Running SQL 6.5 And SQL 2000 As 2 Instances
Feb 9, 2001
Hi all
We are planning to upgrade vom SQL 6.5 to SQL 2000 and SMS 1.2 to SMS 2.0. We want to first migrate SMS 1.2 to 2.0 with the SQL 6.5 database. Afterwards we want to install SQL 2000 as a second instance on the sql 6.5 server and migrate from there our databases. Is this the best way to do this? Does anybody have experience with running two instances of different SQL-Versions on one server? and what kind of trouble can I expect to run into?
Any tips & tricks are welcome
Thanx

I had a server with SQL Server 7.0
I installed a named instance of SQL Server 2000 and then i passed all my DB
of the 7.0 instance to the 2000 instance.
Then i removed the 7.0 instance, that was the default instance.
So at the moment there is only the 2000 version, but it isn't the default
instance
Can the 2000 instance become the default instance? (So that clients can
connect to it simply through computer name, and not creating an alias)
thanks

A small question which may be stupid.
In Management Studio Express, one instance of Sql Express is running, with User Instances. This in indicated by a green circle with a white arrow head.
At the same time I'm connected to an instance of Sql Express on a Small Business Server. This server instance just has a white circle, but is also running. Is this normal.?

We have a DTS package that is submitted every minute by a SQL Agent job (2000). We see instances where before the first job is completed, the second one starts running.
Has anyone encountered this type of behavior before?

Hello,
I want to enumerate all the RUNNING SQL instances[in a mixed env where SQL 2000 and SQL2005 are deployed] using SQL DMO.
But any of the following methods would not help
ListAvailableSQLServers Method
ListInstalledInstances Method
because they list all the installed instances and while my intent is getting only the running instances.
Is there any other direct API ? Pls advise.
Regards,
Velu

In my application code I am trying to invoke multiple threads in which each thread is loading an instance of the same SSIS package and would initialize the package variables with different values and execute the different instances in parallel. In each thread - after the package execution has completed successfully - I read that instance's SSIS package variables to get result information from that Instance run.
When I load the same package in different thread using LoadFromSqlServer() method
- does the code create multiple instances of the SSIS package and load the distinct instances in each of the thread
- Will the Package Execution ID be different for the different instances?
- Are the package level variables instance safe?

I have a website running under Windows Server 2003 which I am trying to deploy Reportin Services to using a custom security extension using Forms authentication. There is also another website which is just a Report Server running on this IIS 6.
On my development machine, XP with IIS 5.1, the Website with Reporting Services using forms authentication works fine, shares cookies for authentication and all that jazz. but trying to configure a second instance of Reporting Services on Server 2003 is not behaving.
Is there some trickery or details involved with running two instances of Reporting Services?
Also in the Configure Report Server tool it is failing and so not initializing on the last step of the Database Setup
Setting Connection Info for Reporting Server

I am running multiple instance of the same application. This application is connecting to the database and running stored procedures using ADODB (all code examples are taken from msado15).
The problem is that somehow these two applications are sharing something either with the connection or commands.
For instance if the two instances are in the following function at the same time then they both thow an SEH exception:
Code Snippet
inline _RecordsetPtr Command15::Execute ( VARIANT * RecordsAffected, VARIANT * Parameters, long Options ) {
struct _Recordset * _result = 0;
HRESULT _hr = raw_Execute(RecordsAffected, Parameters, Options, &_result);
if (FAILED(_hr)) _com_issue_errorex(_hr, this, __uuidof(this));
return _RecordsetPtr(_result, false);
}
The exception that occurs is: "First-chance exception ...: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0x00000068."
And afterwords when they go to release the command an error occurs on
First-chance exception at 0x4de4120c in IpsEngine.exe: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0xcccccccc.
Code Snippet
inline void _bstr_t::Data_t::_Free() throw()
{
if (m_wstr != NULL) {
::SysFreeString(m_wstr);
}
if (m_str != NULL) {
delete [] m_str;
}
}
This is being called from.
Code Snippet
inline void Command15::PutRefActiveConnection ( struct _Connection * ppvObject ) {
HRESULT _hr = putref_ActiveConnection(ppvObject);
if (FAILED(_hr)) _com_issue_errorex(_hr, this, __uuidof(this));
}
The exception that occurs: First-chance exception at ...: 0xC0000005: Access violation reading location 0xcccccccc.
Similarly when one instance releases a command using
Code Snippet
inline void Command15::PutRefActiveConnection ( struct _Connection * ppvObject ) {
HRESULT _hr = putref_ActiveConnection(ppvObject);
if (FAILED(_hr)) _com_issue_errorex(_hr, this, __uuidof(this));
}
The second instance of the application fails when running the command at the exact same time.
Code Snippet
inline _RecordsetPtr Command15::Execute ( VARIANT * RecordsAffected, VARIANT * Parameters, long Options ) {
struct _Recordset * _result = 0;
HRESULT _hr = raw_Execute(RecordsAffected, Parameters, Options, &_result);
if (FAILED(_hr)) _com_issue_errorex(_hr, this, __uuidof(this));
return _RecordsetPtr(_result, false);
}
The command and connections are not static and there should be completely seperate instances of these for each instance of the application. Does anybody know why this may be happening. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

