Xp_cmdshell Statement Worked In SQL2000 Not In 2005
Dec 7, 2007Code Block
Hi All,
I've got a stored procedure called from a trigger on another database. There are two xp_cmdshell statements in the procedure. One writes a couple variables, passed from the trigger, into a text file. The second fires off an executable that uses the text file via a batch file.
Here's the code that worked on the old 32bit SQL2000 box
Code Block
begin
declare @cmd varchar(150)
select @cmd = 'echo ' + @sVariable1 + ',' + @sVariable2 +' > c:aFolderTextFile.txt'
exec master..xp_cmdshell @cmd
declare @cmd2 varchar(150)
select @cmd2 = 'c:aFolderRun.bat'
exec master..xp_cmdshell @cmd2
end
The new box is 64bit SQL2005. When invoked the stored procedure executes without an error. The textfile is written sucessfully. But, the executable called from the second xp_shell statement does not produce the expected result. Because there is no error I'm having trouble determining where the failure lies.
To troubleshoot the problem I've tried:
Running the batch file from the command prompt in the system32 directory... Success
Using sp_xp_cmdshell_proxy_account to be sure of the credentials of the running xp_cmdshell... Failure
My questions:
Does 64 Bit SQL2005 have a different set of parameters when invoking an executable from xp_cmdshell? ie Do I need to rewrite the batch file?
Is there another way call an executable, SQLCMD maybe?
Any help is appreciated...
Code Block
The batch file if you're curious:
"c:Program Files (x86)someVendersomeAppsomeEXE.exe" "C:aFolderTextFile.txt"

Nov 15, 2007
We replicate a SQL2000 database (DataBaseA) to a SQL2000 database (DataBaseB) by using the Restore function and hasn't change its logical name but only the physical data path and file name. It is running fine for a year. We use the same way to migrate the DataBaseB to a new SQL2005 server with the Restore function and the daily operation is running perfect. However, when we do the Backup of DatabaseB in the SQL2005, it just prompt the error message
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The backup of full-text catalog 'DataBaseA' is not permitted because it is not online. Check errorlog file for the reason that full-text catalog became offline and bring it online. Or BACKUP can be performed by using the FILEGROUP or FILE clauses to restrict the selection to include only online data. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
Please note we left the DataBaseA in the old SQL2000 server.
Please help on how we can delete the Full-text catalog from DatabaseB so we can do a backup
Many Thanks
Spaces In SQL 7 Database Names
Mar 7, 2000Hey all,
Hope I can get some help here.
Have a view that has to reference a table in another database on the same server. This isn't the problem. I am just using Databasename..tablename in the from statement. Get the results required in testing.
The problem is that in production the table name has a space character. i.e. 'accounting info' would be the table name. I have not been able to figure out the proper syntax to capture this properly to reference in the from statement.
I have tried enclosing the name in ' ', " ", [], (), {} and just about every combination I can come up with.
Any help in this would be great, and changing the databse name isn't an option at this time.
Thanx,
Chris
Inserting Text Into SQL 2005 Database Padded With Spaces
Jan 2, 2007I have a Detailsview with Insert and Update options connected to a SQL 2005 table with templated textboxes for input. The textboxes have maxlength set to the number of characters in each respective field in the SQL 2005 table. When text is inserted it gets padded with spaces if all the field length is not used. When you try to edit the field the cursor does not move because of the padded spaces. The End key must be pressed to find the end of the string and the padded space removed before adding edited text. I am working in VB.net. If I check the field in SQL Studio Express is shows the text I typed plus blank space for the remainder of the field.
My question is how can I add text to the textboxes without the padded spaces being added when the maxlength of the field is not used?
Migrating From Sql2000 MSDE Database To Sql2005 Express - Attach Database Errors
Apr 23, 2006I have a medical records system, SoapWare v4.90, that uses MSDE (SQL2000) databases. Due to the 2gb limitation, I am trying to migrate over to SQL 2005 (Standard or Express) which I have heard works fine. The SoapWare has a datamanager that allows me to log in to the MSDE instance, detach the SoapWare databases from msde (as well as do backups, etc) which I can confirm are detached.
Then I log back into a SQL2005 database instance using the datamanager and try to attach the database. This is what their pictured instructions demonstrate. However, I get the following error:
Database 'sw_charts' cannot be upgraded because it is read-only or has read-only files. Make the database or files writeable, and rerun recovery.
Of course, some of the entries will be read only, since doctors have to sign off the charts and are not allowed to subsequently change them. But I should still be able to switch over to sql 2005?!?!?!?
Or... is there a way to attach the databases to SQLExpress manually?
Help pls?

