Cannot Access Database Using SQLCMD
Mar 16, 2006
Hello,
I am using SQL Server 2005 Express. I need to run a transact-sql script file to update the database. I am getting a "Login Failed" error when I use the SQLCMD utility. I use Windows Authentication.
Here is the command I use:
sqlcmd -S .SQLEXPRESS -d C:Progra~1MyProgramDataMyData.MDF -i MyUpg.SQL
Here is the message I am getting:
Msg 4060, Level 11, State 1, Server VAIOSQLEXPRESS, Line 1
Cannot open database "C:Progra~1 MyProgram Data MyData.MDF" requested by the login.
The login failed.
Msg 18456, Level 14, State 1, Server VAIOSQLEXPRESS, Line 1
Login failed for user 'VAIOUser Name€™.
Actually, it seems to work on my development PC, but have problem when using on a customer's machine where the product has been installed.
Any help will be appreciated.

Scenario:
I have installed SQL Express 2005 and I want to create a new DB using sqlcmd.
I am running a command like: sqlcmd -i file.ini (I am logged like Administrator of PC)
the content of the file.ini is:
-- Get the SQL Server data path
DECLARE @data_path nvarchar(256);
SET @data_path = 'c:Program FilesMyTestdatabase'
-- execute the CREATE DATABASE statement
EXECUTE ('CREATE DATABASE DataCollection ON
( NAME = DC_dat,
FILENAME = '''+ @data_path + 'DC.mdf'',
SIZE = 10,
MAXSIZE = 50,
FILEGROWTH = 5 )
LOG ON
( NAME = DC_log,
FILENAME = '''+ @data_path + 'DClog.ldf'',
SIZE = 5MB,
MAXSIZE = 25MB,
FILEGROWTH = 5MB )'
) ;
GO
I obtain this error:
Msg 1802, Level 16, State 4, Server TESTQ5SQLEXPRESS, Line 1
CREATE DATABASE failed. Some file names listed could not be created. Check related errors.
Msg 5123, Level 16, State 1, Server TESTQ5SQLEXPRESS, Line 1
CREATE FILE encountered operating system error 5(Access is denied.) while attempting to open or create the physical file 'c:Program FilesMyTestdatabaseDC.mdf'.
If I change the security of directory database (I add "modify" permission to Users windows group) the error disappear.
I am logged like Administrator... why is it necessary to change directory permission?

I searched and found similar questions on this forum, but nothing quite fits my situation.
When I try to run the SQLCMD per the instructions given on the 2nd page of the Guided Tour, the command aborts with the following message.
HResult 0x2, Level 16, State 1Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server [2].Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft SQL Native Client : An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections..Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft SQL Native Client : Login timeout expired.
I had to run the command from the command prompt window by manually navigating to sqlcmd's subdirectory to see this message. Using the Run window results in the command window closing before the message can be read. I tried using both my machine name and "localhost." Same result.
What is a local vs. remote connection? How could I perform this via a local connection, assuming that's the problem? Or how can SQL Express be configured to allow the remote connection? Did I do something wrong on the install?

We have been asked to look into using stored procedures with SQL Server 7.0 as a way to speed up a clients site. 99% of all the articles I have read along with all the books all say Stored Procedure should be used whenever possible as opposed to putting the SQL in your ASP script. However one of my colleagues has been speaking to Microsoft and they said that that they were surprised that our client wanted to use Stored Procedures as this was the old method of database access and that now he should really consider using COM objects for data access as itis much faster. Has anyone got any views on this or know of any good aticles regarding this matter ?

I have recently upgraded to SQL2014 on Win2012. The Access front end program works fine.
But, previously created Excel reports with built in MS Queries now fail with the above error for users with MS 2013. The queries still work for users still using MS 2007.Â
I also cannot create any new queries and get the same error message. If I log on as myself on the domain to another PC with 2007 installed it works fine, so I don't think it is anything to do with AD groups or permissions.

I need to determine the following about the current authenticated Windows domain user who is trying to access a SQL Server via a trusted connection.
1 Has the current user been granted login access to the trusted SQL Server?
2 Has the current user been granted access to a specific database?
3 Is the current user a member of a specific database role such as (DB_ROLE_ADMINISTRATORS)?
Thanks,
Sean

I developed a database with Access 2003 and everything was working good until my tech came in and reformated my hard drive and install a new Ghost image that met our company standards.
Now I cannot go in and make any changes to any of the tables, queries and forms. All of this started when a new Ghost image was installed on my pc.
The message I get when I try to open my database is "You do not have permission to run "tblSwitchboard." I get the same error message when I try to do anything at all on the database.
I am at a loss as to what to do. Please help.

