Uninstalling SQL Server 2000 Instance On A Mulitple Instance Platform From Command Line
I have a situation where we need to uninstall a SQL Server 2000 instance from the command line using the REMOVE=ALL option along with the INSTANCENAME option in the uninstall process. This must be done from the command line and not through the operating system. We will then install a SQL Server 2005 instance to replace the old SQL Server 2000 instance. My question is whether or not performing an uninstall using the mentioned options will "break" other SQL Server 2000 instances on this server or will they continue to function normally? I know under SQL Server 2005 the REMOVE=ALL option will remove all the shared components and certain instances will be "broken"; does the same thing happen in SQL Server 2000?

Connection String For Default Instance Of SQL Server 2005, On A Box Also Running A Named Instance Of SQL Server 2000
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...

A CLR SVF Works On My DB Instance But Not On The Other One
Hello, I have scalar valued function that simply convert a date from UTC to LET by using the .NET functions.. The code is very simple: Partial Public Class UserFunction <Microsoft.SqlServer.Server.SqlFunction(isDeterministic:=True, Name:="ConvertLETDatetoUTC")> _ Public Shared Function ConvertLETDatetoUTC(ByVal DateLETFormat As SqlDateTime) As DateTime ' Add your code here Dim DateLETFormatToConvert As Date DateLETFormatToConvert = DateLETFormat.Value Return DateLETFormatToConvert.ToUniversalTime End Function End Class select ConvertLETDatetoUTC('2007-06-25 10:00:00') Now the problem is that the function works properly on my sql server instanc but in the moment I deploy the same code on the sql server instance on a remote machine the conversion doesn't work that means that date I pass is not converted. On the SQl server machine there the .net framework 1.1 and 2.0 ... I really don't know what to check to solve the problem .. some idea? Thank you

How To Move A Single Database From SQL Server Instance To New SQL Instance
Hi, I want to move one database from the source SQL Server 2000 instance to a new SQL 2000 instance in another machine. I have five user databases in this source SQL instance. How should be my approach to move this single database out of this ? My understanding is restoring this database in the new instance, copying all logins to the new instance and then copying the jobs, DTS packages, alerts, operators only specific to this database will do it. Please let me know if this is exactly what I should do .. Thanks in advance.. Regards, Himansu

Problem Using Client Tools To Remotely Connect To A SQL Server Instance On Another PC
Someone please help me before I loose all of my hair :mad: !!! I have two machines, a Windows Server 2003 machine running an SQL Server Standard Edition database instance and client tools (Enterprize Manager etc.), and a workstation PC running Windows XP SP2 which has just the SQL Server client tools (not an actual DB instance). I'm trying to use the Enterprize Manager client tool on my WinXP machine to remotely connect to the server instance on the server PC (via 'New SQL Server Registration' option). Everytime I do this I get the following error message: Login failed for user 'sa'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server Connection. Now I've tried using different usernames and passwords. I have login details for my SQL Server set to use Windows Login rather then SQL Server login, so I tried remotely connecting with the username and password for the server PC, tried 'sa' with server password, even tried setting up a new user on the server and logging in from the client with that, no luck. I've opened up correct ports 1433 on both PCs, even disabled the windows firewalls algother. Both server and client have SP3a installed, WinServer2003 has SP1 and XP SP2. So I'm at a loss to how to remotely connect to my SQL Server. FYI I know the server itself is working fine because I can connect to it using Enterprize Manager/Query Analyser on the local machine. Any ideas? Many thanks for your help!

SQL Server 2005 Instance (clustered) Connection Problem Using VPN Client
Hi, I have a problem when trying to connect to a SQL-2005 instance via VPN on our active active cluster. The server is configured for remote access (both TCP/IP and named pipes) and the Browser service is running. If I try to connect using just the instance name then I get an error that the connection was refused by the remote machine. However, if I connect to an instance name and supply the port then it all works. eg. MYSERVER/ SQL2005, 2379 or if I create an aliases it works fine. Seems like the vpn session is not returning the right infomation. I did go thorough sever test on the LAN and the browser services are working correctly on the LAN. The server in question is an active/active clustered setup, with SQL-2005 on the first node and and SQL-2005 on the second. Internally on the LAN I can connect no problem at all, it's only via VPN that it fails. Has anyone any ideas what to look at next ? Other SQL Server 2005 instances that are not on a cluster are connecting correctly. Any ideas would be appriaciated. Thanks.

