I have old editions of SQL Server such as 6.5, 7.0, 2000, and 2005. The biggest hold up we have in retiring these servers is the connection string changes that would have to be made. Any way that I could redirect these calls to a newer SQL Server 2012?

I redirected errors the some err table I defined. SSIS package gives two columns for the error information. One is the ErrorCode, the other is ErrorColumn. But the values for those two are some numbers which I have no ideas of what it means. How to translate to some meaningful information?
Thanks a lot
Hi
Is there any way to redirect results to file directly while executing query? Like in management studio we can redirect result to Text or File.(Option Result to File)

I'm getting some strange error handling behaviour when I tried to redirect rows when an error is encountered at the OLE DB Destination. I enabled the fastload option and set the maximum insert commit size to 10,000. My package is trying to insert 1,000,000 rows. When the row containing bad data is encountered, the entire batch is redirected to a separate table with no table constraints. So I have approx 990,000 rows of good data inserted, and approx 10,000 rows in an error table. However, only 2 of the 10,000 rows are actually bad data.
I changed the filter in the data source to reload 5 rows from the 10,000 rows of bad data. The 5 rows include the 2 rows of bad data. The fastload option and max insert commit size at the OLE DB Destination are not changed. When the package completed, 3 rows were inserted to the destination and the 2 bad rows are redirected again. Even though this is the outcome I wanted (only the real bad data is redirected), shouldn't all 5 rows be redirected since they should all be treated as a single batch?
My second question is, is there a way to get the best of both worlds - be able to load lots of data as fast as possible and only redirect the rows that are actually bad?
Thanks.
Hi,
I am developing a package which takes data from SQL Server 2005 and hits the JDE files.
In this package I need to send error mail when anyrow returns failure on OLE DB Command component which calls JDE Stored Procedure. So I created a script component which takes error output (red arrow) from OLE DB Command component. But whenever error is triggered, this is not redirecting the rows to script component even though I configured Error output as "Redirect Row". Can anyone please tell me how to redirect error to a script component?
Is there a method in SQL Server 2k to re-locate the physical databasefiles at the time the server reboots. Currently, the only way I know todo this is by scripting some OS-level commands.Thanks in advance for your help.Amy BoydDatabase AdministratorNetwork Associates*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!

I have setup ssl encryption for SQL connections by using a self-signed certificate (not the best I know) and setting "Force Encryption" to Yes. Now I am trying to show that the connection is indeed encrypted and I like to see which the ssl-key is used for a connection; preferably the one that I provided. How can I do this? I am just not comfortable trusting the OS or SQL to do what I ask.The query "SELECT encrypt_option FROM sys.dm_exec_connections" Shows incrypted but no extra info.

The reason I need this script is that we have no control over the password changes and need to know if the salesforce team changes the password without informing us.

I have a DB that is currently not normalized and will be getting about 100K concurrent users that will mostly be doing Read-Only operations from multiple tables.
I am trying to figure out if I should start thinking of having a DB per client (1000 clients) or if I should normalize the database and keep it as a single DB with good indexes and partitioning.
Hardware is not a problem but 100K concurrent users is.
I have a customer who is looking to encrypt their applications connection to the back-end SQL server. I've gotten a valid certificate for the server from a trusted CA, and it's installed on the server (shows up in Personal certificates in the Certificate MMC when selecting the computer) and I can choose it in the drop down on the certificates tab of the SQL Network protocols properties in Configuration Manager.
Now, my question: If I select the certificate but do NOT enable the "Force Encryption" option, the client will be able to request encryption on their end, and the connection will then be encrypted. If the client (other applications) do NOT request encryption, they will still be able to connect, but their connection will be un-encrypted. URL....
Lastly, I could've swore I had found some information indicating that some methods of establishing a connection to SQL can fail when Force Encryption is enabled, as the method doesn't support SSL encryption.
In SQL Server Management Studio, it is possible to do the following:
a) In Object Explorer, connect to a particular SQL Server Database Engine, let's call it X.
b) Use that connection to generate many SQL queries, connected to X, in the right-hand pane.
c) In Object Explorer, connect to a particular SQL Server Database Engine, let's call it Y.
d) Use that connection to generate many SQL queries, connected to Y, in the right-hand pane.
e) Close the connection to X, which was created in step (a), from within Object Explorer.
In the right-hand pane, I am now left with a bunch of queries connected to X, and a similar bunch of queries connected to Y. Any quick way to shut all the queries connected to X, but none of the queries connected to Y?
This question can assume real practical importance if server X is a Live Production Server, and server Y is a Test Server, and my next job of the day is to run a change script against server Y....
I have looked for an option in Management Studio to "Close all queries connected to Server X", but haven't found one.
I have been investigating the number of connections activeinactive to a certain database server and I have stumbled across an application which seems to not be clearing its database connections.For one instance of a client there was >70 sql connections which eventuated from the closing and reopening one 1 screen in the culprut app. Once the application was closed all of the connections are recycled but its evident that within the application itself it is not correctly reusing already existing open connections.
I have raised a point with the main programmer that we need to investigate more into how the application is managingot managing its ADO .NET connections to SQL.
I am starting with doing some reading here URL... and I was hoping to get some more information about the possible impact of excessive sql connections on the SQL Server itself. Our organization is quite lucky in that our SQl Servers are Overspecced given their workload, bearing that in mind I would like to dig a bit deeper to get some stats if I can to highlight the scope of the issue to the managementprogrammers.Our SQL server peaks at 6500 processes and a good 70% of those are due to this applications mis-management of its sql connections.
Hi there,
Here we have got a
asp.net application that was developed when database was
sitting on SQL server 6.5. Now client has moved all of their databases
to SQL server 2000. When the database was on 6.5 the previous
development team has used oledb connections all over. As the databases
have been moved to SQL server 2000 now i am in process of changing the
database connection part. As part of the process i have a login
authorization code.
Private Function Authenticate(ByVal username As String, ByVal password As String, ByRef results As NorisSetupLib.AuthorizationResult) As Boolean
Dim conn As IDbConnection = GetConnection()
Try
Dim cmd As IDbCommand = conn.CreateCommand()
Dim sql As String = "EDSConfirmUpdate" '"EDSConfirmUpdate""PswdConfirmation"
'Dim cmd As SqlCommand = New SqlCommand("sql", conn)
cmd.CommandText = sql
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
NorisHelpers.DBHelpers.AddParam(cmd, "@logon", username)
NorisHelpers.DBHelpers.AddParam(cmd, "@password", password)
conn.Open()
'Get string for return values
Dim ReturnValue As String = cmd.ExecuteScalar.ToString
'Split string into array
Dim Values() As String = ReturnValue.Split(";~".ToCharArray)
'If the return code is CONTINUE, all is well. Otherwise, collect the
'reason why the result failed and let the user know
If Values(0) = "CONTINUE" Then
Return True
Else
results.Result = Values(0)
'Make sure there is a message being returned
If Values.Length > 1 Then
results.Message = Values(2)
End If
Return False
End If
Catch ex As Exception
Throw ex
Finally
If (Not conn Is Nothing AndAlso conn.State = ConnectionState.Open) Then
conn.Close()
End If
End Try
End Function

