SQL Server 2008 :: How To Remove / Uninstall Management Data Warehouse
Aug 12, 2010
I have tried to set up the Management Data Warehouse on one of our production servers, but it is not working (not collecting any data) so I want to completely remove it and try the installation again. There does not seem to be any remove/uninstall option.
How to completely remove the Management Data Warehouse?

Hi all, One year ago, I did "Ruuning Setup to Install AdventureWorks Sample Databases and Sample" to install "AdventureWorks" in my SQL Server Management Studio Express. Now, It just have the name "AdventureWorks" on and no contents (no tables, schemas, etc.) in it. In my Control Panel, Add or Remove Programs, AdventureWorksDB (162.00 MB) is still there and AdventureWorks (Windows Installer Package [27,992 KB]) is in my C:/drive.
(1) Should I delete the name "AdventureWorks" in my SQL Server Management Studio Express, and remove AdventureWorksDB (162.00 MB) from the Add or Remove Program, before I re-install AdventureWorks, AdventureWorksDW, and Adventure Works DW sample databases and samples from Windows Installer Package [27,992 KB]? Is my old AdventureWorks (Windows Installer Package [27,992 KB]) still good and complete for installation? (2) SQL Server 2005 Books Online (September 2007) presents "Reinstalling Sample Databases from Script". But (i) I can not find the file instawdb.sql for reinstalling AdventureWorks from script and I do not have AdventureWorks OLTP in my C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90ToolsSamples folder, (ii) I can not find the file instawdwdb.sql for reinstalling AdventureWorksDW from script and I do not have AdventureWorks Data Warehouse in my C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90ToolsSamples folder either!!?? Please help and tell me what is the best way and some detailed instructions/tips to have AdvenureWorks, AdventureWorksDW, and Adventure Works DW sample databases and samples installed in my SQL Server Management Studio Express.
I tried to remove AdventureWorksDB in the "Add or Remove Programs" of Contol Panel and I got the following errors: (1) AdventureWorksDB Error 1326: Error getting file security: CProgram FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL1MSSQLGetLastError: 5. |OK| and (2) Add or Remove Programs Fatal Error during installation (after I clicked the |OK| button). Please help and tell me how I can solve this problem.
I am having trouble installing SQL Server 2005 Express. I was told to uninstall and reinstall clean but now SQL Server does NOT show in the Add/Remove Program list but when I try to install, my system says I already have SQL Server installed. I get error messages every time. Any ideas???
I'm presented with a problem where I have a database table which must be migrated via a "custom tool", moving the data into a new table which has special character requirements that didn't exist in the source database. My data resides in an SQL Server 2008R2 instance.
I envision a one-time query which will loop through selected records and replace the offending characters with --, however I'm having trouble understanding how this works.
There are roughly 2500 records which meet the criteria of "contains bad characters", frequently containing multiple separate bad chars, and the table contains roughly 100000 rows.
Special Characters are defined as #%&*:<>?/{}|~ and ..
While the field is called "Filename" it isn't always so, it is a parent/child table where foldernames are also stored.
The examples I'm finding are all oriented around SELECT statements, to change the output of what I see returned, however I'd rather just fix the entire column using an UPDATE. Initial testing using REPLACE fails because I don't always have a single character as the bad thing in a string.
In a better solution, I found an example using a User Defined Function to modify the output of a select, but I cannot use that UDF in an UPDATE.
My alternative is to learn enough C# to modify the "migration tool" to do this in-transit, but I know even less about C# than I do of SQL.
I gather I want to use @@ROWCOUNT to loop through the rows but I really can't put it all together in a cohesive way.
I have Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Toolkit installed but there is something from with the installation since every time that I try and create a Report Server Project It gives me error
Could not load file or assembly "Microsoft.ReportingServices.Designer, Version 9.0.242.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89845dcd8080cc91' or one of its dependencies. The system cannopt find the file spesified.
How can I reinstall it or repair the installation so it will work. I have uninstalled every SQL2000 component in Add Remove Programs and reinstalled them. The problem is however that I cannot see an entry for "Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Toolkit" in the Add Remove programs in Windows XP Profesional.
Can someone please help me. Maybe tell me where the uninstall file is located on disk??
This is probably easy for some who have done it, but I have an installed Instance of SQL Server 2008 Express or SQL Server 2008 R2 Express I'll call Instance CCC and need to remove it. I have two other Express instances I'll call Instance AAA and Instance BBB. I want to uninstall Instance CCC without affecting the other two instances or the software that uses them. Instance CCC should have been installed as a SQL Server 2012 Express instance, so I need to remove the 2008 Instance of CCC and reinstall it as 2012. In all cases, I'm talking about SQL Server Express. Full SQL Server is not installed.
