Backuping Up Database --- ROOKIE ---HELP !!
Nov 9, 2000
I am getting an error backing up databases on a remote SQL Server. I have tried using two options:
1. All tasks, Backup Database... (Enterprise Manager)
2. Database Maintenance Plan Wizard
In both cases, I get the following error:
2000-11-09 18:21:34.93 kernel BackupDiskFile::CreateMedia:
Backup device 'FMSSQLBACKUPwOLTP_db_200011091821.BAK' failed to create.
Operating system error = 5(Access is denied.).
What are the exact NT and SQL Server permissions needed to perform backups.
Also, I am able to write manually to the backup directory not through the SQL Server application.
NOTE: ALTHOUGH I WAS ABLE TO REGISTER THE REMOTE SERVER USING USER sa,
I CANNOT STOP OR START ANY OF THE SERVICES (SQL SERVER AGENT...)
OR CONFIGURE THEIR STARTUP ACCOUNTS (GREYED OUT)!!
PLEASE HELP
THANKS

I am trying to backup a database to tape. I'm using Microsoft SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition.

Hello,
I would like to create a SQL Server DB on my win95 machine...I have VB Studio 97 Enterprise Edition loaded on my machine.
When I go to Interdev and try to create a Project (via New DB wizard) the first question is "What Server do you want to create your DB on?"
I haven't found ANY documentation that details how to set up the Client and the Server on the SAME machine.
1) Can you set up SQL Server in a way that the same machine is the Client and the Server?
2) Do I need anymore software than VB Studio 97 Enterprise Edition? (To setup a SQL Server DB on my machine)
I basically need guidance on how to create a DB on my local machine, so I can reference it in my ASP application.
I appreciate your help, RB

Hi,
I'm trying to read the most recent entries in a table of data.
Its fairly straightforward because there is a timestamp saved when I write into the table.
For a table with the following columns
Username, description, location, timestamp, result1, result2
I can select the max timestamp for a username and it will return the most recent date/time that an entry was written to the table for that particular user. No problems with that.
However, what I really want is to select the most recent timestamp for each location for each username; I also need the result1 and result2 fields returned.
Thus for the following table:
user description location timestamp result1 result2
Jo Red Hall 01/01/06 Yes Yes
Jo Blue Hall 01/02/06 Yes No
Jo Blue Deck 01/04/06 No No
I would like a query to return:
Jo Blue Hall 01/02/06 Yes No
Jo Blue Deck 01/04/06 No No
The problem is if I do
Select max(timestamp) as Tmstp, description, user, location, result1, result2 from tblSomeTble
I will get
Jo Red Hall 01/01/06 Yes Yes
Jo Blue Hall 01/02/06 Yes No
Jo Blue Deck 01/04/06 No No
because some of the results are different and thus the SQL will return the most recent entry for each unique combination of user, location, result1 and result2.
I've solved the problem by doing two separate database reads; the first does a simple
Select max(timestampdescription) as Tmstp, user, location
then I use VB.net to fill a dataset and read these values from the dataset and plug them into a second SQL for a second database read like:
Select max(timestamp) as Tmstp, description, user, location, result1, result2 from tblSomeTble where timestamp = [timestamp from first sqlread] and user = [user] and location = [location from first sqlread]
it all works fine, but I'm aware its messy and probably not very scaleable to have multiple database reads that are unnecessary. It must be a commonly encountered problem though? How do other people handle this? is there a common solution people use?
thanks

Hi everyone,
I'm new to SSIS. I need to Extract, transform and load data from one SQL table to another. I want to do something like "select count(a) from table 1 where ...."
I have define the following Data flow items on the package designer, I believe that OLE DB source & OLE DB Destination, are correctly configured, however i don't see how can i transform data on the "OLE DB COMMAND" item....should i use "data conversion" instead ?
ps: is there any site where i can find examples of data transformations ?

I have much MSACCESS expeience and am new to SQL so here goes...I am trying to create calculated fields in a view, but can't seem tomore complex calculations to work.I can create a new field which does simple arithmetic on two otherfields and rename it so it becomes part of the new view to be queriedby other views, but when I use more complicated constructs I can'tseem to get them to work.For starters:How do you create a new field that has a number based on an IFconstruct based on another field.Example:field1 has state abbrevs and field 2 should have a "1" if field1="NY".In access I do field2:IIF(field1="NY",1,0),How do I accomplish this in MS SQL.Can it be done in the view?Thanks,Brad

Sorry to bother you guys with what I though would be an easy task. Ihave a table in my database were I would like one of the rows toincrement a number for each row. I want the first row to start at 1000and keep on incrementing by 1 'till the end of the rows (about 2.7million rows). I though this would be a piece of cake, but I just can'tseem to find anything like it on the internet...weird.Anyways, I'm just a rookie in sql, any help would be appreciatedThanksJMT

Hi
Sorry for asking what may be a rookie question... We have configured transactional peer-to-peer replication in a testing environment with two servers, each publishing and subscribing to each other. If we write a piece of code that updates the same row on both servers with different values, we are not seeing data conflict issues. The data updated on server 1 propagates to server 2, but at the same time data updated on server 2 is updated on server 1. This leaves the records on each server out of data.
I expected my test case to produce errors, but instead I got inconsistent data. How do you turn on data consistency checking?
Thanks in advance

