hi,
What are the steps to be followed to shutdown a production sqlserver?
(like checking user connections, termination processes etc)
IIS is connecting to the database.
Thanks

Hi All,
I've a question about user-management when developing webapplications:
Which approach would you people preferre?
1. Create a table in the database with the following columns: username, password, group, rights
use this table to add or remove users from the system and take care of the user rights like reading, writing, updating, deleting to the database.
OR
2. Using sql server 2000 user management, and create logins for every user. The groups, Read/Write/delete/update rights are managed trough the sqlserver 2000 system.
thanks in advance
Hello,
i want to configure reporting services on wss 3.0. Everything works fine so far, but there are multiple webapplications in the sharepoint farm and my customer wants only a single sharepoint-webapplication to be configured for Reporting services. As far as i know the installation of Reporting Services addin changes all sharepoint-web.config-files on the server. Is there a way to specify the single webapplication to install RS addin with paramters? Am i missing a thing or is backing up and restoring the web.configs the only thing i can do?
Thanks for your answers

Hi
I want to run a SSIS package, that reads from a flatfile and writes to a SQL2005 DB table, from a webpage created in VS2005.
Basically I keep running into the same error, no matter what settings I use in IIS or the web.config (impersonation on or off) for the specific webpage.
The package loads, get's some variables passed and executes. No DTS errors are triggered. I added an eventlistener to pick up events of the package itself.Outcome:
"Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.PackageConnection manager "*******"SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005.
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.".
"The SSIS package connection manager to SQL2005 is setup to use windows authentication which of course runs fine when ran directly from VS2005 or with dtsexec because it passes my security credentials which have the appropiate rights.
The webpage uses forms authentication and impersonates properly when told to do so in the web.config. (checked)
Somehow no security credentials seem to get passed to or through the ssis package when it's ran.
I've seen many posts on the subject but can't really find a solution to run an SSIS package from a webpage.
Is there any way of running an ssis package from a webpage hosted on a webserver running IIS (5.1)?
At the moment I'm not limited to any setup. I just want to have it working.
Code to load and execute the package:
Try
pkgLocation = _
"*******package.dtsx"
pkg = app.LoadPackage(pkgLocation, Nothing)
pkg.Variables("User::varFileName").Value = ****pkg.Variables("User::CID").Value = **********
pkgResults = pkg.Execute(Nothing, Nothing, EventListener, Nothing, Nothing)Catch ex As DtsException
End Try
The Eventlistener that captures the failure of the logon attempt of the connection manager inside the package:Public Overrides Function OnError(ByVal source As Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.DtsObject, _
ByVal errorCode As Integer, ByVal subComponent As String, ByVal description As String, _ByVal helpFile As String, ByVal helpContext As Integer, _
ByVal idofInterfaceWithError As String) As BooleanDim message As String = source.ToString & subComponent & description
Return False
End Function
Hi,
I have two job J1 and J2, each one has 10 steps. Now I want J2 to be the 11th step of J1 and I did not want manually type all the steps of J2 to be 11-20 step of J2. Is there an easy way through TSQL to do this ?
sp_add_jobstep only works when the step is OS command or a script but not a job
Hi,
Is there any shutdown command in sql that shutdowns the sql server with a single command or statement, as of now I am using the windows shutdown command.
thanks in advance.
bye,
Madhu.
hi friends,
i am new to sqlserver. can anyone tell me how to shutdown the database.
I have my suspicions, but I need some proof ...
Is restarting a Windows OS box without first stopping the MSSQL service comparable to a shutdown with nowait command? I know that MSSQL will recover, but wouldn't it recover more nicely if it was shutdown on its own terms prior to the box shutting down? OR. Since it's a Windows service does the OS *know* to stop the service gently, allow the engineto place checkpoints on every db and then shut down the OS?
I've googled plenty and cannot find an exact answer. Lots say it's fine to do - doesn't mean it's right ;)
Thanks!
hi,
for the last six months or so my pc has been shutting down all applications for no apparent reason when a 'low virtual memory' bubble appears. I have removed dozens of items, such as games, image editos; all programmes that require a lot of memory but it is no good. Every 40mins or so the pc decides to shut everything down and where it is impossible to start any further applications, unless I log off and on or shut down the pc myself. I really am fed up with this, its so annoying. Is it because of a virus or do I still have too much on my pc?
insaneolly
I have an SSIS package that looks for the existence of a file (using Konesans file watcher) on the network to begin processing. I am trying to find a way to terminate/shutdown the entire process if that file is not out there by say 7:30 AM. I think I could set a timeout on the filewatcher task, but was hoping there was another tool I could use. (If the process had to be restarted late a timeout would still countdown the same period wouldn't it? We'd still need the job to stop by 7:30.)
More background. The package, once deployed, will be called from a command line script that is started by a scheduled task normally, or manually in the event of late availability.
Thanks,
Rog
I am just trying to find a good article on the process SQL goes through when shutting down and starting up, so far I have not found anything definitive on Google. I am assuming a checkpoint is invoked and committed transactions are written to disk, while uncommitted are rolled back, but I would like an official textual description of what happens.
View 0 Replies View RelatedI want to install SP2 for SQL 2012, but I am not sure how my instance would be affected.
I want to know if the instance will go down for any amount of time during the update? I can schedule a server reboot after hours, but don't want to apply the service pack if it will take the instance offline at any point.
Currently i am using SQL server 2005. Since the begining i am facing sqlserver service shutdown problem. Normally it happens in every 2-3 days and sometimes happens twice a day. It halts all the banking operation. After starting MSSQL SERVER service, the system goes online.
Following is the error message recorded in the event viewer.
---------------
SQL Server is terminating because of fatal exception c0000005. This error may be caused by an unhandled Win32 or C++ exception, or by an access violation encountered during exception handling. Check the SQL error log for any related stack dumps or messages. This exception forces SQL Server to shutdown. To recover from this error, restart the server (unless SQLAgent is configured to auto restart).

