Best Practice - Run From .mdf File Or SQLExpress?
Dec 24, 2007
Hi I was just wondering what is more efficient/safer/easier/better to use a database file (.mdf) or SQLExpress. I am writing a program that will heavily rely on the database (its a stock management system)
I was just wondering though which is better, because I could easily create a database file and deploy it with the application it's just the user has access to it that way, also a user not sure what that file is could just delete it and you obviously know the consequences of that.
I also have code that creates and writes to the users SQL Server using .SQLExpress instead of a filename, but my only objection to this method is I dont know enough about security, integrity etc to trust this method also if a user uninstalls the program will it automatically delete the database created?
Well thanks for any help given, it will be greatly appreciated.
Also if you have an alternative route that would be great to
Thanks

Here is my idea but I am looking for the best practice.
Each record can have 3 possibilites.
I would read and write the data 3 times to different tables and add an identity key on all 3 files then I would reassembe the data back together on the identity key and map the data to a fourth and final table.
Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Larry

Hi :)
I have a website that uses SqlExpress ...on it i have a database that was working ok ...until i made a few modifications to the database (had a few rows).
I have upload the database (only the .mdf file) to the app_data folder ...but now i get this message :
One or more files do not match the primary file 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 corrupted and should be restored from a backup.Cannot open database "ArtWork" requested by the login. The login failed.Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE'.Log file 'c:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxApp_DataArtWork_log.LDF' does not match the primary file. It may be from a different database or the log may have been rebuilt previously.
I try to delete the .LDF file but it gives me access denied ...i cheched the permissions for the file and everything is ok
How can i solve this??
Thanks and Cheers

I can't start SQLEXPRESS.
The SQL ERRORLOG shows: Error is 3414, Severity 21, State 2 and says: "An error occurred during recovery, preventing the database 'model' (database ID 3) from restarting." Just prior to this, I get a warning: "did not see LP_CKPT_END".
Any thoughts why this might be and how I can fix this?

I'm using the methods of the Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo namespace within a .NET application to create a backup file from a SQLEXPRESS database. I can then restore the database from that backup device using methods in the same namespace. Here is a snippet from the restore code:
srv = New Server("MYPCSQLEXPRESS")
db = srv.Databases("washmaster")
Dim bdi As New BackupDeviceItem(BackupFileName, DeviceType.File)
Dim recoverymod As RecoveryModel
recoverymod = db.DatabaseOptions.RecoveryModel
rs.NoRecovery = False
rs.Devices.Add(bdi)
rs.Database = "washmaster"
rs.ReplaceDatabase = True
srv.KillAllProcesses("washmaster")
rs.SqlRestore(srv)
This works great as long as I used one of the backup files that I created directly on the disk. However, my application has a utility that allows the user to copy the backup files onto another drive, such as a CD or a thumb drive and when I try to restore from the copy of the backup, I get the following exception:
....Cannot open backup device..[filename]...Operating system error 5(Access is denied.)
The reason I get this error is that the "NETWORK SERVICE" account was removed from the file permissions when the file was copied.
How can I copy a backup to another drive and preserve the "NETWORK SERVICE" account? If I can't do that, is it wise to try to add the account back to the file before using it to restore or is there a better way?
Thanks,
SJonesy

Hi All,
I have created an installation application which will install the application with SQL Express and .NET Framework 2.0.
If i install this application in a Fresh system(i.e which is not having SQL Express), it is installing the application with new database instance successfully.
But if i try to install the same in a system which is already having SQL Express, throwing "Object reference exception" because it is not able to create the new database instance.
Can anybody help me out .

Because of numerous problems trying to get sqlexpress working, I uninstalled it with the intention of reinstalling (via Add or Remove Programs). However, now when I try to reinstall it, I get a message that the I am not making a changes so it won't let me install it.
I do have sql server 2005 developer's edition installed; is that the reason? and does that mean I cannot have both installed on the same machine?

