Compatibility of Toplink with SQL SERVER 2005 Enterprise edition

Hi All,
We have J2EE application developed using TopLink ORM, which is running on SQL server 2000 standard edition, and now we are planing to migrate the SQL server 2000 to SQL server 2005 Enterprise edition, so please let me know whether TopLink supports for SQL server 2005 Enterprise edition or is there any disadvantages.
Looking for your advice earliest
Thanks in advance.
Anand Siddacharya.

Yes, TopLink supports any SQL compliant database with a JDBC compliant driver.
As long as you have a JDBC driver that works correctly, I can't see any issues in the upgrade.

  • ColdFusion and MS SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition

    Trying to get ColdFusion (Developers Edition) to communicate
    with MS SQL Server 2005 (Enterprise Edition). I have ColdFusion
    running on username = admin; password = as set up when installed.
    Have also tried setting up a user account with my Windows desktop
    username and password in case ColdFusion needed to be logged on as
    the same user as the SQL server. I have full admin permissions on
    the SQL Server (with Windows authentication), and am the database
    "owner" of the database on the server. In either ColdFusion login
    case, when I try to "add a data source", with driver = Microsift
    SQL Server, I get.....
    Connection verification failed for data source: CFtoVolcano
    java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC
    Driver][SQLServer]Login failed for user 'kewing'.
    The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException:
    [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver][SQLServer]Login failed for user
    'kewing'.
    Went to help files (troubleshooting area) and verified that
    the local web browser (IIS) and Cold Fusion ARE running. Next step
    takes me to "Change ColdFusion user account" which starts with
    "Open Control Panel and select ColdFusion 8 App Server and click
    Startup". I don't see that choice in MyComputer/ControlPanel. Not
    even sure if this is going to ba another dead end anyway!!!
    HELP! This shouldn't be this difficult! I'm not using some
    weird version of SQL!

    To use the default SQL drivers bundled with CF you need to
    use SQL authentication (which is disabled by default I think) in
    SQL Server 2005. If you enable SQL (mixed mode) authentication and
    create a user you can then add the data source in the CF admin.
    Alternatively, in order to use integrated windows
    authentication with SQL server your CF service needs to run as
    specific user. (It sounds like you've already done this) and you
    will need to use Microsoft's JDBC driver
    Driver download (MS JDBC Driver)

  • TopLink with SQL Server 2005

    Could someone help answer this question:
    Has TopLink 10.1.3.x been certified to support SQL Server 2005?
    I appreciate your information.
    Haiwei

    It is certified on SQL Server 2000.
    I know some customers are using it with SQL Server 2005, though.

  • DG4MSQL v11.2.0.1 certified with Sql Server 2005 Express Edition?

    We are working on a proof of concept and need to use Oracle Database Gateway for MS Sql Server - DG4MSQL version 11.2 - on 64bit Linux to connect to a Windows database that is using SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. I reviewed the certification matrix for the database gateways and it lists that SQL Server 2005 is certified - but does not specify which editions.
    We are having some problems connecting to the SQL Server database and want to make sure that we should be able to connect to the express edition.
    Thanks.

    Yes, DG4MSQL 11 is certified with SQL Server Express Edition.

  • Accessing v 7 dbase from sql server 2005 enterprise edition

    Hi, i would appreciate any help with this issue i have come across when trying to access a version 7 dbase from within sql server 2005.
    The error message is telling me that "This version of SQL server man studio can only be used to connect to SQL Server 2000 and SQL servers 2005"
    I am new with SQL server so ill explain how im accessing it. I am connecting a server with sql 2005 on it via net support then through this trying to access another server with v 7 on it.
    Thanks for the help in advance.

    I see little purpose in resurrecting or "cleaning out" these threads.  I cannot see that asking the OP if the problem still persists after 6 years has any useful purpose - and someone follows along shortly afterwards (since the thread has now risen
    to the front of the forum) with a post that he then marks as an answer.  It looks like there are over 900 threads in this forum alone that are unanswered - and I'll guess that this forum has significantly less volume than some of the others (9100 in tsql).
     If MS wants to apply manpower to that, so be it.  But immediately following a "is this still a problem" post with  a suggestion/mark as answer does not seem to do much beyond generate volume.  At a minimum it is inappropriate for someone
    to propose one's own post as an answer regardless of their official forum position.  
    And if we follow this cleanup logic, what is accomplished if the OP never responds?  Odds are that there will be none, so why bother? Alternatively, just actually mark the thread as answered with some sort of "cleanup, no response from OP" post.  The
    end result is the same. 
    Well, no one cared enough to answer his question 5 years ago. I want to change that. My time machine is broken right now, but I can still check to see if people still care about their issues. Because I care. Even if it's old. We should all care.
    I understand that not everyone sees the value of asking about a 5-year old question. But what exactly does it hurt? How does showing I care about the person become a problem? We made you read it? Is that the problem?

