I have a question on how to change a hyperlink path. I have an ADP that has our scanned files linked to it the path is on SQL server. The problems is that we are migrating sql server and the files to their own seperate server,
\gcfs01databaseBackgroundsSCANNED ACROBAT DOCUMENTS (BACKGROUNDS)SCANNED ACTIVE FILES5630.pdf
The server is called \gcfsql Instead of gcfs01.
does anyone know how we can change the unc path to gcfsql without
\gcfsQLdatabaseBackgroundsSCANNED ACROBAT DOCUMENTS (BACKGROUNDS)SCANNED ACTIVE FILES5630.pdf
Any help would be greatly appreciated

How do I change the file path from C: drive to E:
See attached
I instance where customers want to migrate SQl dB to a new server. I want to change part of the path to lowercase.
The part to be change is always a computer name i.e. ComputernameDatareportA24440 testUser.doc I want to define the computername and the script changes only the computername to lowercase
Using
Update Table
set Path =LOWER(Path) -- etc.
Go
Changes all the path to lowercase,
Note the Computername will always be different depending on the customer. The reason for changing the PCname to lowercase each client can type the PC name in various ways
i.e. Texdom, servicedom, XDB-XDE-46
I need someone that knows something about SQL queries.
I have a client that is running a Database known as ProLaw. It is in part a
document management system for Law Offices.
They have an SQL 2005 database that tracks per client all the documents they
create.
We had to replace there server with new server. The new server is running
sbs2003 and had to have a different Netbios name then the old sbs2000
server. (Small Bus. Server has some weird quirks that make simply using the
same netbios name impossible. Google search it if you don't believe me.)
The database holds in a single column the full network share path to each
document.
A document for example may have had a path of
"\lawwillsbs2000ProlawDocumentsACME wigets Incsmith_deposition.doc"
Different documents may have different names and more subdirectories but the
root path of "\lawwillsbs2000ProlawDocuments" is shared by all.
The new server is named \sbs2003 I need to change
the first part of almost 3000 path statements to the new server. The rest
of the path is unchanged.
I have had several people running prolaw tell me that I should run this
query:
UPDATE Events
SET DocDir=REPLACE(DocDir, '\\lawwillsbs2000', '\\sbs2003')
WHERE EventKind='O'
This doesn't work. Nothing is changed. I'm guessing it is because this
query assumes the value will be ONLY \lawwillsbs2000 I see nothing in here that tells the query that this is only part of the string. No wild card or other marker.
I need some kind of string function here do I not? Anyone know enough to
help me craft a proper query?
Thanks

My WinCE device loads the Windows folder from NAND falsh on start-up and therefore I cannot install SQL into WindowsProgram files.

I want to redirect the logshipping primary backup folder to another drive, how to change the configurations steps to move the primary logship folder to another location within the same server!
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have connected to the SQL Server 2005 instance usign the SQL Server Management Studio; I have changed the default locations for the database and log files. I have also rebooted the machine. When I look in the SQL Server Configuration Manager in the properties for the SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) I see that the data path is still set to the old value and this field is read-only. How can this can changed without going through the registry?

Thank you very much for your kind attention.
I am trying to modify the files path (primary file, log file) of databases, but it looks like I am not able to mofidy their files path directly from the database property dialogue? Would please any experts here give me some ideas on what else can I try to figure it out? Thanks a lot in advance and I am looking forward to hearing from you shortly.

