Need To Select From ASPNETDB And Other Database In One Query
Feb 3, 2007
Hello everyone,
I have a problem with making such a query. I have two databases: DB1 and ASPNETDB - default asp database. I get data from DB1.Books and want to join (INNER JOIN) UserID with UserName from ASPNETDB.Users.
The ponint is that I don't know how to access ASPNETDB in the query. I use SQLDataSource control in which I specified the ConnectionString pointing to DB1 database on my local SQL Server 2005 Express.
On the other hand, if I use a ConnectionString pointing to ASPNETDB as a database dynamically attached from file (~/App_Data/ASPNETDB.MDF), I gain access to the Users table but I get an error message when I try to access DB1.dbo.Books...
I 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?
Hi there readers of this post, Do you know how to transfer the database (ASPNETDB.mdf) tables made by the ASP.NET admin tool into another database? I want to run everything from 1 database. regards Sat
Hello everybody, I am working with SqlExpress and MSSQL Server Management Studio Express and do not manage to open the aspnetDB .mdf database in which I am storing all data about my users.I woulds like to open it and to be able to request it in order to check some strange things.Actually, I'm experiencing an isssue with that database since the request just below gives me two results for only one user: SELECT Member.Password, Member.PasswordAnswer FROM aspnet_MemberShip Member, aspnet_Users Users WHERE Member.UserId=Users.UserId AND Users.UserName='Admin' Using this request returns me a user whom password is clear and an identical user whom password is hashed whereas I set PasswordFormat="Clear" in my Web.ConfigCould you explain me how I may proceed please? Thanx for your help
Hello. I have been developing a small site that has two backend SQL Server databases. One for my application data and one for the ASPNETDB database that is created by the ASP .NET Configuration utility. Is it possible to configure the ASP .NET Configuration tool to use my custom database instead of creating a second database called ASPNETDB? Thanks in advance. Kev
Hi I want to set up my web app to use a web parts personalization, I notice that a default database named aspnetdb is made, I also made one in my sql server using the aspnet_regsql.exe to make it. Now what I need to find out is how to make my app point to the database in the sql server instead of making that default one.
When I created my website in Visual Studio 2008, I ended up with two databases. The one I created (Speedway.mdf), then VS2008 added a new one (aspnetdb) when I added membership data (roles, users..etc). Since the host I'm using charges for each database, I just want to move all my membership information into Speedway.mdf. I exported the tables from aspnetdb.mdf to Speedway.mdf, but now I don't know how to tell the site to look at Speedway.mdf to find the membership info?
This question has been asked before, with vague responses I'm using Visual Web Developer 2005 Express, SQL Server 2005 Express and SQL Server Management Studio Express. When I create an application with Login controls, VWD automaticlly creates a ASPENTDB.MDF security database. I also create my own database for my application e.g. abc.mdf. In other words, I have two databases. However, my hosting company supports only one database. What do I (we) do? I have seen articles on: aspnet_regsql . Does this create a new database with all the security features of ASPNETDB.MDF built into my new database i.e. abc.mdf? (A) If yes, how do you run it with SQL Server Managment Studio Express? It sounds silly, but I need instructions here please ... Also, do you run this against abc.mdf or do you use it create abc.mdf? (B) If not, how do you achieve a single database scenario? I'm sure this is a very common deployment question, which is very confusing for most of us hobbyists that want to deploy their web applications
I have tried to find all the threads related to this topic. At this point I would like to find out what the best practices are for doing this. I plan to use Membership, Roles, and the login controls to handle my authentication and permissions issues. I want to use the same database for my application data as for Application Services, using a standard SQL Server. So far, the easiest way to set this up that I can think of is to:1. Use aspnet_regsql.exe to create the Application Services Database schema2. Edit the "LocalSqlServer" entry in <connectionStrings> to point to the above database3. Add the tables, views, stored procedures, etc., that I need for my application into the database created in step 1Is there any more configuration I need to do to get Membership and Roles working? When I did the Walkthrough, step 2 seemed to be the only requirement for getting Membership and Roles to work.Will I run into any trouble using LocalSqlServer for my application data updates?I would be interested in any other approaches to setting up a combined database, including opinions why and why not to do it.
Hi,I've a little problem. When I connect my local server by this connection string: Data Source=NB126SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=TVRM;Integrated Security=True I get content of ASPNETDB.MDF (placed in App_Data directory) instead content of my own database named TVRM. Please help...
