PC Hardware requirements for SQL 2005 Standard Edition

Hello,

I'm wondering if it is possible to install SQL2005 standard edition on a standard dual core pc with Win XP Pro SP2 OS.

Kindly advice.

Regards

Andy

That should be fine.

As a first part of the install process, a program will execute that will verify that the hardware and software environment will support SQL Server 2005.

To check the requirements, see this resource:

SQL Server 2005 Installation Requirements (Hardware/Software)

Pb with login name's under sql server 2000

Hello,
I am searching a way to use login names like
SQLAccessGroup{xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx}
in sql scripts.
Standard sp like sp-changedbowner refuses them.
Thanks for help.
CSHi CS,
As for the "SQLAccessGroup{xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx}" you
mentioned, do you mean the SID of a certain sqlserver or windows login name
in the SQL Server instance?
If this is the case, I think you need to translate sid into its
corresponding loginname (sql login name or windows account/group name)
first before calling the sp_changedbowner stored procedure. This is because
the "login" parameter of the sq_changedbowner SP must be an already
existing Microsoft SQL Server login or Microsoft Windows NT user(rather
than the raw SID).
#sp_changedbowner

rue
If you will only get the SID first in your scenario, I'd suggest you
consider the following options to translate the SID to login name and pass
the login name to the sp_changedbowner:
1. use the "SUSER_SNAME" T-SQL function to translate login sid into login
name
#SUSER_SNAME (Transact-SQL)
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms174427.aspx
2. Since all the logins of a SQL server instance is stored in the
syslogins system view, you can manually query it and find the loginname
associated with the certain SID (not quite recommended )
for example:
=======================
declare @.sid nvarchar(100)
set @.sid =
suser_sname(0x0105000000000005150000005D
28F57FD53AD8354354E02A18B20200)
EXEC sp_changedbowner @.sid
=======================
In addition, the format of the SID stored in SQL Server is abit different
from the {xxxxxxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxxxxxxxxxx}, you'll need to do some
modification before passing them into the certain translate function.
Hope this helps.

our dba& complains that it is a non generic way to name login.
Whe have discovered thta it is normal that changedbowner fails because this
lotgin is an ad group and not an AD user.
Thanks anyway.CS

Password does not meet Windows policy requirements 2005

I have been given the task to see if our software will work against SQL
Server 2005:-
XP Pro installed on a Virtual PC
SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition Installed
Mixed mode Security
Check policy set to off
Installation of 2005 was successful and no error reported in the logs.
Now the fun started hen attempting to install our software, using the SA
account (we have also created additional SQL logins too but still have the
same problem) it gets as far as creating the various databases but when
attempting to create tables it receives the following error:-
Create Table failed
SQL-DMO error: 15118 [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]
Password validation failed.The password does not meet Windows policy
requirements because it is not complex enough
The password we are using meets the criteria for creating passwords and I
have also checked Windows Security Settings and the Passord Policy 'Password
must meet complexity requirements' is disabled
If you need any additional information please let me know.
Many thanks
PaulHi Paul,
make sure that there is o domain policy activated which forces secure
passwords.
HTH, jens Suessmeyer.|||Jens,
