BACKUP CERTIFICATE Alters ACLs On Created File
Feb 8, 2007
NOONE ASKED FOR THIS!!! why the heck is BACKUP CERTIFICATE altering the file's ACLs - it's just a PUBLIC CERT I'm exporting!!
in additions MS doesn't seem able to add the ability to re-inherit file-rights from parent objects via the command-shell.
I export the public-key for a reason! I want to import it on another machine (automatically) to establish a trust. But this freaking "feature" is costing me HOURS of research on how to get rid of these ACLs on a public certificate!!!
argh!!!
sorry, I really had to get this out!
why not at least give us a switch we can set in BACKUP CERTIFICATE command to stop this from happening?
is there a work-around? now I need to activate
EXEC sp_configure 'show advanced options', 1
and
EXEC sp_configure 'xp_cmdshell', 1
just to be able to issue a (not working) DOS command cacls... to try to fix the "feature".
there's got to be a better way!!!
also - why can't there be a switch to force overwriting the target file, if it already exists? It's a BIG PAIN having to do lots of other stuff, just to be able to "backup" the certificate!
You gave us "xp_FileExist", but no xp_FileDelete with similar parameters!! again, I need to issue DOS COMMANDS just to do stuff I would not have to if someone at the levers was actually activating the back-brain!
PLEASE give me some hints on how MS recommends to solve these features!

Hi,
I have created a certificate and now have taken a backup of this file by the following code:
backup certificate EncrProdCode to file = 'C:BackupCertEncrBackup.cer'
with private key(file = 'C:BackupCertEncrPrivKeyBackup.pvk',
encryption by password = 'EncrPrivKeyBackuppwd')
Now i want to create a certificate IN DIFFERENT DATABASE from this file. i m using the following database:
create certificate EncrFromFile from file = 'C:BackupCertEncrBackup.cer'
with private key(file = 'C:BackupCertEncrPrivKeyBackup.pvk',
decryption by password = 'EncrPrivKeyBackuppwd')
But is showing error:
Msg 15232, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
A certificate with name 'EncrFromFile' already exists or this certificate already has been added to the database.
No certificate with this name exists. why i m getting this error. and how can use the same certificate in other database. Is there any other way to create a certificate from an existing certificate file.
Thanks
Gaurav

I've problems with backing up the certificate (on the Witness Server). On principal and mirror, it works fine (Win 2003 Server, US English), but on my local PC (XP Prof, German) what i use as witness Server following backup command raises an error:
USE master;
CREATE MASTER KEY ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = 'something$Strong123';
CREATE CERTIFICATE HOST_W_cert WITH SUBJECT = 'HOST_W certificate for database mirroring', START_DATE = '01/01/2006', EXPIRY_DATE = '12/31/2050';
BACKUP CERTIFICATE HOST_W_cert TO FILE = 'C:HOST_W_cert.cer';
The error message is:
Msg 15240, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot write into file 'C:HOST_W_cert.cer'. Verify that you have write permissions, that the file path is valid, and that the file does not already exist.
I connect to the database with a domain user what is a local admin on the witness server (my local user), so this couldn't be a permission reason. The file doesn't already exists, so that is not the problem.
What could it be?

I have a package in which there are only one Data flow Task and it has only three components. 1) Source , which is a SQL db 2) destination and 3) OLE DB Destination flat file Error output file. I want the error file to be created ONLY if there is any error while dumping the data into destination DB. But , the issue is, the error flat file is being created inspite of No error while dumping the data from Source to Destination.

Need to know how I can get the dynamic filename created in the FlatFile destination for insert into a package audit table?
Scenario: Have created a package that successfully outputs Dynamiclly named flat files { Format: C:Test’Comms_File_’ + ‘User::FileNumber’+’_’+Date +’.txt’
E.g.: Comms_File_1_20150724.txt, Comms_File_2_20150724.txt etc} using Foreach Loop Container :
* Enumerator Set to: “Foreach ADO Enumerator” with the ADO object source variable selected to identify how many total loop iterations there are i.e. Let’s say 4 thus 4 files to be created
*Variable Mappings : added the User::FileNumber – indicates which file number current loop iteration is i.e. 1,2,3,4
For the DataFlow task have a OLDBSource and a FlatFile Destination where Flat File ConnectionString is set up as:
@[User::Output_Path] + "Comms_File"+ @[User:: FileNumber] +"_" + replace((DT_WSTR, 10) (DT_DBDATE) GETDATE(),"-","")+ ".txt"
All this successfully creates these 4 files:
Comms_File_1_20150724.txt, Comms_File_2_20150724.txt, Comms_File_3_20150724.txt, Comms_File_4_20150724.txt
Now the QUESTION is how do I get these filenames as I need to insert them into a DB Audittable. The audit table looks like this:
CREATE TABLE dbo.MMMAudit
(
AuditID INT IDENTITY(1, 1) NOT NULL,
PackageName VARCHAR(100) NULL,
FileName VARCHAR(100) NULL,
LoadTime DATETIME NULL,
NumberofRecords INT NULL
)
To save the Filename & how many records in each file in our Audit Table, am using an Execute SQL Task and configuring it as this:
Execute SQL Task
Parameter mapping - Mapped the User Variable (RecordsInserted) and System Variable( PackageName) to Insert statement as shown below
SQLStatement: INSERT INTO [dbo].[MMMAudit] (
PackageName,NumerofRecords,LoadTime)
(?,?.GETDATE)
Again this all works terrific & populates the dbo.MMMAudit table as shown below BUT I also need to insert the respsctive file name – How do I do that?
AuditID PackageName FileName NumberOfRecords
1 MMM NULL 12
2 MMM NULL 23
3 MMM NULL 14
4 MMM NULL 1

