How Track Changes Of A Table In Sql Server 2000 Database
Jan 4, 2006
Hi
anyone please help!
I have created the database driven web application with asp.net and sql server 2000. now I want keep track three operation(insert, updata and delete) that have been made on tables in a SQL Server 2000 database. what i did is:
1, create a audit table with columns: auditTable, actions, actionUser, actionTime
2, create three trigger(insert, update and delect respectivily) for every table
my problem is that i can not get right user name. I use form authentication and i stored user login information in the database. every time, no matter who is logining to the web application, the action user is always SA. I user user-name() function to get userName(actionUser).
Please anyone can help me to get current login user name, or tell the best way to track operations on a table.
I am trying to track unallocated space (because on my database growth is not kicking in) So using below query but not working!!! Is there any way I can track 'database size' and 'unallocated space' on a single database?
I am only DBA in my company and client want to know the growth rate of his SQL server DataBase which is in production. How can I get the growth rate per day?
I have a specific requirement. I need to insert the DML statements executed from Management Studio into a SQL table. We have SQL Server 2008 R2 and 2012 instances.
I would like to know about the DML process (Insert/update /delete) in a particular table .. it is like change tracking but I also want to know the modification date
I know CDC ( Change data capture ) but unfortunately it needs SQL 2008 developer/enterprise edition and my SQL server is SQL 2008 STANDARD edition.
While my application is running on the production server, I want to develop on the test server. After a few weeks, I want to update the application, and have to update the database structure on the production server also with the most recent one from the testserver, but without deleting the current data on the production server.
I create/modify all tables in SQL Server 2005 via Management Studio. The application is built in VS2008 Pro. I'm using SubVersion (SVN).
I can let Management Studio generate scripts for every change and store them manualy, but that's a little bit too much work. What I want is a sort off version control solution. A solution that a service running on the background tracks every change on a specific database on my test server, and stores them as T-SQL code in a repository. Then I can collect all those T-SQL scripts, and run them against the production server.
I'm trying to replicate a table(s) in access 2000 to MS SQL server 2000/2005 programatically on a timed instance and then have these tables merged in SQL to create one table.
I have a requirement. I am having a database which is having views,procedures and tables. Many users are having access to the database. If i want to track all the schema changes happening in the database how to achieve that? As in i have used some tables in a procedure and someone might change the column or drop the column. So it is going to have impacts on my procedure. I need a trigger which tracks all the changes done in a database and the impacts those changes are going to make.
I am an advanced user of MS Access and other databases but relatively new to SQL Server. I am utilizing SQL Server Express to analyze a database that was created by another entity. I am interested in looking at any specific record in any table and seeing who created that record, what date/time the record was created, who edited the record, when that edit occurred, etc. I don't see any such fields in the database. Would the designer of the database have to have explicitly added such functionality, or is this information available but just hidden from the novice's view?
Hi, we are almost finished developing our database and we have a table we want to monitor because it is getting information deleted from it and it has a delete trigger on it but we want to track the changes to the table and were wondering how to track specific changes to a user database? We want to see who is making the change, what the change they are making is and also what is the time they are making it. I have used SELECT * FROM SYSPROCESSES and I am running SQL TRACE with filter on MS SQLEW, and MS TRANS, and Visual Basic with SQL statements on tblRoute,( the table that I want to monitor) and I want to know if there is any other way to monitor this table more closely?
I'm actually taking Microsoft's 2779 and just finished a lab where wekept track of our changes to the database.However, I'm not happy with the scripts interface because it does nottell me the chronological order of my changes to the database.Could someone share with me their technique for keeping track ofdatabase changes?I'm actually thinking a set of tables would be best, because sometimesyou want to know what database object you made a change to and othertimes you want to know when you did something...
I'm building an application that tracks courses and equivalent courses. For example, say I have course A which a user should get credit for if they have taken equivalent courses. So if a user has taken (course B or course C) AND (course D or course E) he should get credit for Course A. What's the best way to setup a SQL table to create these type of equivalent relationships?
I am looking to track any changes made to any table within a db into a single audit table which will hold as fields: the table that has been updated/inserted, the field that was changed, its primary key, the old value and the new value specific to that field, and the date it was updated/inserted.
From what I have read, it does not look like this is possible with a trigger on table as it is not row specific and that I might have to control this from the business layer (vb.net). I am correct in this assumption, or is there a way of tracking specific data changes through triggers.
We have a particular database sat on SQL Server 2012 box along with about 20 other databases.
What I require is a method/Script/Audit that will simply track anyone who logs (successfully / unsuccessful) into this one particular database on the server (The single database is the key as the end user does not want information on any of the other databases that sit on the server), it also has to log time the attempt was made and it must track the logins via SQL Server or the application itself that is attached to the database.
Working on a "social networking site" and would like to have something that records a member's interactions within the site.So for instance if a member uploads a photo, I would like to record it and then display it as "[Member] added photo" with a link to the photo. Also, if a friend is accepted as a friend "[Member1] is now friends with [Member2]" and also if a member posts a comment on the forums "[Member] posted message in [ForumName]" with link to post.This is very similar to Facebook's News Feeds and MySpace Friend Updates.The only way I can think of having this is having an Activity table with a field for each different Id I want to record and an associated list of tracked Actions:Activity:idmemberIdactionTypePhotoIdMember2IdForumIdThen there would be the ActionType tableactionIdNameThe biggest problem I see with this solution is that I would need to add a new field in the Activity table for each different type of activity I would like to track. This could get pretty big as I begin to track more and more activity items.Is there some way I can generalize this. - Andy
I am using Northwind database to Create a view showing every order that was shipped to Spain. Name the destination column 'DestinationSpain'. Include code that checks if the view already exists. If it does, it should be dropped and re-created.
