Cannot Detach Db
Aug 21, 2002I am trying to detach an SQL7 db and reattach it to an SQL2K server. When I run sp_who I get a list of 10-15 processes that are running, most under my sa login. If I kill all the others and then try to run sp_detach_db I get the following:
Server: Msg 3702, Level 16, State 1, Line 0
Cannot drop the database 'snb01' because it is currently in use.
DBCC execution completed. If DBCC printed error messages, contact your system administrator.
I have detached and reattached before, but I don't recall what I did differently. Pls help. TIA D. Lewis

Detach Database .
Feb 12, 2002Hello Everybody ..
I am trying to detach and attach a database on SQL 7.0 Server with SP 2 through Enterprise manager . However if i right click o the Database and go to all task , i see the ' detach database' greyed out .
The same thing is seen for ' attach Database 'when i try to attach the database .
Although it can done through T-SQL commands also , does any body know the reason why this field is greyed out ?
Does it depend on the SQL 7.0 Service pack or any kind of special permissions ? The same is visible on SQL 2000 Server Enterprise Manager .
Has anybody come across this problem ?
Many thanks in advance
Yatin.

Detach Db -very Urgent !
Oct 22, 2001Hi,
We have drive running out of space where the data and log file reside for the database in question on the server. I am trying to detach the files and move the log file to the different drive.
I am getting the error message that database can not be dropped as it is in use.
sp_detach_db 'order_management'
Server: Msg 3702, Level 16, State 1, Line 0
Cannot drop the database 'order_management' because it is currently in use.
DBCC execution completed. If DBCC printed error messages, contact your system administrator.
Actually no one is using the database. Please let me know how to work around it. I put the db in single user mode also but didn't help.
Please help as the users are waiting to get back to the database.
Thanks,

Jan 4, 2002I have developed a db on a local machine (98) and would like to move it to another machine running nt 4 where it will function as a production db. I am mapped to see the other server (called "labnt"). The drive on "labnt" is partitioned, with the c drive holding programs, and the e drive designed to hold the data.
I would like to move the db (called SNB01) to the MSSQLData subdirectory on the e-drive. I have tried the following sproc to detach:
EXEC sp_detach_db 'SNB01', 'true'
And the following to reattach:
EXEC sp_attach_db @dbname = 'SNB01',
@filename1 = 'labntewmssqldataSNB01_Data.mdf',
@filename2 = 'labntewmssqldataSNB01_log.ldf'
The above path was given me by our network admin guy.
QA gives the following error:
Server: Msg 5105, Level 16, State 4, Line 1
Device activation error. The physical file name 'labntewmssqldataSNB01_Data.mdf' may be incorrect.
Please help. I am thrashing about. D. Lewis

Unable To Detach Database.
Jul 1, 2006I need some insight if possible. I installed a new server (to replace an aging machine) with SQL 2000. After installing SQL on the new server I tried to detach a database from the old server so that I can attach it to the new instance of SQL. My problem is that when I do the process I am stopped with an error message.
“Error 8146: procedure sp_detach_db has no parameters and arguments supplied.”
This is happening with all of the user databases on the old server.
I have tried to run this using both the Query Analyzer and from the right-click menu option and both return the same error message. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Database Detach/attach
Jan 2, 2004An original database (eg A.mdf) is imported/exported to a different server as named B.mdf. The detach of A.mdf was unitentionally not done. It seems that both the database were updated.
A.mdf - 123000KB 25/12/2003
A_log.ldf - 14000KB 25/12/2003
B.mdf - 67000KB 25/12/2003
B_log.ldf - 1024KB 25/12/2003
In this case, which mdf & ldf should be the correct database?
If I I remove A.mdf database by "detach", will B.mdf database work?
SQL server 2000 and SP3 installed.
Assistance is appreciated

Mar 11, 2008My purpose is to detach a user instance. This code reaches timeout quite often and doesn't work reliably on Vista. It times out both on the alter database and the detach.

Detach, Move, Attach Again
Mar 23, 2006I created a db in ssms; I detached it and moved it into a subdirectory of a vb app. Now sql server says the database does not exist. If I recreate the database in smss, I can run an INSERT INTO using that db as the destination. However, this only works if I keep it in the mssql data directory. How can I move it to the apps subdirectory so that it can be deployed with the app and still work? BTW, I also tried creating the databases in VS2005 with same results.
This is the connection string (tried this and non-express version with same results):
strDbConn = "Provider=SQLNCLI;Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS; AttachDbFilename=" & DbPath & ";User Instance=True;Trusted_Connection=Yes"
This is the sql statement:
sqlCopyTable = "SELECT * INTO "
sqlCopyTable = sqlCopyTable & CleanDbName & ".dbo." & CleanTableName
sqlCopyTable = sqlCopyTable & " FROM " & RawTableName & ";"
ConnectSQLExpress RawDbPath, "Source"
ConnectSQLExpress CleanDbPath, "Destination"
SourceDbConn.Execute sqlCopyTable
Detach Dbase On SAN With SQL2005
Apr 16, 2007I'm not sure if this is the right place for this but I have an issue.
I have a SQL2005 server with SAN drives for the MDF/LDF files. I have updated recently to SP2.
When I detach a Dbase using the appropriate command it strips the Security on the file level (which SP2 is supposed to fix) and I am unable to attach the database.
I am using a domain account to do this with from the query analyser window.
Anyone have any thoughts on this?
Detach Database From Code
Mar 6, 2008
I have the need to detach a database from code, at the moment I am using 'SSEUTIL -d' for this in my code and it works OK but now I want to change to using an SQLCommand. Here is my code so far:
Code Snippet
Dim conDatabase As SqlConnection("Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=MyMDFPath"; Integrated Security=True;Connect Timeout=60;User Instance=True")
Dim comDetach As New SqlCommand("EXEC master.dbo.sp_detach_db '" + MyMDFPath + "'", conDatabase)
conDatabase.Open()
comDetach.ExecuteNonQuery()
conDatabase.Close()
However, when I execute this I always get the following exception:
Code Snippet
Cannot detach the database 'MyMDFPath' because it is currently in use.
It seems obvious to me that the problem is that to do the detach I create a connection - how do i get around this?
Thanks!
How To Detach Deleted Databases?

When I ran sseutil -l, I discovered several databases that were still attached. However, they were old test projects that had previously been deleted. How do I detach them if they no longer exist? Using the detach command will not work because it just gives me a message: No valid database name matches the value specified.

Nov 3, 2006Hi all,
I'm trying to detach a database and after archive it for deliver to other server.
The detach wents fine and the database is removed from the database tree list in Management Studio. The problem is that the mdf file is being locked by some process (maybe SQL) and I can't imagine why. Here is the code for this operation:
USE master;
GO
ALTER DATABASE IMS_MCK_MIS SET AUTO_UPDATE_STATISTICS ON
GO
ALTER DATABASE IMS_MCK_MIS SET EMERGENCY
GO
DECLARE @strDate NVARCHAR(8)
DECLARE @strCmd NVARCHAR(255)
SELECT @strDate = CONVERT(nvarchar(8), GETDATE(),112)
EXEC sp_detach_db 'IMS_MCK_MIS'
SELECT @strCmd = 'wzzip -ex -m C:Deliveryarchive_' + @strDate + '.zip E:DBSQLIMS_MCK_MIS.mdf'
exec master..xp_cmdshell @strCmd
Anyone have any idea how to quickly free the mdf file?
Thanks and regards
