I downloaded the AdventureWorks2012 OLTP script. When I ran it it gave me some errors. I also noticed that it tried to install into the bult-in master database, it created a lot of tables and objects. Some questions :
1) How can I remove everything that the script installed into master database?
2) Do I need to create 1st an empty database and then run the script there?
3) I am running the script from a custom path (C:DownloadsMicrosoft SQL Server 2012AdventureWorks 2012 OLTP Script.zipAdventureWorks 2012 OLTP Script) not sure if this is causing some of the errors as the script, in the beggining has a path to other folders :
:setvar SqlSamplesDatabasePath  "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL11.MSSQLSERVERMSSQLDATA"
-- NOTE: Change this path if you copied the script source to another path
:setvar SqlSamplesSourceDataPath "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL11.MSSQLSERVERToolsSamplesAdventureWorks 2012 OLTP Script"
4) Final question, I also downloaded the AdventureWorks 2012 simple database (AdventureWorks2012_Data.mdf). Is this file the same database as the one created by the OLTP script?

I'm new to sql, so go easy ;)
I'm attempting to install sql for a BCM 2007 installation, and I'm using this document: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=f24267ee-9ad5-4be5-b888-c9a50ae395ca&displaylang=en
Now, I'm trying to do this on Windows 2003 Standard server, which may be the problem, but perhaps not? Anyway, the command I'm attempting to run is:
sqlcmd €“S .\%INSTANCENAME% €“E €“Q €œexec sp_grantlogin [%DOMAIN%\%USER%]; grant create database to [%DOMAIN%\%USER%]€?
which is basic enough (and I did replace the %%'s with the correct info) but I'm getting this error back:
Sqlcmd: '-S': Unknown Option. Enter '-?' for help.
Any ideas???
edit: I did just notice this from the sql express readme, so I may try reinstalling... advice would still be appreciated!
3.10 Installing SQL Server Express on a Windows Domain Controller
Security Note:
We recommend against running SQL Server Express on a domain controller.
It is possible to install SQL Server Express on a Windows domain controller; however, it cannot run on a Windows Server 2003 domain controller as Local Service or Network Service. SQL Server service accounts should run as Windows domain user accounts. It is also possible to install SQL Server service accounts to run as Local System, but this option is not recommended.
Do not change the role of the server after you install SQL Server Express. For example, if you install SQL Server Express on a member server, do not use the Dcpromo tool to promote the server to a domain controller. Or, if you install SQL Server Express on a domain controller, do not use Dcpromo to demote the server to a member server. Changing the role of a server after you install SQL Server Express can result in loss of functionality and is not supported.

I have a SQL 2005 SP2 fail-over cluster with several named instances. It has been running for sometime with no problems. Recently I had to add a new windows group to a named instance. From Management Studio I brought up the "Login - new " gui hit search to find the group in out doamin and got the following error mesage:
The program cannot open the required dialog box because it cannot determine whether the computer named "<instance_name>" is joined to a domain.
The id I am using is a domain authenticated account and I used this same proceedure to add windows groups in the past. If I ignore the message and type in the group as domaingroup_name I can still add the group and users of that group can log into the instance. The other named instances have the same probelm. There are no errors in the event log or SQL's log. Any ideas on how to get the domain search back would be appriciated.

We are setting up a test lab environment with 100 machines. Â We want one master testing db that gets replicated to each to run scripted application tests nightly. Â
My goal is to minimize the amount of work to move this thing to each of the 100 test machines. Â I am wondering if we need to even have the sql local and invest in a monster db server with 100 copies of the db we restore and each test machine point to their own db on that server, or if I should use db mirroring or something to get the master test db to each of those machines instead.

