Workaround CREATE MASTER KEY??

Apr 10, 2008

At some point in time, when I release my code from developemnt to production, somebody will onvoke the SQL Script containg my certificates and symettric keys based on my master key. Unfortunately this seems a bit of a weekness as my SQL SCRIPT contains the CREATE MASTER KEY ENCRYPTION BY PASSWORD stement which has the password itself in clear. (script gets invoked from a command line in a batch script which is all under documeny mangement control). Obviously I would not like my password to be be in clear anywhere - i.e. not in document control nor viewable from whoever invokes the script. What is best pracrice to adopt on this? - encrypt the script file?

Thanks

Create Login From Master

Jan 25, 2008

Is there any way I can create a login for a database while the database context is master or not the particular database.
I am trying to do something like this.......
USE [master]
GO

DECLARE @STRSQL VARCHAR(2000),
@DATABASE_NAME VARCHAR(50),
@DB_PATH VARCHAR(200),
@DB_USER VARCHAR(25)
SET @DATABASE_NAME='TDB4x'
SET @DB_PATH='D:Database'
SET @DB_USER='TDB4Test'

DECLARE @SQL_DB varchar(20),
@STRSQL1 varchar(500),
@STRSQL2 varchar(500),
@STRSQL3 varchar(500),
@STRSQL4 varchar(500)

SET @SQL_DB='USE '+@DATABASE_NAME
SET @STRSQL1=(' IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT *
FROM sys.server_principals
WHERE name='''+@DB_USER+''')')
SET @STRSQL2=(' BEGIN
CREATE LOGIN '+@DB_USER+'
WITH PASSWORD=N'''+@DB_USER+''',
DEFAULT_DATABASE=['+@DATABASE_NAME+'],
DEFAULT_LANGUAGE=[us_english],
CHECK_EXPIRATION=OFF,
CHECK_POLICY=OFF
END')
SET @STRSQL3=(' EXEC sys.sp_addsrvrolemember @loginame = N'''+@DB_USER+''', @rolename = N''sysadmin''')
SET @STRSQL4=(' ALTER LOGIN ['+@DB_USER+'] DISABLE')
EXEC (@SQL_DB+@STRSQL1+@STRSQL2+@STRSQL3+@STRSQL4)

The login is successfully created, but I cannot find the user in the specific database. Is there any other way this can be accomplished?

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Combining Keys To Create A Master List?

Mar 5, 2014

I am struggling trying to clean some data and identify duplicate records. I used fuzzy grouping in SSIS and provided back a series of groups. The issue is some of the individual records can appear in multiple groups (so in reality the groups should be combined). This is best explained with an example:

Original Data
key1 key2
647942600014
647942285437
2324662490640
2324662285437
2324662066128
2222 2285437
2222 1111111
9999 1111111
9999 2222222

Should look like:

22222600014
22222285437
22222490640
22222066128
22221111111
22222222222

I only choose 2222 as the surviving key because it was the smallest number. I really do not care which number remains as long as it is the same across.

I tried playing with self joins between the tables but have had no success.

I am using Sql Server 2008 and the number of records could 500K to 1MM.

How To Create A Minimal User In DB With No Access To View Master DB

Sep 11, 2007

Hi,
We are using SQL Server 2005 Management Studio.

I created a Minimal User in an application DB. The user will access tables through stored procedures.

I do not want this user to view any other objects including objects in the Master DB.

I can prevent the minimal user from viewing objects from our application DB.

How do you prevent the minimal user from viewing objects in the Master DB?

Thanks.

8114 Workaround

Dec 14, 2004

The very simplified version of my problem is that these

Select DISTINCT Cast(KWID as NUMERIC)
FROM OV_MID

Select DISTINCT Convert(Numeric,KWID)
FROM OV_MID

should work, but don't because KWID is a varchar and somewhere in there is something that won't convert.

I get this error:
Server: Msg 8114, Level 16, State 5, Line 1
Error converting data type varchar to numeric.

I would love to find out which rows are causing the error, but more importantly I would like to have a Null value where the conversion doesn't work and the numeric values where it does work.

