What is the best way to insert records into an SQL Server 2005 database that's being hosted with my website. The data will originate from customer sites as transactions. Do I connect to the hosted database using TCP/IP or do I create web pages that accept the data variables? This is all new to me!
I need this to happen unattended and 24/7/365
Thanks

Hi,
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi!
Today we moved from 32bit to 64bit computing environment. 64bit Window server 2003 and SQL 2005 are now our playing ground. And 32 bit Office 2003 is also installed. Excel in Office program plays important roll in our mission.
One of our routine task is that
step 1. get Excel data files from other websites and
step 2. extract specific data from them and
step 3. converting them into some type of data that can be compatible with SQL
Our problem occured in step 3. To convert data, we realised taht 64 bit excel driver, which we believe is not yet available, is required.
My questions are:
1. Is 64 bit excel driver (of office 2003 or office 2007) available now?
2. Is there any way OR IS IT POSSIBLE to use 32 bit excel driver with 64bit SQL 2005?
If possible, please enlighten me.
I would appreciate it very much if anybody answer my questions.
Sincerely
Hi,
How do I insert data that I have collected in a local database onto a table on my online ie hosted database which is on a different server?
At the moment I am just uploading all the data to the hosted DB but this is wasting bandwith as only a small percentage of data is actually selected and used.
I thought that if i used a local DB and then update the table on my hosted DB this would be much more efficient, but I am not sure how to write the SQL code to do this!
Do I do some kind of
INSERT INTO sample_table
SELECT xxx
FROM origanal_table
Or is it more complicated than this?
Thanks
Hi All,
Do anybody know if it's possible to have an SQL 2005 server deal with and out of office reply from an email its send via the new Database Mail?
My application sends mail to users, giving them task instructions via Database Mail, however if they have thier out of office set true, I just get a reply msg in the profiles inbox. I would like the SQL server to know that they are out of office.
I can recogise the replys by the subject and I have control over the format of the replies, so its just case of getting the SQL server to read msg in the inbox.
Thanks

I've tried everything. The CreateUserWizard works fine, but then, I didn't have to connect anything for that. I've tried both SQLServer and MySQL. Connection Strings are correct, everything is correct as far as I can see. I've followed every step many many times. I'm about to go back to the old style and use VB6, because this is just stupid. The error I get is "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 that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)" If anyone could help me out with this I'd really appreciate it.
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have a SQL Server 2005 database hosted by a provider that has about 500 databases on their site. I am running Access2007 on a Windows 7 Home Premium edition.
What I am trying to do is create a new Access2007 application and attach (i.e: Link) to the SQL Server tables. I am using SQL Authentication.
I have done this before where i attached via ODBC to Oracle, but it was on the corporate network - not on a hosted server. When i try to walk thru the Access process, it does not seem to let me give it the database name. I have the connection string i use in C# (for example: Data Source, Initial Catalog, UserID and Password), how to connect with Access2007.
Hello,
I am working on an ASP.NET apllication which will work with sensitve data that needs stored as encrypted. The ASP.NET application and SQL Server 2005 will be hosted outside of our company.
My questions are:
When I create a database master key, a certificate and a symetric key to encrypt and decrypt my data, will I be able to use these (master key, cert and symetric key) in other databases (say my local development SQL Server 2005 instance)?
Is a managed hosting a better solution to have total control over the the keys in the database?
Is there a white paper or guidance document for security in hosted databases?Thanks

Hello,
I would like to know whether is it possible to administer a database on a hosted site - i.e inserting some lines, executing a query. I normally access the files via ftp connection. And so far the only way I figured I can mess around with the database is to download it and change it on my desktop PC.
Thank You.

Hi allWe have a small database that we host on our own local server. In order toget the information into the database I have a VB program that collates theinformation from a variety of sources and then over our local internalnetwork writes it to the database tables.This information is then made available over the internet using thecompanies broadband connection. In order to alleviate bandwidth issues weare looking at paying for someone else to host the database.What I am hoping to achieve is to keep the VB software, but during the nightupload the data to the remotely hosted SQL server using say a series ofupdate statements. Does anyone know if this is possible, and will SQL Serverlook after the integratory of the data. Is there any issues with therelatively low speed of then Internet as compared with a local networkenvironment. The amount of data we are looking at moving is very little,some where in the region of a few hundred records per night split over about10 tables.many thanksAndy
View 1 Replies View RelatedI'm not sure this is the exact forum in which to ask this question, so if there is a more appropriate forum, please point me in that direction.
Basically I'm looking for advice and best practices for dealing with an upgrade plan for a hosted database. Here is the situation:
- Hosted software application (.Net)
- Uses SQL Server 2005
- When we upgrade the software application to a new version, there will be schema and data changes that need to be applied to the database
- For the software application, we have considered upgrading an offline machine and then switching old one instantaneously.
- For the database, I'm trying to figure out if we can keep everything live for upgrades, or if we should have a small amount of scheduled downtime to upgrade.
So we have identified 2 basic directions:
1) Keep the database live and apply the new script changes just after the application software is upgraded. This means zero downtime, but we'd have to design and test our application to be backward compatible, so that the new version of the application code could handle both the new schema design, and the old schema design. It seems that this option would add a huge amount of complexity because we would essentially be testing a 3rd app/schema combination.
2) Take a small amount of scheduled downtime and upgrade the application code and database all at once.
Obviously option #2 is the most desirable from a development process point of view, and #1 is the most desirable option from a business point of view (zero downtime).
So, I'm looking for some advice on this. Do most people take the whole system down? Are there 100% live systems that deal with this? Are there other approaches I'm not considering?
Any information would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Dear guys
I want to publish my web site and sql server on a hosted server. But i'm worried about people behind the server. all of my codes including web and stored procedures of sql server are open. as far as I know, there is no effective way to protect web pages source. how about sql server? I mean compiling stored procedures.
and another important thing is data. I think certain people have potential to see or change all of my records, or for example give email address of my customers to a third party or ... .
Is there any way?
I'm not experienced with SQL Server 2005.I've got a live copy of my database running on the web server.I've got another copy running on my desktop that I make changes to.Whats the best way to sync between the two so:1. I don't have to take the application offline2. I don't loose any data from the live database3. But I can implement changes to tables and/or add new tables
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi everybody,
Currently we have a MIS application, developed in VB 6.0 - SQL Server 2000 platform, which is used by around 60 users in our office.
We are planning to host a website remotely, which would allow clients to place orders, track order status etc. on it.
Would it be possible to access our local SQL database from the remote website?
I have a web app that uses two SQL Express databases. One of the databases is the membership database. I am deploying the app to a hosted environment. Here is my connection string:
<add name="Akamojo_APSNETDB" connectionString="Data Source=.SQLExpress; AttachDBFileName=|DataDirectory|Akamojo_ASPNETDB.mdf; Initial Catalog=Akamojo_ASPNETDB; Integrated Security=true; User Instance=true"/>
Here is the error that I get:
Could not open new database 'Akamojo_ASPNETDB'. CREATE DATABASE is aborted.
Cannot attach the file 'e:hostingmemberakamojoTournamentLogApp_DataAkamojo_ASPNETDB.mdf' as database 'Akamojo_ASPNETDB'.
File activation failure. The physical file name "c:inetpubwwwrootTournamentLogApp_DataAkamojo_ASPNETDB_log.LDF" may be incorrect.
The log cannot be rebuilt when the primary file is read-only.
The mdf file is not read only. In the hosted environment the database is on the E drive. In my dev environment the database is on the C drive. From the error message, it appears that when it tries to build the log file it is trying to build it on the C drive in a path that doesn't exist in the hosted environment.
Any help is greatly appreciated.

