Script To Spot OS/SFW/HDW Changes On My SQL Servers?
Jul 20, 2005
Hi all. I am looking for a script that I might use to spot OS,
hardware, registry changes. Also be nice if I could tell when someone
loads new software or unistalls old, by I guess I would see that in
registry changes? I would settle for any of the above...the situation
is we have some network engineers who tend to fart around a little to
much on our production MS-SQL servers and I need to know when they
make a change because they wont own up to it when things go wrong.
Can someone help? I realize this would likely be a wmi/wsh/vbs
scripting solution, but I also posting this here becasue I figure at
least one shop out there has the same issue I am having with loose
cannon admin types.

I have a report that was designed using SQL Reporting Services that sits on a SQL reporting server. It's nothing too exciting, it is essentially a three page application with legal jumbo on pages 2 and 3 and applicant data in fields on page 1.
We use rectangles to force page breaks to page 2 and to page 3.
When running the report on the report server, it shows and prints fine.
When running the report from the QA website internally, it shows and prints just fine.
When running the report from the production website from a machine internally, it shows and prints just fine.
When running the report from outside of the company network, the report is jacked. It obliterates large chunks of text, crams text together, and creates blank pages.
I need help in determining where I even begin with trouble shooting this!

can anyone tell me if they know of a way to automate the update process from development servers to live server, with little interference from an administrator
I have a development team that are constantly updating their databases along with their ASP code, and want to publish changes an a weekly basis. They have asked me for a way to take their new structures, tables, procedures etc, and copy them to the live servers, but NOT to interfere with existing customer data.
Funny I know – and I hate the idea btw :(
Any references, contacts, 3rd party tool recommendations welcome,
Thanx,
Darren

I am in the middle of a major migraton project, moving from x86 SQL 2000 to IA64 SQL 2005. I have a business need to link to several legacy servers. I have a number of problems I am trying to solve.
1) Linking a Kerberos server to a non-Kerberos server.
2) Linking x64 or IA64 servers to x86 servers.
3) Linking SQL 2005 to SQL 2000.
Two of the errors I am encountering are:
------------------------------
TCP Provider: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.
Login failed for user '(null)'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "SCDC250DB" returned message "Communication link failure".
(Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 10054)
------------------------------
And
------------------------------
The OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for the linked server "SCDC250DB" reported an error. Authentication failed.
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "SCDC250DB".
OLE DB provider "SQLCLI" for linked server "SCDC250DB" returned message "Invalid authorization specification".
(Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 7399)
If someone has worked through these problems before, I would appreciate it if you could direct me to the relevant documentation to resolve these issues.
Thanks!

Hi,
We have two servers one is the LIVE SERVER and another one is TEST SERVER. The Dumps from LIVE SERVER has been restored onto TESTSERVER. Now, when I try to run some applications in TESTSERVER it starts executing it in LIVE SERVER.
When I checked up the SELECT @@SERVERNAME value in TEST SERVER, it still refers to TEST SERVER only.
Is there any other table or value I need to check.
Can anyone help me on this.
thanks in advance

Hi,
does anyone have a script that I can adapt to collect the status of all my servers please? I am managing 20+ servers, plus MSDE installs with various applications and its now a nightmare tracking each one. I am building a central database where information such as this can be referenced but i need to populate it and then updated it regularly, hopefully with a scheduled job and some nifty sp's.
any ideas how i can achieve it if the scripts are not already around? i use PRINT @@VERSION currently, can i execute this in a different format to assess a different server from the one running the process?
thanks

I have SQL Server 2005 running on my local computer (OS Windows 2000). I also have SLQ Server 2005 running on a server (64 bit OS Windows 2003)
I need to copy a table from a DB on my local server to a DB on the server.
On my local computer I can see and connect to the DB on the server. No problem.
But when I remote desktop to the server and try to connect to the server on my local computer I get the error:
Error has occurred trying to establish connection to the server… under default settings server does not allow remote connections…
Both servers are set to the default settings. What settings do I need to change so that I can connect to my local server from the other server?

I've just downloaded and installed SQL Server 2005 Trial Edition in an HP 2660rx Itanium server. I can see from the Configuration Manager that there is a service running a database instance which I created during the installation but when I try to connect to the new database thru the SQL Server Management Studio it doesn't find any (when Database Engine is the selected server type) server names. In SSMS console only when I select Integration Services as the server type it detects the server name.
What could be wrong? In my server I just made a clean installation of Windows 2003 Server and SQL Server is the only software I have installed since that.
Any help availabe?

