How do i load a database into SQL Server 2008 R2 express? SQL Server 2008, have a right click function on databases to add it. R2 don'r have the database folder. I checked the FAQ as best I could to find an answer but found nothing.
Thanks
I'm not quite sure, if I understand the question, but I read it as you do not have a "Databases" folder under the connected database server. I am thinking if the problem is more on the connection..
I assume that you mean SQL Server Management Studio.
In my understand you can't create a database.Right click and add.Something missing in your installation.Try to full install it again.. or try to create using Query
Create Database <DB NAME>

I have a requirement that am facing difficulty i.e. restoring a data from MS SQL 2012 to MS SQL 2008 using .bak file. when am trying to restore , am getting an error. is this possibility to restore this to downgrade.
can any one help me how to restore ?
Unfortunately SQL Server will not go backwards. The only way you can do this is Using SSIS to transfer the data or you can use the import/export utility.
On your 2012 Server Right click on the DB you want to export data from and scroll down to tasks and then choose export data it will have you then insert all of the information for both the source and destination servers then on the summary page click mappings and make sure they are correct for what you need and the DB it is going to is correct. Then follow the screens until you can click finish. YOu may have too play with it for a little bit to get it to behave nicely but this should work for you.
If all you have is a BAK file you may have to resotre it to a dummy DB on the 2012 server first.
Has anyone connected Adempiere (ERP) (or any PostGreSQL db) to SQL Server 2012 Express?
There used to be an IT manager to help me out with this, but now i'm left alone with this.
I downloaded the free Sql Server 2012 Express and wanted to use the SSRS for Adempiere. It seems its running on the SQL Server 2010 for SSRS.
I have already added the ODBC Data Sources for 32 Bit. My computer is using 64bit, is there any incompatibility? I'm not sure if my server is 32 or 64bit.
I've tried following the instructions on http://postgresblog.blogspot.com/ but to no avail.
I already have Crystal Report running, so i'm sure its possible to run 3rd party software for Adempiere.
Anyone knows how i can use SSRS for Adempiere? Thanks!
Since you're using Express edition, if you're trying to connect to any Data Source other than an database on the same SQL Server instance it won't work.
See Features Supported by Reporting Services in SQL Server Express.
From that article:
Report data sources must be SQL Server relational databases that run
locally in SQL Server Express.
Also:
Analysis Services, Oracle, XML, SAP, SQL Server Integration Services
(SSIS), OLE DB, and ODBC data sources are not supported.
You're going to need a different edition to connect to an ODBC Data Source.
I have a backup of a database (.bak) created in SQL Server 2008 R2.
To test some features, like to import this backup to LocalDB (2012).
When I click on Restore and select the database the following error occurs:
Property MasterDBLogPath is not available for Information 'Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Smo.Information'. This property may not exist for this object, or may not be retrievable due to insufficient access rights. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)
You need to add the following 3 registry keys (run/regedit):
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11E.LOCALDB\MSSQLServer\DefaultData,
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11E.LOCALDB\MSSQLServer\DefaultLog,
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11E.LOCALDB\MSSQLServer\BackupDirectory
With an existing folder name as value (where you have write access), e.g. "C:\Databases".
Please have a look at the excellent walkthrough under http://www.roelvanlisdonk.nl/?p=2896 (which is where I have copied the answer from).
Can anybody tell me if it is possible using Attunity for Teradata database and a Sql Server 2008 R2 database to have the "false load" loaded in a database and the logs in a different database?
Thank you so much,
Bogdan.
If anyone else wants to know, YES it is possible to have a different dabase for error tables when using attunity connector.
If one uses SSIS package in which attunity connector is used, all you have to do is to go in properties for that dataflow task object, to section "[teradata destination].[ErrorTableName]" and there you can write the name for desired database.table_name.
I'm trying to convert some old Excel-reports to Crystal Reports. The excel sheets uses OLAP-cubes and connects to a database using a XMLA connection over a SimbaO2X driver.
I just can't figure out which connection settings to use in Crystal Reports to be able to connect to the database.
I've tried both XML and OLAP connections, but just can't get a database connection.
Any help with the connection setting would be appreciated!
Edit: The database is a bit of a black box; it's probably an Oracle database (it was an Oracle database before the end user frontend was rewritten in java. They could have changed the database as well.) I have however no success with neither the Oracle Server nor the Microsoft OLE DB for Oracle connection method.
I have also this morning found a SimbaO2X provider under the OLE DB folder. While not working it's the best so far -- it accepts the username and password and lets me select which database to connect to but then fails with ADO Error Code: 0x80040e73 (Format of the initialization string does not conform to the OLE DB specification.) At least I have something to go on.
I'm running Crystal Reports XI if someone needs to know.
Partial solution:
Upgrade Crystal Reports XI to Release 2, service pack 4.
Update from service pack 4 to service pack 6.
Upgrades and updates can be downloaded from the SAP Community Network
A connection can now be made with the SimbaO2X OLE DB driver. This solution should also resolve connection problems with some other databases as well.
However, adding a table to the report results in a 0x800a0cc1 error (Item cannot be found in the collection corresponding to the requested name or ordinal)
