1)
Which version of sql server do I need to be able to install it on my local win xp pro? At present there is no server.
I guess the answer is standard edition and not the enterprise, right?
2)
At present I have the enterprise edition CDs. If I install the Enterprise edition then does that mean on my xp pro I will have standard edition?
1. The Workgroup Edition comes with Windows SBS Server/Premium. However the docs for SQL/Server 2005 say not to install it on a Domain Controller. What does this mean--buy a separate box for the SQL Server software? If so with which OS?
2. If we get Windows SBS Standard, could we just install/download SQL Express on that Server? Even if it's a Domain Controller?
2. If a client is running an app on SQL Server 7, and wants to upgrade to 2005 (3-5 simultaneous uses of a DB about 1GB), which edition should we get?
I have the SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition CD and have succesfully installed this on my desktop.
When I install this on my Laptop the version is 2000(print @@version) is only Desktop version (2gb db limit!)....
Any ideas on why the full enterprise edition is not installing on the laptop?!!

The Laptop spec is: Intel 1.66Ghz, 1 Gb Ram, 50 Gb HDD, Windows XP SP2
The Desktop spec is: Intel 2.8 Ghz Dual Core, 2 Gb Ram, 320 Gb HDD, Windows XP SP2
Both SQL Server 2005 versions are installed from the same CD so why would there be a difference?
I understand that you cannot have Enterprise edition on XP but it has installed on the desktop, not the laptop???
I've developed and tested an application that utilizes the standard (.SQLEXPRESS, not user instance) instance of SQL Server 2005 Express. I'd like to be able to say that my solution will operate on any of the 32-bit SQL Server editions (Express, Workgroup, Standard, Developer, Enterprise).
I've found anecdotal comments from people saying that SQL Express is a subset of the other versions. However, in order to truly validate my "any edition" claim, I need to either:
a) Install and test my solution with all editions of SQL Server, or
b) Provide a justification for saying: "If it works on SQL Express, it'll work with the other editions".
Does anyone know if there is some official documentation somewhere that affirms the functional equivalence of the editions?
Is there documentation that states that each SQL Server edition is compiled from the same codebase?
We are having 2012 Enterprise Edition,If I installed the Express Edition in other Client system is it possible to connect the Server system by using Express Edition....And Can we Connect the other server editions like Enterprise,Standard..etc by Express edition...
The advanced transforms only available with Enterprise edition:
Data Mining Training Destination Data Mining Query Component Fuzzy Grouping Fuzzy Lookup Term Extraction Term Lookup The advanced tasks only available with Enterprise edition:
Data Mining Query Task
Now what does all of those terminologies mean above? We are trying to determine if we need to really invest in the enterprise edition for the integration services. The information I got came from:
Does the x64 version of SQL Server 2005 June CTP contain 64-bit versions of the SQL Server ODBC Driver and the OLE DB Provider? I am not interested in the .NET Managed Provider here, just the legacy ODBC and OLE DB drivers, and only 64-bit versions of those.
My understanding is that at installation of all but the Express edition, there is no choice but to have VS2005 installed as well. If this is true, can VS 2005 at least be uninstalled after a different debugger is enlisted?
There are numerous posts regarding this error when installing SQL Server 2005 on Windows Vista RTM thus I am starting a new thread in order to get resolution one way or another:SQL Server Setup failed to execute a command for server configuration. The error was [SQL Native Client]Windows user or group "USERNAMESQLServer2005MSFTEUser$USERNAME$MSSQLSERVER" not found. Check the name again... The error occurs when installing SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition, SQL Server Express SP1, SQL Server Express SP2 CTR (with or without the SP2 Toolkit package installed beforehand). The error occurs with or without UAC.
The installation then fails. Please advise if you have any insights. SQL Server Express SP2 CTR was announced as a workable version for Vista... note that this is not the case.
