Cannot Install Northwind Database In SQL Server Express

Apr 27, 2006

Hi,

I tried to install the Northwind database into SQl Server Express via the instnwnd.sql script using the command line:

osql -E -i instnwnd.sql

after a time out though I get this message:

"[SQL Native Client]Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL
Server [2].
[SQL Native Client]Login timeout expired
[SQL Native Client]An error has occurred while establishing a connection to
the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by
the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote
connections."

I already granted access to the administrator account on my machine.

Anyone knows what I need to do more?

Thanks in advance



greetings from Belgium,

Anthony

How Can I Re-install The Northwind Database In SQL Server Management Studio Express?Use SqlDataSet && The .Fill Method Properly?

Apr 30, 2007

Hi all,

In my VB 2005 Express, I created a Windowds Form application "shcDataSet" that used 1 SqlConnection, 1 SqlDataSet and 3 SqlDataAdapters associated with the Northwind Database in my SQL Server Management Studio Express. The SqlConnection had "User Instance" in the following ConnectionString: Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename="C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataorthwnd.mdf";Integrated Security=True;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True. The 3 SqlDataAdapters were for the Northwind files "Customers", "Orders" and "Order Details" used in the SQLDataSet "AllOrders" with a AllOrders.xsd file. I ran the "shcDataSet" applicatyion and it worked fine. After the execution of "shcDataSet", I checked the Northwind database in my SQL Server Management Studio Express and clicked on "+" in front of Northwind database-I did not see any file showed up and I got the following error message: Failed to retrieve data for this request. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Express.SmoEnum) Additional information: one or more files do not match the primary file of the database. If you are attempting to attach a database, retry the operation with the correct files. If this is an existing database, the file may be corrupted and should be restored from a backup. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error:5173). If I executed the "shcDataSet" application again, I got a new error: SqlException was unhandled - Cannot open user default database. Login failed. Login failed for user 'myPC##myName' ------->daCustomers.Fill(AllOrders11, "Customers"). I have 3 questions to ask: (1) How can I re-install the Northwind database in SQL Server Management Studio Express? (2) When I use the .Fill Method, do I have to tell the SQL Server Management Studio Express to load and/or unload the Northwind files "Customers", "Orders" and "Order Details"? (3) After I executed the "shcDataSet", should I Upload the 3 Northwind files back to the SQL Server Management Studio Express? Please help and advise. Thanks, Scott Chang

Northwind Database In SQL Server Management Studio Express Is Lost Or Used/processed By VB 2005 Express:How To Locate/return It

Dec 3, 2007

Hi all,

In the last one and half years, I used the Northwind Database in SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE) to learn the programming of SqlConnections, Data sources, Database Exploere, ADO.NET 2.0, etc. via VB 2005 Express.

The Northwind Database in my SSMSE got lost very often, but I was not aware of it. How can I know where the Northwind Database is used or processed by my VB 2005 Express projects that were the examples of some tutorial books or my trial projects? How can I release the Northwind Database back to my SSMSE from the VB 2005 Express projects? Please help and advise.

Thanks in advance,
Scott Chang

Repair Northwind Database In SQL Server Management Studio Express

May 7, 2007

Hi all,

Long time ago, I downloaded the Northwind and pubs databases from the Microsoft website (I do not remember the details of it) and installed these two databases together into the SQL Server Management Studio Express of my PC (Microsoft Windows XP Pro). I tried to learn an example of using "User Instance" (source code was from a book) on the Northwind database located in my SQL Server Management Studio Express. I just find out that my Northwind database has the title only and no tables at all. If I click on the "+" in front of the "Northwind", I got the following error message:

Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express



Failed to retrieve data for this request.(Microsoft SqlServer.Express.SmoEnum)



Additional information:

One or more files do not match the primary file of the database. If you are attempting to attach a database, retry the operation with the correct files. If this is an existing database, the file may be corrupted and should be restored from backup. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 5173)..



Please help and tell me how I can repair this Northwind database in my SQL Server Management Studio Express.



Scott Chang



P. S.



I deleted the name 'Northwind' in my SQL Server Management Studio Express, executed the "SQL2005DBScriptsInstnwind" program and I got the following error message: Msg 1802, Level 16, State 4, Line 1

CREATE DATABASE failed. Some file name listed could not be created. Checked related errors.

Northwind Database In SQL Server Express Is Busted And Gone,after SqlCommand Fails In VB2005Express-How To Prevent It Happen?

