Hey, Everyone - I have downloaded two of the sample databases and get the following error when I attempt to open them:
Unable to open the physical file "c:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDATAAssets_Maintenance_log.ldf". Operating system error 2: "2(The system cannot find the file specified.)". (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 5120)
So what am I doing wrong? The install of these sample databases is simple and straight-forward.
I have installed MS SQL Server 2014. When I try to attach the pubs database that I downloaded, I'm getting an error saying that its non-release version (539) is not supported by this version of SQL Server.
My question is: Is there a way that I can either get an updated version of the database from Microsoft, or update the one I have?
I have installed SQL Express 2005 together with VS 2005. After a while I found out that the sample databases (Northwind and Pubs) were missing, so I installed them. According to the 'Readme', which comes with the installation I could choose between attaching the db to the Server or running a SQL script.
Neither works. I've read this link about remote connections (http://blogs.msdn.com/sqlexpress/archive/2005/05/05/415084.aspx). My development machine is just a local single computer and I still get this error message:
'An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.'
I' ve opened TCP/IP and Named Pipes and I get the same result when trying to connect from the Server Explorer in VS.
Hello. I have a little problem . I have SQL Server Express 2005 installed on my machine. As well as SQL Server Management Studio. For some practice, I also installed the AdventureWorks sample database and attached it to the Server. When I open SQL Server Management Studio it's right there, in the Object Explorer, sitting nicely along with the master database and so on. Now, I have recently installed Visual C# Express 2008, in order to explore this exiting new thing called LINQ (Language Integrated Query) . To do so, I created a new Project (say, WPF or Console application), and once the project is up and running it would be nice to attach some data to it so we can query that data and learn about LINQ. There is a problem, however. On the main menu, I click on Data-Add new data source, choose Database, click on New Connection and the Add Connection window comes up. As a data source, I specify Microsoft SQL Server Database file. For a database file name, I navigate to MSSQL.1/Data and in that folder, there it is, the AdventureWorks file. Now, here is the rub. When I try to attach this file, I get a window telling me that I don't have permission to open this file! Contact the file owner or administrator! How about that?! Can anyone help? It would be very much appreciated! Thanks.
I'm looking for sample database for data mining in SQL Server 2005. In my project I need to use all algorithms provided by SQL Server 2005. I know that we have "SQL Server 2005 Samples and Sample Databases" on microsoft.com site, but there are only AdventureWorks data sets. I need sth less popular, but similar.
I have found http://www.kdnuggets.com/datasets/index.html and others, but I don't see data sets good for multidimensional analysis.
The origin of data may be natural or artificial, it doesn't matter. I don't have to generate my own data, because I had to discover new knowledge, that will be surprising to me.
There are two instances: SQL2005 and SQL2005Express on two different units. While there is Visual Studio 2005 Team Edition also installed on the units have not attempted these component installs through either yet. Have spent the better part of two days, following all the directions having searched help locally, online, technet,and applied their advice respectively. While I've taken out the old instances, downloaded updated ones in both my SQL Server instances they do not show as installed under Programs->SQL Server (whichever instance)->Tutorials ...However they do show installed in Control Panel and they can be found via Explorer (AdWorks DBCI+AdWorks BICI and Express instance on the other unit. Have also download SP2 and installed it, but this has proved of no help. @ My wits' end, any help will be appreciated.
What are the AdventureWorksDBCI.ms and AdventureWorksBICI.msi used for? I try to run it, but it return the message "Another version of this product is already installed" and ask me remove the old version of this product. Anybody know what I should remove?
I have downloaded and run all the .msi's for the sample databases. To install them I am suppose to use "SQL Server 2005 Setup, you need to click the Advanced button....". I don't seem to have a "SQL Server 2005 Setup" - did the docs revert back to SQL Server rather than SQL Express or what ???
Hi, i read article on how to install the AdventureWorks on my PC, basically i downloaded the sample db from microsoft website, but after i install several times, i seems cant get to see it in my sql server 2005, please assist on this, i have been craking head for this. Thanks :)
Hi, I am developing a small asp.net application where I read from a readonly omnis database via odbc then dependant on user input write records to a second database.My first idea was to use an odbc connection to Omnis database and write to ms sql database. There is quite a few queries that need to be made to the Omnis database and I am binding a datagrid to the MS Sql server database. I was hoping to use stored procedures to update the mssql tables. So there will be much opening and closing of connections. Should I go down that road or should i think of using an Access database, with linked table to the Omnis database, then only one connection needs to be made. And I can store my information in the Access database tables. Thanks.
