Upgrade A SQL 7.0 Instance To 2000
Jun 13, 2001
I started with a SQL 7.0 installation and installed an instance of SQL 2000. The default instance is SQL 7.0 as expected and both run fine. However, now I'd like to upgrade the SQL 7.0 instance to SQL 2000, but the setup procedure on the install CD only allows you to upgrade/modify the SQL 2000 instance. It seems as though once you've chosen to install SQL 2000 as an instance, you do not have the opportunity again to upgrade the SQL 7.0 instance in place. I tried to remove the SQL 2000 instance and reinstall 2000, but the procedure does not give you the opportunity to upgrade the SQL 7.0 instance -- only to modify the programs installed. Any suggestions?
(I could use the Copy Database Wizard to move all databases along with associated stored procedures, logins, etc., but then I'd have to mess with DTS packages, etc.)

I am trying to set up a Named Instance of SQL 2000 on the same machine that has a default instance of SQL 7.0. The setup always completes and I am able to register the Named Instance of the SQL Server with which it was installed on. However, when I try to connect the users to the database, with both windows and SQL authentication, I receive a SQL server not found error. I have tried an alias setup as well as physically specifying the port number in settup up an ODBC connection.
Has anyone ran into similar problems?
Also, has anyone been able to successfully complete the process as mentioned above?

Hi
I want to Upgrade my express instance "Officeservers" to standard. I have installed Sql Server 2005 standard, but
the MOSS 2007 installs default Officeservers to express. The reason to upgrade is to use the maintenance plans to backup the instance. I have a report server on a different instance (standard).
Do I upgrade with SKUUPGRADE=1 and this is all ?
Do I need to run sp2 after this and does this affect my report server ?
Thanks for your help.
regards
Ivar

I have two software products that are accessing the same MSDE Database instance. I recently upgraded the MSDE instance to SQL Express using the in place method. The upgrade runs with success. However, one scenerio is breaking both software products.
1. Product A is not installed
2. An older version of Product B which uses MSDE is intalled.
3. I upgrade the MSDE instance to SQL Express
4. An older version of Product A is installed that uses MSDE.
Note: At this point the install of product A attempts to install an MSDE named instance that is the same as the upgraded instance
5. The install of Product A fails and corrupts the registry keys
6. Now my SQL Express named instance is corrupt and product B can not find the database instance.
Question: Can MSDE and SQL Express run side by side with both having an instance with the same name? I am pretty sure that the answer is going to be No.
If not, how can I prevent this scenerio from occurring. I'm thinking that I will have to do a side by side upgrade creating a new instance with a different name. Then I will have to direct both products to the new named instance. Any ideas or suggestions?

I installed a default SQL Server 2012 instance on Windows Server 2012.I enabled the SQL Browser and changed the TCP port of the instance to 1435. I changed port 1433 to 1435 I was able to connect to the instance using SSMS on another server. Now I have to enter Servername,1435 to make a connection.Why does the SQL Browser not resolve the servername to the right IP address and port 1435? Why am I not able to make a connection when I enter the servername or <servername>MSSQLSERVER? Is a SQL Browser only resolving named instances?This works fine for a named instance. Is there something special about default instances or the SQL Browser?

I got the following error using either NT or SQL Login ('sa') that are sysadmin in my SQL 2005 instance:
Your Account information could not be verified for one or more instances. Ensure that you can connect to all the selected instances using the account information provided. To process further deselect the instances to which connectivity cannot be established.
However, I would login to SQL 2005 named instance, either NT or SQL login 'sa' without any problems to do anything I want because both are sysadmin.
<PS> Note that my default SQL instance in my local server is SQL 2000 and SQL 2005 named instance.

The box I am trying to connect to is running two instances of SQL Server.
There is a SQL Server 2005 instance which is the default. There is a SQL Server 2000 instance which is named 'SQLSERVER'.
I can connect to the SQL Server 2000 instance no problem:<add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPCSQLSERVER;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" />
However, I am having trouble connecting to the Default SQL Server 2005 instance. I have tried:
<add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPC;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" />
but it doesn't work. I have tried explicitly setting SQL Server 2005 to use port 1434 (as SQL Server 2000 is running on port 1433), and then used:
<add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPC,1434;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" />
but this doesn't work either.
Am I mssing something here? Any help much appreciated
Thanks...