  • Troble configuring Hyperion Shared Services with SQL Server 2005

    I recently installed SQL server (SQL SERVER 2005) in my machine and then am trying to install Hyperion (9.3.1) products. I started with Shared services. It was installed successfully. Problem is occuring when am trying to configure Shared service with SQL database using Hyperion Configuration utility (9.3.1)
    The error which is popping up is
    Unable to connect to the database for the product Hyperion Shared Services.
    Things which I tried from my end
    1. Made sure TCP IP Protocol was enabled in SQL server configuration server.
    2. hypuser was created in SQl server.
    3. hypdb was created in SQL server.
    4. Was having dynamic IP address so install Loopback adapter to obtain Static IP address and port.
    5. Port and IP address was correct.
    Let me know where I am going wrong.
    Any help will be greatly appreciated.

    Finally got it fixed firewall settings needed to be change : This document helped me a lot to troubleshoot the issue
    An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 2)
    This problem may occur when SQL Server 2005 is not configured to accept incoming local and remote connections, which is disabled by default in SQL Server 2005 Express Edition, SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition and also SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition. To solve the connection forbidden problem, SQL Server 2005 needs to configure to allow incoming local and remote connections.
    Firstly, ensure that SQL Server 2005 is configured properly to allow incoming connections on the instance of database server, else enable and turn on the local and remote connections setting.
    Click Start button, then go to Programs or All Programs, then select Microsoft SQL Server 2005, followed by Configuration Tools. Click and run the SQL Server Surface Area Configuration.
    On the “SQL Server 2005 Surface Area Configuration” page, click Surface Area Configuration for Services and Connections.
    On the “Surface Area Configuration for Services and Connections” page, expand Database Engine tree, click Remote Connections.
    Select Local and remote connections, or Local connections only which applicable only if there is no remote system tries to connect to the SQL Server, useful when you just trying to connect and authenticate with the server after installing.
    Select the appropriate protocol to enable to local and/or remote connections environment. To ensure maximum compatibility, select Using both TCP/IP and named pipes.
    Click Apply button when done.
    Click OK button when prompted with the message saying that “Changes to Connection Settings will not take effect until you restart the Database Engine service.”
    On the “Surface Area Configuration for Services and Connections” page, expand Database Engine, then click Service.
    Click Stop button to stop the SQL Server service.
    Wait until the MSSQLSERVER service stops, and then click Start button to restart the MSSQLSERVER service.
    Secondly, SQL Server Browser service has to be enabled to allow for local and remote connections if SQL Server 2005 is running by using an instance name and users are not using a specific TCP/IP port number in the connection string.
    Click Start button, then go to Programs or All Programs, then select Microsoft SQL Server 2005, followed by Configuration Tools. Click and run the SQL Server Surface Area Configuration.
    On the “SQL Server 2005 Surface Area Configuration” page, click Surface Area Configuration for Services and Connections.
    On the “Surface Area Configuration for Services and Connections” page, click SQL Server Browser.
    Select Automatic as the Startup type to start SQL Server Browser service automatically every time system starts.
    Click Apply button.
    Click on Start button to start the service immediately.
    Click OK button.
    Finally, if remote computer needs to connect and access SQL Server, an exceptions in Windows Firewall included in Windows XP SP2 (Service Pack 2), Windows Server 2003 and Windows Vista needs to be created. If you’re using third-party firewall system, the exception rules also needed to be created to allow external remote connections to the SQL Server 2005 and SQL Server Browser Service to communicate through the firewall, else connections will be blocked. Consult the firewall manual for more details. Each instance of SQL Server 2005 must have its own exception, together with an exclusion for SQL Server Browser service.
    SQL Server 2005 uses an instance ID as part of the path when you install its program files. To create an exception for each instance of SQL Server, you must identify the correct instance ID. To obtain an instance ID, follow these steps:
    Click Start button, then go to Programs or All Programs, then select Microsoft SQL Server 2005, followed by Configuration Tools. Click and run the SQL Server Configuration Manager.
    In “SQL Server Configuration Manager”, click the SQL Server Browser service in the right pane, right-click the instance name in the main window, and then click Properties.
    On the “SQL Server Browser Properties” page, click the Advanced tab, locate the instance ID in the property list.
    Click OK button.
    Then create an exception for SQL Server 2005 in Windows Firewall.
    Click on Start button, the click on Run and type firewall.cpl, and then click OK. For Windows Vista, type firewall.cpl in Start Search box and press Enter key, then click on Allow a program through Windows Firewall link on left tasks pane.
    In “Windows Firewall”, click the Exceptions tab, and then click Add Program.
    In the “Add a Program” window, click Browse button.
    Click the C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Binn\sqlservr.exe executable program, click Open button. MSSQL.1 with is a placeholder for the instance ID that is obtained from previous procedure. Note that the path may be different depending on where SQL Server 2005 is installed.
    Click OK button.
    Repeat steps 1 through 5 for each instance of SQL Server 2005 that needs an exception.
    For SQL Server Browser service, locate the C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Shared\sqlbrowser.exe executable program, and click Open button.
    Click OK button.

