I have some C# code written a little while that imports data nightly
into a database. Most of the data is typically deleted from the tables
and imported again. There are some tables where data is never deleted
and references other tables. Because there are constraints between
these tables, the code processes the import in the following sequence.
get constraints from database->drop constraints->delete data->apply
constaints->import data
I was curious how I can accomplish similiar results in SSIS. I know I
can execute a process task to manage the constraints, but I was
wondering if there is any other way.
How to remove the constraints on a table in sql server 2000? I need to drop the column, so i need to drop the constraint before that.
Alter Table Table_Name NO CHECK constraints ALL.
Once I execute the above one, it says, "Successfully Executed" but when I try to drop it doesnt allow me and gives me the following error:
Server: Msg 5074, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 The object 'DF_Users_Created_by' is dependent on column 'CREATED_BY'. Server: Msg 4922, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 ALTER TABLE DROP COLUMN CREATED_BY failed because one or more objects access this column.
Assuming that I have created relationships (PKs and FKs) on my tables already, does the following statement permanently remove a Foreign Key constraint, or does it mearly disable it?ALTER TABLE myTable NOCHECK CONSTRAINT FK_myForeignKeyGO Also, I can't seem to find out how to temporarily remove the Identity qualifier of a field, and then reset it back as Identity later. Any help?Finally, will a failure of ALTER TABLE affect the @@ERROR variable? Can I check @@ERROR after each ALTER TABLE table statement to see if @@ERROR <> 0?The reason for both of these issues is that I am redesigning an unnormalized database, and I need to write a large script to drop all constraints on all tables, transform the data as normalized into the new table structure, and then re-enable constraints, Identity fields, etc. Thanks.
We've got a product which uses merge replication with anonymous pullsubscriptions. At most custome sites it's running on SQL Server 2000, a few with SQL 2005, which is running wich replication compatibility level 80 due to . As it happens, db schema changes. So I have to drop a column with a default constraint. First the constraint, then the column. This works excellently on the publisher - but not on the subscriber

I just looked at a coworker's stored procedure and this person isdropping 4 Foreign key constraints and then re-adding them afterprocessing the required logic (updating rows in the 4 tables inquestion).Is there *ANY* good reason to do this? What are the performanceimplications of doing this - negative or otherwise?I was furious when I found this because every once in a while I wouldnotice that the constraints would be in flux....some days they werethere, othere days there were not. I mean, this is a good enough reasonto NOT do this, but I need some additional feedback. Maybe there *is* agood reason, and that the logic just needs tweaking.Thanks.
I know this is probably a flick of a switch but I cannot figure out which switch. Setup is SQL Server / Stored Procedures / DAL / BLL(skipped for testing) / PL. The stored procedure queries from only one table and two columns are ignored because they are being phased out. I can run the stored procedure and preview the data in the DAL but when I create a page with an ODS linked to the DAL and a GridView I get this error. I checked every column that does not allow nulls and they all have values. I checked unique columns (ID is the only unique and is Identity=Yes in the table definition). I checked foreign-key columns for values that are not in the foreign table and there are none. Any ideas why do I get this? Failed to enable constraints. One or more rows contain values violating non-null, unique, or foreign-key constraints.
Hi, I am getting the above error when trying to load a report into my Web Application, I have tracked the error down to one specific field in my database. Even though this field is a NVarChar field and is of size 30 it would seem that there is an issue returning the value from the field. I can write it into the database no problems but when I try to get it out of the database it returns the above error. e.g MOB 401.908.804 - Fails 0401.907.324 - okay 8239 9082 (pager) - fails Anyone got an idea on how to fix this???? Regards.. Peter.
I am basically a sybase guy but unfortunately I need to patch a SQL server with SP3. This is the first time I will be doing that. So I am not sure that after applying SP3, if I would need to rebuild all databases again.
Could anybody tell me what and where is the impact when we install SP3..??
