Hi all,
I have a client who is planning on upgrading from SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2 to SQL Server 2008 R2 SP3 but wants to make sure that their installed Team Foundation Server 2012 databases will be ok?
I have found a Microsoft article saying that TFS 2012 support SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2 but nothing about SP3.
Thanks for your help!

Hello,
We had tempdb on separate drive, and all logs too (except master mdf and ldf, which are still accessible), however, I cannot open dialog on Microsoft SQL Server Managelent Studio. It tells me the following:
The log for database 'tempdb' is not available. Check the event log for related error messages. Resolve any errors and restart the database.
The drives mentioned above are permanently gone. At this point, I am looking at rebuilding the server from the scratch, likely, I have backups on another machine, however, I need to build new server with all files on one drive (C drive, versus before it was spread between different drives). The server that I am about to build will be our staging environment, so I do not care too much about the performance. How can I destroy whatever left over or salvage the existing one without having tempdb and model at first?
Ideally, I would like to drop any existing user dbs, add tempdb and model, and restore all other databases from backup. Any suggestion on how to do it properly?
Thank you very much!

Hello,
I have two instances of SQL Server 2014 installed and i want to uninstall them (and install SQL Server 2012 evaluation). I managed to uninstall the one instance. When i try to uninstall the second a message informs me that the operating system does not meet the minimum requirements. I had the same proble when uninstalling SQL Server 2012 and i went to the setup file and changed the compatibility mode to Windows Vista. Is there something similar that i should do in the case of SQL Server 2014 or i should do something totally different?
Thanks in advance,
Andreas
I'm running sql server 2008 R2 Developer on a win7 (pro) workstation. I would like to keep this installation because it has SSRS and Analysis Server. But I was not able to attach a sql 2012 DB so I downloaded Sql Server Express 2012 (per the picture below - 1st option selected) and installed it. Sql Server Express 2012 appears to be running -- per my services list, but I cannot see the instance in ssms 2008 R2. Do I need to uninstall Sql Server Express 2012 and then download another option (from the picture below)? How should I proceed so that I can have a working/workable instance of Sql Server Express 2012 that I can see in ssms (whatever required version) and also keep sql server 2008 R2? which download should I select (from the picture below?

Hi All,
I have installed the SQL server 2012 "Full" into my laptop and build a tool on ssis, and the tool were working greate for couple of months normally till last week when I did edited the host file on my localhost (this step was required for installing
one tool from my company, and they ask for adding a server IP to the host file then the tool will work...the company tool worked fine after adding the new IP into the host while my own SQL server & SSIS tool is not working...Error message are below.
I did edit the host file again and remove the added new line/IP address but the sql server still not accessing my local PC host.
Thanks in advance for any helpful advice to have this problem solved.

I have a database driven app written in Visual Studio 2005 or the release before.
It works fine on windows xp, 7x64, server 2008R2.
I installed on Server 2012R2, and it will not connect to the database. (which is a SqlServerExpress2014 database)

I suspect that there's a 32 to 64 bit mismatch, but, am lost at the moment
killed one transaction, roll back is running almost 4 hours. while doing rollback is it possible to change db to single user mode
when i ran to get status of killed process
getting msg. like this
SPID 135: transaction rollback in progress. Estimated rollback completion: 0%. Estimated time remaining: 0 seconds.
looks like it is doing nothing
thanks

Had SQL Server 2008, using SQL Server Installation Center to ugprade to SQL Server 2014 Enterprise. I'm on Windows 7. Ran into some issues.
Everything went smoothly using the upgrade wizard, but near the end I got an alert telling me that it couldn't complete some parts of the installation process because my workstation needed to be restarted. The last page had a few green checks and a few red X's, but I didn't hang around to check what they were - closed everything, restarted computer. Went back after restart, ran the upgrade wizard again - now it fails at the Instance Configuration step with the error message "The Instance ID 'MSSQLSERVER' is already in use by SQL Server instance 'MSSQLSERVER.INACTIVE'. To continue, specify a unique Instance ID.
Tried researching problem, came to a blog post about fixing a failed SQL Server install/upgrade that involved running msiexec /x from the command line, but that solution didn't work for me either - the command line uninstall led to a dialog saying that it failed to uninstall.
Current state is that there's a SQL Server 2014 folder in my start menu, but SQL Server Management Studio is missing from it. If I open my database in SSMS 2008, it says the DB version is 10.0.5512 - post upgrade, I gather it should be at least 12.0.
Is there any way for me to salvage this installation without uninstalling everything, losing all my DB configurations, and starting clean?
I am trying to eval SQL Server 2014 for use on a new BI project that we starting. However, the first step, downloading and installing the Akamai NetSession Interface (download mgr. ) is failing to install on my laptop due, as it raises the following error message: " Failed to install client: Unable to register Control Panel. Aborting installation." I have tried running it as Administrator, and granting my ID security to run it. Both tasks failed to get it to install.
Can you please help me get beyond this roadblock?

We received our official media that is SQL Server 2012 SP1, and we are encountering errors when upgrading.
Creating procedure sp_delete_jobserver...
Error: 10011, Severity 16, State 1.
Access Denied
Error: 917, Severity 15, State: 1.
An upgrade script batch failed to execute for database 'master' due to compilation error. Check the previous error message for the line that caused compilation to fail.
Error: 912, Severity 21, state: 1.
Script level upgrade for database 'master' failed because upgrade script 'sqlagent100_msdb_upgrade.sql' encountered error 917, state 1, severity 15. This is a serious error condition which might interfere with regular operation and the database will be taken offline. If the error happened during the upgrade of the 'master' database, it will prevent the entire SQL Server Instance from starting. Examine the previous errorlog entries for errors, take appropriate corrective actions and restart the database so that the script upgrade steps run to completion.
During testing with SQL Server 2012 with SP2, I never had a problem. Is there a work around, or should I use the product key from the official media and using the ISO we have been testing with?
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks.

I am an automation engineer responsible for keeping the systems online. A machine was added to my list of responsibility which has SQL 2000 running on WinXP. I would like to upgrade the OS and SQL server but the program that runs the automatic testing machine will not like the new OS. The machine has many Data Acquisition (DAQ)and Controls hardware so re-writing the program is not an option at this time. I would like to seek advice on following
1) How can I connect to the Database Instance on the machine from my laptop and service the tables (Copy the test data that is more than 3 months old to my laptop )? I hope it is possible.
2) Can I get a spy utility to that will tell me what SQL statements are being sent from the DAQ program that will give me an idea if upgrading to a newer SQL server is an option (for compatibility reasons)?
3) If step 1 is possible is there a Utility I can acquire that will make the task easier as we may have to do that every so often?
Thanks
Hi there
I have a application that is deploying and installing correctly (Setup and Deployment Project in VS 2008) and has SQL 2008 Express as a pre-requisite. SQL Express installs fine if not found but I don't want it to be installed if any other version of SQL Server already exists on the target computer. What do I have to adjust in the Bootstrapper package (package.xml or product.xml) for SQL Express to do this check? Is the change done within the Bootstrapper package? Do I have to create a Custom Action in my Deployment project for this check? Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
