SQL Server 2000 and Windows Server 2003

df
I have several database on a Windows Server 2003. I re-registered this SQL
server, which is local, and after that I cannot see any of the databases in
the Enterprise Manager. The databases still work, since my applications work
fine. I have no clue how can I make these databases visible in Enterprise
Manager. I tried registering this SQL Server in Enterprise Manager under
Windows accounts and SQL Server accounts. Nothing works.
Can anybody help?

I have no idea, but my guess is that you registered as a user that
does not have permission to these databases, and not as a user
that has admin priviledges.

The account you use in Enterprse Manager probably has no admin
permission. Did you try "sa"? If your SQL Server doesn't allow SQL
login you need to RTFM and enable it.

Tried "sa", the same story. Tried Windows auth., no diff.
Only default databases are visible.

When I looked in the Windows services I see another instance of SQL Server
running. There are the following services:
MSSQL$DELLSRV
MSSqlSever

I have no clue how this could happen. But the question is how can I get to
the old instance???

Depends on the network interface you configured for the two instances.
The default share memory is exclusive and can't be used by both (and
you may not be able to know who uses it exactly), so I suggest you to
enable named pipe for them, and re-register them in Enterprise Manager
by the named pipe path you set.

So you have two instances of SQL Server on your machine, and you have
connected to the one that does not have any databases.

To connect to the default instance, specify "." or servername. To
connect to the other, specify ".\DELLSRV" or "servername\DELLSRV".

You might also want to check the Client Network Utility whether you
have any aliases.

Thanks,

I have fixed the problem. I suspect that when I installed service packs, it
created the second instance, since I did not do it explicitly. I shut it
down, and registered the original one.

I don't know which of the instances was the unexpected one, but it
could be an MSDE instance that slipped in with some 3rd party software.
DELLSRV hints a certain vendor.

DELLSRV is my server name, I named it this way, no mistery here, it's DELL
server.
