Am currently on holiday and mistakenly broke my laptop.
I have been searching MS website to download the 180 day trial of MS SQL 2005 (Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Evaluation Edition)
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=6931fa7f-c094-49a2-a050-2d07993566ec&displaylang=en

Any pointers pls

Ehi
I am download new Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Evaluation Edition.. but how run it?
SQL Server Management is not enough!
Hi!
I download Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Evaluation Edition (Self-extracting executables: X86 Executable ) from Microsoft site but when I try to unpack it the unpack program says it is corrupt. I have downloaded this file more than 5 times and still the same problem occurs. Is it only me or other has same problem? Any suggestsion?

I've downloaded the enterprise evaluation copy of sql server 2005, patched it to sp2. I've fired up visual studio 2005 and opened a connection to my local database okay, (I've used windows authenication - though I'm not sure how to check whether I've got SA rights..).
When I open a stored procedure up, the breakpoints options are greyed out.
When I look in control panel/add programs, the version of Visual Studio is "Premier Partner Edition - ENU", if I look in the about of vs: it has installed products of sql server analysis services, integration services and reporting services
Looking on the web it says that I need visual studio 2005 professional to be able to debug sp's but on the features list for Premier Partner Edition, under the debug section it says "SQL"
Can anyone shed some light on this? Or is it the case that the eval copy of sql server 2005 ships with a version of vs2005 that precludes sp debugging !!!

I am currently using SQL Server Enterprise Evaluation which runs out after 6months. When this happens or even sooner I plan to install SQL Server Developer.
My questions is can I copy all the things I develop (databases, cubes, reports,) from enterprise evaluation & import/load them into SQL Developer with no problems? Will everything integrate? Is there any implications?
I'm try to upgrade SQL Server 2005 Evaluation with tuned up and worked merge replication.
- I'm insert disk with licensed SQL Server 2005 Enterprise, start installation - in process, indicate instance for installing, in list of options appears I see option "ugrade"
- All passes fine and go on:
After upgarde I'm get completely broken merge replication!
Moreover, such feeling that certain strange troubles with SQL Agent:
all points context menu in Replication Monotor - disabled and if I try to start replication manually through jobs - too failed - with some error "agent shutdown" !
I'm try to build "clear" situation: install in Virtual PC Windows 2003 Ent SP1, SQL 2005 Eval and setup my test replication and upgrade SQL Server to Enterprise version - and get same trouble too!!!
What the best way to uprade my evaluations sql servers with replication to licensed version SQL Ent?
I upgraded a MS SQL 2005 Enterprise Evaluation/Trial to MS SQL 2005 Standard Edition with 5 User CAL.
I used the following command to upgrade:
start /wait setup.exe ADDLOCAL=SQL_Engine INSTANCENAME=MSSQLSERVER UPGRADE=SQL_Engine SKUUPGRADE=1 PIDKEY=<mykey> /qb
Once complete, "select SERVERPROPERTY('LicenseType')" returns DISABLED, but I expected that it would return PER_SEAT.
Thankfully, after the upgrade it does show EDITION=Standard Edition.
Questions:
1. How do I verify the license installed is the Client Access License of 5?
-- SQL Server 2005 does not seem to have the same SQL Licence control panel as did SQL 2000. It is not listed under Control Panel -> Licensing (only thing listed is 'Windows Server') nor under Administrator Tools -> Licensing.
2. How do you add CALs or change license type in SQL 2005?
-- I was also puzzled that I was not asked during setup of the license mode and/or number of licenses ( I did not get this on a fresh install of SQL 2005 SE either ).
Thanks for any assistance you can provide.

