View 1 RepliesI have made my website using SQL Server Express edition. It is totally database driven and manypages use databases to display data. My problem is that after paying for webhosting fees my web host told me that they do not support SQL Server express edition. Instead they have support for MySQL and Ms Access. Except that there is this MS 2000 Database service for an additional cost. Any recommendations what I should do except changing the host? If I pay for MS 2000 Database servicem, will my website work? My user management(i.e ASPNETDB database) was created by Visual Web developer and I don't want to do user management myself. Any advice?
View 2 Replies View RelatedIn trying to upgrade my sql express install from express to developer edition, I ended up having to delete all things express from my computer and do a clean install of developer edition (as i installed developer edition initially over sql express but this didnt seem to work; express edition still appeared in add remove programs etc). Anyway so i blew away the install and have a clean install of developer edition. Now when I create a new website in Visual Studio 2005 and try to add a database to the project, it gives me an error stating that i need to have sql server express 2005 installed to function properly... Do i need to have express AND developer edition of sql installed to do this? I would think developer edition of sql would enable me this functionality...http://img277.imageshack.us/img277/4228/sqlerrorie2.jpgThanks!It is also worth noting that I get the dreaded remote connection error when trying to connect to a db that I used to be able to connect to when I was using sql express (the aspnetdb database that is created when you user their membership stuff)"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) "However, I did the following successfully:1. create a database using the sql management studio2. added a table and some data to it3. threw a dataset into the website4. added a gridview to a page in the website, pulling data from the dataset5. and the website runs successfully populating the page with data...fyi: My sql services: http://img158.imageshack.us/img158/2020/sqlserviceshj6.jpg

I'm trying to register a developer's 2000 pc from my 2005 pc.
i'm not sure this is even something possible from Dev Edition to Dev Edition- I can register a 2000 server just fine.
I can ping him. Both our systems have remote access 'on'. His server is (local), i've tried connecting to it by just entering his machine name and by using just the ip address. The error I get is "timeout expired. The timeout elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding."
Am I just not registering this properly? I entered just the ip address in the 'server' box. I am connecting as sa with the pw he gave me. When i connect to my server, I use the ip addressinstance. However, I am not sure what to use for the instance when all I see when I look at his machine is (local).
I haven't needed to do this before.
Suggestions?
I recently purchased a copy of Visual Studio 2005 Professional last month and it came with SQL Server Developer Edition. However, I noticed it also installs the express edition. If I choose not to install the Developer Edition (Im quite new to SQL) can I deploy a database I develop in the express edition on a regular SQL server?
Regards and thanks,
Matt

I am attempting to use the SQL Server 2008 Developer Edition (Management Studio) to create/manage a Compact Edition 3.5 database. My problem is that I cannot even create/open the compact database in Management Studio. Any help would be GREATLY appreciated. TIA
Problem Creating the Compact Database:
Open 2008 Management Studio
From menu choose File | Connect Object Explorer...
Choose SQL Server Compact Edition as the Server type.
Choose <New Database...> as the Database file.
Browse to folder where file will be created (C:MyDatabase#1.sdf was used in my example)
Leave all other field as default selections OR make changes, either way it does not work.
Click OK.
At this point the OK button just becomes disabled and nothing happens.
Problem Opening An Existing Compact Database:
Open 2008 Management Studio
From menu choose File | Connect Object Explorer...
Choose SQL Server Compact Edition as the Server type.
Choose <Browse for more...> as the Database file and locate a ".sdf" file that I created using VS2008.
Enter password, if any.
Click OK.

Hi,
I have recently upgraded a SQL x64 server from Developer Edition to Standard Edition, This succeeded without issue. Following a reboot SQL Server yielded the following message
Your SQL Server installation is either corrupt or has been tampered with unable to load SQLBoot.DLL. Please uninstall then re-run setup to correct this issue.
Please can anyone help ?
Many Thanks

I have just migrated a complete SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2 development server from Windows 2003 to Windows 2008 Server. Â I just realized that I should not have used the Data center edition Product Key as this is Development server. Â I am being asked to downgrade to Developer edition. Â I have already migrated all the logins, databases(40 databases), cubes etc. Â I really can't uninstall and reinstall Developer edition. Â How else can I upgrade/downgrade to switch from Datacenter edition to Developer edition. Â
View 2 Replies View RelatedMy dog ate my sql2000 installation disk! After a recent xp installation I remembered that.
Now I'm in a hurry to get up and running with SQL again. I've installed SQL server 2005 express, but I can't attach any databases, or really do anything for that matter. I have a copy of SQL Server 2005 enterprise edition but that won't install on my development machine, Xp Sp2. Which way should I go, install SQL 2005 enterprise on a Win 2003 server or can I download something to administer the express version?
As always thanks for any and all replies!

Hi
I am interested in taking MCTS exam 70-431 for sql server 2005 implementation and maintainance.
I have been reading the hardware requirements for the instalation of sql server versions and realise that enterprise and developer editions have same minimum requirements for the operation system.
I understand that the Developer Edition includes all the functionality of SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition, but it is licensed for use as a development and test system, not as a production server.
Also I undestand that the developer edition supports the Windows XP Home Edition with SP2 or later but the enterprise edition does not support this operating system. The evaluation/trial version is for the enterprise edition. Can I use the developer version of sql server 2005 for my practice exercises instead of using the trial version?
I have all hardware requirements for the trial enterprise version except that I am using Microsoft windows Xp home edition version 2002 with SP2. I am trying to see if I can use the developer version of sql server 2005 as it is cheaper for me to buy this software than buying the new operating system for my computer.
According to the microsoft book for the MCTS exam 70-431 there is a section which states that before you begin you should have Microsoft Windows Server 2003 running on your computer on an NTFS file system
(NTFS) partition. Will I still be ok to use the book and be able to do all the tests in the book if i am using the developer version of sql server 2005 with my Microsoft windows Xp home edition than using the trial version which comes with the book?
Thanks

As an ISV, I want to certify my product on Standard Edition. I am using Developer Edition everywhere. Is there a way I can do the certification using the Developer Edition, or do I need to obtain/purchase a copy of the Standard Edition?

