I'm developing an application in ASP.Net that uses SQLServer. The database person in the team wants to have each user have a seperate login to the database so he can tell who has done what changes in the database. Is this a good practice? Or are their performancesecurity issues with this model?
View 3 RepliesHello, everyone:
I want to check how many users are using a special database and table. How to do that? Thanks.

We are trying to setup security on our Sql Server. We are using Integrated
Security.
The problem we are having is that we need to have a user belong to multiple groups within one database. The user would have different rights depending upon which group they belonged to.
So far we have not found anyway to accomplish this setup.
I would appreciate any ideas/thoughts on this matter.
Thanks,

I don't know whether this question belong here, but....
In the past I had many customers using the same website each with their own domain name and their own database. To accomplish that, I used MS Access and placed each customers database in separate directories. I steered the customer to the correct directory using their domain name. I am now trying to accomplish the same thing using aspnetdb.mdf and other .mdf database files. I am using the aspnetdb.mdf database for membership, etc. I want the aspnetdb.mdf database file to be unique for each customer. Does anyone know how to accomplish what I was doing with MS Access using aspnetdb.mdf? Is there any way to have multiple web.config files each of which would be dedicated to a particular customer?
I have been using the software, and it has been working fine (on windows user A). Now, I have created another windows user (User B), and would like to use the same software/database. The software launches fine (User B), but cannot access the created SQL database (created with user A)
How do I setup the database to allow access from all users on the same PC?
Hello,
Ho do I allow multiple users to share a database?

I have developed a Windows App in VS.NET 2005 which connects to a SQL 2005 Express database.
Now I want to install the app and database on the network and I am getting an error "File 'file_name' is on a network device not supported for database files"
What is the best way to get this working
Thanks in advance,

My developers would like a 'sandbox' database with full ddl and dml permissions, however, they do not want others to read/change/drop their objects. With SQL 2005, can DDL permissions be granted to a user at the schema level? I'd rather not set up a database for each developer.
I am really a DB admin beginner, so hopefully it'll be easy for you to answer my simple question:
How can I temporarily prevent users (except "sa") from logging to database(s) or better to DB Server while there are applied scripts on them ?
I have already tried TCP/IP port changing, hiding server, running a single user mode but the reult was very poor. Please note that "sa" has to be able to connect to DB Server from a third party application but other users not.
Any idea and/or a known solution ?
Thanx in advance for your hints

I have had this issue just pop up. I have local users who can connect fine, but my users that require connection by VPN cannot connect. I get the server not available or access denied error. I did confirm that the VPN'ers are connected to the network correctly and can see that their shares and mappings are correct. Any ideas? Thanking you all in advance!!

We have an application where users log in and set up a ConnectionString based on the login-info. As to now, we have used
Application.Contents("conn") = (strConnectionString)
in Global.asax.vb (Application_Start section) and then in the in the webforms we use
Dim con As New SqlClient.SqlConnection
con = New SqlClient.SqlConnection(Application("conn"))
con.Open()
......
......
con.close()
(Each user has their own sql database that they connect to using the same scripts.)
The question is: When many users are logged on at the same time, will the use of Application.Contents be a safe way to connect to each users own database or is there a possibility that users suddenly will try to establish a connection to a database that is not their own?
Scenario: User1 logs in at 10:00 and establish a connection to his own database. At 10:05 User2 logs on and establish a connection to his database since Global.asax.vb is run again. Will User1 now use User2's connection so that he is actually woking on User2's database?
Is there a better/safer way to do this connection in Global.asax.vb ?
Help much appreciated!!!!
Hi Team,
In SQL Enterprise Manager, when we expand "Database -->Users", we see the
users there. When we expand "Security --> logins" we see the same users there.
Can you differentiate these two.
Thanks

Hi, I am building a web application now that will be used by multiple users. Users import data from a CSV into table 'temp' which is later converted to the right data type and then moved to another table, but I was wondering what would happen if more than 1 user was importing different files at the same time.Will this create a problem, if so how can I fix this?Thanks for the help.
View 3 Replies View RelatedWe have an OLTP application with multiple one to many tables relationships that are edited client side. For Example the primary table has descriptive components. One of the multiple table have things like parts and quantity ordered linked by a record number back to the primary table.
When our client transmits their transaction, they actally running a batch job which sends all the client side tables to the SQL Server and then we are trying to issue a stored procedure server side to push this data into our 'dbo' owned server side master tables.
Our problem is generating the fully qualified table name for the from clause.
We have tried declaring a variable but the stored procedure won't compile. Tried user, user_name().
Any solutions would be greatly appreciated.
Greetings,
I am developing a package on my local workstation. I have defined two logging service providers. One is for SQL Server and the other is for the Windows Event Log. I am using the Dts.Log method in a script task to write log entries.
Logging is working properly with the SQL Server provider and rows are being inserted into the sysdtslog90 table. However, the only events that are being logged in the Windows Event Log are the package start and end events which I believe SSIS is doing automatically anyway.
Is there something I need to do to enable WIndows Event Log logging other than defining a log provider and making sure it is checked active? Won't SSIS write to two different logs with one Dts.Log call? Any ideas on what might be going wrong with my approach?
Thanks,

