Blank Password Policy Problem
Oct 2, 2006Hi all,We recently started to receive complaints about our install project notworking and giving and shitload of error messages related to SQL. Welater found out that the problem was the users we were trying to bindto we're not created because of the domain password policy featureimplemented into SQL Server 2005.After much dabbling around the SQL scripts that created the databasestructure, we came to the conclusion that only this piece of code couldcorrect our problem :CREATE LOGIN mynewuser WITH PASSWORD = '', CHECK_POLICY = OFF,CHECK_EXPIRATION = OFFThis runs perfectly fine on SQL2005, but not on SQL2000. We have beensearching for a way to have code in SQL files executed on install thatdoesn't fail to compile when run against the server and that willbypass the password policy in case it's a SQL Server 2005...Right now we are testing a feature available in MSI that can filterscripts not matching a database version, but the problem with this, isthat we are missing a lot of features that InstallShield has. In short,we need Help to fix this issue and be able to continue withdevelopment.In hopes to receive a a prompt anwser

Feb 6, 2006I've legacy code that requires a blank password for a SQL Server login.
This works fine on 2000 or 7.
How can you allow blank passwords on SQL Server 2005 without changing the windows policy?
Is there a stored procedure to do this?
I know you can now use CREATE LOGIN and set CHECK_POLICY to no on SQL 2005 when creating logins, but this needs to run on SQL Server 7/2000 and so its using sp_addlogin.
(NB: I can't easily change the legacy code to work conditionally on SQL Server 2005)

Anyway To Check If A Text Field Is Blank (not Null But Just A Empty String '') ?
Oct 27, 2004i have a trigger on a table right now... when fields are inserted, theres a text field inserted and i want to check if that text field = '' (the empty string, not NULL) and if it doesn't equal that, then perform some row updates on other tables, but if it is empty, to not do anything else in the trigger... right now i have this:
Code:
IF ((SELECT Note FROM XATPoDetail WHERE ReqNbr = (SELECT ReqNbr FROM Inserted)) LIKE(''))
Note is the text field, XATPoDetail is the table where its being inserted into. I had to do the select FROM the table because it wouldn't let me select a text data type from the "Inserted" virtual table
but it tells me me "Error 279: The text, ntext, and image data types are invalid in this subquery or aggregate expression"
thanks

SQL Server 2014 :: How To Encrypt And Check A Login Password
Jul 6, 2014I am trying to learn how to store a web form password and than check it when the user log in. So far none of the code I can find works.
Why the following test does not work and what the correct code should be?
Insert Into [user]

GO
Why does the following produce no rows?
SELECT *
From [user]
Where HashBytes('SHA1', password) = HashBytes('SHA1', 'bob')

View 3 Replies View RelatedSQL Server Agent Job Will Not Retain Package Password (encrypt Sensitive With Password)
Apr 1, 2008I have a package protected by a password - I am already unhappy that to get it to use the configuration file to change connection strings for the production servers I have had to hardcode the password into the config file - very insecure!
However, the package now deploys correctly to the production server and will run from there OK, but NOT if scheduled as a SQL Server Agent Job. Thus is because however often I edit the command line to include the password after the DECRYPT switch (which it has prompted me for when I click on the command line tab), the Job Step will not retain it.
If I open it up after I have edited it and closed it, the password has disappeared.
I know that if I run dtexec plus the code in the Command Line tab (with the password), the package runs OK.
This is driving me insane!
I have read all the other posts and so I tried replacing the SSIS package step with a CmdExec step and pasting that code into there - then I get an OLEDB error..
The code I use is:
DTEXEC /SQL "ImportRateMonitoringTables" /SERVER servername /DECRYPT password /CONFIGFILE "D:Microsoft SQL ServerSSISDeploymentsRateMonitoringImportTasksDeploymentImportRateMonitoringTables_Production.dtsConfig" /MAXCONCURRENT " -1 " /CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING E
and I get
SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x8000FFFF
although the same code executes perfectly from a command prompt.
Please does anyone have any experience with a similar problem and if so, how did you get round it?
Thank you
SQL 2005 SP2 - Windows 2003 Ent SP1 - Password Does Not Meet The Password Policy DLL
Jun 18, 2007I am receiving the following error message when attempting to create a new SQL Authenticated login id.
Password validation failed. The password does not meet the requirements of the password filter DLL. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 15119)
I have four servers all running SQL Server 2005 SP2 on Windows 2003 Ent. SP1. Of the four servers, only one received the above error message using the same TSQL below.
CREATE LOGIN TEST_LOGIN WITH PASSWORD = 'pvif9dal' MUST_CHANGE, CHECK_EXPIRATION = ON
All four servers are in the same domain, which if I understand correctly, the password policies are therefore inherited at the OS level by the domain. The password being used is within the password policies of the domain.
Any ideas as to a root cause?

Mar 11, 2008On the login prompt for Report Server, there is a checkbox option to "Remember my Password." I check this, login successfully... but when returning to the Report Server, I am again prompted for the password, although the user name is saved. No matter how many times I do this, the password will not save in IE7. I have tried this on 3 different computers with IE7. In IE 6, I do not even get the checkbox as an option, just the user name/password prompt. In Firefox, the password saves fine. Any ideas what would be causing this?

Export Username / Password To CSV File To Test SP To Output Username / Password

Equivalent To MySQL's Password() Function? (was MySQL To SQL Server And Password())
Mar 3, 2005I have an internal Project Management and Scheduling app that I wrote internally for my company. It was written to use MySQL running on a Debian server, but I am going to move it to SQL Server 2000 and integrate it with our Accounting software. The part I am having trouble with is the user login portion. I previously used this:
PHP Code:
$sql = "SELECT * FROM users WHERE username = "$username" AND user_password = password("$password")";
Apparently the password() function is not available when accessing SQL Server via ODBC. Is there an equivalent function I could use isntead so the passwords arent plaintext in the database? I only have 15 people using the system so a blank pwd reset wouldn't be too much trouble.
Set Default To Blank
Apr 6, 2005I am writing a two step process where the record is created and half of the fields are populated. The second step will populate the remaining fields. Between steps they will run queries against the table and the empty fields are <NULL>.When the field is <NULL> it won't return data on "WHERE Field LIKE '%'". I could just pass "" as data to the remaining fields however since MS SQL allows you to set a default value on a field. Is it possible to set the default value to a blank instead of <NULL>. This would help keep my code a little more streamline.
Or is there an easy way to write a fuzzy search that will include <NULL> fields.
Thanks

Good Morning friends. I am using MS SQL Server Reporting Services version 9.00.2047.00 and I have a problem and i would like your help:
I have one report (Cuadro de Mando) and 4 subreports (subquadro, subquadro2, subquadro3, subquadro4):
Note: Nome of the subreports above, have a page break after showing the records and neither the report. The subreports are perfectly designed in the main report (Cuadro de Mando).
There is no space free between the desgin of the 4 subreports.
Each subreport are designed in only one page. I tested each one of the subreports individually and the preview of each is ok in olnly one page.
But when i test the report (€śCuadro de Mando€?) with contains the 4 subreports, one page in blank always appears between the previous page and the next page of the 4 subreports.
What can we do to solve this problem?
Thank you very much.

A Blank In Char Column
Jun 2, 2000Hi All,
I put a blank or ‘0’ in one of column of a text file and then I used BCP to load this file to a table of SQL server 6.5. The field in SQL server table is char type with size 1. After I run this process, all rows with this column received ‘0’ and no blank or null at a black value place. Could you please help me to fix this problem and make some of rows in the column get a blank or null value.
TIA.