I am attempting to insert information from Visual Web Developer 2005 using either the Gridview or Datalist controls into a SQL Server 2005 database and get stuck when defining the custom statement.When I enter the text within the insert tab, the <next> button remains greyed out, preventing me from continuing to the next page.If I copy the same text into the select tab, then I can continue with the wizard, however this raises other problems which may or may not be related (multiple insertions of the data into the SQL Server database table - possibly due to postback functions). I would rather use insert to confirm that my second problem is not because I am using the wrong option.My question is:Should I be able to use the insert function within VWD express or is this only available within the standard/pro editions?
Hi My project is in .NET 2003 i.e. framework 1.1 and database in SQLServer 2000. But the reports have been developed using SQLServer 2005 Reporting Services. Now when I am trying to deploy them through deployment project of .NET its giving me following error:"Using other editions of SQL Server for report data sources and/or the report server database" is not supported in this edition of Reporting Services. Now I am really confused with this. Can any one please guide me regarding this ASAP. Thanks, Falguni
Hi, I need to know what is the exact difference between different Editions of SQL 7. Cost of SQL 7 Enterprise Edition is 5 times that of Developer's Edition of SQL 7. Also there is other edition called Standard Edition. At least i would like to know where can i get this information immidiately.

I am starting a class on SQL Server, and my school wants me to builddb's either on campus or remotely at my home connecting to their SQLServer Enterprise.Will I be okay to use Developer Edition at home to connect with anEnterprise-licensed SQL Server on campus, to build databases,sprocs, .net apps that connect to the database stored on my school'sserver?I would rather avoid the Express edition.thanks
Is it required to have all the three machines with Enterprise Editions? OR Can we install SQL Developer Edition on both DEV and TEST and have Enterprise Edition on production?
hello all, has anyone attempted (or succesfully implemented) a solution using Standard Edition, **as a replacement** for Enterprise Edition, in a multi-partition environment?
I believe one can use external partitions in SSAS to draw data from SQL Server, I'm not sure if that's a feature that works with the Standard Ed. of SSAS.
Namely, I'd like to see if I can use a setup of 4 installs of SQL Server, Standard Edition, and use that as a feed data into SSAS Standard Edition, and save some money on licensing (probably at a cost of increased maintenance). I know that the Enterprise version also has some enhanced analytics functions and other cool stuff so that'll be lost as well, with this potential setup.
My inclination is that to use external/Remote Partitions one would still need to use the Enterprise Edition, making this the only choice, for large cube builds -- but I may be wrong.
We are going to use database mirroring and database snapshots for reporting. The principal server runs SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition and mirror (reporting) runs SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition (64-bit). I failed to setup database mirroring trough GUI using SQL Server Management Studio and got this error: This mirroring configuration is not supported. Because the principal server instance, <server_name>, is Standard Edition, the mirror server instance must also be Standard Edition. But when I use T-SQL commands I was able to setup database mirroring and it works OK so far. SQL BOL says that one of requirements for database mirroring is to use the same SQL Server editions but I am wondering if it works trough T-SQL why MS mention it in the requirements list, also is totally unsupported by MS?
I have been given the "Performance and Scalability Guide" for Forefront Client Security by one of our representatives from Microsoft. The document is listed as published in July 2007, so I apparently can not supply a link. The document makes a couple of hard to swallow claims, though. One of these is this:
The sizing differences between SQL Server Standard Edition and SQL Server Enterprise edition are due to the differences in the index sizes between the two editions. I have to say I do not buy this. Can anyone disillusion me, or give me a link to anything that even implies this? I have not found anything to prove or disprove this, as yet.
Another oddity in this document is that FCS will not support 64 bit SQL Server, but encourages the use of AWE and /3GB. I can not believe there are functionality differences between the two, unless their database performance is negatively impacted by the 64 bit architecture (naturally the document is silent on why they do not support 64 bit).
Anyway, the questions are does the quote above actually hold any water? And would 64 bit SQL server cause functionality problems, other than performance problems?
I have downloaded and installed VS C# Express Orcas beta 1. It appears that Express editons ov VS can only connect to SQL2005 Express and not to a high end edition which I have on my computer. In one of the Orcas forums, it was suggested that I can install SQL2005 Express side by side my high end SQL 2005. To play it safe, I wanted to get a confirmation from this forum before I do that. Is a side-by-side installation ok? thanks.