I have already deleted all obvious non-numeric characters, but I believe there are some line terminators being read as carriage returns in this table. :confused:

Any workaround or way to determine which rows have KWID that cannot be converted to numeric would be most appreciated.

Thanks!

Deadlocks Workaround?

Jul 20, 2005

Hi All,I have read about deadlocks here on Google and I was surprised to readthat an update and a select on the same table could get into adeadlock because of the table's index. The update and the selectaccess the index in opposite orders, thereby causing the deadlock.This sounds to me as a bug in SQL Server!My question is: Could you avoid this by reading the table with a'select * from X(updlock)' before updating it? I mean: Would thisresult in the update transaction setting a lock on the index rowsbefore accessing the data rows?Merry Christmas!/Fredrik Mller

Need Workaround For DATEPART(wk, ...) Function !

Aug 6, 2001

The function "DATEPART(wk, [valid_date])" appears to have the following bug:

DATEPART(wk, date) returns week 53 for the following dates (checked years 2000, 2001, 2002):
year 2000: 12-24-2000 through 12-30-2000 inclusive
year 2001: 12-30-2000 through 12-31-2001 inclusive
year 2002: 12-29-2002 through 12-31-2002 inclusive

DATEPART(wk, date) returns week 54 for the following dates:
year 2000: 12-31-2000

SQL2000 SP1.

Are there any known workarounds/fixes/patches for this (other than just hand-coding the function?)

Thanks!

Whileprintingrecords Equivalent Or Workaround?

Apr 10, 2008

I'm converting crystal reports to SSRS reports right now and came across this function that I'm not familiar with.
It's a formula field in crystal that has this formula:

quote:whileprintingrecords;
NumberVar RTCurrent;
NumberVar RT31to60;
NumberVar RT61to90;
NumberVar RT91to120;
NumberVar RTOver120;
if {@AgedDays} < 31 then RTCurrent := RTCurrent + {@BalanceDue} else
if ({@AgedDays} > 30 and {@AgedDays} < 61) then RT31to60 := RT31to60 + {@BalanceDue} else
if ({@AgedDays} > 60 and {@AgedDays} < 91) then RT61to90 := RT61to90 + {@BalanceDue} else
if ({@AgedDays} > 90 and {@AgedDays} < 121) then RT91to120 := RT91to120 + {@BalanceDue} else
if {@AgedDays} > 120 then RTOver120 := RTOver120 + {@BalanceDue}

@Aged days is just an integer, but that shouldn't matter for this thread.

Is there just a While loop equivalent for this in SSRS?

UDF Taking Too Long To Run Workaround ?

Apr 28, 2006

I have written a UDF into which I pass a table name, field name, value of the field, whether alpha characters are valid, whether numerics are valid, and a string of alphanumerics that are valid. I return back a string with all invalid characters removed. Unfortunately when I use this on names and addresses in an 12000 row table, it takes forever to run.

Workaround For Precendence Constraint

Apr 30, 2007

Hi,



Any insights to this issue would be great.

Following is my problem statement. I have write around 20Batch programs and in each batch i have atleast 7-8 data validations. If any of the data validation fails then i have to perform a log operation and exit.



Now I have each of my data validation as a Script Task (Control Flow) which inturn would call my SP and set the "Status" variable accordingly



I have written a "OnVariableValueChanged" Event with Raise Change Event for "Status" variable set to "True" Now in this event i check if Status = False, if it is false then i perform the log operation and throw a new DTSException to abort the control flow execution. The event gets fired but it continues to process the next control step(but i wanted it stop there). I could have acheived this by setting a precendence constraint (Status = True) for all of my control flow task but i feel the other approach to be very elegant.



Any suggestions to make this work??



Thanks & Regards

Workaround For No Aggregates In A Grouping

Jun 21, 2007



I am trying to group on the number of distict field values. Basically:



=Ceiling(CountDistinct(Fields!ClientID.Value, Nothing)/10)



So for every 10 different clients, I get a group. I get an error with the above function saying aggregates are not allowed in a grouping expression. I tried creating a text box with the running value:

=RunningValue(Fields!ClientID.Value,CountDistinct,Nothing)

The value of the text box is correct, but I can't reference that text box in the grouping function. It says the textbox is undefined.