Hi all,
I have downloaded Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Evaluation Edition ISO from the following site and burned it onto a DVD.
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=6931FA7F-C094-49A2-A050-2D07993566EC&displaylang=en
Prior to this I have installed Visual Studio 2005 Professional Edtion. During setup I have selected all the native client components i.e. Management Studio, Business Intelligense Studio. But after the install I am not able to see them under All Programs-> Microsoft SQL Server 2005. On further searching I have come across this link
http://channel9.msdn.com/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=142941
First of all, there is no sqlrun_tools.msi under setup folder of the dvd. And also when I tried to change component from Add/Remove programs and following the instructions as specified on clicking Change Installed components all that I see are: Connectivity Components and Software Development kit.
Could someone tell me how can I install Management Studio/ Business Intelligence Studio seperately? I don't want to go through the process of re-installation.
I am wondering if it is possible to change from SQL Server Enterprise Evaluation Version to Developer Version. The reason is because the Enterprise Evaluation version expires after 180 days. So if I create reports and cubes in Enterprise Evaluation I can import them into Developer Edition right? Should I remove the Enterprise Evaluation version after 180 days or leave it then install Developer Edition?
View 1 Replies View RelatedFor testing purposes only, I'd like to install SQL Server 2000 Evaluation Edition on a server. From what I've read, this edition is a full Enterprise Edition, but it will expire after 160 days. But is it a full edition in the sense that users can connect to it when it's installed on a server, like if it was the Enterprise Edition? So far, I've only had it installed at local computers outside any network.

I m using SQL Server 2000's 120 days evaluation copy for testing my application. The prob i am facing is that whenever the rows in one of the table increses beyond 10K it gets cleared up.
I could not trace the reason for this. Plz some one suggest a possible solution for the same.
Thanks in advance.
I know this is old database but when I download this evaluation from microsoft website, I got problem installing it. First, I unzip it. By default, it is unzip to C:SQLEVAL. Then, I went to install it. I don't which file I should click. So, I double click the autorun file. When I did that, there is a screen, I saw the screen saying "microsoft SQL Server 2000 Evaluation version". Then, I click "SQL Server 2000 Components"
Then, it comes to next page, and I click "Install Database Server". But after I did that, nothing happens! After I click again the same thing all over again, it says "Another instance of setup is already running".
I'm using Window XP Professional. Anyone encounter this problem before? I tried to re-download the file and reinstall but also the same problem. Really need help. Thanks.
I first tried installing the DVD and of course it told me I must use the command prompt installation method to include the line SKUUPGRADE=1. I found good references to this in the following links:
http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2208593&SiteID=1
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms144259.aspx
Below is the command I issued at the command prompt:
start /wait d:serverssetupsetup.exe ADDLOCAL=ALL INSTANCENAME=URHCS63SQL2005DSS UPGRADE=SQL_Engine SKUUPGRADE=1 /qb
My servername is URHCS63 and my instance is SQL2005DSS.
When I execute this command, a installation dialog box opens briefly and then disappears and nothing else happens. Here are the results of the bootstrap log file:
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 9.00.3042.00

Any ideas on why this is not working for me?
We are migration few database from SQL 2000 Enterprise Server to the SQL 2005 Enterprise Server (64 bit-Itanium Server)
Problem :
- The performance difference observer was not much (Just 15-18%)
- The CPU Utilization goes to 100% immediately, when the software login screen appears and it sustains in between 90% to 100%
- Multi-User Access (3 or more concurrent users), the sql performance is tremendously slow.
Steps followed for Migration:
- We have used the backup and restore method to migrate the data from SQL 2000 Enterprise Server to the SQL 2005 Enterprise Server (64 bit-Itanium Server).
- We ran the DBCC DBREINDEX for each affected tables
- We executed the sp_updatestats procedure for all the tables
- Upgraded the DB compatibility version to 90
- Installed the SQL 2005 Enterprise Server (64 bit-Itanium Server) Service pack 2.
One thing that we observed, was the memory usage, on SQL 2000 the sqlservr.exe uses around 1.5 GB where as on the SQL 2005 its just 120 MB.
A normal select query on 2000 Server took 11-12 sec, having 10 lac records, and the same query on 2005 took 1 min (3-5 sec CPU process taken by sqlservr and rest by the Sever Management Studio.
The only differance noted was that on 2000 the entire data was displayed at one go where as in 2005 the data was displayed at the 1st sec, and was filling the rest in the buffer, and to finally display entire data it took 1 min.
Also
when we run this query
select * from sys.dm_os_sys_info
one column os_priority_class shows a value = 32 ? what does this means.
In the MSSQLSERVER SERVICES, properties, there is a parameter displaying value
Advanced > Running Under 64 bit OS = No ? what does this means.
Could anyone pls suggest as to how to increase the sqlservr.exe memory area, and also how the enhance the performance.

