I am having a serious problem of removing and adding again an user in a
database.

Somehow, the user was created earlier but was not able to run query
assigned to him. As a result I wanted to drop and recreate the user.
I have done many possible things to create the users again with the
same user id but failed.
1. I tried to delete this user from the enterprsie manager security-->
logins-->user1
It deletes but when I try to add again, it gives me error message
(Error 15023: user or role u'user1' already exist).
2. Then I tried in the db:
delete sysusers where name='user1'
it deletes the user1.
3. Again tried adding, got the message in 1.
4. Then I tried
use db1
EXEC sp_change_users_login 'Update_One', 'user1', 'user1'
Server: Msg 15291, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_change_users_login,
Line 88
Terminating this procedure. The User name 'user1' is absent or invalid.
I also tried master database and ran the following.
EXEC sp_droplogin 'user1'
The login 'user1' does not exist.
But If I try to add the login user1, get the error message.
Error 15023: user or role u'user1' already exist
I also ran the following when I got Ad hoc error message
execute sp_configure "allow updates",1
go
reconfigure with override
go
Could you please tell me how I can solve this problem.
We have been working on an application that will be using a forms-authenticated report server (RS2005) as a reporting back-end. Using the reporting services web service I have been able to assign permissions to objects in reporting services no problem. The issue is that each user needs to be added to the System User role to be able to use the report builder properly. I can't seem to find a way to do this programmatically. Any idea?
I try to add a db_role or a user to all my databases with one script. Although parsing doesn't report any problem I get a Syntax error during execution. I first select the database names into a #temp table which has two columns, ID and dbname. After that I use the following code:
Had a user created from a local NT account called joe. Used mixed mode athentication. Things are fine.
Later, we needed to add all users from primary domain account (domain2joe), and not have users on all the local servers (joe). Instead central athentication. So I removed the SQL user bill(that was there from local NT account), then went ahead and added the same username, but from a different domain (domain2joe). (same SQL username!) Now when I go into database access to grant user joe access to database1, SQL complains saying that the user already exists. I check the database1 and the user isn't there. BUT, the user bill exists on the SQL role "public" of that database.
I can I add this user and grant access to database1 when SQL thinks the user already exists? How do I remove user from public role?
I am having problem to find the right syntax to DROP a column with contrainst and recrate it I get an error
if exists ( select * from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS where TABLE_NAME='myTable' and COLUMN_NAME='myDate' ) ALTER TABLE [dbo].[myTable] DROP COLUMN myDate GO
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[myTable] WITH NOCHECK ADD myDate datetime CONSTRAINT [DF_myDate] DEFAULT (GetDate()) GO
Query Analyser says : Server: Msg 5074, Level 16, State 1, Line 5 The object 'DF_myDate' is dependent on column 'myDate'. Server: Msg 4922, Level 16, State 1, Line 5 ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN myDate failed because one or more objects access this column. Server: Msg 2705, Level 16, State 4, Line 2 Column names in each table must be unique. Column name 'myDate' in table 'dbo.myTable' is specified more than once.
I have two transaction log files, one on C drive and other on D drive. I want to drop the file from that database that is on C drive. Can anyone help me out on this with complete syntax.
I have taken a down time of one and half hour to accomplish this task
Here is what think
Take a full database backup Take transaction log backup Shrinkfile using DBCC with truncateonly option emptyfile using dbcc or drop file using alter database remove
I just upgraded from SQL2000 to SQL 2005. When I have a query opened for a database already and I want to drag and drop a script in, I get the login box. Is there anyway to get this to not happen? I would like it that when I drag and drop the script it is just loaded in a new query with the database connection that I was using already. (This is what it did in SQL2000) Thanks.
I get the following error message while droping unique index.
Server: Msg 3723, Level 16, State 5, Line 1 An explicit DROP INDEX is not allowed on index 'dbo.ALEG.IX_ALEG'. It is being used for UNIQUE KEY constraint enforcement.
Anybody had experience dropping the system generated index?
