Awe Settings
May 6, 2002I am running AWE on SQL 2000 (the server has 8 gig of RAM). I have the SQL Server set to use a max of 6 gig. The server hung unexpectedly (SQL showed no errors or signs). Has anyone had any problems with using AWE, and or any suggestions or changes I might need to do?
Thanks

Collation Settings
Jul 16, 2002New SQL2000 installation into which I've copied data from multiple SQL7 installations. Some of the databases I've copied over from a SQL7 server with code page 850, sort order/collation 42, using the detach-copy mdf/ldf-attach procedure outlined elsewhere on this site (thank you). Other databases have been DTS'd from another SQL7 server with code page 850, sort order/collation 44.
In the end I want all databases to be in the default Latin1_General_CI_AI collation I've chosen for my installation.
I'm off to immerse myself in collation papers and alter database documentation from BOL, but was hoping someone could enlighten me in a less painful way.
Thanks,
Al
Regoinal Settings
Mar 27, 2008Hi all
I've got a problem with an American software vendor, who's asked me to check and adjust the regional settings within SQL Express 2005, installed on an XP SP2 pc
I'm scanning meta data into this database
If I enter a date field with a UK date format, I get an error in the SQL logs
If I enter a date field with a US date format, everything is fine
The XP box is setup with all UK region settings
I've been told that my SQL install should automatically use the region settings from whatever OS that it's installed on
I've checked everywhere within SQL, and it all looks to be setup with UK region settings
I suggested to the software vendor that the problem lies with their software
Can anyone suggest if I've missed anything, or where I should be checking my region settings within SQL?
Kind Regards
Tonasis

SQL Configuration Settings Being Ignored?
Sep 13, 2006I am sure I'm being blind here (it wouldn't be the first time - and won't be the last time).
I have a package that retrieves some values from SQL table to allow me to dynically create an email message, so it retrieves To Addresses, From Address, Header, Body from a table, populates variables, and uses expressions to assign those to the SEND MAIL TASK.
That is working (after a bit of head/wall/banging to get my default virtual SMTP server running locally).
Now I am trying to make the SMTP Server Name dynamic. The Property SMTPConnection specifies the SMTP Connection Manager to use, and not the server, so it doesn't seem as though I can configure a property on the SEND MAIL TASK to achieve this.
Now I'm focussing on using SQL Package Configurations to try and drive this. As I see it, just like XML configurations, if you change a value in the configuration source, then when the package runs, it get's that value, and uses it.
I have change the configuration value (outside of the package). I confirm it is actually changed by running a SQL Task that gets the value from the configuration table, and view the value assigned to the variable in watches. The value returned is a different value (in my case I changed it to an invalid servername), and yet the task still runs through successfully, using the previous SMTP servername.
huh?
SQL 8 Password Settings
Sep 29, 2006I wanted to know if there is a way to enforce security settings on SQL 8 Server. Specifically password lengths, expiration,e tc. These servers run on a Windows Platform, so if it is not possible to enforce passwords at the database level can the windows passwords parameters be enforced for the server.
Also, how would I be able to find the last changes made to the tables within the database.

Where And How Can Timeout Settings Be Changed
Nov 6, 2006I have a page that uses an SQLDataSource web control to populate a GridView control. The SQLDataSource control uses three parameters, one of which is a text string (varchar(50)). I get timeout expired exceptions when I run the page with two specific string values, yet when I run the stored procedure in SqlSvr Management Studio, the procedure runs in 5 seconds and under 1 seconds. Being rnew to ASP.NET 2.0 and .Net in general, I have no idea where this lag is occurring. I would like to know two things:
1. What is causing the lag that causes the timeout in ASP.NET 2.0.
2. What can be done to adjust the timeout period SQLSVR, IIS, ASP.NET).
The underlying query is running as desired (considering the data it has to chew on). For all other values, data is returned almost instantanious. I can provide a copy of the query id need be.
Truly appreciate any insight you can give me!
Incorrect Settings Arithabort
Dec 3, 2007INSERT [DELETE] failed because the following SET options have incorrect settings: 'ARITHABORT'. Verify that SET options are correct for use with indexed views and/or indexes on computed columns and/or query notifications and/or xml data type methods.
On local dev machine with SQL Express DB everything works fine. Once moved to shared hosting environment (with adjustments to web.config), insert and delete stored procedures produce the above error.
Made sure that stored procedures SET ARITHABORT ON at the beginning and OFF at the end, without success. Even SET ARITHABORT ON at DB level without success.
Suggestions appreciated

