SQL Server 2012 Management Studio: XML XQuery-query the XML Blob using CTE: How to specify the coorelation name in bulk rowset?

$

Hi all,

I just started doing the XML Xquery programming in my SQL Server 2012 Management Studio. I executed the following code:

--query the XML Blob using a CTE (pulling from the XML file each time)  Products
WITH XmlFile (Contents) AS (
SELECT CONVERT (XML, BulkColumn)
FROM OPENROWSET (BULK 'H:\Products.xml', SINGLE_BLOB) ) AS XmlData
)
SELECT *
FROM XmlFile
GO

I got the the following Msg:


Msg 491, Level 16, State 1, Line 4
A correlation name must be specified for the bulk rowset in the from clause.

How can I specify the correction name for the bulk rowset in my project?

Please kindly help, advise and respond.

Thanks in advance,

How to use SELECT-Statements during debugging?

$
0
0

I'm using the SQL-Server 2012 and the Management Studio along with it and set up a view which consists of several tables.

For the convenience I added an INSTEAD-OF-INSERT and an INSTEAD-OF-DELETE trigger. For some reasons I don't understand (yet) they're not behaving as they should and I did some debugging.

So far it does what it should - yet there are some issues I can't get behind and would like to know what exactly theDELETE identifier contains.

Unfortunately neither in the Watches Section nor in the Commands section it's possible to go through it. Also I can't use SELECT-statements or anything near it. Or am I doing it wrong?

How is it possible to use the Select-Command in that way?

Thank you.

Hi all,

In my SQL Server 2012 Management Studio, I executed the following code:

CREATE TABLE Products(
  sku INT Primary KEY,
  product_desc VARCHAR(30));

INSERT INTO Products (sku, product_desc)
SELECT X.product.query('SKU').value('.', 'INT'),
       X.product.query('Desc').value('.', 'VARCHAR(30)')
FROM (
SELECT CAST(x AS XML)

FROM OPENROWSET(
     BULK 'H:\ZenProducts.xml',
	 SINGLE_BLOB) AS T(x)
	 ) AS T(x)
CROSS APPLY x.nodes('Products/Product') AS X(product);

SELECT sku, product_desc
FROM Products;

I got the following message:

Msg 9455, Level 16, State 1, Line 5
XML parsing: line 3, character 12, illegal qualified name character

I have no ideas why the "product" in the statement "SELECT X.product.query('SKU').value('.','INT')" is not legal qualified name charcter!!!???  Please kindly help, advise and respond.

Thanks in advance,

Hi all,

In the Notepad, I created an xml file (ZenQroducts.xml) :

<Qroducts><Qroduct><SKU>1</SKU><Desc>Book</Desc></Qroduct><Qroduct><SKU>2</SKU><Desc>DVD</Desc></Qroduct><Qroduct><SKU>3</SKU><Desc>Video</Desc></Qroduct>

In my SQL Server 2012 Management Studio, I executed the following code:

--to create a new object Qroducts in a new database OPENXMLtesting
CREATE DATABASE OPENXMLtesting
GO

CREATE TABLE Qroducts(
  sku INT Primary KEY,
  qroduct_desc VARCHAR(30));

INSERT INTO Qroducts (sku, qroduct_desc)
SELECT X.qroduct.query('SKU').value('.', 'INT'),
       X.qroduct.query('Desc').value('.', 'VARCHAR(30)')
FROM (
SELECT CAST(x AS XML)

FROM OPENROWSET(
     BULK 'H:\ZenQroducts.xml',
	 SINGLE_BLOB) AS T(x)
	 ) AS T(x)
CROSS APPLY x.nodes('Qroducts/Qroduct') AS X(qroduct);

SELECT sku, qroduct_desc
FROM Qroducts;

I got the following message:

Msg 9400, Level 16, State 1, Line 6
XML parsing: line 13, character 12, unexpected end of input

I have no ideas why I got this "XML parsing:line 13, character12, unexpected end of input" message. Please kindly help, advise me on where I made mistake and how I can resolve this problem, and respond in this Forum.

Thanks in advance,

Copy a database

Hi

A client has had a web application for them. the company who made this web application wanted MSSQL Express

So we have a Cloud Server, with MSSQL express installed on (It should be fine as the data shouldn't ever exceed 10GB)The server gets snapshot backups by webfusion - problem this means image based restore not individual file based and I have no control over - hmmm
However being a cloud server means I can't readily attach a USB Hard drive to do a local backup using windows backups

The web application does have a lot of pictures, which are linked to the database via filenames (filename txt stored in db, image stored as a file in a website subfolder). - Anticipated size to reach over the next year 400GB with scope to get upto 800GB over the next 5 years (they love their high quality images)

The client has a LiveDrive online backup subscription, and knowing their software works on Server 2008R2 and Server 2012 I have installed this. So it backs up the website data as it changes to a LiveDrive  online backup, this means the images and web application data is all backed up)

This means there is 1 thing not backed up (other than by the webfusion snapshot backup) - this is the MSSQL database.

This area is new to me, so I am looking for suggestions.

