When I create a new database from Enterprise Manager (right click on
databases > New Database) I noticed that I am not prompted to create a
password or user name. Can I take it then that all databases under the
same local group will have the same password and user name?
I have tied to access the newly created database using the same
password and username but haven't had any luck.
I have installed WebMatrix and MSDE and have been able to successfully make a connection from WebMatrix to MSDE. I am used to using SQL Server with Enterprise Manager but I do not have that available to me right now so I'm using MSDE instead. I followed the setup instructions on the WebMatrix tutorial and setup MSDE with an SA password. I would now like to change the password to something else. Is there a command that I can use to do that? There is no Enterprise Manager so I'm kind of stumped. Thanks in advance for your help.
What are the exact requirements implied by the sql 2005 option:
"Password Must Meet Complexity Requirements "
TIA,
Barkingdog
P.S. I found this one:
-Cannot contain all or part of the username -Must be at least 6 characters long -Contain 3 of the 4 following character groups - A to Z - a to z - 0 to 9 - Special Characters i.e. ! ^ $ *
and I have also found
"At least 7 characters in length"
Combines letters. numbners, and symbolds
Is not a dicitonary word, name of a command, person's name or user's account name
During an install of SQL Server 2005 Express setting the sa password does not work consistently. The install is being run as administrator and I am using an .ini file to pass the settings,
and while most times it works correctly, occasionally, maybe 4 out of 10 times it fails to set the password and I have been unable to find any warnings or errors in the logs it generates.
We are coming up on release and this is causing us some real problems. Does anyone have any ideas, something I could look at?
sometimes the sa password is set correctly, while other times it is not. There does not appear to be any particular environment or system setting when it fails vs. when it works.
We are coming up on a release date and this is causing us a serious problem. Can anyone help?
whenenver i run cold fusion, it automatically gets my tables out of the master database instead of the new one i have created. i've added a user that has a default to the new database instead of the master, but i need to know how to use that new user correctly, and what i will need to do once i start adding more databases so that cold fusion will go to the appropriate database and not to the master.
hi, i am new to programming... when i do a project in MS Access , i have the option of password , which doesnot allows unautorized users to see the database design.. But in SQL server 2000 , is there any option to set password for the database...???
I have been using MySQL as the back end of my .Net 2.0 applications for a while using a custom membership provider without any problems.Having now switched to a new webhost which supports both MySQL and MS SQL Server 2005 and also creating a new site thought I should set up the new site to use MS SQL..... I am having trouble however setting up the SQL server to act as the membership provider. Following the advice on here I tried using aspnet_regsql.exe... Firstly, when trying to get the list of databasses on the remote server I get the following error: Failed to query a list of database names from the SQL Server. Invalid object name 'Sysdatabases' If I then just type in the name of my database and go through to the end I get the following error:Exception:An error occurred during the execution of the SQL file 'InstallCommon.sql'. The SQL error number is 8152 and the SqlException message is: String or binary data would be truncated. I can connect to my MS SQL server remotely without any problem using the likes of MS SQL Server Management Studio Express. Is there any other way I can setup the databases needed for user and roles access control or is the usage of MS SQL much more complicated than what MySQL was?
. The BPA recommend that the model database setting for the items below be set to on. I can accomplish this task through the query analyzer and run the set command. (Set ANSI_NULLS on). The response is positive but when I re-run the report the setting are back off.
I'm in the process of trying to set up my first SQL Server database and things aren't going as per the book! (surprise, surprise).
The 'Identity Specification' option during Table creation, is 'greyed out' and won't let me set (Is Identity) to 'Yes' or anything else for that matter.
I guess that there's a simple answer to this one, but as a newbie to SQL Server ( and VB 2005) I'm curently at a loss.

Hi all, Is it possible to recover or find the password of database or resetting is the only option? I have a database that has a two users in the Users tab. How to find out the password for these? Thanks,
I have a database installed on my server, and i have put a database on user "sa" , so when any user wants to view the database he must enter the password to view its content. But i have dicover that if the user make the authentication "Windows Authentication" and opened the database it will be opned without the need to enter the password !!! and for this i cant restrict the access for my database from un-authorized people.
Can any one tell me how i can restrict view database content unless entering the password?
I have tried every SA password in our documentation and I cannot get into the database. I want to dump the database and clear up the transaction log. Can anyone help me?

