New Sql Server Application Without Indices?
Nov 22, 1998
Recently, I assumed responsibility for a SQL Server 6.5 application( I am an Oracle DBA).
This application is being purchased from a vendor. It is replacing an Oracle application.
I did not make the decision for accepting this vendor's application
Yesterday, I had to call the vendor as I had a question. It turns out that the application
--with about 70 tables -- will not have any indices, only primary keys that will be utilized
through Powerbuilder. There will be no foreign keys as all such constraints are
handled through PB code.
I have dealt with many different applications over the years and under different platforms
but I have never encountered an application where there are no indices. I have seen
application with way too many and even some with too few. Never an application
without any.
Has any one ever worked with, or dealt with, an application with no indicies? Is it
practical to attempt to use native PB code to replace indicies? If yes, was the application
running efficiently? Was everything through table scans? Any advise on how to deal with this vendor?
Right now there are no procedures or function -- just native sql code on the theory everything is faster
and more efficient? May be?
Thanks for any information.

I'm looking for a quick script that someone has already written to update statistics (not to rebuild or re-organise) on specific indices in specific databases - I guess loop though a table comprising of a list of databases and the indices.
I know Ola has one but I'm not look for something that is that complicated. If I cannot find one I'm going to have to write one myself - I want to try and avoid re-inventing the wheel as tomorrow I have to do this work and it's about 7K plus indices in about 10+ databases.

Hi,
I thought I'd post this question again to see if I get a response this time. I am trying to figure out how to write a sp to drop all of a given tables indices. I have looked at the sp_helpindex text and see where the index name, index ID, table ID etc. is determined...no problem there. What I am having difficulty with is the actual DROP INDEX statement 'cause somehow I need to concatenate the table name to the index name and have the statement work...something like DROP INDEX @tablename + '.' + @indexname (which I can't get to work...sorry about my lack of SQL Srvr knowledge!). I was hoping someone might know if this can be done and how to do it.
Any help, even if it is to tell me this can't be done, would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks in Advance....

I have created a new filegroup and would like to move my indices there. Do I need to create a file for each index or can I just specify the filegroup in Enterprise Manager?
Thanks!

Hello,I am starting to examine using SQLServer instead of Oracle. I wentthrough the SQLServer import utility to copy tables from Oracle intoSQLServer. I then checked the size of the database.I then started to specify indices for the tables. I did not see thedatabase file size grow all that much. I kept on using the shrinkcommand to make sure that wasted space was removed. I even made surethat minimal free space was allowed.I was rather expecting (from experience with Oracle) that there wouldbe a large growth in the database when addind indices. So what did Imiss? Are the indices stored elsewhere and I missed them? DoesSQLServer handle indices differently so they dont' bloat the databasesize?The size of our data in SQLServer is a key factor in whether we movefrom Oracle, so I need to under how indices effect storage size.Thanks for any help.Bart TorbertJoin Bytes!

Hi,
Apologies if this has been asked before, i've done a search but can't find a definitive answer.
I've created a table in an SQLExpress 2005 db using Server Managment Studio Express.
My intention is to use GUID fields as surrogate PK's. I therefore wanted to add a additional index to prevent duplicate records being added to the table. Not having used SQLServer before could someone confirm or deny that this is the correct way to do this. The PK field [EPISODEID{unique identifier}] is set as a non-clustered index. And i've created a second clustered index using the two fields that create a unique record. I've added a screen shot if that is any help.
Thanks
Chris

We have a database we are replicating to about 8 SQL Express subscribers from a SQL 2012 SP2 publisher. The size of the database grew too large for the 10GB license limit for SQL Express and now replication refuses to replicate any of our deletions on the publisher to reduce the size of the database. I've come up with a few options below.
1) Drop one of the larger table indices on the subscriber database to get below the size restriction. Permit the replication to replicate the deleted records and then rebuild the index. (I'm not sure how important an index is to this table. Is it merely performance related?)
2) "Upsize" SQL Express to SQL Standard on the affected boxes. Allow the deletes to replicate. Backup the database, downgrade to SQL Express and restore the database back to SQL a new SQL express instance. This would involve a lot of work on each box. I'd like to avoid it if possible.

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

I don't know why my application on the internet try to access the SQL Server 2005, when the host still having the 2000 edition. I put the following connection string:
Data Source=##DBSERVER##;Initial Catalog=##DBNAME##;User ID=##DBUSER##;Password=##DBPASSWORD##;
Isn’t everything fine with that? I created the table by host but dosen’t work. I’m wondering if can I conect straight with Data Base, without register in the server, like with mdb?
This is the error that I’m getting.
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)

Hi,
I am developing a windows application that needs to communicate with a remote SQL server 2005 database. Server allows remote connections and MSDTC service also running. Do I need to run MSDTC service on the client machine where I use desktop application ? any ideas ? It's throwing some error like
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.
But my SQL Server allows remote connection, and I am able to do a select statement.
But when I insert/update anything, it's throwing this error. I guess some problem with MSDCT. Anybody have any idea ?

