I have created my sqlexpress database in Visual Studio 2005. When i go to SQL Server Management Studio Express I cannot open my database. It is not listed automatically and I get an error 'There is no editor for 'database name' Make sure the application for file type (.mdf) if installed.'
Any help or suggestions will be appreciated.
Thanks
I've just started with a company that had a web developer in to set up their site. She set it up with Coldfusion and MS SQL Server, uploaded the whole thing to their provider, then disappeared. Then the whole thing got dumped in my lap, and I'm pretty new to both SQL Server and Coldfusion.
My first question is, how can I access the SQL Server database online? It's somewhere on the web host's site, and I have the name of it and the password, but I have no clue how I'm supposed to get a look at the thing. Is there a file I should be able to find? Can anyone provide a clue?
Thanks!

I can't start SQLEXPRESS.
The SQL ERRORLOG shows: Error is 3414, Severity 21, State 2 and says: "An error occurred during recovery, preventing the database 'model' (database ID 3) from restarting." Just prior to this, I get a warning: "did not see LP_CKPT_END".
Any thoughts why this might be and how I can fix this?

Hi All,
I have created an installation application which will install the application with SQL Express and .NET Framework 2.0.
If i install this application in a Fresh system(i.e which is not having SQL Express), it is installing the application with new database instance successfully.
But if i try to install the same in a system which is already having SQL Express, throwing "Object reference exception" because it is not able to create the new database instance.
Can anybody help me out .

Hello,
I have a fresh install of sqlExpress and Management Studio Express on my test server. I want to restore my master database from backup.
From the command prompt I set the Sqlservr -s SQLEXPRESS -m
Then I opened another comand prompt and ran my SQLCMD script to restore the Master Database.
here is the sql script:
RESTORE DATABASE [Master] FROM DISK = N'E:COPLEYNEWSDATABASEBACKUPMaster.bak' WITH FILE = 1, MOVE N'mastlog' TO N'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDATAMaster_1.ldf', NOUNLOAD, STATS = 10
GO
I recieve the following error.
Msg 3154, Level 16, State 4, Server COPLEYNEWSSQLEXPRESS, Line 1
The backup set holds a backup of a database other than the existing 'Master' dat
abase.
Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Server COPLEYNEWSSQLEXPRESS, Line 1

Working on trying to support mutliple backend db's against a custom VB6 app. Right now the db is SqlExpress. It's relatively uncomplicated and I just want to move table structures and data over. Using the MySql Migration tool, I am able to authenticate as SA to a server-based instance of SqlExpress, however, only the MS-supplied databases appear as available databases; my databases don't appear. Can't seem to authenticate at all to any local instance of the database, either. Anyone done any successful migrations to MySql through their migration tool?

I have installed SQLExpress, but when I run the batch file I get the following:

Hi again... I guess this is yet another newbie question (Sorry if its been asked before!)
If I have an IP address for an external SQL DB with valid User & Pass... Can I connect to it using SQLExpress on my machine??
If so can anyone point me towards how to do it, or run through it below (In easy steps as I'm dumb )
I have sqlexpress 2005 on my local machine - but my hoster has sql 2000 - so i used the DB publishing wizard to create the script and sent it over to them - they are now saying that they need a .bak file in 2000 to host my database - is this a bunch of horse hockey or not?
if this is legit - any ideas on how I can create a .bak 2000 sql from sqlexpress 2005?
many thanks
Hello everyone. i am using vwd 2005 express edition along with sqlexpress 2005. if i need to use database in my project. i click on database explorer and create a new table from the existing database. it is working very fine. But my problem is when ever i copy the project in my pen driveand try to use in another computer, the database doesnot gets copied when i copy my project folder. well i also tried to copy the tables from the database explorer but it does not happen.i tried to locate where does the database get stored in my computer.but i cant find where it resides..and even if i find which file to copy?i think there is log file and database file in some cases. can some body clarify me this scenario here.just tell me where can i find my database i m using in my project,so that i can copy it . and also whats the use of creating .mdf file in the project.?is this the better way of using database rather than creating using database explorer?confused?? thanks.jack..
View 10 Replies View RelatedThis is what I sometimes want:
I have installed on a localmachine sqlexpress. Also my application is installed on the local machine.
But for the night-backup of the database I want to put the database on the company server.
Let's say the database is on: X:datamydatabase.mdf
Why cant't I attach this database with the manager of sqlexpress
Second:
I have installed on local machine sqlexpress AND also the database
Why can't I backup the file to the server like:
BACKUP DATABASE [mydatabase] to DISK=x:datamydatabase.bak WITH FORMAT
It looks I can only backup to the localmachine.
thanks a lot

