Trying To 'load' A Copy Of A SQLServer 2000 Database To SQLServer 2005 Express
Apr 18, 2008
I am trying to 'load' a copy of a SQLServer 2000 database to SQLServer 2005 Express (on another host). The copy was provided by someone else - it came to me as a MDF file only, no LDF file.
I have tried to Attach the database and it fails with a failure to load the LDF. Is there any way to bypass this issue without the LDF or do I have to have that?
The provider of the database says I can create a new database and just point to the MDF as the data source but I can't seem to find a way to do that? I am using SQL Server Management Studio Express.
Thanks!!

Hi experts;
I have a problem with unicode character 0x2300
I created this table
create table testunicode (Bez nchar(128))
Insert Data
insert into testunicode (Bez)values('’')
with 2 Unicode characters
= 0x2300
’ = 0x2122
Selecting the data
select Bez from testunicode
I see
"?’"
’ = 0x2122 is ok but instead of 0x2300 there is 0x3f
When I modify the insert statement like that ( 8960 = 0x2300 )
insert into testunicode (Bez)values(NCHAR(8960)+'’')
and select again voila i see
"’"
Does anyone have an idea?
Thanks

I have an app that uses a sqlserver 2000 jdbc driver to connect to a sqlserver 2000.
Is it possible to do a direct replacement of sqlserver 2000 with sqlserver 2005 express just by reconfiguring the app to point to the express? The app would still be using the sqlserver 2000 jdbc driver to try and make the connection.
If that is a possibility, what can be some differences in the configuration? Previously with 2000 the config information I entered is:
server name: "machinename"( or ip). I've also tried "machiname/SQLEXPRESS"
DB name: name of db instance
port: 1433(default)
user and pass.
My attempts so far results in
"java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC]Error establishing socket."
and
"java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC]Unable to connect. Invalid URL."

Hi;I thought I would rephrase a question I asked in another post to morequickly get to the heart of the matter. My apologies for anyone whois offended by what appears to be a repetition.My company has two identical web sites. One copy is for our customer,and one copy is for us to test our code changes on.We developed a hard to isolate bug in the copy of the web stie for ourcustomers.We believe the bug might be data related.We would like to replace our test database with our productiondatabase to try to reproduce the problem without interrupting ourservice to our customers.The test database and production database have all the same tables andstructures,but the names of the databases are slightly different.We have tried dropping tables from our test database and importingtables from our customer database in Management Studio. We got thedata but the identity fields were turned off as identities. We canmanually turn them back on in Management Studio, but we have severalhundred tables.In the end we just want to the data from our customer db to be in ourtest db with the test db name being the same, and have our identityfields preserved.What is the easiest way to do this?Thanks in advance for anyinformationSteve

Apparently you cannot go backwards. Once 2005 Express is installed, even removing it does not allow you to setup MSDE 2000 again. So there is no "trying it out" option.
Unfortunately, our software does not use 2005 Express. I tried it out, and now have a useless testing workstation that can't have MSDE 2000 installed again.
Any ideas on how to break the chain here are welcome.

Hi there
I heard from someone that there is a tool that can verify/check whether the database can be deported to SQL Server 2005 native (90) or not. Is this true?

Hi,
I'm using Visual Web Developer Express and Management Studio Express, and my web site is on a shared web hostΒ΄, running SqlServer2000. I'm looking for software that enables me to monitor the server, but is it possible? The only apps I've found (and downloaded and installed and unistalled) so far need administrative rights to the server so they won't work on a shared web host.
All help would be welcome!
Thanks in advance,
Pettrer

Hello people.
I am in the process of planning a server upgrade to sql2005 x64.
I created 2 linked servers: one to a SQL2000 sp4 server and one to a SQL7.0 SP3.
I have the following error when I query the linked servers.
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "IVDM2K" returned message "Unspecified error".
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "IVDM2K" returned message "The stored procedure required to complete this operation could not be found on the server. Please contact your system administrator.".
Msg 7311, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Cannot obtain the schema rowset "DBSCHEMA_TABLES_INFO" for OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "IVDM2K". The provider supports the interface, but returns a failure code when it is used.
I am aware of KB 906954.
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;906954
I applied the instcat.sql on the SQL2000SP4 server and my linked server issues for that one are gone.
However, I ran the instcat.sql script on the SQL7.0 sp3 server and the linked server is still giving me an issue.
Can someone help me find a solution to this?

