Changing Schema Name And Making A Local Copy
Jan 24, 2008
I created my database on a remote server. It now has lots of tables and stored procedures
When I created it, the server created a schema named for me, the user, so all my tables and stored procedures are named like johndoe.tablename.
I would like to rename the schema to something less personal more professional.
Can it be as simple as "ALTER SCHEMA johndoe RENAME professional"?
Also, I would like to create a local copy of the databse, so I can develop offline, without the 2 second delay.
SQL Server Management Studio Express lets me generate scripts, which I have been using to make backups.
Can I use the script file to recreate the database on my local machine?
Thanks

I have been reading up on how replicating schema changes work, but I must be missing something. When I configured a database for replication, it added a rowguid column to each table. This I understand.
I want to test making a schema change and replicating that change. For example, I tried to add a column to an existing table. When I tried to save the table i get the following error:
"Error validating the default for column rowguid".
"- Unable to modify table.
It is invalid to drop the default constraint on the rowguid column that is used by merge replication.
The DDL operation failed inside merge DDL replication manipulation.
The transaction ended in the trigger. The batch has been aborted."
So, what am I missing? Do i need to drop the rowguid column, add the new column, and then re-add the rowguid column?
Many thanks...

Hi,
I set up DB mirror between a primary (SQL1) and a mirror (SQL2); no witness. I have a problem when I issue command:
alter database DBmirrorTest
Set Partner = N'TCP://SQL2.mycom.com:5022';
go
The error message is:
The remote copy of database "DBmirrorTest" has not been rolled forward to a point in time that is encompassed in the local copy of the database log.
I have the steps below prior to the command. (Note that both servers' service accounts use the same domain account. The domain account I login to do db mirror setup is a member of the local admin group.)
1. backup database DBmirrorTest on SQL1
2. backup database log
3. copy db and log backup files to SQL2
4. restore db with norecovery
5. restore log with norecovery
6. create endpoints on both SQL1 and SQL2
CREATE ENDPOINT [Mirroring]
STATE=STARTED
AS TCP (LISTENER_PORT = 5022, LISTENER_IP = ALL)
FOR DATA_MIRRORING (ROLE = PARTNER)
7. enable mirror on mirror server SQL2
:connect SQL2
alter database DBmirrorTest
Set Partner = N'TCP://SQL1.mycom.com:5022';
go
8. Enable mirror on primary server SQL1
:connect SQL1
alter database DBmirrorTest
Set Partner = N'TCP://SQL2.mycom.com:5022';
go
This is where I got the error.
The remote copy of database "DBmirrorTest" has not been rolled forward to a point in time that is encompassed in the local copy
Thanks for any help,
KT

Hi,
I am using a local variable to capture datetime and then select records from another table by making use of the above local variable result. But the query is running too slow when I use the local variable
declare @a smalldatetime
select @a=last_run_time from job_status
where job_des='sample'
SELECT * FROM History
WHERE CHANGE_DATE> @a
Instead of the above select statement if I use the below statement it is returning results quickly. Can someone help me in tuning the above query.
SELECT * FROM History
WHERE CHANGE_DATE> '5/23/2008 6:22:00.000 AM '
History table has columns ( case number, change_date, change_desc). I have two indexes defined on the above table one is on case_number and the other on change_date.I tried using force index but still the query is running slow.
will there be any difference if use dynamic sql ?

I need to make a backup of a table so that if I mess it up I can put the data back to where I started...
I am going to insert some new rows and update values in some existing rows. So before I do this and find out I messed it up...how do I make a copy of Table A as Table B?
I would actually like to make a copy to table B, then run my changes into B, make sure all is correct, and then transfer the revised data from B over to table A replacing its data. What approach would be best here to accomplish this?
Thanks

I have a 6.5 db that I want to create a copy of, I can move it to eithera machine running 7 or 2000. I am more used to doing this in Oracle sopls bear with me...I don't want to have any downtime on the 6.5 db, so I'm thinking perhapsimport is the best way to go? I am assuming that 6.5 backups are notcomaptible with either 7 or 2000 restore, or I'd go that route.The database in question is fairly simple, pretty well just tables fullof data, no stored procs...suggestions?TIA

I allowed the SQL Destination Editor to design my table from Output of
a flat text file. Everything was varchar(50), but that was cool,
because I got to see the data in the new staging tables it created. I
went back and tweaked the data types and sizes for various columns to
be more appropriate through the table designer in SQL Server Management
Studio.
After doing so I get an error trying to edit the package, specifically
parts of the destination in the data flow. I get the error "An error
occurred due to no connection. A connection is required when requesting
metadata... blah blah". I pick the TEST CONNECTION in the Connection
Manager, and it works fine.
I am sure this is probably a basic issue of mechanics of use that I
don't yet know because I am completely new to SSIS. Can someone please
provide a hint, perhaps what I did wrong, and also, if you can see it
how to redeem the error. Thanks!

