How To Set Permissions For Accessing Different Server Paths
Apr 10, 2008
Currently I have an sql string which looks like this
INSERT INTO tblPDFFiles (fileType,PDFcontent) SELECT 'First test file', BulkColumn FROM OPENROWSET(Bulk 'C://Test.pdf, SINGLE_BLOB) AS BLOB
But the files i am trying to access is on a different shared server called 'test2008' now im told I can access this doing
INSERT INTO tblPDFFiles (fileType,PDFcontent) SELECT 'First test file', BulkColumn FROM OPENROWSET(Bulk '
\test2008 estpdf.pdf', SINGLE_BLOB) AS BLOB
Which I made sure had the pdf there I get the following error
SSIS package "Package.dtsx" starting.
Error: 0xC002F210 at Execute SQL Task, Execute SQL Task: Executing the query "INSERT INTO tblPDFFiles (fileType,PDFcontent) SELECT 'First test file', BulkColumn FROM OPENROWSET(Bulk '\test2008 est.pdf', SINGLE_BLOB) AS BLOB" failed with the following error: "Cannot bulk load because the file "\test2008 est.pdf" could not be opened.

How do I give access to this other server to my SSIS package
Ive just installed VS2005 Pro and SQL Server Developer edition.
Now I want to set the default paths for project, templates, settings. But I want for both VS and SQL files.
For example, right now the default folders for SQL Studio are:
.My DocumentsSQL Server Management StudioProjects
.My DocumentsSQL Server Management StudioSettings
.My DocumentsSQL Server Management StudioTemplates
.My DocumentsSQL Server Management StudioBackup Files
... and so on.
For VS Studio:
.My DocumentsVisual Studio 2005Projects
.My DocumentsVisual Studio 2005Templates
.My DocumentsVisual Studio 2005Code Snippets
... and so on.
I would like for all sub-folders(from SQL Server and VS) to be in one same folder(Development), for example:
.My DocumentsDevelopmentProjects
.My DocumentsDevelopmentSettings
.My DocumentsDevelopmentTemplates
.My DocumentsDevelopmentBackup Files
.My DocumentsDevelopmentCode Snippets
... and so on.
I have tried changing in each application´s options the default path for each one, pointing to each folder I listed above.
My problem is that both VS and SQL Server still keeps creating folders in the old locations, for example: ".My DocumentsSQL Server Management StudioProjects". This example happens when I create a new query, and try to save it, it automatically creates that folder.
It only works for a few of them, like the settings folder. Ive managed to create a single folder for SQL and VS setting files.
Is there a way I can join both Application folders? I want to keep both projects files in one folder, both setting files in one folder, and so on...
I'm curious if there's a "best practice" for setting up the data directories MS SQL will use for each operation? I've allocated independent disks for things like C: (OS), E: (DATA), etc etc etc but I'm not familiar w/ MS SQL to understand how DBA's commonly configure the folders under each unique disk for things like DATA, LOGS, BACKUP, INDEXES, and TEMPDB. Should I have an identically name folder as show below in my example?
You can see I've just mirrored the drive name to a new folder under the partition so data is being written to: F:DATA and E:LOGS. Is this considered correct / good practice? I assume naming the folder in each mount point to whatever I logically called the drive is correct but if I should change how I configure my drive paths above. I'm trying to learn common good SQL Server practices and while I work on properly installing SQL Server 2012/2014, I want to make sure I configure my partition names SQL will utilize correctly.
Hi I have sql 2000/2005 installation path errors in some of prodution servers. Like we have standards that backup files should go to E: drive and data files to f: and log files to h:. Can any one help me in this issue what can be done with out reinstallation,
We have a growing issue where we have a relative dtsconfig file (which stores the absolute base path of the ETL packages). This way we can keep the ETL projects failry portable - only having to modify one value in the dtsconfig file. The master package that defines the dtsconfig location (which is config/Default.dtsconfig) usually interpretates this location to be relative the project. The problem is that every now and again when you open this package in .NETStudio, the path is interpreted differently and causes: config/Default.dtsconfig to state invalid path. But when we delete the variable (which defines the dtsconfig path), save/close and open/recreate it works again. This may or may not be supported MS method, but I was curious to know why this gets messed up. Is there somehwere in the .NET framework that defines what "/" is relatively under?
For example: Our absolute config path is "D:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90DTSPackagesETLProjectETLBaseconfigDefault.dtsconfig" but using: "config/Default.dtsconfig" for xml file value works. However, sometimes we will get an error stating that this file cannot be found, and when we just try to delete (without saving and closing) and immediatelly try to put "config/Default.dtsconfig" again and hit next, we get an error and the path is now:
This has probably been covered in other posts. I have been working with SSIS for the past month and I am trying to follow best practices on various items. Having worked with a different ETL tool prior to this, I am wondering what is the best approach to use for Connections and File Paths.
