SQL Server 2005 collation type for the Discovery System?

Greetings,
The SQL Server 2005 Eval 180 day license expired on our Discovery System. I un-installed the Eval copy and installed a licensed SQL Server 2005 EE instance. I searched for the SQL Server collation, and found SAP Note 600027, which recommended Binary order for use with the 850 Multilingual Character Set as the collation.
I attached the existing databases using the script provided with the Discovery system. Started up the SAP ERP instance. I then tried to log into the ERP 300 and got a START_CALL_SICK error message. From the error message details I find, "DB CHECK Wrong Server collation. Perform SQL2005 after upgrade steps. Please see note 126973". Note 126973 seemed to refer me to note 799058. However this talks about upgrading....
It appears to me I simply chose the wrong SQL Server 2005 collation type when installing the licensed coipy of SQL Server.
What collation type should be used?
Thanks,
Jay Warling

After reviewing what I did, it appears I neglected to detach the databases before un-installing SQL Server 2005 evaluation copy.
I did stop the ERP system via the SAP MMC before un-installing but did not detach the databases.
I believe the collation is actually correct, but I am stumped as how to proceed with the START_CALL_SICK error message.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Jay

SP1 to R2 Upgrade - The installed Version of SQL Server is not supported for the operational database

Hello,
Am trying to upgrade a SCOM SP1 environment to SCOM R2( 3 MGT servers, 1 GW and 2 Web console boxes )
The prerequisites are failing and it is stating the following ;
Operational Database SQL Version Check - The installed Version of SQL Server is not supported for the operational database
Data Warehouse SQL Version Check - The installed Version of SQL Server is not supported for the data warehouse
The SQL servers are running SQL 2012 SP1 64 Enterprise, which is compatible.
All other pre-upgrade tasks have been done.
Help appreciated!

I'm having the exact same issue, I believe. I think that Tubble has problem with SCOM 2012. Not 2007.
I've checked the compatibility list for both SCOM 2012 SP1 and R2. All newer Windows Server and SQL versions are supported. We're running the SQL 2012 SP1 x64 Standard edition on a Windows Server 2012 Standard.
I even tried to move the database from SQL 2012 to an older SQL 2008 R2, but that's not supported either. Only upgrading. Not downgrading.
So, I started checking the opsMgrSetupWizard.log file for clues. And the error message was there as well. But the reason why it says not supported is that it can't get the info about the OS version, so I guess it assumes the OS version is to low. The RPC
service can not be reached.

So, in our case this was just a FW that was blocking some high ports between management server and SQL. I believe TCP port 135 also needs to be open.
Let's hope this fixes your issue as well, Tubble.
Have a great day!

MS SQL Server 2005 data types

Hi,
I have some code that executes a stored procedure in SQL Server 2005 database from Weblogic 8.1. There is a Spring framework layer in between. I am having problems passing a datetime parameter to the SP (ther server thinks it's a varchar). According to the BEA documentation here http://edocs.bea.com/wls/docs100/jdbc_drivers/mssqlserver.html#wp1088746, a datetime parameter should be passed as java.sql.Types.TIMESTAMP. I've tried TIMESTAMP, DATE, TIME, and none of them work. But, that documentation says it's only for SQL Server 2000. What about 2005? Does anyone know?
Thanks in advance.

We use SQL2005 & WebLogic 8.1, but we use the Microsoft JDBC driver form here
and it all works fine with timestamps. We use this datatype to pass them down java.sql.Timestamp
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=C47053EB-3B64-4794-950D-81E1EC91C1BA&displaylang=en
The MS driver has some enhancements specifically for SQL2005 for performance and handling the new data types. We've always been told to use the vendors driver in preference to the BEA supplied one - that came from BEA!

ODBC Drivers for SQL Server 2005 on AIX for OWB connect

Hi All -
I have a problem whereby I am trying to connect OWB with SQL Server 2005. The problem statement follows: -
Infrastructure: -
OWB Server installed on AIX
Oracle Installed on AIX
SQL Server 2005 source on Windows
OWB Client on windows XP
My problem is: -
I am trying to connect OWB with SQL Server 2005 for which I have to create heterogenous source entry in Oracle home. But AIX box does not have any ODBC drivers installed and hence I can not configure a DSN on the same. Can any one suggest where can I get these drivers and their installation steps.
Thanks in advance!

