View 4 RepliesA former employee at my organization created a replication job to back up our database. The developer has since left and his windows account was deleted. I'm now receiving this error:
SQL Server Scheduled Job 'Replication agents checkup' (0xFC17DD4EF8E5694E8B786EE54CF8AD0D) - Status: Failed - Invoked on: 2007-06-05 15:40:00 - Message: The job failed.

[SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 15404) The statement has been terminated. [SQLSTATE 01000] (Error 3621)).
How can I fix this? I looked under the Replication folder but didn't see anything.
I would like to fail a package depending on the error. The package extracts data from Excel files. I would like to continue processing if an Excel file is badly formatted, but stop processing if there is a serious issue. like the file server hosting the Excel files crashed.
I was thinking about dynamically changing the MaxeErrorCount property based on the Error ID or description.
Any ideas on an intelligent/simple way to do this

How to design tables in SQL Server for the above.
Hi-I have a sql server database, and am wring web apps to access it.I've created databases different ways, and ended up with different owners (eg dbo, nt authorityetwork services...)I also have connection strings using windows authentication, and some using a user name and password.I have read that using windows authentication is the best way to go, as far as security goes, but I have noticed some connectivity issues when I upload the site to the server, and test it remotely. What is the safest 'owner' of the database, and what's the safest way to connect?Thanks Dan
View 8 Replies View RelatedI want 'sa' to own all the user databases. Currently the database properties screen shows the owner as myself, 'al', but the list from the Users tab in EM for the database doesn't list me, but lists the dbo as login name 'sa'. DB_changedbowner 'sa' says:
Server: Msg 15110, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_changedbowner, Line 46
The proposed new database owner is already a user in the database.
BUT, who really owns the database; if it's 'sa' then why am I showing up on the properties page as the owner???
Thanks,

Any idea what is this error that I am getting when trying to change the db owner of the database as sa.Currently owner is different than sa.
Server: Msg 15110, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_changedbowner, Line 46
The proposed new database owner is already a user in the database.
What is the most reliable way to determine the last LSN of a database? I've looked in sys.database_files to no avail. I've also looked in msdb.dbo.backupset which is accurate but only based on backups already performed not the current state of the database.

Hello,I'm using tableadapters in VWD 2005 Express to link our ASP.NET application to a SQL Server 2000 database. Initially, I used Database Explorer to drop tables into the DataSet object, which picks up the owner of the tables from the database.Recently, we had to change the owner of all objects in the database, including tables and stored procedures. When we run our application it chokes on stored procedures because the owner of the SP's has changed. My question is: how can I update tables and tableadapters in the DataSet to reflect the change in owner, without having to recreate everything in DataSet?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi,I just transferred my website and database (SQL 2000) to a new host who's SQL Manager doesn't support the previous username I had for the database.The previous owner of database tables etc was Database_master and now I want to change it to just Master.Please advise! Someone else designed the website for me, and honestly I have just some basic knowledge of databases and such.I would appreciate help and if possible with detailed steps.Many thanks in advance,Isje
View 2 Replies View RelatedI've got a GridView on my webform bound to a SQLDataSource (called sqlZKEWILL). Works fine as long as I hard-code the "dbo" database owner in the Select statement, as in:
select EXIDV, Carton_Count, Carton_Total, dbo.ZINSPECTION where EXIDV = @CartonID
The problem is that I need the database owner name to be dynamic. This will be a parameter that I read from another SQL table. For example, I'm doing this:
Select USERID, DatabaseOwner from tblUsers where UserID = 'Kimm'
I need to take the DatabaseOwner from this second Select statement, and use it as part of that first select statement.
On the CodeBehind page, I tried replacing "dbo" with the Database Owner field (which I saved in a session variable) with the following code:
Private Sub gvLineItems_DataBinding(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles gvLineItems.DataBinding
sqlZKEWILL.SelectCommand = sqlZKEWILL.SelectCommand.Replace("dbo", Session("DatabaseOwner").ToString.Trim)
End Sub
But I am still getting the error message: "Invalid object name: dbo.ZINSPECTION". It doesn't seem to recognize that I've replaced "dbo" with a different value.
Any thoughts on getting this to work would be appreciated.
Hello,
I'm trying to access the Database Diagram of a sql database I created but am getting the error:
"The database does not have a valid dbo user"
I also noticed that my NT group user was incorrect and this is the name being used as the owner of the database. How do i change this?
Thanks

