Hi:
A very stupid question but want to see if i have an answer.
Is it possible to run SQL Server Service and SQL Server Agent Service under local system(not Domain account) without granting SA Permissions on the server. is it ever possible to run by just granting some registry permissions and not making BUILTINAdministrators a SA on the server.
Thx

Hi There
I am doing an unattended upgrade of Sql Express with Advanced Services SP1.
Before the upgrade the services run under domain accounts.
I use the following command :
start /wait setup UPGRADE=SQL_Engine INSTANCENAME=MSSQLSERVER SQLACCOUNT=DOMAINUser SQLPASSWORD=p@ssw0rd ADDLOCAL=Client_Components,SQL_SSMSEE /qn
However after the ugrade the service accounts are running under local system.
Documentation is unclear, i find the following:
; The services for SQL Server and Analysis Server are set auto start. To use the *ACCOUNT settings
; make sure to specify the DOMAIN, e.g. SQLACCOUNT=DOMAINNAMEACCOUNT
; NOTE: When installing SQL_Engine 3 accounts are REQUIRED: SQLACCOUNT, AGTACCOUNT and SQLBROWSERACCOUNT.
; SQLACCOUNT Examples:
; SQLACCOUNT=<domainuser>
; SQLACCOUNT="NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM"
; SQLACCOUNT="NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE"
; SQLACCOUNT="NT AUTHORITYLOCAL SERVICE"
To my knowledge the <> is not required.
Can someone please help as i cannot get the services accounts to run under a domain user after upgrade.
Thanx
During install of SQL Server 2005, we can of course use a domain account or the built-in system account for running the services. I lean toward domain for obvious reaons but would like to know a +/- to each option and why I'd choose one over the other and what consequences or limitations one may encounter if I choose one over the other.

Can anyone tell me what the drawbacks are of doing this?
Hello!
Hopefully someone can help me.
I have scripts to refresh database as SQL daily jobs. (O.S is Win2K3 and SQL server 2000 and SP4) It was worked and I got the following message this morning from SQL error log.

Hello,
I need help with the setup of my sql server express 2005 and more specifically, with the location of the database files. Normally, database files are located on the c: drive. In my situation, being in a high school environnement, I need to have the database files on the network drive ... lets call it g:drive. The reason why it cannot be on c:drive is because this drive is protected using DeepFreeze. Now, I was able to change the location of the new drive as I went into the properties window of the sql server instance but when I try to create this new database, sql gives me grief ;-|
I am from the group of people that thinks that to anything, there is a solution and am hoping that to this problem, there is hope of a solution.
Can anyone help?
Thank you
This is regarding general protection of a database hosted on a network. I am developing a database application for my college library using VB.NET, that will reside on a network.
For some reasons, I did not want to hardcode the Database location in the application. Instead, when a user logs in, he can choose the database location using a folder browser control, if the location has changed.
Now, I realize that for this, I have to put the database in a shared folder, which makes it quite vulnerable. Having pondered over the problem for sometime, a solution that comes to my mind is to place a Text file in the same shared folder that always contains the correct path of the database. When a user chooses that folder, I will read the actual path of the database from the text file, and move the database to a non-shared folder.
I haven't yet implemented this approach, but felt it better to consult someone before. So, would this approach work, and is it a good idea.
For information purposes, I consider it important to mention that the database is in MS Access. I know this is not a place for discussing it, but this is a general security concern. So, I thought
people would not mind answering it....
Hi,
I have created an sql server 2005 maintenance plan for a daily backup. The plan has two 'Back up database task' i.e. one backup on the local drive while the second on a network drive. When the plan is executed, a backup is created on the local drive but not on the network drive. If i check the log, it says "Access Denied" whereas i have full access to the network drive with complete permissions to read, write and delete.
Can anyone help me understand how to take a backup on both a local and network drive at the same time using a maintenance plan ? I shall be obliged...
Regards...
Hi, i need some help, i have a problem trying to access data in my local network.
I have a PC with ms windows server 2003 and ms sql server 2000, and i want that the others PC in the network can access the data. I installed the client sql server in the others PC, but i can't make it work. What i have to do?
Thanks
We are trying to determine what SQL Server 2000 Edition is required for our environment. We really don't need any of the features that Enterprise Edition offers over Standard Edition, except that our disk storage is on a System Area Network (SAN). BOL says that SAN is not supported under Standard Edition, but I am under the impression, that if we are not using distributed queries or replication, then Enterprise Edition is not neccessary.
Any help?
I am trying to upgrade the SQL Server 6.5 on one server to SQLServer2000 on the other machine.At that time, i am getting the following error:"The local SQL Server is running under localsystem priviledges,preventing the upgrade wizard to connect to the export server."I am logged on thru the administrator on both the machines.Pls tell how to to eradicate this error, so that my upgrade issuccessful.Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Is it possible to set up database mirroring between two servers that have SQL Service running under Local system? I tried to setup mirroring between two servers running under Local system but was running into the following error:
Server or Network address cannot be reached or does not exist.
What are the pre-requisites for setting up database mirroring if the service runs under Local system? Do I have to configure certificates? Is that mandatory? Can anyone please let me know. Any other gotchas?
Thanks