I'm new to databases as you probably can tell. A friend sent me three data bases, which in my mind should have been one database with all the tables included, but he didn't. So my question is, can you pull info from two databases in the same query?
I write the query acessing one database and the result chart must depend on a where predicate based on accessing tables in another database. If this isn't possible, how do I get the tables I need together, that presently reside in differing databases?
Hi everyone, First of all I'd like to say I'm new to the forums, and in fact new to ASP.net. I've had a couple of applications running in VB.net for the last year or so that I now am looking to move on and into ASP.net (main reason is to do with implementation to remote sites in foreign countries). I'm currently following through the "Working with data and ASP.net 2.0" walkthrough on this site, which I must say has been a great help. I'll start with the background stuff first I have my main database on an SQL server. I also have 2 other databases on there - Customer and Employee. The reason for these are that they are shared amongst my VB applications and I kept them as seperate databases so that one database is all that needs to be administered and maintained, and these changes are then seen on both apps (takes away redundant data as well). In my main database, main table, is a field called CustomerID. This value relates to the CustomerID in the Customer table. In my VB app all I do is have the user select a customer name, and then the customer ID value is copied to the CustomerID field of my main table when inserting / updating a row. This is simply accomplished with 2 SQL connections and 2 dataAdapters. I also use 2 dataSets - one for Customer, one for WorkRequests (the main database)... I use ComponentOne stuff so that my grid will show the CustomerName instead of the CustomerID etc, and the same applies when I use my Employee database - I run many dataAdapters to this for things such as Account Manager, Technologist, Creator, UpdatedBy etc etc. Now, I'm new to VS 2005 - my apps were created in VS 2003 and .net 1.1. Can I easily re-create my apps in ASP.net? My primary goal at the moment is to make sure I can load a row, and display the "lookup" values instead of the "integer" value. As my tables are in seperate databases, I would like to know the best way of accomplishing this, if it is of course possible. Help and advice much appriciated. Kind Regards, Luke
Hello all. I have just built another PC (New PC)and have it connected to myOriginal PC via a LAN. I have my SQL Server 2000 installed on the OriginalPC. Both PCs use WinXP Pro OS. I believe I now have to install the ClientTools on the New PC but after that, how do I access the SQL Server that ison the Original PC. The SQL Server is setup with mixed (both WindowsAuthentication and SQL Server Authentication). Just how do I use the SQLQuery Analyzer that I just installed on the New PC to connect to andretreive data from the SQL Databases which are on the Original PC? Thanksin advance for any help, Jim.
I am trying to determine if it is possible to add transaction support for a SSIS package. Here are the basic tasks:
Read New/Updated records from SQL Server Update changed records in Access Insert new records into Access Update new records in SQL Server with Access key assigned on insert in previous step Reset dirty_flag
I would like to wrap a transaction around this. If the package fails in the task that updates sql server with the Access key, the next time it runs, it duplicates the new records in Access because it did not finish the process. Is it possible to have a transaction wrap this entire process so I can undo the inserts to Access if I fail any subsequent tasks?
I've written this stored proc, which have to collect records in one table in several databases. These tables contains very few records (1 to 10 max). In SQL Server standard edition, this stored proc is executed instantaneously. But in the Express, it could take 1 minute.
Is there a solution to this problem ?
Thanks in advance,
Best regards,
Guy

I am using VS 2005 to develop a Pocket PC 2003 application and for some reason I dont have the ability to assign my datasource to a SQL Mobile Database?
When opening Server Explorer, right clicking Data Connection, Add New Data Source, Change Data Source, the only options I get are
Microsoft Access Database File Microsoft ODBC Data Source Microsoft SQL Server Microsoft SQL Server Database File Oracle Database <other>
I was trying to follow the tutorial
Step by Step: Developing a SQL Mobile Application with Visual Studio 2005 and SQL Server 2005 (http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnppcgen/html/med302_msdn_sql_mobile.asp) and in that tutorial when they do the exact same thing it shows a screen shot that also lists 'Microsoft SQL Server Mobile Edition'
Any ideas why I dont have that option? FYI, I have SQL Server 2005 and have installed SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition.
I have several database files, all in the same directory. I want to write SQL statements that access two databases at once. For example, if only one database would be involved, I would write:
SELECT Test_Source_ID_column, Data_column INTO Test_Destination_table FROM Test_Sources_table The above query copies two columns (Test_Source_ID_column and Data_column) from Test_Sources_table into a brand new table called Test_Destination_table. Now the above query is fine for both the old and new tables being in the same database. But what if Test_Sources_table is in file Old.dbf and I want the new table Test_Destination_table to be in New.dbf? Both Old.dbf and New.dbf are in the same directory. Therefore, there is no security issue about using ......etcpasswords. I should therefore be able to use relative paths. So, I also want to know how I can do that select on two databases in the same directory without typing long, long paths. Is there a way to do queries that access multiple database files (all database files being in the exact same directory) AND use relative paths or no paths (and certainly not type a full path)? NOTE 1: I'm using SQLEXPRESS, therefore do not have the SQL Server 2005 tools. I have Visual Studio 2005 Developer Edition with its tools. NOTE 2: One table is accessed through ODBC. The other table is accessed through SQLEXPRESS.
