SQL 2005: (yep!) During setup how place "ldf" files on drive D, "mdf" on drive E?

Lovers of sql 2005 (all 2 of you) -- rejoice -- a question for you
We have an old sql 2005 box that I am rebuilding with a newer OS (please, don't ask why!) but using the original master, msdb, etc.   The main problem I'm having is during the sql 2005 install I need to install the log files on drive D and the mdf's
on E but the setup program does not seems to allow for this. (I can setup "Databases Services" on drive D but then the log files are on D too. Not what I wanted.)

I have long forgotten Installation of 2005 but I doubt, that it wont allow you .Anyways after installation you can change the location its not big deal.

  • Specify SQL Server Port During Setup

    I am installing ConfigMgr 2012 R2 in an environment that requires remote SQL.  In addition, the remote SQL uses a custom port and does not run the SQL Browser service.
    Is there a way to specify the SQL Server port during setup? I know I can specify the port for the SQL Service Broker, but I need to specify the port for the SQL Server instance itself.
    Any insight/experiences are greatly appreciated!
    Thanks,
    Jeff

    You will need to change the port in SQL Server Network Configuration

  • How to add files from iPod to new hard drive after krasch?

    My hard drive recently crasched. I use my iPod as back up. But now, I cannot find out how to copy the files back to the new hard drive on the computor. The iTune program only advices me to delite all information on the iPod to substitute it with the much lesser library on the computer. Obviously it must be possible to copy in both directions. But how do I do it?

    Thank you for your advise. That's one thing I learned. Not to assume that people know about backing up. I would have recommended it a long time ago. That's one thing that Apple or other computer stores should offer, external backup package or combo to make people aware of it's importance. Just a thought!
    Anyway, I do have a little background in troubleshooting. I thought it's a Mac security issue. I would want to try other options before deciding in opening the computer and taking out thehard drive as it is not as convenient as opening a PC.
    Apple does make external hard drives available at the Apple Store, however it is an end users responsibility to backup their system. Apple does offer classes to new users and their 1:1 service too, whether the subject of backing up is mentioned in these I do not know. The subject of backing up as a class "subject" may be something you may want to mention to Apple a www.apple.com/feedback.
    Many users go through the same pain as your friend, myself included! However once you go through the pain, it is a lesson seldom forgotten.
    Many experiences users on these forums have redundant methods of backing up. When it comes to backing up redundancy is wise, why because a backup can (and often do) fail too. For example, in addition to using Time Machine, I also have another EHD that I use to create a bootable clone of my computer. That way if both my internal drive and TM back fails the worst that will happen is I have a system I can boot from that is a day or so old and continue running until I get all my systems fixed.

  • How to transfer files from ipad to usb flash drive

    Hi Everyone,
    How can I transfer docs stored on my Ipad to a USB flash drive or external hard drive? Thank you.
    Donnie

    You can't do it directly, you will need to copy them to a computer first e.g. via the file sharing section at the bottom of the device's apps tab when connected to iTunes, via wifi, email, dropbox etc., whatever the app that you using supports. The iPad's camera connection kit which has a USB connection only supports the copying of photos and videos to the Photos app, you can't copy any content off the iPad with it.

    I had an older version of Firefix, then crashed. I've not been able to open it since. When I do, I get an error, and the error report was sent.
    I downloaded new versions, 12.0 and 14.0, but fail with the above message when I attempt to launch the setup.

    Do a clean (re)install and delete the Firefox program folder (C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\).

    Uninstall your current Firefox version, if possible.
    *Do NOT remove personal data when you uninstall your current Firefox version, because all profile folders will be removed and you will also lose your personal data like bookmarks and passwords from profiles of other Firefox versions.
    Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    *It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.

  • How to open files (NOT copy) from external hard drive

    Hello there,
    I have a Western Digital My Passport external harddrive. I bought the hard drive so I could take stuff like my music off my laptop harddrive, free up space and make it run smoother.
    Problem is, every time I select a music file on the ex harddrive to play in itunes, the file is copied to the laptop harddrive! Completely defeats the purpose.
    Does anyone know how to stop my laptop from copying music files and just get it to play files from the external hard drive? I have looked and looked but to no avail - this is my first Mac and it is the one issue that really bugs me.
    Any help will be much appreciated!
    N.B. it doesn't seem to do this with other file types (documents etc.) just music files/files supported by itunes.

