I was wondering if anyone knows how to do it.
We have a couple of servers, each of which hosts tons of databases.
I am trying to write a script to check whoever has logged into any database within the past week, for example (not just the current users). I have tried 'sp_who' and 'sp_who2' but they are not meeting my needs.
Previously I have posted about my problem with transaction logs. Threw my research I have found the truncate log at check point. I have also been lead to think that a check point could be a full back up. I have set this option to true and then performed a full back up. Afterward I have shrank the database to find the transaction log to still be over 43 gigs. Where have I gone astray?
Hello all, In my co-operation we have a database which users are making changes on it. What I am trying to do is; I want to store all changes on the database, the user€™s information logs and I want to store it on a specific table. But I am facing a difficulty to make this. For example, if a user makes a change on the database, I want to store what kind of change does he/she makes, the time of the process and users information (IP address, login id) on another specific table thus I can store the process logs of my users. In my testing I can store the user€™s login_id, user€™s ip addresses and the login info with using
Is there a way to fire a trigger when a particular user (with sql login) logs into sql server? We are planning to use the above trigger to start a job which inturn records some inf.
Not an SQL admin. We have an SQL 2005 server that has about 5 DB's on it. One database is maintained primarily by a third party. Often when they need to do upgrades they login remotely to the desktop of our SQL server. Is there a way to apply permissions to specific databases like you would for NTFS? That way they can only backup their database and not do anything to any other databases? Thanks.
my aspnetdb.mdf can,t created my remote connection settings in sql server is ok and i get this folwing error :
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. SQLExpress database file auto-creation error: The connection string specifies a local Sql Server Express instance using a database location within the applications App_Data directory. The provider attempted to automatically create the application services database because the provider determined that the database does not exist. The following configuration requirements are necessary to successfully check for existence of the application services database and automatically create the application services database:
If the applications App_Data directory does not already exist, the web server account must have read and write access to the applications directory. This is necessary because the web server account will automatically create the App_Data directory if it does not already exist. If the applications App_Data directory already exists, the web server account only requires read and write access to the applications App_Data directory. This is necessary because the web server account will attempt to verify that the Sql Server Express database already exists within the applications App_Data directory. Revoking read access on the App_Data directory from the web server account will prevent the provider from correctly determining if the Sql Server Express database already exists. This will cause an error when the provider attempts to create a duplicate of an already existing database. Write access is required because the web server accounts credentials are used when creating the new database. Sql Server Express must be installed on the machine. The process identity for the web server account must have a local user profile. See the readme document for details on how to create a local user profile for both machine and domain accounts.

When I use Administrator to login the NT, I can use the Enterprise Manager. If I don't logout the NT, any users can easy to use the Enterprise Manager too. I would like to know is there any way to add a security checking to avoid user without privilege to use the Enterprise Manager?
I've created a check constraint using the dialogue box in SQL Server , which blocks out the insertion of records which do not meet the required the requirements.
Is there a way to be notified when the record has not been inserted?
we  do get incidents saying user can't login even adding to the group.So is there any script to check which group the user xxxxx belongs to from SSMS?
Hi, When i restore a database from a different SQl 2005 instance to another, i want to check if the logins are same and if the users in the destination db are all binded to the logins. How can i do that?
hi can anyone help me out, i have one issue that is how i have to check while adding new user details to database table weather that user name is exist in that table or not. for my application i'm using oracle database and C#.Net. table is g_users and columns are: Name Null? Type ----------------------------------------- -------- ---------------------------- USERID NOT NULL VARCHAR2(5) NAME VARCHAR2(20) EMPID VARCHAR2(5) USERNAME NOT NULL VARCHAR2(30) MOBILE NUMBER(12) EMAILID VARCHAR2(20) DOMAIN NOT NULL VARCHAR2(30) i need to check from c# programming before inserting a new row into table weather username is already exists are not. how to check this one?
In my application (infopath browser forms), First I get current user name thru System.Environment.UserName, after that, i want to check whether this user has access (read & write) permission to certain database, How do I do that? One way I tried before is to get all the users and stored the names in an array for comparing in my program, but can not figure out the SQL command (to get the database users), if there it is, please kindly tell me. Or if I can just pass the current user to check? Thanks in advance.
I have some script which creates/grant priveleges to windows/nt users to DB but i frequently get the message below:
Windows NT user or group '<user or group>' not found. Check the name again.
I understand that this is because the said user/group is indeed not present in the environment I'm running the script (ie. testing and production environment).
But is it possible to have some sort of checking whether the user/group exists in the environment so that I could determine whether or not to call some lines of code?
Not sure if this is possible so i had to ask. c",)
Is there a simple command that can be executed to check if the current user has sysadmin privs? Â I just want to check to see if I have sysadmin privs and if so then execute a command, if not do nothing in .Net code. Â I just want to do this check once and set a variable in the .net code.
In my case I have to log the errors raised by any task in a package to either windows event log, text file or SQL server. Also I need to send an email notifications to a group of people telling them about the error.
Now can I use SSIS package logging for logging the errors into the required destinations. I mean right clicking on the package and selecting Logging, then adding the required log providers and enabling the events for logging into those. I think I have to upfront select the log providers to log the error, I will not have the liberty to log the error to the destination, the name of which is passed as a variable to the package. This is okay with me though.
Now what will a custom log provider help me to do in this case. Also can I somehow configure my package to call the send mail task everytime an error is raised.
Also, one more option can be developing a package that only does the error handling. It will take in the paramters or the error codes and descriptions, the destination to write to and a flag to send mail or not for that particular type of error.
I've been running the Ola Hallengren maintenance script for the last five months without missing a beat. Today I find an error stating the UserDatabase Integrity check job failed last night. This is running on SQL Server 2014 BI edition w/64 Gigs.
I ran a DBCC CHECKDB on each database manually and all worked until I tried it on the biggest one that is about 18 gbs. It just keeps running and I eventually stopped it so I'm guessing it is memory, but doesn't make sense considering it has 64 gbs. I have it set to 64/4 max / min. Again, this was never an issue until last night.I've been looking up all morning, but not seeing much on this error "The operating system returned error 1453"?
Is there any way to get more information for when IAuthorizationExtension::CheckAccess fails to grant access to a report item for the current user? Specifically, it would be useful to know:
1. URL of attempted report 2. IP address of user agent 3. Identity of current user 4. Date/Time of the failed attempt
This is my first time to deploy an asp.net2 web site. Everything is working fine on my local computer but when i published the web site on a remote computer i get the error "Failed to generate a user instance of SQL Server due to failure in retrieving the user's local application data path. Please make sure the user has a local user profile on the computer. The connection will be closed" (only in pages that try to access the database) Help pleaseee
The 'view job history' on Enterprise Manager is showing me only 4 or 5 run histories. I want to see more history on each of the jobs.Even I changed the limit to 10000 lones from 1000 lines on the server properties in the job system option, I am still seeing only the last 4 or 5 histories for each job(there are a total of 70 jobs on the server).Any ideas??Thanks. Reddy.
I have set up a job as sa.After that I changed the sa password.Now I am not able to view the job history since then.Do i need to delete the job and reschedule it?
I have a question about the sql job history. I have a sql 2000 server that was recording all the job history on my sql jobs just fine until the other day. Today I checked the history and the jobs didnt show the past history anymore. Just today's history. So if the job didnt run today there is no history for that particular job. This isn't true, the job was run a few days ago. I know that no one went in and cleard the history on the jobs. What causes this issue, is there a way to not make this happen in the future? Is there a way I can recover the past history for my jobs.
