The Microsoft SQL Server icon is showing on my task bar but with a white (blank) circle "stamped" over the bottom right of the icon.
To me it seems that the implication is that somehow the server is not being recognized as (local)
etSDK.
Resting the mouse arrow on the Server icon displays: unknown - \ - MSSQLServer
Needless to say something is quite wrong and I cannot open nor create ANY DATA while on WebMatrix.
If I right-click on the server icon and select "Start" I get the following error: "Invalid handle" which apparently is error number 6.
Previously, after many try-outs I managed to at least put the server icon on the task bar by making use of a setup.ini file that reads as shown below (and then typing from the MSDE sub directory while in MSDOS "setup.exe").
I'm using MS Report Designer 2005 and have created a report that uses a cube, with a dimension set up to convert null values to unknown (nullProcessing = UnknownMember).
When I create a parameter using the checkbox in the graphical design mode's filter pane, Report Designer automatically sets the constrained flag, eg:
When running the report and selecting the 'Unkown' value from the parameter list, the error 'the restrictions imposed by the CONSTRAINED flag in the STRTOSET function were violated' occurrs.
How can I prevent the constrained flag from being used, or am I doing something wrong with converting null values to 'Unknown'?
This is what I want to do:1. Delete all tables in database with table names that ends with anumber.2. Leave all other tables in tact.3. Table names are unknown.4. Numbers attached to table names are unknown.5. Unknown number of tables in database.For example:(Tables in database)AccountAccount1Account2BinderBinder1Binder2Binder3.......I want to delete all the tables in the database with the exceptionof Account and Binder.I know that there are no wildcards in the "Drop Table tablename"syntax. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to write this sqlstatement?Note: I am executing this statement in MS Access with the"DoCmd.RunSQL sql_statement" command.Thanks for any help!
On the Start menu, point to All Programs, point to Microsoft SQL Server 2005, point to Configuration Tools, and then click SQL Server Configuration Manager.
In SQL Server Configuration Manager, expand Services, and then click SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER).There is no MSSQLSERVER to click!!!!!!!!
I am seeing a strange scenario in performance monitor that i am hoping someone could help shed some light on. I have a 8 processor box running only sql configured to utilize all processors. When watching the sqlservr process it seems to max out at times of high traffic. Does this not use all processors? Any know problems with this service maxing out?
MSSQLSERVER won't restart. I can't uninstall SS7, either, because it says I have MSSEARCH running, which Task Manager can't kill (access denied, even to me the administrator). Tried changing the registry keys for MSSQL to MSSQL_old and then the install goes forward but fails at the end because some of the TEMPDB files cannot be activated. This trick worked on my Win98SE once, for the same problem. I ignorantly deleted IE4 from the server's C:drive because I needed more room to reinstall. I tried reinstalling the SS7 "components" (no apparent problem, except it detects that I have now installed IE5.5)(IE5.5 automatically installs to C:Program FilesMicrosoft or thereabouts, not C: where IE4 was, by the way). I was up to SP2 on SS7, and SP6 on NT4. The name of the server hasn't changed, but the name of the c:drive is new. Why would a new install care? I ran scandisk inbetween reboots as a caution, but the install always fails. Should I be choosing the default "allow 5 connections" rather than "5 per computer licenses"? TIA, Jeb
I installed SQL server 2005 on a win2003 server box.
When I open the Connect to Server dialog box, I choose server type: Database Engine. There is no Servername listed, so I put in the name of the PC.
I get a long error message when I try to connect:
Cannot connect to PCName.... ...error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)...
When I try to go into the Surface area Configuration, I get this message: "No sql server 2005 components were found on the specified computer. Either no components are installed, or you are not an administrator on this computer. (SQLSAC)"
I am logged in as Administrator in the PC, so did I do something seriously wrong with the installation?
In the services window, I can not fine MSSQLserver (not sure if this is relevant).
Help! I just took over for a new company and after logging in to one of the servers I tried to click on the Symantec Backup Exec on the desktop. It failed and said that none of the services are started, looking in my services I can not get any of the services related to sql to start. In the bottom right hand corner in the system tray I have a red dot on the sql server and it is stopped. All the event logs say that: During redoing of a logged operation in database 'master', an error occurred at log record ID (199:200:5). Typically, the specific failure is previously logged as an error in the Windows Event Log service. Restore the database from a full backup, or repair the database.