Named Instance Connectivity Error - Only Works When Port Number Is Specified??
I have a new named instance (SQL Server 2005 x64 SP2 (Build 3159) Developer edition) setup with dynamic port selection. A default instance was also running on the server prior to the named instance setup. SQL Server Browser service is running. Remote connections are configured on the named instance. But still remote clients can only connect when the port number is specified after the instance name (servernameinstancename,9999). Without the port number, "error 26 - Error locating Server/instance specified" is thrown. Doesn't the SQL Server Browser service eliminate the need for clients to specify the port number? What am I missing? Thanks.

Failed To Generate A User Instance Of SQL Server Due To A Failure In Starting The Process For The User Instance - Vista Business

Failed To Generate A User Instance Of SQL Server Due To A Failure In Starting The Process For The User Instance
No wonder Microsoft is giving it away for free. It€™s not worth anything. I am very disappointed in this version of SQL server. I decided to start learning VB so I downloaded and installed VB 2005 express edition and SQL 2005 express. I tried to build a personal website using the starter kit. I kept getting the following error message, for which I have seen numerous postings on this forum. €œFailed to generate a user instance of SQL Server due to a failure in starting the process for the user instance. The connection will be closed.€? I went out and bought the Standard version of VS 2005 thinking there may be a feature that the free express version is lacking. I uninstalled the express version, cleaned the registry, deleted all the folders it created and installed the Standard edition. Then I tried to create a personal web using the starter kit and it does the same thing again. I can not create a database file, connect to a database file. I can not create or attach a database on the SQL 2005 express from VS 2005. The SQL server Express seems to be working OK since I can attach to it using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express. There is something about the way VS tries to connect to the database server that is not working. VB does recognize the local computer as a SQL server but can not connect to it. SQL server is set to accept Shared memory, TCP/IP and named pipes for local clients. What is causing this? This is some information on the system I am using: MS XP (SP2) Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 Version 8.0.50727.42 (RTM.050727-4200) Microsoft .NET Framework Version 2.0.50727 Installed Edition: Standard Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express 9.00.1399.00 Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2000.085.1117.00 (xpsp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158) Microsoft MSXML 2.6 3.0 4.0 5.0 6.0 Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0.2900.2180 Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0.50727.42 Operating System 5.1.2600 I am now to programming but nor computer illiterate. I have been working with MS SQL servers since version 6.5 and have MCSE, Network+, A+ and Security plus certifications. Installing and using VS should not be this problematic. What is wrong with Microsoft?

Failed To Generate A User Instance Of SQL Server Due To A Failure In Starting The Process For The User Instance
Hello everyone, I am new in .NET development and currently trying to learn VWB through Microsoft online tutorials. Here is the problem that prevents me from getting further: in VWB, when you right click App_Data and chose "Add New Item" and then select SQL database, the following error message is displayed: "Failed to generate a user instance of SQL Server due to a failure in starting the process for the user instance. The connection will be closed." If I cancel out of it, it does generate mdf file under App_Data folder in Solution Explorer, but when I try to open it, it says: "The item does not exist in the Web directory. t may have been moved, renamed or deleted." and that is where the whole sharade deadends. I can connect via mycomputersqlexpress under Data Connections in Database Explorer (it then adds "master.dbo" to the path) and then create custom tables, but that is not the same, isn't it? I mean, this will not integrate my database tables through default configuration that I am trying to follow? All this happens on local machine. Thanks to everybody who can help! Jeff

Migrating From SQL2K Named Instance To SQL2K5 Default Instance
Hi, I have a task in hand to migrate (upgrade) from SQL2K named instance to SQL2K5 default instance. There are many intranet applications touching current SQL2K. I would like to perform this upgrade such that I don't have to touch any application code - meaning I don't have to change the connectionstring to point to new Default instance. How can I achieve this? So, in otherwords, here is what I want to achieve: Current Server: SQL2K: SERVER_AINSTANCE_A (named instance) Upgraded Server: SQL2K5: SERVERB (default instance) If I have both default, I could achive this by setting up DNS alias after migration done so that any call for SERVER_A would point to SERVER_B. But in my case, I don't have SERVER_A, I have named instance. Is there any solution? Regards, Vipul

Remote Client Connecting To A SQL 2005 Instance.
Good afternoon, I currently develop/maintain VB 05' apps for PDA's and desktops. I've got a scanner app that scans labels to build/transmit orders via an HTTP byte stream. I'm currently building an inventory app that resides at the remote client (windows not web) and can eventually connect to my SQL Server @ corp. At this point SQL 2005 endpoints work on the internal network but fail to resolve remotely. I've read about connecting to a SQL Server via HTTP with ip specs embedded in the connect string but havnt been able to find an example. Outside of creating a VPN for connectivity, can anyone recommend connection ideas for my scenario? Is it true that endpoints are only recommended for intranet consumption? Thanks, ChrisG

Named Instance Problems (Default Of 7.0/2000 Instance)
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?

