When To Use Fully Qualified Names ([database].[schema].object)

Dec 29, 2006

I wihsh to discuss whether to use fully qualified names:
[database].[schema].object
of objects to operate (create, query..) on is good or not?

If someone change order of sql code blocks in my script - this may cause
lose of it's context (like: use master / use <mydb>..). I wish to have my
sript independed on changes like this and always produce correct result.


Does using full name make use of 'use <db>' statement unnecessary?

Schema, Owner And Fully Qualified Name

Mar 27, 2008

I have a database that has been upgraded from SQL 200 to 2005. The database was owned by 'Joe' and all objects were also owned by 'Joe'. In SQL 2000 when Joe logged in he could simply issue 'select * from table' and would get results.

The upgraded db now has a user Joe and a schema Joe. All objects now belong to the schema Joe. Joe the user has his default schema set to Joe and he is the owner of the schema. When Joe logs in and tries to 'select * from table' he gets an invalid object. He can 'select * from joe.table'.

How can I set it up so that the objects are still owned by the schema Joe and a simple 'select * from table' works when user Joe logs in? I was convinced that is he owned the schema and this was his default schema it should work.

Thanks

Static Analysis Of Scripts Not Containing A SQL Object Fully Qualified Name?

Mar 21, 2008

Hello everyone...

Our team has a DBA governing body that refuses to accept any T-SQL script that our dev group writes where fully qualified names of the objects aren't used. These non fully named objects in scripts just aren't accepted in their world.

So, all the scripts the developers now have to write must have fully qualified names in them. Of course, the Query analyser in Managment Studio could care less about object names as long as ambiguity is not found. So, I need some sort of Static Code analysis of these scripts that my team creates in order to hand them over to our DBA's to run.

The DBA's intend to make this inspection a manual process (they have time to kill I guess)... but my team doesn't have that luxury. It is not easy to ensure all scripts have this qualification in them with some many of them being written.

Does anyone know of any algorithim, tool, or options that could help me detect the presence of non-fully qualified names in T-SQL scripts?

Thanks for any ideas...

Not Fully Qualified Files

May 24, 2006

Hi all,

I need to create flat file connection managers. The connection Manager editor forces me to use fully qualified file names. Is there a possibility to use unqualified file names, because I need to reference to files in different directories with the identical file strcture.

Any Ideas?

How To Extract The Filename From A FULLY QUALIFIED NAME?

Nov 29, 2007

hi folks,

i am using foreach loop to load a whole load of files.
but these files are placed into various folders and with distinctive names.

each file is name is certain conventions that imply what sort of data is held in it. like

marketing_extract_20071204.csv
customers_extract_20071224.csv

but within the foreach loop i have a variable with the FULLY QUALIFIED NAME (FQN)as in:

Y:data_filesmarketing_extract_20071204.csv

thus i would like to find out how i can extract the filename from the FQN?

could i use a derived column expression or a script task?


many thanks for your assistance,

Nicolas

Are there any perfmonace or query optimization limitations or issues that arise when issueing a fully qualified query across multiple databases on the same Instance of SQL Server. In other words are all features of query optimization fully supported in queries that span databases on the same Instance.

Sqlcmd With Trusted Connection And IP Address Or Fully Qualified Hostname

Nov 9, 2006

The command sqlcmd seems to fail when using trusted connection and an IP address or a fully qualified hostname. For example:

sqlcmd -E -S nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn

where nnn.nnn.nnn.nnn is the real IP address of the machine, or

sqlcmd -E -S hostname.domain.com

where hostname.domain.com is the fully qualified hostname of the machine, gives the error:

Msg 18452, Level 14, State 1, Server 380GX280B05, Line 1
Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server c
onnection.

On the other hand, sqlcmd -E -S 127.0.0.1 works, and so does sqlcmd -E -S hostname, or sqlcmd -E -S tcp:hostname,1433.

This is on a clean machine, with SQL Server 2005 freshly installed as Administrator with mixed authentication, and the test runned also by Administrator.

Is it normal or is it a bug?

Thanks.

One Or More Of The Server Network Addresses Lacks A Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN).

Jun 11, 2007

Hello Guys,

I had been trying to solve this error with no success :



One or more of the server network addresses lacks a fully qualified domain name (FQDN). Specify the FQDN for each server, and click Start Mirroring again.

The syntax for a fully-qualified TCP address is:
TCP://<computer_name>.<domain_segment>[.<domain_segment>]:<port>



I had installed three instances on my local machine to test Data base mirroring :

Principal : running SQL Developer Instance

Mirror : running SQL Developer Instance .

Witness : Running SQL Express.



Database mirroring already enabled using startup flag : -T1400



i even tried to configure it with out a witness but still have the same error .



