View 1 Replies View RelatedHi all,Here is my situation.I have an application that uses SQL 2000. The client has a programthat uses MSDE. The client MUST have the MSDE version of the Database.What I have done is to create a SQL 2000 Database that is exactly likethe MSDE version. What I wish to do, is at regularly scheduledintervals, update the SQL 2000 Data with the newest MSDE Data.On my clients server, they have both MSDE and SQL 2000 installedthe msde has a user name and password to access it, whereas the SQL2000 uses authenticated mode to access it.What I'm trying to do is to write a bunch of SQL Queries, that I canrun that will copy over the new Data, but I'm having problems accessingthe msde database in query analyzer from the SQL DatabaseCan anyone give me hints on the best way to try thisThanksScott

Hi,Ive been building a project on a local server and now need to transfer the files and database over to the live server. I have managed to transfer the files quite easily, however I am having a few problems transferring the database using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio. When I try importing data to the live database, all the data and tables are brought across however some of the values for the fields are lost. For example all the fields which had a primary key no longer have one, and all the set default values for the fields are also lost. Ive been considering just going through every table in the database and re-entering the correct values for the fields, but this seems a bit time consuming and I'm also concerned about possible errors which could arise as there will be an inconsistency.Another method I tried was copying the SQL query across which created all the tables and the correct values for the fields. However when I tried to import the data an error was produced as you cannot import data into a table which has read only fields etc..Does anyone know a solution?Thanks for your time.

I need to transfer a database (contining one table) containing over 35 million records from one server to another. I have two options at present :
(a) Use DTS to do the transfer
(b) Copy the mdf file across and sp_attach_db it
Does any1 have a better idea, or does any1 know which of the two methods will be the quickest?
TIA

I have a SSIS package that transfers a couple of tables from one database to another database on the same server. It works fine in most of the machines we tested with. However on one of the customer machines, it consistently fails with the error message, The Return value was unknown. The process exit code was -1073741795. The step failed.
This package runs as a scheduled job on the sql agent. When i did a sql profiler to see what is going on, i noticed that the last step before the bulk insert, it gets the collation and the schema id of the 2 tables. My guess is, it compares these values from the source and destination databases and makes sure everything is ok before copying.
On a machine where this works, it goes ahead with the the next step which is the bulk insert itself. Whereas on the machines where it doesn't work, it stops right after this step. i.e. it does not even bother to call the 'bulk insert' api. Which makes me think it is doing some kind of validation with these values and it is getting something that is not expected.
If the collation or the schema was an issue, why throw an 'return value unknown' error? Can the error be more specific?
Any other possible reasons for such a behavior? Any clues?
Thanks

I set up a basic Transfer Database task (online, copy) to copy a DB. It works great except for the fact that it isn't transferring the PK's and FK's. It also looks like it did not transfer the views. Any idea why? Anything else the Transfer Database task doesn't actually transfer?

I created some databases on my pc at work (using Visual Web Developer 2005 and Microsoft SQL Server Express), I now wish to move them onto my home machine, Can I do this by simply copying the .MDF files and then moving them into the App_Data folder of my new app?
Do MDF files contain everything (schema, data, stored procedures etc) or am I missing something?
Cheers, Adam
In Sql 6.5 there was an option to Transfer the db. I used this quite often to make a duplicate test db of my production db. Under 7.0 I haven't found it so easy to do this. DTS wizard hasn't worked well for me. I can get it to transfer tables but not all of the objects. Any ideas? Thanks.

