I am new to Sql Server. I have downloaded Sql server 2014 Sp1 & Cumulative Update Package 6 for SQL Server 2014 SP1(KB3144524). Just want to understand how to patch CU6. I did not initiate the sql server 2014 Sp1 installation.

Hello.
The company uses sql server 2008 R2 with several databases, ssis packages, etc. We are in the process of setting up a Dev server which we do not have yet...
Question:
Should we set-up the Dev box with sql server 2008 R2 first and then test the Dev environment i.e. point applications to Dev for testing, etc. or should we install sql server 2014 on the Dev server first or upgrade prod to sql server 2014 first?

What do you suggest please?

Thanks

Hello,

1. Considering SQL Server 2014 Express, both Windows Server 2012 R2 and Windows 7 SP1 Professional x64, are supported. I need virtual machine for SQL Server ONLY. Does it make sense to pay more for Windows Server? Would it be faster, better, _really_ more reliable then Windows 7 (or 8.1 or any other non-server OS)?

2. It is not recommended to install SQL Server on domain controller, although cheapest server version, Essentials, requires to be a DC. We has less then 20 users, there are roaming profiles in use (hosted by separate file server) and beside rights management DC has nothing more to do, while having plenty of RAM and CPU resources to use. Would it _really_ be a problem to have SQL Server on such DC?

Dear Experts,

Please help me out this issue.

I have configured the database mail setup in sql server 2012 evaluation version but facing following issue.

1- I have tested many mails and it working fine and mail is getting delivered on given Email id but when i see the mail log (sysmail_mailitems)details its showing that mail is send successfully. but the history log file showing that mail could not delivered due to some issue.

 as you can see the attached screen for record no mailid 1040 status is 1 but still in  log history table it showing error.

2- the second issue i m sending a test mail and its delivered successfully but no any table data is getting changed but when i change and enable xp mail services then only table data is getting  change

SELECT TOP 1000 [mailitem_id] ,[profile_id],[recipients] ,[sent_status] FROM [msdb].[dbo].[sysmail_mailitems] where mailitem_id=1049

SELECT *  FROM [msdb].[dbo].[sysmail_log] where mailitem_id=1049

please suggest,

Thank in advance.

Periodically we are finding that MSSSQLServer services are stopping. Inspection of the logs shows this each time it happens:

The start type of the SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) service was changed from auto start to disabled.

Nothing obvious just before the entry.

Anyone else come across this and know what it is?

I'm trying to setup SQL Server express on my ThinkPad.  I'm getting this error.  I'm not even sure what to call it.

Can anyone help me get this working?

Thanks in advance!!

We were hoping to download and apply Cumulative Update 5 for SQL 2014 SP1, but it is unavailable on the MS download site. The site only offers CU 6, which was just released 10 days ago (4/18/16).  We are a little nervous about applying a patch that has only been available for a short while.

Per the KB article, "after future Cumulative Updates are released for SQL Server 2014 Service Pack 1, this CU [CU5] can be located and downloaded from the Microsoft Windows Update Catalog".  We checked and found that none of the earlier CUs for SQL 2014 SP1 were available in the Update Catalog.

Any suggestions?

Hi,

We are trying to install SQL server 2012 express SP3 version on Windows server 2012 r2. Its giving the unspecified error once you start the setup. Same setup is working for other servers. We tried the multiple copies of same setup and also change the drive location but still same error on this particular server. Below is error snap for ref.

Please suggest. Is this a OS level issue?

Regards

Parag

Hello,

We recently upgraded our SQL Server 2012 Business Intelligence Edition installation to SQL Server 2014 Business Intelligence Edition. 

The following errors now occur in the SQL Server error log:

• Unsafe assembly 'microsoft.sqlserver.integrationservices.server, version=12.0.0.0, culture=neutral, publickeytoken=89845dcd8080cc91, processorarchitecture=msil' loaded into appdomain 3 (SSISDB.dbo[runtime].1).
• Unsafe assembly 'microsoft.ssdqs, version=11.0.0.0, culture=neutral, publickeytoken=89845dcd8080cc91, processorarchitecture=msil' loaded into appdomain 2 (DQS_MAIN.dbo[runtime].2).

Searching the web has yielded no results. Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Trying to login to SQL Server.  Getting this error.

I looked in Configuration Manager > SQL Server Agent. When I change the Start mode to Automatic, I get this error. 

Is there an easy work-around for this?  I hope I don't have to uninstall and re-install this thing.  It's going to take a loonnnngggg time to do everything if that's the only solution.

Any ideas, anyone?

I have already MS SQL 2008R2 express to be installed and configured on one of my Windows 2012 servers from the installation of WSUS and McAfee EPO. Can I install MS SQL 2008R2 licensed version on the same server? Will they interfere each other? 

Please advise!

Thank you very much!

I've had all kinds of problems setting up a new instance of SQL Server on my work laptop.  I've jumped through all kinds of hoops because permissions are very restricted on my machine.  It almost works now; I think this is the last thing.  I'm getting a 'permissions denied' error.  See the image below.

I Under Security > Logins > sa > Properties, I can't create any roles.  As soon as I check 1 checkbox and hit ok, I get another error message.

Is there an easy fix for this?

In C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Setup Bootstrap\Update Cache, I've got a copy of (what looks like) SQL Server 2008 SP1, occupying about 340MB of disk space.

Is it safe to delete this folder? Will deleting it impact upgrade or repair scenarios?

I have Signed up for SQL sever on Linux evaluation.

On March 16th, I received a download link from SQL server community for release candidate of SQL Server 2016.

But the link takes me to regular SQL server download page.

Was anyone able to successfully install SQL server on linux using the link provided in community newsletter?

Hi,

I am having SQL 2008 R2 SP3 infra.

On top of that I am having the MS15-058 Patch/CU installed.

The Situation I am Facing That:

Then I removed the Patch/CU MS15-058.

Now In control Panel MS15-058 hotfix is not listing Out(Which Should not be as I already Removed It)

But  In configuration Manger Or Registry it is still Pointing to MS15-058 Version.

NOTE: I restarted the machine Also.

Can any one Help me Out on this?

Then It will Be very Helpful.

Thanks In advance

Hello All,

I  have installed SQL server on machine X with MSA account. Now here is my issue.

I need to change server name from X to Y. Y is an existing server which we will shutdown first.

My question is what I need to do from MSA service account point of view. Can I create MSA account right now for existing Y server and change to use that with server later on? Would it work?

Thanks
