Determining What Are System Objects In Sp_help Or System Tables
Jul 20, 2005
Hi,
I have a few things on my databases which seem to be neither true system
objects or user objects - notably a table called 'dtproperties' (created
by Enterprise manager as I understand, relating to relationship graphing
or something) and some stored procs begining with "dt_" (some kind of
source control stuff, possible visual studio related). These show up when
I use
"exec sp_help 'databaseName'"
but not in Ent. Mgr. or in Query Analyzer's object browser, and also not
in a third party tool I use called AdeptSQL. I am wondering how those
tools know to differentiate between these types of quasi-system objects,
and my real user data. (This is for the purpose of a customized schema
generator I am writing). I'd prefer to determine this info with system
stored procs (ie sp_help, sp_helptex, sp_...etc) but will dip into the
system tables if needed.
I have created a windows library control that accesses a local sql database
I tried the following strings for connecting
Dim connectionString As String = "Data Source=localhostSQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=TimeSheet;Trusted_Connection = true"
Dim connectionString As String = "Data Source=localhostSQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=TimeSheet;Integrated Security=SSPI"
I am not running the webpage in a virtual directory but in
C:Inetpubwwwrootusercontrol
and I have a simple index.html that tries to read from an sql db but throws
the error
System.Security.SecurityException: Request for the permission of type 'System.Data.SqlClient.SqlClientPermission, System.Data, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed. at System.Security.CodeAccessSecurityEngine.Check(Object demand, StackCrawlMark& stackMark, Boolean isPermSet) at System.Security.PermissionSet.Demand() at System.Data.Common.DbConnectionOptions.DemandPermission() at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.PermissionDemand() at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnectionFactory.PermissionDemand(DbConnection outerConnection) at System.Data.ProviderBase.DbConnectionClosed.OpenConnection(DbConnection outerConnection,
etc etc
The action that failed was: Demand The type of the first permission that failed was: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlClientPermission The Zone of the assembly that failed was: Trusted
I looked into the .net config utility but it says unrestricted and I tried adding it to the trusted internet zones in ie options security
I think that a windows form connecting to a sql database running in a webpage should be simple
I m new for sql 2005.I intalled it successfully.But i m not able to see system objects in table folder in master database.I have installed competibility package too. any other idea.
I wonder if anyone can help ...Today I tried to create another non-clustered index on a table. Thisfailed as I apparently already had 249 non-clustered indexex on thetable. Looking at the definition of the table there were 90 or soindexes already defined and not 249. (For those of you who quiterightly think 90 indexes on a table is a little over the top, I hastento add that this is a third party CRM system called "Siebel" which comeswith it's own database). However, examining the sysindexes systemcatalog I find that there are indeed 249 entries, but that many(possibly all) of them have names of the following type:'_WA_Sys_XYZ_356BF102'where 'XYZ' is a column on the table in question.Looking at the same database across our DEV/TEST/PROD environments Inotice that these system like index entries are not consistant. Thenames and number of entries differ. I've tried creating a new tablefrom a script generated in EM and no such indexes/system objects arecreated.I'm confused. What are these things. I can't drop them, sp_helpindexdoesn't refer to them. Examining the sysindexes/sysindexkeys catalogsappears to suggect that the indexes have columns but no rows/entries.I've got around the immediate problem by deleting one of these entriesfrom sysindexes and I've been able to create the index I wanted. Allseems well, but is this likely to cause a problem ?Thanks in advanceLaurence Breeze
I'm looking for a tool or script that can wipe a database clean of any and all user configured service broker objects.
I've got two environments, Development and QA, that I need to have parallel service broker configurations. Each environment is hosted on a different set of servers. I need to make sure the Development environment looks exactly like the QA environment from a Service Broker perspective (other than the specific service broker instance references in the installed routes). I've got a script to build the objects that I want, but the Development environment is full of artifacts of abandoned experiments. Before running the creation script in Development, I'd like to start with a clean slate. Recreating the Development databases is not an option.
If a tool or script is not available, I know I need to adress at least the following object types, but I'm not sure if this list covers everything or in which order I need to drop which objects: routes, remote service bindings, certificates, database principals, tcp endpoints, services, queues, contracts, and message types
Does anyone know the logic that Enterprise Manager/SQL Server uses to distinguish system objects from user objects. I've looked through all the sysobjects in the database and there doesn't seem to be any unique logic for seperating all objects. User tables are easily distinguished from system tables (U/S) but thats not the case with stored procedures and views. I'm looking for suggestions... Thanks, Adam
We installed SP1 for SQL Server 2014 this past weekend and got this error message in the logs. I found that if you set the db to read-write, it updates the system objects, even after SP1 has completed. Then you can set it back to read-only. I'm just posting this so other people can find it on the internet, as I wasn't able to find it specifically.
Error Log Entry:System objects could not be updated in database 'x' because it is read-only.
Problem: After installing SP1 for SQL Server 2014 you will find this message in the error logs saying read-only databases could not be updated.
Solution: Simply set the db to read-write and the system objects will get updated, long after SP1 was installed.
ALTER DATABASE [x] SET READ_WRITE WITH NO_WAIT
Then set it back to read-only:
ALTER DATABASE [x] SET READ_ONLY WITH NO_WAIT
You should then see these log entries:
System objects could not be updated in database 'x' because it is read-only. Setting database option READ_WRITE to ON for database 'x'. Starting up database 'x'. CHECKDB for database 'x' finished without errors on 2015-07-25 01:02:28.143 (local time). This is an informational message only; no user action is required. Synchronize Database 'x' (129) with Resource Database. Setting database option READ_ONLY to ON for database 'x'. Starting up database 'x'. CHECKDB for database 'x' finished without errors on 2015-07-25 01:02:29.888 (local time). This is an informational message only; no user action is required.
I have been creating databases in SQL 2008 with a primary filegroup for the system objects and a secondary, marked Default, for the data.
We are preparing a migration to SQL 2014, and the administrator is complaining he won't adopt this structure on the new servers because 'there is no benefit' and 'a backup cannot be restored (!?)'.
Reporting services is configured to use a custom security extension in the following Environment.

