Dear all,
I have a SQL Server 7 box that is shortly to be rebuilt completely (still on NT4, but with new RAID system), does anyone have any advice on how I can make the transition as painless as possible? Particularly, I want to maintain the backup, security and DTS structures as much as possible.
Thanks in advance

I have a requirement to only rebuild the Clustered Indexes in the table ignoring the non clustered indexes as those are taken care of by the Clustered indexes.
In order to do that, I have taken the records based on the fragmentation %.
But unable to come up with a logic to only consider rebuilding the clustered indexes in the table.
create table #fragmentation
(
FragIndexId BigInt Identity(1,1),
--IDENTITY(int, 1, 1) AS FragIndexId,
DBNAME nvarchar(4000),
TableName nvarchar(4000),
[Code] ....
What can I do to make OnComplete and OnSuccess mean something in SQL Server 2000 DTS?I have this pretty simple package that imports data into a table from an XLS file, then runs an external console application which manipulates the data and drops into a different table.That data is then used to create a CSV file. If I execute each step individually, the whole thing works. But what it happening is that the end file is being created before the console app is finished.I have a workflow line (on complete) between the 2 processes, but that doesn't seem to mean anything. To run the external app I am just using an active x script task...CreateObject("WScript.Shell").Run "my file" Any advice?

I've determined that the code I need to follow is:
Imports System
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Data.Sql
Imports System.Data.SqlTypes
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Server
Imports System.Data.SqlClient
'The Partial modifier is only required on one class definition per project.
Partial Public Class StoredProcedures
''' <summary>
''' Create a result set on the fly and send it to the client.
''' </summary>
<Microsoft.SqlServer.Server.SqlProcedure> _
Public Shared Sub SendTransientResultSet()
' Create a record object that represents an individual row, including it's metadata.
Dim record As New SqlDataRecord(New SqlMetaData("stringcol", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 128) )
' Populate the record.
record.SetSqlString(0, "Hello World!")
' Send the record to the client.
SqlContext.Pipe.Send(record)
End Sub
End Class
Given this code, how do I add other SqlMetaData Columns to the statement:
Dim record As New SqlDataRecord(New SqlMetaData("stringcol", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 128) )
---
Like this???
Dim record As New SqlDataRecord(New SqlMetaData("stringcol", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 128),New SqlMetaData("otherstringcol", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 128) )
I assume
record.SetSqlString(0, "Hello World!")
record.SetSqlString(1, "I'm Here!")
To populate the data.
Thanks,

Hi all - I'm having problems getting a package to run successfully to completion when I schedule it in SQL Server or as a batch file on the Windows scheduler. If I run the package interactively or run the batch file interactively that contains the DTSRUN command it runs to completion. Both packages start with a call to a batch file that FTPs files from a remote server and then they continue on by executing additional DTS packages within the running package. The owner of all the packages involved and is the same user that I am logged in as when running the packages interactively and is the same user that that SQL Agent and the Windows scheduler job runs under. The FTP step of each package does complete successfully but then I cannot trace where the package then hangs. The package never fails but rather it just continues in a Executing/Running state. This is getting extremely frustrating. Any insight in to this problem would be greatly appreciate.

I have a delete statement that works on some servers/databases and not on others. I am running this on SQL Server 2000/Windows 2000. The statment is a very simple DELETE x FROM y WHERE x = 1234. It is only 1 record in one table. The staement begins but never completes. It looks as if it just keeps trying to recompile but goes nowhere. Have any of you ever seen this before? It works on a restore of the database on 1 server, but not on another. It will not run on either production server/database. Is there a parameter or setting that I need to look for that might be different and causing this? I am running the Enterprise edition of SQL Server on some servers, and standard edition on others. Would that make a difference? If so, how and why. I've never had this issue before. We are running Windows Advanced Server on most all of our servers.
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

