Basic Steps As How To Web Usage Mine In Sql Server 2005
Jan 26, 2007
Hi there,
I am doing a project on web usage mining of my universities server logs and im just wondering how i go about mining them in sql server 2005?
Do i mine them in one table? do i normalise the web log data? what algorithms will i use on them as im trying to get usage patterns from the users and also where most of the users come from.
Hello, Thanks for reviewing my question. I have installed VisualStudio 2005 on a computer and would like to know if I can install SQL 2005 Server and replace the SQL Express version? Will VS recognize it? Many Thanks to the Experts Peter
We have several jobs that if any step fails, we need to continue with the next step. Due to this we have the both 'On Success Action' and 'On Failure Action' set to 'Go to the next step'. Our only issue is that when all the steps are done we still require the job itself to fail.
So my question is this, is there anyway the status of a job can be queried to determine if any of it's steps failed?
I have just take my system back to the factory defaults after some unsuccessful attempts to install 64 bit and 32 bit sql server on my notebook. I am looking to use either 32 or 64 bit (I have disks for both) and I would like to get a step by step guide that will help me through the process.
I tried an install of the 64 bit version, applied SP2, and it went smoothly but the report services browser didn't work. I tried to change some IIS settings but I didnt document what I changed so i was unable to undo the changes that i made when these didnt work.
I tried several combinations of things but then decided that a clean install on a clean system was the best option.
I need the SQL engine , reporting services, analysis services - and possibly integration services - i am not sure if i need notification services (dont know what it does anyway!)
I also have vs2005 - should i install that first or after sql server 2005 SP2?
Hi, I am developing an application for pocket pc 2003 smart device which utilizes synchronization between SQL CE 2005 and SQL server 2005 by means of REMOTE DATA ACCESS method call PULL( ) and PUSH( ) but currently these are the details of the error Im encountering when PULL( ) method is called:
Error code: -2147467259 Descripion: An error occured on the computer running IIS.Restart the IIS server.
Minor error: 28022 Source: SQL server CE Currently Im developing this application as a final project and due to some limitations I have setup my pc to act as the SQL server and the IIS server both on the same machine.
Is there any way to measure bandwith usage during merge replication between sql server 2005 and sql server mobile 2005 running on a cradled wm5 mobile device.
Attaching the windows performance monitor to the network connection established over usb would work although I was wondering if there was something specific for this case integrated into Sql server 2005 / sql server mobile 2005 / Sql server management studio / third party tools that i could use ?
We have an application that we currently run on SQL Server 2000 that works by creating a DTS package that it then executes.
Due to performance reasons, we have been considering switching to 2005, for a few reasons. Can anyone confirm clarify the following?
1) SQL Server 2000 caps RAM usage at 2GB, whereas SQL Server 2005 is only limited by the OS - RAM usage is a big current issue for us, so if upgrading to 2005 would solve this it would help a lot. Can anyone confirm my understanding of this? 2) Would using the legacy DTS in SQL Server 2005 take advantage of this RAM difference, or is it running on the old 2000 engine and only able to use the 2GB?
Whenever I try to install SQLServer 2005SP2 (downloaded from Microsoft Page) there is always an error message. A recently applied update, KB921896, failed to install..
I tried downloading all the types of setup for SQLServer 2005 (x86, x64, IA) and the same error occurs.. I am using WinXP SP2, what's behind this stupid errors? I really want to start using SQL Server because i am using VWD 2008 Express. Somebody help me for this please. I need complete details. Thank You very much..
I'm having trouble doing a basic permission, I need to prevent one user from seeing one column in a view, such as a students phone number. However, when I deny the user from seeing the column it denys the user from viewing the entire view. Can someone tell me the correct way to deny the user from just the one column.
What are the basic processes for maintaining an SQL SERVER 2005 Database? Is there a top ten list of things you should do periodically to all SQL SERVER 2005 databases?
hi i have windows vista home basic.I am trying to install sql server 2005. I have two issue: 1)Its always throwing a popup window saying sql server has a know issue and do you want to continue. 2)I am not able to connect to any database engine.
I just installed SQL Server 2005 on Windows Vista Basic platform with just windows authentication, installation went pretty well, but when I tried to logon to the server, it gave me error "Logon failed with error code 18456".
I logged on as administrator, service for SQL server is started, but I can't logon. Can you please help.
I have six stored procedures that I have to run hourly during the day. When I schedule them into separate SQL jobs (they must run concurrently), the percent CPU of Sqlagent90.exe process goes way up, eventually pegging out the overal CPU usage on the server. When I run the six stored procedures concurrently from query windows in SQL Server Management Sudio, the overall CPU usage stays very low.