I have several general questions about this but I thought I would describe what I am doing first. My senior project team is developing a web application that will wind up using SQL Server for the database. We are writing it in ASP.net and developing the database on SQL Server Express. My job is to develop and deploy the database. I have an ERD designed and am getting ready to start coding the tables, constraints and stored proceedures but am unsure of a couple of things.
1) How do I create a new schema?
2) I can see how to create tables in the GUI but what I am trying to do is create scripts that can be used to create the tables and objects on the actual server that our client will be using. How do I create scripts in 2005 Express? Do I just go click on the new query button?
3) Are scripts that work for Express going to have any problem executing on SQL Server?

I'm sorry to bother you.
Now I'm trying to run PHP web application on x64 2003 Server with Microsoft SQL Server 2005. The version of PHP is 5.2.3. and the web application should be run as 64bit applications. Since there seems no way to use php_mssql.dll on the environment, I'm trying to use SQL Server 2005 Driver for PHP but when PHP loads php_sqlsrv.dll, an error has occurd and there's a following message in an error log...
PHP Warning: PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library 'c:phpextphp_sqlsrv.dll' - %1 is not a valid Win32 application
From this message, I thought the distributed libraries for Windows would be for a Win32 environment but there seemed no information that says the libraries run on Win32 environment only.
I really appriciate if you help me.
Thank you.

Hi Everybody,
I have made one simple application in asp.net 2.0 using VS 2005. I got following error
Server Error in '/[applicationname]' Application. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------
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)
- When i got on my local machine i solved it by deleting sqlexpress directory from user's account and it was due to that I have installed VS 2005 on machine and by default it installs sql express with it.
- But I could not solved this error on my Development Server wherein there is no VS 2005. Only .Net framework 2.0 & 1.1 are there. My all other applications are running well.
So if any one have idea regarding the solution for this error then please reply me soon. It is very urgent.
Thanks to all of you.
Regards, Hardik B.

Hi,If an application written in ASP.Net that uses SQL Server 2000 can have certain features that will not work on SQL Server 2005?There is an application written in ASP.Net with SQL Server 2000 which I need to convert to SQL Server 2005 but the original developer says it uses certain SQL Server 2000 specific features and won't work directly on SQL Server 2005 without modifying code.

I have just upload my site to a which is going to be host the site, the thing is the site runs great on my PC. But when i login or do a search i get an error " Server Error in '/' Application" i know its something to do with the Web config as i read something on here about it but i cant find that post now.
Site URl http://www.team-nat.co.uk
Try the login or click on the stolen marker link and you will see the error im getting.
This is my web config. <configuration xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/.NetConfiguration/v2.0">

I know its something to do with the connectionStrings as its pointing to my PC and not at where it should be at the server its running on but i have spent the last 3 hours editing the web config but it does not matter what i do i cant get it to work.
What am i missing here?

Hello everyone,I am currently developing a web application that retrieves and updates contact information in a database. I am coding the application with VB.Net and ASP.Net with a little bit of javascript. It is accessing a SQL Server Database.Everything is working fine when I run the web application from within the VS.Net environment. However after publishing the website to our local Intranet (where the app will be stored) I get the following error:Server Error in '/ollodev1/RIC' Application.

Hello all, We have a SQL database that uses a MS Access projectfront-end, which I am now creating an ASP.Net application for (And am completely new to so may be missing some foundation concepts). With the Access project I added Active Directory groups to the database to use for permissions, logins, etc. For the ASP app I have it set to use Forms authentication with Active Directory (ActiveDirectoryMembershipProvider). I can login to the app with the AD usernames/passwords but the connection from ASP.Net to SQL is using the ASP User. Is there a way to provide the authentication from the ActiveDirectoryMembership through to the SQL server, so the user: bobuser would be authenticated to SQL instead of ASPNETUSER?Or do I need to have the ASP.net app handle the permissions of which SP's a user can execute?Any help or suggestions are appreciated.Thanks,Jamie.

We migrated one database from SQL Server 6.5 to 7.0.
One of our applications connects to SQL Server using ODBC driver.
We created a new driver pointing on our new server,we can write and execute most of the queries that don't return a big RecordCount. As soon as we try to execute a query that should return more then 125-140 rows, the process fails returning an 'Interface Error' error message.
When we tested same queries pointing to the old (SQL Server 6.5) box, they worked fine.
We upgraded our ODBC ActiveX to a newer version, it allows us to get a few more rows only.
Do you know how can I fix this problem?
Thank you,
Anastasia.

Can someone tell me the easiest way to deploy a SQL/MSDE server database via an installation package.
I have developed an application using SQL server and VB .Net. I am now writing the deployment/setup.exe that will create the database in SQL server. I will have a seperate client installation that will install the program files for client computers
I thought it would be as simple as connecting to SQL server and then executing the script that I had created using Enterprise manager Generate scripts wizard. This script runs OK in the query analyzer but not using conn.execute script.
I know there must be a simple solution that everyone else knows. What is it? Your help is appreciated !

Hi,
I have recently transfered data from MS Access to MS SQL Server 2000 and created user interface in MS Access Project (ADP). Now I need to secure the data on server and want to access it ONLY through interface I created in MS Access. Every user has to log in the application (user id and password). Users may have the same access rights to the server (so maybe just one account or whatever I need for all of them). Can anyone advice me how to set it up? To access sql server from MS Access I am using ADO.
Thank you.
