Hi all. 

I need to call a SP residing on SERVER1 from server2. Normally I would create a linked server from server2 pointing at server1. If I wish not to use a linked server to achive the same what other possibillities do I have ? 

I want to access my DB on AWS RDS Postgres from the SQL Server. I have made the linked Server connection, connection was successfully established and I can see the AWS RDS Postgres tables. However, when I try to run the query through SSMS, i get the following Error.

I have already tried SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(DRIQ, 'SELECT TOP 100 FROM dr_iq.users') with no success. I have also unchecked the 'BOOL as Char' in the advanced option of datasource in the driver setting of 'system DNS'.

Please suggest any solution

Hi

I have tried to figure this problem for some time now, and cannot get my head around it :-(

I am using MS SQL 2019 CU4 Std.

I want to use Cross Database Ownership Chaining between a couple of my databases, It works perfect if i:

• Grant Connect to the Guest account
• Grant connect to the AD user directly
• Grant Connect to the AD Group [Domain Users]

But it does not work if i:

• Grant Connect to an AD Group, where the user is a member

I have tried with more users but it fails always when I Grant connect to an AD group :-(

Does anyone have any idea how to solve this problem?

Hello,

We have Azure SQL Database with one of the column is been encrypted using ColumnEncryption features. CMK is stored in AzureKeyVault.

To perform copy between Source database to Sink database, we had to host a Self-Hosted Integration runtime with following packages into windows container.

1. vc_redist.x64
2. odbc 17 x64
3. IntegrationRuntime x64
4. .NET Framework 4.8 runtime x64

In ADF we have create 3 ODBC linked service pulling connection string from KeyVault, below is the connection string format we have usedODBC SQL Connection string: Driver={ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server};Server=tcp:<sqlservername>.database.windows.net;Database=<databaseName>;ColumnEncryption=Enabled;KeyStoreAuthentication=KeyVaultClientSecret;KeyStorePrincipalId=<redacted>;KeyStoreSecret=<redacted>

both source and destination is having similar connection string, however, when we run the Copy Activity, source is successfully able to pull the data and decrypt the column data, but when activity is trying to write the data to the table via the sink we get following error

{
    "errorCode": "2200",
    "message": "Failure happened on 'Sink' side. ErrorCode=UserErrorOdbcOperationFailed,'Type=Microsoft.DataTransfer.Common.Shared.HybridDeliveryException,Message=ERROR [22018] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server][SQL Server]Operand type clash: nvarchar(max) encrypted with (encryption_type = 'DETERMINISTIC', encryption_algorithm_name = 'AEAD_AES_256_CBC_HMAC_SHA_256', column_encryption_key_name = '<redacted>', column_encryption_key_database_name = '<redacted>') is incompatible with nvarchar(19) encrypted with (encryption_type = 'DETERMINISTIC', encryption_algorithm_name = 'AEAD_AES_256_CBC_HMAC_SHA_256', column_encryption_key_name = '<redacted>', column_encryption_key_database_name = '<redacted>')\r\nERROR [42000] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server][SQL Server]Statement(s) could not be prepared.,Source=Microsoft.DataTransfer.ClientLibrary.Odbc.OdbcConnector,''Type=Microsoft.DataTransfer.ClientLibrary.Odbc.Exceptions.OdbcException,Message=ERROR [22018] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server][SQL Server]Operand type clash: nvarchar(max) encrypted with (encryption_type = 'DETERMINISTIC', encryption_algorithm_name = 'AEAD_AES_256_CBC_HMAC_SHA_256', column_encryption_key_name = 'CEK_Auto10', column_encryption_key_database_name = '<redacted>') is incompatible with nvarchar(19) encrypted with (encryption_type = 'DETERMINISTIC', encryption_algorithm_name = 'AEAD_AES_256_CBC_HMAC_SHA_256', column_encryption_key_name = '<redacted>', column_encryption_key_database_name = '<redacted>')\r\nERROR [42000] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server][SQL Server]Statement(s) could not be prepared.,Source=msodbcsql17.dll,'",
    "failureType": "UserError",
    "target": "Copy To Staging",
    "details": []
}

what i understand is ODBC driver is overwriting my flag ColumnEncryption=Enabled to ColumnEncryption=ResultsetOnly;

What am I missing here?

I have used Authentication=KeyVaultClientSecret and ClientId has all the required permission on KeyVaults; 

I posted this in the Community Form and they suggested I repost here...

I am unclear how to work within the MS framework for this.  Or what approach I should consider.  

In simplest terms I can, the issue is I have a SQL Server on premise.  I use MS Access as a front end tool to SQL for ease of development.  My field techs are using PowerApps to update the SQL Server in real time.  Clients are completing forms to register in SQL Server.  All this is great and with a bit more time will all be working completely.