Can I install SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition on XP Media Center Edition?
Thanks.
We have an existing installation of SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition (64bit) that we are ready to go live with and would like to change the edition to Enterprise Edition (64bit). We have purchased all the appropriate licenses. We would like to avoid UN-installing the Developer Edition and RE-installing the Enterprise Edition. There must be some way to change a registry key, provide your serial number via a command line utility or re-run the setup with the license key provided and direct it to just change the edition from Developer to Enterprise and not change any of the other settings like service account, sa account, collation, etc. Any help is most appreciated.
Thank you,
Matt
We have a performance problem with a SQL statement (never completes) on one of our customer€™s sites. They are running SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition with SP2. The server is dual core with 3GB or RAM.
We requested a backup of the database and restored it to a SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition Server with SP2. The server has a single CPU with 2GB or RAM. However the exact same SQL (cut and paste) executes in approx 35 seconds.
We restored the backup of the customers database SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition with SP2. The server is dual core with 2GB or RAM. However as on eth customer site the SQL never completes.
So our question is why is this happening and is there a solution?
Our understanding is that the SQL Server 2005 engine is the same but Developer Edition (aka Enterprise Edition) has additional options.
I tried to download PerformancePoint Server Trial Version to ther server today and I got to the configuration point of the Analysis Services Setting, and when I clicked next to proceed with the configuration I got a popup error message:
"Microsoft Analysis Server must be Evaluation, Developer or Enterprise Edition".
Now I have SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition Disc (Bought it with Visual Studio 2005) but on the server I have SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition, if I try to run the sql server developer Edition disc, I use the wizard download and it seems that the download is going through the SQL Server entire download, it's like I'm re-downloading SQL Server all over again.
Does that seem right?
what is the best approach to work around this probelm?
I appreciate any help
Thanks
Can I have both of them installed ? I work on applications sometimes on two different machines. One has Visual studio w/ sql 2005 developer edition, the other with express editions of both. Can I install sql express on my workstation that already has developer edition ?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have Visual Studio 2005 Team Suite and have SQL Server Express installed from the initial setup. I would like to replace the Express edition with SQL Server 2005 Developer edition. I am currently developing for SQL 2000 and also have Enterprise Manager installed locally. Will the Developer edition install offer the option to unistall the Express edition (I don't need both installed)? Or do I need to uninstall Express manually and then install Developer. Also is there anything I have to be wary of in terms of making sure I am still able to debug SQL 2000 sprocs etc. in VS?

Hi: I have installed SQL 2005 Developer Edition and VS 2005. Do I need to also install SQL 2005 Express edition too?????
My version of VS2005 is proffesional. I cannot seem to find SQL 2005 Developer Edition in the Server Explorer of VS2005. So I am wondering if I need to install SQL 2005 Express. Before I had SQL 2000 and MSDE installed with VS2003 and there was no problem.
Thanks
I tried to install this on the same box and I'm not sure how to reply to setup questions since I want to keep my SQL Server 2000 intact.
View 5 Replies View RelatedHi,
Does anyone know if it is possible to use SQL Server Developer Edition to produce SSIS packages that will operate on a remote SQL Server Express Edition database?
The situation is such that it is easiest to install a SQL Server Express Edition database on a remote server (for use within a company intranet) due to server availability and licensing restrictions. It would be great to be able to do Excel round trips with the data though - would it be possible to use SQL Server Developer Edition to do this on another computer, and have it update the data in the Express database?
Thank you for your time.
Kind Regards,
Ray Muirhead
I had to uninstall SQl Server 2005 Developer Edition because of hardware requirements, and reinstall Express Edition download version.
But SQL Server Database Services fails with this message:
SQL Server Setup has determined that the following account properties are not specified: 'AGTACCOUNT' . Error Code: 28006.
The first time I installed Express the flow of setup ended well without any message. How to act?
I have (had!) SQL Server 2005 Express and Visual Studio Web Express
2005 (still do) installed but need to write some Reporting Services
reports. I have now bought a Sql Server 2005 Developer license (£40 version)
and have installed it. However I couldn't find any new installation in
my program files so i uninstalled it and the express
version and tried to reinstall the Developer edition but it
kept stopping with all the options greyed out saying there's nothing
to install. So i managed to install as an instance, can't install the 2nd disc though ?? Am i doing something wrong here ? how can i satrt again ??
hopefully

Trying to replicate,
from: Win 2K Server, SQL Std Edition 8.00.818 SP3
to: Win XP Pro, SQL Developer Edition 8.00.2039 SP4
XP has Firewall 'Off', and I added sqlservr.exe and port 1433 to the exceptions list.
Subscription on Win 2K Server gets error that it cannot connect to the subscriber system: SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
Ping from the Win2K to the WinXP box works fine.
The WinXP SQL login works when I connect from my desktop to the XP box using both SQL Ent Mgr and Query Analyzer.
Any ideas?

Do I need to remove Microsoft SQL Server 2005 (Standard) from the Add or Remove program to replace it with Developer Edition?
I also wondering if I would need to backup my data and log files first, would they be deleted during the process?