When trying to install Business Contact Manager (BCM) for Outlook 2007, the setup failed and I was refered to a log file in my Local Settings/Temp folder. The log actually says that Business Contact Manager was installed sucessfully! BCM is supposed to install SQL Express 2005 as an instance or as instance if SQL Express is already installed. There is an MSSMLBIZ instance in Services..
Who can I send the Log File to for analysis and the fix feedback?
When I first went into Computer Management and clicked on Services and Applications in the left panel, the error message appeared "Snap-in failed to intialize. Name: SQL Server Configuration Manager CLSID:{CA9F8727-31DF-41D2-975C-887D84903967} This message diappeared when I clicked on Services and Applications again. Under Services, there are 3 SQL services - one is an application that was uninstalled 3-4 weeks ago and I disabled this service. The other 2 are: SQL Server (MSSMLBIZ) and the other one is SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) When I tried to start either of the last 2, the message appeared: Services "Could not start the SQL Server (MSSMLBIZ) service on Local Computer. Error 3: The system cannot find the path specified. Under Program Files/Microsoft SQL Server/MSSGL.1 folder is mostly empty. So, it seems like the Path in the Registry is not valid and that nothing is being installed in the MSSQL.1 folder. If so, how do I fix this?
How do I get the BCM SQL instance to install and run properly? what do the messages in Services mean and how do I resolve these.
Thank you!

Hey everyone,
I'm in the midst of setting up hMailServer on my server and at one point it tells me to enter the name of my database I setup for my email. I entered my database name along with the username and password to access the database. What I'm lost on is the database server address. I thought that would be localhost but I wasn't quite sure and I was hoping that someone might be able to help me with this.
Thanks for any help,

Hey guys,
I uploaded my website from VWD Express to ipower. My database did not work, which I have learned upon some research should have not been a shock to me, but most definetely was. When I contacted tech support they told my that my web.config files were pointing to my local paths. That I should change them and I should be fine. Elsewhere, in the knowledge base I found the strConnect that I am under the impression I need to use.
strConnect = "Provider=SQLOLEDB; Server=SQL-A1; UID=account_username; PWD=account_password; Database=user_db_name" oSQLServer.Connect strServer,strLogin,strPwd
The problem is, I'm a complete newbie, learning as I go and I can't find anything on where or how I insert this into my web.config to correct my paths. IPower will not help with coding. I know my current connection string is in web.config in the appsettings, that's about as far as my knowledge goes.
So, could anyone show me how I go about putting this into my web.config? Examples are very helpful :]
On a side note, I've been reading that this is a common problem among newbies like myself. So, is changing these files actually going to work, or am I wasting my time? Also, before I get knee-deep into it, is the database-publishing kit put out by MS the way to go here?
Thanks for any and all replies, you guys are always awesome.

Hi-
I have installed a SQL 2005 software and created 4 instances and 4 databases on each server namely , Adventureworks , sample , testdb1, testdb2.
After creating these many databases , i was very confused to find out the actual database files in Programfiles directory as each instance was created in a separate directory namely MSSQL.1 , MSSQL.2...etc.
how do i identify the correct database path for sample database in instance3.
is there any system tables or stored proc that i can user to identify this path.

Greetings,I have to admit that I'm still a beginner in the database field, but I'mactively studying, and this is why I will be utterly grateful for theproper, accurate, and wise guidance to the right direction or specificpaths of database studies.I simply want to make my first major database project a "personalknowledge database" or a "personal encyclopedia", so to speak. By this Imean that I want to gather diverse, multi-format bits of knowledge intoa single database divided into major categories, sub-categories, and soon. For example, I want to scan collected articles from newspapers &magazine and save them as images, type hand-written notes into thecomputer and save them as MS Word or Text files, save audio files withsearchable keywords, even save searchable MS OneNote audio & text files,all into directories & sub-directories. Then I want to be able to searchall these files for specific words or subjects; sort them according todate, subject, etc; update, add to or append, edit, or even cut & paste(within) any of those records in the database, which rely on easilycustomizable formats like text & images (in contrast with audio files orOneNote files, for example).I also want to prevent wasting time in the future, by avoidingrepetitive, same-keywords typing for every non-text new entry, like animage or audio file, by having a customizable keyword list open (byright clicking for example), where one could mark all the relevantkeywords for the picture or audio file. Also have a short descriptionfor each one of those entries when needed. And I want to be able to addslick, good-looking graphics to the interface of the database and theforms of the records.Basically, my priorities include: saving time filling the database withknowledge, quickly & accurately finding the future targets of anysearch, presenting the search results in a highly comprehensible &organized form, and a good looking interface & forms for every entry,which are pleasing to the eye and encouraging to study.I already use graphics applications for the "looks" part. So my questionis: what are the technologies or applications that I should learn byheart and use in order to design such a database in the best way? WouldMS Access alone do it all for me? Or should I learn other technologies?I'll be grateful for anyone taking the time to help. Thanks.Sincerely,Yasso"Claiming that God does not exist because there are people suffering anddying is like saying that barbers do not exist because there are peoplewith long hair!

