I am using SQL Server 6.5 and this database has 50 database tables and each table has 10000 records in it. So, in short it is very big database. Very often I get the "Database Lock" problem. I tried to tune the database but no help. Is it like that if I upgrade SQL Server 6.5 to SQL Server 7.0, will it help me ? If yes, how ?

I have a script that automates some db drop/restore operations and bringing the database to single user mode is part of it: ALTER DATABASE ... SET SINGLE_USER WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE...I want this to executes under a login, that has restricted privileges, so I've created a login and granted it a dbcreator role + ALTER ANY DATABASE privileges.
Problem: When I run the script against a database with an active/sleeping connection:It fails when using the restricted login: "Msg 5061...ALTER DATA BASE failed because a lock could not be placed on database ..."It completes successfully when using a sysadmin login According to stackoverflow.com the solution is to kill the active/sleeping connections to the database, before ALTER-ing it, which works fine, but the question is....
Questions: Why the "ALTER DATABASE..." statement works under the sysadmin login, but not under a dbcreator one?Does this mean the sysadmin login kills the connections to the target database in the background?Is it possible to grant additional privileges to the restricted login, so the "ALTER DATABASE..." statement won't need preventive killing of the connections?
One annoying problem has occurred....I want to put database in offline mode....but it is giving me some error...
"ALTER DATABASE failed because a lock could not be placed on database [database]. Try again later. ALTER DATABASE statement failed. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 5061)" ...
In my system I got a problem.
One of the database's Tables are not getting opened and I can not even alter a Stored Procedure which is related to the tables of that database.
How can I solve that?

Hello,
I created a form that retrieve a number from a database. Can I lock that record so that other people cannot access it?
Similar to "lock" function in Visual Fox Pro database.

Hi
We are facing an acute situation in our web-application. Technology is ASP.NEt/VB.NET, SQL Server 2000.
Consider a scenario in which User 1 is clicking on a button which calls a SQL stored procedure. This procedure selects Group A of records of Database Page1.
At the same time if User 2 also clicks the same button which calls same SQL stored procedure. This procedure selects Group B of records of Database Page1.
So, its the same Page1 but different sets of records. At this moment, both the calls have shared locked on the Page1 inside the procedure.
Now, in call 1, inside the procedure after selecting Group A of records, the next statement is and update to those records. As soon as update statement executes, SQL Server throws a deadlock exception as follows :
Transaction (Process ID 78) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Rerun the transaction
We are able to understand why its happening. Its because, Group A and Group B of records are on the same Page1. But both the users have shared lock on the Page1. So, no one gets the exclusive lock in records for update, even though, the records are different.
How can I resolve this issue? How can I get lock on wanted rows instead of entire page?
Please advice. Thanks a bunch.

Hi,I need to lock a database (prevent users from connecting) in order toupdate it. I already know how to kick everyone out with their spid buti can't figure how to prevent them from reconnecting.Thanks !
View 5 Replies View RelatedHi,
How do I lock entire database? I want an exclusive lock on the db by
a user
who is the dbo of that database only (not sa
user).
The
scenario is we have a web application and each week we need to do data
uploads (with etl). During this upload, the users accessing the website
should not be able to read data. This is why I want database lock.
Now
the catch here is, the application access the data using user say abc.
Abc is dbo for that database and the etl is also done by abc login. So
will db locking help in this case as the website can also read the data
being a abc user?
Thanks,

i keep getting an error when trying to move some data out of a suspect database i switched to recovery mode.
any ideas on how to get the data moved?

Could not continue scan with NOLOCK due to data movement.