Hi all,
We do our development in SQLServer 2005. We want to backup and restore our database into the client's side who use SQLServer 2000. Backup and restore cannot work. We try to script the database in 2005 and change the option script to 2000. This fails also. What other option I can use?

Hi to all GURUS,
I am very (almost two days) new to SQL Server Express (in fact SQL Server). In my old applications I am using VB.Net 2005 Express with MS Access database and now I wants to go for SQL Server Express.
One thing I am unable to find till now is : if SQLServer Express is installed on my Server machine (say ServerPC) with attached database (say MyDB.mdf), how I can access it through ADO.Net 2.0 from client machine. (using VB.Net Express)
Thanks and hope you will encourge me to use SQL Server .

Ok from what I understand, sqlserver 2005 is FREE, and it is not limited by the number of concurrent connections etc etc.
So this means you can put sqlserver 2005 express on a dedicated server, and it can pretty much handle all the load you can throw right? (except if your say running myspace hehe)
Comments?

I would really like to be using SQLServer Express 2005 for some desktop database applications and replace MSDE. However, I am using VS.NET 2003 and so far I have not been able to discover if that combination will work.

I have followed the link to download SP1 of SQLServer 2005 Express Edition, but, on that page nowhere it is mentioned that downloads offered are of SP1, it simply says that SQLServer 2005 Express edition.
What is the correct link and am I really on the correct page of SP1 ?

I am building a Visual Web Developer site with a SQL Server 2005 Express backend. I am trying to create the login page, I have written a stored procedure that takes in the username and password and returns a value which indicates whether the user is valid or not.
My problem now is integrating this stored procedure into the page. In Visual Studio 2003 you could just drag and drop the stored procedure from the Database Explorer window and it would create the neccessary SQLCommand which you can then pass parameters too and recieve return values, i.e:
sqlcommand1.Paramters[ "@username" ].value = TextUsername.Text;
sqlcommand1.Paramters[ "@password" ].value = TextPassword.Text;
sqlConnection1.Open();
sqlCommand1.ExecuteNonQuery();
Int Result = (int)sqlcommand.Parameters["@returnvalue"].value;
sqlConnection1.Close();
I see in VWD there are SqlDataSource's etc, is this what I need to use to do what I'm looking for and how do they exactly work? Ideally what I'm looking for is when a user clicks login, the contents of the 'username' and 'password' text boxes are queried against the database. What controls and configuration is required to achieve this?
Many thanks in advance,
Mervski

Iβm working with an Sqlserver 2005 Express database on my local machine, and using vs.net 2005.I need to enable the sqlserver cache by the way:
aspnet_regsql -E -d Northwind -ed
I encountered the remote connection problem(error:40).The northwind database was restored to the sqlserver 2005 express by the db file downloaded,and I added the ASPNET user.I also enabled the TCP/IP by using SQL Server Configuration Manager.
But all the web application connected to the Northwind database is working through the connection string:
"Data Source=WKS-DEV-04SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=Northwind;Integrated Security=True"
Any help will be much appreciated, thank you very much for reading my post

Bummer. I can't remember the SA password. I had setup a user account, but I can't change anything or add any new accounts using this login. I can't get in using the windows authentication method no matter how I am logged into this machine.
Any suggestions? I have never been able to use Windows Authentication. There must be something I'm missing here. I have spent hours and hours trying to get into this machine. I just want to replicate a database. This is very frustrating.
Thanks guys.

Hi,
I can't seem to set up SQL server authentication for SQLserver 2005 Express edition..
I simply can't find the settings for that. I have Management Studio Express installed and I can see the SA user but I can't login using that user.. I know that there's supposed to be a setting for turning on SQL auth. but it's not like it used to be in Enterprise manager :) so I can't find it.. ;/ I couldn't find any documentation on how to do this so I thought I'll try here..
(I need SQL auth for my project :) - it must be done with that..)
Thanks in advance,
ZenX
