Using A DTS Package To Copy Data From Database On Remote LAN
Jun 28, 2002
Hi there.
Here is my problem: I'm trying to copy a few tables from an ODBC database located on a PC on my LAN to a SQL Server on a remote server.
To do this I have created a DTS package on the SQL Server which runs smoothly, copying the data as it should, but only as long as it copies the data from the ODBC database on my own computer where I have Enterprise Manager installed. The moment I try to copy data from another PC in the network where Enterprise Manager is not used to execute the DTS package the task fails to run.
I'm quite at a loss here and would very much appreciate a notch in the right direction. Perhabs some source or book which I may read to solve the problem.
I set up DB mirror between a primary (SQL1) and a mirror (SQL2); no witness. I have a problem when I issue command:
alter database DBmirrorTest Set Partner = N'TCP://SQL2.mycom.com:5022'; go
The error message is:
The remote copy of database "DBmirrorTest" has not been rolled forward to a point in time that is encompassed in the local copy of the database log.
I have the steps below prior to the command. (Note that both servers' service accounts use the same domain account. The domain account I login to do db mirror setup is a member of the local admin group.)
1. backup database DBmirrorTest on SQL1
2. backup database log
3. copy db and log backup files to SQL2
4. restore db with norecovery
5. restore log with norecovery
6. create endpoints on both SQL1 and SQL2
CREATE ENDPOINT [Mirroring]
STATE=STARTED
AS TCP (LISTENER_PORT = 5022, LISTENER_IP = ALL)
FOR DATA_MIRRORING (ROLE = PARTNER)
7. enable mirror on mirror server SQL2
:connect SQL2
alter database DBmirrorTest
Set Partner = N'TCP://SQL1.mycom.com:5022';
go
8. Enable mirror on primary server SQL1
:connect SQL1
alter database DBmirrorTest
Set Partner = N'TCP://SQL2.mycom.com:5022';
go
This is where I got the error.
The remote copy of database "DBmirrorTest" has not been rolled forward to a point in time that is encompassed in the local copy
I am having problems setting up database mirroring (SQL Server 2005). I made a backup of my database and transaction log, I restore this on my Mirror server with NoRecovery mode. I established the end points and I set the partner on my mirror server, I then received the error "The remote copy of database "DBNAME" is not recovered far enough to enable database mirroring". when attempting to set the partner on my primary server.
I have a SqlExpress DB on my server. I have a remote copy for security/backup reasons. Because the DB file(and .bak file) is about 2 Gb, it take a while to copy the whole thing to the remote machine. I believe there is a way to use the log file to simply update my remote copy ratherr than copying whole files, but I don't know what this process is called to research it. I have Brust's book on Sql Programming, but I have not found what I am looking for in there. Can anyone tell me where I should be looking and what this process is called?
Hi and thanks in advance for your help. I have a dilemma and I need some expert help with this. I am trying to make a copy of a remote Database and then replicated the DB and it's contents on my local machine so I can build a test site to run data with. I tried to remot into the server machine but I guess that feature is not allowed by the honest of the remote machine. Since I build on my local machine and would like to be able to test data on my local machine.... I would like to copy the remote DB to my local computer and then I can run my test app on my local server. The version of SQL on the remote machine is SQL Express 2005 and I have SQL 2005 on my machine. Please give me how to accomplish this please.
I am using vb.net in windows form. I have made a module which is connected to sql server 2000.
Now, I want to have a fresh copy of the remote database of SQL Server at my local computer and whenever there is change in remote database(insertions,deletion or updation), my local database copy may gets synchronized(i.e changes get reflected in this local copy).
Can any one help me? If it is possibel by using Vb.net code, it is very well, and if there is some Sql Server wizard that can help me do that, please reply to me.
