Getting 5105 error when I try to attach database

Here's what I did. I created a new database on SQL Server 2000, on a remote
server, using Enterprise Manager. I then exported some data from another
database (same instance) into my new database. I then detached the database
I created, and copied the .MDF and .LDF files to my machine.
I've been trying to attach the .MDF and .LDF files, again using Enterprise
Manager (I'm also running SQL Server 2000). In EM, I tell it to Attach
Database... I give it the path to my .MDF and .LDF files, hit Verify, and
they verify (both the .MDF and .LDF file paths show up in the window,
checked). The problem comes when I hit OK. It gives me error 5105 (device
activation error), it gives the same path that I gave it, and says that the
filename may be wrong.
I don't think this is a permissions problem, and I've checked whether any
other process has grabbed ahold of it, and there isn't any. So I'm not sure
what's wrong. Please help.

Other than this bit of information in the article, nothing else in it seemed
relevant.

to another, because I'm working on a software development project. The
source database is behind a firewall, and I can't access it from my
application on my development system. All I need is a subset of the data on
the source database. So I decided to create a new database on the source
instance, export the data I needed into it, detach it, and then copy it to my
machine, where I have my own SQL Server 2000 instance, and where I was
planning on accessing it from my application. I transferred it using a
straight network file copy process (ie. copy from source file system and
paste to destination file system). No tape backup was involved. Is the
picture getting clearer now? :) Forgive me for not making this clearer. I
sometimes forget I'm not always talking to other developers.

parameters correct. Possibly, you need to specify correct path for the ldf file if not in same path
as on original SQL Server. If that doesn't work (and you feel that you got the parameters correct),
I'd try to attach the original files (before the file copy) on the originating server. If that work,
I'd copy the files over the network back onto the originating server and try to attach those
files...

Getting "An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host (System)" error

I cannot connect to Analysis Services through SSMS. Receiving a "An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host (System) error." I changed my password this morning due to our company security policies and now I can't do squat. This is definitely a bug in the service as something is cached and not clearing out. I've rebooted both the server and client a couple of times. Running AS 2005 SP1 on Windows Server 2003. I can connect through another machine. Here's the message I'm getting. Don't know where to look to fix the problem.

GETDATE() Function Issue

Hi Everyone,
I'm running into an issue trying to update a column on a remote database.
The server is linked from the server I'm calling this update statement. The
syntax is as follows:
UPDATE Server1.Test.dbo.Testdata
SET dtUpdated = GETDATE()
WHERE intID = 111
The problem is that the update takes a very long time to complete. Now if I
declare a variable with a datetime and set that variable to GETDATE(), the
update takes seconds. Is there some known issue? Can anyone help with this
?
I have noticed that I can update small size tables, but it takes much longer
to update large size tables. The columns in the "Where" clause have indexes
on them and that can't be the issue since my test using the variable worked
quicker. I'm just wondering why I can't use the GETDATE() function directly
.
DarrenDarren
No, it works fine with GETDATE() function too. Please take a look at
execution plan of the query (with GETDATE() and without) and see what is
going on

Madhivanan|||I looked at the execution plan and it is doing what I thought it would. The
execution plan shows that it does a remote scan to look at the whole table
then it will filter by the where clause. This is the source of my problem.
For a large table that holds over 4 million records, it has to scan that
whole table before filtering on the primary key I'm already passing it. I
don't understand why on the remote server it must scan the whole table
instead of already filtering by the where clause. When I use a variable to
update the date column it shows a remote query for the update. Why is this
happening? Did some setting happen that I don't know about? How can I trac
k
down this issue?

Get SQL 2005 Server Licence Info

Hi!
I'm looking for a way to retrieve Licence Info from SQL 2005 Server with
VBScript
From a remote location I connect to the server and grab those info with my
administrative rights, but I'm not accessing the DB with a SA account...
With SQL 2000 Server I retrieved those info from registry...
In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL
Server\80\MSSQLLicenseInfo\MSSQL8.00
Value Mode and ConcurrentLimit
But now hot to get this info for SQL 2005?
Thanks a lot!

