I installed mssql support to my cpanel server as you mentioned on cpanel forums. When i request some data it gets charecters in error and writes them to mysql server.
I've installed this on previous server and didnt have this kind of problem.
I set same configs with old server (mysql.php,etc.) but it's not working.
we are still having same problem on mssql, there are difference with 2 dedicated but we did not solved it yet. for example, you can see on first screenshot, there is some character errors while it getting datas on mssql server and we think that, it will cause problem and not showing totals but we did not have any problem on old server without characters problems

asp.net 2.0 + mssql server 2005 + ajaxtoolkit support
I need windows hosting with asp.net 2.0 + mssql server 2005 + ajaxtoolkit support for a website project that is being developed. It can probably be launched on shared hosting, but I would prefer at least a VPS. With any success this site would eventually need to be hosted on a dedicated server.
I have been offered a 1U Dell server for free with Windows Server 2003, Dual Xenon Processors, 2 GB ram and 2 x 80gb hard drives. It would probably serve the site well for a long time, but I would need to set it up (or get it setup $) for the above requirements and get it colocated somewhere. BTW, I'm not too familiar with Windows hosting.
To launch the site, I don't really want to spend more than $100 per month. And I'd prefer to stay in the $50 per month range if possible.
Open to any and all suggestions, comments, questions at this point? I've searched and see a lot of suggestions for shared hosting, but I'd really like your opinions on colocating the dedicated server.
I am planning on starting a new project and am curious as to if there would be an issue with hosting the websites (IIS) and the MSSQL Databases on the same server?
Basically housing all of the websites and SQL DBs on the same server?
Is this going to cause major problems? I originally thought that I should house the DBs separate but am starting to think that we can house the web and dbs on the same machine but I wanted to get some advice from other that know more about Windows then I.
what level of hardware/hosting plan I need for one of my clients.
Current stats: ~65 ecommerce orders per week ~5000 unique visitors per day
Requirements: Win2k3 ASP.NET 3.5 MSSQL 2005
My first recommendation to them was RackSpace due their good reputation, but they were not able to pay for the plan suggested to them by RackSpace.
My other question is what type of plan do you guys recommend based on the above stats/requirements (managed/VPS/dedicated/etc.)? VPS is what came to mind for me since we'll probably end up using this setup for more than one website/domain and since they are so price sensitive.
I'm fairly comfortable setting up and administering Win2k3 and MSSQL. I'm sure that plays into the choices a little.
I know there is probably some information I have left out that would help you guys make a recommendation. Please just let me know what else would help.
I have around 5 servers each running an instance of MSSQL. Four of them hold small databases (largest is 4GB) and all fairly active (I was monitoring the largest for around a minute with SQL Profiler and it used about 2000 rows).
The largest server is used as a central database for logs for the above four servers.
This server runs across 4 * 15k drives in RAID10, but the RAM is a huge bottleneck (64bit OS, 32bit MSSQL). I also watched this server for around a minute in SQL Profiler and saw around 2000 rows being used again.
Now I'm looking to centralise everything into a single instance of MSSQL. I can't afford for MSSQL to be slow, but it will be housing 7 databases (3 'main' databases, 3 log databases, 1 misc. database).
I'm just wondering if anyone could hazard a guess if this would be sufficient? I've tried to explain things the best I can. I guess to summarise would be that there are a lot of read and writes that would happen if I conbined all the databases into a single instance.
I see that SQL Server Express said to be free but does that mean its free for commercial use? personal use? development use? I don't see any information.
Also I read on this board that some hosts offer this. Are they just using the free free version or something else?
I am looking for a company to host a relatively simple data driven ASP.Net 3.5 website and a MS SQL 2005 database. There will be minimal traffic on the website as it is for a small business and also minimal media will need to be hosted. Features like Ajax should of course also be enabled.
Data security is of importance although as the developer of the site, I would like the flexibility of being able to configure the database (run scripts) through management studio remotely.
Email features will also eventually be required.
The company should ideally be based in the UK and decent support id (and when) the need arises.
Any recommendations? What sort of price range should I be looking at?
Most companies seem to support MySQL- but this is not flexible.
I'm building the infrastructure for a live event site.
I have specced 8 app servers but I'm still unsure with regards to MSSQL.
The site functionality makes a single write to the DB with no reads. A simple option would be to have a MSSQL DB instance on each of the APP servers and simply collate the information after the event.
I've also been looking at the mirroring function of 2005 as it would mean we could get away with two MSSQL servers instead of 8.
Has anyone used MSSQL 2005 Mirroring? Is it easy to setup and maintain? Any caveats?
How can my user use MSSQL management studio to restore the DB? Whenever my user try to browse for the db file, he can't browse to his own web folder due to permission error.
At the moment our MSSQL defaults to backing up db's to C:/Windows/Temp. On some occasions it backups up to the sql backup folder. Any ideas where these settings exist in MSSQL Management Studio?
