Adding Spatial to Existing Database

I am looking for information detailing how to use/implement the
Spatial search to an existing database. Most of the information
I have already read does not indicate how to set up pre-existing
tables. We are using another company's database design within
our product and rather than rebuilding or recreating the current
tables, I would like to see if we could add the indexes without
major changes.
Thanks!

does the existing database design include the storage of spatial
geometry or is it your intention to add spatial data storage
capabilities to an existing design?

Adding replication to an existing database.

I am looking at adding replication to an existing database. This database has lots of existing containers many of them are 1G in size. How will this be handled when the master and client initially start? Will the master just start sending to the client? Is there another option?

Yes. This, and the alternatives, are described in the Ref Guide, on the page entitled "Initializing a new site".

Adding a filed to database impact existing Flex 4 design?

Hi Experts!
with this one week training video I have made a design with mysql , php . I had two tables in mysql and displaying the data in my flex design. Now later point I have added few more fields to my mysql data table, but I am getting an error in flex application. and getting disconnected from DB.
So my question is do I have to redefine all the services, datatypes etc again and do I need to redesign from beginning or is there any easy work around ?
Thanks in advance.
New to Flex

Hi e2dev,
I am using the wizard, when I made change to the database (added a field in
database table) the corresponding "Data Types" in adobe flex did not update.
(even after redoing the retun types using wizard).
So later I created a new service, it created a new "Data Type". I had to use
the new service , and replace all the data type entry of the form/design (by
find/replace)
Thanks,

Adding new field in Database view

Hi,
I am adding a new field to existing database view so only adding is enough or shall I use database utility. Please let me know.
Thanks & Regards,
Joseph

Views are basically, collection of fields from diffrent databse tables.You can define extra selections for fields in a selection view at runtime using dynamic selections. The extra selections are sent to the database and help to minimize the number of database accesses. This works as long as the database tables in the selection include of the logical database are defined for dynamic selections, and that the database program is programmed accordingly.
You can go to SE11, type the name of the view and add the additional field present in any of the tables and activate the view. Once activated the view will reflect the new field added and you can use this for selection purposes.

SSAS Deploy returns error on existing database instead of overwriting

I am aware that this issue has been discussed before. However I have not found a satisfactory answer. I occasionally run into this issue: I have a deployed SSAS database on the server from a project in SSDT. I open the project again at a later
time in SSDT, make some changes such as adding a new attribute to a dimension and deploy with the same name. I get a metadata engine error "Errors in the metadata manager. The database with the name of 'XYZ' already exists in the 'SERVER' server.".
Please note that unlike commonly discussed scenarios, I have not renamed anything. The Database Name property in SSDT matches exactly both the Name and ID properties on the server, and the Deploy Changes Only property is set in SSDT. Why doesn't it
see that I want to overwrite, or at least ask me whether I want to overwrite? Since the ID and Name properties on the server are derived from the Database Name property in SSDT, it is clear I want to overwrite?
I know I can delete the database on the server and deploy successfully, but I don't want to do this. The only way I found of deploying successfully without deleting the database on the server is to change the Database Name property in SSDT (e.g.
by adding a 2 to the original name) then deploy, rename back to the original name then deploy with overwriting, then delete the renamed one from the server.
The fact that I can circumvent the error in this way surely proves the current functionality is a bug?

Hi Charles,
For the error message "Errors in the metadata manager. The database with the name of '' already exists in the '' server",
generally there are two reason that can cause this issue.
Deploy this solution to a different name than your existing database.
Rename the previous database before deploying the new version with the new cube
Please refer to the link below to see the detail information.

Thanks, Pavan MCTS-Microsoft Biztalk Windows Server 2010

Hi,
This error generally arises when your system datetime is not in sync with the Domain Controller datetime. Try following steps:
1. Check if the Windows Time Service is running on your machine or not. Try restarting this service and then restart host instances. Then run your script.
2. If this does not works, have a look at this

Hope this will help.

Use a two steps to use a backup file to restore a database with a new name.
----You need to have a full backup of your database:
--Step 1:
RESTORE FILELISTONLY
FROM DISK = 'C:\bk\TEST.BAK'
--Find out the LogicalName of data file and log file
-- in this case: the data file: TEST and the log file LogicalName: TEST_log
--Both names will be used in the MOVE command
--Step 2:
-- Restore the files for test1.
RESTORE DATABASE test1
FROM DISK = 'C:\bk\TEST.BAK'
WITH RECOVERY,
MOVE 'TEST' TO 'C:\bk\test1_Data.mdf',
MOVE 'TEST_log' TO 'C:\bk\test1_Log.ldf'
GO

Is it possible to set up a form with a submit button where the data in the fields gets added to an existing excel file, just like 'collect response' but without connecting to the internet?

