Which Is Better? Storing Data In The Database OR Storing It In The File System
Dec 29, 2006Hello there,I just want to ask if storing data in dbase is much better than storing it in the file system? Because for one, i am currenlty developing my thesis which uploads a blob.doc file to a web server (currently i'm using the localhost of ASP.NET) then retrieves it from the local hostAlso i want to know if im right at this, the localhost of ASP.NET is the same as the one of a natural web server on the net? Because i'm just thinking of uploading and downloading the files from a web server. Although our thesis defense didn't require us to really upload it on the net, we were advised to use a localhost on our PC's. I'll be just using my local server Is it ok to just use a web server for storing files than a database?
View 6 Replies View RelatedFILE DSN NOT STORING PASSWORD!
May 26, 1999HI,
We are using a VB component which utilises a FILE DSN to connect to SQL but we have noticed that when using SQL Authentication in setting up the DSN in the control panel the password does not get saved. So the only way we can connect is to have a user with no password i.e blank.
we only noticed this when we tried to use a user other than sa which happened to have a password that is blank.
Has anybody else found a solution to this problem ?

Retrieving And Storing File Timestamp
Feb 20, 2006I have a package that processes a flat file, which is generated by a separate system each weekday around 3:30AM. I would like my package to store the timestamp of the input file and compare it to the timestamp of the next day's file. If they are the same, then the package can exit without reprocessing a particular file again.
So, my first question is whether a package variable can be updated so that its value will persist from one run to the next?
Second, what is the syntax to retrieve the file's timestamp, either directly from the file connection manager or within a script task?
Thanks,
Phil

View 12 Replies View RelatedStoring Images In SQL Server Vs File System
Mar 5, 2007I am looking for some microsoft recommendation on storing images in SQL Server Vs File System. Here is what our requirement is.
Currently we are using SQL Server 2000 with a VB6(COM+) & ASP front end. Our architecture involves Log Shipping & Replication. We use log shipping for our DR site and Replication to replicate to Datawarehouse & DB2 enviornment. I have been trying to research this topic and have come up with opinion favoring both sides mostly file system but nobody seems to point any Microsoft recommendation.
With our application we are looking for Transactions, backups, Log shipping & replication with these images. I have read MS implementation of TerraServer and there they recommend storing them in SQL Server if above is required. (https://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/sql/2000/reskit/part3/c1161.mspx?mfr=true)
Can somebody please point me to some Microsoft recommendation and what does SQL Server 2005 offers in this aspect.

View 3 Replies View RelatedSpeeding Up Site By Storing Query Results In File
Mar 4, 2008Hello,
We have some queries that are long and intensive. We have thought about running the queries and storing the data in a text file for lookup from our website.
Example: Our online store only displays items that are in stock so when a user selects a category a query runs and grabs only items that are in stock and then displays them. There could be thousands of items the query needs to sort through before displaying the items that are in stock. What if we ran this query once every hours an stored the results in a txt file? The asp page would then go to the text file to grab the results instead of having to run the query every time a user selects a category. Will this speed up the site by not having to query every time? Would this be a correct way to eliminate queries that run thousands of times a day?
thanks

Error While Storing A Zip File With Size More Than 1MB In MS SQL Server 2005 Express
Aug 9, 2007I want to store a Zip file as a BLOB, but I get an error:
"File 'C:<path of mdf file> ' appears to have been truncated by the operating system. Expected size is 2560KB but actual size is 1536KB "
whenever the BLOB exceeds 1MB.
Any suggestions? How can I store larger .ZIP files to the Database?
I am using MS SQL 2005 Express and the data type that I gave for the column to store Blob is "varbinary(MAX)".
I am inserting byte array in to this field.
It works fine for a zip file less than 1MB but as soon as the zipped file size increases beyond 1MB, lots of error pop-up and then the database is not readable. Its says that, the data in the data base may have been corrupted...
Storing SID's In SQL 7.0
Dec 16, 1999I need to store a user ID of whoever made the last change to a record in a table. I have added a field with a default set to 'suser_sid()'.
Is it wise to store SID's in a database table if you are using NT authentication? My concerns are that if the user is deleted by the NT system administrator then I lose data integrety also if the database is backed up and restored onto a different machine with different users it won't work at all.
I'd be grateful for any help with this.

Storing Images
Jan 24, 2007Hi, can someone help me with this problem. I have recently downloaded VWD and have been playing around with it a bit. I was windering how do I add an image file to a SQL database. I have used SQL in the past but I have never store an image in it. I can add text data and so forth, but I need some pointers into adding images to the sql database. I want to be able to store the images and then retrieve them to a GridView. I have the images in an image folder within the website, but I do not know how to input the reference or link to the images in an sql table.
A quick example, say I have a table called Images, with the following info:imgID (int)imgDesc (varchar(max)imgFile (img)imgTitle (varchar(20))
To input this in sql I would write Insert Into Images (imgDesc,imgFile,imgTitle) Values ("Large fishy", "", "The Big Fish") what would I need to put for imgFile?
I would really appreciate if someone can point me in the right direction.

Oct 20, 2004My forms are taking user input, then HtmlEncoding them prior to being stored in the SQL DB. For some reason, SQL is storing quotes as � and it is causing the HTML when decoded in the page to not be rendered properly.
Has anyone come across this issue before?
For example (without encoding for readability):

but for some reason it's being stored as: <a href=�someurl� class=�main�>.

Can some one give SQL Statement on storing images from disk to the database columns.
Once I store the image how do I test it out that the image is stored correctly?
For example this is what I did
I have a table called table1., field called name
insert into table1(name) values(C:123.bmp)
Is the above statement correct? will it store the file or not?
if it does store them then how do I view them?