I have a named sql instance on SQL 2012. The issue is that the clients is having problem connecting to it when the firewall is on, this is not consistent. The connection is fine when I disabled the firewall. When I turned the Windows firewall back on, it will work for awhile and it fails. I checked the SQL configuration manager and saw that a dynamic port is assigned to the named instance. I did put that in the firewall rule and unblock it. I also put TCP 1433 and 1434 as well as the browser service port, TCPUDP 2382 and it still didn't work.What is the best way to determine what port does the named instance are listening?

We have installed 2014 sql server on a stand alone VM and can create alerts without issue. We recently did a cluster install of 2014, and when trying to create alerts get the following error:
Msg 14262, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_verify_performance_condition, Line 52
The specified object_name ('Databases') does not exist.
Specifically, we are trying to create a database alert on percent log used that will kick off a job to back up the log.
We are on Windows 2012R2 o/s. In the drop downs in SSMS under alerts, we do not have all the options we have in the stand alone instance - they are not there. Is this a bug? Is there a CU?

Have searched a good bit for a KB or other article but haven't been able to find one.
I have a 2003 server with SQL Server 2005 Express installed, but not the Advanced Services version. Recently installed an application that needs the Full Text search capability. Would prefer not to remove SQL Server Express and reinstall the Advanced version because I'm also using Symantec Backup Exec 11d which has its own instance on the SSExpress installation.
Is it possible to upgrade an instance to Advanced Services? If not, is it possible to upgrade the entire install?
There's got to be a how-to article somewhere on how to do this. Just can't seem to locate it at Microsoft or with Google.
Thanks for any help.

I recently had to reinstall a new instance of SQLServer 2000, but was unable to use the previous server name. As a result, my Access2000 front end is not happy with it's linked tables. I can't seem to find anyplace within Access to universally change the address of the SQLServer used as the back-end for all linked tables.
When I do try to access the linked tables through Access, I get an error, and the option to change the server location. When I try to type-in the new SQLServer location, there is an attempt to reconnect to SQLServer, but a whole lot of errors are generated, and none of the data is transferred into the Access table.
I really don't want to have to re-do my Access front end, so it seems it would be easiest to somehow reinstall SQLServer to have the same server location it used to. Is there a good way to completely erase all traces of SQLServer so that I can have better luck reinstalling it to the same location it used to be in? Just using the uninstall program from SQLServer doesn't seem to be cutting it.
Thanks!

hello we want to evaluate TS foundation server but it says it won't support developer edition sql, only sql2k5 stanard. But now we have DEVELOPER version on our development sql server, DEVDATA1, i.e. instances DEVDATA1DEV, and DEVDATA1QA are both installed on the same sql server box with both SP1 applied.
How can we update DEVDATA1QA to Standard version while still have SP1 applied? we just install Standard CD and then apply SP1 again?
Because this instance is our QA version, before we do something silly, if any of you did that before, any advice would be really helpful.
thanks in advance.

We have a SQL enterprise server 2014 with two installed instance.
First instance for SharePoint 2013 DBs and second instance Dynamics AX 2012 R3 DBs.
The server has 32 GB of RAM, currently the process usage for first instance is 26 GB and second instance is 700 MB.
Which mean that SharePoint DBs in the first instance is consuming most of the RAM.
My question is there any way to assign a fixed RAM usage for a specific instance without affecting the other instance?
for example 16 GB only first instance and 16 GB to second instance.

Hello!I would like to change the SQL server 2000 from Standard version toDevelopment edition. I have two database running on this server, bothreplicated, with few jobs, etc ... Can you recommend the easiest way to dothis? I heard, it would be as easy as, detaching the databases, deletingcurrent SQL software, installing different one, and attaching the olddatabases back. I doubt that is true, so that's why I'm asking here for anyreal-life instructions.Thanks for your input!Kind regards,Dejan--

