Trying To Attach Database In VS2005 And All DB Files Say They Are Being Used And To Close...they Are NOT Open.

Apr 13, 2008



Just to verify that this was an issue, I downloaded web developer 2008 and I do not experience this same problem.


BUT when I go to add a dataset in vs2005 for an asp website - all my db files come up in the dialogue box but everyone that click (every db file) I get "This file is in use. Please enter a new name or close the file that's open in another program."



But, like I said, I downloaded 2008 and it does not occur. Plus I KNOW that the db's are not being used. Can someone give me a remedy to this?

Leave The Connection Open Or Always Open And Close Immediately?

Jun 7, 2006

Hi there,
 
I got an approach like that:
1) Read something from DB - check the value, if true stop if false go on2) Read the second Value (another SQL Statement) - check the value etc.
Now I could open the connection at 1) and if I have to go to 2) I leave the connection open and use the same connection at 2). Is it ok to do that?
The other scenario would be opening a connection at 1), immediately close it after I read the value and open a new connection at 2).
Thanks for the input!

Can Multiple Workstations Running SQL 2005 Server Express Attach To The Same Database Files On A Shared Network Location?

Mar 15, 2007

Can multiple instances of SQL 2005 Express attach to the same database files on a network share? I have seen this done before with MSDE where the database files are stored on the server, but instead of having a SQL server running on the network and then connecting to it, only the database files exist on the network share and the users connect through MSDE running on the local machine. Is this possible with SQL2005Express? I do not have the ability to share an SQL instance from one workstation to another nor do I have the ability to install an instance on the corporate server. Is it as simple as creating the database and storing the files on the share then attaching the database to the SQL Instance on each workstation?

Keep A Few Connections Open All The Time Or Open/close Connections On The Fly?

Jul 20, 2005

Just a quick question about connection management. My application willnever need more than 1 or 2 connections about at any given time. Also, I donot expect many users to be connected at any given time. For efficiency, Iwould like to keep connections alive throughout the lifetime of the objectsrequiring them, rather than opening a new connection, executing code andthen closing it again. What is the most efficient way of doing this?Should I perform the open/close or just one open when I create the objectand a close when I dispose of it?

Convert Tick-by-tick Stock Price Time Series Data Grouped As High, Low, Open And Close Prices

Dec 3, 2006

I am working on a stock price analysis project. Stock prices are stored in SQL Server as tick by tick data (that means in a high frequency) and need to be grouped by minutes in order to display them as as high, low, open and close prices in a candlestick or similar chart.

The fields in the table are:

Time (for every stock price tick)
Price (stock price)
Symbol (of the stock)

A sample time series would look like this:

11:45:01 $22.11 MSFT
11:45:02 $22.10 MSFT
11:45:04 $22.25 MSFT
...
...
...
11:45:58 $22.45 MSFT
11:46:03 $22.22 MSFT
11:46:08 $22.25 MSFT
...
...
...
11:46:59 $22.45 MSFT

The result of the SQL query should be:

Symbol Time Open High Low Close
MSFT 11:45 $22.11 $22.45 $22.10 $22.45
MSFT 11:46 $22.22 $22.45 $22.22 $22.45

This is the SQL statement I came up with but obviously doesn't work:

SELECT DATEPART(Minute,Time), MIN(Price), MAX(Price) FROM dbo.TimeSales WHERE Symbol='MSFT' GROUP BY DATEPART(Minute,Time)


I would appreciate any suggestions.

Thank you!

Attach Db With Same Files As Existing Db

Jun 3, 2004

In SQL Server 2000, I would like to attach a Database that is the file of the Database on another system. I made a copy of my Client's Database at his site. Now I would like to attach it to my server and then copy the data from my Client's DB to mine.

The only problem is they have the same file names, so when I try to attach the copy I get an error message. Is there any way to change the name of the data file and log file that a database points to so that I can attach it to my Server?

Thanks in advance for your help!

How To Attach Or Restore Db From .mdf And Ldf Files After Db Deleted

Aug 19, 2002

First, let me say that I have already reviewed information posted by experts within the chat area.

Someone completely deleted my SQL Server 7 database. I retrieved the .LDF and .MDF files from a network backup. Now I am trying to attach the database. I have tried this without creating an instance of the database by using the attach stored procedure to attache the .LDF and .MDF files I retrieved from the network backup. Also, I have tried it by creating an instance of the database and doing a detach of the newly created db .LDF and .MDF files and an attach of the .LDF and .MDF files I retrieved from the network backup. Neither of these approaches have worked.