BI Publisher 11g - calling SQL Server 2005 stored procedure error

Hi experts
I have been calling succesfully an SQL server 2005 stored procedure for the data model of a BI publisher report in 10g, passing it a customerNo parameter.
EXEC     [dbo].[usp_WelcomeLettersConsumerNo]
          @CustomerNo = :sCustomerNo
However it does not work in 11g I get the error:
[Hyperion][SQLServer JDBC Driver][SQLServer]Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'is'.
which is frustrating as there is no 'is' in the statement (perhaps it is picking up :s?) - I wonder does anyone know if there has been a change in 11g that may be causing this?
cheers

Hi Vivek,
In Reporting Services, values for LogonUser, LogonDomain, and LogonCred are created when the report server connection is configured to use a domain account. As to the error that “The encrypted value for the "LogonCred" configuration setting cannot be decrypted”,
we can know that it relates to the domain account for report server connection.
To fix this issue, we can refer to the following steps:
Log in to SQL Server Database Engine in SQL Server Management Studio.
Under Security folder, give sufficient permissions for your domain account.
Open your Reporting Services Configuration (go to Start -> All Programs -> Microsoft SQL Server 2005 -> Configuration Tools -> Reporting Services Configuration)
Navigate to the Database Setup tab, select ‘Service Credentials’ as the Credentials Type, then type your domain account and password in there. Press Apply.
Restart the Report Server services.

Cannot set up data source for SQL Server 2005

Is it possible to use Microsoft's Beta 2 version of the SQL Server 2005 JDBC driver with WebLogic 9.0? I've downloaded the driver and added it to my server classpath, but when I try to create a new data source using the admin console, the drop-down list for Microsoft SQL Server only contains drivers for the 2000 version. If I select "Other" from the list and try to move on, I get a cryptic, page-long error on the admin console. If I just select the 2000 driver and try to manually modify the parameters on the next set of screens, I still get errors when I try to test the configuration. I've successfully used a third-party driver before, but this one does not seem to be working. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Regards,
Sabrina

Regards,
SabrinaHere I describe the steps I took to bypass the console in making a new pool.
1 - Edit the script %DOMAIN_HOME%\bin\startWebLogic.cmd to add a line like this:
set CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;\new_ms_driver\beta2\sqljdbc_1.0\enu\sqljdbc.jar
In other words, you have to explicitly add a third party driver's classes to
the CLASSPATH that will be in effect for the server. Just adding the driver
to your window's class path will do nothing.
2 - Go to the directory %DOMAIN_HOME%\config\jdbc, where you will find
files of the name *-jdbc.xml. Each of these represents a DataSource.
Copy one of them, perhaps either examples-demo-jdbc.xml, or
examples-demoXA-jdbc.xml depending on whether you want to make an XA
or non-XA pool. Make you new file's name like the name of the DataSource,
still ending in -jdbc.xml. Eg: MS_Beta-jdbc.xml
3 - Edit this file to change as much as would be clear for the
driver you want. Eg: change the driver class to the class you want,
the user name, URL, test table etc. Also, change the pool's initial
capacity to 0. This is so the pool can be created without making a
connection. We need that because the password is encrypted, and
there is no manual way for you to add the correct one yet.
4 - go one directory up, and edit the config.xml. Find a
jdbc-system-resource entry corresponding to the original
resource file you copied. Make a new entry in the config file,
like the original, but change the Datasource name to your new one.
5 - If this all went well, reboot your server and go to your data
source in the console, and edit it. Alter the password to what it
really should be, and you can also change whatever else you might
want.
6 - shut down again, and reboot, and you should then be able to go to
your data source in the console and test a connection.
That's it. Here is an example of a jdbc.xml file I made, and
the entry I made in the config.xml:
config/jdbc/newpool-jdbc.xml:

