Memory Configurations For SQL Server 2005 EE X64 With SQL Server 2000 EE X32 On Windows Server EE X64 Server


My server is a dual AMD x64 2.19 GHz with 8 GB RAM running under Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition with service pack 1 installed.  We have SQL 2000 32-bit Enterprise installed in the default instance.  AWE is enabled using Dynamically configured SQL Server memory with 6215 MB minimum memory and 6656 maximum memory settings.

I have now installed, side-by-side, SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition in a separate named instance.  Everything is running fine but I believe SQL Server2005 could run faster and need to ensure I am giving it plenty of resources.  I realize AWE is not needed with SQL Server 2005 and I have seen suggestions to grant the SQL Server account the 'lock pages in memory' rights. This box only runs the SQL 2000 and SQL 2005 server databases and I would like to ensure, if possible, that each is splitting the available memory equally, at least until we can retire SQL Server 2000 next year.  Any suggestions?

SQL Server 2000 + 2005 Working On Same Windows 2003 Server As Seperate Instances
Hi all,I just asked some people to help me out and phone microsoft with thefollowing information, kindly they refused unless we setup a supportcontract with them first, for pre-sales information. (That really doesnot sound like good business sense to me - anyway here is our problem,if anyone could help thanks)."To tell and ask microsoft:We will be setting up a microsoft sql server 2000 instance running on awindows 2003 server.1) We need to check this can run alongside a microsoft 2003 sql server(either workgroup or standard edition), on the same machine. Are thereany .dll clashes if we do this? If there are can we run SQL Server2000, in a virtual machine running windows 2000 professional. (I have alicenced copy we can use for this).2) If we run one instance of 2000, and one of 2003 of the sql servers,can one use the processor licence model, and one use the CAL licencemodel."Thanks for any help, and any idea why they actually force you to usenews groups for pre-sales information?David

Connection Error To The SQL Server 2005 Express On Windows 2000 Server.
 

Hi,
 
My application use SQL Native Client to connect to the SQL Server 2005 Express database instance.
It uses IRowsetFastLoad for bulk insert and IRowset for other accessings.
 
When this application runs at Windows 2000 Server,
and there is another running instance of SQL Server 2000 for other service,
my program fails to connect the the SS2005 express after running about 40 hours.
The error message is 'Initialize datasource error(0x80004005)'
 
The memory usage of SS2005 express is over 600 MB even though I limited the memory usage to 200MB using sp_configure stored procedure.  Another programs also fail to running. For example, the ftp client return error message
like this, 'No buffer space is supported.' and fails to connect to FTP server.
 
Here is my code.
Please check if there are any problems like threading models,MDAC version ect...

Secruity Question, Putting SQL Server 2000 Or 2005 On Windows Server 2003 Running A Website
Where can I further educate myself on this subject?

Right off from the start I would assume that installing SQL Server 2000 or 2005 on Windows Server 2003 that is set up as a web server hosting a website would be against "best practices."  Is my assumption right?

Common sense tells me to not to host a website on a pc that is also hosting my database.

Can't Connect .Net Application From Windows Server 2003 To Database Server (SQL Server 2000)
Hi,
I am having a problem connecting my .net applications from the application server to the database server. When I run the application from my windows xp (sp2) box it works fine. When I try to connect via SQL Management Studio to the database server from the application server I get the same error.
Here is the error:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: 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: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
 Here is the Environment:
App Server:
Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition
Inside Company's Firewall/ Network
Database Server:
Windows Server 2000 Advanced Edition
SQL Server 2000 SP4
Remote Connections to the Server is checked
Enable Protocols: Named Pipes & TCP/IP
TCP/IP Port: 1402 (I don't know why it isn't the default of 1433)
The db server is sitting out side the Company's firewall (don't ask me why). I can access it fine from inside the firewall on my XP box but not from windows server 2003. There is a web server outside the our network that also connects to the db server with no problem and that is running Windows Server 2003 Web Edition.
I can ping the db server from the app server using the IP address.
I tried using the IP address and the port 1402 in my connection string but that didn't work from any machine (XP and Server).
I imagine the issue is somehow related to the company's firewall but why would it only block Windows Server 2003 and not XP?
What do I tell the network admin to change?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Oran

How To Make Use Of 4 GB Memory For SQL Server 2005 Standard + Windows 2003 Stardard
We just upgraded the memory of our database server from 2GB to 4GB. And its OS is windows 2003 standard and sql is 2005 standard edition.

