I have installed Sql Server 7 Desktop edition on Windows 98SE.I created a application with vb6 and sql server 7.I have created a database sachin.Size of database has grown to 9mb.
While i was trying to restore database sachin through enterprise manager from a backup and cancelled the operation,database was marked as loading.(sachin(loading)).In panic I copied mdf and ldf files of sachin database to other directories and pasted them and delete sachin database.
I tried to attach the database sachin by using sp_attach_db 'sachin','c:datasachin_data.mdf','c"datasachin_log.ldf' operation ended with following error notes
server:msg 9004,level 21,state 1,line 1 The log for database 'sachin' is corrupt. connection broken
i am vb programmer,i will lose my job if i could not recover the data.
Is it just me and the strange web browser I use (IE 4.01 SP 1 on NT) or is it impossible to download any of the scripts in the script library on SWYNK?
There are some really useful sounding utilities on there, if I didn't get 'downloaded file not available' whenever I tried to access them.
There is something in a SWYNK article I do not understand. There is a demo of a DTS import to manage many files in a directory. I do not understand what they mean by this line:
"Load both packages and save as Server packages "
How do you do this? I see a couple of files that came with the ZIP package
DTSDirDemo-Import.dts DTSDirDemo-Loop.dts
I assume these are the ones you load and save as ...
1. How can I Put all the Q documents from Microsoft that are related to SQL server? So that I can search fast.
2. How can I search SWYNK for all the ANSWERS that MAK/CRAIG/RAY replied to the threads. Its so weird that I answered someone and now I forgot the answer what I posted. Now I am having the same problem. I cant search.
3. I wanna put all SWYNK's Questions responses in one database say SQLSERVER, so that I can search all the threads.
How can I copy a SQL 7 database from one server to another? Please tell me all the ways because I've tried the obvious and it doesn't work. (backup and restore - won't go from one server to another, DTS transfer object Wizard - does a whole pile of errors and doesn't do stored proceedures and trigures). Thanks for help in advance. Also, what is the email address to post to the listserv and where is the FAQ for SQL7? Most of my listserv's tell you where to post right at the bottom of the digest I get - any chance you guys would do that with this list? Thanks again.
After installing SP2 we encounter a problem with MMC. When selecting a DB we recieve a RunTime error? And the DB items/properties are not shown. Is there anyone with the same problem and knows how to fix this? I search the MS site for more information but there is nothing on it.
I am going to install SQL7.0 on the current NT4.0 with SQL6.5 on it by uninstalling SQL6.5 first and then installing (not upgrading through Wizard) SQL7.0.
Here are the questions I need help with: 1. Should I convert the database after the installation of SQL7.0 or directly restore the SQL6.5 databases backup? 2. If I need to convert the databases, How and in what way? 3. Which way is better upgrade or installation?

I have to get data from AS/400 to SQL7. I've created a package with a client acces odbc driver and an sql driver which transfers the data of an entire table. When i execute this it works fine.
Now i want to shedule this (shedule package). When i start this job it doesn't work.
This is the error i get:
DTSRun: Loading... DTSRun: Executing... DTSRun OnStart: DTSStep_DTSDataPumpTask_1 DTSRun OnError: DTSStep_DTSDataPumpTask_1, Error = -2147008507 (80074005) Error string: Unspecified error Error source: Microsoft Data Transformation Services (DTS) Package Help file: sqldts.hlp Help context: 1100 Error Detail Records: Error: -2147008507 (80074005); Provider Error: 0 (0) Error string: Unspecified error Error source: Microsoft Data Transformation Services (DTS) Package Help file: sqldts.hlp Help context: 1100 Error: -2147467259 (80004005); Provider Error: 5 (5) Error string: [IBM][Client Access ODBC Driver (32-bit)][DB2/400 SQL]Communication link failure. COMM RC=0x5 Error source: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers Help file: Help context: 0 DTSRun OnFinish: DTSStep_DTSDataPumpTask_1 DTSRun: Package execution complete. Process Exit Code 1. The step failed.
on the server i've installed client access as well and created the same odbc driver (with the same name). But it still doesn't work.
I have a database on a 6.5 server but wish to upgrade this database to a sql 7 database. But I would like to test this first on another server which is a sql 7 server. Is it possible to restore a 6.5 backup to a SQL server 7.0 server?
Is there a way to list all the tables in each of the filegroup in a database. I have a database with 7 filegroups and would like to have a list of tables in each filegroup Sp_helpfilegroup gives you list of filegroups and the names of files
I recall seeing something about an extra / additional / enhanced / second version of Help that is available after installing SQL7 SP2. Does anyone know anything about it, such as where to find it? Thanks.
