We are having a problem with Query Analyzer not connecting to SQL Server anymore. Sometimes it will, sometimes it won't. Sometimes when it does, then you click on the databases drop-down, it may take a long time to return. Likewise, it may take a long time to open the object browser, or it may open without the database info but with just the "Common Objects" info.
All of this used to work just fine.
HELP
Hi,
I apologize for the long post but I am trying to give as much information as I can about the steps I've taken to troubleshoot this.
We have a stored procedure that builds a sql statement and executes it using the Execute command. When I execute the stored procedure through query analyzer it takes close to 5 seconds to execute. When I print out the exact same statement and execute it directly in query analyzer as "raw sql", it takes 0.5 seconds - meaning it takes 10 times longer for the code to execute in the stored proc. I altered the stored proc to execute the printed sql instead of building but it still takes the full 5 seconds and there were no changes in the execution plan. This makes me confident that the issue is not caused by the dynamic sql. I've used with recompile to make sure that the stored procedure caches the most recent execution plan. When I compare the execution plans, the stored proc uses a nested loop whereas the raw sql statement uses a hash join. Seeing that, I added the hash hint to the stored proc and doing so brought down the execution time down from 5 secs to 2 secs but still the raw sql statement uses a clustered index whereas the stored proc uses a non-clustered index and that makes the statement 4 times slower. This proves how efficient clustered indexes are over non-clustered ones, but it doesn't help me since, as far as I know, I can't force SQL Server to use the clustered index.
Does anyone know why sql server is generating such an inefficient execution plan for the stored proc compared to the execution plan that it generates when executing the raw sql statement? The only thing I can think of is that some stats are not updated and that somehow throws off the stored proc. But then again, shouldn't it affect the raw sql statement?
Thank you,
Michael Tzoanos
I have an ADO.NET (.NET 2.0) application that throws a connection exception when trying to connect to a SQL 2000 Standard server (despite what the message says about 2k5, which I assume is generic):
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlInternalConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection) at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.ThrowExceptionAndWarning(TdsParserStateObject stateObj) at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.Connect(Boolean& useFailoverPartner, Boolean& failoverDemandDone, String host, String failoverPartner, String protocol, SqlInternalConnectionTds connHandler, Int64 timerExpire, Boolean encrypt, Boolean trustServerCert, Boolean integratedSecurity, SqlConnection owningObject, Boolean aliasLookup) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlInternalConnectionTds.OpenLoginEnlist(SqlConnection owningObject, SqlConnectionString connectionOptions, String newPassword, Boolean redirectedUserInstance) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlInternalConnectionTds..ctor(DbConnectionPoolIdentity identity, SqlConnectionString connectionOptions, Object providerInfo, String newPassword, SqlConnection owningObject, Boolean redirectedUserInstance) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnectionFactory.CreateConnection(DbConnectionOptions options, Object poolGroupProviderInfo, DbConnectionPool pool, DbConnection owningConnection) at System.Data.ProviderBase.DbConnectionFactory.CreatePooledConnection(DbConnection owningConnection, DbConnectionPool pool, DbConnectionOptions options) at System.Data.ProviderBase.DbConnectionPool.CreateObject(DbConnection owningObject) at System.Data.ProviderBase.DbConnectionPool.UserCreateRequest(DbConnection owningObject) at System.Data.ProviderBase.DbConnectionPool.GetConnection(DbConnection owningObject) at System.Data.ProviderBase.DbConnectionFactory.GetConnection(DbConnection owningConnection) at System.Data.ProviderBase.DbConnectionClosed.OpenConnection(DbConnection outerConnection, DbConnectionFactory connectionFactory) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.Open() at System.Data.Common.DbDataAdapter.FillInternal(DataSet dataset, DataTable[] datatables, Int32 startRecord, Int32 maxRecords, String srcTable, IDbCommand command, CommandBehavior behavior) at System.Data.Common.DbDataAdapter.Fill(DataSet dataSet, Int32 startRecord, Int32 maxRecords, String srcTable, IDbCommand command, CommandBehavior behavior) at System.Data.Common.DbDataAdapter.Fill(DataSet dataSet)
The strange thing is that I can connect just fine to this server (and run the stored procedure in question) using Query Analyzer from the client machine. I have double- and tripple-checked the credentials (and had someone else look too) and they are correct. I also checked telnet to port 1433 and it doesn't fail to connect. Ping is shut down at the firewall.
The connection string looks like this (basically):
Data Source=10.0.0.137;Initial Catalog=XXXXXX;uid=xxxxx;pwd=xxxxx
This is conecting to a remote instance across a couple firewalls. Both machines are Windows Server 2003. I don't have much more information about the SQL 2000 server machine, but the client machine is running plain vanilla server 2k3 with no third party software firewalls or a/v.
Has anyone run into this before? I know Query Analyzer and ADO.NET user different connection methods, but the permissions shouldn't be any different, right?
Thanks in advance.

