How to grant DROP table permission within a database to an SQL login. I could see in Databae properties-> permission tab, there is an option to grant CREATE TABLE, EXECUTE permission etc, but not DROP table permission. How to grant it?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI have 2 stored procedure, insert and update.
They both drop and use a static table, this will be changed for production to use a temp table. there is a slight difference in how the create the table and when it comes to executing them if the other has been run first it errors because of the column definition or names.
Now as I said I will change these to use a temp table rather than a static staging table for production but as one of the first parts of my proc uses the IF OBJECT_ID ('dbo.tab', 'U') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE dbo.Tab;
Then I would expect the table difference to not matter as the table is being dropped...

View 2 Replies View RelatedFor reasons that are not relevant (though I explain them below *), Iwant, for all my users whatever privelige level, an SP which createsand inserts into a temporary table and then another SP which reads anddrops the same temporary table.My users are not able to create dbo tables (eg dbo.tblTest), but arepermitted to create tables under their own user (eg MyUser.tblTest). Ihave found that I can achieve my aim by using code like this . . .SET @SQL = 'CREATE TABLE ' + @MyUserName + '.' + 'tblTest(tstIDDATETIME)'EXEC (@SQL)SET @SQL = 'INSERT INTO ' + @MyUserName + '.' + 'tblTest(tstID) VALUES(GETDATE())'EXEC (@SQL)This becomes exceptionally cumbersome for the complex INSERT & SELECTcode. I'm looking for a simpler way.Simplified down, I am looking for something like this . . .CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.TestInsert ASCREATE TABLE tblTest(tstID DATETIME)INSERT INTO tblTest(tstID) VALUES(GETDATE())GOCREATE PROCEDURE dbo.TestSelect ASSELECT * FROM tblTestDROP TABLE tblTestIn the above example, if the SPs are owned by dbo (as above), CREATETABLE & DROP TABLE use MyUser.tblTest while INSERT & SELECT usedbo.tblTest.If the SPs are owned by the user (eg MyUser.TestInsert), it workscorrectly (MyUser.tblTest is used throughout) but I would have to havea pair of SPs for each user.* I have MS Access ADP front end linked to a SQL Server database. Forreports with complex datasets, it times out. Therefore it suit mypurposes to create a temporary table first and then to open the reportbased on that temporary table.

All is happened when a server crashed some weeks ago and it was removed from my network. After that, under my SQL Server 2012 I get an orphaned account which cannot be removed. This account is a computer account related to an old SCOM installation.
If I try to execute the command DROP USER [NETWORKSERVERNAME$] I get the following error message:
The database principal has granted or denied permissions to objects in the database and cannot be dropped. Msg 15284, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The database principal has granted or denied permissions to objects in the database and cannot be dropped.But if I run the following command to know all permission granted to the account, I get an empty result:
select * from sys.database_permissions where grantee_principal_id = user_id ('NetworkSERVERNAME$');
Furthermore, following the instructions provided by the official KB for troubleshooting orphaned users, I get another error [URL].
sp_change_users_login 'update_one', 'NetworkSERVERNAME$', 'NetworkSERVERNAME$'
Msg 15291, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_change_users_login, Line 114
Terminating this procedure. The User name 'NetworkSERVERNAME$' is absent or invalid.
The only thing I can retrieve is 15 permissions that this account granted to another account in the past:
select *
from sys.database_permissions
where grantor_principal_id = user_id ('NetworkSERVERNAME$'
--
class class_desc major_id minor_id grantee_principal_id grantor_principal_id type permission_name state state_desc
17 SERVICE 65538 0 5 19 SN SEND G GRANT
And more 14 rows…
resolve my issue and safe delete the account SERVERNAME$? I need this because I have to reinstall SCOM with the same computer name on another server, but installation fails due to this behavior.
I used code below to drop one temporary table. How to make code to drop all temporary tables?

