Hi ... I am converting SqlServer 2000 databases to SqlServer 2005. It is working great for the most part.
The issue I am having is that a user with a schema that owns objects is established in the database and no user is defined in the instance logins. I can see where if I add the instance login then the Principal_id does not match. Cannot drop the user/schema as there are referenced objects.
I got around this in SqlServer 2000 by updating the IDs to match but now they are views and updating is not allowed.
Is there a straightforward way to resynch the database user to a newly created login?
Hi,I had this problem in version 7 and dont remneber How I solved it!!I have installed a local SQL Server (2000 aka version 8) on myWorksation (W2K), I have picked NT authuntication.Everything was fine untill I changed my password. Now SQL server cannot start because it fails to login. The old password is embeddedsomwhere and I cant egt to it!!!My workstation is on a network, so the password is my networkpassword.Everythinng is MS on our network.Any help would be appreciated.ThanksFardad
We are trying to set up Web Synchronization, but we keep getting the error "IIS ws not found on the web server. Please specify a computer name that has IIS installed".
Our Distributor/Publisher are on one box, IIS on aother box. Both boxes are in the same domain (test environment), and both boxes are being logged into with a domain account.
We can get this to work in another similar environment so we don't know why this one isn't working. Is it permission issues?
How do you handle user level security with SQL Server 2005?
Say I have an HR database.
In Active Directory I have two groups: Managers, Employees.
Now in this HR Database I want to setup permissions in such a way that Managers can see all employees under them (but not other managers) and the employees can only see themselves.
(I'd have various levels of management defined in a table somewhere, so that each employee has a manager ID that links to another employee so that the CEO would be manager of everyone by working down the chain).
What I'm trying to understand is the best way to handle the permissions.
I'm not entirely clear on how to deal with that.
Would I use user chaining to do that, I wouldn't need impersonation (that's just for instances where you want dynamic SQL and it won't execute with user chaining, correct?)
Anyway, just looking for some general direction on this (obviously I need to get a good book it would seem).
Would I create a stored procedure that runs with EXECUTE AS permissions so that I'd have a non-interactive login it uses that has table access then all the other users have permission to execute the sproc?
So that sproc runs, pulls back a SELECT * FROM tbl_HRINFO and using a WHERE constraint limits who is returned WHERE SupervisorID = CurrentLoggedInEmployeeID ?
Also: How can I determine who is logged in and running the procedure, would the sproc use the SELECT USER_NAME command to see who was running it?
As you can see, I'm working from square one on all of this. Not sure if my posting entirely made sense, but hopefully someone can get me pointed in the right direction, thanks!
Just installed SQL Server 2005 and tested my old VS 2005 ASPnet websites, which were connected toSQL Server 2000 databases before. All my websites were created for local HTTP applications, coded with a connection string with User ID and Password. The SQL Server 2000 was configured as mixed authentication (i.e. with User ID and Password). These websites worked very well with SQL Server 2000 database server.Testing my old VS 2005 websites with SQL Server 2005 database, showed a 'Login failed for a User ''.' error msgalthough the 'Test Connection' on VS 2005 design showed a perfect query for e.g. a GridView control. I have assured that the UserID/Password were correct for Management Studio Security object'slogin and Database Security's user. The server instance was configured with mixed authentication mode. One thing I am not sure of is, when clicking the Management Studio icon, a Connection dialog showed up, asking for a Windows or MIxed authentication? I just stayed with the Windows authentication. What does the authenticationmode have anything to do with the VS 2005 website connection? Should I change to mixed authetnication mode?TIA,Jeffrey

I would like to request you to kindly point me to a location where I may obtain more ideas/suggetions/details on how synchronization may be performed in a real world scenario ?
MS has been promoting smart clients and offline availability, but I cant seem to find any material that outlines some ideas/techniques/pointers as to how this may be acheived sans SQL Server replication
Essentially, what I'm looking for is someting that would guide a not-so-solid-with-databases person like me through how synchronization (sans sql replication engine) may be implemented - any watchouts etc..
I was hoping someone could help me with a question. I have a server that has a table with 5.6 million rows of data. I want to use DTS to transfer all the rows in the table from one SQL server to another via DTS, which I have got to work correctly. The problem I'm having is when I run the DTS job the 2nd time, it does all 5.6 million rows again and not just the deltas since the last DTS job. Is there anyway to use DTS to transfer the deltas (ex: 1000 rows since the last DTS job) from server 1 to server 2 ?
Hi all, here are my goals: Have the same DB on two different stand-alone computers, and keep them up-to-date from each other.