Problem Connecting To SS2K5 Named Instance Using Client Tools
Hi, The problem I have is this: I have installed SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition on a W2K3 server that already has a SQL Server 2000 default instance installed. The installation appears to be a success. The problem is that having installed the client tools, and trying to connect, I get the following error message in a dialog: "Cannot connect server SERVERNAMEINSTANCENAME An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)(Microsoft SQL Server)" The funny thing is that I can connect to the SQL Server 2000 default instance that is on that server. So it's obviously not a connection problem per se at my end i.e. bad dns etc which might stop me resolving the server name. Googling for this error text gives the following advice on various web sites: 1. Check that the remote server allows connections. It does, as other colleagues in my team have successfully installed the tools and can connect with no problems. 2. Check that the SQL Browser service is running. It is, as without this running, my colleagues would not be able to connect either. 3. Open SQL Server Configuration Manager. Select "SQL Server 2005 Network Configuration | Protocols for MSSQLSERVER" then enable the protocols you need. The required protocol (TCP/IP) is enabled. Named pipes is also enabled, although I don't think that we're using that. And shared memory is also enabled by default. 4. Open the firewall and add exceptions for sqlbrowser.exe or UDP port 1434 There is no firewall running at either end of the connection and as mentioned I can connect to the SS2K default instance. 5. Make sure that the server machine is reachable. I can connect to the SS2K default instance so it must be reachable. I can't see that I would need to change any configuration settings as my colleagues are using exactly the same default settings for their connections and they work fine. The only thing that I have done differently is that I originally installed the client tools using someone else's privileged account as I didn't have admin rights on my box. The client tools didn't work, so I got admin rights to my box, uninstalled the client tools and then reinstalled them using my account. Still no luck. Not sure if something is still hanging around after the uninstallation that would cause me a problem. To help, I've also filled out the following questionnaire: [1] Client side: > What is the connection string in you app or DSN? There isn't one. I'm trying to connect from the SQL Server Management Studio | 'Connect to Server' dialog. > If client fails to connect, what is the client error messages? "Cannot connect server Y An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)(Microsoft SQL Server)" Is the client remote or local to the SQL server machine? Remote Can you ping your server? YES Can you telnet to your SQL Server? YES What is your client database provider? [SNAC | MDAC | ADO.NET1.0 | ADO.NET2.0| other (please specify] N/A What is your client application? SQL Management Studio Is your client computer in the same domain as the Server computer? Different domains What protocol the client enabled? [Shared Memory | TCPIP | Named Pipes]. All 3 protocols are enabled Do you have aliases configured that match the server name portion of your connection string? No Do you select force encryption on server and/or client? No [2] Server side: What is the MS SQL version? SQL Server 2005 What is the SKU of MS SQL? Enterprise What is the SQL Server Protocol enabled? [Shared Memory | TCPIP | Named Pipes ]. All 3 Does the server start successfully? YES. Other people can connect to the same instance. If SQL Server is a named instance, is the SQL browser enabled? YES What is the account that the SQL Server is running under? Domain Account Do you make firewall exception for your SQL server TCP port if you want connect remotely through TCP provider? N/A. Firewall not running. Do you make firewall exception for SQL Browser UDP port 1434? N/A. Firewall not running.

Installing A Default Instance AFTER A Named Instance???
I have SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition (sp3a) running on a windows 2003 (sp4) Server. It is a Production Server with 3 NAMED Instances and NO Default Instance. Does anyone know if I can rerun the SQL Server Install and add a DEFAULT Instance to this box without disrupting the other Named Instances???

Migrating From Named Instance To Default Instance
I installed SQL Server 2005 recently on a cluster. I didn't go for the default instance and instead I named the instance option. Now I would like to migrate everything from the named instance to the default instance, which I haven't yet installed. Is this an easy process? What about the logins and the maintenance plans and jobs? Is there anything else I need to be aware of?

