Problems Opening SS2012 Management Studio

$

0

Hello,

I've got a bit of an odd issue with Management Studio that came with SQL Server 2012 Dev edition.  Basically, it just will not actually open on the screen although the ssms.exe process does start and is viewable in task manager but it does then cause a blue screen if you try to kill that process.  So far I have tried the following and nothing has worked, so any further suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Repair installation

Full uninstall and reinstall

Full uninstall, reg / file system clean up, service pack of Windows 7 and reinstall

Repair installation of .Net Framework

I'm currently running Windows 7 Professional Service Pack 1

Thanks very much in advance.

FileTable on Windows 8: file share is not accessible?

$
0
0

Hi,

I've installed SQL 2012 on Windows 8 Enterprise. I've enabled FILESTREAM to remote streaming access. I then created a database containing a FileTable.

I am expecting, just like on Win 7, to be able to navigate to \\localhost and see the MSSQLSERVER share, then click on the database root folder and the table root folder and start creating new files, etc. However, when trying to navigating to \\localhost, MSSQLSERVER isn't listed. Typing in \\localhost\MSSQLSERVER (or any path thereunder) results in this error:

Windows cannot access \\localhost\MSSQLSERVER
...
Error code: 0x80004005
Unspecified error

However, when I right-click the FileTable in SSMS and select Explore FileTable Directory, it opens just fine in Windows Explorer and I can create new files and folders. Other applications, like Word, also are not able to navigate to \\localhost\MSSQLSERVER. But if a file is opened from the FileTable share, they can save it.

I would appreciate any help,

SA.

SQL 2008 backout procedure for patches/upgrades

$
0
0

Hi,

I am creating documenting for the procedure of patching/upgrading a two node cluster running Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise. I thought my work was done but then realised I need a backout plan. 

I understand that in a cluster upgrade the patch is installed to the passive node where it upgrades the SQL program files, then when the SQL instance is failed over it will automatically upgrade itself because it is sitting on upgraded program files. I guess this is when a major SQL service pack is applied, or can this also happen with hotfixes or cumulative upgrades? 

Do windows OS service packs or patches cause a SQL instance upgrade?

The MAIN problem is that if the SQL instance is upgraded it makes the backout very tricky. This is a small-scale financial banking system, and we don't want to lose any transactions. The procedure I'm creating has a prereq of "no downtime", unless it's the merest blip when the SQL instance fails over. Obviously I can uninstall the service pack/hotfix, but I'm still left with an upgraded SQL instance. 


Are there any alternatives to restoring the original SQL instance from a backup? I'm guessing that will require deleting the later version and restoring an earlier version, and will cause downtime. 

These are virtual machines so snapshotting beforehand would be an option, but that also needs to be done when SQL is down and would also cause downtime. 

Both options also risk losing transactions when the new instance is discarded for the old one. 

Can anyone advise?

Thanks!!

No key on MSDN to upgrade from SS 2012 trail to dev edition

$

Hey!

Before I had access to a developer version of SQL Server 2012 I installed the trial one, relying that I lateron can enter a key.

Now the MSDN site says there is no key needed for the 2012 developer version download! (My employer has a big account with MS!)

Does this mean that I need to uninstall trial and reinstall dev edition?

Thx

Hello,

I created an installation image using "PrepareImage" installation option as described in the BOL, This is my ConfigurationFile.ini:

(I used the installation package SQLEXPR32_x86_ENU.exe, on Window 7sp1 32 bit)

I did a sysprep of the machine and I run the CompleteImage step, with this configurationfile.ini

The step fail with error: "SQL Server 2012 edition upgrade" failed.

The selected SQL Server instance does not meet upgrade matrix requirements.

Any suggestion?

Our server is running Windows 2008 Standard Edition x64 with SP2.  We are attempting an upgrade from our SQL 2005 Standard Edition 64bit (we assume) to SQL 2012 64bit.  When trying to use the upgrade wizard, it does NOT find the instance or any features.  Attempted same upgrade with command prompt syntax and received the following error:

trying to install SQL 12 STd onto Server 2012 STD, but SQL requires .Net framework 3.5 as a prerequisite and it's not an automatic install during the setup of 2012.

I tried to manually install it but it keep giving error that it's not found on alternate path which is the DVD :\sources\sxs as Server Manager requests.

