I think now MS SQL 2005 support packaging database object into schemas which may be granted access by any of the db users, while SQL 2000 only we could use the database creator user instead of schema. my case is i am working in a system with more than one module, e.g. HR + TaskManagemt.
Both HR and TaskManagement objects are in the same database, and there are some common objects.
I want to isolate the HR objects from the TaskManagemt objects, so i can package any module separated from the other, suppose i want to buy only the HR module, so that i want only to exctract the HR Object + the common objects but not the TaskManagement objects.
So how can i accomplish such operations using SQL 2005 schemas AND using SQL 2000 users.
P.S. i have two servers one with 2000 and the other with 2005, so i want to find solutions for both 2000 and 2005
I have been struggling with this for a while and cannot get it right. I have read countless articles on the internet as well as MSDN documentation about SQL Server 2005 and no success so far.
What I want is a database with multiple SCHEMAS, DATABASE ROLES and USERS in order to have a finer grade of security to access the various objects.
My schemas are (in order to simplify the situation and provide an example of the setup):
- [dbo] the standard DBO schema which is always default. Contains public objects. - [com] a special module integrated into the system - [ofc] contains objects used by back-office only - [aud] contains objects used for auditing, etc.
Each of these schemas has their fair share of tables, views, functions and stored procedures which have been created appropriately (i.e. CREATE TABLE [ofc].[Addresses]), in other words prefixed by the name of the schema to which they belong.
Then I have created various database roles (don't confuse them with SQL2005 application roles) as follows:
- PublicRole mostly used for viewing, no data alterations - WorkerRole used by front end processes that need write access to data in [dbo] and [aud] - OfficeRole used by back-office for dealing with backoffice data (basically [ofc], [aud] stuff) - AdminRole used by application administrator
Each of these database roles has been defined with owner 'dbo', none of them own any schemas. And last but not least to each of these roles I have selected the above named schemas (dbo, ofc, aud) as securables and for each of those securables schemas I have then given the correct set of GRANT/DENY on the Alter, Control, Delete, Execute, Insert, References, Select, Update, Take ownership and View definition.
As an example, the PublicRole role has been given the following permissions (Y=GRANT, N=DENY):
Table #1 of Application Permissions [dbo] [com] [ofc] [aud]Alter N N N N Control N N N N Delete N N N N Execute Y Y N Y Insert N N N Y References Y Y N Y Select Y Y N Y Update N N N Y Take ownership N N N N View definition N N N N
And I have the following minimum set of database users defined (the server login has the same name):
- upublic, assigned to PublicRole - uworker, assigned to WorkerRole - uoffice, assigned to OfficeRole - uadmin, assigned to AdminRole
As I understand when I assign these users to a particular custom Database Role, the users inherit the permissions granted to THAT role thus liberating me from having to assign the permissions to each and every user account on the same role.
What I expected was that when I logged in to the database with the upublic user account I would at least be able to view (SELECT at least) ALL the objects with the exception of those in th e[ofc] schema. Unfortunately the account is not able to access ANYTHING at all, I get an error like
"The SELECT permission has been denied on object XYZ, database DB, schema 'dbo'"
So, when I use Management Studio to look at the properties I selected the PublicRole and it showed the upublic user as a member of the role (Members of this role). So far so good.
Then when I switch to the Securables page for this role it shows all the schemas I defined and for each of them the same list shown in Table #1 except it has two lines for each permission, the first for Grantor dbo and the second for Grantor upublic. The first has the same permissions I assigned to the role (as shown on Table #1) but the 2nd does not show a checkmark on either GRANT or DENY!!! For example ([x] = checked, [ ] unchecked):
What am I doing wrong here? Apparently I then have to repeat the whole grant/deny for EACH and EVERY USER I define when the idea was that I would grant/deny on the database role and every member of that role would inherit those permissions automatically.
Does anyone know how to reserve a number of concurrent user licenses /per server logins in MSSQL 2000? I have a situation where I have more users than I have licenses for an enterprise SQL application and would like to make sure that a certain group of users always has access to the system. Individuals who only need inquiry access should only be allowed to login if there are licences available beyond the core group of users. Any Ideas? Thanks.