Basically a user would input to a DB for a week. Then every week or two, update the other stand alone DB with the new input. The DB would be exactly the same.
What are my options for this? I'd like it as easy as possible! Are there any software packages that deal with this type of transfer, etc.? Thank you!
I have to schedule the automatic restore the standby database fortesting backups . The database was already in log shipping mode. Up towhat point do I need to restore the database without affecting the logshipping sequence? Can we query the log shipping tables for the lastscn applied and recover up to that point? Any suggestoions are welcome.ThanksTram

we have a merg replication running in three regions UK,USA and AU
my question is in one of our test environment testers managed to get a few tables out of synch while the replication is out.
we have re-established the replication since then and it worked fine untill they try to update records from those out of synch tables. as usual we get conflicts.
we don't really know how many tables are out of synch either. we have about 500 tables.
is there a way to synch tables from with in the merge replication??
As most of you do, I am eagerly awaiting the ability to synchronize my sql mobile database on the hand held to a local sql express database on my local machine
I know users in Microsoft have pointed out to us that we are getting things for free.
At the same time, Microsoft is getting our patience for free and at a cost to us developers.
Its nearly April and as one article says Microsoft will release a fix for this inadequacy
Microsoft...we are happy to pay for this. Palm offers it so what is the big deal. Its not the
reinvention of the wheel. We would have liked that instead of the server synchronization
that bypasses the local sql express database
I as many others are happy to pay
Please let us know when you will be addressing this problem.
I would appreciate the feedback and frustration of other developers. Maybe this will show them we are really running out of time with our clients
Hello,I'm relatively new to the database world so please forgive me inadvance for my ignorance. I have recently been tasked at my job withfinding a tool that will perform the following tasks: 1) extractschemas from a db, 2) produce a difference report between schemas fromtwo databases, and 3) synchronize two schemas. The purpose is forproduct upgrades during which an existing database schema will need tobe synchronized with a baseline schema.The tool must support the following database vendors (versions givenin parenthesis): Oracle (8i/9i), Sybase (12.x), Informix (9.x), MSS2000, and IBM DB2 (7/8).I have spent the last several days downloading and researching avariety of tools such as Aqua Data Studio, DbVisualizer, DBExplorer,DBDiff, and AdeptSQL. I thought it would be a good idea to post amessage to a few database newsgroups and ask for any recommendationsdatabase developers may have.So if anyone has any recommendations on such a tool or softwarepackage, I would greatly appreciate any information.Thanks!Chad Smith

I have deployed some reports on the reporting server, i have noticed that every one in the domain in which the reports are published can access the reports, except one user. when he tries to access the report he got the following error message or the blank report.
"An error occured during report processing"
"can no read the next data row for the data set dataset1".
Although this user has all the roles on the reporiting server kike browser,content manager etc.
I have a database created in server 2000, and now I have moved it to server 2005.
All works do fine, but there is a user which cannot be removed.
In the user properties window, the assigned schema is empty. The user is a db_owner of the database. When I was trying to update the user, it asked me for the login. The login is empty, but the field is disabled.
I just started evaluation of the server and meet the fist problem. I searched the forum however most answers related to use SQL Server manager and security tab. Note I use the express edition which has no manager, but only configuration manager. There is no security tab. So can somebody help in setting up trusted accounts for SQL server express edition?
im trying to allocate a user appropriate permissions but i would like to see the users activities to make sure i do give that user exactly what they need how do i check user activity on sql server 2005
I am running into a null reference exception on replication with SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition. The problem occurs at repl.synchronize(). Even though the statement is inside a try-catch block, the exception is not caught, and the application quits.
Device O/S: Windows Mobile 5.0 v 5.1.195 Build 14957.2.3.1 Hardware: Dell Axim X51v, Intel PXA270 Database: SQL 2005 SP2 (no post SP2-patches)
Exception shows as "an unexpected error has occured in AppName.exe. Select Quit and then restart this program, or select Details for more information." Details: .. at NullReferenceException at AppName.Form1.Synch() .. at .... (various lines) .. at AppName.Form1.Main()
The application is based on the tutorial (Creating a Mobile Application with SQL Server Compact Edition) at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms171908.aspx.
The application was successfully working initially but then stopped working on replication after some minor modifications which were not related to the replication code, e.g. adding some buttons to the form.
Three things are puzzling me here..
1. The fact that this is a NullReferenceException and not a SqlCeException 2. Why the try-catch block doesn't work 3. Why the exception occurs
Dear all I wants to run sql server user defined function when linked two server.