I have around 5 databases with same structure used to store data for different locations and services.
I have created an intermediate database which will have all the stored procedures to access data from above 5 databases.
My queries are common to all the databases. so,I would like to pass database name as an argument to my stored proc and execure query on specified database.
I tried this doing using "USE Databasename " Command. but it says ...We can not use "USE command " in stored proc or triggers. so ..what i did is ..
Based on our database infrastructure, we need to secure our SQL databases. The security issue concerns on allowing a limited number of Domain Admin users to access the SQL databases. We tried certain ways, based on the documents in the Microsoft web site, but we couldn€™t reach to the point of preventing the Domain Admin users accessing the SQL databases.
We have a system that uses 3 databases, one for Membership db standard MS membership only the application has access to that data, one with User Data which we would like to make multi-tenant using Schema-Separation, and a third read-only reference db which is Common Market data for all users.we anticipate Tenant numbers in the thousands.Current we have multiple queries which create joins between the Main db and the Reference database using something like
Selec S.*, M.ScheduleDate, M.substation from Sites S left outer join Market.dbo.MarketUnit M where S.MarketUnitID = M.MarketUnitID
i'm planning to have a new schema for each Tenant on the Main Database, so I would create a Schema T1 for the first customer, a user T1User with access to T1 schema. and grant T1User access to Market.dbo. My First question is are there any concerns about the above T1User setup? My second question is, are there any tools which would automate the setup of the multi-tenant with schema separation, or should I just script the whole Main Database schema creation and replace schema name globally and then execute the script?
My Third question, how about upgrade and updates... currently using VS to compare dev/qa/prod database to identify changed which need to be promoted, and pushing updates... this could be a big pain to promote code to thousands of Schemas. grantedwe will likely keep the overall number of schemas spread over different SQL servers.
Books online mention the existence of sample code for several custom tasks, including the one mentioned in the title. But, when I try to find this code in the location mentioned it is nowhere to be found.
I have run a search on the rest of my drive and come up empty.
I am running dts in Sql Server 2005 management studio from Management, Legacy and data Transformation Services.
Once the dts has run, I get this error message "Error Source : Microsoft Data Transformation Services (DTS) Package Error Description : Error accessing Windows Event Log."
Im trying to use VB.net 2005 to write a sample app to access a DB. Are there any samples for this and any samples of how I go about making the DB in the first place?
I have been using the reportserver function of sql 2005 for some time now and I decided to try the rsexecutionlog sample. I went through the installation and everything seemed to go fine until I executed the job. The job failed so I manually ran the dts package with configuration file and found that the error is from the parameters column query and reads like this:
"[Derived Column [979]] Error: The "component "Derived Column" (979)"
failed because truncation occurred, and the truncation row disposition
on "output column "ParametersStr" (999)" specifies failure on
truncation. A truncation error occurred on the specified object of the
specified component. "
"Task Update Parameters failed"
I read the query and it reads as such:
SELECT ExecutionLogID, Parameters
FROM ExecutionLogs WITH (NOLOCK)
WHERE Parameters IS NOT NULL AND
Datalength(Parameters) > 0
I checked both the source and destination columns and they have the same character type settings of ntext and same lengths. So I don't understand why it thinks there is a truncation occurring. Please help.
This is a sample code from an MSDN help site. I copied it and pasted into an open new query. I tried to execute it and got two errors:

The errors are:

Msg 16916, Level 16, State 1, Line 9 A cursor with the name 'tnames_cursor' does not exist
The database is connected. Table Person.AddressType is a part of it.
after i try to build the web application "Web Development - Data Entry Form" i get the following error message. I already change the variable username to system which is defined in Machine.Config.
The Error messega is like following: SQL Server does not exist or access denied. Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

This has been driving me crazy for a while now. Any help would be greatly appreciated!
The first part of the install.sql ran ok, but it chokes on the CREATE ENDPOINT line: is this really a limitation on the Express edition or did I miss something on installation or configuration?
Msg 7878, Level 16, State 1, Line 3
This "CREATE ENDPOINT" statement is not supported on this edition of SQL Server.