We replicate a SQL2000 database (DataBaseA) to a SQL2000 database (DataBaseB) by using the Restore function and hasn't change its logical name but only the physical data path and file name. It is running fine for a year. We use the same way to migrate the DataBaseB to a new SQL2005 server with the Restore function and the daily operation is running perfect. However, when we do the Backup of DatabaseB in the SQL2005, it just prompt the error message
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The backup of full-text catalog 'DataBaseA' is not permitted because it is not online. Check errorlog file for the reason that full-text catalog became offline and bring it online. Or BACKUP can be performed by using the FILEGROUP or FILE clauses to restrict the selection to include only online data. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
Please note we left the DataBaseA in the old SQL2000 server.
Please help on how we can delete the Full-text catalog from DatabaseB so we can do a backup
Many Thanks

Greetings, I have just arrived back into the country (NZ) and back into ASP.NET.
I am having trouble with the following:An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file (file location).../Database.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share.
It has only begun since i decided i wanted to use IIS, I realise VWD comes with its own localhost, but since it is only temporary, i wanted a permanent shortcut on my desktop to link to my intranet page.
Anyone have any ideas why i am getting the above error? have searched many places on the internet and not getting any closer.
Cheers ~ J

I executed the above code in my SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE) and I got the following error messages:
Msg 911, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Could not locate entry in sysdatabases for database 'NORTHWIND'. No entry found with that name.
Make sure that the name is entered correctly.

I know I recreated the NORTHWIND Database from a different Database before and I did not do anything for the entry in sysdatabases. How can I change the entry in sysdatabases for database 'NORTHWIND' now? Please help and advise.
Thanks in advance,

We have a SQL database that uses Active Directory with Windows Authentication. Can users that are members of the Active Directory group that has read/write access to the SQL database create ODBC connections to access the database directly and update the data? They dont have individual logins on the server. They are only members of the Active Directory group that has a login?

I had to to relocate the database log file and I issued an Alter database command but by mistake I put a space in the file name as below. The space is at the beginning file name. Now I am unable get the database loaded to SQL Server. The database has 2 replications configured, so deleting and re-attaching the database means the replication needs to be re-configured. Is there an alternative way to issue a command to update the database FILENAME ? Not sure if this can be edited in master database (sys files).
ALTER DATABASE [User_DB]
MODIFY FILE (NAME = User_DB_log, FILENAME = 'I:SQLLogs User_DB_log.ldf')

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 have installed 2 SQL Server 2005 Express sample databases from 2 books, ASPnet 2.0 and ADOnet 2.0. The ASPNETDB.MDF was shown in App_Data and Database Explorer, but not in the SQL Server Management Studio Express. The AdoStepBy Step database created by a ConfigDB.exe was displayed in the Management Studio, but not in the App_Data, or Database Explorer.
Is this the way SQL Server 2005 runs the 2005 databases for SQL Server 2005 Express only? Or also in SQL Server 2005?
TIA,
Jeffrey

I am new to SSIS. I have been struggling with this for the past one week. I have a weird task. I need to import several tables from one database to a different server with a new database name. We need to do this at the end of every year. The main problem here is that the number of tables varies every year. You may not have all the tables as last year or may have more tables. So I need to create a dynamic task that takes care of this every year without changing the package.
I have performed the following tasks **
1. Create a new dynamic database. ( I have used Execute SQL Task to do this) 2. Copy all the table structures ( I have used Execute SQL Task to do this)
3. Import Data. This is the main problem. I was trying to create a dynamic connection string with variables as suggested in several forums but I finally came to know that this cannot be done if the table structures are different as the metadata cannot be refreshed at runtime.
4. The final step to create a process to validate the data (the count from each table for both source and destination. I think this can be done with Sql task.
What is the best method to do this? My DBA does not like “Transfer SQL Objects Task” or “transfer Database Task”. I would like to create this as a dynamic process.

I have a medical records system, SoapWare v4.90, that uses MSDE (SQL2000) databases. Due to the 2gb limitation, I am trying to migrate over to SQL 2005 (Standard or Express) which I have heard works fine. The SoapWare has a datamanager that allows me to log in to the MSDE instance, detach the SoapWare databases from msde (as well as do backups, etc) which I can confirm are detached.
Then I log back into a SQL2005 database instance using the datamanager and try to attach the database. This is what their pictured instructions demonstrate. However, I get the following error:
Database 'sw_charts' cannot be upgraded because it is read-only or has read-only files. Make the database or files writeable, and rerun recovery.
Of course, some of the entries will be read only, since doctors have to sign off the charts and are not allowed to subsequently change them. But I should still be able to switch over to sql 2005?!?!?!?
Or... is there a way to attach the databases to SQLExpress manually?
Help pls?

Hi all (newbie @ asp.net)(oldie @ ASP 3)What is the purpose of using an attached MDF database files in the App_Data folder on a web site as to importing it into the SQL server directly or creating it on the SQL server. Does a mdf database attached file purely use the SQL server as a connection interface.Is it something similiar to DSN(ODBC) Connections for ms access databases.
