Hi..I just restored a databae from backup. After restoring, as usual, from the Enterprises manager, I want to delete the database user and readd again from the DB login name. But when I tried to delete the DB user, it prompts me the following.
"the selected user cannot be dropped because the user owns objects"
why? I never encountered this b4 ? I restored DB again but problem still the same. Any ideas?
I am by no means a db administrator, so I apologize for my ignorance. However I do know that I screwed up and am unable to find the solution...
The small company I work for has a development SQL Server where we do testing and development for web based applications. While using SQL Server Enteprise Manager I accidentally dropped the user's default default database.
I have always been able to access the enteprise manager via windows authentication, but now I am unable to. Is there any way to set the default database back to 'master'? Currently I cannot connect with SQL Query Analyzer for the same reasons, and do not have any other access except via windows authentication. Is there any hope? Any help is much appreciated.
Hello,
I have the following problem that I need to find a solution. I have created a generic user id and login in the model datbase on SQL 7. However the genericuser does not show in the explorer window for some databases, does not work on some databases. I have to go into TSQL and use dropuser to get rid off them and re-link them again.
Does any1 have a clue about why this happening? How it can be solved?
TIA Gurmi

My sql server is setup to use windows authentication. From time to time one of the applications on that server would have issues connecting to that server. I changed it to use sql authentication and all of a sudden all the problems went away.
View 8 Replies View RelatedURL>..n how to deploy (AKA publish) without dropping the users with the DropObjectsNotInSource enabled. With the SSDT September 2012 release I have been testing I seem to be able to ignore permissions and role memberships but not users.In my situation and that of several other folks I have talked to it is a problem trying to manage this. I am thinking of scenarios where there could be (1..n) databases needing the current build (where n is big and not a static number) and need to be updated but the database Users are different for several reasons.
don't have to manually use schema compare to identify objects to drop when we deploy and not drop database users at the target? Because of the dynamic nature of these databases (i.e. 1-n might be on a different release than the current build) we would like to manage security at the source and not the project or post deployment script level.From the MSFT folks is there any hope that we will get a parameter to ignore users when DropObjects otInSource=true in an soon to be released version of SSDT?

Hi, I'm new to SQL Express 2005.
I found information regarding : "Cannot open user default database. Login failed."on this forum but I think that in my case it's a bit different issue.
I have a website (ASP.NET 2.0) accessing DB, in the mean time Windows Service tries to update some data in the same DB (Service runs as NT AUTHORITYLOCAL SYSTEM). The second connection is rejected: "Cannot open user default database. Login failed.Login failed for user ....".
Problem occurs only when both: service and website are running at the same time. So service and website are running without problems when they are connecting DB exclusively.
My connection string is:
"Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename="|DataDirectory|spider-lab.mdf";Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"
I would be grateful if you can help me

Hi,
I'm sorry if this is simple, I'm no DBA but have been tasked with solving this problem...
We have a website that connects via ODBC to SQL Server (2k sp1) and at the moment I am getting back about every other time:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Cannot open user default database. Login failed.
So this is NOT happening every single time. Now I have seen Microsoft KB - 307864 and I can see that none of the databases are marked as suspect, the database I am trying to connect to does exist and is attached and, I have run the command to switch the database to multi-user mode.
The probable cause of this problem is that a while ago we had a hard-drive failure and I was forced to reattach some old datafiles (mdf,ldf) as the database. This seemed ok and I can view data etc in enterprise manager no problem.
I have checked for orphaned users and the user I am logging in with from the webpage is not listed.
So does anyone have a clue as to why this is happening, and more frustratingly for me, why is it only happening some of the time.
Thanks for your help, appreciated.

I am using SharePoint Services 3.0 (SP1) with default configuration options, which installs the Microsoft##SSEE instance of SQL to my local C: drive.
While attempting to relocate the files to another drive, I set one of the databases (as recommended) to Single User by using the SQL Server Management Express tool.
I cannot now reset that database to Multi User, even by executing the query
exec sp_dboption 'database_name', 'single user', ''FALSE'
again by using the Management Express Tool.
Can someone please help, in plain english???? Thanks
Hello,
We have a new production server with SQLserver 2005.
Our department responsible ofr the installation made it as secure as possible, however.
I have to put a new backup on to the server from the old production server.
We ran into a problem when we removed the old database.
I could not longer logon to the server with an authenticated user.
"A connection was successfully established with the server, but an error occured during the login process"
"Shared memory provider : error 0 : No process is on the other end of the pipe"
Strange thing is when i create a new database with the same name. The user can logon to the server again.
Any idea's ?