For development purpose i use DEVLOPMENT environment on oracle but for unit testing i have to use QA or Some other Schema. when i use DEVELOPMENT Schema in ole db destination, tables are accessed under Schema name eg. "DEVELOPMENT"."EMPLOYEE", but when i m chenging schema name to QA table names are not changing as "QA"."EMPLOYEE". Data Flow Task is pushing the data to DEVELOPMENT environment only.
Can Anyone suggest me any remedy for it ?
Or this is one more BUG in SQL Server 2005.

Hi,
What do I need to do in order to make a copy of a schema. For example lets say my database has 3 schemas - Test, Production and Staging. I want to make an exact copy of Production. ie. complete copy - all objects - tables, views, stored procs and also all the data and probably call it Production-New. Now we have 4 schemas in the database.
This needs to be initiated from the app that the user is currently using. Is there any built in support (TSQL functions/commands/Sps ?) for such an activity ? and if not what may be the direction that I need to look at to take this further ?
Overall I'm looking at being able to take a quick snapshot of a schema and start using that. I must mention that the volume of data will be substancial and the solution devised should be able to do it rather quickly - The user clicks a button in order to take a snap shot. So the wait time has to be reasonable.
Any suggestions/ideas will be great.
Thanks -
Avinash

Using a query like
"ALTER SCHEMA TestSchema TRANSFER dbo.table1"
I can easily move "Table1", with schema "dbo", into schema TestSchema. But I can't see how to do it using only the GUI tools provided in Management Studio. Any ideas?
TIA,

Changed stored procedure
[dbo].[spLogonName @pNewLogonName varchar(60) AS
SELECT * FROM .dbo.tblUser Where vcLogonName = @pNewLogonName
to
[dbo].[spLogonName @pNewLogonName varchar(60) AS
DECLARE @Local_pNewLogonName varchar(60)
SET @Local_pNewLogonName = @pNewLogonName
SELECT * FROM .dbo.tblUser Where vcLogonName = @Local_pNewLogonName
and started getting this error on the web page.
ADODB.Recordset error '800a0cb3'
Current Recordset does not support updating. This may be a limitation of the provider, or of the selected locktype.
Does anyone know why this is happening? Nothing on the site has changed. If I change the sp back the errors go away. I'm trying to use local variables in all SP to avoid the slowness that can happen when using the parameter varibles.

Hi,
Can anyone help me to figure out how to generate the SQL Script that can produce the same database schema with the existing database?
I have tried the "Generate SQL Script" tool. However, it only creates the object such as tables, stored procedures, triggers and etc. I still have to create the database first in order to run that script. I have an existing database that has a 2.7 GB size (let's called this ABC Database). In a different server, I would like to create the same database with the ABC DB without having to restore the ABC DB. Bottom line, I would like to see the script creates the database along with all stored procedures, triggers and the size of the database will be 2.7 GB. Is it possible?
Thank you very much!

I want to insert records into A1 and using the identity column of newly inserted record, i want to insert the record into A2. Please guide me how can i do this with SSIS.

Hi,
I am trying to test a replication or at least get the feel for it on my local copy before I set it up on the real server.
Can I do that by setting my local database as the publisher as well as the subscriber?
I am getting an error message but I am wondering if there are any settings I can change to make this work. Or any other ideas of how to see the replication tool before actually doing it live?
Error message:
"Server 'MyComputerName' is neither a Publisher nor a Distributor, or you do not have permission to access replication functionality on this server.
I might add that I am not only new to the project but also new to MS SQL Server.
Thank you!