I used the follwoing server name in the mirroring wizard(not localhost) :

Principal : TCP://Ali-laptop:5022

Mirrored : TCP://Ali-laptop:5023

Witness : TCP://Ali-laptop:5044



whats the problem guys?!

Using Qualified Names Of Databases

Apr 29, 2004

I have databases a1 , a2 , a3 , a4 ... an.
Each has a table t1 .

I am writing a stored proc which compares the t1 table between any given two databases.
I want to pass the database name as a variable ..
so the SPROC looks like

exec sp_comparetable 'a3' , 'a7'

My question is , inside the SPROC ,how do I refer to the tables in the a3 and a7 databases.


Thanks,

Qualified Table Names

Jul 20, 2005

I have a quick question on how to qualify table names as it relates to"dbo" vs. user names. Suppose that I am a user named "dwuser1", andthat I need to create a table named "dw_stage_1". Do I use dbo as in"dbo.dw_stage_1" or do I use "dwuser1.dw_stage_1" for the qualifiedtable name? Are both OK? If so, what would be the implications ofeach?

SELECT Of A Table - WITHOUT SCHEMA QUALIFIED

Sep 12, 2005

Posted - 09/12/2005 : 15:16:05
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Hi

I have a schema XXX. This schema owns a set of tables say XXX.A, XXX.B and XXX.C.

I have a login XXX mapped to the user XXX.

When I connect to the SQL Server using login XXX and execute the query.

Select * from A, it throws be an error saying that"Invalid Object Name A".

Now when I modify the select statement specifying the schema it works. i.e. Select * from XXX.A

In the former case, is it not that SQL Server tries to search for the table in the current user's account and then if it not available it look's in the dbo's account.

HOw can I make a select without specifying the schema ?

I am using SQL Server 2005.

Thanks & Regards
Imtiaz

SQL Best Practices Analyzer Rule: Use Of Schema Qualified Tables/Views

Dec 17, 2005

SQL BPA says the following:"One or more objects are referencing tables/views withoutspecifying a schema! Performance and predictability of theapplication may be improved by specifying schema names.""When SQL Server looks up a table/view without a schemaqualification, it first searches the default schema and then the'dbo' schema. The default schema corresponds to the currentuser for ad-hoc batches, and corresponds to the schema of astored procedure when inside one. In either case, SQL Serverincurs an additional runtime cost to verify schema binding ofunqualified objects. Applications are more maintainable andmay observe a slight performance improvement if objectreferences are schema qualified."How important is to specify the schame (dbo. in my case) instored procedures? Will it really improve performance if I goand fix each object that is missing "dbo."?The problem is I have thousands and thousands of themwith no schemas. Before I invest a lot of time fixing themI am trying to determine if it's really worth it or not?Thank you

SELECT Permission Denied On Object 'TableID', Database 'Database', Schema 'dbo'

The error message:

An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)
Query execution failed for data set 'TestID'. (rsErrorExecutingCommand)
For more information about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors

The log file reads:

---> Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.ReportProcessingException: Query execution failed for data set 'TestID'. ---> System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: SELECT permission denied on object 'TableID', database 'Database', schema 'dbo'.

***Background***

General Users got an error message when trying to access any reports we have created.
All admin have no problems with the reports. Users (Domain Users) are given rights (Browser) to the reports and the Data Sources (Browser) and yet cannot view the reports.

An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)
Cannot create a connection to data source 'DS2'. (rsErrorOpeningConnection)
For more information about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors


I'll add this from the report logs...

w3wp!processing!1!3/20/2007-11:43:25:: e ERROR: Data source €˜DS2€™: An error has occurred. Details: Microsoft.ReportingServices.ReportProcessing.ReportProcessingException: Cannot create a connection to data source €˜DS2€™. ---> System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Cannot open database €œDatabase€? requested by the login. The login failed.
Login failed for user €˜DOMAINUsername€™.

The user has rights via a local group to the report and data source (Browser rights) and the local group has been added as a SQL login.


I gave rights to the databases themselves instead of just to SQL and the error changed (Ah-ha...progress, but why!?!?)

The Select Statement Was Denied On The Object 'table Name' , Database 'db Name', Schema 'dbo'

Nov 12, 2007



Hi,

I have a select statement running on the client machine linking to different tables in 1 database. All with the same schema. When I ran it, i had this error. I had trial and error, removing 1 table at a time until i hit the one which is causing it. when i removed it, everything's ok. i just wonder if all the tables were using dbo schema what is causing this particular table to throw this error?

The SELECT Permission Was Denied On The Object 'tblName', Database 'dbName', Schema 'dbo'

Nov 9, 2007

Hi,

I'm in need of a few more pointers when it comes to SQL Server 2005 Security setup for accessing a database through IIS web services. There's loads of great advise in these forums which I've followed so pls forgive me if I've missed a post that finally resolves this. I know I'm so close but it feels so very far...

