What Are The Essential PERMISSION GRANTS For Making A FUNCTIONAL SQL Database ?

Jan 17, 2008

I am developing a web site with asp.net 2.0 and c#, using Visual Studio 2005 and Microsoft SQL Server 2005 ( I am still learning about these technologies and languages ).I transferred my web site files to my NEW computer. The web site worked fine when running inside Visual Studio, however when I tried to run it in its PUBLISHED format it was giving this error message:Server Error in '/MA' Application.
Cannot open database "SiteData" requested by the login. The login failed.
Login failed for user 'CENTAURUSASPNET'.
I solved the problem by running SQL Server Management Stdio, right clicking “SiteData� database -> properties -> permissions->view server permissions then I chose “CENTAURUSASPNET� and since I DID NOT KNOW what grants are ESSENTIAL for the functioning of the database, I GRANTED EVERYTHING ( I ticked ALL the permissions).

But since, probably, a lot of GRANTS are not only unnecessary but also may compromise the security of the web site, I would like to know what are the ESSENTIAL OR MINIMUM GRANTS NECESSARY for making the database functional to the web site and what grants may represent a security risk.

When Denormalizing Is Essential

Jul 20, 2005

I have a database with over 450 tables, that until a short while agohas been strictly 3NF. In cases where complicated permutations ofdata are required quickly for certain parts of the system, sometimesit is not possible to write a query fast enough, due to the complexityof deriving many nested levels of data.Therefore for the few instances where this has been needed, I havecreated carefully named summary tables, having one-to-onerelationships to real tables (same primary key), and containing onlythe values which must be computed.This works fine. The question now is when to compute them.Much as I strongly dislike triggers, I have created triggers for thetables in question, which themselves recalculate the summary values,and populate the summary tables.Good news, loading is much faster.Bad news, now that I'm taking the hit on the save, the saves are fartoo slow.The only way I can see that my saves could be sped up, is to perhapsspread the work a bit, such that maybe if I am adding fifty records toa table, that the trigger is somehow disabled before the rows areadded, and re-enabled afterwards, to calculate the lot as a set-basedoperation (rather than calling the trigger 50 times), but I don't seea way to do that.Any help of any nature on this matter would be greatly appreciatedCheersBrian McGee

Functional Dependiencies

May 3, 2007

Hi there, How would I go about doing this question?


Give functional dependencies for the table SE(SNo,ENo,EName,City,Country) with primary key (SNo,ENo) such that

1) SE is in 1NF and not in 2NF
2) SE is in 2NF and not in 3NF
3) SE is in 3NF and not in BCNF

Explain your answers. You can use functional dependency diagrams for illustration

Would I say something like
EName -> City, Country
Eno -> EName
SNo -> ENo

911 Help! Why Can't I Get A Functional Version Of SQL Installed On My Machine?

Mar 5, 2007

Hello Everyone, I am trying to install SQL 2005 on my machine. All I want is the functionality that I enjoyed with SQL 2000- Query Analyzer and Enterprise Manager. For some reason, the version of SQL 2005 that I am installing is only giving me an option for the Configuration Manger which does not provide access to the Management Console. It is my understanding that I need the Management Console to create databases, look at tables in my databases, etc., etc. just like I did in Enterprise Manager. Is there anyone who can tell me what I'm doing wrong? Currently, the cd that I have says SQL Developer Edition. Thanks.

Reporting Services :: Server Not Fully Functional After Migrating To New Domain

Jun 19, 2015

I had to migrate my report server (2008R2) to a new domain. I built new server and restored the old ReportServer and ReportServerTempDB into new server and also restored the certificate from old server. The Report Server is running but I don't have full access to all server futures anymore, looks like it's AD authentication messed up. My new account is Admin on new server but I can't see all options, like New Data Source, or wehn going on report level to manage to see all option such as Parameters, Subscriptions, Data Source.

Problem With Making Owner Of Database?

May 27, 2007

Hi,
I use Sql server express 2005.I have two databases: db1 and db2.I use Studio Management. I connect with my administrator account 'admin'.
1) When i rightclick on db1 (and also on db2) and i take the properties / general, i see for both db: owner = servernameadmin .When i take properties / Files, i see for db1: owner = servernameadmin , but for db2, it remains empty.why and does it mean that db2 has no owner? But then, why do i see in properties / general : owner = servernameadmin?
2) i want to make 'admin' owner of db2 (for creating a database diagram), so in properties / Files, i click on the button with three dots.A windows "select database owner" appears, i click on button 'browse', but then all i see is:built-in administartorsbuilt-in userssa...
Whatever i choose (e.g; built-in administrators), i get the message: an entity of database cannot be owned by a role, group ... error 15353).
Why do i not get the account 'admin' in the browse windows and how to make 'admin' owner of db2?
Thanks for helpT.

Making Database Changes Without Logging In To The Server.

May 1, 2008

Hi All,

I am a bit new to using MS-SQL, up till now my main adminstration was in Oracle.

I have a question, my developers make changes to my MS-SQL databases, however, they always login as a local admin or use their domain WIndows accounts - with the given privileges. Then they amend the database.
My idea is to avoid logging into an MS-SQL server without using a Remote Desktop. So they will need some kind of a client.