Is there something about the SQL Server Agent that inherently adds CPU overheard? Thanks in advance ....
we are working on a release 2.0 mobile solution right now. In our version 1.0 we did not have to worry about memory issues as our application was the only application running on our target devices (e.g. T-Mobile MDA Compact II Pocket PCs, WM2005). Now we need to share the available memory with others. As our application relies on its SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition database we are wondering about memory usage of that server.
We know that a Pocket PC divides its memory into Storage and Program. If our application uses a 5 MB database and 1.5 MB for DLLs and it's exe-file. These files reside in the storage space when not loaded. When the application starts up it is loaded in the program memory. What happens to the 5 MB database file? Is is loaded into Program memory as well? Are only portions of that file loaded? Or is nothing loaded at all?
Does anyone have a deeper insight into that server an can answer my questions.
1) We are migrating data from SQL Server 2000 to 2005 DB.
2) We are developing SSIS packages in client, build, deploy and install and copying to SQL Server 2005 server to execute for migration.
3) For this we encrypt all packages with password, then decrypt all while executing in a batch file using dtexec. This works fine.
4) What does not work is executing a master execute task in which are individual execute tasks. This is so since the other packages are still encrypted.
5) We decrypted them separately first using dtutil using Decrypt and Copy/Move option but while executing error is thrown that these other packages are still protected by password.
6) Do we need to decrypt, then encrypt using default package protection level and then decrypt again.
7) How exactly to just execute a master package when packages are developed on client.
I have recently installed SQL Server 2005 (Developer Ed) + SP1 onto a VMWare based Windows 2003 + SP1 server. SQL Server works fine when connecting to it using Mangement Studio on Windows XP. However, I have noticed strange CPU usage on the server which seems to be caused by Management Studio (either directly or indirectly). When no-one is connecting to the server using Management Studio, the server happily ticks along with CPU usage around 1-5% range. However, as soon as someone connects to the SQL Server instance using Management Studio the CPU usage begin to go up and down constantly. The CPU usage ranges from 5-50% and it goes up and down (fairly regularly) every few seconds. It does this even when nothing is actually being done in Management Studio. The moment Management Studio is closed, the CPU usage goes back to normal. The processes on the server that appear to be causing the CPU spikes are services.exe and wmiprvse.exe. On a possibly connected note (though possibly not), the Security log in the server's Event Viewer shows that there are logins occuring every minute or so (most of the logins are from my account). Any ideas?
I've created SQL Server Agent jobs through management studio on SQL Server 2005. I can view and edit these jobs when I am logged into the server via remote desktop, but when trying to administer these jobs through Management Studio on a different machine, the steps do not appear in the job properties window. Anybody else see this behavior? Know why it occurs? Is it a bug, or another wonderful "feature" of Manglement Studio?
Hi, i am new to sql server and visual basic, i need to connect my sql server database to a new application i've developed in visual basic 2005 express. Can any one tell me the steps to do this. Many Thanks.
I go to Server Explorer, right click on Data Connection, input the server name (that is, my own computer), give a new name to the database to create, and then inevitably get the error window saying:
An error occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connectiong to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL server does not allow remote connections. (Provider: Named Pipes Provider, error 40, could not open a conection to SQL Server)
So, how to open a connection to SQL server 2005? I looked in the msdn but found absolutely nothing.
Hello sql and .net gurus :-)I have a problem with my website www.eventguide.it. It's completly developed under .NET 2 and SQL Server 2005 Express. My problem is the folowing:The server is a Intel 3Ghz HT processor with 1GB Ram. No other page on the running system is a CPU consuming site. We optimized the SQL statements, the code, the caching and many other parts of the website (pooling on SQL access), but the SQL Server uses about 50% to100% of the CPU and about 400MB RAM all the time. The whole site seems to be very, very slow. In fact there are many of SQL operations on every page request, but we cache a lot of them in different ways (page output caching, application caching). So I don't understand we have so much performance problems. Any suggestions for optimised code in general? I read nearly all of the MS .NET performance papers - but real world experience is the missing part :-) It is better to cast the values of a SQL reader like thisDim String1 as String = Ctype(DataReader.item(0), String)Dim Integer1 as Intger = Ctype(DataReader.item(1), Integer)or like thisDim String1 as String = DataReader.item(0) Dim Integer1 as Intger = DataReader.item(1)Thanks a lot for your help!FOX
HiIm trying to connect Visual Basic Express 2005 to a remote SQL Server Express 2005. I cant find how i can do that in VB.net Express.In Web developer there are no problem to connect to a remote SQL server but i cant find it in VB.net Express. The XP with the SQL server that i want to connect to is on the local network. Greatful for help!
