Is it possible for SQL 2005 Express SP2 to ignore the UPGRADE parameter during a commandline install? We would like to use one commandline to handle both a fresh intstall and an upgrade depending on which is needed.
Does it make any difference which order the commandline parameters are used?
Do I need to write something to check if an upgrade or fresh install is needed and then feed the appropriate parameters?
Thanks
hello, what is the general consensus on installing SQL 2005. I usually run a backup of SQL 2000 dbs and then restore on SQL 2005 and change compatibility to 9.0. Is it the right way to upgrade? I'm only asking because I also did one db in-place to SQL 2005 and thought it went well until I browsed my system dbs. All of them are missing tables that usually appear in SQL 2005 system dbs. Other than that I haven't run into too many problems.
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have just completed a default install of MS SQL Server 2005 x64 edition on a 1 processor Quad core, 8GB, Windows Server 2003 Standard x64 R2 machine in an Active Directory Domain. It has 2 arrays configured with 2) 36Gb drives mirrored for the OS as C: and 3) 147Gb drives in a RAID5 array as E: drive.
I am simply the server guy who was asked to install SQL server for some projects in the future. The company will be bring in people to to the dev.
I wanted to setup the server as best as I can and so I've been searching around for "best practices" for fresh installs.
Anyone have any suggestions on things to configure/setup to improve the performance of the default install?
In addition, I want to redirect the databases to the E: drive and separate them from the OS drive (C:). Does anyone have any information on doing this? I have searched and found a few articles, but thought I would ask first.
It is probably noticeable that I have limited SQL configuration skills.
Thanks,
A simple IT guy trying to build a system right
I am working as a consultant on a project to upgrade an Access 2000 db to SQL Server. My client has bought off on everything, and they're ordering a new dedicated box this week. They're getting a rackmount machine running Windows Server and SQL Server 2005.
My expectation was that their IT people would take care of administrative & security issues such as setting the machine up, installing & starting SQL Server and configuring the proper accounts. Suprisingly though, they're going to mount the machine in the rack, turn it on and let me do all of this.
I'm new at SQL Server, but I'm comfortable working with database objects (tables, views, etc...) I'm not so comfortable with the networking or administrative side of things. It took me a couple of hours to be able to connect to the DB on my desktop machine over my home network. You can see why I'm intimidated at the prospect of getting things integrated & running on a pretty large corporate network.
Maybe I'm overblowing this, but this just gives me the willies.
Are my fears justified? Am I going to be ok if I just follow the standard procedures for allowing TCP/IP connections to the server? Am I going to have to deal with firewalls? (I think I know the answer - "it depends on their network.." - that's what I'm scared of.. I don't know anything about their network, and I don't know enough about networking in general to figure things out..)
Are there any other best practices that I should follow for a fresh install?
Hi Everyone,
I was playing around with SQL2k5 Express, but decided to download Enterprise using my MSDN subscription. I installed it, but none of the services are running. I don't understand why?
I've checked the requirments and I notice that Vista x64 is not on the list for compatible OS's.
I do get this when trying to install:
- SQL Server Edition Operating System Compatibility (Warning)
Messages
SQL Server Edition Operating System Compatibility
Some components of this edition of SQL Server are not supported on this operating system. For details, see 'Hardware and Software Requirements for Installing SQL Server 2005' in Microsoft SQL Server Books Online.
Also, during the install, Componoents to Install: All the services are greyed out... is that because they can't be installed or because they're going to be installed by default?
Anyone else have it running on Vista Ultimate x64? Am I doing something wrong or does it just not install on this version of Vista?
Cheers,

