I'm new to database development and have created a database-driven website which now needs to be uploaded to the client's hosting company server. What is the easiest way for a newbie to upload a copy of the databse to the host. Thanks in advance.
I am using a SQL Server 2000 Database for the purpose of development.
Now I want to host the SQL Server2000 database in the internet and I want to access it via the ASP.Net
1) Please, what is the best server that host SQL Server databases? 2) And Can I control the database remotely(such as execute srcipt to change table structure in the hosted database) as I did in Query Analyzer? 3) Is the administer of the hosting server able to change the strucure and contents of My Hosted DataBase?
I am new to database. I have a website in a hosting environment and it uses sql server 2005 databases. I want to have a complete backup of my database in addition to the hosting company's routine backup. I want to write a program to automatically backup everything every night. And of couse have the ability to restored the whole database if necessary. How should I do it? Are there any tools exist that I can use? What is the best way to deal with backup/restore in hosting environment? Thanks!
hi all,my hosting company uses a different port for connect to their sql server.how do i register a server in sql server management studio with a different port number??
What is needed for a hoster / hosting company to be able to host .Net applications with SQL Server 2005 Express database?
My questions regarding this issue basically are:
If a hoster has several sites hosted on a server, can each one of them have its own SQL Express database? Or, do they have to be migrated to full SQL Server?
What is with the Upsize Tool for SQL Server Express (or something like that) - is it available? Generally, how do hosters do their hosting - do they have SQL Server SPLA signed? Or do they just have SQL Server 2005 Express and allow users just to copy their web sites and databases to server?
i've got a database stored on my computer using mysql server 2005, and I've just registered for hosting which uses the Plesk control panel. In plesk I've setup a database and relevant user. What the easiest way of exporting the whole database on my computer and getting it onto my hosting account?
we are thinking about consolidating our Vendor Sqlserver needs into single big Sqlserver box. We currently have dedicated boxs for each vendor who requires a Sqlserver Dbs, for example Siemen Sqlserver Dbs are on one box, Clintrac Dbs are on one bx, etc.
It looks like we can save some money on HW/SW and maintenance cost by the consolidation. That's assuming that the Dbs can get along fine.
I was wondering if folks on this group can share their experience or thoughts about above setting.
Hi, I'm developing a website using VWD 2005 Express, which needs a Membership system and a products database. Using the VWD inherent Web Site Administration tool makes the membership set up easy but by default it creates a 'Local' SQL database in a folder named 'Apps_Data' in the VWD project. My question is: considering I will need to upload my web site to a Hosting Service, would it be better to change the default so that the membership systems, and the product database I need, are created in an SQL 'Server' database instead of a 'Local' database? The hosting service I am considering using is having a bit of a problem understanding this question, I hope it makes sense to someone or am I asking a stupid question? Regards Sean.

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.
I would like to know if is possible copy data from a database located in my hosting to my database located in my pc,but using a store procedure,how can i do that ?.What tool i have to use?
Hi, I'm trying to copy one SQL Server Database into another SQL Server DB within the same server. I learnt a bit about this copying, that it copies only the Database structure, the Tabels, constraints view stored procedures etc etc. Is there a tutorial where I can get clear instructions to do this. I just need the table structure without any data to be copied into this. Have even tried exploring creating and executing DTS packages but cudn't get much help with this. Any help wud be really appreciated.
Does anyone know how to copy a database from one server to another? I want to backup a production database and restore it to a different server (a test server) as a test.
I used a sample from the MCDBA study book and all I got was two copies of Northwind on the same server. Any idea what I did wrong? Seems like you should be able to backup on one server and restore on another. Here's the code I used:
BACKUP DATABASE Northwind TO DISK = 'Sd-appsmssql7DataNwind.bak' RESTORE FILELISTONLY FROM DISK = 'Sd-appsmssql7DataNwind.bak' RESTORE DATABASE Northwind2 FROM DISK = 'Sd-appsmssql7DataNwind.bak' WITH MOVE 'Northwind' TO 'Sd-sqlmssql7DataNorthwind.mdf', MOVE 'NorthwindLog1' TO 'Sd-sqlmssql7DataNorthwindLog1.ldf' GO
I need to take a copy of a database present in a SQL server to other SQl server using VB.net code. I can make it out with wizards but i need the query to execute it thru vb.net.