Hi Eevryone: I seem to have corrupted my ASP.net Web Site Administration Tool some how. It worked fine a few days ago, but reloaded SQL Server 2005 Express Edition W Adv Services SP1 yesterday I can not get past the "Unable to connect to SQL Server database" error. I have run the aspnetdb.exe and created both a aspnetdb.mdf and loaded the tables to into a existing mdf. I have checked all the permissions. So any ideas on what I am doing wrong, or can you point me to some documentation on the 'AspNetSqlProvider'
Hi everyone, i have already created posts about this problem and im aware theres millions of replys, but i still cant get this to work and its driving me mad. The posts i have seen i dont understand? Im using the standard ASPNETDB Database, i have never opened up SQL Server Management studio, although i do have the express edition. i have tried everything and i am totally stumped as to what to do. Heres my web.config. It works in VWD 2005 Express, but not in WWWROOT or on webserver? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE Can someone help me!!!!!!!!!

I don't know whether this question belong here, but.... In the past I had many customers using the same website each with their own domain name and their own database. To accomplish that, I used MS Access and placed each customers database in separate directories. I steered the customer to the correct directory using their domain name. I am now trying to accomplish the same thing using aspnetdb.mdf and other .mdf database files. I am using the aspnetdb.mdf database for membership, etc. I want the aspnetdb.mdf database file to be unique for each customer. Does anyone know how to accomplish what I was doing with MS Access using aspnetdb.mdf? Is there any way to have multiple web.config files each of which would be dedicated to a particular customer?
I installed ASPNETDB with the standard script, but then learned it was possible to integrate this membership db into my existing db (haven't done this yet, but will tomorrow then I'll delete the auto-created ASPNETDB for clarity).That's Great. Now.....I'm not sure the best way to tie this information into with my existing data. I assume I should use the UserID field but how should I do it? Should I update my existing customers table with a copy of the UserID value upon creation? If so, how do I do that? I can create the relations between whichever tables, but I am curious as to your recommended method.Thanks for your help.jb
Hi, Iam facing problems to connect to the new database after detach the aspnetdb.Simply the new database disappear (In SQL 2005 Management studio express the database contents disappear ! and I get an error when try to open it).If I try to connectto aspnetdb again I get an error telling me it is used by another process.I don't understand what is going on could any one explain to me?
I have two, probably related, problems:I have a very simple site. It will be used on the local intranet only. I want to use the windows authentication so users do not have to log on. The aspnetdb has been created using the configuration tool. If I use Server Explorer in vs to work on the site on my local machine, I can open aspnetdb, look at its tables, etc. If I use Server Explorer in vs to work on the site on the server, aspnetdb will not open and gives this error message: ..."network path that is not supported for database files"...Other sites on the same server give the same message, but the sites work. I think this is because they can read the file but not write it; but that is a guess. We have tried everything; my head is ready to explode. We are using SQLServerExpress. It resides on the server's C drive (as does our data database). The web site, and hence the aspnetdb are on the F: drive of the same machine. Does SQLServerExpress treat the F: drive as a UNC drive? If so, are we in deep doo doo? I'm at a loss.As far as logging in: If I debug from vs, the login works beautifully both on my local machine and running from the server using vs. Login does not work when accessing the site from iexplorer. Mystified by that one, too. I tried to implement profiles and they crash, too; that led me to consider a write problem.Don't know what to do; any help is appreciated.
Hi, I am using express database and tools. I have an aspnetdb express database because I am using the login controls, personalisation...Can I use this database for my private tables also? Or do I need a separate express database for my private tables? Will using aspnetdb database, which contains special asp.net tables, for my private website tables create any kinds of problems in using my website? I want to use a single express database for my website, not two different express databases. Regards, Sandy
I installed netframework 2.0 Visual Web developer and MSSQL 2005 express edition with SQL Server management express.I have got this configuration: 2*256 mb ram Intel Pentium 3.2Ghz Windows XP HUN SP2 latest version.server name: localhostSQLEXPRESSAuthentication: Windows AuthenticationI run aspnet_regsql.exe and the setup wizard created aspnetdb see here, Microsoft sql server management studio can see the database:But! When I run to the asp.net web application administration tool in Provider Configuration and chooseAspNetSqlProvider only 1then I click Select a single provider for all site management data link -> then testThe Tool write this:Could not establish a connection to the database. If you have not yet created the SQL Server database, exit the Web Site Administration tool, use the aspnet_regsql command-line utility to create and configure the database, and then return to this tool to set the provider.

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.

For MS Press Book, ADO.NET 2.0 Step by Step, 2005 Edition by Rebecco Riordan, installing the code samples created a ConfigDB.exe file under SampleDBs folder. Running this exe file created a AdoStepByStep into the Database folder in SQL Server 2005 Express.
