HI,
I have a need where SQL Server should prompt me for a value when I run a Select statement.
Eg:
If I need the name of an employee by id number, SQL server should prompt me to enter a value for the ID when I run the statement like:
SELECT name FROM employee WHERE id=[Enter ID]
In oracle, it is possible by using "&" operator but I am not sure how it can be done in SQL Server. Is there any other way to get the prompts if not by the above method.
I have created linked servers and successfully run the following stored procedure.
exec [db-2001server].sales..sp_test
Can anyone give me the exact syntax for running the same from command promt(without using the query analyzer).I am new to isql/osql.So,please help me with the syntax. Thanks!!
I need to verify a csv file exists before I call a stored procedure to complete a bulk insert. The first step in the SP will be to verify the file exists (that particular "Job" step did not fail). I have only one step in the job that I have set the type as "Operating System (CmdExec)" and the Command is "Dir C:NAFCDMDataShipmentsCooperShipments.csv". When I execute the job manually to verify the proper operation I receive the error listed below. I know the path and file name are correct as I originally typed in the UNC, when it failed I copied it from the Address bar. I attempted to move the file to the root location without success. I attempted to use another file. I have attempted to rename the file. The DBAs will not allow me to use the SP_cmdshell stored procedure (that was my first thought).
I added 'Everyone' with Full Access to the root folder and propagated these permissions to all containing folders. This again did not allow the job to run. I changed the statment to "REN C:NAFCDMShipmentsShipment.csv Shipment1.csv". I continue to get the same error. Can someone Please point me in a direction to fix this problem?
"The process could not be created for step 1 of job 0x71D51027F920A140A2913234DB7FF509
(reason: The system cannot find the file specified). The step failed.
The job failed. The Job was invoked by User sa. The last step to run was step 1 (Verify the File's Existance)."
before this, i used sql 2005 express to create .sql file to learn sql and it's perfectly fine since the connect to server prompt offers me a default server to connect to but when i use sql server 2005 there is no server for me to connect to. My question is how to create a server to connect to.

How can I login to SQL Server Express instance(localhostSqlExpress) using command prompt so that I can query database. Is there any alternative GUI tool for SQL Server Express Manager? (I think Microsoft has discontinued SQL Server Express Manager). I prefer using Command Prompt. I am using WindowsXP Professional.
I want to install the SQL Server Express Edition silently at command prompt (but want the dialog boxes, I mean with /qb option), locally, with no network options.
I want to install it with following options
i) In the Feature Selection, I need a) Data file (Database Services) b) Shared tools (Database Services) c) Connectivity Components (Client Components) d) Management Studio Express (Client Components) ii) Instance name as €œDefault Instance€? iii) Service Account as €œUse Built-in service accountà Local System€? iv) Authentication Mode as €œMix mode€? with sa password as €˜sysadm€™ v) Collate Settings as €œLatin1_General_CS_AI
SQL Server 2012 Replication. The command prompt instance of the replication is being run as the same user as the SSMS "version" using the runas option. With SSMS the error is that the client is missing a privilege. There is no error when it runs from the command prompt. All runs well.
We have reinstalled the replication feature.We have gone through several MSDN articles that indicate exactly what privileges (both within the DB and in Windows) that service account should have. None have worked Incidentally, when I create a new publication and indicate that the SQL Server Agent be used , the publication runs.
We are using Microsoft Reporting Service 2005 to develop reports and we are accessing these reports through a J2EE application. The front end is implemented using Tapestry and we using JBoss as our applicaiton server. We are using Shared Data Sources for the reports and we set its data source type to SQL Server Analysis Services. In the credential tab, by default "Use Windows authentication" is selected. All other options are disabled.
When I access my reportserver through my web application, I am always prompted for a windows login and password. How can I avoid being shown the windows login prompt, since our web application will be used by several users and we do not want the users to type in a username/password everytime they want to access our reports.
I just started using SQL 2005 and having a bit of struggle.
I'm having difficulty trying to use the .ini file to install sql express. This is the command I use in Command Prompt: start /wait expresssetup.exe /settings setup.ini /qn echo %errorlevel%
Then I get an error level of €˜-204€™, which I couldn€™t find the meaning on the internet or anywhere else.
But when I move the parameters from the .ini file to the batch file and the process worked. SQL started installing, until it comes to the SQL Server Database Services component. Then I get the following error message:
SQL Server Setup could not validate the service accounts. Either the service accounts have not been provided for all of the services being installed, or the specified username or password is incorrect. For each service, specify a valid username, password, and domain, or specify a built-in system account.
I am trying to install SQL Server 2005 using command prompt. I have gotten the latest download. My question is what is the commad prompt for the tag ADDLOCAL for SQL Server Management Studio Express. For SQL Server datatbase it is called SQL_Engine. In the same way what should I be using for "SQL Server Management Studio Express". I want to limit the choices that are installed on the user machines.
I would be very grateful if someone could take a look at my command line install and offer advice on if I am doing it correctly.
The reason I am asking is because I cannot seem to get the server installed without having errors during the installation: "The SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) service terminated with service-specific error 17113 (0x42D9)"
Looking at the server error log indicates that master.mdf was not in the data directory (I have however specified a different data directory for ease of backup by our software and this is created during the install but does not have this database in the data directory - it is however in the template data directory!
I also get this error when the SQL Server service is started: "The SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) service terminated with service-specific error 3417 (0xD59)."
All advice is welcome. Please see below my batch file. Also, if you think I should do this in a different way then please let me know. I basically want to install SQL server on a customer computer and automate the install so the custoemr does not need to enter any information.
The goal of this install is: [1] Deply a custom .Net application and SQL server at the same time on the same computer without user input. [2] Allow remote .Net applications (designed by myself also) to connect over a LAN (and later maybe over a WAN) to the database to the above database.
The command line is this (I have also included the batch file I am usign below). For ease of reading I have put the parameters on a new line below:
SET MODE=/qb SET SETUP_EXE=sqlfilessetup.exe %MODE% SET SQLDATADIR=c:SqlData
SET SET_USERNAME=username="CustomerUsername" SET SET_COMPANYNAME=companyname="OurCompany" SET SET_ADDLOCAL=addlocal="SQL_Engine,SQL_Data_Files,SQL_Replication,Connectivity,SDK" SET SET_DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=disablenetworkprotocols="0" SET SET_INSTANCENAME=instancename="MSSQLSERVER"
SET SET_INSTALLSQLDATADIR=INSTALLSQLDATADIR="%SQLDATADIR%"
SET SET_SAVESYSDB=SAVESYSDB="1" SET SET_USESYSDB=USESYSDB="%SQLDATADIR%"
SET SET_SQLAUTOSTART=SQLAUTOSTART="1" SET SET_SECURITYMODE=SECURITYMODE="SQL"
@REM === RE-INSTALL PARAMS - NOT CURRENTLY BEING USED?? SHOULD I ADD THESE ALSO? === SET SET_REINSTALLMODE=REINSTALLMODE="omus" SET SET_REINSTALL=REINSTALL="SQL_Engine,SQL_Data_Files,SQL_Replication,Connectivity,SDK" SET SET_REBUILDDATABASE=REBUILDDATABASE="1"
I have an SSIS package that runs fine through command pormpt although when I try to run it from a SQL Servr Agent Job CmdExec step it bombs out. Please help this has me stumped...the SSIS package uses an XML connection string so certain key settings such as connection strings and email info can be changed easily. Currently this is all on the same machine. I have not moved it beyond where I am developing.
On the command line I am using the following command...

