Migrating databases from 32 bit SS 2000 to 64 bit SS 2005

  • I don't have any replication in my environment (luckily from the sounds of it), but I do remember in one of the upgrade Technet webcasts them mentioning that there was a particular order to upgrade your replication partners in. I also found this information in BOL that might be helpful for you:

    How to: Upgrade Replication Scripts (Replication Transact-SQL Programming)

  • Hey,

    One issue I came up against not long ago, was extended stored procedures based on C++, which were compiled using a 32-bit compiler and this had to be re-compiled, as customer still required the funcationality provided in the extended proc. Thereafter, extended proc. worked fine.

    As already suggested, test, test and test migration again.

    Good Luck,

  • I know, I already read this article. What I have done is recreating replication at SQL 2005 level. My issue is on merge replication because here I have some Rows Filters and Articles which I have added its manually. But I've got the above error.

    In Theory, theory and practice are the same...In practice, they are not.
  • I forgot to say that all of databases are on 80 compatibility level because my ERP client wants that.

    In Theory, theory and practice are the same...In practice, they are not.
  • Thx a ton!!Joe;)
