Hi everyone,
I can't uninstall the sqlexpr32.exe from command line.
I read somewhere that I could do it by typing 'start /wait <drive:>sqlexpr32.exe /qb REMOVE=ALL INSTANCENAME=SQLEXPRESS'
but when I do that it extracts the support files to install the sqlexpress but it is already installed.
I'd like to remove it programmaticaly so if I knew the command line to uninstall sqlexpr32.exe, my problem will be solved.
Thanx in advance

my local instance of reporting services is named and therefore I think causing me a problem when I issue the following command to set up an unattended account...
rsconfig -s localhostinstance name -e -u domain nameuser name -p password
the message I keep getting is "No Reporting Services instance found on local host.". I tried a couple of things including replacement of the word localhost with my computer name but to no avail. I tried single and double quotes around the -s parameter but no success.
Anybody know how to do this?

I've two instances(Default, Named[dynamicsFINANCE]) running on SQL server 2014. However, when I try to connect to named instance say (dynamicsFINANCE) using SQL authentication from local SSMS, I get below error message:
A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: -1)
I assigned a static port number to the named instance [dynamicsFINANCE] 1450. I also setup the firewall rule to allow access to Port 1450.

I have a 3 node cluster on which I have installed SSAS as it's own insntance. I have created this as a named instance and can connect to it by serverinstance if I'm on the server itself. However from my desktop I get the error saying instance was not found on server name.
I have defined an alternate port and setup firewall rules and can connect via server:port but not serverinstance. Prior to making this change SSAS was running on default port of 2383 and I could connect just by servername.
I have read many articles for previous versions saying that clustered SSAS will always use 2383 and that you must connect just using servername. However and this is were it gets strange. I have a 2 node UAT cluster with SSAS setup exactly the same way I've described above and I can connect from my desktop as serverinstance.
Should I be able to connect as serverinstances for a named clustered instance in 2012 ?

Hi, I have a task in hand to migrate (upgrade) from SQL2K named instance to SQL2K5 default instance. There are many intranet applications touching current SQL2K. I would like to perform this upgrade such that I don't have to touch any application code - meaning I don't have to change the connectionstring to point to new Default instance. How can I achieve this?
So, in otherwords, here is what I want to achieve:
Current Server: SQL2K: SERVER_AINSTANCE_A (named instance)
Upgraded Server: SQL2K5: SERVERB (default instance)
If I have both default, I could achive this by setting up DNS alias after migration done so that any call for SERVER_A would point to SERVER_B. But in my case, I don't have SERVER_A, I have named instance. Is there any solution?
Regards,
Vipul

I am trying to set up a Named Instance of SQL 2000 on the same machine that has a default instance of SQL 7.0. The setup always completes and I am able to register the Named Instance of the SQL Server with which it was installed on. However, when I try to connect the users to the database, with both windows and SQL authentication, I receive a SQL server not found error. I have tried an alias setup as well as physically specifying the port number in settup up an ODBC connection.
Has anyone ran into similar problems?
Also, has anyone been able to successfully complete the process as mentioned above?

I have a server with sql server 2005 installed as the default instance -- I have a piece of software that needs SQL2000 to be the default instance. Is there a way other than install new sql2005 named instance and move databases to rename my SQL2005 instance from <machinename> to <machinename>sql05 for example?

I have SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition (sp3a) running on a windows 2003 (sp4) Server.
It is a Production Server with 3 NAMED Instances and NO Default Instance.
Does anyone know if I can rerun the SQL Server Install and add a DEFAULT Instance to this box without disrupting the other Named Instances???

I installed SQL Server 2005 recently on a cluster. I didn't go for the default instance and instead I named the instance option. Now I would like to migrate everything from the named instance to the default instance, which I haven't yet installed.
Is this an easy process? What about the logins and the maintenance plans and jobs? Is there anything else I need to be aware of?

Hi
I've never had to do this, but when I downloaded the Web Workflow Approvals Starter Kit, it requested that I install the database into a User Instance of .SQLEXPRESS.
Now the problem is, I've installed it onto a default instance, so I was wondering whether you can create a named instance on top of a default instance... and if so, how would you do that?
Cheers
Chris

I needed to re-install the entire sql server 2005, I used add/remove program. everything went normal, except reporting service. I deleted the entire upper sql server directory, rebooted the box, however, it still shows up in services, even though the path does not exist. I tried to reinstall it again, but it complains about name already exists. I cannot change the name, but I am not able to find how I can remove it and reinstall it properly.
Last Action : DetectInstanceClash
Error String : An instance with the same name is already installed on this computer. To proceed with SQL Server Setup, provide a unique instance name.
Error Number : 28086

The box I am trying to connect to is running two instances of SQL Server.
There is a SQL Server 2005 instance which is the default. There is a SQL Server 2000 instance which is named 'SQLSERVER'.
I can connect to the SQL Server 2000 instance no problem:<add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPCSQLSERVER;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" />
However, I am having trouble connecting to the Default SQL Server 2005 instance. I have tried:
<add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPC;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" />
but it doesn't work. I have tried explicitly setting SQL Server 2005 to use port 1434 (as SQL Server 2000 is running on port 1433), and then used:
<add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPC,1434;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" />
but this doesn't work either.
Am I mssing something here? Any help much appreciated
Thanks...

I've installed SSAS 2012 as a failover cluster instance on a 2-node Windows 2012 R2 cluster. All was fine in that regard but I now need to change the instance name so am going about the process of uninstalling and re-installing. I've successfully removed the second node from the configuration using the "Remove cluster node" wizard from the Setup options, but when it comes to removing it from the final node I'm getting the error "the cluster group **** could not be moved from node x to node 'null'". At this point the uninstall fails and the cluster resource remains in cluster administrator. It's obviously done some work/damage because the service won't start now, but it's left in limbo land where I can't do anything with it.
Is there a manual way of removing the instance to overcome this issue (file deletions, registry entry deletions etc.)?

