I am having problem restoring a data i backup in master database for an application upgrade. I have this error message that ' i can only restore in single usermode for master database that i should change to single user mode'
View 3 Replies View RelatedIs it possible to put master database to single mode, if yes then whats the procedure. The reason behind the scenario is to restore master database from backup for which its strictly recommended to put the database in single mode. But I m not able to do so.

I am retrieving the current month and setting a variable accordingly.
Code:
DECLARE @currMonthNum INT
SET @currMonthNum = DATEPART(MM, GETDATE())
My challenge is that at a later point I want to use the @currMonthNum value to 'build' a date in the style yyyymmdd and the variable is only one digit for the months January to September (e.g.: 1 to 9). For the months January to September I need to pad the variable with an extra zero (e.g.: 01 to 09).
Here is my attempt to do this...!
Code:
IF @currMonthNum IN (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9)
SET @currMonthNum = '0' + CAST(@currMonthNum AS nvarchar)
Unfortunately this does not give the desired result of two digits, however ironically if I add a + '0' to the end I get 10 to 90! It is like the 0 at the front is simply being ignored.
I have also tried setting the @currMonthNum variable to an nvarchar type before performing the character addition as well attempting to use the CONCAT command (however I don't think that CONCAT can be used when setting a variable).
how to display a zero in front of the months that require it?
If i create same sp on master and myDB (sp_XYZ with dbo schema) and run exec sp_XYZ which sp_XYZ will execute ,the on master or myDB?
And second question:if i create sp_XYZ in master database only and run exec sp_XYZ from myDB would it execute?
I have similar question like Tim asked but from a different angle. I wish I pose my question here too anybody can help answer this.
I tried to use detach and attach method to do backup of the user database (not master, maybe we can do master too) on another server, but it looks the login and permission credential would not go together. I come to see different kind of message I tried to login as non-sa user after I attatch the database on different machine. I would be denied for SQL timeout. It looks like loginand user dose not exist in new server because I did not move master database too. But even if I recreate the login when I tried to associate user with login I will see a message saying user or role already exist in database. If I go back to check the user it did not show up on enterprize manager on that database.
So my question would be
1). how to move login and user together with user database.
2) do we have to move master database where the login infor. reside
3). if so how to move master database from one server to another when other server already have master database exist?
Hope somebody can answer this.

I'm taking a database(read-only) backup from one server and restoring it on other server. As soon as restore is done it is bringing database into single-user read-only mode.
why it is bringing the database into single user mode ?

I have a database that got set into single user mode. Unsure the reason or who might opened it. I am trying to reset it, but I am having problems. I am trying the following from http://www.kodyaz.com/articles/alter-single-user-multi-user-mode.aspx to kill the connections. So I can then switch it back to multiple users.
DECLARE @DatabaseName nvarchar(50)DECLARE @SPId intSET @DatabaseName = N'Works'DECLARE my_cursor CURSOR FAST_FORWARD FOR SELECT SPId FROM MASTER..SysProcesses WHERE DBId = DB_ID(@DatabaseName) AND SPId <> @@SPIdOPEN my_cursor FETCH NEXT FROM my_cursor INTO @SPIdWHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0BEGINKILL @SPIdFETCH NEXT FROM my_cursor INTO @SPIdENDCLOSE my_cursor DEALLOCATE my_cursor
Which gives me the following error message when ran.
Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Line 13
Line 13: Incorrect syntax near '@SPId'.
Our company has several SQL Server 7 databases. One of them has now on two occassions, set itself to 'Single User' mode. I am completely baffled as to what can be causing it.
There's no jobs set up to do it.
There's no stored procedures programmed to do it.
The SQL Server Log shows that a DBCC CHECKDB ran at 18:00:37.73 and that users attempted to and couldn't log in from 18:01:01.95 onwards.
There is a maintenance plan set to run every two hours that does a backup, integrity checks, so it fired the CHECKDB.
Any ideas please?
Thanks.
while recovering it prompts a message 'the system administrator must have exclusive use of database to run the restore operation'.
now,how to do it?
how to make database to use exclusively when it is connected to an web based aplication.
thanks.
Hi!
I have a problem with databases that are left in single user mode after transaction log backup.
I have a database maintenance plan job that backs up the transaction log and checks data and index linkage every hour.
Sometimes the job fails and when I look in the report file it says that it has tred to put the database in single user mode and failed because the database is in use and then in the next step it says that it cannot perform the operation because there already is a user in the database.
Why is the database put in single user mode?
What can I do to avoid finding my databases in single user mode?
Below is a part of the report file:

Hello ,
Is it possible to do the backup of SQL server instance in a Single user mode ?
What is the recommended practice ?

