From Test Environment To Web Hosting Company
Jul 9, 2006
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?

I developed my first webpage using c#, VS2005 and SQL Express and it works fine in my Computer.
Tried to upload it to a hosting company, they have SQL 2005 Server.
I can surf through the pages but nothing that has to do with the database works.
Is there anything I should have done before uploading the site?
Please help.

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.

Now you all must admit that, if your somewhat new to this databasing, It's a ***.
The source for my application is Visual Web Designer 2005 Express
It is an ASP.Net driven site with membership roles and all the good stuff.
the latest theory is that I need to change the provider config in the web.config file from AspNetSqlProvider
to something else. Most of my complications and frustrations come from GoDaddy and no access to the
shared server (understandibly).
I hope I gave enough info for help and not too much..

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.

I just got my first job doing some DBA work (junior level) in a small company using SQL Server 2000.
I would like to make a copy of the production DB and use it for development of SP's, DTS packages and views.
What is the safest way for me to copy the entire production DB, to a new DB on the same server?
Should I create a new DB, and do a restore of the production backup?
Any help would be appreciated,
Thank you.

I am debating whether to go to all the trouble of setting up on-demand Profiler traces on some test servers for the developers here. Really just tracing RPC:Completed and SQL:BatchCompleted, so the developers can at least try to catch a performance problem before going to production. The question I have, though, is just how useful is this sort of information to mid- to low-level (i.e. experience) developers. One of the bigger concerns is over Java applications, which like to hide their queries behind a lot of "sp_cursorfetch" calls.
My question to the forum is if you are a developer, have you ever dreamed of having this sort of information available? How useful is it?
I am going to try to post a poll along with this, but I am not sure it will work..

Hi there,
We have a production database that was generated by a vendor. The vendor wants us to test a new version of their software. This testing process will take several months. The users want the testing to be as real time as possible. I have developed a series of scripts that will back up our databases and ship them over to our test environment on a nightly basis. We also of course have nightly backups. As a general rule, we do full backups once a week and differentials on a nightly basis.
We are a phone company that has transactions being applied to the database 7 X 24.
My question is this: Is there a way (an option or something) that when my backup of the production database which is destined for the test environment runs, I can tell it to not set the flags that indicate a backup has been done. What I want to avoid is the differential backup process from being 'Confused' about what backup it is doing a differential for.
I would appreciate any help or insight you can give me.
Thanks! - Eric-

I am try to put together options in regard to creating a test environment for our Dynamics NAV system. The environment will be mainly used to test new releases / changes ahead of applying them to production.The 2 options I am considering are…
1.Create a second Test instance on our Production SQL Server to host a test database
2.Purchase a set of SQL developer licences and having a totally separate server for our test environment.
My preference would be option 2. However I need to build a convincing case that this is the best way forward. I wondered if I could tap into the thoughts of the SQL Central community and see how other approach this.

So, we are about 3 weeks away from going into production, and somehow we failed to give much thought to deploying our RS project into production.
We have over 110 report models that need to be deployed into production, and until now, we just deploy into our dev and test environments using Visual Studio. But, in our production environment, our deployers will not have Visual Studio.
Is there any simply backup/restore method that can be used to move our test environment into production? Please don't suggest a copy of each file one at a time /sigh.
Appreciated,
Scott

We will be implementing our first SQL cluster in December. Our current plan calls for a shared development/test database server with one physical server, but two SQL Server instances. Our production environment will be a SQL cluster. Is it necessary to create a clustered test environment for testing patches, hot-fixes, etc...?

Setting up Transaction Replication in test environment. I am willing to bet that most of you take a production backup (if so, how, and using what?), restoring the database to your test environment, then running a snapshot to your subscriber and away you go.
But perhaps you take a backup of your publisher and subscriber, if so, how do you know there are no inconsistences because there were transactions sitting on the distributor?
What do you do if you have additional indexes on the subscriber for reporting, that are not on the publisher?
Here at work we are having issues with getting consistent databases set up with T Rep, missing rows, duplicate keys at subscriber etc. How to avoid these issues.

