I was doing a DTS import and accidently imported into the wrong database, dropping very critical tables. Please let me know how I can restore these transaction back. My last backup was 24 hours ago, and I just need to restore a few hours back.
Thanks,

If a stored procedure creates a temporary table and then has a batch-terminating error -- either a fatal error or a non-fatal error in "xact_abort on" mode -- the temp table does not get dropped even though it goes out of scope:
create proc px as
create table #z(z1 int primary key)
insert #z values ('x')
go
exec px
go
select * from tempdb.sys.tables where name like '#z%' --returns row for #z
drop table #z --fails because #z out of scope
or:
create proc px as
set xact_abort on
create table #z(z1 int primary key)
insert #z values (0)
insert #z values (0)
go
exec px
go
select * from tempdb.sys.tables where name like '#z%' --returns row for #z
drop table #z --fails because #z out of scope
Is this behavior by design? It does not appear to be documented properly if so, since BOL states that "Temporary tables are automatically dropped when they go out of scope".
In any case, is there a way to delete leftover temp tables from tempdb without restarting SQL Server?
Thanks,
Ron
Hey guys, has anyone ever seen this happen:
Try to move stored proc from one DB to another using DTS, errors on create proc. Create proc manually.
Three tables referenced by that stored proc have been dropped and re-created with the same table structure.
I'm not 100% certain that it happened at exactly the same time, but it seems to be around the same time. Any ideas? Anyone seen this happen before?

Hi all,
I have created several global temp tables to cache some intermediate results ...
However, it seems that after a while those tables will be dropped by SQL Server 2005 automatically (I have not restarted the server and no drop table statement ever executed against those tables). Is this a feature by design? How to make those global temp tables persistence to next service restart?
Thanks,

I am helping another division with a problem of a dropped table. They have no backup and after dropping the table, the server has been re-booted 3 times. Is there a way to recover the table with no backup?
Help anyone,
Thank you.
Here's a poser.
I run a VB application to import data from a text file into a SQL 6.5 database. Typically, there'll be 300,000 records, all of which have to be processed. Time taken will be in excess of 2 hours.
When the application finishes, I try to go into Enterprise Manager and run a Select Count(*) to verify that the data's been imported. Invariably, I get an error reading:
"A connection could not be established to <server> - [SQL Server] Could not allocate a new object descriptor for required system catalog in database '1'. Another database must be closed or objects in another database dropped in order to open this database."
I get the same error whether I try to view Current Activity, open the Query Tool or simply expand the server in the Server Manager area.
Usually, it means I have to re-boot the server, which is not popular with other users. Does anybody know what's causing this and what might be the solution?
Thanks.
I believe I deleted a maintenance plan that was attached to a job and therefore have received the following message:
Drop failed for Job 'Shrink DSS Database.Subplan_1'. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
An execption occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch. (Microsoft.SqlSserver.connectionInfo)
The DELETE statement conflicted with the REFERENCE constraint "FK_subplan_job_id". The conflict occurred in database "msdb", table "dbo.sysmaintplan_subplans", column 'job_id'.
The statement has been terminated. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 547)
Is there a T-SQL or other means I can use to remove this constraint and delete the job show it does not show up in SQL Server Management Studio any longer?
Somebody has dropped my SQL table in (multiuser environment),now I want

I am using SQL 2005.
I'm trying to drop a table onto the design view in Web Matrix and the following message appears: "dropped table does not have a primary key and cannot be used".
I'm using a SQL 2000 database that was previously an MSDE 2000 database. Is there anyway that I can define a column as a primary key?
Thanks.

ONLY ONE of our many stored procedure is getting dropped in SQL 7.0. We were not able to find thru SQL Profiler. Let me know any alternate methods to find it or the possible reasons why/how the sp is getting dropped.

Hello,
I have the following problem that I need to find a solution. I have created a generic user id and login in the model datbase on SQL 7. However the genericuser does not show in the explorer window for some databases, does not work on some databases. I have to go into TSQL and use dropuser to get rid off them and re-link them again.
Does any1 have a clue about why this happening? How it can be solved?
TIA Gurmi
Hi..I just restored a databae from backup. After restoring, as usual, from the Enterprises manager, I want to delete the database user and readd again from the DB login name. But when I tried to delete the DB user, it prompts me the following.
"the selected user cannot be dropped because the user owns objects"
why? I never encountered this b4 ? I restored DB again but problem still the same. Any ideas?
Unfortunately I dropped my table in sqlserver. How to I recover that table?
View 3 Replies View RelatedAfter installing a Zen Cart plugin I was getting errors that there was a duplicate entry for the mysql table so I went in and dropped the table assuming that it would come back when I re - installed everything, anyways I have the PHP code that created the table but not sure how to recreate it or if that's even possible. Also my main way to get to change anything is phpMyAdmin, I tried importing the code there but that didn't work.

