I then wanted to download and install the Adventure Works database located here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=E719ECF7-9F46-4312-AF89-6AD8702E4E6E&displaylang=en
Since I am running Vista 64-bit, I downloaded and installed AdventureWorksDB_x64. It wouldn't install. I got "Access is denied" and CREATE FILE error plus several others.
I then uninstalled it and downloaded AdventureWorksDB - this is the X86 version. It installed fine.

I was getting following error while creating a database or attaching a database to sql server 2005
"The file <<*.mdf>> is compressed but does not reside in a read-only database or filegroup.."
In this scenario, if you try sp_attach_db procedure, you get following error: Msg 5118, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
After little bit of troubleshooting, I found this was happening because of a folder option (of the folder where database file reside (in case of attach) or being created (in case of create)).
Go to folder properties, General Tab, click on Advanced button,check "Compress or Encrypt attributes" section. If the first option (Compress contents to save disk space) is checked, you get that error. Uncheck it to fix that problem.
I'm trying to attach a database file and it's associated database log file to SQL Server. However I am using the 'SQLDataRoot' value from the registry to determine the absolute path to the DB file and DB log file. Like so...
USE [master]
DECLARE @RC int
/* read path to SQL Server Express Data directory from registry */ DECLARE @sql_server_data_dir sysname EXEC @RC = master..xp_regread N'HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE',N'SOFTWAREMicrosoftMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1Setup',N'SQLDataRoot', @sql_server_data_dir OUTPUT SET @sql_server_data_dir = @sql_server_data_dir + N'Data'
CREATE DATABASE [PROJECT_DB] ON (FILENAME = '''' + @sql_server_data_dir + 'PROJECT_DB.mdf'''), (FILENAME = '''' + @sql_server_data_dir + 'PROJECT_DB_log.ldf''') FOR ATTACH;
GO
I have also tried using the sp_attach_db stored procedure as follows
I am very new to SQL and just completed an install of SQL 2005 Express. After install, I downloaded the Adventure Works database and attempted to attach through both the Object Browser (right-click 'Databases'--->'Attach') and by running the script that is located on the SQL download page where I got the Adventure Works db.
Here's the error that I get:
"Could not find row in sysindexes for database ID 8, object ID 1, Index ID 1. Run DBCC CHECKTABLE on sysindexes."
I have attempted to go through the help files, but unfortunately the above message is too cryptic for me and I have no idea what it's telling me.
I'm trying to attach a MSDE 2000 database to SQL Server 2005 Express.
I simply issue sp_detach_db XXX where XXX is the name of my MSDE database. Then sp_attach_db or create database ... with attach and both way gets the following message:

Description: Database 'XXX' cannot be upgraded because it is read-only or has read-only files. Make the database or files writeable, and rerun recovery.
I downloaded and ran AdventureWorks.msi into my SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE) one year ago.But I did not know how to attach it to my SSMSE then. Last week, I deleted it from the "Add or Remove" of Control Panel and I downloaded the new AdventureWork.msi and installed it my SSMSE. Today, I tried to use the Database Explorer of VB 2005 Express for the first Stored Procedure programming. I clicked on AdventureWorks.mdf and I got the following error: One or more files do not match the primary of the database. If you are attempting to attach a database, retry the operation with the correct files. If this is an existing database, the file may be corrupt and should be restored from a backup. Cannot open user default database. Login failed. Login failed for user 'CENADe1enxshc'. Log file 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataAdventureWorks_Data_log.ldf' does not match the primary file. It may be from a different database of the log may have been rebuilt previously. Please help and advise me how to correct this problem.
I'm learning to use BIDS, and have been going through the exercise in Chapter 19 of the book Professional SQL Server 2005 Integration Services. I'm probably in over my head with this since I've never used any SQL services/software before, but the company I'm interning at wants to build a workflow using SSIS, and for some reason unbeknownst to me, I volunteered to train myself for the task. I'm at a part in the book exercise where I'm editing one of the components of a Data Flow task - an OLE DB Destination. When I try to select the table/view in the editor for this, it gives me the following error:
An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file C:Documents and SettingsgroseMy DocumentsVisual Studio 2005ProjectsCase Study ExerciseCase Study ExerciseCase Study.database failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share.?
When I googled this, most people seemed to be getting it through other SQL software, so I'm not sure if the error has the same cause or not. I know that the file in the above error message already exists, but I don't understand why the task editor won't just let me select a database that already exists so I can complete the component. Can anyone explain this to me?
When I try to access the database diagrams in AdventureWorks, I get the following message:
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express ------------------------------
Database diagram support objects cannot be installed because this database does not have a valid owner. To continue, first use the Files page of the Database Properties dialog box or the ALTER AUTHORIZATION statement to set the database owner to a valid login, then add the database diagram support objects.
I am unable to attach the AdventureWorks database in management studio. I installed it when I installed SQL Server 2005 but can not find the mdf or ldf files anywhere. When I inserted the installation disks again to do a custom instal, and selected AdventureWorks, the response came back that it was already installed. What do I need to do to be able to attache this db in the management studio?
I have a database with 'sa' as the database owner. When I detach the database and than attach it, I get the following error: "The proposed new database owner is already a user in the database". When I look in my Management Studio, I see that my database is attached and it has my domain name as database owner.
So it seems like that whenever a database is attached, SQL Server changes the database owner to the user who is attaching the database.
Am I right or is it something else?
One more question, is it good or bad to put 'sa' as the database owner for all my databases?
How can I install the AdventureWorks database on my box where C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90ToolsSamples is missing? My SQL 2005 is currently without AdventureWorks OLT. I downloaded the Enterprise trial before uninstalling SQL2005Express. Please help. Thanks.
I'm not sure that I installed the AdventureWorks database when I originally installed SQL Server 2005 on my pc, but I thought I'd better go thru the tutorial and it uses AdventureWorks, so I put my CD in to install it and started the install.
When I got to the screen where you choose your components, I only checked the Sample Database selections at the bottom. Then I got a screen saying the components had already been installed. So I thought I must have installed AdventureWorks when I did the original install, but the tutorial says to go to Registered Servers and do a new Server Registration choosing the AdventureWorks database on the Connection Properties tab. But it isn't listed there when I browse the server's databases.
How can I get it installed?
NOTE: I had SQL Server installed on my C: drive, but had a major corruption issue, so I added a second hard drive to my system and installed XP on it. So my boot drive is now by G: drive, not C:. SQL Server and most of the other programs I use have been re-installed on G:. I DO have northwind.mdb & ldb files on my C: drive. Would it be easiest to just restore them to G:? Are they the AdventureWorks database? Thanks.
I downloaded AdventureWorksDB from the CodePlex website and tried to install it. When the install program tried to attach it to SQLEXPRESS, it gave the error (below). I've also tried attaching the database directly using the SQL Management Studio and got exactly the same error.
I'd never heard of having incompatible database versions for SQL Server before. Am I missing a patch for SQLEXPRESS or ????. Thanks.