This is the situation: I had a SQL 6.5 server with some databases. I still have access to the .dat files, however, SQL 6.5 will not start anymore. Is it possible to copy the .dat files to the new sql 7 server and somehow get them imported into the new SQL 7 server? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Hi Everyone,
Have anyway come across any easy method of transfers DTS packages across two servers which are existing on two different networks.
I haven't been able to use the method mentioned in article "DTS How to...Transfer Packages between Servers.." since the two servers I'm trying to move TO and move FROM are on two different networks which aren't visible to each other for my to register from the same box.
Appreciate if someone to point me to a means of doing this or any articles that explain how to do this..
thank you
Hi,
We have a SQL 6.5 database that was expanded larger than was really necessary. I have created a smaller size database and am wondering what the easiest way would be transfer ALL of the data and objects from the existing database into the new one.
Is SQL transfer manager reliable? Are there any better ways?
Thanks,
Sundar.
While doing a database transfer between servers (using transfer manager), it does not copy all of my stored procedures. Any ideas?

I'm having a problem when I transfer my locally developed MS SQL server db to my hosts server.
I am logging into the host server and then importing the tables and data from my local machine. All the tables and data then get transferred alright but the ID colums lose the primary key and identity setting and any default values in the table structure also get lost.
This means I then have to go through each table on the host server an put things straight. A pain in the bum... I've tried creating the table structure using a SQL script which keeps the ID colum but not the default values.
Why is this happening and how can I resolve it?
Thanks in advance
Phil
hope some one can help me
i have a couple of tables interlinked, and in one table it has a column named contact with such info in as S Smith, John Burn.
and i need to split this up, so it can go into a number of other columns in another table, such as initials, name surname.
the best ive come up with so far is, isnt very good.
thanx in anticipation

Hello,
I have a table on one server that I would like to copy over to another server. I have done the full backup and restore, however that seems to overwrite the formatting on all of my existing tables. As there are some differences in the tables between servers, I would prefer to not have to do the full restore. I have been able to use the SQL export utility to copy a table from one database to another on the same server, but I was wondering how that can be done between different servers with different Windows logins.
Thanks for any help anyone can provide.
I need some advice on copying databases, stored procedures, views, logins ..etc from a SQL Serevr 7.0 server, to a new SQL Server 2000 server.
Is it better to backup the databases on one server and then restore them to the other. Or id it easier to use the Wizards to Import everything from new server, or to Export everything from the old server ?
Any advice would be appreciated. I need to ensure that I do not miss anything, in particular Stored Procedures in the old master database.
If you are transferring to a new server is there a good way to transfer SQLAgent jobs in bulk. Scripting out and in is one way, is there a better way

When I attempt to move a package to another server, or sometimes just try to open it on another server, I get the useless message "The parameter is incorrect". All of my connections are valid on the new machine, and even if they weren't I should be able to correct them in design mode on the new server. This is REALLY making it difficult to design a package on the development server, then move it into production.
View 1 Replies View Relatedwe have a situation where modifications to the stored procs and views keep happening in the development databse environ while there is a live production database also up and running.
periodically we need to ensure that the development and the production are in synch where all changes made to dev are transferred to prod. however the entire prod database obviously cannot be overwritten as it contains production data. therefore what we need to do is to transfer all SPs and Views from the development to prodn. ( we do not prefer incremental transfers as there are many SPs and views and we can never really be sure that all changes have been transferred )
the obvious way is to script out all SPs and views in dev and run the scripts in prodn. but what we encountered was the enterprise manager does not script out the objects in heirarchical sequence - ie parent objects first and then the objects that refer the parent objects. this leads to errors when running the scripts as the objects required for the creation of a SP, say another SP run from within that SP , may not have been generated by then as the "contained" SP is lower in the alphabetical order in which SQL server scripted out the objects.
finally we had to look at each and every error and manually set the process right.
moreover in the way we did things the "sysdepends" table got all screwed up and therefore we can no longer depend on enterprise manager to show dependencies within the database.
is there any elegant way of going about this ? we also tried transfer manager in DTS but it also gave the same error. moreover can the sysdepends table be rebuilt from scratch ?
I am looking at a way to transfer data from a SQL server into an AS/400. If possible can the data be continously transferred to the AS/400 or are there time constraints that will limit it to say once every two hours.

How are the SQL Server logins transferred ?