Does anyone know how to diable the File => Connect option in Query Analyzer?
Thanks
Clarification:
The situation is that I have several users on an application that controls their access to the DB. The user ID has full rights to the DB but the application stops them from making changes to data. Now I have a user that needs to be able to create and run SELECT statements in a “Query Analyser” type of environment. I can publish a Query Analyser session with locked credentials using Citrix, but I don’t want him to be able to use the File => Connect option to reconnect with one of the application Ids thus giving him full rights in an open environment.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Good day. I was able to connect to a database server using SQL ServerEnterprise Manager. The Server name specified on the tree isJOMARGON(Windows NT). But no server was detected using either VisualStudio .NET and SQL Server's query analyzer.I highlighted one database (master) on the SQL Server EnterpriseManager and chose 'SQL Query Analyzer' under the 'Tools' menu. Itworked. The Title of the Query Analyzer window isSQL Server Analyzer - [Query- JOMARGON.master.JOMARGONJM Gonzalezand below on the status bar, I can seeJOMARGON(8.0) and JOMARGONJM Gonzalez(52)But again, I cannot connect manually using Query Analyzer as nothing islisted in the SQL Server drop-down listThanks

Hey all,
I am still pretty new to all of this and I am having problems accessing a the same DB twice in my page. I want to pull information once in one spot, but then pull different information in a different spot on the page. Anyway, in the first spot, I have the following code:
Dim conString As String = WebConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings("DataConn").ConnectionString
Dim con As New SqlConnection(conString)Dim cmd As New SqlCommand("Select Team1.TeamID as Team1ID, Team1.TeamName as HomeTeam, Team2.TeamID as Team2ID, Team2.TeamName as AwayTeam, Football_Schedule.ScheduleID as ScheduleID from (Select * from Football_Teams) as Team1, (Select * from Football_Teams) as Team2, Football_Schedule where Football_schedule.team1 = Team1.teamid AND Football_Schedule.team2 = Team2.teamid order by Football_Schedule.WeekNum, Team1.TeamName, Team2.Teamname", con)Using con
con.Open()
Dim RS As SqlDataReader = cmd.ExecuteReader()
While RS.Read()
blah blah blah
End While
End Using
Then in my other spot on the page I have the following:
Dim cmdresults As New SqlCommand("Select Users.Firstname, sum(PointsID) as TotalPoints from Football_Input, Football_Schedule, Users where Football_Input.TeamID = Football_Schedule.winID and users.userid = Football_Input.UserID Group by Users.firstname")
Using con
con.Open()Dim RD As SqlDataReader = cmdresults.ExecuteReader()
While RD.Read()%>
<tr>
<td><%=RD%>
</td>
</tr>
<%End While
End Using
When I try to execute I get this error, "ExecuteReader: Connection property has not been initialized." on the following line, "
RD As SqlDataReader = cmdresults.ExecuteReader()" Any ideas? If possible a little explanation on how multiple connections to the same database work would be nice just for future reference.
Thanks in advance!!,
Chris
When I begin Enterprise Manager and open a connection to a Server, it fails with a timeout error. But if I do a refresh and then connect again, it immediately works.
I have had similar symptoms setting up a data source for ODBC. When you initially logon to SQL Server to define the connection it times out. But then if you immediately try again it succeeds.
Furthermore one of my application programs fails to work (due to the timeout) on systems that have this behavior.
I have had these symptoms occur on 2 diferent workstations, but other workstations access the SQL Server with no problem.
All systems are WinNT 4.0; the engine is SQL Server 7 with SP2. The timeout is defined as 15 seconds so should be long enough.
Does anyone know what is going on, or how to fix it?
When I run the following query from Query Analyzer in SQL Serer 2005, I get a message back that says.
Command(s) completed successfully.
What I really need it to do is to display the results of the query. Does anyone know how to do this?
declare @SniierId as uniqueidentifierset @SniierId = '85555560-AD5D-430C-9B97-FB0AC3C7DA1F'declare @SniierAlias as nvarchar(50)declare @AlwaysShowEditButton as bitdeclare @SniierName as nvarchar (128)/* Check access for Sniier */SELECT TOP 1 @SniierName = Sniiers.SniierName, @SniierAlias = Sniiers.SniierAlias, @AlwaysShowEditButton = Sniiers.AlwaysShowEditButtonFROM SniiersWHERE Sniiers.SniierId=@SniierId
THis is so annoying. I have 3 ADO executes in my program. THe first one creates a view, the second one performs an outer join on that view and returns a result set, the third execute drops the aforementioned view. THe program that is using this is installed on about 200 computers scattered across Germany and Italy, all querying the same MSsql server 7.0. THe queries run quite quick when few users are actively using the program (after hours for example). however in the heat of the day performance goes up and down dramatically with identical queries taking from 1 to 20 seconds to return their result set. Now I initially thought 'bandwidth issue out of our server'. However I noticed that if I take those three queries and run them from the sql server enterprise manager( running on the same computer as the aforementioned program) then the queries run instantly and the data is in my result pane in less than 2 seconds ALWAYS....even when the program is dogging it with 20 second delays before the result set returns. I know it is hanging on the return of the result set as I put a stop after before each ADO execute in order to check which one was eating up my time. Why is there this dichotomy between running the queries from my enterprise manager versus running them from an ADO object. Both are using TCP/IP (no named pipes involved). I havent monkied with the attributes of the ADO result set so they are all set to default.
I have used the sql server profiler to trace these queries and they always run in less than 33 milliseconds. THe duration is also never more than 33 milliseconds. THis stinks of a network resource issue but what always leads me somewhere else is how consistent the performance of the enterprise manager is when it runs the exact same three queries.
Here is my slightly edited connection string
Public Const connection_string = "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Server=000.000.000.000;" & _
"User ID=johndoe;Password=janedoe;Network=dbmssocn;" & _
"database=fidojoe"
Here are the 3 ADO executes:
conn.Execute (sqlstr_create_view)
Set resultset1 = conn.Execute(sqlstr_get_providers_by_DMISID)
conn.Execute (sqlstr_drop_view)
When I run query in excel it gives result with different column sequence. The same query gives result with different column sequence when used in query analyzer or VBA Macro. E.g., Select * from ABC.