Here is my script:
use Northwind GO
/*STEP 2, #1*/
/* does it exist, if so drop it */ if exist (select * from dbo.sysobjects where id = object_id(N'[dbo].[OrdersToSpain]') and OBJECTPROPERTY(id, N'IsView') = 1) drop view [dbo].[OrdersToSpain] GO
/* Create the View */ create view "OrdersToSpain" AS SELECT Orders.OrderID AS Order_ID, Orders.CustomerID AS Customer_ID, Orders.OrderDate AS Ordered_Date. Orders.ShippedDate AS Shipped_Date, Orders.ShipCountry AS DestinationSpain FROM Customers INNER JOIN Orders ON Customers.CustomerID = Orders.CustomerID WHERE Orders.ShipCounty LIKE '%SPAIN%' GO
Here are the errors I am getting:
Server: Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Line 5 Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'select'. Server: Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Line 6 Line 6: Incorrect syntax near ')'. Server: Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Procedure OrdersToSpain, Line 7 Line 7: Incorrect syntax near '.'.
What would be the best practice to follow to keep track of MS SQLserver changes... Stroed procs, tables, views, triggers, indexes, DTSand also jobs ect....I am not quite sure how Source safe works with sql server. Any otherway to do this... Even if its manual work, its okey.. I wouldappreciate if any of the DBA's let me know how they are facing thisissue....Thanks in advance...

I'm trying to get a database from SQL2005 to SQL2000. I already recreated the database in SQL2005 and I'm just trying to get some data from just a few tables.
It doesn't appear the DTS or any export functionality is available in my version of SQL Express 2005...so how do I do this. I've tried installing everything I can find.
I've also tried BCP but I keep getting these errors:
SQLState = 08001, NativeError = 53 Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server [53]. SQLState = HYT00, NativeError = 0 Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Login timeout expired SQLState = 08001, NativeError = 53 Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.
This is a LOCAL database and I have tried -T for trusted, I have also tried a username and password combination. The database is set to Allow Remote connections. Nothing is working.
There are two sql servers with the same database in different locations with replication running on them. Users in the two locations insert or update date on there own database through an ms access application . The data are replicated to both servers. Someone wanted a copy of the database and they dropped replication, but users continue to modify and add data on both servers and so replication could not be back again without merging the two databases as one again and restarting replication. My job was to merge the databases and make replication work and after allot of work all is fine. I copy and attached the database on my pc that I set up as a server and did the job. Then I went back on both servers that had replication running before I attached the database and set the subscriber and publisher and all was fine to that point. The database has six groups with permissions on them and many database users on each location. Both the groups and the users show on the database. I create a new login and user and I add him to the groups to get the permissions. Now back on a user pc I login with the new user name run the ms access application and try to add some new records, but I get errors that I cannot insert null values to two of the fields in several tables in the database. This was not happening before and the database was recording the values in those fields namely the user name and the date that the new record was created. After some reading I found out that I might need to set the groups and permissions on the views and tables from the beging but Im not an expert. Any ideas? Thanks allot George

I am trying to move a database which I wrote in SQL Server 2005 to a SQL Server 2000 database. I'm not sure the best way to do this....... Can anyone enlighten me?.....
I am working on a project that was written in Visual Studio 2003 using asp.net and C#. The project accesses a SQL Server 2000 database. I need to test the application. What I want to do is to copy the database over to a test server. The problem is that the test server only has SQL Server 2005 on it. Would it be a problem if I backed up the database using SQL Server 2000 and then recreated it on the server as a SQL server 2005 project? Would my source code accept the new database even though it would now be in sql server 2005?
Hi, I am having a problem connecting my .net applications from the application server to the database server. When I run the application from my windows xp (sp2) box it works fine. When I try to connect via SQL Management Studio to the database server from the application server I get the same error. Here is the error: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) Here is the Environment: App Server: Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition Inside Company's Firewall/ Network Database Server: Windows Server 2000 Advanced Edition SQL Server 2000 SP4 Remote Connections to the Server is checked Enable Protocols: Named Pipes & TCP/IP TCP/IP Port: 1402 (I don't know why it isn't the default of 1433) The db server is sitting out side the Company's firewall (don't ask me why). I can access it fine from inside the firewall on my XP box but not from windows server 2003. There is a web server outside the our network that also connects to the db server with no problem and that is running Windows Server 2003 Web Edition. I can ping the db server from the app server using the IP address. I tried using the IP address and the port 1402 in my connection string but that didn't work from any machine (XP and Server). I imagine the issue is somehow related to the company's firewall but why would it only block Windows Server 2003 and not XP? What do I tell the network admin to change? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks, Oran
When I try to migrate a database on a SQL Server 2000 server to a SQL Server 2005 server with the Copy Database Wizard of the SQL Server Management Studio, I'm confronted with the following problem;
Performing operation...
- Add log for package (Success) - Add task for transferring database objects (Success) - Create package (Success) - Start SQL Server Agent Job (Success) - Execute SQL Server Agent Job (Error) Messages * The job failed. Check the event log on the destination server for details. (Copy Database Wizard)
When I take a look at 'Event viewer' on the SQL 2005 server, the following error is displayed;
InnerException-->An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
I already enabled the MSSQLSERVER network configuration protocols (TCP/IP and Named Pipes ).