Hi All,I have recently published a website to our webserver and i get a sql error. We have a webserver that does not have sqlserver on it and and our database server which does. i have used the configuration utility to to setup my users and roles which created the ASPNETDB in my local App_Data folder. Is there a way to copy this database to our database server and change the references so the site refers to the new instance on the database server as apposed to the local instance when a user logs in?ThanksBryan

I have two db instances on different SQL Servers. One is my test db and the other the prod. db. Each has two tables that hold lookUp values for the entire application. I would like to keep these tables in sync. in both dbs. The prod. db would be the master. I was trying to design a trigger to insert, update, or delete the appropriate records in the test db as they were added or deleted from the prod db.
I'm getting too many prefixes errors on the script when trying to reference the table on the test db using four part naming convention.
Any ideas on how to resolve this issue? Do I need to set up a linked server to accomplish this functionality? If so, how do I setup security for a linked server?
Thanks in advance.

need some help!
Im doing an asp.net project on my laptop. im using the web matrix and sql server. my laptop is on its last legs so i need to start using my PC in college.
Now here is where it gets complicated. Last year we had accces to a server in the college to run .net pages across the network. But there has always been some problem with that server so there was no way of connecting to sql server. At the moment i have heard that some students use an orion web server to connect their pages to an access database,which wont do me.
Here is my plan, im going to install sql server on my computer(could get in trouble though!). i just need a web server on my machine to test my pages out without having to go accross the network of the college.
Any ideas?
i have cassini but have never used it.
There is no IIS on the computer so that is out the window

Hi,
I'm using SQL Server 7.0 SP1.
I have a DTS package that requires me to link 2 servers
and query both in order to get my set of records that I
want to Transform. My query runs fine in QA. I copy and
paste it into the SQL Query window of the transformation.
I click Preview and all that happens is a quick flicker of
the DTS window. When I go to Transformations, there are
no source columns.
Here is a copy of my code that I'm trying to use:
-------------------------------------------------------
declare@start_dteas datetime,
@end_dteas datetime
SELECT@start_dte = date_data_range_start_dte,
@END_DTE = date_data_range_END_dte
FROMSIDDEV.SID_DEVELOPMENT.DBO.T901_RUN
WHERERUN_ID = (selectmax(run_id)
from
SIDDEV.SID_DEVELOPMENT.DBO.t901_run
whererun_type_cd = 'M')
SELECTRUN_ID
INTO#RUNS
FROMCRMDEV02.MDCORE.DBO.T901_RUN
WHEREDATE_DATA_RANGE_START_DTE >= @START_DTE
ANDDATE_DATA_RANGE_END_DTE <= @END_DTE
SELECTT70.*
FROM
CRMDEV02.MDCORE.DBO.T70_MD_UNIVERSE_RELATIONSHIP_M A
NGT AS T70 JOIN #RUNS
ONT70.RUN_ID = #RUNS.RUN_ID
DROP TABLE #RUNS
------------------------------------------------------
Is there an issue with Linked Servers and DTS?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

the 6.5 uses mixed mode security,
the 7.0 uses trusted. Using
sp_addlinkedsrvlogin I can get from a client to
the 7.0 server, but not to the 6.5.
Is this even possible?

When I create linked server using integrated security and <they will be impersonated> option I get this:
Server: Msg 18456, Level 14, State 1, Line 1 Login failed for user ''
MS Technet says that SQL Server 7 doesn't allow double hops and to use mappings to standard security login to work around. @#%%~~@@#@#&^%@#
Impersonating to version 6.5 works fine.
Is there any way to link servers using ONLY integrated security?
Any help would be much appreciated.

Hi Everybody,
Can anybody help me on Remote Servers. I want to create a remote server
from 6.5 to 7.0. Is it possible to create a remote server from 6.5 to 7.0?.
From the Books online I saw remote server related commands. Like Linked servers in 7.0, tables of 7.0 can be extracted like "select * from <Remote_server>.<Database>.<Owner>.<Table_name>", in 6.5 Remote servers?. How do we execute a stored procedure of 7.0 Database from 6.5 server in remote server?.
Can anybody guide me on the above topics.
Tks in advance,
Sam

Can anyone give me advice on how to register 6.5 servers using SQL 7.0. Every time I try and register a 6.5 servers it fails. I get an error stating that "I must upgraded the 6.5 server or later to be administered by this version of SQL-DMO". I can't upgrade the server to 7.0 because the COTS product that we are using as the front end relies on 6.5. Is there any way to do this? Or do I have to install 6.5 on my workstation as a separate application than 7.0? Someone please help?
