MSDE and Enterprise Manager?

I am a complete sql newbie! For the life of me I can't figure out how to get Enterprise Manager to connect with MSDE. Something about mixed mode or tcp/ip settings? But no one's ever really clear on how to do these things. I've uninstalled MSDE until I can get more info.

I just need a quick walk-through on how to install msde to work with EM. This is what I used when MSDE requested a strong password:

setup INSTANCENAME="InstanceName" SECURITYMODE=SQL SAPWD="AStrongSAPwd"

Is this correct? Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks.

You access it by address or servername + \ + Instance name:

Server\MSDEInstanceName

|||

What part are you having a problem with?

Tell EM to connect to the server\instancename using sql authentication login sa, password AStrongPWD.

|||If you have the full SQL Server installed then you install the MSDE as a named instance and right click at the top of the Enterprise manager of the full version to register the MSDE and you can manage it directly. If you have the MSDE installed then you install the full version as a named instance and repeat the above. I have registered 68 SQL Server 7/2000 in one XP box so if you have more questions post again. Hope this helps.|||

Thanks to everyone for their help.

I had the eval version of 2000 installed but it's expired. I would now like to use EM with MSDE to connect to the database on my website. I re-installed MSDE but it's only showing the local database.

When I try to register my online domain (ip address) it fails. Says sql may not be running. But it is running. I know it's something basic and silly I'm not doing, but I'm still very new to sql. Is there any other very basic step I may be missing?

Again, thanks for everyone's help...sorry for all the newbie questions.

|||

Which is probably correct because your SQL Server service maybe off, the developer edition is $40 in the link below but you could get it for less because when you are using hosting company you need Enterprise manager. Hope this helps.

MSDE and Enterprise Manager Trouble

I have installed an MSDE instance on my PC. I have used both the setup.exe program and installed MSDE with the merge modules. Everything works fine - I am able to programmatically connect to the database and execute all of my statements. However, when I t
ry to register the database with Enterprise Manager, Enterprise Manager doesn't see the instance. Similarly, my program that uses SQLDMO.DLL to enumerate all servers does not see the MSDE instance. Both the database, my program, and Enterprise Manager are
running locally on the same machine.
This is a development box, and I have had to uninstall MSDE by hand several times by removing registry keys manually. I suspect that my problem is that I have deleted a key that I needed. Does anyone have any clues? Thanks in advance.

MSDE with Sp3a or MSDE Release A installs by default without network
connections enabled and will not advertise itself on the network. You can
still register the instance in Enterprise Manager by typing the name in the
textbox during registration.
You can install MSDE with network connections, see the "Customizing Desktop
Engine Setup.exe" topic in Books Online for details. You can also enable
network connections after installation with (I think) svrnetcn.exe in the
Tools\Bin directory, but I have no MSDe instance to check that at the
moment.

MSDE and Enterprise Manager

I have just installed (new clean install) of MSDE 3a. On another machine I have enterprise manager, and I thought I would be able to access it, but when I try to register it in EM it gives me the following error: SERVERNAME - SQL Server does not exist or access denied, Connection Open(Connect(). I have done this in the past with no problem. Did I forget a parameter on the install of 3a to allow other machines to access or do I have some other security issue?Depends on the configuration of MSDE. If you have enabled (using sapwd flag on setup.exe) SQL authentication, you can authenticate with these credentials. However, I did not try to connect to an MSDE instance running on another box with Enterprise Manager yet. But AFAIK, SQL auth should work fine in this case.|||I did configure it for SQL authentication.sql

MSDE and Enterprise Manager

If you have a machine running MSDE and you use Enterprise
Manager to connect to it, should you be able to set up
database maintenance plans that will delete expired
backups?
I'm seeing a situation where you can set up the
maintenance plan but the drop down box for the type of
period (days, weeks, etc) after which to delete expired
backups is blank.
My first thought is that there's an issue with using EM
to set up maintenance plans on MSDE.
Thanks for any assistance.

