View 1 Replies View RelatedI need to set up 1 new user in SQL Server 2005 to be able to read specific tables in a db (db1).
The user will connect from MS access using odbc links (SQL Native client ot SQL Server driver)
I've tried to set up one and once logged on from the user workstation, I can only see sys. tables and INFORMATION_SCHEMA tables.
None of the required db1 tables appear.
under Security/Logins I've created User1:
SQL Server auth. with password
default db = db1
server_roles = none
user mapping = map, db1, user1,dbo
securables = none
status = grant, enabled
on the access db, the odbc link was set up with default db = db1
Why can't I see any of the db1 tables?
How can I restrict access to the sys. tables?
Thank you
My company is new to MDS. I am trying to set an attritube in an entity to read only so the users can't change the value in that field. When I did that, the whole model disappeared. I thought I had deleted it by accident so I created a test model and tried to do the same. The test model disappeared. This time, before saving the new settings I took a snapshot. After saving I took another snapshot. You can see that the whole model is gone (zz_RN_Permissions_Test). I tried every other coworker with admin rights and nobody shows it on the Models list. The behavior on the Excel add-in is correct. I can't change any values on that column. But I need to keep the models available.
See before and after snapshots below.
Guys
I have read only user for which I need to give permissions so that he can see the view definition from the management studio by right click - script view as - alter view - copy to clipboard.
Is there any access privilege/rights that can accomplish this.
Thanks
I'm not in our IT section but am responsible for the running of a finance application on SQL 2000.
I want a Read only user set-up on the SQL DB so that we can use Crystal and Access to look at the tables.
IT have some concerns with this as they say it by passes all security.
Are they spinning me a line?? Surely read oonly is read only? Can a user be restricted to a specific database as there are a number running on the same server.
Many thanks for any advice comments.

Is there any way to set up a User-Defined Constraint to do something like "This integer column cannot be 2 if this row is NULL"
Also, User-Defined Constraints are checked before a record is inserted or updated right?
Thanks
Hey guys,
I currently have a sql server 2000 sp4 instance with a read-only db on it. We get tlogs shipped from an outside vendor and keep a copy of the production database in house for reporting purposes. The database is in read-only mode because we apply new tlogs daily. Recently we did a full recover and applied 2 tlogs.
The issue:
There is a user YYY in the database and at the server level, but they aren't linked. So I do what I usually do and run the following command:
exec sp_change_users_login 'Update_One', 'YYY','YYY'
Except for I get the following error:
Server: Msg 3906, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_change_users_login, Line 109
Could not run BEGIN TRANSACTION in database 'ZZZ' because the database is read-only.
Now this error makes sense and I understand why, so my question is how do I fix the users not being linked?
I'm sure this is a really easy one but I want to create a user with read only access on a sql 2000 database using SQL authentication.
I'm building a little pilot DB system and I have a trainee developer who I want to built me some queries for crystal reports. But I dont want them to be able to amend/delete data or tables etc.
I've created the user but how to I set it to read only. Also will the user still have read only rights if the user has access to the database via enterprize manager/Query analysier.
thanks,

I need to create a new login with SELECT rights so the users can view all tables with no UPDATE, DELETE, OR INSERT rights. But this user needs to be able to CREATE VIEWS. I have assigned the user to the Public role and gone in and modified Securables for the Database to be able to CREATE VIEW. When I connect using my new user and try to create a view, I get the error message: CREATE VIEW permissions denied in database 'test01'.
Help Please

If I want to easily and quickly grant all permissions to a group of objects
for one user (or group), how can I do this with the tools provided?
In 6.5, I could right-click the user or group and click the "Grant All" button.
In 7.0 this is either missing or has been moved.
Thanks!