Any Books That Explain How To Setup Windows 2003 Server + SQL Server 2000?
My uncle runs a small networking company and has extra licenses for Windows 2003 Server as well as SQL Server 2000. Since I just graduated from college and have started working as a database programmer (for a different company) I'd like to setup a small server at home to learn more about SQL (as well as networking, but SQL is my primary concern). I know I can setup SQL Server 2000 on my main PC, but I'd still like to set everything up in a server environment.

So, what I'm wondering is if any books (or web sites?) exist that walk you through setting up Windows 2003 Server and SQL Server 2000. I've actually set these up before (it's not very complicated) but I'm not sure if I did it the "correct" way.

Ideally if any books exist on O'Reilly's Safari Bookshelf that would be even better.

Thanks in advance,

Distributed Transactions Problem With SQL Server 2000 On Windows Server 2003
Hi

I'm running SQL Server 2000 on Windows Server 2000, but migrating all databases on SQL Server 2000 to a Server running Windows 2003

The last time I moved everything over to a new Windows 2000 server some of my SQL statements wouldn't work - and returned the following error message:

'The operation could not be performed because the OLE DB provider 'MSDAORA' was unable to begin a distributed transaction'

I was able to cure this by following advice from Microsoft.com. I changed Registry settings as follows:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREMicrosoftMSDTCMTxOCI ]
"OracleXaLib"="oraclient9.dll"
"OracleSqlLib"="orasql9.dll"
"OracleOciLib"="oci.dll"

I'm now migrating my SQL Server 2000 to a large server running Windows Server 2003 5.2., and the fix doesn't seem to work. If I run code in QA as below, it returns the error message above:

select Field1,Field2, dbo.fn_findpt(Code,Groupid)as Func_Field
into #Test
from Mytable
where Tcode is not null
and Team ='Alpha'

dbo.fn_findpt is a function which pulls data from an Oracle database using MSDAORA - and has worked fine for ages on the old Windows 2000 server.

I have also tried the process below kindly sent to me by Balmukund Lakhani – my comments follow:

Looks like you are getting hit by MSDTC default security settings for Windows 2003.
Anyway, lets try below.
a. Click Start, and then click Run.
b. In the Run dialog box, type dcomcnfg.exe, and then click OK.
c. In the Component Services window, expand Component Services, expand Computers, and then expand My Computer.
d. Right-click My Computer, and then click Properties.
e. In the My Computer Properties dialog box, click Security Configuration on the MSDTC tab.
f. In the Security Configuration dialog box, click to select the Network DTC Access check box.
g. To allow the distributed transaction to run on this computer from a remote computer, click to select the Allow Inbound check box.
h. To allow the distributed transaction to run on a remote computer from this computer, click to select the Allow Outbound check box.
i. Under the Transaction Manager Communication group, click to select the No Authentication Required option.
j. In the Security Configuration dialog box, click OK.
k. In the My Computer Properties dialog box, click OK.

My Reply:

I went through your outlined procedure. All was checked as you described:
'Allow Inbound' checked
'Allow Outbound' checked
('Allow Remote Clients' checked??
'Allow Remote Administration' checked??
not sure about the above 2)
However, I found that the 'No Authentication Required Option' wasn't selected so that is now selected.
It prompted to restart MsTDC, which I did.
Unfortunately, when I run code in QA, I get the same message.

So the situation remains:

I can link to the Oracle Server fine on the new Windows 2003 server. It's just distributed tranactions which I can't do.
If anybody has a cure for this, I'd be really grateful – I’m getting pretty desperate.

Thanks
Paul

Windows 2003 Server SP2 To Be Applied On SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition SP3
We got SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition SP3 running on Windows 2003 Standard Edition server.

Now, we would like to apply windows 2003 SP2 to the Operating System.

I was looking at the application compatibility chart for Windows 2003 SP2.Among them Microsoft SQL Server Standard (2000) was listed but with no Service pack details. And also does Standard means standard edition there?

SQL Server 2005 Connectivity From Windows 2000
We have an OLD vbscript process that is running on a Windows 2000 box. The box has Sql Server 7.0 on it (not sure if relevant). The process used to hit a Sql Server 2000 database, but that database was recently migrated to 2005 (on different server). Now the connection string obviously no longer works, and we can't even add a DSN to 2005 (does not recognize new server). The machine pings the new SQL server without any problem, but cannot connect for data access.

 

I assume there should be some driver that I can install to fix this, but have yet to find one on the web. Does anyone have a recommended download to remedy this?

 

Thanks in advance.

