Adding a stored procedure to the master database?

I have a SQL server instance being used as our data warehousing environment. The instance consists of several databases that I am snapshotting as part of our high availability strategy for data. I've created a stored procedure that takes the source database
as an argument and that will create a new snapshot when a new one needs to be created and will also automatically remove the old snapshot. It also updates some synonym tables that point to the new snapshot but that might not be an important detail.
I would like to have the stored procedure stored some place global to all of the databases that I am routinely snapshotting, but that would mean putting it in the master database. Although having it there makes things significantly better in terms of usability,
it seems like there's something wrong with putting any stored procedures in the master database. Am I wrong? Is it OK to put stored procedures there in situations like this?

Yes Database snapshot. We're using it to make our data more available so that when we're refreshing the underlying database we can still access the previous version of the data. Otherwise our reports and applications won't have access to the data or will
get partial data sets. We don't intend to use it for DR or as a backup.
ok. if it is for temporary purpose, it will work..
you can create one master procedure and do that - master database. but you need to make sure you point your applications/reports to the snapshot database and not actual database
Hope it Helps!!

Adding a stored Procedure to the Report

Hi,
I am developing a report using crystal plugin in eclipse.I have problems in adding a stored procedure to the report .I write the following command in SQL SCRAPBOOK dbo.StoredProcedure @Param1="param1",@Param2="param2",@Param3="None" and run it. It runs successfully ,but when i try to add it to report nothing is being added to it.
I am using a Sybase database and driver(com.sybase.jdbc3.jdbc.SybXADataSource)
Any suggestions regarding this would be of great help.
Thanks in advance

Hmm, not sure about stored procedures, but you can get SQL queries to work like below....
@method to get ResultSet from SQL query with user, pwd, and dbConnectionInfo
@param query, scrollType, user, password, dbName, db
@throws SQLException
@throws ClassNotFoundException
         private static ResultSet getResultSetQueryDBInfo(String query, int scrollType, String user, String password, String dbName, String db)
         throws SQLException, ClassNotFoundException
              String DBUSERNAME = user;
              final String DBPASSWORD = password;
              final String CONNECTION_URL = "jdbc:oracle:thin:@" + dbName + ":1521:" + db;
              Connection connection = DriverManager.getConnection(CONNECTION_URL, DBUSERNAME, DBPASSWORD);
              DatabaseMetaData meta = connection.getMetaData();
              System.out.println("getResultSetQueryDBInfo - Connected to URL : " + meta.getURL());
              System.out.printf("getResultSetQueryDBInfo - as user: %s\n", meta.getUserName() );
              Statement statement = connection.createStatement(scrollType, ResultSet.CONCUR_READ_ONLY);
              System.out.println("getResultSetQueryDBInfo method - executing query: \n");
              return statement.executeQuery(query);

How do you declare objects in the master database

I am trying to register our CLR assembly as an unsafe assembly without having to make the database trustworthy. Since making the database is_trustworthy_on = 1 is not a best practice, and would cause some of our customers (and our development process)
a little bit of grief.
I have read a ton about it but am still having trouble.
The reason the assembly is 'Unsafe' is because it is calling the TimeZoneInfo class to convert between timezones, since we are not yet on UTC dates. We plan to in the future but that's a big project.
We are also not using the 'SQLCLR' but rather have written our own class library and just have a project reference to it, which works just the same, but we have found to be better for the C# programmers.
I am playing with signing the assembly using an SNK file and have figured out what I need to do, including 1) creating a master key, 2) creating an asymmetric key using the same SNK file that signed the assembly, 3) creating a login for the asymmetric key,
and 4) granting unsafe assembly to the login.
When I do all that with straight SQL, it actually works! But I am having trouble fitting this into our SSDT world.
Should I create a separate SSDT project for items #1 through #4 above, and reference it, and check 'Include composite objects' in our publishing options? As stated in this blog post though, I'm terrified of messing up the master database, and I'm not
excited about the overhead of another project, a 2nd dacpac, etc.
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/ssdt/archive/2012/06/26/composite-projects-and-schema-compare.aspx
Since we do use a common set of deployment options in a deployment tool we wrote, which does set the 'block on data loss' to false, and the 'drop objects not in source' to true, b/c we drop tables all the time during the course of refactoring, etc.
I don't want to drop anything in master though, and I don't want to have to publish it separately if we didn't have to.
I suppose I could just have some dynamic SQL in a pre-deployment script that takes care of the master database, but I was trying to do it the 'right' way, in a declarative style, but struggling.
So, in short, what's the recommended approach for getting an 'unsafe' CLR assembly into an SSDT project?
The error that started all this was:
CREATE ASSEMBLY for assembly *** failed because assembly *** is not authorized for PERMISSION_SET = UNSAFE.
The assembly is authorized when either of the following is true:
the database owner (DBO) has UNSAFE ASSEMBLY permission and the database has the TRUSTWORTHY database property on;
or
the assembly is signed with a certificate or an asymmetric key that has a corresponding login with UNSAFE ASSEMBLY permission.
Also, would a certificate be better than an asymmetric key? I'm not entirely sure of the difference just yet to be honest.
Thanks,
Ryan