Any suggestions for a workaraound?



Thanks.

Slow Database Connection...workaround

Feb 12, 2008

I have a portal site that has many iframes loading various pages. One of the iframes requires data from a database that has a slow connection and right now there is nothing we can do about the slow connection and is something we have to live with.
What seems to be happening though is that even though each page is loading seperatly in an iframe, when the page loads with the slow connection, it seems to hold up processing on the server for the other frames until the connection has been established with the server. It can be something like 10 seconds. I am guessing trying to establish the connection is holding up the worker process on IIS???
So I am trying to find a workaround bearing in mind there is nothing we can do about the slow connection for the time being? Does anyone have any suggestions? One I am thinking of is forcing this frame to load last so at least the other frames are not being held up. Another is maybe to use a seperate thread, but does anyone have any idea on this?
Thanks in advance

Report Footer - Need Viable Workaround

Oct 18, 2007

After digging for some time now into the "guts" of SSRS, I am wondering if anyone out there has any ideas which might help me at this point.

I am trying to write an Invoice report.

Each report can have 1 to n invoices on it.
Each invoice can have 1 to n line items (spanning several pages for the larger ones)
Each page must have a fixed header and footer with account and payment information on it (the page header and page footer work OK for this).

And here is the problem. Each invoice must also include 1 to n images at the end of the report. 2 on a page and take up an entire 8.5 by 11 inch page. (spanning many pages when many line items exist)

Since the report already has a page header and footer with the report detail stuffed in a table in the middle of the page (report body), I am stuck.

I have read several posts which talk about having a can-grow container with a subreport in the existing footer, but I can't even come close to getting this to work. My footer would have to take up the entire page and having nothing but a subreport in it.

I can not provide a link to the images in the report, as each report must print in its entirety without user involvement (no drilling down).

I am thinking that my report is too complex for SSRS at this time. I would love to be proven wrong by someone on this forum.

Thanks for any and all replies.

CREATE DATABASE Permission Denied In Database 'master'

Dec 20, 2006

Hi,

I'm using Visual Studio 2005 Pro and SQLExpress that comes with it.

I have my program running fine in XP Pro OS using a window user "Glen" (Computer administrator) with Administrator rights. This means that I installed VS 2005 using this window user "Glen"

I created another windows user "TestUser" (Limited account) in the same physical PC.

I tried to run the program and on the part that I need to access SQL table, I got the error [CREATE DATABASE permission denied in database 'master']

At the same time while using "TestUser" and running sqlcmd (to check if I can connect to SQL), I also got error HResult 0x2, Level 16, State 1.

I read alot on MSDN discussions and related links but it seems that I can't get the solution that I need.

SO HERE ARE MY QUESTIONS :

1. Am I allowed to run my program using user "TestUser" since SQL is installed using "Glen" windows user?

2. Do I need to add access rights to "TestUser" to allow the user to have CREATE rights? (Note : for security reason, I can add other access rights except Administrator)

Thanks in advance for all you help.

resources for the static parts and a DB for the dynamic part.
I'm using the PROFILE option in asp.net 2.0 to store the language preference of visitors. It's working perfectly.

but Now I have some problems trying to get the right inserts.

basically I have designed my db based on this article:
http://www.codeproject.com/aspnet/LocalizedSamplePart2.asp?print=true

more specifically:
http://www.codeproject.com/aspnet/LocalizedSamplePart2/normalizedSchema.gif



ok now let's take the example of Categorie, Categorie_Local, and Culture

I basically want to create an insert that will let me insert categories into my database with the 2 language:

eg.
in categorie I have ID's 1 & 2
in culture I have:
ID: 1
culture: en-US
ID 2
culture: fr-Be

now the insert should create into Categorie_Local:

cat_id culture_id name
1 1 a category
1 2 une categorie


and so on...


