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,
ThunderRock
Hi all
Could someone tell me how I create a local copy of an existing database on my machine.
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,

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 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.

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.

Hi All,
What's the best mechanism for creating a reporting database? I have a Microsoft Dynamics ERP system that I'm using and all our reports are currently run of the live production database. I'd like to create a reporting database that has a relatively fresh copy of the live database to run reports off. It appears mirroring is the way to go, but I'd like to get recommendations from people on this.
Is there a good site that explains how to set this up? Any thing to watch out for?
Thanks

I try to copy database from remote SQL Server(6.5) to our local
SQL Server(7.0). I try this way: First, in Enterprice Manager,
I try "NEW SQL SERVER REGISTRATION" using "Register SQL
Server wizard". The remote server give me the IP, login name
and password. then, I try connect option by "login using
SQL Server". But I got message say:"specialted server not found,
Connection open,create file". some times say:"client server access
denied..." some times say:"timeout". What's going on here?
So, I can not get going on with "Import data wizard".
Does anyone know how to solve this problem? Any answer would be of great assistance!
Thanks

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi SQL folks,
I've googled for this the whole yesterday and I couldn't find a complete solution.
I'm having a sql2005 database in my development machine and I need to copy all the content "Tables, Diagrams, PK columns and other data" to the remote production machine.
Using the Import/Export method didn't copied the relationships between tables, also it turned the PKs into just a standard columns
Can anyone help?
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!
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
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.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI 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,

Hi Everyone
I am at the stage of architecting my solution
My goal is to develop the system on a windows application and pda
There is a central server which will create a publication called inventory
The laptops which host the windows application will be subscribers to the central server using merge replication
The client now wants the PDA using SQL Mobile to synchronize with the local subscirber database on the laptop using active sync. They dont want to do it via WIFI to the IIS Server at the central server
I have been reading for days and I am still unsure whether this is possible to do.
I know Appforge provide a conduit for palm to access synchronization but not local sql databases
I would appreciate your help immensley
Hey All,
I am attempting to create a report on SQL Reporting Services that uses a local XML file as its datasource. Although i did not find a way to directly do this, I found an MSDN article that walks a person through on how to use a report parameter to paste in your XML data from the page. When I set up the report in this way, I get an "Invalid URI" error when I go to the preview tab.
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa964129.aspx
What would be the best way for me to use an XML file as a datasource using reporting services? Is there a way that I can use a local file and use a parameter to point at that file?
Any info, links, tuts, etc. would help. Thanks!

I'm setting up replication for the 1st time following the steps in the Books Online to get it up and running:
ms-help://MS.SSCE.v31.EN/ssmmain3/html/5a82aa7a-41a3-4246-a01a-2b1e4b2fdfe9.htm.
Anyhow, I get down to the section labeled - Create a new SQL Server Compact Edition database and am having a problem. I open SQL Server Management Studio as instructed. I click Connect and then am supposed to select SQL Server Compact Edition - yet can't find that option.
And, yes, I've installed Compact Edition on my development laptop. So, how do I get this option so that I can create the local DB for Compact Edition and continue development?
UPDATE:
Ok, duh moment, I have SQL Server Management Studio Express loaded on my laptop, so did not have the option. I've attempted to uninstall SQL Server Management Studio Express and install the full version from the SQL Server CDs. However, when I go to install the full version it tells me that the management tools are already installed and won't let me install anything. So, how do I get around this so that I can install full version of SQL Server Management Studio and then get the option to connect to the SQL Server Compact Edition?
Any help will be appreciated.
UPDATE 2:
Ok, figured it out. You can't just uninstall SQL Server Management Studio express, you must go in to Add/Remove Programs, SQL Server 2005, Change. Then select to uninstall the Workstation components. Then you can go use the SQL Server install discs to install the full blown SQL Server Management Studio along with the other Workstation components.
Thanks ...

Any day above ground is a good day!
I am able to use user data types for creating local temporally tables in store procedures, but I receive an error at run-time about the user data type.
Msg 2715, Level 16, State 7, Procedure SP_SAMPLE_TEST, Line 4
Column, parameter, or variable #1: Cannot find data type D_ORDER_NUMBER.
The same user data type is used as parameters in several other store procedures, and they work perfect. It is also used in several table definitions.
What am I doing wrong?
Thanks in advance to any one who can help me with this problem.

Being a very novice SQL Server administrator, I need to ask the experts a question.
How do I go about moving a database from 1 drive to another? The source drive (C is local to the server, but the target drive (E is on a Storage Area Network (SAN), although it is still a local drive for the server. I want to move the database from C: to E:. Can someone provide me with instructions?
Thanks,

Our DB has around 30 SProcs - I need to move them into a script, so that it can be easily added to another server. The way I'm creating the script is to highlight all the SProcs, then copy - in my notepad screen, I paste, which gives me one script, which includes all the individual creation scripts for the Sprocs.
However, I'm getting an error when I create the script -
Cannot add rows to sysdepends for the current stored procedure because it depends on the missing object 'SP_MySproc'. The stored procedure will still be created.
So - what's a good, and/or easy way to structure the script, so that I can easily find WHERE to put Which SProc Script, in the list?
