URGENT: Problems With Guest User In SQL 2005 Restoring Databases From Sql 2000
Sep 18, 2006
Hi all.
I don't know if this is the right forum to post this question, but here it goes.
We have restored into sql 2005 the database backups made in sql 2000. We connect with trusted connection and application roles, and when trying to execute a transaction to another database (with the guest user), we get a permission error.
Does anyone know if, apart from restoring the databases, we should do something else to get the guest user working the same way as with sql 2000 in the restored databases?
Thanks in advance for your help.

Below query tells us if guest user is enabled or disabled in a particular database
SELECT dp.name, CASE perms.class WHEN 0 THEN 'Yes' ELSE 'No' END AS 'Enabled'
FROM sys.database_principals dp
LEFT JOIN (SELECT grantee_principal_id, class FROM sys.database_permissions
WHERE class = 0 AND type = 'CO' AND state = 'G') AS perms
ON dp.principal_id = perms.grantee_principal_id
WHERE dp.name = 'guest';
Do we have a query which can also add the database name to above query output? The output must have columns with data against Name,Enabled,Database name

I would like to know if its OK to restore a SQL 7 user database to SQL 2000.
I have looked into Books On Line, with no success.
Anyone know where I might find some documentation on this topic?
Many thanks in advance.

Hello,
Does anyone else ever experience this problem, and if so do you know what causes it:
When ever I restore a database called say XXX.mdf, it restores OK and I can view via MSE as XXX.mdf. Then when I visit MSE again there is another database called C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataXXX.mdf - both are linked to the same .mdf file, however if you try to expand XXX.mdf nothing happens as though the database has been detached?

I have a question regarding moving databases within the same server but to a different drive. Using the 'Alter Database' query transaction procedures within the SQL Server Management Studio, I'm able to take a user database offline and move it. However, when using the Alter transaction to bring the database back online, I get errors. There was also an attempt that seemed to work, but the app that uses the database through ODBC can't see the database that was moved and errors out.
How can databases be moved and connections re-established within the same server?
Thanks...

In SQL2K5 guest user can not be dropped from ANY databases. How ever we can use the following command to disable it.
USE <Database Name>
GO
REVOKE CONNECT FROM GUEST
GO
How to find in a DB, whether guest user is disable or not, using TSQL?

Nel database "master" ho mappato, per errore, l'utente "guest" su unutente sql "XXX" creato in SQLServer.Questo tipo di impostazione non permette pił di aver accesso conl'utente anonimo "guest" (mappato su null) al db (con autorizzazionilimitate al ruolo public).Ho provato sia da EM che con le varie SP a rimuovere l'utente, amapparlo su un'altro utente, ... ma non sono riuscito a ripristinarela situazione di partenza.Mi servirebbe una idea per non dover effettuare il backup di tutti idb, disinstallare SQLServer, reinstallare SQLServer e fare il restoredi tutti i db (soluzione possibile ma che tengo come ultimaspiaggia!!).Grazie

Hi all,
I'm kinda stuck with the following issue and would apreciate some help with it.
Basically i need to have a user within SQL that has rights to restore databases and is the owner of that database so it can alter the data. The problem i face is that at this moment i see no other way then making that user either member of the server role "sysadmin" or "serveradmin".
Anyway, these roles have to much rights. I tried using the dbcreator role which will make a the needed user db_owner but only when a new database is created, not when a database is restored.
Tried to resolve this with a DDL trigger and then temporarily run as a user with serveradmin rights, however there is no system event for restore database, so that doesn't work either.
Anybody got any suggestions?

I've used the following:
EXEC sp_MSforeachdb 'USE [?];
REVOKE CONNECT FROM GUEST;'
GO
And this is what I get:
Msg 15182, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
Cannot disable access to the guest user in master or tempdb.
Msg 15182, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
Cannot disable access to the guest user in master or tempdb.
Msg 15151, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
Cannot find the user 'GUEST', because it does not exist or you do not have permission.
Msg 15151, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
Cannot find the user 'GUEST', because it does not exist or you do not have permission.
Msg 15151, Level 16, State 1, Line 2
Cannot find the user 'GUEST', because it does not exist or you do not have permission.
When I do this:
EXEC sp_MSforeachdb 'USE [?];
SELECT ''[?]'' AS DBName,* FROM sysusers;'
GO
The guest sid for all tables shows 0x00, is this the reason I get above errors?