We recently got a new SQL Server 2000. I'm not really a SQL/Network admin but I was tasked to migrate some of our databases in the SQLSVR7 to SQLSVR2K.
I tried using DTS EXPORT but getting errors. Is there a better way to do this?
Im running SQL Server 2005 Express with SQL Server Management studio installed on my laptop. After updating my database, how do I copy the entire contents to the main server in the office, which is running windows server 2003 and SQL Server 2000 Developer Edition. And is it possible to do it all from my laptop?
Hi I am running my sql 2000 database server and I just want to copy that database and paste or put on another server which has also run same version of sql 2000 database. I tried to copy and paste the ldf & mdf extensioned files which are located in "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLData" into my 2 server, but when I open up the enterprise manager, I cant see the new database. So this way dont work, I tried to do something with export and import wizard but it just creates another database and copies the data in that database in the same server. I want to copy that data and put onto another system, please guide me. I'm confused, Thanks a lot
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 have a customer who I have set up a SQL Server Express database for. The database was running fine, but I copied it over to my pc over the weekend to update some data. I have copied the data backwards and forwards plenty of times, but this time when I came to copy it back and reattach it on the customers' server I get the following message:
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express ------------------------------
Attach database failed for Server 'SBSSERVERBKUPEXEC'. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Express.Smo)

I am developing a .NET 2.0 application that uses Sql Express as its backend. I use OleDb Provider to connect to Sql express.
One of the options in the app allows the Admin to create a Backup of the database. As part of this process, I write a log entry to one of the tables in the database, commit & close the connection, and then copy the physical database(.mdf) file to some pre-determined location using the following instruction (in VB): My.Computer.FileSystem.CopyFile("Path to Database File", "Destination Path")
It throws an exception saying that the file is in use. Upon checking, I found that the file has been locked-up by the Sql process. I ensured that my app closes all connections to the database, that there is none other trying to connect to it, and then again tried to execute the above instruction in my app, again raising the same error.
However, when the app terminates, then I can easily copy the databse using explorer. I also used the OleDb method ReleaseObjectPool(), but the problem persisted.
So, how can I copy the database in such a situation from within my app??
First of all let me explain that I am a complete newbie to this SQL stuff. I am in the process of reading a book, and followed the books suggestions for what I want to do, but it doesn't work. I know this has been covered several times in this forum, but no one post in particular covered exactly what I want to do.
I want to copy the database from the server to my local machine.
First, do I need to have SQL running on my machine in order to copy the database? I do have Enterprise Manager running, does that mean SQL Server is running locally?
Secoond, I tried using the Copy Wizard, but when I get to the target list, my local machine is not listed. How do I get it listed so I can copy the database?
I hope my questions are not too stupid... but then I'd be stupid if I didn't ask questions.
I am trying to copy a database from the server on my web host(crystaltech) to my new local install of MS SQL Server 2005 Enterprise (trial version).
I go to Tasks>Copy Database which opens the wizard. When I get to the select database screen I get this error:
Server user 'username' is not a valid user in database '123foo'
(123foo is the first database of all those on the server)
I need have it look only at my database which I have permissions for to copy it. How do I do this?
I tried copying the tables the other way(import data) but it dropped all my identities and primary keys which is a pain to recreate. Is there a way to copy tables from one server to another without losing primary keys and identity fields?
I have right now sql server 2000 instance installed on a server (serverone) which is accessed on all nodes through an ODBC connection.
Now we have upgraded our server to windows server 2005 which will be on other machine servertwo. I have right now installed sql server 2005 in servertwo. Wish to copy the database from serverone to servertwo. Once it is copied and everything is working fine. I want to uninstal sql server 2000 from serverone.
What is the best way to do this? I am trying different things like tried running code Advisor on serverone which is not recognising the sql server 2005 instance of servertwo. It's giving message as since the sql server is installed on default settings it can't be accessed remotely. I see that SQL server 2000 database is accessible on all nodes including servertwo. Why is it that servertwo sql server is no where accessible?
This problem may appear trivial to you guys but is troubling me since quite some time now! The problem is that I created a website using express studio happily and it worked flawlessly on the local host. Now I want to move it to a remote server and my host created a database name ASPNETDB for me on the server. The problem is that that ASPNETDB database is virtually empty and I want to copy all my tables,stored procedures etc etc(complete database) to the remote ASPNETDB database. How can I do that? In the management studio express edition there is no command available to copy paste all contents of the database to another database. Please help I am quite confused!
