I am very new to SQL and just completed an install of SQL 2005 Express. After install, I downloaded the Adventure Works database and attempted to attach through both the Object Browser (right-click 'Databases'--->'Attach') and by running the script that is located on the SQL download page where I got the Adventure Works db.
Here's the error that I get:
"Could not find row in sysindexes for database ID 8, object ID 1, Index ID 1. Run DBCC CHECKTABLE on sysindexes."
I have attempted to go through the help files, but unfortunately the above message is too cryptic for me and I have no idea what it's telling me.
The Data Mining Tutorial accompanying the June CTP includes mention of a table DimProspect. Despite the csv file existing in the Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90ToolsSamplesAdventureWorks Data Warehouse path containing the data for the table, the instawdwdb script doesn't include any reference. Can someone supply me with the necessary script for this table?
I'm new to the whole DB thing so I wanted to start off easy and download SQL Express. That part worked fine so I tried to install the Adventure Works DB to get some practice using the SQL commands. The problem is every time I click on a table in Adventure Works and choose Open Table I get a Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio box that pops up. The error says: Class Not Registered (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80040154 REGDB_E_CLASSNOTREG))
(Microsoft.SqlServer.SqlTools.VSIntegration)
Help!! Any ideas out there how to get the Adventure Works DB working? Thx much.
C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90ToolsSamplesAdventureWorks Analysis Services ProjectStandard, select the file Adventure Works DW.sln
---------------------------error msg Microsoft Visual Studio
The application for project 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90ToolsSamplesAdventureWorks Analysis Services ProjectstandardAdventure Works DW Standard Edition.dwproj' is not installed.
Make sure the application for the project type (.dwproj) is installed.
I was studying the Adventure Works database because I read it contains good examples of best practices.
It has an ID column for each table that is auto-incrementing Primary Key. There is also a row guid which seems redundant since the ID PKs are identity columns that increment automatically and should be unique in a given table.
What is the purpose of the row guid being used in conjunction with the ID which should be unique in a given table?
I am trying to locate the solution file for the Adventure works DW included as part of the installation of SQL Server 2005 to be opened in Business Intelligence Development Studio, But where is the solution file saved? I can see its database from Management studio but I need to know its solution file to locate it in Business intelligence studio. Please could anyone here give me some idea about that. Thanks a lot in advance for any help and guidance for that.
I have got sql server developer 2014 64 bit, but i cannot attach the adventure works 2014 or 2012, keeps giving me errors. so is their an exe file or another way to install this to the database.
Using windows 8.1 64 bit enterprise, jaws 16, and sql server 2014 developer 64 bit.
I'm running Windows Xp Pro With SQL 2005 Dev edition with Adventure Works sample db installed. I am the local administrator on my desktop, the services are up and running and I specified local connections only since this is the DEV edition of SQL05.
When I try either one of these connection strings: Data source=(SQLDEV05); initial catalog=AdventureWorks or Data source=(local); initial catalog=AdventureWorks.
I receive this error message:
TITLE: Microsoft Report Designer -----------------------------
A connection cannot be made to the database. Set and test the connection string.
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.

I am trying to create a Adventure Works Tabular cube in my developing machine and im having problems deploying the tabular cube (the DW database was firstly attached without problems)
So I'm having problems processing Adventure Works Tabular Cube, the problems are somewhere between SSAS project configuration and running privileges, i think. I'll describe exactly where i am:
- in SSMS 2012, connections, tables and roles and roles are empty, i only have the full name of the database when I try to process i get an error "the table with id of "product category 92583829......", Name of Product Category refereced by the model Cube, does not exist. An error ocurred when loading the model cube, '?c:program filesmicrosoft sql serverMSAS11.MSSQLSERVEROLAPDataAdventureWorks Tabular model SQL 2012.0.dbModel.21.cub.xml'. (Microsoft AnalysisServices.)"
- in SQL Server configuration Manager, I have Sql Server (MSSQLSERVER) running with account NT ServiceMSSQLSERVER Sql Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER) running with account .L.ABCDE , which is my account, i've changed because i've read somewhere that i could have problems with privileges.
