Case Of The Vanishing Password

Apr 11, 2008



Hi,
I have been breaking my head over this for a day now.
I created a new OleDB connection Manager
Choose SQL server Authentication
Give the user name and password, choose Save password
Click Test Connection, the connection is successfull
I reopen the OleDB connection manager, Password is gone and when i click test connection it doesnt obviously work

I have tried all protection levels for the package, yet none of them have helped.
Kindly help me with this issue.

Regards,
Suraj

Vanishing Parallelism

Jul 23, 2005

I have a function that returns a table of information aboutresidential properties. The main input is a property type anda location in grid coordinates. Because I want to get only acertain number of properties, ordered by distance from thelocation, I get the properties from a cursor ordered by distance,and stop when the number is reached. (Not really possible todetermine the distance analytically in advance.) The cursor alsoinvolves joins to a table of grid coordinates vs. postcodes (theproperties are identified mainly by postcode), and to a tablethat maps the input property type into what types to search for.Opening the cursor typically results in the creation of six toeight parallel threads, and takes approx 1 second, which is abouthalf of the total time for the function.Recently the main property table grew from 4 million to 6.5million records, and suddenly the parallelism is lost. Takingthe identical code and executing it as a script gives parallelism.Turning it into a SP that inserts into a #temp table and thenselects * from that table as the last statement also givesparallelism. But when it's in the form of a function, there isonly one thread -- and the execution time has gone from ~2 secto ~8 sec. I updated the statistics on the table, but stillno parallelism.I could turn it into a SP easily enough, but that would involvea change to the C++ program that calls it, which takes a whileto get through the pipeline. In the meantime, is there some wayto induce the optimizer to use parallelism? It used to.

Database Tables Etc Vanishing?

Dec 15, 2005

Hi

I create a database in SQL Express using the Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express, with tables etc.

I connect to it from my VB Express .NET application. Any changes I make, like adding a new table from VB .NET Express causes all the tables to 'vanish' when viewing the Database in the Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express, the database is still listed there. Does anyone know why?

Also it cannot be edited there again it gives an error?

Also if I create a DB in VB .NET Express the database does not appear in the Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express, which makes backups etc not available. It is saved to a drive location, but not the C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLData location, any ideas what is happening?

Regards.

SQL Server Agent Job Will Not Retain Package Password (encrypt Sensitive With Password)

Apr 1, 2008

I 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, 2007

I 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?

Case Insensitivity Is On Server Wide: Tables Render Case Sensative...

Jan 6, 2005

Hello:

I have created an SQL server table in the past on a server that was all case sensative. Over time I found out that switching to a server that is not case sensative still caused my data to become case sensative. I read an article that said you should rebuild your master database then re-create your tables. So after rebuilding the master database, a basic restore would not be sufficient? I would have to go and manually re-create every single table again?

Any suggestions?

Remember My Password Is Forgetting Password

Mar 11, 2008

On 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?

Thanks,

Brian

We need to install CI database on CS server, and there are some issueswith stored procedures.Database works and have CI collation (Polish_CI_AS). Server hascoresponding CS collation (Polish_CS_AS). Most queries and proceduresworks but some does not :-(We have table Customer which contains field CustomerID.Query "SELECT CUSTOMERID FROM CUSTOMER" works OK regardless ofcharacter case (we have table Customer not CUSTOMER)Following TSQL generate error message that must declare variable @id(in lowercase)DECLARE @ID INT (here @ID in uppercase)SELECT @id=CustomerID FROM Customer WHERE .... (here @id in lowercase)I know @ID is not equal to @id in CS, but database is CI and tablenames Customer and CUSTOMER both works. This does not work forvariables.I suppose it is tempdb collation problem (CS like a server collationis). I tried a property "Identifier Case Sensitivity" for myconnection, but it is read only and have value 8 (Mixed) by default -this is OK I think.DO I MISS SOMETHING ????

Problem Using Result From CASE In Another CASE Statement

Nov 5, 2007

I have a view where I'm using a series of conditions within a CASE statement to determine a numeric shipment status for a given row. In addition, I need to bring back the corresponding status text for that shipment status code.

Previously, I had been duplicating the CASE logic for both columns, like so:




Code Block...beginning of SQL view...
shipment_status =
CASE
[logic for condition 1]
THEN 1
WHEN [logic for condition 2]
THEN 2
WHEN [logic for condition 3]
THEN 3
WHEN [logic for condition 4]
THEN 4
ELSE 0
END,
shipment_status_text =
CASE
[logic for condition 1]
THEN 'Condition 1 text'
WHEN [logic for condition 2]
THEN 'Condition 2 text'
WHEN [logic for condition 3]
THEN 'Condition 3 text'
WHEN [logic for condition 4]
THEN 'Condition 4 text'
ELSE 'Error'
END,
...remainder of SQL view...






This works, but the logic for each of the case conditions is rather long. I'd like to move away from this for easier code management, plus I imagine that this isn't the best performance-wise.

This is what I'd like to do:



Code Block
...beginning of SQL view...
shipment_status =
CASE
[logic for condition 1]
THEN 1
WHEN [logic for condition 2]
THEN 2
WHEN [logic for condition 3]
THEN 3
WHEN [logic for condition 4]
THEN 4
ELSE 0
END,


shipment_status_text =

CASE shipment_status

WHEN 1 THEN 'Condition 1 text'

WHEN 2 THEN 'Condition 2 text'

WHEN 3 THEN 'Condition 3 text'

WHEN 4 THEN 'Condition 4 text'

ELSE 'Error'

END,
...remainder of SQL view...


This runs as a query, however all of the rows now should "Error" as the value for shipment_status_text.

Is what I'm trying to do even currently possible in T-SQL? If not, do you have any other suggestions for how I can accomplish the same result?

Thanks,

Jason

Equivalent To MySQL's Password() Function? (was MySQL To SQL Server And Password())

Mar 3, 2005

I 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.

Case Sensitivity When A User Enters Data Into The Database. How To Deal With Case Sensitivity.

Sep 6, 2007

I am working on a C#/asp.net web application. The application has a text box that allows a user to enter a name. The name is then saved to the database.
Before the name is saved to the database, I need to be able to check if the name already exists in the database. The problem  here is that what if the name is in the database as "JoE ScMedLap" and somoene enters the name as "Joe Schmedlap" which already exists in the database,but just differs in case.
In other words how do deal with case sensitiviy issues.

Password And ID

Jun 28, 2007

I am building a website in Dreamweaver. I have tried and tried to get a connection to SQL 2005. Everything works on the web except the stuff that requires the use of my SQL tables. With OPEN_Conn ="Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=localhost;Initial Catalog=master" I get an error at the bottom of my page saying this:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '80004005'
Invalid authorization specification
When I add a password and ID to the string the pages become very slow and I get this error:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '80004005'
[DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
Using windows authentication when logging into SQL Server doesn't have a user id or password so maybe I just don't know what to put there. I have tried a mix of all the passwords and ID's I use on this computer. Do I even have to have the user ID and password and if not how do I fix the first error? All help appreciated.

Sa Password

Sep 14, 2001

Is there anyway to "get in the backdoor" if you have installed SQLserver and assigned sa a password (no other users are set up with admin rights) and then forget what the password is.

In the online doc it says you have to reinstall SQL server....isn't there any other way to get in??? For instance in SYBASE you can log on to the console and "go thru the backdoor" and issue a command from there.

Please advise.