I cannot get SQLCMD to run. When I run it, it appears for a few seconds then dissappears. I tried running it in cmd and it says it cannot run because the default setting for SQL server does not allow remote connections. Please help.

Hello,
Does anyone know how to execute a stored procedure in a SQLCMD script? Here is what I have so far and it doesn't seem to be working...
:r $(rootPath)"Script.sql"
GO
exec sp_Proc
GO
Also,
Is there a way that I can pass the $(rootpath) as a parameter in my stored proc?
Thanks!

I am trying to backup/restore a sql db using sqlcmd. My question is, the box that I am trying to run sqlcmd on does not have SQL server 2005 installed, can I just copy SQLCMD.exe to the box instead of Installing it? if so, are there any other files that I need to copy as well?
I have another instance where I was trying to backup/restore a 2000 sql db and all I did was copy the osql.exe and resource files to the box and was able to run this command with out installing SQL server 2000. So, did something change with SQL serve 2005?
Thanks for any suggestions

how can i change the view in sqlcmd?
such as changing the font or the window size so that a command such as sp_tables will list on one row rather than several. Also I would only like to see 10 records or so at the same time. Currently in default setting, if i run sp_tables I can really only view the last few records.
thanks!

Hi
I found it a bit annoying to type Go after some very simple query and I wonder is there a short cut to execute the query i type right after I press enter?
1> select * from Table
2> go <enter>
instead, how to you execute line 1 without entering go?
Thank you

I am working with SQL Express and found myself surprised when I tried to automate a backup... No Agent.
So I am trying to create a simple backup script to run from the command line and probably schedule through the scheduled task manager.
here is my problem. I get the following error :
Msg 2812, Level 16, State 62, Server FIREFLYSQLEXPRESS, Line 1
Could not find stored procedure 'B'.
Here is the batch file
sqlcmd -i c: emp estDBbackup.sql -o c: emp estoutput.txt -S FIREFLYSQLEXPRESS
And here is the sql input file :
BACKUP DATABASE [DNNDEV] TO DISK = 'C: emp estdnndev.bak' WITH NOFORMAT, NOINIT, NAME = 'dnndev-Full Database Backup', SKIP, NOREWIND, NOUNLOAD, STATS = 10;
If I put a USE statement in front of my backup statement - the error message changes to
Could not find stored procedure 'U'.
So it would appear to list the first character encountered.
As a sanity check I created a similar process which does a select * from a table and I do not get an error saying :Could not find stored procedure 'S'. - instead all is well and I get my output and no error
If I try the backup command in SQLCMD interactively it works.
so what the heck am I missing ?
Thank you for any help...

Just installed SQL Server 2005 Express along with the Management Studio. The Management Studio, at least what I've seen so far, seems to work fine. But when I type "sqlcmd" at the command prompt, I get "sqlcmd is not a recognized internal or external command, operable program or batch file." What gives???

GreetingsI'm trying to follow the tutorial at http://www.asp.net/Guided%2DTour/s2.aspx Part way through the demo it asks me to run the following command as part of building a Demo web page access SQL dataC:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90ToolsinnSQLCMD"
-S "machine-nameSqlExpress" I am then supposed to paste some script into that window, but cant get that far. The black Command window opens, but the SQL > prompt doesn't appear, and the window closes. I had previously installed a demo version of Web Developer Express from my Action Pack, on a SBS Server Premium 2003 R2, clean installation. When I got to the above step in the demo there was no ...90Toolsinn folder so, I uninstalled the Action Pack version and the versions of SQL server that looked like they did not belong to the original SBS Server installation. I then downloaded the version from Microsofts website, and selected .Net SP1 and SQL Server Express ( or lite or whatever it's called ) that were part of the install dialog box. When checking for updates, the .NET SP1 and Visual Studio SP1 initial failed. Rebooting installed .Net SP1, but I had to do a hard reboot as the installation still wasn't complete after 2 hours. I assumed it was hung. After restarting, I was able to go to MSUpdates and the installation was successful.Currently the add remove programs shows a ton of SQL stuff, ..I'm guessing we have version conflicts or something but I don't know.. Microsoft SQL Server 2005Microsoft SQL Server Desktop engine " Native Client " Setup Support files " VSS Writer Visual Studio seems to run okay, but I would like to be able to do SQL database part of the tutorial, since I don't know much about it as you can tell, and I would like to see it work with web sites.