Wasn't sure where to ask this question.
Was wondering what everyone is doing in regards to server/db protection?
Do you run your DB's on independent servers?
Do you run your DB's on clustered servers?
Do you run your DB's on redundant haardware w/ a 3rd party
application for bit-to-bit data replication?
Is anyone placing the DB's on a SAN's?
We're at a crossroads, and looking for a good direction to ensure the DB's are up.
Any insight welcome.
Thanks,
Kerry

Folks - had a look around Google and no surprises, but never found what i was looking for.
I want to see a real work best practice C# Stored Procedure for Sql 2005 (express is what i am using, but don't mind the Sql edition).
Almost everything i see is a "select * from table" which to be honest was my first stored proc many years ago - everything since has been fairly detailed.
I ask as i am sceptical, after years of trying to STOP building Sql queries in code (as it's hellish!) that the CLR technique really makes any kind of a diffence.
If someone has found that it HAS i'd love to hear about it. The thought of:
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand ( "My Whole Stored Proc as Text" );
... doesn't appeal, never mind the potential for debugging syntactical issues and so on.
I was excited by this, until it became something i had to do in a real situation and then i got a little worried. Should i be?

say i have a customer.aspx that allows a user to enter in customer data.
on customer.aspx, i have dropdownSalesRep which allows the user to associate a sales rep with the customerbut some customers come to directly, and not thru a sales rep, so I want the user to be able to specify "none"
Is it best to have a dummy record in my SalesReps table called "none" with an ID of say "999", or is there some other better way to deal with this?

Hi.
We have developed as quite simple ASP.Net webpage that fetches a number of information from a SQL 2005 database. We are having some problems though, becuase of a firewall that is beetween the webserver and the SQL server, and I think this is because of bad code from my part. I'm not that experiensed yet, so I'm sure that there is much to learn.
Usualy when I do a query against a SQL database, I do something like this:
Function GO_FormatRecordBy(ByVal intRecordBy As Integer) Dim dbQueryString As String Dim dbCommand As OleDbCommand Dim dbQueryResult As OleDbDataReader dbQueryString = "SELECT Name FROM tblRegistrators WHERE tblRegistratorsID = '" & intRecordBy & "'" dbCommand = New OleDbCommand(dbQueryString, dbConn) dbConn.Open() dbQueryResult = dbCommand.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.CloseConnection) dbQueryResult.Read() dbConn.Close() dbCommand = Nothing Return dbQueryResult("Name") End Function
Now, lets say that I have a DataList that I populate with Integer values, and I want to "resolve" the from another table, then i do a function like the one above. I guess that this means that I open and close quite alot of connections against the database server when I have a large tabel. Is there any better way of doing this? Chould one open a database connection globaly in lets say the ASA fil? Whould that be a better aproch?
When I added the CommandBehavior.CloseConnection to the ExecuteReader statment, I noticed that it was a bit faster, and I think there was fewer connections in the database, so maby there is more to the "closing connections" then I usualy do.
Any tips on this?

Ok.
I recently started developing a web site for a client using storefront.net and ms sql server.
the db schema of storefront.net has autonumbers as the PKs for the products table (even though the products table contains an additional field for product_number.)
So here's my dilemma if you care to read:
I typically develop local, deploy remote (after testing). I have a local SQL server, and then the remote SQL server.
When I'm developing for this project, I'll insert data such as products to the products table (sometimes several times while i'm working out routines to import data to the products table.) this has the effect of creating a unique ID for each product based upon SQL auto-incrementing INTs.
This StoreFront.net (SF.NET) has another table that is a lookup table. For each part number, it has a corresponding categoryID number.
Now, if i have product_ID 1234, and I set the category ID to say 10 and get it working on my local box, every thing is fine.
Here's where the problem comes in: When I use DTS to transfer the database during remote deployment, each product is inserted into the remote DBs products table and gets a NEW product id. Same with the categories.
This has the effect of breaking the relationships. (SF.NET has no ref integrity nor relationships defined in the db.) let's say my product_id 1234 gets put into the remote copy, it'll get a new product_ID (PK). let's say it's now 5775. now my category ID will also get a new value. so my data is now not related.
I don't know how to handle this situation. The unique IDs generated on my local sql will nearly almost always be different from those generated on the remote db.
How do i handle this situatoin is my question? advice, guys?