My client has a server running MS 2003 Server for Smal Business Server, and it has SQL Server Express 2005 installed (I believe it is installed 3 times, as part of SharePoint, Veritas Backup Exec and ACT! applications).
I am trying to implement an application that uses SQL Server 2000, but the Server 2003 SBS does not support that version. So I need to launch an additional instance of SQL Server Exp 2005.
To do so, do I need to download and install SQL Server Express 2005 software again? Or can I just run SQLSVR.exe from an existing instance, but with a different instance name (sqlservr.exe -s<InstanceName>?
The reason I need another instance is that these existing instances limit DDL statements.
I am new to this and compare it to launching MS Word multiple times - you don't need to reinstall Word to run it multiple times.
Is launching from the command line a bad idea - and if it is, what is the better way to ensure that it launches under the local system context a service?
Thanks in advance for any help and insights. It is much appreciated.

I need any information on whether its possible to create more than 16 instances of SQL Server 2000. I know Microsoft says they don't support over 16 but what are the downfalls of doing this? How many could possibly be put on one server?

We have an x86 sql 2000 server with 4GB of RAM, a quadcore Xeon, a RAID 5 drive C, and its utilization is generally low. Typical perfmon counters: CPU < 5%; available Mbytes, 1800; typical disk time 5-10 %; Committed bytes in use < 25%, pagessec near 0.0.
For various reasons I need to install a sql 2005 instance on the same box and both instances will be up and running at the same time.
How, using Perfmon (?), can I determine the max amount of memory to assign to each instance? (It is my understanding that I definitiely need to limit the amount of RAM used by each instance.)
TIA,

Hi,From a previous sys-admin I inherited a a MS-SQL (2000) machine with 3instances. It is a nice machine with 4 Gb of memory but the memory allocationis very weird:Instance A: 1400MbInstance B: 1000MbInstance C: 80Mb (!)Instance C is performing badly under a bit of pressure which seems not strangeconsidering these allocations.With that in mind, is there a way to check and re-allocate memory? I'd like tosee if the instances really need these amounts of memory and if not, to movesome over to other instances.Thanks!Dries Bessels

Hi,
We have a new failover cluster (Windows 2003 SP1, Microsoft SQL 2000 SP4) with each node of the cluster hosting 7 SQL Server instances in a 2-node active-active configuration connected to a SAN. We are planning to move some SQL Server Instances(from existing stand-alone servers) into this Cluster. Any insight into the process of moving SQL Servers into the cluster would be highly appreciated.
Best Regards,

I have the following problem;
I fully understand that to connect to a named instance of SQL Server you need to use the ServerNameSQLInstanceName. The problem I have is that I have a SQL Server in a different zone. I can connect to the Default instance by IP Address or the ServerName.zone.domain.org. (e.g. MySQLServer.zone1.mydomain.org).
However, the same thing does not work for the Named Instance. It seems to be named instance or nothing.
How can I connect to this named instance across network zones?:S

