We've been running a database on a shared server. The traffic on our
site has been picking up steadily and it seems as though we're running
into sporadic downtime on the database. Sometimes when we do large
data imports, the transaction log fills up and the schema somehow
fails to truncate it when asked to back it up. So we run the explicit
truncate statement and that usually seems to fix the problem. A few
days ago a single stored procedure started to block, but inexplicably
only when called by our .NET server. When called by hand from
Enterprise Manager, it executed fine. I was at my wits end when I
just recreated it with the same exact code and it magically started
working again. What gives? Is this at all indicative of a shared
database, or are these known SQL Server issues?
currently two people(with different username and password) are using a shared workstation, where in the sql server is installed. so i just wanted to know that whether two people could use the sql server at the same time. please note that the two people have different username and password to enter to log in.
I am new to setting up SQL Server and would greatly appreciate ifsomeone can help me out with this issue:I have successfully set up SQL Server but want to be able for clientsof mine to be able to connect to it via the web through enterprisemanager. I have tried everything I could think of to get it to work. Imade sure the correct ports where open in the firewall (1433,1434).Everytime I try to connecting using the IP of the box that the SQLServer resides I get SQL Server does not exist or access denied. Iverified that the login credentials being used for the database I amtrying to correct to are correct. Still the same error message.How I would like to set it up would be to create a subdomain on thebox and point it to SQL Server so that is what would be entered whenregistering the group in enterprise manager.I am currently running all my sites through vhost on a single IP usingIIS 2003. SQL Server is installed on the box where all of the sitesare being served up.Is it impossible to set-up SQL Server to allow connections over theweb when using a Shared IP?I have been researching this for over a week now and hope someone outthere can help me.Thanks in advance!!
I am receiving the following error when starting a program called ShelbySystems that is supposed to connect to a local database. I don't think this is a security issue but I don't know much about SQL server either so...

I am including the trace log in case it is useful.
I need to connect to a SQL server thats running in say abc.trident.com and also sits in a shared environment..
I have couple of questions
1) That SQL server is accessible from my network, yet when I swtich on my enterprise manager I am unable to view that in the list of running SQL servers in the populated list.
Is it because its sitting in a shared environment I am unable to view that?
2) What is the connection striing I should use to connect to the server..When I try to configure a SQL server registrations it normally asks for SQL Server name along with the user authentication
Should I mention fill the Server: field as
abc.trident.com
or
// abc.trident.com/abc.trident.com
to connect to the clustered server.
Can some one tell me the proper connection string if both aforementioned ones are incorrect?
I want to backup and/or have a local copy of my DB which is on a shared host. I have an ip addreess and user/pwd, but I am at a loss to find any help for the steps to accomplish this in Management express.
i am getting ready to build the back end for a client server application, using a shared sql server as a back end. microsoft's white pages don't mention shared hosting. i need to know if anyone else has had problems with lisencing in a shared hosting environment. my web host told me i don't need to liscence my users (who will have read write priveledges), but microsoft gave me the impression that i did. anyone know a clear answer?
am doing a project with SQL 2005 as backend.my database is in a shared SQL server. i want to know that is it possible to send email through SQL in a a shared server?Plz help me out.
Please can anybody help me in transferring existing SSIS Packages saved in a shared folder location from development server 2ED to Live server TWD1. Both has SQL server 2005 running and has visual studio 2005 Currently about 25 SSIS packages are executed from the development server transferring data on Live server TWD1...these ETL process is called from development server but executed on live server. Now the problem is when i call these packages from the shared folder from live server it crashes.....i need to changes something to shift the whole package to the live server..and execute on live server itself instead of recreating the whole 25 process from scratch.....also i use optimize for many tables ..and run in a single trancastion....so how can i see the mappings of source and destination tables.
Please let me know the process how i can achieve this. Thanks George
Would table1, table2 and table3 in code below, be locked with a shared lock from start of transaction to the end of transaction Or they would only be locked for the duration of their update, or insert statements and not for the entire transaction?

I have a web app and database created in sql server 2005 express. In addition to using the membership and role providers I have added custom tables and stored procedures to my db. When I try to export this with Sql Server Management Studio (not the express version) to my db on my shared host(sql server 2005) the custom tables and stored procedures are not transferred. How can this be accomplished? Thanks in advance.