What I would normally do with DataStage for this would be to assign a Job Variable (and eventually Sequence Variable) of the type: Path. So, if I was developing a job I would create SourceFilePath, ErrorFilePath, etc. I would use these variables in a FlatFile or Dataset Stage. For instance I would assign a filename for a source as: #SourceFilePath#SourceFile1.txt. During execution the job would load the variable and then the filename would be: C:MyDocumentsDatafilesSourceFile1.txt.
When its time to move to another environment, I don't have to worry about changing values for file connections because it is managed dynamically by a config file or whatever method.
What is the best practice that emulates this behaviour for SSIS? I've been thick and can't get my head around this. Any direction to blogs or user sites would be great. Examples, even better!
I am trying to set up a TEST ENIVORNMENT for a reservation software package. I need this setup so that I can run various scheduling scenarios in order to optimize operations. Below I have been given instructions from the software vendor on how to set up my SQL database. However, I am a little confused on what to do for a couple of the steps. They are as follows:
***In SQL server 2000 enterprise manager on the test laptop, change the 2 path settings in the table SGCONFIG. The should be changed to C:StratagenAdept5Server. ** YOU WILL NEED TO DO THIS STEP EVERYTIME YOU RESTORE A BACKUP ADEPT5_CLASTRAN.BAK FROM THE PRODUCTION TO THE TEST ENVIRONMENT
QUESTION: How do you change the path settings on a table?
***Open the .udl files in the apps folder and the server apps folder and check to see that they are pointing to the test laptop server, not the production server.
QUESTION: What are the .udl files and how do you check to see if they are pointing at the test laptop server only?
Thanks sincerely for your help. I am trying to meet a deadline for a meeting tomorrow. Therefore, I am desperate. Please send me email. rtanner@clastran.com.

What are the SQL 2005 Upgrade Paths? For example, is there a direct in-place upgrade for SQL 6.5? SQL 7.0? Can someone provide a link please? Thanks in advance.
I have created over a hundred reports and each of them are scheduled to output a pdf. The problem is this was temporary and each week I would like to output the reports to a directory that is based upon time. For example, I have 13 groups of reports and each group has 9 reports. Each group has it's own directory and folder. IE group A would be saved in something like \client filesgroup aweekly reportsMar 17 2008. The next week the reports for the same group need to be saved in \client filesgroup aweekly reportsMar 24 2008. This would be the same for each of the groups; group A, group B etc.
The question is there a way to set these paths dynamically or at least iterate through the subscriptions and change the paths?
I have an ActiveX Script Task in SQL Server 2000. It chooses one of two possible success-paths depending on if a file exist or not. (Part of the old ActiveX Script for choosing next step is below)
I need to rewrite this for a Script Task in SQL Server 2005 but it seems like it doesn't have this functionality and objects.
Does anyone know how to write the code for choosing the next step in a Script Task or knows another way to solve my problem?
The package is not suppose to fail if the file is missing, it's must succeed and that's why I need two success-paths.

I am trying to replace the path section of filenames listed in a collumn of my database. The filenames are UNC paths, and all files have 8 digit filenames with the same extension (they are all tif images). The length of the paths in the filenames will change, however.
Here is what my old paths look like:
\imageimagesNYY-MMABCDEFGH.TIF
..and here is the new path (all of the images are being consolidated into one directory):
\als-imagealscom31imagesdbABCDEFGH.TIF
------------------------------------------------------------- I have tried using the following query to do this:
update image set filename=replace(filename,'\imageimages5 0-08','\als-imagealscom31imagesdb')
This returns insanely crazy results like 460239 row affected, when it should be about a thousand. -------------------------------------------- I have also tried the following:
update image set filename=right(filename,12) + '\als-imagealscom31imagesdb' where left(filename,21) = '\imageimages5 0-08'
This affects zero rows.
Please guide me down the one true path. My coworkers are clueless and I'm quickly running out of disk on the old box.
