Install security patch ms03-031 on sql2k sp3 server

Tried to install security patch ms03-031 on sql2k sp3
server, but got message said that there is no valid
instance for the patch. Anyone else had this problem?I would first run Select @.@.version from Query Analyzer to verify that the
version is 2000.8.00.760 (SP3)

Yes, I did that and even tried to reapply sp3 but still
can't install that patch with same message. Any other
reasons?

Install of MSDE on XP Pro Failed, HELP Please ANYONE!

I have for the past 1.5 weeks been trying to get MSDE installed on a Windows
XP computer. We are installing MSDE sp3 which we have installed on more
than 20+ computers. Some computers Windows 2003 Servers some Windows XP
Pro. We have NEVER had a problem. So before anyone suggest it, I don't
think going to MSDE sp4 will help with this problem. We have formatted the
computer MANY times and started over. We have updated with ALL of the
Windows update and it did not work. We formatted and install only SP2 on
Windows XP. We have taken off all other software, virus scanners, office,
etc. The computer is BLANK. It is on the network and I am remote
desktopped in when I try to install. Now I have done this MANY time remote
desktopped to a machine and no problem. We have made sure that network
items like File and Print Sharing are on. I have tried to install as the
administrator of the computer, as a user who have administrative priveleges,
etc. This computer is a Windows XP computer, not on a domain, the software
is XP Pro, and everything looks good. I am at a lost.
When I install I have it dump out the logs, here is some of the log I get,
it is
to long to post all of it. I have also added the SQL
Error logs that are left below this log. Then below that I have attached
the cnfgsvr.out
Any help is GREATLY appriecated, I can not blank out and install XP any
more.

Thank you for your response, as I said in my email this is a BLANK computer,
never had anything installed on it so the link does not help me with this
but I will try to install it in another directory just to see if there is
something wrong with trying to install it in the default location.

You are a great help but that was not it. The service is up and running. I
even stopped it and started it, then checked the event log to make sure no
error occured. But everything worked fine. The server service is working

Sometimes you may need to delete this key:
HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Set up\ExceptionComponents,
then reinstall the SQL Server again.

I tried removing the key after wiping out any registry settings and the
folder from the computer after the last install. I also tried installing in
a different folder since I read some where that might help. But getting rid
of the registry key you meantioned below along with changing the path did
not fix the problem. I still get the same error.
Thank you

|||This is a long shot but you aren't trying to install this through a Terminal
Server connection are you? This will fail with a 1460 error similar to what
you're seeing. The log indicates SQL Server service installed and started
successfully and then shut down. You might try installing with different
options to see if that makes a difference. Since you messed around with the
registry, you may now get different failures related to the registry key
being partially there. SQL Server uses several thousand registry key so I'm
reasonably certain you didn't remove them all.

Yes I am installing through a terminal server connection. I had read
another post were people pointed to that as a POSSIBLE problem but it was
not clear as to why. We have installed over 20+ MSDE systems through
Terminal Server connection and NEVER a problem. But tomorrow I will try to
install on a BLANK machine but this time I will have a local user run the
MSDE install.

> successfully and then shut down. You might try installing with different

What different options are you referring to? I am installing with the
following command line:
setup instancename=<OurInstance> SECURITYMODE=SQL SAPWD=<SomePassword> /L*V
C:\msde.log

> options to see if that makes a difference. Since you messed around with

Some time we try to install again after the install fails, what I do is go
into the registry and strip out everything that has SQL or MSSQL in the key,
that does not relate to ODBC. I figured that was cleaning up everything
because if you could look at the log file what you would see is that MSDE
rollback the install and remove all those thousands of registry keys. But
even if we do not get them all, as I said before we have tried MANY time to
format and re-install on a blank computer. I get the same error whether I
strip out keys or format. So your assumption of a different failures
related to registry key being partially there is incorrect.
Thanks for you help and advice, I will try to install locally and not
remoted, on a blank computer and see what happens. Any more suggestions
would be VERY helpful.

|||Roger,
Ok, we were able to install on a BLANK xp computer, we did nothing but
install XP, service pack 2, we did not install any hardware drivers (network
card or video card drivers, etc) we took all the windows defaults.
Plus, we did not remote in and try the installation, we just did the install
locally. The last thing we did was use MSDE sp4 not MSDE sp3 which I do not
think made a difference but I wanted to make sure anyone reading this would
know.
It all installed fine. I think the issue might have either been some other
driver or not installing remotely but we have installed remotely on a lot of
computers so I don't see the reason that would not work. The drivers are
the only other thing I can think of which might be the issue.
But thank to you and Andrea for all your help and I am glad this has been
solved.