We have a user Training database that we would like to keep updated from our Production database. Users would make different modifications to the Training and Production databases. It is the user updates on the secondary that bother me and I have not seen anything that indicates Log Shipping would fail if new random records are added to both the secondary and primary.
Would Log Shipping be appropriate for this nightly update of Training from Production?
I am trying to copy one database to another using copy wizard for SQL Server 2005. The destination database is on another server/box. I get the following errors when executing the SSIS package: "The job failed. The Job was invoked by User abcd. The last step to run was step 1 (abcd_0_Step).".

Can this be done? Is there something that needs to be set security wise for this to work?
Hello, I have ran into a problem when i'm getting table names in c#. I have tried the sql command: select name from sysobjects where type='U' order by name So it returns the names without a problem. But when I try to access to some tables using their names (to retrieve the columns) I sometimes get the error "Invalid object name" following by the name of the table. So I realized the if the table was not under dbo user then i would get this error. for example: "select name from ContactCreditCard" gives me error because in database management tool it is shown like this: Sales.ContactCreditCard How can i fix this problem? How to get that prefix of the tables?
Hi I have been working with advantureworks database and make some modifications on it. I need to be able to have a copy of this modified adventureworks database and use it on my laptop.

Is there a difference between MS SQL Server 2005 and SQL Server 2005 Express Edition
I want to install the new (February 2007) sample databases. The readme says any previous version must be removed by dropping the database., then running Remove from Add or Remove Programs. I've detached the database, but when I try to uninstall it I get the following message:
"Error 1309.Error reading from file: pathandfilename.mdf. Verify that the file exists and that you can access it."
When I install AdventureWorks.db for SQL Express, it runs without errors. The database files (data and logs) are in the SQL Express 2005 data directory. However, I can not see the database in Managment Studio Express CTP. I've tried repairing and uninstall/install again. Does not help.
I have SQL Express 2005 cleanly installed. I have the pubs and Northwinds databases cleanly installed. (I was able to execute the queries that came for installing these). I can see both pubs and Northwinds in Management Studio Express CTP.
I'm working with the sample database called Adventure Works and I'm encountering data consistency issues : If I sum the TotalDue for one particular territory, for one particular time window from the Sales. SalesOrderHeader table and if I try to compare the result to the LastYearSales and YTDSales from the Sales.SalesTerritory table, I don't get the same number, whatever I try. So did I miss something ? How are the LastYearSales and YTDSales fields from Sales.SalesTerritory calculated ?
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?
Hi there, I have installed Sql server 2005 developer on my machine which already has a Sql server 2000 installed on. Now i am trying to query the Sqlserver 2005 data(Ex: from Person.Address located in AdventureWorks database) in Sqlserver 2000 query analyzer: When i try as Select * from Address it said invalid object. But when i explored AdventureWorks database in the Management studio i see it as Person.Address!!! i don't understand what is a Person in Person.Address??? any clues on this? So as a test when i ran select * from Person.Address it did work and i saw the results in query analyzer. Can any one help me understand about this confusion? Thanks-L
I've installed both the AW db and dw off the MS download. I see the db in the directory I use for other databases, the dw doesnt seem to want to go where I tell it. Anyway, when I connect to my instance of sql (developer's) I dont see the AW db.