I'm trying to find some documentation or procedures that will allow me to xfer existing users' roles, etc from sql2000 to sql2005. When our sql 2005 database was restored on a new server (from sql2000), all of the database users were orphaned. I need to create identical server logins and then make the logins database users. It is also important to understand the significance of the new schema concept. The Microsoft SQL2005UpgradeTechRef.doc white paper does not explain any of this. Ultimately, I would like to create a script for the above scenario once a sql2005 db is restored from a sql2000 db. Could someone please help me out on this?
I am looking for some advice on securing a sql 2005 database.
I have a database to which I want to grant 3 different users access.
The first users, who we will call 'public' should have access to a set of stored procedures, and no access to tables without using the stored procedures they have access to.
The second users have again got access to a certain set of stored procedures, along with the stored procedures for 'public'. These should be called 'moderator'.
Finally the third set of users 'admin' should have access to all stored procedures, but again no access to the database unless its through a stored procedure.
Questions :
Using SQL 2005, how do I assign access to particular stored procedures to a user?
How do I ensure that a 'user' cannot access stored procedures I don't want them to access?
Some of the stored procedure use dynamic sql within them, will this affect my setup. If I deny direct access to the tables to all three users, but allow them access the stored procedures, can the stored procedures access the tables?
If schemas are the answer, how on earth do I set them up, Ive never seen something so badly documented online in my experience! In my development environment im using sql express, so will probably working through the query analyzer.

I am a bit new to the MSSQL server. In our application, we use so many SQL queries. To imporve the performance, we used the Database enigine Tuning tool to create the indexes. The older version of the application supports MSSQL 2000 also. To re-create these new indexes, I have an issue in running these "CREATE INDEX" commands as the statements generated for index creation are done in MSSQL 2005. The statements include "INCLUDES" keyword which is supported in MSSQL 2005 but not in MSSQL 2000.
Ex:-
CREATE INDEX IND_001_PPM_PA ON PPM_PROCESS_ACTIVITY

I've been tasked to move our production databases on MSSQL 2000 to 2005. I've supported MSSQL since version 6.5 and performed migrations to successor versions.
Current Environment is MSSQL 2000 32-bit with current Service Packs.
I've performed mock migrations on Test servers upgrading all Production instances simultaneously from MSSQL 2000 to 2005 32-bit. The Test environment is identical to Production minus server name, IP etc. Also I have a separate server with MSSQL 2005 installed where I use the DETACH / ATTACH and BACKUP / RESTORE method for migration / acceptance testing. There are approximately 30 databases totaling 70 GB. This has gone as expected and fairly successful. Vendors have been coordinated with to update code and staff for acceptance testing.
I'd prefer going directly to MSSQL 2005 64-bit instead if possible due to memory benefits etc. This is where I'd like some feedback prior to borrowing a 64-bit server for testing.
Upgrade options:
1. Is it better to migrate from MSSQL 2000 32-bit to 2005 64-bit via: a. DETACH / ATTACH b. BACKUP / RESTORE c. Is one method more advantageous relating to the end result? 2. Regarding XP clients, have issues been experienced with the default SQL Server driver or is an alternate recommended for XP clients to connect to a MSSQL 64-bit server databases? 3. If you have performed this migration and have relevant experience please pass them along.
Sql 2005 I want to grate execute permissions on my stored procedures to a role. While creating the role, it asks for "schemas owned by this role". To me, the schema is merely a namespace that allows you to group objects, but arent schemas such as db_datawriter roles that are central to the db and only admin type users should have ownership of these, correct ?
In a nutshell, I want to: create a new role and assign a user to that role with a stored procedure, grant execute permissions to this role
I was confused by the sql 2005 dialog that asks me to take ownership of roles such as db_datawriter, db_datareader etc, wouldnt that mess up other things with the database ?
help ...
