Generate A Strong Name Key File

May 22, 2006

I am a Newbie to programming and databases and would like to create a simple program for doing full text searching on a SQL database.

I have downloaded and installed Visual Basic 2005 Express, Web Developer 2005 Express, and SQL Server 2005 Express. I have watched several hours of video tutorials and done numerous tutorials. I feel I am making progress and having a lot of fun. My machine is running XP home edition.

I have found the following resource that looks like a good place for me to start with creating a full text search program:

€œSQL Server 2005 Books Online
Item Finder Sample
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms160844.aspx

However I am stuck at the beginning with trying to €œgenerate a strong name key file.€? I don€™t know how to €œopen a command prompt€? (I did confess to being a Newbie!!). I searched the database for this forum and found a relevant thread stating that €œSQLCMD is the command-line utility for SQL Server and is included with SQL Server 2005 Express Edition.€? I found the SQLCMD program on my computer but when I opened it, it does appear to provide the options listed below in the tutorial (i.e., €œclick start,€? €œPoint to all programs,€? etc.).

Initially here is what I need based on the first section of the tutorial:

Building the Sample

If you have not already created a strong name key file, generate the key file using the following instructions.

To generate a strong name key file

Open a Microsoft Visual Studio 2005 command prompt. ClickStart, point toAll Programs, point toMicrosoft .NET Framework SDK 2.0, and then clickSDK Command Prompt.

-- or --

Open a Microsoft .NET Framework command prompt. ClickStart, point toAll Programs, point toMicrosoft .NET Framework SDK 2.0, and then clickSDK Command Prompt.

Use the change directory command (CD) to change the current directory of the command prompt window to the folder where the samples are installed.
Note:
To determine the folder where samples are located, click theStartbutton, point toAll Programs, point toMicrosoft SQL Server 2005, point toDocumentation and Tutorials, and then clickSamples Directory. If the default installation location was used, the samples are located in <system_drive>:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server90Samples.

At the command prompt, run the following command to generate the key file:
sn -k SampleKey.snk

Important:
For more information about the strong-name key pair, see "Security Briefs: Strong Names and Security in the .NET Framework" in the .NET Development Center on MSDN.

How do I complete this initial step of generating a strong name key file for the tutorial? I guess I am missing something simple and once I get past this I will be able to complete the tutorial. Any help will be greatly appreciated.

I need to develop some crystal reports on some .NET ado datasets.This is easy to do if I actually had data to work with. It is mucheaser creating reports with you have data.Therefore, I would like to run the stored procedure that the .NET adodataset is built on and generate an XML file. I could run the projectand try to figure out where the developers are making the call to thestored procedure and insert a line to writetoxmlfile.

Generate A Text File From SQL Server

Feb 23, 2006

Hi

I need to generate a text file from SQL Server. The task automatically runs daily.

The format of the text file use "/" to separate the field and the row. At the end of the file, it adds number of char  and uses "". The number of char includes the data parts and excludes a few word of "the number of char".

For example,
The underline fonts mean the first row record. The Bold fonts mean the second row record. The Italic fonts mean the third row record. The red fonts mean the number of char and the end of file.

1/060222/008888/234/1/7441/2/BB/10000//////290025/////1/060222/008888/234/1/7441/3/XX/100-//////290025/////1/060222/008881/234/1/7442/2/BB/10000//////290025/////161

I am no idea about this problem. Please give me some suggestions. Thanks a lot


regards
Alex

For your information

I use SQL Server 2000 in Windows 2000 Server environments

SSRS: Generate Report Without RDL File

Jan 23, 2007

Hi all the good people here,

Can I generate a report without having RDL file physically at the server?

According to any "Generic Report Builder" logic, the report builder must stores the properties of Report in one form (RDL/XML) or the other (in database) and at the time of generating the "Report Output", builder must be reading those properties, assigning those to any class object's (say objRPT) properties/members and calling the method to generate the report in perticular file format.

I need a way where I can assign these values stored in the database (i.e. meta data of report is stored in database) to the objRPT directly. Can I do that.

I need this because I want to see whether I can switch from "Active Reports for .Net" to "SSRS" or not. I store all the meta data of the report into the database (including its control information, parameter mapping etc.) I have used Active Report's Events as well to show/hide controls/sections conditionally.

So in short as the metadata is in predefined-database, i don't want to bother with the RDL files. Can I do that?

Please help me with this.

Strong SA Pwd Needed To Install MSDE

Nov 1, 2006

Hi,My computer crashed and I have had to reinstall all the software.  However, when I try to reinstall MSDE (server), it keeps telling me a strong SA password is required and to use the SAPWD to switch it.  I cannot find SAPWD files or anyway to change this.  After I get this message, the installation process stops.  I didn't have this issue the first time I installed everything back in the beginning of September when the class started and before the computer crashed, I had no problem accessing a database using Web Matrix and the same server setup that I'm trying to install right now.If anyone can help me, I would be more than grateful.Thank youCarolyn (Crowbare)

STRONG SQL Server Blockings OR Deadlocks

Feb 23, 2005

Hello,

Got aprivate webserver with two main sites which generate maximum 800.000 pages vieweved a day...

these are running ASP and SQL Server 2000

FREQUENTLY, SQL Server doesn't respond and seems to be blocked, wich cause all my pages to be unreachable by the fact that my header file open a SQL connection in every page.

I've read a lot of documentation about SQL blocking or deadlocking but shame on me i don't really understand how to easily identify the reason of blocking and far more important, still don't kow the way to STOP these.

Is there a way to set a global parameter to STOP any SQL request wich is longer than 10 seconds let says... ?

I tried SET LOCK_TIMEOUT timeout_period but it seems we have to put it in EVERY transaction... not simple. Further more i tried it and it generated me a lot of errors (example : returning -1 for recordcounts after a request)...

Any help for a newbie SQL user to avoid these blocks ?

Urgent: Strong SAPWD Required On Win2003

Jun 3, 2008

Hi folks.

I just tried to perform the install of SQLServer 2005 Express on a Win 2003 SP2 machine and the install failed with the rejection of the SA password. Currently, our pwd is 1 uppercase letter, 4 lowercase letters and 1 number for a total of 6 characters. Other installations on Win 2003 SP1 have worked fine in the past. I read in a recent version of Books Online that the SA pwd guidelines might have recently changed and that 8 characters might now be required.

My question is: do these new 8 character guidelines apply only to the sa pwd or to all logins?

Thanks!

Valid Characters For SQL Express SP1 Strong Password

May 1, 2006

Hello,

I am attempting to upgrade an MSDE SP4 named instance to SQL Express SP1 and it is failing with a message that I must use Windows Authentication to continue the upgrade. The thing that I noticed is that when I specify an '@' sign in my sa password the upgrade fails, but if I specify a "#' sign instead the upgrade runs successfully.

The strong password rules appear to be that

1) the password must be greater than 8 characters

2) at least one character must be from 3 out of 4 of the following:

a) lower case characters

b) upper case characters

c) numeric

d) special characters (non-alphanumeric)

If I install the MSDE SP4 named instance with the password abcd@ABCD the upgrade to SQL Express SP1 fails with the message above. If I install the MSDE SP4 named instance with password abcd#ABCD the upgrade works.

The command I am using to install the MSDE instance is

"setup.exe INSTANCENAME=<instance> SAPWD=<password> SECURITYMODE=SQL"

To upgrade to SQL Express SP1 the command is

"setup.exe UPGRADE=SQL_Engine INSTANCENAME=<instance> SECURITYMODE=SQL" which fails when the sa password contains the "@".

Any help with this issue would be appreciated.

Thanks
