Hi,
Is it possible to deploy both SQL2000 and SQL2005 on the same server in the production environment?
Is it recommended? Next year we will be deploying a SQL2005 solution and was wondering if we could get away with installing it on the same server as the SQL2000 server, or whether we should put it on another server.
We have up to a maximum of 50 concurrent users.
Thanks.
Hi,
I need to install SQL2000 onto a machine (W2K3 R2, SP2) that already has SQL2005, SP1 running. I can't disturb the SQL2005 installation.
Are there any problems or pitfalls to avoid? I've googled and looked on Technet but not yet found an answer.
Has anyone done this?
I know that if I install a separate instance of SQL2000 alongside a default installation of SQL2000 then I'll get a totally separate installation which won't affect the other one at all, so I reckon it could be done. But I have to be sure before I start!
Thanks in advance,
Steve
I just upgraded my SQL 2000 server to SQL2005. I forked out all that money, and now it takes 4~5 seconds for a webpage to load. You can see for yourself. It's pathetic. When I ran SQL2000, i was getting instant results on any webpage. I can't find any tool to optimize the tables or databases. And when I used caused SQL Server to use 100% cpu and 500+MB of ram. I can't have this.Can anyone give me some tips as to why SQL 2005 is so slow?

Hi,
I want to make some steps towards securing production database.
1. Give limited rights to Developers, i.e. db reaonly, db writedeny
2. Make strong password for local and Domain
3. Use Windows authentication
4. Enable log for 'Failed Login' attempts.
What steps I need to take in addition to those?
I developed an asp.net application in visual web developer 2005 express edition and SQL sever 2005 express with Advanced services. The application has been deployed and iam wondering what tools are availabel to for backing up my data. Are there any tools i can use to back-up my database. Iam not talking of third party tools but tools a vailable in sql sever 2005 express with advanced services or visual web developer express.
OR can write a vb.net Sub procedure that i run and have my database backed up. If so where can i start or what other options may i explorer.
I have this script that captures metrics and sizes using T-SQL. When running in development I have no issues. I can run under the context of any database and get results back. When deploying to production servers no results are returning. I'm trying to figure out what permissions are needed for this to return results.
No error message is being returned either. My access is limited for triage against Production? I need to be able to have Production DBA set the right permissions so this job can run correctly.

dbname sysname,

I have been looking for some documentation that would support or rejectmy opinion on Production -vs- Development naming conventions. Ibelieve that each environment should be housed on separate servers withidentical names, access, users, stored procs....... If you eitheragree or disagree with this methodology, I would appreciate your input.TIA,Bill

This is my problem. My package executes fine when i set the connection string with the same database where i execute the query. If i execute with another database connection stirng if fails bacause while executing the pacakge it trys to access the same connection string at design mode.
when i try to execute through cmd prompt by setting conn <new database connection string> it fails.
Is package configuration is the only solution. how can i change conn string depending on different server?
Any help would be appreciated.

Our DBA is out for about 6 weeks. One of his regular jobs is to take a Database that is in our Prod environment and copy it to our Training environment.
I have backed up and restored to different servers before, however the Database name in Prod is different than in the Train environment in this case.
In other words I have a PROD database named DATABASE-XX that I want to copy to another SQL server and restore it to DATABASE-XX-TRAIN.
Is there anything special I need to do, other than backup on PROD, copy to TRAIN and restore to the corresponding DB in TRAIN?
We usually wait until a service pack has been released for a product like SQL Server before using it in production. Is this over cautious or the norm?
Thanks

I want to copy a SQL2005 database to a SQL2000 environment? I created a backup from the DB in SQL2005 and moved the file to the other server but SQL2000 says the BAK file is invalid since the backup has structure version 611 while the server supports version 539. Any solution?

