We are running a 3rd party ETL tool to populate a denormailized version of a production database for reports. Everything works fine 95% of the time. However there is a semi-rare occurence of the ETL tool hanging up. The norm is for the tool to take about 5 times longer than usual, but it still works. Over the weekend however it through an error saying:
The SQL Server cannot obtain a LOCK resource at this time. Rerun your statement when there are fewer active users or ask the system administrator to check the SQL Server lock and memory configuration.
The reports are run through Crystal using stored procs and are all basically select statements
So my question(s) are the following: 1. What kind of lock would a report put on a table (select statement) 2. Would it make sense to change stored procs to use WITH NOLOCK? 3. Or is something else going on?
First off is it possible to limit access to one specific table within a SQL 2000 database? If so could someone point me in the correct direction on doing this?
I have what may be an elementary question; any help that anyone can provide would be greatly appreciated.
Assumptions: 1.) Running SQL Server 2000 on Windows 2000 2.) Using only Windows Authentication 3.) Have 2 databases 4.) I have a group of users that I need different Access to each database. a.) This group needs only "select" privileges to the tables and views in "database 1" b.) This same group needs DBA privileges (Add, Remove, and modify Tables, Views, etc.) to "database 2"
What would be the best, most efficient way to accomplish this? These users are currently a members of a Windows group which has only "select" privileges to the tables and views in "database 1".
Perhaps someone can answer this question. I was given a document from a Microsoft consultant and setting up a secure SQL Server 2000 server for my company. This document is being used to setup standards for our enterprise implementation of SQL Servers.
In the document, it has a procedure of disabling the MSDTC service stating that, "the DTC can be used by COM+ applications to manage transactions across multiple database servers." But it really doesn't suffieniently state why this is a good security practice. Can anyone out there tell me why this is a good idea.
Background: We use the Standard Edition, and currently have no distributed servers out there, nor do we have replication. A side note, just recently we have been asked to install a replicated server for fail-over capability. Will disabling the DTC service hinder us?
Hi I'm going to put my database in setup file that I've been ready before. My Software could be use from database after installing in every system , but other users won't be able to access to data or structure of database , even with adding of database to SQLServe Enterprise Manager . How Should I can do about this ? Tanks very much
Hi , I am trying to connect to MS Sql server 2000 from Java (1.4.2 /1.5 ). I installed my Sql Server(8.00.382) from the one supplied withVS.NET 2001. When I installed it on my laptop it did not ask me for auser name and password. After install when I re-started my machine Isee the server started up with a green light. Now when I connect to theserver from VS.NET it works fine. This is because VS uses windowsintegrated security. I now need to connect using Java , so I downloadedthe microsoft drivers for SQL2000-JDBC sp3 from the microsoft site. Iadded the jar files to my Java project classpath. I manage to registerthe driver in java :Class dbClass = ClassLoader.getSystemClassLoader().loadClass("com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver");DriverManager.registerDriver((Driver) dbClass.newInstance() );Connection conn =DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://localhost:1433;_integrated security=SSPI");but cannot seem to get a connection as it gives an SQLException sayingthat it is unable to connect:java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC]Errorestablishing socket.I cant seem to figure it out.Can some one help ??I am a newbie to sqlserver so couldnt quite figure out how to changeadmin password or create a new user with the tools provided with thisversion of sql (SQL Server Desktop Engine).Any help will be appreciated.Ebby
I have setup a new SQL 2000 SP4 and internal auditor query about revoke permission from Public role and remove guest from all databases.
1. Can I revoke all default permissions (select on system tables in all DBs) from "Public" role? I am concern any error after such action.
2. I found that guest account in DB -- master, tempdb and msdb. According to Microsoft documents. The account should not remove and can't from master and tempdb. How about msdb?
i was trying to install sql server 2000 enterprise edition on win 2003 with SP1. i got stuck with this error sayinbg;"the driver software you are installing has not been properly signed with Autheticode(TM) technology. therefore windows cannot tell if the software has been modified since it was published. the publisher's identity cannot be verified because of a problem, The installed INF file does not contain digital signature infromation"
Do you still want to install this driver software?
No matter what i click, either yes or no, it takes me nowhere. i googled it everywhere still could not find a solution. please let me know if you guys got any idea.
We have experienced an issue with back backup / restore of a database originating from SQL Server 2000 to SQL Server 2003.
We have the following setup:
SQL Server 2000
- DatabaseA
- asdfUser (SQL User)
- asdfUser is (dbowner) of DatabaseA
- DatabaseB
- asdfUser (SQL User)
- asdfUser is (dbowner) of DatabaseB
SQL Server 2005 Standard
-asdfUser is NOT Setup as a user yet.
-We restore DatabaseA and DatabaseB to the SQL Server 2005 Standard. The databases are restored with the security permissions of asdfUser being the DB Owner of DatabaseA and DatabaseB.
-We create a new SQL user named asdfUser on the SQL Server 2005 box. We then try to add the UserMapping of DBOWNER for the DatabaseA and DatabaseB. We receive an error message stating that the asdfUser already have permissions to the databases. We proceed with the user creation without those permissions.
-We proceed to the login properties of the asdfuser and view their UserMappings. The asdfUser does not have access to DatabaseA or DatabaseB. We then add the UserMapping of DBOWNER to both DatabaseA and DatabaseB. We Try to select OK and we receive an error message that states that the user already has those permissions.
