I use SQL 2005 Database in my ASP.Net 2.0 site, I have to require admin backup db for me every time, I hope to I can backup by myself , how can I do? You know Microsoft SQL Server Database Publishing Wizard can restore DB easily! Many thanks!
My problem relates to backing up my MS SQL 2005 database which is sitting on a shared server at a hosting company.
OVERVIEW: - Hosting company is using MS SQL 2005 - I am using the SQL Server Management Studio that comes with SQL Server 2005 Standard (NOT Express), which is installed on MY PC. - So, I am connecting to the SQL server over the internet
WHAT I WANT TO ACHIEVE: - I would like to backup the data sitting on the Hosting company's MS SQL Server. I only have one database on this SQL Server. There are of course 100s of other databases on the same server which belong to other customers of the hosting company.
- I want to bring the backup to MY PC, from the SQL Server.
- As far as I can tell the following options within SQL Server Management Studio may be of help to me. I do not know which one I should use or which one is best or what is the proper method. 1) Select Backup option from the Tasks menu (but it only shows me drives/devices on the Hosting SQL Server, not my PC, so I can’t backup to my PC) 2) Export Data (it does not work, showing errors ‘…not a trusted connection…’ I have no clue what a trusted connection is. 3) Copy Database (which is supposed to copy the remote database on the Hosting company SQL server, to my local SQL Server running on my PC). I go through the wizard, on the last screen it just hangs i.e. shows- not responding)
MY QUESTION TO THE COMMUNITY: How do I backup the database sitting on the hosting company SQL server? I of course need to bring the backup to my PC.

hi all, I have a remote(online) database of my web portal. I want to take backup of that remote(online) database to my local machne. This is SQL Server 2005 database. Please tell me how I take backup of my database?
I got a problem when I tried to backup SQL 7.0 database to a remote location. The situation isthat I have two SQL Servers (both are SQL Server 7), They are in the same domain, but in two different NT servers mechines. When I create a new backup device, I can only see the local partitions.
I tried to use T-SQL to create the backup device. It can create it, but when I tried to use it, I got a error message, saying the disk not exist.
I thought that might have something to do with disk sharing, but not sure. Can any of you give me some advice on how I can access the remote partitions from SQL's Enterprise Manager? Thank you very much!
Hi, I have a database on a remote server, and want to take a back up of that to my local system. My objective is to take the back up of the db, and then restore it to another SQL Server. Can anyone please help me with this.

I €˜d like to discus with you the following REAL enough disaster scenario: 1. The TEST database is in the FULL backup mode. 2. WE have a full TEST DB backup and all tr. log backups. 3. DBA moved TEST database OFFLINE for maintenance operations. 4. MDF file for TEST DB was removed by mistake. 5. TRANSACTION LOG (LDF) file is OK. 6. DBA want to recover database to the point of failure. According with MS SQL Server 2000 documentation it is possible. We need to backup the transaction log , BUT I CANNOT DO THIS. PLEASE, HELP. In the same time, I can make LDF backup and recover database to the point of failure, if database is online and I stop/start SQL Server to remove MDF file.
I am trying to look at a friends database that they have developed. Not having used SQL Server Express before I am experiencing problems trying to remotely connect to their database.
He connects locally just fine of course.
I get the error message about remote connectionsand the default settings so I have enabled TCP/IP and Named Pipes as well as cleared SQLSERVER Express in my firewall settings. I also stopped and restarted the service, but still get the same error message.