After much fighting with this, figured something out as a workaround, and thought I'd share it.
First, I'm pretty certain the SSDT declarative way for these master objects just doesn't work yet.
My workaround was to make a pre-deployment script (that runs when we create new databases, as well as for the current release), that takes care of the security items needed to support a signed CLR assembly with unsafe permissions.
One issue we were running into was when it came to creating the asymmetric key, there are 4 ways to do so, and we didn't want to depend on a hard-coded/absolute file path. The 4 ways are "From file", "from external file", "from
assembly", or "from provider". I still don't 100% understand the from provider way, but ultimately we are actually using the from assembly way, with a little trick/hack I did that allows us to not have to use the 'from file' way and to
reference a hard-coded path on someone's C:\ drive. I really really didn't want to do that b/c we create local dev databases all the time and not everyone has the same paths setup. Also, our databases are deployed on our servers as well as remote-hosted-customer
servers, and up until now, the database release has not needed file system access. Even the CLR itself is created using assembly_bits, which is awesome.
So I thought of something...
What if I had a simple/temporary assembly, which I create from assembly_bits, use to import the public key from, through the create asymmetric key from assembly command, and then drop as if it never existed?
Well...it works!
Here is my current prototype of a pre-deployment script, which I'll go through and cleanup more, but thought I'd share. I also want to document how I created the temporary assembly_bits in case anyone ever wants or needs to know, even though they really
shouldn't. But it should make them feel better. Basically I just created did this to get them:
1 - Created a C# Class Library project in the solution.
2 - Added our .SNK to that project and removed the 'Class1.cs' that it created by default
3 - Signed that class library with the .SNK
4 - Added a project reference to that class library from the main database solution.
5 - Generated a deployment script (but didn't run it) and grabbed the create assembly statement (copy/paste)
6 - Deleted the temporary project
7 - Pasted the code I had copy/pasted into the pre-deployment script
Note that the objects do apparently need to go into MASTER, so at the end of the pre deployment script, I switch back to the automatic [$(DatabaseName)] after first having done USE master.
Hope this helps someone. Finally got it!
BTW - The other way we almost used was to introduce a SqlCmdVariable of $StrongNameKeyFilePath but that would have been a hassle for people to set whenever they got a new machine, etc.
Thanks,
Ryan

Is it possible to execute a stored procedure using the JDBC adapter?

Hi all,
Can anybody confirm whether we can execute a stored procedure created in a database using the processing parameters of a JDBC adapter of a communication channel?
If yes, then please let me know how (may be with an example)
Thanks.

