Problems in Creating Views in Sql

Hi everybody,
I have couple of Access databases needed to be
converted to access/Sql Client/Server database, which is new to me. I
am trying to convert my access quries to Sql Views or Stored
Procedures. I have run into a problem currently when creating view in
Sql:
I need to create some columns based on conditions of other columns,
for example:
1. Column example 1:
IIf([Column1]=-1,[ListPrice]*[Volume],IIf([Column2]=-1,0,[ListPrice]*Volume]))
2. Column example 2:
IIf(Len([Product].[P_No])<10,"",SUBSTRING([Product].[P_No],6,5))
3.Column example 3:
IIf([CustType]="D",([Field1]+[Field2])*[Volume],Field1*Volume)
The above are actually the columns that I need to create.
I have these functions built in Access Queries, but not sure how to
build them in Sql views. Have tried different ways, but failed.
Any body knows how to do it?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!
Thanks in advance!"Shelley" <schow@.hersheys.com> wrote in message

Problems executing Database Engine Tuning Advisor

We are trying to optimize one of our databases (SQL 2005) and we are running analysis on some of the stored procedures. However, the Database Engine Tuning Advisor is resulting in either

Event does not reference any tables.

Anyone have any idea why this would happen?

PLease explain the process how you are trying analyze the SP using DTA?

ALso may try from another machine to see whether its a problem of tools on this machine.

Problems deleting transaction log files older than x days

Hi,
I have a problem with maintainance plans an deleting
transaction log files older than x days. I have made one
maintainance plan for databases and that one works.
But the one made for the transaction log doesn't delete
the old files. They remain and aren't deleted
automatically.
brgds
PeterBelow KB might help:
http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...2&Product=sql2k
Also, check out below great troubleshooting suggestions from Bill H at MS:
-- Log files don't delete --
This is likely to be either a permissions problem or a sharing violation
problem. The maintenance plan is run as a job, and jobs are run by the
SQLServerAgent service.
Permissions:
1. Determine the startup account for the SQLServerAgent service
(Start|Programs|Administrative tools|Services|SQLServerAgent|Startup). This
account is the security context for jobs, and thus the maintenance plan.
2. If SQLServerAgent is started using LocalSystem (as opposed to a domain
account) then skip step 3.
3. On that box, log onto NT as that account. Using Explorer, attempt to
delete an expired backup. If that succeeds then go to Sharing Violation
section.
4. Log onto NT with an account that is an administrator and use Explorer to
look at the Properties|Security of the folder (where the backups reside)
and ensure the SQLServerAgent startup account has Full Control. If the
SQLServerAgent startup account is LocalSystem, then the account to consider
is SYSTEM.
5. In NT, if an account is a member of an NT group, and if that group has
Access is Denied, then that account will have Access is Denied, even if
that account is also a member of the Administrators group. Thus you may
need to check group permissions (if the Startup Account is a member of a
group).
6. Keep in mind that permissions (by default) are inherited from a parent
folder. Thus, if the backups are stored in C:\bak, and if someone had
denied permission to the SQLServerAgent startup account for C:\, then
C:\bak will inherit access is denied.
Sharing violation:
This is likely to be rooted in a timing issue, with the most likely cause
being another scheduled process (such as NT Backup or Anti-Virus software)
having the backup file open at the time when the SQLServerAgent (i.e., the
maintenance plan job) tried to delete it.
1. Download filemon and handle from www.sysinternals.com.
2. I am not sure whether filemon can be scheduled, or you might be able to
use NT scheduling services to start filemon just before the maintenance
plan job is started, but the filemon log can become very large, so it would
be best to start it some short time before the maintenance plan starts.
3. Inspect the filemon log for another process that has that backup file
open (if your lucky enough to have started filemon before this other
process grabs the backup folder), and inspect the log for the results when
the SQLServerAgent agent attempts to open that same file.
4. Schedule the job or that other process to do their work at different
times.
5. You can use the handle utility if you are around at the time when the
job is scheduled to run.
If the backup files are going to a \\share or a mapped drive (as opposed to
local drive), then you will need to modify the above (with respect to where
the tests and utilities are run).
Finally, inspection of the maintenance plan's history report might be
useful.
Thanks,

Problems connecting to SQL server on W2K3 from Win 2000 workstatio

We are running SQL Server 2000 on Windows Server 2003 (SP1 not installed).
We are trying to access our databases using Enterprise manager from our
machines in the office using windows authentication. We have no problems
from Windows XP machines (using both TCP/IP and Named Pipes). I can connect
to the server using the SA account (TCP/IP) and Named Pipes from a windows
2000 workstation, but cannot access the SQL server from Windows 2000 machine
s
using TCP/IP.
When we try to log in using Windows 2000 we get "login failed for user
null". From xp machines it goes straight in.
Testing that I have done:
? Set up an alias to the Windows 2003 server name (SQL Server Client Netwo
rk
Utility). No luck
? I can map a folder to the machine using net use command
? I am in the same AD domain.
? The clients are connecting to the server using integrated security (not
allowing SQL authentication)
I cannot understand what’s going on; do you have any pointers on where to
start looking?
ThanksSame here, except we can not to connect from win98 machines. From XP
everything looks fine. Before everything worked for about 1,5 years and
only today morning crashed. Btw, connection to (local) on server machine
works fine. Nobody did any changes in TCP/IP nor in DSN settings.|||This is because you are using Windows authentication without a domain setup.
If you aren't using a domain you shouldn't use windows authentication
because it tends not to work, use SQL Authentication and you'll always
connect. The problem is mainly that the users you are signed in to the W2k
box doesn't match a user on the W2k3 box, or the user isn't passed properly
to SQL, or if you really want to setup Windows authentication use to put the
workstations that servers into a domain..