Aug 21, 2007

Hi all,

I tried to use dbo.tables of Northwind database in SQL Server Express to do SqlCommand to populate a DataTable in DataSet. The SqlCommand failed in the project execution and I found that Northwind database in SQL Server Express is busted and gone (just the name "Northwind" remained in the SQL Server Management Studio Express). How can I prevent it from happening in my "SqlCommand-SqlConnection" project? Please help and advise.

I tried to repair my "Northwind" database by using the SQL2000SampleDb.msi of Northwind and pubs Sample Databases for SQL Server 2000 downloaded from the http://www.microsoft.com/downloads. My "pubs" database is still in my SQL Server Management Studio Express. How can I just repair my "Northwind" database by using the Microsoft SQL2000SampleDb.msi program? Please help and advise this matter too.

Thanks in advance,

Using Northwind Database In VB 2008 Express Tutorial

Feb 23, 2008

I have been following the Visual Basic Guided Tour for VB 2008 Express and I'm having a problem with the following part.


ms-help://MS.VSCC.v90/MS.msdnexpress.v90.en/dv_vbcnexpress/html/48fcb538-d8c7-4299-a2bf-a5b6f80d879d.htm
Creating LINQ to SQL Classes: Using the O/R Designer


I am getting the error "Generating user instances in SQL Server is disabled. Use sp_configure 'user instances enabled' to generate user instances.", when I get to the Test Connection button.

I have found the following help page,


ms-help://MS.VSCC.v90/MS.msdnexpress.v90.en/SqlExpressBol/html/85385aae-10fb-4f8b-9eeb-cce2ee7da019.htm


but I have no idea how to use this information as it assumes the user knows what they are doing!
The solution appears to involve running a scipt of some sort, but where would that be run?
I have looked at the SQL server Express information, but can't find how to run sp_configure.
Your help would be much appreciated.

New Install Of Sql Server Express Fails To Restore Master Database

Sep 20, 2006

Hello,

I have a fresh install of sqlExpress and Management Studio Express on my test server. I want to restore my master database from backup.

From the command prompt I set the Sqlservr -s SQLEXPRESS -m

Then I opened another comand prompt and ran my SQLCMD script to restore the Master Database.

here is the sql script:
RESTORE DATABASE [Master] FROM DISK = N'E:COPLEYNEWSDATABASEBACKUPMaster.bak' WITH FILE = 1, MOVE N'mastlog' TO N'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDATAMaster_1.ldf', NOUNLOAD, STATS = 10
GO

I recieve the following error.

The backup set holds a backup of a database other than the existing 'Master' dat
abase.
Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Server COPLEYNEWSSQLEXPRESS, Line 1

SQL Server 2005 Express Adv. SP2 Setup Fails To Install SQL Server Database Serices Only.

Mar 26, 2007

I run setup using GUI. It upgrades all components of the existing installation w/out any problems except the last component. That is, it proceeds with the installation of SQL Server Database Serices and at the end fails to shut down the SQL Server and aborts the installation reporting the following:

"Service 'Computer_NameSQLEXPRESS' could not be stopped. Verify that you have sufficient privileges to stop system services. The error code is (16386)".

I am running Windows XP SP2 with both .NET 2.0 and .NET 3.0 installed on it. I am logged in as a system administrator.

The most puzzling to me things are:

- the setup starts AND STOPS w/out any problems SQL Server Reporting Services and SQL Server VSS Writer (thus finding enough privileges for both).

- the setup starts the SQL Server w/out any problems (thus it finds enough privileges to START A SYSTEM SERVICE) and then fails as described above 'lucking privileges".

During installation before failing the setup displays following:

"Run as Normal User. RANU instance Shutdwon in progress: MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS". The "normal user" puzzles me too, unless the SQL Server itself is meant here.

Any suggestions would be appreciated. I can provide the installation log file as well.

Thanks.

Unattended Re-install Of SQL Server 2005 Express Fails To Re-create Database!

May 2, 2008

Hi,

I have a script that performs an unattended installation of SQL Server and works fine.

However, if I un-install via the control panel all the files are removed apart from the databases that are created by me when SQl server was installed. This is good and ensures data is not deleted.

The files left over are in the following directory:
C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLData
and contains:
MyDatabase.mdf
MyDatabase_log.LDF

The problem I have is after performing the re-installtion of SQL server (unattended) I am unable to create a new database with the same name (in this instance called "myDatabase").

The actual files are physically there so this is the reason a new database with the same name cannot be creacted.

Again this is ok again because it ensures I cannot overwrite existing data. However I am unable to re-attach this database to SQl server so I can continue to use it!

