Can I Use Sql Server 2005 Developer Edition With Windows Xp Home Edition SP2 For MCTS Exam 70-431 Preparation?
Dec 21, 2007
Hi
I am interested in taking MCTS exam 70-431 for sql server 2005 implementation and maintainance.
I have been reading the hardware requirements for the instalation of sql server versions and realise that enterprise and developer editions have same minimum requirements for the operation system.
I understand that the Developer Edition includes all the functionality of SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition, but it is licensed for use as a development and test system, not as a production server.
Also I undestand that the developer edition supports the Windows XP Home Edition with SP2 or later but the enterprise edition does not support this operating system. The evaluation/trial version is for the enterprise edition. Can I use the developer version of sql server 2005 for my practice exercises instead of using the trial version?
I have all hardware requirements for the trial enterprise version except that I am using Microsoft windows Xp home edition version 2002 with SP2. I am trying to see if I can use the developer version of sql server 2005 as it is cheaper for me to buy this software than buying the new operating system for my computer.
According to the microsoft book for the MCTS exam 70-431 there is a section which states that before you begin you should have Microsoft Windows Server 2003 running on your computer on an NTFS file system
(NTFS) partition. Will I still be ok to use the book and be able to do all the tests in the book if i am using the developer version of sql server 2005 with my Microsoft windows Xp home edition than using the trial version which comes with the book?
I could not install SQL Server 2005 Developer edition on my notebook with os Vista Home Premium. I know about the SP2 thing...but before coming that point, I can not either install the SQL Server 2005... When installing,when the database services point comes it gives an error about user thing...and then installation starts to rollback...
I check the IIS configuration from the net...And see that while activating IIS there is no option for Windows Auth. in Home Premium in Control Panel>Program...>Windows Programs.....etc....
SO ON VISTA HOME PREMIUM is SQL SERVER 2005 Dev. Edition can be installed or not?
Hi, I have Vista Home premium edition and trying to install SQL Server developer edition 2005 as local administrator. I have already enabled IIS 7 and have Office Ultimate 2007 installed. When I run the set up program, I get a warning titled "Program Compatibility Assistant" that my Operating system may not be compatible with the version of sql server I am installing. It says after setup is complete, I should run SP2 of SQL Server 2005 with 3 buttons as "Check for solutions online", "run this program" and "cancel"...
My question, should I select "run this program" and after the setup completes, download SP2 and apply the patch?
I read some articles in forums that sounds like lot of issues to get sql server working on vista. Can some one direct me to correct options. This is my wife's machine so I dont want to experiment too much and blow her machine away. Please help.
Hi, I am going to get a new laptop and was wondering in particular which versions of Windows Vista will run SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition. I want to be able to use all the features of SQL Server 2005, so IIS is needed for example ( I will be building end to end BI soutions using SQL Server Management Studio, SSIS, Analysis Services and Reporting Services.
I've installed Windows 2003 SP2 in a stand-alone cluster (will be adding a second node later). I'm now installing SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition 64-bit extended and would like to have the "Create a SQL Server Failover Cluster" box to not be grayed out. Even when I check the "SQL Server Database Services" box, it still has the cluster box grayed out.
As an ISV, I want to certify my product on Standard Edition. I am using Developer Edition everywhere. Is there a way I can do the certification using the Developer Edition, or do I need to obtain/purchase a copy of the Standard Edition?
We have an existing installation of SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition (64bit) that we are ready to go live with and would like to change the edition to Enterprise Edition (64bit). We have purchased all the appropriate licenses. We would like to avoid UN-installing the Developer Edition and RE-installing the Enterprise Edition. There must be some way to change a registry key, provide your serial number via a command line utility or re-run the setup with the license key provided and direct it to just change the edition from Developer to Enterprise and not change any of the other settings like service account, sa account, collation, etc. Any help is most appreciated.
I tried to download PerformancePoint Server Trial Version to ther server today and I got to the configuration point of the Analysis Services Setting, and when I clicked next to proceed with the configuration I got a popup error message: "Microsoft Analysis Server must be Evaluation, Developer or Enterprise Edition".
