Can't Find SQL Server 2005 Evaluation Download
Hi,
I found the proper page for download of the SQL Server 2005 Evaluation and I went through the steps of registering, setting up an account, etc. When I am redirected back to the page where I can theoretically now download the installation, there are two downloads available: ReadmeSQL2005.htm and RequirementsSQL2005.htm - But not the actuall installation file. Am I missing something, ot is something just missing?

Problems Upgrading SQL Server 2005 X64 Evaluation To SQL Server 2005 X64 Enterprise
I first tried installing the DVD and of course it told me I must use the command prompt installation method to include the line SKUUPGRADE=1. I found good references to this in the following links: http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2208593&SiteID=1 http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms144259.aspx Below is the command I issued at the command prompt: start /wait d:serverssetupsetup.exe ADDLOCAL=ALL INSTANCENAME=URHCS63SQL2005DSS UPGRADE=SQL_Engine SKUUPGRADE=1 /qb My servername is URHCS63 and my instance is SQL2005DSS. When I execute this command, a installation dialog box opens briefly and then disappears and nothing else happens. Here are the results of the bootstrap log file: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 9.00.3042.00 ============================== OS Version : Microsoft Windows Server 2003 family, Enterprise Edition Service Pack 1 (Build 3790) Time : Thu Oct 25 16:17:48 2007 URHCS63 : To change an existing instance of Microsoft SQL Server 2005 to a different edition of SQL Server 2005, you must run SQL Server 2005 Setup from the command prompt and include the SKUUPGRADE=1 parameter.

SQL Server 2005 Evaluation Version
Used SQL Server Migration Assistant (SSMA) to upscale from Access 2000 to SQL server 2005 Evaluation. Regrettably, the maximum row number for each table migrated reached only 100 rows, although the original Access data tables mostly exceed 100 rows. Question: 1. Is there a row limitation set to the SQL Server Evaluation version? or 2. If not, any suggestions on how up migrate Access using SSMA to achieve full table migration (not limiting to 100 rows)? Much obliged, Tokyo, Japan

SQL Server 2005 Evaluation Install Error
I downloaded the SQL Server 2005 Evaluation setup .exe. When I wen to install it by clicking "SQLEVAL.EXE", I received an eror stating "There is not enough space on Drive C: to extract this package. I have over 50 gig of available spac eon my C drive. What gives? When I downloaded the .exe, I had the Norton AntiVirus Auto-Protect enabled. Could that have caused it? Also, 2 days ago, I installed MS-Accounting 2007. Could that have caused a problem? I have seen this error posted on the SS2005 forums and the standard response is to look at the installation logs. I have no logs. The extraction never completed. Thanks.

Can SQL Server 2005 Evaluation Be Used To Upgrade A System?
I have multiple development SQL Servers running Enterprise edition that I want to upgrade for application testing before upgrading our production system. All of the servers meet the hardware and software requirements for SQL Server 2005 Enterprise edition. However, when I try to install to use the SQL Server 2005 Evaluation Edition to upgrade the servers in place, I get the blocked upgrade message: Name: Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Reason: Your upgrade is blocked. For more information about upgrade support, see the "Version and Edition Upgrades" and "Hardware and Software Requirements" topics in SQL Server 2005 Setup Help or SQL Server 2005 Books Online. Edition check: Your upgrade is blocked because of edition upgrade rules. For more information about edition upgrades, see the Version and Edition Upgrades topic in SQL Server 2005 Setup Help or SQL Server 2005 Books Online. Can the Evaluation Edition be used to upgrade these servers or do you need the full blown version? thanks

SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Evaluation Edition Installation Problems
Hello, I try to install SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Evaluation Edition on my laptop with Windows 2000 Professional and 2 GB RAM. SQL Server 2000 is already installed and I hoped to upgrade it with the installation. I've installed .Net 2.0 prior to running the installation. I ran setup.exe from the DVD, a cmd window pops up and closes immediately. When I run setup.exe from within a command prompt window I get the error message: "Program to big to fit into memory" I can't explain this as I have 2 GB RAM plus 3 GB swap. What can I do to continue the installation? Thanks and regards Usi