unfortunately, your first thought should be that you are not licensed to use
Enterprise Manager against MSDE instances, and you should rely on self based
solutions or third party tools

|||Thanks for your message. My understanding of the licensing is you can use

agree?
In case you are wondering, you might use MSDE even if you have an installed
version of SQL Server if the application you are using is based on one or the
other. Great Plains, for example, knows which one you are using and has
specific licenses.

|||That's not quite correct. The Appropriate Uses of MSDE FAQ at
http://www.microsoft.com/sql/msde/howtobuy/msdeuse.asp says the following:
Q. Can I use SQL Server tools and services in conjunction with MSDE?
A. You can only use SQL Server tools and services in conjunction with
MSDE if you acquired MSDE through SQL Server 2000 (Developer Edition,
Standard Edition, or Enterprise Edition), and if you are using MSDE in
conjunction with a properly licensed copy of SQL Server 2000. Visit the How
to Buy page for information on obtaining a valid SQL Server license.
Note: The tools and services included with SQL Server Developer
Edition may not be used to manage production server environments.
The following utilities are installed by the MSDE setup application
and are provided without restrictions for use with the copy of MSDE that is
installed by your application: bcp.exe, cnfgsvr.exe, dcomscm.exe, osql.exe,
sqlmaint.exe, sqlmangr.exe, scm.exe, sqladhlp.exe, and svrnetcn.exe. The
dtsrun.exe utility is also provided, but can only be used to run existing
Data Transformation Services (DTS) packages against the copy of MSDE
installed by your application; it cannot be used to develop new DTS
packages.
The key phrase here is "using MSDE in conjuntion with a properly licensed
copy of SQL Server 2000." Simply owning a copy of SQL Server Standard
Edition isn't enough, and you'll have to talk to your laywer to figure out
what that phrase means. All I've been told is that it doesn't apply in most
cases and requires a room full of lawyers and a white board to understand.
Rather than go through all that, you're probably better off putting Andrea's
suggestion to work and using a third-party tool.

Stephen Dybing

MSDE 2000 Release A won't talk

I must admit that I don't know the difference between MSDE Release A and
MSDE SP3a. There is no clear information on the MS site (or at least I
couldn't find it), but the download sizes are different, so the obvious
conclusion is that they are different versions. If this assumption is
correct, then you might be seeing this issue:

http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...010&Product=sql

However, I could be wrong, so perhaps you can check some more things. Can
you actually connect to the instance on H using a local osql.exe command
also on H? If you're logged on to Windows as an administrator, then this
should be enough:

osql -S H\ABC -E

If that works, then presumably the problem is the Service Manager itself
(possibly as described in the article above). If you can connect, you can
then check the version with this query:

1> select @.@.version
2> go

If you don't see version 8.00.760, then you don't have SP3a, so I would
completely remove MSDE and then install MSDE SP3a. See "Remove all known
instances of SQL Server" in this article:

http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...991&Product=sql

If you cannot connect with osql.exe, then what error message do you get? In
the final analysis, however, I would suggest that Server Manager is a small,
unimportant component which probably is not worth worrying about. As long as
MSDE is running and you can connect from client applications with no
problems, then I would not spend too much time trying to make it work.

Regarding connecting from a different PC (with Access or any other tool),
there are a number of possible connection issues:

http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...306&Product=sql

I guess when you say "peer" you mean that the PCs are in a workgroup, not a
domain. If this is the case, then trusted connections can be awkward - the
article above has a link to another KB article which describes a possible
workaround. Mixed security using SQL logins should work fine, but is not
generally recommended unless there is no other alternative.

Hi Mark,

There is known bug when reinstalling with same instance name.
Follow the instructions for editing the registry keys given in
the article at:
http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...kb;en-us;823467

If that fails then you will have to uninstall MSDE 2000 Release A
and follow the instructions for editing the registry keys given in
the article at:
http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...kb;en-us;320873
Then reinstall MSDE 2000 Release A

Hope this helps.

Dan|||Thanks John, but I dont see a newsgroup named
microsoft.public.sqlserver.msde. I just checked for new groups and
that one doesn't show up there either. Not sure where i might find
this group.

This article applies to MSDE Service pack . I have installed MSDE
2000A which includes Service Pack 3. The symptoms don't and conditions
don't apply, nor do the workaround instructions make sense.

