servicepack 2

  • hi i am running:

    SELECT SERVERPROPERTY('productversion'), SERVERPROPERTY ('productlevel'), SERVERPROPERTY ('edition')

    and i get

    Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.1399.06 (Intel X86) Oct 14 2005 00:33:37

    is this service pack 2 for sql server? if not, is there any issues downloading service pack 2 for sql server 2005??

  • run this query instead

    SELECT

    SERVERPROPERTY('productversion') "version",

    SERVERPROPERTY ('productlevel') "service pack",

    SERVERPROPERTY ('edition') "edition"

    Always suggest testing before installing a SP. So if you have a test server, do that first.

    If you cannot test, at least get full backups of all your databases and agent jobs.

    //EDIT-

    I see that's the query you listed as already running, which does not give that output you listed.

    You have RTM btw, http://support.microsoft.com/kb/321185

  • I don't think so - sorry I'm beyond sp2 and I'd advise you to go to at least sp2 + cu5 or cu6 - there are some memory bugs in sp2, amongst others. cu5 is 3215 I think - I'd say that would be the minimum you should be running.

    There's a number of web sites which give all the versions but I don't have them bookmarked at home.

    I personally haven't had any problems applying sp2 or the updates, I've had problems with sp2 but that was fixed in the updates.
