hi!
I am able to run the package successfuly in test database. but not in production database. It throughs up error saying

We're using SQL Server 2000 as back end in our web project. The problem is we've 3 different copies of same database - one each for Development, Test and Production sitting in 2 different machines.
My question is - is there any tool for comparing the objects (tables, stored procedures, etc) ?
Is there any tool available to migrate the data from the SQL Server test database to SQL Server production database. Data Migration should be based on a condition which can be given as an input for a table by the user. The dependant tables also should be migrated based on the condition. i.e data subsetting based on the matching conditions.
Ex : Salary > 2000
The rows of the table which matches the condition alone need to be migrated for the corresponding table. Also its dependant table's rows should be migrated based on the given condition. Please help me with a tool which can automate this.
I am attempting to create a Test db from a full backup of the production db. With 2012, I cannot do it the the way i had done it in previous versions (and now i understand why because of Logical names).
The Test db runs in the same instance as Prod db.
I attempted to run this but come up with errors. This is what i executed:
RESTORE DATABASE TEST FROM DISK = 'E:<path>FULL.BAK' WITH REPLACE, RECOVERY, MOVE 'PROD' TO 'E:<path>TEST.MDF';
The errors are all cannot execute due to PROD is in use.

We are setting up a test lab environment with 100 machines. Â We want one master testing db that gets replicated to each to run scripted application tests nightly. Â
My goal is to minimize the amount of work to move this thing to each of the 100 test machines. Â I am wondering if we need to even have the sql local and invest in a monster db server with 100 copies of the db we restore and each test machine point to their own db on that server, or if I should use db mirroring or something to get the master test db to each of those machines instead.
Hi all, I have a asp .net 1.1 application running on the intranet which uses SQL Server 2000. The application is in production and everytime I want to do some changes, i do the changes on my development machine then I copy the application dll on the server. The problem is that I'm using Stored Procedures for all my Select, Insert and Delete statements. These stored procedures are live on the server so I can't do the modifications locally and test them then copy to the server.
How can I do modifications without affecting the production server and the users ??? thanks.
Sould one has a seperated environment for production and test system? How do you do it on a same server? Install two instance? How do you seperate test DBs from the production DBs? Please advise...Thank you
I have just finished upsizing an Access database to SQL Server 2k. Now the SQL Server need to be run on a test basis to determine if i need to make more changes to the front-end (Access). The problem I am facing is how to keep the two databases in sync while I am testing. Any suggestions?
Also any suggestion or comments on how to run a test setup like this (in parrallel) are also welcome since this is my first time attempting a project like this.
Is it possible to execute a stored procedure in one database, which thenitself executes a stored procedure from another database? We have decide tosplit our data into a tree structure (DB1) and data blobs (DB2) (we areusing MSDE and we have a 2gb limit with each DB so we've done it this wayfor that reason). I would like to, say, execute a stored procedure in DB1,passing in the data blob and other details, DB1 will create a tree node inDB1 and then add the blob record to DB2. DB1 will wrap in a transaction ofcourse, as will DB2 when it adds the blob. Is this possible?
There is a production database which has ever increasing data. For testing purposes though, I would like to build a test database with exactly the same schema but only a subset of data copied from the production database . I'll specify the criteria (something like a where clause in select query) for copying the data from the production database.
Is there a tool that anyone has come across to do this job ?
hi every one, i need to test SSIS pacakge which will import data from different database where record count is around 5 millions. iam planning to test it through c# code as well as manually also. SSIS source : consist of 7 tables SSIS destination :consist of 7 tables Using c# code iam trying to run ssis package through batch file. i am putting expected rowcount, column count in an excel file and comparing same with destination tables by writing query implementing ADO.Net concept. am i going right way ,can any one suggest best and productive way to test the ssis package . what are the other things i need to test it. do any one can add test cases to it.
S.No
Test Case
1
Verify all the tables have been imported.
2
Verify all the rows in each table have been imported.
3
Verify all the columns specified in source query for each table have been imported
4
Verify all the data has been received without any truncation for each column.
5
Verify the schema at source and destination
6
Verify the time taken /speed for data transfer
7
Fields truncated due to difference in length of the field at destination. Regards Arif shareef
I am debugging one of our programs and ran the fix in Test. I would liketo compare table 1 between Production and Test. I want the query to outputcolumn 1 if Production <> Test output.What is the best way to achieve this?jeff--Message posted via http://www.sqlmonster.com
We will be implementing our first SQL cluster in December. Our current plan calls for a shared development/test database server with one physical server, but two SQL Server instances. Our production environment will be a SQL cluster. Is it necessary to create a clustered test environment for testing patches, hot-fixes, etc...?
How do I change application code to easily switch between the application working against a test database versus working with a production database?
My thought is to change the connection string to work with a test DB, and when ready to Publish, change the connection string back to the production DB. After Publish is successful, change the connection string back to the test DB.
At first, it appears it will work. Will it? Whether it will or won't?
I have created a rule in outlook to run this Visual Basic Script when I receive a specific email. The codes runs a SQL Server DTS Package that imports data and runs a couple of stored procs. If the DTS package takes a while to execute my outlook will lock up until the entire package is complete. I want to run the DTS package to run but I don’t want the application to remain locked till its complete. Anyone have any ideas of how to get around this....