Hi to everyone! I've to create a little auction system that runs on web. Before starting developing, I'll would like to be sure to use the best practice...The main aspect is to avoid conflicts on database updating with bids, i.e. if a user places his bid I've to be absolutely sure that his bid is the highest at the moment of updating database. If not, I have to refuse it...So I ask you: using transaction is the best way for assuring the non-conflicts? And may I have to be careful of some other aspect in ASP.NET pages? Or there's no problem of conflicts at page level?Thank you very much in advance for any suggestion, and If anyone has some other thing to say about possible problem on auctions I'll be glad to hear him!!!! ;-)

I have around 10 databases currently residing on different platforms which make-up for roughly a terrabyte of information. I would like to migrate all of these DBs over so that they are all managed under one instance of SQL server 2K. In my view this streamlines things a lot and reduces costs of licensing/hardware.
However, is managing all of these databases on one clustered instance of SQL 2k the best approach from a performace stand point? Would it be better to seperate each database onto its own machine? I am under the impression that given enough hardware (processors, RAM) using just one instance of SQL 2k enterprise should be enough to perform the mangement of this data. Is this correct? Is there an optimal model?
Money is always a concern but in this case, performance is the main objective. The size of the data managed will be growing significantly so the system should be scalable.
My background is as a developer so I may not have provided enough to give a good answer. Please ask questions if you need more detail. I am looking for suggestions on the best way to handle this.
Specifically I would like to know the preferred architecture as well as any suggested hardware.
Thanks in advance

I'm building a database that has maybe four unique tables Student,
Advertiser, Employee, maybe Account. Three of the four table (Student,
Advertiser, Employee) have something in common in which they all contain
fields such as emailAddress, password, role, isAccountActive, etc. which
allow them to access their respected data. However, is it best practice to
build a fourth table which contain Account information or should I just
include that information in their respected tables?
My thinking is that if you have a fourth table such as Account then you can
manage all accounts (Student, Advertiser, Employee) from one table, but as
the database gets more in-depth you have to build more and more complex
stored procedure to do simply task such as update, delete, select, etc.

Hello All ..
This is the scenario I'm having :
-- I'm a beginner so bear the way I'm putting it ... sorry !
* I have a database with tables
- company: CompanyID, CompanyName
- Person: PersonID, PersonName, CompanyID (fk)
- Supplier: SupplierID, SupplierCode, SupplierName, CompanyID (fk)
In the Stored Procedures associated (insertCompany, insertPerson, insertSupplier), I want to check the existance of SupplierID .. which should be the 'Output' ...
There could be different ways to do it like:
1) - In the supplier stored procedure I can read the ID (SELECT) and :
if it exists (I save the existing SupplierID - to 'return' it at the end).
if it doesn't (I insert the Company, the Person and save the new SupplierID - to 'return' it at the end)
------------------------------------
2) - Other way is by doing multiple stored procedures,
. one SP that checks,
. another SP that do inserts
. and a main SP that calls the check SP and gets the values and base the results according to conditions (if - else)
3) it could be done (maybe) using Functions in SQL SERVER...
There should be some reasons why I need to go for one of the methods or another method !
I want to know the best practice for this scenario in terms of performance and other issues - consider a similar big scenario ..... !!!
I'll appreciate your help ...
Thanks in Advance . ! .

Need the following question addressed, as it keeps coming up in our development meetings and has been creating a divide. Pease voice your opinion.
To keep it simple, we have Table1 which identifies several questions that are revised on a regular basis. One of it's columns is called "Revision Status". Within revision Status, we would like to identify the possible status of a question such as:
New Questions;
Revised;
Resubmit;
Inactive;
Active;
...as well as several more.
I'm of the mind to have these in a seperate table identified with a unique ID... call it StatusTable.
Such as:
1 New Questions;
2 Revised;
3 Resubmit;
4 Inactive;
5 Active;
However others feel, just use the "Revision Status" column and simply use the numbers "WITHOUT" a table or description. The developer documentation will tell the developer which number equals the description. ie the following would be found in the Revision Status column.
1
2
3
4
5
My mind says the above is ilogical. I would rather join and say in my statement:
WHERE StatusTable.Status = 'Inactive'
Where the other way would be
Where [Revision Status] = 4
I hope i'm not being thick-headed.
Please advise.

I'm looking for advice on the best way to stop stored procedures and CLR assemblies from being
copied from their originally installed server to a different server, for the same company or even copied
to another company.
Are there established ways for achieving this level of protection.
Also, I was hoping that encrypting stored procedures would be a 100% reliable way to stop
malicious copying of the code. But I have read that this is not the case. Any advice in this
area would also be appreciated.
Thanks

I was thinking about IIS on a DMZ with port 80 only open and the SQL inside the internal network and open port 1443 between them.
Any ideas will be welcomed.
Thank you
Oren Levy