Hi there.I've been searching for this error specifically but I haven't found anything yet.I have these two tables (USERS and REQUESTS):USERS ( [LOGIN] [varchar] (10) NOT NULL , [NAME] [varchar] (20) NOT NULL)where LOGIN is the primary key.The problem comes when I try to create the "REQUESTS" table.In these requests there's one user who types the request. After one or two days, there's other user who aproves the request. The problem is that I need two foreign keys referencing the table "USERS".CREATE TABLE REQUESTS ([ID] [numeric](5, 0) NOT NULL ,[DATE] [datetime] NOT NULL ,[NOTES] [varchar] (100) NOT NULL ,[TYPED_BY] [varchar] (10) NOT NULL ,[APROVED BY] [varchar] (10) NULL) ON [PRIMARY]GOALTER TABLE REQUESTS ADD CONSTRAINT [PK__REQUESTS__07DE5BCC] PRIMARY KEY ( [ID]) ON [PRIMARY] GOALTER TABLE REQUESTS ADD CONSTRAINT [FK__REQUESTS__TYP__15702E88] FOREIGN KEY ([TYPED_BY]) REFERENCES [USERS] ([LOGIN]) ON UPDATE CASCADE ,CONSTRAINT [FK__REQUESTS__APR__12742E08] FOREIGN KEY ([APROVED_BY]) REFERENCES [USERS] ([LOGIN]) ON UPDATE CASCADEAnd SQL returns:Introducing FOREIGN KEY constraint 'FK__REQUESTS__APR__12742E08' on table 'REQUESTS' may cause cycles or multiple cascade paths. Specify ON DELETE NO ACTION or ON UPDATE NO ACTION, or modify other FOREIGN KEY constraints.Could not create constraint. See previous errors.Ok, after that, I tried creating a new table to store aprovals (Table with two fields: "REQUEST_ID" and "APROVED_BY").So, I removed "APROVED_BY" field from "REQUESTS" and its FK constraint.The same error comes up.I don't think this structure goes into "cycles" or "multiple cascades".How can I do this?Thanks in advanceRegardsRoland
Here a code for finding all minimal loops (cyclic paths) in a graph with vertexes of degree >= 3.

I am on SQL Server 2008 R2. I have a table that contains a field called [Location]. In that field is a UNC path to the physical file on the repository. Is there a way in SQL Server that I can say give me the select sum([Location] UNC file) where criteria? I saw some posts about xp_filesize or xp_GetFileDetails, but I do not see them in master. I am unable to add anything and wondering if there is any native functionality that would allow me to accomplish this!?
Is there documentation somewhere about multiple execution paths in SSIS control flow? I didn't find documentation anywhere. I have a situation where I have two tasks that take considerable time, but could be executed in parallel (to speed up things) and I was wondering whether SSIS supports parallelism.
To illustrate the issues in simultaneous execution, I created a test SSIS package. In the package, I have five tasks, let's call them T1, T2, T3, T4 and T5. The taks are connected with "green arrows" like this:
T1->T2
T1->T3
T2->T4
T3->T4
T5 is not connected. The tasks can be e.g. Send Mail tasks, that's not relevant to this issue. I put a breakpoint in each task and execute the package.
When I execute package, T1 and T5 become active, i.e. the arrow that displays where the package execution currently is, is in two tasks simultaneously. Now F10 (step over) doesn't seem to work "Unable to step. Not implemented". If I press F5 nothing happens. After I press F5 for a second time tasks T1 and T5 and executed. Why don't they execute with the first pressing of F5? I would additionally like to know whether these two tasks are executed in parallel or sequentially, i.e. in the same thread or in two threads? Is there documentation of this?
The execution stops at T2&T3. Again, pressing F5 doesn't do anything, but the second time I press F5 T2 and T3 are executed.
I have two tables called a and b. a has one row called aId where aId is the PK. b has bId, aId_1 and aId_2 where bId is the PK and aId_1 and aId_2 both allow nulls.
If I have a relationship between aId and aId_1, and another relationship between aId and aId_2, where I set the delete rule for both to SET_NULL, then I get the error -
"may cause cycles or multiple cascade paths"
But its completely reasonable that I might wish to do this.
The funny thing is that under Visual Studio, I can create a Data Set with these tables and using the designer, I can set the both foreign key relationships to Delete Rule Set Null and everything works as expected.
So, I'm unsure now if I just need to set the Delete rules using the Dataset designer and not bother with them in the database itself.
It did not run and when I manually added the parameter it changed to: http://server/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2fNavsion%2fNavision+PO+Report&rs%3aCommand=Render&PONo=15818
I also tried to change the properties parameters settings has default unchecked and prompt unchecked
do I need to place the file in a folder on the server instead of uplading it?
Hi I have created a linked server from SQL Server 2005 (SP 1) to SQL Service 2000 (SP 4) with a sql server login that is available on both servers but with different passwords and permissions.
I am getting the following error while accessing the linked server in management studio based on the scenario given below ;
------ Error Message Starts OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "(SQL Server 2000 instance name)" returned message "Communication link failure". Msg 10054, Level 16, State 1, Line 0 TCP Provider: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host. Msg 18456, Level 14, State 1, Line 0 Login failed for user 'abc'. ------ Error Message Ends
Consider login name is abc. Now this login abc has sysadmin rights on sql server 2005. The same login abc has only db_datareader rights on sql server 2000 on just one database and is not associated with any fixed server role.