Yes, that is possible. You have to chose EXECUTE in the action field to execute the stored procedure. Here's a little piece on the JDBC receiver:
JDBC Receiver
For writing data to an SQL database you also need to define a strict data type. The general format is like this:
    <ns:MT_RECORDSET>
          <STATEMENT>
               <TABLE_NAME ACTION="">
                    <TABLE/>
                    <ACCESS>
                         <FIELD1/>
                         <FIELD2/>
                         <FIELDn/>
                    </ACCESS>
                    <KEY>
                         <ID compareOperation=""/>
                         <FIELDx compareOperation=""/>
                    </KEY>
               </TABLE_NAME>
          </STATEMENT>
</ns:MT_RECORDSET>
This recordset represents an SQL statement like "update TABLE1 set FIELD1=123, FIELD2=456, FIELDn='xyz' where ID=12345 and FIELDx is NULL"
MT_RECORDSET is the name of the Message Type used.
For the value of the attribute ACTION you can choose from the following values:
     UPDATE : updates the given fields in the table with their new values
     INSERT : insert the given fields as a new row in the table
     UPDATE_INSERT : insert rows in the table when update is not possible
     DELETE : deletes given fields from the table
     SELECT : selects given fields from the table. Note that this option returns a response in the JDBC Sender form!
     EXECUTE : execution of a stored SQL procedure
     SQL_QUERY | SQL_DML : option to transfer more complex SQL statements to the database
The attribute compareOperation can have the following values:
     EQ : equal
     NEQ : not equal
     LT : less than
     LTEQ : less than or equal to
     GT : greater than
     GTEQ : greater than or equal to
     LIKE : used to compare strings

Run a Stored procedure in Orchestrator Query Database

I dont see an option where a stored procedure can run in Database query.
Instead of putting a query, I would like to have a stored procedure run at different intervals and then send out the notification.
If it is not in Database Query, Where do I find an option for Stored proc.?

HI Sd,
You need to do following for using Stored procedure as polling statement
1. Right click the project and select Add-->Add Generated Items
2. Then select "Consume Adapter Service"
3. Now the Consume Adapter Service wizard wants us to provide it the required information, so firstly select "sqlbinding" against the label Select a binding.
4. Click the Configure button, on security tab select the Client credential type .
5. On URI Properties tab:
      -->Type the name of the server where your database is located
     --> Provide the name of the database you want to use.
    --> In front of InboundId , type the name whatever you want so as to identify the purpose of polling. It acts as a unique identifier which helps in avoiding conflict when you poll same tables for some other purpose.
6. Binding Properties tab:
     Select Polling from the dropdown list in front of InboundOperationType
   Give a valid PolledDataAvailableStatement such as (Select count (*) from table1)
"exec MyStoreProcedureName" from receive location polling statment
Thanks

Is it possible to create a new table in the master database with SSMS ?

Hello ,
I have problems with this thread :
http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sqlexpress/thread/5153c43b-7844-41c4-a414-d14730abe435/
If no user database has been created , in SSMS , we can see only the 5 system databases ( master, msdb , tempdb... ).
Logically , the user should connect automatically on the Master database ( if the user is the same as this used to install a new SQL Server instance, this user should be sysadmin that's to say he/she has all possible permissions and especially dbcreator ).
Is it true that it is impossible to create a new table on the master database ?
I have done many researches about this possibility , all I have found is the advice : don't touch to the master database. This database is used to store critical information about the instance and its user databases. Even in the last book of Kalen Delaney
about SQL Server 2012 Internals , I have found nothing clear about the creation of tables in this database ( and what about the other system databases ? I am excluding tempdb ).
If someone has an idea about this thread and my questions , I would be thankful for a reply on this thread or on the related thread in the SQL Server Express Forum ( with my poor written English , I am not sure to have poster in a correct and understandable
way ).
If you think that this thread is not in the good forum , a moderator of this forum can move this related thread ( I have not done the move as I am not sure which is the good forum Database Engine or Transact-SQL ... )
Thanks beforehand and have a nice day.
Mark Post as helpful if it provides any help.Otherwise,leave it as it is.

>>Logically , the user should connect automatically on the Master database ( if the user is the same as this used
to >>install a new SQL Server instance, this user should be sysadmin that's to say he/she has all possible permissions and >>especially dbcreator ).
If you add the current user during the installation you can have it as system admin , or you can add him/her later on
in SQL Server. BTW regarding dbcreator I have wrote some blog , need to read... :-)
http://sqlblog.com/blogs/uri_dimant/archive/2010/09/02/be-careful-to-grant-dbcreator-server-role-to-the-user.aspx
You can (if you have needed permissions) to create objects in master database, usually I create objects for instance maintenance (like rebuild indexes...)