I am looking for standard sql code for below 2 concern.
1- I want to drop the column Rowchecksum to all the table where table name start with ArchiveBbx
2-I want to update all the table where table name start with ArchiveBbx
example:-
Update table Archivebbxfbcc
set Rowchecksum=HASHBYTES('MD5', CAST(CHECKSUM(Col001, Col002, Col003, Col004) AS varchar(max)))
I have a VIEW which is dynamically generated through complex dynamic SQL. Unfortunately the dynamic SQL uses "Select * from table" to select the columns because the programmer did that to reduce the amount of code in the dynamic SQL string as the code can't be debugged if it's too long.
Therefore, I have a VIEW with columns in it I don't need, and want to remove them from the view - I need to remove all columns with column names matching the syntax '%1%_2' .
The view is called TEMP_EXPORT_1
I can either use the code below to return a list of columns that I want removed:
select column_name from information_schema.columns
where table_name='TEMP_EXPORT_1' and column_name like '%1%_2'
Or I can use the code below to return the list of columns that I want to keep:
select column_name from information_schema.columns
where table_name='TEMP_EXPORT_1' and column_name not like '%1%_2'
Now how would I go about altering TEMP_EXPORT_1 view so that it no longer has these columns? I know views don't have a drop statement...
Therefore I tried the following but I'm not sure of the syntax:
ALTER VIEW dbo.TEMP_EXPORT_1
AS
SELECT (select column_name from information_schema.columns
where table_name='TEMP_EXPORT_1' and column_name not like '%1%_2')
FROM dbo.TEMP_EXPORT_1
Am I on the right track? how can I ALTER this view to remove these columns? ... I want to keep this separate from the code that generated the view as I want it as an optional procedure that can be run if needed.
My question: Is it okay to drop all the auto generated column statistics? (for the following scenario)
- I am cleaning up unnecessary objects (tables, unused indexes, overlapping statistics etc) from databases and found out there are more than 1400 auto generated column statistics on one database (lets call it A).
- Database A was used to be our reporting database but from last several years we are using database B for reporting. DB A has all the historical data while DB B only has valid records.
- We are updating all the column statistics with full scan nightly on database A and it is talking almost 2.5 hours to do that. Now I want to drop all the "unnecessary" statistics those were created when DB A was reporting database and they are no longer in use. There is no way to know the creation date of the column statistics that I know of. Statistics "last update date" is of no use because of our nightly job. So I was thinking of dropping all the auto generated column statistics and let the sql server create as it needs from now.
A heavily-selected database will be in an inconsistent state for several hours during a batch process. For that time, a database snapshot is created and accessed instead. To allow constant client read access to the database, a database that only contains synonyms exists. Those synonyms point to the main database except during the batch process, at which time they point to the database snapshot.
To switch the synonyms, each synonym is dropped and then created pointing to the database snapshot (after its creation, of course). The drop/create occurs inside a transaction. Roughly, the SQL looks like this:
SET XACT_ABORT ON;
BEGIN TRANSACTION;
DROP SYNONYM [dbo].[some_proc];
CREATE SYNONYM [dbo].[some_proc] FOR [snapshot_db].[dbo].[some_proc];
GRANT EXECUTE, SELECT ON [dbo].[some_proc] TO public;
COMMIT TRANSACTION;
When the batch update is completed, the process is reversed with "snapshot_db" replaced with "regular_db". The SQL snippet above is dynamic SQL. What I've pasted is the dynamic SQL that is executed as a single batch.
While this switch is happening, clients are accessing the procedures through the synonyms, potentially at a high request rate. Testing reveals that clients can get the error:
Error=-2147217900, Id=0, Meaning=IDispatch error #3092,
Source=Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers,
Description=[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Could not find stored procedure 'dbo.some_proc'.
This error only occurs once. If the same SPID retries its request and the transaction has not completed (for testing, a delay was added), then it blocks until the transaction completes.
Any way to prevent it besides a client-side retry?
Since a couple days, we are getting this message the errorlog of one of our SQL2012 server
LogEntry: Error [36, 17, 145] occurred while attempting to drop allocation unit ID 451879652360192 belonging to worktable with partition ID 451879652360192.

