User Log-on, Allowing Administrator Only

Apr 18, 2006

Please forgive my post, as I am not a network tech, however I provide pc support to the city offices where I live and they are in need of help.

Physical box and pc's moved to a new location. All setup with proper cabling, etc. At first log on after the move all users to log on as normal, a day or two later, only the Administrator can log on and there is only one administrator profile.

Any duh quick fixes to check out, as this brings down 4 city offices.

Thanks in advance.

Help:SQLExpress User Instance Fails For Normal User; Works For Administrator

Jan 22, 2008

I'm using the RTM version of Visual Studion 2008 and SQLServer Express.

Logged in as an administrator, I can create a connection to an mdf file and all is well.

As a normal user, attempting to create a connection gives the message "sqlservr.exe has stopped working A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."

I have tried this with UAC turned on and turned off. The result is the same. In Services I can see that SQLEXPRESS is running, but each time I try to connect, I get the "stopped working" message.

For existing database programs that have the .mdf file stored in the project folder, I can run the program in the VS IDE on my XP machine and on my Vista machine as administrator, but not as a normal user.

I'm not looking for a workaround to make this work once, but the cause and solution to the problem. This is for an introductory VB textbook and we must be able to move a database program from one machine to another and make it work. Everything I have read says that SQLExpress should be able to do that.

Can anyone help me with this?

Allowing A User Access To Only A Few Tables

Jul 20, 2005

With MS SQL 2000 Enterprise Manager, is there a way to allow a user accessto only a few tables, but deny the user access to the rest without having togo to all of the tables and denying access? The database has roughly 50tables, but only 3 should be granted to the new user, so as you can see itwould be a painstaking task to manually do this with the *cough* mouse. Or,if I can run some sort of grant script, that would work too. Thank you!

How To Avoid The Need Of Adding User In Administrator Group.

Oct 5, 2006

Hi,

I've created an rdl report in reporting services 2005. Report is working fine. I've deployed this report on SQL Server 2005. The problem is this that to access the reports from client, I need to add client's login ID in Administrator user's group os server. If I dont add them in that group, it shows following error:

"The permissions granted to user 'loginname' are insufficient for performing this operation. (rsAccessDenied)".

This solution works fine in development but in actual environment, I can't add users in that group. Can anyone tell me how to view reports without adding user in administrator group. Its urgent.

Looking forward for help.

SQL 2K5 Not Allowing Connection From Win Service

May 28, 2008

Hi All,

I have written a windows service using VB.NET that connects to a database and performs several tasks. The service is working correctly and has been fully tested against SQL Server 2000. I have recently moved to SQL Server 2005 and now, the service will not connect to the database.

I have setup and tried several different users, but none work, I get the following message:

Login failed for user 'OEESYSTEMS'

The server instance, username and password I specify are all correct.

The service is running on the same server as SQL Server. I can connect through a web application, and through ODBC. The server is set to use SQL server and windows authentication, and is setup and successfully allows remote connections.

It looks like SQL server sees that a windows service is trying to connect and does not allow it.

For the love of god, can anyone help with this issue.

Thank you.

Allowing Null Values

Aug 1, 2007

I have a flat file that I'm reading from and loading my tables with. In that file I have a column that has numbers (2000,1999,1998 and so on) and the column that they are being loaded into is defined as an INT. The issue I'm running into is that the first 50 or so rows in the flat file is empty for this column so I'm getting an error message. If I put numbers in that column in the flat file it works, if i remove them it fails. How can I allow for NULL values for my INT column on the database table?

here is the error I'm getting:

[OLE DB Destination [182]] Error: There was an error with input column "SalesYear" (7259) on input "OLE DB Destination Input" (195). The column status returned was: "The value could not be converted because of a potential loss of data.".

Ask For Password Prior To Allowing Access

Nov 13, 2003

I am trying to make a connection to sql server using sspi (windows authentication), however, I do not wish to use the built in tokenauthentication system. Administrators are worried about somebody using an unattended logged on computer to gain access to the database. So I am left with using sql server authentication (which I am not fond of doing, more password administration) or what I would like to do is use windows authentication but make the user enter thier windows password prior to logging into sql server. Is there a way? Thanks in Advance.

Allowing Users To Edit Database

Jul 11, 2006

I'm relatively new to administering SQL Server, hence this basic question.

What are the standard practice tool(s)/methods for allowing users access to a database to edit data? In this case, these are engineers (not programmers) that need to edit some values. The practice in the past has been to install Enterprise Manager on their PC. However, this does not seem proper to me and I was thinking more along the lines of having them use Access instead.

I compare Enterpise Manager in SQL Server as an equilvalent to Enterprise Manager in Oracle - these are tools only for use by database administrators. Is this a correct correlation, or is Enterpise Manager in SQL Server a tool that users (and programmers?) are commonly allowed to use? In the case of common users, I would think not.

Thanks in advance.

Is there anyway to allow SQL Server users to change their own passwords without giving them rights to "db_securityadmin" ?

Is there any easier method, reference, download sample from the web?

Allowing Remote Connections During Setup?

Aug 29, 2006

Is there a way to automatically setup SQL Server Express to allow remote connections during the installation process?

We are deploying SQL Server Express with our application and I really can't ask SMB customers to go through a series of rather complicated steps after our "turn key" setup installs everything in order for any of the other computers in their office to connect.

What's the reasoning behind that, anyway? Why create a database server setup which by default doesn't allow anyone except the server to access it? I guess that makes sense for ASP.NET but the web fad isn't the only platform developers use these days.

Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,

Evan

Alter Table Allowing Truncation

Apr 30, 2008

Is there a way to tell an ALTER TABLE statement that truncating data from a string or binary column is okay? Meaning, if I have a NVARCHAR(50) column and I want to change it to NVARCHAR(10), any strings over 10 characters can safely be truncated to 10?

Or do I have to push the columns though an intermediary first?

Allowing Transformations When Creating Publication For Replication

Dec 2, 2003

I am at my wits end here. For Replication the Books Online clearly state:

"The option to allow transformations is set at the time you create a publication"

However, I cannot find any options that allow me to do this in the Create Publication Wizard.

Once the Publication has been created I see in the Properties in the Subscription Options tab that "Use DTS to transform data before distributing it to a Subscriber" is set to No and there is no way to change it.

Where am I going wrong?

SQL 2012 :: Allowing Access To DECRYPTBYKEY Function

Nov 6, 2015

How to grant users the right to use the DECRYPTBYKEY function to decrypt the data. I have seen some people talk about using a stored procedure or view to surface the decrypted data, but how would you implement that when trying to pull back a single dataset? It would be best to use an inline function to allow the row to be returned decrypted, but opening the keys isn't allowed in the function construct.

So, I know I have to be missing something, but how do you let basic users (db_reader types) decrypt the data they need based on a custom database role? What do I need to give the user permission to?

My setup is simple:
- I have my SMK
- I have a DMK encrypted by password
- I have my self signed certificate
- I have my symmetric Key encrypted by the certificate

SQL Express 2005 Going Idle And Not Allowing Connections.

Feb 20, 2007

Just upgraded to SQL Express 2005 from MSDE for Firehouse. Upgrade went great and the db is accessable and running fine. Except when not used for a while. Then I need to restart the db to allow connections of any kind. If I don't I get an error that the db is not accessable and I can't connect. Everything runs fine after until it goes to "sleep" on me again. We upgraded to make use of the 4GB limit as we were at 1.9GB and MSDE was getting a little unhappy.



Any suggestions? Is this a "feature" and if so, is there a script I can run to kick it into working mode again?



Thanks
