Seems Like Permissions Issue With OLE DB Connections
Jun 14, 2006
Hello,
I've created quite few packages using OLE DB connections with dataflow destination as SQL Server Destination. The OLE DB connections using a windows login works fine when connecting to SQL Server Destination table(data flow destination) . The OLE DB connections using "sa" fails when connecting to the exact same table to "SQL Server Destination" but it works fine with "OLE DB Desination" even though it is the exact same underlining table.
Why is the "sa" login not working with SQL Server Destination table (data flow destination) in my OLE DB connection?
Thank you

I'm looking for the correct permissions to grant a user the ability to be able to drop all connections on a database.
The following code throws an exception:
Dim srv As New Server(SqlServerName)
If srv.Databases.Contains(siDBName) Then
srv.KillAllProcesses(siDBName) '== the srv.KillDatabase will not work here, we must kill the processes first
Dim db As Database = srv.Databases(siDBName)
db.Drop()
End If
Throws the Exception:
Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.FailedOperationException:
Drop all active database connections failed for Server 'xxxx'.
The user does not have permission to perform this action.
This code DOES NOT throw an exception when run as an Administrator.
Any Ideas?

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

Return conn
End Function
in the above GetConnection() method i
have commented out the .net dataprovider for oledb and changed it to
.net dataprovider for SQLconnection. this function works fine. But in
the authenticate method above at the line
Dim ReturnValue As String = cmd.ExecuteScalar.ToString
for some reason its throwing the below error.
Run-time exception thrown : System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException - @password is not a parameter for procedure EDSConfirmUpdate.
If i comment out the
Dim conn As IDbConnection = New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection
and uncomment the .net oledb provider,
Dim conn As IDbConnection = New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection
then it works fine.
I also have changed the webconfig file as below.
<!--<add
key="Common" value='User ID=**secret**;pwd=**secret**;Data
Source="ESMALLDB2K";Initial Catalog=cj_common;Auto
Translate=True;Persist Security Info=False;Provider="SQLOLEDB.1";'
/>-->
<add key="Common" value='User ID=**secret**;pwd=**secret**;Data Source="ESMALLDB2K";Initial Catalog=cj_common;' />
Please help. Thanks in advance.

Using SQL Server 2k5 sp1, Is there a way to deny users access to a specific column in a table and deny that same column to all stored procedures and views that use that column? I have a password field in a database in which I do not want anyone to have select permissions on (except one user). I denied access in the table itself, however the views still allow for the user to select that password. I know I can go through and set this on a view by view basis, but I am looking for something a little more global.

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?

Hi 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

Very strange event. Installed new machine into NT 4 network, which has a PDC and a BDC. We have copies of all SQL databases on both the PDC and the BDC. I installed SQL 7 on new workstation. Throught Control Panel/ODBC connections I can reach the SQL files on bith the PDC and BDC. Howver when I try to use Enterprise Manager, I can connect to the tables on the PDC, but not the BDC. SQL lists both machines in the server group, but only allows me to access tables on PDC! Here is the Event information that I recived on the BDC:
The computer IVR1 tried to connect to the server NTBACKUPSERVER using the trust relationship established by the MASSCOM domain. However, the computer lost the correct security identifier (SID) when the domain was reconfigured.
How do I fix this?

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.
Thanks

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??

Hi

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.

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

Hello,
This might not be the right forum, but I'll go ahead and ask anyways -
How does SQL server's per seat/user licensing work ? What I'm hoping to find out is that - if some one has procured a 2 user/seat license - will the number of connections that the two users are allowed to open be limited to 2 ?
Or can the two users open any number (reasonable number) of connections ? I'm asking this in the context of the possibility of having multiple connections service our desktop application. Or am I tied to having a maximum of one connection per client/user by virtue of the licensing restrictions ?
Thanks,
Avinash

Forgive me if this is the wrong forum, but it does have to do with data access. Just a quick question: When using an ADO Component /Object to connect to a database, C# or whatever, that connection that is established - How likely is it that data being retrieved from the database is intercepted, is that channel encrypted/secured, and if not for either questions, how do i secure that channel?