Why can't I edit the Master Database

Can someone from NI please explain the reasoning behind not letting the user edit the master database? I want to do something simple like remove one of the redundant + and "dot" polarity indicators on some of the capacitor footprints without having to, one by one, change each capacitor to use my custom footprint.
I have found several errors in the master database yet I can't fix those parts or footprints or remove them, thus increasing the likely hood that they will get used by mistake/unknowingly again.
The only explanation that I can come up with is poor database design and fear of me "breaking" it. Something as simple as editing a part through the GUI should be simple enough to do to, please let me. No offense, but your master database is not good enough to warrant "no edits". Most parts I use are from the local database, but that is not an option for special case parts like resistors and capacitors.
Also, why I can't edit the database itself without using the GUI? (as is an option in all other CAD packages that I've used). The GUI entry point is extremely time consuming and error prone when a database script can often easily create error/typo free part numbers using existing symbols and footprints.
Greg

There are several ways you can achieve the results you looking for with respect to RLCs.
Ultiboard first searchs the User then Corporate the Master database when looking for footprints. So, if you want to make a modification to a footprint, make the copy the appropriate in Ultiboard into your User database. Then modify the footprint. When you transfer from Multisim to Ultiboard, Ultiboard will pick the footprint you customized (or fixed).
One thing to watch out for is determining the correct name in Ultiboard. The name in Multisim is often not the name in Ultiboard. I don't know of any simple way of determing the mapping.
Place the component with the footprint that you want to change (in Multisim)
Double click the component, and click Edit Footprint on the Value page
Click Select from Database. The footprint should be selected. The name in Ultiboard is the Ultiboard Footprint column (if it is blank, then the name in Multisim and Ultiboard is the same).
You can add new footprints to the list in the Place Component dialog. You do this in the Database Manager.
Go to Tools > Database > Database Manager
Select the RLC Components tab
Click the Add button to add a new definition. Note, the definition will appear for all components of the same type. Also watch out for the polarity of capacitors and other components where relevant.

Stored procedure ignore the synonym

I have defined 2 user : usr1 and usr2 and I have 2 table table1 and table2.
I define one synonym for table1 that for the usr2 is link to table2.
If I run sqlplus80 connect whit usr1 and I execute 'Select * from table1'
the query run correctly on table1.
If I run sqlplus80 connect whit usr2 and I execute 'Select * from table1'
the query run correctly on table2.
After I wrote a stored procedure with the same query.
If I execute the strored procedure from sqlplus80 connect with usr1 It work correclty with table1.
If I execute the stored procedure from sqlplus80 connect with usr2 It don't work because contine to work with table1, it seem that don't use the synonym.

Forms - Calls to stored procedures instead of standard database actions

After discovering Reports, I'm now getting started with Forms in APEX. :)
While I like the basic functionalities offered by the different Wizards, there's one thing that bothers me. After creating your form, you basically get 3 buttons (not counting cancel) for the different actions, each corresponding with a Database Action (SQL INSERT/UPDATE/DELETE). This is nice, but it's not exactly what I want. I would like to replace the direct database actions by calls to stored procedures (in a package), one for each action. It would be nice, of course, to keep the Wizard advantages, especially considering the fact I would like to find a standard, easy way to create forms. So, basically, I would like to create my forms this way, but instead of linking the button to a predefined database action, have it call a stored procedure. Is this somehow possible and what would be the easiest way to realize this?
I'm running APEX 4.0.1.00.03 on an Oracle XE database.
Erwin

Okay, this was working nicely. But I must be missing something...
I made an (interactive) report and added two link columns, one for the update and one for the delete (the insert is handled by a non-row related create button). I also created 3 forms on a procedure, one for each action (I/U/D). Now, when I call my form page from the report, I want to pass the values of the different columns of the selected record to this form, so the user can view and adapt them. Seems quite logical to me. There's only one problem. The column link seems to be limited to 3 items? Euh... am I missing something or is this not the way to do this.
Let me illustrate this with an example.
I created an UPDATE form, linked to a procedure to modify a given city.
This procedure has the following parameters:
- ID (hidden on the form)
- PROVINCE
- ZIP CODE
- NAME
- DESCRIPTION
On the other hand, I have my report which gives an overview of the cities. This report has the following columns:
- ID
- PROVINCE
- ZIP CODE
- NAME
- DESCRIPTION
I also added 2 empty columns to contain the UPDATE and DELETE links. Basically, I just use these to place a nice icon for the different actions.
Now, when I click on one of these icons, I want to pass the field values of the selected row to my form. In this case, that means I want to pass 5 values to the 5 items of my form. BUT, under the link column, I see only 3 items? Am I missing something really stupid or am I handling this the wrong way?