If I'm on a remote machine, meaning a computer not in the WSFC cluster, and I open SSMS 2014, point it to a SQL Instance, and open activity monitor:
1. I get all the panes and charts except % Processor Time.
2. Then, if I authenticate to the cluster's domain by mapping a drive with valid domain credentials, I'm free to put performance counters in the Perfmon - - - but SQL Activity Monitor shuts down with“The Activity Monitor is unable to execute queries against server SQL-V01INSTANCE1..Activity monitor for this instance will be placed into a paused state.Use the context menu in the overview pane to resume the activity monitor.
Additional information: Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED))(Mscorlib)”
3. Of course, the Activity monitor can't be resumed via the context menu. Removing counters and closing the perfmon do not work. I dropped the mapped drive and rebooted the machine. That brought back 95% of the information in the Activity monitor.
4. Further experimentation showed that any mapping of drive shares present on the SQL Server to the computer running SSMS cut off functionality of the 'overview' pane in the remote machine's SQL Activity monitor -- the monitor that had been trying to watch the server offering the shares.

Hi
We would like to install Sql 2005 Enterprise Edition (including database engine, reporting service, integration service and analysis service) as a sepearte instance on a server which already has Sql 2000 with reporting services and analysis services. We do not want to disturb the existing sql 2000 setup.
If we do that then what will happen to my earlier sql 2000 reporting service? Will it be upgraded to sql 2005 reporting service? I heard that reporting services are instance unaware application. Where will be the default reporting service database available?
Please help us.
Regards,
Sankar N

There must be many various ways to upgrade a dual processor server from SQL 7 to SQL 2000.
Do you think I am better off to simply run the upgrade CDs?
Would it be better to de-install SQL 7 and then install SQL 2000?
Better still to Rebuild from scratch? (OS & setup)?
This particular server has seen little use actually.
Who has experience and suggestions?
Thanks,

I am planning on upgrading my existing SQL Server 7 to 2000. I plan on starting out just upgrading the SQL first, then upgrading to Win2k Server later on.
I have read some posts here with some of you having issues, etc. Based on your experiences, do you suggest, I do both upgrades together? I think it would be best to do this on a new server, and keeping everything live on the other server until I feel comfortable in moving over the data.
What files besides the database files, should I restore, if any? Are there any significant application performance issues or bugs? Should I wait to apply the first sql patch that was just released last week? What about any code that needs to be rewritten?I will do it as a test first, but any advice would be great.

I have several SQL 7.0 SQL servers that I need to upgrade to SQL 2000.
I have been tasked with finding out what the risks are in upgrading and where I may run into problems when upgrading.
So far I have'nt been able to find any info of how to prepare for the upgrade.
Does anyone know of potential problems I should look for or documents/kb articles on the web that I can refer to plan correctly.
Thanks.

We are trying to do an upgrade in place and are getting errors that it can't activate model database files. We believe it's because we move all log files to another drive and think Microsoft failed once again to recognize this in their upgrades. They made this mistake in 7.0 SP2 (the SP failed if you moved log files to alternate location) but they fixed it in SP3.
Has anyeone experieinced this problem? Is there a workaround (other than the obvious.)
Replies are appreciated!

What is the best way of brining a SQL Server 6.5 database to a Consolidated SQL Server 2000 environment? I tried using the SQL Server 2K upgrade wizard and it failed to import some data, which made me uncomfortable in using this tool?
Is this a safe approach:
Create a database on SQL 2K and script out all the objects like tables, Indexes, views and run it against SQL 2K.
Then run the DTS to populate all the tables and you are done?

Hi,
I'm looking to upgrade our old 6.5 server (running NT4) to 2000 and go to Windows Server 2003 at the same time. There are 10 or so small to medium sized DBs on here.
Can anyone provide some decent links to blogs, FAQs or documentation relating to this?
Many thanks,

Hi,I am trying to use the Upgrade Wizard in SQL 2000 to upgrade a SQL 6.5 db to2000. I am only choosing to update a single database, not system objects.The Upgrade wizard connects to SQL 6.5, checks the db, creates the db on SQL2000 with all tables and imports users from SQL 6.5. The problem comes whenit tries to bring over the actual data. I get an error:"Couldn't connection to the export machine!" in the out log file.The in log file reports login failed.Both SQL services were running at this point, the login via SA must beworking since it copies over the 6.5 db structure and users.The SQL 6.5 machine is NT 4. The 2000 machine is Windows Server 2003. Iwas logged in as domain admin when running this. I tried playing with the"SQLUpgrade" DSN that was created on the SQL 2000 machine to use SA orwindows authentication, both fail.Any ideas?Thanks.