  • Installation of SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with Mobile Sales 5.0 SP07

    Dear gurus,
    I have the following question for you: is it possible to run Mobile Sales 5.0 SP07 with SQL Server 2005 Exp Edition? The specifications that I have found for both applications are:
    - MOBILE CLIENT:
    Installation of Mobile Client with CRM release 5.0 requires the installation of Microsoft .NET framework 1.1. (OSS note 879643)
    - SQL Server Express Edition: Microsoft .NET framework 2. 0
    Has anyone installed it this way?
    Thank you in advance,
    Judit.

    Hello Judith,
    It is possible to have 5.0 SP07 Mobile Client installed on machine with SQL Server Express edition. For more information on this, you may refer the installation guide for 5.0 SP07 (Software Pre-requisites section, SQL Server versions). However, please note, you cannot install 5.0 SP07 Mobile Development Workstation on Express edition due to the large repository size.
    You may feel free to get back to me in case of any further concerns/comments.
    Thanks and Best Regards,
    Niranjan
    (Reward points will be appreciated if you feel this issue is resolved).

  • SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition Compatability with Latest Operating Systems

    Hi Team,
    My client is using SQL Server 2000 Enterprise edition for the database in the Production.
    Now,We are planning to load that data from SQL 2000 to SQL 2012 and test the functionality.
    Can you please tell me on which operations systems the SQL Server 2000 is compatible to Install ?
    like Windows Server 2012/ 2012 R2/ Windows 7/ 8 etc.
    Thanks
    Srikrishna

    Installing SQL Server 2000 on Windows 2008 or later is not supported, but your question is about compatibility rather than support.  SQL Server 2000 may work with the database engine but not with some other features and you'll probably need
    to click through warnings installation. Proceed at your own risk if you want to go down that path.
    I suggest you install on Windows 2003 for your migration testing to avoid obstacles.  Not that support ends for Windows Server 2003 in a few months.

  • Toplink with sql server

    I have sucessfully used Toplink with Oracle. ow I have to use it with MS SQL server and I am having problems. First of all, in the Mapping Worbench, the only SQL server driver listed is weblogic.jdbc.mssqlserver4.Driver. Why can't I use the regular ms sql driver, com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver? Why should the mapping workbench be tied to Weblogic? If one did not have Weblogic, would it be impossible to use Toplink with SQL server? Well, I have Weblogic, so I tried using the weblogic driver with the url jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://<host ip>:1433;DatabaseName=<db name>. When I try to connect, a dialog box appears that says: "java.sql.SQLException $$$$$$$$$$ License Exception $$$$$$$$$$ Missing license for: WebLogic Server 6.1. $$$$$$$$$$ License Exception $$$$$$$$$$ Username or password could be invalid." I have weblogic.jar in the classpath. I tried adding the line SET WLS61_HOME=M:\bea610\wlserver6.1 to workbench.cmd. It didn't help. Any suggestions?

    I already tried this. It does not work. I put the following jars in the classpath in workbench.cmd: msbase.jar;mssqlserver.jar;msutil.jar. Then I start workbench. When I try to enter com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver as the driver, I get an exception. Here is the stacktrace:

    If I ignore the exception and try to connect to the database anyway, it tries to use the weblogic driver.
    Next I manually edited the database xml file and put in the driver name automatically. When I bought up the mapping workbench again, it again threw an exception. However, the correct driver name was in the file, so it did finally let me connect to the database. So it seems there IS a bug, although it has to do with the GUI and not SQL server per se.