I have an application I developled for a shopping cart function using Wrox ASP.NET book as a guide. I have everything working great on my local system using SQL 2005 Express. When I move the app to an IIS 6.0 Web Server with SQL 2005 Express installed I get the following error.
Line 103: Public Overridable Property Cart() As Wrox.Commerce.ShoppingCartLine 104: GetLine 105: Return CType(Me.GetPropertyValue("Cart"),Wrox.Commerce.ShoppingCart)Line 106: End GetLine 107: Set
It has some comments up top about not being able to establish a connection to the SQL Express Database. I have made the changes to allow TCP/IP and Named-Pipes
The App has to be connecting to the database because it displays grid views during the order process.
The Database is located in the App Data folder
IIS is set to Integrated Authentication and configured as a Web Application.
Can someone please tell me what is wrong.
thanks.....

I can schedule my task in DTS provided my sql server agent runs in the same windows authentication as of the windows login(specified the user name and pass word in the logon properties of sql server agent) and DTS package owner.
it is failing when i run with local system account. why is that so.
is there any way to do it.
If not is there any document stating this.
Please guide me.

Hi folks.
When installing SQLServer 2005 Express, I use the following command line:
cmdline = " /qb ADDLOCAL=SQL_Engine,SQL_Data_Files SECURITYMODE=SQL INSTANCENAME=MyServer SAPWD=MyPwd DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=0 SQLAUTOSTART=1 requiresmsiengine=1"
I noticed that when installing on a Windows XP machine, the installation results in a SQLServer instance which is configured with Built-in account = Network Service. However, with the same command line used on Windows 2000 machines, the configuration winds up being Built-in account = Local System. My understanding is that the default configuration is supposed to be Local System.
What can I do to ensure that the instance configuration is always Local System during the silent installation? This is required otherwise, under the Network Service configuration, it creates a messy situation to attach DBs.
Thanks!

Hi. can anybody suggest command line option to install sql express 2005 under local system account? currently it defaults to 'Network service'.
Thanks in advance.
2 Questions:
1) I am getting back into SQL more than before, in my new job. I need to find the service pack installed on the clients who have the Client Network Utility installed. I do not remember how to do this.
2) Running 'Select @@VERSION' on the server returns 7.00.1063 but does not indicate the service pack. Does this still mean sp4 has been installed?
I'm trying to ensure we'll all up to date since our dual 700 procs are acting eratic...jumps between 10 - 95% or so.
Server info:
NT Server SP6
SQL 7.0
2GB Ram
2 procs @ 700Mhz
Roughly 80 network connections.
No other programs running on server except Antivirus.
Thank you!

