SQL 2012 :: Query Did Not Run / Or Database Table Could Not Be Opened
Dec 15, 2014
I have a view saved on server - mhsvi-datawarehousedatawarehouse.This view, in it's TSQL connects to a databasethat is set up as a linked server. That server is mhsvi-sql2008ainstance1.When I try to add the view to Excel in order to automatically refresh for users as a report - I get the following error - (I get it as well)
The query did not run, or the database table could not be opened.Check the database server or contact your database administrator. Make sure the external database is available and hasn't been moved or reorganized, then try the operation again.I have access to the database where the view is saved and the database that the TSQL calls.
I have a set of data spread across a number of tables regarding stock market data. An example of this follows:
Market Capitalization...
Date CompA CompB 01/01/11 100 5 02/01/11 102 4
Share Price....
Date CompA CompB 01/01/11 100 100 02/01/11 101 99
Event Data...
Date Company 01/01/11 CompA 02/01/11 CompB
Pretty simply, I need a way to retrieve the market capitalisation and share price data based on the event data. So for instance I say 'oh, there is an event on the 01/01/11 involving company A, the market capitalisation on this day was 100, then for the next event it was 4 for company B.
I can also transpose the data so that the company name is in the rows and the dates in the columns for the market cap and share price tables, but this leads to the issue that when I try and get the data, I don't know how to query the correct company for that date.
For instance: SELECT Event.Date, Event.Company FROM Event
how do I now say.....
SELECT MarketCapitalisation.Column WHERE Column = Event.Company AND MarketCapitalisation.Date = Event.Date.
I have played around with a few basic joins, but I am having issue with the principle of that second to last line of SQL (so only getting the correct column).
I still have a copy of the data in excel so can flip things around as needed, but that would only mean that I would have the issue of WHERE Column = Event.Date instead of Event.Company.
I am trying to build a query which will be used in an automated report to calculate failure rates of systems based on cases opened through support. Here is where I am stuck. Some systems may have multiple cases opened within the same span of another cases however we would consider this one failure:
System ACase12013-07-11 13:17:09.0002013-07-15 12:05:03.000 System ACase22013-07-12 16:27:50.0002013-07-12 16:29:12.000 System ACase32013-07-12 17:30:32.0002013-07-12 17:40:11.000 System ACase42013-07-12 19:00:24.0002013-07-12 19:04:14.000 System ACase52013-10-01 18:02:23.0002013-10-01 18:11:26.000
Lets say System A generated those 5 cases however Case 2,3 and 4 all happened within the same period as Case 1 so those 4 cases should count as one failure so my end result should be
System ACase12013-07-11 13:17:09.0002013-07-15 12:05:03.000 System ACase52013-10-01 18:02:23.0002013-10-01 18:11:26.000
And that system should show me 2 failures. I was thinking of using a temp table but not sure if that is possible as I am stumped on how to compare the dates to be able to validate if they fall within the range of an older case and whether or not to include them into the new Temp Table.
I'am doing functionality test on DTS packages and saving my DTS packages to meta data services instead of saving them as local packages. We would like to see what information would be provided by saving them this way, but when we try to open the meta data browser (the 3rd icon under DTS) we get the following error:
An error occurred while trying to access the database information. The msdb database could not be opened.
Hi all,We recently upsized two Microsoft Access Databases to SQL. We'reusing an ADP (2002) as the front end.All the conversion issues have been resolved, except for one:Whenever we insert a record into a table, the table isn't sorted byprimary key like I would expect. Instead, the record can be found atthe end of the table. This makes finding a particular record(especially as time goes on) very difficult.I've tried eliminating all indexes except for the primary key, andalso writing AFTER INSERT triggers, but the table still does not sortcorrectly.Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!Matt
I'm working on a SQL Server 2005 mirroring database test.The idea is to stop main DB server and activate the standby being mirrored (pretendng that principal DB Server is down)
Mirror works fine. But for the test I do the following:
- Stop the principal SQLSERVER - Connect to the standby server and execute the followng:
Hello,Could you explain me please the following error:"Database 'DemoDotNET' cannot be opened due to inaccessible files orinsufficient memory or disk space. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 945)"I have checked: free disk space is large enough, I have much enoughmemory, other files in the directory are accessible.Here is tail of ERRORLOG:2006-06-12 21:19:55.68 Logon Error: 18456, Severity: 14, State:16.2006-06-12 21:19:55.68 Logon Login failed for user 'PCRobert'.[CLIENT: <local machine>]2006-06-12 21:20:43.39 Server Server resumed execution afterbeing idle 1 seconds: user activity awakened the server.

