SQL Database Schema Sync
We have development and production databases, when we change database schema in development database how can I synchronize it to production without creating data problems in production, is this possible in SQL2005? Or any external tool I can use?
I am using a merge publication set to synchronize schema changes. Why am I getting the following message when I try to sync after having added columns in the publication database using ALTER TABLE statements?
The schema definition of the destination table ... in the subscription database does not match the schema definition of the source table in the publication database. Reinitialize the subscription without a snapshot after ensuring that the schema definition of the destination table is the same as the source table.
Also, why doesn't reinitializing the subscription with @upload_first = false not fix the problem?
Locally I develop in SQL server 2005 enterprise. Recently I recreated my db on the server of my hosting company (in sql server 2005 express).I basically recreated the tables and copied the data in it.I now receive the following error when I hit the DB:The 'System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider' requires a database schema compatible with schema version '1'. However, the current database schema is not compatible with this version. You may need to either install a compatible schema with aspnet_regsql.exe (available in the framework installation directory), or upgrade the provider to a newer version.I heard something about running aspnet_regsql.exe, but I dont have that access to the DB. Also I dont know if this command does anything more than creating the membership tables and filling it with some default data...Any other solutions/thought on what this can be?Thanks!
Hello everybody!I'm using ASP.NET 3.5, MSSQL 2005I bought virtual web hosting .On new user registrations i have an error =(The 'System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider' requires a database schema compatible with schema version '1'.

You may need to either install a compatible schema with aspnet_regsql.exe (available in the framework installation directory), or upgrade the provider to a newer version. On my virtual machine it work fine but on web hosting i have an error =(What can you propose to me?
we currently have a web server/db on-site and a similar backup machine across the country. we're using a pretty bad backup strategy. we zip up a backup file, thats done on the main server every night, then ftp over to the back up server then run a restore.
lately ive been having problems with the main server. i would like to have the machines sync'd up as close as possible.
ive searched the threads and noticed replication and log shipping to be the most practical, but im assuming most of the machines are on the same domain.
what would be my best bet for machines connected over the internet, no vpn?
also the db on the main machine get queried/inserts all day from 7am - 6:30pm

Scenario: In general user will take database backup from database server to local system. User perform some changes to his local database based on his requirement. Again user connects to database server and click on update, local database should update to server database by informing each record status to the user. ex: record 1 updated / call closed do you want to update?
Here local database is going to be Pocket pc database and server database is on SQLDatabase. Can any one suggest best way to implement this feature in Windows Pocket pc, c#. I would appreciate your reply.
hi. I have two database( one on local system and another on my host ) there are same in table and stored procedure. i just want to sync data between there in my application ( ...on button on click event ! ). please help me to do it. tnx
I'm working on an application that will be running on two or more machines. Each machine is logging data to a local SQL Compact database. I would like to make these two computers sync the data with eachother, but I am unsure what the best method is to transfer data between machines in a table format. I think XML would work well, but there may be something easier, so I thought I'd ask. Do I want to use sockets to do this, or is there another type of connection that would work better?
All PCs will know the IP addresses of their peers. I forsee each PC having a server thread that is listening all the time. Each PC also has a client that checks to see if it can connect to the server on the other side. It then requests certain data, which the server part sends. Does this sound right?
The rest of the app is in Visual Basic 2008 Express.
I have a software written in C#, using RDA to sync access database from desktop. But it is tricky that some time during "Pull" data from SQL Server Agent, my PDA tell me "A request to send data to the computer running IIS has failed. For more information, see HRESULT".
This also happening when I try to unplug the ethernet cable from my desktop however the push and pull actions did not required to go through internet.
Here are part of my codes m_intdb = new SqlCeRemoteDataAccess("http://desk01:1024", "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=c:\inttemp.mdb; Jet OLEDB:System Database=C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Microsoft\Access\System.MDW");
m_intdb.InternetUrl = "http://desk01:1024"; m_intdb.LocalConnectionString = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=c:\inttemp.mdb; Jet OLEDB:System Database=C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Microsoft\Access\System.MDW""; m_intdb.Pull("pulltest", "SELECT * from pullTest", "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data Source=c:\inttemp.mdb; Jet OLEDB:System Database=C:\Documents and Settings\user\Application Data\Microsoft\Access\System.MDW", RdaTrackOption.TrackingOff, "Err_PullTest");
and the error message look like A request to send data to the computer running IIS has failed. For more information, see HRESULT.