New ssrs istall. I think they loaded sp2. It's a cluster, but ssrs was not clustered (I think)
When I attempt to open report manager, i just get
SQL Server Reporting Services
Home
with no option for creating a folder etc, like i have on development
When I attempt to deploy to ther server I get :
Deploying to http://amsqlclusterxx/reportserver/
Error rsItemAlreadyExists : The item '/Retailer' already exists.
How do I create an ssrs reports folder?
Also, and this is strange, but in vs.net I had to create a new shared datasource after removing the old one on the report with the same name. The report renders fine when I do an f5 pointing to a new datasource, but I no longer have the RUN "!" icon available while in the data tag to run my query. Why is this?
Thanks for any help or information.
Greetings
Attempting to upgrade standard edition to enterprise.
Tried running setup with the SKUUPGRADE switch per the documentation. Kept getting a modal message box that I had to use Control Panel to upgrade components. Searched Google & MSDN tried everything I found, no luck.
No problem, I'll backup, remove standard, and install enterprise.
Removed standard via control panel.
Ran Enterprise setup. On the setup screen everything is greyed out (e.g. disabled) except workstation components.
Install the workstation components, run it again, everything greyed out except workstation. Select again, says I have nothing to install.
Uninstalled via control panel.
Deleted the SQL Server directory from Program Files
Deleted all the files in WindowsTemp
Deleted every registry key with the words MicrosoftSQLServer in it.
Run install, everything greyed out except Workstation Components.
Okay I give up... Not sure what else to do except reformat the (#*$(@*&$(# computer which will take hours.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I am trying to upgrade SQL 2000 SP3 to SQL 2005 SP2 on a Windows 2003 server with all the latest patches. The SQL 2005 install went through like it was supposed to but when it was nearly finished it gave the message:
" there was an unexpected failiure during the setup wizard. You may review the setup logs and/or click the help button for more info". I'm pretty new to Microsoft SQL so I looked at help and there was no information.
I've tried running setup again and keep getting the above error message. During the install the program says everthing is installed but I've noticed the Management Center is missing.
Can the template.ini be setup to upgrade a previous version of MSDE if it exists or just install it if it does not?
I currently have ADDLOCAL=SQL_Engine and UPGRADE=SQL_Engine INSTANCENAME=MSSQLSERVER in the file but that does not seem to do it if the server does not exist.
Am I going to have to create two seperate ini files and tweak my install program to select the specific one or am I missing a simple step?
Thanks in Advance

When we do a clean install of SQL Express Advanced SP2, it installs SSMSEE with a 02/10/2007 date. However, if we do an "ugrade" install of an existing SQL Express SP1, SSMSEE does NOT get updated; it leaves the 04/14/2006 version on the target machine. Do we need to expressly install SSMSEE when doing an upgrade?

If I install a new named instance of SQL Server 2008 R2 on a machine that already has 3 named instances that are upgraded to service pack 3, will the install of the new instance overwrite any of the current SP3 files? Will I have to re-apply SP 3 to the existing instances?
View 4 Replies View RelatedHi,
I'm trying to Service Pack 4 a fresh installation of SQL 2000 (a named instance called 'SQLSERVER2000') and get the error "Installation of the Microsoft Full-Text Search Engine package failed. (-2147467259) 0x80004005 Unspecified Error" towards the end of the process thus I cannot service Pack my fresh installation of SQL 2000. I have done this many times before on other machines, but its not working for me this time.
At http://www.dbforums.com/ ( http://www.dbforums.com/showthread.php?t=1198047 ) someone ran into this problem and mentioned to re-install Microsoft Full-Text Search. I have followed the article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/827449 but run into problems at step 2C. At step 2C it says to start the Microsoft Search service via the Services console, but Microsoft Search was nowhere to be found.
Going back a step to Step 2B it says that all registry keys that were previously-deleted are now available and the previously-deleted 'MSSearch' folder is recreated. I took a look, but both the keys and folder WERE NOT there.
It is a fresh OS installation of MS Windows 2003 Standard SP1, 768MB RAM and is running fine.
Can you please point me in the right direction here?

Hi everyone I have been trying hard to unserstand the way my isp does things sort of a communication gap I guess. The problem is I want to use the personal website... yes I know this is a SQL forum and that is what I am going to get at. I having a problems with the database aspect of the whole situtation, I can't creat a aspnetdb.mdf on their server because that name aready exists and I am assuming that it is the system and not a user that ows it. Also I can't name the other database personal.mdf either for the same reasons, so someone at the isp has had me creat a different name database during the install process of the application and that worked fine for a little while and now it does not work no more and I am getting old faster than I'd like. So here is my plan my plan is to wipe out the current database for the application on my workstation but first make a list of tables and then create a new database for that web application. So I ask is it feasible and what do I have to look out for and if it is not to much to ask what steps might take to accomplish such a task. I want to thank anybody that is willing to help me in this matter.

