Just lately I have noticed that I am periodically getting signed out of this forum. When I try and sign back in I get directed to an error page saying:
We apologize, but an unknown error has occured in the forums.
This error has been logged.
I would say this has been happening for a couple of weeks now at least.
Hi Guys, I have a website with multiple pages and when a user signs in it puts a 1 in the database and their online status is shown to the rest of the members, if they use my signout button which I have on each page, it signs them out and updates the database with a 0 in the process, so shows them as then offline, my problem is some people forget to sign out and just close the browser window or begin surfing elsewhere. Is there a way to have sql server 2000 automatically change the field in the database after 30 minutes of inactivity. Or is there a way to automatically sign users out as they either click on the X in the browser window, or as they leave my site. Any help would be appreciated. Cheers
ALTER TABLE [konnik].[PORTAL_CONFIG] ADD CONSTRAINT [DF_PORTAL_CONFIG_AUTOPM_ON] DEFAULT (1) FOR [AUTOPM_ON]
and i received the following warning
Warning: The table 'PORTAL_CONFIG' has been created but its maximum row size (12068) exceeds the maximum number of bytes per row (8060). INSERT or UPDATE of a row in this table will fail if the resulting row length exceeds 8060 bytes.
Bear in mind that this table come from Access through the Dts. Could anyone translate this for me? How can i overcome this???
i found one tutorial on self signing assemblies for use in sql server, but it appears to have errors. does anyone know of a better tutorial on this topic? the site im currently looking at is here: http://www.sqljunkies.com/WebLog/ktegels/articles/SigningSQLCLRAssemblies.aspx
I have come across a bit of problem with my Web Form. I have standard textbox which inserts a value into a SQL 2000 database. However if I put a pound sign anywhere inside the text box and do the insert it disappears when I try and reshow the value.
I have checked the database field to see if it has been inputted but its no where to be seen.
I have a SQL 7 db that I use a DTS package to import Oracle data into. The package works fine and imports all the appropriate data. However, if I use an Access 2000 database to attach to the data via ODBC (using the MS SQL Server driver), the negative sign is dropped when displaying data in a table, query, or report.
Same problem in SQL Server - if I query the SQL 7 data via the Query Analyzer, the negative signs are dropped. However, if I query the SQL data using the Enterprise Manager (i.e., Open Table...Return All Rows via right click on the table), the data shows up properly with the negative signs there. Bottom line - the data is correct, but doesn't get displayed correctly in QA or via ODBC.
What gives?! Can anyone explain to me the "connections" that occur between EM and QA? Looks like QA uses a "temporary" ODBC connection to talk to the data, while the EM connects "directly" to the data. Also, what gives with the MS SQL Server ODBC driver - why wouldn't it display the negative signs? Is there a better SQL Server ODBC driver that I should/could use? I've tried configuring the ODBC connection differently, but to no avail.
Any help is greatly appreciated, as the data in question is being used in court and absolutely HAS to be accurately displayed. Thanks! Jeff Jones Atlanta, GA
Does anyone know to include the Euro sign in SQL statements. I found an Ascii code of ALt+0128, but then I use CHAR (0128) it actually prints the Char (128) which is Ç not €. When I use the € directly in the code the application just shows a ?
I am trying to use this command to change the variable in where clause each time:
psexec servername -E cmd.EXE /c "sqlcmd -S servername /E -d dbname -v entertext="'%anything%'" -i c:myfoldermyscript.sql -o c:mypathoutput.sql" myscript.sql is like: select * from table_name where summary like $(entertext);
This command works just for variables with single and exact word. It does not work for variables which has space between them or when I enter part of summary.In fact, I wanted to write something which the user be able to enter variable each time when he/she run this batch file. because I put this sqlcmd command in batch file( like this in oracle: "select * from table_name where summary = &entertext; " I was looking the same command in sql server , but I did not find it). I do not know .net or any other programing language( I know just csh and command line). I want to do this just with sql command.
I have a query where I have to use the convert function to return the unitprice as a decimal with 2 digits to the right of the decimal and a $ to the left of the number like 10 should be $10.0o. How do i insert the $. this is my code so far:
SELECT CONVERT(varchar, UnitPrice, 1) AS varchartotal FROM dbo.[Order Details]
I'm trying to import a text file which contains dates and decimal values. My problem is that the date has the following format "YYYY-MM-DD" and the decimal sign for the values are "." (dot).
If I change the "Locale" for the file source so it will handle the "." signs in the values then the dates are invalid, and if I have it so the dates are handled then the "."s aren't seen as decimals.
In Crystal Reports, there was a "reverse sign for display" property that could be checked for a number box. This was used for debits and credits (and such) so a negative number would be displayed as a positive and a positive displayed as a negative.
How would this work, or is there something simple, in Reporting Services?
I did all the step mentioned in this MSFT article http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms137947.aspx Yet I can not sign a package using a certificate.
To sign a package
In Business Intelligence Development Studio, open the Integration Services project that contains the package you want to work with.
In Solution Explorer, double-click the package to open it.
In SSIS Designer, on the SSIS menu, click Digital Signing.
In the Digital Signing dialog box, click Sign.
The Select Certificate dialog box, select a certificate.
Optionally, click View Certificate to view certificate information.
Click OK to close the Select a Certificate dialog box.
