I'm not finding a definitive answer to my question as to whether or not I can run the development edition of SQL Server 2005 on my brand new pc with this operating system. No one seems to know for sure and I can't afford to pay for tech. support. It should be supported but I don't know where to get a 'real' answer.
thx,

View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm thinking of storing a lot of images, Word documetns, PDF, and emails as media in SQL Server 2005. Is it equiped to handle a lot of media? Or is it still preferred to store media separately on a file server?
View 6 Replies View RelatedI 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.
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,

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
We are getting error and we are aware that there should be 2 files but we are able to find the second file,how to search all files(2) so that we may restore DB.

Can I install SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition on XP Media Center Edition?
Thanks.
Hi, I'm from Argentina. I made a backup of my database from ServerA (SQL 2000) and trying to restore it to ServerB (SQL 2005) I'm getting the following error: "The media set has 2 media families but only 1 are provided".
Any ideas? Thanks.
Hallo there,
I just upgraded from Windows XP Pro to Windows Vista Bussiness and tried to reinstall SQL Server 2005 Developers Edition. After the installation i downloaded (using microsoft windows update) and installed all the service packs for sql and vista available.
My problem is when i open sql server management studio and try to connect to my default instance using windows authentication and database engine, an 18456 error occurs.
I enabled all the protocols and all the ports
I disabled windows firewall and antivirus (eset nod32)
I installed all service packs available
I have also installed Visual Studio 2005 without installing sqlexpress
But nothing happens!
Please i am very desperate, any information will be gratefully accepted.
This is my installation Information
Code Snippet

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.

Hello everybody!
I hope that someone could help me.
I have a problem when i start sincronyzing with the emulator of MSVS2005 to SQL2005 in Windows Vista. I have the same program in the emulator, but sincronyzing with windows XP Pro and no problem...
I configure the connection to use the IUSR.
The source code that i use:
repl.InternetUrl = @"http://laptop/SQLMobileIIS/sqlcesa30.dll";
repl.Publisher = @"laptop";
repl.PublisherDatabase = @"database";
repl.PublisherSecurityMode = SecurityType.NTAuthentication;
repl.Publication = @"Pubdatabase";
repl.Subscriber = @"SQLMobile";
repl.SubscriberConnectionString = @"Data Source='" + nomeFicheiroBD + "';Password='3409'";
The error that returns is:
"Failure to connect to SQLServer with provided connection information. SQL Server does not exist, access is denied because the IIS user is not a valid user on the SQL Server, or the password is incorrect"
Does anybody knows what i can do?
HELP I NEED SOMEBODY TO HELP!

Hi, hope someone can help...
I'm trying to install SQL Server 2000 on my XP Media Center laptop and keep getting the "this operting system is not supported message"
Any ideas?
Many thanks....
I have:
A server computer running SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition.
A industrial computer running SQL Server 2005 Express Edition.
And now also a Psion WorkAboutPro with CE 5 that should run SQL Server Compact Edition.
The industrial computer syncs its data with the server, basically saying "this has happened".
Now I want the Psion to sync with the industrial computer, but this sync must two-way.
I have tried to find a guide or something that can tell me "do this to sync" but the information i have found is sketchy at best.
If someone could point me in the right direction of a guide or something else it would be much appreciated.

Any pointers here would be appreciated.

