I am calling a procedure that will save a file to PDF. It runs successfully. When I go to look at the PDF, I get a message, "Acrobat reader could not open 'Doc.pdf' because it is either not a support file or because the file has been damaged."
I hope someone can help me with this - I started receiving this error message in the past month or so when I open a csv report and save it as an Excel file in a folder I use on my VPN and in My Documents. It does not show up when I save it to my Desk Top.
I have Microsoft Office Student and Teacher and Office XP Professional installed on my notebook. I tried to uninstall Office XP and it would not let me. Something about a "patch could not be opened......"
Hi all, I am not sure this is the right place to post this, but I could find a better place. I uploaded a document in the SQL Server (image datatype), but I was not able to save file Type since there is no field for that, and cannot change the database. Now I download the saved file. Is there any way to extract file Type from the saved file (like from file header?) and open it with an appropriate program such as doc file with MS Word? Thanks, J
Hello everyone. I have an interesting problem. We have a SQL database with a field that is an image type. In it are records where the image field are text files. What I would like to do is look at these files and stream them line by line and do some processes for each line read. So let's say a client machine uploaded a file called myfile.txt into this database. I would like the asp.net (vb) application tkae this file and read each line and do some processing. I looked at memorystream and streamreader but just can not figure this out. Can you please help? Thank you Kameron
I have an SSIS package that pipes data from an iSeries data source to a SQL Server table. The connection manager I am using is the .Net ProvidersOdbc Data Provider
When I run this SSIS package on my developer PC (from inside BIDS or using the Management Studio Execute Package Utility) it works. However when I run the package from within a SQL Server Agent Job it fails.
I have enabled logging and the error message given is: System.Data.Odbc.OdbcException: ERROR [28000] [IBM][iSeries Access ODBC Driver]Communication link failure. comm rc=8002 - CWBSY0002 - Password for user MALLPRESS on server SMICHC is not correct, Password length = 0, Prompt Mode = Never, System IP Address = 172.16.0.4 ERROR [28000] [IBM][iSeries Access ODBC Driver]Communication link failure. comm rc=8002 - CWBSY0002 - Password for user MALLPRESS on server SMICHC is not correct, Password length = 0, Prompt Mode = Never, System IP Address = 172.16.0.4 It gives the message €śPassword length = 0€? despite the fact that I have specified a password in the package.
To try to get around this I have added an XML configuration file to the SSIS package. In this configuration file I€™ve set values for the ConnectionString, UserName, and Password. I still get the above error about a password length of 0.
I have also tried to execute the package using dtexec, but this gives a similar error. The SQL used to run this is: xp_cmdshell 'dtexec /sq "SCSRV-06DTS PackagesStagingStagingBranchImport"'
This has got me stumped, and I€™m not sure where to go from here as these packages need to be programmatically run each morning. At the moment I am manually running them from within BIDS. All packages that don€™t use an iSeries connection manager run successfully in SQL Agent jobs. I have also tried using the OLEDB connection manager (ibm db2 udb for iseries ibmda400 ole db provider) without success.
I am trying to locate the solution file for the Adventure works DW included as part of the installation of SQL Server 2005 to be opened in Business Intelligence Development Studio, But where is the solution file saved? I can see its database from Management studio but I need to know its solution file to locate it in Business intelligence studio. Please could anyone here give me some idea about that. Thanks a lot in advance for any help and guidance for that.
This is a pretty simple question, but I'm going nuts trying to find the answer. After creating an SSI package, I told it to save to the SQL server... Now where do I go to pull that package up again and make changes and/or execute the package?
I have a report that is scheduled to run a once a week. This works fine. But now I would like this report to be saved as an Excel file automatically when it runs. how / where do I do this?
I have an File System Task that copies a file from one directory ot another. When I hard code the target directory (c:dirfile.txt) it works fine. When I change it to a virtual directory (\serverdirfile.txt) I get a security error:
[File System Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "Access to the path '\gracehbtest oS2TMM_Live_Title_000002.xml' is denied.".
When I submit data through my website one particular field which is drop down field and has 4 values (5, 10, Fee, other) saves as "undefined" I get no errors through the web site.