View 1 Replies View RelatedOur web application requires that when a new Organization is created,aseparate Database is to be created for the corresponding organization,so that each organization remains a separate entity with theircorresponding employees(This is our clients requirement, so that theycan later provide the backup of the database if the organizationdecides to move out). And for that what we intend to do is restore thebackup of database which already has the objects created in it.So weintend to restore a database for the new organization from the webpage.We are using SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition and theauthentication is SQL Server authentication, and the 'xy' login hasbeen assigned to the 'dbcreator' fixed server role only(This may benot relevant but just in case, the 'xy' login has been assigned'db_owner' fixed db rolein the main db. The web application uses this login to connect to thedatabase). When a new Organization is created, the database owner ofthe new DB should be xy, and the user mapping for the login to the'NewOrg' database should be 'dbo'. But in this case after restoringthe databasetemplate using the SQLSMO from the application(same thing happensafter restoring the database from query analyzer using the xy login)there is no user mapping to be seen and we are not able to connect tothe 'NewOrg' database using the xy login.I think most will suggest to use 'exec sp_changedbowner' to updatethe dbo, but for this we need sysadmin privileges, which we do nothave for the xy login.Please suggest the best way to go about this particularscenario(currently we are running the object creation script aftercreating the database but this is time consuming, so pls suggest onlydatabase restore method) and the also please suggest if any otherfixed server roles can be used without compromising security. Seemsthis is a design issue, pls also suggest if this post is to be made insome other appropriate groups.Thanks,MPL
View 6 Replies View RelatedI get this error when I try to view the database diagram. This is strange because it was about two weeks ago that I created and edited the database diagram. What is wrong with my login now as compared to when I did those edits?
The error suggests to use the ALTER AUTHORIZATION to change to a valid login. I am using windows authentication. If my login (the database ownere) is not the valid login then who is?
And what are the database diagram support objects that it suggests I install. I never heard of them, and where are they? Why didn't I need to install anything special when I worked on the diagrams two weeks ago?
Error message:
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express
------------------------------
Database diagram support objects cannot be installed because this database does not have a valid owner. To continue, first use the Files page of the Database Properties dialog box or the ALTER AUTHORIZATION statement to set the database owner to a valid login, then add the database diagram support objects.

Hello,
I restored and renamed a client database from a backup file to my laptop (both SQL Express 2005) and noticed that no owner had been assigned. I set the db-owner to SA. This database will replace a local version of the same database that was created on my laptop. (The customer has entered data...)
When I start the dataset configuration wizard in VS2005 all tables appear twice in the list. Once with the original name and once with the prefix dbo. For example: Customer and dbo.Customer.
The tables with the dbo. prefix are marked with a Red Cross in the checkbox. Hovering over them display the error message: "Element .. in the dataset references an object missing from the database. "
The tables without the dbo. prefix are not marked. When I mark these tables VS2005 indicates that the table will be renamed to Customer1. The same issue applies to all the views in the database.
Is there a way to solve this problem without having to recreate the entire dataset? I'd rather not do that cause I added some queries to the dataset and they will be lost and have to be recreated.
Any help will be appreciated.
hi,
on 1 of my servers (actually, the dev. server I have setup up here at home), I must included the database owner everytime I select something or make a db call.
for example
select T.foo from K inner join T on T.id = K.id
must actualy be written like:
select dbo.T.foo from dbo.K inner join dbo.T on dbo.T.id = dbo.K.id
or else it wont work
what did I do wrong for this database owner thing to be a "must" when writing queries on this server.
spec:
sql 2000 sp4
I am getting this error while selecting the properties of one database.
Property Owner is not available for Database '[TEST]'. This property may not exist for this object, or may not be retrievable due to insufficient access rights. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)