My server is a dual AMD x64 2.19 GHz with 8 GB RAM running under Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition with service pack 1 installed. We have SQL 2000 32-bit Enterprise installed in the default instance. AWE is enabled using Dynamically configured SQL Server memory with 6215 MB minimum memory and 6656 maximum memory settings.
I have now installed, side-by-side, SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition in a separate named instance. Everything is running fine but I believe SQL Server2005 could run faster and need to ensure I am giving it plenty of resources. I realize AWE is not needed with SQL Server 2005 and I have seen suggestions to grant the SQL Server account the 'lock pages in memory' rights. This box only runs the SQL 2000 and SQL 2005 server databases and I would like to ensure, if possible, that each is splitting the available memory equally, at least until we can retire SQL Server 2000 next year. Any suggestions?
We have an old machine which holds SQL server 2000 database. We need to migrate a whole database to a new machine which has SQL server 2005.
When we tried to move whole database using Import and Export Wizard, only tables can be selected to import/export. However we want to import/export the whole database, including tables, stored procedure, view, etc. Which tool should we use?

When I proposed start to use SQL Server 2005 for new VS 2005 web sites, one of my co-workers responded that we will update the old SQL Server 2000 databases to SQL Server 2005 when we are ready to use 2005 SQL Server.
Questions: 1. Any expected problems to upgrade old 2000 databases to new 2005 SQL Server? 2. I have installed both 2005/Management Studio Express and 2000/Enterprise Manager in my PC. Any expected problems when running both 2000 and 2005 SQL Server at the same database server? 3. What is the best configuration for running SQL Server 2005 when we have old 2000 databases? Upgade or not upgrade?

Hi, I am having a problem connecting my .net applications from the application server to the database server. When I run the application from my windows xp (sp2) box it works fine. When I try to connect via SQL Management Studio to the database server from the application server I get the same error. Here is the error: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) Here is the Environment: App Server: Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition Inside Company's Firewall/ Network Database Server: Windows Server 2000 Advanced Edition SQL Server 2000 SP4 Remote Connections to the Server is checked Enable Protocols: Named Pipes & TCP/IP TCP/IP Port: 1402 (I don't know why it isn't the default of 1433) The db server is sitting out side the Company's firewall (don't ask me why). I can access it fine from inside the firewall on my XP box but not from windows server 2003. There is a web server outside the our network that also connects to the db server with no problem and that is running Windows Server 2003 Web Edition. I can ping the db server from the app server using the IP address. I tried using the IP address and the port 1402 in my connection string but that didn't work from any machine (XP and Server). I imagine the issue is somehow related to the company's firewall but why would it only block Windows Server 2003 and not XP? What do I tell the network admin to change? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Oran
if you can restore a database to Server B using Server A as the service. Meaning we would issue the command on Server A but somehow point to Server B as where we want the restore to happen.
The backup file would be in a location independent of both servers.
Dear all,On Win2000 server with SP3, I am trying to access a SQL Server 7.0database, "TestDB", from VB6 via a SQL Server ODBC system DSN using ADO2.7. In SQL Server Enterprise Manager, there is a login named "Tester".In its property window, NO "Server Roles" was assigned but its"Database Access" was set to "TestDB". This login was also made as theuser of "TestDB" with "public", "db_datareader" and "db_datawriter"selected as its "Database role membership". All the tables I am tryingto access in "TestDB" were created under "Tester".My code is like:Set conn = New ADODB.Connectionconn.Open "DSN=TestDSN;UID=Tester;PWD=test"Set cmd = New ADODB.Commandcmd.ActiveConnection = conncmd.CommandText = SQLset rs = cmd.Execute()If I set the SQL to something like "SELECT * FROM tbl_test", I alwaysget an error of "-2147217865" saying "[Microsoft][ODBC SQL ServerDriver][SQL Server] Invalid object name tbl_test". If I set the SQL to"SELECT * FROM Tester.tbl_test", everything runs properly. Could anyoneplease kindly advise why the first SQL is not working? Or in otherwords, why must I prefix the table name with its owner while the DBconnection is already made under that owner name? Thanks in advance.Tracy
