Connect To SQL Server 2000 From Command Line Interface
Jan 29, 2004
Hi,
I need to implement command line interface to SQL Server 2000 ...
I have no idea from where to begin... What programming environment? What language? From where and how to connect to db? I'll be glad to accept any ideas.
Thank you
I want to import a huge .csv file in my sql server database.
There are about 10000 rows and 30 columns
My file looks like this: Attributname1; Attributname2; Attributname3; ... data; data; data;... data; data; data;... data; data; data;...
Now my idea is to do this on the command line/batch script. I have found different ways to do this job but the problem is i have to create a table in the database first. The entries in the first line of the csv file are the attribute names.
After creating the table with attributes i must write the data in the database.
Hello,I would like to know whether it is possible to execute DTS(Data Transformation Services) packages created from withinthe EM (Enterprise Manager) user interface, from the commandline. That is, is it possible to execute a command at the DOSprompt which will execute, and optionally also reconfigure,the DTS package? This would allow invoking DTS packagesfrom within scripts.Thank you for your replies,Neil
Hello,What could possibly cause data in the SQL server database to beremoved, except being deleted manually? We had a couple of situationswhere data in certain records disappeared although the records werestill there. The data is entered and editted through the web interfacein ASP. The web interface is accessed by anyone who has an account inour database.I am more of a web programmer, not a SQL server administrator, so notvery familiar with SQL Server log or error tracking. If you cansuggest any way to track this kind of events (data disappearing), Iwould appreciate it very much.HB Kim
Hello All... I am new to this forum (and new to SQL for that matter), so I hope this isn't a stupid question. I tried searching for the answer but couldn't find it here. I am trying to start & stop SQL server through the command line so I can start & stop it as a scheduled task. Are there any switches for sqlmangr.exe I can use? Maybe another way?
I tried to install SQL Server 2008 Native Client and I am not able to run the SQL script using command Line. I am getting an error "SQL type is not recognized..." So My questions is here.. is there any special package is there to run Command Line Utility without installing any SQL Client?
As a Sys Admin, I was wondering - if I have admin rights to a Win2k machinethat is hosting SQL Server 2000, do I have the ability using anycommand-line tools such as OSQL or ISQL to add, delete, or change accountsregistered in SQL Server for the various databases if I don't have access toa specific account within SQL Server?I ask, because the question that came up was - what if we have a DBA leaveunder less than amicable circumstances? Could I, someone who has adminrights on the machine, be able to log into that machine remotely and somehowvia command line (I don't maintain active SQL clients centrally), change theSA password, remove an account, and/or add an account with sysadmin rights,etc?Thanks in advance for any help -
I am running a SSIS package through a SQL 2005 job. The package has encrypted data used to access a FTP account. I changed the package's security protection level to "EncryptSensitiveWithPassword." I also added a password to the package. I then tried to add the password to the jobs command line, and it still failed. Does anyone have a suggestion? I think I may have built the command line wrong. Can I get an example?

What is the correct command line parameters to SQLEXPR32.exe that will default the Log On As: properties for the instance to use the Built-in account of Local System & Local Service?
I need it to be set to Local System immediately on install without having to go into the configuration manager. When I run the SQLEXPR32.exe right now I get the Network Service defaulted.
Microsoft confirmed that the error message "The command line parameters are invalid" issue mentioned above is a bug and has been resolved in the next "drop" of SQL Server 2005.
has this error been fixed by microsoft. Cos i still get this error!!!!!!!!!
I am also trying to run the package from command line and when i click on execute the package it runs half way and hangs. What could be the problem????.
But when i run it from my Studio and stored package it works fine!!!

They areNOT computer savvy and I would like to automate this process ratherthan go into enterprise manager and run data transformation.Is there any way to write a batch file or a set of command lines whichwill do this?Thanks.Monica
Our application installation setup needs to be able to detect:
Is SQL Server 2005 Express Installed?
If false, run the SP2 Installation Is SQL Server 2005 Express or SQL Express SP1 Installed?
If false, run the SP2 Installation with Update Switch Is SQL Server 2005 (not Express) Installed
If true, abort installation with a mesage.
Can you direct me to some documentation about testing for these environments or just if someone has some scripts that will run in InstallShield, that would be great.
ALSO, can you direct me to information about using the command line update switch for the Express SP2 Installer?
It installs the SQL Server and Reporting Services. It configures (creates Virtual Directories for report server and database) but it is not initializing the Report Server.
Having done the installation when i check the Report Server Status it was running and everything seems to be OK except it wasn't initialized.
Everything goes on fine until the SQL Server Database Sersvices configuring and a pop-up says the following:
SQL Server Setup could not validate the service accounts. Either the service accounts have not been provided for all of the services being installed, or the specified username or password is incorrect. For each service, specify a valid username, password, and domain, or specify a built-in system account.
I have no idea how to come over this. Any help would be appreciated.
PS I don't know what AGTACCOUNT or AGTPASSWORD is, so maybe the error might be there. If not, anybody willing to explain to me what it is, it would be GREATLY appreciated.
Hi I am looking for an interface connect to 'SQL Server 2000 enterprise' so that my TSQL can be executed. I am using 2003 Excel but there is a limitation of 65k records only can be loaded.

I am using installshield to distribute SQL Server 2005 Express. I have the SQLEXPR.EXE file and I want to run it in /qb mode so the user can see the pretty dialogs pop up but not have to click anything.
I am a bigginer. I need to save input from textBox (User interface that I have made using VWD) to a database in SQLSEE 2005 using C#. please help me. I now how to connect to DB using Visual Items like gride view and form view. but i want to conect to DB using my developed UI lke in below. any help greatly appreciated
Using Query Analyzer, I can right click on an object and select "scriptobject to new window as create" and I get the text of the object'sdefinition (schema). Can I get same result from command line, i.e., fromosql, I can get text output for the definition of the object (something likedefncopy under Sybase)? If so, what is the command or store procedure name?Thanks in advance.
hi I would appreciate if someone demonstrate how to automate ftp in a command line from within a batch file. I do want to move certain files from one server to another via ftp command line in an automatic fashion via running the batch periodically.
I use a similar command below to insert into a temp table the result of a large command line call to an exectable with many parameters passed in the command of which the result passed back contains many items. I then parse the response string to get my results...
set @command = 'dir' insert into tsverisign(response) exec master..xp_cmdshell @command
My question is our can I insert two values at the same time to this same table one of which is my "exec master..xp_cmdshell @command"
similar to insert into tables (field_a, feild_b) values ('1','2')
Something like (and I know this does not work):
insert into tsverisign(response,trans_id) values (exec master..xp_cmdshell @command, '123')
Any help would be greatly appreciated .... PS I'm new to MS SQL 2000 and proper syntax etc. etc. so I need full example so I can try. :rolleyes:
I was given a task of coming up with the script to recreate an existing database using a command line. I would use this script in case when the server is down and I can't get to Query Analyzer or EM to recreate it. I am not sure where to start. Any ideas are greatly appreciated.
