Sql Server Database Administration Web Application
Sep 10, 2006
Hi All,
I will shortly (hopefully) begin devleoping an ASP.Net web application to let users manage a remote sql server 2005 database (kind of like the php myAdmin tool for MySQL databases). Were not talking a server managament tool for DBAs, more an end user tool for managing personal databases (it seems that web hosting companies provide tools for MySQL, but if you use SQL Server, you're stuck unless you have management tools on your PC - and what about mac users?).
Given that premise, what features should i attempt to include? Creating and modifying tables structures and data is an obvious inclusion, but what else?
I also haven't yet decided whether to go about this using scripts or using SMO. I've read that SMO is backwards compatible across versions of SQL Server...how true is this? are there issues or is it seamless?
Please post any comments or thoughts you have, and thanks for taking the time.

To All SQL Guru's
I have this simple problem. How can I make SQL Enterprise Manager list only one database that is accessible by client who registered the SQL Server on his / her Enterprise Manager. The user has been granted access to only one database. But every time I register the server in the client's SQL Server Enterpise Manager it lists all database and user database with it.
I just want it to show only one or two or as how many database that login has granted access to and eliminate the database from the SQL Server Enterprise Manager's database list.
Please Help
Thanks

Hi...
Does anybody know of an open source script I can download that will enable me to manage an SQL database? I basically need to access and modify the database from any machine that may not have SQL Enterprise Manager Installed. I was thinking of writing my own script to do this but I assumed that there is probably already one out there.

Hi,We are a systems research group at the Computer Science departmentatRutgers University, and are conducting a survey to understand detailsabout network, systems and database administration. We hope that thisinformation would help us recreate a realistic environment to helpresearch in 'systems management'.We request network, systems, and database administrators to take thissurvey. As an incentive, all surveys completed in their entirety willbeentered into a drawing of a number of $50 gift certificates (fromAmazon.com).We hope you have a few minutes to take the survey which is located at:http://vivo.cs.rutgers.edu/administration_survey.htmlResearch in our group:The goal of our research is to improve the overall availability andmaintainability of services. Since administrators form an integral partof these services, a key aspect of this work is to build environmentsand tools that ease the task of service administration. In particular,environments which would help administrators know how their actionsmight impact the real service (before performing them for real), webelieve would be useful in preventing inadvertent actions. This surveytries to understand the existing environments, what administrators docurrently to test the 'validity' of their actions, and the difficultiesthey face in doing so. The two specific systems we are looking at arenetworks and databases, as we believe these are important components ofmany services.If you have any questions regarding this survey or our work, feel freeto email us:Fabio Oliveira (fabiool at cs || rutgers || edu), orKiran Nagaraja (knagaraj at cs || rutgers || edu)Thanks for your time,Fabio OliveiraPhD student, Vivo Research Group (http://vivo.cs.rutgers.edu)Rutgers University

I have been working SQL server for many years as a web developer, however in my current position we are lacking an expert in maintenance and admninistration as the company has recently switched over to SQL Server 2005.
I therefore need to develop a greater understanding of the best practices with regards to administration and am a bit lost as there are so many options which seem like they might match my requirements. As I have never looked beyond the basic administration/maintenance side of things before I have no idea which options to investigate.
Basically I want to clear any records older than 3 months old on a scheduled/automatic basis. There seem to be various options that could do this, however I want to know what the best option is, rather than waste a lot of time and risk problems by resorting to trial and error.
We are already backing up this data, however I am not sure if I should combine these tasks. It is highly unlikely that we will ever have to restore these older records, however we do need to store the data for legal reasons.
I dont expect anyone to tell me everything, as I am happy to investigate, I just need a nudge in the right direction.
Thanks

Is it possible to write an ASP.NET app that can do certain SQL Server 2000 administration tasks, specifically add sql server users, and change sql server user passwords? Would it just be a matter of running the appropriate system stored procedures (sp_password, etc.), or does .NET provide any hooks into SQL Server for something like this? Thanks!

