I have a server with sql 2000 and 2005 installed on it. When I try to connect to the msde 2000 database with an app or with managment studio express I get the following error
"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. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: -1)

But When I go through dos and type osql -S(local)database -E
it connects to the correct msde instance. How can I fix this with out uninstalling sql server 2005????
Hello All, I work for a company that packages MSDE and MSSQL 8.0 because our software requires storing client information in a database. The problem is that we've found that if the our users have another DB engine installed (BDE or Paradox usually), our program has trouble using MSDE to access the database and thus making our software inaccessible. It behaves as if this other database engine locks on our database before MSDE can. I'm basically looking for help on either how to uninstall these other db engines or how to get around this problem so that both MSSQL and other db engines can co-exist in one system.

package A is the main package and calls packages B and C using 2 "Execute Package Task"s. package B is a package constructed from scratch. package C is a package started by file copying the package B .dtsx file in Windows Explorer and then adding/removing/renaming content.
If I run packages B and C separately they work fine.
If I run package A, package B is started and finishes correctly. Then package C is started and stops somewhere in the middle.
I guess this is because some of the component id's within package C are identical to those in package B ( I checked in the dtsx packages using Notepad. ) and somehow SSIS remembers the precedence constraints of package B and stops executing the rest of C. But I am not sure. And I do not know how to solve this without a risk of losing two days of work.
I need p.phonenumber in there but then it messes up my DISTINCT ON m.number because I end up with dup m.numbers if I run just the inner select statement during testing.
But then I need the phonenumber in that subquery so that I can do list.phonenumber
ahh!
UPDATE Master SET master.homephone = list.phonenumber FROM MASTER m INNER JOIN (SELECT DISTINCT p.number, topphone.phonenumber FROM phones p INNER JOIN (SELECT top 1 phonenumber from phones) as topphone ON topphone.number = p.number WHERE p.phonetypeID = 1 AND ISNULL(p.good, 0) <> 0 AND LEN(p.phonenumber) = 10 ) AS list ON m.Number = list.Number WHERE m.homephone IS NULL OR m.homephone = ''
Error:
Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Procedure Skiaa, Line 66 Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'top'. Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Procedure Skiaa, Line 88 Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'top'.
I want to update m.homephone with the p.phonenumber based in the filtering critiria I have specified but this simple task is turning out to be a pain.
I have to set a Disaster Recovery (DR) server from my production Server( Most probably, i will be using Database Mirroring for my DR Server). Right now, the production is log shipped to another server for reporting every 15 minutes.
So, for setting up Database Mirroring onto my DR Server, i can take Full Backup from production without damaging log Shipping. But, for setting up Database Mirroring, we need to restore most recent Transaction log backup with norecovery ( Correct me if i am wrong).
But, I cannot take log back because the prodcution database is log shipped for Reporting needs. If taken, log chain breaks.
Can anyone please suggest some work around for setting up the DR Server with minimal downtime.
Hi,I basically have two tables with the same structure. One is an archiveof the other (backup). I want to essentially insert the data in to theother.I use:INSERT INTO table ( column, column .... )SELECT * FROM table2Now, table2 has a rule on various columns:@CHARACTER IN ('Y','N')but the column allows nulls, in the design view is says so anyway.When I run this query I get:A column insert or update conflicts with a rule imposed by a previousCREATE RULE statement. The statement was terminated. The conflictoccurred in database 'database', table 'table', column 'column'.The statement has been terminated.Obviously, I've changed the names of everything.The only data in those columns which could possibly conflict with therule is the NULL value. Any ideas why this doesn't work?Thanks.
Using Merge replication, I have a table that is filtered using the HOST_NAME() function. The filter also makes use of a function (as the HOST_NAME() is overriden to return some complex data).
Everything replicates and filters just fine. but when I add a join filter on a different table (the join filter is a simple foreign key join) I get the following error when the snapshot agent is run:
Message: Conflicting locking hints are specified for table "fn_GetIDList". This may be caused by a conflicting hint specified for a view. Command Text: sp_MSsetup_partition_groups Parameters: @publication = test1
fn_GetIDList is the function used in the original filter.
I am working on an app that getting quite a few deadlocks due to delete statements. I have turned on the sql trace flags and pulled the offending delete statements out of the ERRORLOG and trying to mesh those up with the indexes defined on the table, etc. looking to see if there is anything that can be done strictly from the db side (no app code change) to reduce/eliminate these deadlocks. I have ran some tests/played around with RCSI and even disabling lock escalation but neither have improved my results.
What I have done is to search the errorlog file for DELETE FROM Tablename, output those matching lines, then sort of normalize the literal values to # or XYZ, open in Notepad++, removed trailing whitespace + dups and sort to come up with these results for the unique list of offending T-SQL statements (a LOT easier to read in text editor so sending screen cap.
However, the userelationship function does not override the active relationship between Operation & Advice and so the measure is limited to Advices directly filtered by the Operation table.
If I delete the relationship between Operation and Advice, then the measure works as expected i.e. Operation indirectly filters Operation Commodity which filters Advice.
We are in need of a solution to our problem. We are working for a customer and cannot use their database to work on during development. We have copied the layout and made a sample db for our development. Rather than writing down all the changes we make to our own db and then making the same changes to the customer's, is there a better way? Can we use something like sourcesafe? Thankyou
I've got a few SQL Servers at work which are development servers using SQL Server Standard Edition. I would like to downgrade them to SQL Server Developer Edition to save the Standard Edition licenses for production purposes. However, i do not wish to uninstall and reinstall SQL Server Developer Edition, restore all the dbs. Is there a way to change the version of the SQL Server ?
Hi All, Can we have 2 versions of SQL Server on the same server? Example, can I install SQL Server 2000 and 2005 on the same server? Please let me know about all the combinations possible/not possible.
Is there a way to do the following -- I need to be able to update a table based on a selection by a DDL. So here are my two update queries: 1. Update RequestData Set Approved = True Where DeptID = @DeptID2. Update RequestData Set Approved = True (Yes I need to be able to do all of the rows at once.) But it's all based on the selection of the DDL---I really don't want to have to create two seperate sql commands any ideas?
Is there a way to remove old versions of a DTS package without rewriting the entire package? These packages run fine but take up more space than I am willing to allocate.
I understand the SANs are only Supported by SQL Server 2000 Enterprise and no other versions of SQL, can anyone supply information to the contrary please?
This may seem like a wierd question, but can I have 6.5 and 7.0 running on the same machine? I need 6.5 for production builds and 7.0 for test. Is this possible? THanks
I can see that SQL server 2000 trial is available for download, but I need to try out 7 for a particular project at work. Is this available for trial download? (Has it ever been?)
Hi all... I'm a MySQL user and I want to switch to MS SQL Server, I heared that there is more than one type of MS SQL Server and one or two can be downloaded for free. Can someone tell me the different types of MS SQL Server and where can I download those free versions?
I'm running a SQL 7 db on a LAN in city A with other users accessing it fromanother city (city B) over a WAN. Obviously the WAN users are getting muchslower access to the data. One thing I was wondering was if it was possibleto have two versions of the database, one on each server, and have themautomatically synchronize as users at each location make changes. Or, ifthat's not possible, then at least have the city B users get any changesthat the city A users get as they are made.Thanks for any input.Neil
Is it possible to run both SQL200 standard and SQL2005 Express on thesame server? I need to test a database created in 2005 on ourproduction server but don't want to upgrade our "live" databases yet.
I uninstalled the 32-bit Standard version but during install of the 64-bit trial version I got an error that the integration services could not install because the 32-bit version of COM+ was already registered and you can't have both. Need some help how to resolve this issue. Thanks
We will be upgrading from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005. From what I have read, as part of the installation of SQL 2005 we will be installing the .Net framework 2.0 and Visual Studio 2005. We currently have production .Net applications which were developed in Visual Studio 2003 with the .Net framework 1.1. We plan at some point to upgrade our applications to Visual Basic 2005, but we were planning on upgrading to SQL 2005 first. I have a couple of questions about this.
1) We are a small shop and the same server which hosts our production applications also hosts SQL server for our model office and test applications. Can we have both versions of the common language runtime running on the same server?
2) Our .Net applications access the SQL data through stored procedures or views. I have run the Upgrade Advisor and it does not look as though there are any signficant upgrade issues with our SQL database objects, so we are tentatively planning on changing the compatibility levels of our databases to 90 after they are imported to SQL 2005. Assuming we take care of any SQL issues that we do have with our database objects, should we expect to encounter problems running our existing applications, under the older version of vb.net, and accessing our databases once we have upgraded to SQL 2005? (Of course we plan to test everything, but I just wanted to know if we should anticipate anything in particular.)
Hi If i develop a web application with sql server developement edition, it works fine in my webserver, or my webserver has to have the sql server development too?