I need some documentation on how to trouble shoot clustering SQL7EE. I have setup the cluster and looks like it is working but I missed somthing. When I test a failover by pulling the Network cable to the main network not the heartbeat network both boxes lock up. I can failover by powering down one box and using the MSCluster Admin. I am using NT40 6a on Dell PowerEdge 2400 and PowerValut 211s
Hi folks. Got a real doozy going. One of the network techs reinstalled NT4 SP5 on a server. This reverted the SQL driver back to 2.something. Now sqlserveragent jobs will not run. I have tried to instal MDAC 2.5, but it doesn't change the driver up to the new 3.xxx driver. I searched around on here and folks said that you have to move the MDAC executable to a new directory. for the new MDAC I don't see MDAC.EXE. I did find MDAC.COM and renamed that. Tried to rerun MDAC 2.5 but still got the old SQLSRV32.Dll. Uninstalled SQLServer and reinstalled. still got the old SQLSRV32.Dll. Tried to apply SQLServer SP1. It died. Found that I am to shutdown some services. Did that. SP1 still dies. Tried to apply SQLSERVER SP2. It tries to pick up where it died and it dies again. SO, I'm currently uninstalling SQLServer, reboot, installing SQLServer, reboot, Trying SP2 again. Didn't think that it was brain surgery just to install a new flippin version of the ODBC driver.. SHEEZ!!!!
I am using ASPs in my VB6 script to call an SQL 7 database. What security issues shd be considered? How will the IIS security be handled with NT4 & SQL7 security? Any suggestions wld be highly appreciated! Thanks in advance! Adie
Starting with Win2k you are not suppossed to have to install MDAC, as it comes with the OS. What about when I install SQL7 and it automatically installs MDAC. Do I have to reinstall MDAC in this case?
This is a very confusing question. Let me start: I need to know can I use Japanese characters in SJIS format with American SQL 7 on Win2K. I must be able to integrate a Japanese language database and an English language database on one platform. Since most people working on this project are bilingual, it would be OK to get Win2K Japanese. But I am not sure how to get SQL Japanese in the states, where I am working now.
I need to backup my sql7 through the network share. I have two servers both have SQL7 and only one has a backup tape drive (which is my production database). I want to be able to backup to the tape and to the a share drive on the second server. The backup to the tape work fine but if I want to backup to share drive locate to the second server I can't see the share where I want to put the backup. Do you Know what I am doing wrong ?

Is there any way in which I can move an objects/ data to another filegroup using transact sql? I have created a table such that the data is on a secondary filegroup. But the table has image and text data and this data is going to the PRIMARY filegroup. I tried chnging the filegroup for the text data but this property but does not change(I did it through EM). As a result, the disk which contains the primary filegroup is getting filled up. I have configured my database such that the primary file group is on one disk and the secondary on another and the log on the same disk as the primary filegroup. I have given lesser space to the primary file group and more space to the secondary filegroup. help on this is greatly appreciated because my system is rapidly growing with respect to data.
Has anybody had any problems with mmc crashing when running Enterprise Manager on SQL Server 7.0/SP1? This occurs on a fairly regular basis on several of our development NT client machines (NT SP4 and SP5). We are running Version 1.1 of mmc. Is there a later version (or service pack) we need to be using?
I am attempting to connect to sql7 using isql_w and integrated security. No go. If I try to connect using standard security, all goes well. I am using tpc/ip, but if I switch to multiprotocal with integrated security, it works. Why won't integrated security work with tcp/ip?
We use the stored procedures to help us produce mail merges in word via MS Query. This set up worked well for our 6.5 databases, since our change to 7 however MS Query no longer wants to talk through ODBC to our upgraded server. MS Query crashes with an invalid page fault just after the login prompt for the odbc connection. Any ideas??
I am stepping in as our SQL 7 DBA for a platform were 7 was installed prior to my arrival. As a company, we have all versions of 7 licensed - how do I know if Standard or Enterprise version was installed on this server?
If Standard was installed - how nasty is it going to be to upgrade to Enterprise?
I'm evaluating SQL 7.0 on a Win95 machine. I have a dump file of my 6.5 databases which I would like to port to my 7.0 machine, unfortunately when I tried to run the restore command on SQL 7.0's EM, I got an error saying that the directory which I am restoring from is already existing.
Is there a workaround to directly restore my 6.5 dump to 7.0?
We had implemented a customized locking mechanism on our apps in SQL.6.5 which worked fine. But, we couldnt implement row-level locking, and hence had some performance problems. Can someone suggest how I can implement the row-level locking in SQL.7.0? Should I go for cutomised set-up again, or should I leave to the SQL server to take care of locking ? How has the experience been with other users?