Any fixes or suggestions???

SQL 2012: Avoid "Extract Setup files"?

$
0
0

Hi,

I have a powershell script for our developers that handles a quiet-simple SQL 2012 install.  I have opted to slipstream from an update folder.  I currently have SQLServer2012-KB2723749-x64.exe and SQLServer2012-KB2723749-x86.exe in the folder (CU3).  I notice that the "Extract Setup files" takes a while.  I would like to reduce the install time if possible.  Is there a way to supply extracted updates so that setup can skip the extract setup files step? 

Thanks, Randy

SQL Server 2012 Express setup error with component error code 0x851A0019

$
0
0

I'm trying to install SQL Server 2012 Express in a Windows 7 Enterprise machine but always get this error when installing the named instance MAPS:
Wait on the Database Engine recovery handle failed. Check the SQL Server error log for potential causes.

The database engine does not start, even tried to change the user for local system or account.

It's important to refer that I've already had SQL 2012 Express installed and working in this machine, with the named instance MAPS. I can install other instances with other names, but not this one.

Because the previous install was for testing purposes and I now wanted to work on a clean install & DB I've uninstalled SQL and deleted the remaining folders in Programs and Programs (x86), including the local SQL user folders.

In the final stage of the setup I get the message "Wait on the Database Engine recovery handle failed. Check the SQL Server error log for potential causes."

Looking at the logs the error was "component error code 0x851A0019":
 
Detailed results:
  Feature:                       Database Engine Services
  Status:                        Failed: see logs for details

After many many hours searching the web and almost as many trial and error procedures, I've almost certain that the error resides in the registry, on the key HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-1125719120-3159512075-4029346314-500 that remained after the SQL uninstall and now the setup program can't overwrite.

I tried the manually delete the registry key but I can't, I always get a message indicating that there was an error deleting the key. I've also tried the usual, like changing the ownership and rights for this key, with no success. Most probably the key is corrupted.

I have also tried installing SQL and uninstalling again, with the same errors.

I am almost certain that if I could delete that registry key all my problems would go away, well, not all, but at least this one...

Can anyone help me on this?

SQLBrowser won't start

I have a named instance of Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.3042.00 (Intel X86).  We installed this with a preexisting version of SQL Server 2000.  Both SQL servers instances are running and Reporting Services 2005 is serving reports from the box.  The problem is SQLBrowser will not start so we can not access SQL Server 2005 from the network.  We can still access the SQL Server 2000 instance.

 

When I try to start the service with the surface area tool I get the following error:

 

The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion, you need administrator privileges to be able to start/stop this service. (SQLSAC)

 

SQLBrowser is set to start automatically. So about every 5 seconds the application event log shows the following after an autometic start attempt is made:

 

EventType sql90exception, P1 sqlbrowser.exe, P2 7.0.3790.1830, P3 4243785e, P4 msmdredir.dll, P5 9.0.3042.0, P6 45cd7cea, P7 0, P8 000936a4, P9 00000000, P10 NIL.

SQL2012 Cluster: Activity Monitor % Processor Time GRAYED OUT

$

I have, while logged-in as sa, run the following:

grant VIEW SERVER STATE to "me"
grant ALTER ANY DATABASE to "me"

"me" is my Windows domain login.

I have also added, as I'm a Local Admin on the cluster, my login and several other Groups to both the "Performance Log Users" Group AND the "Performance Monitor Users" Group in GPEDIT.

I have logged off Windows.

I have restarted SSMS2012.

What next?  Do I need to fail the cluster over?????

Please help as THIS Windows 2008 R2 SP1 cluster using SQL 2012 EE RTM refuses to show the % Processor Time graph.

I have equivalent permissions and Local Admin Group membership on the current cluster and SQL2008R2's Activity Monitor shows this graph...

EXASPERATED!

Thanks in hopes.........

SQL 2008 64 bit on Windows 2008 R2 Standard 64 bit

I receive emails from when I run my maintenance jobs.

Two questions.

1. I recieve more than one email for each job that completes actuaully I get three for every job step.

2. I am not sure but I think the verify option is failing on everyone of my job steps. ( see email below) the backup log line shows verify failed
    not sure what that means...

I am new to SQL 2008 so what am I doing wrong here?

Thanks for your help  Tom