I am wondering what is the best way trying to troubleshoot this issues? I do not know from which of out database this is coming.
I have a temptable with a list of user IDs that I want to drop so I created a script to do a cursor and run through my drop functions. The drops work by themselves and the ver check works with them but when I wrap them in the cursor all i get is an output for each user in the results window in ssms. why it's not setting the variable and instead outputting to results?
DECLARE @ver nvarchar(128);
DECLARE @UserName nvarchar(50);
DECLARE @UserD nvarchar(80);
DECLARE @LoginD nvarchar(80);
-- Initialize the variable.
SET @ver = CAST(serverproperty('ProductVersion') AS nvarchar)

Here's my setup:
1) SSRS in native mode
2) 2012
3) I have "Browser, Content Manager, My Reports, Publisher, Report Builder" permissions on the folder that has the report
I can't see the drop down list associated with the report that's hosted inside the folder. Here's what I mean by drop down list -- the one that lists things like: properties, subscribe, etc. In other words If i click on that dropdown arrow, I don't see the list.
I am trying to install the MS SQL Server 2012 Failover Cluster on Windows Server 2012 . I successfully Installed the Failover cluster instance on my primary node.
But when I am running the installation process on passive node to add node in the failover cluster I am stuck with very unique kind of issue.
I am following the Standard process of Installation and I am getting the same windows for each next process, but after License Agreement window when I get the Cluster Node Configuration window, then in "SQL Server Instance Name" drop down box I am not getting the Name of Instance which is already installed on the primary node. But this Instance complete information is appearing in below given box.
Only issue is Instance name is not appearing in the drop down list, that's why I am not able to select and when I click on next it trough error and do not proceed.
which one is smarter, where there is no indexing on the table which is really simple table delete everything or recreate table. I got an argument with one of my coworker. He says it doesnt matter i say do delete. Any opinions.

hi everyone,
I have a couple questions. I'm very new to SQL and I have this problem:
I need to be able to drop the contents of Existingtable_B into Newtable_A - I found this command (below) that will make a 'copy' but I don't want to keep the contents of Existingtable_B. Is it possible to drop them into Newtable_A instead of copy? Also, I want to do this for 5 tables on Sundays at midnight.. how could I schedule that? Finally, what happens if there is not enough space or some other critical error happens during this procedure? I don't want to lose the data.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I need some help with Merge Replication. After successfully defining a publisher, distributor and subscriber to perform merge replication, we decided to test Merge Replication to see what we can and can't do.
What we found is that you can't add new fields or change the nullable/null attributes of tables whilst the replication settings are still defined to the databases. ie you get the following error
'tblProducts' table
- Unable to modify table.
ODBC error: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Cannot drop the table 'dbo.tblProducts' because it is published for replication.
So we thought, fair enough. We decided to uninstall replication using the wizards provided to see whether we can make schema changes. What we found is that we can make schema changes to the publisher database(on Server1), BUT not to the subscriber (Server2).
Does anyone know why? We are running SQL7 SP2.

We have a table created by an application, and a view that joins the table with other tables.
For some reason we are now unable to drop the table or the view. In Enterprise Manager the drop table dialog comes up, we click 'Drop All' and then the hour glass comes up and never goes away. No errors are returned, the process just never returns control to the client, the same when trying to remove the view. Using Query Analyzer is no different.
However stopping and starting the server resolves the problem for a while, but eventually the same problem starts happening. The table is created, populated and dropped using stored procedures called from a web page via asp script. This process may occur numerous times and hasn't been a problem until the last day or so when the developer added a couple of smallint columns to the table.
Anyone know what could be the problem here?