I recently viewed an application which included customizable savable reports. In the first step, the user selects from a very large (probably over a hundred) set of variables to include in the report (these would be the columns displayed in the report). In a second step, the user selects (from the same set of variables) which variables they want to set as criteria indicators (these would then be dropdowns and text boxes on the report that would filter the query results).
So, how do they do this? Lets take the AdventureWorks database as an example. Lets say the user can select the following variables to include in their report:
How do you design this in the database? If you have a table that holds all of the possible variables, and a table that connects the user-selected variables to the user – how then do you construct the query that pulls it all together? For example, what if a user wants only these two variables in their report:
Product.Name Vendor.Name
Here is the query:
select p.name as ProductName, v.name as VendorName from Production.Product as p inner join Purchasing.ProductVendor as pv on pv.ProductID = p.ProductId inner join Purchasing.Vendor as v on v.VendorId = pv.VendorId
How do you build that query from just getting two variable names?
ALTER TRIGGER Trigger1 ON countries FOR UPDATE AS begin
insert into country1 values(:deleted.cid,:deleted.cname,getdate(),,system_user,@@servername, host_id(),host_name(),DB_NAME()) --select * from country1 /*insert into country1 select * from deleted*/
i want to store data into country1 table as old data with all information end
IF I WANT TO SAVE THE ABOVE TRIGGER ERROR OCCURS IAM USING SQL SERVER 2005
I created a DTS by right clicking and exporting the data to a file and I also saved the DTS package. Where will the DTS Package be saved in SQL 2005 in case if I have to do any modifications later.
I don€™t understand what my wrong is. I am trying to save data in to SQL Mobile Database. my Database is included in my project. after saved, i connect that database by VS2005 server explorer to view the data. But I don€™t found any data in Sdf file. private void cmdSave_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) {
I want to modify a package stored on the server from my client machine, and everything goes great.
The only problem I get is that when I try to run it by double-clicking it I have to re-write the password in the connection string, i.e. "pwd=asdasd", because it is not saved by the package itself even though the checkbox in the Connection Manager tab (in the SSIS Designer) is checked. What can I do to save it automatically??
I am facing this unusual error. In My ASP Page I am submitting the Page and after submitting the form I am calling another ASP page, which contains sql command to insert the record.
My Problem is when I am submitting the Form. Record is getting inserted twice with same values.
What is the cause of this problem as I am facing this problem in every form.
Hi, there; I have a SSIS package which has SQL2005 as its destination. When I setup the connectionmanager, I'd like to use SQL authentication. But I found that the password field cannot be saved (Checkbox "Save password" is selected).Everytime I open the this package's connectionmanager, that password field is cleard. The result is that my C# application that loads that package to execute failed with "Login failed..."
Did I do something wrong or anybody know how to save that password field?
Hi,I've got a question about saving into datetime fields in a SQL Server table. A form I have create has two fields both for dates as well as other form fields, but the user may or may not fill in all the form fields, so when they click the save link I have a query which saves all the form fields whether they are blank or not. Unfortunately this is causing the two date fields to be saved in the database as "01/01/1900" even thoough they are blank fields.What is a good way to not save blank date fields as "01/01/1900"?ThanksStephen
I have a developer using SQL 7.0 Enterprise Manager and the DTS Wizard to create and save simple DTS imports on the SQL Server. The DTS job runs only on his workstation using his NT logon ID. Server is set for mixed security. Other users can edit the saved DTS job and resave it, then anyone can run the job. I tried having the developer log in with his NT logon ID on another workstation; he can't run the job from there if he was the last person to edit it from his workstation.
Any ideas, anyone? This is the only person having this problem in my shop.
Hi guys, I was doing some changes on my asp web pages, I added new field expiry date that will be scanned into the system in format ddmmyyyy but it can't save as i am gettting that message that char can't be converted into datetime as date time was out of range.
I have added this into my asp pages <% Session.LCID = 3081 %> and changed the sql server regional setting setting the date to dd/mm/yyyy I can't set it to ddmmyyyy as there is not option without "/".
