I have installed MSDE2000 (name: mypcsql2000, port 1433) and sql2005 Express (mypcsql2005, port 1434) on my WinXP. I'm developing some application and I need to test both server.
It has worked fine about 1 year, but last month i got error message.
When i'm trying to connect to SQL2005 from my application or import data from Excel, i get error message: [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Invalid Connection()).]Invalid connection.
I can access SQL2005 with Management Studio or cmd line (sqlcmd). But not with Excel (or with my application).
MSDE2000 works fine, i haven't any problems.
Last weekend I have reinstalled my WinXP and also MSDE2000, SQL2005 Express. Worked fine, but when turn on automatic updates ON and afterwards installed latest updates, the problem is here again...
This may be a stupid newbie question, but being that I'm not a DBA I'm going to ask it anyway.
We discovered a problem with a clients server (Windows 2003 SBS) when we tried to install Veritas Backup Exec. Backup Exec requires an instance of either SQLMSDE or full SQL. This server has full SQL 2000 sp3a installed on it with a working account application. When backup exec trys to create it's instance it fails.
Investigating further...when I go into Enterprise Manager (logged in as Domain Admin) I get an error when I select the local server.
I.E. "A connection could not be established to (LOCAL). Reason: Data source name not found and no default driver specified. Please verify SQL Server is running and check your SQL Server registration properties. blah blah blah.
Okay the server is running. The accounting application (client/server) is still working. I right click on the server and select "New Server Registration" for the field "server" I click the browse button and the "Active Servers" box is empty..:shocked:
I went to check the "Data Sources" under drivers, that field is blank. (no drivers installed). I downloaded MS's component checker and it says "MDAC 2.8 on Windows server 2003 sp1" is installed.
At this point I have exhausted my knowledge of MS-SQL server. My goal is to get BackupExec installed and NOT break the existing accounting application.
Hi,I'm installing SQL2000 on a new cluster server.I selected a 'custom installation' and was presented with a'Collation settings' screen.I need it to be SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS collationas I will be restoring databases with this collation.What should I choose from the 'Collation designator' and 'SQLCollations' box.Is it 'Dictionary order, case-insensitive, for use with 1252characters'?What will be the default? Will it be the same default as for the'typical' installation?Thanks

I was told that SQL2000 SP4 needs to install prior to installing SP2 for windows 2003 server. Is that true? What issues I will encounter if the installation is done the other way around? Thanks for any insights
Hi, though i've been using sql server 2000 developer edition for awhile, I guess i overlooked the fact that the full-text search tool was never installed and i never needed it until now. Anyway, tried installing it today and get this error:
Installation of Microsoft Full-Text Search Engine Package Failed (-2147220991) 0x80040201 An event was unable to invoke any of the subsribers
I have no idea what this means - can you help me to get this installed correctly? I did just install service pack 4, and i tried reinstalling the components, tried rebuilding the registery of the current instance, and even tried creating a new instance with hopes that the new instance would install the full-text component - which it did not.
Any suggestions? I just completely uninstalled sql2000 and did a full-reinstallation and still it wont let me install the full-text search engine component - i check the checkbox in the installation wizard and then it gives me the same error as above. Thanks ahead!