This works. But the SQL Server *is* running - we knew that.

Result is:
Microsoft SQL Server 2000 - 8.00.760 (Intel X86)
Dec 17 2002 14:22:05
Copy

You are correct, the two computers are not in a domain and so there is
no user authentication provided by a domain server. Thanks for the
link I will look it up.

The Server Manager is only important in that its a good first
indication that everything is working at the local computer - an
encouraging first sign, insofar as the client computer cannot connect
to the server.

I am also working on the problem of fixing ports used by the SQL
Server. The instance now installed is named and so uses dynamic ports
rather than the fixed 1433 and 1434 ports. The question is: what does
the SQL Server Manager use?|||I think you are correct. I need to uninstall MSDE2000A and then fix up
the registry or re-install windows 2000. I have already uninstalled
the old default version that came with MS office. I have also
installed the MSDE2000A version several times.

I have never checked the MDAC version (don't know how), but that may
also be a problem.

I need to try these and then request more help.

Many thanks.
Mark.

"The format of the computer name is inavlid."

This is the response to asking it to find the instance ABC on the
computer named "H" - (H\ABC). Recall that running osql.exe against the

msde 2000 on windows 2003 server

I "Managed" to install msde on windows 2003 server but the sql service manager does list an thing to connect to.
what am i doing wrong does mdse work on windows 2003 server and how do i fix it ?
Hi,
I have found the following KB article that describes a similar scenario.
http://support.microsoft.com/default...&Product=sql2k
#appliesto
================================================== ==========================
================================================== =========
BUG: The SQL Server 2000 Service Manager Utility Does Not List Instances
That Have Not Enabled Network Connections
View products that this article applies to.
BUG #: 363267 (SHILOH_BUGS)
SYMPTOMS
If you configure an instance of SQL Server 2000 or SQL Server 2000 Desktop
Engine (also known as MSDE 2000) to disallow network connections, that
instance will not appear in the SQL Server 2000 Service Manager utility.
CAUSE
The SQL Server ODBC driver does not return instance names to the SQL
Service Manager if the instance does not support network connections.
WORKAROUND
To work around this behavior, stop and then start the service for the
instance by following these steps:
Right-click My Computer, and then click Manage.
Double-click Services and Applications in the left-hand screen.
Double-click Services.
Right-click the service for the instance of SQL Server. The name of the
service for a default instance of SQL Server 2000 is MSSQLServer. The name
of the service for a named instance of SQL Server 2000 is
MSSQL$instancename.
Click the action that you want applied to the instance, such as stop or
start.

MSDE 2000 Downloaded and Installed But where is Enterprise Manager

Dear Experts,
I have downloaded MSDE 2000RelA and i installed it. But where is the
Enterprise Manager and Query Analyzer a-la SQL Server 7.0? Any help would be
greatly appreciated
Thanks

Hi,
MSDE will not come with Enterprise manager or Query analyser. You have to
use the command prompt utilizty OSQL to execute all
the TSQL commands. See the details of OSQL utility in books online.
You could also download and use the WEB data ADMIN free tool from microsoft

MSDE 2000 and enterprise (enterprize) manager remotely

Hey all.
Can you use enterprise manager to connect to an MSDE 2000 version of
SQL Server across the internet? Ignoring firewalls (server was placed
outside firewall to see if thats where the connection problem was)
We get the 'SQL Server does not exist or access denied
ConnectionOpen(Connect())' error when trying to connect to a clients
database on their server over the internet. However, everything looks
ok and I can vpn into their machine and connect to the server using
enterprise manager on a terminal service session on their servers.
This in itself is a pain and we would rather have their server
registered in our enterprise manager.
Does the same answer apply if the server was an installation of SQL
Server standard edition?Licensing questions aside:
Yes. Note that MSDE doesn't by default listen to any netlibs. If you can
connect to the same MSDE after VPN, then this shouldn't be an issue. I
suggest you, on the client, make sure that TCP IP is at the top of the list
in Client Network Utility. Also try connecting using IP address. And as for
port numbers,
The IP netlib uses 1433 for a default instance.
The IP netlib uses 1434 for the port resolution query and whatever the
instance picked at the first startup for the actual data traffic.