I can Add a connection to the database in VisualStudio 2005 in the Solution Explorer and access the database. Connection string copied from VS "Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=C:TempMyDB.mdf;Integrated Security=True;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True".
If i start the command prompt and type:
sqlcmd -SlocalhostSQLEXPRESS -E -d c: empMyDB.mdf
I get the error "Login failed for user 'MyDomainPer'"
As I see it integrated authentication with the same user is used in both cases so they should give the same result. What am I doing wrong?

At the end of my rope here ... I was using SQL Express 2005 without trouble, until one day I couldn't access my database. I spent a day hunting down the issue without success. I uninstalled and reinstalled SQL Server many times, each time hoping it would somehow help ...
I can access SQL Server just fine through SQL Server Management Studio Express. I can get in by typing "sqlcmd -S {my machine name}SQLEXPRESS". However, I am working on a FoxPro application, and I cannot connect using FoxPro. It doesn't even seem to recognize the existence of SQL Server on the machine. Also, when I log in using sqlcmd, and type ":serverlist", I would expect my SQLEXPRESS instance to show up. It doesn't - the list of servers is empty. I suspect this is the problem, but have no idea what may be causing it.
Cumulatively, I've probably spent 3 work days trying to figure this out. Does anyone have any pointers or ideas that might help me figure out why ":serverlist" doesn't list my machineSQLEXPRESS, even though I can log in fine using Management Studio? Any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you,
matt

I have a SQL server 2000 box. I saw a post some time ago in MSDN Forums that the sqlcmd utility could be used on SQL Server 2000 as well. However, when I tried to install sqlcmd using file SQLServer2005_SQLCMD.msi downloaded from Microsoft, I got following error:
Setup is missing prerequisites:- SQL Native Client
Does this mean that I need to install SQL 2005 Client? How do I make sqlcmd work on a SQL Server 2005 box?
Please advise. Thanks.

As a complete beginner regarding SQL Server, I installed SQLExpress and lots of other things Microsoft told me to (without understanding why) accepting all the defaults offered.
I can make a connection to the server with "SQL Server Management Studio Express", create a database and add one two tables and views.
But all other things I've tried seem to go wrong without me having the slightest idea why, e.g.:
% SQLCMD.EXE -S swansqlexpress
HResult 0xFFFFFFFF, Level 16, State 1
SQL Network Interfaces: Error getting enabled protocols list from registry [xFFFFFFFF].
The above for instance when the protocol "Shared memory is enabled". If any combination of the other protocols are enabled, then I get a different error message.
I also cannot use the ODBC Management Tools to define a DSN connecting to SQLExpress ("Server does not exist or connection refused).
What I really want to do is to import data, using ODBC, from a different RDBMS into SQLExpress. Before writing my own scripts to do this, I had hoped that there would have been some GUI interface to SQLExpress with a nice little button saying "import external data". Is their such a beast?

OSQL and SQLCMD does not work from commandline and produces this constant burnt in message.
Sqlcmd:Error:Microsoft SQL Native Client:Login timeout expired.
Cleint and Server have the same set of protocols
Studio has been added to the list of those permitted by Firewall
Tried to connect through tcp, lpc
Remote has been enabled.
SQLNativeClient does not have a property or method by name 'timeout'.
Let me know if something else is needed?

Are the extended command always executed even if it is contained within an IF statement???
I created test.sql script as follows:
if '$(CreateA)' = 'Y'
begin
:out $(myDir)testY.log
print 'CreateA is yes'
end
else
begin
:out $(myDir)testN.log
print 'CreateA is no'
end
At the command line prompt enter:
sqlcmd -i test.sql -v CreateA="Y" MyDir="C:Temp"
I expected the file C:Temp estY.log to be created with the line "CreateA is yes", which occurred successfully. However, C:Temp estN.log was created as well, but it was empty.
I deleted the log files and executed the following sqlcmd statement:
sqlcmd -i test.sql -v CreateA="N" MyDir="C:Temp"
The C:Temp estN.log was created with the line "CreateA is no", but C:Temp estY.log was also created.
Is there any way to conditionally execute a sqlcmd extended commands?
Thanks!
