Replicate Database Objects That Are Not Dbo Ownership
Aug 25, 2006
I have a database called sky and its tables, views, procs and functions owned by sky. I need to replicate the sky database to another server. I had problem because those objects have ownership sky not dbo. I can not change ownership when replicate the database. How do I replicate database objects that are not owned by dbo? Is this possible or I have to change ownership from sky to dbo before replicate the database?
Thank you very much for your input and suggestions.
Hi !! I would greatly appreciate your help. I am a newbie at SQL Server..and am a trainee DBA for my company. the problem I am facing is that till now the developers were using any one of three (user created)logins and were creating and manipulating objects. All the creation and modification of objects and databases will be done by me. The problem is that the owners of the previously created objects is one of those logins. Is there anyway in which I can become the owner of all the objects and deny them any rights on altering the objects ?? or do I have to drop them all and recreate them with me as the DBO ?? Thanx
My system was crashing so I reinstalled everything. including SQL 2005 Express with management studio. I renamed the computer from the previous install. but for some reason the sql 2005 express management studio remembers the old machine name even when I create a new DB inside the management studio with the new computer name.when I try to change the ownership in properties-files it cant find the 'new computer nameuser'i double checked the computer name its correct. The funny thing is i installed express with the 'new computerame' anyone have a clue that may help with this what file needs to be edited?Thanks inadvance for any help.
I saw this option in SSMS under "Servers, Property, Security tab". I looked at BOL but I still don't understand what it is or what it is used. Any help appreciated.
i have a database with cross database ownership chaining enabled. data base was detached and reatached as a result owner changed from sa to account that was used during reataching. will this affect chaining?
we have a group of developers which have created and asked us (DBAs) tocreate many objects in the databases including tables / storedprocedures / functions / etc.since our company is growing, however we have an increasing amount ofobjects that have either been abandoned or have several versions.in an effort to clean of the huge amount of clutter and anytime thatsomething simple like a stored proc needs to change, it is almostimpossible to predict exactly where we will see negative effects ofthis change.i am looking for a system (preferably without developing our own tool)that would keep track of history of database objects (in terms of whocreated it and what purpose it has) as well as link that to all thedevelopers/users we might need to notify of any changes to that object.Also, this should be linked to the application which rely on theobject.bottom line... every object in the database needs to have at least 1corresponding contact as well as the applications which us it.with this information, we can much more easily maintain objects in ourDBs.thx
I installed VS2005 on my laptop at the office and of course, got the default instance of SQLEXPRESS. When I take my laptop home and log in (I use my NETWORKlogin login everywhere), I can't authenticate to use the database -- it doesn't like my login unless I'm physically at my office.
So, thinking I'm clever, I changed my SQLEXPRESS instance to use 'SQL Server and Windows Authentication mode' and tried to use the 'sa' login in my connection string. Login failed for 'sa' and since I had never set a password (yes, I tried using a blank) I executed the following query on my db:
The query works (?) but it my connection string doesn't and I'm still unable to use the management tool when not on the original network.
So, I thought I'd add a new, super secret special user, but alas, that has completely escaped me. That frightens me a bit because I'd really like to be able to deploy my database to my web host and trust the my connection strings will work.
So, here are my questions:
1. Can I set up my instance so that I don't have to be on the network on which I installed it in order for it to recognize me (since it's self contained on my machine)? If so, how?
2. How do I create new SQL users?
3. Has the connection string changed significantly, and consequently, am I missing something fundamental in my attempts to connect? If someone could toss out a working SQL Server Express 2005 connection string that doesn't use Windows authentication, that would be really appreciated.
Here's some info from my box, if it helps.
Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express 9.00.1399.00 Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 2000.085.1117.00 (xpsp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158) Microsoft MSXML 2.6 3.0 4.0 5.0 6.0 Microsoft Internet Explorer 6.0.2900.2180 Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0.50727.42 Operating System 5.1.2600
We are having a problem with cross database ownership chaining. Below is a description of the problem:
I have a domain group named DOM1GROUP1 I have a domain user DOM2USER1 who is a member of DOM1GROUP1 (note that they are in different domains) I have a database DB1 which contains a stored procedure (st_insertdata) that does an insert in a table (tb_data) on DB2 DOM1GROUP1 has been granted login rights on the SQL Server DOM1GROUP1 is a user in both DB1 and DB2 DOM1GROUP1 has execute rights on procedure st_insertdata and insert rights on table tb_data. All objects are owned by the dbo schema. The database owner for DB1 and DB2 is sa
When DOM1USER1 executes st_insertdata an error is returned: The server principal "DOM1USER1" is not able to access the database "DB2" under the current security context.
I've played around with the options "trustworthy" and "db chaining" but these do not make any difference. The only thing that fixes this problem is if I create a login for DOM2USER1 and grant it access to DB2 (with no other rights other than membership of the public role).
It seems that SQL Server does not recognize that DOM2USER1 is a user in DB2 by virtue of its membership of the domain group DOM1GROUP1. Is there a way to get this to work without granting explicit rights to DOM2USER1?
i have enable cross database chain,but it return error message:
The server principal "S-1-9-3-1149532189-1170944071-2610337685-3868961652." is not able to access the database "db2" under the current security context.
I list the sql script as follows:
Code Block
use master; go create database db1; create database db2; go use db2 go create table table1 ( col int ) go use db1 go
create user u1 without login go create proc p1 as insert into db2.dbo.table1 values(1) go grant execute on p1 to u1
My environment are Win Vista, Ms sql 2005 express, Ms Sql Server Management studio express. I have a database Mysearchdb.mdf and want to replicate Myseachdb.mdf to another database with exact same features. What is the best way to do it? I don't want to create each tables, functions and store procedures manually. Thanks
we have a server in our environment, we would like to make a copy of it on the other server in side the company and also do the same on the remote server.
Can u tell me how to do it or any sites where i can find the stratergy's which have been already implemented for review.
i want to replicate the data from one table into another table in the same database,all the transactions in table "a" should be replicated in table "b" and vice versa. Note:this should be done without using triggers
Very new to the world of databases. Our current database situation is a train wreck, but I'm not at the point I can fix it. So, all I'm trying to do right now is copy our 'live' database so that we can use the copy for development, without worrying about blowing things up.
Anyhow, the problem I have is that when I backup, and then try to restore the 'live' database, I'm told the drive doesn't have enough space, which is accurate (only has 1gig, needs 3gigs). FYI, EVERYTHING that has to do with our databases is currently on a 14gb partition, of which 13gigs are being used. There is an empty partition of 120gb just sitting there.
Can somebody tell me what is the best way to get this 3gb development database up? I tried to route the Data and Transaction Log paths to the empty partition, but it still seemed to want to mess with the 14gb partition and told me there isn't enough space when I tried to restore.
Hopeing this is something I can accomplish. I use MS-SQL for close to100 CMS web servers. Everytime I create a new website I have to createa new database and then use the export from SQL to SQL option and copyall data / SP's / etc... Just no security information. My question iscan I automate this? Can I create a script that will run all this?Thanks for any help, and thanks for reading.Chris AuerJoin Bytes!
Using SQL 7.0 I'd like to replicate just schema from DB on server A to DB on server B, then be able to replicate data only form DB on server B to DB on server A. I need help!!