Hello All,
I am installing SQL Server Express from the command line using the following parameters
INSTANCENAME=MSSQLSERVER ADDLOCAL=ALL SECURITYMODE=SQL DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=0 SAPWD=TEST
After the install is done I start the service form the command prompt using
start mssqlserver
I see that the SQL Server service has started under NETWORK SERVICE account!!! when the documentation i Read on MSDN says it starts in Local System account
Can any one explain me the possible reasons
Thanks
Is this possible?
here is the situation. I have a DB on one system. I back it up and then restore it to a second system. This second system I run reports off of and I want to create custom views that do not exist on the original system. Can I restore the
backup DB from the remote system without wiping out the custom views on the local system?
I have to do this this way as they won't let us create the views we want on the remote system so the only way we have access to run the reports is by restoring the backup locally.
TIA!

Dear all
I have developed some packages (around 40) on my local system.
now i m trying to move the integration services project on the production server.
when i double click on the intergration services from the local drive of the server all the packages are up(works fine till here)
now i open any of the package-->this is what happens
Prompt1)-->TITLE: Microsoft Visual Studio
------------------------------
There were errors while the package was being loaded.
The package might be corrupted.
See the Error List for details.
------------------------------
BUTTONS:
OK
------------------------------
i press ok and then the prompt comes
Prompt2-->There were build errors.Do you want to continue with the last build and continue..yes..no..
i click yes ..and then error comes
prompt3-->
Error loading RTS-IMRB-DISTRIBUTION.dtsx: The connection "Excel Connection Manager" is not found. This error is thrown by Connections collection when the specific connection element is not found.
and finally the prompt for the OLE DB error
prompt 4-->[OLE DB Destination [14]] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_CANNOTACQUIRECONNECTIONFROMCONNECTIONMANAGER. The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "NDELNTX46.IMRB RTS.siddharth" failed with error code 0xC0202009. There may be error messages posted before this with more information on why the AcquireConnection method call failed.
Possible work around suggested to me was that in the base system(read local) before exporting go to package properties and the security and set the security as "Encrypt all with password" and also put some Password which i did and it worked for one.
other thing i thought off was creating the configuration file but first i thought of fully running one complete package on the production and then think of the configuration file.
so i went inside the invidual excel connection and pointed it to the correct new file location and also edited the OLE DB database connection and put my user name and password and checked save password and trying to run the entire thing.
but still the same problem..
one more thing i observed was that my OLE DB was going off everytime i am running the package.and i have to enter my password again...so othe save password i guess is not working
I know its a little long post..but i wanted to explain the entire process and problem to all with description.
all suggestions are welcome
Thanks in advance
cheers & Happy new year

Hi, all experts here,
Thank you very much for your kind attention.
I am wondering if we could back up the databases to any place outside of the local server system? As I found, we can only back up the database to the local server system, so we have needs to share databases on network places. Is there any method to back up the database on network place rather than first of all I have to back up the database on a local server system, then copy it to the network place, that just sounds really inconvenient.
Thanks a lot in advance for your help and I am looking forward to hearing from you shortly.
With best regards,
Yours sincerely,
I have the Image in FTP Server Folder and i need to insert that image into my local database.
How can i do this I tried with the below Query but i shows the errors as below.

I am on an XP Pro 32-bit laptop, running SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition. I want to import an Excel spreadsheet into one of my databases using (formerly known as) DTS. The Excel spreadsheet was created in 2003 (I have Office 2007 installed on this laptop). Whenever I try and do any OleDb import, I get the error:
TITLE: SQL Server Import and Export Wizard
------------------------------
The operation could not be completed.

I cannot install/reinstall MDAC because I have the latest version. What else can I try?
As additional information, I also get the error when trying to import anything into or export anything out of Access 2007. I'm pretty sure MDAC is awful, but I still need OleDb providers for much of the work I am doing.
Numerous articles (e.g., http://www.microsoft.com/sql/techinfo/administration/2000/security/securingsqlserver.asp, even one that I wrote, http://www.dbazine.com/sql/sql-articles/cook12) state that to secure SQL Server, the SQL Server services should not run as Local System. That advice is useful only if making the change is not overly disruptive or is even allowable. My two most recent clients have absolutely rigid password expiration policies that require all account passwords to be changed at regular intervals. Realistically, that makes a compelling case for running as Local System.