I am now moving onto suppliers.  For suppliers I would like to issue them a form similar to the client i.e. name, address, phone etc.  However I then have an associated table in SQL Server for AssociatedDetails.

AssociatedDetails are things like Road Freight Charges, Minimum Order Value, Prompt Payment Discounts etc.

Any supplier may offer/charge one or more associated item.  For example a supplier call him Fred, offers a prompt payment discount of 5% for orders over $500.00, charges a road freight charge of $30.00 a delivery and has a minimum order of $150.00.  Another supplier call him John may only have a flat freight charge of $40.00.  Yet another supplier call them Other have a road freight charge, a 3 kg air bag charge, a 5 kg air bag charge etc.

I went to Forms to make a form with a plan to use a Flow to pop back to SQL, and realised this wont work for the above possibilities.  The form structure relies on each supplier offering the same things and whilst this approach is perhaps possible with a complete listing of all the different options in AssociatedDetails it isn't a very elegant approach.

What other options are there for a public editable form?  A PowerApp could do this but is limited to only my team.  

Have a data extraction SQL that reads data from multiple tables. Most payroll numbers occupy only one position but Person D and F have unique Payroll number but occupy two positions.

Since Person D and F have more than one position they are retrieved twice I need to retrieve only one position, the first one will do. 

My SQL goes via tables PERSON >> POSITION >> PAYROLL >> etc.

Any assistance much appreciated.

Hi, everybody!

The Situation:
This is a followup to a question I asked before regarding linked server.

I created a linked server to a DB2 database using the IBM OLEDB Provider for DB2 (“IBMDADB2”). The creation of the linked server returned no error.

When I submit the command
UPDATE DB_Test.Database.Schema.Table SET Column=N'f****t' WHEREID= 1--or alternatively the command below
UPDATE DB_Test.Database.Schema.Table SET Column='f****t' WHEREID= 1

 I receive the error message
OLE DB provider "IBMDADB2.DB2COPY" for linked server "DB2_TEST" returned message "[DB2] SQL0332N　Character conversion from the source code page "1208" to the target code page "65534" is not supported.　SQLSTATE=57017".
OLE DB provider "IBMDADB2.DB2COPY" for linked server "DB2_TEST" returned message "[DB2] SQL0332N　Character conversion from the source code page "1208" to the target code page "65534" is not supported.　SQLSTATE=57017".
Msg 7320, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Cannot execute the query "UPDATE "Database"."Schema"."Table" set "Column" = G'f****t'　WHERE "ID"=(1)" against OLE DB provider "IBMDADB2.DB2COPY" for linked server "DB2_TEST".

The Problem:
Please note the UPDATE statement returned by the error message: SQL Server added a “G” to the string ‘f****t’, which indicates a character conversion to a DB2 specific data type called “Graphics”.  According to my experiments in Visual Studio with ADO.NET and the provider IBMDADB2 the additional “G” produces this error; the same command without the “G” works out fine! Visual Studio uses the provider and does not show up with an additional “G” when using the UPDATE statement described above.

The update of a number or date based column works fine, too!!!!

My Question:
How can I avoid the addition of the “G” to the string when using linked servers?

I am using:
OS: Windows 2008 R2 64 bit
DB: SQL Server 2008 64 bit
DAM: IBMDADB2 64 bit

This is the linked server definition:

Hello, could somebody help me in using "like" statement in filtering DATE field in SQL SERVER table. Namely, in C# web application, I have this date format e.g., 20-Dec-19 while, in SQL SERVER table it is written as: 2019-12-20!

Having on mind that I need to filter e.g., all the dates from a year e.g., from 2020.year. Further on, upon having performed copy/paste of date format from the SQL SERVER 2014 table, into Filter column while in EDIT table option, it is converted into this format: '12/20/2019'. I am having troubles to figure out which is which in mentioned issue:

Please, what to do to filter e.g., all the dates from the selected year?

thank you!

Hi all,

I´m trying to create a linked server to a Sybase database (.db file) so i can create some reports in sql 2005 (with Reporting Services and Report Designer). After reading all articles I did the following.

1) Installe Adaptive Server Anyhwere (Interactive Sql) 9.0.2 on the server.

2) Created a USER DSN to the Db file (Control Panel - odbc connections) and it works fine: The Settings for the ODBC are:

• ODBC Tab
  • Data Source Name: dbNOM
• Login Tab
  • Supply userID and Password: (selected)
  • User ID: DBA
  • Password: SQL
• Database Tab
  • Server Name: dbNOM
  • StartLine: C:\Program Files\Sybase\SQL Anywhere 9\win32\dbeng9.exe
  • Database Name: (blank)
  • Database File: c:\Project Folder\DataBase.db

As I said, when i go for "test connection", works fine.