Hi,
In my local instance of SQL Server at work (which I use for testing), somehow all of the logins except 2 were dropped. The administrators group no longer exists as a login (nor do any other windows users or groups)-the only 2 remaining are sa (which is disabled) and a SQL login I had created earlier which has no permissions except read permission on master. I can login as this SQL user, but I do not have permissions to create logins or enable the sa account. Do I have any options other than uninstalling and reinstalling my local instance?
Thanks,

I am testing sql server 2005 in different disaster situations happened under 2000. I was reading a lot about no update on system tables, so:
sp_detach_db 'tempdb'
In sql 2000 i could issue something like the following command to recover:
use master
sp_configure 'allow updates', 1
reconfigure with override
go
insert sys.sysdatabases (name, dbid, sid, mode, status, status2, crdate, reserved, category, cmptlevel, filename, version)
values ('tempdb', 2, 0x01, 0, 8, 1090520064, '2007-01-27 13:03:10.873', '1900-01-01 00:00:00.000', 0, '90', 'D:eepmssql emp empdb.mdf', 611)
go
sp_configure 'allow updates', 0
reconfigure with override
go
As tempdb is hardcoded db id 2, I do not have a chance to recover without a master backup.
Of course, this situation can be recovered using a master backup, but it is not always available.
Thank you for your comments.

Hi there,
I installed 2 SQL2000 servers at a client site, the first acting as a publisher and distributor for transactional replication. The second is a push subscription to the first. The client wanted to change the database name, and some other stuff, so I removed the replication and set it up again for the new database name.
All's fine at the publisher / distributor but the subscriber is showing as still having active push subscription to the old (and new) databases
Any idea how to fix this
My sql server is setup to use windows authentication. From time to time one of the applications on that server would have issues connecting to that server. I changed it to use sql authentication and all of a sudden all the problems went away.

Hello,
I am attempting to import a fixed width flat file into a SQL Server table. When I import the file, 704 records don't make it into the table. I know this because if I do the import with MS Access 2003 into an Access table, all of the records from the flat file make it into the table. The flat files have a .txt extension.
The only possible problem that I can see is that some of the rows in the flat file do not contain the full set of characters. When I do the import into SQL Server and create a table on the fly, I still end up 704 records short. There are no error messages during or after the import.
I suppose I could isolate some of the missing records, put them into a different file and try to import them to see what would happen. Other than that, how do I begin to troubleshoot this problem? Are there known issues where records can be dropped from a fixed width file?
Thank you for your help!

The small company I work for has a development SQL Server where we do testing and development for web based applications. While using SQL Server Enteprise Manager I accidentally dropped the user's default default database.
I have always been able to access the enteprise manager via windows authentication, but now I am unable to. Is there any way to set the default database back to 'master'? Currently I cannot connect with SQL Query Analyzer for the same reasons, and do not have any other access except via windows authentication. Is there any hope? Any help is much appreciated.
Hello all :)
First, sorry for my english but I don't practice everday
So,
I'm a new user of Microsoft SQL 2005 and I'm testing some functionalities in SSIS.
I used the Transfer Objects Task to copy one database to another.
The both db's are on the same instance.
I chose these options for the transfer
-SourceConnection : My_Instance
-SourceDatabase : My_DB
-DestinationConnection : My_Instance
-DestinationDatabase : CopyOfMy_DB
-DropObjectsFirst = True
-IncludeExtendedProperties = Fasle
-CopyData = True
-ExistingData = Replace
-CopySchema = True
-UseCollation = True
IncludeDependentObjects =False
CopyAllObjects = True
The others options are set on FASLE
When I execute the package, I got an error message, the logins are dropped. I cannot connect to the database engine, even with my admin account.
I have to restore the master database !
So my question is : why this SSIS task drop all the logins in sql server in place of just copy one database??????
What's the solution for this problem?
Thanks for your comments !

Hello,
SQL SERVER 2000:
My problem is that I have to process a special text file every day which contains 0 ASCII values to separate fields. The DTS import program drops everything after the ascii 0 value in the row, but of course I need the entire row with all fields.
So how can I prevent the text file import task from dropping everything after the 0 ascii value?
Could you help me in this?
thank you