Please tell me what steps i should take to resolve it.

I have a problem with an instance of SQL Server that refuses torespond to a shutdown request. I've managed to shutdown the SQLManager and DTC services but the sqlservr.exe process is permanentlyin a "Stopping" state.I cannot logon to the instance to issue a SHUTDOWN WITH NOWAITcommand. Short of rebooting the entire server, is there a way I canforce the process to end?Tony
View 3 Replies View RelatedWhile working on my Visual C# 2005 Express programs, I will sometimes open SQL 2005 Express to look at the database. Then I will disconnect the database and exit the SQL Server Management Studio Express.
Then when I run my Visual C# 2005 program the next time, I will always get this error message.
"Cannot open user default database. Login failed...."
Here is a copy of my connection string

tcrConn.Open();
The error is being generated when "tcrConn.Open()" is being executed. This is line 27 of my program.
My question is: Am I shutting SQL 2005 Express down wrong when I go in and look at the database. The SQL 2005 Express is located on the same computer that I am writing my program on.

I have had two production servers shut down this week due to Error 3449: SQL Server must shut down in order to recover a database (database ID 1). The database is either a user database that could not be shut down or a system database. Restart SQL Server. If the database fails to recover after another startup, repair or restore the database.
Previous to the shutdown I received multiple Error 3314 & 602: Could not find an entry for table or index with partition ID 491897996509184 in database 2. This error can occur if a stored procedure references a dropped table, or metadata is corrupted. Drop and re-create the stored procedure, or execute DBCC CHECKDB.
Also, Error 9001: During undoing of a logged operation in database 'msdb', an error occurred at log record ID (838:208:1). Typically, the specific failure is logged previously as an error in the Windows Event Log service. Restore the database or file from a backup, or repair the database.
Does anyone have an idea why I have begun receiving these error messages? I have run dbcc checkdb on Master and msdb and they do not show any problems.
Hello:I am doing this small experiment on SQL Injection, and appearantly, I was asked to do the shutdown thing, which I have read about, but don't have a single idea how how to start.Well, basically, I am still confused about a few things:1. Do I need to create a stored procedure first, before I start hacking (shutting down the SQL Server)? Or can I just use a normal User Table?2. I understand that the clause "shutdown with nowait" only allows the sysadmin and serveradmin to do so, so is there anyway a hacker makes himself a sysadmin or serveradmin?3. And I read that only with the login user: "sa", you can perform that action. But in my company, its sql login is not "sa", it's something else, so can I do anything about it?Well, that's all for now. So, actually, I have a project that first requires the user to login and must provide password. (Since I am doing experiment on SQL Injection, thus, it is vunerable). It connects to the sql server to match if the user name entered exists on the table.I hope this information is enough to help anyone to help me hahahahaha.... crossed my finger, though.Thanks in advance.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI have SQL Server 2014 Enterprise Edition with a number of in-memory tables sitting in my database.When server is restarted it takes many hours to recover my database if there was data in these in-memory tables before shutdown.As a result, I need to clean up in-memory tables every time before server instance shutdown. This is really annoying and requires extra prescriptive actions for support team. Can I have DDL server/database level trigger to catch shutdown event and clean my data before instance goes down?

