Author SQL Server 2005 and MSDE
Serge Myrand

2006-03-17, 9:24 am

Hi,

In MS online books for SQL Server 2005 express it is written that (in my
words) there is a possibility of port number confusion when connecting
to the server if MSDE is installed and the MSDE sp3 is not installed.

How to know the last service pack installed?


When googling for MSDE sp3 it leads to SQL Server sp3a. Is it the same
service pack?
Is it the one to install?


thank you in advance

To determine the service pack level, execute: select
@@version
You can check the version against the list here:

The fixes are the same but the install files are different
for MSDE SP 3 and SQL Server SP 4. You can download SP 3 for
MSDE from:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...&DisplayLang=en
The file you want is: SQL2kdesksp3.exe
