FILE DSN NOT STORING PASSWORD!

May 26, 1999

HI,

We are using a VB component which utilises a FILE DSN to connect to SQL but we have noticed that when using SQL Authentication in setting up the DSN in the control panel the password does not get saved. So the only way we can connect is to have a user with no password i.e blank.

we only noticed this when we tried to use a user other than sa which happened to have a password that is blank.

Has anybody else found a solution to this problem ?

Problem With Storing Password In File DSN

Nov 17, 2006

I am trying to create a file DSN to link a password protected access satabase to SQL server anywhere backend. I create the DSN using Microsoft Access Driver, Select my access database, go to advanced properties and type in the database password (user ID is admin). However, everytime I change records in the SQL front end, I am prompted to enter the Access database password. It doesn't seem to be storing it.

Any suggestions?

Which Is Better? Storing Data In The Database OR Storing It In The File System

Dec 29, 2006

Hello there,I just want to ask if storing data in dbase is much better than storing it in the file system? Because for one, i am currenlty developing my thesis which uploads a blob.doc file to a web server (currently i'm using the localhost of ASP.NET) then retrieves it from the local hostAlso i want to know if im right at this, the localhost of ASP.NET is the same as the one of a natural web server on the net? Because i'm just thinking of uploading and downloading the files from a web server. Although our thesis defense didn't require us to really upload it on the net, we were advised to use a localhost on our PC's. I'll be just using my local server Is it ok to just use a web server for storing files than a database?

Storing && Retrieval Of Encrypted Username And Password Hashes

Nov 22, 2006

Can somebody pls guide me on how i can Store & Retrieve Encrypted Username and Password Hashes.

I want to know following :-

1. I'm doing all the encryption and calculating password hashes on client side (VB), which i want to store in SQL Database when a new user account is created. I want to know what data types to use in Database. I will prefer not to use strings at all on client side due to secruity issues, i want to do all transfer in bytes -> to and from SQL server. How i can do that

2. How the connections can be made encrypted or more secure when doing these communcations.

3. I want to know if this is the right approach or to use the built in features of SQL Server 2005, main reason for not using that is that not all Encryption and Cryptography are supported...



pls help me on this as i'm fairly new to this.

Retrieving And Storing File Timestamp

Feb 20, 2006

I have a package that processes a flat file, which is generated by a separate system each weekday around 3:30AM. I would like my package to store the timestamp of the input file and compare it to the timestamp of the next day's file. If they are the same, then the package can exit without reprocessing a particular file again.

So, my first question is whether a package variable can be updated so that its value will persist from one run to the next?

Second, what is the syntax to retrieve the file's timestamp, either directly from the file connection manager or within a script task?

Thanks,

Phil

Error Storing Data In Text File???

I am selecting data from an OBDC then copying it to a text file an I always get this error, but when I change the destination to a excel file it works perfectly. But the whole point of the package is to copy to a text file.

Please could you help me, your replies will be greatly appreciated.

Storing Images In SQL Server Vs File System

Mar 5, 2007

I am looking for some microsoft recommendation on storing images in SQL Server Vs File System. Here is what our requirement is.

Currently we are using SQL Server 2000 with a VB6(COM+) & ASP front end. Our architecture involves Log Shipping & Replication. We use log shipping for our DR site and Replication to replicate to Datawarehouse & DB2 enviornment. I have been trying to research this topic and have come up with opinion favoring both sides mostly file system but nobody seems to point any Microsoft recommendation.

With our application we are looking for Transactions, backups, Log shipping & replication with these images. I have read MS implementation of TerraServer and there they recommend storing them in SQL Server if above is required. (https://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/sql/2000/reskit/part3/c1161.mspx?mfr=true)

Can somebody please point me to some Microsoft recommendation and what does SQL Server 2005 offers in this aspect.

Thanks

Speeding Up Site By Storing Query Results In File

Mar 4, 2008

Hello,
We have some queries that are long and intensive. We have thought about running the queries and storing the data in a text file for lookup from our website.

Example: Our online store only displays items that are in stock so when a user selects a category a query runs and grabs only items that are in stock and then displays them. There could be thousands of items the query needs to sort through before displaying the items that are in stock. What if we ran this query once every hours an stored the results in a txt file? The asp page would then go to the text file to grab the results instead of having to run the query every time a user selects a category. Will this speed up the site by not having to query every time? Would this be a correct way to eliminate queries that run thousands of times a day?

thanks
Andy

Error While Storing A Zip File With Size More Than 1MB In MS SQL Server 2005 Express

Aug 9, 2007

I want to store a Zip file as a BLOB, but I get an error:
"File 'C:<path of mdf file> ' appears to have been truncated by the operating system. Expected size is 2560KB but actual size is 1536KB "
whenever the BLOB exceeds 1MB.

Any suggestions? How can I store larger .ZIP files to the Database?
I am using MS SQL 2005 Express and the data type that I gave for the column to store Blob is "varbinary(MAX)".

I am inserting byte array in to this field.
It works fine for a zip file less than 1MB but as soon as the zipped file size increases beyond 1MB, lots of error pop-up and then the database is not readable. Its says that, the data in the data base may have been corrupted...

XML Configuration File : How To Save Password?

Jan 16, 2008



Hm... I use SSIS packages to manipulate some data from one SQL server to another. I chosed "DontSaveSensitiveData" and I am using a XML configuration file.


The problem is I have to edit the file with notepad manually and add the password for my SQLconnections in it.


Is it possible to do this from the Business Intelligence Studio instead?


I tried to edit the connections and set and save password there but it won't save it to the XML configuration file.


Or perhaps it is intended to be edited in notepad and passwords set manually to it?

ODBC Password Not Saved In Configuration File

Apr 19, 2006

Hi,
 
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 €œPassword 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.
 
Any help would be very appreciated.
 
Thanks, Matt

Configuration File For Connection Info (how Do I Set Password)

Oct 27, 2006

Hi All,

I'm new to SSIS. I'm trying to build a simple package, run it on dev and migrate it to our stg and tst environments. It works on my dev environment great! It simply loads data from a flat file into a table. The trouble i'm having is exporting the connection string info to an xml file and runnign it on other environments. I am not storing the package on the db. I am saving to a file and running through SQL Server BI Development Studio.

I go to "Configuration File" and export InitialCatalog, ServerName, User, Password to the file. I can manually change the xml to the new environment but don't know how to set the password. It's not in the xml and i am constantly getting "Login failed for 'sa'" errors. Anyone know how to do this. I CAN get this whole process to work if i use Windows authentication security but this isn't an option. I need to use the db security.

Thanks,
Dave

SQL 2000 DTS: Embed UserName/Password To Access File On Non-SQL Server

Feb 23, 2004

I 'completed' a DTS package which uses a file on a non-SQL server. I am about to put this into production, so it runs automatically each evening. but just realized that it won't work unless it signs onto the source file's Windows 2000 server. It works for me when I'm testing it because I am always logged on the the Windows 2000 server.

I have been trying to figure out which DTS task I need to use to establish a connection by embedding my UserName and Password. Any tips woud be apprecitaed.

Thanks,

Randy