Now I have SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition Disc (Bought it with Visual Studio 2005) but on the server I have SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition, if I try to run the sql server developer Edition disc, I use the wizard download and it seems that the download is going through the SQL Server entire download, it's like I'm re-downloading SQL Server all over again.
Does that seem right? what is the best approach to work around this probelm?
I am new to servers and when I try to learn about them I get confused, because the information does not list a server in XP, but they keep it separate from Microsoft SQL Server, like XP has it's own server. Can someone help clarify for me what the versions of SQL servers are?
Is it possible to connect SSRS running on SQL Server 2005 enterprise edition (our production system) to a database running on SQL Server 2005 Developer's edition (our test system)
I am trying to install SQL Express on Window Home XP and SCC is returning the following error:
The SQL Server Configuration Checker cannot b execute due to WMI configuration on the machine ..... Error 2147942405 (0X80070005).
I tried running the following batch file which I believe resolved the same issue that someone else raised earlier (though I am not sure whether the OS was Home XP)
Will upgrading from XP Home to XP Professional (academic version) help me install SQL express successfully>
The Batch file I ran looks like this:
FIXWMI.CMD ------------------------
@echo on cd /d c: emp if not exist %windir%system32wbem goto TryInstall cd /d %windir%system32wbem net stop winmgmt winmgmt /kill if exist Rep_bak rd Rep_bak /s /q rename Repository Rep_bak for %%i in (*.dll) do RegSvr32 -s %%i for %%i in (*.exe) do call :FixSrv %%i for %%i in (*.mof,*.mfl) do Mofcomp %%i net start winmgmt goto End

I wish to start learning about SQL server 2005. Right now I am out of work and wish to build my database skills and get a certification on SQL server 2005. I used SQL 2000 at my last work at an entry level, so I have some experience. I want to get some books and if possible and SQL 2005 on my home computer to learn on. Would SQL server 2005 developer edition be the one I want for learning? I know some books come with a trial software but they only last 180 days, I don't want to feel pressured in trying to learn that quickely since I do have a 1 year old to take care of.I did notice that it was only $50 dollars, which is a plus since I need to watch the money. Does this editoin give me query analyzer and the SQL server enterprise manager? I do have some school background but that was back in 2003 in VB6, Oracle, Java, javascript, HTML.
I'm trying to register a developer's 2000 pc from my 2005 pc.
i'm not sure this is even something possible from Dev Edition to Dev Edition- I can register a 2000 server just fine.
I can ping him. Both our systems have remote access 'on'. His server is (local), i've tried connecting to it by just entering his machine name and by using just the ip address. The error I get is "timeout expired. The timeout elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding."
Am I just not registering this properly? I entered just the ip address in the 'server' box. I am connecting as sa with the pw he gave me. When i connect to my server, I use the ip addressinstance. However, I am not sure what to use for the instance when all I see when I look at his machine is (local).
I am having this problem since I installed the new windows Vista.
I am trying to install the SQL Server 2005 developer edition on Windows Vista, but After installation finish successfuly I open the start menu to surprise that I could not find the Shortcuts to open the SQL Server and create new database and tables etc... I opened the full path of the exe files "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90ToolsBinnVSShellCommon7IDE" but there are not any file there, even that I searched for the exe files names but they are not existed. It looks that after instalation complete that the SQL Server is not installed on Windows Vista.
So, my question is: After installing the SQL Server 2005 SP2 for windows Vista, will the problem be solved? Or there is something else to do ON WINDOWS VISTA.
Please, I need the answer for this problem, because I need to work on SQL Server 2005 very hard.
