licencing decision, right?
Or would the proposal be to go with Standard and one additional purchase of Developer Edition?
Is it possbile to migrate SS2000 DTS packages to SS2005 SSIS involving databases with compatibility mode set to 80. If yes, what are the potential issues, which may occur?
I have an SSIS package that takes data from a table in Access and puts it into a fact table in SS2005. Very little data manipulation is done. It processes approximately 1.5 million rows when it runs weekly. The process is run in an SSIS package that is called by a parent package, and all of that (including the use of the config files and accessing the parent variables) is working fine.
The issue is there is one field in the Access table that must be put into a different SS2005 fact table.
When I run the data flow task that loads the first fact table, it completes in less than two minutes. However, if I either (a) put a multicast step in the dataflow task to redirect a copy of the key data and remaining field to the second fact table, or (b) copy that step in the package to have it perform the same tasks with the different target (and using just the key and the remaining field), the execution time suddenly jumps to 30 minutes. In the case of (b), it remains true whether the copied step remains in the package or is executed in its own package, and also remains true if the package is loading against a table that starts out empty or with data already in it.
Has anyone ever bumped into a situation like this?
