Am very new to MS SQL adminstration Can anybody help me out how to work on Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine (MSDE 2000) Release A just for the practice.
The activity which am going to workout on MSDE is below.
How to install SQL(on XP) How the layout will be(like if i insall MSDE what are all Application will be and how they depends on each other) How to create/delete tables if so, how can we do it either by GUI or CUI
I cannot register, from my W98 workstation, an instance of SQL 2000. I just installed SQL2000 (evaluation edition) on my server. Previous to my install I had MSDE installed on the server and successfully registered it from my W98 workstation. When I installed the SQL2000 it recognized there was already a version of SQL Server (MSDE) on the server and said that was the default. Hense, I installed the SQL 2000 as an instance using the format servernameinstance. I can see both of them on the server EM with no problem--I just can't register the SQL 2000 instance from my workstation. When asked for the server name I use the format servernameinstance as it appears in the EM on the server. However, I get the error that the server does not exist or access is denied.? What could I be overlooking? Any help would be much appreciated.
Will any application developed against SQL Server 2000 Developer Edition work on an identical platform with only MSDE 2000 installed? I understand there's a concurrency limit with MSDE 2000 of around 25 (and there's no GUI) but apart from that, are there any aspects of SQL Server 2000 functionality (from the .NET applicaiton code's point of view) that are "disabled" in MSDE 2000?
Trying to transfer databases from MSDE to SQL. When I use SQLEnterprise Manager - DTS - import or export, it works for the firstdatabase, but then fails for the others. I select the to and fromdatabases using DTS - Import - 'MS OLE DB Provider for SQL Server',then select 'Copy objects and data between SQL Servers'. It failswith the generic error message: 'Copy objects failed', nothingfurther. I tried to just copy data, and it doesn't work totally. Ontwo databases, it said that it copied everything, but when I go inunder Enterprise manager, some of the tables are incomplete, i.e. nodata, table shows up in the list, but if you try to look at it, itsays that it is missing or empty. Also, one table was not evencopied. In the other two cases, I get errors, does not copy alltables. I get errors, like insert fails, but the column it referencesfor the table does not even exist in that table. Any suggestionswould be appreciated.
I am creating an install program and I'm wondering if there is a difference between SQL Server 2000 and MSDE 2000? Do they have different entries in the Registry?
From the documentation that I've read it seems as if they are one and the same.
However, if someone knows how to differentiate between them in the Registry it would be greatly appreciated.
We are running 3 versions of SQL - 6.5, 7.0, and now 2000. I have all three versions installed on my PC and run Enterprise Manager to manage the 2000 and 7.0 servers. The one 7.0 server is registered fine. When I try to register the other 7.0 server I get the following message -
(SQL DMO) SQL Server xxxx must be upgraded to version 7.0 or later.
This same server is registered through Enterprise Manager on another PC running the 3 versions of SQL and both SQL 7.0 servers work fine on that Enterprise Manager installation.
Any suggestions as to what I need to do to be able to register the 7.0 server on the Enterprise Manager running on my PC?
My office computer just had Vista installed on it and I have now encountered a problem in SQL Server 2000 sp4. (Yes, I know it's old and has comparability issues with Vista, but I don't have the option to upgrade at this point.) I have two servers to register. One works fine, but the other won't register and returns the error "SQL Server does not exist or access denied. ConnectionOpen (Connect())". I was able to register this one server that isn't working while previously running XP on my office computer and even as a test on another server running Windows Server 2003. This leads me to believe the problem is isolated with my installation on Vista and not with any permissions, etc. I have been scouring different forums looking for a fix for this, but have come up empty handed. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this problem?
When Trying to register a SQL Server using Windows Authentication, I get the following error:
Login failed for user '(null)'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.
When I edit the properties and make it SQL Authentication, it works fine. The SQL Server Service is starting up with a domain user account. If that makes any difference. Funny thing is, that my co-worker, can register the SQL Server in his Enterprise Manager using Windows Authentication. We are both Domain Admins and members of the servers local admin group. So, I'm not sure what to do now.
I checked under Security, Logins...and neither of us are listed under there.
I am about to setup an application server. This app will generate reports and instead of just having a HTML page up, I am considering running dotnetnuke type portal to offer the userbase a better interface for the reports, info, announcement, etc.
Server isn't too bad (2x1.7Ghz Xeon I think, 2GIG RAM) type of setup (may be little more or less). App doesn't require as much resources, but we are planning for the future )
While I have some resource to play with, I also need to make sure I don't load much that may impact the application performance. In my experience, SQL Server 2000 will take a lot of resources even when not used as much. So I am considering MSDE.
I am curious however, WHAT ARE THE MAIN DIFFERENCES BETWEEN SQL 2000 Server Vs MSDE 2000 ?
Beside no Client tool and mostly command line specific command, what else there to convince that I should go for server vs desktop engine?
