Hope I'm not going to annoy anyone here too much but I'm looking for a place to post a job opening and was hoping that someone out there might know of a good site or two.
The job will be in the north Denver area.
Thanks! (And apologies if this is completely inappropriate behavior.)
Hi,
I am using Sql Server and excel. I create an excel report using pivot tables and the likes that is connected to a sql database and queries three views. It works fine for me because I have access to the DB. But I want everyone in my office to beable to read this excel report. When another user tries to access it, it doesn;t allow them to connect to the DB through ODBC. I was wondering how to add a group, from active directory called Everyone, to my SQL server so that everyone in my office can read this EXCEL report. I can add a user but not a group.
I was given the task of managing the DB as our IT guy left and I really was left to the wolves as this isn't really my area of expertise...

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 want to map users/groups of a .NET application which uses MS SQL Server to Windows users/groups. Then grant pemission to the Windows users/groups to access the MS SQL Server.
If possible, I want to list Windows Users and Groups regardless of whether Active Directory is used or not.
I have jsut started using SQL server 7 and am having problems with accounts permissions, users,roles, groups, owners etc what are the differences?
View 1 Replies View RelatedWe have a problem authenticating domain users contained in local machine user groups across multiple web servers in a scale out deployment.
When we originally setup our single SSRS database server we were told the a best practice is to add domain users to local user groups on the SSRS machine.
Now we want to add more web servers and create a scale-out deployment. So, we added the web servers and configured the scale-out deployment. But, only administrators can see the reports since all of our SSRS roles are assigned permissions such as "Machine1User_Group".
We were told that we have to create identical local groups on Machine2 and Machine3 and then add them to the SSRS roles. This is prohibitive since it would mean managing 3 identical user groups containing thousands of domain users.
Is there a better way to do this without using Domain User Groups?
Thank you for any assistance.
I have a new SQL 2005 (SP2) Reporting Services server to which I've just upgraded and deployed some SSRS 2000 reports.
I have a subreport that contains a matrix with two groups. The report data seems to be inexplicably repeating the data for the first row in the group for all rows in the group. Example:
ID1
ID2
DisplayData
1
1
A
1
2
B
1
3
C
2
1
A
2
2
B
2
3
C
Parent group is on ID1, child group is on ID2, report would show:
1
1
A
2
A
3
A
2
1
A
2
A
3
A
Is this a matrix bug in 2005 SP2, or do I need to do something differently? I can no longer pull a comparison version from an SSRS 2000 server to verify, but I believe it was working as expected before...
Hi,
How do we set credentials or contex to a thread.

Hi Everyone!
Just started looking into Assemblies within SQL Server in the hope of creating a multi-threaded application and when writing a basic test assembly I came across the following problem...
When I create a worker thread within my assembly I am unable to do the following in my newly created thread:
Stop on a breakpoint in VS2005
Use Debug.Writeline to output to the output window
I know the thread is running as I am able to write to the EventLog, but VS2005 seems to be unaware of any thread other than the main SQL server thread.
If anyone could tell me whether there it is possible to debug non-SQL server threads, whether I am doing something wrong, or whether I should be doing things differently that would be great!
Thanks in advance for any help!!

// Sleep to let the other one run
Thread.Sleep(2000);
// Output some debug output to show the thread is running
Debug.WriteLine("Comms is about to wait for thread to finish");
// Wait for the thread to complete
zThread.Join();
// Output some debug output to show the thread is running
Debug.WriteLine("Comms is ending");
}

// While the thread is running
while (bRunning == true)

// Output some debug output to show the thread is running
Debug.WriteLine("Thread function running");
System.Diagnostics.EventLog.WriteEntry("SQLServerThreadTest",
"Thread function is running");
// Sleep for two seconds
Thread.Sleep(5000);
}
}
catch

The reason I had to start a new thread was that the old thread seems to be closed. There is no "Reply" button showing.
I still have the same problem. The last post asked if I was sure I was using SQLExpress.
I only have SQLEXPress and I have never had anything else. Therefore the question becomes - Why does the system seem to think I have another version?

We have an application that runs Jobs, each of which affect ## number of child objects (usually around 1M). When a thread gets to 5000 updated child objects it bulk inserts into a table called ActionLog with the child Id and JobId.
When the job is complete a sproc SUMs the children from the ActionLog table:
select sum(id) from ACTIONLOG where JOBID = @JobId;
It then updates the Jobs table AffectedObjectCount column with the sum(*) from above.
Instead of writing to the ActionLog table and calculating the SUM at the end I would like to do this 'real time'. After the bulk insert I would like to update the AffectedObjectCount column with the number of rows that were just bulk inserted. I tried this in the past and ran into major contention issues. There are usually 20 threads running a job so there exists a lot of potential for deadlocks.
Is there a recommended way to handle updating one column on one row from multiple threads? What is the best practice for a counter like this?

Is it possible that i can create a SQL Server Group in sql 2005. Eg. in 2K when u right click (in Enterprise manager) on Microsoft Sql servers you can see "New Sql server Group". I am talking about this group. I have many servers in NYC and Dallas and in VA. I want to group them in the group names NYC DAL VA. is it possible.

