  1. Afterwards the SQL Server installation program will commence the installation procedure. When it is finished, a 'setup complete' caption will appear on the screen. Installing the Service Pack 2 for the SQL Server is your next stage. Download the 49-megabyte SQL2KSP2.exe file from Microsoft's website and run it on your server.
  2. Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Reporting Services Evaluation Edition. Reporting Services is a comprehensive, server-based solution that can author, manage, and deliver both paper-oriented and interactive, Web–based reports.

Such as Windows XP/Windows 7. To successfully install the Developer Edition of SQL Server 2000 on Windows 7, you need to launch Setup via the command line. Msetup.exe -c -q. This file is located in 'D: x86 setup' assuming you DVD/CD is on a D Drive. When you run the above command, you will be presented with a find file dialogue box.

I have to admit it, that when I first heard about this I was HIGHLY skeptical, but sure enough it actually works.

Enterprise Manager looking at the infamous PUBS database

Although I have gotten SQL Server 4.21a & 6.5 running on Windows 10 (The core from 6.0 works, but it’s pre-release COM objects for the Enterprise manager don’t like Windows 10) There were two stumbling blocks I never could get around. The first one turned out to be something trivial, which is SQL 4.21 would never listen on TCPIP.

It turns out that this actually was a simple fix.

17/09/21 19:40:26.12 server on top of default character set:
17/09/21 19:40:26.12 server ‘cp850’ (ID = 2)

The DLL for TCP/IP is SSMSSOCN.DLL, and it turns out it really wants to be located in the C:WindowsSysWOW64 directory (aka the system path for libraries). Well that’s all great now, isn’t it?

Not really.

ODBC Hell

The ODBC drivers in Windows 10 finally made a magical cut off point that they will not talk to any old and ‘vulnerable’ SQL Servers. This means that the oldest version you can connect to is SQL Server 2000. Even SQL 7 didn’t make the cut. Trying to connect to a SQL 7 server, you just get:

Attempting connection
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Cannot generate SSPI context

And then I saw this post, about using FreeTDS to connect to MSSQL. So I followed their instructions, and got nowhere fast just lots of crashing. Turns out the bloodshed environment’s included G++ just fails 100% of the time for me, with a nice crash. So I pointed it to the TDM GCC install, and then had to link the DLL manually and… nothing. No configuration point. In a fit of rage, I took the exist msvc project, opened it in Visual Studio 2015, and built it, except for one issue…

odbccp32.lib(dllload.obj) : error LNK2019: unresolved external symbol __vsnwprintf_s referenced in function _StringCchPrintfW

Seriously, it turns out that 2015 can’t just link to ODBC, that the libc thing that gave me SDL grief is deeply entrenched all over the place. So in this case you need to link against legacy_stdio_definitions.lib. Fantastic.

I get my DLL, and yes, it’s a Windows 32bit ODBC driver!

And yeah, lots of failure.

A red-herring was seeing this in the trace:

net.c:741:Sending packet
0000 01 01 00 2b 00 00 00 00-53 45 4c 45 43 54 20 43 |…+…. SELECT C|
0010 6f 6e 66 69 67 2c 20 6e-56 61 6c 75 65 20 46 52 |onfig, n Value FR|
0020 4f 4d 20 4d 53 79 73 43-6f 6e 66 |OM MSysC onf|

So I was thinking that SQL 4.21 & 6.5 are just too old to have this weird table, and as mentioned over here people would just create it, to get Access to shut up, and get on with their lives.

So, I put in some SQL

CREATE TABLE MSysConf(CREATE TABLE MSysConf(Config int NOT NULL,chValue char(255) NULL,nValue int NULL,Comments char(255) NULL)
GO
INSERT INTO MSysConf(Config,nValue,Comments)VALUES(101,1,’Prevent storage of the logon ID and password in linked tables.’)
GO

And yes, it creates the table, Access get’s it’s result then obviously doesn’t like it and up and dies. Maybe I can burn more cycles on it later, or break down and ask.

***UPDATE As a follow up, check out Loading the MS SQL 6.5 drivers on Windows 10, for enabling ODBC access on newer versions of Windows.

SQL Server 2000 (Dev) on Windows 10

And then I saw this epic thread, Windows 10 & My SQL Server 2000 Personal.

I managed to install following these steps:

Extract SP4
Copy ..SP4x86othersqlredis.exe to ..originalinstallpathx86other
(this avoid mdac insall freezing)
Create this folder structure (any place):
Microsoft SQL Server80ToolsBinn
Microsoft SQL ServerMSSQLBinn
Find out sqlunirl.dll on SP4 path and copy to Binn folder above
Copy dll files on ..SP4x86setup to Microsoft SQL ServerMSSQLBinn (folder above)
Copy folder structure (created on step 3) to C:Program Files (x86)
Give full access to user logged to **Microsoft SQL Server** folder
Change install compatiblity ..originalinstallpathx86setupsetupsql.exe
XP SP2
Run as administrator

**UPDATE

Newer versions of Windows 10 don’t include the old Visual C++ runtime, and the install will fail. Just copy the DLL’s into the syswow64 directory.

copy SP4x86systemmsvc?71.dll WindowsSysWOW64

This is tested on 17134.112 Version 1803 of Windows 10.