I'd like to do this:Have a SQL Server database hosted on a public facing web server.I want it to be held at an ISP/Web hosting company. Though I have ADSL hereI don't want to manage a server.I want some ASP pages accessing the database.I would also like for a very small number (probably 2) of users to accessthe database from a richer client. Perhaps Access/VB.I've tried using www.shanje.com, as a test. It seems to work, though thereare worries about security.I want to keep cost down!On 'normal' shared MS hosting, would it be possible to connect to the dbfrom a client like Access. The way most web hosts talk it doesn't look likeit.Is there any way of providing a richer client interface than plain webpages? I want things like autocomplete (beyond the first character) for dropdowns, keyboard shortcuts etc.This would be low volume. Essentially a private database held on theinternet.Yours, Jo
Our 32-bit applications connect to SQL Server 32-bit through OLEDB with Shared memory as preferred protocol. Our client applications and SQL Server generally reside on same machine. We are evaluating possible impact when SQL Server 2008 64-bit is accessed with our 32-bit client applications running on 64bit WindowsServer 2008. Can shared memory protocol will be still used by underlying SQL server OLEDB dll considering the client application is 32-bit where as SQL Server is 64-bit ? Or it will switch to Named pipes or TCP/IP automatically ?
I am trying to get my hosting company to provide a way to make secure encrypted connections from my desktop (where I am using Enterprise Manager and Aqua Data Studio) to their shared MS SQL Server.
I've seen some references to SSH, but I don't understand how this works or how the host would implement it. I also read that an SSL certificate can be installed on SQL Server, but it doesn't seem as if EM or ADS can make SSL connections to SQL Server. (In case it makes any difference for either of these solutions, the hosting company has port 1433 open, and will not close it because some clients connect to the DB server from web apps on their own intranets.)
Finally, if a web-based admin is used instead (like phpMyAdmin for MySQL), then which machine is the software installed on? Can it be on a web server that makes a local connection to the DB server or does it have to be on the DB machine? E.g., if I had a VPS or dedicated server at the same hosting company would I be able to install web-based admin software which would then connect to the host's shared SQL Server?
Anyway, my host is giving incomprehensible (to me) objections to all of these ideas. Is there a reasonably simple way to do this on a shared DB server?
My hosting gives me ASP.NET 2.0 and a shared SQL Server 2005 package. I have Visual Studio 2005 on my machine - which installs SQL Server 2005 Express. I have also installed SQL Server 2005 Management Studio Express. I wish to develop my database locally (mdf file) as I won't always have internet access (and therefore can't always work directly with the remote shared database). My question is, how do I upload my database info from my local machine to my remote shared database? Also I shall wish to download my remote database to my local machine in order to work on the database (and then be able to re-upload it) sometimes. Please can somebody tell me how I can do this? Will SQL Server 2005 Management Studio Express permit me to do this and if so how? If I need the full version of SQL Server 2005 Management Studio then I do have SQL Server 2005 and this install with it (but it all looks a bit complicated to install for me). Many thanks for all help given, Graham
I am having an Access database on a shared network drive which has read/write access rights on the that shared network drive. When I try to Access data through the linked server it gives me gives me a message box saying you do not have permissions to view the data. Also if i try to use xp_cmdshell to copy over the mdb file to my local drive it say 'Access denied'
But when I copy (through command prompt) the same file to another network drive or my local drive where I have full control the linked server can connect sucessfully.
The problem is the i cannot have 'full control' permissions on shared drive where my database resides.
Can any one help - my Full text catalog on a remote shared sql server hasdied and i need to recreate it completely - I have done this before but i'velost the code to do it.If I remember right what i did was use start --> run --> to run an exe in themssql folder that connected to the remote server - but i've lost all theparameters I needed for it.ANy help much apprectiated
I have a Microsoft Access application which uses linked SQL Server tables. I would like to create an ODBC DSN which would be available to all users so that I don't have to create a DSN on each machine. Can this be done? The Access application resides on a shared drive (Windows). Thanks for your help.
I'm not a SQL Server expert, but need to understand something. I'm currently have SQL Server 2000 SP4 installed locally on my machine for application development.
Using sp_lock, I noticed that there are lots of shared database locks. After some study, i produced this interesting script:
use Master go sp_lock go use Experience go sp_lock go
which results in:
spid dbid ObjId IndId Type Resource Mode Status ------ ------ ----------- ------ ---- ---------------- -------- ------ 52 1 85575343 0 TAB IS GRANT spid dbid ObjId IndId Type Resource Mode Status ------ ------ ----------- ------ ---- ---------------- -------- ------ 52 13 0 0 DB S GRANT 52 1 85575343 0 TAB IS GRANT
My question is about the extra lock added by the "Use Experience statement". It lasts as long as the Experience DB connection is open
Question 1: The way I read this is: the "use Experience" statement creates a shared database lock. Am I reading this right?
Question 2: I started looking into this because my application produces lots of locks that seem to live for 15-20 minutes. I have not noticed other adverse side effects of these locks. I have confirmed that nothing I have control over creates transactions, so I do not see why locks would be maintained. Should I be concerned about these locks? Is this expected behavior?
I'm trying to silently(quiet mode) install Sql Server 2005 and our application.I created a custom wrapper and included all the files and folders extracted from SQLEXPR.exe.