SQL Server Setup Failed On Windows 2000 Server SP4
Hi,
 
When I tried to install Sql server 2005 enterprise edition on Windows 2000 SP4 , it gave an error message asking to install a newer version of windows installer . So I installed the windows installer 3.1. V2, (WindowsInstaller-KB893803-v2-x86) which comes in the redistribution package with sql server 2005 installation.
 
After that when I tried to install SQL server 2005 again, it gave me the following error when installing Microsoft SQL Native Client.
 
"Errors occured during the installation:
Error 1619 installing Microsoft Native Client.
 
This installation package could not be opened. Verify that the package exists and that you can access it, or contact the application vendor to verify that this is a valid Windows Installer package."
 

 
Is this error due to the windows installer that I installed? 
 
Please Help.
 
Thanks in advance.

Reporting Services 2005 On Windows 2000 Server
Hi,

I successfully got SQL 2005 Express with reporting services running under VISTA.  Developed some reports in the VISTA environment. However, my target system is a Windows 2000 server. We installed SQL 2005 w/reporting services onto the Windows 2000 server.  SQL2005 Database is up and running.  Reporting Services are running, IIS RRS virtual directories are built, RRS databases are built.  I can do everything except deploy reports from Business Intelligent Studio.  I can preview reports, just cannot deploy.  The Reporting Services indicate 1 failure in its configuration;  the Web Service Identity.  It is loaded with <server>ASPNET.  I cannot get rid of this error.  I assume this is the problem.  After digging around I found that Windows 2000 does not have an ASPNET user, it uses the IWAM user instead.  Reporting services did not run at all till I changed the rs config file and put the IWAM user in as <WebServiceAccount>. 

Does anyone have Reporting services 2005 running on Windows 2000 server?  Anyone know how to fix the Web Service Identity error I am getting?

Thanks

SQL Server 2005 Not Starting At Boot, Windows 2000
Please feel free to redirect me if this has been previously addressed. I've read through the FAQ post and searched the forums, and as yet haven't found anything relevant on Google so I'm hoping you folks can help.

I am using SQL Server 2005 Express Edition on a fully patched Windows 2000 Server, and for some reason the database just will not start up when the machine starts or reboots. The service starts fine if I go start it by hand though. This is obnoxious because it prevents me from running fully automated updates to the box since that reboots it at least once a week on "patch Tuesday".

Here are what my related services and their startup types look like:

SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) Automatic
SQL Server Active Directory Helper Disabled
SQL Server Browser Disabled
SQL Server VSS Writer Manual

This is a production machine so I'd prefer not to run any services I don't have to. All this database needs to do is sit there and get hit by a local Cold Fusion instance that talks to it by TCP/IP. Any administration on it I tend to do locally with Management Studio Express by remotely logging into the server on it's internal IP.

The really weird thing is, I have these services configured exactly the same on development environments I've created in Windows XP and Windows 2003 Server Standard Edition. This seems to be specific to Windows 2000 Server, and I just can't figure it out...

Any advice much appreciated!

I have had SQL Server Express and Sql Server Management Studio Express installed on my machine for some time and recently tried to install a trial of SQL Server 2005 as well.  (Yes, I'm migrating from Visual Studio Express to Visual Studio Professional, just as in tended!)
Everything went fine except that nothing seemed to be installed.  I searched in all the obvious places - both on the Start/Programs menu and on the hard-drive: nothing.
A check under Add/Remove Programs showed that Sql Server 2005 Express was installed, but called SQL Server 2005.
So after a number of retries in which the install program kept saying that there was nothing to install, I selected every option under Advanced in the intall process.  This resulted in stuff being installed and I now have SQL Server 2005 running on my machine, but no SQL Server Manager icon.
My questions are:

Where can I find the SQL Server Manager executeable?
Has anyone installed SQL Server Express, SQL Server Mangement Studio Express, SQL Server 2005 and SQL Server Management Studio on a single machine successfully?  If so, what order did you install them in?  (I'm planning on uninstalling everything SXQL Server related and starting again.)
Thanks very much for your help.
Regards
Gary

Problem Accessing A SQL Server 2000 Linked Server From SQL Server 2005
Hi
I have created a linked server from SQL Server 2005 (SP 1) to SQL Service 2000 (SP 4) with a sql server login that is available on both servers but with different passwords and permissions.

 

I am getting the following error while accessing the linked server in management studio based on the scenario given below ;

 

------ Error Message Starts
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "(SQL Server 2000 instance name)" returned message "Communication link failure".
Msg 10054, Level 16, State 1, Line 0
TCP Provider: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.
Msg 18456, Level 14, State 1, Line 0
Login failed for user 'abc'.
------ Error Message Ends


Consider login name is abc.
Now this login abc has sysadmin rights on sql server 2005.
The same login abc has only db_datareader rights on sql server 2000 on just one database and is not associated with any fixed server role.