I installed a copy of SQL server 2005 on a Win 2003 machine. I connected remotely from another machine and started Sql Server Configuration manager. The MSSQLServer is stopped. So, I click to start and it failed. The error it gave me was that it time out. I am new to SQL 2005 and I thought the next step after installing was to configure. Can anyone help me please.

I have configured SQL Server 2005 Mirroring using witness server.I have used certification method for authentication.Mirroring is working fine .
I am continously geting below error.Please tell me how to avoid this error.and How I can supress this error popping into eventlogs?

i had sqlserver2000 (including the enterprise manager and desktop engine) and .net 2003 installed in my development machine, I developed a vb.net application that communicates with a locally hosted mssql db.
recently i had .net 2005 and MS Server 2005 installed, then I converted my application in .net 2005, after, I started having problem deploying the application and db together to client machine and even on my own development machine, it's all database communication sort of problems. (now i have SQL Server Management Studio Express CTP installed)
Did i make any mistake? should i uninstall sqlserver2000, .net 2003 before installing server2005 and .net 2005?
btw, in my explorer, C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server, i have 5 subfolders: "80", "90", "MSSQL", "MSSQL.1" and "MSSQL$SETUPTESTAPPINS". i know that 80 and MSSQL are the folders for server2000, 90 and MSSQL.1 are probably server2005 folders. but what is "MSSQL$SETUPTESTAPPINS"? from the readme.txt i found it's related to server2000, but what is it about?
also, in my registry, HKEY_Local_Machine/Software/Microsoft/Microsoft SQL Server/, the value of "InstalledInstances" is MSSQL SETUP TESTAPPINS SQLEXPRESS, after i removed SQLServer2000 stuff, the key value became "SETUP TESTAPPINS SQLEXPRESS", Now i dont have server2000 in my system anymore, how come SETUP TESTAPPIN is still there?
When we try to connect the Sql server from our client, the MSSQLServer service stops and when we try to restart the service it goes back to the stop state after few seconds.
Server Configuration in order of installation, 1.WINNT 4. 2.SP4 3.SQL SERVER 6.5 4.Service PAck 5a for Sql Server 6.5 5.SP6a for NT
Workstation setup. 1.Member of the domain inwhich the SQL SERVER 6.5 is present 2.Sql client 6.5 3.SP4(for NT) 4.SP6a(for NT) No Service packs were installed in the workstation.
When we try to connect the server from the server the MSSQLServer service stops.We even tried reinstalling the entire setup from scratch. Kindly help us in this regard.
Insert or update statements seems to be locking entire page or table rather than locking the corresponding row to be inserted or updated.
lets assume the table with 3 rows.
scenario 1) In transaction A, I'm updating the 3'rd row. and in another transaction B I'm reading row 1. Transaction B seems to be waiting for transaction A to finish before returning the select results.
Scenario 2) In transaction A, I'm inserting new row (4'th row) and in another transaction B I'm reading row 1. here as well trasaction B does not return the row 1 unless transaction A is complete. Select operation is blocked due to insert.
Ideally in both the scenarios , read operation should have returned the results without waiting for update/insert to finish. As the read is being done on different rows than that of being updated or inserted. I have tried both the insert/update as well as select queries with all the possible locking hints such as ROWLOCK, READCOMMITED, UPDLOCK etc... The only way select query returns the row without blocking is by using the NOLOCK locking hint. But then this is not the proper solution as it gives us the dirty read.
Please suggest me any solution or workaround for above issue.
I am experiencing an issue with the MSSQLSERVER shutting down automically at 6:00 every 3 days. I do have 2 jobs that run at this time, but they run everyday. We did not install anything additional on the server and we are running SP3a. This just started on April 15, 2006. The Windows Event log displays the following message:
4/21/20066:00:08 PMMSSQLSERVERError(2)17052N/A<server name>The MSSQLSERVER service terminated unexpectedly.
The service stops and does not restart. It required me to restart the service manually.
For 15 days now my SQL server service is terminating with the following error
MSSQLSERVER service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 2 Time(s). This service terminates and restarts automatically and sometimes doesnt restart we have to mannuly start it again. Event ID: 7034.
Version Details
Version: MSSQL Server 2000 Service Pack: 3a Build: 8.0.0.760
I have checked many forums most of them suggest to apply the latest service pack. But the same error has been reported by sites having SP4 also. Kindly help.