Here is what I have tried in the Query Analyzer, but to no avail:


For the following example, I created a database instance called 'qarun_diamond_48_brett' with brand new .ldf and .mdf files and then tried to detach and then attach the .ldf and .mdf files from the network backup:

use master
go
sp_detach_db
'qarun_diamond_48_brett', 'F:APPSSQL 7.0DatabaseDataqarun_diamond_48_brett_log.ldf'

Message: Usage: sp_detachdb <dbname>, [TRUE|FALSE]


use master
go
sp_detach_db
'qarun_diamond_48_brett', 'F:APPSSQL 7.0DatabaseDataqarun_diamond_48_brett.mdf'

Message: Usage: sp_detachdb <dbname>, [TRUE|FALSE]


I tried the following attaches of the retrieved/recoverd .ldf and .mdf from the network to the newly created db instance. That didn't work, so I tried attaching to a db that had not yet been created.

use master
go
sp_attach_db
'qarun_diamond_48_brett2', 'F:APPSSQL 7.0DatabaseDataqarun_diamond_48_brett2_log.ldf'

Message: Server: Msg 1801, Level 16, State 3, Line 1
Database 'qarun_diamond_48_brett' already exists.

If I use a different db name I get the following error:
Server: Msg 5105, Level 16, State 13, Line 1
Device activation error. The physical file name 'qarun_diamond_48_brett' may be incorrect.


use master
go
sp_attach_db
'qarun_diamond_48_brett2', 'F:APPSSQL 7.0DatabaseDataqarun_diamond_48_brett2.mdf'

Message: Server: Msg 1801, Level 16, State 3, Line 1
Database 'qarun_diamond_48_brett' already exists.

I have also tried these statements wtih the EXEC sp_attach_db and EXEC sp_detach_db commands from within the Master db in Query Analyzer.

Any help would greatly be appreciated.

Thanks,

-Brett

Cannot Open User Default Database. Login Failed. (only When IDE Is Open)

I get the below error only when my IDE open. It connects well when it is found closed.
[SqlException (0x80131904): Cannot open user default database. Login failed.Login failed for user 'JPASPNET'.]
I could solve this by giving the logged in windows user to impersonate under IIS window > WEBSITE > ASP.NET tab > EDIT CONFIG > APPLICATION tab
But I wish someone could give me the proper solution.
I almost tried all from giving ASPNET user as a administrator to configuring the same in Express management tool.

Database Design Question. I Am Close ;)

Oct 27, 2005

Lets say I am selling parts for cars, trucks, suvs, vans, etc. 
I want a user to search for a part by selecting a vehicle type, then a vehicle make, and then a vehicle model.
So
Vehicle Makes have to be related to Vehicle Types (I.E: Land Rover doesn’t make a car) and vehicle models need to be related to vehicle make (I.E Toyato doesn’t make a mustang Ford does).
So I am okay with those relationships individually but what is confusing me is how to ensure that a Mustang doesn’t show up as a Ford Car.
 
Lets say I have: 
vehicle_typevehicle_type_cdvehicle_type_desc 

vehicle_makevehicle_make_cdvehicle_make_descvehicle_modelvehicle_model_cdvehicle_model_descThen I might have an intersect between vehicle_type and vehicle_make because certain makes don’t have certain types of vehicles.  BMW doesn’t have a truck, Lexus doesn’t have a truck, so when a user selects truck as a make lexus nad BMW shouldn’t show up in the drop down.Vehicle_type_makeVehicle_type_make_keyVehicle_type_cdVehicle_make_cd I might have the same relationship between make and model:

Cannot Attach Mdf: Create File Encountered Operating System Error 5 While Attempting To Open The Physical File...

Sep 5, 2006

I have used the copy database wizard, but I realized I had forgotten to shrink the transaction log file. So I canceled the wizard. My database, detached by the wizard, has now disappeared. The mdf file is still there, but when I try to attach it manually I get the "create file encountered operating system error 5 while attempting to open the physical file..." error.

Any way I can recover it?

Thanks.

Close All Existing Connections And Processes To A Database

Jun 4, 2007

Dear all



I created this trigger on a table that i think failed while execution. I tried to modify it and run it again but it seems that i cant do that. If i try and delete the database i also cant - saying that it is still in use. But i am not using it and ther are no other users connected to it. I think the trigger has probably hit a loop and that is holding the link.



To close that i know that a solution would be to restart the SQL server instance but that would be a bit hard since the SQL server where my test database resides is a production server and has few other databases that are important and few users use them.



Is there any way through a SQL statement that there can be forced a delete? Or force close all the connections? Or force close all the processes without actually restarting the SQL server instance.



I have tried all options that were offered on some other forums like forcing it to a single user but even that operation can not be performed saying that the database is still in use.



Thank you so much for all your help and time.



Sincerely

Dan

VS2005 Error: Connection To SQL Server Files (*.mdf) Requires SQL Server Express 2005 To Function Properly.