We are having all kinds of issues with named instances for SQL 2000.
I am trying to connect to a SQL Server 2000 named instance on a different subnet and get an error. I cannot connect with ODBC or our web app.
I am using the port number for the alias that I created in the SQL Client Utility. We can connect to default instances without a problem, but not the named instances.
The SQL Server is 2000 build 2040 (Service pack 4 with a hot fix.) The server is listening on port 1223. In the ODBC connection I click on the Network Config and create an alias with the named instance such as SQLVSNSQLNI and specify port 1223. I have also tried adding the port to the connection string in the ASP include file (SQLVSNSQLNI,1223). If I do the same thing with a default instance on the network, both the app and ODBC work fine. It is only when I use a named instance.
Very frustrated. Thanks for any help you can provide

I am trying to install SQL2K5 on my machine where I already have SQL2K installed.
The best I have managed to achieve is to get SQL2K5 EM looking at my SQL2K databases.
Do I need to uninstall SQL2K before installing SQL2K?
Depending on what combo of SQL I have installed my options on SQL2K install vary.
I am a bit lost at this point.
Anyone know a link to a good white paper type doc that guides me through an install on the same machine.
Thanks In Advance

We currently have multiple instances of MS Sql 2000 and MS SQL 2005 installed on servers. When at other locations that uses different subnets only the default instance is available, published, broadcasted, selectable.
We have TCPIP and name pipes enabled for all instances. This seems to be a common problem for all locations.

I am working on a site's SQL Server 2000 database on a W2k3 machine . I went into Enterprise Manager and saw that their database resides on a named instance. I did not see the default instance listed so I registered that using windows authentication. I noticed that the default instance had a user database that had the same name as the user database on the named instance that I was to work on. I looked at the properties of the databases and saw that on both the default and named instances of SQL Server that the Data Files and Log Files for the user database point to the same location.
Is this a problem? Can anyone see any issues with this? Does this mean that someone can simply connect to the named or the default instance of the SQL Server and connect to the same database?

Hi,
We have (after several weeks of testing in all kind of environments) send out a new version of our application to several of our customers. Within days problems where drippin in; After looking for the problem on various customer situations we found a problem which I think is rather disturbing and very odd. I'll describe the situation, on which we finally managed to recreate the problem, here.
In my problem I use the following configuration:
Windows 2003 (standard edition) AD network with 2 domain controllers, multiple Windows XP workstations, some without SQL instances, some with SQL 2000 instances, some with SQL 2005 instances and even one with SQL 7 running.
All run a 32 bit OS.
Tools to reproduce:
ListSQLSvr application (found on SQLDev.net) to enumerate the instances.
Problem description:
--------------------------------------------------
I am running the machine called DEV001, which has SQL 2000 (instancename DRUMIS) and SQL 7.0 (has no instancename so this is the root instance) installed.
In any 'normal' situation all the runnings SQL instances are visible on the network like this:
Code Block
C:>listsqlsvr -X
(local);Clustered:No;Version:7.00.623
ADM002DRUMIS;Clustered:No;Version:8.00.194
DEV001DRUMIS
DEV001DRUMIS;Clustered:No;Version:8.00.194
DEV002DRUMIS;Clustered:No;Version:8.00.194
DEV002EXPRESS;Clustered:No;Version:9.00.3042.00
DEV002EXPRESS
INSADBACKOFFICEDRUMIS;Clustered:No;Version:8.00.194
INSADBACKOFFICEEXACT;Clustered:No;Version:9.00.3042.00
INSADOFFICEWSUS;Clustered:No;Version:8.00.194
SUP001DRUMIS;Clustered:No;Version:8.00.194
When I turn the SQL 2005 Browser service off on the machine called DEV002 the list looks like:
Code Block
C:>listsqlsvr -X
(local);Clustered:No;Version:7.00.623
ADM002DRUMIS;Clustered:No;Version:8.00.194
DEV001DRUMIS;Clustered:No;Version:8.00.194
DEV001DRUMIS
DEV002
DEV002EXPRESS
DEV004DRUMIS;Clustered:No;Version:9.00.3042.00
INSADBACKOFFICEDRUMIS;Clustered:No;Version:8.00.194
INSADBACKOFFICEEXACT;Clustered:No;Version:9.00.3042.00
INSADOFFICEWSUS;Clustered:No;Version:8.00.194
SUP001DRUMIS;Clustered:No;Version:8.00.194
Notice that the browser service might be off on DEV002, you can still see the EXPRESS instance and a new root instance has appeared (though it doesn't exist!)??
After restarting the Browser service all is OK again.
When I turn on Hide Server in the SQL 2000 TCP/IP properties (or turn it on in the registry [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftMicrosoft SQL ServerDRUMISMSSQLServerSuperSocketNetLibTcp] "TcpHideFlag"=dword:00000001) on the DEV002 computer something real scary is happening..
The list looks as follows:
Code Block
C:listsqlsvr -X
(local)
ADM002
DEV001
DEV002
DEV004
INSADBACKOFFICE
INSADOFFICE
SUP001
When someone has entered a database (for example the backoffice database on INSADBACKOFFICEEXACT) the list looks as follows (for a short moment; 5 secs or so):
Code Block
C:listsqlsvr -X
(local)
ADM002
DEV001
DEV002
DEV004
INSADBACKOFFICEDEVELOP;Clustered:No;Version:8.00.194
INSADBACKOFFICEDRUMIS;Clustered:No;Version:8.00.194
INSADBACKOFFICEEXACT;Clustered:No;Version:9.00.3042.00
INSADOFFICE
SUP001
Notice now that ALL instances are gone and no extended information is available. In the Query Analyser and in the SQL Management Studio when browsing you'll see this as well!
When someone is accessing a database instance it appears for a few seconds again.
Since our installation and applications rely on selecting a existing instance it will fail in the above situations (or at least not showing all available instances).
In my opinion this is a bug somewhere!
Note that even when the SQL Services are stopped on DEV002 (leaving the Browser service running) it still seems to block out ALL instance on the ENTIRE network!
I don't mind that one INSTANCE or even the entire MACHINE is hidden from the network, but ALL instances on ALL machines??
And the SQL Browser issue also worries me a bit since it does not stop the possibily to browse the SQL instances; it removes the SQL2000 instances but adds a root instance which doesn't even exist! Also the extended info is stripped.
Can anyone help me solve this/advise?
Also mind that in any situation there might run a lot of computers with a lot of SQL instances and I cannot tell our customers to find which machine has the SQL TCP/IP properties set to Hide...
It even seems that in some situations SBS 2003 does the hiding automatically on Install? And if so, when and why?