Can anybody provide me with the guidelines to install a fresh copy of SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition? The previous installation included a system account and it was on the same drive as the operating system. I remember reading this was not a good practice. Am I wrong?
thanks in advance
greets, im coding a few queries to a table. im storing sets of records into the table, each set of records will haev a different batch id. so basically 2 sets of records can occupy this table at the same time, and their batch id is the main key (with 2 other fields also being PKs). i want to compare the 2 sets in the same table and get the differences:
1. records that were added
2. records that were updated
3. records that were deleted
ive written queries for the added records, and the updated records but i cant get the query for finding deleted records. the logic looks good to me but im obviously missing something so i could use a fresh pair of eyes.
here is the table def:
Code:
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[UPCXREF_BATCH] (
[BATCH_ID] [char] (10) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL ,
[CHAIN_CODE] [char] (5) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL ,
[UPC] [char] (16) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL ,
[ITM_CODE] [char] (6) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL ,
[ITM_CATEGORY] [char] (2) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL ,
[CREATE_DATE] [datetime] NULL
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[UPCXREF_BATCH] WITH NOCHECK ADD
CONSTRAINT [PK_UPCXREF_BATCH] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[BATCH_ID],
[CHAIN_CODE],
[UPC]
) ON [PRIMARY]
GO
and here are the queries ive gotten so far
Code:
/* This section retrieves all UPDATED records */
SELECT 'U' as FLAG, b2.CHAIN_CODE as CHAIN_CODE, b2.UPC, b2.ITM_CODE, b2.ITM_CATEGORY
FROM UPCXREF_BATCH b2 INNER JOIN UPCXREF_BATCH b1
ON b2.CHAIN_CODE=b1.CHAIN_CODE
AND b2.UPC=b1.UPC
AND (b2.ITM_CODE<>b1.ITM_CODE OR b2.ITM_CATEGORY <> b1.ITM_CATEGORY )
WHERE b2.BATCH_ID='BTC0002' AND b1.BATCH_ID='BTC0001'
/* This section retrieves all NEW records */
SELECT 'A' as FLAG, CHAIN_CODE, UPC, ITM_CODE, ITM_CATEGORY
FROM UPCXREF_BATCH
WHERE BATCH_ID='BTC0002'
AND (CHAIN_CODE NOT IN (SELECT CHAIN_CODE FROM UPCXREF_BATCH WHERE BATCH_ID='BTC0001')
OR UPC NOT IN (SELECT UPC FROM UPCXREF_BATCH WHERE BATCH_ID='BTC0001'))
here was my attempt to get deleted records which looks like it makes sense but isnt working
Code:
SELECT 'D' as FLAG, CHAIN_CODE, UPC, ITM_CODE, ITM_CATEGORY
FROM UPCXREF_BATCH
WHERE BATCH_ID='BTC0001'
AND CHAIN_CODE NOT IN (SELECT CHAIN_CODE FROM UPCXREF_BATCH WHERE BATCH_ID='BTC0002')
AND UPC NOT IN (SELECT UPC FROM UPCXREF_BATCH WHERE BATCH_ID='BTC0002')
here batch 'BTC0001' is the older set of records that already existed and batch 'BTC0002' is the new set we just inserted into the table. am i missing something else?

How do I go about if I want to capture a fresh copy of the stored procedure?

I am using SQL Server 2012 Express.
I am doing performance tuning of SP/Query in Dev-Test environment.
I found that SQL Server caches plan between successive executions.
So if I test/execute SP 10 times, after 1st or 2nd execution, SQL server will pull-up plan-info from CACHE...Not from SQL SERVER Or Database...
Means i am not getting correct answer...
I found this 2 commands:
DBCC FREEPROCCACHE
DBCC DROPCLEANBUFFERS
But they say that executing above command might interfere/bother other people executing other query/sp on this server.
They also say that: Freeing the plan cache causes, for example, a stored procedure to be recompiled instead of reused from the cache. This can cause a sudden, temporary decrease in query performance.
Part of query was using Dynamic-SQL executed with EXEC command.
I replaced that with SP_EXECUTESQL.
How can I start testing of each SP-run with Fresh/Blank CACHE ?

