Detaching And Attaching A Database For My Project
Mar 22, 2008
I hope this is the right forum for this question.
I am working with an asp.net project in Visual Web Developer 2005 Express. This is a starter kit project. There is a database that came with the project that I want to open up in the SQL Server 2005 Express management studio so that I can modify it.
I have detached the db in the VWD environment.But, I do not see this db in the db folder with in the SQL Server studio's IDE. I am assuming that I have to attach the database to the SQL Server management studio in order to work with it. Is this the correct way to do this type of thing? Is there a better way of doing it(a stored proc like mentioned below)?
I also have a question about the icons that pertain to this situation. I have noticed two variations of the same icon. I want to be sure I am interpretting these correctly. I am assuming that the icon that is a cylinder representing a db with the little
electrical plug coming out from behind it means that the db is attached. There is another version of this icon that has a red "x" over the plug. I am assuming that this means it is detached. Is this correct?
I have attached and detached dbs in Sql Server Express. Is the process the same for doing this with a project in Visual Web Developer? Is there a stored proc that I can use to detach from the SQL Server 2005 environment after I have made a database and attach this to my project in VWD in one step?
-thanks in advance

Q1.)In SQL Server 2000, is it always possible to use copies of thedata and transaction log files of a database from one server toreattach to a new database on another server, or even to the sameserver, without first detaching from the existing database?Books Online says that detaching a database closes the data and logfiles cleanly. I read some where that some times, it is possible toattach without detaching, if the data and log file are in stablestate.This is what I tried - Tried to copy Northwind.mdf and ldf files usingwindows explorer and it gave an error message that the files are inuse. I shutdown the server and now I could easily copy them. Afterthat I renamed these files and successfully attached them as a newdatabase.Q2.)Is it possible to do the same with large production databases?Q3.) Please explain what goes on during detaching /attaching process.Thanks in advanceRavi

Hi
I have to migrate a SQL2000 database to SQL2005, I tried to use CopyDatabase Wizard (CDW) but invariably stopped all processes (may be for permissions, but I really I don€™t know) so I decided to detach de database, copy files to new server and attach it to SQL2005, it apparently works well, except for the fact that Schemas where created with the name of the users of SQL2000.
Is that correct?
Could it affect the performance or any other thing?
Is correct to do what I did?
Could be another problem in the recently attached database?
(Compatibility, data loss, corrupted structures, collation or something like that)
The server I am using is in a domain, it has windows server 2003 R2 SP2

I've been using my DotNetNuke database for weeks on my local PC with SQL Server Express. It attaches as a "User Instance". Basically, I am using all the DotNetNuke defaults. Today I decided to attach the DotNetNuke database in SQL Server Management Studio Express and peek at the tables. I attached the database; then I detached it when I was done. This all went well. But when I tried to open my DotNetNuke web site again I now get a message that it cannot connect. Attaching and detaching the database in SQL Server Management Studio obviously changed something about the database, but I don't know what. My connection string to the database has not changed.
The specific error displayed in the browser is:
ERROR: Could not connect to database specified in connectionString for SqlDataProvider
In event viewer is this message:
Exception information:
Exception type: SqlException
Exception message: Cannot open user default database. Login failed.
Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE'.
My connection string is this:
<add name="SiteSqlServer" connectionString="Data Source=.SQLExpress;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|Database.mdf;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
Any suggestions about how I can correct this?

Hi,
Im not new to SQL Server but I am new to v.2005. We have done a class project and to finish up I am creating schemas, logins and different user roles and permissions.
I now need to detach the DB and send it to our team leader for submission. I'm scared to do this because I don't know if all the logins and passwords I've created will appear in it's new location. Will they be there in the new server's security folder just as I created them or will they dissapear into the ether?

I am currently having a problem in the implementation of a Database for my C#.net winform application.
Look at the 2 diagrams below:
Diagram 1 : A typical databse design where it usees only 1 mdf file.
Diagram 2: A new proposed approach to implement the Database with multiple mdf files of the same schema!!
In the new proposal of the DB, each mdf files is kept separately and an additional module is required to attach and detach these databases as and when required. The purpose: the performance of all actions on the small data is not affected by the size of the large data
How does this 2 methods measure up in terms of resource usage, performance, etc??
Need comments and views. Thanks.