How to add a task to copy an OLAP database to a remote Sql server in control flow using SSIS 2005? This OLAP database is existed in the remote server and I just want to replace the existing one with the one just been updated in the SSIS package and the last task in the package is to copy the updated OLAP database and replace the one at the remote server. Hopfully during the copy and paste process it will not screw up the reports that are using the OLAP cubes at the remote server as the report data source. Thanks.
how to copy a content of a table from one remote server to another,. server A does not see server B (B doesn't see A) - I cannot even ping to one from another.I do have SQL Studio installed on server C, which IT team configured to allow access to both A and B.So what I did so far is to periodically:
1. connect from the studio on server C to server A 2. run the following script on server A: SELECT * FROM A.myTable FOR XML PATH('ROOT') 3. copy the result 4. connect from the studio on server C to server B 5. to write something like
DECLARE @xmlData XML; SET @xmlData = pasting here my result from item 3 above
6. INSERT INTO SELECT
ref.value ..... FROM @xmlData.nodes('/myElemnet/ROOT') xmlData( ref );
so it works. now there is a requirement to schedule this update to run periodically and I need to implement it..
I am new to sql server and the database concepts and just started learning. I want to copy a database and local package from a old sql server to a new server. can anybody guide me with the steps? I am very new to this field so if you could give me detailed steps i would very much appreciate it.
I'm trying to migrate a SQL 2000 database to SQL 2005. I'm using the Copy Database Wizard and can copy the database using the detach and attach method, but I would rather use the SQL Management Object method. I get the following error when trying to use this method:
Package "ShellPackage" failed.
This error occurs directly after the following step:
Event Name: OnInformation Message: Transferring data to database RestoreTest from RestoreTest Operator: <WANfirst.lastname> Source Name: BP-BLM-TESTSQL2_BLM-JCAMPVSSQL2_Transfer Objects Task Source ID: {E6765B9E-1B40-49ED-B0CE-F99252AA34B6} Execution ID: {213272C4-37E9-4A1E-A5B9-A2F9A61348B3} Start Time: 12/20/2005 3:05:58 PM End Time: 12/20/2005 3:05:58 PM Data Code: 0
The database is created successfully but the data is not transfered. Also, the logins are created on the new server successfully. Has anyone seen this error or have any ideas on how to solve this problem? I would greatly appreciate any help!

I am trying to copy a database from our company's external SQL Server(production) to our local SQL Server(development). The Copy Database wizard fails on the step "Execute SQL Server Agent Job". Following is the error in the log file.. Please advise
InnerException-->An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
I try to copy database from remote SQL Server(6.5) to our local SQL Server(7.0). I try this way: First, in Enterprice Manager, I try "NEW SQL SERVER REGISTRATION" using "Register SQL Server wizard".

We need to get the data from our third party CRM vendor. CRM vendor will provide us with .txt file on their folder each night and we need to get those data into our database. I know that SSIS should be able to do this for us. Is there any tutorial of how to do this job in SQL Server 2005? Thanks in advance.
This requirement is for our development and test environment. We have a database server which we use for development hence many changes are done on the database objects on daily basis like tables def changes, view def changes, sp changes, new sp etc.
On the other hand our testing team connects to another database server where they perform testing hence any internal test release would need the changes like tables def changes, view def changes, sp changes, new sp etc.
Since testing team already have their test data set in the test environment hence they want to keep their data but new test release should only provide with datbase object changes. The difficult part is, we have over 500 tables and about 1000 views and somewhere about 400 stored procs, so its not possible to manually perform the above task.
I dont do database admin job hence clueless as what would be the best way to accomplish the above. Pl advice.
we are using sql server 2005 on both test and dev environemts.
Hi all, We have a website with a database connected to a SQL server. I need to copy that database without the data onto a CD so I can place the program on another server?
I'v got a database full with an administration. This database needs to be protected and can not be accessed from the internet. Now we are making an internetpage for the employees and i want to read from the database who's working here.
For the security i want to copy some database data from one database to another... Is that possible? With a script ore something?
How do i make a new database file and then copy all the tables and data out of an old SQL file into it? I just want to see if rebuilding the file helps with a corruption issue i have been having with the log file.
