SQLServer 2008 Express Edition and Database Mail

All,
BOL says that "Database Mail is not available in SQL Server Express." is not supported.
Though, the express edition does not have the UI to configure database mail, I was able
to configure it by setting up a "Database Mail Account" and "Database Mail Profile". I
was also able successfully send an email with the sp_send_dbmail.
Is the BOL wrong or am I missing something?
ms-help://MS.SQLCC.v10/MS.SQLSVR.v10.en/s10de_4deptrbl/html/14cbf88f-d9d1-41a5-994e-532e2973ac9e.htm
Thanks,
MS

So MS, can you help me with the steps to make it available?  I executed   dbo.sysmail_start_sp received an error indicating database mail xp must be enabled.  Successfully ran.
sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1;
GO
RECONFIGURE;
GO
sp_configure 'Database Mail XPs', 1;
GO
RECONFIGURE
GO
then the stored procedure was successful. Restarted SQL express and still I don't see in SSMS, under management  'database Mail' therefore can't setup an account and profile . (NO database WIZARD).
Can you please tell me what I am missing?
Thanks, Pat_c

  • SQL Server Agent Job And Database Mail - Error formatting query, probably invalid paramters

    We have a stored procedure that we are trying to call with a SQL Server Agent Job. The stored procedure calls Database Mail. This is SQL 2008. The execute task is simply:
    USE [Production]
    GO
    EXEC [dbo].[JOB_EMAIL_SCHEDULED_REPORTS]
    GO
    When the job runs, it is erroring out immediately, with the error:
    Execute as user: NT AUTHORITY\NETWORK SERVICE. Error formatting query, probably invalid paramters [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 22050). The step failed.
    When we go into SQL Server Manager and just execute the SQL query, it works though. Something within the SQL Server Agent job,  and Database Mail is causing problems. Any ideas? Thanks.

    Justin,
    If you use SSMS then the procedure is executed under a different user when compared to running using a SQL Server Agent Job.
    Isolate the problem by running a SQL Server agent job that sends a mail. Also check if the NT Authority\Network Service account is
    in good standing. Look at the below thread with a similar problem that had an expired account.

  • Oracle Database Express Edition 11g Database; Tables bigger than 11 GB

    Dear all,

    If yes, it would be nice to get the correct development.
    Thanks in advance.

    As the table is not that big, one could copy the table, delete selected rows large enough, and export from that table copy instead.

  • Upgrading from SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition [ENU] to SQL Server 2008 Express Edition OR HIGHER for Microsoft Security Compliance Manager

    I have downloaded the MS Security Compliance Manager, which is in two parts:  MS SQL Server 2008 Express Edition & the SCM. The install instructions state the the server needs to be install before the SCM.  So as the install continues I get
    an error message, which cancels the installation.  So, I am trying to install SQL 2008 EE separate from SCM.  My question is: 
    Can I upgrade from my current SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition [ENU]
    directly to SQL Server 2008 Express Edition (or higher)?

    So as the install continues I get an error message, which cancels the installation. 
    And which error message did you got?
    SQL Server Compact Edition is something different then SQL Server Express (or Standard) Edition, you can't upgrade it as you asked for,.

  • Problems with Registration Key, VB 2008 Express Edition

    VB 2008 Express Edition. Installed on a pc using Windows 8. Problem with registration key.
    I was given an executable program by a colleague that had already been used and I am currently making changes to the program to fit the specifics of my project. Thirty days after I started analyzing/manipulating the code, when I tried to open the program
    a pop-up came up that stated that I needed a registration key. When I click on the link on the pop-up to try to obtain a registration key, the link takes me to a page that states "the page doesn't exist" (http://www.microsoft.com/404.htm).
    That said, instead of trying to obtain a registration key I then downloaded a new version of VB 2008 Express Edition from Microsoft DreamSpark. I successfully downloaded the program. The website stated that if I ever needed a registration key, I could obtain
    it from within the program. However, even still, when I try to open up VB, the pop-up still comes up that states that I need a registration key.
    Does anyone have any suggestions or quick fixes? Thanks

    I'm not sure that registration keys are available any more for the 2008 version. There have been three versions since then (2010, 2012 and 2013) and  a fourth (2015) is currently being previewed.
    Is there any reason why you can use the current version? Visual Studio 2013 Community Edition is free for individuals and small companies.

  • SQL Server 2008 R2 Express Edition and Full Text Indexing

    Hello, we have recently upgraded our web front end server from SQL Server 2005 (Standard Edition) to SQL Server 2008 R2 Express Edition (in conjuction with upgrading our main production servers to SQL 2008 R2 Standard). We have 12 Databases on our production
    SQL Server that are replicated to our web frontend server to the SQL Express instance. One of these databases has a FULL TEXT INDEX. The production database is running the Adobe iFilter version 9 64Bit. The FULL TEXT CATALOG has been created and populated
    and performs searches as intended. However, upon replication, when using the search option on our web page based on that PDF iFilter, it no longer works. After examining the properties of the FULL TEXT CATALOG, we note that the Catalog size on the subscriber
    end is 0MB in size (whereas it is 3MB on the Publication side). Also the Unique Key Count on the subscriber side is '1' whereas on the publisher side it is 30,000+. After examining the FT Indexing logs on the subscriber side shows an error: "Warning: No appropriate
    filter was found during full-text index population" On the subscriber side which is running Windows Server 2003 and SQL Server 2008 R2 Express Edition, Adobe Reader 10.1.1 is installed (all 32Bit) with the Adobe iFilter AcroRdIF.dll. When running the SELECT
    * from sys.fulltext_document_types T-Sql statement, the list returned shows the PDF filter to be installed and shows the correct path. Under the System Environment Variables, that path has also been installed (from previous recommendations in researching this
    problem). After numerous reboots, service restarts and re-attempts to get the FT Daemon to crawl - no success. Can anyone please help with this problem? Is there something I am missing? In an attempt to work around this problem thinking there might be a version
    conflict between the 64Bit version on the publisher and the 32Bit version on the subscriber, I disabled the replication of the FULL TEXT CATALOG and tried to create a new catalog on the subscriber with the same results. Thank you for your answers in advance
    - Fustrated! Sorry, somehow this got posted originally under Server Design

    Hello Jeff hope your still out there.  I wrote this question 2 years ago and upgraded to SQL Express with advanced services.  Full Text replication worked until last week.  We are operating in a virtual environment.  My publisher box
    is a Windows Server 2008 R2 (64bit) with SQL Server Standard Edition.  My Web front subscriber is a Windows 2003 R2 (32bit) Server with SQL Server 2008 R2 Express SP1 with Advanced Services. Now the exact same thing is happening after 2+ years. 
    We are looking for possible updates that might have broken this but I am stretching that.  Any clues please?  32bit vs. 64bit?

    Catch-22.. The other way of doing this easily is XQuery, but since in 10.2.0.1.0 XQuery had a dependancy on Java, and Java is not supported in XE we are back to square 1.
    The only other ways are (a) string manipulation - which I refuse to discuss, or (b) DOM-APIOr Oracle Support providing the person with the relevant "alter session set events ..." statement to switch on that feature in 10.2.0.1 (as shown in the SQL and PL/SQL forum thread). Obviously as it's from Oracle support, it can't be supplied on the forums.