Moving A SQL7 Database To SQL2000
Dec 27, 2002Can anyone tell me of an EASY way to migrate a a database from a SQL 7 server to a SQL 2000 server (two different machines)?
Everything that I have found is only for upgrading SQL 7 to SQL 2000 and this isn't what I need.
Two groups in our company merged into one. The first group has a SQL 7 server that the lease is about to expire on and the second group (mine) has a newer SQL 2000 server that we need to move all of the databases to.
I have tried DTS. It failed. I tried backing up the 7 server and restoring to the new server. It failed.
Are there any other suggestions?
Thanks,

Shrinking SQL2000 Database W 20 Datafiles.
Jul 23, 2005Hello,I am trying to clean up a database I inherited.I have an 80GB SQL 2000 database with 20 datafiles each 4096 in size. Ihave been able to remove unneeded data and am now trying to clean up.If I do a Shrink on each datafile would able to recover on average 2gbout of 4g, however I would prefer to have 10 full datafiles and 10empty. (or better yet 5 full 8GB datafiles and 15 empty)Can someone point me in the right direction on how to move the dataaround so that dont have 20 partially filled datafiles?I have noticed that I can shrink a single file and use the "empty thefile option (and move data to other files in the group)." option. Ihave already done this to the last 2 datafiles as a test but not surehow to do this on a large scale. I have also set the 1st 10 datafilesto be able to grow to 8 GB.For lack of a better way to say this, Is there a way to defrag orreorganize the data ables so everything "moves to the front".BTW, I have already run a maintenance plan to reorganize the data andindex pages.

Apr 23, 2008If I restore a SQL 2000 DB into 2005 it upgrades it for me.
When restoring a DB to a new server/instance of SQL, in SQL 2000 I had to carry out the sp_changedbowner procedure after the restore was complete.
Is the equivalent procedure when restoring a SQL 2000 DB to 2005 to go to the schema for the restored database, find the schema with the name of the SQL 2000 db owner and change the schema owner?
OR alternatively run the following query where mark is the db owner in 2000 and lladmin in the new user in 2005 ;

I'm trying to use a stored procedure to accomplish this, but get an error "Invalid object name 'ngtxa4-rsmsz-01.newpurchase.tblRequest'."

Database And Logfile Growth When Attaching SQL2000 DB To SQL2005
Jun 25, 2007Can anyone tell me why my SQL2000 database has grown aprox 15 % and my Log file 20,000 % when I attach it to SQL2005 .I've Thousands of Databases to Upgrade, but with the log file increasing to more than the size of the Database Its going to be a struggle !
It also takes a fair ammount of time to attach,
I suspect there is some reindexing going on , as when I try to reattach to SQL 2000 I get index errors ?
Is the re anything I can do in advance to reduce the database growth ?
I know I can truncate the log afterward but the peak diskspace consumed during my Migration may be an issue !
Thanks for any help
Is There A Problem Detaching A Database From SQL2000 And Attaching It To SQL2005?
Dec 5, 2007Hi
I have to migrate a SQL2000 database to SQL2005, I tried to use CopyDatabase Wizard (CDW) but invariably stopped all processes (may be for permissions, but I really I don€™t know) so I decided to detach de database, copy files to new server and attach it to SQL2005, it apparently works well, except for the fact that Schemas where created with the name of the users of SQL2000.
Is that correct?
Could it affect the performance or any other thing?
Is correct to do what I did?
Could be another problem in the recently attached database?
(Compatibility, data loss, corrupted structures, collation or something like that)