I opened SQL Server management studio and tried to connect with the local database and received the error message:
Database 'msdb' cannot be opened. It has been marked suspect.....
I have pasted the only error from the event log I could find below, but it doesn't mean much to me.
In the event I can't find what the problem is, and not being a database administrator, can anyone tell me what I can do to get back in working order without messing up all the databases in my SQL Server 2005. I'm afraid I only have a MASTER backup from several months ago, and am afraid if I use this, I will loose the latest data. I'm a novice, and do not understand the relationship of the master/msdb/model databases to my core custom databases. Can I do some sort of master rebuild without affecting the other databases I have?
I have tried sp_resetstatus but this didn't fix the problem, but it did enable me to actually connect to the SQL server instance so I could access all the other databases.
Many thanks Gerard
Event log error detail:
The log scan number (152:284:1) passed to log scan in database 'msdb' is not valid. This error may indicate data corruption or that the log file (.ldf) does not match the data file (.mdf). If this error occurred during replication, re-create the publication. Otherwise, restore from backup if the problem results in a failure during startup.
When I try the open the report file, I got the following error message. Database 'ReportServer$SQLExpressTempDB' cannot be opened due to inaccessible files or insufficient memory or disk space. See the SQL Server errorlog for details. Anyony have ideas to fix this error?
Can anyone point out what's wrong with the following script? I wanted to print all the LOGFILE names in all databases which are not in SIMPLE recovery model. Thanks in advance.

Greetings, I have just arrived back into the country (NZ) and back into ASP.NET. I am having trouble with the following:An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file (file location).../Database.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share. It has only begun since i decided i wanted to use IIS, I realise VWD comes with its own localhost, but since it is only temporary, i wanted a permanent shortcut on my desktop to link to my intranet page. Anyone have any ideas why i am getting the above error? have searched many places on the internet and not getting any closer. Cheers ~ J
I have been playing with a Standard Version of VS 2005 and SSE 2005 and I just cannot get these two to interact together well. I am sure it is a noob problem but I have seen this error addressed on this forum and I am just not getting it. Here is exactly what I am doing.
I want to create a database within SSE using the Management Studio. Then, I want to connect to it with VS2005. Both SSE and VS2005 are local. I just cant seem to get this to work.
I always seem to get this error "An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataSecond.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share."
One thing... I create the website with Location: HTTP. I don't even know anymore why I do this.. I think because I like to be able to pull up a browser and get to my app. Other than that I am doing nothing special. However, I get the above error when I hit F5 to run the app inside VS2005.
Is there someplace where a complete noob can find a thorough and simple covering of this? Again, I have read through some of the previous posts on this and I don't understand too many of them and it seems as if there are at least 13 causes of which I don't know which one I have. Help!
If you are having trouble accessing Meta Data Services on W2k3 and SQL 2000 and get the error that the "msdb database could not be opened" I found that hot fix 912812 on the operating system is the culprit. Remove it and Meta Data goes back to working, although I am being asked to approve the ActiveX control every time the page refreshes.
Hope this helps somebody, to took me long enough to track it down.
If anyone has a resolution to the ActiveX question I'd love to know the answer.
but after the assignment the LocalConnectionString is different from ConnectionStringWithoutCredentials, there are much more ssce parameters.
What I don't understand is:
why I'm getting this error even after closing the connection ?
Since the error report [32] the ssce conflicting parameters shoud be AUTO_SHRINK_THRESHOLD, FLUSH_INTERVAL and MAX_DATABASE_SIZE
I tried to cut & paste the same values from LocalConnectionString into app.config connection string, at first It seemed to work, but now I got the same error.
how do I get the variables in the cursor, set statement, to NOT update the temp table with the value of the variable ? I want it to pull a date, not the column name stored in the variable...
create table #temptable (columname varchar(150), columnheader varchar(150), earliestdate varchar(120), mostrecentdate varchar(120)) insert into #temptable SELECT ColumnName, headername, '', '' FROM eddsdbo.[ArtifactViewField] WHERE ItemListType = 'DateTime' AND ArtifactTypeID = 10 --column name declare @cname varchar(30)
To avoid locking/blocking, or in transaction scope, we are trying make a common practice of writing coide for update commands in our all SPs based on primary key columns in where clause. I have a following scenario...
UPDATE [dbo].[TL_CST_Locker_Issuance] SET [isActive] = 0 WHERE LockerIssuanceId IN (SELECT LockerIssuanceId
[Code] ...
