SQL Server 2005 To SQL Server 2000 Scripts/files Not Compatible =(
Hi,
I have been developing a rather large database in SQL Server 2005, and was informed that the database is going to be SQL Server 2000, so in the database creation options I chose the backward compatibility option for compatibility with SqlServer 2000.
When I have gone to port the database to 2000, it said it was not a readable format and that it was incompatible.
So instead of getting angry I wrote a neat little C# program that took the data and structure of my 2005 database, which then deployed it onto the 2000 server which worked fine.
However it hates Stored Procedures of which I have a fair few.
I try and deploy the stored procedures via a script tool in 2005, but it does not like sys.object.
So my few humble questions are:
1. Is there a work around script to deploy the stored procedures, without having to manually type out each one?
2. Does anyone know of a better way to deploy the 2005 database onto the 2000 sql server?

Creating A SQL Server 2000 Compatible .BAK File From SQL Server Management Studio Express
Hi,My webhost (1and1) is running SQL Server 2000 and their web tool supports the import of .bak files. However, when I try to import my .bak files created in SQL Server Management Studio Express I get the following error:"The backed-up database has on-disk structure version 611. The server supports version 539 and cannot restore or upgrade this database. RESTORE FILELIST is terminating abnormally."I have Googled this error and learnt that 2005 .bak files are not compatible with 2000 .bak files. I'm just wondering if there are any work arounds to this or alternative tools that I can create 2000 compatible .bak files from from 2000/2005 .mdf files.Thanks in advance.

How Compatible Is MSDE 2000 With SQL Server 2000?
Will any application developed against SQL Server 2000 Developer Edition work on an identical platform with only MSDE 2000 installed? I understand there's a concurrency limit with MSDE 2000 of around 25 (and there's no GUI) but apart from that, are there any aspects of SQL Server 2000 functionality (from the .NET applicaiton code's point of view) that are "disabled" in MSDE 2000?

Is SQL Server 2000/5 Compatible With Sybase 15 OLEDB Drivers?
I have been having tremendous trouble getting OLEDB connections to Sybase that I use within SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server 2005 to work properly - they always seem to revert to the older, third party Sybase drivers if they are installed on the machine and just generally cause problems - I have given up on using them within an SSIS package all together and gone down another route. Can anyone confirm to me whether or not this is because the version 15 native drivers that Sybase provide are not supported by SQL Server, please? Thank you

Is It A Compatible Bug In SQL Server 2005 ?
Hi, all here, I use SQL Server 2005 standard edition , I choose to use table(table stored in Oracle9i) as source for mining structure, and I use Oracle Provider for OLE DB(or Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle).I set one column as logic key and this column stored chinese data.Deployment was successful. When I processed the mining structure, an error happened: Warning 0x80202066:Data Flow Task :Connot retieve the column code page info from OLE DB provider.If the comopenent supports the "DefaultCodePage" property,the code page from that property will be used .Change the value of the property if the current string code page values are incorrect. If the component does not support the property, the code page from the component's locale ID will be used. But I created the same mining stucture and processed it successfully in SQL Server 2000. Is it a Compatible bug in SQL Server 2005?

Converting A 6.5 Compatible Db To SQL Server 2005
I'm trying to convert a 6.5 compatible db from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005. The issue I'm encountering is that: 1. I cannot simply convert the 6.5 compatible db to SQL Server 2005. I tried restoring from a backup - no success. 2. I tried creating the structure in SQL Server 2005 and then importing the data from SQL Server 2000. Problem is - after importing the data, I then tried creating the primary key and indexes - get a time-out error (which I never got with SQL Server 2000.) I also tried creating the primary key and indexes in SQL Server 2005 FIRST before importing - got errors when trying to import and import failed. I know this sounds like a data problem but I have no problems working with this 3 gig database in SQL Server 2000. Can anyone please help? This is a pretty serious problem I need to overcome with the SQL Server 2005 conversion.

SQL 2000 -&&> SQL 2005 Merge Replication Compatible?
Hi everyone, I'm currently trying to setup a SQL 2k (SP3, build 922) merge replication publisher and a push subscription to a SQL 2005 (RTM release, no hotfixes) subscriber. The distribution database resides on a separate SQL 2k server (SP3, build 1007). I get the error below leading me to believe merge replication is not compatible between versions. Replication-agentclassname: agent Agent_Name failed. Procedure or function sp_MSupdatesysmergearticles has too many arguments specified.. I say this b/c I've tried SQL 2005 32-bit and x64 subscribers and both give the same error. Anyone have any ideas if this is by design or just a bug that will be fixed later? Thanks. LSC

SQL Server Upgrade 2000 - 2005 Files Read Only But Not Really

Thing is... there is no write protection on the files. Can anyone advise me on how to overcome this problem so that I can attach the db, please? Thank you Robert

Linked Server To Text Files: Is Possible To Detect Changes Made To Those Files? (SQL Server 2005)
Hi gurus, I've created a linked server (and set up the corresponding schema.ini file) in order to perform bulk-inserts from some CSV text files into SQL tables (from my standpoint the text files are just for reading purposes). The linked server works fine (I can select the data in the files without a problem). Now the question: is possible to automatically detect when one or more of those files change in order to start the import process automatically? Something like having a trigger created on the CSV files Or there's no easy way to do that so I have, to say something, to create a Job that periodically checks if the files have changed programatically (say, recording each file's timestamp everytime is imported and comparing the recorded value with the current one, or whatever)? Thanks a lot in advance!

&&"Database Name (6.5 Compatible)&&" Under Management Studio Viewing Sql 2000 Server
I never noticed it before, but I am now using Management Studio to administer our sql databases and the issue became apparent. One of the databases located on a sql 2000 server, says "6.5 compatible", when viewed from Management Studio (but not from Enterprise Manager). What are the step needed to upgrade the database? (I think I need to run the Sql 2005 Upgrade Advisor first, fix any errors found, then manually change compatibility mode (to 80) from the sql 2000 server where the database is located. ) TIA, Barkingdog

Upgrade - Server 2000/sql Server 2000 To Server 2003/ Sql Server 2005
I am converting about 50 databases from Windows 2000 and from SQL Server 2000 to a totally new 4 processor Server 2003 with SQL SErver 2005. I used the Database Copy Wizard in SS2005 to do the transfer and I used the object method. After making sure the databases were big enough to hold the new Masterdatabase everything went well... except none of the stored procedures from any of the 50 databases copied from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2005. What did I do wrong? And how do i fix it. Also, even though I changed the default database, the wizard did not reflect the new SAN location for the Data and Log files. I had to do each one manually.

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?

Problem Occurs When Migrating A SQL Server 2000 Database To A SQL Server 2005 Server
When I try to migrate a database on a SQL Server 2000 server to a SQL Server 2005 server with the Copy Database Wizard of the SQL Server Management Studio, I'm confronted with the following problem; Performing operation... - Add log for package (Success) - Add task for transferring database objects (Success) - Create package (Success) - Start SQL Server Agent Job (Success) - Execute SQL Server Agent Job (Error) Messages * The job failed. Check the event log on the destination server for details. (Copy Database Wizard) When I take a look at 'Event viewer' on the SQL 2005 server, the following error is displayed; InnerException-->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) I already enabled the MSSQLSERVER network configuration protocols (TCP/IP and Named Pipes ). How do I solve this problem?

SQL Server 2005 Installation Problems With SQL Server Express && SQL Server 2000
Hi Guys, 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.

I have also tried specifying remote login / password option. Anyone having any idea, would be of great help. Regards, Salman Shehbaz.

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'.
