问题
When I run the following query [SELECT DATENAME(MONTH,GETDATE())], ideally speaking it should return value as 'September' but its returning value as '09'. I am running this query on MS SQL Server 2005. Is there anything I need to configure with MS SQL Server 2005?
Please find the details of the SQL Server 2005

SELECT @@LANGUAGE -> gives an Asian one?
SET LANGUAGE Japanese
SELECT DATENAME (month, GETDATE())
SET LANGUAGE us_english
SELECT DATENAME (month, GETDATE())
DATENAME depends on language, so need to change server default or your login default language...
Thank you and sayonara...

Hmmmm, I get "September", SqlServer 2005 9.00.3402.
回答3:
Nope, SELECT DATENAME(month, GETDATE()); returns September for me. I just tried it in SQL 2005 and 2008. Where are you executing this query? That may help as to why this is happening to you.

The only thing I can think of would be collation causing that, but I can't find any specific examples of a collation that would do that. The other possibility could be the language which also sets date format. I'm a bit mystified, but these are places to start.

Try running:
select name ,alias, dateformat from syslanguages where langid = (select value from master..sysconfigures where comment = 'default language')
To see what language the system thinks it's using. SqlServer changes its date format based on that.