I am currently downloading the mega-sized files for SQL Server 2005 Express Edition and was wondering if I was going to be able to install it onto my workstation alongside the SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition? Was hoping someone could advise. I did browse for an answer, but have not come across it yet. I know I'll find out once my download is complete, but that could be awhile :)
I wanted to install SQL Server 2005 Express Edition, instead of installing .Net Framework 2.0, I installed .Net Framework 3.5. When I tried to install SQL Server 2005 Express Edition I received the following error:
SQL_ERROR (-1) in OdbcStatement::execute_batch sqlstate=42000, level=16, state=2, native_error=7404, msg=[Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]The server could not load DCOM. Error Code: 0x80071cec (7404) Windows Error Text: Source File Name: libodbc_statement.h Compiler Timestamp: Wed Jun 14 16:28:15 2006 Function Name: OdbcStatement::execute_batch@sysdbupg.sql@56 Source Line Number: 91
I then decided maybe I do need .net framework 2.0, but when I try to install it it says it's already included with the OS.
But the "Programs and Featuers" only list .Net Framework 1.1 and .Net Framework 1,1 Hotfix (KB92979).
I uninstalled .Net Framework 3.5 and tried to install .Net Framework 2.0 again, but it still says it's included in the OS.
After uninstalling .Net Framework 3.5, I tried to install SQL Server 2005 Express Edition, but still received the above error message.
Is .Net Framework 2.0 included with Windows Vista Home Edition?
If it is, any ideas in solving the Server 2005 Express Edition installation error?
I would like take MCTS exam in Business Intelligence(Dataware Housing).For this I want to know about the MCTS Certification Business Intelligence (SQL Server 2005 ). Any one can suggest how to prepare for this exam and what is the CODE for this Exam? And also is SQL Server 2008 has been released or not???
Please respond to this mail and thanks in advance.
because we installed the SQL Server 2005-64Bit Developer Edition on a 2003 Server R2-64Bit with 10GB RAM an 2 Xeon. Now we have huge performance problems wich should be better using the Stadard Edition...
I don't know if it is easily possible to upgrade by only inserting the DVD and start the Setup...
Everytime I open SQL Server Studio Management I recieve the below error. I've un-installed and reinstalled but it continues to come back. I cna continue on and it'll work kind of, but after a while it'll jsut crash on me normally when I'm trying to save a script or create a new DB. Sql Server 2000 is installed on the same machine so I'm wondering if I can have them both installed like this. Has any one seen this one?Bruce See the end of this message for details on invoking just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box. ************** Exception Text

Ive installed SQL server 2005 developer edition onto my pc but when I use management studio, the only server I get is SQLEXPRESS. I did install the express version just to check it out, whats happend to the developer edition ? Is this named SQLEXPRESS as well ? and has overwritten the express version ? Has anyone else experienced this ?
I am in the early stages of migrating an extensive Access 2003 application to C#/SQL Server. The client already has SQL Server 2005, whereas I am using SQL Server 2000 Developer Edition. It has worked fine for me, but I'd like to upgrade to SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition and have a couple of questions.
In Access 2000 I am always using Query Analyzer and Enterprise Manager. Are these features available in 2005 Develper Edition?
Can more than one user connect to SQL Server at a time? That is, for testing concurrency, etc, can two people connect at the same time?
Is these any restriction on connecting to SQL Srever from another computer or workstation? Again for testing, one or two other workstations would be fine.
Finally, what is the street price? I've seen this advertised for $ 47 where I would have expected far more than that.
I recently bought a Dell server with Windows 2003 enterprise edition. I wanted the X32 version and metnioned of the same to the sales people, but somehow they put the x64 edition on the server. The database I am planning to use does not work on X64 edition as of now. How do I downgrade the OS to X32 version? Do I need to send the system back to Dell? Machine not opened yet. Or is there a way I can get software CD and downgrade to X32 version?
Hi, I'm not sure if this is where I should post this, but I'm trying to find out what the limitations of SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition (DE) are. I've gone through the Microsoft SQL Server site and they have very little information about the developer edition.Is there a connection limit for DE like 2000 did?
Will SQL Server 2005 developer edition and Visual Web Developer Express work on the same machine? One reviewer of SQL Server 2005 developer edition on amazon.com stated won't work on the same machine? Is this true?