Is it possible to install sql server enterprise edition on an xp machine (home or professional)? I tried both (w/sp2) and it said it can only be run as a client.
When SQL05dev is installed a SQL05 version of Visual Studio (SQL05-VS) is also installed (called the €œSQL Server Business Intelligence Development Studio€?). The SQL05-VS installs files into a €œC:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90ToolsinnVSShellCommon7IDE€? directory (and other directories - not described here).
When the full version VS05pro is installed it installs/uses files in a €œC:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDE€? directory.
The number of files in these two directories is different €“ the directory for VS05pro has (of course) many many more files than the directory for SQL05-VS. On the surface this seems ok since the install of VS05pro should supersede the install of the SQL05-VS and when VS05 is started it utilizes the files from the VS05pro directory and picks up the functions from the SQL05-VS (like SSIS, SSAS, SSRS and such).
But what about the SQL05-VS Common7/IDE directory? In this directory are 64 files that exist in both directores (556 files are not found in the VS05pro Common7/IDE directory). Additionally, there are 10 files that have different versions (mostly having to do with SQL-CE) €“ newer versions are in the SQL05-VS directory.
I€™m confused. Is Microsoft going to support revision changes (Service Packs and such) to both directories? I suppose so, but this introduces possible versioning problems when SQL is updated but VS is not or VS is updated but SQL is not.
I guess I do not understand the rational for not maintaining a single VS directory structure and the problems that this creates. Microsoft is utilizing VS as the IDE for SQL but to not have a really good matching installation layout with the full version of VS is wacky €“ to say the least. Maybe M$ considers maintaing the versions of 64 files to be unimportant for the correct functioning of VS???
Is Installing SQL05dev and VS05pro on the same machine supported?
When installing service pack 2 the installation would not allow me to select ssis or tools. ssis works as long as you are access the machine using a 32 bit remote client however we get the following error when trying to use ssis on the 64 bit machine. How can I fix this problem without reinstalling SQL server?
Error loading type library/DLL. Connect to SSIS Service on machine "<computer_name>" failed:
Think this problem was cuased by installing the service pack 1 hotfixes in the wrong order?
None of the information I have found about this issue has help.
Hi All, I have successfully installed MSSQL server 2005 on virtual machine running on XPSP2. No error messages were shown durring the installation. Still I do not see it working at all. There are no services insltalled for the SQL Server and it can not be accessed by any other applications. If anyone has an idea why this is happening, please help?!
Hi, i have sql server 2005 standard installed on my machine. I want to work on express edition and learn about it but on the installation its gets stuck because a higher version is installed. If the express version is free why cant have both versions installed on my machine. Thank you.
Given than once SQL Server 2005 is installed, SQL Server Studio has to be used instead of Enterprise manager, can both SQL 2000 and 2005 be used on the same machine, be it development or production? (The second one to be installed probably would be a named instance.) Any experiance of doing this or a pointer to a Microsoft recommendation would be appreciated.
I'm trying to install the common components for SQL 2005 on a server that already has Reporting Services 2005 installed on it. It keeps comng up with an error: "To change an existing instance of Microsoft SQL Server 2005 to a different edition of SQL Server 2005, you must run SQL Server 2005 Setup from the command prompt and include the SKUUPGRADE=1 parameter."
The Reporting Services install has had SP2 applied to it, would that be what is messing up the install?
I have very little experience with SQL so any info would be helpful.
While I am trying to install SQL server 2005 I get the following message - "Machine does not have a product that matches the installation package". The installation does not occur.
I am using Windows 2000 Professional SP4 and using 32 bit installer - SQLServer2005SP2-KB921896-x86-ENU.exe
We have a combined network with some users on the old Windows NT 4.0 network and others on the new Windows 2003 servers using Active Directory. Will my users on the old WinNT4.0 domain have issues accessing / running reports from Report Manager?
Does anyone know what would cause SQL MAil or Exchange to save all messages and some 1K att*.txt files to the WINNT directory? This is filling up the hard drive on a production system so it's kind of urgent.
Hello!, I'm trying to connect from a local server to a remote server using the OPENROWSET function (SQL 2000).
I'm having problems with the authentication, if I put a "SQL" user, everything goes Ok, but if I change the SQL user for a windows NT user, I get the error "login failed for user 'xx'"
For example, this query works fine:
SELECT a.* FROM OPENROWSET('SQLOLEDB','myserver';'sqluser';'mypassword', 'SELECT * FROM myDataBase.dbo.myTable') AS a
But if I try WinNT login, it fails...
SELECT a.* FROM OPENROWSET('SQLOLEDB','myserver';'MyDomainMyWinNTUser';'ThePassword', 'SELECT * FROM myDataBase.dbo.myTable') AS a

Hi to everyone, I'm facing a problem that drives me crazy. I've a web application that has the following problem. When I test the application on my developement machine all runs fine, but when I put into production server there is a problem in connection pooling. Look at the following image, the blue line is the number of connection in the pool and the violet line is the number of connection reclaimed. From the image it is clear that connection are returned on the pool only in block, maybe when the garbage collection pass and reclaim the object. The strange thing is that on my developement machine all is good, and also I'm using Enterprise Library and the connection are managed internally.- Thanks to everyone for any help.
Hullo all I have two machines, One is a standalone machine and the other is on a domain network. How can I run a stored procedure/job on the standalone machine from the domain machine ? running the procedure as a Domain user results in a failed job/stored proc. also creating an sql login and attempting to run it as that user also fails. How can I solve this problem ? please e-mail me at wayde@sunnygrp.com if you have any thoughts...