We have 10+ MSDE 2000 installations on the same network. Each install has a named instance and the
machines connect to eachother via VB application. We have a couple SQL 2000 Standard boxes and a SQL 2005
box all running on the same network with no issues. The problem we have recently run into is with a SQL
Express box. When the box is on the network OSQL stops finding the MSDE 2000 named instances on the
network and only the SQL Express named instance appears in the list. The second the SQL Express box is removed
from the network the named instances are visible. I monitored the UDP traffic and suspect there is an issue with the response from SQL Express to OSQL. Can't find any issues for this problem only report I found is if MSDE and Express are on the same machine.

Hi all,I just asked some people to help me out and phone microsoft with thefollowing information, kindly they refused unless we setup a supportcontract with them first, for pre-sales information. (That really doesnot sound like good business sense to me - anyway here is our problem,if anyone could help thanks)."To tell and ask microsoft:We will be setting up a microsoft sql server 2000 instance running on awindows 2003 server.1) We need to check this can run alongside a microsoft 2003 sql server(either workgroup or standard edition), on the same machine. Are thereany .dll clashes if we do this? If there are can we run SQL Server2000, in a virtual machine running windows 2000 professional. (I have alicenced copy we can use for this).2) If we run one instance of 2000, and one of 2003 of the sql servers,can one use the processor licence model, and one use the CAL licencemodel."Thanks for any help, and any idea why they actually force you to usenews groups for pre-sales information?David

Has anyone been able to run a DTS package from DOS. When I execute the dtsrun command it fires the process off in another Dos session and quickly closes. I know that SQL 7.0 worked ok. When it runs from dos it tell you when each step runs successfully or fails. I am Running Windows 2000 Server SP2 and SQL 2000 SP1. So the question is, is there any way to run the dtsrun utility from dos so you can see what is going on?
Any help would be appreicated!
