Is there any way to install the profiler with sql server 2005 Express?.. Or do I have to install the full eval edition?
I could really use it to flush out a bug in an app .
Hi RGR..
According to this link (scroll down to the Manageability topic), Profiler is only shipped with the Standard and Enterprise Editions.
Hope this helps.
Ya learned that the hard way...
Installed the full evaluation version over express but the profiler didn't get installed. Tried uninstalling the tools and reinstalling but that failed too. So I uninstalled everything, reinstalled the eval version + SP1 and now I started debugging the connection troubles .
Thanx for the help.
That link is actually for businesses not for developers, the developer link includes management studio. That said I don't understand what a SQL Server person is doing with Express when the no deployment developer edition is only $33 dollars. Hope this helps.