Our company has several SQL Server 7 databases. One of them has now on two occassions, set itself to 'Single User' mode. I am completely baffled as to what can be causing it.
There's no jobs set up to do it.
There's no stored procedures programmed to do it.
The SQL Server Log shows that a DBCC CHECKDB ran at 18:00:37.73 and that users attempted to and couldn't log in from 18:01:01.95 onwards.
There is a maintenance plan set to run every two hours that does a backup, integrity checks, so it fired the CHECKDB.
Any ideas please?
Thanks.
Hi:
I like to know how I may store some user-specific data at the beginning of a session and retrieve the same data later during the session in a SQL command. For those of you familiar with ORACLE, I am trying to mimic the SET_CLIENT_INFO and GET_CLIENT_INFO functions of ORACLE's DBMS_APPLICATION_INFO package on SQL Server.
Any suggestions?
thanks,
Peter
I wrote a simple SSIS package that runs a batch and a stored proc. They both run fine. I can see the stored procedure run and in process under task manager I see the batch run. However I don't want the batch to run under the System account, how can I change to another user. Thank you.

I am trying to set up Web Synchronization using Merge Replication. The Distributor and Publisher are on the same machine. Subscriber is a windows mobile application which syncs the data using web synchronization. I have configured IIS on web server for the sync. However there is no domain user on database and web server. Is it possible set up web sync without a domain user? Which user can I then use to give permissions on the snapshot share folder.
Any help is appreciated.

Can a user be granted the ability to create stored procedures with read only capabilities? I wouldn't mind be able to UPDATE but simply need to read only.

Hi there.
I'd like to call dtexec with something like this:

Thanks,

Dear all,
To allow users enter chinese character into table, I did try to change the field type to nchar and this is workable. But I have few hundred tables.. Is there anyway to change the setting in easier way? by instead change the field type one by one for each table?
I tried change the collation to Chinese_PRC_90_BIN for the database, but it is not support chinese input..
Any Idea?
Thanks.

Hi to all DBAs,
I would like to ask if there will be a write and concurrency issue if i would create an online application with just one user connecting to the database, just like most open source php/mysql that can be downloaded
i.e
Setup 1. I will grant a single user that will connect to a database and will be set to a config.inc.php file and then create a table users (userid, username, password) and this table will be used for the application authentication and access control.
Setup 2. or is it much better to grant users that will connect to the database and have the table users for access control of the application?
to further illustrate my query:
Setup 1 would be:
###################Table: Users
user a@ipadd --> db1 --> userid mary --> myOnlineApp
user a@ipadd --> db1 --> userid john --> myOnlineApp
user a@ipadd --> db1 --> userid paul --> myOnlineApp
and Setup 2 would be:
#####################Table: Users
user mary@ipadd --> db1 --> userid mary --> myOnlineApp
user john@ipadd --> db1 --> userid john --> myOnlineApp
user paul@ipadd --> db1 --> userid paul --> myOnlineApp
will Setup 1 be enough if I will use SQL Server as database?
or Setup 2 is better user/database architecture?
This application will be online enrollment for a school with 16,000 students
very much appreciated for the feedbacks and suggestions
^_^x
I have 3 servers taking part in an AlwaysOn AG.
I want to grant a user READ access to only one replica, and certainly not to the principle.
How do I go about doing this?
I'm taking a database(read-only) backup from one server and restoring it on other server. As soon as restore is done it is bringing database into single-user read-only mode.
why it is bringing the database into single user mode ?
Can you write a stored procedure to add a user to your DB and set the roles the user belongs to?
I want to write a stored proc. to add users and set roles so it can be used in code instead of doing it manually.
After the user has been added and their roles set, can you write another stored proc. to give you what roles they belong to?
i attached adventure works in sql server 2008 and it showing as read only ,make it read write or remove read only tag from database.

I have two database files, one .mdf and one .ndf. The creator of these files has marked them readonly. I want to "attach" these files to a new database, but cannot do so because they are read-only. I get this message:

Database 'TestSprintLD2' is read-only or has read-only files and must be made writable before it can be upgraded.