Everytime I reboot my sql server 2000 the guest account on tempdb is gone, but the guest account on master remains.
Can anyone offer my any ideas how I can stop that from happening?

I've read a bunch of articles saying you should always remove the guest user from the user databases and model. It seems to me that if a user only has public access then the user can't do anything on the database. If the guest user only has public access to a user database how is it a security threat? I must be missing something.

Hello,
I'm having an issue with stored procedures after restoring a db from 2000 -> 2005.
If any stored procedures isnt owned by dbo (eg tomsqluser.updateItems rather than dbo.updateItems) then it just wont work and Studio Management Server doesnt give the permission to change it to dbo.
Is there any way around this after restoring?

Hi Guys,
I have two servers at my site out of which one is our production server (on SQL 2000) and the other being a reporting server (SQL 2005). Now the question i have are the following..
Q1) Can i restore an hourly differential backup of my SQL 2000 to SQL 2005?
Q2) If yes, are there any specific way i need to go about it other than the conventional Restore with NoRecovery option?
Q3) If the answer is no to Q1, then is there any 3rd party software that does this(restoring differentials from 2000 to 2005)?
I had tried this once some time back and at that time it failed to keep the database in a state(norecovery) where in it would accept timely differential db restoration.
Appreciate your help

I did a backup of a SQL2000 database (named Winstis) using the 2005 management studio. I then created a blank database on my 2005 instance (named Winstis). I then tried to do a database restore to the new 2005 database. I got an error:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The backup set holds a backup of a database other than the existing 'Winstis' database. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
I even tried the option to Overwrite Existing database and I got a different error:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The operating system returned the error '32(The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.)' while attempting 'RestoreContainer::ValidateTargetForCreation' on 'D:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLData est.ldf'. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
Also the 2005 instance database is on C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataWinstis_Data.mdf
and the 2000 instance is on
D:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLDataWinstis_Data.mdf
How can I accomplish getting the database from 2000 to 2005 with all tables, store procedures, and functions?

Hi all,
We are experiencing major performance issues after restoring SQL Server 2000 db into newly setup hardware environment. The application is faster on another environemnt running on Windows 2000 server with SQL Server 2000.
We have replicated exact same hardware setup, but only fifference is we are running latest version windows server (2003) and latest version of SQL Server (2005). So far we have troubleshooted the bottleneck to be one of the trigger that is inserting data into a table in one of the stored procedures. The same SP takes 9 mins to execute whereas on our env it takes around one hour. If I disable the trigger it executes in 2 minutes.
After restoring, we have executed
exec sp_updatestats
DBCC UPDATEUSAGE
DBCC DBREINDEX all tables
Set Compatibility level to SQL SERVER 2005 (90).
Now we are installing latest Service Pack for both OS and SQL Server.
Any ideas?
Your help is appreciated.

Hello,
Is it possible to restore a SQL 2000 backup with Binary Order collation to a new SQL 2005 installation with Dictionary order, case-insensitive. Is this something I can do during the restore process or would I need to change it after?
Thanks in advance,

I have to merge the data from two databases, one is in SQL Server 2005 format, one is in 2000. The merged data will then reside on a SQL Server 2000 platform. Is there an easy way to do this through Management Studio or Enterprise Manager? Or will we have to export the data from the 2005 database to a flat file and import it into a new 2000 database. And then do the merge?
TIA

Hi,
I have a database that is in the SQL Server 2000 compatability mode on my SQL 2005 server. I am trying to restore a backup of this database on my SQL Server 2000 database on another server and keep getting strange messages. First trying Red-Gate and then plain SQL Server with no luck.
It seems as I remember that the 7.0 and 2000 compatibility issue between backups did not arise when the compatibility mode was set to 7.0.
Is this "planned" behavior or an "undocumented feature"??? Anyone else have success doing this?
Thanks,
John Campbell

Hi All,
I was trying to restore MSDE 2000 database to SQL 20005 EE and I got stuck with the following error:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: RESTORE detected an error on page (xxxx:xxxxxx) in database 'testdb' as read from the backup set.
Do you think some pages are corrupt from the db or the backup set?
Has anybody come across this? Any ideas to resolve this error?
Thanks,
Siva.