I have uninstalled the CTP version of the SQL Server express so that I can install the released version but CTP version is still listed in the add/remove program list but without the change/remove button. I have been to different sites to find information on cleaning this up and I have ran all the uninstall tool I can find but the problem still prevails. I cannot install the released version without completely getting rid of the CTP version. Please help anyone.
Thanks

I need help,
I am having a hard time removing my SQL instance inside the Add/Remove program. After i select the SQL Instance name and then I tried to remove it but it won't allow me to delete it. There isn't any error message or whatsoever. Actually, when i try to log it in my SQL Management studio, that certain sql instance name is not existing according to the message box. Is there any way to remove the Sql Instance in my system?
I appreciate your help, Thanks

I have XP Pro SP2 with MDAC 2.8.1022. It had a problem so I tried to reinstall MDAC and got a Fatal Setup Error. This setup does not support installing on this operating system. I downloaded MDAC 2.8 1177 and get the same error.
I thought of uninstalling/reinstalling SP2, but this is a 2 month old Dell Latitude 610 with factory installed XP. There is no Windows Service Pack 2 option listed in the Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs.
There's some other strange things, so I wonder if they are related.
1) I have Paul set up as an administrator account. Some folders like MSSQL show that account with no permissions. I grant all the permissions to Paul for that folder. I come back later and the permissions are gone.
2) I deleted 20 files in Explorer, but 7 of them did not go away. I deleted those 7 again and they instatnly reappeared. I deleted those 7 again and then they finally went away.
3) I get a slow reaction time for things like Windows Explorer and opening and closing programs. This is suprising since it has 2 gig of RAM and 2.3 Gig processor. Could it be a memory handling problem that's causing OS problems. Probably, the memory didn't handle the OS installation well and the whole system is compromised now.

We're doing upgrades from SQL 2008 R2 to SQL 2014. This is blocked due to RS is installed but not configured. Our desired action is to uninstall RS and proceed with the upgrade. But when setuparp.exe is raised, it does not list all the features on the 'Select Features' page. In fact, it only lists the last 2 shared features (SQ Client Connectivity SDK and Microsoft Sync Framework). However, all items appear to be listed on the 'Select Instance' page including RS. I've seen this issue on 2 of our SQL 2008 R2 Servers already.

I'm trying to install SQL Server Management studio 2012 on my Windows 7 (x64) standalone laptop. When I click "New SQL stand-alone installation..." it runs a Setup Support Rules check and always fails "Setup Account Privileges". I've looked into the error and I keep getting that I need to change security rules but I don't have that option in window 7. How do I get around this without having to resort to a computer running Windows Server?
I have Visual Studio 2013 premium installed along with Localdb v11. I just want to connect and manage my database engine through SSMS when developing any application.

I am running a number of SQL instances on my PC. Within the network, I have think server with various System Center components. For compatibility reasons, some features of System Center 2012 R2 had to be delegated to different SQL databases. My question is, because there is now more than one IP address on my system, and each instance of SQL is assigned to its own IP, is there a way to setup DNS and SQL so the namespace points to the desired IP address? For Instance:
MSSQL2008 instance is set to run on = 11.12.13.1
MSSQL2012 is set to run on = 11.12.13.2
IN DNS:
A Record: Mike-PC = 11.12.13.1
A Record: Mike-PC = 11.12.13.2
If I want to use MSSQL2008 by specifying Mike-PC as the DNS name, how would I do that with 100% accuracy? If there is another way to get the job done, I am more than willing to approach this differently.

I recently lost my job and wanted to do some test development to keep my skills up to date. The problem is I don't have access to any data sources. Is there such a thing around? I tried installing microsoft's trial of SQL 2005 but can't get it to run on my laptop and SQL 2000 trial no longer exists. I simply need to create a SQL db/tables etc. Thanks in advance.