Changing ConnectionString Settings
Jun 5, 2006Hello all. I created an app locally with VWD Express and moved it to to our server but I am getting the following error...
An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file D:WebApp_DataSurvey.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share.
This is the connectionstring from the web.config file used on the server. I did not change anything from the local copy.
<connectionStrings>
<add name="SurveyConnectionString1" connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|Survey.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>
What settings do I need to change in order for this to work? Any advice is appreciated. Thanks.
Changing Language Settings
Jan 23, 2004Hi,
I was wondering how to change the language settings on SQL Server. The server is currently set to US English, and I was wondering how it is possible to change it to UK English. The Server Regional Settings are set to UK English.
Also, on a semi-related topic, does SQL Server store dates in a universal format, and then when data is requested does it 'translate' these dates into the format required by that particular regional setting?
Thank you for any input

View 2 Replies View RelatedAre Transactional Settings Used Only During Updates?
Jul 20, 2005Hi,In the Web application I am working on, data is read from a SQL Serverdatabase. At any time, there are about 15 people browsing the web.The SQL Server database is updated with new information once everyhour. The update takes a couple of minutes. The isolation level duringthe update is so to Serialazable so that the front-end does not getany incorrect data.Now, here is my problem. When the web page is being loaded, the serverside ASP.NET code uses several SELECT statements at multiple places.For various design reasons, these SELECT statements cannot be combinedinto a single statement. As a result, it may happen that during thepage load, we get some data before an update and some data after anupdate.I am wondering if I must used a transactional lock even for the Webapplication although technically it is not updating the database.Also, after playing with various transactional settings, I noticed thefollowing behavior for the readers when a writer enters a transaction:1. If the reader app has not yet executed the query, the call to queryexecution blocks until the writer has done its job.2. If the reader app has already begun executing the query, the callis not blocked and SQL Server provides the needed isolation.I do not wish to block the readers while the update is going on.Ideally, I would like it to be such that even if the writer isupdating, the readers must continue to get the old data, that is,until the writer commits the update. However, I did not find anyisolation settings that would let me achieve this non-blockingbehavior. Am I missing something?Thank you in advance for enlightening me.Pradeep

TCP/IP Settings In SQL Server 2005
Mar 17, 2008I recently installed SQL Server on a machine running Windows Server 2003. Before it was on my desktop. When I checked the TCP/IP settings under configuration manager, I noticed it doesnt have anything for my IP address. I just have a entry for the 127.0.01 loopback address. I know when I had it installed on my desktop there was a entry for my IP address. Is this ok or did something go wrong and it didnt set the IP address? I can still login and access the databases fine from Managament Studio.
Also would it better to have the services run as a network service or a local service?

Managing Security Settings Remotely
Mar 3, 2008Hi.
I have a website and database using membership which is running successfully on my remote hosting server.
When I go online, I can add a new member because my login page contains a login .NET component.
Question: Is there anyway I can, as the adminstrator, manage the security settings for the members (delete members, define/assign roles etc.) on line?
Or do I have to do it locally on my PC, and then update the remote database? (hopefully not...)
Thanks in advance,

Error When Trying To Change Server Settings
Aug 4, 2004I am trying to connect to a SQL Server machine using SQL security instead of integrgated security. However, the server was setup initially to use only integrated security. When I right click on the server and select properties, I get this error:
Error 0: Cannot load the DLL xpstar.dll, or one of the DLLs it references. Reason: 5(Access is denied.).
I googled this error but could not find a single solution. The dll will not register with regsvr32. Do I need to repair SQL Server and then re-run the latest service pack, or is there a simple solution?
Thanks,

View 2 Replies View RelatedCopying Personalization Settings To Another Field
Feb 24, 2006Im trying to store default page layouts for the different Roles created in my membership provider. Depending on the job code of my employee, they get different default formats of the website. What I thought at first would be easy, is proving to be a bit of a pain. I guess what I need to know are two things:
1) How can I create an image field in my aspnet_Roles table, and set the length = 6000 to match the 'PageSettings' field in the aspnet_PersonalizationPerUser table? By default the image is set to 16, and wont allow me to change it. (this might not make a difference, Im not sure)
2) How do I copy this binary data back and forth from one table to another? I realize its actually a pointer, but why cant I copy the pointer to another field?
I appreciate any help available.
Keeping Relationship Settings On Export
Sep 19, 2000I'm exporting a large database. In enterprise manager the settings on
all of the PK/FK relationships are that
"Enable relationship for Insert AND Update" is UNchecked.
I need it this way, so I can delete and insert to the tables
without being hassled by THE MAN.
When I export the database, using DTS I export all the objects (EVERYTHING),
and all the data too. When I open the freshly copied database and get
properties on any relationship "Enable relationship for Insert AND Update"
is CHECKED! ARGH!
How do I keep this from happening? I'm so frustrated.
It is very time consuming to uncheck that darn box on hundreds
of relationships. Why doesn't it just stay the way it is set in
the original source DB ??
Is there a way to export a database and keep it EXACTLY the same?
If anyone can help me with this it would save me dozens of hours in work.
Thanks in advance.
