I've downloaded from msdn and ran the samples. It installs something, but the database tree doesn't show up in sql studio. Is there a straight forward way to do something like import or restore a adventureworks database setup?

All,
I am very new to Sql Server and just starting in BI.
I want to do the SSIS tutorial, but even though I have been able to attach the Adventureworks DB, I can not find the flat files that are to be loaded in the tutorial. Is there some place where I can download them from?
Any other options?
Thanks for your help.
Hi,
I'm working with the sample database called Adventure Works and I'm encountering data consistency issues :
If I sum the TotalDue for one particular territory, for one particular time window from the Sales. SalesOrderHeader table and if I try to compare the result to the LastYearSales and YTDSales from the Sales.SalesTerritory table, I don't get the same number, whatever I try. So did I miss something ?
How are the LastYearSales and YTDSales fields from Sales.SalesTerritory calculated ?
Thx,
Anissa
I downloaded and installed SQL Server 2005 express Edition with advanced services.
My attempt to install the AdventureWorks from "Add or Remove Programs" failed for I was not able to see the "Documentation, Samples, and Sample Databases" node from "Feature Selection".
After reading a little bit I discovered that I had to download AdventureWorks from http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/librry/ms144235.aspx
First I downoladed and installed SqlServerSamples.msi and then AdventureWorksDB.msi however I cannot find AdventureWorks.mdf to attach to my instance? Inside the folder C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQ.1MSSQLData I have AdventureWorks_Data.mdf and AdventureWorks_Log
Can you please help?
thanks

I'm not sure that I installed the AdventureWorks database when I originally installed SQL Server 2005 on my pc, but I thought I'd better go thru the tutorial and it uses AdventureWorks, so I put my CD in to install it and started the install.
When I got to the screen where you choose your components, I only checked the Sample Database selections at the bottom. Then I got a screen saying the components had already been installed. So I thought I must have installed AdventureWorks when I did the original install, but the tutorial says to go to Registered Servers and do a new Server Registration choosing the AdventureWorks database on the Connection Properties tab. But it isn't listed there when I browse the server's databases.
How can I get it installed?
NOTE: I had SQL Server installed on my C: drive, but had a major corruption issue, so I added a second hard drive to my system and installed XP on it. So my boot drive is now by G: drive, not C:. SQL Server and most of the other programs I use have been re-installed on G:. I DO have northwind.mdb & ldb files on my C: drive. Would it be easiest to just restore them to G:? Are they the AdventureWorks database?
Thanks.
I downloaded AdventureWorksDB from the CodePlex website and tried to install it. When the install program tried to attach it to SQLEXPRESS, it gave the error (below). I've also tried attaching the database directly using the SQL Management Studio and got exactly the same error.
I'd never heard of having incompatible database versions for SQL Server before. Am I missing a patch for SQLEXPRESS or ????. Thanks.

View 5 Replies View RelatedI have downloaded and run all the .msi's for the sample databases. To install them I am suppose to use "SQL Server 2005 Setup, you need to click the Advanced button....". I don't seem to have a "SQL Server 2005 Setup" - did the docs revert back to SQL Server rather than SQL Express or what ???

Hi
Books online mention the existence of sample code for several custom tasks, including the one mentioned in the title. But, when I try to find this code in the location mentioned it is nowhere to be found.
I have run a search on the rest of my drive and come up empty.
Can anyone tell me where to find this?
Thanks

I wonder if anyone can help.
I'm trying to work through a tutorial using a sample database , Adventureworks. When I drag a table "Address" onto my page to set up a grid veiw , and start debugging , the error message reads "invalid object name Address"
On the database explorer the table has (Person) next to the name Address. This I think has something to do with the schema. I cannot get it right to change anything , no matter what I try. I have used this data base in a windows application and it works fine. No (Person ) attached to the table name.
Has anyone got any ideas.
Thanks

I've download and installed the sample database but the Server can't see it .. it doesn't appear in the User databases. I installed using the defaults. Anyone ha d the same problem and solved it?

I've installed AdventureWorks, attached it to SQL Express and wanted to see its Database Diagrams. When I click on the Database Diagrams, I get this error message:
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express

Database diagram support objects cannot be installed because this database does not have a valid owner. To continue, first use the Files page of the Database Properties dialog box or the ALTER AUTHORIZATION statement to set the database owner to a valid login, then add the database diagram support objects.

I really see that in properties for this database there's no owner, while if I do
sp_helpdb 'AdventureWorks'
It shows that the owner is 'IDB-SERVMichael' , which is my user.
I further tried to set this user as an owner in AdventureWorks properties-files window (where it showed no owner), but it says :

Hi, I have been looking at the Adventure works DB diagram and I am confused about the relationship that employees, customers and individuals has with contact i.e. a 1-1, 1-many or many-many relationship. Also why is it broken down like that.
Thanks,

AdventureWorks and AdventureWorksDW are good samples for transaction and dw.
Is there any sample of SSIS package to load data from AdventureWorks to AdventureWorksDW? For example, I'd like to update AdventureWorksDW db everyday from transaction db.
How about if some dimensions changed, like employees, and productions?
Thanks!

The organization I work for will be converting to SQL Server 2005 in the near future so I downloaded the free 90 day trial to familiarize myself with the software. I've installed the software and my plan now is to go through the Tutorials. I need to access AdventureWorks sample database. AdventureWorks did not download upon initial setup so I've downloaded/installed it into what appears to be the correct folder: c:ProgramFilesMicrosoft SQL Server90ToolsSamples. I cannot, however, seem to locate it within SQL Management Studio. As advised by the tutorial I've tried setting up a New Server Registration but I can't seem to locate AdventureWorksDB when I'm browsing for it under the Connect to Database:' option under the "Connection Properties" tab of New Server Registration.
I am familiar with database development as it relates to MS Access but I realize this is a whole new ball of wax. Any advise would be appreciated as it relates to this problem but also any information, i.e., very basic books on learning SQL Server would also be appreciated.

All,
I am running SQL05 Dev with AdventureWorks on my desktop with local admin rights. I also have it configured to connect locally since it's a DEV version of SQL.
When I use either of the connection strings below I get the error message at the end of this post.
Thanks,

Here are the strings:
Data source=(local); initial catalog=AdventureWorks or Data source=(SQLDEV05); initial catalog=AdventureWorks
Here is the error message:

Hi All,
I am using SQLExpress and want to use some of the sample data to educate myself. however, I cannot seem to connect to the Adventureworks databse. I do not even see it within Management Studio Express. I would be grateful for advice or an article that will push in the right direction.