The Instances are all installed on a Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard server.
I have read that I can do this through Control Panel > Programs and Features, but that I can corrupt or mess up the other instances (AAA and BBB) if I don't do it right. I'm uneasy about this, not having done it before, and do not want to affect the users of the AAA and BBB instances!
I have a requirement to implement CDC for 50+ tables to implement incremental data changes warehouse/reporting rather than exporting the whole table data. The largest table is having more than half a billion records.
The warehouse use a daily copy of OLTP db (daily DB refresh). How can I accomplish this. Is there a downside in implementing CDC just for the sake of taking incremental changes on the tables?
Is there any performance impact if we enable CDC on OLTP db?
Can we make use of the CDC tables on the environment we do daily db refresh so that the queries don't hit OLTP database?
What is the best way to implement CDC to take incremental changes for reporting.
Hi,I would like to know if anyone out there really uses SQLServer 2000 (which edition?) to hold the data for a datawarehouse? How much data does it handle efficiently?TIAFrank
I downloaded AdventureWorksDB.msi Microsoft and struggled to install it in my SQL Server Management Studio Express 8 months ago. I forgot the AdventureWorks examples and other stuff were in my C: drive. Recently, I downloaded a new AdventureWork.msi and executed it to install without removing the old stuff from the "Add and Remove" of Control Panel. Now my AdventureWorks database is screwed-up in my termical PC that is linked with Microsoft NT 4 LAN System!!! Please kindly help and tell me how I can revome the scewed-up AdventureWorksDB in my terminal PC.
I am using SQL Server Express 2008 Management Studio & in the databases list are some databases that are non existent (have been deleted in Windows Explorer). How do I remove them as trying to delete when logging in using Windows authentication fails?
I have created a phone list and am using a union to be able to display letter category. However, what I would like to do is only show the letter category if their is an employee with the corresponding last name.
For example, if someone does not have a last name starting with "Z", then "Z" should not show up on my report.
SELECT LastName, FirstName, Dept, Phone UNION ALL
SELECT v.letter,NULL,NULL,NULL,NULL FROM (VALUES('A'),('B'),('C'),('D'),('E'),('F'),('G'),('H'),('I'),('J'),('K'),('L'),('M'),('N'),('O'),('P'),('Q'),('R'),('S'),('T'),('U'),('V'),('W'),('X'),('Y'),('Z')) AS v(letter) ORDER BY vchLastName, vchFirstName
'Banquets - All Day' as revName, SUM(t.c_items_total) AS Banquet_Total, SUM(t.cover_count) as Total_Covers, -- (t.c_items_total) / (t.cover_count) as AvgPer_Cover--
[Code] ....
The output needs to be grouped by the t.c_items_total...I just need the avg per cover (person) / items_total.
When I save my output (from a query I ran) to a text file, there seems to be rows of spaces. Is there a way i can just kill off any spaces at the end of my query? Like rtrim or something?
I am working with a bunch of records that have duplicates on the Persid and the intPercentID where there are duplicates I want to remove when I stick them in the temp table, I tried join on tempo table and doing not exists but still inserts, so now I am trying a merge but same thing. how can I keep duplicates from being inserted in the temp table. I made a cursor as well but its slow as heck, but it does work. trying better ways.
Create table #TempStr (STRId int not null Identity(1,1) primary key, Persid int, percentId int, dtCreated datetime, CreatedBy int)
INSERT #TempStr (Persid, percentId, dtCreated, CreatedBy) select intPersonnelID, intPercentID, dtSubmitted, intSubmittedBy from tblSTR whereintpercentId in (61,62) group by intPercentID, intPersonnelID, dtSubmitted, intSubmittedBy UNION ALL
0 AS SalaryMin, 2088 AS SalaryMax, 2088 AS BillableHours, 'Month' AS SalaryPaidCode, 0 AS SalaryBreakdownHourly, 0 AS SalaryBreakdownDaily,
[Code] ...
While outputting to CSV.file
I got :0,2088,2088,"Month",0,0,0,0,0,0,0,"N/A","N/A","G","N/A","Exempt","Other",1
How can I remove all double quotes in the string fields? so that O can get the result as below while the output 0,2088,2088,Month,0,0,0,0,0,0,0,N/A,N/A,G,N/A,Exempt,Other,1
I am new to SQL and I haven't written any scripts in the past. I thought I would give it a go. Basically, I am trying to write a script that will check if a database has more than one log files, free the VLFs that belong to the secondary log files and then remove them. I created a database named rDb as this link suggests and followed the steps.
