I would like to restore database using RESTORE DATABASE ... REPLACE command.

I can do closing from Management Studio using checkbox "Close Existing Connection" when deleting database. Actually I need to do the same but from script.
Please advice me how to do it.

SQL Server 2014 :: Restoring Database Programmatically But Not Over Existing Live Database
Aug 6, 2015I want to restore a database (from an encrypted .bak file) - but *not* over the live original if you take my meaning. Encryption is the standard AES-256 that comes with Sql Server 2014 btw. I don't want the original touched/altered in any way. I would like to capture a success message if possible.I can extract the physical device name of the database in question using the following code:
SELECT physical_device_name, *
FROM msdb.dbo.backupmediafamily
WHERE media_set_id =(SELECT TOP 1 media_set_id
FROM msdb.dbo.backupset
WHERE database_name='MyDatabase'
AND type='D'
ORDER BY backup_start_date DESC)
I would like if the newly restored database was rename to something different than 'MyDatabase' (as shown above) and has different logs than the original. If possible, and capture a success message when restored.

How To Add Reporting Service On An Existing SQL Server 2005 SP2
Dec 13, 2007I am being asked to install Reporting Services on an existing SQL Server 2005 SP2 as well. My question is with regard to the setup. When I go through the setup I choose nothing but Reporting Services, which means everything else has a red X on it. Will setup un-install my existing SQL Server 2005 environment? I need Reporting Services, but I do not want to remove my existing environment. Will this happen?

Dec 4, 2007
Hi,
I have a windows 2003R2 SP2 server with SQL Server 2005 std SP2.
I need to add Reporting services & Analysis Services, but i'm not sure of how to proceed.
I was thinking about this :
"Add or remove programs", select "Change", select "To install a new component, click here", inserting my CD, and select in the setup Reporting Services & Analysis Services.
After the install, I think I also need to run again SP2 setup, right ?
Thanks for your advices

View 1 Replies View RelatedSQL Server 2000 To SQL Server 2005 - Any Changes Required To Existing Code, System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection?
Dec 13, 2007My web project (ASP.NET 2.0 / C#) runs against sql server 2000 and uses the System.Data.SqlClient.using System.Data.SqlClient;
I use System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection and System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand to make the connections to the database and do selects and updates. Is it correct to continue to use these against SQL Server 2005? I ask because I made a connection string (outside of .Net) for SqlServer 2005 using the SQL native provider and it had the following - Provider=SQLNCLI.1 and any connection strings I had made (also outside of ASP.NET) fro SQL Server all used Provider=SQLOLEDB.1. This is why I wondered if there is a different SqlClient in .Net 2.0 for SQL Server 2005?

Hello
I was using SQL SERVER 2000 ... In one table I've created FULL TEXT SEARCHING ( Full text catalog along with full text indexing)

GO
if not exists (select * from dbo.sysfulltextcatalogs where name = N'DEV_CAS_DiagnosisCatalog')
exec sp_fulltext_catalog N'DEV_CAS_DiagnosisCatalog', N'create'
GO

But I couldn't get where it actually is in SQL SERVER 2005 standard edition.

Possible To Encrypt Database Assembly?
Oct 11, 2006Hello.
I've built a simple Visual Basic .NET project containing the following code...
Imports System
Imports System.Data
Imports System.Data.SqlClient
Imports System.Data.SqlTypes
Imports Microsoft.SqlServer.Server
Partial Public Class StoredProcedures
<Microsoft.SqlServer.Server.SqlProcedure()> _
Public Shared Sub WhoAmI()
Using connection As New SqlConnection("context connection=true")
connection.Open()
Dim command As New SqlCommand("SELECT SUSER_SNAME()", connection)
SqlContext.Pipe.ExecuteAndSend(command)
End Using
End Sub
End Class
From Visual Studio, I want to encrypt the contents of this assembly, as a proof-of-concept.
Even though assembly contents are stored as varbinary(MAX) in the database, converting to varchar(MAX) will expose the code.
However, the Dotfuscator Community Edition reports the following error: "Dotfuscator Community Edition cannot operate on SQL Server applications.... please try Standard or Professional Edition."
Has anyone tried encrypting a database assembly and deploying to the database?
A good test would be to issue the following TSQL script against the database holding the assembly...
-- Does the sample code above run?
EXEC dbo.WhoAmI
GO
-- Is the code readable?
SELECT * , Convert(varchar(MAX), content) FROM sys.assembly_files