When I try to use the same command within SQL Server Agent Job using a CmdExec step I get the following error...

The program shortcut "Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt" seems to be mising from the "Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt" Start menu added by the current Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Toolkit. Where is it? How to workaround?
I am trying to do Download details SQL Server 2005 Samples and Sample Databases (April 2006) -> GettingStartedWithSQLSamples.htm which says "a. Open a Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 command prompt. Click Start, point to All Programs, point to Microsoft Visual Studio 2005, point to Visual Studio Tools, and then click Visual Studio 2005 Command Prompt." but I can find no such command prompt within "Visual Studio Tools", only "Visual Studio 2005 Remote Debugger{, Configuration Wizard}".
What's wrong? How to fix or workaround? I'd install .NET SDK 2.0 to get it's Command Prompt but that's about 570MB merely for a command prompt!
I've seen some similar posts to this one, however none with an answer and I'm wondering if anyone has actually figured out what causes this issue. I'm running SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services.
I'm attempting to implement a folder structure for the report server, therefore am creating individual solutions in Visual Studio for each folder. At the top level i.e http://servername/reportserver/ I am able to deploy reports no problem.
However creating a folder at the next level in the tree and then deploying to that level such as http://servername/reportserver/ManagementReports causes a Reporting Services Login prompt to appear. No matter what user credentials I enter they are not accepted. I have full administrator rights the server, the site and the folders in question.
Has anyone else experienced this? Does anyone have any suggestions?

We have SQL Server6.5. Can some one assist me in coding this problem. Thanks for your time. Roja96@hotmail.com
I have a Microsoft SQL server that is setup, and inside it is a job. Inside the job is a bunch of lines of transact sql statements.
I would like to be able to start the job from the command prompt. Moreover, I do not want to have to create new files or modify anything that is existing. I just want to be able to have it set up so that a new user who installs the server and all of the job on their machine fresh, can just punch in the command to run the job.
I know I can copy the transact sql statements from the job, and run them through the command prompt, but that would be a poor way to do it, because if the statements in the job were ever modified, with this task being automated, the command prompt statements would be out of date.
So I just need a way to start the existing job from the command prompt. Is this possible? Maybe with OSQL?
