I have got a Sql Job which takes quite a while to finish and use sql tables quite extensively.
I want to prevent all other users to access the tables used by Job while job is runing. But they will be able to use table as normal after job finishes.
any ideas ?? I guess I might need to play around Roles and permission but not sure.
I need to search for such SPs in my database in which the queries for update a table contains where clause which uses non primary key while updating rows in table.
If employee table have empId as primary key and an Update query is using empName in where clause to update employee record then such SP should be listed. so there would be hundreds of tables with their primary key and thousands of SPs in a database. How can I find them where the "where" clause is using some other column than its primary key.
If there is any other hint or query to identify such queries that lock tables, I only found the above few queries that are not using primary key in where clause.
ALTER TABLE [dbo].[TableNameExample] REBUILD PARTITION = ALL WITH (DATA_COMPRESSION = PAGE)
The table is 110 GB, so will take time to compress. But it is one table in a database with 60 tables. Why would executing this statement, cause lock timeout on Object Explorer in SQL Server Management Studio? Users cannot drill down objects in this database without getting lock timeout.
When I cancel the compression script, users of SSMS can access objects in this database again from the GUI. Why does compressing a specific table affect access to all tables metadata? I cannot find anything on the internet but I am sure this has happened to other people.
Would table1, table2 and table3 in code below, be locked with a shared lock from start of transaction to the end of transaction Or they would only be locked for the duration of their update, or insert statements and not for the entire transaction? Default isolation level is in effect in SQL Server. begin tran update table1 set column1 = 100 if @ERROR = 0 begin declare @stat int set @stat = (select stat from table2 where employeeid = 10) insert into table3 (col1, col2) values (@stat , 325) if @@ERROR = 0 commit tran else rollback tran end else roll back tran

Hi We are facing an acute situation in our web-application. Technology is ASP.NEt/VB.NET, SQL Server 2000.
Consider a scenario in which User 1 is clicking on a button which calls a SQL stored procedure. This procedure selects Group A of records of Database Page1.
At the same time if User 2 also clicks the same button which calls same SQL stored procedure. This procedure selects Group B of records of Database Page1.
So, its the same Page1 but different sets of records. At this moment, both the calls have shared locked on the Page1 inside the procedure.
Now, in call 1, inside the procedure after selecting Group A of records, the next statement is and update to those records. As soon as update statement executes, SQL Server throws a deadlock exception as follows :
Transaction (Process ID 78) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Rerun the transaction
We are able to understand why its happening. Its because, Group A and Group B of records are on the same Page1. But both the users have shared lock on the Page1. So, no one gets the exclusive lock in records for update, even though, the records are different.
How can I resolve this issue? How can I get lock on wanted rows instead of entire page?
Hi, I have set of 2 DTS packages, one of which calls the other by forming a command-line (dtexec) using a Execute Process task.
From the parent package-> Execute Process Task-> dtsexec /F etc... /<pkg variable> = "servername"
Each of the parent and the called package have a variable: "User::DWServerSQLInstance" which is mapped to the SQL server connection manager server name property using an expression. The outer package has the above variable and so does the inner called package (which gets assigned through the command line from the outerpackage call to inner)
I "sometimes" get the following error:
OnError,I4,TESTDOMAdministrator,ACDWAggregation,{A1F8E43F-15F1-4685-8C18-6866AB31E62B},{77B2F3C7-6756-46EB-8C01-D880598FB4B3},5/22/2006 5:10:28 PM,5/22/2006 5:10:28 PM,-1073659822,0x,The variable "User::DWServerSQLInstance" is already on the read list. A variable may only be added once to either the read lock list or the write lock list.
Help would be appreciated!
I have seen other posts on this but, not able to relate the solution to my scenario.
Package works fine when run from BIDS, DTExec, dtexecui. When I schedule it, It get these random errors. (See below)
The main culprit is a variable called "RecordsetFileDIR" which is set using an expression. (@[User::_ROOT] + "RecordSets\")
A number of other variables use this as part of their expression and as they all fail, pretty much everything dies.