I have a DTS Package created with SQL2000 client tools, which contains a SQL connection and a sql task (exec sp_who2). When I run the package on my PC it works, when I run the package via SQL Agent it comes back with :-
DTSRun: Loading... Error: -2147287038 (80030002); Provider Error: 0 (0) Error string: The system cannot find the file specified. Error source: Microsoft Data Transformation Services (DTS) Package Help file: sqldts.hlp Help context: 713. Process Exit Code 1. The step failed.
I am not using any files. The DTS Package is called PMC_Test
Here is the dtsrun syntax from the SQL Agent job.
DTSRun /S "APP003" /N "PMC_Test" /E
When I try and open the DTS package using SQL7 client tools I get the same error message.
I'm trying to correct an error that a user is getting when running SQL Server 7.0 SP3, Desktop edition/ Windows NT 4.0 SP6. The error says that C:WINNTSYSTEM32odbcint.dll and C:WINNTSYSTEM32odbccp32.dll are different versions. I tried to install MDAC 2.5 sp1 to correct this problem but this message continues throughout the install. This is causing sqlagent service to hang. Any ideas of how to reinstall ODBC components without reinstalling the OS?
I know this is a very basic question for all of you but I need help.
I am a CPA working with a client to select an accounting & project management software for a construction client. In the top 5 choices, there are 2 that require MS SQL Server as the DB. This client will have about 10-20 users, including project managers & accounting personnel but by DB standards transaction volumes will be low. The company has a few large projects. There is no inhouse IT staff; network administration is outsourced.
The question on the table is this? How much more difficult is it to use MS SQL server in this environment? If all of the client's requirements can be met using a run-time version of Sybase, Pervasive, or FoxPro, isn't this the simplest solution. I don't want to recommend an elephant if it is not needed. I would appreciate your opinion....Thanks
