How To Clear Or Reset A Microsoft SQL Database?
Sep 30, 2006
I'm writing a web application that saves data to a Microsoft SQL database. As I build my application, I continually dirty my database with test data and refine my data schema. Is there a tool that can quickly remove all of the data from 4 of my 5 tables? Right now I'm using MS SQL Server Management Studio Express to open each table and manually deleting the rows of data and it's a pain in the ass. Playing around with the Management Express, I was able to generate a create SQL script (I'm afraid to test it though) that looks like it will rebuild my table. The problem is, one of my tables is a list (index?) of types...and I'd need that data saved
ebuilt each time...but I cannot figure out how to tell SQL that the rows in this table needs to be rebuilt (and is not really data per say).
How do you guys "clear" or reset your database during development?

Is there a simple method to clear all the tables in a db or to make a copy of the mdf file without the datas ?
I tried to use TRUNCATE TABLE but it doesn't work with foreign keys ?
Thanks.

We are troubleshooting a performance problem and the test result is slow the 1st time but the subsequent runs are faster.. Logging out of application and log back in ( connecting to a new database session) did not clear the buffer cache as I thought it would.. When does the database clear the buffer cache? Is it not per database session?
I can issue CHECKPOINT and then run DBCC DROPCLEANBUFFERS to clear the buffers in the disk. But since we are testing from the application,do we need to run these commands via application code to clear buffer/per database session OR can we run these commands from a management studio session?

We are about the deploy our project. We made many testing such as Random data insertion etc. Some tables have autoincrement column, and their numbers reached 3,000,000. After testing, we delete all data in database. Now question is how can we truncate all tables, and make fresh start. We may use TRUNCATE query but it is boring and giving errors some time. Is there way to reset whole database, and make a fresh start, like no data entered before.????
Thanks for help, Happy Coding

Hi,
I have red this thread while I was searching an answer to my problem. Basically when you develop an app. you do some testing to check if everything is fine. When the testing is done you have primary key seeds starting from a number x which is not 1, as it is when the db is newly created.
I read about the truncate instruction (which I knew from mysql) but I can't perform the query because of the presence of a foreign key constraint in another table.
So I thought, maybe there is a way to tell the DB engine to disable FK checks while I do the truncation, but I can't find it in the documentation.
So the question is: using SQL EXPRESS what is the quickest way to reset the db state to its initial state, where all the primary key seeds were 1?
thanks in advance and sry if this question is already answered somewhere else, I searched but I didn't find a solution.

I'm having a problem with my database, can any of you sql gurus out there help me?
after I use sp_resetstatus to unmark the database as suspect I get this:
error: 602, Severity: 21, State: 15
Could not find the row in sysindexes for dbid '6', object '9', index '2'. Run DBCC CHECKTABLE on Sysindexes
then this one:
error: 3414, Severity: 21, State: 1
Database 'maillist' (dbid 6): Recovery failed. Please contact Technical Support for further instructions.
I can't do checktable because it's suspect, and I can't reset it's suspect status, any ideas?

I designing a continuous integration process, and I need to be able to "clean" the SQL Server 2005 database. Locally, I just drop the database and re-create it. That's the simplest way.
Yet, I would like to do the same thing with an "hosted" database online. The problem being that I do not have the rights to drop/recreate the database. Thus I need to operation within the database.
Does anyone has an idea how to drop everything in a database except the database itself?
Thanks in advance,
Joannès

I have a database surrogate key that increments so rapidly (+5000 every 30 mins). I need my SSIS package to reset this database surrogate key to avoid reaching an upper limit value for that field.
How can I do that using SSIS package?

Hello! I like to reset my database (all tables in the database) to
default starting index values. I tried to use the command "TRUNCATE
TABLE" but it does't work becuase of the referenced foreign keys. I get
always the error message: Cannot truncate table 'T_MyTable' because it
is being referenced by a FOREIGN KEY constraint.
You know a solution for that problem?
Perhaps save all constraints, then delete them, truncate the tables and
then create the old constraints again.But how can I save all
constraints?
Thanks to help me in this urgent problem! FOX

In VS 2005, when we choose database connection, we can choose one of the above. My question is in what situations should we choose MS SQL Server Database File (SqlClient), and when should we choose Microsoft SQL Server?
I want to deploy a standalone desktop application with a backend database. Which backend database should I should and which of the above connection should I choose?
Thanks very much for your information.

I have MS-Access as data source for one of the reports. I can preview the report fine from BI studio however, it does not work when I deploy it on report server.
The error is :
An error has occurred during report processing.
Cannot create a connection to data source '<data source name>'.
The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file '<UNC location of the MS-Access database>'. It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its data.
MS-Access database is located on a different server.
Any help to solve this? I understand it has something to do with permission both on server where reporting service is running as well as the server where MS-access database is located. Pls help.

