I have been running Windows 2003 64bit and SQL2000 SP4 for over 2 months with out any issues.
Sadly we had a server crash "NTldr missing or corrupted"
now when the one engineer looked at it he suggested to reload the server with Windows 2003 32 bit version as there were known compatibility problems between 2003 64bit and SQL 2000 32bit but that you can install SQL 2000 32bit onto a Windows 2003 64 bit server.
Now i dont really believe this statement nor can i find any documentation supporting this. I believe this server might have crashed due to a new patch that was released the last 2 or 3 week either on Windows or SQL. Does anyone know where i can verify what patches was released?
Maybe someone else can share their thoughts with me.
Can SQL 2000 32 bit run on a Windows 2003 64-bit Intel OS installation? What about the SQL 2000 64 bit version? Is the Enterprise Edition required for this?
Will it be possible to do an in-place upgrade from SQL 2000 Server Enterprise SP4 32 bit running on top of 64 bit Windows 2003 Enterprise , clustered, to SQL 2005 Enterprise 64 bit? The 32 bit SQL 2000 to 64 bit SQL 2005 in place upgrade seems questionable to me... Anybody tried anything like this?
We've got a Windows 2003 (64 bit edition) box to use as our Database server.
I installed SQL Server 2005 (Standard Edition) on the machine, but I have a feeling it has installed the 32 bit version and not the 64 bit version.
The reason I think this is that the MSSQL directory is under the 32 bit program files directory and not the 64 bit directory, and also when I look at the service properties it says it's running from WOW6432 registry entry.
Is there a separate disc for the 64bit version? Does the installer automatically work out which version to install or is there some sort of switch I have to do to tell it to install the 64 bit version.
I have installed windows 2003 R2 64bit on one of the system, but my devlopment team pointed out that there is no odbc driver available.
I check it for odbc driver on OS cd but i do not found any relevant files/packages, can any one tell me from where I can download the ODBC driver for windows 2003 64bit OS.
I've been having no luck trying to install SQL 2k 32bit on Windows 2003 64bit x86 SP1 - I've found several articles regarding needing to put SP4 on the 64bit OS, but my problem is the SQL 2k 32bit ",,x86setupsetupsql" won't run.
I consistantly receive a "...(localuserdir)Local.ins. Unable to load installaion instructions. Error 703."
And of course, the SP4 setup won't run because there is not an existing SQL Service to upgrade.
We are having major performance issues with Microsoft SQL 2005 64bit Standard Editions performance on Windows Server 2003. We have an SSIS package running very slowly (and other sql tasks) on our two quad core cpu system with 8gb of ram and running a 500gb mirrored SCSI (Raid 1) drive system. The database running on the server is about 11gb.
Does anybody have any suggestion we could try to increase the performance of the server? I've run a defrag several times which helps a little but I was hoping I could do something else to increase the performance.
Where can I further educate myself on this subject?
Right off from the start I would assume that installing SQL Server 2000 or 2005 on Windows Server 2003 that is set up as a web server hosting a website would be against "best practices." Is my assumption right?
Common sense tells me to not to host a website on a pc that is also hosting my database.
Hi all,I have a Windows 2003 server, which is also a terminal server forapplication, with sql 2000 installed. My company has developed anapplication that uses SQL 2000 as its database. The application is aclient/server one. In each client computer there's a link to theapplication on the server. There is no problem with Windows 98,Windows 2000 pro, Windows xp pro clients, but the windows 95 onescannot log in to the database. The log of the application shows thefollowing error:connection error -2147467259. Cannot open database requested in login'database name'. Login fails.Till a week ago the application was running on a Windows 2000 serverwith SQL 2000 install and the W95 clients had no problem connecting tothe database, so my guess is the error has something to do withWindows 2003 server, but what'causing the error?I tried to install a newer version of MDAC (MDAC 2.5, the last versionof MDAC you can install on W95)but with no success. By the way W95clients have no problem accessing shared folder on the Windows 2003server.Any idea?ThanksMarino
When windows 2003 server is not log on to the domain, SQL worksfine.(workgroup) Everyone can connect to SQL. When everyone is on thedomain, nothing can connect remotely to SQL.
