A few months ago, I installed the ms sql server 2005, and use it to learn the book SQL Server 2005 for dummies. It worked just fine. But after i finished the book, i uninstalled the program and deleted the express database engine. Perhaps it was an incomplete installation, yesterday when i tried to reinstall the sql server 2005, i found some configuration tools still in the directory. So i used windows to remove those tools. After that, i reinstall the sql server 2005, and changed some values in the register. The reinstallation goes well. But after it was done. I started the management studio, there's no default database engine for me to connect! All I could find in Internet is how to connect to a database engine without information about how to create one. Can anyone tell me why and help me out?
I am trying to change the default trace value from 2 to 6, to incorporate rollover and server shutdown. Â I am using this code to create a new trace (with id: 2) with the value of 6 and use that to overwrite the default trace (with id: 1):
  DECLARE @new_trace_id INT;   EXECUTE master.dbo.sp_trace_create    @someinteger = @new_trace_id OUTPUT,    @someinteger = 6,    @someinteger = N'C: raceTestTrace';
Then I disable the default trace. Â I am then using this code to overwrite the default trace (with id: 1) and replace with new value default trace (with id: 2):
    -- get trace status     SELECT * FROM ::fn_trace_getinfo(NULL)     -- stop trace     EXEC sp_trace_setstatus @traceid = 1           , @status = 0      go     -- delete trace     EXEC sp_trace_setstatus @traceid = 1           , @status = 2
Then I enable the default trace. Â It works perfectly (default trace with id 1 is showing value 6) until I restart. Â Upon restart no default traces are enabled, once I run the script to enable the default trace then the values for the default trace (with id: 1) are back, and my value for rollover/server restart is back to 2.
I'm requesting of our dba that he create a database with recovery simple for my peer and I to start using. I'm asking him to give us db owner on this db so we can create schemas, tables, views, procs, do table inserts, deletes etc etc. what sql permission (if any) would allow my peer and I to do a backup once in a while to the default sql directory for backups? And for that matter a restore from there.Â
My Integrity job started failing recently with the following error. Msg 701, Level 17, State 123, Line 1 There is insufficient system memory in resource pool 'default' to run this query. Process Exit Code 1. The step failed.