We are setting up a test lab environment with 100 machines. We want one master testing db that gets replicated to each to run scripted application tests nightly.
My goal is to minimize the amount of work to move this thing to each of the 100 test machines. I am wondering if we need to even have the sql local and invest in a monster db server with 100 copies of the db we restore and each test machine point to their own db on that server, or if I should use db mirroring or something to get the master test db to each of those machines instead.

ixwebhosting.com don't have a import feature in their control panel.
I have to maintain the SQL at ixwebhosting.com using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express since they don't have that feature in their cp. I don't see any import features in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express either.
How can I import it using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express or another free GUI program?

I need some help devising my tables.
I have a company table and a address table. I have created a linked table with two foreign keys from the company table and the address table respectively.
This set up allows me to apply more than one address per company which is fine. My problem is that I need a way to prevent a company from entering exactly the same address twice.
In the address table i have the following fields:
AddressKey - PK
CompanyKey - FK
Address 1 - 3
Town
County
Country
PostCode
In the company table I have the following fields.
CompanyKey - PK
FirstName
Secondname
And finally in the link table I have the following:
CompanyKey - FK
AddressKey - FK.
Now, if i entered the following into the address table Assuming that company id of 1 was already entered into the company table.
AddressKey - 1, CompanyKey = 1, Address1 = 11 Address2= Taylor
I need a way of preventing this from happening.
AddressKey - 2, CompanyKey = 1, Address1 = 11 Address2= Taylor
As can be seen the PK - FK values are unique and are correct for referential integrity, but the actual address is the same.
Any help we be mostly appreciated.
Cheers

We deal with multiple vendors who provide us information via text/xml files. Vendor A may provide financial data, vendor b provides litigation data, vendor c provides ratings data. Our current structure has databases for each vendor with its own company table which basically makes all this data disconnected. Of course each vendor has its own proprietary company id to make records unique.
All of the data is based on companies so the grain of data would be at a company level. I would like to be able to link this information together by creating a dimensional model that has a single company table (DimCompany) and has facts populated based on the type of data we receive. Would this be the right sequence of events?
1. My initial load (historical) would have to look at all these data sources and create one company record in my DimCompany table. This table would then link to all other fact tables to provide a single view of company info. I would imagine this would have to be a fuzzy lookup since one company will be in all sources.
2. On subsequent loads (incremental) I would probably have to do a lookup of companies in the dimension via the proprietary code and add if the company wasn't there.
Any advice on tackling this issue would be greatly appreciated especially if SSIS was used in the process.

I have a database that allows a client to have multiple addresses, could be a home, business, vacation, etc... I'm trying to deside if I should put the Company Name and Title fileds in the tblClientAddresses table or keep it with the tblClient table. We do mailings to clients and if the mail is going to a home address the company and title should be excluded. If I put them in the tblClients table I really have no way of knowing if we are mailing to a home or a company. If i put the company and title with the address it makes sence that this would solve the issue.
Looking for any thoughts or suggestions?

My Name is Nick Soutter, I am the owner of a small game company, Aepox Games(We're in the middle of a name change from "Lamar Games"),www.lamargames.net.Our first commercial game, Andromeda Online (www.andromedaonline.net) isgoing into beta soon. It runs on an evaluation edition of SQL Server 2000(our intention is, when it launches, we earn the money to buy a copy beforethe evaluation expires).We have been testing Andromeda Online, and found that saves to the databasetake about 10 seconds (we were anticipating less than 1). We felt we needsomebody experienced in optimizing sql databases to help us optimize thedatabase, and get it running in the best method for our particularapplication.Our program accesses the database in Java, and people with understanding inhow to optimize java connections would be a tremendous help.My company is small, and we honestly cant afford much. Everybody on thisproject, from the sound guys to the graphic artist, has worked for 1/10 to1/100 of the value of the job. We're simply a starting company looking fordedicated people who are willing to work more for credit than money.We can offer credit on our website(http://www.andromedaonline.net/credits.html) to anybody who helps us, butlittle more (maybe $100, but we're very over budget, and in desperate needof help). Because of how we intend the game to run (with maybe 100-200concurrent games running online), a 10 second save time is simplyunacceptable.Anybody who would be willing to help us, please send a resume toJoin Bytes!. Experience would be nice, but not a requirement.We're looking for someone who can talk with our programmer about the typesof calls made to our SQL database, and then can log into the DB and optimizeit to run as fast as possible considering our specific needs.Thank you for your time.Nick SoutterAepox (Lamar) Games
