Added CPUs

Hi,
If I add more CPUs to an existing computer running SQL Server 2000
Enterprise Edition + SP4, do I need to do anything special to get SQL Server
to recognize the extra CPUs, or does it automatically detect them? What
about Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition + SP2? I'd be going from 2
CPUs to 4 CPUs.
Thank you,

It will detect and use automatically. If you want to check read about sp_configure and "affinity
mask". This setting specifies which CPUs SQL Server can use. By default all.

Add user to R\O Database

I have a SQL 2000 Enterprise Edition sp4 production database that is log
shipping to 2 servers (one for DR purposes and the other for reporting).
On the reporting server, the database is in Read-Only mode. I need to
add another user to the database so they can run reports. How can I do
this with the database in read-only mode? I can't take it out of
read-only because I'll have to set up log shipping all over again, won't
I? This is a 40 GB database so that would take quite some time to do.
Do you have any suggestions?
Thank you.
Toni

The only way is to add that user to a role that has access... you could
create a server role that has SELECT permissions for all objects, but I'm
not sure that a new role's access would be grand-fathered into an r/o db.
Unfortunately, the only built-in role that leaves you with is sysadmin...
but it's worth a try.

You need to add a login for that user on the originating server, add a user for that login on the
originating server and then add the same login on the reporting machine (making sure that the SID
matches).

Add SQL Compact to CE 6.0

I'm trying to add an SQL Compact Edition database to my application running on a CE 6.0 platform that I am also developing. Unlike PB 5.0, I don't see sql CE listed as an option in the catalog and when I try to run my application I get a pInvoke sqlceme30.dll error. I have found a number of references to this same issue elsewhere but no real good solutions. Most seem to point to the cab files not being deployed. I am thinking that I should have the necessary support files deployed in the CE image and I have downloaded and installed every sql CE version/update that I can find but none of them seem to add support to PB 6.0.

I am trying to add the cab files manually but I would appreciate any suggestions if there is a better solution............ Thanks
OK, I got it working with SQL CE 3.5 by manually adding the cabs to the PB catalog........... now I need to figure out how to installe the cabs automatically.

Add new datasource C++ sqlexpress does not work

I have Visual C++ Express edition and SQL Express edition installed. When I try to add a datasource, the only two choices are Microsoft Access and SQL Server File. This SQL one does not work when I select it with an error that it was "Unable to open the physical file x.mdf. Operating system error 32: 32(The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.). An attempt to attach an auto-named database.... When I do my own

System::Data::SqlClient::SqlConnection ^ c0;

System::Data::SqlClient::SqlCommand ^ k0;

System::Data::SqlClient::SqlDataReader ^ r0;

things work fine. Do I need to get a $ edition, download something extra, connect to the a different file (master.mdf and not x.mdf), repair/reinstall, ...?

I would note that it destroyed my msde mdf in previous attempts before I decided to try only the sql express server as a datasource.

I haven't really used VC++ express, but I'll have a go at solving the problem. You shouldn't need to buy the $ edition of SQL Server, or download something extra. In the past when I've seen this error, it has either been to do with file permissions or another instance being attached to the file. Verify that the user you're currently logged on as has full permissions on the file you are trying to connect to.

If this doesn't help, maybe post the connection strings you are using up.

For some reason I am not quite sure, when I tried to set up a datasource today after a reboot and not opening and debugging a project that had a manually written connection that worked, I was successful in getting the gui wizard to work.

Thanks.

Add New Database to solution

I'm running VS 2005 Enterprise, and SQL Server 2005 Developer / workgroup edition.

I'm trying to follow a few online examples to play around, and some of these examples require that you add a SQL DB to your solution by going:
-right click on website
-Add new Item
-Add SQL DataBase.

WHen I do that, I get the error that SQL Express isn't installed. Now the question is, why would I want SQL Express installed when I have SQL server 2005 already installed? My Machine can support it, but it's sort of a waste when I need to run SQL Server 2000, SQL Server 2005 and then SQL Server express all at the same time.

Any advice?

You are getting the error because you are using SQL Server as Access database when you have the developer edition which is the enterprise edition with deployment restrictions installed.

Now go to programs SQL Server, then management studio and then go to databases right click and go to new and then create a new database to create the blank database. To connect go to VS and click to datalink property and you should be able to connect. Hope this helps.

|||Caddre, thank you for the quick response! That solved it.|||I am glad I could help.