We have SQL Server 2012 running on Windows 2008 Server. We need to copy five databases from our 'sandbox' to our test server and then to our production server. The database backup file sizes are 3 MB, 20 MB, 344 MB, 645 MB and 17 GB. We are planning on using the backup and restore method since we already have full backups and the scripts to recreate the logins/users/permissions. We believe this method provides more flexibility and control over the process. However, we have a few jobs, maintenance plans and ssis packages.
To get the jobs to the new server instance, the plan is to script out the jobs on the 'sandbox' and execute the scripts on the test server instance. Is this the best or only way to handle the jobs?How to get these maintenance plans to the new server instance? (There is no 'script out' maintenance plan option.) We may have to just recreate them on the new server instance. Is this the best or only way to handle the maintenance plans?
We have a few ssis packages. How to handle getting the ssis packages over to the new server instance (using the backup restore method)? These packages use the Project Deployment Model. Therefore, should we restore the SSISDB or open up the package file using VSS on the new server instance and change the connection information to point to the new server instance.
Just wondering if there is any reason or advantage to use the Detach and Attach method or Copy Database Wizard method? I have read where the Copy Database Wizard method handles the database's dependent objects like logins, jobs, maintenance plans, user-defined error messages and shared objects from the master database. Are there any other move/copy database methods to consider? Just trying to make sure we have thought out everything and are using the best method to copy our databases over to another server instance.

I am not sure I understand the problem I am causing, but I am a beginner!
Here's the situation: I have a table located on MS SQL server database number 1. Said table, which we'll call WIDGET_PRICES, is accessed regularly by my existing source code and has no problems.
At some point, I decide to move operations to MS SQL database number 2 and do a very simple database copy of WIDGET_PRICES from database 1 to database 2 using the Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio.
The end result, inevitably, is that my source code can no longer access the very same table as it is located on the new database server. The code hasn't changed, it's still trying to access WIDGET_PRICES as always. And, from what I see on my screen through Management Studio, WIDGET_PRICES appears just fine.
An example error is the one I just got:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '80040e37'
Invalid object name 'YB_ITEMS'.
/yardbark/tampabay/header.asp, line 27
The only clue is that while my transferred tables often look named like "database1.WIDGET_PRICES on database 1, they wind up looking like database2.WIDGET_PRICES on dabase 2.
I include a little more detail and screenshots of the tables in questions at this web page.
While trying to find a folder on SQL an OLE DB error was encountered with error code
0x80004005 (Login failed for user 'sa'. The login is a SQL Server login and cannot be used with
Windows authentication.).
- Start SQL Server Agent Job (Stopped)
- Execute SQL Server Agent Job (Stopped) -------------------------------------------------
The attach/detach route also fails with the same message. Although I create a SSIS proxy, the Copy Database Wzard shows only the SQLServerAgent as the proxy. Why? ---------- Does copy database wizard use OLEDB for the transfer? Does it mean you must have both Source and Destinaton with windows authentication?
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...
When copying data to a remote SQL2K5 destination from a SQL2K5 source database, both using mixed sql server security mode, my job generates the following error:
[Transfer SQL Server Objects Task] Error: Execution failed with the following error: "Cannot apply value null to property Login: Value cannot be null..".
This occurs after the destination database tables have been truncated and replacement data from the source would begin to copy.
The same process can be successfully completed from the Management studio with a simple data export process. However, when I run the saved package again from the BI interface, I get this error.
My search engine searches have yielded numerous hits of others having the same problem with one microsoft rep indicating it was a bug and would be resolved in sp1. I am working with sp1. Oddly, there is only mention of this in the forums. No KB article from MS addresses the problem and I do not see it addressed elsewhere at sqlservercentral.
It appears that others have switched to Integrated Security and resolved the problem. However, I do not have that option with a remotely hosted database.
Does anyone have any information concerning this problem?

Does anyone use One and One Internet (UK) for their hosting? I use them and when I published my site all membership feautures wouldn't work, I called the One and One support and they said that their servers only support SQL Databases if they were created using their own tool in their control panels. How would I get my site to use their database, I'm really not sure. If anyone else could help me out I'd be grateful. Kind Regards Mattie
