I have table which consists of images. I am trying to export those images to a folder.
declare @path varchar(100)= 'c:images'
SELECT [PICTURE]
,@path+[PICTURE] AS Path
FROM [A].[dbo].[PICTURE]
I am getting this error: The data types varchar and varbinary(max) are incompatible in the add operator.
I have a requirement to create a package that takes all files in a given folder and adds them to a single archive (.zip) file. I've tried several methods using 7zip and while I can create archives for every file in the directory I can't seem to get them into a single .zip file.
View 9 Replies View Relatedhi everyone,I'm currently developing a website and have a lot of images to use there(obviously :P), until now I have in some tables in my sql server db where exists a column which stores the path to: 'image folder + filename'And my question is: what are the advantages of using binary images in database instead of this approach to the problem, i.e., having images stored in a server folder.Thanks in advance.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI need to load images from folders into a SQL Server table and I have done it successfully for individual images, however I need to load all the names of the folders and sub folders names in separate columns + load all images.
So the folders look like as in the screenshot and the final result of the table in SQL Server should look like the second screenshot.
I want to store Images as binary data in SQL table and compare it each time with a image file I am getting. I've tried below approach but getting error:
DROP TABLE #BLOBTest
CREATE TABLE #BLOBTest
(
TestID int IDENTITY(1,1),
BLOBName varChar(50),
BLOBData varBinary(MAX)
);

Hi Experts,
I have to find the latest file in a folder and export data to a table in sql server.
The code should be something that has to be incorporated into a t-sql stored procedure.
The file name would for example abc_defYYYYMMDD.xls.
would i be able to find the latest file in the folder using the the datestamp (YYYYMMDD) in the filename.
Please note i would have files in other format and names with datestamp attached to it, so the code has to pick specific file for which the file name starts with 'abc_def'
and export data to a table.
Any help would be highly appreciated
this directory is over 2gb

can you delete the contents safely?
I am setting up a database for one contractor who needs to access one of our databases but i need to remove the permission for them to view the security folder so he cant access the SA account and enable it. I was able to deny them the view permission to see all the other databases and hide the system objects but i can still see the security folder and the sa account there where i can disable and enable it.
View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a merge replication. Currently works fine. Publisher & Distributor are on the same server. I need to change the location of the alternate folder for the snapshot files.
I’ll probably just change it through the GUI, but would I use sp_changedistpublisher or sp_changemergepublication if I were scripting everything?
My real concern is the subscribers. Do I have to ‘tell’ the subscribers where the alt folder has been changed to? Do I just run sp_changemergepullsubscription on the subscribers?
I'm, using my script to many location to create folder to save output files and if the folder is removed/not present it can create it without any noise. But the problem is, while I use the same sort of script to check if a folder is present in the sharedpath it will not create it to copy all bkp files from local to remote path works good, but if you delete the folder or rename the exisitng folder and if the below script tries to create the folder it created as "fILE", very interesting. Per IT team they have given SQL Server account the full rights to create/delete/alter folder/files.
Do I need to use seperate script or way to create / alter folders in the sharepath?
SET NOCOUNT ON
Declare @len INT, @i INT, @Left varchar(max), @right varchar(max), @SERVERNAME sysname,@finalServer sysname
declare @rc int, @dir nvarchar(4000)

Declare @extPAth varchar(max)

I wrote the below script to print all folders and files located in the share path. How to extend my script to mention by adding another column whether the file is a folder/file , sort of 0 or 1.
declare @chkdirectory1 varchar(4000) = 'shared_pathfolder';
declare @finalserver3 varchar(4000);
create table #tmp (directory_name varchar(4000))
SET @finalserver3 = '''"DIR ' + @chkdirectory1 + ' /B"''';
--select @finalserver3
--SELECT @finalServer
DECLARE @ExecCmd varchar(100)
--SELECT @ExecCmd = 'EXEC master.dbo.xp_cmdshell ' + char(50) + 'mkdir D:'+ CONVERT(varchar(8), getdate(), 112) + '' + char(50)

The scripts need to be run in order. So script one needs to run first folder in that sub folders after that next second folders etc..
Is there a way to create a bat file that automatically runs all these scripts, in order against, the databases they need to?
The databases that they need to run against have the name of the database at the beginning of the name of the folder.
Please can anybody help me in transferring existing SSIS Packages saved in a shared folder location from development server 2ED to Live server TWD1.
Both has SQL server 2005 running and has visual studio 2005
Currently about 25 SSIS packages are executed from the development server transferring data on Live server TWD1...these ETL process is called from development server but executed on live server.
Now the problem is when i call these packages from the shared folder from live server it crashes.....i need to changes something to shift the whole package to the live server..and execute on live server itself instead of recreating the whole 25 process from scratch.....also i use optimize for many tables ..and run in a single trancastion....so how can i see the mappings of source and destination tables.
Please let me know the process how i can achieve this.
Thanks

View 9 Replies View RelatedI have a request to export some table data to excel and the "notes" column (varchar 255) contains multiple lines separated by CR/LF. when I export to excel, the first record with CR/LF messes up the column alignment in excel, throwing off the format from that point on. how can i export to excel so that it preserves these CR/LF. or if not, how can I remove these characters so that excel can handle it?

Any way to bulk export / import TDE Certs? I've got a bunch of databases that need to be moved to another system. Just about every database is using TDE and was wondering if there was a way to move these certs in a bulk fashion. I've got SQL and Powershell scripts to backup and restore multiple databases, but won't do me any good without the certs.

We are building a portal internal to our org. Here, For one of the option on the portal, we have given each user in our organization an option to upload three images. Iam storing these images in Sql server table columns with datatype image.So, the question is:
1. Is it ok to store the images in sqlserver? Will it add any performance degradation?
2. Is it ok to store the images in folder and store the respective urls in the DB?
Please let us know.
Thanks!

One of my current responsibilities is to export data to 3rd party vendors. Each export can contain many csv files. The exports are all different in terms of what data is being sent.
The way I have it currently setup is each file that needs to be created is a view. An SSIS package gets the data from the view, writes to CSV, and then sftp to 3rd party vendor. This seemed like a good idea at first because the columns are static but the calculations might change. So all I have to do is ALTER VIEW and I don't have to change anything in the package.
Is there a better way of doing this? I was curious to see what other people are doing. What makes it challenging is that all the exports are so different. If they were similar I could have created generic views that cover all the exports instead of each export having its own view. Eventually I'm going to have 100's of views.

I have 2 tables:
1 is with only one field: numerator
2ed is (for example) sales information.
I need to export (using SP) the sales information with unique numerator per line. So,
I need to get the value from table 1 (numerator),
I need to promote the numerator by 1 for every line, and
I need to update the first table (numerator) (as i need to keep it updated for the next run).
At the next run I need to get again the updated numerator from the first table, and so on...

I have two calls to stored procedures that in an SSIS package fails silently. They are simply not executed in production but works fine in test, nothing happens and the sql server agent reports that everything has gone just fine.
In test they have 1 server with db A and B. No issue here.
In prod they have 2 servers with db A and B. On server 1 sql server agent executes a job that includes an SSIS package that on server 2 runs a couple of sp's. That user is db owner on server 2 db B and yet nothing happens. The sp's are not executed.
If I in prod run the job manually then it works, but not when run with the sql server agent account that as said is even db owner.
Not seeing the Review Data Type Mapping Screen in SQL Server Import and Export Wizard?
Is there only a certain version where that screen shows up?
I am trying to import data from an MS Access application to SQL Server and all of the connections are good, but some of the data isn't and if I let it migrate using this tool it crashes on the bad data and there is no data that migrates. The Review Data Type Mapping screen will allow me to bypass the records in error and load the rest. however, I can;t do that if I cannot see the screen.
I dont alot about sql server 2005(Express edition). For debugging purposes i want to copy the whole app_data folder(.mdf & .log files) on the production server to another folder on the same machine(or sometimes to a network folder). So when i copy and try to paste this App_data folder to a new location, i get this error message
"cannot copy ASPNETDB: it is being used by another person or program. close any programs that might be using the file and try again."
After reading the above message, i close visual web developer, stop the website in IIS and stop the SQLExpress service on the server and try again but still get the same message.
So how can i make sure that all the programs accessing these database files are closed such that i'm able able to copy them to a different location.
I know a WMI event watcher can be used to watch for a new file being added to a folder. However, I need to check for new folders being added to an existing folder. I haven't been able to find a post on doing this. Is there a way in WQL to check for a new folder being added instead of a new file? I've used SQL for years, but am new to SSIS.

Ok,
I have a network folder called A
I have a SharePoint (2007) Document Library site called B. Web Client is enabled on the server and B is mapped as a Drive (let's call it Y for this discussion)
I want to move documents in A to B. Easy enough, right? Not so....
I first started by creating a batch file that issues a COPY \A \Y /Y at the command prompt. Viola! Worked Great!
I then moved that command to a SQL Agent job as a CMDExec statement (exact same statement) and attempted to run it.....CRASH! It found the files in A but then said "The system cannot find the path specified"
Ok, so I tried it in SSIS. CRASH! Checked the error log. Same thing...
So I then checked the account under which the SQl Agent was running (special domain account for all our SQL Servers). Thinking it might mater I changed it to run under my name (I'm in Domain admin). I also ensured I had permissions to the SPS 2007 library as well. (I did).
Ran again! CRASH! Same error....
So, I created a batch file , placed thec ommand in the batch file and ran that from the command prompt! Viola! Worked Great.
So, I was thinking of how ingenious I was as I pasted my C:RootCopy.bat into my SQL Agent job. With a big grin on my face I right clicked and picked "Start Job at step".......CRASH! Same error.
Does anyone have any ideas on this ???????????????
Thanks,
Stephen

Im trying to export data from Access into SQL Server using SQL Native Client for the import. I can run the exp/imp just fine when I select maybe 30 tables but when I select 200 the process errors out. Is there a registry setting I could set for the Access for a bigger bugger size???

Have noticed some issues in Sql Sever 2005 SSIS configuration, as documented in the forums here.
Does Sq; Server 2008's SSIS config still have these problems, or is it more stable? : )
