I receive an error message in event log when i try to connect to the Database Server using ODBC on a client machine. The database server is running on Windows 2003 Server Standard Edition and the client machine is Windows XP Professional. Following is the error message from the event log:
2147467259 - [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Login failed for user 'sa' because the account is currently locked out. The system administrator can unlock it.
What causes the error to occur and how to resolve it?Appreciate for your assistence.
I want to write a query to generate a report. I have a date column which will be holding all the business dates. No dates of Saturday and Sunday are allowed. What I am looking for is, I want to get the result of every 5th business day of each month. A month could start with any day. I just want only the 5th business day.
I have a problem that i can't log on sql server as the account is lock out. I don't know why it is locked out as this is the first time i log on. Anybody has this experience? Thank you very much!
My 'sa' account is locked out and the BUILTINAdministrators account does not have the sysadmin role. I removed the sysadmin role from BUILTINAdministrators for security reasons and before I could create a new account with the sysadmin role I fat fingered the sa password and locked it out. How can I get myself out of this mess.
I have been using SQL2000 for a number of years and the company I work for needs a new system so I decided to install SQL2005.
I installed SQL2005 without any problems and set a complex password for SA. I tried to log on and had to make several atempts as I remmebered the password after the SA account got locked out with the following message:
Login failed for user 'sa' because the account is currently locked out. The system administrator can unlock it. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 18486).
The problem I have is I cannot log onto SQL at all as it is not logging on with windows authentication either!
How do I unlock the SA account or do I have to reinstall SQL?
I am running a SQL 2008r2 install while logged onto the server with a local admin account, not a domain account. I am specifying a domain account to run the SQL service. The install fails saying the service account credentials are invalid but I am 99.9% sure they are right.My theory - the local admin account running Setup cannot validate the service account creds against AD. Is it a requirement to run Setup while logged on with a domain account?
I am working on SQL SERVER schemas using a plug-in in SQL developer itself now my requirement is to generate DDL for a table which is part of SQL SERVER schema...
I want to make the ReportServer and Reports pages secured i.e not allow anyone to access these pages via browser.
I login to a machine as user ABC. This user does not have permission on reports. if this user accesses ReportServer or Reports, expected is that access should be denied unless I enter an account that has been given permissions. for e.x. following pages should be secured. http://<reportserver>/Reports http://<reportserver>/Reports/Pages/Report.aspx?ItemPath=%2f<Report_Project>%2f<Report_Name> http://<reportserver>/ReportServer http://<reportserver>/ReportServer?%2f<Report_Project>&rs:Command=ListChildren
Actual result is that I am able to access these pages. When I click on the report I get the error (this is expected) but then user ABC should be shown error on first page itself.
In short, for all the accounts that do not already have permissions on reports, the server should challenge me to enter an account and password. Is there some setting in the configuration file? Any help would be appreciated Thanks in advance!
Our end users is getting below error, when they try to connect to our database:
"Cannot generate SSPI Context."
That is Windows based application and we have done everything like restart our DB Server , reinstall exe in users system, but still issue is same.The issue has occured from when DB Server has restarted and at the same time few users are connected. before that it was working fine. we could not find what is issue.
It might be an old question but wanted to see, if we have any latest techniques (other than bcp).
SELECT Field1, Field2 FROM MyTable
If I want to export the output of the above query to a csv on a network folder? I would like to avoid usage of SSIS package or BCP (as user needs to get additional rights to execute bcp).
I need to generate the week ranges like this format :
Here from date and to date would be picked up from the table but just to make you understand i have hardcoded it but this is the real date which is falling inside the table.
Note : Week should be generated from Monday to Sunday within desired date range
I'm trying to connect to a database using a service account that we got created. The ID is an AD account and was added to the db as such. When I try to connect to the database using the account with the password I get [login failed for domainid]. The DBA mentioned that its setup to use windows auth, however, I can't connect with this service account using windows Auth, due to I'm using to connect via code.
How can I connect to the database from my code using this ID?
I have the ID and pwd in my code to connect with, does the ID have to be setup differently in the Database?
i need to generate documents for customers to sign automatically as sales staff enter their data into SQL. These are invoice style documents. I currently have word templates of the invoice documentation, i just need to be able to add the clients names, address etc into the relevant spaces for them to print off and sign.
I am good with TSQL and writing Stored Procs etc and can easily get the data ready - i just need to find a way to populate the templates in the right places and then save a copy for emailing.
I've been tasked to generate some test data (a few thousand rows) into a new table in a new database. This database is a whole new idea, so I can't write a query to pull pieces of data from other databases. I cannot consider any third party tools, such as what Redgate or Idera has to offer. I can't consider free tools such as what I've found on GitHub. I've been instructed to restrict myself to Visual Studio 2013 and whatever I can get that works within that.