Am I trying something that isn't possible? Should databases always be stored on the server PC running SQL (Express)?

I have a database that I have made with Sql Server 2005 Express. I am building a windows app using this db as the back end. I am using visual C# Express as well.
I found out during this project that I had to detach my database in order to establish a new connection to it using the express editions. I learned that this is a short coming of the Sql Server 2005 Express Edition. So I detached my db. When I reattached my database the name had the path to where the file was in it's name. I don't think I have done anything to cause this. But, obviously something went wrong.I have a jpeg screenshot of this but can't post it in this forum.
I created another small database as a test to see if the same thing would happen again. The database only has one table with two columns. I detached and then reattached it with no problems. It did not get the weird file name that automatically included the path to the file.
Does any one know what is going on with this? Do you know how I can reattach this database and only have the original name(not the path to the file)?
Thanks
Hi, I've to restore a bk into a new DB, because the old one has a lot of devices created on different places and phisical disks.
Im not sure to do that, cause Ive heard some problems with this action.
The old Db has 10 devices of data and 10 devices of log, and I want to create only one device of data (sum of all the data devices) and only one device of log (sum of all log devices)
Is it possible or not?
Tnx a lot!
I have two, probably related, problems:I have a very simple site. It will be used on the local intranet only. I want to use the windows authentication so users do not have to log on. The aspnetdb has been created using the configuration tool. If I use Server Explorer in vs to work on the site on my local machine, I can open aspnetdb, look at its tables, etc. If I use Server Explorer in vs to work on the site on the server, aspnetdb will not open and gives this error message: ..."network path that is not supported for database files"...Other sites on the same server give the same message, but the sites work. I think this is because they can read the file but not write it; but that is a guess. We have tried everything; my head is ready to explode. We are using SQLServerExpress. It resides on the server's C drive (as does our data database). The web site, and hence the aspnetdb are on the F: drive of the same machine. Does SQLServerExpress treat the F: drive as a UNC drive? If so, are we in deep doo doo? I'm at a loss.As far as logging in: If I debug from vs, the login works beautifully both on my local machine and running from the server using vs. Login does not work when accessing the site from iexplorer. Mystified by that one, too. I tried to implement profiles and they crash, too; that led me to consider a write problem.Don't know what to do; any help is appreciated.

Completely new to this stuff, so sorry if I'm asking

there are standard formats for code, errors etc.
OK. When I create a Login.aspx file in VWD Express on my local Hard Disk Drive, the file works and runs correctly, allowing
me to log in etc.