I try to develope an Application with .NET C# 2.0, which uses a SQL Express Edition Database. As you know, I can give the SQL Server a password an username (or Windows auth.).
Wenn the user has already installed SQL eXpress Edition, he can access to database and change the data manual.
Is there anyway to set password to a database in SQL Server (Express)?
I want to allow access to a database from another computer via tcp/ip connection.
When i use Windows authentication, this works if access from the same Windows account name; it is not necessary to supply any UserID or something else. But how to authorize access from another windows user account?
When i don't use  Windows authentication ( SqlConnectionStringBuilder.IntegratedSecurity=false in C#) i never succeed to access to the database even on the pc where the database is. I created a login+password+user using code like
command.CommandText = String.Format( "CREATE LOGIN {0} WITH PASSWORD='{1}';", login, password ); command.ExecuteNonQuery(); command.CommandText = String.Format( "CREATE USER {0} FOR LOGIN {1};", userName, login ); command.ExecuteNonQuery();
but how to use these Login, user, password ? What i'd like to do is simple: allow access to my DB by supplying a Name and a Password.
I use VS express2014, C#, .net 4.x and VS CE 2013, Windows 8.1&7
I want only SQL Server Authentication not Windows Authentication Because If some one copy database and attach at some other place using Windows Authentication then they can see each and everything.
I want something like Access (I know its password can be broken very easily)
I want to protect Table & SP Schema, Data is not much important.

I'm having trouble changing data in my database. It is actually a VB cuestion, but you see, i just finished lesson 9 of the begginers Visual Basic 2005 video series and in my last run i can't save the data i've changed into the database. no errors are shown, it just does't change the values. i know for a fact that the code is well written and there is no problem with the configuration of buttons and such, because i folowed the steps 50 times so I believe it must be a SQL configuration problem. does anybony have any insight on what the problem might be.

we have a database that only serves Select requests (no OLTP) for our very high traffic websites. what are the benefits of turning on read-only setting for the database if there are no transactions occuring in the database? does sql server put locks on tables for SELECT statements?
There has been a lot of discussion about moving single databases or devices in same server. Can someone suggest the most simplest method to set up a identical server with all the logins, permissions and password etc?
Building a new server with sp_help_revdatabase and dumps/loads is relatively easy but moving the master is confusing to me. I should run the new server and databases for a little testing period (with diffrent server name, of course) and then go live by dropping the old and by adding the new. I remember someone said that this would be as easy as copying master.dat to new machine (when servers are identical), any experience or other suggestions?
Does anyone know how to set a database priority? I have a SQL Server that contains multipule databases. One of the databases is very high priority. I need to make sure that no matter what is running on the server that this database's processes take priority and nothing slows it down.
Is there any practical downside to setting ANSI_NULLS and QUOTED_IDENTIFIER to ON at the database level? Almost all devs will simply leave these default settings at the top of a stored proc script anyway.
I want to query my databases to find out if Auto Shrink is set. I know the status column in sysdatabases holds this value as a bit setting but I don't know how can I check this value using a query.
Hello everyone, I am fairly new to SQL Server Express and I have a question I was hoping someone could help with. I know this will sound very wacky but please entertain the possibility of such scenario taking place...
Is it possible to connect to an instance of an SQL Server Express 2005, using asp, without having a database created and without configuring anything such as permits or users first ?
The SQL Server Express was installed on a PC that runs a web server as well but nothing else was done, I only have the instance name and I know the SQL Server is configured for local access only.
I was hoping to create a database and begin using it with an asp file that runs SQL commands I can input on a text window, but I can't find connection strings that work without specifying a database name, and also I don't know which user and password to use because it is set to windows authentication.
I thought the code would go something like this:
Set cn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") cn.Open "Driver={SQL Server};Server=SQLinstance;Address=localhost,port;Database=;Uid=;Pwd="
To top things out the web server is configured to send out a generic error message, so I can't see what the error I'm getting actually is...