I tried to drop some auto-generated index which usually have name like _WA_Sys_[column name}_07F6335A. Then I follow the table.index name rule. It always show no such index exists in the database. But I can query these indexes in sysindexes and verify they are there. What went wrong?
I'm familiar with how to check for the existence of a table before dropping it using the following command:
if exists (select * from dbo.sysobjects where id = object_id(N'[dbo].[xxx]') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable') = 1) drop table [dbo].[xxx]
How does one check for the existence of a temp table (using # syntax) before dropping it? I've tried various flavors of this command and none work. One flavor is
use tempdb if exists (select * from dbo.sysobjects where id = object_id(N'[dbo].[#xxx]') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsUserTable') = 1) drop table [dbo].[#xxx]
CREATE TABLE #xxx ( NumID INTEGER IDENTITY(1,1), Exhibitor_Id INTEGER NOT NULL, Company_Id INTEGER NOT NULL )
I have a database that is about 300 gig. I am setting up replication to a reporting server. We are doing a series or mock loads and I will need drop the tables and reload the main database a few times before we go live. To do that I plan to stop replication and drop all the articles, drop the subscription, then load the new data, then reinitialize and restart replication.
The first time I tried to do this, when I drop the articles, it seems to be trying to "clean up" the distribution database on the reporting server and that is taking a couple of hours to do. The disruption database is about 40 gig.
Is this correct behavior in SQL2005 replication? Is there a way to avoid this? I have all the replication pieces scripted out and would like to just drop replication, reload, and then run my scripts to recreate replication. But this "clean up" is going to cause me a lot of headache if I don't figure out what is going on.
Am I going down the wrong road here? Is there an easier way to do this? Any comments would be great!!!!
i'm trying to add a new user to a certain database directly through the users section in this database, but i was given an error that i can't and nothin was added, so i tried adding this user from the Logins section, a pop up message showed saying that this user already exists knowing that it doesn't when i try to create a user from the Logins in a different username it worked but the problem is i can't change the user i must stick with the username that is not working. how can i fix it??
Hi, I'm able to connect to my db using ASP.NET, but now I need to connect with ASP. I need to add a user like <computer name>ASP( I already have <computer name>ASPNET) using windows authentication to the db. I cannot seem find the way to do this in SQL Server management Studio, because it tells me that it doesn't find that group. Where can I add this user?Thanks a lot.
I am trying to add a user in every database. So far I have tried using a cursor - Wont work because you cannot issue Use @database_name within the cursor. I have also tried master.dbo.sp_MsForeachdb "exec sp_grantdbaccess 'user'" this does not work either as it addes the user to the first database then doesnt cycle through. I also tried fully qualifying the sp_grantdbaccess with master.dbo.sp_grantdbaccess.
If you have a way of doing this i would appreciate some help.
In Ms SQL 2000, I want to be able to share my database with another user butI only want them to be able to look at the database and not be able tochange anything.Does anyone know how I go about doing this?
I have inserted a new NT user via the Security Manager applet into a group associated with two databases. Now when I select 'Logins' from the Server Manager window and then double-click the newly added user, I receive this message 'Error 21770: The name '<NT username>' was not found in the Users collection.'
Can anyone please explain the above error message.
I currently have a sql server 2000 sp4 instance with a read-only db on it. We get tlogs shipped from an outside vendor and keep a copy of the production database in house for reporting purposes. The database is in read-only mode because we apply new tlogs daily. Recently we did a full recover and applied 2 tlogs.
The issue: There is a user YYY in the database and at the server level, but they aren't linked. So I do what I usually do and run the following command:
Server: Msg 3906, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_change_users_login, Line 109 Could not run BEGIN TRANSACTION in database 'ZZZ' because the database is read-only.
Now this error makes sense and I understand why, so my question is how do I fix the users not being linked?
This is driving me crazy! The SQL Statement refenced is shown at the end of this email.
When I try and run the statement, an error is raised saying that Undrawn_GT5MIL_LE365Days is invalid (likewise for Undrawn_LE5MIL_LE365Days). From what I can gather, it is saying that I cannot include a User Defined variable in another argument. This is unlike Access. Any suggestions?
