When i downloaded SQL Express Edition 2005 (35mb version) and try to install it it tells me this:
" Your operating system does not meet Service Pack level requirments for this SQL Server realease. Install the Service Pack from the Microsoft Download Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?Linkid=50380, and then run SQL Server Setup again. For system requirments, see Hardware and Software Requirements, in the readme or in SQL Server Books Online."
I go to the link and it just redirects me to microsofts homepage giving me a list of popular downloads and a list of recommended downloads but none seem to be service packs what do i do?

Can someone tell me where to download the SQL 2005 Reporting Service? I looked all over the MSDN subscriber download site and could not find it.
And I have the SQL 2005 developer edition DVD, could not find the reporting service in there either. Is the SQL 2005 Reporting Service now available only in the SQL 2005 enterprise DVD or something?
I sucessfully installed SQL Server 2005 express edition, the set up indiactes I need IIS but on installing the IIS 6.0, I cannot get it to start and the re-install of the SQL Server 2005 express edition still does not recognise the install. Where do I start.
Does Anyone know if there is a way to verify the SQL Service Pack Version on 7.0 on Windows 2000 Advanced server?
I'm getting this results for select @@version
Microsoft SQL Server 7.00 - 7.00.623 (Intel X86) Nov 27 1998 22:20:07 Copyright (c) 1988-1998 Microsoft Corporation Enterprise Edition on Windows NT 5.0 (Build 2195: Service Pack 1)
I installed Service Pack 5 on SQL 7.0 successfully, but when I go back to run @@version, it gives me Service Pack 2 which is the old pack. Does anyone know why and had an experience with this?? Thanks wonderful people!!!
I have a cluster server, with SP3 coming out I wanted to upgrade the SP2 I have right now, when I start SP3 installation it starts and quickly exits from the program. DO I need to uncluster the server before applying SP3? or there is a way arround it?
has anyone had this experience before after we installed service pack 2 our jobs are taking about 10hrs, some run it says it's succesfull but it didn't update the tables.
I have installed service pack-1 on SQL SERVER 7.0 Standard Edition. After the pack is installed @@version is still showing 7.00.623 instead of 7.00.699 HELP !!!
Does anyone else have any concern about this Watson technology creeping in to SQL Server in SP3? I don't like it in Explorer and I'm sure not going to like it in SQL Server!
BTW, Forrest article about the new security patches at http://www.databasejournal.com/news/article.php/1475241 is in error, I think, when it refers to SP4.
Is the sql server 2000 service pack 3 worth applying to production database server or should I still wait. i do have sql 2000 service pack 2 on the server ?
I am binding bunch of SQL object change t/sql code into one service pack and then distribute to around 1500 databases.
gradually, I feel I need to put the table/proc/trigger/field/datatype/data size.... all the changes into a kind of database so that could let me or other developers quickly pull out all the change info against a particular object, say table customer. It may have changed 15 times already, from enlarge customerName data size from 30 to 50, add a unique constraint to force the customerName uniquenss, add an index on companyPhone field, modify a delete trigger when an customer becomes inactive to append to a historyCustomer table before delete it....
Of course, the db should also include servicePack release date, each object release reason, approved by.....
At first, it sounds simple and not a big deal, but when I draw something and found the relationship between table--field--datatype--size--constraint is not so simple. Is there something even 'raw' available there already, so I might take a short cut and move on?
Is there a way to check what version of SQL 6.5 is currently in use? I installed SP5 but want to verify whether it is recognized as the current version. Also, what is the release # for SP5?
I just installed service pack 5.0a on a server.While I was installing it, when it came to the screen "updating system catalogs" it froze up and I had to reboot the machine.I could not get past this screen on successive attempts. When I do Select @@version it gives me the correct version though.
is there a way to uninstall the sql service pack,or is there another way of finding out whether the service pack was correctly installed.
Hi All, Feeling a little dense but I don't seem to be able to find out which sp's have been installed for SQL Server. Seems like it should show up under help. Can anyone tell me how to find out? Thanks
Has anyone heard any news about when Microsoft will release Service Pack 5 for MS SQL 6.5? I had originally heard this would be towards the end of summer.... but I think that time has passed.
Has it already been released and I am unaware? I`ve checked the Microsoft site and haven`t seen it.