Recovery :: How To Restore Database To Existing Development Server
Aug 19, 2015We are using SQL Server 2012 for both production and development server. Currently, i have plan to transfer the full backup of SQL server database to the development server and then restore it on the development server for testing purpose, so we don't want to disturb on the production.
I have successfully backup the database from the production server and transfer to the development server. however, i encounter some difficulties when trying to do restore. my question is:
1. do i need to firstly create an empty database on the development server and then restore it into this empty database? say i create database call "Test2", then i perform a restore into this database.
2. currently, there is already an existing database being restored previously in the development server and this database is actually the older version of the backup that being restored by the previous engineer. should i remove this database first and restore a new one or both of the database can coexist as long as we put different name for the database?
Installing SQL Server 2005 On Same Machine As An Existing SQL Sever 2000 Instance
Sep 8, 2005Given than once SQL Server 2005 is installed, SQL Server Studio has to
be used instead of Enterprise manager, can both SQL 2000 and 2005 be
used on the same machine, be it development or production? (The second
one to be installed probably would be a named instance.)
Any experiance of doing this or a pointer to a Microsoft recommendation would be appreciated.
Adding 'unaware' SQL Server 2005 Components To Existing Windows 2003 Cluster
Feb 11, 2008
This is a fresh install of SQL Server 2005 (64bit) on a Windows 2003 R2 SP2 64bit OS. The Cluster has been built and SQL 2005 has been installed (Database Engine(clustered), Analysis Server(clustered), Notification Server, Integration Server, Reporting Services). SQL 2005 SP2 has been installed.
Now, I want to install Notification Server, Integration Server and Reporting Services on the second node for high availability.
When I select 'Install New Components' from Add/Remove Programs, the System Configuation Checker tells me theres a version difference and to:
To change an existing instance of Microsoft SQL Server 2005 to a different edition of SQL Server 2005, you must run SQL Server 2005 Setup from the command prompt and include the SKUUPGRADE=1 parameter.
I'm using the same binaries as the original install. Could this be a result of installing SQL 2005 SP2?
Can someone help me out with this. I'd prefer using the setup interface instead of a command line script.

SQL Server 2008 :: Recover Data In A Table - Restoring A Database Alongside Existing DB
Apr 17, 2015I need to recover some data in a table but i'm not 100% sure the right way to do this safely.
I'll need to query the two tables to compare the before and after but how do i go about restoring/attaching the backup database to SQL without causing conflicts?
If I restore, I assume this would just overwrite which is obviously the worst thing that can happen. if i attach the backup, how does this affect the current live DB? how do i make sure that it's not getting accessed and mistaken for the live DB?
The SQL server is 2008 R2 running as a VM.

Does SSIS Database Copy Overwrite Existing User Permission To That Database?
Sep 24, 2007Hi guys,
I've been assigned the task of setting up access to our SQL Server 2005 box. A consultant developing for us has accessing to 2 databases and I've set this up fine. It appears however that one of these databases is re-copied over to the server every night to keep data reasonably current.
I'm not interesting in changing this method as I'm not the maintainer (as yet).
Basically I would like to know if I've setup access to this database (it works fine), when the database is updated (with an SSIS package) the account seems to get deleted. Do the original permissions from the source database overwrite those of its destination?
Cheers
SQL Server 2014 :: Add A Step To Add To Encrypt Backup
Jul 7, 2015I have inherited a job that is calling a maintenance plan. The maintenace plan makes a back-up of various databases.I have to add a step to add to encrypt the backup. I have the exe already. Its called "EncryptBackup.exe".My difficulty is I do not know how to add the step to the job exactly. The command syntax eludes me a bit. The syntax for the encrypter exe is:
C:exesEncryptBackup.exe C:DBBackupFolderA Encypt filename.bak
The output is "filename_encrypt.bak". It should be noted that there exists several sub-folder off: C:DBBackup like FolderA, FolderB, etc...each one holds a database.