Verify LicenseType After Upgrading From SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Evaluation/Trial
I upgraded a MS SQL 2005 Enterprise Evaluation/Trial to MS SQL 2005 Standard Edition with 5 User CAL. I used the following command to upgrade: start /wait setup.exe ADDLOCAL=SQL_Engine INSTANCENAME=MSSQLSERVER UPGRADE=SQL_Engine SKUUPGRADE=1 PIDKEY=<mykey> /qb Once complete, "select SERVERPROPERTY('LicenseType')" returns DISABLED, but I expected that it would return PER_SEAT. Thankfully, after the upgrade it does show EDITION=Standard Edition. Questions: 1. How do I verify the license installed is the Client Access License of 5? -- SQL Server 2005 does not seem to have the same SQL Licence control panel as did SQL 2000. It is not listed under Control Panel -> Licensing (only thing listed is 'Windows Server') nor under Administrator Tools -> Licensing. 2. How do you add CALs or change license type in SQL 2005? -- I was also puzzled that I was not asked during setup of the license mode and/or number of licenses ( I did not get this on a fresh install of SQL 2005 SE either ). Thanks for any assistance you can provide. Ajay

SQL Server 2005 Evaluation Edition Conversion To Fully Licensed Version
We downloaded and installed the trial software of SQL Server 2005 Enterprise edition a month ago. We have purchased a fully licensed version of SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition and would like to apply the licensed version to our workstation clients since their SQL software will eventually expire. Our SQL Server is not an issue since we purchased a new Server and installed the new licensed version of SQL on it. Is there an easy way to accomplish this or is an uninstall & reinstall of SQL on every workstation required? Thanks, ChrisB

But after the install I am not able to see them under All Programs-> Microsoft SQL Server 2005. On further searching I have come across this link http://channel9.msdn.com/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=142941 First of all, there is no sqlrun_tools.msi under setup folder of the dvd. And also when I tried to change component from Add/Remove programs and following the instructions as specified on clicking Change Installed components all that I see are: Connectivity Components and Software Development kit. Could someone tell me how can I install Management Studio/ Business Intelligence Studio seperately? I don't want to go through the process of re-installation.

How Do I Upload To And Download From A Shared SQL Server 2005 Database?
My hosting gives me ASP.NET 2.0 and a shared SQL Server 2005 package. I have Visual Studio 2005 on my machine - which installs SQL Server 2005 Express. I have also installed SQL Server 2005 Management Studio Express. I wish to develop my database locally (mdf file) as I won't always have internet access (and therefore can't always work directly with the remote shared database). My question is, how do I upload my database info from my local machine to my remote shared database? Also I shall wish to download my remote database to my local machine in order to work on the database (and then be able to re-upload it) sometimes. Please can somebody tell me how I can do this? Will SQL Server 2005 Management Studio Express permit me to do this and if so how? If I need the full version of SQL Server 2005 Management Studio then I do have SQL Server 2005 and this install with it (but it all looks a bit complicated to install for me). Many thanks for all help given, Graham

Is The SQL Server 2005 Express Toolkit Download Corrupt?
I have now tried to download this several times and each time I get a "Extraction failed | File is corrupt" dialog midway through the extraction. Each time it is corrupt in the same place, UNTIL I re-download it, when it is corrupt in a different place! I've tried using the -x switch to extract to different disks. No difference there - so not a disk error. I could download and extract "SQLEXPR_ADV.EXE" fine. The forums seem to offer no hope here either.

Upgrade SQL 2005 Evaluation To Workgroup/Standard Without Uninstalling: Supported?
Hi, all. I see two conflicting notes about whether one can install the SQL Server 2005 Trial/Evaluation and then upgrade to Workgroup or Standard editions, without uninstalling the Evaluation edition. http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143393.aspx seems to say YES, you can upgrade to Workgroup/Standard from the Evaluation edition. http://www.microsoft.com/sql/howtobuy/faq.mspx says NO, you can only upgrade to Enterprise edition from the Evaluation edition. For Workgroup and Standard, you must uninstall the Trial first. Which is the correct answer? Thanks, Stephen