i'm using the Enterpirse library logger to write logs into a database.
When choosing connection string i choose the database i want in the "connection properties" dialog box and
push 'Test connection' button.
everything goes well.
then i open the SQL Server Management studio express and connect to the databse to check some things,
from that point on , when i push the 'Test Connection' button in the Enterprise library i get the error:
"cannot open user default database. Login failed. login failed for user My'server/MyuserName'"
even when i close the sql server manager , it is still stuck - the connection test doesn't work anymore....
it only work when i restart the computer.
why ?
Is it possible at all to remove the SA login or deny "System Administrator" from it by loggin as another user who has sa previledges
thanks
Hi everyone,
I try to add a db_role or a user to all my databases with one script. Although parsing doesn't report any problem I get a Syntax error during execution.
I first select the database names into a #temp table which has two columns, ID and dbname.
After that I use the following code:
DECLARE @Count smallint
declare @dbVarchar(20)
SET @Count = 1
WHILE (@Count <=(SELECT MAX(ID) FROM #temp))
BEGIN
Exec ("USE @db")
EXEC sp_adduser 'test'
EXEC sp_addrolemember 'my_role', 'testrole'
SET @COUNT = @COUNT + 1
SET @db = (SELECT dbname FROM #temp WHERE ID = @Count)
END
It seems that the "Use @db" part has no value for the variable @db.
Does anybody knows how to solve this?
I am helping another division with a problem of a dropped table. They have no backup and after dropping the table, the server has been re-booted 3 times. Is there a way to recover the table with no backup?
Help anyone,
Thank you.
Here's a poser.
I run a VB application to import data from a text file into a SQL 6.5 database. Typically, there'll be 300,000 records, all of which have to be processed. Time taken will be in excess of 2 hours.
When the application finishes, I try to go into Enterprise Manager and run a Select Count(*) to verify that the data's been imported. Invariably, I get an error reading:
"A connection could not be established to <server> - [SQL Server] Could not allocate a new object descriptor for required system catalog in database '1'. Another database must be closed or objects in another database dropped in order to open this database."
I get the same error whether I try to view Current Activity, open the Query Tool or simply expand the server in the Server Manager area.
Usually, it means I have to re-boot the server, which is not popular with other users. Does anybody know what's causing this and what might be the solution?
Thanks.
I believe I deleted a maintenance plan that was attached to a job and therefore have received the following message:
Drop failed for Job 'Shrink DSS Database.Subplan_1'. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
An execption occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch. (Microsoft.SqlSserver.connectionInfo)
The DELETE statement conflicted with the REFERENCE constraint "FK_subplan_job_id". The conflict occurred in database "msdb", table "dbo.sysmaintplan_subplans", column 'job_id'.
The statement has been terminated. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 547)
Is there a T-SQL or other means I can use to remove this constraint and delete the job show it does not show up in SQL Server Management Studio any longer?

ONLY ONE of our many stored procedure is getting dropped in SQL 7.0. We were not able to find thru SQL Profiler. Let me know any alternate methods to find it or the possible reasons why/how the sp is getting dropped.

View 3 Replies View RelatedAfter installing a Zen Cart plugin I was getting errors that there was a duplicate entry for the mysql table so I went in and dropped the table assuming that it would come back when I re - installed everything, anyways I have the PHP code that created the table but not sure how to recreate it or if that's even possible. Also my main way to get to change anything is phpMyAdmin, I tried importing the code there but that didn't work.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
In my local instance of SQL Server at work (which I use for testing), somehow all of the logins except 2 were dropped. The administrators group no longer exists as a login (nor do any other windows users or groups)-the only 2 remaining are sa (which is disabled) and a SQL login I had created earlier which has no permissions except read permission on master. I can login as this SQL user, but I do not have permissions to create logins or enable the sa account. Do I have any options other than uninstalling and reinstalling my local instance?
Thanks,

I am testing sql server 2005 in different disaster situations happened under 2000. I was reading a lot about no update on system tables, so:
sp_detach_db 'tempdb'
In sql 2000 i could issue something like the following command to recover:
use master
sp_configure 'allow updates', 1
reconfigure with override
go
insert sys.sysdatabases (name, dbid, sid, mode, status, status2, crdate, reserved, category, cmptlevel, filename, version)
values ('tempdb', 2, 0x01, 0, 8, 1090520064, '2007-01-27 13:03:10.873', '1900-01-01 00:00:00.000', 0, '90', 'D:eepmssql emp empdb.mdf', 611)
go
sp_configure 'allow updates', 0
reconfigure with override
go
As tempdb is hardcoded db id 2, I do not have a chance to recover without a master backup.
Of course, this situation can be recovered using a master backup, but it is not always available.
Thank you for your comments.