Ok, I'm doing a football database for fixtures and stuff. The problem I am having is that in a fixture, there is both a home, and an away team. The tables as a result are something like this:
-------
Fixture
-------
fix_id
fix_date
fix_played
----
Team
----
tem_id
tem_name
-----------
TeamFixture
-----------
fix_id
tem_id
homeorawayteam
goals
It's not exactly like that, but you get the point. The question is, can I do a fixture query which results in one record per fixture, showing both teams details. The first in a hometeam field and the second in an away team field.
Fixture contains the details about the fixture like date and fixture id and has it been played
Team contains team info like team id, name, associated graphic
TeamFixture is the table which links the fixture to it's home and away team.
TeamFixture exists to prevent a many to many type relationship.
Make sense? Sorry if this turns out to be really easy, just can't get my head around it at the mo!
Problem: I can add 4 items to a SQL 7.0 database but I need to redirect the user if all 4 items exist in the same Record elsewhere in the Database.
Clearly I need some kind of statement like "if category1 = var1 AND category2 = var 2 AND..." but don't know where to put it.
Code:
strSQL = "SELECT * FROM tblUserQuarter"
Set objRS = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
objRS.Open strSQL, objConn,adOpenStatic , adLockOptimistic

objRS("Quarter") = Request.Form("Quarter")
objRS("ID") = Request.Form("ID")

objRS.Update
objRS.Close
Set objRS = Nothing
objConn.Close

Hi There
I am trying to establish the date a database was last used.
At first i checked out sp_helpfile and sysfiles to see if there was a date last modified, i also tried using xp_cmdshell to check the date on the actual .mdf or .ldf on the o/s but if the file has not grown the date will be the create date.
I need to establish the date a database was last used, either the last time someone logged into it or the last time any sort of command was run against the database, i cannot use sysprocesses as there are no connections to the database, so i need to determine the last time there actually were any processes run against this database.
And i need to use tsql, checking audit logs etc is not viable, can anyone help ?
Thanx

Hi,
I use Sql server express 2005.I have two databases: db1 and db2.I use Studio Management. I connect with my administrator account 'admin'.
1) When i rightclick on db1 (and also on db2) and i take the properties / general, i see for both db: owner = servernameadmin .When i take properties / Files, i see for db1: owner = servernameadmin , but for db2, it remains empty.why and does it mean that db2 has no owner? But then, why do i see in properties / general : owner = servernameadmin?
2) i want to make 'admin' owner of db2 (for creating a database diagram), so in properties / Files, i click on the button with three dots.A windows "select database owner" appears, i click on button 'browse', but then all i see is:built-in administartorsbuilt-in userssa...
Whatever i choose (e.g; built-in administrators), i get the message: an entity of database cannot be owned by a role, group ... error 15353).
Why do i not get the account 'admin' in the browse windows and how to make 'admin' owner of db2?
Thanks for helpT.
Hi,
it has to do with my unfamiliarity with creating users and dbo privileges. I'm trying to grant access to an outside vendor to import their latest version of a database. I set them up with a user account that had db_owner privileges, however when they ran the dts process it copied all the data as new tables rather than overwriting the existing tables and the new tables were all associated with the user is created instead of dbo user. What do I need to do to facilitate this process?
I am in the process of cleaning up the security on one of our production databases. SA is already the owner of the database.
On this SQL server, there is a login that has access to this database that needs to be removed. When I uncheck this users access to this database I receive the following error message:
"Error 15183. The user owns objects in the database and cannot be dropped".
How can i find out what objects this logins has ownership of and how can I change the ownership of these objects to SA?
Thanks in advance,
Philip Talavera
Is there a way to add an existing user as an "owner" of a database programmatically using SQL or a SP?
Thanks.
I am using SQL Server 2005 and I was having a problem with the owner of a particular database. When I go into Database Diagrams for the database I get:
"Database diagram support objects cannot be installed because this database does not have a valid owner. To continue, first use the Files page of the Database Properties dialog box or the ALTER AUTHORIZATION statement to set the database owner to a valid login, then add the database diagram support objects."
So I tried some different things (assigning different users as the owner) I was only able to assign one user as the owner (someone that is no longer working here), then I deleted that user (oops.). Now I still don't have an owner assigned AND I can't get into the database properties because I don't have permissions.
Any help would be appreciated.