I just restored my SQL server 2000 database on the SQL server 2005. after this i ran the Service broker sample ("Hello World") on this database by changing the AdventureWorks name to the new database name. The "setup.sql" runs fine. When i run the "SendMessage.sql" i was not getting any rows in the output (The message was not getting inserted into the queue). I checked the Service broker is enabled on this databased using the query "select is_broker_enabled from sys.databases where name = 'newdbname' " It was 1. I even tried the ALTER DATABASE SET ENABLE_BROKER. but it didnt work.
When i tried the sample on a newly created database it worked fine.
Is there any solution to make the restored database to work for service broker.
Thanks

We have a set of databases some are fully read-only others have read-only file groups, is there any way to restore backups of these taken on an MSDE 2000 to an SQL Express 2005 instance?
When doing the inplace upgrade we change these to read-write before the upgrade and set them back after the upgrade.
These databases are used in the field by customers althought the controlled upgrade requires a backup before (and blocks if it fails) and tries a backup after if the post upgrade backup fails (due to disk space) we might need to recover from this odd situation.
The only solution I have is install MSDE some place restore to this then do the controlled upgrade again, any other ideas?

Hello,
I am trying to migrate reporting services from SQL server 2000 to SQL 2005. I followed the migration steps listed in one of the TechNet documents. Installed SQL 2005 and SP2.
Backed up existing SQL 2000 databases and restored on SQL 2005.
Went to Configuration tool and then to the Database setup. Connected to SQL 2005.
Clicked on the Upgrade button. The upgrade fails and I always get the following errors:
"The database version (C.0.6.54) does not match your reporting services installation. You must upgrade your Reporting services database"
Then I get this exception:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Cannot find the user 'RSExecRole', because it does not exist or you do not have permission.
at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection)

I do not understand why it is looking for user 'RSExecRole', which is a role.
Appreciate your help

Hi all,
I have setup a new SQL 2000 SP4 and internal auditor query about revoke permission from Public role and remove guest from all databases.
1. Can I revoke all default permissions (select on system tables in all DBs) from "Public" role? I am concern any error after such action.
2. I found that guest account in DB -- master, tempdb and msdb. According to Microsoft documents. The account should not remove and can't from master and tempdb. How about msdb?
Thanks,

Good Day,
I am having a problem with creating databases in MS SQL 2005 Server. When I attempt to assign an User Mapping for my SQL user account to the newly created database, the "dbo" user and schema is already assigned. When I try to drop this user in favor of my own, I receive an error message: Cannot alter the user "dbo" (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 15150). I am connected to my database engine through the "sa" account.

Hi, I have recently qualified as a MCITP - DBA with SQL 2005, but as I have no commercial experience, have been strugglling to get into the industry. However, I have finally been offered an interview on Monday. The problem is that the company use 2000, not 2005. I think I am pretty much up to speed on the differences, but was wondering (nay, pleading) if anybody could let me know the main commands for analysing query performance and index statistics etc, with a reference to thier equivalent DMV in 2005 (which I am totaly familiar with) This is something I could easily pick up whilst doing the job, but I am aware that there will be an SQL test to asses my knowledge during the interview and I am desperate not to get caught out. Please help!

Hi,
I have just installed SQL 2005 client tools and management studio to register SQL 2000 databases. Although it registers the servers successfully , I can't see any activity monitor on the SQL 2000 registered server . Is it something more that I have to install to see what's happening ?
Thanks in advance.
