Backup Sql Server Database In Hosting Environment?
Aug 11, 2006
I am new to database.
I have a website in a hosting environment and it uses sql server 2005 databases. I want to have a complete backup of my database in addition to the hosting company's routine backup. I want to write a program to automatically backup everything every night. And of couse have the ability to restored the whole database if necessary.
How should I do it? Are there any tools exist that I can use? What is the best way to deal with backup/restore in hosting environment?
Thanks!

Hello,
I want to offer a SQL 2005 server in back-end configuration for my hosting clients. Basically this means that they administer the DB with a webbased tool and the DB server it self is configured in the backend and has no direct connect to the internet. The DBs can only be access from the frontend web server.
- What security considerations should I take to use this server in a public hosting environment?
- We only allow webbased administration, no direct connect to the server are allow and possible.
- Multiple databases will exist on the same server from different customers.
I really would like to have as many information as possible. There is not much usefull information available on the web or in the books I own about SQL.
The question should actually be: what do you want to prevent from happing on your servers by authenticated users and ofcourse unwanted users. And how to do this.

I must be missing something, and its starting to fusterate me. Bear with me here.
I created a site for a ...client I guess you'd call it, and made this really slick newletter generator thing. The people from the web enter in their info, and if they want, they sign up for a newsletter -- all tied into a db, 1 table, 4 stored procedures, REALLY simple stuff. They insisted I used a certain webhost which, on paper, looks like it will fit the bill. I'm starting to question that.
On top of the newsletter thing, I created an aspnetdb for the "administration" side of it for her to log into and send out the newsletter so total, there's 2 dbs in the app_data folder. Locally, it works GREAT and on my test box (iis6) that is running 2k5 express. The webhost runs sql2k in (what I consider) a bastardized way. Can't use the management studio, can't use anything except a really weak web-based interface which adds to my fusteration.
Anyway, my questions : 1, is there a way to make the mdf files work with sql2k without having to re-do the whole thing and 2, if I have to redo it, does anyone have an example connection string that might help out?

All--
Please help.
I have deployed my site to my shared host and I am getting the following RTE...
An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file... ..App_DataCommerceDB.mdf failed
...and I cannot find the issue.
Note that I have given Full-Permissions on root folder for the IUSR account and for the ASPNET account.
The full error message is below.
Anyway, do you have an suggestions?
My web hosting provider has advertised that they do support SQL Express 2005. What exactly do I need to ask them to do in order to get this working?
Please advise.
Thank you.

Hi Everbody:
I would like to know your experience about how to make regular database restore and point-in-time restore in SQL Cluster environment.
(1). My first question is about database backup. We use SQL Server backup in our shop. We hope that we can back up the database to a one network shared drive. The SQL Server can not do it. It only allows us to back up database to the local drive. Since there is no too much spaces in the local drives (C, D and E), I would like to know how we can back up to the network shared drive.
(2). A few database are critical databases which require point-in-time restore. How we can back up database (complete backup or differential backup), transaction log?
(3). If database and transaction log crash at the same time, can we still do point-in-time restore?
(4). How we do Master DB and MSDB back up? Weekly or monthly?
Thank you very much for your advice.
Joan

What is needed for a hoster / hosting company to be able to host .Net applications with SQL Server 2005 Express database?
My questions regarding this issue basically are:
If a hoster has several sites hosted on a server, can each one of them have its own SQL Express database?
Or, do they have to be migrated to full SQL Server?
What is with the Upsize Tool for SQL Server Express (or something like that) - is it available?
Generally, how do hosters do their hosting - do they have SQL Server SPLA signed? Or do they just have SQL Server 2005 Express and allow users just to copy their web sites and databases to server?
I would really appreciate any answer.
Kind regards,
Luka

I'm currently on a shared hosting plan which has a SQL Server component to it.
At the moment, I'm on 2000. I have a DTS package that runs locally and does a backup of the remote database and backs that up using sequential file numbering.
I'd like to move to 2005, but I'm not sure quite how to replicate this process. Basically:
- I don't have access to the server as it's shared hosting
- I don't have the credentials for backups and stuff like that
- They only send backups on demand
- They don't perform regular backups on your data
- They won't have the backups saved to my web directory
If I:
- use import/export, which is almost the only thing I know I can use, I can only copy tables and views. I'd like to copy everything (SPs, Functions, ect)
The only thing I can come up with is software that would compare the structure and data and generate T-SQL to copy it over (ie. Apex SQL).
Is this my only hope on SQL 2005?

Hello,
we are thinking about consolidating our Vendor Sqlserver needs into single big Sqlserver box.
We currently have dedicated boxs for each vendor who requires a Sqlserver Dbs, for example Siemen Sqlserver Dbs are on one box, Clintrac Dbs are on one bx, etc.
It looks like we can save some money on HW/SW and maintenance cost by the consolidation. That's assuming that the Dbs can get along fine.
I was wondering if folks on this group can share their experience or thoughts about above setting.
Thanks,
yi

Hi, I'm developing a website using VWD 2005 Express, which needs a Membership system and a products database. Using the VWD inherent Web Site Administration tool makes the membership set up easy but by default it creates a 'Local' SQL database in a folder named 'Apps_Data' in the VWD project. My question is: considering I will need to upload my web site to a Hosting Service, would it be better to change the default so that the membership systems, and the product database I need, are created in an SQL 'Server' database instead of a 'Local' database?
The hosting service I am considering using is having a bit of a problem understanding this question, I hope it makes sense to someone or am I asking a stupid question?
Regards
Sean.

