I have installed a SQL server 2008 R2 on my client. An other server is installed on a server (SQL 2005).I want to make a replication between this two machines. On the SQL 2005 server I made a publisher. Then I want to make a subscriber. If I want to make a subscriber it gives an error. "The selected Subscriber does not satisfy the minimum version compatibility level of the selected publication". I have found a solution and it says I have to make a subscriber on the 2008 box. So I connect with the IP adres in the 2008 box and I make a subscriber. The machine gives another error. Connection through a server alias, IP adress, or any other other alternate name are not supported. Specify the actual server name, 'servername' (replication.utilities).So I disconect the server and I want to connect the 'servername'. Another error I got: A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL server.If I try to connect from the 2005 server to the 2008 server it works through a instance name. But if I try to make a connection from 2008 to 2005 instance name it don't work (with IP address it works but then I can't make a subscriber).I hope someone can help and I hope you will understand what I am trying to do.Thanks in advance |

Yes, I have tried before to make aliases. But it doesn't work.Publisher: Serverip: 10.192.2.142, Instance = IC-SR-CPI-TT-01, Port= 1433Subscriber: Instance IC-LT-DRHQH3J, Port = 1433I make on the publisher an aliasAlias name: IC-LT-DRHQH3JPort No: 1433Protocol: TCP/IPServer: IC-LT-DRHQH3JIf I do this, I can't connect :(If I connect from the publisher to the subsriber it works. If I try to connect from the subsriber to the publisher it does not work. |

I already tried that and it just worked. If I delete the alias from the subscriber it still works. I always can connect on the publisher with the subscribers instance.When I try it the other way it doesn't work |

Hi,We are trying to configure the same replication.transactional replication for 2005 publisher --> 2008R2 subscriber.We are also getting the same error:The version of SQL Server running at the Subscriber is incompatible with the publication. Either upgrade the Subscriber to '%1' or change the publication compatibility level of the publication to match the version of SQL Server currently running at the Subscriber.Can anyone tell me how to solve this error?Thanks in advance! |
