Hi guys,
I've got two apps that are going to have pretty much the same users and i wanted them to have the same ASPNET.MDF user database. Is it possible to store the ASPNET.MDF in a different location and then have the two apps access it from there or alternatively have it in the App_Data folder of one of the apps and then have the second app access it from there?
Thanx
A few years ago I wrote an active-X server to maintain a singleconnection to a file .mdb from multiple apps on same PC because I washaving to many database curptions.Should I use the same Active-X server for the same in a MS SQL ServerDSN connection or is it ok to have multiple apps from the same pc usingthe DSN?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an application that was developed under Visual Basic .NET 2005 Standard that I keep continuously running to monitor and gather data and store that data in a SQL Server Express database. This is all done on a single computer that's not networked to anything. The trouble is, I'd like to look at the data in the database from time to time without shutting down the application, but I'm not able to do so. If I try to copy the database files, named lamination.mdf and lamination.ldf, to another location, I get the following error message;
"Cannot copy lamination: There has been a sharing violation. The source or destination file may be in use."
I would like to be able to copy the file to my office computer where it would be convenient to use Management Studio Express to look at the database tables. I can't even use Management Studio Express on the computer where the application is running, as I get the following message when I try to attach the database:
"CREATE FILE encountered operating system error 32(The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.) while attempting to open or create the physical file 'C:Documents and Settings barnardMy DocumentsVisual Studio 2005ProjectsLamination Phase ILamDataBaseLamination.mdf'. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 5123)"
Here is the connection string in the VB application:
"Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename="C:Documents and Settings barnardMy DocumentsVisual Studio 2005ProjectsLamination Phase ILamDataBaseLamination.mdf";Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"
In the VB app, connections to the database are made only every few minutes, and the connections are immediately closed.
Is there anyway I can either copy the database files, or at least look at the database tables with Management Studio Express without stopping the VB application?
Thanks,
Tim
Hi,
Can we share and schedule whole report folder(not just one report) by using management studio?
Thanks
New to MSSQL
Management is getting frustrated with the increase in number of NT servers for MSSQL and Vendor packages. Currently we purchase a box for each app. We would like to go to one or two MSSQL servers running multiple application database's (based on size etc) . How are you handling this? Do you do this for test only or both test and production? Any gotcha's. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

Does 7.0 allow multiple databases to share a data file/log file?
Will a large data device file shared by 10-25 databases present any problems?
Thanks
I'm looking for some advice on how to manage reports that use the same query in their datasets. I have multiple reports that use several datasets that are the same. If I need to make a change to one dataset, I need to remember to update the other datasets. Of course I don't always remember to do that!
Is there a way to create a dataset in a single location and then share it? I was thinking of using a View but I don't think it'll accept the parameters.
I've been cutting & pasting the entire query as I make change but I'm afraid it'll mess that up or forget to update a dataset.
How do you do it?
Any suggestions you have would be helpful.

HI all
I have a relativley unique setup
where all the sql servers have been consolidated
so multiple applications are connected to their respective databases on the same SQL server
The problem I have is when an app locks tempdb all the other apps that require it are blocked/slow
The ?
can tempdb be split or multiple tempdb's be created
Hey guys and girls,
This seems like a no brainer, but it's driving me nuts. I want one XML file for the entire solution. There are multiple packages in the solution which have different Connections in the conntion Managers. The packages share some connection names, and some are unique to the package.
Example:
LoadData.dtsx would have a source database connection named (SourceDB_OLEDB) and a oledb connection (DataWarehouse_OLEDB).
LoadDataMart.dtsx would use the same name for the (DataWarehouse_OLEDB) connection and have another oledb connection (DataMart_OLEDB)
I want one XML config file that has all the connection strings, but the problem is that the LoadDataMart.dtsx will throw an error:
Error 1 Error loading LoadDataMart.dtsx: The connection "SourceDB_OLEDB" is not found. This error is thrown by Connections collection when the specific connection element is not found. c:ssisLoadDataMart.dtsx 1 1
Thanks,
James
I have a situation where I would like to set up one DB server instance for US and anther one for AUStralia. The Instance should share the same data base/hardsisk. One of the instances will be running in using US time zone and anothe one in Australia time zone.
There will be 2 Application instaces one poinint to each SQL Server instance. This applications does write into the database
So the underlying requirment is to have 2 database server running in differnet time zones but accessing the same disk/set of data
What is the best way to do this? Is it linked servers?Girish
I would like to know if it is possible to have different applications on separate report servers sharing one report server database. If so are there possible issues or ptfalls to this type of architecture?
Thanks,