Does anyone know any shared hosting or semi-private VPS hosting for a site with large MS SQL2005 DB? Our DB is currently 1GB already but could get up to 5-10GB when all is said and done. The site is a B2B networking platform with many users, company profiles, products, etc.
i am finding a MSSQL 2005 server for one of my application for my client.
Actually, it is a small business program. It will not have a heavy load on the server.
Do any hosting packages company for that with reasonable price? It is not a website. It is a C# software application. So the port will not be 21 or some web port.
I would like a VPS account, but the problem for me is that my site is asp.net and has a MS SQL 2005 database. From the research I have done so far, it appears that only the shared hosting solutions provide a MS SQL database, and if I go with a VPS solution I have to own and install my own copy of MS SQL. Is this correct? Does anybody know of a VPS solution that would also provide me with a MS SQL 2005 database as well? I can't afford to pay $5000+ for MS SQL 2005 Standard Ed.
I saw the suggestions to search around the site for good hosts, but it's really challenging to sort out the advertising vs real life experience and personal reviews.
Can anyone give some suggestions for a shared hosting service that can handle my needs for: .Net 2.0 MSsql allowing remote databse connect AJAX about 12 domains ability to allow several domains to work off the same database prefer telephone tech support so I can call when things go down. Tried Godaddy, but they don't allow remote connection to a database (good luck managing large projects)
Tried EasyCGI but not flexible enough
Tried Seekdotnet but even low traffic sites go down, they jumble which domains are connected to your ftp access (one time I had access to another clients html data), and take weeks or up to 'never' to fix hosting errors (fairly sure the errors were not due to the application.)
Heard about IXwebhosting but people don't seem to fond of them hear.
I'd really appreciate some honest input on reliable, reasonable, well supported windows hosting.
I am currently using phpdotnuke for a site, and have a forum linked to it supplied by activemodules.com. I would like to move to a non-cms site and something like vbulletin, so want to convert the forum db from MSSQL to MySQL - and hopefully keep all the posts and login data!
As a complete novice to that process, is there any pointers out there in terms of reading material, non-command line software etc I can use? Has anyone done this conversion, and what are the dangers?
I have MSSQL 2005 running on the W2k server, can i install SQL Server Express on top of it w/o causing any disruption to other services including MSSQL.
I'm undecided between an upcoming dedicated hosting server and am moving between Softlayer and ThePlanet. My decision partly comes down to support.
I've read many reviews on WHT about both companies, but not necessarily comparing them from people who have experienced both.
So my questions (keep in mind this is my first dedicated. I have used VPS in the past with good support) Which offers MORE support (not better) - I'm curious which company might consider my support questions as "part of the default service package" or "need additional service plan for that" More detailed support - my usual experience with support is support staff assume you already know a high level so it may take going forward and back 5 times via email to get a full answer Overall support satisfaction - any other comments
I need a hosting with .net 3.5 support. Prefer 1G MS sql server space. traffic 10-20G is ok. need a stable hosting with good & capable technical support.
anyone can recommend one? I plan to use discountasp, but their sql is too small, 500M only.
We had a Coldfusion site running MySQL without issues. We are in the process of doing some upgrades and as part of that we recently switched over to MSSQL 5. Ever since that happened, we will have random page hangs. This usually happens on pages with more complex queries, but it is very random. There is no timeout error on the server, no page cannot be displayed errors, no errors of any kind, the page will just hang. We have been monitoring our server resource monitor and we can see when the page 'gives up', we will go from 100% CPU down to almost 0, and then the page simply never recovers. Does anyone have any idea what might be going on? When there is no error message of sorts it makes it very problematic to troubleshoot.
I've been paying $160 a month for a dedicated server that runs my web application and my mssql 2008 database.
Due to the economic times, I've been searching for a cheaper alternative... This gets me thinking... Wouldn't this be a good business plan for VPS companies?
Include 4-5 databases on a extreme, high-performance MSSQL server for all windows vps.
I know there are current setups like this, but no host really emphasizes the power of their mssql server. If they show how their db server is extremely fast, customers would be less likely to try and run their own express version on the vps. Thereby decreasing ram/cpu load on the vps, and increasing the overall efficiency of the dedicated server running the vps'.
Are there any hosts that currently market like this? If not, why don't you?
I'm currently with HostNexus and I've been told by their tech support that I need to submit a ticket every time I want one of my databases backed up. This is not going to work anymore and I need to find a new host that will allow me to create and FTP the backups to my home server.
My requirements: At least 1GB disk space Bandwidth won't matter as much right now Allow me to have at least 15-20 domains on my account, I run a few different sites Allow me to create a decent number of MSSQL databases (more than 5) No MSSQL size quote (just let it subtract from the overall disk space) A few MySQL databases Both ASP.NET 2.0 and PHP 5
I need to be able to run that MSSQL backup via a Scheduled Task or something
I pay $20 but could go up to $30 if it has all the features + more space. DiscountASP.net seemed to have it all but I could only host one site per account and that just won't work. I did LOVE the thought of having a web service I could use to back up the DBs,