I have two database files, one .mdf and one .ndf. The creator of these files has marked them readonly. I want to "attach" these files to a new database, but cannot do so because they are read-only. I get this message:
Server: Msg 3415, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Database 'TestSprintLD2' is read-only or has read-only files and must be made writable before it can be upgraded.
What command(s) are needed to make these files read_write?
thanks

Hi,
I am working with "sql server enterprise manager".
How can I insert datetime(i.e. date) value in the datetime column in my database using an sql command?
Eg.
If I have a table named Table1 in my database, and this table is composed of one primary key column and one datetime column (named dateofreceipt), how should the syntax look like?
Thank you

Hi MS-Guys,
the following E-Learning course has some errors which have to be investigated otherwise the course will be very disappointing for the participants:
Kurs 2938: Datenverfügbarkeitsfeatures in Microsoft® SQL Server„¢ 2005 (this is only the german subject for the course, the link should apply in english versions as well, as the course is actually in english)
While starting the VLab to setup mirroring, the sqlinstance2 and sqlinstance3 is not started (this sure can be done very easily), another point is that you installed RTM version where database mirroring is disabled by default (sure this can be done by swithcing the trace flag, but the course is not about doing administrative tasks, right ? :-) )
HTH, Jens Suessmeyer.

I am trying to copy a database from the server on my web host(crystaltech) to my new local install of MS SQL Server 2005 Enterprise (trial version).
I go to Tasks>Copy Database which opens the wizard. When I get to the select database screen I get this error:
Server user 'username' is not a valid user in database '123foo'
(123foo is the first database of all those on the server)
I need have it look only at my database which I have permissions for to copy it. How do I do this?
I tried copying the tables the other way(import data) but it dropped all my identities and primary keys which is a pain to recreate. Is there a way to copy tables from one server to another without losing primary keys and identity fields?
Thanks for any help!

I have a query of the kind brains of this group.Is it possible to access a microsoft sqlserver database (for select, insert,update, delete, and for miscellaneous administrative actions such as tableand index creation and deletion) remotely from a compiled C program (and/or,from Perl) running on a NON microsoft platform, such as Sun's Solaris and/orLinux?What toolset(s) could be used (on the UNIX/Linux end) for such a purpose?Would it require a corresponding special toolset to be installed on theWindows server end as well? (I'd prefer not to have to do that ifpossible.)If you are not now rolling on the floor laughing at the "heresy" of such anotion, thanks in advance.DanJoin Bytes! (replace 'glowing' with 'lucent')

Hello,
I have microsoft access database. I want to use this database as source of SSIS transformation.
I have a data flow task which I want to get executed in Transaction with TransactionOption as "Required".
I tried using OLEDB datasource which uses oledb connection. I also tried using ADO.NET connection type with DataReader DataSource.
But in all cases at run time, it fires an error message as follows:
[DataReader Source [1]] Error: System.InvalidOperationException: The ITransactionLocal interface is not supported by the 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0' provider. Local transactions are unavailable with the current provider. at System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnectionInternal.EnlistTransactionInternal(Transaction transaction, Boolean forcedAutomatic) at System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnectionInternal.EnlistTransaction(Transaction transaction) at System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection.EnlistTransaction(Transaction transaction) at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.ManagedHelper.GetManagedConnection(String assemblyQualifiedName, String connStr, Object transaction) at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper.IDTSConnectionManager90.AcquireConnection(Object pTransaction) at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.DataReaderSourceAdapter.AcquireConnections(Object transaction) at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.ManagedComponentHost.HostAcquireConnections(IDTSManagedComponentWrapper90 wrapper, Object transaction)
If I remove the transaction, the data flow task works perfectly fine.
Please suggest What mistake I am doing while connecting to MS Access database in side transaction??
The same mentioned configuration WITH TRANSACTION works perfectly fine for SQL Server AS SOURCE. Am I missing some very obvious thing??
Please suggest.

Hi there guys, I am currently trying to achieve a seemingly simple task in VC++ 2005. I have made a very simple form in Microsoft Access which I wish to serve as the beginnings of something greater. I created a db in MS Access named links.mdb containing on table-> Table1. Table1 contains 1 column, "Links", and i wish to read these strings into variables in my Visual C++ Windows Forms Application.
What I have done so far...
In Visual C++, I clicked on Data->Add new data source, and followed the wizard to add the microsoft access database to my application by the name, "linksDataSet". I can see the table in my left hand "Data Sources" pane in VC++. All I need to know is how to access my database from here so that I can read these strings stored in my table. Also, would be possible to schedule my application to log on to a http server and retrieve these links every time the application is executed? How would I go about doing this?
Thank you very much for your time
Regards
Linden.