I have configured the linked server using the following options;
1. I have tried impersonating login from SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server 2000 .
2. I have also tried specifying remote login / password option.


Anyone having any idea, would be of great help.

Salman Shehbaz.

No SQL Server Report Subscriptions Run After SQL Server 2005 Upgrade From SQL Server 2000
Hello,


We had a running instance of SQL Server 2000 SP4 with SQL Server 2000
Reporting Services (SP2 I think) that had several working e-mail report
subscriptions.


Since the upgrade to SQL Server 2005 with SP1 the subscriptions simply
do not run...no errors in the logs under "C:Program FilesMicrosoft
SQL ServerMSSQL.2Reporting ServicesLogFiles".


All of the SQL Server 2005 services are running as LocalSystem except
for Integration Services and Reporting Services, which are both running
as Network Service.


The only place I find any errors at all is in the SQL Server Agent
logs...there are a couple of jobs that are Report Server related...they
both point to some kind of logon problem...'EXECUTE AS LOGIN' failed
for the requested login 'NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE'.  The step
failed.


What what do I need to do in order to get the unattended subscriptions
running again?


Thanks in advance,


Dwight

Connect From A SQL Server 2005 Db To A SQL Server 2000 Db, Without Linked Server Connection
Can I connect from a SQL Server 2005 database to a SQL Server 2000 database, without establishing a linked server connection.

 

I need to fire a SELECT query on a SQL Server 2000 database, but don't want to add it as a linked server. Is there any way I can do this or its not possible??

Cannot Install SQL Server 2005 On A Windows 2003 Cluster In Virtual Server 2005
I
am trying to install SQL 2005 in a 2-node virtual Windows 2003 cluster. I set
the cluster up through Virtual Server 2005 with 2 virtual nodes and one
virtual domain.  The nodes can connect to each other as well as the
physical machine.  When I try to install a fresh copy of SQL 2005 on my
cluster, I get an error every time. The
error stops the installation while checking system configuration after
installing prerequisites. The log file entry is as follows:

Server Switched To Windows Auth Only After SQL Server 2005 SP2a And KB933508 Upgrade
 

Last night I upgraded one of our development machines to SQL Server 2005 SP2a + KB933508. The server I did this on had 2 instances of SQL Server installed. After the upgrade, one of the instances was left in Windows Authentication mode instead of Mixed Mode.
 
Looking at the logs I can determine that it was the SP2a upgrade that did it. There was a brief time interval between the two where logins were logged as failed in the SQL Log.
 
Have any of you ever ran into this?

How Do I Connect Client Machines To SQL Server 2005 Installed On A Windows 2003 Server
I am new to SQL server 2005
 

Windows 2003 Server and all client PCs are all on the same network. I installed SQL 2005 std version on windows server 2003 and created a database and tables in it.
 
I have two users, who want to connect to SQL server 2005 from their PCs (they have windows XP):
 
These are two things that I need to facilitate:
 
1) They want to be able to write queries using Query Designer and run from their PCs.
 
2) I created an MS Access database on my PC, I want to use Access database as a front end to the SQL server database. I will create queries, forms in Access DB,  and I want to be able to get the data from SQL server Database to do this. I guess I can use ODBC to connect to tables in SQL server database.
 
3) I want to connect SQL server to Oracle database, and run oracle stored procedures. I want to load the results of oracle stored procedures into SQL server database tables. I guess I will use IIS for this. 
 
Any suggestions are appreciated, especially with item number 1.

Best Practices (set-up): Should SQL Server (2005) *not* Be Installed On The Same Physical HD As The Windows OS (Server 2003 R2
Re: Best Practices (security): Should SQL Server (2005) *not* be installed on the same physical HD as the Windows OS (Server 2003 R2) ?
 
Hi,
 
We're setting up some new servers, and today I'm looking into best practices for the SQL Server Setup portion of it.
 
The servers have include 2 x 250G HD, and from what I've read, where IIS is concerned, it should not be installed on the drive that has the OS on it, for security reasons. I was wondering if the installation of SQL Server should be on the non-OS drive as well ?
 