Problems after SP4 - 100%CPU time

We've recently moved our databases from SQL 2000 SP3 to SP4. Now one of the
databases runs at 100% CPU when ever a query it made. Nothing else has
changed! Before SP4 the queries are quite small and took only 1-2 seconds to
run and maybe 10% CPU time, now it 100% CPU time and 30-50 seconds.
If I copy the database to another server with SP3 on it, it works fine. If I
then install SP4 on this machine it now runs at 100% CPU for 30-50 seconds.
The system is a clustered 2003R2 with SQL2000 connected to a fibre SAN with
RAID10 disks for the databases, 1 for the logs, 5 for the SQL EXE, 5 for
temp, msdb, etc And monitoring them there seems to be no disk problems,
queues are short, etc
Can anyone help? either hot fix, uninstall (don't have SP3 backup of master,
etc), sp changes.
Cheers
nigelDid you run update_statistics , reindex database.
Maybe recompile stored procedures!

I've run these manually and as part of the daily maintenance plan. The
database also has Auto update and create statistics.
At present the part where it all goes mad does not use any SP, but is called
via a JDBC Java client directly.
Task Manager view can be seen here.

Have you reviewed the execution plan for one of the problem queries?
Did you update statistics (manually, not automatically) when you moved
the database?

that query slightly so that it gets a better plan.

Problems Accessing SQL after going from SQL 2000 to Mgmt Studio SQL 2005

I installed Mgmt Studio and SQL 2005 on a new server - I imported my complete old SQL 2000 databases - then shut down my Original SQL 2000 server and used that Idenitical IP as the Mgmt Studio SQL 2005's IP

I am using Linux Jakarta Tomcat v5.0.27 and all SQL references are referring only to the IP number of ther server and not using DNS -

Originally I was getting an error when my system tried to access the SQL stating that it was an untrusted connection - I then realized that the IP number referred to was not the primary IP and I changed that so the it was.

Both the Linux and SQL 2005 are now using network IPs and then I got a message that the password that I was using was not strong enough so I changed that as well - then all my logging dissappeared

When I try to connect now there is no indication in any log (SQL nor Windows) that I am attempting to connect - the website just hangs for like 3 minutes and fails the login stating that the username/password is incorrect (or it could not verify it) even though I changed nothing on the Tomcat side and it was logging before the IP werent matching.

Is there a significance difference between SQL 2000 and SQL 2005 that will not allow my Tomcat to connect?

Few Addl Notes
I can ping to and from each server
I can telnet from Linux to SQL 2005
Linux of course is not part of my Windows 2003 Domain but it is on the same network

Any and all help would be greatly appreciated

Did you already enable remote connections on the SQL Server 2005 ? See more information in my site in the Screencast section.

HTH, Jens K. Suessmeyer.

http://www.sqlserver2005.de|||

Yes - I have SQL 2005 Standard Edition which listens over TCPIP but I changed it to Use both TCPIP and pipes just in case - no luck - I also have already made sure that both Authentications are allowed (Windows and SQL)

Here is an error I am getting

Problem:MS-Access.adp with MSDE link to csv file

Hi. I'm coming from a background of developing mdbs and am trying to migrate
our databases to adps running atop MSDE 2000. However, I've encountered a
problem while trying to do analogous things to what I've done before with
mdbs...for example:

-Linking to a csv file on another machine: I am able to establish a link
uning the 'Link Table Wizard' that shows up as a new view. However, upon
openning the view I see only a single column (left-most).

What am I missing here?

JamesMaybe I can help, drop me a email direct, I do this sort of thing for a
living

Regards
Andrew

PROBLEM: Database Mainence plan "All user Databases" missing database

If I select "All user Databases" and click T-SQL, 3 our of 4
databases are listed- and the missing database has not been backed up
via the plan. All databases are listed, however, when I select
"Selected Databases"- they are shown in the drop downbox.
This is for SQL 2005 Service Pack 2 with Hotfix 3175.
My guess: The missing database was restored and not restored to
overwrite an existing database. Since the CREATE DATABASE command was
not executed, maybe there is system info in master that doesn't get
set'
Help please. Thanks

No, that should not be the reason. The same meta-data would exist regardless of how the database was
created (CREATE DATABASE, attach or by RESTORE). Perhaps the database is in 70 compatibility mode?

> Erik|||Thanks. No, i've seent that 7.0 Compat mode issue before, it is
actually set to 9.0.|||Do the plan do both db and log backup? Is this missing backup a db or a log backup? Perhaps there's
a difference in the recovery model setting.
If not, then I'd check other database options, just doing a quick visual compare:
SELECT * FROM sys.databases

different and I turned it on and also set to FULL RECOVER MODE and it
got listed in View t-SQL preview !!
THAN I turned everything back to the previous settings for my missing
databses and the All Databases support still was fixed and in tact! t-
SQL Preview showed my previously missing database.
Updating sys.databases seems to fix the problem. maybe there is some
trigger in the background or something.
Thank you for all of your help.