I put the database in emergency mode, then I executed Checkdb, it shows no errors. The database status is still EMERGENCY and when I try to bring it online, it says he database is in single-user mode, and a user is currently connected to it. There is one processes which is accessing the database, i try to kill it, but it is not going. I am not able to set database to multi user.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI know what single user mode does but my doubt is at what situations we will go for this? What operations to perform ? we will keep the database in single user mode.
View 7 Replies View RelatedWe have a database that is somehow switching to single-user mode every few days. We suspect that the client application (Access 97) written by a non-developer may be doing something funny.

Dear All,
I want my SQL database to be accessed always in a single user mode through my application. How can I do this ?

I would like to add database to single user mode to enable broker. So, i have tried this:
ALTER DATABASE myDb SET SINGLE_USER WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE
ALTER DATABASE myDb SET ENABLE_BROKER
ALTER DATABASE myDb SET MULTI_USER
But the query works more than half an hour then i have stopped it. i guess it has infinite loop, I get also many of this messages:
Nonqualified transactions are being rolled back. Estimated rollback completion: 0%.
There is no other transaction also there is no other user connections. So, what happens?

Cannot debug stored procedures because the SQL Server database is not setup correctly or user does not have permission to execute master.sp_sdidebug.
Let's say you had a User table and one of the fields was called Deceased. It's a simple closed-ended question, so a bit value could be used to satisfy the field, if the person is dead or alive. Let's say another field is called EyeColor. A person can have only one eye color and thus one answer should be stored in this value, so this is easy as well.
Now, let's say I want to store all the languages that a specific user can speak. This isn't as easy as the previous examples since it's not a yes or no or a single-value answer. I haven't had much experience with working with databases so I've come up with two possible ways with my crude knowledge hehe.
In terms of inputting the multi-answer values, I suppose I could use a multiple-selection listbox, cascading dropdowns, etc. Now, here are the 2 solutions that came to mind.....
1) Make a field called LanguagesSpoken in the User table. When I process the selections the user makes on the languages he knows, I can then insert into the LanguagesSpoken field a string "English, Spanish, Czech" or IDs corresponding to the languages like "1, 5, 12" (these IDs would be referenced from a separate table I guess). I would use commas so that later on, when I need to display a user's profile and show the user's languages, I can retrieve that long string from the LanguagesSpoken field, and parse the languages with the commas I've used. Using commas would just be a convention I use so I would know how to parse (I could have used "." or "|" or anything else I guess) the data.
2) Forget about the LanguagesSpoken field in the User table altogether, and just make a LanguagesSpoken table. A simple implementation would have 3 fields (primary key, userId, languageId). A row would associate a user with a language. So I would issue a query like "SELECT * FROM LanguagesSpoken WHERE userId=5" (where userId=5 is some user). Using this method would free me from having to store a string with delimited values into the User table and then to parse data when I need them. However, I'm not sure how efficient this method would be if the LanguagesSpoken table grows really large since the userIds would NOT be contiguous, the search might take a long time. I guess I would index the userId field in the LanguagesSpoken table for quicker access?
OR, I may be going about this the wrong way and I'm way out on left field with these 2 solutions. Is there a better way other than those 2 methods?
I haven't work extensively with databases and I'm just familiar with the basics. I'm just trying to find out the best-practice implementation for this type of situation. I'm sure in the real world, situations like this is very common and I wonder how the professionals code this.
Thanks in advance.
Recently we had multiple production failures because one database was in single-user mode. I am trying to recreate this scenario to write a script that will kick out that connection that was holding database in single-user.In SSMS window 1 I run the following code:
use master
go
alter database test
set single_user
with rollback immediate
[code]....
Yes, it shows one record, but the database name is master, not test. And indeed, I run it from the context of master. Also tried sp_who, sp_who2, sys.dm_exec_requests - nothing works. For dm_exec_requests it shows nothing because it does not run at the current moment.Any other solutions to catch this SPID with a script?
Hi to all DBAs,
I would like to ask if there will be a write and concurrency issue if i would create an online application with just one user connecting to the database, just like most open source php/mysql that can be downloaded
i.e
Setup 1. I will grant a single user that will connect to a database and will be set to a config.inc.php file and then create a table users (userid, username, password) and this table will be used for the application authentication and access control.
Setup 2. or is it much better to grant users that will connect to the database and have the table users for access control of the application?
to further illustrate my query:
Setup 1 would be:
###################Table: Users
user a@ipadd --> db1 --> userid mary --> myOnlineApp
user a@ipadd --> db1 --> userid john --> myOnlineApp
user a@ipadd --> db1 --> userid paul --> myOnlineApp
and Setup 2 would be:
#####################Table: Users
user mary@ipadd --> db1 --> userid mary --> myOnlineApp
user john@ipadd --> db1 --> userid john --> myOnlineApp
user paul@ipadd --> db1 --> userid paul --> myOnlineApp
will Setup 1 be enough if I will use SQL Server as database?
or Setup 2 is better user/database architecture?
This application will be online enrollment for a school with 16,000 students
very much appreciated for the feedbacks and suggestions