Result with Query Analyzer and VBA Macro

I hope I am not asking about something that has been done before, but Ihave searched and cannot find an answer. What I am trying to do is torun a query, and then perform some logic on the rowcount and thenpossibly display the result of the query. I know it can be done withADO, but I need to do it in Query Analyzer. The query looks like this:select Varfrom DBwhere SomeCriteriaif @@Rowcount = 0select 'n/a'else if @@Rowcount = 1select -- this is the part where I need to redisplay the resultfrom the above queryelse if @@Rowcount > 1-- do something elseThe reason that I want to do it without re-running the query is that Iwant to minimize impact on the DB, and the reason that I can't useanother program is that I do not have a develpment environment where Ineed to run the queries. I would select the data into a temp table, butagain, I am concerned about impacting the DB. Any suggestions would begreatly appreciated. I am really hoping there is something as simple as@@resultset, or something to that effect.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI am trying to determine which of three stored procedure designs arefastest in the Query Analyzer:One query is a straight SELECT query with all desired rows and a dozen(tblName.RowName = @param or @param = Null) filters in the WHEREstatement.One query populates a #Temp table with the UniqueIDs from the resultsof the SELECT query in the above example, then joins that #Temp tableto get the desired rows.One query users EXEC sp_executesql @sql, @paramlist, @paramin which the @param has the dozen filters.What I'm trying to determine is which is the fastest.Each time I run the query in Query Analyzer it returns the samerecordset (duh!) but with much different Time Statistics.Are the Time Statisticts THE HOLY QRAIL as far as determining which isfastest, and what so I want to look at, the Vale or the Average?