when i go to http://servername/reports , the UIlogon.aspx page loads fine and i enter username and password. but i get logon failed.
when i go to http://servername/reportserver , the logon.aspx does not load and i get the following error message :

Ok guys, I am trying to install Sql server 2005 on Vista but I am still stuck with this warning message in the System Configuration Check during Sql server 2K5 installation :
SQL Server Edition Operating System Compatibility (Warning) Messages * SQL Server Edition Operating System Compatibility
* Some components of this edition of SQL Server are not supported on this operating system. For details, see 'Hardware and Software Requirements for Installing SQL Server 2005' in Microsoft SQL Server Books Online.
Now, I know I need to install SP2 but how the hell I am going to install SP2 if Sql server 2005 doesn't install any of the components including Sql server Database services, Analysus services, Reporting integration services( only the workstation component is available for installation)?
Any work around for this issue?
P.S.: I didn't install VS.NET 2005 yet, can this solve the problem?
I have scripts to refresh database as SQL daily jobs. (O.S is Win2K3 and SQL server 2000 and SP4) It was worked and I got the following message this morning from SQL error log.

Found a similar problem in a different thread, but couldn't find any solution. I was wondering if there is an open case for this issue?
I'm trying to use sp_help to get information on my tables. I can usesp_help alone to get a list of objects (including user tables), butwhen I pass a table name as an argument I get the following errormessage:exec sp_helpexec sp_help parcelServer: Msg 15009, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_help, Line 71The object 'DGM_HILLSHADE2' does not exist in database 'raster'.The table clearly exists, but sp_help fails to find it and returninfo. This is the case in a couple of my databases. I'm connected as'sa' so it seems to me it shouldn't be a permissions problem, right?D Bull
I want to know where I can find Object permission detailes, For example I have table1 and user "abc", I have given permission to user "abc" for table1 to "SELECT" "INSERT", "UPDATE", I want to know where this detail is stored in system table. I was looking at "SYSUSERS","SYSLOGINS", "SYSPERMISSIONS", "SYSMEMBERS", "SYSOBJECTS" I couldn't find anything, If some one can post your answers that will be great.
I have succesffuly BCP out system tables(sysdatabases, sysdevices, syslogins, and sysusages). Now I want to BCP those same tables IN to create devices, databases and so on using the BCP utility. I run the same command used to BCP out and only changes the OUT to IN but it did not work. Can somebody whose done this before tell me how to do it.
Where can I find a discussion of how to interpret the keys1 and keys2 columns of the sysindexes table? These columns are binary(255) and are supposed to contain a description of the columns to which the index applies. I also need to know how to interpret the status column of the sysconstraints column.
I've one Sybase DBA asking this question, Is this really true, Pls help me.
Due to architectural changes in SQL Server 7.0, you cannot dump the transaction log if a database's system tables are inaccessible (due to media failure, for instance)in 7.0 and later versions. Microsoft recommends that separate devices be used for system tables and user tables to allow a final log backup to take place in the event the data device is inaccessible. The additional exposure incurred by not doing this is possible loss of data for the interval between the last transaction dump and the point of failure.
I'm doing an impact analysis to see what views / stored procedures etc are impacted by a change to columns in a table. I'm using the system tables to identify these changes, and it is something that I'll have to repeat across all our databases in case the tables are being accessed from elsewhere.
I'd like to make sure I'm doing it the right way so could someone point me in the direction of a good article or code for doing this.
I dont want to see these at all and cannot find where tospecify a view or modification of a view. can someone throw me abone here and tell me where to make the adjustments if I can make themat allMichael
I have created a linked server XYZ that is linked to server ABC. I am tying to view the tables via XYZ but I'm unable to do so. I can only see the system tables. When I run a select statement, I get the correct results. That means I have the access to the tables, yet why am I not able to see the tables.
I am trying to put the data from a field in my database into a row in a table using the SQLDataSource.Select statement.
