AdventureWorks Database - Cannot Access Database Diagrams
Feb 20, 2007
Hi,
When I try to access the database diagrams in AdventureWorks, I get the following message:
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express
------------------------------
Database diagram support objects cannot be installed because this database does not have a valid owner. To continue, first use the Files page of the Database Properties dialog box or the ALTER AUTHORIZATION statement to set the database owner to a valid login, then add the database diagram support objects.
------------------------------
BUTTONS:
OK
------------------------------
Why is this?
All advice / help apprecuated.
Thanks

hello,
i recently changed the machine name of my development computer and am now no longer able to create or view any diagrams for the sql database that was created by the old machine name user. i receive an error where I cannot make myself "the dbo of this database." i can see the old name in the "owner" properties field of the mdf database, but the box is grayed out and i am unable to change it to the new machine/user name. is there a way to change the owner of the database to my new machine/user name? the new name has admin rights and the computer is a standalone workstation not connected to a network.
i am using sql server 2005 express edition with visual web developer.
thanks!

Hi all,
I downloaded and ran AdventureWorks.msi into my SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE) one year ago.But I did not know how to attach it to my SSMSE then. Last week, I deleted it from the "Add or Remove" of Control Panel and I downloaded the new AdventureWork.msi and installed it my SSMSE. Today, I tried to use the Database Explorer of VB 2005 Express for the first Stored Procedure programming. I clicked on AdventureWorks.mdf and I got the following error: One or more files do not match the primary of the database. If you are attempting to attach a database, retry the operation with the correct files. If this is an existing database, the file may be corrupt and should be restored from a backup. Cannot open user default database. Login failed. Login failed for user 'CENADe1enxshc'. Log file 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataAdventureWorks_Data_log.ldf' does not match the primary file. It may be from a different database of the log may have been rebuilt previously. Please help and advise me how to correct this problem.
Thanks,
Scott Chang

I am unable to attach the AdventureWorks database in management studio. I installed it when I installed SQL Server 2005 but can not find the mdf or ldf files anywhere. When I inserted the installation disks again to do a custom instal, and selected AdventureWorks, the response came back that it was already installed. What do I need to do to be able to attache this db in the management studio?
Many thanks in advance for your help.

Is there a way to use an Oracle linked server to create a database diagram? Or do I have to bring the whole Oracle db into SQL7 and then create the diagram?

Do you need to be a member of the dbo role or an sa on a particular sql server to create a database diagram? I just want to confirm this is the case.
Any assistance will be helpful.

In our organization, we are using SQL Server 2005 Management studio as the client interface to access all our enterprise Databases.Most of the databases are built on SQL 2005 DB Server.
However, We have one of the Database built on SQL Server 2000, which also has Database diagrams in it. Though We are able to view all the DB objects through SQL 2005 managment studio interface, but unable to view the diagrams.
I understand that, the binary data of the diagrams are stored in "dtproperties" table on SQL 2000 but in SQL 2005, it is stored in "sysobjects"(not sure) table and both are entirely different.
Following are my questions.
1.Since the DB is still on SQL 2000,How can we view the diagram objects thru the SQL 2005 Enterprise manager.
2.For the migration process of SQL 2000 to SQL 2005, How can i migrate the database diagrams.
Appreciate the responses.

Hello all,
I upsized an access backend to sql 2005. In the process, the relationships were lost. When I go to the database in Sql, right click on database diagrams, all I get is refresh and a link to go to learn about database diagrams. How can I recreate the diagrams?
Thanks

How can I install the AdventureWorks database on my box where C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90ToolsSamples is missing? My SQL 2005 is currently without AdventureWorks OLT. I downloaded the Enterprise trial before uninstalling SQL2005Express. Please help. Thanks.

I'm not sure that I installed the AdventureWorks database when I originally installed SQL Server 2005 on my pc, but I thought I'd better go thru the tutorial and it uses AdventureWorks, so I put my CD in to install it and started the install.
When I got to the screen where you choose your components, I only checked the Sample Database selections at the bottom. Then I got a screen saying the components had already been installed. So I thought I must have installed AdventureWorks when I did the original install, but the tutorial says to go to Registered Servers and do a new Server Registration choosing the AdventureWorks database on the Connection Properties tab. But it isn't listed there when I browse the server's databases.
How can I get it installed?
NOTE: I had SQL Server installed on my C: drive, but had a major corruption issue, so I added a second hard drive to my system and installed XP on it. So my boot drive is now by G: drive, not C:. SQL Server and most of the other programs I use have been re-installed on G:. I DO have northwind.mdb & ldb files on my C: drive. Would it be easiest to just restore them to G:? Are they the AdventureWorks database?
Thanks.