Creating stored procedures is not allowed in Master Database. You have to switch to Database
PPSC_Sky_Data manually, use statement is not supported. After that could you please confirm again? As Creating and altering Stored procedures work fine from my SSMS.

URGENT: Java stored procedure on oracle 92 database is not working

Hi,
I am having an issue regarding java stored procedures. I have created a java class that uses the bouncycastleprovider ( bcprov-jdk13-141.jar ) to encrypt strings. I tested against the version of the java virtual machine that comes bundled with oracle and it works perfectly. I then used JDeveloper to load the class on the database with the resolve, noverify and order flags checked and it shows no errors but when I try to execute the stored procedure it throws the following exception:
java.lang.ExceptionInInitializerError:
java.lang.SecurityException: Cannot set up certs for trusted CAs: java.net.MalformedURLException: no protocol: US_export_policy.jar
at javax.crypto.SunJCE_b.<clinit>(DashoA6275)
at javax.crypto.Cipher.a(DashoA6275)
at javax.crypto.Cipher.getInstance(DashoA6275)
at RijndaelEnhanced.encrypt(RijndaelEnhanced.java:57)
at RijndaelEnhanced.encrypt(RijndaelEnhanced.java:73)
I loaded jce1_2_2.jar, sunjce_provider.jar, bcprov-jdk13-141.jar. Also replaced the US_export_policy.jar, local_policy.jar with the unrestrictive version. I add the security provider dinamically with a call to Security.insertProviderAt(new org.bouncycastle.jce.provider.BouncyCastleProvider(), 2);
I also did a select on the user_objects table and all the classes are in VALID status.
When I run my application using the java virtual machine that is located under C:\Oracle\oracli9i\jdk\jre\bin directory it works fine but when I try to execute on the database it won't work. I found a bug that was if the jce1_2_1.jar file existed in the C:\Oracle\oracli9i\jdk\jre\lib\ext directory ( even if it's extension is renamed ) it won't work because the certification file had expired but I don't know if this has anything to do with this error.
Am I missing something?
Please I need an urgent solution to this problem.
Thanks in advance.

Can't see my Oracle stored procedure in the avalable data source list

Hello All,

Still haven't solved this. Here's another try at a screenshot, showing just below this text for me, of my Library interface showing the C drive listed in the left panel and not showing the C drive contents. Only, as you said is intended, what is already in Lightroom.
I thought if I was not in "Catalog" I had been able, in the past, to select from anything in my C crive simply by opening that folder in the panel.
When I click import it is usually - from memory - to start the import of the already selected items. For a time that's what was happening from the above screen if I selected Import. It would apparently start re-importing the selected items and without presenting the usual familiar dialog asking about file naming, etc. Now, however, clicking Import bring up this:
Never saw this black horizontal dialog box before this situation arose. I was able to import but not as usual and I would like to get back the square (moreso at least) "white" dialog box. No clue what's going on or how to get bact to familiar ground. Ideas?

Stored Procedure in MS Access Database

Hi,
I am using MS Access Database 2007 to develop a Reporting Application. I would like to know whether Stored Procedures can be created in MS Access Database.
The requirement that I am working on is to compute and populate a view in MS Access database based on values in two other tables. This procedure has to happen every month when the source tables are updated.
Any help in this regard is appreciated.

This is an interesting question. I have never done this, but just Googled it. Apparently you can develop SPs in MS Access 2010 and later. Access 2010 has both stored procedures, and also has table triggers.
For access 2010, you open up the table (non design view), and then choose the table tab. You see options there to create store procedures and table triggers.
Here's a screen shot from one of my DBs:
Would you need to do this? Probably not. I've been using Access for 15+ years and never had a need for this kind of thing...even though it's been around for a much shorter time.
You cannot create a view in MS Access, it is not supported. However, you can create a query to return the data that you need. It sounds like you're coming here with a SQL Server background.
Anyway, you'd probably use a VBA function to do what you need to do. What, exactly, are you trying to do?
Knowledge is the only thing that I can give you, and still retain, and we are both better off for it.
