Upgraded MS SQL Server 2000 to 2008, Windows Updates still ask to apply service pack 4 for SQL 2000

Hi,

I've upgraded the MS SQL Server 2000 to 2008 in a Windows 2003 server. In the automatic Windows updates, it'll still keep on prompting me whether I want to apply the Security Update for SQL Server 2000 Service Pack 4.

Is there anyway to get rid of the above?

Thanks in advance.



SQL Server 2005 service hung ... "Change Pending"

$
0
0

Have an interesting situation.

I have a NeverFail cluster on which I loaded SQL Server 2005 and SP1.

All was great. Both nodes had no issues with the initial setup or the SP1 update.

When I forced a failover to the inactive node, MOST of the services like SSIS, Full-Text and SQL Browser came up like a champ.

BUT ... the SQL Server service and the SQL Agent did not come up (or shall I say not fully).

I am now looking at the SQL Server Configuration Manager and I see the following for the SQL Server service:

"Name"      shows the RED block icon for the SQL Server

"State"       shows "Change pending ..."

"Start Mode" is set to Manual

"Log on as"   has my domain account listed

"Process ID"   has the number 2956 (so it has started somewhat).

I then click open the SQL Service item and it shows that it is stopped.

I am given the option to START the service. When I try to start it, the meter bar comes up and moves slowly to the end and then an error returns of ...

"The request failed or the service did not respond in a timely manner. Consult the event log or other applicable errors logs for details"

If I look under windows Services in the Admin Tools section... I see the services for SSIS, FT and Browser listed and started BUT I see SQL Server says its "starting".

If I click open the service from here, once again it show "starting" and all of the option buttons to Stop-Start-Pause-Resume are grayed out and I am not able to use them.

I have looked in the Windows Event Logs for any events but none are present. 

Now I know why the SQL Agent is not running, and of course that is due to is dependency on SQL Server being up and running.

First off WHAT does the "Change pending" message mean?

Then what other logs can I look at for some help or is there someone who has the answers to this dilemma.

Thanks and have a great evening

Microsoft Community,

    I am attempting to successfully install SQL server were a previous installation had occured. Due to security policies on our Coporate domain I was forced to pull the server out of the domain. The uninstall of the original SQL Express was 100 percent successful.  Now when I try to perform a local reinstallation of the server I get a error in the Setup Support Rules. Below is the error

*********************************************************************

The initial error says "Consistency validation for SQL Server registry keys" When I click on view detail report the below additional information is displayed.

Rule Name - AclPermissionsFacet

Rule Description - Checks if the SQL server registery keys are consistent

Result - Failed

Message/Corrective Action - The SQL Server registery keys from a prior installation cannot me modified. To continue, see SQL Server Setup documentation about how to fix the registry keys.

*********************************************************************

Has anyone see this error during installation and have any input on how to fix this as this is an important server which is holding up a project.

Updating SQL 2008 to SQL 2008 r2 SP1

The setup process installs the 2008 r2 setup 10.51.2500.00 with no errors, but the only setup support file available is version 10.2.4000.0.  It won't let me select the instance to update, because it wants setup support file verision 10.51.2500.00.  Why is the update not loading the correct version? 

Change named instance file location after the instance was created!

Greetings -

I installed a named instance, and realized that I have made a mistake with the file paths (not specifying the data and log drives correctly). When the named instance was created, it created c:\program files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10_50.InstanceName. What I want is to have the data files go to F:\Data and logs to E:\log. How I change the file locations to be copied to these two folders instead of going to C:\program files? Do I have to remove and reinstall the instance name to correct the file locations of SQL?

Thanks,

Enable TLS 1.2 for SQL SSL connections?

$
0

Does anyone know if running SQL 2008 R2 on Windows Server 2008 R2 if you can enable TLS 1.2 for connections between the SQL server and the SQL 2008 R2 ODBC client? I successfully enabled TLS 1.2 in IIS 7.5. But a network trace with the same system tweaks showed that the SQL connection was only being negotiated at TLS 1.0.

Enabling TLS 1.2 for IIS 7.5 can be found here:

http://derek858.blogspot.com/2010/06/enable-tls-12-aes-256-and-sha-256-in.html

The big difference between TLS 1.0 and 1.2 is the use of SHA-256 hashing instead of SHA1. NIST has recommended the phasing out of SHA1 in favor of SHA-256.

Hi

I'm trying to install powerpivot with sharepoint integration mode on a server using sql server 2012 installation wizard.

I type in a domain user name and password and I get the error message :

The credentials you provided for analysis services service are invalid. To continue, provide a valid account and password for analysis services service.

Error result: -2068578304
Result facility code: 1204

Any ideas on how to get around this problem?

 I changed my password to s a strong type password. It made no difference.

The server is a domain member server.

Cluster adding node with Service Accounts Name empty

$

Created cluster with two nodes.

Install the first node, and the final step the system could not brought the server up, hence, the SQL Agent was not able to start properly.

Fixed the SQLAgent issue by adding the virtual name into HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10_50.MSSQLSERVER\SQLServerAgent   ServerHost

Then everything seems to work good.

Adding the 2nd node into the system, get through to the Service Accounts, the SQL Agent is having an "empty" username, and it is read only, could not proceed any further as the credential info is always wrong for SQL Agent.