[URL] ....
It works. However, I want to have to run just 1 script that will do the entire job. This is what I have gotten so far and it doesn't work:
create table #tempsysdatabase( File_id int, file_guid varchar(50), type_desc varchar (20), data_space_id int, name nvarchar (50), state int,
I need to remove "rows affected" text from results as shown below from posted Sp. I am using set nocount on but its not working as expected.
Create Procedure DailyCheckList As SET NOCOUNT ON Declare @EmailSub varchar(500),@dt varchar(100),@Msg varchar(max),@M varchar(max) set @dt= convert(varchar(20),GETDATE(),107)
I just upgraded my Sql Server to 2008 and I was hoping that the link found in this page would provide the download to SSMSE for Sql Server 2008, but it redirects me to 2005 version. I don't any instances running with Sql Server 2005 that I could access through SSMSE 2005, so I can't use it. Does anyone have the link for download to SSMSE 2008? Or should I downgrade? And if, how can I downgrade? Thank you very much, sorry by my misspellings.
I created account with permissions in order my program (I use C#.net) can connect to SQL Server 2008 by this account But I don't want that user can use this account to login to DB by SQL Management Studio for security purpose So how to prevent user login to SQL Management Studio ?
Can I setup "db_denydatareader" to MASTER db to prevent the access ?
One of our database is in simple recovery model, and usually generating more than 220 GB log file (.ldf) every week. We are shrinking log file many times to release the space.
But as its not advisable I am looking for any other options. I suggested to change the recovery model to Full and start T-log backup, but client dont want to change recovery model.
Is there any way to manage Log file of Simple recovery model to maintain disk space?
I have created a trigger on a table that get's too many updates so to analyze what records and what columns get updates I have coded a trigger that inserts into a table the record key and a flag on each column to let me know what is updates. Now that I am presenting the data to the developers I have been asked to provide the update / insert or delete statement
So on my trigger I have tried using dynamic management views but its returning the actual trigger code not the parent SQL Script that triggered it.
This is what I am using.
select@dDate as dDate, dest.[dbid], dest.[objectid], dest.[number], dest.[encrypted], case when sder.[statement_start_offset] > 0 --the start of the active command is not at the beginning of the full command text thencasesder.[statement_end_offset]
Installed Server 2008 (64bit) Installed VS2008 (+SQL 2005 Express, by default)
I've always installed SQL 2005 Dev (including the SQL Management Studio) before installing VS. Now I am trying to install just the management studio on this machine without success.
I tried installing the SQL workstation tools package from the SQL 2005 DVD but the installer detects the tools installed by SQL express (osql, etc.., but no management studio GUI) and the installer refuses to install anything else. I also tried downloading the separate installer for SQL management studio but it doesn't like something also: first thing the installer does is display this mesage:
"Installation of this product failed because it is not supported on this operating system For more information on supported configurations, see the product documentation."
Any way to do this without having to reinstall VS?

I downloaded and performed a full install of SQL Server Express 2008 Nov CTP. It was installed on a fresh installation of Windows Vista Enterprise x64.
During setup, I checked the 'Client Tools' box which has the description: "Includes management and development tools: SQL Server Management Studio, SQL Server Configuration Manager, SQL Server Profiler, and Database Engine Tuning Advisor"
The installation ran fine with no errors. After install I looked for the Management Studio but couldnt find it anywhere. No SQL Server Profiler or Database Tuning Advisor either. The only tool that appears to have installed is the SQL Server Configuration Manager.
If I check my Start Menu, the only 2008 items that exist are Microsoft SQL Server 2008 >
Configuration Tools >

I need a recommendation on a data modeling tool that can be used with a data warehouse. My warehouse is running SQL 2012.
Here is my challenge: Most of the tables in the warehouse do not have primary keys and none of the tables have foreign keys on them. However, there are indexes and unique keys/indexes on the tables. I am looking for a tool that I can create virtual relationships on how the data is related, so it is visually easier for the ETL developers to write the code.
I have looked at both ER/Studio 11 and ERwin 9.6. Neither of them do it exactly the way I want it too. However, ER/Studio is pretty close.
I am working on to create a data warehouse. I have made a database which will be the data warehouse and will consist of dimension and fact tables. I know that other than dimension and fact table a data warehouse should also consist of a meta data, now my question is what should be the structure of metadata and all the information it should have?