I lost my database on my pc as I format my hard drive. Now, how I can get a copy of my ms sql server database from my hosting to work with my local pc? I need to have a local copy so that I can develop my site without internet connection. For your information, I used Hostforlife.eu hosting service. I have searched and tried many methods to do it, but no luck yet. For example, I created a backup on Hostforlife.eu and restore backup file on my pc, but nothing happens. Then I created a new database, and re-created its structure same as the one on Hostforlife, then I used the import wizard to import data from them to my pc. Again, nothing happens.

I'm using SQL Server Management Studio Express and I'm trying to figure out how to copy a table(s) from my local database to my web hosting database. I know how to do it in 2000, but it's completely different now. Is this feature not allowed on SSMSE? If so, then how do I deploy database tables to a web host?Also, how do you add local database(s) to SSMSE? I tried to use 'attach database' in SSMSE and it wouldn't allow me to navigate to My Documents folder where the database resides. Thanks...

We have a valid full backup of a database. We know it is valid, we have restored it twice from the network with no problems, but we do not have access to the network location from our sandbox environment.
The .bak file is sizable at about 9GB. The .bak file resides on our internal network, in a SAN drive. No problems there. When we copy the file from there into a sandbox environment to attempt the restore in the sandbox environment it gets corrupted. We've tried three different times and all three different times it gets corrupted. First time we copied the file over to the sandbox the restore went up to 50% and failed. The second time we copied the file again and attempted the restore again it failed at 70%.
The third time it failed at 60%. The error message we get during the restore is "...Read on ... failed: 13(The data is invalid) Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Restore database is terminating abnormally."
Now some background here. To move the file our network team is doing this: they have this .vmdk file that they mount out in our production environment (which has access to the network location where the .bak file is), copy the file into the drive, then move the .vmdk file into the sandbox environment(which does not have access to the network location), mount the drive in the sandbox environment, and then I have access to the .bak file from within the sandbox environment.
Something in the process of using the .vmdk file to move the .bak file from production into the sandbox is causing the file to get corrupted.

Does anyone use One and One Internet (UK) for their hosting?
I use them and when I published my site all membership feautures wouldn't work, I called the One and One support and they said that their servers only support SQL Databases if they were created using their own tool in their control panels.
How would I get my site to use their database, I'm really not sure.
If anyone else could help me out I'd be grateful.
Kind Regards

Hello,
I am an ASP.NET 2.0/SQL 2005 web developer, and I have run into a huge frustration for some time now that I can't seem to get past. My goal is to develop SQL databases for my costomers on my development machine, and then upload the completed database out to my host. I have not found a host that allows this yet. Some hosts do not allow remote SQL connections altogether, and the best hosts I have been able to find allow remote SQL connections, but do not allow SSIS or DTS packages to run to transfer database objects to the production server.
What does this mean? Well, I have to manually transfer or recreate individual stored procedures and recreate primary, foreign, and other table constraints. I cannot just run a DTS package to transfer the completed objects. So this means duplicating effort, changes for mistakes, and more server downtime during site upgrades. I have called so many host providers, and I haven't found one that can get me past this.
Also, I contacted Microsoft to ask about Licensing (thinking I would just lease a dedicated server), and the only option I can use is SPLA licensing. The catch, I have to lease the OS through SPLA as well, and all the hosts I have contacted put the OS on the server themselves. This means I would be paying for the OS twice.
Ideally, I would just love to find a shared web host package that I could use efficiently with my SQL development. Am I missing something? If anyone has any advice, please help! I would be so appreciative!!! Thanks.
Regards,
Jeremy

Hi there
I'm getting this message on my third automated backup of the transaction logs of the day. Both databases are in full recovery mode, both successfully backed up at 01.00. The transaction logs backed up perfectly happily at 01:30 and 05:30, but failed at 09:30.
The only difference between 05:30 and 09:30's backups is that the log files were shrunk at 08:15 (the databases in question are the ones that sit under ILM2007, and keeping the log files small keeps the system running better).
Is it possible that shrinking the log files causes the database to think that there hasn't been a full database backup?
Thanks
Jane

I did tried the encryption on server "A" for database "AdventureWorks2012". Then I tried to restore to server "B". There was the certificate issue, and I thought "of course : it's encrypted ! Let's deactivate it". So here I go "ALTER DATABASE AdventureWorks2012 SET ENCYRPTION OFF".I look at sys.databases : not encrypted.I backup using no encryption, I verify using msdb.dbo.backupset : not encrypted.
I move my backup to my other server where encryption was never configured (so no certificate, nothing...), and I have the error :
Msg 33111, Level 16, State 3, Line 1
Cannot find server certificate with thumbprint '0xFA130E58C999C4919B8975999C83A75A403B11D8'.

Hi,
I have been experiencing difficulties achieving the above.
We have a secure network environment and the connection can only be established from within, not from outside, so basically, there is a rule that allows me to go outbound on port 5022 to our other network.
There is no domain trust relationship, so I have had to create Certificates and use these as the method of authentication.
I have managed to get this working on two other environments where there is two way communication enabled on port 5022.
I thought I might be able to fool it into forcing the mirroring without two-way communication by setting up mirroring in the environment and using the hosts file to change the actual IP address of the server, this didn't work. The mirroring monitor thought that mirroring was still active, but on the other server, the state never changed and was just waiting for something to happen.
I also thought I might be able to turn the transactional safety off, but only to find out that this can only be enabled in the Enterprise version of SQL Server.
The reason why I have been trying to get mirroring working this way, is due to a requirement for an encrypted connection, I know that with SQL Server mirroring you can choose the encrpytion method and the plan was to create snapshots of the database in the other environment, just so we could access the database.
I think we're at a stage where we will be willing to explore other possibilities, so if anyone could point me in the right direction, it would be greatly appreciated.
Please bear in mind, that we're not concerned with redundancy, this is purely to get the data from one point to another.
Thanks,
Akeel.