Install MSDE with SP3 without User intervention

I have a 5 user app that uses MSDE as the database. It is run on a "SERVER"
any computer actually that they will use to use the same database.
I need an easy way for my low-tech users to stick in my install CD, select
Server installation , and I offer a named instance of SQL server using SQL
Security... Also needs to create a new copy of the database, offer them a
prompt for the DB password and more.
I need this to be as easy as possible.
What is the best route in doing this?
If it requires an DBA or high-tech user to install, then that will rule out
most of my clients, and make distributing this app and using MSDE not a very
wise choice.
Thanks for any help,
ShaneShane,
Your app sound very similar to ours and so do your users :> )
This is what I have just done and it works very well.
Our install software is InstallShield DevStudio 9.1 and it allows you to
conditionally install MSDE 2000. BTW it does not allow you to conditional
install MSDE 1.0. It also allows you to put in an instance name if you want
one.
So all I did was change the setup type screen that normally reads 'typical',
'minimum' and 'custom' to read 'server', 'client' and 'custom'. A Server
selection installs MSDE plus the client components and a Client selection
will not install MSDE.
As for the database itself I scripted all the schema, you can do that thru
EM, and enough table data to get the application going. ie Default Data.
You can run this either via a vbScript or batch file using the osql command.
We elected to script the data because some of our customers already have SQL
and they often want to use that, especially if there are large numbers of
users. It also gets over the problem of a customer having SQL, wanting to
use it, and their sort order is different to yours.
In the batch or vbscript you could offer prompts for sa password. Install
MSDE with a blank or known password, run the database scripts, ask for a new
password, change it and your done.
There's no easy way to do what you want, ie giving the user options like
passwords instance names etc., and I've tried them all. If you didn't want
to have the flexibility and wanted a set install then Installshield would do
it all. Just click on setup and it would install your app, msde, make the
instance, have a set sa password and attach or run a batch file to install
your databases. But, you have to make the decision.
Hope this helps.
Greg

Does the msde 2000 copy you are installing have SP3 already applied?
I installed on my dev machine using the one from VB.NET I think.
Also when you mention scripting with vbscript...is that from inside of
Install Shield or are you running that from wsh or something?
Since .NET comes with a decent installer I was thinking about making it with
that. Don't have a lot of funds to buy another installer.
But I could have two separate ones. One that installs the app, then another
that installs MSDE, and maybe have them both run from a webpage that starts
with autorun. Let them type sa password to use in the webpage and somehow
use javascript or something to run the actual MSDE with the appropriate
params. I don't know that might be hard. These are some things I have
thought of.
I know we are licensed to use MSDE for owning .NET Pro. There seem to be
several flavors of MSDE, and seems I saw one that would install with SP3
included. Guess I need to research some more.
At present, I have a new fire to put out. Did a restore on the database and
now ADO.NET fails to connect.
So can't do much else until I resolve this.
I am just gathering information on each area that I need or will need in
order to distribute the project easily.
Thanks for all your advice.
It is very helpful to hear from you,

I ran it to install to a local folder.
This says to have an install complete with SP3.
Is this the one I should use for install?
If so, then I just need a front end and to prompt for sa password and I am

The MSDE 2000 Merge Module with DevStudio 9 does have SP3 already applied,
so you don't have to worry about applying it.
DevStudio allows either Installshield Scripting or a VBScript to be run from
inside Installshield. So you can do things like:-
a) Installer selects the type of setup. Typical, Min. Custom etc.
b) This opens your custom dialog with say some questions to answer. eg sa
password. Their responses are stored in variables.
c) They click on Next to proceed with the installation.
Or you could do:-
a) Install a default installation of MSDE 2000 SP3 with a blank sa password.
b) After setup finishes run either a vbScript or Installshield script that
asks for an sa password.
c) Within that script run an osql command to change the sa password.
If you want to go with MSDE 2000 then there is no reason to have 2 install
apps. DevStudio 9 will do all you want and more.
As I said earlier I've been installing MSDE 1.0 and more recently MSDE 2000
with our apps. for sometime now and the MSDE 2000 Merge Module with
DevStudio is by far the easiest as it can be conditionally installed. If
you want to go with MSDE 1.0 then it has to be script driven as MSDE 1.0
cannot be conditionally installed.
Hope I've been helpful.

