View 1 RepliesHi,
I've been trying to follow Microsoft's instructions on installing MSDE2000 for Visual Studio. I do instancename=VSDOTNET SECURITY=SQL SAPWD=XXXX and all that. When I reboot, I notice that I have no services in the SQL Service Manager, nor can it find my computername.
Anybody know why this is?

Hi,
I have a problem with the database that I created using MSDE 2000 SP4. I tried to attached the database into the new SQL Express using the sp_attach_db and it worked. The message mentioned is that the DB has been upgraded. When I tried to attach back the DB back to my MSDE, it can't be done.
My PC is XP pro SP2. Before I reattach the DB back to MSDE, I detach the DB from my SQL express.
Is it because once the SQL express upgraded the DB, it cannot be supported by MSDE or SQL 2000 ?
Thanks. Any help is greatly appreciated.

Hi there,
I'm having some trouble with my MSDE2000 (version 8.00.194) and I'd appreciate any insight you could provide...
Long story short, I'm not sure what went wrong, but after stopping my SQL server to change DBs, it wouldn't start again. On the server, it showed no errors. In my services list, it said something along the lines of 'This service has no actions to perform, and so will not start'. It was a few days back, so I forget the exact message...
After restarting my PC, the service started without any errors, but my ODBC Connections will not find my SQL server. I get the following messages with the following scenarios:
Server: (local) : SQL server does not exist or access denied.
Server: . : Specified SQL server not found.
Server: 127.0.0.1 : Login failed for user <username>.
Server: <PC name> : Login failed for user <username>.
I have come across a similar issue before, where re-installing the MSDE sorted it out, this time however, I cannot uninstall the desktop engine: simply shows 'An error has occured during the installation' and nothing else after that. I also cannot apply any service packs, I get the same message as above. I have also tried upgrading to MSDE2005 (using company CDs on my PC at work), to be told that the installation has been blocked due to the following software: 'MSDE2000 8.00.194'.
For the record, I have also installed SP3 for Win XP... Not sure if that might be the issue? I somehow doubt it though. I tried a system restore to the day before the problem started, and it is still doing the same after a successful restore.
Help?!? Please? I need an SQL server for my work software to function correctly, I work in a busy call centre and I cannot get this fixed myself. I'm on the brink of formatting with a fresh install if XP.
Regards,
Andre.
I have side by side msde2000 and sqlexpress installed. I need to move a db that has been detached from msde2000 and where it works perfectly fine into sql express. After I select the .mdf file to attach I get this error:

I just downloaded and installed MSDE2000 sp3a for winform and asp.net
quickstart tutorial. But I found it has no sample database such as pubs
and northwind. It used to have these databases. At least in last September
when .Net web Matrix came out.
If this is the case, can someone tell me where to get the sql scripts
to create Northwind database in MSDE?
Becasue the winform tutorial uses this database.
Thanks in advance!

hi there,
i have following system:
the MSDN is running on a win98 machine,
the client-applications, which uses the DB are running on winXP.
there are (SOMETIME!) connection problems to the DB, i guess because of
connection timeouts.

or install additionally components such as MDAC.
what can i do,
please help me, it is a support case for a customer.
thank you very much.

I attempted to install MSDE on a WinXP machine(server) today. I installedfrom the command prompt as follows:-[color=blue]>setup INSTANCENAME="NetSDK" SECURITYMODE=SQL BLANKSAPWD=1[/color]Before I get 'blasted', I know that I 'really shouldn't' use a blank sa pswdbut.......I did :-)I then detached (sp_detachdb) an existing db from another machine. Moved itonto the new instance and reattached it.Finally, I executed the following scripts:-sp_addlogin @loginame = 'name', @passwd = 'password', @defdb = 'dbName'sp_grantdbaccess 'name'sp_addrolemember 'db_owner', 'name'So, this was fine and I could connect to the new db using either windowsintegrated security or 'name'/'password' BUT..BIG BUT, only at the server.When I tried to connect from a client I received an error message, 'SQLServer Does Not Exist or Access Denied'.I am assuming that all is well with the db and that it is something I havedone...or more probably not done with the sql server instance (as the errorsuggests:-). Can anyone please suggest my error?Thanks

Hi,
Recently when i try to upgrade my current MSDE 2000 (SP3a) to SP4, the system just keep on failing me. Here is the scenario:
1. Download the MSDE2000 SP4 from microsoft
2. Extract the SP4
3. Run the following command in either the command prompt or via a batch file:
echo off
echo "Start to Upgrade MSDE SP4 ... "
setup.exe /UPGRADESP SQLRUN INSTANCENAME=JSNG SECURITYMODE=SQL UPGRADEUSER=sa UPGRADEPWD=Th3B3st /L*v c:MSDE_Log.log
echo "SP4 Upgrade Process completed!"
4. Once the above batch file was runned, the standard SQL configuration screen (gathering information) will be triggered.
5. However after a while the installation will just stopped.
6. When i checked on the log, i have found out that the failure of installation is due to the system has failed to configure the server. PFB for the last few rows of the verbose log:
=== Logging stopped: 8/22/2006 17:36:49 ===
MSI (c) (90:88) [17:36:49:865]: Note: 1: 1729
MSI (c) (90:88) [17:36:49:865]: Product: Microsoft SQL Server Desktop Engine -- Configuration failed.
MSI (c) (90:88) [17:36:49:865]: Grabbed execution mutex.
MSI (c) (90:88) [17:36:49:865]: Cleaning up uninstalled install packages, if any exist
MSI (c) (90:88) [17:36:49:865]: MainEngineThread is returning 1603
=== Verbose logging stopped: 8/22/2006 17:36:49 ===
7. When i check the MSI Installer Event ID at Microsoft site, it just said that this is the server configuration problem and i cant find any solution.
Any forumers here experience the above before? Mind to share some thoughts?
FYI, my current MSDE configuration is as follow:
- MSDE 2000 Release A (SP3a - 8.00.760)
- Installed Instance = JSNG
Thanks.
regards,
JS
Has any one had experience with upgrading MSDE2000 with no instance to SQL2005 Express?