I can only register it in enterprise manager on the terminal server box,

Firewalls is the most common reason for this.

services. BUT, When I log on terminal services and have a look at the
properties of the server (terminal services enterprise manager) it says
tcpip is enabled. Does this mean that this library is available and
SHOULD work across the internet?

MSDE + Entreprise Manager.....again

But I thing that question has never been asked before...:-)
I use Entreprise manager to manage my MSDE on my windows XP machine.
I also have on my network a SQL Server 2000.
My problem is that I cannot add my MSDE to my Entreprise manager localted on
my SQL box.
Is this by design? Can I manage my MSDE remotely from my SQL box?
Thanks

Hi,
there is the option DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS by installing MSDE, if
DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=1 you can't reach the MSDE instance remotely.

MSDE / SQL - SERVER

Dear all,
I have installed both environments on my system, running windows 2000.
When I start the SQL Enterprise Manager I can see 1 SQL Server Group,
containing two branches:
- (local) (windows nt) which contains the msde
- named instance which contains the sql server 2000
I have an application running in which I can make a selection between
servers. After installing sql server the servers running on my system are no
longer presented. My application still runs with the msde server if I type in
the name of the server but not with the sql server.
To check wehther the problem is caused by the application or not, I tried to
create a DSN (odbc data source) on my system. Because there the server is
also requested. When I click on the list box for the server no servers are
presented. When I type in the name I get an error message that the connection
failed.
sql server error: 1231
.....
sqlstate: '08001'
sql server error: 17
[microsoft][odbc sql server dirver][dbnetlib]sql server does not exist or
access denied
Because I did not see the servers available in the list box I the server
does not exist part of the message seems to match my problem. But looking
into the enterprise manager I have it up and running.
Has someone experienced this in the past and solved it. Can you share the
solution for this problem.
regards,
Danny Gaethofs
Dear all,
I have to rephrase my problem statement. After a bit of experimenting I am
able to get connected to both msde and sql server using my application.
However the problem I described that the servers are not shown in the list
box that opens for example when you create a data source remains.
Because this is a bit crucial when creating new connections can someone help
me out with this and explain why it is happening.
regards,
Danny Gaethofs

|||When you say "list box," what object are you referring to? I am assuming
this is the developement configuration. How will the architecture look when
you roll this out to your clients? Will they also have two SQL Server
installations on their workstations? Or, will there be an actual server and
then a local MSDE? Or, might there just be several server installations?
You can use the Client Configuration Utility to simulate the "names" of your
production servers but redirect them to each of the "instances" running in
your developement environment.
First, all SQL Server installations run as an "instance." There is the
default instance and up to 15 named instances on any given host. Or, you
can have 16 named instances. They all comprise the <host name>[\<instance
name>], with the default instance being NULL for the instance name. You can
map those, with the Client Configuration Utility, to just a virtual host
name if you wish.
If multiple instances are running on one server, then they can not all share
the same default 1433 port. The other instances can be configured for
specific ports or can be dynamically generated each time the instance is
restarted. If dynamic, then all of your users will have to be on the same
VLAN, the UDP 1434 port must not be blocked, and they must set their client
configuration to Dynamic Discovery for the port detection.
Hope this narrows down this list of issues for you.

Anthony Thomas

Dear all,
I have to rephrase my problem statement. After a bit of experimenting I am
able to get connected to both msde and sql server using my application.
However the problem I described that the servers are not shown in the list
box that opens for example when you create a data source remains.
Because this is a bit crucial when creating new connections can someone help
me out with this and explain why it is happening.