I am using SQL Server Management Studio 12 to try to restore a backup to a new database. I know I have done this before, but cannot seem to make it happen now. Her is what I have.
Backup file is "C:TempInProcessInspection_DataSQL_backup_2015_02_23_000012_4551393.bak"Â and it is for sure there.Â
This came from a customer of mine.I launch SQL Server Management Studio 12 and log in as SA. I right click on Databases and chose Restore Database. I choose Device then file then Add and try to browse the the named location.Â
When I get there, regardless if I choose All files or Bak, I see no files.I tried to upload an image of the "Upload Backup File" dialog, but MSDN would let it happen. When I get to the c:temp folder, no files appear in the window.
Just heard about the coming release of SQL Server 2008. Anyone here got some ideas on what are significant new features in SQL Server 2008 Database Engine compared to SQL Server 2005 Database Engine? Would be very interesting to know that.
Hello I've just installed 'SQL server 2005' and it installed the components like .Net2.0 and visual studio 2005 . before installing them I had uninstalled sql server2000 . I ran SQL management studio and tried to connect and makin' servers it doesn't allow me to connect or making any new servers...... it gives me this error Cannot connect to local. Additional information: An error has occured while establishing a connection to the server. ...... error:53)
We are a National Level Institutional Stock Broker in India providing trading platform to our Brokers to trade on Exchange nation-wide. We are using Compaq Proliant 8500 Serires computers in clusterd mode having RAM of 1.5 GB on each machine. We are using the Computer-To-Computer-Link (CTCL) solution / application for routing orders of brokers to the Stock Exchange. This application uses the SQL server 7.0 in clustered mode as back-end database on Windows NT Ver 4.0. On daily basis around 20,000 transactions are processed in the database.
Following are the Database Details ---------------------------------- 1. Dat Size : 1890 MB 2. Log Size : 838 MB ------------------ Total Size: 2728 MB
3. File growth options: Automated file growth, By percent : 10 4. Maximum File Size : Unrestricted file growth
On April 25, 2001, we found that application was not getting initialize, we (technical team) checked all the procedures, which are getting triggered at that particular time and found all of them were ok, but application did not started.
We also suspected that one of the procedure might have been corrupted, so we re-compiled all procedures which get triggered before starting the application. After havind done so, the application was still not getting initalized / started.
We also executed following commands:
1. DBCC CHECKDB to check inconsistancy, if any but found none (log is available) 2. DUMP TRAN with no_log (To clear transation logs)
We also executed procedures one after the other sequentially, which were being executed before the application starts after binding once again.
After having done this, we also suspected that the problem might have been with "SQL Server 7.0 database engine" and therefore decided to re-start the computers, after which we found that the applicatio started without any hindrance / errors.
This has raised some issues as follows:
1. Has the database corrupted ? If yes, weather it is possible to run DBCC CHECKDB, SQL queries on a corrupted database ? 2. Was there any systems environment failure ? If so, is it possible to run DBCC CHECKDB, SQL queries on a corrupted database? 3. Is there any possiblity of Database Engine failure? What can be the consequeces on Database Engine failure ? 4. Is it possible that Database Engine Failure is the cause for our case ?
Our some of the engineers are of the opinion that the SQL server need to be shutdown and re-started periodically. 1. Will this in any way avoid such re-currance in the future? 2. If this is true, we would like to have your technical feedback as to why this is necessary?
Should you require any further clarification, I shall be glad to furnish it to you in this regard.
I request you to give your techical feed back on an urgent basis as our applications are CRITICAL and needs UTMOST CARE, hence needs consistancy of database.
I shall be glad to receive your feedback at my e-mail: gchavan@iseindia.com or (+91)(022-781 2389).
Hello, I have installed SQL Server 2005 in my PC and during the installation I have created a predefined instance (I have used Windows autentication). I could use correctly SQL Server till some days ago, when I changed the password of my PC login profile. Now, when I open SQL Server, if I click on the "Connect" button, the following error message appears (I translate it from italian version)
Unable to connect to "CARLO" Further information: An error has occurred while you were trying to establish a connection to the server. When you connect to SQL Server 2005, this error can be generated because SQL Server doesn't allow remote connections under the predefined settings. (provider: Provider Named Pipes, error: 40 - Unable to open a connection to SQL Server) (Micorsoft SQL Server, error:2)
I'm sure that the error raises because I have changed my PC access password (the program worked correctly before), but in the "Connect to Server" window the user name and the password text boxes are disabled, so I can't insert the new password... Can you suggest what have I to do?
I want to create a database on my local machine and work with it. But I am not able to see the name of my local server under "Database Engine" in the list of "Registered Servers".
Options I tried:
(1) In Registered Servers window, On Database Engine, I right clicked and in that selected "Update Local Server Registration"
(2) In Registered Servers window, On Database Engine, I right clicked and in that selected "New" -> Server Registration. In "New Server Registration" Window, in "Server Name" drop down I clicked "Browse for more" but still in "Browse for Servers" window, I am not able to see the name of my local server in "Local Servers" tag under Database Engine.
(3) If I do File -> Connect Object Explorer -> Connect to Server window in "Server name" drop down box, if I click "Browse for more", I am able to see local server name eg. "XYZ" under Analysis Services, Reporting Services, and Integration Services but not under "Database Engine"
Please help me create a new database engine in SQL Server 2005 or list my local server under "Database engine" ?
I am not able to start the sql server 2005 database engine services...
Sql server 2005 server is installed in one machine(SERVER) and we have 10 client machine connecting to the server

I have a file in Fire bird Database (30 GB with .ydb extension). Â which needs to be restored to SQL Server. I Have created a linked server and done it but it is taking very long time to update the records.
I'm using Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition and I installed it under "Local System" on Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate.
I understand that there are issues of course that occur with this, however I can't seem to understand why what I'm doing isn't working. I'm not using this on any server, just to test out ASP.NET 2.0 applications - nothing more.
I'm getting this error:

I've installed this via a mixed authentication (as suggested by www.wrox.com).
I tried enabling the TCP/IP and named pipe connections, just as previous people have done, but it hasn't worked. Nor has enabling the SQL Browser.
I am only DBA in my company and client want to know the growth rate of his SQL server DataBase which is in production. How can I get the growth rate per day?
On Saturday we moved a few databases from SQL Server 2005 to a SQL Server 2012 cluster; and as expected some jobs have been failing because of this. The Job in Question executes two stored procedures and then an SSIS package; however when I ran the Job it failed with the error
Msg 7411, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Server 'servername' is not configured for RPC
I therefore configured the Server for RPC with the following script: -
exec sp_serveroption @server='servername', @optname='rpc', @optvalue='true' GO But the job failed again. So I therefore reran the script with the reconfigure option: - exec sp_serveroption @server='OCELOT7CLUST', @optname='rpc', @optvalue='true' GO reconfigure with override go
But again the job failed. I then closed SSMS and reopened it and attempt to run the job again and once again it failed.This is not an issue with the Linked Server as the linked Server is connecting as sa.
As I know the database should be restored from backup and logs reapplied. That’s the first and generally recommended approach any time a DB is suspect, whether it’s from log or data file corruption.But if I have no backups then we follow below steps ( after Googling I found these steps on most of the websites ):
1.EXEC sp_resetstatus ‘yourDBname’; 2.ALTER DATABASE yourDBname SET EMERGENCY 3.DBCC checkdb(’yourDBname’) 4.ALTER DATABASE yourDBname SET SINGLE_USER WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE 5.DBCC CheckDB (’yourDBname’, REPAIR_ALLOW_DATA_LOSS) 6.ALTER DATABASE yourDBname SET MULTI_USER
Now my question is, 1. If after executing DBCC CHECKDB at 3rd step, it shows inconsistency.Then I will execute SET SINGLE USER WITH ROLLBACK & if after executing DBCC CHECKDB at 3rd step, no errors found. Then what will be the steps?
2. When we execute DBCC CHECKDB (' DBNAME ', REPAIR_ALLOW_DATA_LOSS) how can we recover lost data during process.As far as I know some data will loss and if it will happen then business will get suffered.
3. Why run DBCC CHECKDB() WITH REPAIR_ALLOW_DATA_LOSS if there are no consistency errors in the database?
I am using SQL Server 2012. I Want To Maintain all Type Logs In Particulars database or server. I want to track all Query Which Execute in Particulars Database. and all other activity?
In SQL Server 2000, the default database, when changed (for example, from master to db1 for user sa) would be the database that would be active when you opened a Query Analyzer query window. Now, with the Management Studio, if you log in as sa with the default database set to db1, you still get server.master as your database in the embedded query editor. Also, consistent with this behavior, if I open the Query Analyzer and log onto the new SQL Server 2005 database (not recommended, I know, but works), it does the same thing. Again, in 2000, if you changed the default database, the Query analyzer would open a window starting at server.db1, not server.master. Am I missing something in 2005 to make this same default behavior work? ALSO, when logging into the Management Studio with sa (new default DB set), the connection properties of the Studio shows the DB to be master! What gives?
Hi Guys, I installed the Sql Server 2005 Express and the Management studio Express as well. Does it come with default database so that we can practice on it....If yes, I am not seeing it...How can i find it....? OR It does not come with Default database and we have to create new one....?
We have a production 2012 R2 SQL server that is not part of a domain. I have a database called CSSDC. I need to backup this database and make the BAK file available to a user on a different SQL server. Security is a concern. In order for this user to restore the database, they will have to be in the fixed server role sysadmins. I know I am going to have to use the Move with replace for the filegroups for the restore. Once the database is restored it will have to be altered to read-only. I would also like to remove the existing security and only have this new user access the read-only database.
Is this possible to connect do the Database Engine (on sql server 2005 on XP platorm - file *.mdf (not mobile *.sdf)) from win CE 5.0?

SqlCeConnectionCE = new SqlConnection(ConnectionStringSQLServerCE);
SqlCeConnectionCE.Open();
but I catch error: catch (PlatformNotSupportedException ex) €žPlatformNotSupportedException€? I noticed that I see server because when I use: ConnectionStringSQLServerCE = "Data Source=WORK_STATION\SQLEXPRESS";

I am working with a SQL server 2005 database. I have created several new tables. In one of the tables, I need to set up a data field so that it will default to a particular value. For exampe, I need to have a particular data field default to a value of '0' How can I do this? I would prefer not to do this through Query analyzer. I have been using the interface to SQL server 2005 provided through the Visual Studio IDE. Thanks in advance, Bill
I would like to change the default location where new databases are created.
In Server Management Studio, I right clicked my instance and selected Properties. I selected the Database Settings option and am presented with an option to change the Database Default Location (the location for databases and logs can be changed here). If I change the paths for the DB's and logs, and create a new DB, the new files are saved to the new default location paths that I just entered.
My question is this:
If I change these paths, will my system databases (master, model, msdb, tempdb) still be accessible and usable by SQL server? I don't need (want) to change the location of these files, only all my other databases and logs.
