How 2 Install Client Tools For SQl Server
May 31, 2004
In Server Explorer of VS .NET 2003, I tried to generate SQL script of the dbo.Portal (ibs)
but got
"To use this feature, you must install the client tols for SQL Server"
When I searched for Help, I've got
"1.Insert the MS SQL Server 2000 compact disc in your CD-ROM drive"
I installed and use MSDE and cannot recall the use of any CD for installation.
1)
Does it mean that I cannot install client tools from MSDE installation?
If not...
2)
I have installation of MS SQL Server200 Enterprise that cannot be installed on Windows Xp Professional that I use. Can I still install "client tools" from Enterprise Ed. for MSDE

Hi all... assisting with mass deployment of SQL 2005 Client Tools.
Multiple users are able to pass the System Configuration Check, and click Next. It is on the next screen they see the following:
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Setup [_][X]

Microsoft SQL Server Installation
Setup is preparing to continue with the installation.

After eight minutes, the install bombs, and sends an error report to Microsoft.
I saw a similar post here, but these are XP machines and Administrators appear to have the proper permissions. I also do not get the error message "Error writing to file".
Here is a section of the _WI log file generated by the install..

Hi,
I just installed SQL Server for the first time on a windows 2003 OS which is on its on server. Then, I installed the client tools on my local computer. Now how do I connect to the sql server with my client tools? What I wanted to do is from my local computer use the enterprise manager and pull up the databases that are located on the server that contains the sql server.
Thanks a bunch,

Someone please help me before I loose all of my hair :mad: !!!
I have two machines, a Windows Server 2003 machine running an SQL Server Standard Edition database instance and client tools (Enterprize Manager etc.), and a workstation PC running Windows XP SP2 which has just the SQL Server client tools (not an actual DB instance).
I'm trying to use the Enterprize Manager client tool on my WinXP machine to remotely connect to the server instance on the server PC (via 'New SQL Server Registration' option). Everytime I do this I get the following error message:
Login failed for user 'sa'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server Connection.
Now I've tried using different usernames and passwords. I have login details for my SQL Server set to use Windows Login rather then SQL Server login, so I tried remotely connecting with the username and password for the server PC, tried 'sa' with server password, even tried setting up a new user on the server and logging in from the client with that, no luck. I've opened up correct ports 1433 on both PCs, even disabled the windows firewalls algother. Both server and client have SP3a installed, WinServer2003 has SP1 and XP SP2.
So I'm at a loss to how to remotely connect to my SQL Server. FYI I know the server itself is working fine because I can connect to it using Enterprize Manager/Query Analyser on the local machine. Any ideas? Many thanks for your help!

Hi,
I'm trying to re-install SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine andSQL Server client tools. I have succesfully re-installed the desktop engine,but I am getting the following error message when attempting to re-install theclient tools.
"Setup has detected an existing client tools only installation.
Please use the maintenance mode to add client components"
Unfortunately the Upgrade/Add/Remove option is greyed out as
an install option.
I attempted the registry hive rebuild option and the install appeared
to succeed. However, I cannot access any tools (Enterprise Manager
comes up with the message "The selected file cannot be found").
At this point, the desktop engine appears in Add/Remove programs
Window, but no other SQL Server components.
Any help very much appreciated!

Hello,
I have installed SQL server 2005 enterprise edition on Windows 2003 virtual PC (full installation). The installation went through successfully. However, after install completed, I cannot find any of the client tools under the start menu -> all programs -> Microsoft SQL server 2005 menu. The only item listed under the SQL server 2005 is Configuration Tools, which is used to configure the database server.
I have tried to install the client component again (in case I didn't install them at the first place) but the installation process cannot be started since it detected that the client components have been installed already. I can also see the sql server native client running in the services.
The server engine is working fine since I can connect to that sql server using another machine where I have the client tool (SQL server management studio).
One of my friends has exactly the same problem. He installed the sql server 2005 Standard edition on windows 2003 server (full installation), but the client tools are not showing up in the start menu either.
I also checked the location for the SQL server management studio (Microsoft SQL server/90/Tools/Binn/VSShell/Common7/IDE), there is only one folder called publicAssemblies listed under. Is this correct or something is missing?
Thanks

Hi,
A quick Q for all the Sql Server 2000 beta testers out there. Does anyone know of any problems associated with using SS2000 Enterprise Manager with a SS7 backend running SP2? In particular, I'm keen to try out the Tsql debugger features, if they'll work with SS7.
Many thanks in advance,