All,
I wanted to to detach a DB say MyDB from MSDE and wanted to attach it to SQL Express.
It could able to Detach the DB from MSDE,but attachment to SQL 2005 is failing. When I verified MSDE Instance through Managment studio "MyDB" wasnot there ; means it got detached.I couldnt find the DB in SQL 2005. When I tried manually through command prompt I was able to attach "MyDB" to SQL2005.
Please help me out!!
Here is the code which I have written.
if SUCCEEDED(hr = CoCreateInstance (CLSID_SQLDMOServer, NULL, CLSCTX_INPROC_SERVER,
IID_ISQLDMOServer, (LPVOID*)&pSQLServer))
{
pSQLServer->SetLoginSecure (TRUE);
SQLDMO_LPCSTR DB = OLESTR("MyDB");
//Connect to MSDE First
if SUCCEEDED(hr = pSQLServer->Connect (szDbServer, szUserName, szPassword))
{
pSQLServer->DetachDB(DB,lpszResult); //Detach the DB
pSQLServer->DisConnect(); //Disconnect MSDE
LPBSTR lpszResult2 = NULL;
long lNumDB;
//Connect to SQL 2005
if SUCCEEDED(hr = pSQLServer->Connect (szSQLExpDbServer, szUserName, szPassword))
{
//LPCOLESTR lpo = A2COLE(sTemp);
//sTemp.operator LPCTSTR
pSQLServer->GetDatabaseCount (&lNumDB);
SQLDMO_LPCSTR files = OLESTR("C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQLData\MyDB.mdf,C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL\Data\MyDB_log.ldf");
pSQLServer->AttachDB(DB,files,lpszResult2); // Attach the DB to SQL 2005

I have SQL Express 2005 SP2 installed in my Vista Home Premium. I am using SQL Server Management Studio Express to manage .mdf.
When I click "Add..." to attach .mdf database, I have this prompt error message :
The server principal "My-PCMyName" is not able to access the database "model" under the current security context. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 916)
I have elevated the rights, "Run as administrator", of my SQL Server Management Studio Express, but still having problem.
I also encounter security error when detaching the existing .mdf :
The EXECUTE permission was denied on the object 'sp_detach_db', database 'mssqlsystemresource', schema 'sys'. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 229)
Please advice. Thanks.

Since the "Cannot Open User Default Database (error 4064)" thread is closed, and I had this same error, I'd thought I'd leave the solution that worked for me since I spent about 2 hours researching this problem. After detaching my database, then reattaching it, I couldn't log back in with my login ID. I could get in using the sa account. I could also log in with my login ID if I set the default database to master using SQL Server Management Studio by navigating to Security, Logins, right-clicking my login ID, then setting the default database to master. However, this isn't a solution, because I need my login ID to default to the database I reattached, not master.
One way of resolving this is to set the new Login ID as the owner. Right click the database under Databases in Management Studio, choose Properties, choose Files, then set the owner with the new login ID. I can then connect to the reattached database with my login ID. If I set the owner back to sa, I can't connect with my login ID, I have to use sa. If someone has a solution to relink my new login ID and the user with the same name so I can log in with sa set as the owner, I'd love to hear it. I can't make that work.
BTW, if I go under Logins, right click my new login ID, choose properties, then User Mapping, my reattached database is selected under Users mapped to this login. However, the Users and Default Schema columns are both set to dbo.

For some reason in a Team Foundation Team Project that has multiple project types (SSRS, SSIS, WebSite, C# Business DLL...), the SSIS project makes itself the startup project to the team project. If I explicitly set another project as the startup project to the team project and then select an SSIS package in the SSIS project in the team project, the SSIS project becomes the startup project automatically.
I am using Visual Studio 2005 SP1.

The situation :
I am making mass changes to my program and database.
The goal is to not make changes to the database at the customer sites, but to clone their current database, and work with that one.
The solution:
I wrote code and queries to detach the database, copy it to another directory on the same computer with a different name, then attach it with the new name.
The process is:
run : sp_detach_db "' + aDatabase + '", ''false'';' (aDatabase is the original database name)
Then, in code, delete the original .ldf file, and copy the database.mdf file to new directory with new name.
then run (for both the new and the original databases):
Create Database "' + aDatabase + '" on
(NAME = ''' + aDatabase + ''', FILENAME = ''' + FormatFilePath(aPath) + aDatabase + '.mdf''
For Attach
This works, up to a point.
The problem :
When I inspect the properties of the newly attached database, with the new name and new directory, the logical name of the database is still the original name.
I TRIED running this query :
sp_attach_single_file_db @dbName= "' + aDatabase + '",'
@physname= ''' + FormatFilePath(aPath) + aDatabase + '.mdf'
but it returns(even though I have deleted the .ldf files for the original dataset) :
Could not open new database 'Test62'. CREATE DATABASE is aborted.
Cannot create file 'E:Data6Test62Test62_log.LDF' because it already exists. Change the file path or the file name, and retry the operation.
File activation failure. The physical file name "E:Data6TestTest_log.LDF" may be incorrect.
(original database name = data6 est est, new database name is data6 est62 est62)
Is there a way to do this? Or do I just need to give it up?

Hi,
I wanted to create a removable SQL Server 7.0 database. So I created the database using the sp_create_removable system stored procedure, imported objects and data, ensured that the database is configured properly for distribution on removable media (using sp_certify_removable system stored procedure), and detached it from original SQL Server. So far, so good. The database consists of 3 files: MYDB_SYS, MYDB_DATA and MYDB_LOG. I copied
MYDB_DATA on a CD, and MYDB_SYS and MYDB_LOG on hard disk of a different server. If I execute the following statement:
Execute sp_attach_db
@dbname = 'MYDB'
, @filename1 = 'C:MYDB_SYS.MDF'
, @filename2 = 'E:MYDB_DATA.NDF'
, @filename3 = 'C:MYDB_LOG.LDF'
I get the following messages:
Server: Msg 5105, Level 16, State 4, Line 1
Device activation error. The physical file name 'E:MYDB_DATA.NDF' may be incorrect.
Server: Msg 945, Level 14, State 1, Line 1
Database 'MYDB' cannot be opened because some of the files could not be activated.
Server: Msg 1813, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Could not open new database 'MYDB'. CREATE DATABASE is aborted.
I can successfully execute the above statement if I make MYDB_SYS.MDF file read only, but then MYDB is created as read only, and this option can not be changed.
Please, help.