Tried to uninstall SQL Server 64-bit on Windows 2003 remotely. All components uninsntalled properly except Reporting Services.
The log file lists the following error -
/*****
ReportingServicesService!library:: e ERROR: Throwing Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.ReportServerDatabaseUnavailableException: The report server cannot open a connection to the report server database. A connection to the database is required for all requests and processing., ;
Info: Microsoft.ReportingServices.Diagnostics.Utilities.ReportServerDatabaseUnavailableException: The report server cannot open a connection to the report server database.

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. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
*******/
Now I cannot see Reporting Services under Add/Remove programs (ARPWrapper.exe /remove). It is also not displayed when using Windows Installer Cleanup Utility (msicuu2.exe). I can start the default instance of RS via Reporting Services Configuration manager and it can also be also started under Windows Services. BTW, the IIS folder structure is under the default website for Reports and ReportServer is present.
So, now how do I go about uninstalling SQL Reporting Services when I cannot see it (as an installed program) without rebuilding the machine ?
Thank you.

This is probably easy for some who have done it, but I have an installed Instance of SQL Server 2008 Express or SQL Server 2008 R2 Express I'll call Instance CCC and need to remove it. I have two other Express instances I'll call Instance AAA and Instance BBB. I want to uninstall Instance CCC without affecting the other two instances or the software that uses them. Instance CCC should have been installed as a SQL Server 2012 Express instance, so I need to remove the 2008 Instance of CCC and reinstall it as 2012. In all cases, I'm talking about SQL Server Express. Full SQL Server is not installed.
The Instances are all installed on a Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard server.
I have read that I can do this through Control Panel > Programs and Features, but that I can corrupt or mess up the other instances (AAA and BBB) if I don't do it right. I'm uneasy about this, not having done it before, and do not want to affect the users of the AAA and BBB instances!

I am running SQL2k SP3 with a default instance. I have recently added a second, named instance. When I try to connect to the named instance through Enterprise manager, it often times out. I never get a timeout accessing the default instance. Is there something I missed when setting up the second instance that is causing this access delay?
Thanks,
Ken Nicholson

Hi,
I did install SQL-server developer edition. During the installation it asked me the name of de instance. I let the installation create the default Named instance.
Now I want to add an instance with a new name. What is the best way to do this? Is this the same as creating a Notification service?

I have sql2000 and sql2005 on one machine.
When I try to query a named instance of sql2005 from query analyzer in sql 2000 I recieved an error regarding an entry not being in the sysservers table. I added an entry pointing to the new install of sql2005. Now I get an error message saying
Server: Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Line 2
Line 2: Incorrect syntax near '-'.
My server name is BB-SERVER1 It definitly does not like the hyphen. Any thoughts?
Changing the server name is not really an option.

We want to rename our instance and I understand there isn't a straightforward way to do so. I'm prepared to run SQLEXPR again to create the new named instance. However, I'm not clear on how to remove the other named instance once the data files have been moved over. I do not want the old service "SQL Server (<old_named_instance>)" to be running. I would also like the files "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1" removed along with the registry entries for this instance.
I tried running SQLEXPR with a /? option but that invoked the installer and did not give me the command line options. Is there a simple way to remove a specific named instance? Thanks.

Hi everybody,
Here is my problem: I'm setting up a new computer with SQL 2005 to replace the old one with SQL 2000. What I want to do is to transfer all the data from the SQL Server 2000 to the 2005 then rename the 2005 from the temp name to the same name as the SQL 2000, so all the pages can connect to the 2005 instead of the 2000. The problem right now is that all of the pages that that are being published within the network is calling the SQL 2000 by it instance only eg: Data Source = MainSQLServer. With the SQL 2005 I can't just call the instance in the connection string, it requires that the computer's name and the instance be provided, eg: \computer_nameinstance_name. I can't go back and edit every single one of the pages being served. So I need to configure the SQL 2005 in a way that all of the existing pages can access it with the same connection string that is in use right now to connect to the SQL 2000.
Thanks for the help!

As understand it, the only way to add another SQL Express 2005 named instance is to run SQLEXPR32.EXE again. However, when you to, right at the end, you get the following error message:
"An installation package for the product MS SQLK Server VSS Writer cannot be found. Try the installation again using a valid copy of the installation package 'SQLWriter.msi'"
So, I deleted all named instances, and the repeated the procedure and did not get this error and it installed fine. Obviously, I would not be able to delete all instances, but in this case it didn't matter.
So, here are my questions:
Question 1) Am I correct you must rerun SQLEXPR32.EXE to create a new named instance? (I think the answer is yes)
Question 2) Is there a way to rename an existing named instance? (I think the answer is no)
Question 3) The install/uninstall for SQLEXPR32.EXE is incredibly buggy. I have spend days trying to remove an named instance with no succes. Once your remove all named instances from Control Pannel, you stll have not removed SQL Express 2005. How do you remove it? We are considering other avenues because of the incredible problems with this product. Also, we inadvertantly installed SQL Express 2005 Advanced Services, when we meant to install SQL Express 2005, so we would like to uninstall Advance Serviuces and reinstall SQL Express 2005
Question 4) I am switching from the Outlook Express newsgroups to these groups. In the context of these groups, what is the difference betwee a Forum and a Newsgroup?
Thanks

Hi There
I cannot find anything online or in BOL about the proper format for a named instance in the routing address.
is it simply
ADDRESS = 'TCP://SERVERNAMEINSTANCENAME:4026'
or do you need to provide the port number for the instance.Not sure if TCP recognises the instance part?
Thanx