Dear all
In our organization there is a call center where operators entry call details and custormer qruery in a table using front end application. For these queries there are multiple no of executive who will reply the query using a front end application. using the application the exectives retrive specific no of records from call center table(if there are unreplied call exists) and reply them. When a excutive retrives specfic no of rows, i want to update a flag in that rows, so that others do not get them.
I use the following procedure which is creating dead lock when multiple users execute it simultaneously
create procedure get_from_maintab @cnt int
as
declare @slno int,@curcnt int
select @curcnt=1
set rowcount 1
while @curcnt<=@cnt
begin
begin tran
select @slno=serial_no from maintab where getflag=''
if @@rowcount=0
begin
rollback
return
end
update maintab set getflag='Y' where serial_no=@slno and getflag=''
if @@rowcount = 0
begin
rollback
return
end
insert into detab select fld1,fld2,fld3 from maintab where serial_no=@slno
if @@rowcount = 0
begin
rollback
return
end
commit tran
select @curcnt=@curcnt+1
end
set rowcount 0

We are currently using Crystal reports but are considering using SQL RS. We need to know if there is a restriction on simultanoeus access to the same report by multiple users? What happens when multiple users try to access the same report simultaneously? If reports can be accessed simultaneously, do the requests queue up or are they processed concurrently?
Any help on this issue is greatly appreciated.
Hi,
I decided to use the SQL Server log provider to store logging data of all my Integration Services packages. I also created some reports about this data for operating purposes.
I have a problem occurs the name of the executing package is not always written to the log,but the name of the single task which failed. But that is not very useful information for operating, because I do not see any chance to get the name of the package by the information which is logged in the sysdtslog90 table in the database which I defined for SSIS Logging.
How do I configure the package to always log the package information into the table, too?
Best regards,
Stefoon
Hi, i just need some help?? just some info?is it TRUE that SQL Server 2005 Express Edition (free) is capable ONLY of SINGLE user?i mean if i have a data driven page, if someone is using or editing the data in my page, does no one can access my data base simultaneously??i hope you could enlighten my mind, thanks
View 2 Replies View Relatedbasically, is it inefficient to open and close a data connection everytime data needs to be retrieved or is there a way for a user to use the same conenction over multiple pages orfor multiple users to share one global data connection I just wanted to know this before I built a site where data could be constantly being pulled or put into the database.It would be easier to just keep opening and closing the connection since it just means pasting in the small chunk of code I use to do that where I need it. I hear speak of connections sometimes not closing etc and wonder if that is an issue then if you are opening and closing too many of them. I am using SqlConnection SqlCommand and SqlDatareader , my code works, just wondering if my approach lacked scalability before I find out too late and have to rewrite everything . Jim

Hi Everybody,
I am trying to setup a stored procedure that runs through a Reminders table and sends an email to users based on DateSent field being smaller than todays date. I have already setup the stored procedure to send the email, just having trouble looping through the recordset.
Code Snippet
CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[hrDB_SendEmail]
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @FirstName nvarchar(256),
@LastName nvarchar(256),
@To nvarchar(256),
@ToMgr nvarchar(256),
@Subject nvarchar(256),
@Msg nvarchar(256),
@DateToSend datetime,
@Sent nvarchar(256),
@ReminderID int,
@RowCount int,
@Today datetime,
@Result nvarchar(256)
-- Get the reminders to send
SELECT
@ReminderID = r.intReminderID,
@DateToSend = r.datDateToSend,
@FirstName = e.txtFirstName,
@LastName = e.txtLastName,
@To = e.txtEmail,
@Subject = t.txtReminderSubject,
@Sent = r.txtSent
FROM
(auto_reminders r INNER JOIN employee e ON r.intEmployeeID = e.intEmployeeID) INNER JOIN ref_reminders t ON r.intReminderType = t.intReminderTempID
WHERE
(((r.datDateToSend)<20/12/09) AND
((r.txtSent)='False'))
-- Send the Emails
WHILE(LEN(@To) > 0)
BEGIN
EXEC @Result = sp_send_cdosysmail @To, @ToMgr, @Subject, @Msg
END
-- Mark the records as sent
IF @Result = 'sp_OAGetErrorInfo'
BEGIN
SELECT @Sent = 'Error'
END
ELSE
BEGIN
SELECT @Sent = 'True'
END
UPDATE auto_reminders
SET
auto_reminders.txtSent = @Sent, auto_reminders.datDateSent = @Today
WHERE
intReminderID = @ReminderID
END
GO
From the code you can probably tell I am new to writing stored procedures, so I apologise for any obvious errors. My major problems are :-
how to loop through each record
how to get todays date
whether the struture of the procedure is correct
Also, if you think there is an easier way or a better method, please suggest it. I am open to any suggestions you may have,
Thanks in advance