    How are you selecting the music files? I have my entire music library on an external drive. If you go to preferences in iTunes, their is an option to select where your music library resides. I think it is under advance but I'm not sure since I don't have access to my mac.

  • SQL 2005 mirroring : Abrupt Automatic failover

    hi All, 
    We have a SQL 2005 SP4 mirroring  setup of 15 DBs with Principal(P), Mirror(M) & Witness (W).
    We have now seen abrupt DB failovers for some of the databases (yest it was 4 out of 15) from P to M.
    Errors were seen on Witness server as follows for all Dbs that failed over:
    Date 07/01/2015 11:07:48 PM
    Log SQL Server (Current - 08/01/2015 12:00:00 AM)
    Source spid19s
    Message
    The mirroring connection to "TCP://<server.domain.com>:5022" has timed out for database "<DBName>" after 10 seconds without a response.  Check the service and network connections.
    Actions taken:
    1. Network and Firewall team reverted that no error detected and no network traffic between the witness server and db server during the db auto failover period.
    2. On the system side, we have verified that no hardware error found on either VM or SAN storage, and no Symantec SQL backup jobs running nor anti virus scanning during the db auto failover period too.
    3. We did see some high amount of IO activity on P server around failover time. Some IO errors similar to below were seen, however point to note is these errors were not only for the DBs that failed over, but for others including TEMPDB:
    Date 07/01/2015 11:07:38 PM
    Log SQL Server (Current - 08/01/2015 4:06:00 AM)
    Source spid2s
    Message
    SQL Server has encountered 1 occurrence(s) of I/O requests taking longer than 15 seconds to complete on file [R:\SQLDATA\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Data\<DBName>.mdf] in database [DBName] (5).  The OS file handle is 0x000000000000095C.  The offset of the
    latest long I/O is: 0x0000054ff22000
    Questions:
    1. I assumed that the Witness keeps polling P & M on DB mirroring endpoints (in our case 5022) to check that the DBs are online, but Network team says there is no activity on that port, is my understanding correct?
    2. Is there any other reason for DB failover ?

    This is common with Mirroring server it is not as resilient to changes as log shipping. Are you aware about
    below fact although not directly related to your question
    If you plan to use high-safety mode with automatic failover, the normal load on each failover partner should be less than 50 percent of the CPU. If your work load overloads the CPU, a failover partner might be unable to ping the other server instances in
    the mirroring session. This causes a unnecessary failover. If you cannot keep the CPU usage under 50 percent, we recommend that you use either high-safety mode without automatic failover or high-performance mode.
    Now to your problem
    The mirroring connection to "TCP://<server.domain.com>:5022" has timed out for database "<DBName>" after 10 seconds without a response.  Check the service and network connections.
    I would say there was network dip for more than 10 seconds and since default failover time is 10 seconds and for few databases witness thought principal cannot be reached it initiated failover.
    Network team is incorrect to say there was no dip (its common with NOC team not to take responsibility)

  • ODI 10.1.3.4.0 - Topology Manager Connection Error using SQL 2005 SP3

    Hello All,
    I am using the ODI repository in SQL 2005 SP3. I could create my master repository using the following parameters:
    driver: com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
    URL:jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://server_name:1433;SelectMethod=direct;DataBaseName=ODI
    I needed to copy to the drivers directory all files of SQL 2000 (msutil.jar, msbase.jar,mssqlserver.jar) and SQL 2005 (sqljdbc.jar). I am using the JRE 1.4.2 and JDBC 2005 1.2 (http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms378422(SQL.90).aspx)
    But when I try to connect in Topology Manager to create the work repository appears the following error:
    using this driver string: com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver
    java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC] Can't start a cloned connection while in manual transaction mode.
    using this driver string: com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
    java.sql.SQLException: No suitable driver
    Does Somebody know what is happening?
    Regards,
    Wallace Galvao
    Sao Paulo - Brazil

    Hi,
    If you plan on using the SQL Server 2005 drivers then you only need the 1.2 sqljdbc.jar file in the drivers directory.
    The connection details for SQL Server 2005 should be like the following.
    com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
    jdbc:sqlserver://<sqls machine>:1433;databaseName=<db name>;integratedSecurity=false
    I would try just with just the correct driver in place, remove the others, restart any ODI components and then make sure the connection information is correct like above.
    Cheers

  • All of a sudden I cant place pdf files in a pagemaker document!

    it seem that this happend after I installed/updated acrobat? or after I installed CS4?  I get an error message that I never received before; "do not know how place this file", then I can select file type. I can place pdf files in the same document that hasnt been saved in the new acrobat version, anyone knows what I shall do?

