Sqlcmd - Empty Serverlist
Dec 18, 2006At the end of my rope here ... I was using SQL Express 2005 without trouble, until one day I couldn't access my database. I spent a day hunting down the issue without success. I uninstalled and reinstalled SQL Server many times, each time hoping it would somehow help ...
I can access SQL Server just fine through SQL Server Management Studio Express. I can get in by typing "sqlcmd -S {my machine name}SQLEXPRESS". However, I am working on a FoxPro application, and I cannot connect using FoxPro. It doesn't even seem to recognize the existence of SQL Server on the machine. Also, when I log in using sqlcmd, and type ":serverlist", I would expect my SQLEXPRESS instance to show up. It doesn't - the list of servers is empty. I suspect this is the problem, but have no idea what may be causing it.
Cumulatively, I've probably spent 3 work days trying to figure this out. Does anyone have any pointers or ideas that might help me figure out why ":serverlist" doesn't list my machineSQLEXPRESS, even though I can log in fine using Management Studio? Any help would be very much appreciated. Thank you,
matt
Question About Instance Name On Sqlserver 2005 And Sqlcmd
May 1, 2006Hello,
I am using sqlcmd for SQL server 2005. I install sql2005 with default instance name. It should be MSSQLSERVER.
However, when using sqlcmd, like sqlcmd -S (local)MSSQLSERVER, it always aborts and suggests a wrong connection string.
I try to find any instance name under servername, but I can't find a command argument with sqlcmd.
So how can I solve the connection string problem? I can connect to the server using "sqlcmd -s (local)" though.
Or, how can I find the instance name of the server? Or maybe any gramma error using sqlcmd to access instance name?
Thanks for your any inputs.
Regards,
Aaron
Sqlcmd.exe Login Problem
Jun 19, 2007I can Add a connection to the database in VisualStudio 2005 in the Solution Explorer and access the database. Connection string copied from VS "Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=C:TempMyDB.mdf;Integrated Security=True;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True".
If i start the command prompt and type:
sqlcmd -SlocalhostSQLEXPRESS -E -d c: empMyDB.mdf
I get the error "Login failed for user 'MyDomainPer'"
As I see it integrated authentication with the same user is used in both cases so they should give the same result. What am I doing wrong?
Insert Varbinary Data Using Command-line Sqlcmd

SQLCMD Command Prompt Window Not Functioning Properly
Sep 15, 2007The MSDN Library topic Using the sqlcmd utility(SQL Server Express) states "To access the sqlcmd utility, click Start, click Run, and type sqlcmd.exe."
A command prompt window opens with "SQLCMD" in the title bar. I cannot enter anything in the command prompt window and the window remains open for only about five or six seconds.
The version I have installed is MS SQL Server 2005 Express with SP2. The cumulative updates package 3 does not list this problem, so I did not install it.

SQLCMD - How Do I Pass Parameter At Dos Command Line To Input File?
Mar 23, 2007I am not sure if this has been asked before but I couldn't find any thread talking about this.
Let's say we have a parameter in the .sql input file called @Start_Date, how can we pass the value of a particular date, for example, "02-28-2007" to @Start_Date via SQLCMD? is it possible?
I'm trying to skip the need to write a simple windows application...if things can be achieved via dos command line, that will keep everything simple!
thanks! :)
Sqlcmd On SQL EXPRESS: Access Denied During CREATE DATABASE Command
Apr 24, 2007
Scenario:
I have installed SQL Express 2005 and I want to create a new DB using sqlcmd.
I am running a command like: sqlcmd -i file.ini (I am logged like Administrator of PC)
the content of the file.ini is:
-- Get the SQL Server data path
DECLARE @data_path nvarchar(256);
SET @data_path = 'c:Program FilesMyTestdatabase'
-- execute the CREATE DATABASE statement
EXECUTE ('CREATE DATABASE DataCollection ON
( NAME = DC_dat,
FILENAME = '''+ @data_path + 'DC.mdf'',
SIZE = 10,
MAXSIZE = 50,
FILEGROWTH = 5 )
LOG ON
( NAME = DC_log,
FILENAME = '''+ @data_path + 'DClog.ldf'',
SIZE = 5MB,
MAXSIZE = 25MB,
FILEGROWTH = 5MB )'
) ;
GO
I obtain this error:
Msg 1802, Level 16, State 4, Server TESTQ5SQLEXPRESS, Line 1
CREATE DATABASE failed. Some file names listed could not be created. Check related errors.
Msg 5123, Level 16, State 1, Server TESTQ5SQLEXPRESS, Line 1
CREATE FILE encountered operating system error 5(Access is denied.) while attempting to open or create the physical file 'c:Program FilesMyTestdatabaseDC.mdf'.
If I change the security of directory database (I add "modify" permission to Users windows group) the error disappear.
I am logged like Administrator... why is it necessary to change directory permission?
Domain Account Without A SQL Login Account
Apr 25, 2007I have a situation that I have discovered in our QA database that I need to resolve. When I looked at the Activity Monitor for our server, I discovered that a process is running under a domain user account for one of our .Net applications. The problem is that that domain user account has not been created as a SQL login account on the server. I am trying to figure out how someone can log in to the database server with a domain user account that has not been added to SQL Server as a login account.
Does anyone have any insight on this? I don't like the idea of someone being able to create domain account that can access the database without me granting them specific access.