Hello. I am attempting to add a distribution database to an instance of SQL Server on my local PC. I am using SQL 2005 Developer Edition. I am able to set the instance up as a distributor using the following command:
exec sp_adddistributor @distributor = N'computernameinstancename'
I use the following command to create the distribution database:
exec sp_adddistributiondb @database = N'distribution', @data_folder = N'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.2MSSQLData',
@data_file_size = 4, @log_folder = N'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.2MSSQLData',
I get the following error when executing that command:
Msg 14430, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_adddistributiondb, Line 214
Invalid destination path C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.2MSSQLData.
It's not due to permissions on that particular folder. I have tried using other folders, all with the same results. Also, I am an Administrator on the PC, so I have full permissions. I have tried running the SQL Server services as myself and Local System. Same results both times. Co-workers with apparently the same setup are able to create the distribution database without a problem.
Has anybody had this type of problem?
Thanks,
Evan
Hi everyone,
I am working on a Hospital Information System project with a team of 6.Each one of us builds or modifies a part of the system and shares the project over a common repository. The problem here is that we use the absolute path of the database in our connection string. Although the directory structure of our project is the same for each member, since the main project folder itself is stored in different locations on each person's computer (for example, one may have it stored in c:My Documents and the other in d: My Documents), we are forced to modify the connection string manually each time someone else from the team updates the repository with the database. How do we make the path of the database relative so that we don't have to modify the connection string manually each time after receiving an update from the repository?
Your help is greatly appreciated.
While doing the restore of the database is it better to copy the backup file locally and restore or restore from the network path is good option?
What kind of the problems we may get restoring the backup from the network path?
I need a SQL query which lists out directory path from which the database has been restored recently ( i.e backup path ).....
View 2 Replies View RelatedHello,
I would like to deploy a per-machine Express database as part of my VS2005 C# desktop application. The deployment must work with both XP and Vista from the same setup files. I'm not using One-Click installation. I don't want my users to have to configure Express with the Surface Area Configuration tool.
Since the database cannot go in C:Program Files because of Vista ACL issues, I am using COMMONAPPDATACompanyNameAppName as the install path for the database and other user writable application files. In XP this expands to C:Documents and SettingsAll UsersApplication DataCompanyNameAppName and in Vista it is C:ProgramDataCompanyNameAppName. Neither of these paths have write privileges for unprivileged users, so the install program needs to change the write permissions at install time. Right now I am using SetACL ( http://setacl.sourceforge.net/ ), to do that and the install goes fine with write permissions on the companyName folder and it's children for all users.
But I can't connect to the mdf file in my COMMONAPPDATACompanyNameAppName folder. If I am the administrator/installer it works fine, but as an unprivileged user I get different errors, but mostly "Could not login user ...". For debugging, I have also tried installing the database in the "AppFolder" directory (which for my app in both Vista and XP is C:Program FilesCompanyNameAppName) and using "User Instance=true" in the connection string, and the connection is made but (at least on XP) the unprivileged user cannot write to the database because the folder lacks write privileges for that user.
I suppose one thing I could do would be to change the folder/file permissions in the AppFolder, but I am reluctant to do that because I have read that Microsoft does not guarantee that the "Compatibility" feature in Vista for the Program Files directory will be available in future releases/service packs.
So is there a way to do a simple installation/db connection for a per-machine database located in a COMMONAPPDATA path?
Thanks for your help.
Hi,

All of the books I have about Visual Basic 2005 Database Programming, gives examples of connecting to a database on a localhost computer. But what about the connection to a database on a sql server 2005 on a computer wich can only be reached via the internet ? Is that possible without using ASP.NET ?
My problem:
I have a desktop with a sqlserver 2005 database . This desktop is connected with the internet . The IP address is a dynamic IP address.
On my laptop is a ADO.NET 2.0 program that needs to be connected with the database on my desktop.
What kind of address do I have to specify in my connectionstring in order to get connected to the database on my desktop , which can only be reached via the internet ?
I'm I wright to suppose that in the case of a static IP address, all I have to do is put the IP address in the connectionstring in order to get connected with my desktop via the internet? Are there some changings to be made in the settings of the SQL SERVER 2005 on my desktop ? What about the security ?
On the other hand , because the address of my desktop is a dynamic IP address, how do I solve this problem.?
I've heard about a program DynDns that can solve the problem of the dynamic address. Can i use this program together with my ADO.NET program to solve the problem , and how do I specify in this case the address to the database on my desktop in the connectionstring?
Is there someone who has experience with that program and the problem I described here ?
Thanks for the help !!!
