Iam facing problems to connect to the new database after detach the aspnetdb.Simply the new database disappear (In SQL 2005 Management studio express the database contents disappear ! and I get an error when try to open it).If I try to connectto aspnetdb again I get an error telling me it is used by another process.I don't understand what is going on could any one explain to me?
If I detach a database on a server, then attach the database with asingle file only using the data file...will I lose any transactionsthat were in the original log file? There is a debate going on here atwork where some people think that during the detach, transactions inthe log file are saved to the data file.Thanks!
I am getting the error: Cannot open database "aspnetdb" requested by the login. The login failed. When I browse to my ASP.NET 3.5 LINQ web application on the IIS 6.0 server on Server 2003. I imagine this is because while I granted SQL Server 2005 login and permissions to my database that the application stores its data in, I did NOT grant any rights to the service account the IIS Application Pool uses for its identity to the aspnetdb database on SQL Server which is where all my roles information is stored at. My question is what are the MINIMUM permissions needed for this database so it can perform its roles related functions? I'm using Windows Authentications with the SQL Role provider for authorization.
Thank you.
EDIT: I think I only need to open the aspnetdb database and add my login to the aspnet_Roles_FullAccess role. Is that correct?
I am trying to detach and attach a database on SQL 7.0 Server with SP 2 through Enterprise manager . However if i right click o the Database and go to all task , i see the ' detach database' greyed out . The same thing is seen for ' attach Database 'when i try to attach the database .
Although it can done through T-SQL commands also , does any body know the reason why this field is greyed out ?
Does it depend on the SQL 7.0 Service pack or any kind of special permissions ? The same is visible on SQL 2000 Server Enterprise Manager .
hi Please help me .I have detached a database in sql server 2005 using object browser.

Can any one help me how to reattach that database.I will be very thankful to him..
I've just created ASPNETDB database with ASP.NET Security. Now, I want to send this db to orther computer.First, I detached this db, then when I used attach database in that computer, there is an error :Error 602: Could not find row in sysindexes for database ID 8, object ID 1, indext ID 1. RUN DBCC CHECKTABLE on sysindexes. Please help me .Thank.
In SQL when I right click on Databases the option to use Attach/Detach is greyed out. I don't understand why. I'm running SQL 7 on Win2000 server and I have Win2k at sp2 and SQL at sp2.
I need some insight if possible. I installed a new server (to replace an aging machine) with SQL 2000. After installing SQL on the new server I tried to detach a database from the old server so that I can attach it to the new instance of SQL. My problem is that when I do the process I am stopped with an error message.
“Error 8146: procedure sp_detach_db has no parameters and arguments supplied.”
This is happening with all of the user databases on the old server.
I have tried to run this using both the Query Analyzer and from the right-click menu option and both return the same error message. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
An original database (eg A.mdf) is imported/exported to a different server as named B.mdf. The detach of A.mdf was unitentionally not done. It seems that both the database were updated.
I'm trying to detach a database and reattach to another server. When trying to detach it using Enterprise Manager, the command is greyed out. I've tried taking the database offline first but the command is still not enabled. I'm logged in as sysadmin. What gives?
I open enterprise manager , right click and choose detach detach database. I see line : connections using this database. I think that this is connection from client connect to database.I feel that connection disappear automatically after time interval. I want to know how long time ? Thank you very much.
I have the need to detach a database from code, at the moment I am using 'SSEUTIL -d' for this in my code and it works OK but now I want to change to using an SQLCommand. Here is my code so far:
Code Snippet
Dim conDatabase As SqlConnection("Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=MyMDFPath"; Integrated Security=True;Connect Timeout=60;User Instance=True") Dim comDetach As New SqlCommand("EXEC master.dbo.sp_detach_db '" + MyMDFPath + "'", conDatabase) conDatabase.Open() comDetach.ExecuteNonQuery() conDatabase.Close()
However, when I execute this I always get the following exception:
Code Snippet
Cannot detach the database 'MyMDFPath' because it is currently in use.
It seems obvious to me that the problem is that to do the detach I create a connection - how do i get around this?
There are two databases on two web servers, db01 is on server01, db01_replica is on server02, db02 is on server02, db02_replica is on server01. db01 and db02 are both for one system. Each time after doing performance test, I have to recover databses. I copy the data files in a folder, try to use detach and attach to recover databases. But with two replication dbs, I don't know how to do it. The replication db should also be recovered.