Default Password For Sa Account
Oct 25, 2004Hai,
While installing SQL Server 2000 on my Windows 2000 Advanced Server, i choose Windows Authentication mode, so i was not able to enter a password for sa account. And after installation, in Enterprise Manager i could still see sa account under logins but the account has a password.
So my question is what is the default password for sa account when we choose Windows Authentication mode and is it possible to change the mode from windows Authentication to Mixed Authentication mode after installation, with out re-installaing SQL Server 2000.
Thank you in advance
With regards

The Password Of The Account Must Be Changed
Feb 26, 2007I am trying to adapt a vb6 application to support sqls 2005 features. I am using SQL Server Authentication and want to support the feature which forces the user to change his password on the next login. Using an SQLOLEDB connection string, on trying to log I get an error saying that the password must be changed - fair enough - but how can I do this? I would have expected to be able to supply both old and new passwords in the connection string, but there does not seem to be any such feature. Am I missing something obvious?
Account Password Is Changed
Sep 17, 2015Couldn't able to login with sa account, seems someone having admin account have changed this sa password.Is there any way to determine who and when have changed this password.It is known that SQL can't log this information in its log, is there any other ways.
View 7 Replies View RelatedSys Admin Account Password Change
Jun 20, 2000If someone can tell if it is wise change the SA account password after all of your databases have been set up using NT Authentication for login. Also, by using the sa password at login are you providing more security and and who should have access to that password (Your developers or your Administrators?)

Service Account Password Change - Help!
Dec 3, 1999Ugh! Someone changed the password of our SQL Server service account. It is called syssql, and it is used by the MSSQLServer and SQL Executive services to log in at startup. After the password was changed, we noticed that replication wasn’t running, and since I know that replication uses the Executive service, I restarted that service using the new password. That worked to get replication working again, and since the boxes were production machines I didn’t restart the MSSQLServer service with the new password yet. Now, our syssql account keeps on locking up every so often, and scheduled tasks that use xp_sendmail stopped working, and alerts stopped sending. Is this happening because of the MSSQLServer service still being logged in with the old password? I suspect that the SQL Mail logs in through the MSSQLServer service, which is still using the old password, and the login failures are causing the syssql account to lock. Any other ideas???

Changing The Password For SQL Service Account
Apr 16, 2008We are running SQL Server 2000 on two servers and when they were built, the same domain account was used for all installations, and the MSSQLSERVER and SQLServerAgent services run logged in as that same account. That account is also the dbo of all the SQL databases. We now need to change the password and possibly disable that domain account.
What do we need to do to make sure the SQL Servers and databases continue to run without problems after making the password change and/or disabling the account?
I appreciate any advice!
Service Master Key And SQL Account Password...
Aug 22, 2006Wjen sql 2005 is installed a Service Master key is generated using the password of the account under which sql 2005 server runs.
Suppose I use a domain account to run sql server. The account password will change every so often. I presume this change will not impact the validity of the existing Service master key and therefore any data indirectly encrypted by it. Am I correct?

Problem In Changing Account Name, Password
Jun 29, 2006Hi
I installed SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. When I try changing the account name, password in the SQL Server Configuration Manager, i.e. by clicking on Apply, the SQLEXPRESS restarts and the password gets replaced by a longer password. Also the user name gets prefixed with "./". Any help on this will be highly appreciated.
Another query: Do we have the query analyser (gui or command line) kind of thing in Express Edition? Also where can I get a proper documentation of doing elementary things in setting up a database, like creating a database, adding a user, etc)
Thanks and Regards

Moved Aspnetdb To SQL Server - What Permissions Do I Need To Give The ASP IIS Service Account For That? (Getting: Cannot Open Database Aspnetdb Requested By The Login. The Login Failed.)
May 12, 2008I am getting the error:
Cannot open database "aspnetdb" requested by the login. The login failed.
When I browse to my ASP.NET 3.5 LINQ web application on the IIS 6.0 server on Server 2003.
I imagine this is because while I granted SQL Server 2005 login and permissions to my database that the application stores its data in, I did NOT grant any rights to the service account the IIS Application Pool uses for its identity to the aspnetdb database on SQL Server which is where all my roles information is stored at.
My question is what are the MINIMUM permissions needed for this database so it can perform its roles related functions?
I'm using Windows Authentications with the SQL Role provider for authorization.
Thank you.
EDIT: I think I only need to open the aspnetdb database and add my login to the aspnet_Roles_FullAccess role. Is that correct?
Alter Login Fails When Login Changes His Own Password
Apr 11, 2008
I have seen alot of comments posted about an Issue in SQL2005 that no one at microsoft could really answer. If a user would try to alter his own login, it would fail stating a permissions error.
This is what I did to get it to work .
USE my_dataBase
GO
Alter Login [my_login] WITH PASSWORD = 'newpassword' OLD_PASSWORD = 'oldpassword'
In previous examples, people were trying to do an alter login without first narrowing it to the database.
If you do not include the USE statement it will fail.
Another thing to note is that they can only change certain things....they cannot turn off check_policy or check_expiration.
Happy Coding

What happens if I change the password.