I'm working on deploying an ASP.NET 2.0 app onto a Windows 2003 server and I'm having trouble with SQL 2000 authentication. When I run my app from my development box running IIS 5.1 I have no problems. In order to get it to work on my this machine, I had set the account for anonymous access to run under an ASPNETDOMAIN account and configured my SQL database to allow this account.On the Windows 2003 box with IIS 6.0, I've done the same thing with anonymous access for the web app, and also created an application pool that the app runs under and have set the application pool to run under the same account. It appears the app is looking for a local SQL 2005 instance (which doesn't exist). Why would it do this and what do I need to change for this to work?Error:An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.

I installed MS SQL 2000 on a Windows 2003 server cluster (no servicepacks). Both nodes are online and both domain controllers are online.I tried to install SP3 and got the following error:--------------Logon Account could not be validated.No authority could be contacted for authentication.---------------I installed SQL SP 2 and did not get the error but I do get it everytime I try to install SP3.Does anybody have an idea that might help resolve the problem.
I€™m having a few issues with a server that keeps grinding to a halt and having frequent system issues requiring a reboor. It is Sql 2000 32 bit enterprise edition running 64 bit 2003 server. Im not sure of the impact of having the AWE switch set for this server because even though it has 8Gb of RAM it is only using 262Mb and is used extensively. It is set to dynamically configure sql server memory with a minuimum memory of 3075 and maximum of 6144
Is it worth me removing the AWE option or are there any more tweaks I can make to make this system run more effectively?
Hi !when installing sqlserver 2000 on a Windows 2003 server it explicitlytells "server not compatible with Windows 2003" during install, but itcan carry on.After we applied serfice pack 3a then the db server seems to runnormally, but does it risk to behave randomly afterwards ???Is sqlserver 2000 standard edition compatible with Windows 2003 server?Or does it exist a specific sqlserver edition for Win2003 ?thanks !Patrice
We got SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition SP3 running on Windows 2003 server.
Now, we would like to apply windows 2003 SP1 to the Operating System.
We are concerned that whether windows 2003 SP1 is compatible with SQL server 2000 (SP3)?
I was looking at the application comaptibility chart for Windows 2003 SP1.Among them SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition Service Pack 3a was listed but not the Standard Edition.
My Question - Is windows 2003 server SP1 is compatible with SQL Server 2000 (SP3)?
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?
After differential restore I start Remedy service. It starts in few seconds.
After full restore the same service takes 15 minutes to start. Bothe the things are done through SQL service agent. Even manual restaring the service also takes 15 minutes after full restore. WHy is it happening this way?
I am looking for some recommendations for memory sizing and options for a SQL 2000 Cluster. This is a two node cluster built on Windows 2003 ENT SP1 (x86). Both the nodes have the following hardware:
- 4 x Dual Core AMD Processors - 16 GB Memory - EMC Shared Disk
We are running six SQL 2000 instances and don't expect each of these instances to use more than 1.7 GB of memory. All these instances are going to support BizTalk 2004 Databases. I already have /PAE enabled on the nodes. I am looking for the following answers:
- Do I need to enable AWE on all the instances even if the instances ? Currently, we don't have that enabled and we have seen some issues regarding excessive paging even when there is physical memory available. The DBAs think that we don't need to enable AWE. I am bit confused on this one.
- We normally run 3 instances on each node and would like size the cluster in such a way that it can take six instances in case of a node failure
I have a Windows 2003 Enterprise x64 edition cluster setup and functioning normally. Now, I am trying to get SQL Server 2000 installed as a failover cluster but am having some difficulty. When installing, I get the message '[sqsrvres] ODBC sqldriverconnect failed' in the event log. The message happens when the installer is trying to bring the SQL Server Service resource online.
I am able to ping the name of the instance successfully. I am able to manually start the 'MSSQL$InstanceName' service. I have turned off the firewall on both machines, but this did not help. I have the DTC Service setup as a resource in the same cluster group.