I have an auto exec stored procedure that needs to complete successfully or:
- the server should shutdown, or
- disable remote connections
Officially I cannot issue a Shutdown from a Stored Procedure. In addition, I can't see how to programatically disable remote connections.
Got this situation, trying to do Use SignleMode to recover my handing db, after that lost ldf (and physically too). Tried all things thru SSMS and scripts (below) that I know with no result, is there anything else I can try to recover it, I don't need log file.
An exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch. (Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo)
Could not open new database 'MyLostDB'. CREATE DATABASE is aborted.
File activation failure. The physical file name "C:xxxMyLostDB.ldf" may be incorrect.
The log cannot be rebuilt because there were open transactions/users when the database was shutdown, no checkpoint occurred to the database, or the database was read-only. This error could occur if the transaction log file was manually deleted or lost due to a hardware or environment failure. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 1813)

Hi,
I'm using SQL Server 7.0. I have a job which runs DTS packages (1 package per step). When a task fails within my DTS package, I'd like an error returned for that step in the job thus stopping the job and not starting up the next step (DTS package) in the job. As it stands right now, if a task fails within the DTS package, that step in the job still returns a successful completion. Has anyone seen this before and is there something I can do to get the DTS to send a failure for that step in the job?
Thanks in advance,
Darrin
I am going to be moving multiple databases to a new server. Everything should go smooth, but I need to change a lot of the DTS packages that reference the old servername and replace it with the databases DNS record.
Is there an easy way to get a list of which dts reference the old server explicitly (not using database DNS)?
Thanks.
Hi,
I'm from Argentina, I'm running SQL Server 2005 Express. I can connect to SQL Server via Management Studio and see all my db but I don't have acces to them !!

Any ideas??

View 6 Replies View RelatedHello,
Can anybody tell me how many steps it's possible to put in one job.
The reason I ask is that we have a job that has over 500 steps (import data from Excel file into SQl table) and every time it runs we have different steps failures.
Does fact, that excel file was dropped and recreated, change DTS Id ?
Thank you in advance
Hi,
I am new to replication.
I have to replicate a db on SQL7.0 sp5 .
It's going to be transactionol.
Is there any article which explains everything - where to start from and where to end?
I mean everything step by step.....
TIA.
hello!
A job as a whole can be scheduled.But can a individual job step be scheduled?
thankfully in advance,
Rams.
Here is an interesting problem I can't figure out. I have a job with 6 steps as follows:
Step 1 - Import text file 1
Step 2 - Import text file 2
Step 3 - Delete all data from address tables 1 and 2
Step 4 - Copy data from imported table 1 to address table 1
Step 5 - Copy data from imported table 2 to address table 2
Step 6 - Delete imported taxt file table 1 and 2
Now when I run each of these steps individually, like running the dts packages and stored procedures my self it all works fine and the data in my tables appears to update. Then, when I set the job to run automatically, it says completed and no errors but my data hasn't updated. The job must be doing what it is meant to as it took about 40 seconds which is normal.
Ever seen this problem before?
Hello,
SQL Server 2005 Enterprise and new hardware have been ordered for our department. We currently run SQL Server 2000 (sp4). We have almost 500 DTS packages, 293 Jobs, and 14 user databases with hundreds of objects within.
Is there any documentation out there on how to scrutenize a current system? I have searched, and most of what I can find addresses migration planning with the assumption that the databases, packages, jobs, security, etc are ready to move over. We have a lot to think about before we can do that. We know we have redundancy problems (like View proliferation), table schema issues, obsolete DTS packages and Jobs, and otherwise a host of opportunities to 'clean house' and/or improve. We would really like to get a handle on what we are migrating before we migrate.
If you have any ideas or resources to you feel would be worth looking at, please share.
Thank you for your help!

Generally speaking when you want to optimise an application that relies on a database which is the order of the following optimization techniques
a) optimizing the spread of the pysichal elements of the database on different disks of the server
b) optimizing the use ot the RAM
c) optimizing the SQL
d) opimizing the OS
Thank you,
