I attached my database (shortly db) to sql server, after somedays without deattaching db i changed db path in my hard. Then when i loged in to sql server express I can't open db, So I deleted db and then attached it again. Now sql server shows my db as "Read-Ony" !!! I can't delete it or do anything and working on it causes sql server hanging up (Not work and stop).
I have two database files, one .mdf and one .ndf. The creator of these files has marked them readonly. I want to "attach" these files to a new database, but cannot do so because they are read-only. I get this message:
Server: Msg 3415, Level 16, State 2, Line 1 Database 'TestSprintLD2' is read-only or has read-only files and must be made writable before it can be upgraded.
What command(s) are needed to make these files read_write?
i have a database which get refreshed every day from client's data . and we need to pull heavy data from them every day as reports . so only selects happens on that database.
we do daily population of some table in some other databases from this daily refreshed DB.
will read uncommitted or NOLOCK with select queries to retrieve data faster.
there will be no dirty read as there are NO DML operation in that database so for SELECT which happens concurrently on these tables , will NOLOCK work?
I'm taking a database(read-only) backup from one server and restoring it on other server. As soon as restore is done it is bringing database into single-user read-only mode.
why it is bringing the database into single user mode ?
I'm new to ASP.NET (I normally work with Windows Forms) and have installed the Club Website Starter Kit. I created an Administrators role and a user called "admin". When I run the project locally, everything works as it should - I can log in as admin and I can create new users. I then copied the site to localhost (C:Inetpubwwwroot), but when I run the site from localhost, I can't log in (as admin or any other user); instead I get a message that says, "Your login attempt was not successful. Please try again." Also, I can't create a new user. When I try, I get the following error: Server Error in '/' Application.

Version Information: Microsoft .NET Framework Version:2.0.50727.42; ASP.NET Version:2.0.50727.42 I figure there must be a simple(?) explanation and solution for this problem, and ideally, some sort of step-by-step procedure that new users to ASP.NET can follow to configure a site - such as one of the starter kits - to work correctly. I can honestly say that trying to get this working has been an extremely frustrating experience. If someone could help me out, I would really appreciate it. I've been working on this for two days and feeling I have hit the wall. Thanks in advance.
Hi there,I am getting a real problem with ASP.NET 2.0, all i am trying to do is run a recovert password (using the login controls) and i got the following error.Does anybody know how to fix this? I have tried the SSEUTIL answer here and it didn't work. http://forums.asp.net/909168/ShowPost.aspxI also ensured that Network Services user has READ/WRITE/EXECUTE premissions on the directory below and that each file isn't read only and also that it inherits ACL from the directory which it seems to do..Bit of strange one this, it isn't created (and i am not using) a beta version of VS 2005 Pro... but a full retail version.The PC is the local PC with IIS 5.1 and VS installed... it is the one i am using for developing.. I don't need to copy my files to the IIS directory below as that is where i have created it and open it in VS 2005 from there..I did read that if you use IIS 5.1 then the user should be ASPNET ... but i don't seem to have that use but a Network Services user...Any help or guidance would be really appreciated... i have come to a stop stage and can't get any further..Thanksian Server Error in '/igdotcom' Application.

I have made sure that the permissions on the DB are set (in Windows) so that all users can modify. The user that is logging in to the DB has status set to DBOWNER.
I have seen others experience the same problem - with ASP.net sites, not Windows Forms sites (thus most of their solutions dont apply to me)

I'm optimizing a database running under SQL 7.0. Have anyone any knowledge wether setting the database to "read only" can enhance performance? The database is used only for reading, one table is updated via DTS on a hourly basis, the rest of the tables on a daily basis.
Hi I have been learning on how to use the new features of the .NET 2.0, and Well I using VS2005 and everything is pretty straight foward. I did a Membership webform where you log in and create users and roles etc. I installed the SQL Server 2005 express as my Data provider and thats where my Tables are.

This happens right after log in. but then I open the App. on hte VS and it runs find. This is the error:

I've reatored a database into my SQL Server 2005. It has been restored as "Read Only" Database. So I couldn't make any changes in my database. I don't know how to make the "Read Only" database as a Writable one. Can you help me out?
Hi guys, I'm using SQL Server 2005 Express. When i'm attaching My project database through "SQl Server Management Studio" The database is getting attached as a 'Read only' database. But when i'm attaching the same database from command prompt or using a batch file it is getting attached normally. The database is from another system. It is behaving the same on the parent system on which it is developed.