Greg

I appreciate the info.
Since I don't have a budget to buy additional setup software right now.
I chose to create a prompting VC++ app to do my server setup.
It prompts for all the needed info, creates the setup.ini file in a temp dir
and then calls the setup.exe program for MSDE passing the right parameters,
then it calls a batch file passing that info, so that I can create the
structure with calls to osql with scripts and then will copy the data as
soon as I learn how.
How can I copy data into the new database?
Is BCP the only option. Seems complicated. I was hoping for an easier way
to do that. The amount of data needing to be copied is less than 100 rows
in 8 tables.
Thanks,
Shane

Install Help

Hello:
I am new to Reporting Services and I am having a problem displayingReporting Manager. I am running Win 2003 with IIS 6 and SQL Svr2000 SP3. VS 2003 has been installed and the developmentenvironment works fine.
I cannot get Report Manager to work I try to access the page and I get the following error:
Error
The request failed with HTTP Status 400: Bad Request
Their is a link for Home but when I click on it I get the same message.
When I try to access Report Server using //servername/reportmanager, Iget prompted for a user name and password. I put in thecredentials for a local admin and it brings me to a page that has the servername/reportserver. At the bottom is some versioninformation and that's all there is.
I have researched and tried a variety a solutions like running reactivate and rsconfig to no avail.
IIS is set up with a reports website and 2 virtual dorectories, onepointing to the appropriate folder in the MSSQL folder for reportmanager and report server.
I'm out of idea. If anyone can provide some ways I can troubleshoot, I would appreciate it
Brennan
Did you have the SSL option unchecked while you were installing the RS ? or are you using SSL ?|||The SSL option was unchecked.
Thanks
|||sorry I am out of ideas too..it was a big hassle for me when I first downloaded Rs and tried to get it work..and I do remember being popped up with username/pwd but I cant remember what xactly I did ..I had to set up forms based authentication so I followedthis article.see if that will help.|||Thanks

Install failure: "Error 29550. Cannot connect to the SQL server instance

I'm trying to install the Dev version of Reporting Services (RS) on one
box and have it use an Sql Server 2000 (w/SP3) instance on another box.
Both the RS and SqlServer boxes are Windows 2000 Servers. Neither are
part of a "windows domain"--neither will they ever be. We only connect
to SqlServer via a user/pwd pair. Additionally, there are 2 instances of
SqlServer running on the box and both of them listen on custom ports. (I
have confirmed that I can successfully connect to the desired SqlServer
instance from the RS box.)
The error I got was the "Login failed for user '(null)'. Reason: Not
associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.". The installer
attempts a domain login when I explicitly told it *not* to. I found no
way to get the installer to successfully connect to the database. The
solutions I've found on the web/Usenet have not worked either.
Since I couldn't get it to install through the GUI, I switched to using
an .ini file. Of course, it's not working either. The (500KB!) log file
the installer produces has only one useful line in it: "Error 29550.
Cannot connect to the SQL server instance ." That meant that the problem
was the RSDATABASESERVER variable. The instructions tell me to specify
an "SQL Server 2000 instance in format MACHINE\INSTANCENAME". I played
around with that value a lot; I wondered how it could figure out what
port to connect to for one thing. While doing so, I tried sniffing the
network to see if that would help me at all--it just got me more
frustrated: no attempt is made to contact the server! Ever.
First off: WHY choose this uncommon, inadequate format for specifying a
server? Why not just use an alias from "cliconfg" like everything else?
Second: why doesn't the installer even *try* to login to the server? If
there's a reason it can't access the network, wouldn't you think that
500KB log file is a good place to mention it?
What do I do? (Hint: don't suggest making either box part of a windows
domain)
GrangerTo have setup use sql auth during setup you must pass in command line
parameters. The params are RSSETUPACCOUNT and RSSETUPPASSWORD
so run this command
setup.exe RSSETUPACCOUNT=foo RSSETUPPASSWORD=bar
This will allow you to use the setup GUI still but all communication with
the backend server will use sql auth. Note that the setup user needs to be
a dbo. You can safely use the sa account as it is only used during setup.

trying to use the "sa" account from the beginning because the instructions say
the "setup" account is only used during setup.
My problem is still that the installer doesn't even *try* to connect to the
database server. Once I can get around that, my problem will be that it will
want to use Windows Authentication because the connection information only
consists of "server\instance"; that's why it has to login: to figure out the
port the instance lives at.
If anyone knows the person responsible for the decision to use this connection
method, please smack them upside the head for me.
Other ideas?

configuration say?
I take it that on the general tab you have TCP/IP listed at the top - click
the properties tab and is the port set correctly for your particular
instance?
I am running reporting services stand-alone - with SQL Server NOT IN A
DOMAIN - and it runs just fine.
You can also create an ALIAS name to the server instance in the SQL Server
Client Network utility.
Finally, just to be sure we are "connecting the dots" here - fire up the SQL
Server Network utility and verify that the TCP/IP properties are also
listening on the correct port. (I bet they are since you are using the
system successfully)
Last but not least, even if you are using SQL Server authentication, you
should be able to use windows authentication only when doing the setup -
since as you said you have full control over the dev box - then you have
local admin rights - therefore you should be able to logon unless you have
modifed the BUILTIN\Administrators security for that machine. (I assume that
this is not the case).
Please let me know if you are still having an issue, I'll be happy to help
you out.
Of course, this may come as a dumb question, but I assume nothing: Did you
install SP3a for SQL Server? (I assume yes), did you install the SQL Server
hotfix 859 ?