Today I installed SQLEXPR.EXE that I found here:
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?ProdName=Microsoft+SQL+Server&ProdVer=09.00.3042&EvtSrc=MSSQLServer&EvtID=5120&LinkId=20476
I made sure that I downloaded the 64-bit version.
I then wanted to download and install the Adventure Works database located here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=E719ECF7-9F46-4312-AF89-6AD8702E4E6E&displaylang=en
Since I am running Vista 64-bit, I downloaded and installed AdventureWorksDB_x64. It wouldn't install. I got "Access is denied" and CREATE FILE error plus several others.
I then uninstalled it and downloaded AdventureWorksDB - this is the X86 version. It installed fine.
Can anyone explain what am I missing? Thanks!

I downloaded AdventureWorksDB from the CodePlex website and tried to install it. When the install program tried to attach it to SQLEXPRESS, it gave the error (below). I've also tried attaching the database directly using the SQL Management Studio and got exactly the same error.
I'd never heard of having incompatible database versions for SQL Server before. Am I missing a patch for SQLEXPRESS or ????. Thanks.

Hi All,
I€™ve just installed SQL 2008 Express CTP. Everything seems to be fine except that the folder €śDatabase Diagrams€? is absent in the tree of SQL Server Management Studio. It is the same for newly created databases and databases upgraded from 2005 Express.
Any ideas how to get the diagrams back?

Hello, I'm using C# express with SQL express.
I can create a database, create tables and I can even delete the database but I cannot create database digrams. I get an error that says I don't have a valid dbo user or permissions to impersonate. It asks me if I would like to impersonate but it just fails. Any Ideas? Thanks

When I use the sql 2005 "Database Diagrams" tool for the first time I always get the message: "The Database does not have one or more of the support objects required to use database diagramming. Do you wish to create them?"
1. Does anyone know what the " support objects" referred to are?
2. Why SQL doesn't automatically create these support objects for me? (e.g. do they require a lot of hard disk space so they shouldn't routinely be created?)
3. Is there any way to make Sql automatically create them?
If you can address any of these points I'd appreciate it.
TIA,

Hello,
I have ran into a problem when i'm getting table names in c#.
I have tried the sql command:
select name from sysobjects where type='U' order by name
So it returns the names without a problem. But when I try to access to some tables using their names (to retrieve the columns) I sometimes get the error "Invalid object name" following by the name of the table.
So I realized the if the table was not under dbo user then i would get this error.
for example: "select name from ContactCreditCard"
gives me error because in database management tool it is shown like this: Sales.ContactCreditCard
How can i fix this problem? How to get that prefix of the tables?
Thank you,

Our MS SQL (SQL Server 2000) DBA has database privileges locked downpretty tightly. We end users/developers do not have administratorprivileges for most databases. That arrangement has worked out OK forthe most part. However, it's a bit aggravating that we can't evencreate our own database diagrams. When we attempt to do so (inEnterprise Manager), we get a dialog that says "You do not havesufficient privilege to create a new database diagram."Our DBA is so busy that it's difficult to get them to create ones forus. And even when they do, it seems that we can't even view it online-- we rely on the DBA to give us printed copies or screenshots for ourdocumentation. How ridiculous is that? We'd also like to be able tomanipulate the diagrams online so that we can more easily study ourtable structures, indexes, foreign key constraints, etc. In fact,there doesn't even seem to be any other way to easily view currentforeign key constraints.I realize that this might have to do with the diagramming tool havingthe ability to actually manipulate the database in ways we aren'tsupposed to do (e.g., like creating new tables). However, isn't therea "read-only" version of this tool that will give us what I'm lookingfor? Short of that, are there any other free or cheap tools that willprovide this? Thanks!(Please forgive my ignorance if this has been hashed out before.However, I did search news groups and the web before posting, figuringthis had been covered before, but I didn't find anything thatspecifically addressed this issue.)

This question has been asked several times on this forum, but none of the answers I've seen have worked for me. I just upgraded from SQL Server 2000.
The error I'm getting is:
does not have a valid owner. To continue, first use the Files page of the Database Properties dialog box or the ALTER AUTHORIZATION statement to set the database owner to a valid login, then add the database diagram support objects.
This is a new database I created in SQL Server management studio. It's set to 90 compatibility level. I've tried the "alter authorization" command, which works, but it has no effect (the error is still returned).
The odd part is that if I go to Server Properties->Permissions, select the Login that owns this database, and click "Effective Permissions", I get the error:
Could not obtain information about Windows NT group/user '<username>', error code 0x6e. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 15404)
But I know for certain that this account is valid and that my machine can reach the domain controller: 1) I received no error when I added this Login to the server and 2) I'm logged into SQL Server Management Studio using the same login.
If I switch to the "sa" user, it works. But I'd really rather find out what I can't use Windows authentication.