I have heard that turning off 'primary key-to-foreign key-relationships' between tables , helps to boost performance in production environments. Is this really true?
View 4 Replies View RelatedSetting up Transaction Replication in test environment. I am willing to bet that most of you take a production backup (if so, how, and using what?), restoring the database to your test environment, then running a snapshot to your subscriber and away you go.
But perhaps you take a backup of your publisher and subscriber, if so, how do you know there are no inconsistences because there were transactions sitting on the distributor?
What do you do if you have additional indexes on the subscriber for reporting, that are not on the publisher?
Here at work we are having issues with getting consistent databases set up with T Rep, missing rows, duplicate keys at subscriber etc. How to avoid these issues.
Hi all,
I just wonder can we install both sql2000 & sql2005
into one server, any problems?
thanks for advice.
I have two SQL servers setup; A - SQL 2005, and B - SQL 2000.
I would like to create an account on Server A which has access to the results from one view via a linked server on Server B. I don't want the user on Server A to be able to access any databases, tables or even columns on Server B with the exception of those contained within this view.
Is this possible, and how would I go about doing it? (Permission-wise)
I have just loaded SQL2005(server only)on my production box.
This box also is running SQL2000.
When I install the SQL2005 SP2 it says that if services are locked they will cause a reboot. I stop all the SQL 2005 services but it also want to stop SQL2000 Server for "backward compatiblilty".
I thought installing a separate instance of SQL2005 would not have any effect on my SQL2000 instance.
Thanks for your help

Hello all
I have an odd problem with sql 2005. I'm a long time sql 2000 user trying to migrate to 2005. My company uses CSVs to import data from our clients db into our SQL db. In 2000 I just create a txt source and pick whichever CSV and transform to a temp sql table. This has always worked just fine with no problems.
So we have a new server with sql 2005 installed. I go through the "migrate dts 2000" wizard and pull in all my DTSs from sql 2000. The first thing I see that needs to be fixed is "connection 1" which is my CSV connection manager along with the flat file source.
I went through both the connection and the flat file source and tried to copy exactly what I do in sql 2000. When I preview the data or even execute this package I get bad data.
Here is what my CSV looks like:
"ACCT ","ACCOUNT DESCRIPTION ","ACCT TYPE","SCH NO","SC"
"9999Z","Balance By Source Offset",9
"87B","UTILITIES(NOT PHONE)U-C",7
72,"ADM-LEGAL/AUDIT/COLL EXP",7
315,"SALES TAX - VEHICLES LOCAL 1",3
"90A","INTEREST(NON FPLAN/MORT)/N-C",7
73,"MEALS & ENTERTAINMENT-ALL",7
"210A","REBATES RECEIVABLE",2,17,4
"5A@","# OF EXT WARR SALES-UC",10
"51N","N/C-VEHICLE INV MAINTENANCE",7
"87D","UTILITIES(NOT PHONE)SVC",7
"90B","INTEREST(NON FPLAN/MORT)U-C",7
317,"ACCRUED OTHER",3,75,4
This is what it looks like when I preview it inside the flat file connection manager:
ACCT ACCT DESC ACCT TYPE SCH NO SCTYPE
9999z blance by source... 9– – "87B" UTILITIES(NO... 7
So it is basically putting two rows of csv data into one row of SQL data. Now I realize my CSV isn't in the correct format because it doesn't have the extra commas at the end of a row IF the columns are null. It seems that 2005 doesn't recognize the carriage return/line feed. It puts the actual ascii characters in the preview. Once I execute the package it changes the ascii characters into blank spaces. My big issue is, why did this work just fine in 2000 but I can't get clean data in 2005? I'm completely clueless now, I have no idea where to go with this. Its impossible to change the output of the CSVs I get. There is literally no other options. I kinda get what I get with them. Why is this happening?
IS this procedure exactly correct?

Line 10 does not say go to advanced but that is the only place I see Integration Services to install.
Can't make a Maint. Plan for backups because the server is missing SSIS..

Any one knows if I can restore a SQL2000 database backup file on SQL2005? and the DB structure will be upgraded?