Can't connect from Win XPpro to named instance nor default instance on server running MSDE2000 SP3 via LAN (WORKGROUP). Works fine from Win 2K in the same network. Attached screen shot of error message. Osql gives the same response.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI am aware that instances of both can exist on the same machine.
But I assume that is when a different instance of SQL Server Express is installed with an existing instance of MSDE2000
Many moons ago, when the various flavours and betas of SQL Express became available, I upgraded from MSDE2000 - didn't think I would need it again.
I now have an application, Sony Vegas 6, which uses MSDE2000 for it's Media Manager. According to their support it won't install to SQL Server Express 2005.
When I try to install MSDE2000, it always fails with "Setup failerd to configure server..." and rolls back.
In the event log, there is an entry
The description for Event ID ( 19011 ) in Source ( MSSQL$SONY_MEDIAMGR )
cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry
information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote
computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this
description; see Help and Support for details. The following
information is part of the event: (SpnRegister) : Error 1355.
I have down all the usual things like uninstalling SQL Server Express 2005 (using control panel and msiexec /x {GUID}), patching the registry etc etc
The result is always the same.
The Sony Media Manager is not important and I probably won't use it but it's annoying the hell out of me - I've always claimed, over a good few years, that there was no computer problem that I couldn't finally solve, but presently this has got me beat and I feel undone!!!!!!! :-)

I'm trying to install the MSDE2000 on window xp, sp2. During the installing, apperance the percent bar is rolling back, which is not even completed install. I had read the issue from microsoft to restart the server service, and...but no luck. Is there anyone has an ideas.
View 1 Replies View RelatedMy Problems & Situation:Hi! I am a ASP.NET starter. My platform is WinXP Home Edition and I haven't installed any version of SQL server before.I download different version of MSDE and extracted in my C drive separately, including: 1. Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine (MSDE 2000) Release A 2. Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Service Pack 3a (contained MSDE 2000) 3. MSDE 2000 for Developers Using Visual Studio .NETsince all of the above versions have the same problem when I try to install it.
The problem is that when I double click each of the setup.exe, it will show a pop up error:[A strong SA password is requires for security reasons. Please use SAPWD switch to supply the same. Refer to readme for more details. Setup will now exit.]
Then I found a solution from Microsoft, it told me that: 1. Run the setup in the command prompt 2. Locate in the extracted path 3. type --> "Setup.exe /qb+ INSTANCENAME=NetSDK DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=1 SAPWD=<pwd>"
p.s. I have changed the <pwd> to 123abc
However....another Error Occur:1st pop up --> [Unable to determine system default collation.]2nd pop up --> [Microsoft SQL Server Desktop Engine Setup failed.]
My Question:1. Why the error still occour when I type that command to setup? (Solution from Microsoft)2. How can I fix it and complete the installation?3. How many users(maximum) can be created in a MSDE database?
Greateful if anyone can give me hand.
No, I'm not having any problems(yet) with servicepack 5a. However, in order to fine-tune an installation script, I need to install 5a on my test server several times.
So....how do I uninstall it? I was going from sp 3 to 5a. TIA

Hi!
I'm trying to uninstall SQL Server 7.0 going through Add/Remove Program and getting message "sqlserver.exe in use".
All my applications are closed, SQL Server service is stopped and Agent is stopped also.
What else should I check to be able to uninstall it?
Thanks

I downloaded the SQLEVAL but did not install it on my computer. It is not something I am going to need to use. Can I just delete the file folders to remove it, or do I have to finish the install, then go through the uninstall process? I would rather avoid the install because it has caused problems for a co-worker and I don't want to run into similar issues.
This may be the silliest question you guys see on the boards, but I would rather look stupid then to do something I shouldn't and screw up my computer.
If you need to know I am running Windows XP with SP2 installed.
Thanks in adavance for your help!

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have to uninstall Sql Express because of a problem that arose after I tried to make a connection from VS2008 Server Explorer to SqlExpress ( connection strings run from C3 code worked fine). I began getting weird errors and the issue has not been resolved after a long thread I ran in this forum.
It turns out there are plenty of dire warnings on the web and MSDN not to do this or that before you tried to uninstall. To tell you the truth I have uninstalled Sql Express in the past quite a few times but every time you fight new challenges and it is difficult to learn from experiecne. I have always done it headlong without considering consequences, eventually this bulldozed approach worked every time but there is a chance that with the .NET getting more complicated this time I may get in trouble.
I am referring to this article on MSDN: before you uninstalled Sql Express:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143365.aspx
which is awfully unclear. It seems it recommends uninstalling ALL versions of .NET from 2.0 on.
These are versions on my Vista machine:
v1.0.3705, v1.1.4322, v2.0.50727, v3 .0, v3.5
Do I have to uninstall any? I don't think I've done it before.
Now, those .NET versions I listed above are just folders in my WindowsMicrosoft.NETFramework directory. When I try to open Turn Windows features On & Off I can see only .NET 3.0 Framework, nothing else. Not even .NET 3.5!
Also there is this frightening link:

Any comments will be appreciated.