Click OK to close the Digital Signing dialog box.
To save the updated package, click Save Selected Items on the File menu.
I don't see a certificate to select after following the article's steps. Can some one please shed some light on this?
How can I remove the - after an import into a database. I want to be able to convert all negative numbers to positive, once the data has been imported into the table
I have imported a table from Oracle to SQL server using the tool in enterprise manager.
Some of the columns were numeric and had negative values.
In Query analyzer these numbers show up as positive. But when i add a where clause and only ask for the values < 0 the same numbers show up bit still without a negative sign.
Does anyone have an explanation for this? (could have found some help if the search function was working....)
I have a SSAS 2012 Tabular Cube and I am now stuck with a problem concerning something recursive in DAX.Basically I am looking for number of zones jump, provided the sign of the numbers are reverse.E.g. in the figure below. Number of zones jump for the figure -47,067 is 1, since there is a positive value in zone 2. If the Figure in Zone2 had been 0 or a negative number and Zone 3 had the same (i.e. 0 or a negative number) and Zone 4 had a positive number, the number of Zones jump would be 3. Is this something that could be done in DAX?Â
Hi I€™m having trouble again with a matrix report. I wish to make a matrix report with 5 columns. The right part of course will be filled depending on how many moths the user has chosen. The left part will be field with country, city and then the person names and some other info.
What I want to do is to have the first 2 columns, country and city, with drilldown. That is pushing the plus sign to open the corresponding group. How do I do this?
Our company plans to redesign the forum. we currently stores all posts in text files. someone suggest that we can use xml. I am not familiar with using xml. Is XML better for the forum design and data retriving?
Can anyone tell me , For instance : if someone has posted new post and If I want to answer to that post, how can I answer that. Or How do I know that there is some new post which people can response to it, please give me your feed back on this
Where is the list for forums, When i started to write for Sqlserver, i never searched or looked for forum. Same did when i was working with the c#. Now I have to find the correct forum. So where is the list of those forums, thanks.
I have had countless email alerts thru today alerting me to people replying to threads I have commented on. And I can see the person's comments.
1) WhenI click on the link it takes me to a page saying the post doesn't exist
2) When I try and browse to the thread manually I can't see the reply.
3) On one occasion I replied to one of these threads asking if someone had posted something and then deleted it. After I submitted the post I could see all the other posts in the thread which were supposedly missing before. The next time I browse to the thread (in a new browser window) I can't see any of the posts.
BROKEN!!!! I for one won't be coming back here until they fix it. Its pathetic.
I have posted something on the bug report forum by the way.
Our website provide users with a forum where they can enter messages. So, typically, a user would enter a message, click submit, and their message would be displayed on the forum.
The db that stores these msgs uses a varchar field. Now, we're adding a facility to convert any urls that are entered to links by adding 'a href' tags, so that when users see messages with urls, those urls appear as links, and they can click on them. The problem is that if a user enters a message of 8K chars, then we add 'a href' tags to any urls they have, that makes the message length > 8K, preventing us from storing it in our db. (Please note that we do need to add HTML tags for other reasons as well, not just to convert urls to links.)
We thought about adding 'a href' tags during pre-render, thus avoiding storing html in the db, but found that doing such string manipulations, while a user is waiting to see their post displayed on the forum, was expensive. Timing tests revealed that the time to render such pages more than doubled.
I have solved such problems previously by adding an extra field in the db to store any overflow data, that is, data that appears after the first 8K chars.
However, I learnt of sql server 2005's varchar(max) datatype, and 'am wondering if the best way to solve this problem would be to replace the varchar field with varchar(max).
hi and thanks for your help. Is there such a code that return whether or not a field is either positive or negative. If I have a field that contain numeric value. lets say -500 can I run a code that check the sign ?
I am trying to select specific columns from multiple tables based on acommon identifier found in each table.For example, the three tables:PUBACC_ACPUBACC_AMPUBACC_ANeach have a common column:PUBACC_AC.unique_system_identifierPUBACC_AM.unique_system_identifierPUBACC_AN.unique_system_identifierWhat I am trying to select, for example:PUBACC_AC.namePUBACC_AM.phone_numberPUBACC_AN.zipwhere the TABLE.unique_system_identifier is common.For example:----------------------------------------------PUBACC_AC=========unique_system_identifier name1234 JONES----------------------------------------------PUBACC_AM=========unique_system_identifier phone_number1234 555-1212----------------------------------------------PUBACC_AN=========unique_system_identifier zip1234 90210When I run my query, I would like to see the following returned as oneblob, rather than the separate tables:-------------------------------------------------------------------unique_system_identifier name phone_number zip1234 JONES 555-1212 90210-------------------------------------------------------------------I think this is an OUTER JOIN? I see examples on the net using a plussign, with mention of Oracle. I'm not running Oracle...I am usingMicrosoft SQL Server 2000.Help, please?P. S. Will this work with several tables? I actually have about 15tables in this mess, but I tried to keep it simple (!??!) for the aboveexample.Thanks in advance for your help!NOTE: TO REPLY VIA E-MAIL, PLEASE REMOVE THE "DELETE_THIS" FROM MY E-MAILADDRESS.Who actually BUYS the cr@p that the spammers advertise, anyhow???!!!(Rhetorical question only.)