I have configured the linked server using the following options; 1. I have tried impersonating login from SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server 2000 . 2. I have also tried specifying remote login / password option.
Anyone having any idea, would be of great help. Regards, Salman Shehbaz.
Using SQL Server 2k5 sp1, Is there a way to deny users access to a specific column in a table and deny that same column to all stored procedures and views that use that column? I have a password field in a database in which I do not want anyone to have select permissions on (except one user). I denied access in the table itself, however the views still allow for the user to select that password. I know I can go through and set this on a view by view basis, but I am looking for something a little more global.
If my site is hosted with an external company web host can I use ASP.NET pages to connect to a MS SQL DB that is on my company's internal server if I had MS SQL installed on it?
My company's server is always on and always connected to the internet.
I have access to my company's server if I need to set anything up on it for this to happen.
There will not be any kind of overload as the site is not accessed constantly.
Also, would this cause any kind of security leak? If so how would I go about plugging this hole?
I'm using OLEDB in my ASP code to connect to the SQL database. When I execute the page I got an error saying "438, Microsoft VBScript runtime error, Object doesn't support this property or method" Anybody knows what this is in reference to. I tested the same site in another server where IIS and SQL are in the same box and it's working fine.
I need to write a VB app (VB6) to access and manipulate data within a MS SQL Sever 2000 database. I have experience doing this with MS Access. Is it much different/more difficult to do this with SQL Server?
Greetings. I am curently having problems with authorizations while attempting to connect to SQL Server with an Asp.NET web application. I will try to explain my problem as clearly as possible.
I am developing an Asp.NET web application with Visual Studio to connect and view a database on a remote SQL Server. In my Web.config file, I have added the line
<identity impersonate = "true"/>
In my IIS security options, I have disabled the annonymous authentication and enabled the Windows mode authentication instead. When accessing the database from my computer, by compiling and debugging my web application in Visual Studio, everything works wonder. When I try to use the web application from a remote computer using the IP address or from my own computer using localhost in the URL, it asks me for my Windows username and password, which I provide, and then refuses any further access, saying I don't have permission to even connect to the server.
How can I go around this and allow my users to connect to the server from a remote computer? My machine is running Windows XP SP2 and the server is running Windows Server 2003.
Thank you in advance for any help you may provide,
I am developing a windows application that needs to communicate with a remote SQL server 2005 database. Server allows remote connections and MSDTC service also running. Do I need to run MSDTC service on the client machine where I use desktop application ? any ideas ? It's throwing some error like 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.
But my SQL Server allows remote connection, and I am able to do a select statement. But when I insert/update anything, it's throwing this error. I guess some problem with MSDCT. Anybody have any idea ?
Hi everyone, First of all I'd like to say I'm new to the forums, and in fact new to ASP.net. I've had a couple of applications running in VB.net for the last year or so that I now am looking to move on and into ASP.net (main reason is to do with implementation to remote sites in foreign countries). I'm currently following through the "Working with data and ASP.net 2.0" walkthrough on this site, which I must say has been a great help. I'll start with the background stuff first I have my main database on an SQL server. I also have 2 other databases on there - Customer and Employee. The reason for these are that they are shared amongst my VB applications and I kept them as seperate databases so that one database is all that needs to be administered and maintained, and these changes are then seen on both apps (takes away redundant data as well). In my main database, main table, is a field called CustomerID. This value relates to the CustomerID in the Customer table. In my VB app all I do is have the user select a customer name, and then the customer ID value is copied to the CustomerID field of my main table when inserting / updating a row. This is simply accomplished with 2 SQL connections and 2 dataAdapters. I also use 2 dataSets - one for Customer, one for WorkRequests (the main database)... I use ComponentOne stuff so that my grid will show the CustomerName instead of the CustomerID etc, and the same applies when I use my Employee database - I run many dataAdapters to this for things such as Account Manager, Technologist, Creator, UpdatedBy etc etc. Now, I'm new to VS 2005 - my apps were created in VS 2003 and .net 1.1. Can I easily re-create my apps in ASP.net? My primary goal at the moment is to make sure I can load a row, and display the "lookup" values instead of the "integer" value. As my tables are in seperate databases, I would like to know the best way of accomplishing this, if it is of course possible. Help and advice much appriciated. Kind Regards, Luke
Hi Everyone, I just started using ASP.NET and I cannot figure out how to use a connection string to connect to a SQL Server database using ASP.NET. I want to use Windows Authentication to bring up a database called upsizedCandidate on a server called SQLSERVER and display a table within that database through internet explorer. I'm not sure if I should be using OLE DB or ODBC. Can anyone help me with this? Thanks in advance!