I would like to ideally be able to do a copy of the SQL Database to a file which could be copied back to a new server or a restore or accessed or anything... as this copy would not be an open file, it would also be able to be backed up by LiveDrive (LiveDrive can not backup open SQL database files)

Or maybe get the database to export a copy of all tables and data to a CSV file for backup purposes, or including CREATE attributes (like phpmyadmin will do with MySQL databases)

Or is there another easier way to just make sure the SQL database can be backed up? At the moment the client is happy with their understanding of the snapshot backup... but I like to plan many disaster recovery ideas, and would just like a little bit extra recovery options just in case someone accidentally overwrites a database entry I can view it from a backup and restore etc.

Any suggestions gratefully received

thanks

Hi everybody, We have installed both SQL 2012 Express and SQL 2012 Standard (licensed). All our instances which we need are running fine on the Express version.
I’m having problems uninstalling the licensed SQL 2012 Standard one. When starting the uninstall process I cannot see which server I’m removing.
My question is: how I can only for sure! remove the SQL 2012 Standard version and keep the Express 2012 working?
Greetings. TIA

Why is rbs_filestream_data_1 so large?

$

Hello,

We recently set up a SharePoint Foundation 2013 server to replace our aging WSS 3.0 instance. I recently found that the version of SQL Express included with SPF is limited to 10GB, and decided to use RBS to save space in SQL. I have since performed all of the necessary configuration and migrated existing SQL data to the RBS blobstore. I was expecting SQL to be using very little space, however it is still using nearly 2.6GB. After digging into the issue further, I have found a single table (rbs_filestream_data_1) in my DB is using most of the space - nearly 2.5GB. Can anyone offer some insight into why this table is so large? Is there anything I can do to make it smaller? Thank you.

Iam doing silent installations often on several Systems.

"SQLManagementStudio_x64_DEU.exe /ACTION=INSTALL /QUIET /IAcceptSQLServerLicenseTerms="True" /FEATURES=CONN,BC,SSMS /indicateprogress"

The installation will take almost an hour to finish. 

I never get error messages or so. The installation afterwards is fine.

Is there a way to speed up the installation process?

Hello all.  I have a table with the following fields:

	[ID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL,
	[ImagesDeleted] [int] NULL,
	[ImagesPublished] [int] NULL,
	[PercentUsed] [decimal](18, 2) NULL,

I'm attempting to update [PercnetUsed] whenver I increment [ImagesDelted] or [ImagesPublished] i'm using the following proc to do so.  However, my [PercentUsed] is not calculating correctly.  Can somebody point me in the right direction?  Thanks in advance!!

ALTER PROC [dbo].[sp_ImageSites_U_ImagesStats]
	@ID INT,
	@Stat NVARCHAR(1)
AS
	SET NOCOUNT ON
	SET XACT_ABORT ON

	BEGIN TRAN;

	DECLARE @imagesPublished INT = (SELECT [ImagesPublished] FROM [ImageSites] WHERE [ID] = @ID)
	DECLARE @imagesDeleted  INT = (SELECT [ImagesDeleted] FROM [ImageSites] WHERE [ID] = @ID)

	if (@Stat = 'D')
	BEGIN
		SET @imagesDeleted = @imagesDeleted + 1
	END
	ELSE IF (@Stat = 'P')
	BEGIN
		SET @imagesPublished = @imagesPublished + 1
	END

	DECLARE @percentUsed DECIMAL(18, 2) = 0;
	if (@imagesDeleted > 0)
		SET @percentUsed = @imagesPublished / @imagesDeleted

	UPDATE [ImageSites]
	SET [ImagesPublished] = @imagesPublished, [ImagesDeleted] = @imagesDeleted, [PercentUsed] = @percentUsed
	WHERE [ID] = @ID

	COMMIT


MS SQL Server 2008 not getting installed properly - MOF compiler could not connect with the WMI server

I am trying to install SQL Server 2008 in my local machine. However, I kept running into errors with the following error message:
"The MOF Compiler could not connect with the WMI Server. This is either because of a semantic error such as an incompatibility with the existing WMI repository or an actual error such as the failure of the WMI Server to start".

I also ran "rundll32 wbemupgd, UpgradeRepository" to rebuild WMI repository, it doesn't help either. I got the same error message. 

Any ideas what settings I need to change in order to ensure a successful installation of SQL Server 2008?

END

CLOSE db_cursor
DEALLOCATE db_cursor


drop table #temp

In most of the tables in my db there are two columns "IsActive" and "IsDeleted" with both of them having default key constraint and of type BIT I am trying to do following:

  1. If column IsDeleted exist, copy its negative values of IsDeleted to IsActive.

  2. If column IsDeleted exist but not IsActive, then create column IsActive, copy negative values of IsDeleted to IsActive, then add default key constraint to the column IsDeleted.

   3.  Finally remove the default value constraint from the column IsDeleted and then drop that column.

I am running above query for each table in db.The above query is running and giving the expected result i.e. copying negative values of IsDeleted to IsActive and dropping the column IsDeleted in all the tables. Only problem is that I am getting errror: "Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'SET'."

Copy realtime data from table1 and inserting as new row in another table

$

I am working on building a website that will allow a user to view the data real-time from multiple PLC devices and show a graph of previous data for each device up to 24 hours.

I think the best way to do this would be to have a table1 that contains the real-time data from each device and the data from that table is logged into a table created for each respective PLC device.

As an example:

Table1 contains the device name, and the currentspeed of the device.

device1 table contains device name and speedhistory of the device.



I am wanting to take the data obtained from Table1 and log it into device1 as a new record to hold the historical speed data to represent in a graph on the webpage. What is the best way to do this?