I have linked two sql server.There is one function called getenc().This function created on first server.What i want.I wants to run this user defined function on the second sql server. can any one help me?
I originally installed SQL Server Express 2005 on my computer using Windows Authentication mode, and discovered when I tried to add another user/login that I didn't have permission to do so. This is rather odd as the windows account that I installed SQL server with is the system admin for the computer.
I have successfully changed the login mode to mixed, and have tried to login in as "sa", but it appears that "sa" was given some sort of password (did SQL server automatically generate one?), and I don't know what it is. When I go into command prompt and try to change the password, it says that it cannot alter the login 'sa' because it does not exist or I do not have permission (i'm pretty sure it's the later, as 'sa' shows up on the list of logins in SQL server express).
do the following steps:1:Use Manage Studio login the server with Integrated security.2:Create a dabase named testdb;3:Create a SQL Server login named amber ,and set it to be dbowner oftestdb;4:Create a SQL Server login named guxiaobo ,set it's default databse tobe testbd,and in the testdb databse map login guxiaobo to userguxiaobo;5:Close Manage Studio and reopen it ,this time use login amber log tothe server.6:In database testbd create a databse role role1 owned by dbo;7:In database testdb create a schema schema1 owned by dbo;8:Set user guxiaobo to be member of role1,and set guxiaobo's defaultschema to be schema1;9:In the schema properties-schema1 dialog choose permissions,in theusers or roles listview I add role1 to it.in the explicit permissionsfor role1 listbox,I choose select /update/insert/delete/view definitiongrant checkboxes.and apply the selects.10:In the schema1 schema I create a table:create table a(a int ,bvarchar(10));11:In the dabase role properties-role1 dialog choose securables panel,int securable listview I add the schema1.a table( choose all thecolumns of table a for all permissions),and in explicit permissions forschema1.a I choose all for grant ,then apply the selects.12:Now I use login guxiaobo to log into dabase and issue "select * froma",but got a error msg saying guxiaobo has not enough permission toselect form table a.Does anyone has found anything I missed?
Who needs to invoke the jobs in SQL05? Manually executing the job import_myteam as a user with dbo privileges fails. So, which user account should be assigned to successfully run scheduled jobs (ie, dbo)?
The package file for the job in question is located in the server€™s C:Documents and SettingsuserxyzMy DocumentsVisual Studio 2005ProjectsIntegration Services Project3Integration Services Project3MyTeam (1).dtsx, but this still fails when the user userxyz is logged on and is executing the job directly from the server console.
Step1 of the package executes as userxyz Step 2 fails and runs as cpmc-casql02
The user account userxyz has administrator rights to the server as well as being a sysadmin of the SQL2005 database (named cpcasql02).
The account cpmc-casql02 is a €śpublic€? user of the database and is a member of the administrator group on the server itself.
This same scenario carries for tasks as simple as truncating a table and importing the contents of another table in the same database.
All of these jobs exhibit the same behavior whether run directly from the server console on remotely from a workstation connected to the SQL2005 database.
Attempting to get a really simple job working, we also created a very simple SSIS package which does a select from a database table and writes the output to a text file. When running the same package from the user€™s workstation within Visual Studio, the package executes successfully. Once copied to the server, and run from within SQLServer as MyJunePackage however, the execution fails in the same manner as described above. The first step executes successfully as the logged-in user and the second fails executed under the account cpmc-casql02.
So, again we have the same behavior of sequential steps being run as different users with unsatisfactory results. Please advise as to how to set up these jobs to run correctly and consistently.
This forum is unbelievably huge, so i have no idea if this is the right place to post this...
I have an ASP.NET application, which is part of a work based project. I am developing in Visual Web Developer and my database is SQL 2005 Express (SP2). I cannot get the database to log in.
This is because my account is not an admin, as Vista disables SQL Admin rights by default...
So the Surface Area Configuration tool has the "Add New Administrator" tool.
I go to use it, it shows me the list on the left, i hit the button to shift it across to the right, sure enough, no problems. I hit OK. It does nothing. This is on Vista, on an Adminitrator account with all prieveleges. I have tried it with UAC turned on and turned off.
No matter what i do, it doesnt give me the rights. If i open the SQLProv tool again, all the list has shifted back into the left panel, as if the form never submitted.

Has anyone else run into this issue and resolved it? I have seen posts for earlier versions of SQL Express that said to run the configuration manager and change the account types to Local System rather than Network Service, but I don't have the configuration manager installed. If I set the accounts to use Local System by changing the login info during setup, I get the same error.