I have a query running and returning 3 columns, user name, e-mail and device name
SELECT DISTINCT v_R_User.Full_User_Name0 AS 'User full Name', v_R_User.Mail0 AS 'E-Mail', _RES_COLL_DEV00144.Name
FROM v_R_System INNER JOIN
v_R_User ON v_R_System.User_Name0 = v_R_User.User_Name0 INNER JOIN
_RES_COLL_DEV00144 ON v_R_User.User_Name0 = _RES_COLL_DEV00144.UserName INNER JOIN
v_GS_COMPUTER_SYSTEM ON v_R_System.ResourceID = v_GS_COMPUTER_SYSTEM.ResourceID
Where v_R_User.Mail0 <> ''
ORDER BY 'User Full Name'
From here I would like to generate an e-mail to each user (like mail merge) to each user in the table an include their machine name. I can do it with PS, but rather have it run directly from SQL. Is it possible?
i have a report that runs on a huge table rpt.AgentMeasures , it has 10 months worth of data (150 million records as of today and will keep increasing). i have pasted my proc below , the other tables that are joined to this huge table do not have more then 3k records.This report will be accessed by multiple users (expecting 20 ppl). as of now this reports runs for 5 mins if i pull for 1 month worth of data. if it is wise to use temp tables.

Hi all!
I have a friend who is a contract developer working remotely for a company on a SQL Server + VB project. He is having difficulty because someone at the company is making changes to the database tables without informing him, and of course then there are numerous application errors. This has happened far too many times for him to dismiss it. Examples of these changes are changing field names, deleting fields, changing datatypes, even changing the server name. My question is does SQL Server automatically log changes to the database, and if so, how can this log be read?
Thanks!

I am tring to send an email reminder to multiple users using a cursor.
declare emailCursor cursor for

open emailCursor
fetch next from emailCursor into @Name,@info, @Recipients,@MyMessage
while(@@FETCH_STATUS = 0)

@recipients = @Recipients,
@from_address = '<address.com>',
@Body = @MyMessage,
@subject = 'Subject'
fetch next from emailCursor into @Name,@info, @Recipients,@MyMessage
end
close emailCursor
deallocate emailCursor
Currently I have two users in my table that I want to send email to, but when the stored procedure runs I got two emails for the last user in the table instead one for each user.
I have a requirement to delete all the orphans users for the databases. The issue I am having is with when database principal owns a schema in the DB, User cannt be dropped.
How do I transfer it to DBO in case I am looping multiple databases. This is what I got so far .
declare @is_read_only nvarchar (200)
Select @is_read_only = is_read_only from master.sys.databases where name='test' /* This should be a parameter value */

Hi All,
I am a bit new to using MS-SQL, up till now my main adminstration was in Oracle.
I have a question, my developers make changes to my MS-SQL databases, however, they always login as a local admin or use their domain WIndows accounts - with the given privileges. Then they amend the database.
My idea is to avoid logging into an MS-SQL server without using a Remote Desktop. So they will need some kind of a client.
What is your experience and what would be the best way to do this? Meaning, what software can I use that does not require a license fee?
With Oracle I can install the Oracle client which has an SQLPLUS to login remotely. Does MS-SQL have something similar?
Thanks in advance.
I did use Google to search, I also have an MS-SQL Developer Edition, but this seems to come with another server itself.
Regards,
Richard.
Hi y'all, I am doing some searching in the archived threads, but I have a need to copy a table in a database to a new table in the same database, but the new table will be just a table with test data. There are several million rows in the table and I want to do the copy without logging the new inserts in the transaction log.
Is there an easy way to do this? I found this in my search efforts so far, but am just wondering if there is an easier/better way to accomplish what I want to do.
BTW, I normally wouldn't care, but the boss is complaining that it is taking too long to do the copy for a different team, so asked if I knew a way to copy data to a new table without logging. I don't, so here I am ;)
Here is what I found so far:Following 3 things need to be done
1) create table as not logged initially
2) set autocommit=off
3) and activate the not logged initially option
Now the inserts happen without the use of transaction logs
Hi,
I am using SQL Server Express Edition 2005 as a backend database working with Visual Basic 2005.
I am using Vista and having two users to access to my computer. User-1 and User-2.
I created a database in User-1 and works fine Visual Basic 2005.
Now the problem is when i login to my computer system with User-2. I cannot able to access the database with encountering error like "User-1/SQLExpress". I know that i cannot able to access to database which was created in User-1.
Do you any solution to this problem. when i login with user-1 and user-2 it should able to access database.
Thanks.

The log for our SQL 2000 database shows constant "starting up database dbname" entires. Is there a option that causes the databases to constantly be starting or is this a new feature of SQL 2000.