Hello,Could some clarify for me? I’ve been told that I should add lock statements to my database write querys (update, delete, insert). I’m not sure If it’s necessary though. The only documentation I’ve found so far is how to implement a lock statement with threading but I’m not using the threading namespace. What best practice and how would I implement this without threading or should I be using threading?Thanks in advance!
I am in the process of writing a stored procedure that takes data from a table, within a cursor, and puts that data to the network server via the xp_cmdshell procedure. The xp_cmdshell command is at the end of the cursor in the SP.
I have worked with the admins on getting the proper permissions to execute this procedure and have tested it by running the procedure directly in Query Analyzer and by calling it in Query Analyzer successfully.
However when I try to call this procedure from another programming envirnoment, once the xp_cmdshell process is called, the procedure locks up and blocks the rest of the process, including the other software programming environment. When I look at the error log, it indicates that correct command, as a matter of fact I have copied the log file command into Query Analyzer and ran the procedure successfully. So for some reason, the statement is not being committed or there is some kind of threading issue I do not know how to address.
If anyone out there has any suggestions or has a simular problem in the past and knows how to address it, it would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!
I have question on lock on table in SQL Server while inserting data using multiple processes at a single time into same table.Here are my questions on this,
1) Is it default behavior of SQL server to lock table while doing insert?
2) if yes to Q1, then how we can implicitly mention while inserting data.
3) If I have 4 tables and one table is having foreign keys from rest of the 3 tables, on this scenario do I need to use the table lock explicitly or without that I can insert records into those tables?
I was at a conference and had it asserted to me by an Oracleafficiando that Oracle and DB2 handled low-level locks "better" thanSQL Server, and that this was likely the cause of SQL Server'srelatively slower and more deadlock-prone performance when running thesame application. (SQL does seem to perform more poorly for this app,a PeopleSoft customer service and billing app.)Is there any significant difference in lock escalation strategiesbetween major databases, and if so, what are the implications?Jeff Roughgarden, MSCD, MCDBA

View 6 Replies View RelatedHi,
I have set of 2 DTS packages, one of which calls the other by forming a command-line (dtexec) using a Execute Process task.
From the parent package-> Execute Process Task->
dtsexec /F etc... /<pkg variable> = "servername"
Each of the parent and the called package have a variable: "User::DWServerSQLInstance" which is mapped to the SQL server connection manager server name property using an expression. The outer package has the above variable and so does the inner called package (which gets assigned through the command line from the outerpackage call to inner)
I "sometimes" get the following error:
OnError,I4,TESTDOMAdministrator,ACDWAggregation,{A1F8E43F-15F1-4685-8C18-6866AB31E62B},{77B2F3C7-6756-46EB-8C01-D880598FB4B3},5/22/2006 5:10:28 PM,5/22/2006 5:10:28 PM,-1073659822,0x,The variable "User::DWServerSQLInstance" is already on the read list. A variable may only be added once to either the read lock list or the write lock list.
Help would be appreciated!
I have seen other posts on this but, not able to relate the solution to my scenario.

Hi All,
I have seen a few other people have this error.
Package works fine when run from BIDS, DTExec, dtexecui. When I schedule it, It get these random errors. (See below)
The main culprit is a variable called "RecordsetFileDIR" which is set using an expression. (@[User::_ROOT] + "RecordSets\")
A number of other variables use this as part of their expression and as they all fail, pretty much everything dies.
I have installed SP1 (Not Beta) on server. Package uses config files to set the value of _ROOT.
The error does not always seem to be with this particular variable though. Always a variable that uses an expression but errors are random. Also, It will run 3 out of 10 times without a problem. I am the only person on the server at the time.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Crispin

Hi,
I want to lock a table so others cannot lock it but able to read it inside transactions.
The coding I need is something like this: set implicit_transactions on begin transaction select * from table1 with (tablock, holdlock) update table2 set field1 = 'test' commit transaction commit transaction
I have tried the coding above, it won't prevent others from locking table1.
So, I changed the tablock to tablockx to prevent others from locking table1. But this will also prevent others from reading table1. So, how can I lock table1 so others cannot lock it but still able to read it?
Thank you for any help
Hello everyone,I have a web project where users access a aspx page to view information stored in an SQL database.My client want that one user can access a row of information and see it, all other users shouldn't be able to view or update the same row?it means whenever a row of data is displayed by some user, this row should be locked even for beeing viewed by all other users, when this user close this page, this row will be available. ?I should do this in code behind or something in sql...How can I do that???