I have an VB.NET web app which performs a fairly complicated SQL query. It seems in the morning, the 1st time the page is loaded (and query executed) it takes up to 10-15 seconds to complete loading. Sometimes it even times out. However anytime after that, the page loads up (even from another computer) in about 4-5 seconds. Can someone explain the reason for this and how I might fix the load times in the morning?
Thanks
Hi there, I'm a little bit stumped on this one.
I have a column in a table that records when the date and time of an event took place.
Table Name: Chronicle
Column Name: Created (of type DateTime)
I would like to select the Chronicle records that are between two dates.
(e.g. 1 May 2001 and 20 May 2001)
And I would like to select those records that are between two times.
(e.g. 6:00am and 1:00pm)
Does anyone know how to do this or have any pointers for me?
I can see it would be easier if I had the date in one column and the time in the other.
Can it be done without doing that?
cheers,

Is Query Analyzer being droped in MS-SQL 2005? I'm using Microsoft SQL
Server Managemant Studio and I couldn't find the Store Procedure node
and Query Analyzer anymore. Help is appreciated.
Say you have a state column with the name of a state in it. And you need to add a branchId to the table. I know I should not have it in there, and the application should use proper lookup tables, but that's not the case.
Can SQL Server query analyzer loop through and update the branchid field based on a lookup in a lookup table?
How would that be done?

Does anyone know if there is a limitation in Query Analyzer in terms of the number of characters in a query that it will parse?
I am having a problem with some large queries, and I am not sure if it is Query Analyzer, or the SQL Server query parsing engine that is causing the problem.
The query just involves a simple SELECT statement, albeit for a large number of columns.
Hi,
I'm using SQL Server 7.0. I connect to one database in Query Analyzer and I can use the "Perform Index Analysis" option under the "Query" menu option. when I connect to one of our other databases, the "Perform Index Analysis" option under the "Query" menu option is disabled (greyed out). Does anyone know what the problem could be and how might I be able to enable this option.
Thanks in advance,

Hello
In query Analyzer of SQL2000 when i select
2 Select Queries and Run it shows in same Window as 2 Grids
I have seen people using seperate grid option to view each query results in a Tab query results Pane in MSSQL 7.
Eg Select * from table1 (in one grid)
select * from table2 (in another grid)
like a TAB so that i can move from one tab to another.
Is it possible to do that in query Analyzer?
Regards
I would like to use the Query Analyzer to create a script that will prompt the user(dialog box) for a response in SQL Server 7.0. I found a post someone mentioned DBMS can return messages and using Query Analyzer.
Thanks for your help in advance.
I'm trying to do a couple of things with some different tables.
With the first table, I have first name and last name in two separate columns.
I'm trying to create a new ID column that would do the following.
Take the first 3 letters of the last name (and remove any non characters such as ',&) and the first 3 letters of the first name, and then combine them.
I know how to use substring to take the first three, and I know how to combine them, but I'm having problems removing the non alpha characters.
For example, if the columns looked as follows:
First Last
John O'Connor
I'd want the result to look like OCOJOH, however, I'm getting O'CJOH.
The second issue is how would I do something similar if the First and Last Name were in the same column and string.
For example, if the column looks as follows:
Name
John O'Connor Publishing
I'd like to pull the first 3 from the first string before the space and then the next 3 so it would be as follows:
JOHOCO
Finally, I want to compare these new IDs, and add numbers to them.
So if I had the following
First Last
John O'Connor
Johnny O'Connell
The first would be OCOJOH01
The second would be OCOJOH02
If there are not any duplicates with the new ID, I'd like to call it OCOJOH01 and then move on.
Any help/ideas would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

hi everybody!
this is my first post, so I'd like to say hallo to everyone!
I "work" on SQL Server 2000, and I would like to ask you a question.
Is it correct that i cannot set a database user as database owner (using command sp_changedbowner 'user_name')?
QA returns this error message:
"Server: Msg 15110, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_changedbowner, Line 46
The proposed new database owner is already a user in the database."
so I have to use sp_revokedbaccess and then I can change the db owner.
why can't a db user be the db owner?
thanks for the answers!!

Hello,
how is the query analyzer opening a database??? Does someone knows the command it uses to open the connection ??
I ask this because i have corrupted datafiles stored on a flash card which i can not open with connection.open but the analyzer opens them normally. After that i can open the datafiles using normal code
Does it use any special params?? I get the corrupted files on power down and after that i can not open them from my application. I can only do this after i open them once with the query analyzer
The database is about 20 MB stored on a flash card
Thanks in advance
We recently upgraded from SQL 6.5 to SQL 7. I have a few .sql files that were each running around 5 - 8 minutes under 6.5. These same files now each take over 30 minutes to run. Has anybody had problems with their queries taking longer to run under 7.0? These files are quite large and are comprised of 3 - 4 batches with several queries in each batch. If anybody has any thoughts on the cause please let me know.
Thanks in advance.