Create A Named Instance On Top Of A Default Instance
Hi I've never had to do this, but when I downloaded the Web Workflow Approvals Starter Kit, it requested that I install the database into a User Instance of .SQLEXPRESS. Now the problem is, I've installed it onto a default instance, so I was wondering whether you can create a named instance on top of a default instance... and if so, how would you do that? Cheers Chris

Single Instance/Multiple Instance/Virtualization Q
I work for a mid size company with the usual collection of enterprise applications. We are trying to consolidate our SQL environment consisting of around 100 databases none of which are over 100GB with the average database size around 5GB. Recently a large server was purchased as the "Big Daddy" SQL box. Obviously not all the databases will be moved to this one box but within reason a number can. My question: What is the best way to configure the box? 1 OS & 1 Default Instance - How do we isolate loops memory leaks etc... 1 OS & Multiple instances, ie:Dedicated instance for each application. - How do you allocate CPU & memory, allow for optimum performance without putting others at risk from a rouge process? Virtualized OS for each application with a default instance - Too much overhead impacts performance? Future plans include offsite replication, perhaps mirroring with failover. I'd appreciate anyone else's thoughts ideas? How have you tackled this problem in your environment? Thanks Scott

Error Message: Failed To Generate A User Instance Of SQL Server. Only An Integrated Connection Can Generate A User Instance
Hello everybody,I was configuring a SqlDataSource control using SQL Authentication mode.I first added a database file (testdb.mdf) through Solution Explorer-Add New Items. Then through Database Explorer I created a table named "info"Then while configuring the SqlDataSource control I used the SQL Authentication mode and attached the "testdb.mdf" database file.Test Connection showed success. But when I hit the Ok button of the wizard it displayed the following error message:Failed to generate a user instance of SQL Server. Only an integrated connection can generate a user instance.While configuring the SqlDataSource control I clicked "New Connection". Under Data Source section I tried both Microsoft SQL Server and Microsoft SQL Server Database File. And in both the cases I attached a databese file(testdb.mdf). Plz enlighten me on this.Thanks and Regards,Sankar.

Help:SQLExpress User Instance Fails For Normal User; Works For Administrator
I'm using the RTM version of Visual Studion 2008 and SQLServer Express. Logged in as an administrator, I can create a connection to an mdf file and all is well. As a normal user, attempting to create a connection gives the message "sqlservr.exe has stopped working A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available." I have tried this with UAC turned on and turned off. The result is the same. In Services I can see that SQLEXPRESS is running, but each time I try to connect, I get the "stopped working" message. For existing database programs that have the .mdf file stored in the project folder, I can run the program in the VS IDE on my XP machine and on my Vista machine as administrator, but not as a normal user. I'm not looking for a workaround to make this work once, but the cause and solution to the problem. This is for an introductory VB textbook and we must be able to move a database program from one machine to another and make it work. Everything I have read says that SQLExpress should be able to do that. Can anyone help me with this? Judy Fraser

SQL Server Instance???
I have Visual Studio.NET 2003 Academic (Professional) Edition Installed on my Machine. First I need to confirm that when I installed VS.NET that it installed SQL Server. Here is my problem. I open VS.NET and view the "Server Explorer" window.Then under "Servers" "lotr" is listed (lotr is the name of my computer if that means anything as of right now).Next I expand "lotr", and then go to the bottom of the list and try to expand "SQL servers", but a "Microsoft Development Environment" error window pops up. It reads "Could not automatically discover and SQL Server instances. Choose Register SQL Server Instance from the shortcut menu if you know there are SQL instances on this machine."From there I am completely lost and have no idea what to do, because I have never set VS.NET up before and have little if any knowledge of SQL Server, but I do know if I right click on "SQL servers" and choose "Register New SQL Server Instance" it give me a "Register SQL Server Instance" window and has the server name "lotr" entered (not editable) and wants me to enter an "Instance Name". I was told on another form to enter "(local)" and my computer name ("lotr") by another. either way after I would register the instance when I try to expand it a "SQL Server Login" window pops up. The "Server" reads "lotr" (not editable) and the "Database" is blank (not editable), the checkbox "Use Windows NT Integrated Security" is unchecked, "Login" says "Administrator" and I do not know what to enter for "Password". I have tried the administrator account password for my machine, but all that happens then is a "Microsoft Development Environment" window pops up. It read "[DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen(Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access denied." Thanks A Lot, MCCCStudent

MS SQL Server 2 Same Name Instance
Hi, We are moving our MS SQL Server to a new box and I was wondering if the SQL Server instance is related to only the server it resides on or is seen in the network. In other words, if we name the new server with the same name as the old server and have both up and running, could we or will we have a problem? I appreciate any information on this, Thanks, Heather