HiI have written the following function public System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader ExcuteReader(string strQuery, string strConnection) { System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand myCommand; System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader myReader; myCommand = new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand(strQuery, new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection(strConnection)); myCommand.Connection.Open(); myReader = myCommand.ExecuteReader(); return myReader; }to return a datareader for me but right now I am facing the problem that it seems this function isn't closing the connection by itself which is resulting in an error saying "Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to
obtaining a connection from the pool. This may have occurred because
all pooled connections were in use and max pool size was reached" and if I close it manually I will lose the data in the readerso are there any suggestions of what I should do?thank you

Hi.
We have developed as quite simple ASP.Net webpage that fetches a number of information from a SQL 2005 database. We are having some problems though, becuase of a firewall that is beetween the webserver and the SQL server, and I think this is because of bad code from my part. I'm not that experiensed yet, so I'm sure that there is much to learn.
Usualy when I do a query against a SQL database, I do something like this:
Function GO_FormatRecordBy(ByVal intRecordBy As Integer) Dim dbQueryString As String Dim dbCommand As OleDbCommand Dim dbQueryResult As OleDbDataReader dbQueryString = "SELECT Name FROM tblRegistrators WHERE tblRegistratorsID = '" & intRecordBy & "'" dbCommand = New OleDbCommand(dbQueryString, dbConn) dbConn.Open() dbQueryResult = dbCommand.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior.CloseConnection) dbQueryResult.Read() dbConn.Close() dbCommand = Nothing Return dbQueryResult("Name") End Function
Now, lets say that I have a DataList that I populate with Integer values, and I want to "resolve" the from another table, then i do a function like the one above. I guess that this means that I open and close quite alot of connections against the database server when I have a large tabel. Is there any better way of doing this? Chould one open a database connection globaly in lets say the ASA fil? Whould that be a better aproch?
When I added the CommandBehavior.CloseConnection to the ExecuteReader statment, I noticed that it was a bit faster, and I think there was fewer connections in the database, so maby there is more to the "closing connections" then I usualy do.
Any tips on this?
Best reagrds,Johan Christensson

Hi all, In a select sql statement, I have to query 2 databases from 2 different servers. The only way I found to do this, is to call OPENDATASOURCE like this :<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:bdConnectionString1 %>" SelectCommand="SELECT * FROM [Table1] t1 left join OPENDATASOURCE('SQLOLEDB','Data Source=servername;Initial Catalog=xxx;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=xxx;Password=xxx').dbname.dbo.table2 t2 on t1.id = t2.id"> </asp:SqlDataSource>My question is the following :Is there a way to connect to the second server without using the full server declaration into the sql statement ? For information, the server connection is already declare into my web.config like that :<add name="bdConnectionString2" connectionString="Data Source=servername;Initial Catalog=xxx;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=xxx;Password=xxx" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />so is there a way to use 'bdConnectionString2' directly ?If not, is there a way to connect to the second server without entering informations like User ID and Password ? My problem being that I'm not sure it's safe to send this informations directly from the asp.net page. Thank you

Hey,
MSDE 2000 allows 25 concurrent connections.
If these are all used up, and a 26th connection comes in. What happens? is the connection rejected? or does it sit in a queue, waiting to be given a connection?

Hey all, not sure if this is even possible but is there a way to connection an SQL server with ASP.NET using my username and password as the trusted connection? As I am a trusted connection but the ASP.NET working process isnt. Anything can be done about this apart from addeing the ASP.NET account as a trusted connection?

How do I set up a job so that I close all open database connections? I think we have a leak in our code which causes our DB to go down (max connections used) roughly once every month, so we just restart the SQL server. Until we can find the exact problem I'd like to do this.
For simplicities sake let's say my database name is just "test."
Thank you.