I'm new in the DBA position recently aquired, and I'm having a few issues with MSSQL configuration and administration.
1. I have created a two maintenance plans, one for system databases and another one for user databases, this plans include things such as, Integrity Checks, Optimizations and DB Backups, however the Integrity Checks fail with the error that the DB's must be in single user mode, how can I go about to make this and what are the implications of doing so?
2. There's been a few reports of MSSQL server compromises through UDP port 1433, so I closed it at firewall level, only TCP 1433 is going through, do I really need UDP 1433?
Thank you very much.

Sorry for starting a new thread on this subject but my situation is a bit different.
I want to connect to a remote SQL-server in a DIFFERENT domain, using Enterprise Manager. Whatever I try, I allways get an "SQLserver not found"-error.
The ASP's on the server that make use of the SQL server are functioning without any problems, so I guess the SQL-server itself is OK.
I tried:
servername = URL remote server
setting up a linked server
setting up a remote server
I'm a webdesigner and a newbe to SQLserver7. Please keep in mind I could be overseeing something that very obvious for you.
So what could be the problem. Any tips? Thanks!

Hi,
I am having a problem connecting my .net applications from the application server to the database server. When I run the application from my windows xp (sp2) box it works fine. When I try to connect via SQL Management Studio to the database server from the application server I get the same error.
Here is the error:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
Here is the Environment:
App Server:
Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition
Inside Company's Firewall/ Network
Database Server:
Windows Server 2000 Advanced Edition
SQL Server 2000 SP4
Remote Connections to the Server is checked
Enable Protocols: Named Pipes & TCP/IP
TCP/IP Port: 1402 (I don't know why it isn't the default of 1433)
The db server is sitting out side the Company's firewall (don't ask me why). I can access it fine from inside the firewall on my XP box but not from windows server 2003. There is a web server outside the our network that also connects to the db server with no problem and that is running Windows Server 2003 Web Edition.
I can ping the db server from the app server using the IP address.
I tried using the IP address and the port 1402 in my connection string but that didn't work from any machine (XP and Server).
I imagine the issue is somehow related to the company's firewall but why would it only block Windows Server 2003 and not XP?
What do I tell the network admin to change?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Oran

I am new to VWD, and web development. I installed VWD and SQL Server Express local.
I'm learning how to use the VWD with some of the walkthrough samples. It was going great until I got to the walkthrough where it show "how to use configure user and role with Web Site Admin Tool". I followed the walkthrough steps by step. I clicked the Security Tab and I got the following error:
"There is a problem with your selected data store. This can be caused by an invalid server name or credentials, or by insufficient permission. It can also be caused by the role manager feature not being enabled. Click the button below to be redirected to a page where you can choose a new data store. The following message may help in diagnosing the problem: Unable to connect to SQL Server database. "
I read some article. According to the articles, SQL Server Express will automatically create the asp database for the first time. but my SSE did not create the database.
What did you do wrong? Please help. Thank you

Hi all,
I think I can do this, just want to check
Can I have an sql server database (mdf file) on a server and allow windows applications at different site manipulate the database.
As far as I am concerned the only thing that needs to be configued is the connection string..is this correct.
[i would rather use windows applications rather than asp pages]
If I can, the best way to manipulate the database is to use stored procedures. How would I do the following to create and execute the following proposed procedure:
Insert data into a table
Update another table as a result
Execute the store procedure on a form to execute these two statements
Thanks in advance

Server Error in '/' Application.
Database 'C:INETPUBDEMO.TRUTHSTONE.COMAPP_DATAASPNETDB.MDF' cannot be upgraded because it is read-only or has read-only files. Make the database or files writeable, and rerun recovery.Cannot open user default database. Login failed.Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE'.
Hi,
Strange one. I have copied my working web-site to the production server and get this message.
Tried copying new set of database files and reset the server to ensure no applications could be accessing the database files. Still get the same error.
Works fine on my Visual Studio VWD Express version.

PS I am not trying to upgrade the database, just use it!