I installed VS2005 on my laptop at the office and of course, got the default instance of SQLEXPRESS. When I take my laptop home and log in (I use my NETWORKlogin login everywhere), I can't authenticate to use the database -- it doesn't like my login unless I'm physically at my office.
So, thinking I'm clever, I changed my SQLEXPRESS instance to use 'SQL Server and Windows Authentication mode' and tried to use the 'sa' login in my connection string. Login failed for 'sa' and since I had never set a password (yes, I tried using a blank) I executed the following query on my db:
exec sp_password @new='WHATEVERPASSWORD', @loginame = 'sa'
The query works (?) but it my connection string doesn't and I'm still unable to use the management tool when not on the original network.
So, I thought I'd add a new, super secret special user, but alas, that has completely escaped me. That frightens me a bit because I'd really like to be able to deploy my database to my web host and trust the my connection strings will work.
So, here are my questions:
1. Can I set up my instance so that I don't have to be on the network on which I installed it in order for it to recognize me (since it's self contained on my machine)? If so, how?
2. How do I create new SQL users?
3. Has the connection string changed significantly, and consequently, am I missing something fundamental in my attempts to connect? If someone could toss out a working SQL Server Express 2005 connection string that doesn't use Windows authentication, that would be really appreciated.
Here's some info from my box, if it helps.

Thanks for any help out there.
Q1: When I try to move a database (.mdf and .ldf file), developed with SQLEXPRESS on Win/XP to my SBS2003 server running with SQL SERVER 2005, I cannot attach the database on the server. Backup/Restore fails as well.
"Could not find row in in sysindexes for database ID=12...."
Could not open new database 'Test'. CREATE DATABASE is aborted (error 602).
I tried to copy an ad hoc db with only one table from the client to the server, same error. Similar procedure withs MSDE and SQL 2000 worked flawlessly. It seems there is something wrong with my SQLEXPRESS setup.
Anybody who can advice?
Q2. on the client with SQL EXPRESS, I switched on in the surface area configuration TCP and pipes; however SQL SERVER Management Studio on the server cannot connect te SQLEXPRESS engine on the client machine. Is this normal?
However from the client, SQL EXPRESS Management Studio can connect to the SQL SERVER 2005 engine.on the server.

I tried to research on the internet and i got a solution on changing the permissions for this database to enable user SystemName/ASPNET, but iam not able to access this ASPNETDB.MDF from SqlServer and if i go to server explorer in vs2005, i dint know where to chage the permissions.
Can anyone help me on this.
Thanks a lot
Hello! I like to reset my database (all tables in the database) to
default starting index values. I tried to use the command "TRUNCATE
TABLE" but it does't work becuase of the referenced foreign keys. I get
always the error message: Cannot truncate table 'T_MyTable' because it
is being referenced by a FOREIGN KEY constraint.
You know a solution for that problem?
Perhaps save all constraints, then delete them, truncate the tables and
then create the old constraints again.But how can I save all
constraints?
Thanks to help me in this urgent problem! FOX
i am using sql2005, the data inserted into the database by using createuserwizrd. after that anyone give me this error
anyone ? any thought? thanks please
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: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. SQLExpress database file auto-creation error:
The connection string specifies a local Sql Server Express instance using a database location within the applications App_Data directory. The provider attempted to automatically create the application services database because the provider determined that the database does not exist. The following configuration requirements are necessary to successfully check for existence of the application services database and automatically create the application services database:
If the applications App_Data directory does not already exist, the web server account must have read and write access to the applications directory. This is necessary because the web server account will automatically create the App_Data directory if it does not already exist.
If the applications App_Data directory already exists, the web server account only requires read and write access to the applications App_Data directory. This is necessary because the web server account will attempt to verify that the Sql Server Express database already exists within the applications App_Data directory. Revoking read access on the App_Data directory from the web server account will prevent the provider from correctly determining if the Sql Server Express database already exists. This will cause an error when the provider attempts to create a duplicate of an already existing database. Write access is required because the web server accounts credentials are used when creating the new database.
Sql Server Express must be installed on the machine.
The process identity for the web server account must have a local user profile. See the readme document for details on how to create a local user profile for both machine and domain accounts.
is there a way using sqlexpress to review the most recent set of sql commandssubmitted to a database?I remember something about setting up logging in sql server 2000, but don'tsee much about this on google or the news group for 2005.thanksJeff Kish