SQL View.......
SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT QRY_FacNew_Term.Category, QRY_FacNew_Term.Fac_No, QRY_FacNew_Term.Client_Number, QRY_FacNew_Term.Client_Name,
Undrawn_GT5MIL_LE365Days = CASE WHEN Undrawn_CDN >= 5000000 AND Term <= 365 THEN Undrawn_CDN ELSE 0 END,
Undrawn_GT5MIL_GT365Days = CASE WHEN (Undrawn_CDN >= 5000000 AND Term > 365) OR
(Cr_Limit_CDN IN (0, 1)) THEN Undrawn_CDN ELSE 0 END, [Undrawn_GT5MIL_LE365Days]+[Undrawn_GT5MIL_GT365Days] AS Total
I have an ASP.NET 2 external application that is using and mix of the web services and tables/sps available from my 2005 SSRS.
I want to add an authenticated user from the external application. I don't see a web service that will do this. I have been through the SP's and can create roles, authenticated users, policies etc. But I think I need to update the XmlDescription field in the SecData table.
Do I need to build this XML string from scratch or is there a function / sp / web service that will do this. XML is a long ways from my strong suit.
Or am I just crazy and I should redirect my users to the Security tab!
The current setup is as follows: SQL 2005 64bit v9.0.3054 Windows 2003 SP2
Problem: When trying to add an AD user to SQL, I receive error 15401
Background: The user's last name was recently changed and so all relevant AD fields were appropriately changed: Lastname, Displayname, E-mail, UserLogonname, UserLogonname (pre-Windows 2000). The user's previous email account has not been changed except for additional email addresses to account for the new name and old name. Also note, the uses Exchange alias is still the previous account name.
When I enter the user's new account name into the Login Name field in SQL I recieve the 15401 error. When I do a search for the user's new account name SQL finds the previous account name and not the new one. I have reviewed KN 324321 and that article does not resolve this error. The user account can be found be only using the original account name and not the new one.
On the same SQL server, I opened the security settings for a folder and added the new user's account name and it was found. I then had it search for the user's old login name and it could not find it.
I've created an rdl report in reporting services 2005. Report is working fine. I've deployed this report on SQL Server 2005. The problem is this that to access the reports from client, I need to add client's login ID in Administrator user's group os server. If I dont add them in that group, it shows following error:
"The permissions granted to user 'loginname' are insufficient for performing this operation. (rsAccessDenied)".
This solution works fine in development but in actual environment, I can't add users in that group. Can anyone tell me how to view reports without adding user in administrator group. Its urgent.
Hi, Apologies in advance if you get confused by reading this.... I am trying to create an additional step in the Create Wizard User Control that is provided by ASP.net. The additional step that I want to add will come after a user will create their username, password, email etc. The information which I want to save in the extra step are details such as firstname, lastname, address, height, weight etc. (I am creating an online weight management system for dieticians).When I run through the application, the username, password etc save perfectly to the database, but nothing happens with the other "personal information". There are no errors thrown so I don't know where the problem is coming from.I have included the code below as I have it:The code behind the Register.aspx file is as follows: <asp:SqlDataSource ID="InsertExtraInfo" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:ASPNETDBConnectionString1 %>" InsertCommand="INSERT INTO [aspnet_UserInformation] ([first_name], [surname], [address1], [address2], [city], [country], [number], [height], [weight]) VALUES (@txtFirstName, @txtSurname, @txtAddress1, @txtAddress2, @txtCity, @txtCountry, @txtNumber, @txtHeight, @txtWeight)" ProviderName="<%$ ConnectionStrings:ASPNETDBConnectionString1.ProviderName %>"> <InsertParameters> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtFirstName" Type="String" ControlID="txtFirstName" PropertyName="Text" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtSurname" Type="String" ControlID="txtSurname" PropertyName="Text" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtAddress1" Type="String" ControlID="txtAddress1" PropertyName="Text" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtAddress2" Type="String" ControlID="txtAddress2" PropertyName="Text" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtCity" Type="String" ControlID="txtCity" PropertyName="Text" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtCountry" Type="String" ControlID="txtCountry" PropertyName="Text" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtNumber" Type="String" ControlID="txtNumber" PropertyName="Text" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtHeight" Type="String" ControlID="txtHeight" PropertyName="Text" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtWeight" Type="String" ControlID="txtWeight" PropertyName="Text" /> </InsertParameters> </asp:SqlDataSource> Then the code I have behind the Register.aspx.cs page is: protected void CreateUserWizard1_CreatedUser(object sender, EventArgs e) { TextBox UserName = (TextBox)CreateUserWizard1.FindControl("UserName"); SqlDataSource DataSource = (SqlDataSource)CreateUserWizard1.FindControl("InsertExtraInfo"); MembershipUser User = Membership.GetUser(UserName.Text); //object UserGUID = User.ProviderUserKey; DataSource.InsertParameters.Add("UserId", UserGUID.ToString()); DataSource.Insert(); } I know there is a problem with the code on the aspx.cs page but I cant figure it out. I need the username / password information to relate to the personal details information. I know I have to create a foreign key in the asp_UserInformation table that will link to the username in the asp_Membership (where all the username / password info is stored) Any help will do, I'm almost in tears here!!!The Spud
This is a pretty simple query that tracks 'yesterdays' apply clicks on our website.
SELECT MIN(A.hitDate) AS minDate, D.AffiliateName, B.ProdType, COUNT(DISTINCT A.ipAddress) AS TOTAL FROM ArchiveApplyTracking A LEFT OUTER JOIN Configuration.dbo.Affiliates D ON A.affiliateID = D.AffiliateID LEFT OUTER JOIN Incoming C ON A.campaignID = C.ID LEFT OUTER JOIN Configuration.dbo.ProductType B ON A.productTypeID = B.ProdNo WHERE (A.hitDate >= DATEADD(d, DATEDIFF(d, 0, GETDATE() - 1), 0)) AND (A.hitDate < DATEADD(d, DATEDIFF(d, 0, GETDATE()), 0)) AND (A.deal = 1) AND (A.ipAddress NOT IN (SELECT ipAddress FROM [Tracking].[dbo].ipTracking)) AND (B.ProdType NOT LIKE 'refused%') AND (D.AffiliateName LIKE 'ARROW%') AND (B.ProdType NOT LIKE '%prequalify%') GROUP BY D.AffiliateName, B.ProdType ORDER BY D.AffiliateName
No problem there, that's fine.
But how can i put a simple date range interface on my published report so users can say "get me the stats from 04/09/2005 to 20/09/2005, which then runs the query?
Deleting a Login from a server instance and adding it back did not show that the login was still mapped to databases. In SQL Server 2008, adding a Windows Login did not permit access to end user databases until the Windows Login was mapped to various databases. In SQL Server 2012, once a Windows Login is added to SQL Server Security, it may access ANY end user databaseWe use the following to circumvent this problem, Windows Login by Windows Login: DENY VIEW ANY DATABASE TO [TESTTest1]
I am trying to create an ASPNET Login for a SQL Server express Database (As Installed via Visual Studio) so my ASP Web Applications can invoke the Database. But SQLServer Managemnt Tool is not recognising any ASPNET user names I try. I am trying to add via Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express, but get an error " An Object (User or Built-in Security principal) with the following name cannot be found "mycomputerASPNET". "
Any obvious reason why ASPNET is not being recognised as a Login object object
Unfortunately I am on VISTA and IIS7 ( I have enabled, and checked that ASP Applications Run.)
- The process works OK on my other XP machine, ASP.NET via IIS 5.1, which seems more straightforward to set up.
This is my first time to deploy an asp.net2 web site. Everything is working fine on my local computer but when i published the web site on a remote computer i get the error "Failed to generate a user instance of SQL Server due to failure in retrieving the user's local application data path. Please make sure the user has a local user profile on the computer. The connection will be closed" (only in pages that try to access the database) Help pleaseee
Is there any way or option to get the all columns of dataset added to table when we add a table in data region. It will take lot of time to add one by one and also there are chances to add one column ore than once.