My connection parameters are like:
Server type: Database Engine Server name: http://sql.exampledatabase.net (should http be here? have tried with and without same error) Authentication: SQL Server Authentication (windows authentication? If so, how do I change to such?) Login: http://username (should http be here? have tried with and without same error) Password: password
TITLE: Connect to Server ------------------------------ Cannot connect to http://sql.exampledatabase.net
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 53)
I have created a ASP.NET application on a development server that accesses a SQL Server 2005 database on the same server. This application runs flawless. However when I try to connect the same application to an identical database on a remote SQL Server database I get the following error " Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection." I actually backed up the database on the development server, and then restored the same database on the remote server. I can see the original ASPNET user account in the security tab of the restored database. However I cannot connect. The remote server has ASP.NET 2.0 installed. I have created a security database on the remote server (aspnetdb) and added the same login credentials as on the development server. I have changed the database connection strings in the web.config file to point to a: to the remote database only, and b: to both the remote database and the remote security database (aspnetdb).
i'm using sql server 2005 developer edition. In sql server 2000, when i connect to my remote database, i just need to provide my IP address, server name with password in Query Analyzer. However, i do not know how to connect to remote database in SQL Server 2005. I did allow local and remote connection using Surface Area Configuration. However, after setting this, i do not know where to input the IP add, server name and pwd as well...>_<.
I've developed an asp.net 2.0 web app with vs 2005 and am using a SQL Server 2005 Express database. The app works fine locally, but after uploading to the remote web server the following error occures: An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)
How do I go about granting remote connections to SQL Server Express?
Does the web server have to have SQL Server Express installed in order to run apps that utilize SQL Server 2005 Express databases?
Do I grant access locally on my machine or do I have to be on the web server to grant remote connections?
I've been using .net 1.1 with access databases for the past couple of years, so this is all new to me.
When copying data to a remote SQL2K5 destination from a SQL2K5 source database, both using mixed sql server security mode, my job generates the following error:
[Transfer SQL Server Objects Task] Error: Execution failed with the following error: "Cannot apply value null to property Login: Value cannot be null..".
This occurs after the destination database tables have been truncated and replacement data from the source would begin to copy.
The same process can be successfully completed from the Management studio with a simple data export process. However, when I run the saved package again from the BI interface, I get this error.
My search engine searches have yielded numerous hits of others having the same problem with one microsoft rep indicating it was a bug and would be resolved in sp1. I am working with sp1. Oddly, there is only mention of this in the forums. No KB article from MS addresses the problem and I do not see it addressed elsewhere at sqlservercentral.
It appears that others have switched to Integrated Security and resolved the problem. However, I do not have that option with a remotely hosted database.
Does anyone have any information concerning this problem?
I have a SQL Server 2005 database (called BDHSE) in a PC which i call PC1. I have a second PC (PC2) and both are within a network (a WLAN).
What i want is to have access to BDHSE from an application in VB6 (APP1) running in PC2. All the INSERT, DELETE, UPDATE records process is done through APP1.
APP1 ia currently running in PC1 and is to be installed on PC2.
I have these questions:
1. What do i need to install in PC2 since all the INSERT, DELETE, and UPDATE is done using APP1? I guess i only have to install the Microsoft SQL Native Client (with all the prerequisites of course) but i am not sure.
2. In the APP1 made in VB6, do i have to change the connectionstring since i am accesing the database which physically is at PC1 and the APP1 will be used in PC2?
3. Any advice you can give me on doing this will be well received.
I have a problem when i restore my .DAT_BAK file. I am getting error like "The backup set holds a backup of a database other than existing database. Restore Database is terminating abnormally".
I tried by using
RESTORE DATABASE <DATABASENAME> FROM DISK = 'D:DATAMYTEST.DAT_BAK' WITH MOVE 'VZAI_DATA' TO D:PROGRAM FILES..MSSQLTEST.MDF', MOVE 'VZAI_LOG' TO D:PROGRAM FILES..MSSQLTEST.LDF', REPLACE
And also i tried like
RESTORE DATABASE <DATABASENAME> FROM DISK = 'D:DATAMYTEST.DAT_BAK'
WITH REPLACE
When i use like this,
RESTORE FILELISTONLY FROM DISK = 'D:DATAMYTEST.DAT_BAK'. I am able to get the output as LogicalName, PhysicalName, Type, FileGroupName, Size, etc.

I am trying to backup the sql database files from a local computer to a server location through vb.net 2005. Is there a simple way to do this? Every time I try to detach the database, I cannot because the database is in use. Is there something I am missing with this?