Hi.
Have problems connecting to SQL server with NT group authentication.
Get error 4064: Error connecting to user default database.
There's no problems connecting with NT users og SQL users.
SQL2000 + Windows2000 both running latest service packs. All SP have been reinstalled.
The server suddenly stopped accepting NT group logins. It have been running for 1 year with no problems - 4 days ago it started generating this error.
Any ideas anyone?
Please excuse me if this is basic SQL, however I'm new to SQL and how
it works.
I'm running SQL Server 2005 and have a number of databases. What I want
to do is control access to each database via an Active Directory group.
The group has been setup in AD and users added. I've then gone into SQL
Management Studio and gone to the Security folder under the server and
then Logins and added the group. Within that I've then added
permissions to a specific database. All good so far, however when you
try to login to the database I get a Login failed error message. In
contrast if I add individual users to the security, Logins on SQL
Manager I can get the DB to open with a username and password box for
the specific user.
What I would like to know is:
How can I control access to SQL Databases using Active Directory
Security Groups?
What setup is required on the SQL side to allow access to the databases
from users in the security groups, but still require them to login with
their windows authentication?
We have an existing SSRS server, and have just created a new child domain. We'll be migrating users from the parent to the child, and want to add the users of that new domain with access to SSRS. In the parent domain they are able to access, but after migration with the child domain account, they cannot.
I have added the group CHILDDomain Users with a system user role on SSRS, and PARENTDomain Users was already there.
Is there any additional step I should/could take to get this active?
Hi there,I have an Access front end application that uses a SQL Server 2000Desktop Edition backend. I have created a package with the Access2003 runtime that I'd now like to deploy. I have created a globalgroup in the domain and placed the users that I'd like to give accessto the database (via my application front end) in that group. I'vethen created a local group on the SQL Server machine and added myglobal SQL Server group to it. I've also added that local group asdatabase user from SQL Server. From my reading of the variousmaterial on the Internet this should work but it doesn't. I can'taccess the database via the application from any machine other than mydevelopment machine. My VBA code specifies integrated security forthe connection string.Help please! I'm so close to deploying this and now I'm bogged downin security. Any ideas anyone has would be appreciated. Accountadministration and Windows security is not my strong suit.Barb

Employees can be at multiple locations during the two weeks. They can work at one location, stop working there, start working somewhere else, and then maybe go back to their old location. There are duplicate records here as each employee can be at the same location multiple times during the two week period. What I need to capture is the actual start and end date of an employee at each location for each 'assignment'. An assignment is defined as a continual period of employment at a location with gaps of no less than 4 days - if there is a gap of more than four days then that is classed as a new assignment.
I am still fairly new to Sql Server 2008 R2 (express) , but am enjoying exploring it.
I have several databases up and running and now a large number of users in each.
But I notice whenever I write a stored procedure I have to go in and add each user to give them permission to exec it. When the user numbers are low its not a problem but I now have over 20 users on 1 database and its becoming tiresome.
I have heard of Active Directory on Windows Server but my database is installed on windows xp professional PC. Its running well and we don't have a budget to change it.
I've been searching the internet to see if there is some way I can create a group within sql server give the group all the necessary permissions/ privileges and then add the users to that group thereafter...
Hi all,
just want to confirm this:
We have a department and want to grant them access to various databases on a sql server 2000 instance. Can we create an AD group for these users and just add the group as a login to SQL Server? Or do we have to create a db user for each member of the group and map the logins one by one?
Thanks
hi alli've got two tables called "webusers" (id, name, fk_country) and "countries" (id, name)
at the meantime, i've a search-page where i can fill a form to search users. in the dropdown to select the country i included an option which is called "all countries".
now the problem is: how can i make a stored procedure that makes a restriction to the fk_country depending on the submitted fk_country parameter?it should be something like
SELECT * FROM webusers(if @fk_country > 0, which is the value for "all countries"){ WHERE fk_country = @fk_country}
who has an idea how to solve this problem?
I'm trying to do the following and haven't been able to figure it out.
Say there's a table with these records:
Col1 Col2 Col3
a b c
a b c
a b d
e f g

I want to generate a number that represents the groups of columns like this:
Col1 Col2 Col3 MyNumber
a b c 1
a b c 1
a b d 2
e f g 3
e f g 3
So that each grouping gets its own identifier. I've tried this:
SELECT Col1, Col2, Col3
row_number() OVER (PARTITION BY Col1, Col2, Col3
ORDER BY Col1, Col2, Col3) AS MyNumber
FROM MyTable
But I get this:
Col1 Col2 Col3 MyNumber
a b c 1
a b c 2
a b d 1
e f g 1
e f g 2

The MSDN doc makes it sound like after a failover of the primary, the CDC data won't "keep working" on the secondary unless you "To allow the logreader to proceed further and still have disaster recovery capacity, remove the original primary replica from the availability group using ALTER AVAILABITY GROUP <group_name> REMOVE REPLICA. Then add a new secondary replica to the availability group."
We have a few CDC tracked tables that we use and the general idea of AlwaysOn I thought was to minimize all the overhead and let things "just work" so your apps just connect and the listener re-routes everything where it needs to go.
It looks like to get this working properly an automated job /trigger would have to wait for a failover event and then kick off tasks to remove and re-add the replica and perhaps start up the CDC job on the secondary?