I have been programming an application with VC++ 2005 and SQL Server 2005. I have converted an old 16-bit database to 32-bit managed code and SQL server and the application seems to be good. Now I want to deploy the application to another server for testing.
I have installed XP SP2, Windows Installer 3.1, Net framework 2.0 and SQL Server 2005 express to the test server. I have transferred the application with WI 3.1 and the program works well in the test server till the first SQL command. I have made a back up of the database and restored it in the test server. In the test server I can log in the database with Server Management studio and I can read the data there correctly. I have enabled both named pipes and TCP/IP for the database in the test server. With Surface Area Configuration I have enabled Local and Remote Connections Using both TCP/IP and named pipes. I only need Windows authentication at this time.
After all this when I come to the first SQL command in the application on the test server I receive the error message:
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 €“ Could not open a connection to SQL Server).
My connection string to the database is:
'connection->ConnectionString = "Persist Security Info=False; Integrated Security =SSPI;"
"Data Source=TESTSERVER; Initial Catalog=TESTDATABASE;";'
When I use "Data Source=DevelopmentServer", the application works well on the development server.
Can't understand what is still wrong. Can you possibly have an answer for me?

Hi!
I have setup a database mirroring session without witness - ServerA is the principal, ServerB is the mirror,. Each SQL Server instance is hosted on its own machine on sql2005 EE SP2. The mirroring is working correctly. If I submit to server ServerA command:
ALTER DATABASE MYDBNAME SET PARTNER FAILOVER
, ServerB becomes the principal, it means that mirroring works correctly.
My issue is with the SQL Native Client and a front-end ASP application (actually IIS 6.0 site) that needs to make use of this database. I have setup my front-end application to use SQL Native Client and specified the failover server in connection string. Here is the connection string that I am using :
PROVIDER=SQLNCLI.1;Server=ServerA,1433;Failover Partner=ServerB,1433;Database=MYDBNAME;Network=dbmssocn;Integrated Security=SSPI;
Everything works perfectly on my front-end application when ServerA is the principal. If I execute on server ServerA command:
ALTER DATABASE MYDBNAME SET PARTNER FAILOVER
, ServerB becomes the principal, and the failover occurs correctly on the database side. The problem is that my front-end application is not able to query the database on ServerB. The error appears:
Microsoft SQL Native Client error '80004005'
Cannot open database "MYDBNAME" requested by the login. The login failed.
This behavior my appication till I unload IIS 6.0 pool application. After that my front-end application becomes work correctly with ServerB.
When I swap server, I execute on server ServerB command:
ALTER DATABASE MYDBNAME SET PARTNER FAILOVER,
my IIS 6.0 application automaticly turn back to ServerA without any action on my side.
I am using SQL Native Client last version http://download.microsoft.com/download/2/7/c/27c60d49-6dbe-423e-9a9e-1c873f269484/sqlncli.msi (issued in February 2007). Has anyone experienced this issue? I'm thinking that it's a problem in the SQL Native client

Hi All,
I am new to MS SQL SERVER 2005.
My web application using SQL Server 2005 as back end database to store all the information.
I am using connection pooling to get connection form db.
But my fron end user( user who logged in into webapplication) lost his identity b'coz for database user is application server.
Now I wanna to track front end user in db.
In oracle I can do it by using CLIENT_IDENTIFIER. But in sql server I don't know how to do it.
in oracle i can do it as below
public void setIdentity(Connection conn, String identity) {
PreparedStatement ps;
try {
ps =
conn.prepareCall("begin dbms_session.set_identifier(?); end;");
ps.setString(1, identity);
ps.execute();
ps.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
// Handle the exception
}
}
<!--[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]-->
once the transaction is complete, the application should reset the identity as follows:
public void clearIdentity(Connection conn) {
PreparedStatement ps;
try {
ps = conn.prepareCall("begin dbms_session.clear_identifier(); end;");
ps.execute();
ps.close();
} catch (SQLException e) {
// Handle the exception
}
}
<!--[if !supportLineBreakNewLine]-->
Please guide me for same.