(Note: it's strange because SSAS is tabular, i can see a blue rectangle (sort of) in SSMS but in configurator manager seems to be a cube.)
- in SSAS Project i unzip a clean copy of the project and the first error is that BIM file can't be found, it try's to find server TOSHIBA_S50_BTAB, but as i have only tabular SSAS running, i replace for TOSHIBA_S50... And some time ago it worked, now it doesn't even found TOSHIBA_S50_B?!!!!
Hi I have three questions about several topics. In this code: public string ConnectionString { get { return "Provider=MSOLAP.3;Data Source=localhost;Initial Catalog=Adventure Works DW"; } }
What is data source and initial catalog and what does this code do? And if I want to use other database how can change this code? (This code is for data mining viewer client project) And in this code: SqlConnection cn = new SqlConnection("Data Source=localhost;Initial Catalog=AdventureWorks;Integrated Security=True"); SqlCommand cm = new SqlCommand("Select AddressID,AddressLine1 from Person.Address", cn); SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(); da.SelectCommand = cm; DataTable dt = new DataTable(); da.Fill(dt); this.comboBox1.DisplayMember = "AddressLine1"; this.comboBox1.ValueMember = "AddressID"; this.comboBox1.DataSource = dt;
what is comboBox1.DisplayMember and comboBox1.ValueMember ,and what is difference between those ? and other question: in adventure works dw project for data mining predicting ,in forecasting model ,if I want to show the result of this query in the combobox in c# how can I show that? SELECT PredictTimeSeries(amount) From [Forecasting] And again in this code ,it has a result which has two culomns ,on of them is for amount and other column is for time ,in sql I can save this result in exsiting table or neew table with wizard,but I want to Do this work in c#,that€™s mean with a adomdconnection I connect to forecasting model and write this query then in a datagridviwe ,Iwant to see the values of prediction in adventure works dw database. Other question: In €œdataminingviwerclient€? project I change this code and you can see it,for this code I have a form that give servername and catlogname in that and then with clcking on a button I want to show the chart of model in a child form ,but I can€™t.
public Form1 form1 = new Form1(); public string m_ServerName; public string m_CatalogName; public Form3() { m_ServerName = ""; m_CatalogName = ""; InitializeComponent(); }
public string ConnectionString { get { return "Provider=MSOLAP.3;Data Source=localhost;Initial Catalog=Adventure Works DW"; } }
private void ShowModel(Panel panel, string modelName) { AdomdConnection conn = new AdomdConnection(); try { MiningModelViewerControl viewer = null; MiningModel model = null; MiningService service = null;
// Clear any existing controls from the panel if (panel.HasChildren) panel.Controls.Clear();
// Connect to server conn.ConnectionString = ConnectionString; conn.Open();
// Determine the viewer type based on the model service and // instantiate the correct viewer model = conn.MiningModels[modelName]; service = conn.MiningServices[model.Algorithm]; if (service.ViewerType == "Microsoft_TimeSeries_Viewer") viewer = new TimeSeriesViewer(); else throw new System.Exception("Custom Viewers not supported");
// Set up and load the viewer viewer.ConnectionString = ConnectionString; viewer.MiningModelName = modelName; viewer.Dock = DockStyle.Fill; panel.Controls.Add(viewer); viewer.LoadViewerData(null); } catch (System.Exception ex) { MessageBox.Show(ex.Message, "Model Load"); } conn.Close(); when I run this code ,I have one error that say: the €œ object not found parametr name:index Please see this code and answer my question. If you just can answer one of my qestions ,please say. Thanks a lot for your answers.With best wishes for you
I am trying to delete tables from data where the ModifiedDates older than 9 years in AdventureWorks2012 database . I get console notified that foreign keys are dropped but the delete statement is throwing errors. I am sure that somewhere the key constraints are not getting altered, but i'm not able to figure it out as i'm a relative beginner to T-SQL. The error and code:
The DELETE statement conflicted with the REFERENCE constraint "FK_SalesOrderHeaderSalesReason_SalesReason_SalesReasonID". The conflict occurred in database "AdventureWorks2012", table "Sales.SalesOrderHeader [System.Reflection.Assembly]::LoadWithPartialName("Microsoft.SqlServer.SMO") | Out-Null $option_drop = new-object Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.ScriptingOptions; $option_drop.ScriptDrops = $true;
i followed all the instruction to add the database of the adventure works to the database server. but when i attach the database from the managment sql server this error comes
Couldnt find row in sysindexes for database ID 8, object ID1 ..........etc
and couldnt open new database 'adventureworks'. create database is aborted.
please i need a qucik help. cuz i tried the msdn and i failed.
