We could use charindex, substring and len to cut the 4 parts of the ip and rebuild it in the right format.
Starts with
SELECT
CHARINDEX('.',mycolumn)
,LEFT(mycolumn, CHARINDEX('.',mycolumn) - 1) as part_four_of_ip
,CHARINDEX('.', SUBSTRING(mycolumn,CHARINDEX('.',mycolumn) - 1),len(mycolumn)
as position_of_second_dot
........ and so on.....
This will cause an awful long code. How to shorten that code?
I have an installation of SQL Server Express 2005 installed on a Windows 2003 server. Through the forums on the board I have been able to turn on and make sure that port 1433 and port 1434 are turned on and listening. However, both ports show that they are listening on IP address 0.0.0.0. and I need for port 1433 to either listen on the server's main IP address or at the very least on 127.0.0.1. I have set them to enabled in the Configuration manager but they still don't appear to be listening on either of those IP addresses. Could some one tell me if there's another configuration change I might need to make?
I'm usning xp_sendmail to send e-mails to customers. In the From filed of e-mail it shows the user id which runs this process. Can I mask or change this like FROM: Customer service
Hi all,I have recently changed IP addresses on my MS SQL cluster (the new IPaddresses belongs to a different network). Both physical node's IPaddresses and resource's IP addresses have been changed.Everything seems to work fine. The cluster is up and respondingnormally. The resources failover to another node when needed correctly.However, I have noticed that the time it takes for the resource tofailover to another node is much longer than in the past (before IPaddresses change). I have noticed that "Network Name" is the resourcetype that causes the delay. Could you please advise if there issomething that I overlooked and needs to be changed.updated as well, sothat groups fail over faster?Thanks,Aleu
In our lab we have 2 clustered instance of Sql server 2018R2 as follows
Virtual Server Name IP SqlVir 10.1.1.6 SqlVirDr 10.1.1.12
The Data is SqlVir is replicated manually every day to SqlVirDr.
We had to change the Virtual Server name of SqlVirDr to SqlVir so that all dot net applications accessing SqlVir could continue to access the database without changing the application string.
For that purpose I deleted the computer name SqlVir from the domain and its IP 10.1.1.6 from DNS. Then I went to the failover cluster manager of SqlVIrDr right clicked the Sql services selected the properties and changed the DNS name from SqlVirDr to SqlVir.The applications then could access the data.However when I changed the network IP address from 10.1.1.12 to 10.1.1.6 the Sql services was found to be down.
Perhaps the procedure I followed in deleting the computer name from domain and the IP from DNS was wrong.What exactly is the steps that I should follow to achieve the above objective.
I just moved our SSRS server from one machine to another. It was sending our report emails from a service account. So when my end users get the emailed report it was from a service account (reports@blah.com) .
Now that I moved the DB to another server - the reports get emailed successfully - but they are being sent from my email address!
I have checked the rsreportserver config file. I also checked in the report server smtp setup and they both show the service account. I even checked the subscription owners and accounts.
SSRS is using my account, but I can't find where it's getting it from. Where else can I look?
We have an Sql Server 2008R2 Clustered production instance by name 'ProdVir' configured in 2 nodes(Active-passive) withWIndows Server 2008 R2. We also have another clustered instance as disaster recovery by name 'VirDr' configured again in another 2 nodes of Windows Server 2008 R2. Every day morning there is mainatenace plan which backups all the database in production and another maintenace plan in the disaster recovery server 'VirDr' which restores the backups into the VirDr instance.
I would like to know that in an eventuality of a disaster in the clustered production instance of 'ProdVir'. could we rename the the instance VirDr(meant for disaster recovery) to ProdVir and also change the Ip addresses accordingly so that the application programs do not have to change the details for the datasource in the connection strings.
IF you need to change the IP Address of a SQL Server Failover Cluster instance, here is the steps:
1. Open up Failover Cluster manager. 2. Expand the MS Cluster Instance that your SQL Cluster instance resides on. 3. Expand Services and applications. 4. Select the SQL Server Service. 5. In the main window pane (Middle Screen), you should see your SQL Server Cluster name, expand the plus to the left of it. 6. Under your SQL Server Cluster name, you should now see an 'IP address' section, right click on it and go to properties. 7. In the properties pane, you can change your IP address by entering a static IP.....or assigning a DHCP enabled IP.

PS. IF THE CLIENT IS LOCAL, I HAVE NO ISSUE OPENING THE DATABASE. I DO NEED TO OPEN THE DB FROM FROM CLIENTS.
I am asking about a virtual IP for SQL Server, is there a way we can assign a different IP to SQL Server other than the server's(host) IP address? like the same what we do in a clustered env.
I have a SSIS Package which I developed on my own my database server.
But now the package is to deployed on 3-4 different computers pointing it to different databases.
I do not want to change the connection string for each and every instance because in future there may be more number of instances running.I tried using the Configuration file and add that file in to the configuration window but that also did not work.Please can anybody help me?
I am looking to dynamically change the connection string in my SSIS package, to avoid changing the connection string each time I want to run in different environments.