I am trying to understand how to predict what user context a package will execute under, more specifically when it comes to operating system access.
For example we have a package that creates a flat file, during developement it was simply created on the C: drive of the users pc.
Now it must create the files on a remote server.
How do permissions to folders work is this case?
When you execute it in BIDS debug does it use the window account you logged onto the server as to connect to the remote folder ?
If so what happens when deployed to sql server and scheduled in a job? Does it use the domain account that the sql server agent account runs under ? Or will it use the credentials of the proxy account?
I am unclear in this scenario ? Obviously we need to grant the correct permissions on the remote server shared folder to the correct user, but i am not sure under what user account the package will be trying to create files on the remote server as ?
In a nutshell i need clarity on what user a package is executed as when running in a sql job ?
Anyone have a good link or the time to clarify this for me please.
Hello I have a production database that i need to refresh to our test environment daily. The database size is 700 MB. I do not need to transfer the stored procedures and triggers , users and logins. Would a DTS package that runs every night be the best and the easiest solution to implement or should i look into log shipping and snapshot replication.
Setting up Transaction Replication in test environment. I am willing to bet that most of you take a production backup (if so, how, and using what?), restoring the database to your test environment, then running a snapshot to your subscriber and away you go.
But perhaps you take a backup of your publisher and subscriber, if so, how do you know there are no inconsistences because there were transactions sitting on the distributor?
What do you do if you have additional indexes on the subscriber for reporting, that are not on the publisher?
Here at work we are having issues with getting consistent databases set up with T Rep, missing rows, duplicate keys at subscriber etc. How to avoid these issues.
I have a SSIS package that contains a DTS 2000 package in it. The DTS 2000 package imports data into several tables from an ODBC data source. When I execute the package through BIDS, no problems. Everything works great. I am now trying to execute the SSIS package in my stored procedure & it gives me the following error: Error: 2007-01-30 11:54:24.06 Code: 0x00000000 Source: Populate IncrTables Description: System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException (0x80040427): Execution was canceled by user. at DTS.PackageClass.Execute() at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Tasks.Exec80PackageTask.Exec80PackageTask.ExecuteThread() End Error
I did a search for this & found KB 904796. It had the exact error message but I don't believe my packages uses 2000 metadata services. Just to be safe, I reinstalled the backward compatibility features & the DTS 2000 tools on the server. That still did not fix anything. I found another forum that suggested loading the DTS 2000 package internally, which I did & it did not fix anything. I am using a password for the protection level so that is not causing my issue. Does anyone else have any suggestions as to what I might be able to try?

We are setting up a new Reporting Services 2005 enterprise reporting tier that will support multiple developers, applications, and end users. We will have mirrored environments including development, test, and production each with their own database cluster, and reporting server.
We have multiple report developers who share a single Visual Studio solution which is saved in SourceSafe and is setup to have separate report projects for each business unit in the orgainzation. Each report project is mapped to a specific deployment folder matching the business unit. Using the Visual Studio Configuration Manager, we can simply flip to the envirnoment we want to deploy to and the reports are published to the correct environment and folder structure.
My problem lies with the common data sources. We are using a single master Common Data Sources folder to hold all of the data sources. The trick is that each and every reporting folder seems to have to have it's own copy of the data source in visual studio. There does not seem to be an easy way to change the data sources for the reports when you publish to various environment, i.e. development, test, production etc.
Ideally, we would have a single project for the common data sources that all reporting projects and associated folders would map to, and we would have a way to associate the appropriate data source for each environment when we deploy.
I'm looling for best practices on how to setup data sources for development and deployment in an enterprise environment that uses Visual Studio to develop and publish reports. We have 3 environments, and 6 data sources per environment and about 20 reporting folder / project in Visual Studio. That's 360 changes that have to be manged when deploying reports. Is there a best practices way to do this?
There has got to be a better way? Can anyone give me some insite into how to set this up?
Hello faculties,We've a production database that is being used by one of our clientsas a backend for his website.

We often have to migrate changes to sql server 2000 databases fromdevelopment to production. Normally we dump the sql from Enterprise Managerfor production and development and do a diff (using CSDiff - downloadable forfree).From the diff information we create some scripts to add new tables or alterexisting tables as required. This is time consuming and error-prone.I am now trying the following:1. Backup up the Development database2. Delete the Development database3. Restore the Development database as Development_Backup3. Use the the sql script to create the new Development databasestructure from scratch4. Use Data Transformation Services to migrate the data fromDevelopment_BackupThe problem is that many of the 'sys' tables are empty. For example table'sysforeignkeys' is empty.Is there an easy way to rebuild the data in the 'sys' tables?Thanks
We are installing an application with MSSQL database at our users place.Now we have two instances of the same database:- developing database, on which we are working at- production database, which is at our user's place.That 2 databases would have to be syncronised.Users will of course enter some data into production database. How can wechange the production database do reflect changes we have made on thedeveloping database?D.--
Hello all-I need to check to see if the database is running before I begin all sorts of processing and figured I would do something like this. Any better ways to do this? I want to check to see if the db is up and running and also check to make sure I can connect to it. Private Function DatabaseRunning() As Boolean 'Checks to see if the database is up and running.Dim objDataConnection As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection(ConnectionString) Try objDataConnection.Open()Catch ex As Exception Return False End Try objDataConnection.Close() Return True End Function
Hi everybody Have you ever noticed that you can create database with strange and unusual name with Enterprise manager but not with Query Analizer and through T-SQL code!!?
for example try to create database with name &%Test$ it will be created as i said earlier throgh Database Wizard in Enterprise manager but if you Execute :
Create Database &%Test$
you will receive the following error: Server: Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Line 1 Line 1: Incorrect syntax near '&'.
I need to create a test database on the live server for performance testing.From time to time, as structural modifications are made to the livedatabase, I'd like to be able to delete the test database and replace itwith a new copy of the live database. Is there a simple way to do this witha script or other? Thanks!