I have installed SP1 (Not Beta) on server. Package uses config files to set the value of _ROOT.
The error does not always seem to be with this particular variable though. Always a variable that uses an expression but errors are random. Also, It will run 3 out of 10 times without a problem. I am the only person on the server at the time.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Crispin

I have the following SQL script that works fine, but I like to view all the fields for the records that are not exists in “capdb.dbo.abc “ for “capdb2.dbo.abc� table instead of some fields :
When i Run the report in reporting services, it locks the tables. so is there any option to Unlock the tables. I m using just select query to run the report but when i run the report it locks the tables.
I used with(nolock) option in select query but it didnt work...still showing me lock on the tables.
Hi there,I am trying to create a Sql Server 2005 Express database by running Sql Scripts. I have a script that has CREATE statements for tables and procedures. What I'd like it to do is create a new database with a name and a file location I specify.I searched high and low, tried lots of options with the SqlCmd tool but I keep getting authentication or other errors.Is this even possible? If so, does someone know of a good reference? I know I can create a new database and tables from within VWD but I need to create this database based on a .sql file....Thanks in advance....Imar
I try to convert a Procedure that join 8 tables with INNER AND OUTER JOIN, my understanding is that the Lookup task is the one to use and I should break these joins into smaller block, it takes a long time to load when I do this, since each of these tables had 10-40mill. rows and I have 8 tables to go thru, currently this Stored Procedure took 3-4min to run, by converting this to 8 Lookup tasks, it ran for 20min. has anyone run into this issue before and know a work around for this.
I want to lock a table so others cannot lock it but able to read it inside transactions.
The coding I need is something like this: set implicit_transactions on begin transaction select * from table1 with (tablock, holdlock) update table2 set field1 = 'test' commit transaction commit transaction
I have tried the coding above, it won't prevent others from locking table1.
So, I changed the tablock to tablockx to prevent others from locking table1. But this will also prevent others from reading table1. So, how can I lock table1 so others cannot lock it but still able to read it?
trying to get a new database created then running a script to created the tables, relationships, indexes and insert default data. All this I'm making happen during the installation of my Windows application. I'm installing SQL 2012 Express as a prerequisite of my application and then opening a connection to that installed SQL Server using Windows Authentication.Â
E.g.: Data Source=ComputerNameSQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=master;Integrated Security=SSPI; Then I run a query from my code to create the database eg: "CREATE DATABASE [MyDatabaseName]".
From this point I run a script using a Batch file containing "SQLCMD....... Myscriptname.sql". In my script I have my tables being created using "Use [MyDatabaseName]   Go  CREATE TABLE [dbo].[MyTableName] .....". So question is, should I have [dbo]. as part of my Create Table T-SQL commands? Can I remove "[dbo]."? Who would be the owner of the database? If I can remove the [dbo]., should I also remove dbo. from any query string from within my code?
In my environment, there is maintenance plan configured on one of the server and while running DBCC checkdb on a database of size around 200GB, log file usage of tempdb is increasing and causing the maintenance job to fail.
What can I do to make the maintenance job run successfully, size of the tempdb database is only 50GB and recovery model is set to simple. It cannot be increased as the mount point on which it is residing is 50GB.
If I start a long running query running on a background thread is there a way to abort the query so that it does not continue running on SQL server?
The query would be running on SQL Server 2005 from a Windows form application using the Background worker component. So the query would have been started from the background workers DoWork event using ado.net. If the user clicks an abort button in the UI I would want the query to die so that it does not continue to use sql server resources.
One of my stored procs, taking one parameter, is running about 2+ minutes. But if I run the same script in the stored proc with the same parameter hardcoded, the query only runs in a couple of seconds. The execution plans are different as well. Any reason why this could happen? TIA.
Hello everyone,I have a web project where users access a aspx page to view information stored in an SQL database.My client want that one user can access a row of information and see it, all other users shouldn't be able to view or update the same row?it means whenever a row of data is displayed by some user, this row should be locked even for beeing viewed by all other users, when this user close this page, this row will be available. ?I should do this in code behind or something in sql...How can I do that???