SQL Server Instance Error
Out of nowhere, I suddenly start getting the following error after over two weeks of successful operation (SQL Server Express 2005). Not sure what the "automatically create" stuff is about. An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) SQLExpress database file auto-creation error: The connection string specifies a local Sql Server Express instance using a database location within the applications App_Data directory. The provider attempted to automatically create the application services database because the provider determined that the database does not exist. The following configuration requirements are necessary to successfully check for existence of the application services database and automatically create the application services database:If the applications App_Data directory does not already exist, the web server account must have read and write access to the applications directory. This is necessary because the web server account will automatically create the App_Data directory if it does not already exist. If the applications App_Data directory already exists, the web server account only requires read and write access to the applications App_Data directory. This is necessary because the web server account will attempt to verify that the Sql Server Express database already exists within the applications App_Data directory. Revoking read access on the App_Data directory from the web server account will prevent the provider from correctly determining if the Sql Server Express database already exists. This will cause an error when the provider attempts to create a duplicate of an already existing database. Write access is required because the web server accounts credentials are used when creating the new database. Sql Server Express must be installed on the machine. The process identity for the web server account must have a local user profile. See the readme document for details on how to create a local user profile for both machine and domain accounts. Lines from web.config: <appSettings><add key="conn" value="Integrated Security=True;Initial Catalog=t;Data Source=b " /></appSettings> How the connection string is referenced: Private objCmd As SqlCommandPrivate strConn As New SqlConnection(ConfigurationManager.AppSettings("conn"))...objCmd = New SqlCommand("select FName from tblClients", strConn)strConn.Open()

New SQL Server 2005 Instance
Hi, I am trying to install a new SQL Server 2005 instance. When running the setup I get a warning related to "Edition Change Check" that advises me to run setup with SKUUPGRADE=1. I already have SQL 2005 with SP 1 installed. For the new instance that I am trying to install I use the SQL Server 2005 media without sp1. What do I do? Ignore the warning and at the end reapply SP1?

Registering A SQL Server Instance
Ok, well I just installed Visual Studio.NET 2003 on my PC, and to prepare for next years courses I thought I might get going on some of the exercises. But I am rather new to this and when I try to expand "SQL Server" in the "Server Explorer Window" I get this message. Could not automaticly discover any SQL Server instances. Choose Register SQL Server instance from the shortcut menu if you know there are SQL Server instances on this machine. From there all I know is that I can right click on "SQL Server" and chose register new instance, but I do not know what to enter, and it suggrests leaving it balck but that doesn't work. I will get an instance but when I try to expand it another error pops up. So as you can see I have no idea what I am doing when it comes to SQL Server, can any one help me with this? Thanks again, MCCCStudent

Removing A SQL Server Instance
I have to install SQL 2000 and SQL 2005 on a server to do a Share Point upgrade. After the upgrade I want to remove the SQL 2000 instance. My question is, has anyone done this and what, if any, issues did you have. Does it matter what order they are installed in? Will I break my 2005 instance when I remove the 2000 instance? Any information would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance!! Jim Youmans St Louis, MO USA

Installing New SQL 2K5 Instance On Server With SQL 2k
I have installed a new (named) instance of SQL Server 2005 on a machie that already has a default instance of SQL Server 2000. When I installed for the first time selecting all the features, reporting services installation failed as there were port conflicts on the web server. I then uninstalled SQL server 2005 and installed it again (this time without reporting services) Now the problem is, the databases of SQL 2005 named instance is getting mapped to the SQL 2000 instance. SQL 2K was installed on C: drive, where as SQL 2K5 was installed on D: drive. When I connect to 2k5, the databases it shows are all from theSQL 2K instancec located in C: drive. Also, there are no databases in the D drive that were supposed to be created after a fresh install I need to understand why this occurs, and also a resolution to this problem. I need the clean databases (obtained after a fresh install) on the D: drive and the SQL 2K5 instance mapped to it, but wouldn't know how... Any help is greatly appreciated!!!

If I uninstall the SQL Server Native Client, will that impact the users currently using my local default instance? Any input is appreciated. Joann

SQL Server Instance Problem
On my pc, I have two SQL Server instance, the SQLEXPRESS and MSSQL. My problem is that using Managment Studio express only instance of SQLEXPRESS Server appears on it, But on Visual Studio 2005 when Im trying to connect to the server only MSSQL instance appears or sees by the Visual Studio. I have made a database project using managemant studio so how can I connect to taht database using visual studio 2005? What would I need to do for the VS2005 to see the instance of the SQLEXPRESS Server? Anyone know what to do? After few minutes, I configurerd the SQL cinfugration and started the instance of the MSSQL. Now, why at the Visual Studio 2005 the instance of the SQLEXPRESS, where my database projects where created, doesn't appear or can't see by the VS2005? even I refresh or repeat connecting to the server? only MSSQL appears.