Hi,
Following solution might help you to resolve the issue.
Solution1:
Issue happens because universe connection to the Database is not responding and the Data Source Name is not configured to write SQL Server 2005 database.
Resolution
Created new DSN connection under SYSTEM DSN to SQL Server 2005 Database.
Import the universe from the designer.
Go to File->Parameters.
Edit Connection.
On the Database Middleware Page expand SQl Server 2005->Select SQL Server 2005 driver.
Change the DSN to new DSN connection
Test the connection.
Save the Universe and Export it to the repository.
Solution2:
I am taking Oracle as an example over here.
This can be caused when the SQLNET.ora is located in a remote location using mapped drives.
Resolution
To resolve,
check the registry [HKLM\SOFTWARE\ORACLE] you should see a folder called HOME0
look for any paths that contain a mapped drive partition
Change the mapped drive letter to a UNC path (
server\folder)
Open a command prompt and do a tnsping using the tnsname and verify the location of the SQLNET.ora or TNSNAMES.ora
If the path is not updated to the new path
Reboot the server

I plan to upgrade the SSRS 2005 SP2 enterprise edition in our internal web server to 2005 SP4, the Reporting server database is hosted in another sql server in sql server 2005 SP4. Do I need to do anything on the reporting server database side?

My question is what the steps do I need to take to upgrade SSRS from 2005 SP2 to SP4. The web server that host the SSRS is in 2005 SP2, and the OS is in window 2003.
Our SSRS report server and report server database are in different servers. The SSRS in the web server is in 2005 SP2 enterprise edition, the report server database is in sql server 2005 SP4 enterprise edition.
To upgrade the SSRS in web server from 2005 sp2 to sp4, do I need to backup/restore the encryption key? Nothing will be changed in the report server database. We will still pointing to the same database in the current server, all
I wanted to do is performing a inplace upgrade of SSRS from 2005 SP2 to SP4.
Any response will be greate appreciated. Thank you!

Hi Lihui Chen,
According to your description, you want to install the Services Pack 4 for SQL Server. Right?
In SQL Server, Services Packs are used for fixing issues of current version product. It's not an Upgrade, you don't have to backup/restore your encryption key. You just need to download the Service Pack 4 on:
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 4 RTM . Please make sure you have administrative rights on the computer to install SQL Server 2005 SP4. For more information, see links below:
How to obtain the latest service pack for SQL Server 2005
List of the issues that are fixed in SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 4
SQL Server 2005 SP4, KBA 2463332, Installation Issues
If you have any question, please feel free to ask.

Arc is not implemented for SQL Server 2005 physical model

I added the Arc in my relational model, which is supposed to provide that references are mutually exclusive (so only one refering column can be not null). However there is not any implementation for this in the SQL Server 2005 physical model. The SQL code generated simply ignores the Arc and allows any values for the columns covered by Arc. If we check Oracle physical model. then it generates some trigger, which controls how many columns have values assigned - this is actually an implementation of Arc. But there is nothing of this kind for SQL Server model...
By the way, implementing this Arc by trigger looks like to heavy approach. The very simple table level check constraint will do the same job. But this is a different subject though.

Hi Dmitry,
it's fixed in Data Modeler 3.1 EA2.

Homogeneous system copy for SQL server 2005

Hi All,
I am currently investigating for the method to perform system copy for a PI system with SQL server 2005 database. Using the System Copy for SAP Systems Based on NW 7.0 SR2 ABAP+Java as guide, I can see reference to Note 151603. However, I am unable to get a copy of that note. Searching for the note from the official SAP Notes Search area indicated that it is currenytly only avaiable internally.
Would anyone know where I will be able to get a copy of that note?
Thanks,
Wi

PI is version 7.1 (not 7.0) - so you need to use a different system copy guide.