Mar 6, 2008



Good Evening All,

I've serached this forum and Google'd for a resolution to this issue, to no avail. Here's the scenario:
I'm running VS 2005 on Windows Media Center laptop and need to create ASP.net membership for my web application built using VB. I have SQL Server Developer installed with instance name MSSQLSERVER. Previously, I uninstalled SQL Express and installed Developer edition and can now open and utilize Management Studio.

Now, when I try to create a new SQL Server database in my solution's App_Data directory, I receive the above error. I already changed instance name in VS2005 per Tools-Options-Database Tools-Data Connections to MSSQLSERVER.

Could someone provide me with a list of procedures to ensure proper setup of VS2005 with SQL Server Developer Edition?

Thanks much for your help.

SQL 2012 :: Close ALL Connections To Particular Database Engine In Management Studio?

Jul 14, 2015

In SQL Server Management Studio, it is possible to do the following:

a) In Object Explorer, connect to a particular SQL Server Database Engine, let's call it X.
b) Use that connection to generate many SQL queries, connected to X, in the right-hand pane.
c) In Object Explorer, connect to a particular SQL Server Database Engine, let's call it Y.
d) Use that connection to generate many SQL queries, connected to Y, in the right-hand pane.
e) Close the connection to X, which was created in step (a), from within Object Explorer.

In the right-hand pane, I am now left with a bunch of queries connected to X, and a similar bunch of queries connected to Y. Any quick way to shut all the queries connected to X, but none of the queries connected to Y?

This question can assume real practical importance if server X is a Live Production Server, and server Y is a Test Server, and my next job of the day is to run a change script against server Y....

I have looked for an option in Management Studio to "Close all queries connected to Server X", but haven't found one.

Migrating From Sql2000 MSDE Database To Sql2005 Express - Attach Database Errors

Apr 23, 2006

I have a medical records system, SoapWare v4.90, that uses MSDE (SQL2000) databases. Due to the 2gb limitation, I am trying to migrate over to SQL 2005 (Standard or Express) which I have heard works fine. The SoapWare has a datamanager that allows me to log in to the MSDE instance, detach the SoapWare databases from msde (as well as do backups, etc) which I can confirm are detached.

Then I log back into a SQL2005 database instance using the datamanager and try to attach the database. This is what their pictured instructions demonstrate. However, I get the following error:


Database 'sw_charts' cannot be upgraded because it is read-only or has read-only files. Make the database or files writeable, and rerun recovery.


Of course, some of the entries will be read only, since doctors have to sign off the charts and are not allowed to subsequently change them.  But I should still be able to switch over to sql 2005?!?!?!?


Or... is there a way to attach the databases to SQLExpress manually?

Help pls?

Access Database Datatypes, ADOX And VS2005 Question

Jun 28, 2007



I'm using ADOX 2.8 for table creation: The following is an example of a column defintion:





If CreateNewTable Then CreateNewTable = a.CreateColumn("ReferenceCount", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adInteger)

If CreateNewTable Then CreateNewTable = a.CreateColumn("Document", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adLongVarBinary) 'Oleobject

If CreateNewTable Then CreateNewTable = a.CreateColumn("EntityID", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adWChar, 18) 'text



Where CreateColumn looks like this:


Public Function CreateColumn(ByVal ColumnName As String, ByVal Datatype As ADOX.DataTypeEnum, Optional ByVal Size As Integer = 0) As Boolean

'ADOX.CreateColumn - Called by Common.CreateNewTable
'CreateColumn creates a column described in the Table object so it assumes it is set.
'One method of setting it is to call Select Table after opening the database

If Not Me.ConnectionIsOpen Then
MsgBox("CreateColumn - Failed to Create Column : " _
& ColumnName, MsgBoxStyle.Exclamation, cNoConn)
Return False
End If

Dim col As New ADOX.Column
col.Name = ColumnName
Try
col.Type = Datatype
Catch e As Exception
MsgBox("CreateColumb - Failed to Create Column : " _
& ColumnName, MsgBoxStyle.Exclamation, e.Message)
col = Nothing
Return False
End Try

If Size <> 0 Then col.DefinedSize = Size
Try

Table.Columns.Append(ColumnName, Datatype)

Catch e As Exception
If Err.Number() <> 0 Then
MsgBox(Err.Source & "-->" & Err.Description, , "Error")
End If
MsgBox("CreateColumb - Failed to Append Column : " _
& ColumnName, MsgBoxStyle.Exclamation, e.Message)
Return False
End Try
col = Nothing
Return True
End Function


in CreateColumn("EntityID", ADOX.DataTypeEnum.adWChar, 18)

the 18 specifies the field width in the database. Yet no matter whether I use adWChar or

adVarWChar, Access always shows the field size to be 255.



Does anyone know why or how to fix that?