I have procedures scheduled to run it was fine and started giving the following error last couple of days. If I run the procedure from SQL analyser it works fine.

I have a simple report which calls another subreport. I can run the report successfully in both the Report Designer and through the Reporting Manager. Security has been set for all users in the Report Manager for both the Main Report and the Sub Report.
When another user tries to run the report from Report Manager they get a one line error message in the Main Report which says "Subreport could not be shown".
I am a Systems Administrator, during testing I have added the other users to the System Administrator Group also, but this made no difference.
to download AdventureWorksDB.msi. Once I save that to my local machine I run the install and it completes with no errors. Unfortunately, I can't see any of the data in SQL Server Management Studio Express. I'm new to SQL Server Express so maybe its me, but I get the feeling that it was never added to the database. I'm still looking for SQLServerExpressSamplesOverview.htm to see if I am missing a step but I can't find it anywhere.
The install seems to have extracted database files but if I need to run some scripts by hand to create the database I don't know which order to run them in.
I'm trying to import a tab separated text file into sql server 2005 using the import guide. But when running the job I get the error message
Error 0xc02020c5: Data Flow Task: Data conversion failed while converting column "Column 19" (67) to column "Column 19" (404). The conversion returned status value 2 and status text "The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data.". (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)
The column 19 which reported a problem contains this information: ?searchroot=/_gen_/txt/&template=std.htm&use=prospect&intref=1_26067
However what is mysterious is that if I open the file in notepad or Excel and resave it again the job runs perfectly. This is not a way we could make it work later on since it's an automatic job that will run each night on a new text file.
The text file is sent from Norway to Sweden - and I use ANSI latin 1 when importing.
The column has datatype DT_STR with a width of 500.
I use Locale Swedish and when I save in Notepad it is saved in ANSI,
I have a new named instance (SQL Server 2005 x64 SP2 (Build 3159) Developer edition) setup with dynamic port selection. A default instance was also running on the server prior to the named instance setup.
SQL Server Browser service is running. Remote connections are configured on the named instance. But still remote clients can only connect when the port number is specified after the instance name (servernameinstancename,9999). Without the port number, "error 26 - Error locating Server/instance specified" is thrown.
Doesn't the SQL Server Browser service eliminate the need for clients to specify the port number? What am I missing?
I have an SSAS 2005 database "A" and SSIS package "P" which process full "A" olap database. SSAS SERVER connection string is based on a variable read from XML configuration file.
It works well in BIDS, but when i deployed, the package failed at the step connecting SSAS, the message is "a connection cannot be made, please ensure the server is running"
In the connnecting string, i am using server name like servera.xx.com, if I change it to IP address, it works. if I change it to Localhost(happens to be on the same server), it works.
But I need the server name solution as IP may be changed.
I've got a popular problem so i get a message that server acces denied! ..
But that what is different in my error.... When i use same setting same database and connection string (on MSDE server) there is no problem...
On SQL server i have got windwos authentication but i added all accounts as ASPNET and SA.... and when i try to connect by
RETTO - name of my server
server=RETTO;uid=sa;pwd=password;database=db1; or by Integrated Security=SSPIserver=RETTO;uid=RETTOASPNET;database=db1;
I CAN BROWSE RECORDS THERE ARE NO PROBLEMS WITH CONNECTION!!! but when i try to update or iinsert or delete something in database there becomame this error that access denied or server does not exist!!!
PLEASE HELP I'm FIGHTING WITH THAT FOR OVER 5 DAYS!!!
I MADE FOR MY ACCOUNTS (SA, ASPNET) ALL THINGS ALLOWED AS EXECUTING stored procedures.. OR ACCESING datatables with insert delete and update query WHERE IS THE PROBLEM!!!??
