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.

How can I restore the default setting for MSDE to have only Windows
Autentication and not mixed mode? And to have my sa account without
password? Please help me! Thanks, Nibbles
Hello,
I'm not sure if it's the setup I did wrong, but I can't seem to get my
text datatype in my database to store more than 900 characters.
I'm trying to setup a news database for my website, which will populate
the information into a datagrid. To test, I manually added a news
item in the database through the visual studio 2003 gui. I
immediately noticed a problem as the I was getting an error after a
long news item saying:
"The value you entered is not consistent with the data type or length of the column, or over grid buffer limit."
I couldn't find anthing to set the buffer limit and the datatype is
"text" filled with simple text in the column. As a further test,
I
simply entered 12334567890123... up to 900 characters and still
recevied the error.
I would appreciate someone leading me in the right direction on this one.
Thanks a lot.
I am trying to change the computer name of a machine running MSDE but I get an error when SQL Server starts. With regular SQL when I change the name of a computer I re-run setup and setup fixes this problem. MSDE can only be installed from unattended mode so I can’t rerun setup and fix the problem.
My question is "How do I change the name of a computer running MSDE with out reinstalling MSDE"
We currently have the problem, that all our machines are produced with the
same name and afterwards the name is changed. So we have the problem that
the checksum key for the MSDE isn't valid anymore. As MSDE can only be installed
from unattended mode so I can’t rerun setup and fix the problem. Does anyone
know a solution for this problem ?? A program recalculating the cheksum ??
regards,
Manfred
I'm not sure if this is the correct forum for this this question but I'll give it a shot.
The only db development that I have ever done is in MS Access. I have a project at work that is being accomplished in VB and I need a db engine to use as the back end. Visual studio came with a copy of MSDE. Is this tool worth using or should I invest in mySQL? Are there any advantages to using MSDE over mySQL?
In my ASP.NET app, I'm executing a stored procedure via a SQLCommand the searches a customer database. I believe the default timeout is 90 seconds. I'm curious of what happens to the SQL Server Stored Procedure after timing out from the ASP.NET application. Does it timeout at the same time or do you have to set up a value in SQL Server?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHello, I am a SQL rookie. I have followed the tutorial and installed MSDN as it says. However, I am unable to create a database with WebMatrix. I keep getting an error that reads "SQL Server does not exist or access denied. ConnectionOpen (Connect())."
When I loaded the SQL, everything seemed to go well. I got all of the results that the tutorial said I should.
Please advise on my next steps. Thank you in advance.

If you have a SQL server setup that isn’t using a SAN but just a normal raid array and you wanted to utilize a SAN now.
What are the steps, I'm guessing that you will need to start the services under a domain user correct?
Is it as easy as detaching the DB and then reattaching the DB on the SAN?
I'm assuming you need to map the data and log arrays from the server to the SAN correct?
I can’t seem to find any documentation on moving a server to a new SAN. Can someone post links if you have them?
Do you need ENT edition or is Standard OK .
Thanks for your help.
Hi
I'm trying to set up a new job to update a field in the table, I've managed to get the select syntax to work, but when I added an IF statement and Update syntax it didn't like it and the following error was shown:-
Server: Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 9
Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'BEGIN'.
This is the syntax I'm trying to use for the job:-
USE EmployerEngagement
IF (SELECT On_Stop
FROM tblEmployer LEFT OUTER JOIN tblWP_Details
ON tblEmployer.Emp_ID = tblWP_Details.Emp_ID LEFT OUTER JOIN tblVetting
ON tblWP_Details.Record_ID = tblVetting.Record_ID
WHERE tblEmployer.On_Stop = 0
AND tblVetting.Next_Vett_Date <= GETDATE())
BEGIN
UPDATE tblEmployer
SET On_Stop = 1
END
Basically I just want to change the On_Stop value from 0 to 1 if the Next_Vett_Date is before or on todays date.
Am I using the wrong syntax for this?
Thanks

I am unable to set the value of my SqlParameter unless it is to a string.sqlCmd.Parameters.Add('@myParameter', SqlDbType.Bit).Value := false;
Setting it to false or 0 results in error: "Incompatible types: 'Object' and 'Boolean' (or 'Integer')"
I've tried to cast them as objects and that didn't work. I don't understand why something like 'false' (as a string) will.
FYI: I'm using Delphi.NET and hating it.
sry im an idiotbut how do u take like "SELECTbla FROM blar WHERE blam=blfda" and make the thing it "selects" into a variable thnx
View 5 Replies View RelatedHi, I have just started with ASP, and have a problem. I have created a stored procedure which looks to a specific tablename for information, based upon the users choice from a dropdown list.
The control works fine when executed from within visual web developer, and I manually enter the value that the variable expects. However I can not get the dropdown listbox value to be written to the SQL value. I have tried for days, traweled the net for answers, borrowed 3ft in height of SQL books! so either I am doing something fundamentally wrong, or I am missing something. My SP is:
ALTER Procedure GenericTableSelect
@tablename VarChar(20)
AS
Declare @SQL VarChar(1000)
SELECT @SQL = 'SELECT [base model] FROM '
SELECT @SQL = @SQL + @tablename
Exec ( @SQL)
and from the page the command to call it is:
SelectCommand=generictableselect></asp:SqlDataSource>
But this fails to compile and comes back with "@tablename not defined"
any pointers in the right direction would help.
The object of this is for two drop down boxes - the first is populated from one database of categories, the selection of which populates the second drop down list with items from within that category.
Cheers,
Richard
Hello all,
I've gotten approval at my work place to implement a new web server cluster. We currently have one web server running Windows 2003 and one SQL 2005 box. I've gotten approval to purchase 2 new web servers that will eventually become our primary servers.
I've browsed Microsoft's site but can't seem to find any FAQ's or How-Tos on clustering that are of any help. Is there anyone out there who has some info that could help me get started?
Thanks.

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?

I am getting the message
DESCRIPTION: Error: 1204, Severity: 19, State: 1 The SQL Server cannot obtain a LOCK resource at this time. Rerun your statement when there are fewer active users or ask the system administrator to check the SQL Server lock and memory configuration.
it is a 3rd party app I can't change with some ugly sql.
My current lock setting is
min max config run

Do I need to change the min value to higher? What would be a good value to try, I have 16 gig of memory on the server

Hello, I am trying to setup a Microsoft Express SQL 2005 server to be accessed by PHP. PHP is setup just fine, the problem lies in the database (or so I believe). Quite simply, the problem is that it won't connect. I need to know if I need to have any special configuration on the database for it to connect. I am fairly positive that I have all of the login information correct, so that is not the problem.

I get the error Incorrect Syntax near 'TESTDB04_Q3'.
What is the best way to set up a sql server db that will be accessed via web(asp/ado) and windows (vb/ado) environemnts. I am concerned with security and authentication.
Thanks!