Often, the quality of the responses received is related to our ability to
'bounce' ideas off of each other. In the future, to make it easier for us to
give you ideas, and to prevent folks from wasting time on already answered
questions, please:
Don't post to multiple newsgroups. Choose the one that best fits your
question and post there. Only post to another newsgroup if you get no answer
in a day or two (or if you accidentally posted to the wrong newsgroup -and
you indicate that you've already posted elsewhere).
If you really think that a question belongs into more than one newsgroup,
then use your newsreader's capability of multi-posting, i.e., posting one
occurrence of a message into several newsgroups at once. If you multi-post
appropriately, answers 'should' appear in all the newsgroups. Folks
responding in different newsgroups will see responses from each other, even
if the responses were posted in a different newsgroup.

Your comment is not justified. Posting in multiple groups is very wise.
Different people visit different sites, and reaching them requires it.
Time is often critical, and waiting "a day or two" is out of the
question.
Sorry I can not help you Fred. Good luck.

But if you multi-post instead of posting independently, all can see all answ
ers. If you post
independently, one can spend 5 minutes writing an answer just to then find o
ut that a satisfactory
answer has already been given in another group. Since there is a lot of traf
fic here, some posts go
un-answered (no-one here is paid to help), avoiding this waste of resources
is considered polite.

Get SQL 2005 Server Licence Info

Hi!
I'm looking for a way to retrieve Licence Info from SQL 2005 Server with
VBScript
From a remote location I connect to the server and grab those info with my
administrative rights, but I'm not accessing the DB with a SA account...
With SQL 2000 Server I retrieved those info from registry...
In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL
Server\80\MSSQLLicenseInfo\MSSQL8.00
Value Mode and ConcurrentLimit
But now hot to get this info for SQL 2005?
Thanks a lot!

Often, the quality of the responses received is related to our ability to
'bounce' ideas off of each other. In the future, to make it easier for us to
give you ideas, and to prevent folks from wasting time on already answered
questions, please:
Don't post to multiple newsgroups. Choose the one that best fits your
question and post there. Only post to another newsgroup if you get no answer
in a day or two (or if you accidentally posted to the wrong newsgroup -and
you indicate that you've already posted elsewhere).
If you really think that a question belongs into more than one newsgroup,
then use your newsreader's capability of multi-posting, i.e., posting one
occurrence of a message into several newsgroups at once. If you multi-post
appropriately, answers 'should' appear in all the newsgroups. Folks
responding in different newsgroups will see responses from each other, even
if the responses were posted in a different newsgroup.

Get SQL 2005 Server Licence Info

Hi!
I'm looking for a way to retrieve Licence Info from SQL 2005 Server with
VBScript
From a remote location I connect to the server and grab those info with my
administrative rights, but I'm not accessing the DB with a SA account...
With SQL 2000 Server I retrieved those info from registry...
In HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Mi
crosoft SQL
Server\80\MSSQLLicenseInfo\MSSQL8.00
Value Mode and ConcurrentLimit
But now hot to get this info for SQL 2005'
Thanks a lot!

'bounce' ideas off of each other. In the future, to make it easier for us to
give you ideas, and to prevent folks from wasting time on already answered
questions, please:
Don't post to multiple newsgroups. Choose the one that best fits your
question and post there. Only post to another newsgroup if you get no answer
in a day or two (or if you accidentally posted to the wrong newsgroup -and
you indicate that you've already posted elsewhere).
If you really think that a question belongs into more than one newsgroup,
then use your newsreader's capability of multi-posting, i.e., posting one
occurrence of a message into several newsgroups at once. If you multi-post
appropriately, answers 'should' appear in all the newsgroups. Folks
responding in different newsgroups will see responses from each other, even
if the responses were posted in a different newsgroup.

Get Remote SQL Server Date Time

Hi All,
I have 3 sql servers located at different time zones. Say, CST,PST,EST.
Now how can I get current time at EST,PST from the SQL server located
at CST? Is there any query to do that?
I have a stored proc located in SQL server at CST zone where I need to
query for the current date/time of the other zone sql servers.
I tried below query at CST SQL server
SELECT TOP 1 GETDATE() FROM [SERVER-PST].master.dbo.syslocks
But it always gives CST datetime.
Please reply...
Thanks
RP