Required Microsoft Sql Server 2005 Server Roles for JDBC Connection

Hi!
I have developed a database in MS SQL Server 2005, to which I would require only bulkadmin server role from an external java application, because I only need to update rows, insert values or use select queries in the database.
The problem is that, using either the Microsoft JDBC Driver 1.1 or the Java JDBC ODBC Driver and the Windows XP Data Base (ODBC) configurations, I need a user with sysadmin server role inside Sql Server, otherwise JDBC won't connect to the database using the selected user. Even if I leave the sql login with setupadmin or any server role lower than sysadmin, the connection is refused.
Is there no way to connect using JDBC to MS Sql Server 2005 other than granting the connected user sysadmin rights? My code looks as follows:
String driver = "com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver";
String url = "jdbc:sqlserver://FIREBLADE\\SQLEXPRESS";
String user = "username";
String password = "password$$";
Connection conn;
Class.forName(driver);
conn = DriverManager.getConnection(url,user,password);
if (conn != null)
System.out.println("\nSQL Server Connection established ...\n");
I have heard that Java JDBC connections to Microsoft require high-level access, and if that's the case I would rather migrate my database to MySql.
Any informed answer is more than welcome. Thanks for reading my post!

Well i personally prefer usage of open source MS SQL SERVER 2k jdbc driver called jtds instead of the driver provided by MS themselves(which is proproteriry) as i had similar problem which i personally encountered when i was using it.
go through the below link for further info.

Sender JDBC support the stored procedure in SQL Server 2005

Dear All,
My question here is , Sender is JDBC adpter support to call the Stored procedure in Microsoft SQL Server 2005?
I followed the below thread before posting this question
Sender JDBC Adapter Supports Stored Procedures????
In the thread Suraj response has mentioned SAP note: 941317, I checked the note, Note says it supported only ORACLE DBMS versions.
Could you please clarify about this to possibility to call the stored procedure in Microsoft SQL server 2005?
Thank you in Advance
Sateesh

Hi Sateesh,
To answer your query, Yes it does. SP call works with SQL Server 2005 as well, the SP call should be "execute SPNAME <paramas>". In the place of update statement put any junk value as mentioned in the earlier comment.
But just one thing to be noted, the select or any other query returning the desired resultset must be the first statement in youre SP returning value to the calling app. Means if there are any update, deletion or intermediate select queries to be used with in your SP, those all should be placed after the Main Select query that returns the desired resultset. Variable declarions and assignments are allowed.
But if the seq of statements in your SP are like:
@var1 Varchar
Update <tablename>....
Select * from <tablename>
Then the output of the SP is :
1 row updated
<the resultset from select>
In such cases, PI can recognise the first value returned only, that is "1 row updated" and hence the returned resultset wouldn't be seen by PI or not be passed to integration engine. Hence the update should come after the main Select.
One more interesting piece of information, even if you copy and paste the entire SP code in place of the query string of Sender JDBC adapter, that too will work with all your variable declarations, multiple queries and updates and everything. Just have to follow the above rule.
Let us know what you find.

CR with VS 2003 Oracle vs SQL Server 2005

VS2003
Windows XP
All Crystal Reports designed using "push" model (Seting the Report Document's SetDataSource property using a single table dataset)
I have a large VS2003 application (90+ Crystal Reports) using an Oracle database. The client wants to switch to SQL Server 2005. The application works with SQL Server "as is" except for the Crystal Reports. A query engine error is generated. The tables/views are quite simple using only integers, decimals, char and varchar columns, no datetime columns. The dataset's Name and datatable's Name are the same, the only difference is the data provider used. Microsoft's Oracle Data provider vs Microsoft's SQL Server Data provider. Any thoughts? Any workarounds?.
I am in the process of converting the application to VS2008 and the problem does not exist in the VS2008 version. Crystal Reports converted from VS2003 to VS2008 work with either database/data provider.,
Edit: It appears that Oracle does not differentiate between datatypes decimal and int32. Any thoughts. (Not the problem)

An assumption here is that your .NET 2003 app is using the bundled version of CR(?) - version 9.1. If that is the case, make sure you have updated your install with SP1:

Next, see if this blog will help you in troubleshooting the issue:

re:

Not sure how this relates to Crystal Reports as such? But let's work on one issue per thread. If you want to work the data type issue more, please create a new thread. Otherwise, these things get too messy...