Hi!
I am currently utilizing the checksum function to generate a hash that I later compare to detect changes in a row.
CHECKSUM(field1, field2, field3, field4)
Now I'd like to use the HashBytes function instead over the same fields. But the HashBytes function accepts only one data value. What is the most effective and reliable way of getting an MD5 over several fields?
Thanks

Hi.
I have an application where I allow users to type in their SQL queries. Before I store those queries I have to make sure that they are correct, both syntax-wise and data type-wise. For that I execute the query against the database and trap any errors that may be returned and that's how I judge if the query was OK.
In order to keep this test as quick as possible, I tried to add a WHERE clause to it like: WHERE 1=2, so no results are returned. But then I discovered that the addition keeps errors from happening if they are of ata type nature.For instance "select orderid + 'test' from orders where 1=2", run against the Northwind database, returns no errors, while OrderID is numeric and U'm adding a string to it!
Next, I tried to return only one row: "select top 1 orderid + 'test' from orders". This time the error is thrown, however the query still takes a looong time when run on a huge table. I don't kknow why that is, but it seems that the engine runs the query for the entire table and then gets the first row!
Does anyone have an idea ehat's happening or have a better suggestion on how I can perform my test without killing the database?
Thanks.

I have a stored procedure which runs a query, then turns it on its side (so that the rows are column headers).What I need to do now is test if any of the values in a row from this stored procedure are null.Any suggestions on how to get started? Is there some function that will tell me if any value in the row is null?

Hi -
I'm having a problem with a VB6 program I'm writing that posts data to a SQL server. The problem occurs when the SQL server is unavailable. When this happens it causes the program to hang for at least 30 seconds before releasing. The hang happens at the code that connects to the SQL server, because the server isn't there. I've added code found on this site to test the connectivity prior to making my actual data connection, but this causes the same hang. Is there any way to verify connectivity to an SQL server without actually trying to make the connection? I'm really trying to eliminate the hang that occurs when the server is unavailable.
Thanks

I have gotten some criticism from coworkers regarding this test and just wanted to see what you guys think. I realize the wording could use improvement and any criticism towards making it easier to understand is much appreciated.FWIW - I had to solve this problem on the job so I feel it is a real-world test that helps me understand how people think and if they try to find alternate solutions.Thanks!~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~Given a table that has over 100,000 records…SUBSIDIARY=========PARENT_IDINTCHILD_IDINTULTIMATE_PARENT_IDINTCLEANUP_INDBIT…where each PARENT_ID can have multiple CHILD_ID values, but the PARENT_ID should not equal the CHILD_ID. After an initial data load, the ULTIMATE_PARENT_ID and CLEANUP_IND columns contain NULL values (see page 2 for sample data).ULTIMATE_PARENT_ID is defined as the topmost parent in the chain for the particular CHILD_ID record, so if the chain was only 2-level’s deep the ULTIMATE_PARENT_ID is the CHILD_ID’s PARENT_ID’s PARENT_ID.Please write an answer for all three questions below:A)Which of the following queries should you run first?B)Write an optimized query to identify the ULTIMATE_PARENT_ID for each CHILD_ID and set its value into the ULTIMATE_PARENT_ID column.C)Write a query to identify ALL of the circular references and mark each record that is a circular reference by updating the CLEANUP_IND column to 1.~~~~~~~~~ Page 2 ~~~~~~~~~ Sample Data, remember though this table has over 100,000 records and the parent-child chain can go n-levels deep – where n is not known.PARENT_IDCHILD_IDULTIMATE_PARENT_IDCLEANUP_IND1024512NULLNULL362300NULLNULL887541NULLNULL10221024NULLNULL546887NULLNULL5122305NULLNULL112967NULLNULL697123NULLNULL901452NULLNULL2300666NULLNULL334445NULLNULL512903NULLNULL884554NULLNULL313313NULLNULL554884NULLNULL112119NULLNULL967555NULLNULL2305333NULLNULL33336NULLNULL541546NULLNULL10301020NULLNULL112999NULLNULL

Hi,
Whats the best way to test scalability on a database? I'm working on a new app, and have handed off developing the database to someone with more experience. Some tables will grow to many million records, and I don't want it to bottleneck. I need to have it fully tested before it goes live.
Is it reasonable to ask the person helping me to fill it with 10's of millions of rows to test performance? Is this a decent solution? If so, what would the best way to fill it be? If not, what steps should I take?
Thanks very much!