View 3 Replies View RelatedHello,
An application we are designing is behaving rather strangely. Basically, we
have a trigger on SQL 2000 on W2K Server watching for a record update. When
that happens a stored procedure gets executed which in turn spawns a VB that extracts that record, applies some rules to it, and writes a text file to disk. 9 out of 10 times, this program will cause a CPU spin, and it can't be killed from the Task Manager.
I did not write the VB app, I am writing the front end for the application in ColdFusion, but I need some ideas on what might be causing such behavior and how can the problem can be diagnosed. Thanks for any help!

Is it good practice to use WITH (NO LOCK) on SELECT statements, ie
SELECT * FROM MyTable WITH(NO LOCK)
Or does the SQL Server optimiser automatically use WITH (NO LOCK) ?

Hello,
Wondering if anyone might have a guess about this.
I have a small 4 table DB. it's got several stored proc's and it's accessed through .NET to fill it in and get data from it.
It's been working just fine. But this morning, while it was doing its thing, I experimented with it by adding then deleting a View (through the View Wizard.)
Then later I started noticing that my .Net calls had slowed to a crawl (I hadn't made any code changes)and even making direct queries through Query Analyzer had slowed too.
My question is: being that there were no network issues, could the View create/delete have caused the DB to come to a halt or perhaps a table lock-up?
While I'm at it, is there anything that I can put in stored proc's or other places to prevent locking issues (if that's what happened here.)
I already use Begin/Commit Tran pairs.
And sorry if this post doesn't read like a SQL beginner, but believe me, I am.
Thanks for your advice!!

Lets say i have a view.
vuTestingNoLocks
this view looks like this...
Create View vuTestingNoLocks as
SElect *
From dbo.Employees
inner Join dbo.EmployeeTerritories on EmployeeTerritories.EmployeeID = Employees.EmployeeID
If I select from this view using Select * From vuTestingNoLocks (NOLOCK)
Does the (nolock) command propegate down through the tables? Meaning will it scan tables that are locked still ignoring their locks?
I'm working with SQL Server Express, and I want to configure a named instance so that only the 'sa' user and a specified SQL Server user with a specified password have access. In particular, I'm trying to lock out BUILTINAdministrators. Furthermore, I need to be able to do this from a command-line, since I want to configure it in a script. Nothing I do seems to work.
I've attempted to use sqlcmd and the T-SQL call ALTER LOGIN [BUILTINAdministrators] DISABLE, but that returns the error "Cannot alter the login 'BUILTINAdministrators' because it does not exist or you do not have permission."
What I can (apparently) successfully do is run DENY CONTROL TO [BUILTINAdministrators]. This runs without reporting an error. However, after running it against the 'master' database and the specific database in my named instance I care about, I can still run the following:
sqlcmd -S (local)MyInstance -d MyDB -Q "select * from my_table"
and see the contents of my_table.
What do I need to do to restrict access exclusively to 'sa' and other SQL users I designate?

hi all iam working on a ticketing application i want to avoid two users to book the same ticket the requirement is as follows
1. the system should show all the available tickets which is not yet booked
2.when two users book the ticket at the same time time it should not allow the two persons to update at the same tme
the main aim is to avoid data concurency
how can i get this done
Hi,all:
This problem almost drives me crazy, hope I can get some hints from you guyz!!!
Ok, here is the situation:
I wanna only one users 2 modify the data(update) from my page each time, and if at the same time, there are some other users connecting my database through .aspx page, they can only browse the data until the first users finish updating.
It seems I need to implement locking the database, but I am not sure how I am gonna do that using asp.net!!!
Thanx in advance!