We are running SQL 6.5 sp5a. There have been a number of instances recently where some scheduled tasks don't complete. I can't even cancel them. The only way to stop them is to stop and start the Executive service.
Anyone come across this before and know what the problem is?
Hi,
I am having trouble trying to import a big file (aprox 250Mb is size) into an SQL Server database and I keep getting the message:
"Not enough storage is available to complete this operation".
The application tries to import the file by executing a stored procedure:
CREATE PROCEDURE sp_updateMaterialBlob
@MaterialId Int,
@BLOB image
AS
BEGIN
Update Material SET blob = @blob where id = @materialId
END
The application uses an ADO connection. I've tried increasing the memory of the client machine but that didn't work. Whenever I do run the import, nearly all the memory on the machine is used up but every time after several hours I get the same error message. What is the cause of the problem and how do I resolve it? Ideally I want to use my application to do the import rather than anything bespoke.
I was given the task of writing a new website for my boss.
problem being he wants the ability have a custom user signup form and then a picture gallery of service with comments listed off each one.
I was also asked to produce this in .aspx with SQL.
only one small glitch, never worked with either of them....
I have designed most of the database requirements off of examples I found online but have not found how to post data from the users signup form to the database correctly and retrieve it for the customers profile.
any suggestions????
all help on this will be greatly appreciated
Hello all! A while ago I started cataloging my collection of old radio recordings and I wrote a simple Visual Basic 2005 program to display them in a nice UI. I have implemented an SQL database with the project and all is fine, when I run the program it connects to the sql server and downloads the data. But when I try and change something by connecting from within Visual Basic at runtime with this code:
Private Sub Save_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Save.Click
Dim ConnectionString As New SqlConnection("Server=MARK-HOMESQLEXPRESS;Database=Library.mdf;Uid=MARK-HOMEMark;Pwd=sodoff;")
Dim sqlString As String
ConnectionString.Open()
sqlString = "UPDATE JackBenny SET Rating='Excellent' WHERE [Episode Number]=" & epNumber
ConnectionString.BeginTransaction(sqlString)
ConnectionString.Close()
End Sub
I get this error code in the log and a general unable to login error within Visual basic itself:
2007-11-22 15:44:39.78 Logon Error: 18456, Severity: 14, State: 5.
2007-11-22 15:44:39.78 Logon Login failed for user 'Mark'. [CLIENT: <local machine>
The state of 5 refers to "User ID is not valid." but I can login to SQL Server Management Studio Express just fine with the username and password in the code posted. Also of note, I can login to the Server Managment with the sa account username and password. When I use the credentials in visual basic code, same error. Any ideas? I am trying to connect to a database which is on this computer (local) in the root folder of the application, called Library.mdg.
Thanks so much all
I recently re-built my entire system from ground up (new hard drives, OS, etc). I now have the problem of SQL 2005 installed partially, but no way to get the management tools installed. I get an "already installed message when I try". I've never encounted this before on any other SQL install.
Sequence of events. I installed VS 2005 Pro first, then followed by SQL 2005. Somewhere this install didn't work, and I was left with the MS installed thinking I suceeded, yet none of the functions of SQL were worked or more importantly accessable.
I tried to re-install after using the ADD/Remove App from the control panel (which was sucessfull). SQL thought it was still installed. So I uninstalled VS 2005 as well, and deleted any programs in the SQL directory. Then I checked ADD/Remove programs and nothing was showing. The re-install still did not work. My guess is that the registry is still loaded with now useless entries.
Is there any solution left that does not require me to hand delete any SQL registry entries, since that is always a great way to completely kill my system.
Thanks.
Hi,
How can I encrypt / decrypt whole database (data, objects ... everything) in SQL Server 2005 Express Edition?
Quick solution from any champion of Databases would be highly entertained.

A couple of days ago I installed SQL Server 2005 developer. To pave the way for this I removed SQL Server 2000 and 2005 Express. Since then I've been unable to connect from any of my applications or websites in Visual Studio 2005 to either:- my new 2005 Developer database engine- my colleagues 2005 developer database engine. My colleague can connect to my databases from his visual studio on his machine. I am receiving unspecified OleDb errors.Anyone else had this happen? Anyone know where I should start looking?