MY host told me that they do not support sqlexpress and to change it MySql 2005 or something. im using hostmysite.com builder plan.
I've written a stored procedure that copies records from tables in one database to the same tables in another database. Here is a snippet for a single table:
delete from washmaster_mirror.dbo.batches
DBCC CHECKIDENT (washmaster_mirror.dbo.batches', RESEED, 0)
alter table washmaster_mirror.dbo.batches disable trigger tr_BATCHES_INSERT
alter table washmaster_mirror.dbo.batches disable trigger tr_BATCHES_UPDATE
insert into washmaster_mirror.dbo.batches(processorid,batchnum,processdate,transcount,batchamount,dtmCreate,dtmUpdate,keypreserve)
(select processorid,batchnum,processdate,transcount,batchamount,dtmCreate,dtmUpdate,[ID]
from washmaster.dbo.batches)
alter table washmaster_mirror.dbo.batches enable trigger tr_BATCHES_INSERT
alter table washmaster_mirror.dbo.batches enable trigger tr_BATCHES_UPDATE
This kind of block is repeated in the same stored procedure for each table. There are 20 tables populated this way. The idea is to copy records from the working (washmaster) database to a mirror (washmaster_mirror) database then back up the mirror database so I can avoid having down time during the back up process (due to database locking).
The problem I have is that the above stored procedure sometimes causes the SQLEXPRESS service to stop, thus the Sql Express connection to break. I've checked the error logs and the event log (I'm running on Windows Vista) and nothing sheds light on the issue. When I originally coded the stored procedure I surrounded it by a TRY - CATCH block, which forced it to lose the connection every time. When I eliminated the TRY - CATCH block the broken connection issue became rare, but still occurs occasionally. Any ideas why this might be occuring or what I can do to solve it?
Thanks,
SJonesy
I am trying to install SQL Express, but are getting a failure. The SQLSetUp_xxxx_SQL.log contains the following information? Who can help?

I'm writing a Windows application (Visual Studio 2005, c#) utilizing a local SQLExpress database. It consists of about 10 tables and I've created about 15 Stored Procedures to address various functions... I can run the update Stored Procedures interactively within the designer and the data tables update as designed. However, if I run the update Stored Procedures from within my windows application is where they fail. I get no error messages, if I return a rowcount variable from the Stored Procedure it tells me that one row was updated (SELECT @RtnVal == @@rowcount)... but when I open the subject table in the designer, there is no new data.
My update queries address both insert and update functions, so if it is new row of data, it performs the insert action, otherwise it updates an existing row.
I can query the data using my stored procedures to load default values into my windows form, I can search and find client records to display in the form... I just can't update records. I'm of the opinion that it is a rights issue, but I can't find any resources that address user access accounts with SQLExpress and windows apps. The current connection string for my local database is set for Integrated Security = true; User Instance = true
I've tried two approaches... one utilizes my stored procedure....
bool bSave;
SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(KadaDesk.Properties.Settings.Default.dbKadaConnectionString.ToString());
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand("SavAuthTesterData", conn);
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
cmd.Parameters.Add("@CtrId", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 20).Value = TestCenterID.ToString();
cmd.Parameters.Add("@AT_Id", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 15).Value = GnuAuthTesterId.ToString();
cmd.Parameters.Add("@AT_Name", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 50).Value = GnuAuthTesterName.ToString();
cmd.Parameters.Add("@AT_Pwd", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 15).Value = GnuAuthTesterPwd.ToString();
cmd.Parameters.Add("@Maint", SqlDbType.NChar, 1).Value = GnuAuthTesterStatus.ToString();
cmd.Parameters.Add("@ModBy", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 15).Value = sAuthTester.ToString();
try
{
conn.Open();
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
bSave = true;
}
Then I tried a direct insert...
SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(KadaDesk.Properties.Settings.Default.dbKadaConnectionString.ToString());
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand();
SqlTransaction myTrans;
conn.Open();
cmd.Connection = conn;
myTrans = conn.BeginTransaction();
cmd.Transaction = myTrans;
string disDte = DateTime.Now.ToShortDateString();
try
{
string sCmdText = "INSERT INTO Tester (CenterId, AuthTesterId, AuthTesterName, AuthTesterPwd, "
+ "CreateDte, Maint, ModBy) "
+ "VALUES ('" + TestCenterID.ToString() + "','"
+ GnuAuthTesterId.ToString() + "','"
+ GnuAuthTesterName.ToString() + "','"
+ GnuAuthTesterPwd.ToString() + "','"
+ disDte.ToString() + "','"
+ GnuAuthTesterStatus.ToString() + "','"
+ sAuthTester.ToString() + "')";
cmd.CommandText = sCmdText;
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
myTrans.Commit();
bSave = true;
}
Both fail... which points to the only common point in both approaches, the connection string and user rights... but I can't find any place to address user accounts or configurations for windows apps.
Thanks for whatever help you can offer...
Jim-
Hi All,I've been struggling with this for hours...Could someone please advise me on how to convert my current File based SQL Server Express website to a Server based SQL Express one.Particularly interested in what I need to do in the SQL Express management tool, changes I need to make the projecvt itself and changes needed to get IIS to understand things have been changed.Thanks,Martin.