    Thank you!!
    I produce stuff in Pagemaker and CS4 at the same time until I trust CS4 fully, there are a few things cs4 doesnt do that pagemaker does,  I use a "tagged" import that specifies style and images and that works in pagemaker but not in indesign!

  • How Do I Copy File Names & Folders From A Hard Drive To A Word Document?

    Hi Gang:
    This may sound silly but I am having a herd time with the following - seemingly simple task.
    I have data DVD-Rs with audio files organized into folders. Each folder contains audio files related to the folder name.
    I would like to copy the file names and folders from a DVD-R and paste them into a MS Word file. I am just looking to get a listing of files as they appear on the DVD-Rs in their folders.
    The problem is that when I copy and paste, the order changes (seemingly randomly) and the file names are no longer under the folder names. In fact, the whole thing looks to be really random.
    Anybody know how to copy file/folder names from a hard drive or DVD-R to a word document and retain the file/folder structure?
    Thanks!
    LAHD

    There is an even easier method with no Terminal magic required. In the Finder, select all the files you want the names of, press Command-C, switch to Word and press Command-V. Poof, your done.
    If you view the DVD in List VIew, you can expand the folders you want the files for, then select all the files (and their folders if you want them too) and then do the Copy/Paste thing.

  • SQL 2005 Setup on Win7 Ultimate [No SQL Services after installation]

    Win 7 Ultimate (64bit)
    4GB RAM
    New installation of Win 7 Ultimate
    Re-installation of SQL: Originally SQLExpress which didn't work out so I went to SQL2005 Standard Edition SP1 & updated to SQL2005 SP4.  I installed Visual Studio 2005 during the SP1 installation.  Actually, I installed all SQL2005 components
    'just in case'.
    I had attempted, unsuccessfully, to install SQLExpress so I uninstalled all SQLExpress components via Programs and Features, removed all SQL related directories and subdirectories in c:\Program Files (x86)\SQL.... and started the DVD setup.exe installation. 
    [I didn't do a RegEdit32!] 
    Uniquely, During installation of SQL2005, I wasn't asked for the SQL Product Key nor whether the mode was Windows or Mixed (I want Mixed Mode).  Now, after rebooting with all MS updates (Win7 and SQL2005) I don't see any SQL services even though the
    Microsoft SQL Server 2005, Backward compatibility and Books etc are listed as installed under Programs and Features.  IIRC, I saw a message regarding ASP.Net for 64bit being installed but some issues on the 32bit not being installed (warning message).
    So, how do I get the necessary SQL 2005 services installed and get SQL functional???  I'm open to a complete re-install if necessary.  My original DVD is SQL2005 Standard Edition SP1, fyi.
    THANKS!

    1) SQL Server Configuration Manager?  Yes, I do under "Configuration Tools"  When selecting this and going into SQL Server 2005 Services I get "There are no items to show in this view".
    2) Exact SQL Server edition? From Help of SQL Server Configuration Manager: 2005.090.5000.00
    3) Compact Edition installed?  I used the SQL2005 SP1 Standard Edition DVD and then selected setup.exe.  If you'd like for me to uninstall SQL and reinstall I will (including removing appropriate SQL Server directories).  I'd remove the RegEdit
    entries but I don't know where/what they are.  [[Note!: See #4 below where under Server Type I see "SQL Server Compact Edition  ... as well as Database Engine, Analysis Services, Reporting Services and Integration Services]
    4) ??: Since I can't get into SQL Server Management Studio.  I get "Cannot connect to XYZ02" "A network-related or instance specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL server.  The server was not found or was not accessible. 
    Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections.  (Provider: Named Pipes Provider, error:40- Could not open a connection to SQL server) (Microsoft SQL server, Error:2)"  [Note: XYZ02 is the name
    of the laptop and I used: Server Type: Database Engine; Server Name: XYZ02 (I had to enter as it wasn't listed); Authentication: Windows Authentication
    So, suggestions... looks like I DO have Compact Edition?  Thoughts?????
    Thanks
    BTW, I have another 64bit laptop (same mfr/model but with 8GB vs this 4GB under 64bit Win7 Ultimate) that runs SQL fine.  Been running SQL 2005 on it for 3-4+ years.