Hi,
Can a sever with OS win2003 install both sql2000 & sql2005? is there any problems with 2 differenct versions in one sever.
Thank you. :)
I have installed MSDE2000 (name: mypcsql2000, port 1433) and sql2005 Express (mypcsql2005, port 1434) on my WinXP.
I'm developing some application and I need to test both server.
It has worked fine about 1 year, but last month i got error message.
When i'm trying to connect to SQL2005 from my application or import data from Excel, i get error message:
[DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Invalid Connection()).]Invalid connection.
I can access SQL2005 with Management Studio or cmd line (sqlcmd). But not with Excel (or with my application).
MSDE2000 works fine, i haven't any problems.
Last weekend I have reinstalled my WinXP and also MSDE2000, SQL2005 Express.
Worked fine, but when turn on automatic updates ON and afterwards installed latest updates, the problem is here again...
Any idea to solve this problem?
(sorry for my english...)
Hi,
Is there any difficulties I should be aware of? I'm not running DTS and I think my DB is relatively simple. I've googled and not found anything that sticks out as a problem.
We are getting a new server because we want more RAM, and better upgrade options. The hosting company recommended 64bit SQL, so I am thinking of following their recommendations.
I am upgrading from a 2 x p4 2.8ghz xeons to 1 x Intel 5130 dual core 64 bit chip. I also will be going from 2 gigs to 4 gigs of RAM.
Any thoughts I would love to hear.
Thanks!
Hello!!
we use SQL2000(64bit) and we are considering our system to apply SQL2005
so i tested two SQL-Server on One Machine by installing each instance of them.
The RESULT..
i can't find difference of performance between two instance.
is there no impoving in Database engine?

I am a IT Manager.I have question:
There is a database was created on SQL Server.
I want to learn if I restore the database to SQL 2005 then I want to get backup then I want to restore to SQL 2000.
shortly: SQL 2000 sever-> SQL 2005->SQL 2000 SERVER
Can I do that?
If I do that is there someting missed?

I have a distributor setup on SQL Server 2005 (9.0.3042) and am trying to create a publication on SQL Server 2000 (8.0.2040) which receives the following error in my production environment:
Msg 8526, Level 16, State 2, Procedure sp_addpublication, Line 802
Cannot go remote while the session is enlisted in a distributed transaction that has an active savepoint.
The interesting part of this equation is that I was able to get this to work without error in my DEV (development) environment and well as my QAT (test) environment. This end result was that my distributor was SQL 2005, my publisher was SQL 2000 and my pull subscriber was SQL 2005. I have been diligently comparing our production environment to my other environment and have yet to find differences.
Has anyone else seen an error similiar to this? Any insight would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Max
Hi,
We have two systems, one working on SQL2000 and other working on SQL2005. In SQL2000, there is JOB which needs to execute a JOB in SQL2005, get feedback based (success or failure) and proceed accordingly.
I am not sure the best practice to call SQL2005 job from SQL2000 job. Both the server's run undersame domain account.
please help, thanks

Hello,
Restoring a DB from sql 2005 (which is located on my local computer) into sql 2000 (which is located on the server) and I am getting this type of message:

Hi,
I'm running a VB6 app with MDAC 2.8 on Windows Server 2003 SP1.
I create an ADO recordset with a SELECT statement which returns an empty recordset.
I then add 2 new records to it with AddNew and later perform an UpdateBatch.
Before the SQL upgrade it worked fine but now errors with:
'Cannot convert a char value to money. The char value has incorrect syntax.'
I did a SQL Trace to find out what the Updatebatch was actualling sending to SQL (listed below).
This works fine when I run it on Query Analyser using SQL 2000 but fails on SQL 2005.
I worked out the problem is linked to the columns NewValue and OldValue both are varchar 70.
The first insert has them defined varchar(7) and varchar(1). This insert succeeds, but the second insert has the columns defined as varchar(18) and varchar(12). This one fails (unless they only contains numbers!).
I'm confused.
I've read that sp_executesql has changed for SQL2005.
Any ideas anyone?
Thanks
Howard