Thanx,

Problems Connecting To SQL Server 2005 SP2 On Windows Server 2008 (both 64bit)
 

Hi All,
After I installed sql server 2005 64bit standard edition on Windows Server Enterprise 2008 64bit, I cannot connect to the sql instance using the sql management studio on the same machine!
I verified that:


service is running,

in surface area configuration: remote connections to local and remote are enabled, for TCP/IP and named pipes.

ran the command netstat -avn| findstr 49279 to make sure that the server is listening.

firewall is off, but this does not matter since I'm connecting locally to local instance

I'm using domain controller account to login to sql server / also tried the sa account.
what else can be wrong?
 

thanks.

Installed SQL Server 2005 In Existing Windows 2003 Domain Server
I would like to ask if it is advisable to install SQL Server 2005 in the existing Windows 2003 Domain Server? Currently our Windows 2003 standard sp2 server has managing multiple server roles which is the File Server, Domain Controller (Active Directory) and DNS Server. Now my co-I.T. installed an SQL Server 2005 in our primary domain server.

Here's the problem, a client domain computers(workstation) we are having problem when we log-in, it is very slow when i login. it seems the setting of the AD or DNS was affected or maybe the services. I don't know if SQL Server 2005 are having issues or conflicts into AD, DNS or services.Can somebody give me some advice to this matters.

Thanks,

SQL Server 2005 Express With Reporting Services On Windows Server 2008 X64
I am attempting to install SQL Server 2005 Express with Reporting Services on a fresh install of Windows Server 2008 x64 Standard Edition.  Following the installation, the /reports virtual directory does not exist and the configuration option in Reporting Services Configuration for that virtual directory is disabled.
 
I have found numerous articles related to installing Reporting Services on Windows Server 2008, and on x64 Windows, but none on x64 Windows Server 2008.  Here is the background:
 
Prior to starting the installation I ran the following two commands in order to get all of the prerequisites installed:
 
ServerManagerCmd -install NET-Framework-Core
 
call start /w %SYSTEMDRIVE%windowssystem32pkgmgr /l:log.etw /iu:IIS-WebServerRole;IIS-WebServer;IIS-CommonHttpFeatures;IIS-StaticContent;IIS-DefaultDocument;IIS-DirectoryBrowsing;IIS-HttpErrors;IIS-HttpRedirect;IIS-ApplicationDevelopment;IIS-ASPNET;IIS-NetFxExtensibility;IIS-ASP;IIS-CGI;IIS-ISAPIExtensions;IIS-ISAPIFilter;IIS-ServerSideIncludes;IIS-HealthAndDiagnostics;IIS-HttpLogging;IIS-LoggingLibraries;IIS-RequestMonitor;IIS-HttpTracing;IIS-CustomLogging;IIS-ODBCLogging;IIS-Security;IIS-BasicAuthentication;IIS-WindowsAuthentication;IIS-DigestAuthentication;IIS-ClientCertificateMappingAuthentication;IIS-IISCertificateMappingAuthentication;IIS-URLAuthorization;IIS-RequestFiltering;IIS-IPSecurity;IIS-Performance;IIS-HttpCompressionStatic;IIS-HttpCompressionDynamic;IIS-WebServerManagementTools;IIS-ManagementConsole;IIS-ManagementScriptingTools;IIS-ManagementService;IIS-IIS6ManagementCompatibility;IIS-Metabase;IIS-WMICompatibility;IIS-LegacyScripts;IIS-LegacySnapIn;IIS-FTPPublishingService;IIS-FTPServer;IIS-FTPManagement;WAS-WindowsActivationService;WAS-ProcessModel;WAS-NetFxEnvironment;WAS-ConfigurationAPI
 
I then attempted to run the setup (SQLEXPR_ADV.EXE) but received the following warning:
 
"64-bit ASP .Net is Registered. Required 32-bit ASP .Net to install Microsoft Reporting Service 2005 (32.bit)"
 
The following command solved this problem (as seen on http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms143293.aspx):
 
cscript %SystemDrive%inetpubAdminScriptsadsutil.vbs set w3svc/AppPools/Enable32bitAppOnWin64 1
 
I then attempted to run setup again and this time failed during the final installation, complaining about sqlncli_x64.msi missing.  The excellent forum post at http://forums.microsoft.com/TechNet/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=3025706&SiteID=17 got me past this problem.  In a nutshell, the installer installs the wrong version of the SQL Native Client and you must manually install the 64-bit version of the SQL Native Client after starting the SQL Express installer.
 
Finally, everything installed correctly but as mentioned in the beginning of this post the Reports virtual directory does not exist and the configuration options related to the virtual directory are disabled in Reporting Services Configuration.  The ReportServer virtual directory is available and functions correctly.
 
Any procedures available from somebody who has done this?
 
Am I better off just installing the Standard version of SQL 2005 instead of Express?