I am sure I'm being dumb here but I am trying to deploy an assembly with external_access.
I have signed the assembly using the <new> option in the project properties.
When I then try and create the Key I get the above error using the code below.
CREATE ASYMMETRIC KEY SQLExtensionUDTKey
FROM EXECUTABLE FILE = 'C:Documents and SettingsSimon SabinMy DocumentsVisual Studio 2005ProjectsSQLBitsCoreSQLExtensionsSQLExtensions.UDTinDebugSQLExtensions.UDT.dll'

Hello,
I have managed to create a backup of my SQL Express database by using the Transact-SQL from article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/241397.
I am not sure if it backed up the correct database, as in the script from the article, there is no where for me to specify my SQL Express database. The back up file that was created after I ran the script is, msdb.dat_bak.
Now if this is the correct database, how can I restore the data into my vb.net project that holds the SQL Express Database?
Thanks in advance.

I run the following:
EXECUTE dbo.DatabaseBackup
@Databases = 'F1SB',
@Directory = 'F:SqlBackup2014',
@BackupType = 'FULL',
@Compress = 'Y',
@Encrypt = 'Y',
[code]...
I cannot see the file created in the directory. The account under which sql server the agen job run have full privileges on it and is sysadmin.Then i run the Command in ssms
BACKUP DATABASE [F1SB] TO DISK = N'F:SqlBackup2014<server>F1SBFULLIGS-DB01_F1SB_FULL_20150510_214455.bak' WITH NO_CHECKSUM, COMPRESSION, ENCRYPTION (ALGORITHM = AES_256, SERVER CERTIFICATE = [serverCertificate])

Hi, We are trying to implement Service Broker between SQL Server Express and SQL Server on the Same machine and we are having problems with certificates. We are creating a certificate on SQL Server, backing up the certificate on a file system and then loading certificate on the SQL Server Express from the file and we are keep getting the following error: Msg 15208, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 The certificate, asymmetric key, or private key file does not exist or has invalid format.
Following script runs fine on SQL Server.
Code Snippet
use master
Create Master Key Encryption BY Password = '45Gme*3^&fwu';
BACKUP MASTER KEY TO FILE = 'C:ServiceBrokerPrivateKeyMasterB.pvk'
ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD = '45Gme*3^&fwu'
Create Certificate EndPointCertificateC
WITH Subject = 'C.Server.Local',
START_DATE = '06/01/2006',
EXPIRY_DATE = '01/01/2008'
ACTIVE FOR BEGIN_DIALOG = ON;
BACKUP CERTIFICATE EndPointCertificateC
TO FILE = 'C:ServiceBrokerEndPointCertificateC.cer'
Following script runs on SQL Server Express:
Code Snippet
Create Certificate EndPointCertificateC
From FILE = 'C:ServiceBrokerEndPointCertificateC.cer'
WITH PRIVATE KEY (
FILE = 'C:ServiceBrokerPrivateKeyMasterB.pvk',
DECRYPTION BY PASSWORD = '45Gme*3^&fwu'
);
If we run the script other way around, it works fine. If we use the SQL Server on some other machine, the script works fine. But only on the same machine, it throws this error. We made sure the permissions and everything. Let us know if there is any work around or what are we doing wrong.
Any help is appreciated. Thank you,

I am transferring data from an OLEDB source to a Flat File Destination and I want the column width for all of the output columns to 30 (max width amongst the columns selected), but that is not refected in the Fixed Width Flat File that got created. The outputcolumnwidth seems to be the same as the inputcolumnwidth. Is there any other setting that I am possibly missing or is this a possible defect?
Any inputs will be appreciated.