Could somebody help me as this is quite frustrating.
I am facing a problem. I have custom data flow transformation.We have saved a package using component's earlier assembly version. Now when we install later version of the component the saved package fails to open. If I try creating new package it succeeds.
Error message :
Error 1 Validation error. Data Flow Task: DTS.Pipeline: The component metadata for "component "Oracle Destination" (153)" could not be upgraded to the newer version of the component. The PerformUpgrade method failed. Package.dtsx 0 0
We tried overriding "perform upgrade" method but still I am facing the same issue.
I ran the SSIS wizard in Management Studio and saved the file in MSDB. I want to look at the design of the package but even going to BI development studio, I can't seem to find where you can open and work with the packages which were created in Management Studio and saved in MSDB. Anyone find a way to look at them?
I created my first package using the import wizard and saved it to the server. And now I can't find it. In SQL Server Mgt Studio, I've browsed through every imaginable folder in the target database, in MSDB database, and in the global folders.
I read something that suggested there should be an Integration Services folder, but there isn't.
Once I locate the package, I understand that it's not editable. Can it be transferred to BI Studio for editing? TIA.
I ran the Import data wizard and chose to save the package to sql server. Now I would like to execute that package I saved again, but I can't find where to do it in the management studio. Help!
hi i have question can sql server know when the row in table Saved add new field call "date_row_save" date+time inside the my table in the sql server i need to know whan the row last Saved evry row put date time TNX
Dear all .. i have a serious problem & all ur comments will be appreciated..
i have bought an ASP .NET publishing tool which i receieved an sql script with it to execute on either Ms sql server or MSDE .
i executed it on MSDE as i don't have Ms sql server on my windows dedicated server .
I wanted the tool for publishing (Arabic Language)content for a highly traffic soccer website..
After executing the sql script i tested the tool but i found arabic characters are not saved when i add articles .. they were saved as question marks (??).
so i re-executed the sql script on a new db after modifying every code containg (varchar) to (nvarchar) to support unicode & thus arabic.
it worked & i succeeded in saving arabic articles
BUT >>>>>>>>>>>>>
i found that only short arabic articles r saved fine while any article that reaches around (1 microsoft word page) is not saved well with arabic characters but saved as question marks ( ??? ) .. !!
=======
so i checked the db tables using ASP.NET Enterprise manager & i found that
the field of article has (ntext) & infront of it number 16 ..
it seems that the (ntext) has a limit to wt it can save ..
so i believe there's a way which i don't know to make the (ntext) accepts long articles entry .
========
Here's the code in the original sql script i received with the tool & i hope u can guide me in details to any modification to do so that the ntext limit is raise to save any long arabic article.
========
code :
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[xlaANMarticles] ( [articleid] [int] IDENTITY (1, 1) NOT NULL , [posted] [nvarchar] (50) NOT NULL , [lastupdate] [nvarchar] (50) NOT NULL , [headline] [nvarchar] (350) NOT NULL , [headlinedate] [nvarchar] (255) NOT NULL , [startdate] [nvarchar] (50) NOT NULL , [enddate] [nvarchar] (50) NOT NULL , [source] [nvarchar] (255) NOT NULL , [summary] [nvarchar] (3000) NOT NULL , [articleurl] [nvarchar] (1000) NOT NULL , [article] [ntext] NOT NULL , [status] [tinyint] NOT NULL , [autoformat] [nvarchar] (50) NOT NULL , [publisherid] [int] NOT NULL , [clicks] [int] NOT NULL , [editor] [int] NOT NULL , [relatedid] [nvarchar] (2000) NOT NULL , [isfeatured] [nvarchar] (10) NULL , [keywords] [nvarchar] (255) NULL , [description] [nvarchar] (255) NULL ) ON [PRIMARY] TEXTIMAGE_ON [PRIMARY]
i highlighted the specific column for the article field with red color ..
i tried making it (nvarchar) but the sql manager i use saud it can't be done coz. there has to be a field for TEXTIMAGE coz. it's set to be (on) in the code.
waiting for ur help plz. ... i am desperate .. :confused:
