I am trying to backup a database with a command like:
BACKUP DATABASE my DataBase TO DISK = '\bkSystemkDiskBackup1.bak'
but I get the error 'Cannot open backup device '\bkSystemkDiskBackup1.bak'. Device error or device off-line.
The bkDisk folder is shared, with Everyone full-control access (it's a test environment)
I would like to backup my databases to a network share (NAS) instead of local disk using Maintenance Plans created by Enterprise Manager. I have successfully used a UNC path to target the destination network share but have not been to figure out how to submit a logon to the network share before the backup is executed.
The SQL Server instance is running in the context of the local system account.
Can I insert a step in the SQL SQL job that is created by the Maintenance Plans that changes the Windows account that the backup runs under? If yes what command syntax would I use in the inserted step or is there another way to accomplish that I'm attempting to do?
I am experiencing an issue with SQL Server 2000 Maintenance Plan. DB Backup job fails to delete old backup files from the file server (I am backing up to the network share - actually, a DFS). Backup part of the maintenance plan/job succeeds, but then cleanup part fails.
I made sure that service account under which SQL Server Agent is running, has sufficient privileges over the network share by logging in and successfully deleting files in question.
I was not able to locate any log entries either on the SQL Server machine or on the file server machine that would indicate the root of the problem. Even though I turned on auditing for Delete operations for the destination folder, its subfolders and files, I could not find anything in the Security event log.
I would appreciate any ideas on how to troubleshoot and correct this problem.
Hi,I am not able to execute following command from computers other than the SQLserver itself.select * from openrowset(bulk N'\ImageServerModelCam_05.dwg',SINGLE_BLOB) as docI get following error message:Msg 4861, Level 16, State 1, Line 1Cannot bulk load because the file "\ImageServerModelCam_05.dwg " couldnot be opened. Operating system error code 5(Access is denied.).If I use local file path and keep the file on the SQL server then it worksfine from any computer.select * from openrowset(bulk N'D:ModelCam_05.dwg', SINGLE_BLOB) as docThe network share has read access for everyone.What should I do to make it work? I am not allowed to move the files and theapplication which loads them to the SQL server.ThanksSachin G
I've recently moved an asp.net website from my PC to a network share because another tech it going to be working on it. I finally got the correct permissions on the network share and the correct .NET Framework settings on my PC to be able to run the app. Now I can't access the SQL server which is on a different server. Getting the following error: Request for the permission of type 'System.Data.SqlClient.SqlClientPermission, System.Data, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed.

Hello All, I 'm trying to attach a database to my sql server 2005 using the following syntax:
Code Snippet
DBCC TRACEON(1807, -1) GO EXEC sp_attach_single_file_db 'MyNetworkDB', '\leaf7dbsMyNetworkDB.mdf' GO
Also, the folder dbs and the mdf file MyNetworkDB.mdf has full permission for Everyone.And when executing the above statement, i get the following error:

DBCC execution completed. If DBCC printed error messages, contact your system administrator. Msg 5133, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Directory lookup for the file "\leaf7dbsMyNetworkDB.mdf" failed with the operating system error 5(Access is denied.).
This is my first time using the forums here nor am I a SQL programmer. I'm trying to help a coworker figure out how to access files from a network share (using a UNC path) from a different domain. Right now we have three domains - Production, Development, and the Local. There is a one-way trust setup with the development and local domains, so using cross domain accounts is easy. Unfortunately, we cannot setup one right now with our production domain to any of the other two domains. Is there a way to pass production credentials from our local or development domain servers to a production server share? Am I even approaching this in the right way? Maybe there is a different method, any help would be GREATLY appreciated! -Andrew Network Administrator
Somehow I have an impression this can be done. Somehow I tried myself by modifying MsDtsSrvr.ini.xml to point it to network UNC share, but it didn't work for me. It gave me an error
"Failed to retrieve data for this request (Microsoft.SqlServer.SmoEnum) Additional Information: The storage localtion for the folder 'File System' cannot be accessed. (MsDtsSrvr)"
I checked my UNC permission, and I even allow full access from "everyone", but it still does not work.
I paste my MsDtsSrvr.ini.xml here too, and any help is greatly appreciated!
Can a SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition database file be deployed on a file share and be accessed by multiple (5-10) concurrent users? This is a current scenario being implemented at several sites using MS Access databases.
Each client would have the SQLce engine installed on it and would only access the database via a managed C# application.
I have SQL Server 2014 (Enterprise) on Server A. The service runs under DomainAAdmin.
The Client machine is B, User credentials DomainBUser.
DomainBUser has a share on B that contains a BCP data file. DomainAAdmin has full access to this file.
If I log onto A (the server machine) with either DomainAAdmin or DomainBUser credentials, and run SQL Server Management Studio with Windows Authentication I can run BCP sucessfully using the following:
BULK INSERT [MyTable] from 'Bsharedatafle.tsv' WITH ( KEEPNULLS , KEEPIDENTITY ) However, if I log onto B, (the client machine and the machine hosting the share) and try to run the same bcp command, I get "Access is Denied".
I have developed a Windows App in VS.NET 2005 which connects to a SQL 2005 Express database.
Now I want to install the app and database on the network and I am getting an error "File 'file_name' is on a network device not supported for database files"

In the "Choosing Between SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition and SQL Server 2005 Express Edition" white paper, i can read that: "SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition support data file storage on a network share" and "Number of concurrent connections = 256"
But when i try to connect with two different PC at the same time to a .sdf file store on a network share, i have an error message : "File is locked by an other processus"
The firsth PC is connected but the secondth can't
";Mode=Read Write" in the connection string don't change anything.
I am running Microsoft SQL Server 2012 SP on a Windows Server 2008 R2 Standard SP1 box. The SQL Server service is running as a simple windows domain user (nothing special, no admin rights, etc.) I am having some issues with using Bulk Insert when the data file is on a network share when using Windows Authentication. What is known is that the SQL Server service account has access to the network resource, which is shown by logging into SQL Server with a SQL account and doing the Bulk Insert. I also have rights to the files on the share, as shown by the fact that I put the files there. My SQL is in the form of:
Bulk Insert [table name] From '[server][share][filename]' With (FirstRow = 2, FormatFile='FormatFile.xml')
Now, when connecting to SQL Server with Windows Authentication and running the Bulk Insert I get the following error:
Msg 4861, Level 16, State 1, Line 2 Cannot bulk load because the file "[server][share][filename]" could not be opened. Operating system error code 5(Access is denied.).
I found this snip at
BULK INSERT (Transact-SQL)Security Account Delegation (Impersonation), which says, in part (emphasis mine):
To resolve this error [4861], use SQL Server Authentication and specify a SQL Server login that uses the security profile of the SQL Server process account, or configure Windows to enable security account delegation. For information about how to enable a user account to be trusted for delegation.
How to Configure the Server to be Trusted for Delegation, and we tried the unconstrained delegation and I rebooted the SQL server, but it still does not work. Later we tried constrained delegation and it still does not work.
I have verified the SPNs:

If I move the source file to a local drive (on the SQL server), all works fine, but I must be able to read from a file share?
I need some advise/help how to deploy a small sql server compact 3.5 database on networkshare where about 8 people have access to it(install de client ) and can modify the database with aprox 3000 records. I'm using visual basic 2008 and created a compact database and filled it with one table of an export of an access database done with data port console. And created a new windows forms application and saved the project. Publish is not the problem but how too set it up...... There is not much info to find on how to get a sql server 3.5 database running on a network share. Who can help ???
Hopefully a painless and quick question to answer:
Am backing up the SQL2000 database(s) using the maintenance plan's under management in the Enterprise Manager. All is fine however, we are running out of diskspace as the database grows, which is causing the backup to fail if I don't manually remove the nights before.
I have selected to delete old backup files however these files are deleted after the new file is generated and due to the lack of space the new one is not being generated....so in effect the older ones never get a chance to be deleted.
So I was wanting to know if it is at all possible to backup to a UNC path or share . I have tried however it raises an error saying it is not a valid path.
Any assistance here is hugly appreciated (asides from getting new disk - as this isn't a short term option at the moment)...
The SQL Server is installed on SERVER-A. SERVER-A and SERVER-B are Windows 2003 servers on the same Windows 2003 domain. The SQL Server and SQL Server Agent services are running under the domain account SQLSERVICE. SQLSERVICE is a member of the Domain Admins group. The Domain Admins group is part of the local Administrators group on SERVER-B. The SQLSERVICE account has also explicitly been given Full Control to the folder referenced by \SERVER-BSHARE xp_cmdshell use has been enabled on the SQL Server.
If I run the following command in SQL:
exec master.dbo.xp_cmdshell 'whoami'the following is returned: DOMAINSQLSERVICE If I change the command to access the c: drive instead of a network drive, it executes successfully.
Can anyone shed some light on why I still cannot access any of the files in this folder using xp_cmdshell?
I am trying to set up log shipping in a clustered server environment. I am pretty confused about the location of the shared folder to be created to put backup created by log shipping job. Which drive should I use either local or clustered shared drive to store the backups in primary server and to copy the same in secondary Server?

I have creted a backup device on network drive and getting the following error when I run the backup command as a job.SQL server and the agent are running on a domain account which has full permission on the network drive.Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks!
"Cannot open backup device 'mccdiffbkpond2build'. Device error or device off-line. See the SQL Server error log for more details. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 3201) Backup or restore operation terminating abnormally. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 3013). The step failed"
I am setting up a backup on one of my DB's and the network drive does not appear as an location that I can backup too. Only the C drive is present. However, on the server I do have a drive mapped to the network drive, so it should be available. Has anyone encountered this issue before?
I have scheduled a backup on a remote machine. Everyday I FTP these backups from the remote machine to the local drive.
A local drive is maped to the remote machine in Windows NT Explorer but SQLSERVER7 Enterprise Manager can't see this drive so that I could do the backup to it.
If I dump 20GB DB to hard disk on same Server it takes approx. 2 hrs(give or take). If I dump same DB to tape, also approx 2 hrs. If I restore to same or different server on same hub it takes approx 2 hrs. However, if I dump to different server on same hup it takes 10 - 12 hrs. E.G. Dump 20 GB DB from server A to disk or tape on Server A -- 2 hrs. Restore to Server A or Server B from disk on Server A -- 2 hrs. Dump 20 GB DB from Server A to Server C -- 12 hrs. Same hub. Restore Server D from Server C -- 2 hrs.
All 100mbps cards on fiber. Same hub.
Any suggestions as to why the difference when dumping across the network as opposed ro restoring across the network??? Bill