How many "applications" can be loaded onto Microsoft SQL Server 6.5?
Additional Information:
The OS platform is Windows NT Server 4.0 (SP5) on a Compaq ProLiant 1600 (PII 450) with 256Mb RAM
Proposed applications, although this probably will mean little, are Dataview (club membership) Peterborough (payroll) and Positive (HR).
Any assistance would be appreciated.
Thanks

Hey guys, my first post so here goes...
I'm wondering if anyone here knows how to write a program (or download a program) that pretends its a sql server and listens for connections, so that when an app thinks its sending its connection string to a server, its sending it to the locally installed program, so that you can get the UID and password from the connection string.
I'm working at a company where we need to write an extension to the software we use but we don't know the login to use for it. These programs are horribly designed. If you run it with the net card disabled it dumps the connection string to the screen but of course it has the UID and pass starred out. Any thoughts?
I'm struggling to connect to my SQL server whilst running a dot net application which is located on a network drive.
the program will run perfectly from my c drive, but as soon as i move the program file on to the network, it no longer recognises my windows permissions, and does not connect to the database.
can someone help?
is there some code that i need to add to my dot net code?
I have SQL Server 2000 with databases on the NetApps filer CIFS share.For example, the datafiles are located at \network shareserversharemicrosoftsqlservermssqldata...Whenever there is a filer failover, some of the databases go in suspectmode. Is there a setting on SQL Server like a time out setting from thenet apps that can be modified so that the databases will wait for awhile before going into the suspect mode?Raziq.*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***

Does anyone know where can i find some windows or web applications using ssis for manipulations?
If a user's pc needs to run 2 different applications (sold by 2 different vendors) and one must be 6.5 and the other must be 7.0, are there any problems with the client machine?
My understanding is that each of the apps comes with the pieces it needs to connect. I'm trying now to reach the tech types at the vendors and ask what kind of custom setup (if any) is needed on a user workstation or if the install does everything. If they come with their own dlls and odbc data sources, might all be well?
Does anyone have apps loaded on a desktop that connects to both a 6.5 and a 7.0?
Thanx,

Hello,
i am planning to build Pocket Pc App and i would like to know if i can use Sql Mobile as my data store. The data base design is quite complex.
I wont be using any recplication/synchronization in my app since its a standalone app.
pls suggest.
Thanks
Karthik
most articles I read suggest that apps need to retry upon failure in a mirrored environment, using a different connection string, not worrying a whole lot about waiting for the retry. But I heard somewhere that the original connection string can also contain info about the mirrored db, thus eliminating the need to use two different connection strings, and perhaps not even needing to retry programatically. Which is correct? I also heard that programatic retry could be required anyway because of some bug involving the "first" failure and disappearance of a connection pool. Can someone just provide the 50,000 foot view of what it takes to make an app "mirror aware"?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHey guys,
I have a quick question about SQL 2000 server data sharing.
I am currently using SQL 2000 Server Enterprise and I need to do synchronous data sharing with flat files. I have an ODBC connection to the files. I was able to easily share this data by using linking in Microsoft Access, however, for the life of me I cannot figure out how to do the same in SQL. We are in the process of converting legacy code. The old code will of course be communicating with the flat files and the new code will be talking to SQL server. So it is vital that the 2 access methods are both pulling the same data. Does anyone have any ideas???
Help would be greatly appreciated
Thanks

hello sir
i have sql sever 2000 installed on my PC which i would like to share on network.
when i am trying to create ODBC connection from other pcs on network i am getting error -- specified sql server not found.
pls help me
gayatri
Can you use SQL Express remotely instead of locally.
I have been told that I might be able to use SQL Express as my network server for sharing files. Is this possible, or do I need a different version of SQL to do this?
I have been reading the VBE forums and from what I gathered was that SQL Express is only for a local table only, is this true?
If not, what is the work around, and how do I go to another pc to find out if it is sharable?
I would hate to get several months in my app design and learn that I was headed in the wrong direction.
Thanks