Today I installed SQLEXPR.EXE that I found here:
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?ProdName=Microsoft+SQL+Server&ProdVer=09.00.3042&EvtSrc=MSSQLServer&EvtID=5120&LinkId=20476
I made sure that I downloaded the 64-bit version.
I then wanted to download and install the Adventure Works database located here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=E719ECF7-9F46-4312-AF89-6AD8702E4E6E&displaylang=en
Since I am running Vista 64-bit, I downloaded and installed AdventureWorksDB_x64. It wouldn't install. I got "Access is denied" and CREATE FILE error plus several others.
I then uninstalled it and downloaded AdventureWorksDB - this is the X86 version. It installed fine.
Can anyone explain what am I missing? Thanks!

Hi Mike,
I've had a look at the white paper on use instances and also stopped using Management Studio, as you suggested. The problem is that I can run my application from VWD quite happily, until for no reason the application can't connect to the database. This happens ramdomly and is very frustrating. I have worked out a way to correct this problem with the following method (I don't know if this is correct but it's the only work around I know.
1) I close down VWD and open Management Studio,
2) I right click to attach a database, and then navigate to the .mdf file for the database, and click to attach it. I then delete the existing icon for that database (which I can't acess anyway, it only shows me the main icon but not the tables)
3) I rename the new instance of the database to the correct name (minus path info etc)
4) I create an SQL script as follows:
EXEC sp_grantlogin 'jonASPNET'
(This line executes correctly),
Then I enter these lines:
USE BalloonShop *name of database *
EXEC sp_grantdbaccess 'jonASPNET'
(At this stage when I execute the query, Management Studio informs me that this name already exists in the database and so doesn't execute)
5) I now close out of Management Studio and re-open VWD, and I can now run my application correctly.
I know I've got some configuration settings wrong somewhere but I find the whole user instance thing confusing. For the record I'm running the appllication through VWD's built in web server, I did originally have it through IIS but I moved it (this will explain the confusion of locations from my first post, I gave you the original location, sorry about that).
Any advice you can give would be gratefully recieved, ie is there an easy way to reconfigure my settings to make everything work as expected or have I got to start the database again from scratch (not a pleasent thought). Also is there an idiots guide to SQL Server Express anywhere that I can read.
Jon
ps I've just realised that I get the 'can't connect to database problem when running the application after I've made a change to the database from VWD ie adding a new stored proceedure, Don't know if this helps, but better you get the full picture.

I've created a simple database using Visual Web Developer Express.
I is located in "C:Documents and SettingsRomanMy DocumentsVisual Studio 2005WebSitesNewSiteApp_Data" Folder.
When I try to attach this database using SQL SERVER Management Studio Express: it doesn't allow me to view the contents of "C:Documents and SettingsRoman" Folder - it just won't expand any further!!!!!
Anyone had a similar problem. I think it is some sort of a bug, maybe
Please help!
Thanx
Michael

Hi Mike,
I hope you can help me with my SQL Server Express problem. I have a database that was created in VWD Express 2005, that is currently in C:web projectsproject nameApp data...etc. I have been able to connect to and use the database with an application that I am building as a learning exercise, ( I'm a complete newbie to .NET and SQL Server) but now I can't connect to the database from SQL Server manager.
I have tried attaching the file which has worked a few times, but now that won't work either. I keep getting a message that the file can't be found or I do not have sufficient permissions to access it. I can connnect to the file fine from within VWD, but because of the above problem I can't now run the application (it throws an exception).
I suspect that I've got some of the basic configuration settings wrong, but I really don't know where to start looking. Below is an example of one of the messages I've been getting
Failed to retrieve data for this request. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Express.SmoEnum)
CREATE FILE encountered operating system error 32(error not found) while attempting to open or create the physical file 'C:InetpubwwwrootBalloonShopApp_DataBalloonShop.mdf'. (.Net SqlClient Data Provider)
Any help would be very gratefully recieved
regards
jon

Howdy Folks,
I have a site on WS2003, IIS 6 installed on c:.
I put the site in a folder on d:. Nothing else is on d: except the web site.
I added a new website in IIS and pointed to the site on d:.
Using the default connectionString in machine.config, I am unable to connect to ASPNETDB.MDF. Therefors, I can not log in.
In SQL Server Management Studio Express, I attached ASPNETDB.MDF. I then am able to log in.
Does ASPNETDB.MDF have to be manually attched like this when the web site is located on a drive othr than where IIS is installed and running?
Thanks
