Hi!
I have tried installing SQL Server 7.0 on my Win 98 machine. My machine has all the latest service packs and I think it is reasonably up to date. I've tried installing from the disc 3 times and it fails to install:
the Server Network Utility and Service Manager.
As a result, I am unable to register my local machine as a SQL server.
Any ways around this? Quick fixes?
Thanks!

Our network people changed our machine name one character without our permission, they say their naming standards can't handle an "underscore" we put in our name...now the SQL Server won't run because it doesn't recognize the name of the machine.
Is there a way of bypassing or telling SQL server that we changed the name without having to reload all of our information?
We have a development server that will only run SQL Server from a DOS command prompt. Each time I reboot the server the services don't autostart, and I am unable to start them manually using Service Manager. Does anyone know what I can do to fix this problem? Thanks
Hope someone can help: by default, there's an entry for 'public' in server permissions (right-click server in Management Studio > Properties > Permissions), which has 1 selection: 'View All Databases' is set to 'grant'. I wanted to disable this permission, and so unfortunately unchecked the 'grant' tickbox but forgot to tick the 'deny' tickbox. What appears to have happened is the entire 'public' entry has been removed, meaning I can't go back and reselect 'grant' (or 'deny') for 'View All Databases'. I'd really like to get the 'public' role to reappear... Is that possible?
I've tried to install the server part of SQL Server 7 under both win 98 and w2k professional, but both times i get an error message telling me that "The Enterprise Edition server component cannot be installed on the_name_of_the_os using this cd. Only client components will be available for installation." Anyone got a quick and easy solution to this problem?
I recently received my free evaluation to SQL Server 7. I installed it on my windows 98 computer and I am able to start the services to SQL server. However, when I go into enterprise manager I am unable to get connected to be able to begin creation on a database. I am also unable to create a proper DSN connection to the SQL server database. I am doing all of this on my local computer and I am unable to get it working I just need to be able to connect to SQL on my local computer.
Please help. I am not a beginner to creating databases I have done numerous Access databases and know how to create DSN's but I have never done one for SQL Server 7. If any one knows how to do this please let me know or if their is a good tutorial on how to do that.
When installing SQL6.5 on a Win98 client, I get an error:
"A critical error has occurred. The INF SETUP has a badly formed file description line in section [UtilDLLs]. This error prevents setup from continuing."
I can use the same CD to load to any 95 or NT machine, but it chokes on 98.
We've a denormalised database (SQL Server 05) with around half a million rows, feeding a fairly simple Analysis Services cube. We were hoping to use the Excel 07 DM add-in as a user-friendly interface to lots of people, but as far as I can tell we need to first import the data into an Excel 07 worksheet. I realise 2007 has a 1mn limit, but the rows are wide, downloading GBs is not possible, and I have concerns about Excel performance and reliability at these volumes, especially on a desktop.
Is there any way to use the data mining functionality without having the data in Excel?
If not, what would be the simplest/quickest/cheapest way of providing this functionality (or subsets of it) to people who know Excel but not data mining?
Thanks for any guidance or corrections, Chris
PS. Would downloading subsets of the data work, along the lines of the article entitled Sampling Nested Tables ( http://www.sqlserverdatamining.com/ssdm/Default.aspx?tabid=102&Id=14 )?
I have tried everything that me and the net guys could come with and still no luck. All the WinXP Pro boxes see the server, can talk to it, the whole nine yards. All the Win98 boxes simply won't. I've checked the SQL Server instance. It appears ok. I've checked my application code to be sure I was using the IP address instead of the actual server name to avoid DNS problems. Downloaded and installed the latest SQL server drivers on all but one of the Win98 machines. Same with the latest Novell drivers. Everything worked Friday (no changes to application or DB between then and now).
What else can it be?
System specs: Novell backbone (5.x and 6.x) Win2000 Server with multiple SQL Server 2000 instances running (including the one I'm trying to connect to) Mix of WinXPPro and Win 98 on desktops Win98 running Novell 3.4 client WinXP Pro running Novel 4.9 client Application is VFP 8 SP1 Latest MDAC (2.8) on two Win98 and 2.5 on another