I'm trying to detach a database and after archive it for deliver to other server.
The detach wents fine and the database is removed from the database tree list in Management Studio. The problem is that the mdf file is being locked by some process (maybe SQL) and I can't imagine why. Here is the code for this operation:
USE master;
GO
ALTER DATABASE IMS_MCK_MIS SET AUTO_UPDATE_STATISTICS ON
<add name ="ASPNETDBConnectionString1" connectionString ="Data Source= .SQLEXPRESS; Integrated Security = True; DataBase = ASPNETDB.MDF; User ID = MyWindowsUserName; Password = MyWindowsPassword; User Instance = False; Connect Timeout = 30" providerName ="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
I tried to research on the internet and i got a solution on changing the permissions for this database to enable user SystemName/ASPNET, but iam not able to access this ASPNETDB.MDF from SqlServer and if i go to server explorer in vs2005, i dint know where to chage the permissions.
Everything I read about sp_resetstatus says you must restart SQL after. Isthere a way around that (don't want to shut down production). The suspectdb is just an empty db that is not needed. I need to create another db withthe same name.Thanks.
I am having a question on detach/attach database. As when we detach/attach database, we have to copy both of .mdf and .ldf files to the targeted filepaths, in this case, when the database is large, then it takes a pretty while to copy the physical files though. In this case, I dont really see the point to detach/attach the database? Instead, backup/restore may be faster? (also, as detach the database, the files has to be taken offline)
Just confused about the way we trasfer database files with detach/attach. I am looking forward to hearing from you shortly for any advices for that.
This might sound dumb, but BOL says you can use detach/attach to "MOVE" a database but can you detach and copy the files to a new server, leaving the files on the original and running the attach on the new and the old? (effectually a way to copy)? I know how to use data transformations/import,export was curious?
I have similar question like Tim asked but from a different angle. I wish I pose my question here too anybody can help answer this.
I tried to use detach and attach method to do backup of the user database (not master, maybe we can do master too) on another server, but it looks the login and permission credential would not go together. I come to see different kind of message I tried to login as non-sa user after I attatch the database on different machine. I would be denied for SQL timeout. It looks like loginand user dose not exist in new server because I did not move master database too. But even if I recreate the login when I tried to associate user with login I will see a message saying user or role already exist in database. If I go back to check the user it did not show up on enterprize manager on that database.
So my question would be 1). how to move login and user together with user database. 2) do we have to move master database where the login infor. reside 3). if so how to move master database from one server to another when other server already have master database exist?
I'm trying to see the differences between Backup/Restore and Attach/Detach. I backup and detach a database from SQL Server 2000 SP3 and then attach and restore it to SQL Server 2005 SP1.
The differences I noticed are:
1. The restored database has a much larger initial size (database size is same) for data and log. 2. The attached database has a last backup date 3. If the backup is restored over a database, the restored database is showing owned by the database owner of the database restored over but syslogins and sysusers do not match.
I don't understand why #1 happens.
Are there any other differences between Backup/Restore and Attach/Detach?
I am using the following C# code to establish a SQL connect to a SQL database file:
// connection string // attach a SQL database file to a local SQL server express instance string _connectionString = @"Server=.SQLExpress; AttachDbFilename=C:BalanceDatabase_1.mdf; Trusted_Connection=Yes; User Instance=True";
// using System.Data.SqlClient; SqlConnection _sqlConnection = new SqlConnection(_connectionString); // open the connection _sqlConnection.Open();
// do something
// close the connection _sqlConnection.Close();
So far, the connection works fine.
However, next, I want to copy the database file to another folder. So the following codes: // source database file name string sourceDatabaseFileName = @"C:BalanceDatabase_1.mdf"; // target database file name string targetDatabaseFileName = @"D:BalanceDatabase_1.mdf"; // copy database file System.IO.File.Copy(sourceDatabaseFileName, targetDatabaseFileName, true);
Then the program came with runtime exception: "IOException was unhandled: The process cannot access the file 'C:BalanceDatabase_1.mdf' because it is being used by another process."
Is it because the database file was sill attached to the local SQL Server express instance? What can I do to bypass this problem? Detach the database file? or dispose the local SQL Server express instance?
