Hi,
I am trying to find something like a light version of SQL Server 2k to store data for an application that will be distributed through a cd.
Since we also have a web front end for this application when the user is online, we prefer that we can reuse the code for connection on both the cd and the web.
Any idea what will work?
I have come accross MSDE 2k but was not able to find any documentation on the pros and cons for this product regarding its capacity, the type of data it can handle, security, ...
Please give me some pointer.
Thanks very much.

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi all,
We just bought a server with 2 quad core xeon processors to host a web application with reporting services.
Our reports are quite heavy. I wrote custom data processing extensions for them and some take up to 45 minutes to render.
When a web user runs more than one report at the same time, only one of the eight available cores is processing the request. When two different web users are each running a single report, the same thing happens. It looks like no matter how many reports are running at the same time, only one core chokes.
I would like to be able to execute each report request on a different core. How could a change my data processing extension or my Reporting Services settings to achieve that?
Any help would be appreciated,
Dom.
I would like to distribute some data in SqlServer Express which only my application can read from.
My question is - is it possible to secure a database so that only a specified user would have read/write permissions. Even the sa acount should not have the permission to read or write to the database although it would retain the right to drop the database.
One option I believe is to encrypt the data but I would prefer not to incur the performance penalty associated with this.
Any insights would be appreciated.
Thanks
i've been looking at moving one of our processed from excel (+vba) into t-sql to make life easier but am stuck.
We have lots of tasks that are assigned to work groups which we want to distribute evenly across the work groups. This is a simple task for ntile.. However when these tasks are no longer required they are removed which leaves the groups uneven. When new tasks are added we want to still try to keep these groups balanced.
EG Existing groups :
GroupName - Task Count
Group1 - 1000
Group2 - 999
Group3 - 998
If we were to add 6 new tasks they would have more assigned to Group 2 & 3 as they have less than group 1.
Task 1 - Group3
Task 2 - Group3
Task 3 -Group2
Task 4 - Group1
Task 5 - Group2
Task 6 - Group3
Sample tables
Create table GroupTable
(GroupID int, Name varchar(200) )
Insert into GroupTable values (1,'Group1')
Insert into GroupTable values (2,'Group2')
Insert into GroupTable values (3,'Group3')
Create table Jobs(jobid int identity(1,1), name varchar(100),Groupid int)
--Existing tasks
Insert into Jobs(name,Groupid) values ('Task1',1)
Insert into Jobs(name,Groupid) values ('Task2',1)
Insert into Jobs(name,Groupid) values ('Task3',1)
Insert into Jobs(name,Groupid) values ('Task4',1)
Insert into Jobs(name,Groupid) values ('Task5',2)
Insert into Jobs(name,Groupid) values ('Task6',2)
Insert into Jobs(name,Groupid) values ('Task6',2)
Insert into Jobs(name,Groupid) values ('Task7',3)
-- New tasks
Insert into Jobs(name) values ('TaskA')
Insert into Jobs(name) values ('TaskB')
Insert into Jobs(name) values ('TaskC')
Insert into Jobs(name) values ('TaskD')
Insert into Jobs(name) values ('TaskE')
Insert into Jobs(name) values ('TaskF')
This gives us 6 unassigned tasks and a uneven group assignment
GROUPNAME TASK_COUNT
<none> 6
Group1 4
Group2 3
Group3 2
This means the new tasks will be assigned like this
TaskA - Group3
TaskB - Group3
TaskC - Group2
TaskD - Group1
TaskE - Group2
TaskF - Group3

I am a pretty new in the development world fresh from uni. I am doing development on a system that has a security database. Access to the data in that database is pretty important. So in case the main server where the database is stored for soem reason fails or gets compromised i need to have a second copy with the most recent data in that database and keep the application up and running. The data i have is stored in a SQL 2005 database. What are the recomended aproaches for acheiving this needed reliability?
Would running the SQL Agent every 2 minutes do the trick? And replicate the database to another server and then have asecondary deployment on that server running as a backup? Or are there any other means?
Any advice is apreciated.
Sincerely
I was all set to build some triggers on some modified date tables when in the last minute I found out that the application (built in C#) was controlling the after update trigger.
Is there a tool you can use in SSMS to see if there is a connection set up like this?