hi guys,
Could any one tell me whats the best way to put encypted data into a table.i have a textfield that a single integer is entered into it. It is then encrypted using DES encrption algorithim.It converts the value to byte(Convert2ByteArray method) I pass the data to a stored procedure which converts it to char before inserting it into the table. when i checked the database all it entered was System.Byte[]. Does anyone know where im goin wrong?

I had an idea to put all my web design settings, css text and web content in the database..This way it would be easy for others to edit remotely. Do you guys think this would have an impact on performance if I do this?

I hope the answer is as simple as the question -- but after reading all the documentation I could find (understand?) and a lot of posts here, I'm no closer to achieving the goal.
I have a Visual C# app, DAYTRACKER, developed in VS2005. It uses a database with several tables constructed using SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition.
I want to deploy the app plus the database plus SQL Express to another machine, to be used by a single user (the administrator) with no need for network connectivity of any kind.
What I have so far is:
1. The application is successfully deployed from a CD-ROM, having used the Publish process within VS2005, and opens on the new machine -- without database connectivity, however.
2. SQL Express is successfully deployed (it deployed as a 'prerequisite' when I went through the Publish process in VS2005)
3. I manually copied the database's .mdf and .mdl files, using SQL Server Managers 'Copy Database' function, then transferred the copies to the new machine into the ..MSSQL.1MSSQLdata folder (where they appear along with the master.mdg, mastlog.ldf etc files)
Now, the DAYTRACKER application's DAYTRACKERConnectionString under 'Settings' in the VS2005 studio reads 'Data Source=DELL3;Initial Catalog=DayTracker;Integrated Security=True' (which are the appropriate parameters for the machine, DELL3, on which I wrote the program.)
The problem, of course, is that SQL Express on the new machine doesn't connect the application to the database. When I go to the 'SQL Server Configuration Manager' and go to the 'SQL Server 2005 Services' and double-click on the 'SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS)' icon (the service is running) and the user is logged on using 'Local System Account'. Under the 'Service' tab the Host Name is 'MUSIC' (which is the name of the new machine I've installed the app onto -- which of course is not the name - DELL3 - that the app's connection string is expecting). Under the 'Advanced' tab, I've tried correcting the name of the Startup Parameters default .mdf and .mdl entries to ..DayTracker.mdf and ..DayTracker_log.mdl, but the server won't start up after I make the changes.
What I'm hoping for: a step-by-step way of doing this type of deployment, preferable getting it all onto one CD-ROM, and installing it on the new machine so that it all works seamlessly from the start, not requiring any 'tweaking' of the SQLServer Express settings by the end-user.
But I'll take pretty much anything that fixes the specific db connectivity problem I've described.
Thank you very much.

We recently had a problem were a webserver lost connection to sql 2000 database after we put in a new router. When we failed back to old router it was able to connect to database again. It is using a non standard port 2125 to connect to sql database. Why would a new router cause connection problems to a database.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI have written a VB/SQL Server based application. The application uses stored procs and the SQL Server security model to handle logins and permissions. My partner and I want to sell the applicaiton to specific businesses and offer a rental program for smaller companies that would like to use the application to connect to an internet based database. The application uses TCP/IP with a specific port number to connect to the database so it can be used in or out of LAN.
If we rent the application, maintenance is simple. I just create a user in the database with the login/password the user would like and viola they have access to the data.
When a company wants to purchase the program to use in-house, we would like to offer two alternatives: #1 a single user or #2 a multiple user SQL Server database.
My question is if a company purchases the single-user version, how can we keep them from adding users to their database. In other words, since we have no control over the database at the client's location, how can we ensure that it remains a single-user database?
Thanks for any help!