However, for ASP.NET 2.0 Step by Step, 2005 Edition, by George Shepherd, there is no Config.exe to install the ASPNETDB SQL Server 2005 Express database. I right clicked the Database folder to 'Attach' the database. But, the database just showed a 'c: ASPNETDB.MDF filfe path as a name. Further, running the aspx files in Chapters 7 and 12 showed a 'Timeout Expired' error msg, indicating something wrong with accessing the SQL Server database.
How can I run the aspx files in Chapters 7 and 12? How can I install the ASPNETDB?
Hi there, I have installed Sql server 2005 developer on my machine which already has a Sql server 2000 installed on. Now i am trying to query the Sqlserver 2005 data(Ex: from Person.Address located in AdventureWorks database) in Sqlserver 2000 query analyzer: When i try as Select * from Address it said invalid object. But when i explored AdventureWorks database in the Management studio i see it as Person.Address!!! i don't understand what is a Person in Person.Address??? any clues on this? So as a test when i ran select * from Person.Address it did work and i saw the results in query analyzer. Can any one help me understand about this confusion? Thanks-L
Is there a way I can write a query to dynamically select a database table. That is, instead of having a variable for a certain column like customerId which would be €ścustomerID = @customerID€? I want to use the variable to select the table. I assume I may have to use a stored procedure but I am unclear as to how this would be coded.
I want to make SQLTransaction as global and use it checking the State. But then where there are Only Select queries are going to fire, it will open transaction.
So, Does it locks database/tables when Only Select query comes in SQLTransaction.
If you have another successful way of doing this, Please suggest.
I just spent the better par of 3 days creating a prototype in ASP.Net 2.0 and SQL Server Express only to discover that nobody from outside can see it... ERROR with impersonation=true User does not have permission to perform this action. ERROR with impersonation=false Unable to open the physical file "c:inetpubwwwroot------.mdf". Operating system error 5: "5(Access is denied.)".An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file c:inetpubwwwroot-----.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share. What makes this so difficult? What am I missing?
I have setup a Database Audit Specification as follows:
Audit Action Type: SELECT | Object Class: DATABASE | Object Name: SHOPDB | Principal Name: public
Now, when I perform a SELECT query with a bound parameter such as:
SELECT * FROM myTable WHERE name='queryname'
What I see through the Audit Logs is something like:
SELECT * FROM myTable WHERE name='@1'
I understand that it is by design that we cannot see these parameters throught Database Level Auditing. I would like to know whether it is possible to see these parameters by any other means using
(1) SQL Server Enterprise Edition, (2) SQL Server Standard Edition, or (3) by an external tool.
Not sure if this is possible, but maybe. I have a table that contains a bunch of logs. I'm doing something like SELECT * FROM LOGS. The primary key in this table is LogID. I have another table that contains error messages. Each LogID could have multiple error messages associated with it. To get the error messages. When I perform my first select query listed above, I would like one of the columns to be populated with ALL the error messages for that particular LogID (SELECT * FROM ERRORS WHERE LogID = MyLogID). Any thoughts as to how I could accomplish such a daring feat?
Hi, I just installed Visual web developper 2008 express with all options including SQL srvr express 2005!
This is from default iso image on the official website.
I create my first project and when I want to do ASP.NET configuration from web site menu, i got this error:
"Cannot open database "aspnetdb" requested by the login. The login failed."
I am just trying to learn here so i even did not create any dB or something, it is 1st time I run configuration to add security roles and users for testing!
I also un-installed all and re-installed, still the same...
Hi, not exactly too sure if this can be done but I have a need to run a query which will return a list of values from 1 column. Then I need to iterate this list to produce the resultset for return. This is implemented as a stored procedure
declare @OwnerIdent varchar(7) set @OwnerIdent='A12345B'
SELECT table1.val1 FROM table1 INNER JOIN table2 ON table1. Ident = table2.Ident WHERE table2.Ident = @OwnerIdent
'Now for each result of the above I need to run the below query
SELECT Clients.Name , Clients.Address1 , Clients.BPhone, Clients.email FROM Clients INNER JOIN Growers ON Clients.ClientKey = Growers.ClientKey WHERE Growers.PIN = @newpin)
When I run simple select against my view in Query Analyzer, I get result set in one sort order. The sort order differs, when I BCP the same view. Using third technique i.e. Select Into, I have observed the sort order is again different in the resulting table. My question is what is the difference in mechanisim of query analyzer, bcp, and select into. Thanks

Server: Msg 242, Level 16, State 3, Line 1 The conversion of a char data type to a datetime data type resulted in an out-of-range datetime value.
the studentstartdate field is set as datetime 8 and the date looks like this in the table 03/12/2004 03:12:15