What is the better approach and should be followed to avoid locks and gain performance or best approach.
I have tried to attatch a database ,created by SQL server Express within a C# application , in SQL server 2005 Enterprise edition, but the following error message appears:
-----------------------------
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio ------------------------------

The database 'E:X.MDF' cannot be opened because it is version 611. This server supports version 607 and earlier. A downgrade path is not supported. Could not open new database 'E:X.MDF'. CREATE DATABASE is aborted. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 948)
------------------------------
so , how can I solve this problem , I need to reed the data resides in the tables of 'X' database , how can I do it?? please help me.
I am doing sp tuning. It has several lines. SO I divided into several small queries and executed individually and check the execution plans. In one small query, I found table scan is happening. That query is basically retrieving all columns from a table but the table doesn't have any pk or Indexes. So is it better to create non-clustered index to remove table sca.
I have a table named 'DepartmentItem' which is designed with hierarchy structure. The column 'ParentId' from table DepartmentItem indicates parent-child relationship and department root among records. I have written and run a user-defined function I use recursive approach, but the function runs slowly.
My question: is there a better way to query that hierarchy table instead of using recursive?
** The current user-defined function that is written using recursive:
CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fnGetDepartmentTree ( @departmentItemId int ) RETURNS TABLE AS RETURN with DepartmentItemTree(DepartmentItemId , DepartmentItemTypeId , ParentId, ItemOrder, Level)
[code].....
** And definition of table 'DepartmentItem' :
DepartmentItemId int IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, ParentId int NULL, -- Each department root starts when this column is NULL or the current row is department root. If it is not NULL then the current row has ParentId whose record has DepartmentItemId = ParentId of the current row (see more below) IsActive bit NOT NULL DEFAULT ((1)),
I have query that doesn't even register a time when running it. But when I add the lines that are commented out in the code below, it takes between 20 and 30 seconds! When I run the code for functions directly,I know when I include it like this, it loses the Indexing capabilities?
SELECT ----, ISNULL(CAST(NULLIF(dbo.ufnGetRetail(I.ISBN13),0.00) AS VARCHAR(20)), 'N/A') RetailPrice ----, ISNULL(CAST(NULLIF(SP.LocalPrice,0.00) AS VARCHAR(20)),'on request') LocalPrice
[code]...
How to have the functions included but have the query response time come down?
I have query which is used to dynamically insert value but not working. We are trying to get all table names and insert dynamically to all tables by looping through table names.
declare @a varchar(max),@i int; declare @table table(rno int, name varchar(max)) declare @b varchar(max) insert into @table select row_number() over( order by table_name) rno, table_name from INFORMATION_SCHEMA.tables declare @tblname varchar(max)
I have a table (ScriptTable) which holds a groupID Nvarchar(10) ,SQLStatement Nvarchar (150)
Table Fields = GroupID SQLStatement 1234 Select CUSTNO, CUSTNAME,CUSTADDRESS from custtable where customerNo = 'AB123' 9876 Select CUSTNO, CUSTNAME,CUSTADDRESS from custtable where customerNo = 'XY*'
What I need is to take each select statement in turn and add the data into a temp table. I can use any method but it needs to be the most efficient. There can also be a varying number of select statements to run through each time my job is run.
I wan to print out the dynamic query result so that i can use as a script for some tasks.This is the scenario wher i got stuck, i am not able to print out the result as it return only the last value because of OUTPUT param limitation
Is there any way to print all the 3 INSERT stmt.
IF OBJECT_ID ('tempdb.dbo.#temp') IS NOT NULL DROP TABLE #temp CREATE TABLE #temp (Command varchar(8000)) INSERT INTO #temp SELECT 'INSERT INTO Test1(column1,column2)values(1,2)' UNION ALL SELECT 'INSERT INTO Test2(column1,column2)values(1,2)'
I have created a table(T1) from select query result, that Select query is parameterised. Now I need to update the select query table(T1) based on the result every time.
Below is my Query:
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[RPT_Cost_copy] SELECT MEII.*, SIMM.U_SP2DC, UPPER(SIMM.U_C3C2) AS GRP3,sb.cost, PREV.Z1, PREV.Z3, SB.Z2, SB.Z4,SIMM.U_C3DC1 AS FAM INTO T1 FROM (SELECT a.meu, a.mep2, SUM(a.mest) as excst FROM mei as A WHERE a.myar=@yr and a.mprd=@mth AND LTRIM(A.MCU) <> '' AND LTRIM(A.MRP2) <> ''