I think this thing is only do-able with a stored procedure because:

1. when creating a new categorie, a new ID has to be entered into Categorie table
2. into the Categorie_local I need 2 rows inserted with the 2 values for 2 different cultures...



any idea on how to do this right ?
I'm a newbie with ms sql and stored procedures :s



help would be very very appreciated!
thanks a lot

Ambiguous Complex Type Definition With XML Source. Workaround?

Jan 19, 2006

Hi,

This could well be down to my _limited_ knowledge of XSD.



I have a document and SXD supplied by 3rd party.

Both documents are valid, according to XMLSpy.

When I give the document and xsd to SSIS XML Source it complains about ambiguous complex types.



In the XML doc there is an element called Allowance that has child elements.

There is also a group which references many other elements including Allowance.

When I remove the group, SSIS stops complaining about allowance.



Would the problem stem from SSIS creating an output called Allowance ('cause of it's children), getting to the group and again, 'cause allowance has children, try create another output called Allowance.

Is my understanding of this correct? Is there a work around for a situation like this?

The only thing I can come up with is deleting the group....

Possible to alias an element? Could alias the Group > Allowance g_Allowance.



Cheers,

Crispin

Need Workaround For 4000-character Limit On CLR Sproc Parameters

May 11, 2007

I've written a managed (C#) stored procedure with the following signature:


[Microsoft.SqlServer.Server.SqlProcedure]
public static void Sproc(string startDate, string endDate, string idList)...



Sometimes when I call this sproc, my comma-separated list of IDs exceeds 4000 characters. How can I get around this problem?

I guess I need something equivalent to NVarchar(MAX), but for CLR sprocs instead of TSQL.

Any thoughts?

Understanding 'Assembly Blah Was Not Found In The SQL Catalog' And Workaround

Nov 27, 2006


This is the message I get trying to load the assembly into my database:
Create failed for SqlAssembly Microsoft.Adapter.SAP.SAPProvider
Assembly microsoft.oba.metadata.metadataaccess, version=1.0.0.0, culture=neutral, publickeytoken= was not found in the SQL catalog. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 6503)
I heard one opinion that said that it appears that SQL the CLR Hosted Environment tries to load the whole assembly dependency graph and doesn't find the dependent assembly in its catalog. That is consistent with the restriction of the CLR Hosted Environment not supporting managed code dynamically generated (
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms131047.aspx )
My questions are: what is microsoft.oba.metadata.metadataaccess and how can I preload it in SQL Server? Assuming the assembly lives somewhere in the server, is there a way to refer to it inside SQL Server without loading it? How is the SAP provider related to Office Business Applications Services (that's the only acronym I could find relating Microsoft with OBA)?
thanks,
Gustavo

Boolean Data Type Not Available (workaround For Checkbox.checked Storing?)

Sep 2, 2006

I have a page for inventory price entry that I have used for a while. Now I need to add a checkbox for whether or not the price includes shipping. I added the checkbox to the form and had it posting 'True' or 'False' to the database as nchar(10) data type. When the gridview pulls up the data, I have the Item Template like this, so it shows a disabled checkbox either checked or not: <asp:CheckBox ID="CheckBox2" runat="server" Checked='<%# Convert.ToBoolean(Eval("Shipping")) %>' Enabled="False" /> This works fine for displaying the values, but I copied the checkbox to the Edit Item Template, but did not disabled this one. At first, I didn't change the databindings, leaving it Convert.ToBoolean(Eval("Shipping")), which allowed me to go into Edit mode, change the checkbox, then click update. At which point it would return to it's original state (meaning Update wasn't actually updating). However if I change the databindings, then the page won't display. I checked the SQL statement, and sure enough, it has theUpdateCommand="UPDATE [PartsTable] ... SET [Shipping] = @Shipping... WHERE [PartID] = @original_PartIDAfter fiddling with the sql statement, now I get Object cannot be cast from DBNull to other types. I think that means that the checkbox is sending a null value to the database.Any insight as to how to get this to work is much appreciated. Thanks in advance.