I think its time I review all of the above items role user login schema
Writing to tables created by regular users on MSSQL2005
I have users creating tables through an application, I gave them ddl_admin, datareader, datawriter. They can create tables but cannot insert/update data (to their own tables), I cannot insert data either using Access or any other application to those tables created by them (under dbo schema) Is there something I am missing with permissions? Thank you very much
I have installed MSSQL 2005 on my D: drive of my windows 2003 server, but now need to install MSSQL version 2000 b/c I realized I have one less license than I thought I had. I have build no databases, only the default information. Can I install another instance (being the 2000 instance) on the same drive? If I can't, can I install it on the Crive without a lot of issues???? Or would it be easier to remove 2005 and just start from scratch? The sql version is 9.0. Any help or comments would be greatly appreciated.!!!!!
Hello our organization has never had any problems getting users to connect to our SQL servers but we have grown a lot over the past year or two. Does SQL Server actually block connections if they go over the license limit? I don't have access to the servers to see the model used but I have been asked to look into this. I couldn't find any information on this so I decided to ask you guys. Thanks in advance.
I am new user of SQL Server. I have some problems with these words. I want to make my database works in my specified permissions. I will specify permissions with schemas and these schema wants an owner. I want this owner should be my user. When creating a user it needs a valid login. I am selecting my login and it occurs and error says this login has an different user. I am specifying permissions with roles. But i can't make association all of them. I hope i told my problem to you as well. If you explain these words to me and tell me how can i do my database's works with my own schemas, users and roles i'll be grateful. Thanks for advices.
We are currently running sql 2000 and are moving our database onto sql 2005 running on a different box.
We have managed to move the entire database, with users however the users permissions on specific tables/views/stored procedures have not been transferred, does anyone know a way of transferring user permissions rather then doing them all by hand?
The system is a large (over 500 table/views/stored procedures) and a very active one and therefore downtime is not optional.
I also migrated the server level logins using SSIS transfer logins task, available on SSIS 'Transfer logins', I selected all the databases that I have migrated so that I have all database users account in server logins (to avoid orphaned users); but I don't have all the database users in server logins, also the sys.sysusers doesn't have the database users, that I have moved to SQL 2005. Can anybody help?
Also do I need to back up the SQL Server 2000 database and restore it on SQL 2005? What impact this operation can have?
I'm running 2000 databases in a 2005 server. Can anyone tell me if there are adverse effects in doing this? As I understand it, the 2005 performance benefits are available to databases running as 2000(Ver80) But some of the new futures may not be available.. And any documentation from Microsoft/white papapers regarding this subjects are appreciated..
Hi allI am looking for the best method to automate a website's database management. Lets say I have a user registration database and the users register. This sends an automated email to the user with a link to activate the users registration. If the user does not register within 24 hours, his registration must be automatically deleted from the database using a stored procedure.I know how to do this using the global.aspx file, however there must be an alternative way of doing this, especially if the database is an SQL database. I do not know how much MSSQL server access is given to a developer by an as ISP who hosts the website.Can anyone tell me what would be the best method to use.ThxWarren
I have clients that have the MSDE version installed and we need to upgrade there program to the MSSQL 2005. Is there an easy way to convert the data? Should or Could I uninstall MSDE and than install MSSQL2005 WorkGrp? Will there data be affected? Any tips would be appreciated.Thanks!
I have two databases lets say DB1 and DB2. Schemas for both databases is same. In both database schemas there are tables which has identity columns as primary key. Now i want to merge these two databases in a single database say DB3. It may also possible that some master records in both databases are common so they should not repeat in DB3
Is there any way so that i can do it quickly and as soon as possible.
DB is developed on local computer with MSSQL 2005 Express. My host is on MSSQL 2005 workgroup. Are they compatible, because I am getting errors? Is my approach wrong?
I have tried several approaches.

C: I have also tried opening the Database, and back up file through Server Management Studio. without success.
D: I also tried Windows and Software update at microsoft update, but no updates were recommended for Version on Server.
I'm surprised this is so hard. My original data base was created in same family of software. 2005 MS SQL Express. I could use some direct help from someone experienced with this. Am I doing it wrong or are the DB versions incompatible.
Is there a way to create a table in SQL Server Management Studio under a different schema? I've tried setting my default schema and adding a table, but that didn't work. I know I could do it with a SQL statement, but wanted to know if I could do it with the designer.
