SQL Server 2005 and 2000 on the same box

  • Hi masters,

    i have SQL Server 2005 developer edition and SQl Server 2000 developer edition on the same box.

    I installed the 2 softwares today

    I'm having problems of windows authentication to the SQL Server 2000.

    I try to connect to SQL Server trought management studio, but i receive this message:

    ......... Error 40 could not open a connection to SQl Server (microsoft sql server ,error:2)

    Can someone help please?

    thank you,

    Pedro

  • Make sure SQL SERVER is up and the instance you try to connect is running.

    Your system Firewall should not block SQL Server port.

    Go to Computer Management >> Service and Application >> SQL Server 2005 Configuration >> Network Configuration

    Enable TCP/IP protocol. Make sure that SQL SERVER port is by Default 1433..

  • SQL Server 2000 is now resolved....

    I installed SP4 on the box and it fixed.

    (i had no SP)

    But i still have a big problem.

    I want to put the SQL Server 2005 services with a domain account, but when i try i receive an error.

    My SQL server 2000 services are using that domain account with no problem....

    can you help please?

    thank you

  • Error message , error message from SQL server errorlog , please check whether all folder permissions granted for domain account and its added to MSSQLagentuser group and log on as a service , If memory greater than 8GB lock pages in memory also in security policy settings