Just a quick question about connection management. My application willnever need more than 1 or 2 connections about at any given time. Also, I donot expect many users to be connected at any given time. For efficiency, Iwould like to keep connections alive throughout the lifetime of the objectsrequiring them, rather than opening a new connection, executing code andthen closing it again. What is the most efficient way of doing this?Should I perform the open/close or just one open when I create the objectand a close when I dispose of it?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi I have some simple questions of for MS SQL. Say I have a database with a table Called Company. In this table I have Employee's with these columns(EmployeeID<PK>, FirstName, LastName) Now I am inserting some data like this.EmployeeID FirstName, LastName------------------------------------------------------- 1 Bob Smith2 Joe Mitter Now Say I have this situation(this will look weird for this example but for another examples and the stuff I am working on it make sense). Say I have a new Employee Called Jessica White. Jessica must be the second record. So I need to insert it between the 1st and 2nd record. Like I said I am very noob at doing this stuff so I am not sure how I would do it. I first was going to my table and then went to modify. This brought up a blank grid with all my column names. I then started to add all my data in. I found out later to make my life easier I need to enter in certain spots null rows in it to help with formating(otherwise I would have had to figure out a way to do make null rows with c# code). I then went back to this grid and I tried to add a record before the data just like you if you used excel. I quickly found out you can not do that. This resulted me having to recreate the table and reput the all the data back in(this told me I was doing something very very wrong). I was then thinking of writing it with a query and I been playing around with it and still running into problems like say I had a table called test with a coloum called id<PK> and testss(yes bad names just playing around though).So if I did something like this:INSERT INTO testVALUES(2)INSERT INTO testVALUES(1)SELECT * FROM testNow I am trying to figure out how to insert something between rows 1 and 2. Would I have to drop the table or delete all the data and then run a saved copy of my script with the added change or what?My second question is what is a good site that has examples of all the commands(I don't want to read a book on it I have had a oracle sql course and well it was just boring and I did not learn too much.). I think the best way for me to learn is just continue doing my site and picking it up on the file and when I got a problem read about it and ask on the forums. Thanks

I am looking for some ideas on the following DTS challenge: I need to import the data from an Access 97 database into a set of tables(about 25). The location of the database can be anywhere on the users drive(s) and I will need to get the location of the database from a registry setting and use it to define the connection.

We have a case where a user is using Excel sheet to connect the database on SQL2K and generally his connection runs in the upper 150 in numbers. He generally gets more than 150 connections open.
I know that it's not a good thing, but is there a way to limit it or even kill it after it reaches max?
What are the disadvantages of opening too many connections?
I'm getting the classic message "The timeout period elapsed prior to obtaining a connection from the pool" etc when connecting to my SQL Server 2005 Express from a .Net application.
Then I try connecting, simultaneously, from a simple ASP.net thing I wrote just for testing and this works fine. So, then the connection pool can't be full, can it? Or, does each application have its own pool??
Ok, yeah, I'm being lazy...
Any comments?
Hi
I have heard that SQL Server can support upto 10,000 users,
What if my application , connects to the sql & does not do antything then , why does the SQL server slow down with just 700 users.

hi,
have been looking for ages for somewhere that might be able to answer my question so thought i'd try here.
anyhows, my place of work have goldmine 6.7 running on a server. the problem is that some of the client machines seem to be taking 2 connections to the server when logged into goldmine and some only 1.
when looking at the open sessions it shows a second for some users accessing pipesqlquery. all users show this but only some show it as a second connection.
please any ideas

As most of you are aware, when you close a VB.NET connectrion to a SQLserver, the connection doesn't actually drop right then and there.From my tests, using VB.NET 2003 and SQL2K, the connection doesn'ttimeout and drop off for 6 1/2 minutes. How can one force thisconnection to immediately drop off with code?

Hi everybody,
I need a little help...
I created several packages, that after their creation should not be changed again; that's why I created a Package Configuration File in which I set all the Connections I need, so that this is the only file I have to modify.
I set there also the path of the connections for my log file and for my error files (which are both text files), but if I change their paths in the configuration file this change doesn't affect the package, and the path of the log remains the same.
That's an image of one of those packages....
The fact is that I cannot change the ConnectionString of the connection called "log_pkg", but it always remains the same...
How can I resolve this problem??
Thanks everyone