Doing the standard processing, taking source data in a staging database, where I then create the new target tables, transform the source data into the new target table structure, and load the data.
However, having created the new target tables in my staging database, I cannot accurately migrate these tables into the new database.
An example table.
The following is the script created by SQL Management Studio if I right click and script the table as CREATE. CREATE TABLE [dbo].[tbPRO_Package]( [PRO_PackageID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, [CreatedDate] [datetime] NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_tbPRO_Package_CreatedDate] DEFAULT (getdate()), [CreatedBy] [varchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_tbPRO_Package_CreatedBy] DEFAULT (suser_sname()), [ModifiedDate] [datetime] NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_tbPRO_Package_ModifiedDate] DEFAULT (getdate()), [ModifiedBy] [varchar](50) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_tbPRO_Package_ModifiedBy] DEFAULT (suser_sname()), [GUID] [uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF_tbPRO_Package_GUID] DEFAULT (newid()), CONSTRAINT [PK_tbPackage_ID] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ( [PRO_PackageID] ASC)WITH (IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF) ON [PRIMARY]) ON [PRIMARY]
Note that the field PRO_PackageID has an identity, and is a primary key.
Also note the constraints on several fields and the default values.
If I try to move this table and data using the SQL Server Import and Export Wizard, telling it to drop and create the table, and to keep identity, it does not correctly generate the table defintion - it generates the following script
CREATE TABLE [Migration Staging].[dbo].[tbPRO_Package] ([PRO_PackageID] int NOT NULL,[PackageCode] varchar(8) NOT NULL,[LKU_VatRateCode] nchar(10),[CancellationCharge] decimal(18,2),[CancellationMultiplier] decimal(18,2),[CreatedDate] datetime NOT NULL,[CreatedBy] varchar(50) NOT NULL,[ModifiedDate] datetime NOT NULL,[ModifiedBy] varchar(50) NOT NULL,[GUID] uniqueidentifier NOT NULL)
We've lost the identity, the PK,the constraints and the defaults.
If I use the SSIS Transfer SQL Server Objects Task, then the primary key is kept, but the identity is not, nor are the constraints or defaults.
Am I missing something? Is it actually POSSIBLE to accurately move tables between databases?
I have been working on my windows app, using SQL Server 2005 (& C#) but I now have loads of junk data, so I want to copy the structure without any data to a new set of files that can become the production version.
I assume I can use backup and restore in future when I want a copy of my production data to use for future testing.
How would I take just one table from my test database and add it to my production database without retyping the design?
Apart from the size limitation is there any advantage in buying a version of SQL Server over using the Express edition?
I'm looking to create a new version of a database but with completely reloaded data - so I want to retain the database structure but none of the data.
Is there an easy way (read: without a DBA on staff) to copy an existing database structure - preferably with views and stored procedures - and not take the data along for the ride?
Hello everyone. i am using vwd 2005 express edition along with sqlexpress 2005. if i need to use database in my project. i click on database explorer and create a new table from the existing database. it is working very fine.

Is there a way to copy the structure from one database to anotherwithout affecting the actual data?For example, I added new fields and stored procedures to a db in mydevelopment environment. There are a lot of them.I now want to make the same changes to my production environment db butdon't want to affect the data. Only the fields, stored procs &constraints and stuff pertaining to the structure of the db should bechanged.Does anyone know of a program that can do this or can this be done inMS SQL Enterprise Manager.Any help would be appreciated.7078895

I have a flat file, which I read and then insert the data in a database table, that works fine. The problem is that I don't want to insert duplicate records. For example; if I run the package again, it will appent to the table. What I need to do is that if the package runs again, check if the record already exist, based one two columns, date and hour, and do not insert the record.
I work on a copy of SQL Server Express on my desktop. After modifying and creating views and user defined functions, I would like to copy and paste them into the working database. Is there a method programmatically of doing this or must I copy and paste the t-sql language from the existing view to the new database--then save the new view on the working database?
