For example: SQL Server is installed on a machine and you want to verify its setup to make sure everything is intact, what are the key things you go and look out for?
I have an ASP application mainly connected to one SQL database that works great but now I am trying to add some functionality that requires to connect to another remote SQL server. Till now all is fine except that the remote SQL server is not always online and of course when this happens my ASP application stops with the following error:
Error Type: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server (0x80004005) [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]Specified SQL server not found.
in my Global.asa I setup my session variables for DSN connections and in my pages I call my SQL connection as follow:
Set Conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") Conn.Open Session("MySQL")
SQL = "my SQL statement here;" Set RS = Conn.Execute(SQL)
Every time the page hits the Conn.Open line I get the error if the remote SQL is not online!!!
Is there a way I can check a sort of returned error code holding the connection status before getting to the Conn.Open line???
I posted this to the ms sql clustering news group, but I thought I'dpost it here just in case someone here knew the answser. This problemhas had me baffled for 5 months, and I'm not seeing any supportarticles from Microsoft on it, yet. Anyone here got a clue?About 5 months ago, I posted a query to this group after experiencingfailures with my database maintenance plans (during the verify phase)that run on SQL Clusters on Windows 2003(http://groups-beta.google.com/group...9b?dmode=source)I was re-posting this in hopes that someone knows of a fix besidescoding a home-brew verify step in to the backup job to check the file'sintegrity?Thanks,TW
I inherited some SQL 2005 server boxes with NO CDs to be found...Is there any easy way to verfiy if these SQL boxes were trial edtions or full licensed production version...?
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.
Trying to upgrade a 6.5 to a 2K. Running SQL Agent from an admin account, admin account active as admin on both 6.5 machine and 2K machine, but I can not get the upgrade past the second screen, where I get the error message: Unable to connect to export server, please verify that you are an NT Administrator on that machine.
Once complete, "select SERVERPROPERTY('LicenseType')" returns DISABLED, but I expected that it would return PER_SEAT.
Thankfully, after the upgrade it does show EDITION=Standard Edition.
Questions:
1. How do I verify the license installed is the Client Access License of 5?
-- SQL Server 2005 does not seem to have the same SQL Licence control panel as did SQL 2000. It is not listed under Control Panel -> Licensing (only thing listed is 'Windows Server') nor under Administrator Tools -> Licensing.
2. How do you add CALs or change license type in SQL 2005?
-- I was also puzzled that I was not asked during setup of the license mode and/or number of licenses ( I did not get this on a fresh install of SQL 2005 SE either ).
I got through the installation hoops for SQLEXPRESS Reporting Services in Vista and set up the default configurations in Report Services Configuration. I can explore the default directory for "Reports" in IIS7, but I can't browse in IE. I get the "The report server is not responding. verify that the report server..." message in the browser. This is after I migrated the app per the initial http 500 error using the preferred method - %systemroot%system32inetservAPPCMD.exe migrate config "Default Web Site/Reports".
I'm running Vista Ultimate, VS2005, SQLEXPRESS SP2. I've tried running IE as admin and also I've disabled UAC from gpedit.msc - ...Windows SettingsSecurity SettingsLocal PolicySecurity Options and unchecking UAC.

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 haven't written any .net database updates before. I wrote the following code for a visual web developer application and it appears to work. There is no close function or anything.

Hi, all! I'm really confused about how to run a query on the database to check to see the CustomerID filed value already exists in the database. If it’s true, I want to display a message: “Valid� the user to proceed with the next steps Else Display the customer number doesn’t exist in the database, and cancel. I tried all sorts of things and I just can't get it to do it. Hopefully you can help. Thank you
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 need to SELECT something from a database that has a UNIQUEIDENTIFIER (GUID) field,
If the number is wrong (has some other than A-Z 0-9) than the ASP page just freaks out and gets "error converting from a character string to uniqueidentifier"
How can I check that the GUID is OK before I SELECT ? this is the number format: {7A9B5F81-4936-4A31-B4E2-9168AAB75A0}
I tried to cast this "error" number with no successs: "WHERE Deceased_ID = cast('"& "---------4936-4A31-B4E2-9168AAB75A0" &"' as uniqueidentifier)"
I am working on sql integrating with Hybris. Most of you are not aware of hybris as it was a new technology.
In hybris we will create some classes and in those classes we will insert some tables. These tables will be automatically inserted into the sql server. No need to manually insert them the hybris structure will insert it. So my doubt is, how can we find out whether all the records have been inserted into sql database or not how we can check that.
Is there any way?? We have those classes in wich we can see which tables are there. Or else from the data model itself we can see what are the tables avilable or shud be inserted into sql thru hybris.
Can we check by giving all the table names in a single query?? or is there any other way to find out. If we can check by giving all the table names in single query how we need to give it.

I need to write a stored procedure to verify that a table exists andalso that the user executing the stored procedure has access to thespecified table.Any user can call this publicly available procedure and pass a databasename, an owner name and a table name as parameters. The procedurereturns success if the table exists and the user has access to it, orfails if he doesn't. Here's a simplified version of what I have, butI'm wondering if there's a better way.