The connectivity is all OK. It appears I'm just going to have to go
sync the administrators on each of the boxes during the install.
However, that won't be for a while; I just gave up and installed
everything on my own box for now. When I've had a chance to play with it
for a while, I'll do another install attempt in a more "proper" DEV
environment.
As far as the updates on the database go, my DBA says he's only done
security bulletin stuff. I looked it over and it seems the DEV box has
SP3 not SP3a (I checked the Ssnetlib.dll; we have 2000.80.760 not
2000.80.766
(http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;819334)). Also,
since Enterprise Manager reports 8.00.760, I gather he's not done any
hotfixes. This KnowledgeBase article
(http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;888007) implies
we should be at least at .977. I'll go tease him for being a slacker. ;)
I wouldn't guess the hotfixes would have anything to do with my
problem, however, since my local database only has SP3 installed on it
and ReportingServices installed fine.
Again, thanks Chris =)

Install both SQL7 and SQL8 on same server

Hello all,

Is there any special procedure to install a SQL7 (plus sp3) and a SQL8 server on a Windows 2000 Server.

I did succed installing both of them, but all of my applications are behaving strangely ()error msg ect)...So I may supose that there some kind of predefined process to have those kind of installation working properly..?

Any idea would be welcomed !

Thanks a lot in advance,

Regards,

Benj.how did you do it? there should'nt be any problems if you used named instances. If however you did'nt used named instances and you installed SQL 2K on top of SQL7, yes you can have a number of problems. off the top of my head I think there is an issue with programmers that used qoutes in their stored procedures.|||Just two standard installs...nothing really complex.

Yes, I did use instances for SQL8:

MYSERVER => for accessing SQL7 DB

MYSERVER\APLTEST => for accessing SQL8 DB

But year I tried to trace from both side (profiler and ODBC trace log), and did find some weird error messages:

DIAG [S0002] [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Invalid object name 'ScalaDBProperties'. (208)...

And basically my application crashes after trying to do this command (checking if the table exists):

SELECT NULL FROM SY050000 WHERE 1 = 2

Here it dies...

Ghost

But what's the best is that this table exist, I can querry it without any issue.. Also tried to do a connection from another server with MS Access..just in case...It also worked fine..

Also last point I tried to recreate a user for this DB by deleting the main software user called Scala and recreating it.. Nothing worked..

I'm really lost here, so if anyone would have a hint..I would be very happy !

Thanks again,

Benj.|||Am I missing something here? Your query does not seem to make any sense.

It seems you are returning the value null when the number 1 = number 2 which is a mathmatical impossibility.

1 is not a column name. I seem to remember that column names can not start with numbers.

Am I wrong?|||Erf... that's the SQL statement the program we have issue.

From what I was thinking, the program is just trying to check if the table SY050000 exists but I'm not certain of it and since my knowledge of SQL is pretty limited (just trying to debug the thingy) I cannot assure you that this command syntax is actually right..

But I tried from a querry analyzer and it doesn't give me any error and it returns me :

(No column Name)

If I try the same command on a table that doesn't exists I have this erro message:

Server: Msg 208, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Invalid object name 'SY05000'.

Would there be any tests to do from a SQL point of view, on the SY050000 table to check if everything is alright ? Is there anything else I could try to test my SQL install or my ODBC connection please ?

In any case thanks for trying to help :) that's much apreciated :D

Install Analysis Services SP3

Hi,
I'm have downloaded database components SP3- SQL2KSP3.exe SP3a.
When i tried to installed , it gave me this error "An error occurred during
the move data process: -145"
why? please help and guide me on what to do next.
thx,
jessJessica,
Here are few possible issues:
- first of all, don't get mad with this bullet, but check whether you have
AS installed on the computer
- next, you can check the olapsp.log file to see what went wrong
- check the support article at http://www.support.microsoft.com/?id=814462
whether it applies to your case
- I've succeeded to install AS SP3a after this error when I stopped all

Install Analysis Services SP3

Hi,
I'm have downloaded database components SP3- SQL2KSP3.exe SP3a.
When i tried to installed , it gave me this error "An error occurred during
the move data process: -145"
why? please help and guide me on what to do next.
thx,
jessJessica,
Here are few possible issues:
- first of all, don't get mad with this bullet, but check whether you have
AS installed on the computer
- next, you can check the olapsp.log file to see what went wrong
- check the support article at http://www.support.microsoft.com/?id=814462
whether it applies to your case
- I've succeeded to install AS SP3a after this error when I stopped all
unnecessary services.