I am using Visual Studio 2005. I am creating an SQL database with a web enabled front end. I am using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio to create the database objects and an ASP.NET web page created in Visual Studio for the front end. My problem is centered around the two server instances which come with Visual Studio (MSSQLSERVER and SQLEXPRESS). The database objects are being created on MSSQLSERVER by Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio. However, in a Visual Studio ASP.NET web page, when I create a new conection string using the menu functionality, in the SQLDATASOURCE object or in the server explorer, only (My Computer Name)SQLEXPRESS shows up as an option. I have tried typing (My Computer Name)MSSQLSERVER in but the database list just comes up blank. I know that MSSQLSERVER exists because I have one active connection string to it created by a friend. They had to juggle a lot of things to make MSSQLSERVER appear and since I was just getting started then it went over my head. Whatever they did was temporary though and I havn't been able to repeat it to add new connection strings. To eliminate some of the obvious things in other posts:
*MSSQLSERVER is Started in the Services Screen *In the configuration manager MSSQLSERVER has shared memory enabled *On the advice of one post or proceedure I enabled TCP/IP and restarted the service (I think this is actually for remote connections everything I am doing is on one PC)
What I really want is to have things permanently set up so MSSQLSERVER always shows up as an option when creating a connection string in Visual Studio. If this means getting rid of SQLEXPRESS I won't shed too many tears.
As you have noticed everything in this is centered around Visual Studio's menu functionality. I am currently make thee code paradigm shifts.
Form -> ASP.NET VB6 -> VB .method ADO -> SQL
I have created some pages in ASP.NET and have started creating objects using source instead of designer. I have automated some of the functionality on those pages using VB .method programing While I have created some simple SQL select and bulk insert statements my SQL is still pretty weak and I haven't learned connection strings or driving changes back to the database using Transact-SQL
I have designed a database on a SQLServer Express. When I am going to backup it, I provide a filename like as "c:/test.bak" but when executing I recieve a message that SQLServer cannot open the backup device with the name above.
Dear friends I have a problem with the use of DELPHI and MSSQLServer!
I have installed in a PC a MSSQLServer Express. The PC is connected with a other via a small network. I have developed an application in DELPHI which runs also in the two computers. I have regulated SQLServer so as to is accessible via TCP/IP, make that I tryed after in the other PC I installed SQL Server Management Studio Express and had access in the database via the network. While in the beginning both applications worked normaly and were connected regularly in the base suddenly one day they couldn't be connected giving as message the following "DataBase Server Error: SQL State: 08001, SQL Error Code: 17 ", as there was no server. That is to say without I have teased the properties the access to DataBase was impossible via the application but possible via the SQL Server Management Studio Express and the environment of Borland Delphi 2005 from both PC's. That is to say suddenly only the application simply could not be connected. I tryed a lot of solutions but no one it did not work. When I installed the MSSQLServer Express in the other PC the application could be connected from this but no from the other via network always giving the same message. Has anyone any idea why I am in impasse from solutions!!!!
When I try to access my PasswordRecovery.aspx page I get an error. I've also added the Event Warning and the Failure Audit.

I have SQL Server 2005 installed and functioning (it does everything I've asked it to do locally). I also have the Express and Standard Editions installed on a computer running WinXPPro SP2 with all the WinUpdates applied. I also have VS2005 installed on this computer. I've done some development work on this computer, using VS2005 to create a SQLDB, connect to it, add data, etc. This is all okay.
The problem is I cannot connect to the SQL Server from the client computer. I installed the client tools on this XP Pro box along with all the WinUpdates. Here's what I can do...
I can ping the SQL Server by name (the name gets resolved). I can copy files between the two computers using Explorer. I enabled "Allow remote connections to this server" in the Server Properties / Connections page. I did not change the default port of 1433. The TCP/IP protocal is enabled in the Configuration Manager. The Surface Area has been configured to allow local and remote connections using TCP/IP and named pipes. SQLBrowser surface is running as is the MSSQLSERVER service.
So what's going on? I am new to SQL Server to it may be something very simple / obvious.
I'm not sure i was clear the first time. When the MSSQLServer Service is stopped and started, it stops the SQLServerAgent Service also. But when the MSSQLServer Service is started, it DOES NOT start the SQLServerAgent Service. I don't think this is configurable, so I was wondering if someone had a workaround (.bat file, service dependency, etc.).