In my package i have column called "optinout" coming from source file which has the value "start" and "stop", now in my destination table i have a column called "contact permission code" to which i need to apply a business rule based on the value in column "optinout" the rule is as stated "Contact Permission Code" is OptOut if "OptInOut" value is "STOP" else OptIn.
Hi guys, ive search high and low for info regarding the "-UseInprocLoader" (in-process BULK INSERT command ) though to no avail. Their are only brief overviews on this property.
does anyone know or have detailed info on the "-UseInprocLoader" Property
I am trying to install the eval version of Reporting Services. One of the requirements for installing this is to have SQL Server 2000 with service pack 3a. I've downloaded the service pack and followed the instructions documented by Microsoft (applying SQL2KSP3.exe, then SQL2KASP3.exe).
It appears that the application of the service packs did nothing. No errors where returned after the executable was run. But, after having applied these service packs, the version has not changed. I have restarted the service, and the server with no success. The version that is returned is 'Microsoft SQL Server 2000 - 8.00.194'.
I am running MSSQL server Developer Edition, running on Windows 2000 Professional (service pack 4).
Any suggestions. I have even uninstalled the SQL server and re-applied the service packs, so I really am having trouble trying to figure out what to do next.
When I try to run SQL Server 6.5 Service Pack 5a, I consistently receive the error message
"Setup initialization could not be successfully completed. cfgchar.exe could not be executed. Please check the relevant out file."
I am currently at Service Pack 3.
1) I have insured that the PATH environment variable does not contain quotes. 2) I have no other applications running at the same time as the service pack is running.
The contents of the cfgchar.out file appear as follows:
Are there any guidelines or best practices for deploying or testing Service Packs? What types of tests should be performed prior to upgrading or do I just trust Microsoft?
I need to modify an already existing stored procedure, which takes three parameters. Currently it uses exclusively "or" logic to apply the parameters to a select statement. e.g.
and (adid = @adID or (editorID = @editorID and aa.editorTypeID = 1))
What I need it to do is to apply a different "and/or" logic depending on what is supplied. If two or three parameters are supplied then it needs to use "and" logic to join them. Howver, if just one parameter is supplied then it should search on that parameter alone - which it won't do if I just join them all together using "and" by default.
The work has to be done inside the T-SQL, not in the calling code. I only know two ways of doing this. Firstly to create different stored procedures and use the calling code to pick one or the other depending on supplied parameters. The other is to do if/or login inside the SP itself on the values of the parameters. Either way presents something of a maintenance nightmare. Is there any other way to do this?
Hello, I have setup web sync from wm 5.0 and it seems to crash when applying the snapshot. Looking at the column definitions it seems fine. Am I missing something? Thanks in advance.

The identity column must be either an integer or big integer data type and cannot be NULL. HRESULT 0x80004005 (25551)
I have never applied a service pack to sql server 2000. Someone tells me that you have an option of supplying the SA password but do not have to and the service pack is applied just as if you did supply the SA password. This sounds odd to me. So, is it true? I am asking because our server instance shows "SP4" but a fix that was supposed to be included in SP4 was apparently not as the problem persists (link from sql server 2005 to 2000 fails when referenced in sql2005). I was thinking that whoever ran the service pack may not have provided the SA password so some of the SP4 was not applied???
Cannot obtain the schema rowset "DBSCHEMA_TABLES_INFO" for OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "s-1". The provider supports the interface, but returns a failure code when it is used.