Tried SETSPN -D to remove the MSSQLSvc and then added back with -A

Re-run the installation still having empty user account and could not proceed.

Tried configuration manager to reset the logon as, re-run the installation, still the same.

Any hint on how to add a user account name to the SQL Agent Service for a clustered installation would be very much appreciated!

SQL Server 2008 is the worst installation experience ever

$

Sorry but you guys have really messed up with SQL Server 2008 installation.

 

I've been using SQL server since 6.5, so I would classify as a fan.  We were looking at upgrading from 2005, which I was quite pleased with.

 

The installation experience is the worst I've ever experienced.  I am a computer expert, and I couldn't figure out how to install it properly.  Why is it that when I downloaded SQL Server Management Studio Express 2008, it seems as though it wants to install the full database?  Why is it when I was asked if I wanted to install a new version of SQL Server 2008 or use a previous install, when I chose previous install, it said that an instance ID was missing, but there was no way to specify anything else?  It drove me crazy.

 

Why are there so many requirements and restrictions for the installation, when all I want to do is install Management Studio?  It's intolerable and makes me never want to upgrade to 2008.  Why is the process so terrible when Microsoft is supposed to have the best UE people in the business? 

 

You guys did a really terrible job on this one.

SQL Server 2012 stops running after setup files are copied.

SQL Server 2012 setup stops running after setup files are copied.

I've experiencing the same issue on two different machines. Both are 64 bit running Server 2008.

On both of them I tried installing using the files from the ISO. I initially used winzip to extract the files. The setup was running fine, but the SQL Server engine had an error when it installed. Then using the Add/Remove programs i uninstalled all of the SQL Server 2012 applications, including the setup files.

Now when i try to install using the "New SQL Server stand-alone..." wizard it will copy the setup files and then the wizard never comes back. I've tried mounting the ISO, extracting with winrar, Burning the ISO to a dvd and downloading the 3 files. I also tried mounting ISO of the version that was just recently released. I run into the same issue with all of them.

Thanks for the help.


Script level upgrade for database 'master' failed because upgrade step 'msdb110_upgrade.sql' encountered error 15173, state 1, severity 16.

I cannot start the instance MSSQLSERVER since I tried to update SQL Server 2012 using Windows Update. As I was updating it, Windows Update gave me an error message saying that the update failed. I decided to run the update again, and it succeeded, I believe. Then I started SQL Server Management Studio, and I noticed that the name of my server in the Object Explorer did not have a green arrow next to it but a white circle. I knew something was wrong, so I ran Sql Server Configuration Manager and saw that the state for MSSQLSERVER was "Change Pending". I decided to restart Windows 7 Home Premium and start SQL Server Management Studio. I tried to connect to my server, but I got a connection error message. I ran Sql Server Configuration Manager again and saw that MSSQLSERVER was in the "Stopped" state. I looked at Event Viewer and saw two error messages that showed the cause of this problem. The title of this thread is the beginning of one of the error messages. Can you help me resolve my issue? Thank you.

When I try to install the Reporting Services on a second node of a failover cluster, I get the following error message:

Existing clustered or cluster-prepared instance failed. The instance selected for installation is already installed and clustered on node 2.

But, we never installed it before. Does anyone have any ideas? This is on Windows 2008 server 64-bit.

Slipstream of SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2 fails

$

Has anyone successfully created a slipstreamed drop of SQL Server 2008 R2 with SP2? I have successfully slipstreamed 4-5 other SQL Server 2008 and 2008 R2 versions with both SP's and CU's, so I'm not exactly new to this process, but can't seem to get SP2 to slipstream correctly.

I followed the following procedure:

  1. Copied SQL 2008 R2 RTM media to C:\SQL2008R2
  2. Deleted the x86 and ia64 directories.
  3. Extracted the x64 SP2 file to C:\SQL2008R2\SP
  4. Copied setup.exe from .\SP to .\
  5. Copied the files, but not the folders, and not the packagechain.dll from .\SP to .\
  6. Modified .\x64\DefaultInstall.ini to add PCUSOURCE=".\SP"

This process results in the following message:

"SQL Server setup media does not support the language of the OS or does not have the ENU localized files. Use the matching language-specific SQL Server media or change the OS locale through Control Panel."

I then tried copying the file .\SP\resources\1033\setup.rll to .\. This fails as well with the same error.

I then tried copying .\SP\1033_enu_lp and .\SP\resources to .\. This fails with the error:

"Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 installation has failed. SQL Server 2008 R2 Setup requires .NET Framework 3.5 SP1 to be installed."

Let me quickly point out that the setup media language matches the OS language and SP language (ENU). Also, .NET is most definitely installed. Running the RTM setup and SP setup programs standalone work fine.

Thanks!

Does SQL Server (2003, 2008, 2012) support TLS 1.2? Is so, how to configure it?

I have installed SQL Server 2008 R2 on a Windows 2008 R2 machine, and following instruction to set TLS 1.2 for IIS, while IIS works with TLS 1.2 (verified with a remote browser restricted to TLS 1.2), the SQL Server to a restricted client would fail and the server had chosen TLS 1.0 - anyone knows if there is a solution for this - many thanks.