Now our company has Enterprise license for SQL, so I am not worried about the cost (well a little maybe), but mostly wondering about performance.
If you think of any reason why I go to SQL Server 2000 over MSDE, please let me. Otherwise, I think MSDE in this case is the appropriate RDBMS to go for.
Hello all, im new here and do not have no experience with sql. I am trying to install a tax software that I need to run my little business. When I install it gets to a popint that it asks me for my SQL server usernme and password. I remember doing this last year and I reinstalled MSDE and set up a username and password. I seem to not remember what I used, i tried all that I would have but can not get past that step. I remember adding some lines in the setup,ini file when I installed it last year. Now I can go ahead and reinstall it again and set up a new one, but will the uninstalling and reinstalling of MSDE affect my previous software from last year? Its the same software but I need this years installed. I have tried using sa as the username and a blank password, with a password and others that I have read up on, still cant log on. Keep getting worng credential screen. Is there a way to get that info, i doubt it or else it would not be secure, or can I just simply reinstall MSDE?
I'm trying to install this application but i get an errorSetup failed to configure the server. Refer to the server error logs and setup error logs for more information.I'm running Windows XP SP2.Could my SP2 be causing me problems considering I successfully installed it previously.Many thanks
I am not sure if this is the right forum, I already had some one freakout on me in another forum about posting in the wrong place.
Anyway: I would like to upgrade a machine from SQL 7 to MSDE 2000. I would like to keep the existing database from Altiris Deployment solutions intact. Is this upgrade possible?
This is my first time using SQL. I installed MSDE 2000 on my desktop and after restarting my PC I see an icon in the startup area MSSQLServer with the server being my T-Tag #.
I am trying to upsize my Access DB to Sqlserver. I am still confused as to where does this server reside? How does this whole thing work?
Also, when I tried to upsize my db I got an overflow error.
I have a client that has a server running Windows 2000 Server. anothercompany has installed MSDE (version unknown) on this server. I need toinstall SQL 2000 on the same server. Will the two coexist peacefully?TiaCruznOz*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!
I only have Framework installed on my machine, and I also installed MSDE 2000 Rel. A, using the following command: C:MSDERelAsetup.exe SAPWD="myPass" INSTANCENAME="myXP"
I can see that the service for this app is running. Though, I could not connect to it using oSql command like the following: osql -S(local)myXP -E or osql -S(local)myXP -Usa, and supply the password "myPass".
The message was: [DBMSLPCN]SQL Server does not exist or access denied. [DBMSLPCN]ConnectionOpen (Connect()).
I installed MSDE2000 and i have problem: In SQL Server Service manager i do not see connection but in MS Visual Studio .NET i see the connection and i can make tables my setup string was: C:MSDERelAsetup SAPWD="Vedran" instancename="VT"
I have a customer with Office 2000 and uses Access 2000. I normally use SQL/7, but for this job would it be save to use MSDE on the web site so the customer can upload and download the MSDE file for product information? I use SQL/7 for the backend. Please advise.
Hi all,I just got SQL Server 2000, but I already have MSDE installed. Is there anyreason I would want to keep MSDE around on my computer if I install SQLServer 2000? I use MS Visual Studio 2002 on Windows XP SP2, in case itmakes any difference. I intend to deinstall MSDE before installing SQLServer 2000, but I get the impression from a few posts that some people haveboth installed and I'm not sure why that would be done. What functionalityis in MSDE that is not in SQL Server 2000?Thanks for answering.--Diana

Hi everyone,In using the SQL Server Database Wizard in Access 2000 to create a newaccess project, I get two consecutive error messages and then the wizardshuts down. The first, which apprears immediately after starting the wizardis a message box stating something like "the property value is too large".After clicking through and filling out the values in the connection anddatabase dialog, I get a second dialog box with the message "Overflow" andthe wizard terminates.My operating system is Windows 2000 Professional with Access 2000 and MSDE2000.Does anyone have any thoughts about what might be causing these errors?Thanks in advance.
I try applying the SP 4 on the default instance of the msde 2000 and when it stops after a minute generates the log and says it was successful but no upgrade is done. I use the following command setup /upgradesp sqlrun SECURITYMODE=SQL BLANKSAPWD=1 DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=0 /L*v C:MSDELog.log
On the same machine I has installed also SQLExpress.
I stop the sql services before issuing the command.
I have a MSDE 2000 installation running, already patched to SP3. Instancename is "STO". I've downloaded SQL2000.MSDE-KB884525-SP4-X86-ENU.exe and extracted the archive to C:SQL2KSP4.
After starting setup from the command prompt with "setup /upgradesp sqlrun DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=0 /L*V C:MSDELog.log" i get a message box, telling me "The product is not installed". This happens even if I specify the exact instancename and supply the sa user and pwd!