Hello Everyone,
When i checked the machine this morning i saw that MS DTC service was stopped and when did start it, it was good for a sec or two then it stopped auto matically i was not sure waht was goin on...
Then i checked the Eventviewer, it said the log file is full i tried out to find ms dtc log reset or increase the size but could not find out..where can i find this.
One more thing what is the purpose of DTC, i know in sql 6.5 we have everything in enterprize manager but i can't see the same either in 7.0 or 2000 is the name changed or is it linked to some other source.
Like linked server , does this depend on MS DTC..how and what is the basic purpose of this..kindly tell me what i should do now...
I got to fix it asap..big hassle..
Thanks in advance,
Kavitha

Is there a way I can perform an update on a table, but ignore thetrigger (or disable the trigger) each time I run a particular updatescript from a DTS package?I would like subsequent DTS steps to use the trigger except for my lastupdate statement. Is this possible?Thanks,Frank*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***

When I run my stored proceure from QA,I'm getting a whole buch of errors raised inside the third party one.Is there any way I could just ignore them, so that if I run my SP fromQA, only errors from my code, if any, show up?TIA
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,I'm trying to upload a large number of log entries currently stored astext files into a database table using bcp. For a few rows I get a"right truncation" error and the offending rows are not uploaded to thetable.I don't want to increase the size of the table varchar fields becauseit's only about a dozen out of almost million rows that have thisproblem ... I want to provide an override - i.e. if a row will resultin truncated data, truncate but still bulk copy the offending row. Isthat possible?I couldn't find such an option in the documentation.Any help is greatly appreciated.Thanks,Mudassir Latif
View 2 Replies View RelatedIs there a way to make a SP ignore an error?e.g. I'm looping through each database on a server, checking of a tableexists then selecting a value from that table. Now I have a database putonto the server where the table exists but all column names aredifferent, my SP is not interested in this database so when it errorswith invalid column name I want it to move onto the next databse and notdisplay any error message.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI'm writing a store procedure to accept search strings from user on my site. Currently, this is what I have.
Code Snippet
@schoolID int = NULL,
@scholarship varchar(250) = NULL,
@major varchar(250) = NULL,
@requirement varchar(250) = NULL
--@debug bit = 0
AS
BEGIN
-- SET NOCOUNT ON added to prevent extra result sets from
-- interfering with SELECT statements.
SET NOCOUNT ON;
SELECT * FROM [scholarship]
WHERE ([sectionID] = @schoolID OR @schoolID IS NULL)
AND ([schlrPrefix] LIKE '%' + @scholarship + '%' OR [schlrName] LIKE '%' + @scholarship + '%' OR [schlrSufix] LIKE '%' + @scholarship + '%' OR @scholarship IS NULL )
AND ([Specification] LIKE '%' + @major + '%' OR @major IS NULL )
AND ([reqr1] LIKE '%' + @requirement + '%' OR [reqr2] LIKE '%' + @requirement + '%' OR [reqr3] LIKE '%' + @requirement + '%' OR [reqr4] LIKE '%' + @requirement + '%' OR [reqr5] LIKE '%' + @requirement + '%' OR @requirement IS NULL )
The problem is, somtimes the search doesn't work if there is a space behind or infront of the search string. I wonder if there is away to ignore any spaces and go right into whatever character comes next or after. If so, how do I implement that?
Hi,
We are performing a SQL 2005 SP1 upgrade from SQL 2000 on our Windows 2003 SP1 Standard Edition.
When we run the upgrade, we got a error "Upgrade Advisor Return -1" as a pop-up window.
When we run the Upgrade Advisor separately, we get this error :
===================================
Common Language Runtime detected an invalid program.

We are in a lost for solutions. We do hope to hear from anyone asap...
Greatly appreciated for any kind assistance.
Thanks.