-When we query the UserID's of the asdfUser that is in the database and the UserID of the asdfUser that is created, they are two different values.
I have posted this issue for a week, haven't got any reply yet, I posted it again and desperately need your help.
The article http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms365343.aspx says: Model Item Security can be set for differnt security filters, but when I use SQL Server Management Studio to set Model Item Security, it seems "Permissions" property surpass "Model Item Security" property. -- My report server is using Custom Authentication.
For example, in "Permissions" property of the model, if I checked "Use these roles for each group or user account" without setting any user or group, no matter what users I added to "Model Item Security" with "Secure individual model items independently for this model" checked, NO one user can see the model on report manager and report builder;
in above situation, if I added "user1" and gave role such as "Browser" role to "user1" in "Permissions" property, if I checked "Secure individual model items independently for this model" in "Model Item Security" property, even I did NOT grant "user1" to root model and any entities under the model, the "user1" is able to access the model and all entities in report builder.
My question is on the same report model, how to set "AdminFilter" (empty security filter) for administrator permissions and set "GeneralFilter" (filtered on UserID) for general user based on their UserID?
The article also says:
"Security filters are always applied, even for users who have Content Manager or Administrator permissions to the model. To allow administrators or other users to see all rows of an entity on which row-level security is defined, you can create an empty security filter (which always returns True) and then use the filter to grant those users access to all the rows."
So I defined 2 filters "GeneralFilter" and "AdminFilter" for "Staff" entity for my report model "SSRSModel", I expect after I deployed the report model, the administrator users use report builder to build reports with all rows available, and the non-admin users can only see rows based on their UserID.
I can only get one result at a time but not both:
either the rows are filtered or not filtered at all, no matter how I set the "SecurityFilter" for the entity: I tried setting both "AdminFilter" and "GeneralFilter" for SecurityFilter at the same time, combination of "DefaultSecurityFilter" and "SecurityFilter", or one at a time.
I have to implement some logic in a view and I don't know how to do it. Let me outline the logic:
- I'm working with a view where records represent participant activities. - Some participants can have numerous activities. - Each activity has a start date and an activity code. - Only records with activity code 23 or 33 appear in the view currently.
What I need to do is NOT include records where the participant has another activity with code 26 (from another table, the one the current view is derived from) which has the same start date as the activity 23/33 record in the view currently. Also, this should only be implemented if the start date is the first start date (minimum start date for that participant).
I've noticed that there are a lot of questions on this forum, but not as many thank you's. I'm far from a DBA (more of a simple, small town, one stop shop), but have learned tons of information from reading your posts. I certainly appreciate everyone's willingness and excitment to contribute to the SQL community. So here's to you...thank you!

Is there any possibility to schedule SQL job execution as Windows Security Group? I need to run powershell script through SQL job with one of this group member's permissions.Â
I have Sql Server Express installed on Vista (service pack 2)
I have Visual Studio 2005 with an application that I'm trying to access it with within a WCF service.
The login ID of the service is added to the database.
The database has remote access turned on.
The ID is granted access to all databases within the server.
The thread is being set with WindowsProvider and the services set their thread to WindowsProvider.
The dataserver is set with using Windows Authentication for security.
When I open my connection to the database, though, it reports the typically useless message that the connection is not allowed and that the server may not allow remote connections.
How to I get past this? I've done everything right.
I want to use an Active Directory security group that is a Distribution List for a new role assignment for an existing report. Can someone tell me if this is possible? I get an error each time I try:
The user or group name <DLName> is not recognized. (rsUnknownUserName)"
Hey guys... i cant figure this out for the life of me.

this query works, i want to add a 4th column that is the value of the 3rd column subracted from the value of the 2nd column, how can i add this?? SELECT `tagid` AS w1, (SELECT count( `value` )FROM tagsWHERE `value` =1AND `tagid` = w1) AS w2, (SELECT count( `value` )FROM tagsWHERE `value` =0AND `tagid` = w1) AS w3FROM tagsWHERE `value` > -1GROUP BY `tagid`ORDER BY w2 DESC
I know thsi is a silly question but gonna ask it anyway :)
When you are using the 'insert' statement to insert records in to a database are all of the fields in the db table required for a successfull adding of a record.
Just that i have 16 fields in my db table and want to insert only 11 fields in to the new record and it is giving me an error, and i am sure my SQL is correct
I just need something verified.. This has to do with IP's and names. We have a sql failover cluster. So is that 4 names.. One for each local machine, one for the cluster itself and one for the sql portion? I guess my question is can the cluster group and sql have the same name and IP or do they need to be different.
Does any one know a quicker way to get data in from TableA to TableB. Both tables have the same structure(Acct# varchar(9); Type varchar(12); Date1 datetime; Date2 datetime; Date3 datetime; Date4 datetime; and Date5 datetime No Nulls allow in Acct & Type field.
TableA has 5.5 Million Rows and TableB has about 1 million rows , I wrote a Stored Proc using cursor to select from TableA insert into TableB if the Acct# and Type doesn't exists.
I didn't want to use bcp because I only wanted rows(Acct#'s) that exists in TableA that where not in TableB. My procedure is working but at a rate of 100 records per minute. Any suggestions?