What is your experience and what would be the best way to do this? Meaning, what software can I use that does not require a license fee?

With Oracle I can install the Oracle client which has an SQLPLUS to login remotely. Does MS-SQL have something similar?

Thanks in advance.

I did use Google to search, I also have an MS-SQL Developer Edition, but this seems to come with another server itself.

Regards,
Richard.

Making Copy Of 6.5 Database To 7 Or 2000

I'm trying to grant/deny object permissions in a user database using Enterprise Manager and query tool without success (for €˜public€™ role and individual sql logins). I€™m not getting any error messages. Permission changes just don€™t take effect. Although, there are few objects, which already have permissions granted and I'm able to change permissions for these ones.

Problem Making Sql Database Connection In Deployed Site

Database Replication Versus Making Remote Calls

Aug 21, 2012

I I work for a small business who has a somewhat successful ecommerce site. Our website is based on some VERY large DB's with 10's of millions of records, and 40+GB of images, so we choose to self host so we could easily manage the data. As things have grown and we've cobbled a fair amount of integration between the website databases and our internal systems. Fast forward 4-5 years, the website has grown to the point that self hosting is costing us a fortune in bandwidth costs, so I'm thinking of moving to a co-location facility. If I do that, I need to send the website tables along with it. Is there a replication stradagy that would allow us to have two independant DB's, both able to take updates that would sync with one another? My other thought is to spit the tables on two different DB's and let some of the data live in the co-location facility.. but I am worried about the performance impact for local users.

DB Design :: Log File Corrupted While Making Database Readonly

Jun 3, 2015

We have database when trying to make read only throwing below error: with stack dump

Location:              recovery.cpp:4517
Expression:         m_recoveryUnit->IsIntendedUpdateable ()
SPID:                     51
Process ID:          6448
Msg 926, Level 14, State 1, Line 1
Database 'XXXX' cannot be opened. It has been marked SUSPECT by recovery.

See the SQL Server errorlog for more information.
Msg 5069, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
ALTER DATABASE statement failed.
Msg 3624, Level 20, State 1, Line 1

A system assertion check has failed. Check the SQL Server error log for details. Typically, an assertion failure is caused by a software bug or data corruption. To check for database corruption, consider running DBCC CHECKDB. If you agreed to send dumps to Microsoft during setup, a mini dump will be sent to Microsoft. An update might be available from Microsoft in the latest Service Pack or in a QFE from Technical Support.

Msg 3313, Level 21, State 2, Line 1

During redoing of a logged operation in database 'XXXX', an error occurred at log record ID (0:0:0). Typically, the specific failure is previously logged as an error in the Windows Event Log service. Restore the database from a full backup, or repair the database.

Msg 3414, Level 21, State 1, Line 1

An error occurred during recovery, preventing the database 'XXXX' (database ID 7) from restarting. Diagnose the recovery errors and fix them, or restore from a known good backup. If errors are not corrected or expected, contact Technical Support.

Investigation DONE:

- DBcc checkdb shown Clean 
- database is online and able to access
-Detached database and attached with rebuild log, still could not bring database read_only

SQL version : SQL server 2008 SP4.

SELECT Permission Denied On Object 'TableID', Database 'Database', Schema 'dbo'

Mar 21, 2007


The error message:

An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)
Query execution failed for data set 'TestID'. (rsErrorExecutingCommand)
For more information about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors

The log file reads:

---> Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.ReportProcessingException: Query execution failed for data set 'TestID'. ---> System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: SELECT permission denied on object 'TableID', database 'Database', schema 'dbo'.

***Background***

General Users got an error message when trying to access any reports we have created.
All admin have no problems with the reports. Users (Domain Users) are given rights (Browser) to the reports and the Data Sources (Browser) and yet cannot view the reports.

An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)
Cannot create a connection to data source 'DS2'. (rsErrorOpeningConnection)
For more information about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors


I'll add this from the report logs...

w3wp!processing!1!3/20/2007-11:43:25:: e ERROR: Data source €˜DS2€™: An error has occurred. Details: Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.ReportProcessingException: Cannot create a connection to data source €˜DS2€™. ---> System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Cannot open database €œDatabase€? requested by the login. The login failed.
Login failed for user €˜DOMAINUsername€™.

The user has rights via a local group to the report and data source (Browser rights) and the local group has been added as a SQL login.


I gave rights to the databases themselves instead of just to SQL and the error changed (Ah-ha...progress, but why!?!?)

Does SSIS Database Copy Overwrite Existing User Permission To That Database?

Sep 24, 2007

Hi guys,

I've been assigned the task of setting up access to our SQL Server 2005 box. A consultant developing for us has accessing to 2 databases and I've set this up fine. It appears however that one of these databases is re-copied over to the server every night to keep data reasonably current.

I'm not interesting in changing this method as I'm not the maintainer (as yet).

Basically I would like to know if I've setup access to this database (it works fine), when the database is updated (with an SSIS package) the account seems to get deleted. Do the original permissions from the source database overwrite those of its destination?

Cheers