Anyhow, here's the set up:
- Server 2003 / SQL Server 2005 / .NET 2.0 / Visual Studio 2005 / Client XP PC

The story so far:
- Built an ASPX website in VS2005 on a client PC that connects to a SQL2005 db. No probs during development.
- Copied website to WS2005 & configured IIS accordingly. No probs browsing non-db webpages.

The problem:
As soon as I browse to a page that extracts data from the db I get the following error message..


[SqlException (0x80131904): The SELECT permission was denied on the object 'tbl_location', database 'SmartDMA', schema 'dbo'.]

...plus a whole load of code that I've seen plastered over lots of forums.

My configurations:
- The website is in the default SQL Application Pool that has the identity set to 'Predifed: Network Service' (as I'd previously has a similar error; SQLException (blah blah): Login failed for user '(null)'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection)

- IIS Website ASP.NET is v2.0.50727
- Website Authentication Methods / Enable Anonymous Access (ticked) Username: IUSR_SERVERNAME Password: *********. Intergration Windows Authentication (ticked).
- SQL Server Mngt, Secuirty / Logins / NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE lists the db in question with dbo as the Default Schema & public ticket as the db role membership.
- connectionString="Data Source=SERVERNAME;Initial Catalog=DBNAME;Integrated Security=true" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>


What I've tried already based on forums advise:
- Changing Server Properties to SQL Server & Windows Authentication mode.
- Rather than using Integrated Security I've tried the SQL 'sa' account, but not 100% is I did that right (still got the same error anyway).

The rest of the advise I've read appears to confirm the rest of my settings, but I'm still getting the error.

Can anyone please shed any light on what I'm missing here. Feel free to ask questions on any configuration settings I've missed that may help.

Many thanks in advance..

DTS Data Transform Task: How To Hide DB And Schema Names?

Hi All,

I'm stuck up with a strange problem.
When i try to setup a Transform Data task in DTS, the table drop down shows fully qualified table name.

i.e. <database name>.<schema name>.<table name>

as you can see in the attached screenshot. With this I cant see the full table name and am not able to make the correct selection.

Where can i change the properties so that it displays only the table name?

Schema (owner) Names Not Visible In Shapes On Diagram

Apr 20, 2007

When reverse engineering a SQL Server 2005 database (using VS 2007 Professional), I can't figure out a way to display the schema name in front of the table name in the database diagram. For instance, If I have a table named Person.Type, it just comes over as Type. It knows what the schema is because it's in the properties box for that object. It just doesn't appear in the name on the shape itself. Is there a setting somewhere that I'm missing that will display the schema in the name?

Using Variables For Object Names

Oct 7, 2005

I am writing an sproc for creating a table, but I don't know how I can use parameter values as object names (for example the name of the table needs to be [@sFile1+'_'+@sLinkName+'_'+@sFile2']. It seems that I could concatenate my whole CREATE TABLE string into a single variable and use EXEC to run it, but I'd prefer to be able to do it in the context of the sProc (I read that EXEC always has the current user's permissions). What is a good technique?

CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.CreateLinkTable
@sFile1 varchar(50),
@sFile2 varchar(50),
@sLinkName varchar(50)

AS

CREATE TABLE [@sFile1+'_'+@sLinkName+'_'+@sFile2]

Case Sensitive Object Names?

Mar 19, 2007

My new DB seems to be "case-sensitive". I have a table named Bld_List.

Select * From Bld_List

returns all records in QA. However, if I don't follow the correct case

Select * From bld_list

I get this error: Invalid object name 'bld_list'.

Also, when I try to get rid of some unnecessary records by using this

DELETE
FROM Bld_List
WHERE (PRODUCT IN
(SELECT DISTINCT Product
FROM BldOff_Inv_Daily))

I get this error: Cannot resolve collation conflict for equal to operation.

I imagine I set something up wrong when I first built the DB, but I don't know what to look for.

The 'System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider' Requires A Database Schema Compatible With Schema Version '1'.

Sep 27, 2007

Locally I develop in SQL server 2005 enterprise. Recently I recreated my db on the server of my hosting company (in sql server 2005 express).I basically recreated the tables and copied the data in it.I now receive the following error when I hit the DB:The 'System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider' requires a
database schema compatible with schema version '1'.  However, the
current database schema is not compatible with this version.  You may
need to either install a compatible schema with aspnet_regsql.exe
(available in the framework installation directory), or upgrade the
provider to a newer version.I heard something about running aspnet_regsql.exe, but I dont have that access to the DB. Also I dont know if this command does anything more than creating the membership tables and filling it with some default data...Any other solutions/thought on what this can be?Thanks!