its ability to search out installations. Use the Client Config tool to
define these and then ODBC Administrator to define DSN's on top of that. Be
careful though, because then you are likely forcing the overhead of using
ODBC on top OLEDB. That's just another API layer between you and the
database access.
I would consider using Data Links instead of DSN. These use the native
OLEDB API ans server a similar purpose, persisting the connection parameters
on the local machine. One way to create one quickly is to create a NEW TEXT

changed to a Data Link file which can be managed by the Data Link

MSDE / SQL - SERVER

Dear all,
I have installed both environments on my system, running windows 2000.
When I start the SQL Enterprise Manager I can see 1 SQL Server Group,
containing two branches:
- (local) (windows nt) which contains the msde
- named instance which contains the sql server 2000
I have an application running in which I can make a selection between
servers. After installing sql server the servers running on my system are no
longer presented. My application still runs with the msde server if I type in
the name of the server but not with the sql server.
To check wehther the problem is caused by the application or not, I tried to
create a DSN (odbc data source) on my system. Because there the server is
also requested. When I click on the list box for the server no servers are
presented. When I type in the name I get an error message that the connection
failed.
sql server error: 1231
....
sqlstate: '08001'
sql server error: 17
[microsoft][odbc sql server dirver][dbnetlib]sql server does not exist or
access denied
Because I did not see the servers available in the list box I the server
does not exist part of the message seems to match my problem. But looking
into the enterprise manager I have it up and running.
Has someone experienced this in the past and solved it. Can you share the
solution for this problem.

Danny GaethofsDear all,

MSDE / ODBC install problem...please help...

I have installed MSDE (and ODBC) at my client site on their 2003 server. I
have attached my SQL database via Teratrax Database Manager to the MSDE
server however when I try to setup the ODBC connection it doesn't list the
database in the drop-down. I cannot attach to the database from my notebook
either because I am not authenticated onto their domain.
I have also applied the regedit on the LoginMode key setting it to 2 and
rebooted but I still cannot connect to the database via the ODBC manager.
What am I doing wrong? I am NOT good with the scripts for configuring things
- generally I use the Enterprise Manager.
Try running the client config (cliconfig.exe) and create an alias for the
server. Specify the protocol to talk to it - (probably TCP/IP vs. named
pipes). On my system its in \windows\system32.

MSDE (SQL Server does not exist or access denied.)


Hi all,
I'm getting this error message when I try to connect my MSDE database from other machine using enterprise manager application. Both of the machines are WinXP SP2. I found some solution such as using 'SQLServer Network Utility' but didn't work out for me. I even can not connect my database on my computer using TCP/IP. When I connect with name, it worked fine. I already enable both TCP/IP and Named pipe protocol on the MSDE machine.
If someone has solution on that please let me know.

Thanks,
MyoDid you open the ports on the computers ?

HTH, Jens K. Suessmeyer.

http://www.sqlserver2005.de|||If you have SQL Server 2005 installed on the same box as the MSDE, you need make sure SQL Browser is running. Make sure the ports (UDP/1434 and your TCP Port) are open if firewall exists. Also try file sharing between machines and make it work, otherwise NP won't work. When you use cliconfg.exe, make TCP and NP are on the client protocol lists.|||
Yes,
There is also SQL 2000 and 2005Express running together with MSDE. I already changed the port no and try to connect it. But, still didn't work out. I tried at the other machine and it works. I don't know why it still doesn't work at this machine. May be I miss some configuration. I'll try again. Thanks for the message.

I have exactly the same issue. I have installed MSDE2000 on a PC with Windows XP Professional and SP2. I have tried everything to connect to another remote server and still get the same error message

I have added ports 135 and ports 445 to the firewall but again without much success. Does anyone out there have any ideas on how to get this working?

|||You will first have to determine the port that MSDE is using by starting the application Srvnetcn.exe naviagte to TCP and note that number down. After this you will have to create an exclude filter for the firewall for the application sqlservr.exe using this number and the 1434 UDP for incoming request. That should egt you started for SQL Server.

Hi Jens,

Many thanks for your prompt response. I have tried all your suggestions but still cannot gain access to a remote database. TCP/IP is running on port 1433, using Srvnetcn.exe to check, and I have added both the entries you have suggested to the firewall exclude lists. Any other ideas? Thanks in advance

MSDE & SQL Server Agent

Can anyone tell me if the SQL Server Agent is included with MSDE? I realize
that Query Analyzer and Enterprise Manager are not included. I intend to use
MSDE for a project and would like to create jobs that will get scheduled by
SQL Server Agent.
Thanks.
Yes, Agent is included.