An application we are designing is behaving rather strangely. Basically, we have a trigger on SQL 2000 on W2K Server watching for a record update. When that happens a stored procedure gets executed which in turn spawns a VB that extracts that record, applies some rules to it, and writes a text file to disk. 9 out of 10 times, this program will cause a CPU spin, and it can't be killed from the Task Manager.
I did not write the VB app, I am writing the front end for the application in ColdFusion, but I need some ideas on what might be causing such behavior and how can the problem can be diagnosed. Thanks for any help!
Is it good practice to use WITH (NO LOCK) on SELECT statements, ie SELECT * FROM MyTable WITH(NO LOCK) Or does the SQL Server optimiser automatically use WITH (NO LOCK) ?
Hi, i have a big problem , i work with sql 2000 on windows 2000. When user do a select against my database sqlserver lock all the table and nonoe can work. Haw can i change the isolation level for a ropw and for all the db. Thanks.
Wondering if anyone might have a guess about this.
I have a small 4 table DB. it's got several stored proc's and it's accessed through .NET to fill it in and get data from it.
It's been working just fine. But this morning, while it was doing its thing, I experimented with it by adding then deleting a View (through the View Wizard.)
Then later I started noticing that my .Net calls had slowed to a crawl (I hadn't made any code changes)and even making direct queries through Query Analyzer had slowed too.
My question is: being that there were no network issues, could the View create/delete have caused the DB to come to a halt or perhaps a table lock-up?
While I'm at it, is there anything that I can put in stored proc's or other places to prevent locking issues (if that's what happened here.)
I already use Begin/Commit Tran pairs.
And sorry if this post doesn't read like a SQL beginner, but believe me, I am.
I'm working with SQL Server Express, and I want to configure a named instance so that only the 'sa' user and a specified SQL Server user with a specified password have access. In particular, I'm trying to lock out BUILTINAdministrators. Furthermore, I need to be able to do this from a command-line, since I want to configure it in a script. Nothing I do seems to work.
I've attempted to use sqlcmd and the T-SQL call ALTER LOGIN [BUILTINAdministrators] DISABLE, but that returns the error "Cannot alter the login 'BUILTINAdministrators' because it does not exist or you do not have permission."
What I can (apparently) successfully do is run DENY CONTROL TO [BUILTINAdministrators]. This runs without reporting an error. However, after running it against the 'master' database and the specific database in my named instance I care about, I can still run the following:
sqlcmd -S (local)MyInstance -d MyDB -Q "select * from my_table"
and see the contents of my_table.
What do I need to do to restrict access exclusively to 'sa' and other SQL users I designate?
Hello. I need to insert some records to an accounting table and calculate the balance after that. Thus, other users can be trying to do the same. How to lock the db and make the other users wait until the right moment? I'm using SqlDataSource to do that. Thanks.
hi all iam working on a ticketing application i want to avoid two users to book the same ticket the requirement is as follows 1. the system should show all the available tickets which is not yet booked 2.when two users book the ticket at the same time time it should not allow the two persons to update at the same tme the main aim is to avoid data concurency how can i get this done
Hi,all: This problem almost drives me crazy, hope I can get some hints from you guyz!!! Ok, here is the situation: I wanna only one users 2 modify the data(update) from my page each time, and if at the same time, there are some other users connecting my database through .aspx page, they can only browse the data until the first users finish updating. It seems I need to implement locking the database, but I am not sure how I am gonna do that using asp.net!!! Thanx in advance!
hi, i have an application that updates some records in sql tables, and i want to do a web application that updates records in the some database-table(sql) so, my question is how can i lock the row or table so i dont have concurrency problems.tnx in advance.
I have a process that is running on a windows service that feeds a web applications database. While the windows service is processing the data the web application can't get to the data, this causes a minute or two delay, no so bad if it didn't happen every two minutes. What I am wondering is if I can set something on the ado.net transaction object that might get me around this problem. I don't know if i want a dirty read, because that would cause the web app to have exceptions. Any tips around this would be great. Thanks in advance