I also read http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;815431 which seemed promising, but did not reolve the problem.
I have a mobile device application using mobile sql 2005 replicating with sql 2000 in a x86 environment. This works fine!
I'm having issues getting this to work under Windows Server 2003 X64.
I've got all the components installed under the X64 environment including CLR 2.0 X64 and the mobile sql tools. the but when I run the Configure Web Synchronization Wizard I get the following error. SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition Server Tools were not found on the IIS server. Run the SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition Server Tools installer....
My question is: Were do I get the X64 version of these tools?
sqlce30setupen.msi sql2Ken@P4.msi
The SQL environment is X86 as follows: SQL2000 SP4

Ive read on some pages that it is in fact possible to install and run SQL Server 2000 on Vista. In my university, SQL Server 2000 is still used to teach us about databases and how to administrate them. The computers run Windows 2000 Professional. I need to be able to use 2000 so I can not only have compatibility but also know the steps and all possible conditions and solutions to problems. Would installing and running SQL Server 2000 on Vista be possible or am I better off using 2005? Is there much difference between these 2 versions?
We are running SQL 7 on a Windows NT Server. If you copy a 25Mb filefrom this machine to a W2K server, the file copy takes over 5 minuteson a 100Mpbs switched network.Copying the same file to another NT server takes only seconds, andcopying the same file to the W2K server from the 2nd NT server, (whichis not running SQL) takes only seconds also.Has anyone any ideas as to why file copying between this machine and aW2K one will take so long. It is repliacted on 5 further w2K machines.
Hi all,I just asked some people to help me out and phone microsoft with thefollowing information, kindly they refused unless we setup a supportcontract with them first, for pre-sales information. (That really doesnot sound like good business sense to me - anyway here is our problem,if anyone could help thanks)."To tell and ask microsoft:We will be setting up a microsoft sql server 2000 instance running on awindows 2003 server.1) We need to check this can run alongside a microsoft 2003 sql server(either workgroup or standard edition), on the same machine. Are thereany .dll clashes if we do this? If there are can we run SQL Server2000, in a virtual machine running windows 2000 professional. (I have alicenced copy we can use for this).2) If we run one instance of 2000, and one of 2003 of the sql servers,can one use the processor licence model, and one use the CAL licencemodel."Thanks for any help, and any idea why they actually force you to usenews groups for pre-sales information?David
My uncle runs a small networking company and has extra licenses for Windows 2003 Server as well as SQL Server 2000. Since I just graduated from college and have started working as a database programmer (for a different company) I'd like to setup a small server at home to learn more about SQL (as well as networking, but SQL is my primary concern). I know I can setup SQL Server 2000 on my main PC, but I'd still like to set everything up in a server environment.
So, what I'm wondering is if any books (or web sites?) exist that walk you through setting up Windows 2003 Server and SQL Server 2000. I've actually set these up before (it's not very complicated) but I'm not sure if I did it the "correct" way.
Ideally if any books exist on O'Reilly's Safari Bookshelf that would be even better.
Windows 2003 backup utility uses the shadow copy option that allows it to copy open files. Therefore, can I use this utility to backup the .mdf and .ldf files for my SQL 2000 database? I can then attach the .mdf files if I need to restore the database to another server. Can anyone tell me if this is safe? I've tried it and it worked but I'm worried there maybe some lurking danger in using this approach.
We got SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition SP3 running on Windows 2003 Standard Edition server.
Now, we would like to apply windows 2003 SP2 to the Operating System.
We are concerned that whether windows 2003 SP2 is compatible with SQL server 2000 (SP3)?
I was looking at the application compatibility chart for Windows 2003 SP2.Among them Microsoft SQL Server Standard (2000) was listed but with no Service pack details. And also does Standard means standard edition there?
My Question - Is windows 2003 server SP2 compatible with SQL Server 2000 (SP3) Standard Edition? And what if I plan to apply SP4 to Sql Server ?