Hi all,
I'm having a problem right now. I'm trying to create an offline copy of a database(live) in my local machine. The database is maintained in a different server machine and I want a copy of the particular DB as an offline copy.
The problem is there's DTS feature in SQL Server 2000 but I don't find any such tool in SQL Server 2005 edition. Can anyone please guide me on how to do this process?
Thanks & Regards,

Hi and thanks in advance for your help.
I have a dilemma and I need some expert help with this. I am trying to make a copy of a remote Database and then replicated the DB and it's contents on my local machine so I can build a test site to run data with. I tried to remot into the server machine but I guess that feature is not allowed by the honest of the remote machine. Since I build on my local machine and would like to be able to test data on my local machine.... I would like to copy the remote DB to my local computer and then I can run my test app on my local server. The version of SQL on the remote machine is SQL Express 2005 and I have SQL 2005 on my machine. Please give me how to accomplish this please.

We currently have a PPTP connection set up for our developers toaccess our development SQL server through a VPN tunnel. When theyneed to copy tables up to the dev SQL from their local machine theysimply do a DTS copy.However, we are now moving to a thin client solution where they willbe working on a terminal server. They will have access to thedevelopment SQL servers and SQL tools such as EM and QA. However,they will not have access to their local SQL server and, therefore,will not be able to directly perform DTS copies. We have exploredseveral possibilities such as exporting tables to a .csv or .mdb fileand then importing them on the development SQL server but this is notideal because things are lost in that process (e.g. primary keys,field names, data types, etc.)My question is this: Is there a way to export and then import SQLtables without losing dependent objects such as primary keys and datatypes in the process? If any of you are working with a similarsituation I would really like to hear how your remote users copyobjects from their remote location to your SQL servers.

I have installed the Workstation components on my local PC, which also contains VS 2005 and SQL Express. I installed the WS components so that I could run the full blown version of SQL Management Studio from my PC, to remove SQL 2005 servers.
I tried to update the Workstation components to SP1, but the SP1 package stops at the Setup Support Files, step and terminates claiming the package does not support SQL Express. I realize the package is not intended for Express, I simply need to update Management studio.
I tried running the Post SP1 Tools hotfix and it complains that it will not update SP0 of the tools.
I have successfully updated Express to SP1 and applied the Post hotfixes as well. Is there any way to patch just Management studio on a system with Express installed?
Thank,
Jim

hello all,
I am using vb.net in windows form. I have made a module which is connected to sql server 2000.
Now, I want to have a fresh copy of the remote database of SQL Server at my local computer and whenever there is change in remote database(insertions,deletion or updation), my local database copy may gets synchronized(i.e changes get reflected in this local copy).
Can any one help me? If it is possibel by using Vb.net code, it is very well, and if there is some Sql Server wizard that can help me do that, please reply to me.
Thanks in advance.

I lost my database on my pc as I format my hard drive. Now, how I can get a copy of my ms sql server database from my hosting to work with my local pc? I need to have a local copy so that I can develop my site without internet connection. For your information, I used Hostforlife.eu hosting service. I have searched and tried many methods to do it, but no luck yet. For example, I created a backup on Hostforlife.eu and restore backup file on my pc, but nothing happens. Then I created a new database, and re-created its structure same as the one on Hostforlife, then I used the import wizard to import data from them to my pc. Again, nothing happens.

hello,
I have several tables that have guids as their primary keys and the tables are related as follows:
Table1 - primary key = ServiceNo (Guid), Filter Key = CampaignNo
Table2 - primary key = CostBasisNo (Guid), Foreign Key = ServiceNo (from Table1)
Table3 - primary key = UserId, Foreign Key = ServiceNo (from table1)
Table4 - primary key = SourceServiceNo (Foreign Key from Table1), MemberServiceNo(Foreign Key from Table1)
what I need to do is copy all records from Table1 where CampaignNo = @CampaignNo and insert them into table1, this I can do easily but I will generate a new ServiceNo for each one and associated a new CampaigNo which is fine.
The problem comes in that I need to also copy the contents of Table2 = Table3 for all ServiceNos that have been copied from Table1 but insert the new Guid that will have been created when copying the rows in Table1
This is further compounded when I need to do the same to Table4 but this time I need to insert the newid's for SourceServiceNo and the related MemberServiceNo which all would have changed.
I haven't the first clue where to start with this task, do I need to use temporary tables, cursors? any help gratefully received, even if it's a pointer to the most efficient approach.
regards
