SQL Server 2005 Standard Media

Jan 31, 2008

I am new to the forums, so hopefully this is the correct place for this question.

Is there somewhere to download the media for SQL Server 2005 Standard? I already have my licensing, and am wondering if you can avoid purchasing the media discs. I have done this with Windows Vista and Office 2007 in the past.

SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition - Installation Media

Mar 30, 2007

Hiya,

We were recently let down by our software supplier who have happily provided us with a single processor license for SQL Server 2005 before the weekend.. but haven't been able to provide any installation media.

I notice on the website that there is a trial edition of the Enterprise edition for download, that can be converted into a full installation by using a valid license key.

My question is.. would I be able to use that trial edition with my license key? Or are they fundamentally different?

If that isn't an option.. is there anywhere where I can obtain installation files for standard edition?


Thanks in advance,

SQL Server 2005 Trying To Restore Get Error Media Family Incorrectly Formed

Jul 30, 2007

I am trying to restore a 2005 backup to a 2005 database on another server. This has worked for me before. I have tried to take the backup 5 times now and each time I get the error media family incorrectly formed. Since I have successfully backed up and restored before between these same two databases I do not understand what is wrong now.

I found other questions with this error; however, they were taking a 2000 backup to a 2005 database. I am using a backup of a 2005 database to a 2005 restore.

How should I begin to debug this problem?

Thanks

Does SQL 2005 Purchase Come With Access To SQL 2000 Media?

Mar 13, 2007

My company is planning to purchase a SQL2005 standard Processor license (unlimited users - about $5000)

Does anyone know if we can obtain SQL2000 media along with the purchase. Because of the app we are running and its stage of development, we have to install and run SQL2000 for about 6 months before we can run Sql2005. We dont want to purchase SQL2000 for such a short term use.

I asked a DELL rep to help me with this over a month ago and he still has no answers for me.

Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.

Upgrade From SQL Server 2005 Eval Copy To SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition

Jul 23, 2007



I have a SQL Server 2005 evaluation that has already been installed and setup on a server. I believe it originally had a 180 day eval. There have been numerous databases and users added as well as maintenance plan created...



The eval was put on the machine as an interim solution while waiting for paper work and order processiing things to happen. All the paperwork and ordering... have been completed and I now have the real SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition license key ....



I am very new to SQL Server and need to determine ...

1. Can I update the eval copy to become permanently licensed?

2. Would I want to upgrade the eval to permanent? Will I lose any capabilities by keeping the current eval setup?



If it is reasonable to keep the eval setup

3. How do I go about entering the license key to make it permanent?



If it is necessary to install the new Standard Edition...

4. How do I install it while maintaining the already defined databases, data, users, maintenance plan...



Thanks in advance for any and all help.

SQL Server Standard 2005, SQL Mobile 2005 Data Encryption Issues

Jul 26, 2007

Hi,

I have a central database server that is runnning on SQL 2005 standard edition and Windows server 2003 standard as OS.

I realise that I can use SQL statements to encrypt and decrypt the data inside the standard SQL.

However, how do I read and write the data via an web application coded in C#.net and is also running on the same machine?

Another issue is, I need to replicate some of the data in this SQL standard over to a SQL mobile running on a mobile device running on Windows CE 5.0.

The mobile device also needs to read and write data to the encrypted data via a C#.net application.

Question is, with all these requirements to be met, can I use AES? I know that AES is not available on Windows XP and Windows Server 2000 and I cant find AES in the .net compact framework.

how do i go about ensuring security? how do I ensure that the symmetric key is the same both on the SQL standard and SQL mobile?

thank you.

Upgrade From SQL Express 2005 Report Server With Advanced Services To SQL 2005 Standard Fails

Feb 25, 2008

I am trying to upgrade SQL Server Express 2005 Report Server to SQL 2005 Standard and it fails with the following error:

SQL Server Setup did not have the administrator permissions required to copy a file: C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.8Reporting ServicesReportServer
ssrvpolicy.config. To continue, verify that the file exists, and either grant administrator permissions to the account currently running Setup or log in with an administrator account. Then run SQL Server Setup again.

After I click OK on the message, this whole path where the upgrade is bieng installed dissapears C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.8Reporting Services. The error is a bit missleading because the file that it is trying to copy rssrvpolicy.config does appear in that upgrade folder so I am not sure why it would try to copy a file that has already been copied.

I was able to upgrade the Database Engine instance fine but can't upgrade Reporting Services due to that error. I have verified that the account that ran the setup had the administrator permissions. Your prompt reply to my question would be greatly appreciatted.

SQL Server 2005 Express And Visual Studio 2005 Standard

Jul 9, 2006

Hi everyone,I am trying to connect to SQL Server 2005 Express with Advanced Services from Visual Studio 2005 Standard Edition.  I have SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition but it took up so much space and resources on my computer that I didn't want to put it back on there.  So I put the SQL Express on there and while the Management Studio application connects just fine, VS 2005 will not.  Oddly enough, VS 2005 connected just fine to SQL 2005 Standard.  I have enabled shared memory, named pipes and TCP/IP.  I have set up SQL Express to accept remote connections on named pipes and TCP/IP.  And I have tried running SQL Express as the Local System Account, as a Local Service and as a Network Service.  Nothing.  I have tried feeding the Server Name is the Data Connections dialog in Visual Studio my SQL Express instance as (local)/SQLEXPRESS, localhost/SQLEXPRESS, and {computername}/SQLEXPRESS where {computername} is the name of my local computer which SQL Express is (allegedly) running on.  And I cannot get the list of databases on that server.There is probably something very simple that I have left out.  Can anyone see what it is?Thanks!

Installing SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition When Express 2005 Is Already On Server

Sep 30, 2007

I need to install SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition on a new Windows Server 2003 machine that has SQL Server 2005 Express Edition installed by a backup application (Backup Exec). Will I need to uninstall the express edition in order to install the standard edition? Can the two coexist as separate instances or will the standard edition installation simply upgrade the express installation?

Thanks

Using Aspnetdb In SQL Server 2005 Standard

Dec 25, 2005

Hi,
I am not using Express 2005 on my production server, rather I'm using SQL Server 2005 standard edition.  So I have my site working perfectly on the development server, but once I publish it, the builtin aspnetdb that I use for logging in and such doesn't work.
I have another database my app uses and it works fine once I changed the connection string.  So I think I just need to change the connection string all the fancy new login controls use.  But I can't figure out how to do that.
Any help would be much appreciated.  Thanks!

Instance Name Of SQL Server 2005 Standard

Apr 29, 2007



I'm new to SQL Server, and have just started to work through the MS Press ADO.Net 2.0 Step-by-Step book.



In the beginning of the book, at the point where the Add Connection box comes up, it says to type in the Server Name text box, (local)SQLEXPRESS, as the book takes for granted you have SQL Express installed, and hence this is the instance name.



I have Visual Studio 2005 Professional, and SQL Server 2005 Standard installed. What would the instance of SQL Server be in this case?



Any hope would be greatly appreciated.