Ok I already have a database layed out with several tables and relationships set up, and i went ahead and built a bunch of pages that I was planning on using. While i was doing this I ran into 2 problems, the first was i wrote some SQL statements to insert data from input boxes into some tables i have in my database, i used a catch exception statement as well as a if/else statement to handle the transfer to diffirent pages like a signup succeded or failed, the problem im having is that the data isnt saving into the database. (I was modeling my code after the Video 8 in the Learning SQL server 2005 Express Edition for Beginners Video Series.... I actually got them to work......sorta....) When i test it no exceptions are thrown and it continues on like nothing went wrong. The other Problem i ran into was i realized i wanted to use the memberships and roles provided by ASP.NET 2.0, and since i already created the pages for the site, i was wondering if there was a way to add them in. This site isnt anything fancy at all, i wanted to try and create a app where users sign up and create an account on the site, but i also wanted to have the flexability to insert and retrieve data from the database with out having to be stuck in the templates. Sorry for the long story im trying to give all the info possible. Any help on this would be great! Thanks!
Our update of KB 934458 to SQL Server 2005 SP2 has failed on a Windows 2003 SP2 server. This is a standard version of SQL Server.
The error reported is:
Error Number : 29506 Error Description : MSP Error: 29506 SQL Server Setup failed to modify security permissions on file e:MSQLMSSQLData for user Administrator. To proceed, verify that the account and domain running SQL Server Setup exist, that the account running SQL Server Setup has administrator privileges, and that exists on the destination drive.
I have verified that Administrator has full control permissions for the folder indicated in the error message. The SQL Server Service account also has full control permissions on the folder.
I have run the update as administrator without any access restriction.
I'm retrieving data from a cube using a datareader, all the measures have format string, but when retrieve from Integration services it's lost.
I know there is a way to get the format string as columns using extended properties of the conection. I haven't tried this yet, but is there any way of reapplying this format to the columns using this format strings??
I am DBA and have worked for 3 years on sql Server 7 production servers. I briefly looked at SQL 2000 on desktop edition.
Should I be worried about applying for dba positions which have SQL 2000 production server environment. Companies will ask how much SQL 2000 experiance I have. I feel a little nervous as I have not the exposure to a live SQL 2000 production server environment. From what I have seen the bread and butter DBA tasks have not changed between sql 7 and sql 2000. I am hoping to get the opinion of fellow DBA's on this subject. Thanks Pargat
We need to apply the transactional log for business hours (9-5) everyday to a oracle instance which will be seeded with SQL Data for once. And then every day the transactional log would be applied.
We need to do this as eventually this server is moving to oracle.
At this point if somebody could help me to read the transactional log that would be great.

Hi. Was hoping to get some advice on applying a hotfix to a SQL Server 2005 failover Cluster.
The hotfix I am applying (KB933508) relates to a Maintenance Plans issue with Server 2005 Service Pack 2. During installation I'm advised that unless the SQL Server and other services are stopped a reboot will be required, although I can still install the hotfix. However the installation is failing. There are error details in the relevant logs created in C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90Setup BootstrapLOGHotfix to the effect that the 'Debug' value in registry key 'SoftwarePoliciesMicrosoftWindowsInstaller' can't be read and that SQL Server was unable to add a user (the account under which SQL Server Agent and Analysis Services run) to a local group (the domain group in which SQL Server logins are contained).
Is this something simple like explicitly shutting down the services first before applying the hotfix or is there something else going on?
I've got a 4 node SQL 2008R2 cluster (configured 2 active - 2 passive), and 9 instances, of which all but one are on SP1 (the most recent addition is on SP2).
I need to apply a hotfix (Cumulative Update 6 for SP1) to just one instance. Can I do this by failing over the affected instance to one of the passive nodes, applying the hotfix, and failing it back again or do I need to apply the hotfix to all nodes as detailed in:
SQL Server failover cluster rolling patch and service pack process
i.e. will it involve a little downtime for all instances on the cluster?
I have a 2 way cluster and I want to apply SP4 on it.
Basically, I have 2 servers. Server A runs a default instance and another instance. While the default services is disabled and the other instance is running, Server B runs the default instance and has the other instance disabled. This basically acts like a 2 way cluster (active/passive).
How can I apply SQL Server 2000 SP4 on the 2 servers and have all the nodes come up the correct way? What are the steps to achieve this?