I am running the Office Professional Plus 2007 RTM with all options enabled and SQL 2005 Enterprise Edition. Based on the system requirements listed on the download page for the Office 2007 Data Mining Add-In, I've also verified that I have the correct CTP of SQL 2005 SP2 and that .Net 2.0 Framework is installed. Finally, I've verified that my local instance of SQL Server is configured correctly to allow temporary data mining models.
In Excel, all of the Table Analysis tools seem to work fine, and most of the options on the Data Mining ribbon also work; however, all of the options under "Data Modeling" on the Data Mining ribbon return the following error when I try to use them:
"Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.DataWarehouse, Version=9.0.242.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89845dcd8080cc91' or one of its dependents. The system cannot find the file specified."
Please help. Thanks.

Hello all,
I hope someone can help with my current issue as i have now spent the last 8
hours trying to solve it! Here goes...
I am currently moving all my websites from our in house set up to a FASTHOSTS
dedicated server. Our in house set up consists of separate server for web
and data and works well even with my recent foray into .Net sites.
I have just moved the most recent of my .Net sites
(http://www.alfadealerads.co.uk/home.aspx) to the FASTHOSTS server and cannot
get the site to connect to the database (this has also been installed on the
FASTHOSTS server). One of the pages that connects to the DB is
http://www.alfadealerads.co.uk/links.aspx, where i am getting the error..
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Cannot open database requested in login
'MasseratiChauffeurDrive'. Login fails.
Login failed for user 'lateral'.
This DB has been restored from back up from the original DB. I have
recreated the user name on the new SQL server and added it to the new DB
also. I am using a webconfig to connect to the DB, the exact same one
that works on my current live server
(http://www.maseratichauffeurdrive.com/home.aspx) only with the obvious change
to the SQL server name.
The only difference i can see in the 2 setups is that the new one has both the
webserver and the SQL server on the one machine and that machine uses domains.
My current in house setup does not use domains and as mentioned before web and
date are 2 separate servers.
Can anyone help? Or even understand what the hell i have written? lol
Thanks in advance
SQL server, by-mistake I updated values of a column in a database hosted online, is there any way undo the transaction. I didn't created any backup of the database. I read that still it can be recovered through the .ldf (log file) but unable to access it. Is there anyway to get access of the Log file or is there any way to recover the data.

Hi,all BI experts here,
Thank you very much for your kind attention.
I am having a problem with connecting to SQL Server 2005 database from Office Business Scorecard Manager 2005 (the connection string i am using is: provider=SQLOLEDB;Data source=server_name; Initial catalog=database_name). But the connection failed. Would please any experts here shed me any light on what is the problem and how to fix it then? As there is no any forum for Office Business Scrorecard manager 2005.

It seems that my code can insert data into memory, but not into the database. What I mean is that after "insert data", I can "read data",
which I just insert. When I check the actual database table, it didn't
get updated.
I am using VS 2005 and table designer. Regarding to this problem, is
it related to any setting of setup of the database? I check the code,
and I have no idea how it occurs.

private static string commandString = null;
private static SqlCommand command = null;
private static SqlDataReader reader = null;

{
// Insert data
commandString = @"INSERT INTO userTable

connection.Open();

how to insert data from asp page into sql database using visual basic?????
View 3 Replies View RelatedOk what i am looking to do i cannot figure out.
What i want to do is have a simple script that when a user logs onto the website (via windows auth) to get there username somehow llike with
Request.ServerVariables("LOGON_USER")
that should display there username either "domain/name" or "username"
and then insert that into the UserLogs Table under my database with the date with the GETDATE() command..
But when i do this i cannot get the page to auto submit the values. Actually i cannot get anything to write to the DB unless i am doing it under the query builder.

INSERT INTO UserLogs([User], Date) VALUES (@UserName, GETDATE())