Requirements • ALPHANUMERIC FORMAT – > AA00AA00………..ZZ99ZZ99 Last 8 bytes will alternate between 2 byte alpha/2 byte numeric • Generate from Alphabets – A through Z Numbers -0 to 9 • Generate Unique Sequence (No Duplicates). • Must Eliminate letters I and O
Output Expected • AA00AA00………..ZZ99ZZ99 • Using 24 alphabets & 10 digits , 24*24*10*10*24*24 = 3 317 760 000 records
Below is my Sql Function -
CREATE function [dbo].[SequenceComplexNEW] ( @Id BIGINT ) Returns char(8)
I need to create a script that adds an incrementing suffix to two columns, but restarts based on the value of another column. I found a similar question in the SQL Server 2000 forum, but it doesn't quite fit and also I'm working with SQL Server 2008 R2. The code below both creates a table with test data and tries to carry out the task. If you run this, you will see that the VISITNUM column has a value of UNS in row 4, UNS.1 in row 5 and UNS.2 in row 6. In row 7 it's V200, then in rows 8 and 9 it's UNS.3 for both. The same suffix gets applied to the VISIT column, but of course if I can solve this for VISITNUM then adding the suffix to VIST as well will be easy.
What I need is for row 8 to have UNS and row 9 to have UNS.1. In other words, any time the VISITNUM is UNS several times in a row, I need to add that ".X" suffix, but if a row has something other than UNS, I need to start over again the next time it's UNS again.
There is a SQL Server 2008 R2 SP3 Clustered Instance that has Transactional Replication. It is by no means a large replication setup in terms of data/article count. SQL Server was recently patched to SP3 and is current on Windows 2008 R2 Patches.
When I added a new article to replication (via 2014 SSMS GUI) it seems to add everything correctly (replication tables/procs show the new article as part of the publication). The Publication is set to allow the snapshot to generate for just new articles (setting immediate_sync & allow_anonymous to false).
When the snapshot agent is run, it runs without error and claims to have generated a snapshot of 1 article. However the snapshot folder only contains a folder for the instance (that does have the modified time of the snapshot agent execution) and none of the regular bcp/schema files.
The tables never make it to the subscribers and replication continues on without error for the existing articles. No agents produce any errors and running the snapshot agent w/ verbose output provides no errors or insight into any possible issues.
I have tried:
- dropping/re-adding the article in question.
- Setting up a new Snapshot Folder
- Validated all the settings and configurations
I'm hesitant to reinitialize a subscriber since I am not confident a snapshot can be generated. Also wondering if this is related to the SP3 Upgrade, every few months new articles are added to the publication and this is the first time since the upgrade to SP3 that it has been done.
I have a SQL2008 database, running Standard Edition 64-bit, database owns by sa, connected to Management Studio using Windows Authentication mode. When I tried to generate scripts from a database, I got the following error messages:-
[Operation is not valid due to the current state of the object. (SqlManagerUI)]
which happened at one particular table. I have reviewed this table definitions are normal, and I could select data from it.
I couldn't find any information anywhere relating to this error messages, except that someone got it when they were trying to change the authentication mode or sa password.
I'm having a problem with the generate scripts procedure in Sql Server Express. My database has stored procedures which use views. When I generate the database create script it puts the stored procedures before the views, so that the create script fails when I try to execute it, because the stored procedure can't be compiled until the view is defined. Is there a fix for this or a way around the problem?
Trying to generate a daily KPI report from our SQL server. I do not have access to write any functions. In the "start date" and "end date" section what numerical value would I enter to give me the equivalent of CURRENT_DATE ()?
I have been running a script in SQL Server 2000 as sa also as a Active Directory user who has administrator rights (I tested both approaches SQL Server then Windows Authentication) in Query Analyser which grants execute rights to the stored procedures within the database instance and Query Analyser does not give any errors when I run the script. I have made sure that each transaction has a go after it. I then return to Enterprise Manager, check the rights (I apply them to roles so that when we create another SQL Server user we just grant him/her rights to the role) and discover that the role has not been granted the rights. I seems to be occurring only with 2 of the procedures. Is there a known bug that might be causing this?
Help with query: I currently cannot be alerted by SQL Mail so I would like to take the script that was generated by SQL server and using the store procedure sp_sqlsmtpmail to generate a email using smtp server to alert me. The store procedure does work. I would like to know if this is possible.
Thanks

I recently enabled log shipping on our production database, and I had initially accepted the default of 72 hours to delete copied logs. Well, i am running out of space quick, and I need to edit it to something like 6 hours.
When I try to disable log shipping in order to recreate it, or if I try to edit the secondary server settings when I am logged in as SA, or my windows account which has the sysadmin role assigned, I get an error that says:
Only members of the sysadmin fixed server role can perform this operation. Error 21089.
I've restarted the sql service, disabled and enabled the permission on my account, but for the life of me, i cannot get this to work!