Hi
My console applications work for SA and no other user. I can run the Stored procedures used in the console application from Query analyser when logged in with username/password that I am attempting to use for console applications. I am using SQL server authenication. User access permissions look ok in Enterprise Manager. Access is permit for my user.
Any suggestions?

i'm building apps using sql server express and I want to deploy to servers that have the 2.0 .net framework but have sql server 2000 database.
Can this be done, and if so, how?
Observing God€™s Holy Spirit, I see God saying that The Lord Jesus influences every natural occurrence of kindness, righteousness, and judgment (Jeremiah 9:23-24). I believe God, so I thank The Lord Jesus for your grace in these matters.
Is there a way to execute ETL packages programatically? Specifically, is it possible to
manually invoke the ETL package to execute from, say, an ASP.NET
application?
If so, how do you do that?
I've been searching MSDN regarding this but all I see are examples on programatically building packages.
How can I share stored procedures so I can call them form different databases ?
Basically, all databases have identical table names and structure but containing different data and I don't want to replicate all stored procedures on every database. There are too many and will also be very unpractical to maintain the code.
Thanks,
Moshe
Hi :)
I would like to know if it is possible to link two databases together
(in my case ASPNETDB, and another mdf database) so that I can run
queries on those shared tables. For example, I would like to use the
uniqueidentifiers from the ASPNETDB tables in my own tables.
Thank you!
(I do use the latest version of Visual Web Developer).
I am writing a DB-driven application, using Visual Studio. I have a database that i want to be able to move from one computer to another, and still be able to access it. It's probably something simple, but I must be missing out something.
The problem is that if i choose windows authentication, then the DB cannot be used on another computer. I also had no luck when using SQL Authentication.
How can this be done? What form of authentication should be used and how, so that I can just copy my DB from one computer to another, then log into the DB using a username and password?
*Any* help would be greatly appreciated!
Hi:I'm trying to setup a MS Cluster but I don't know if it is feasible toconfigure it in the way I think.I have two machines with win2k server and MSSQL-2000 one of them iscurrently performing as the production database and the other one isthe backup. The secondary one is keeping updated via the "LogShipping" technic.We almost covered all the other possible failures of the othercomponents (ie: network, power, application servers, etc), the data ismaintaned in a raid which is ok but we want to cover also thepossibility of that failure too (yes, you can call us paranoids!! ).The thing is we want to create a cluster that do not share the data,but each machine of the cluster have thei own set of the same data.My intention is to configure the cluster to detect a failure of onemachine and initiate the failover to the remaing one using theappropiate scripts related to the promotion of a secondary serverkeeped updateusing "log shipping".Have anyone some experience with that kind of solution ??Thanks in advanceLeonardo

I installed Sql Server 2000 in my server with windows authentication.
IIS side under security tab checked Windows authentication option.
When i try to my asp.net web application everything is working fine.
But now as per user wish i dont want to use windows authentication.So sql side i create one user called 'global' and giving full permissions .In IIS side unchecked the windows option and checked
Anonymous access and given 'global' user id at anonymous user account place.
Now when i try to run my Web application i can connect to sql servel and fetch the data but no events are running in my .aspx page.means when i click any button or select list or combo box nothing is happening.All events are not firing and also not giving any error message.Its simple showing the page as it is.

We are currently migrating our sequel 6.5 databases to sequel 2005
We have a handful of vb6 apps that connect to the current 6.5 database.
Can anyone recommend the "best practice" for connecting vb6 apps to sequel 2005 databases ?
Thanks in advance.
Hi all,I bet this doesn't exist, but does anyone know of an MS SQL EnterpriseManager-type application for Linux that would give me access to a DTSstored on the server? I'm a web programmer by profession, and most ofmy tools are Linux-based, but because I do so much indepth work in MSSQL and DTS's, I've been dual-booting between Windows and Linux mainlybecause there's no way I know of to access my MS SQL DTS's from Linux.Any Linux solutions out there that will read and maybe even edit SQLDTS's?Thanks,Alex.
View 1 Replies View Relatedwhat proactive steps can we take to make our app (ado, stored procs etc) cluster aware, in the event that we someday use clustering? For instance, I read things about retry strategies etc but dont even know if retry is on a different connection or what appears to be the same connection. We already make our trans as small as possible.