Hello,
We just converted one of our commercial applications over to using SQL Server. We have a database that is about 700megs in size, what I want to know is how is one suppose to actually deploy a database in an automated install? I have created T-SQL insert scripts, but it is 764M in size, and it takes forever to read the script in to send to the SQL Server. So I am looking for suggestions on how to actually do this.
Thanks

Hey guys,
I'm really new to this so this might look dumb, but I need to know what all has to be done to develop a standalone database application.....The frontend is going to be on VC++...which are the best tools I'll need to use. I need to know if the user has to install the database app to use the program to make this possible......Also will he have to keep it running everytime to use the program.
Thanks a lot for you time and patience,

I added a database named appdata to the app_data folder to hold temporary application data. I want to show this data in a report. I created a dataset and an object to select the data. I then created an report.fdlc and a report.aspx with a ReportViewer on it pointing to the dataset object. If I right click on the report.aspx and View in Browser, it work perfectly. But when I upload it to the server I get and browse to it I get (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified). The server does allow remote connections. So I am thinking it's my connection string of the fact that the server doesn't have Sql Server Express.?
Here's my connection string. What am I missing here?
<add name="appdataConnectionString"
connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|appdata.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
Hi All, I will shortly (hopefully) begin devleoping an ASP.Net web application to let users manage a remote sql server 2005 database (kind of like the php myAdmin tool for MySQL databases). Were not talking a server managament tool for DBAs, more an end user tool for managing personal databases (it seems that web hosting companies provide tools for MySQL, but if you use SQL Server, you're stuck unless you have management tools on your PC - and what about mac users?).Given that premise, what features should i attempt to include? Creating and modifying tables structures and data is an obvious inclusion, but what else? I also haven't yet decided whether to go about this using scripts or using SMO. I've read that SMO is backwards compatible across versions of SQL Server...how true is this? are there issues or is it seamless? Please post any comments or thoughts you have, and thanks for taking the time.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have tried to find all the threads related to this topic. At this point I would like to find out what the best practices are for doing this. I plan to use Membership, Roles, and the login controls to handle my authentication and permissions issues. I want to use the same database for my application data as for Application Services, using a standard SQL Server. So far, the easiest way to set this up that I can think of is to:1. Use aspnet_regsql.exe to create the Application Services Database schema2. Edit the "LocalSqlServer" entry in <connectionStrings> to point to the above database3. Add the tables, views, stored procedures, etc., that I need for my application into the database created in step 1Is there any more configuration I need to do to get Membership and Roles working? When I did the Walkthrough, step 2 seemed to be the only requirement for getting Membership and Roles to work.Will I run into any trouble using LocalSqlServer for my application data updates?I would be interested in any other approaches to setting up a combined database, including opinions why and why not to do it.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi there,
Has anyone ever encountered problems making .Net applications connect to a SQL database on SQL 2000 with SP3a?
It's running on a virtual machine with a Windows Server 2000 Std with SP4, the .Net application is working with .Net Framework 1.1.4322.573. For some reason it can't connect to the SQL database using the specified username and password in the web.config file even though the user exists in the SQL database. I've tried using the SA password but this still doesn't work. I can logon to SQL Query Analyzer using the SA password but not using the other username.
The .Net application does work on other systems of mine all of which can run on Windows Server 2000 and 2003, I have compared them but can't find any differences.
Any ideas anybody?
Thanks,
Chris

Hello,
I was wondering if someone could help me answer this question.
If I had a site like Yahoo, that constantly had users accessing it. Would it be a good or bad idea to automatically open a database connection to SQL Server on Application Start? What would you recommend? Would opening and closing the DB connection on every page save alot of overhead and bottleneck? Thank You.