I've recently uploaded my website, http://www.bigredsongbus.com, to my host. Unfortunately, they don't support the use of SQL Server Express. So, I've purchased an addon through my host - discountasp.net. I've attached my database file to their server, now all that I need to do is to change the connection string in my .config file so that it points to the SQL Server. I don't know how to do this. Any help, please?Jeffrey Way
I know that connecttimeout and commandtimeout are separate entities. Is it possible to change the default command timeout value by changing the connection string? I need to increase the command timeout and want to know if I can do it without changing my code and rebuilding my ASP.NET 1.1 web app. Thanks in advance. -- ZLA
I have a query which runs exactly as I want it to. Let's say it returns this in a table:
IDNumber 123 212 312
I want to change (find and replace?) all the number 12s in the 'Number' column for a string. I want to change the 12s to the word: HelloWorld. I don't want to update the table, merely the table that is being returned in the query.
HiWhen we installed SqlServer2000 we left the default collation name(Sql_Latin1_General_CPI_CI_AS).The user defined databases we created afterwards were defined with adifferent collation name in order to be able to accept the character setwe use, Hebrew.We are looking into switching DTSs that we use to copy data from ourmain system , that uses an Ingres database, into OSQL scripts. Althoughthe DTSs successfully copy the Hebrew letters when I copy data with OSQLit comes over as jibberish.After looking into the matter I came to the conclusion that while DTSrefers to specific databases and uses the destination database'scollation name , OSQL refers to the remote server and destination serverand therefore uses the collation name of the server and not of thedatabase. In order for it to successfully copy the Hebrew I need tochange the default collation name of the installation.Is "rebuild master" the way to do such a thing ? (this is a productionserver so we are wary of doing a "rebuild master")Has anyone else run into similar problems when transfering data betweenservers using OSQL ?ThanksDavid Greenberg
did VARCHAR(20) SELECT top 10 CAST(did AS INT) FROM table Msg 245, Level 16, State 1, Line 3
Conversion failed when converting the varchar value 'cht6p575l7ry61k1npt' to data type int.
SELECT CONVERT(INT, did) FROM table
Msg 245, Level 16, State 1, Line 5
Conversion failed when converting the varchar value 'cht6p575l7ry61k1npt' to data type int.I found a SQL Function that removes all the alphabetic characters from the string and just leaves the integers.
This seems to be a rather old problem (http://www.themssforum.com/SQLServer/Does-empty/) but I couldn't find an answer yet.
The problem is: I have two tables t1 and t2 where t1 is a staging area of t2. t1: (id int not null, phone varchar(30)) t2: (id int not null, phone varchar(30))
Data in t1: (1, '') <- empty string Data in t2: (1, ' ') <- a blank
Comparing t1.phone with t2.phone results in equality which in my opinion isn't correct.
The question ist: How can I change the behaviour of SQL-Server to result in inequality so that the change in my staging table is detected correctly?
I have searched every post and tried every connection string there but can't figure out how to connect to my database on my remote server. I am using Visual Developer 2005 Express Edition in C# and uploading it to a Windows server running asp.net 2.0. The domain has not resolved yet.
I am so new to this and have followed many tutorials step by step but none of them address this issue. They just show how to upload it to the server.
Do I need to use the SQL server provided by my host or can the database stay in the App_Data folder?
When I debug a page I get the <customErrors mode="Off"/> error message even thought I have already set it in my remote web.config file which may be causing problems itself:
Hi Folks ...Question for everyone that I have not been able to figure out. I have an application that is spread across tiers:SQL Connection defined in Web.Config file that connects to SQLServer database.DAL layer created references SQL Connection in Web.Config file - have noticed this copies the connection string information to the local properties for each TableAdapter that is defined in the DAL layer.BLL Layer that references Table Adapters declared in the DAL layer.When the web site is called, the link will provide an encoded id.Sample call to website: http://www.mysamplesite.com/default.aspx?company=AE2837FG28F7B327Based on the encoded id that is passed to the site, I need to switch the connection string to use different databases on the backend.Sample connection string: Data Source=localhost;Initial Catalog=dbSystem_LiveCorp1;User ID=client;Password=live2006 I would need to change Initial Catablog to the following:Data Source=localhost;Initial Catalog=dbSystem_LiveCorp196;User ID=client;Password=live2006How do I do this and have the connection string reflected in all of the Table Adapters that I have created in the DAL layer - currently 100+ Table Adapters have been defined.As we gain new clients, I need to be able to have each clients information located in a different database within SQL Server. Mandated - I have no choice in this requirement. Being as I don't want to have to recreate the DAL for several dozen clients and maintain that whenever I make a change to the DAL to then replicate across multiple copies. There has to be a way to dynamically alter the SQLConnection and have it recognized across all DAL TableAdapters.I'm developing with MS-Visual Studio 2005 - VB. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks ...David Any day above ground is a good day ...
This is because a date of 04/16/2014 will show as 160416 in the first part of the field I need to parse it out of, thus becoming 04162014.
From there I then need to convert this "date" into a legitimate SQL datetime type, so that I can then run a DATEDIFF to compare it to when the record was actually entered, which is a separate field in the table, and already in datetime format.
When I use the below statement, I am getting the message that, "Conversion failed when converting date and/or time from character string."
I have my SSIS package that reads elements from a Sharepoint list to a SQL table. The data type of my source is string and the destination is integer. The source column can sometimes be an empty string "" (not a required column)
Which expression to use and "where" or "what" SSIS component can I add this expression to? Like I know that I can use the "Conditional Split" to filter the data so for my expression which component can I use?
One of my excel 2013 power pivot report was migrated from old server to new server after migration i changed the excel power pivot connection string to connect with new server but the workbook connections is still taking the old connection string of old server and there is no option of changing workbook connection string .
I am able to edit the powerpivot connection but workbook connections are not getting updated they are still taking old server connection string.