I have a form that I want to use to collect peoples information with a submit button. I am trying to get the data that gets inserted to be added to an existing excel doc when the submit button gets hit, the form then resets and someone else can fill in the same form, hit submit and his data gets added to the existing data in the same excel doc. It is basically the same as the 'collecting response' option but without having to be online. The form is going to be used at a boat-show and I am going to get people to fill it out on an iPad. Does anybody know if this is possible?

You could connect a bunch of 3700s to each computer and do this .
Or...since you're the one who monitors the monthly limit, you could restrict an individual's internet access once you see that you guys are coming too close to the cap.

Creating a new database vs. Using the existing database

Hi,
I have to build a new desktop application over an existing oracle database -
Current database is around 300 gb
Has 1500+ tables
Tables are in denormalized form and has ungrouped table columns
High level of nesting is done in the triggers.
Now before I take decision to use existing database I want to know
1. what factors to consider while choosing between the existing db or a new db?
Thanks in advance.

Some of the things I would consider before including the two desktop applications together:
Would you mind impacting one or the other application (downtime) if you needed to bounce the database for any reason, or if there were issues with the database. Keeping them separate would prevent having to bring down both applications if the database went down for any reason (planned or otherwise).
Would the type of activity in both databases be so similar that all global optimizer and other parameter settings be perfect for both cases?
Would the SLA be the same for both databases? Would your customers agree to impacts of one application data if you had to roll back the database for the other application?
By having the two applications in the same database, you are also stuck with having to wait for both application vendors to certify their product with the next patch level or version for upgrades. Keeping them separate eliminates this problem.
Is there any compelling reason to keep them together?
Personally, I would keep them separate for all of the above reasons, and many more which I did not bother to write.

Based on the error below:

It looks like the installer can't connect to your existing database.
Can you ensure that your listener is servicing the already existing database.
lsnrctl status -> will list services
Make sure the database you want to use as your repository is there.

Members only area setup to query existing database before allowing creation of account

I followed this walkthrough:
Walkthrough: Creating a Web Site with Membership and User Login
It was very helpful in creating the members login area.
My next step is to link it to an existing database, so it will make sure the person who is trying to create an account is in that database. Is this easily done, or not possible?
I also need to know what I should do with the database. Should it be uploaded onto the webserver? It is currently kept in Microsoft Access, but I believe I need to put it into SQL? I apologize, I am not very knowledgeable about databases and how they work.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!

If this is an ACCESS database you will be better of asking this question om access forum.

Use of existing database

I have a database created on disk1 disk2 disk3.
I detach the disks from the original server and attach them to a second server.
I want to install the DB software on this server, but use the existing database.
I tried to install with the option "software only", but couldn't find anywhere how to present the existing DB to the server.
BTW, the OCR and voting disks are on different disks.
Thanks in advance!
P.S. It may be very simple, but I never did that and couldn't find documentation about it.

It should not matter the OS. It's a general issue about what Oracle tool to use to accomplish that.Yes and no. There are differences in what needs to be done to manually create an instance.
For instance, on Windows, you need to use oradim to create a service for the instance, and this isn't necessary on unix/linux.
But if you're looking for a conceptual answer, more than a steb-by-step instruction, you're right, it doesn't matter what os you're on.

Substitution not carried out when WBS is added to an existing project......

Hi, I have created a substitution rule to substitute the investment profile in my projects with a blank for any WBS which is not level one. I am not sure why this rule does not take effect immediately a new WBS is included. When I try to carry out the substitution manually, I get the error message 'Error when processing asset under construction (AuC) for WBS element'. Any ideas how I can get this substituion to work when a new WBS is added to an existing project?

You should use the substitution otherway....
I believe your project is in REL status and also you have defaulted IM profile in the project, so whenever you create a WBSE, the IM profile is inherited to the WBSE and since it is in REL status, the system will create an AUC based on your IM profile and now you are using substituition to remove the IM profile so this will cause the problem...Instead of this....try this...do not default IM profile in project, and instead of removing IM profile for all WBSE which is not level 1, use substitution to write IM profile in WBSE which is only level 1.