Thanks for ANY information you can give me... ~Jepadria
My company is considering purchasing MS SQL Server to run anapplication on (SASIxp). I am mainly familiar with Oracle, so I waswondering how long it would take to copy a database. Basically we havedatabase A and each night we want to replace database B with thecontents of A. How long would this take say if we had a 10GB databaseor a 20GB database.What would be the technique to do this nightly, the Copy DatabaseWizard, Snapshot Replication, Attach & Detach...? We need to automatethis process, and the source database can be made unavailable whenthis happens.Thanks,Roger
Dear group,I have to replicate remote data to a SQL Server in the headquarter.The data are on a site which does not have permanent online-connectionto the headquarter.I have written a script which replicates the data and i want to set upa process / batch on the headquarter-machine which roughly does thefollowing1) Connect to the remote site2) start replication script (in fact a stored procedure)3) on success disconnect from the remote siteAll this has to run automatically e.g. during nighttime.Could someone please outline how i set up the connection and keep itup during my database-action and how to automatically disconnect aftersuccess of my replication script.I'd be jolly grateful.Thanks in advance and Greetings from ViennaUli

please help newbieI need to create a lot of objects the same type (let's say: schemas)I wish to use paramerized block in loop to do so.- how to put names of my objects to such control-flow?belss you for help
passing serialised objects to a stored procedure for the purpose of data inserts. I see this as being a way to handle multiple row inserts efficiently.
However, in my limited use of XML data I am not so sure how to link the data when I have a dependency on another "object" within the serialised XML.
Below is a code snippet showing what I have so far.
The first insert statement works fine - but how to retrieve the identifier created by the DB - I want to use an SQL statement that finds the record in the table based on the XML representation (of the PluginInfo), allowing me to insert the ConfigurationInfo with the correct reference to the PluginInfo
DECLARE @Config NVARCHAR(MAX) DECLARE @Handle AS INT DECLARE @TransactionCount AS INT SELECT @Config = ' <ConfigurationDirectory > <ConfigurationInfo groupKey="Notifications" sectionKey="App.Customization.PluginInfo"
I would be grateful if you could mail/point me to a TSQL script that can show me the Data Definitions of my SQLserver database objects. In fact, I have found a Visual Basic script that may be of help but it demands the installation of the Visual Basic software, which I do not possess. Thanks,
I'd like to write a stored procedure to drop all objects in a SQL Server 2000 database owned by a particular uid. Originally I'd hoped to use these two stored proc built-ins for the task: sp_MScheck_uid_owns_anything (to get a list of all objects owned by a uid) and sp_MSdrop_object (to drop the objects). I've run into a few problems along the way:
1. If I run this command
EXEC sp_MScheck_uid_owns_anything 5
I get this weird error message:
"The user owns objects in the database and cannot be dropped."
Not sure why that is since I'm just trying to list the objects, not drop them.
2. I tried running a simple query to get the objects from the system table instead:
SELECT * from [dbo].[sysobjects] where uid = 5
This returns a resultSet as you'd expect. When I wrote a stored procedure to loop through these and use sp_MSdrop_object it seemed to fail whenever it encountered a foreign key object. Here is the error message:
The request for procedure 'name of foreign key' failed because 'name of foreign key' is a unknown type object.
Can anyone give advice as to the best way to go about doing this? I'd really prefer not to have to drop the entire database and recreate it. Thanks!
I have an ActiveX script which I need to convert to a T-SQL Stored Procedure. As a part of it, I need to loop through all the tables in a Database and check whether the particular Table/View exists? If doesn't exist, I need to create one with Primary Key, Foreign Keys, Indexes (Clustered & Non-Clustered), and Check Constraints.
Here is the ActiveX Script I have:
Code: Dim sNextMonthTable Dim oServerName Dim oTables Dim CheckDate sNextMonthTable = "Jan_2012"
There are 2 databases A and B.How can I create a procedure in database A so that the procedure works with contains tables in Database B. IS IT POSSIBLE
What is the best approach when transferring all database objects & data from a SQL Server 6.5 database to SQL Server 7.0 database running on different servers.
I am in the process of cleaning up the security on one of our production databases. SA is already the owner of the database.
On this SQL server, there is a login that has access to this database that needs to be removed. When I uncheck this users access to this database I receive the following error message: "Error 15183. The user owns objects in the database and cannot be dropped".
How can i find out what objects this logins has ownership of and how can I change the ownership of these objects to SA?