My server is a dual AMD x64 2.19 GHz with 8 GB RAM running under Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition with service pack 1 installed. We have SQL 2000 32-bit Enterprise installed in the default instance. AWE is enabled using Dynamically configured SQL Server memory with 6215 MB minimum memory and 6656 maximum memory settings.
I have now installed, side-by-side, SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition in a separate named instance. Everything is running fine but I believe SQL Server2005 could run faster and need to ensure I am giving it plenty of resources. I realize AWE is not needed with SQL Server 2005 and I have seen suggestions to grant the SQL Server account the 'lock pages in memory' rights. This box only runs the SQL 2000 and SQL 2005 server databases and I would like to ensure, if possible, that each is splitting the available memory equally, at least until we can retire SQL Server 2000 next year. Any suggestions?
We have a financial software package that has been certified for SQL 2005 and Windows 2003 server. Will SQL 2005 run on a Windows 2000 server? I don’t want to build a new server at this time unless I really have too.
Thanks, Al
Hello,
I want to actualice my SQL Server and i´m asking if it´s posible to update all the hotfix trough the web update.microsoft.com, there is any automatic way in order to update SQL Server?
If there isn´t, What is the last hostfix?
Thanks
At first I thought it was just me, but has anyone else noticed that SQL 2005 suffers a performance hit when you install Windows Server 2003 SP2?
Since SP2, memory and hard drive usage has gone through the roof on a number of servers I use. It may just be coincidence... but it seems unlikely.
Hi, Is there any know issues upgrading to SQL Server 2005 on Windows 2000 OS. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Dear mems,
I have a problem, and i don't khow how to resolve, pls help me:
My server is Windows XP (not domain),
I work with SQL Server 2005, installed on my server,
I configurate my SQL SERVER connection is "Windows Authentication mode",
I add user "MyComputerguest" to MyServerSecutityLogins to accept connections from local network
I have many databases: Db1, Db2, Db3...
But, I don't know to configurate my SQL Server to achive these:
1) My clients using "SQL Server Managment Studio" connect to Databases Db2, Db3... on my Server, they can expand, modify, add new all Tables, Sp, functions of Db2, Db3.
2) My clients are not allow to access Db1.
2) My clients can add new Databases Db4, Db5, Db6... in the future and they have full permission on every Database which they create without my interfere.
Best regard,
if you run the following script it takes access from the windows admin from getting into sql server through windows auth. The issue is that the files that are attached logging as SA after that are read only. Is there any solution? When you try and switch the file to read write sql server gives an error saying that it cant read the mdf and ldf--gives a windows access error....

Hi all,I just asked some people to help me out and phone microsoft with thefollowing information, kindly they refused unless we setup a supportcontract with them first, for pre-sales information. (That really doesnot sound like good business sense to me - anyway here is our problem,if anyone could help thanks)."To tell and ask microsoft:We will be setting up a microsoft sql server 2000 instance running on awindows 2003 server.1) We need to check this can run alongside a microsoft 2003 sql server(either workgroup or standard edition), on the same machine. Are thereany .dll clashes if we do this? If there are can we run SQL Server2000, in a virtual machine running windows 2000 professional. (I have alicenced copy we can use for this).2) If we run one instance of 2000, and one of 2003 of the sql servers,can one use the processor licence model, and one use the CAL licencemodel."Thanks for any help, and any idea why they actually force you to usenews groups for pre-sales information?David
View 4 Replies View RelatedI am new to SQL server 2005
Windows 2003 Server and all client PCs are all on the same network. I installed SQL 2005 std version on windows server 2003 and created a database and tables in it.
I have two users, who want to connect to SQL server 2005 from their PCs (they have windows XP):
These are two things that I need to facilitate:
1) They want to be able to write queries using Query Designer and run from their PCs.
2) I created an MS Access database on my PC, I want to use Access database as a front end to the SQL server database. I will create queries, forms in Access DB, and I want to be able to get the data from SQL server Database to do this. I guess I can use ODBC to connect to tables in SQL server database.
3) I want to connect SQL server to Oracle database, and run oracle stored procedures. I want to load the results of oracle stored procedures into SQL server database tables. I guess I will use IIS for this.
Any suggestions are appreciated, especially with item number 1.

Hi All,
After I installed sql server 2005 64bit standard edition on Windows Server Enterprise 2008 64bit, I cannot connect to the sql instance using the sql management studio on the same machine!
I verified that:
service is running,
in surface area configuration: remote connections to local and remote are enabled, for TCP/IP and named pipes.
ran the command netstat -avn| findstr 49279 to make sure that the server is listening.
firewall is off, but this does not matter since I'm connecting locally to local instance
I'm using domain controller account to login to sql server / also tried the sa account.
what else can be wrong?
thanks.