I'm working with a legacy database whose structure I cannot change. I'm building a web-based editor for one of the DB's tables. This table has a Primary Key called "Master_Idx" that is an Identity (autonumber) field.To start, I query the DB and populate a data table which is cached. This is used to "feed" the web form. Any additions, changes, and deletions are reflected in this cached table.The user then has the flexibility to press Save at any time, which ensures that the database is modified accordingly.Here's my question:When new records are added, I assign them a Master_Idx value, the first of which was calculated to be 1 + the Max(Master_Idx) value when the editing session started. But when I insert these records back into the database it's possible that another user might have also been doing similar editing (of different records from the same table), so there's no guarantee that the Master_Idx values in the data table will be identical to those in the DB. When I insert a record from the cached table back into the DB, what technique can I use to check what value was assigned to the Master_Idx? If it's not the same as in the cached table then I need to update it locally in a few places.I hope all of this makes sense but if it doesn't then let me know and I'll explain it in another way.Robert W.
hello everyone, i am developing a application using C#and .NEt compact framework. for that i need to sync pda data (in xml format) with the remote database server(SQL) and vice versa. please help me out thanks in advance.
I've stepped into a new environment and have never dealt with multiple data files on user databases only with Temp db.What would be the best way to get all my data files in sync. I have done this on databases that aren't that big in size or off in size by a lot. Here is what I have
How Sync the user and password from my Active Directory, to a SQL Database. Actually, my environment have a database with users and password added, my custom applications uses it like a passport, but now I want to use Active Directory to control these users, but I can't use windows authentication in my old apps. I was reading about Forefront Identity Manager to do this, but I need a free solution. The Sharepoint database sync user credentials with AD?
I want to have an application like a web front end on a pda where customer details can be added into a database. Then later the user connects to the internet and sync the pda database with the database on the server. I want the infomation from the pda database to update the data on the server database.
I know this is a big question but any help would be appreciated.

I currently use Access and have found that I need to migrate to SQL Server. I need setting it up.
Currently, I have multiple computers (home, office, laptop, etc.). On each of these computers, I have a folder which syncs via Dropbox. In this folder, I have my Access database which allows me to read/write to the Access database from any computer, and these changes are automatically synced to all the other computers via Dropbox.
I have installed the SQL Server database in the Dropbox folder then installed Management Studio on each computer. But only the computer which did the database install can link to the the SQL Server database. The other Management Studios cannot see the database.
Is there a way to achieve what I am after or is this a limitation of SQL Server? I do not want to have to manage a network or anything.
Hi, I have compact sql databases which will be local on multiple users devices. Due to space constraints, for one of the tables i have had to use auto incrementing integer which works fine for the local database but i would like to merge all of the users databases into a global database. The table format can be seen below:
Code SnippetCREATE TABLE Players ( ID UNIQUEIDENTIFIER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY, FirstName NVARCHAR(32), LastName NVARCHAR(32) );
The Players table will merge fine as GUIDs are used. However, how will the sync capabilities of compact SQL handle the sessions table? When it pushes the local data to the remote database will it change the Sessions.ID column to a unique field (as no doubt lots of people will have 1, 2, 3 in their local databases and the global database must have a unique ID), and then transfer this changed ID back to the local database? Furthermore, if it changes the Sessions.ID column during the merge it will also need to update the SessionDetail.SessionID foreign key to maintain referential integrity, is this also handled?
So my question is, how much of this sync and data merge is automated and are there any good examples or pointers for my scenario? I cannot reasonably use a GUID for Session.ID as there will be lots of SessionDetail entries and the size would be far too much.
I recently added a new user to my database. Now I want to delete that user, but I keep getting the error above. What do I need to do to delete my recently added user?