So when I execute this customized setup its throwing an error : Could not register Program Files/Microsoft SQL Server/90/Shared/msxmlsql.dll
If I ignore the above error its throwing similar errors for almost all the files under Program Files/Microsoft SQL Server/90/Shared folder.
Hello,I have a doubt. I've just bought a private server and now I can decide between having my applications under a private SQL Server Express database or under a Shared SQL Server database.The application is not professional, it's just a hobby, but it could have more than 100.000 entries and be used by 200 users at the same time.I know the limitations of SQL Server Express, but I want to know the opinion of someone who have experienced about this.Thanks!
extending the buffer pool onto an SSD drive that is shared ? For instance, if we had a mirrored system drive(The C logical partition) on SSD's, can we use the remaining space on that mirrored partition to extend my SQL 2014 buffer pool ? I understand that in this scenario, there is some competition for the I/O throughput between SQL Server's extended buffer pool and the OS. We intend to have the pagefile on a different disk, other than this specific SSD.
I'm busy rewriting DTS packages as SSIS packages. As and when I finish a package I run it in debug mode via Microsoft Visual Studio and then examine the Exection Results to see the messages generated.
Now it may or may not matter how I run the package but the following warning has been generated :-
[SSIS.Pipeline] Warning: Warning: Could not open global shared memory to communicate with performance DLL; data flow performance counters are not available. To resolve, run this package as an administrator, or on the system's console.
I'm building a hosted website and I am using SQL 2005. The DBA for the host has told me that i can not encrypt a symmetric key with a certificate, when using that symmetric key for encryption. As i read that this method provided optimum performance/ security for encrypting columns of data.
The DBA told me i can use a cert or a symmetric key for encryption. I have searched for comparisons and found a blog entry by Laurentiu Cristofor comparing certs with asymmetric keys. Which leads me to believe that certs and asymm are very different than symmetric keys.
My question is which is the best choice in a hosted environment for column encryption, a cert or symmetric key. Which is more secure? Does one offer a significant performance (dis)advantage?
I now have 2 server, say serverA and serverB. ServerA has a SQL server and I am using a command in the SQL server to access the serverB. The command is:
where abc is a shared folder in serverB which can be accessed by serverA. However the output of this execution is "c:> mkdir "\serverBabckevin_wong123" Access is denied". It is possible to do this in command prompt. Does anyone know what's the problem of this?
I have a asp.net 2.0 app that has a sql server express backend. I have been scratching my head for weeks trying to find a good wasy to encrypt my connection string. I store the string in web.config (which in itself is in theory "safe" because it's not servable) and I have scoured the web to try to find a simple way to encrypt the connection string. Even using user store would require running aspreg_iis.exe on the host with a command prompt (which clearly I cannot do). It seems that everyone's solution requires running a command prompt executable on the server.
So I am left to wonder what everyone else does. I am not comfortable using just the web.config because a determined hacker could get to that info. Then again, a determined hacker could get into any system , I guess. There are no credit card #'s stored in this app, but in theory there must be a way. I run all access to the db through stored procedures with permissions, for whatever it's worth.
I wrote the below script to print all folders and files located in the share path. How to extend my script to mention by adding another column whether the file is a folder/file , sort of 0 or 1.
Can multiple instances of SQL 2005 Express attach to the same database files on a network share? I have seen this done before with MSDE where the database files are stored on the server, but instead of having a SQL server running on the network and then connecting to it, only the database files exist on the network share and the users connect through MSDE running on the local machine. Is this possible with SQL2005Express? I do not have the ability to share an SQL instance from one workstation to another nor do I have the ability to install an instance on the corporate server. Is it as simple as creating the database and storing the files on the share then attaching the database to the SQL Instance on each workstation?
We are trying to set up an active/active configuration of a SQL Server cluster, and we had a few questions.
Initially, we want to have 2 Database Servers that would share the same Database (both reading/writing to the same tables). However, from reading the MS docs, we find out that we can have what they call an "active/active" configuration using a Cluster but they need to have 2 different disk sets, i.e. having 2 separate databases. If this assumption is correct, how does the data get synchronised between the 2 databases (that are on the 2 different disks sets)?
I have a shared drive mapped to the h: drive letter on my sql server and I want to create new databases on that drive. Is this at all possible? I try it and I couldn't see h: even if I typed it in.
Maybe someone can suggest me some software which can be used for SQL 2005 shared hosting? With database size limit, user number restriction and other features.
Hi, I am trying to use shared variables in the emebedded code of a report. But when i assign a value to the shared variable in the detail level and access the same from footer it shows different value (0).
I declared an integer variable as a shared variable. And changed its value in the detail level. Then tried to access its value in the table footer.
Public Shared testVal As Integer
Function testValFunc() testVale = 25 End Function
In detail level i call Code.testValFunc() In footer -> Code.testValFunc() gives 0
Any Idea??? Is it because the header/footer is computed first and then the detail? - HelpSeeker