Hi there
Our ISP hosts our data on SQL Server Enterprise, but I also going to host the databases on my local machine.
As it's just local would Standard edition do? If I migrate the databases over, will it work?
Thanks in advance.
Is there anything significantly better in Enterprise Manager 2000 vs. the old EM from SQL Server 7.0?
If so I'd be willing to pay the $50 for the SQL Server 2000 Developer
Edition to get it... if not it seems dumb to pay for anything when MSDE
2000 is free and I already have the old EM. (Although I have
installed MSDE 2000 as a new instance and can't figure out how to get
at it via EM.)
Thanks for any insight.
What are the main differences between the Enterprise version and the 'normal' version ?
Is it possible to link odbc-data-sources the the small version too??
I have just discovered something with EM 2000. In the old days (SQL Server 7), you could right click on a table, choose OPEN TABLE -> SELECT ALL ROWS and get a nice little grid with the select results. The same is true in SQL Server 2000. One thing you cannot do is update a value in that result set, which WAS something you could do in SQL Server 7. If you try it in EM 2000, you get the error message "TRANSACTION CANNOT BE STARTED WHILE IN FIREHOSE MODE". ???????
Am I just missing something, or was Microsoft so worked up about putting XML into their product, they overlooked some of the simple things that were really appreciated (and sorely missed).
If anyone can provide some insight, it would be appreciated.
Thank You
Can the SQL 2000 Enterprise Manager be successfully installed and utilised on a pc that currently has SQL 7 and is used to administer other SQL 7 servers? Can the SQL 2000 Enterprise Manager be used to administer SQL 7?
Thanks.
Can you have MS SQL Enterprise Manager 7.0 and 2000 on the same computer? If so, are there any special steps involved?
Thanks,
Dave
I am attempting to install MS SQL 2000 SP2 on a Windows Server 2003 Enterprise SP1 box. The only installer I can find on the disc is in the MSDE directory and when I run it it immediately gives me this error:
"This installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer package."
I have tried copying the install files to my local hard drive for install, I have checked the version of my Windows Installer (3.1.4000.1840). I have the SP4 updates ready to go once it's installed, but I just cannot get past that point. I know that the same software version has been installed on other Windows 2003 systems, so why would it have a problem on this one machine?
Thanks
I am having trouble with sql server timing out. I have the timeout set to maximum, and the query I am running is pretty simple. The data is about 10+ million lines, but It should not have a problem running queries on this. plus the timeout comes before the expiration of the timeout setting. The strange thing is, is that sometimes it will work if you just keep running the query. Has anyone run into this, and is there a fix? Also, sometimes if i link the table to an mdb and run the query through access, it will pull the results! what is that about?

I need to put sql server 2000 enterprise and sql server 7 on the same box. For multiple instancing is it better to run with Win 2k Pro Server or Advanced Server. Please Elaborate.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI need to max out on RAM somewhere around 3 to 4 GB and I am using SQL 2000. Standard SQL 2000 RAM is limited to 2 GB.

Hello All.
I have been using my SQL 2000 Enterprise Manager for many months but it suddenly stopped working. I have uninstalled and reinstalled the software 3 times and it is still not working. When I double click on Enterprise Manager, it doesn't run. Query Analyzer works fine.
I am on Windows XP. No change in system configuration recently or any s/w upgrade, etc.
Any advise?
Thank you.

Hi,
I hope someone out there can help, cos i really need it.
We have a 2 node cluster + SAN that will be used as our SQL 2000 servers.
We have setup the cluster ok, and have tested failover with no problems.
However, when we try to install SQL 2000, it just hangs.
I have copied the enterprise cd to the local drive, and am installing from there.
We run the setup.bat, create the Virtual Server, and assign an ip address. At this point, it just hangs.
Upon checking the SQLSTP.LOG file, this is the last entry in the log:
Begin Action : DialogShowSdDiskGroups
I have found the Microsoft Technet Article 293788, which gives me a possible soloution, but we dont have any Resource Names or Groups that have the same name.
Can someone PLEASE give me an answer on how to fix this, or at least point me in the right direction.
Many Thanks
Darren