Could that really be it? For some reason I had a file held in the ComputerHKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESYSTEMControlSet001ControlSession ManagerPendingFileRenameOperations registry key, preventing me from installing, but zapping the key & stub program, and I was able to follow the steps (I’m still not sure if you copy the dlls into the MSSQLBinn or ToolsBInn directories, so I copied them to both!) and yes, it worked. I even could run the SP4 update.

And now I can use Access 2016 with this fine ancient database.

Access 2016 with SQL 2000 via ODBC

And here we are. As always there is no larger over reaching point to this. I did have to create a linked SQL login for myself to get ODBC to login properly but it’s somewhat simple, and honestly if that sounds bizarre to you, why are you even thinking about something like this?

For me, I’m interested in the DTS of all things. Sure the new ones are fancier, and all that jazz, but I paid good money back in the day for old MS dev tools, and being able to use them without any virtualization, aka running on bare iron is all the more appealing.

This article will explain what the Microsoft Desktop Engine is, as well as when and why touse it.

Introduction

Microsoft application developers have often been faced withthe decision of using a database engine they liked, versus an engine that wasaffordable to ship with the completed product. In many cases, the price pointwins, and the database standards are changed to accommodate the lower priceddatabase. However, with the release of the Microsoft SQL Server 2000 DesktopEngine (MSDE), a true transactional database server can be shipped royaltyfree. Think of MSDE as one more version of SQL Server. Now we have Developer, Enterprise, Standard and Desktop Engine versions. Each version has differentrequirements and features, but your database code can run unchanged on allversions.

Who Should Use MSDE?

The Microsoft Desktop Engine is targeted towards SQL Server developers,with low volume, or mobile applications. In the past, these applications mayhave been developed on MS Access or Dbase, because of the royalty free orinexpensive distribution rights offered. In some cases, a developer may havetwo versions of the same product. One full version developed on SQL Server,and another, light version on Access. Because all MSDE objects are the same astheir SQL Standard Server version counter parts, you can now have a lightversion, and full version, sharing identical database code.

Benefits

MSDE offers many of the same features as SQL Server,including support for Replication, DTS, OSQL and BCP. And of course, probablythe most compelling benefit of MSDE, royalty - free distribution.

Requirements and Restrictions

There are a number of requirements to be met in order for DesktopEngine to be a good fit for your application.

Sql server 2000 personal edition free download for windows xp service pack 3

1. Interface: The MSDE does not include any user interface. It works the same way as the other version SQL Server. Interaction with theDesktop Engine must be done through an application developed in Visual Studio,or some other similar development environment. There is no Access style GUI.

2. Management Tools: SQL Server tools are not shipped withthe MSDE. Enterprise Manager and Query Analyzer are not included. Any toolsmust be developed or obtained from a third party.

3. Redistribution: In order to redistribute MSDE, you must own aMicrosoft product that conveys the appropriate rights. This product listincludes SQL Server 2000, Visual Studio Dot Net, ASP.NET Web Matrix Tool,Microsoft Office XP Developer Edition or a subscription to MSDN. For acomplete list, see the Microsoft web page 'Rights to Use and RedistributeMSDE 2000' at http://www.microsoft.com/sql/msde/howtobuy/msderights.asp.

4. Operating Systems: Windows ME, XP, 98, 2000, 2003, and NTare valid operating systems to house the Desktop Engine. The complete list ofhardware and software requirements is located at http://www.microsoft.com/sql/msde/productinfo/sysreqs.asp.

5. Performance: MSDE is designed for low volumeapplications. There is a workload governor that will degrade performance ifthere are more than five concurrent batch workloads. As more workloads areadded, the system will continue to slow. For a complete discussion of theworkload governor, see http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/?url=/library/en-us/architec/8_ar_sa2_0ciq.asp?frame=true.

Downloads

Sql Server 2000 Personal Edition Free Download For Windows Xp

To get started with the Desktop Engine, download the databasefrom http://www.microsoft.com/sql/msde/downloads/download.asp. Next, download the service pack at http://www.microsoft.com/sql/downloads/2000/sp3.asp.

Installation

Unlike most Microsoft applications, you cannot double clickthe MSDE setup.exe file to install. Doing so will start the Windows Installer,but the install may error out and fail. Instead, change to a command prompt,and run setup with the appropriate switches. If you want MSDE to run in mixedmode, accepting both SQL and Windows security, then the switch 'SECURITYMODE=SQL'is required. When running in mixed mode, a blank sa password is not allowed,the switch 'SAPWD='AStrongPassword' must be included. Optionally, an instance name can be specified using INSTANCENAME='InstanceName.' If omitted, a default SQL instance is created. If MSDE should acceptconnections from other machines on the network, there is a switch for enablingor disabling network protocols. 'DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=n', with avalue of either 1 for No, or 0 for yes. Default data and target directoriescan be specified using DATADIR='data_folder_path' and TARGETDIR='executable_folder_path'. A typical install may look like:

Service Pack

After the database installation completes, apply theMSDE service pack. The pack should be installed from the command line like thedatabase engine. If network protocols were disabled on the database install,enable them now to allow the service pack to install. Use the same DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS switch. In our case, we areupgrading an existing MSDE installation, so the switch '/upgradesp sqlrun'is required. We will also specify a login and password to be used for upgrade with'UPGRADEUSER' and 'UPGRADEPWD.' In this example, thecomplete command will be:

Once control returns to thecommand prompt, reboot.