Hi Guys, I created a Product database table using Visual Basic 2005 Express and SQL Server 2005 Express. I have just added a new column [Picture] to the database table, which of course, should store an image or picture of a product. I am writing to kindly ask you guys for help .
i) How do I include image files into this column [Picture]? ii) How do I get this image to display on Visual Basic 2005 Express form, so that when a product is selected the product image is displayed accordingly?
I would be very grateful if someone could take a look at my command line install and offer advice on if I am doing it correctly.
The reason I am asking is because I cannot seem to get the server installed without having errors during the installation: "The SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) service terminated with service-specific error 17113 (0x42D9)"
Looking at the server error log indicates that master.mdf was not in the data directory (I have however specified a different data directory for ease of backup by our software and this is created during the install but does not have this database in the data directory - it is however in the template data directory!
I also get this error when the SQL Server service is started: "The SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) service terminated with service-specific error 3417 (0xD59)."
All advice is welcome. Please see below my batch file. Also, if you think I should do this in a different way then please let me know. I basically want to install SQL server on a customer computer and automate the install so the custoemr does not need to enter any information.
The goal of this install is: [1] Deply a custom .Net application and SQL server at the same time on the same computer without user input. [2] Allow remote .Net applications (designed by myself also) to connect over a LAN (and later maybe over a WAN) to the database to the above database.
The command line is this (I have also included the batch file I am usign below). For ease of reading I have put the parameters on a new line below:
SET MODE=/qb SET SETUP_EXE=sqlfilessetup.exe %MODE% SET SQLDATADIR=c:SqlData
SET SET_USERNAME=username="CustomerUsername" SET SET_COMPANYNAME=companyname="OurCompany" SET SET_ADDLOCAL=addlocal="SQL_Engine,SQL_Data_Files,SQL_Replication,Connectivity,SDK" SET SET_DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=disablenetworkprotocols="0" SET SET_INSTANCENAME=instancename="MSSQLSERVER"
SET SET_INSTALLSQLDATADIR=INSTALLSQLDATADIR="%SQLDATADIR%"
SET SET_SAVESYSDB=SAVESYSDB="1" SET SET_USESYSDB=USESYSDB="%SQLDATADIR%"
SET SET_SQLAUTOSTART=SQLAUTOSTART="1" SET SET_SECURITYMODE=SECURITYMODE="SQL"
@REM === RE-INSTALL PARAMS - NOT CURRENTLY BEING USED?? SHOULD I ADD THESE ALSO? === SET SET_REINSTALLMODE=REINSTALLMODE="omus" SET SET_REINSTALL=REINSTALL="SQL_Engine,SQL_Data_Files,SQL_Replication,Connectivity,SDK" SET SET_REBUILDDATABASE=REBUILDDATABASE="1"
I have a date (my birthday). I would like to find the closest birthdays to mine, both before and after my birthday. I would like to list the people in my database who are the closest age to me, but in that order. So sorting my table by age and taking a row below and above my birthday is not going to work. This is because the three people below me may all have their birthday the next day, while those above me may have theirs years before mine.
Birthdays sorted by date:
05/10/1979 jim 12/01/1980 bob 10/04/1983 mike 10/05/1983 larry 11/21/1983 dan 12/07/1984 josh 05/07/1999 dylan
The order I wish to achieve is:
10/05/1983 larry 11/21/1983 dan 12/07/1984 josh 12/01/1980 bob 05/10/1979 jim 05/07/1999 dylan
Hi, I want to make a component library in Visual Basic.NET and connect to a remote Sql Server. When I create a new DataSet with the wizard, I can only connect to a .mdf file, but not to a Sql Server. With Visual Web Developer I can connect to a Sql server. What is the difference between these enviroments ? How can I do the same with Visual Basic.NET ? Thanks in advance.
The package is corrupt, who knows why, who knows what. It was running fine but there was a bug in an active script. Having failed miserably to debug this (note the ability to put a breakpoint in a script would be nice and dear god do not ask for edit and continue in here, it is bad enough as it is!) i eventually stuck a ref to the winforms namespace and debugged with a hundred messagebox.show statements. I did try to fire up an event that would write to an event tlog and i'm pretty sure that that is where the main problem lies as the package is still trying to load/use/connect to some log options but it did run for a while after i abandoned this path. Either way, I need some clue as to what bits of the xml file i can hack cos that is all i can get access to. 4 miles of xml, somwhere within the errors below are related. Clue me please or its curtains. Note also, the package is corrupt everywhere - in bin, in deployment, could not the last good compile get saved somewhere for recovery purposes as opposed to being overwriten with the bust one?

I used to create DTS Package in SQL Server 2000 and some times schedule accordingly , but in SQL 2005 although there is a provision to buid the same through integration service but couldnt able to succeed.
( the goal is to transfer the data from one table to another in different database)
Is there any document or any one can provide the steps involved in developing DTS Package in SQL 2005