Hi allIs it possible to install MS SQL Client 2005 on Windows 98 ? I tried to dothis today but I got error with informations about rejects in libraries.What should I do to install it ?Thanks for your answer
I have just started to learn SQL Server 2005, and am currently using the MCTS SQL Server 2005 Self-Paced Training Kit. I am literally at the very start, and already seem to have hit a snag and can't figure it out. From browsing here in the past I recall people here seemed quite clued up, and I was hoping someone might be able to assist.
I am using SQL Server 2005 Ent. Edtn. (trial) on Win XP Pro (SP2). I am basically trying to run a sample script copied from book to create a database and primary, secondary and log files. Whilst I have the theory down, and thought I understood the SQL (have used other DBMSs in the past, MySQL/ACCESS etc.) I am getting an error when trying to run the following code when connected to the default instance on my PC. The code I am trying to run is:
create database Sales
ON
primary
(name = SalesPrimary,
filename = E:Sales_DataSalesPrimary.mdf,
size = 50mb,
MAXSIZE = 200,
filegrowth = 20),
Filegroup SalesFG
( name = SalesData1,
filename = F:Sales_DataSalesData1.ndf,
size = 200mb,
maxsize = 800,
filegrowth = 100),
( name = SalesData2,
Filename = F:Sales_DataSalesData2.ndf,
Size = 400mb,
Maxsize = 1200,
Filegrowth = 300),
Filegroup SalesHistoryFG
( name = SalesHistory1,
filename = F:Sales_DataSalesHistory1.ndf,
size = 100mb,
maxsize = 500,
filegrowth = 50)
LOG ON
(name = Archlog1,
Filename = G:Sales_DataSalesLog.ldf,
size = 300mb,
maxsize = 800,
filegrowth = 100)
I find I get the following error message:
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 5 Incorrect syntax near 'E'. Msg 132, Level 15, State 1, Line 16 The label 'F' has already been declared. Label names must be unique within a query batch or stored procedure. Msg 132, Level 15, State 1, Line 22 The label 'F' has already been declared. Label names must be unique within a query batch or stored procedure.
Anyone have any ideas? Your help is greatly appreciated!

I have two partitions on win xp. These are C and D. C is a system drive and this is where sql server 2005 is installed as well.
Is it possible to install and configure the MSDTC resource in a SQL Server 2000 cluster after SQL is installed and running?
When I recently went through a rebuild of my cluster, I forgot to install the resource before installing SQL Server. Now, if I install and bring online the MSDTC resource the SQL disk groups will not fail over correctly. The SQL Server resource will not come online.
Thanks in advance for any help. I would really like to avoid rebuilding again.
Hi all, Im new here so il start with a little introduction of myself, My name is Arjan im 19 years old from Holland, and i work for a company to compleet my ICT Education.

My boss gave me a server with server 2003 standard and Sql server 2005 and visual studio 2005 installed already, he asked me if i could figure out how the 'new' reporting services work, Im pretty new to SQL and the reporting service but i figured out i had to install asp.net / frameworks and IIS.
So right now i wanna start the Reporting Services Configuration Manager and i get an error that says 'Invalid namespace' and when im trying to approach by using my browser i get 'page not found' so obviously their is Alot wrong. I asked my boss if i could not reinstall everything and do it in the correct order (IIS / ASP.net / Frameworks before installing SQL server 2k5 but that was not an option because we dont seem to have the cd's anymore.
The server is not connected to any network or the internet.
My Question:
Is their any way to fix this? and if yes could anyone tell me where to start

Hi, I am working on installing SP2 for SQL Server 7.0. Do I have to install the SP2 on every SQL Server 7.0 Client machine? or do I have to do anything on the client machines? Thank you.
Whenever we install SQL Server 7.0 on a box with 6.5 on it, the installation always fails at the last hurdle. It gives the following error:
Microsoft SQL Server Version Switch An error occured which prevented a succesfull version switch. Please make sure the Registry Editor, Query Analyzer and ISQL are closed, and try running vswutch.exe again.
We've followed all technet article recommendations to no avail. Any ideas ?
I've been trying to re-install 7.0(on my test server) but duuring the wizard setup it says: "Unable to find path HKEKY_LOCAL_MACHINE_SOFTWAREMicrosoftMSSQLSERVERSe tup. A uninstall was done but I don't understand why it won't just install from the CD.
Also How can you change the server name in EM, under the SQL Server Group you have the server name, i.e ServerA. When I put 2000 on the same machine that wouldn't do the re-install for 7.0 it shows the server name as ServerAServerA and I just want to rename it to ServerA. But in EM under 'Registered SQL Server Properties' the server name field is not active for modification.
I would appreciate any help to the up-most. Thanks
I installed SQL 7.0 in windows 2000, at first it was working fine but after a few hours it cannot connect to my database.
I reformat my pc coz I was so desperate to make it work but after reformatting SQL won't work still. It cannot connect with my database which is also the same computer. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling it over and over but I still face the same problem.
The SQL Server Service Manager there's nothing in the Service boxes.
I tried installing SQL Server 2005 for educational purposes. When I double cliked Setup.exe I get the messege "You computer does not meet service pack levels ....."
Hello:We just leased a dedicated server and now want to install SQL Server2000. We though we could just copy the contents of the CD to a folderon the server and run AUTORUN. While it does load the splash screen,when we click install SQL Server Components, the demoshield splashscreen comes up and then disappears. The install stops.Any ideas? Is this even possible?Thanks in advance.Jason Sweet