I'm having a strange problem with this but I know (and admit) that the problem is on my PC and nowhere else. My firewall was causing a problem because I was unable to PING the database server, switching this off gets a successful PING immediately. The most useful utility to date is running netstat -an in the command window. This illustrates all the connections that are live and ports that are being listed to. I can establish a connection both by running

Both these utilities show as establishing a connection in netstat so I am able to connect the database server every time, this worked throughout yesterday and has continued this morning.
The problem is when I attempt to use SQL Server Management Studio. When I attempt to connect to tcp:sql5.hostinguk.net, 1433 nothing shows in netstat at all. There is an option to encrypt the connection in the connection properties tab in management studio, when I enable this I do get an entry in netstat -an, see below:
Amost as if it's trying the different ports but you get this time_wait thing. The error message is more meaningful and hopefull because I get:
A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the pre-login handshake. (provider: SSL Provider, error: 0 - The certificate chain was issued by an authority that is not trusted.) (.Net SqlClient Data Provider)
I would expect this as the DNS has not been advised to encrypt the conection.
This is much better than the : Login failed for user 'COX10289'. (.Net SqlClient Data Provider) that I get, irrespective of whether I enter a password or not.
This is on a XP machine trying to connect to the remote webhosting company via the internet.
I can ping the server
I have enabled shared memory and tcp/ip in protocols, named pipes and via are disabled
I do not have any aliases set up
No I do not force encryption
I wonder if you have any further suggestions to this problem?

I'm running a DTS package that works correctly when I do "Execute Package" directly, by right clicking the package.
But, if I schedule the job, it fails.
It's trying to write data to another server, but I can't see why it doesn't work as a scheduled job. I tried changing all the parameters I can think of. I'm no Windows expert, so if you have any ideas, please feel free to explain as if you're talking to a "newbie" (since I am one)
I am going to tangle with our ERP system for the rest of my natural life, and in so doing, will need to create new SQL queries on an almost-daily basis. Based on the handful of queries that I have created against it so far, I recognize that I need to get better at authoring them.
Towards that end, I was wondering if anyone with a little firmer grasp on the subject could take a look at this query (which works & does exactly what I need it to do) and make suggestions as to what I might have done better/differently.
I've changed the names of everything to make it more comprehensible (I hope).
The query returns one row for each unique record in DetailTable, with data from the SummaryTable and a PartDescription from ThirdTable.
FROMtheDatabase.dbo.DetailTable LEFT JOIN theDatabase.dbo.SummaryTable ON DetailTable.RecordID=SummaryTable.RecordID LEFT JOIN theDatabase.dbo.ThirdTable on SummaryTable.PartNumber = ThirdTable.PartNumber AND SummaryTable.PartRevision = ThirdTable.PartRevision
WHERE (SummaryTable.IssueCategory='1' OR SummaryTable.IssueCategory='2' OR SummaryTable.IssueCategory='3' OR SummaryTable.IssueCategory='D' OR SummaryTable.IssueCategory='E' OR SummaryTable.IssueCategory='L' OR SummaryTable.IssueCategory='O' OR SummaryTable.IssueCategory='R' OR SummaryTable.IssueCategory='S' OR SummaryTable.IssueCategory='V' OR SummaryTable.IssueCategory='X' OR SummaryTable.IssueCategory='Z') AND SummaryTable.Facility='Default' AND SummaryTable.Status='OPEN'
I have a VB app that loads 9 text files for 8 different products, one product at a time. The user must select the product to import. For each product the application:
1. Copies the 9 text files from the source directory to a "process" directory. 2. Calls a stored procedure that sequentially calls a different SSIS package for each text file. 3. Performs some additional processing.
Here's the problem. For the 7th product in the sequence, at least 2 of the text files are not being loaded, and no error exceptions are being thrown. For the 8th product in the sequence at least one text file is not being loaded. If I comment out the call to the stored proc in VB and run the stored proc manually at that point in the program, all files are processed.
On the text file side, the files are being copied correctly and the read-only flag on the file is not being set. In addition, I can open the files in a text editor without any problem.
I'm totally stumped here, so any helpful advice would be appreciated.
