Hi guys,
I've been assigned the task of setting up access to our SQL Server 2005 box. A consultant developing for us has accessing to 2 databases and I've set this up fine. It appears however that one of these databases is re-copied over to the server every night to keep data reasonably current.
I'm not interesting in changing this method as I'm not the maintainer (as yet).
Basically I would like to know if I've setup access to this database (it works fine), when the database is updated (with an SSIS package) the account seems to get deleted. Do the original permissions from the source database overwrite those of its destination?
Cheers

Hello!
What is the best way to make a copy of an existing sql server database to another (physical) server?
Plan to make a full backup of another sql server database to another server. I've read about detach and attach
and copying the datafiles and log files but some say it is prone to data loss? Is this true?
And another thing, what if the existing sql server can't affor downtime for me to copy db files etc.?
Anybody here who have done the same?
Any help is very much appreciated.
Thanks!

Hi All,
I would like to restore database using RESTORE DATABASE ... REPLACE command.
If database exists already and has any open connections this command will fail.
I would like to close all existing connections to specific database before running RESTORE DATABASE ... REPLACE command.
I can do closing from Management Studio using checkbox "Close Existing Connection" when deleting database. Actually I need to do the same but from script.
Please advice me how to do it.
Thanks in advance,
Roman

I want to restore a database (from an encrypted .bak file) - but *not* over the live original if you take my meaning. Encryption is the standard AES-256 that comes with Sql Server 2014 btw. I don't want the original touched/altered in any way. I would like to capture a success message if possible.I can extract the physical device name of the database in question using the following code:
SELECT physical_device_name, *
FROM msdb.dbo.backupmediafamily
WHERE media_set_id =(SELECT TOP 1 media_set_id
FROM msdb.dbo.backupset
WHERE database_name='MyDatabase'
AND type='D'
ORDER BY backup_start_date DESC)
I would like if the newly restored database was rename to something different than 'MyDatabase' (as shown above) and has different logs than the original. If possible, and capture a success message when restored.

I'm using SQL Server Management Studio Express and I'm trying to figure out how to copy a table(s) from my local database to my web hosting database. I know how to do it in 2000, but it's completely different now. Is this feature not allowed on SSMSE? If so, then how do I deploy database tables to a web host?Also, how do you add local database(s) to SSMSE? I tried to use 'attach database' in SSMSE and it wouldn't allow me to navigate to My Documents folder where the database resides. 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

It may sound like crazy question, But just curious to know if any one tested this scenario.
I was restoring an existing database from a backup. While the restore is in progress, I found i was restoring with old back, then I canceled the operation.
Now Will it restore the partial data or it rolls back the entire transaction and brings back to original status or it will currupt the database??

I have a MSSQL database from a pre-existing app. The data files do not have an MDF exension, they have a .dat extension. I can however use Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express to run queries against the files, but I can not get VB 2005 to connect. When I attemp to add it as a project data source, I get the following error:
"An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file c:dataMSSQL$DATA_SQL....dat* failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share."
*Database names = company names are omitted to 'protect the innocent'.
Does anyone have any ideas? Since Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express worked so cleanly with the database I was expecting to easily get to the same data using VB.

How do I go about creating a cloned copy of an existing database on the same server? I basically want to set up a test copy of a production database, but let it reside on the same server with a slightly different name, prefixed with 'Testing_".
I typically just use Studio Express Manager and not scripts to do admin tasks. Here's what I tried that didn't work so well:
* Had full backups of production db
* Detached production database I wanted to clone
* From within Win Explorer, copy the .mdf and .ldf files within same data folder and gave them a new name, prefixing with "Testing_"
* Re-attached prodution db
* Attached "Testing_..." database
Sql Express seems confused at this point with new database I attached. It references the full path of the database I copied from (c:program filesmicrosoft sql servermssql.1data...". I rename the datbase, removing full path and prefixing with "Testing_".
* Using Sql authentication, changed the default database for the Login account to the new cloned copy of database.
* Did some query level data sanitizing to the cloned copy of the db. I am positive I performed this on the correct db.
* Was able to connect/authenticate to the cloned copy through a custom VB app on my dev machine, and all looked well.
* Tried to connect to the cloned db from another machine and couldn't. Went back to my dev machine and noticed the original production db looked hosed -- there were no tree nodes available to it! Was still able to connect to the cloned "Testing_" db copy, but not able to connect/authenticate anymore to the production copy.
* Detached cloned copy of "Testing_" db and moved it out of the data folder.
* Detached production db. Got an error msg indicating operation failure of some kind, but the database was gone from the tree.
* Reattached the production db but couldn't hit it from my custom vb app. Re-did the login and user accounts used by the app and was able to hit it. However, the data sanitizing I had done earlier in the cloned copy clearly was visibile in the production db!
* Had to restore production db from backup. Had problems authenticating from app, and recreated User account before the app was to connect.
Q1: What I am doing wrong? Sql Express was obviously as confused as me somewhere along the line.
Q2: Is specifying a default database used by a Login account necessary for a VB app like mine. I think it was something I discovered in the past, however, this would seemingly present a problem whenever I want my app to hit a different database, established through a connection string.
TIA...

Hello All,
I was wondering if anybody can help me with the following question:
I'm working on the application where the Database, it's table (2) and several stored procedures are involved. The database is SQL Server 2000. It's also very old and involves a lot of operations, stored proc and so on. I just need to re-write a piece of the app which is using existing stored proc. Most of them are DELETE, INSERT and so on. I don't want to work with real stage DB and need to make a copy of the Database to my Dev box. So I tried:
* Right click, All Tasks, Export Data into the newly created database on my dev box.
That doesn't work, every time I try doing it, it fails somewhere in the middle of the process. I'm thinking it happens because of complexity of the database. I tried several options there already. Still nothing. I need the whole databse to be copied because I'm not sure which stored proc the app is using so I need them all, and tables too. Is there another way of doing this?
Thank you,
Tatyana

I would like to create a test environment on a separate server running advanced server 2000. The current production server is NT4.0. What is the easiest way to copy the databases from production to test. I installed SQL7.0 on the new box then created the backup devices. Next I copied the backup files for all of the databases including master etc. to the new backup device folders. I tried to restore the master db first - then things went down hill. Any recommended procedures regarding this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I need to recover some data in a table but i'm not 100% sure the right way to do this safely.
I'll need to query the two tables to compare the before and after but how do i go about restoring/attaching the backup database to SQL without causing conflicts?
If I restore, i assume this would just overwrite which is obviously the worst thing that can happen. If i attach the backup, how does this affect the current live DB? how do i make sure that it's not getting accessed and mistaken for the live DB?
The SQL server is 2008 R2 running as a VM.