The question is:

How do I make this database usable again after an unattended install? Is there a parameter I am missing?

Below are the commands I use that are passed to the installation of SQL Server as command line parameters:

#define SQL_SILENT "-q /passive /norebootchk /qn reboot=ReallySuppress"
#define SQL_USERNAME "username=MyUserName"
#define SQL_COMPANYNAME "companyname=MyCompanyName"
#define SQL_ADDLOCAL "addlocal=ALL"
#define SQL_DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS "disablenetworkprotocols=0"
#define SQL_INSTANCENAME "instancename=MSSQLSERVER"
#define SQL_SQLAUTOSTART "SQLAUTOSTART=1"
#define SQL_SECURITYMODE "SECURITYMODE=SQL"
#define SQL_SAPWD "SAPWD=#Password#"
#define SQL_SAVESYSDB "1"
#define SQL_USESYSDB ""
#define SQL_INSTALLSQLDIR ""
#define SQL_INSTALLDATADIR ""

#define SQL_PARAMETERS SQL_SILENT + " " + SQL_USERNAME + " " + SQL_COMPANYNAME + " " + SQL_ADDLOCAL + " " + SQL_DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS + " " + SQL_INSTANCENAME + " " + SQL_USESYSDB + " " + SQL_INSTALLSQLDIR + " " + SQL_INSTALLDATADIR + " " + SQL_SAVESYSDB + " " + SQL_SQLAUTOSTART + " " + SQL_SECURITYMODE + " " + SQL_SAPWD


The last four commands I have played around with but for some reason SQL Server service will not start when these are used! (This is a different issue though!).


Any advice would be gratefully accepted.

Thanks

Paul

Unable To Re-install SQL Server 2005 Express And Also SQL Express Toolkit

Jul 28, 2007

Hi,


I had some issues on my server and had to uninstall .Net Framework 2.0, SQL Server 2005 Express, and SQL Express Toolkit. I installed SQL Server 2005 Express and it seemed to be ok.


Then my problems all started when I tried to install SQL Express Toolkit because I needed to install DTS Wizard again, and it errors out and wouldn't let me install it. So I uninstalled everything that's listed above again.


I then tried to install SQL Server 2005 Express again, and on the second from last screen, while its listing all the components and configuring them, I get the following error as it's configuring the last component... which was the SQL Server Database Services.


TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Setup
-----------------------------------------------------------
The SQL Server service failed to start. For more information, see the SQL Server Books Online topics, "How to: View SQL Server 2005 Setup Log Files" and "Starting SQL Server Manually."


I tried to re-install the SQL Server Express another 7 times wth no luck.


If anyone can point me in the right direction I'd really appreciate it.


Thanks,
Bill

My SQL server 2005 is standard version, OS Windows server 2003 sp2, I am using Administrator account to install it.

Thanks a lot,

Rex

=================================================
In my VB 2005 Express, I created a project "KimmelCallNWspWithAdoNet" that had the following code:
--Form_Kimmel.vb--
Imports System.Data

Imports System.Data.SqlClient

Imports System.Data.SqlTypes

Public Class Form_Kimmel


Public Sub InsertCustomer()

Dim connectionString As String = "Integrated Security-SSPI;Persist Security Info=False;" + _

"Initial Catalog=northwind;Data Source=NAB-WK-EN12345"

Dim connection As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection(connectionString)

connection.Open()

Try

Dim command As SqlCommand = New SqlCommand("InsertCustomer", connection)

command.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure

command.Parameters.Add("@CustomerID", "PAULK")

command.Parameters.Add("@CompanyName", "Pauly's Bar")

command.Parameters.Add("@ContactName", "Paul Kimmel")

command.Parameters.Add("@ContactTitle", "The Fat Man")

command.Parameters.Add("@Address", "31025 La Jolla")

command.Parameters.Add("@City", "Inglewoog")

command.Parameters.Add("@Region", "CA")

command.Parameters.Add("@Counrty", "USA")

command.Parameters.Add("@PostalCode", "90425")

command.Parameters.Add("@Phone", "(415) 555-1234")

command.Parameters.Add("@Fax", "(415 555-1235")

Console.WriteLine("Row inserted: " + _

command.ExecuteNonQuery().ToString)

Catch ex As Exception

Console.WriteLine(ex.Message)

Throw

Finally

connection.Close()

End Try



End Sub

End Class
==============================================


I executed the Form_Kimmel.vb and I got no errors. But I did not get the new values insterted in the table "Custermers" of Northwind database. Please help and tell me what I did wrong and how to correct this problem.

Thanks in advance,