An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted) Query execution failed for data set 'TestID'. (rsErrorExecutingCommand) For more information about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors
The log file reads:
---> Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.ReportProcessingException: Query execution failed for data set 'TestID'. ---> System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: SELECT permission denied on object 'TableID', database 'Database', schema 'dbo'.
***Background***
General Users got an error message when trying to access any reports we have created. All admin have no problems with the reports. Users (Domain Users) are given rights (Browser) to the reports and the Data Sources (Browser) and yet cannot view the reports.
An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted) Cannot create a connection to data source 'DS2'. (rsErrorOpeningConnection) For more information about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors
I'll add this from the report logs...
w3wp!processing!1!3/20/2007-11:43:25:: e ERROR: Data source €˜DS2€™: An error has occurred. Details: Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.ReportProcessingException: Cannot create a connection to data source €˜DS2€™. ---> System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Cannot open database €œDatabase€? requested by the login. The login failed. Login failed for user €˜DOMAINUsername€™.
The user has rights via a local group to the report and data source (Browser rights) and the local group has been added as a SQL login.
I gave rights to the databases themselves instead of just to SQL and the error changed (Ah-ha...progress, but why!?!?)
I need to export a database, x, of a server, X, to another database, y, of a server, Y and I need export the database schema only, not include the data. Does anyone know how to do that? Many thanks for replying.
Trying to get my hands around all the new security features of SQL Server 2005. In Management Studio did something I don't know how to undo. I added a database role ReadOnlyRole and clicked the box next to db_datareader in the owned schemas box. Then I tried to remove the ReadOnlyRole and could not. How do I undo what I did? Is it possible?
The below is the TSQL that generates the my issue.
Use [master] go create database [test] go
USE [test] GO
CREATE ROLE [ReadOnlyRole] GO
USE [test] GO
ALTER AUTHORIZATION ON SCHEMA::[db_datareader] TO [ReadOnlyRole] GO
here is my problem. I have to rebuild database after crash. there is no backup. So I did a bcp to get data from. But I do not have the original database so my question is how to get the full schema off the data base, tables,colomns,stored procedures etc...
Hi. I would like to retrieve the table names of a database, the column names nad its contraints of each table in a database.. How can this be achieved???
We currently have a product in which each client has their own Database. We adjust the connection when a user for that client logs into the system. This system has continued to grow and a good pace, but we have come to a point where failover is taking too long.
Refactoring the Database to handle multiple sites in a single database is not an option because of the time it would take to make the change. So, we are looking for another way in which this could be handle. One idea is to take multiple clients and place them in a single database using a schema to seperate them. (ex. Client A = server1.db1.schema1, Client B = server1.db1.schema2, etc).
Is there another option that would be better, or what kind of performance can we expect if we follow this path? Or, is there a way to decrease the failover time (it appears the problem is the startup of the database on the failover server)?
We have a RS 2000 server with a over a hundred reports, and about half as many weekly and monthly subscriptions. In reply to my request to upgrade to RS2005, the boss asked me today for a compete list of the reports, who subscribes to them, and their delivery frequency.
He was not interested in paying for a VB or C# development effort with the SOAP API that it would require to obtain a simple list from a SQL server database, since he already has SQL programmers on staff.
So how can I get this list? Anyone know of any demo code out there?
Is there a way for VS2005 to export the database schema of a .mdf into a .sql file? Preferably from a Web PRoject, not a Database Project, but right now I am anything but picky, so whatever works. Thanks.
Hi all, I am doing a replication of a SQL Server 2005 database from one server to another server, everything worked fine. Now, when I added some fields to this database, the replication stopped. can I do replication of a schema of a SQL database? how? Should the replication work even if I add some fields.
Can anyone help me to figure out how to generate the SQL Script that can produce the same database schema with the existing database?
I have tried the "Generate SQL Script" tool. However, it only creates the object such as tables, stored procedures, triggers and etc. I still have to create the database first in order to run that script. I have an existing database that has a 2.7 GB size (let's called this ABC Database). In a different server, I would like to create the same database with the ABC DB without having to restore the ABC DB. Bottom line, I would like to see the script creates the database along with all stored procedures, triggers and the size of the database will be 2.7 GB. Is it possible?