And After install, I have created a database with the same names (.dat an .log) and make it bigger than the first .dat and .log files. Then, I have stoped the SQL server service, have deleted the .DAT and .LOG files that i have created, and have copied the first .DAT and .LOG in their place. I have Started the SQL server service and the database was beeing suspected. I stil unable to read data. Can you help me?
I have an existing MS SQL 2005 server which is used to maintain data that has been collected from various sources around a plant. A new system has been added on our network where the data is provided in a daily MS Access database. The name of the MS Access database changes every day.
I would like to use the job manager to run a Stored Proc every night to extract the daily data from the MS Access database. Is there any way to do this.
1. From Enterprise Manager, I can choose Read-only model (able to install another transaction log). How to execute same model restore by T-SQL? This script is used by Loading model:
RESTORE DATABASE MyNwind FROM MyNwind_1 WITH NORECOVERY, MOVE 'MyNwind' TO 'c:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLDataNewNwind.mdf', MOVE 'MyNwindLog1' TO 'c:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLDataNewNwind.ldf' RESTORE LOG MyNwind FROM MyNwindLog1 WITH NORECOVERY
2. If a database is in Read-only Warm Stand-by because restore trans log files, how to turn of read-only model?
I still have transactions in use mainly to set isolation levels. There are obviously no update/delete statements in them. I'm pretty sure this will still add rows to the transaction log even though there won't be any writes to the db data files. Is it still a critical best practice to use RAID 1/0 instead of RAID 5 for the logs? Looking to re-use some existing storage rather than buy new ones. Thoughts?
I have some problem, I User Visual Web Developer 2005 Express to Create DateBase Files, when I copy the code and Database file to Server then user remote client to insert records and update, but it alert the error :
Hi,I have a site and I am using SQL Express to store my data. Since I need to install the site on many different machines, I need to have an installer. I have added a visual studio "Web Setup Project"() to my solution which is handling the installation and it is doing it fine. The only problem I have is that after each installation, my database becomes read-only and as far as I have found, tat is related to user's rights on App_Data folder. How can I solve this problem or is there a way for installer to set permissions too? Is there any other better solution at all?Thanks for your help,Cheers
I currently have a sql server 2000 sp4 instance with a read-only db on it. We get tlogs shipped from an outside vendor and keep a copy of the production database in house for reporting purposes. The database is in read-only mode because we apply new tlogs daily. Recently we did a full recover and applied 2 tlogs.
The issue: There is a user YYY in the database and at the server level, but they aren't linked. So I do what I usually do and run the following command:
Server: Msg 3906, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_change_users_login, Line 109 Could not run BEGIN TRANSACTION in database 'ZZZ' because the database is read-only.
Now this error makes sense and I understand why, so my question is how do I fix the users not being linked?
We are using 208r2. We used to generate simple reports against to prod. The production is running slow. Just we need the production fresh copy all the time. We are using mainly one database. So I need to have read only copy of that particular database which is sync with the production.
The one company gathers data into a SQL database hosted within their secure network and now one of the companies (that they are contracted to gather the data for) wants a backup of the data or a replicated database to be able to be placed onto a external HDD or different SQL server on their own network and server.
The catch is that to maintain their data security the original company doesn't want the company that is receiving the data to be able to edit the data. They are concerned that someone might change the data and claim that the data that they gathered is incorrect.
Is there a way to ensure the SQL database remains entirely read only?
we would like something like Mirroring with a Snapshot database so that the "replicated" site can read the database locally.Unfortunately, this requires SQL Enterprise edition on the reading site if I get this right.Is there a cheaper way to achieve this sort of functionality?
I attached my database to SQL 2005 but it's showing up as read-only for some reason. I've attached this before just fine in another instance of the Vista OS. Why would it attach differently this time compared to all other times and show read only?
The .mdb and .ldf files are not read only if you right-click and check out their properties.
In a nutshell, I have a stored proc that takes appx 15 minutes when it usesa read-only database, and about 2 minutes when the database is notread-only.Details:SQL Server 7The stored proc exists on a writable database on the same server. It stuffsa subset of about 20000 rows into a temp table and repeatedly updates thetemp table while doing selects and joins on the read only database, forexample,Select *into #LocalTempTablefrom SAMESERVER.dbo.ReadOnlyDatabaseTableUpdate tmp set tmp.SomeColumn = 1from #LocalTempTable tmpinner join SAMESERVER.dbo.ReadOnlyDatabaseTable x ontmp.ID = x.IDwhere SomeCriteria = SomeValue, etc, etc.If I change the read-only database to writable it works fine. There are noexplicit transactions used in the stored proc. On the same server, aproduction database exists and is constantly using transactions and temptables, but I wouldn't think this is an overall server performance issuebecause it handles the same load when the suspect database is not read-only.Any thoughts will be greatly appreciated. I'm searching all over and can'tseem to find reference to this type of issue.
I have a web-based admin section for a site and I would like to be able toquery the SQL Server database size and display it within my admin area. Isthere a function or method of doing this? My database is hosted by a thirdparty...I appreciate any tips or advice you can provide!Rob
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException .... because the database is read-only
( I'm putting this here so searches can find it easier)
I got this idea from a related thread, but they used a NETWORK user that is obsolete in 2007.
I found that you have to edit the actual file properties on the ASPNETDB.MDF and ASPNETDB.LDF files so that the ASPUSER has full access. i.e. on the file properties, security tab, hit the Add button and type in ASP.NET then return. Back at the security properties, click on the 'Full Control' checkbox at the top. That took care of it for me.
This was after checking the IIS control panel for the properties on the folder that contained my application and App_Data folders to be sure that the "Write" checkbox was already checked, it was
Of course this assumes that you have installed the express version of SQL from Microsoft
