Hi everybody, I have a simple question. Is it possible to install SQL 2005 on a Yahoo Web Hosting Server? and how?

Do I have to have it also installed locally to be able to use it?

Thanks alot everybody and I hope to get this squared away with your help.

I am not sure if I understood your question but i think ur are trying to host a website using Yahoo as your Web host or Service provider. If this is the case then I think the best people to help you would be tech support at yahoo . As per their website . it seems they have a MySQL database that comes as part of the web hosting package.

So i think the answer to your question is No you cannot install SQL Server 2005 on a yahoo web hosting server. Smile

Well, yes to most of what you said, I have a site hosted with yahoo and needed to install SQL Server 2005. Unofrtunately I hope you are wrong when you say that SQL 2005 cannot be installed. Because if thats so, life just got that much more complicated.

No you can't install.
They apparently only offer mysql.

However, you could always do access instead :)

Any reason you can't move to a hosting service that offers SQL Server? There's a big ad on the www.asp.net forums right now.