Is there any restrictions with this connectivity with 8.5 version ?Please, let me known, all informations about SQL Server 2005 and Crystal Report 8.5.Thanks for all !Best regards Anthony

    Hello Kamlesh,
    There is no expectation that the ActiveX viewer (RDC?) from CR8.5 will work in any version of Visual Studio .NET. There is also no expectation that the ActiveX viewer from CR8.5 will work on a machine with a 64 bit operating system.
    You're using VS2008. You should migrate to the bundled edition of CR for VS2008 (v10.5), the ReportDocument object, and the .NET Windows form viewer or Web form viewer.

  • ODI 10.1.3.5 with SQL Server 2005

    Good afternoon,
    We recently installed 10.1.3.5, in a Windows environment with SQL Server 2005 and Hyperion Essbase/Planning/HFM 11.1.1. We were following John Goodwin's infamous blog (thanks, John!), but ran into a number of snags.
    For instance, when we set-up interfaces with flat files as the source, loading metadata either to Planning or Essbase, ODI errors out when:
    1) our header name in the flat file has spaces (using double quotes didn't work)
    2) our header name in the flat file is different than the reverse property name from Essbase/Planning.
    Also, we're now seeing an issue in our Flat file to Essbase metadata interface where the SQL used in the IKM seems to be incorrect. Below is the error message we're receiving:
    "org.apache.bsf.BSFException: exception from Jython:
    Traceback (innermost last):
    File "<string>", line 20, in ?
    com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: An object or column name is missing or empty. For SELECT INTO statements, verify each column has a name. For other statements,
    look for empty alias names. Aliases defined as "" or [] are not allowed. Add a name or single space as the alias name."
    We are thinking that the culprit may be either the wrong .jar or .jre we're using with SQL Server 2005, as there seem to be inherent issues with the SQL generated in the LKM and IKM. Our questions to you:
    1. What sqljdbc.jar driver version are you using?
    2. What .jre version are you using?
    3. What environment does the above work correctly in? (perhaps an earlier version of ODI against an earlier version of Hyperion?)
    FYI - We have tried sqljdbc 1.0 and 2.0, with .jre 1.6.0_10.
    Thanks in advance!

    Thank you very much for responding!
    After a 2 week battle, we are now finally coming to a close on our issues (although we cannot say for sure what all of the causes were).
    Here is what we discovered about our questions, through other threads:
    1. John Goodwin was using JRE 1.6.x, so we ruled that out as a culprit.
    2. Others are using SQL Server 2005 just fine with ODI, so we ruled this out too. We chose to keep the sqljdbc 2.0 driver.
    Here are some issues we did uncover during our investigation:
    1. We were having issues with our agent, specifically regarding the HFM technology. We created a new one, added a few extra parameters, compiled the agent, and are now back up and running. We realized the problem when we switched to "Local (No Agent)" and saw that we were not having as many issues.
    2. We went into the physical agent and pressed "Update Scheduling". We do not know if this had any effect, but we suddenly noticed that our flat file header issues were resolved.
    3. The Essbase issue was due to a configuration error with our Hyperion Essbase physical technology. We went into that technology and changed a setting on the "Languages" tab, called "Object Delimiter". It had double-quotes in it - we removed that parameter and instantly saw a change in the SQL being executed.
    4. Some of the mappings in our interfaces needed to be executed on different environments. i.e. - We needed to switch to "staging" when the flat file header was different than the target column name. Newbie mistake - we thought ODI had built-in intelligence to choose correctly for us.
    5. When doing a reverse on Essbase models, we noticed that the Essbase columns would populate with an "Undefined" datatype, instead of the expected CHAR. We have to manually define all column datatypes after every Essbase reverse now. Must be a bug.
    6. We also noticed when doing a flat file reverse that all columns auto-populate with datatype STRING, length 50. We have to manually personalize that option for different Hyperion applications, based on need. i.e. - some require numeric datatypes, or smaller/larger lengths. This was obviously a newbie error. :)
    Thank you for your tip on the MS SS2005 JDBC drivers - we will look into your other options - IMHO, JTDS, etc.

    Do you have your SQL server set to Windows Authentication mode only?
    You should change it to allow mixed authentication. You can do this in SQL Server Management Studio under Server Properties -> Security.