Hi there readers of this post, Do you know how to transfer the database (ASPNETDB.mdf) tables made by the ASP.NET admin tool into another database? I want to run everything from 1 database. regards Sat
Hello everybody, I am working with SqlExpress and MSSQL Server Management Studio Express and do not manage to open the aspnetDB .mdf database in which I am storing all data about my users.I woulds like to open it and to be able to request it in order to check some strange things.Actually, I'm experiencing an isssue with that database since the request just below gives me two results for only one user: SELECT Member.Password, Member.PasswordAnswer FROM aspnet_MemberShip Member, aspnet_Users Users WHERE Member.UserId=Users.UserId AND Users.UserName='Admin' Using this request returns me a user whom password is clear and an identical user whom password is hashed whereas I set PasswordFormat="Clear" in my Web.ConfigCould you explain me how I may proceed please? Thanx for your help
Hello. I have been developing a small site that has two backend SQL Server databases. One for my application data and one for the ASPNETDB database that is created by the ASP .NET Configuration utility. Is it possible to configure the ASP .NET Configuration tool to use my custom database instead of creating a second database called ASPNETDB? Thanks in advance. Kev
Hi I want to set up my web app to use a web parts personalization, I notice that a default database named aspnetdb is made, I also made one in my sql server using the aspnet_regsql.exe to make it. Now what I need to find out is how to make my app point to the database in the sql server instead of making that default one.
When I created my website in Visual Studio 2008, I ended up with two databases. The one I created (Speedway.mdf), then VS2008 added a new one (aspnetdb) when I added membership data (roles, users..etc). Since the host I'm using charges for each database, I just want to move all my membership information into Speedway.mdf. I exported the tables from aspnetdb.mdf to Speedway.mdf, but now I don't know how to tell the site to look at Speedway.mdf to find the membership info?
This question has been asked before, with vague responses I'm using Visual Web Developer 2005 Express, SQL Server 2005 Express and SQL Server Management Studio Express. When I create an application with Login controls, VWD automaticlly creates a ASPENTDB.MDF security database. I also create my own database for my application e.g. abc.mdf. In other words, I have two databases. However, my hosting company supports only one database. What do I (we) do? I have seen articles on: aspnet_regsql . Does this create a new database with all the security features of ASPNETDB.MDF built into my new database i.e. abc.mdf? (A) If yes, how do you run it with SQL Server Managment Studio Express? It sounds silly, but I need instructions here please ... Also, do you run this against abc.mdf or do you use it create abc.mdf? (B) If not, how do you achieve a single database scenario? I'm sure this is a very common deployment question, which is very confusing for most of us hobbyists that want to deploy their web applications
I have tried to find all the threads related to this topic. At this point I would like to find out what the best practices are for doing this. I plan to use Membership, Roles, and the login controls to handle my authentication and permissions issues. I want to use the same database for my application data as for Application Services, using a standard SQL Server. So far, the easiest way to set this up that I can think of is to:1. Use aspnet_regsql.exe to create the Application Services Database schema2. Edit the "LocalSqlServer" entry in <connectionStrings> to point to the above database3. Add the tables, views, stored procedures, etc., that I need for my application into the database created in step 1Is there any more configuration I need to do to get Membership and Roles working? When I did the Walkthrough, step 2 seemed to be the only requirement for getting Membership and Roles to work.Will I run into any trouble using LocalSqlServer for my application data updates?I would be interested in any other approaches to setting up a combined database, including opinions why and why not to do it.
Hello everyone, I have a problem with making such a query. I have two databases: DB1 and ASPNETDB - default asp database. I get data from DB1.Books and want to join (INNER JOIN) UserID with UserName from ASPNETDB.Users. The ponint is that I don't know how to access ASPNETDB in the query. I use SQLDataSource control in which I specified the ConnectionString pointing to DB1 database on my local SQL Server 2005 Express. On the other hand, if I use a ConnectionString pointing to ASPNETDB as a database dynamically attached from file (~/App_Data/ASPNETDB.MDF), I gain access to the Users table but I get an error message when I try to access DB1.dbo.Books... I'm getting sick of it.. thanks for any help!
Hi,I've a little problem. When I connect my local server by this connection string: Data Source=NB126SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=TVRM;Integrated Security=True I get content of ASPNETDB.MDF (placed in App_Data directory) instead content of my own database named TVRM. Please help...