I want to script the whole database - is this possible?

I'm getting the "out of memory" exception when trying to do various things on a sql mobile [sql mobile 2005] database on a windows mobile 5 device. Our app uses compact framework 2.0 and is written in c#.
Our application uses strongly typed data sets, and save/loads them from a sql mobile database. The error occurs in different places, but always somewhere we interact with the database. It might fail on "DELETE FROM Location" in one run, and on a DataAdapter.Update on another, and a DataAdapter.Fill in another.
The memory thing I can add to the today screen suggests that when I encounter this error there is only 1-2Mb of program memory free [and about 13Mb of storage]. Unfortunately windows mobile 5 doesn't seem to have a way to adjust the allocation between storage/program memory anymore.
The failure has been occuring while trying to import data [which we are loading from a web service, as weakly typed datasets and copying into our specialized ones].
I have implemented:
Using statements, and/or dispose statements on:
Data Adapters
explicitly calling the dispose method on commands used in data adapters: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/824462
Sql Connections
Sql commands [where not used in adapters]
Using/dispose around the larger data sets in the loading process
Gc.Collect() before database interaction [this seemed kind of like a last resort]
Reduction of memory usage [by loading fewer records from the web service at a time]
There does not seem to be a storage memory limitation, a fully loaded database file is about 3Mb. Our test handheld has only 64Mb of memory, and I've seen at most maybe 25Mb free [storage and program combined].
We are opening [and closing] a connection each time we touch the database. How much of a difference will going to a single connection opened when the app starts make?
Any ideas? Perhaps there's something I've missed?
thanks,

Hi.
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi,
View 12 Replies View RelatedHello,
I most likely am being incredibly stupid here, but I have installed SQL 2005 Enterprise and Service Pack 2 on my Acer laptop running Vista Business and cannot for the life of me figure out how to start the thing.
When I hit the start button on the toolbar, and go to Microsoft SQL Server 2005, there is one folder that expands down called Configuration Tools. This has the options Notification Services, Configuration Management, Error and Usage Reports, and Surface Area Configuration. But no where can I find an icon that actually starts the database thing so I can create a database and learn some SQL stuff.
I would be most grateful if anybody could point out where I am going wrong or if there is anything I need to do.
Many thanks,
Chima
I want to poll a row on a table:
DECLARE @CNT INT
DECLARE @Q NVARCHAR(1000)
SET @CNT = 1
WHILE(@CNT < 1000)
BEGIN
SET @Q = 'SELECT * FROM table'
PRINT @Q
EXEC sp_executesql @Q
SET @CNT = @CNT + 10
WAITFOR DELAY '00:00:01'
END
The thing is I want it just to run and run in a separate window, while something else is updating this table.
Thing is: it seems to run right to the end and only then produce output.
My question is: how can I get it to print output as it happens, rather than when the script is complete?
I have a service (Windows service that is) that's set to automatic startup. The service makes use of one or more SQL server databases and is configured with a startup dependency on SQL Server.
Problem is, the service control manager considers that startup dependency to be satisfied once the SQL server service process successfully starts, but connections from within my service to my databases won't actually succeed until recovery on at least those databases is complete.
Of course, I can do something mundane like retry failed connections a few times, or ensure that I don't attempt to connect to a database until some hard-wired amount of system uptime has passed, but those solutions are just band-aids. The Right Answer, it seems to me, would be to detect when SQL Server has finished recovery and not attempt to connect to my databases before that time.
So, is there any way to determine if SQL server has completed recovery programatically? On a server-wide basis or on an individual database basis? I'm assuming that my service would need to connect to SQL Server with some high-powered credentials (sa or equivalent) to get that information, but that's not a problem in my application.
Any pointers appreciated!