3) Sql Management Studio - Object Explorer - Server Objects - New Linked Server, with settings as following:

• General
  • Linked Server: lkDbNom
  • Server Type: Other Data Source
  • Provider: Sybase Adaptive Server Anywhere Provider 9.0
  • Product Name: Sybase
  • Product Name: dbNom (the dsn name, right?)
• Security
  • Be made using this security context.- Remote Login: DBA; Password: SQL (same as DSN)

All other settings, as default, click in OK and shows no errors (aparently it creates the linked server successfully). But when i try to query the linked server with:

And i get the following message:

Even better, if i go to the Object Explorer - Server Objects, i test the connection and it´s ok, but when i try to retrieve the catalog an error displays:

So, i really don´t understand what is missing in my linked server, i tried with MDASQL (OLEDB for ODBC) but it doesn´t even completes to create the linked server.

The database file is ok because, because in another server (one that doesn´t have SQL, only visual studio) i did the following:

Any ideas?

P.S.

Hi there,

When using the new SQL Server, our Access Front End throws different writing conflict errors when executing code that involves writing to a table that contains a SQL Server trigger. If I disable the trigger no errors are generated.

But curiously enough, the VBA code that inserts/updates the record is successful, and so are the table updates that the trigger actions.

So it seems to me that this is a bug.

Any help,

Thanks

Helo,

I am new to SQL Server and I am trying to connect remotely from a server (A-SERV) to my SQL Server (B-SERV) with PowerShell.

It fails every time.

Here is my little code:

$sqlConn = New-Object System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection
$sqlConn.ConnectionString = “Server=B-SERV;Integrated Security=false;User ID = 'XXXXXXXXXX' ; Password = 'XXXXXXXXXX' ;Initial Catalog=XXXXX; trusted_connection = true”
$sqlConn.Open()
Invoke-Sqlcmd -Query "SELECT * FROM [mdt].[dbo].[deploiements]"
$sqlConn.Close()

The weird thing is that I can connect with SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) from A-SERV and do it manualy.

The second thing is that my PowerShell script works fine when launched on the database server (B-SERV), but not from A-SERV.

"allow remote connections to this server" is ticked in SSMS server's properies.

I am lost and a noob. Any clue ?
scuz my english.

I created a flutter applications and plans to use Azure postgresql as the database. I used a dart package that connects with the database. Package is called postgres 2.1.1. However, as I try to connect, it prompts an error postgresql Severity.error : Unsupported authentication type 3, closing connection.I have disabled ssl and configured the firewall, opened port 1433 but to no avail. I was able to connect to the database via pgadmin but not through the package. Error throws at line 2. 

var connection = new PostgreSQLConnection("postgresqlgreen.postgres.database.azure.com", 5432, "postgresqlgreen", username: "greenscanneradmin@postgresqlgreen", password: {admin_password});


await connection.open();

Hi, we have a client using SQL Server 2016 using the High Availability option (they are using primary and secondary servers). We are having problems (intermittently) when our client application connects (we get a State:S1T00 error). It looks like our client is using a SQL Server ODBC driver v10.

Is it possible to use this driver for connection when using SQL Server High Availability, or do we have to use a later driver (ie, v11 or above)? The client does connect, but it seems to be intermittent (and I'm wondering if it's not connecting when the High Availabilty is maybe switching between primary and secondary?). 

Thanks, Peter

Hello everyone,

 I have a question about settings of our Azure SQL database.

We have default settings.

Allow Azure Services and resources to access this server = YES

And we also have defined some IP addresses.

My question is, if we have "allow azure services and resources to access this server = yes" if there is possibility, that someone who stole/hack password login to SQL database, should access to this database via some Azure vPC, or Azure APP.

For standard users, there are IP ranges, but if somebody try to connect via some Azure service from another subcription, is it possible, or he cant connect, because isnt defined in IP adress range, and only services from same subscription could connect to this SQL.

There are 3 potential situations:

app/vPC from same subscription - is it possible to hack SQL ?

app/vPC from another subscription, but same tenant - is it possible to hack SQL ?

app/vPC from another subscription and another tenant - is it possible to hack SQL ?

Thank you for clarify it.

The docker container gets environment variables passed:

DB=mysql
   MYSQL_HOST=<MySQL hostname>
   MYSQL_PORT=<Port>
   MYSQL_USER=<Username>
   MYSQL_PASSWORD=<your secret>
   MYSQL_DB=<NameOfDatabases>

https://hub.docker.com/r/simplifierag/runtime

But pre-handshake fails. Firewall rules allows azure instances and my client IP to access the DB, also the docker container IP is allowed. How can I achieve access to the SQL DB on the Azure SQL Server?