I am using Veritas backup exec 10.d with sql agent. I am able to see the sql express studio 2005 database files but there is difference in file size between original database file and the one shows in sql agent backup selection. The backup performs 100% successful but the original database file size is different e.g( original file:350MB, backup file: 28MB)..
Fellow Devs, I have an instance of SQL Server Express 2005 running on another box and I have Remote Connections enabled over both TCP/IP and Named Pipes, but on my other box I keep getting the error that the server does not accept Remote Connections. Any ideas why this might be happening? Is there some other configuration?
I have sqlexpress 2005 on my local machine - but my hoster has sql 2000 - so i used the DB publishing wizard to create the script and sent it over to them - they are now saying that they need a .bak file in 2000 to host my database - is this a bunch of horse hockey or not? if this is legit - any ideas on how I can create a .bak 2000 sql from sqlexpress 2005?
I have 20+ databases on the SQL Cluster. How can I give a user the permission to backup any database without giving sysadmin access ? I dont want to make the user dbo on all databases either.
I know it's not possible to backup a database in SQL2005, and restore to 2000. But, I've been asked if there are any 3rd party tools which can do this - such as SQL Litespeed - but I can't see anything regarding this on their website.
Does anyone know if litespeed or Redgate SQL Backup can restore to 2000 from 2005 ?
I'm getting this message on my third automated backup of the transaction logs of the day. Both databases are in full recovery mode, both successfully backed up at 01.00. The transaction logs backed up perfectly happily at 01:30 and 05:30, but failed at 09:30.
The only difference between 05:30 and 09:30's backups is that the log files were shrunk at 08:15 (the databases in question are the ones that sit under ILM2007, and keeping the log files small keeps the system running better).
Is it possible that shrinking the log files causes the database to think that there hasn't been a full database backup?
I am using sql server 2005 and unable to restore backup file(.bak) file when i ry to restore it to other database it shows following error
restore failed for server (microsoft.sqlserver.smo) additional information: system.data.sqlclient.sqlerror : the media set has 2 media families but only 1 are provided.All members nust be provided.(microsoft.sqlserver.smo)
I'm trying to see the differences between Backup/Restore and Attach/Detach. I backup and detach a database from SQL Server 2000 SP3 and then attach and restore it to SQL Server 2005 SP1.
The differences I noticed are:
1. The restored database has a much larger initial size (database size is same) for data and log. 2. The attached database has a last backup date 3. If the backup is restored over a database, the restored database is showing owned by the database owner of the database restored over but syslogins and sysusers do not match.
I don't understand why #1 happens.
Are there any other differences between Backup/Restore and Attach/Detach?
hi i have a database file backup which is having no extension (eg saims) . Can i create a database using this backup in sql server expression edition. Or else is there any way to get the .mdf file from sql server 2005 full edition?????????????? Thanx in advance
I have 2 different servers that run nightly backup jobs to a network drive using the UNC format. I am noticing the larger databases encountering the following errors on a regular basis
Error: 18210, Severity: 16, State: 1. '\fnfssql3SQLBackupsMNSQL05<database>.BAK'. Operating system error 64(The specified network name is no longer available.). BACKUP failed to complete the command BACKUP DATABASE <database>. Check the backup application log for detailed messages.
There are 5 databases on this server all backed up by the same job and 3 of them wortk fine and 2 of them fail so it is not a permissions problem. Have there been any problems with backing up to a network drive in 2005?
Hi all,I have an SQL server in Colorado and one in Atlanta. Is it possible inSQL to mirror the two SQL servers? Meaning, once a day have the serverin Colorado send all changes made to the server in Atlanta? Or am Ilooking at purchasing some type of formal backup software?TIA
I have been unable to use DMO to back up a DB anywhere but locally on the PC running the DMO code. Even if a network drive is mapped (eg. F:), the backup fails.
I'm trying to automate a backup process for server(s) that will run on a PC and store the backup file on the server that contains the DB. Has anyone done this? Any hints are appreciated.