Hi all,
Having massive problem getting the SQL Server 2005 Management Tools to install on a XP Professional (SP2) computer. So I have no SSMS, Profiler, etc. Neither the files are there, nor the icons.
The error in the dialog box is coming back with:
"A component that you have specified in the ADD_LOCAL property is already installed. To upgrade the existing component, refer to the remplate.ini and set the UPGRADE property to the name of the component."
The computer would have had SQL 2000 and SQL 2005 Express Edition installed at some stage but both were uninstalled before my attempting to install SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition. Build 9.00.1399.06.
After this dialog box the setup fails that component (Management Tools) then crashes, generating a CAB file with all the logs in the C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90Setup BootstrapLOG directory.
The log files seem to indicate an incompatibility between version of files installed and what wants to be installed.
Problem of course is that it's probably read this from the registry somewhere, the files physically do not exist.
So I have tried the following with no luck:
start /wait setup.exe /qb REINSTALL=SQL_Tools90
start /wait setup.exe /qb REINSTALL=SQL_Tools90 REINSTALLMODE=OMUS
start /wait setup.exe /qb UPGRADE=SQL_Tools90
start /wait setup.exe /qb UPGRADE=SQL_Tools90 REINSTALLMODE=OMUS
So then I had a look in the registry. Found Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Tools under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionUninstall{A30965BD-2D4D-45CE-8F04-6A6889818CF1}
Is was to deleting the entire subtree, so thought that if I rename the GUID value and even the name that might solve the problem and force an install.
Still no joy.
So any ideas on how to force an installation of the Management Tools. I then plan to install SQL Server 2005 SP2.
I do not think that installing SQL Server 2005 SP2 will reinstall the files, but I could be wrong.
So any suggestions on what to wipe from the registry, whether there is a later set of the tools that I can install separately, or how I can force a reinstallation of the tools. Or should I install SQL Server 2005 SP2 and hope it fixes it up?
Perhaps I should uninstall the Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Tools using MsiExec.exe /I{A30965BD-2D4D-45CE-8F04-6A6889818CF1} from the registry and then try to install them again?
TIA,
Victor

I downloaded and performed a full install of SQL Server Express 2008 Nov CTP. It was installed on a fresh installation of Windows Vista Enterprise x64.
During setup, I checked the 'Client Tools' box which has the description:
"Includes management and development tools: SQL Server Management Studio, SQL Server Configuration Manager, SQL Server Profiler, and Database Engine Tuning Advisor"
The installation ran fine with no errors. After install I looked for the Management Studio but couldnt find it anywhere. No SQL Server Profiler or Database Tuning Advisor either. The only tool that appears to have installed is the SQL Server Configuration Manager.
If I check my Start Menu, the only 2008 items that exist are

Hi,
I have SQL Mobile 2005 server tools installed on my server and also my development PC. I started working with SQL Compact on a mobile application I'm developing so I downloaded the SQL Compact Server Tools and installed on my laptop and it added folders "syncSQL" to my "Program FilesSQL Mobile" folder. I used the configure web sync wizard to create a sync folder for SQL Compact and it added the file sqlcesa30.dll version 3.0.5300.0 to the new folder. The previous sync folders set up using SQL Mobile have version 3.0.5214.0 of the same file.
I then went to install the Compact Server Tools on my server (downloaded the file). When it was installing it asked if I wanted to repair or remove SQL Mobile Server Tools (it didn't do this on the laptop install). I selected "repair" and it apparently successfully installed. I checked the Program FilesSQL Mobile folder and there was no "syncSQL" folder. I created a new web sync folder and the version of sqlcesa30dll added is 3.0.5223.0.
My laptop is running XP Professional and the server is Server 2003. Both are running SQL Server 2005 SP2. It looks like it hasn't installed the server tools correctly on the server, what am I doing wrong? I'm also getting a lot of sync errors and wonder if it has something to do with Compact/Mobile incompatibility.
Some extra information: when I install the SQL Compact Server Tools on my XP Pro computer, the installer window title says "Microsoft SQL Server Compact Edition - English". When I run the same install file on Windows Server 2003 the window title is "Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Mobile SP1 [ENU] Server Tools". It seems to install different versions of the software depending on the operating system. Could someone from Microsoft please confirm that this is the case, and advise how I can get the correct SQL Compact Server Tools for my server.
Regards,
Greg

I'm trying to remember how to install the SQL 2000 client tools onto a SQL 2005 server. There are a couple of bizarre steps that will allow this to happen, but I can't for the life of me remember what comes after the unicycle down the stairs with the umbrella stand of machetes.
Can anybody remember the magic, or do I resort to using VPC to kludge the install until I can find my clay tablets again?

Hi all,
I've finally received my first official assignment using vb.net and SQL Server.
I have been developing / learning with both on the express editions.
I've also just run into some issues trying to access a SQL Server 2005 Express .mdf thru
SQL Server 2005 Pro.
We just couldn't get it to open. Connecting or Attaching etc...
We had to install SQL Server Express on the other PC to get it to open the SQL Server 2005 Express .mdf.
---
Now that I am ready to develop in ernest, I would like to setup my own controlled development environment.
Our target is a winforms application with a SQL Server 2005 Database for WinXP or Vista.
I'm ready to purchase Visual Studio 2005 Pro once I figure out the best development environment and SQL Server Version.
Specifically, once I've developed my winforms app, what issues do I need to consider to install a SQL Server 2005 database server / engine on a client / users machine?
Can I use the SQL Server 2005 Express?
Or perhaps there is an MSDE equivilant for 2005?
I can't seem to find any info regarding installation procedures for SQL Server in this regard.
(Perhaps its because I'm using the express editions?)
Any positive contructive help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Barry G. Sumpter