I am getting a return code of 12 (""File not created"") from sp_trace_create. I have checked to ensure that the path is valid. I am using Windows Authentication and the Windows Administrator account. SQL Server is using the Windows userid that I created for SQL Server. I have verified (at least tried to verify) that the user for SQL Server has access to the folder containing it. The following is the relevant portion of what I am attempting. DECLARE @RC int, @TraceId intExec @RC = sp_trace_create @TraceId OUTPUT, 0, N'C:TraceFile' I have tried other paths that also do not work.

Has anyone created a Thesaurus file that is using it? Specifically, has anyone set up a First Name thesaurus file and is it possible to get a hold of it. Why reinvent the wheel if someone has already done this. I am creating a database that needs to return records for fuzzy matches on first names. I don't know what all forms of the names can be such as Robert, Bob, Bobby, Bert or Sue, Suzie, Susie, Susan, Suzanne, etc. and I am betting someone has created something already that can be a starting point at least.
What about the Thesaurus Word currently uses? Does anyone know what the physical file name and location is of the thesaurus file Word uses?
Any help or direction is appreciated.
Thanks

How dow you schedule a file(.dtsx)(I think it is a package) that was created in the SQL Server BI Design Studio to run? I can locate the file I created in SQL Server Management Studio and see it in the right hand pane and even edit it. I can run it in the Design Studio, but cant see how to do that in Management Studio nor how to schedule it.
This is my first attempt at recreating a DTS package using SQL Server tools instead of the Legacy conversion wizard, and I think my brain has overheated. I just cant find it on the Management Screen or the Design. I am also not searching correctly anymore on books online because I cannot find it.
Thanks for pointing me to where I need to go or do.

Hi there,
Background: I've created an application to run on windows mobile 5.0 devices. It replicates to a publication on a server. To do this it goes through ASP.net. This creates the database on the Mobile Devices.
Issue: Problem is the initial download of the database is taking 2hours plus to replicate (create) for the first time. So I'm trying to create the .sdf file on the server, zip it, and send it across to the handheld. All subsequent replications take about 5 minutes.
Question: Does anyone know how, or have examples for creating a Mobile CE database on the server. I need to create it using ASP.net and go through a pre-existing publication where a hostname used for filtering.
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms173009.aspx explains how to create this in SQL Server Management Stuidio. How do you do the same thing over ASP?
Can this be done using SMO? How do you create a SQLServerCompactEdition database using normal .NET Framework? Thanks for your help!!

Hi allI have a question concerning sql database mdf files. In the old days I would user a ms access database. This file would be stored with the actual web files and would utilise a dsn connection. I have noted when designing with vwd 2005 express it allows you to use 2 methods of creating a mdf database. You can either create it as an attachment mdf or you can create it directly using sql manager. My question is, if you create the mdf database as an attachement file can you store it in the same manner as if you where using a ms access database, meaning can you store it with the web site's files so it uses the file storage allocated size and then create a connection similar to a dsn (but for sql) to the isp's sql engine or does it have to be uploaded to the isp' s sql server.The reason for this question is some of my customers do not want to pay the extra cost to have an sql allocation, however I do not want to go back to using old asp methods to create advanced sites as I prefer using stored procedures. Any help will be appreciated

I'm working on an SSIS package that uses a vb.net script to grab some XML from a webservice (I'd explain why I'm not using a web service task here, but I'd just get angry), and I wish to then assign the XML string to a package variable which then gets sent along to a DataFlow Task that contains an XML Source that points at said variable. when I copy the XML string into the variable value in the script, if do a quickwatch on the variable (as in Dts.Variable("MyXML").value) it looks as though the new value has been copied to the variable, but when I step out of that task and look at the package explorer the variable is its original value.
I think the problem is that the dataflow XML source has a lock on the variable and so the script task isn't affecting it. Does anyone have any experience with this kind of problem, or know a workaround?

I love SQL Server Reporting Services (SSRS), but it doesnt let me name the tabs when exporting to Excel. The feature is well documented as not being available.
So I figured I can use the cell(1,1) on each tab to contain the tab name, and have an SSIS job poll a file share, open the file, read the cell, rename tabs, rename the file, and then email out the file. Polling the directory and emailing is a piece of cake, but I can't find any way to rename a tab without having Excel loaded on the SERVER. Not to mention instantiating an entire instance of Excel on the SERVER every time I want to do this.
I want to leverage SSRS, and preserve the formatting of the excel file, which is why I don't just dump the data in with SSIS to begin with.
Anybody have any ideas?

Hello,
I have a huge table of around 6.2 billion rows in Oracle and I need to load this table to SQL Server. I am creating multiple raw files based on contact_dates in the table. I have used conditional expressions to branch out and create raw files. I need to specify static file names for each branch or I have to create multiple variables for each branch and use expressions to create file names.
My intention is to create only 1 variable and evaluate the expression based on the conditional expression description. Is this possible?
