From SharePoint Content Database, Using SQL-Server Query how to fetch the 'Document GUID' based on 'Content Type'

I want to get all the documents based on content type using SQL Server Query. I know that, querying the content database without using API is not advisable, but still i want to perform this action through SQL Server Query. Can someone assist ?

You're right, it's not advisable, may result in corruption of your databases and might impact performance and stability. But assuming you're happy to do that then it is possible.
Before you go down that route, have you considered using something more safe like PowerShell? I've seen a script exactly like the one you describe and it would take far less time to do it through PS than it would through SQL.

    Sorry, missed the message from the errorlog in the original post. You shouldn't have included that big .Net dump that hid the important facts. :-)
    My first Google attempt on that message (which I have never seen before) suggests that the TCP Enpoint is stopped, so try this:

  • Install SharePoint 2013 database on SQL server 2012 SP1 cluster

    Good Day all,
    We are trying to install SharePoint 2013 database on a SQL server 2012 Enterprise with SP1 cluster (configured for mixed mode) but the connection is not working (times out). We can telent the SQL cluster network name on port 1433 and we made
    a UDL connection file, test the connection via windows authentication and it is working, but if we use the sql authentication it is not working.
    Also we have two SharePoint 2013 servers connected via NLB.
    Any idea about this issue guys?  

    event if 3355 means 3 things:
    The SQL Server might be offline.
    The SharePoint Foundation database access account might not have the necessary permissions to communicate with the SQL Server.
    A firewall that runs on either the local server or on SQL Server might be blocking network communications.
    Big question, how you trying to connect SQL  windows or sql authentication? is it throwing error on Config wizard or somewhere else?

    I have a copy of Windows Media Player database that nolonger relates to actual files.

  • Cannot protect SharePoint farm that uses SQL server IP address instead of hostname?

    Hello, I am trying to configure DPM 2012 R2 protection for a SharePoint 2013 farm. The DPM agent was installed on the WFE and SQL server and they are reporting a "OK" status from the DPM console. ConfigureSharePoint.exe -EnableSharePointProtection
    was also ran on the WFE. When I try to set up my protection group and expand the WFE server I get the following error:
    "DPM cannot protect some of your datasources until you install agents on the following servers : 10.1.1.12. (ID: 956)"
    That IP address is the SharePoint SQL server IP address. For whatever reason the person who installed this SharePoint farm configured it with the IP address of the SQL server instead of a DNS name.
    I know the DPM agent is working properly on both servers because I can enumerate their volumes and databases. I'm certain this error is due to SharePoint using an IP address for the SQL server instead of a DNS name or alias. Is there a workaround for this?

    The fix for this may be to add SQL server client on the frontend and then add aliases for 32 and 64bit to the backend sql servers.

  • Is this the right way to implement a database using SQL Server Express?

    Purchase a single central server (if you don’t have one already) and house it in the Wild Wood Apartments headquarters located in San Francisco, California
    Purchase and install Windows Server 2012 Datacenter onto this single central server.
    Along with the Windows Server 2012 Datacenter, you will have to purchase a license called Client Access License or commonly referred to as CAL
    Install SQL Server Express onto this single central server as well
    You will then need to install remote desktop access to each computer in the 20 building complexes Wild Wood Apartments owns. This allows each complex manager to access SQL Server Express on their computer and input information into the database.
    Is there anything that I would have to add on or include, am I missing something, or is something incorrect?
    Thank you

     This allows each complex manager to access SQL Server Express on their computer and input information into the database.
    Yes, but application software must be developed or purchased.
    Your design would work for a small scale database and application. More likely you need a pay SS product such as Standard Edition.

  • How to set the document language based on the contents of a text variable?

    In my Indesign documents, I use a text variable in which I type the abbreviation of the document language according ISO639-1 (e.g. EN, DE, ES, ...). I'd like to have a JavaScript that checks this text variable every time the document is opened and then sets the Language property of my Normal paragraph style, but I don't have any experience with JavaScript.
    Can someone help me please?
    PS: I use InDesign CS5.5.

    Hi Todd,
    I believe ES4 sp1 allows you to do this, but I don't have that version so aren't sure.  I follow the steps described in this blog, LiveCycle Blog: Gesperrte PDF-Eigenschaften in XFA-Formularen ändern//Edit locked PDF properties in XFA forms seems very hacky but does work (the English version comes after the German).

  • Inserting and retrieving data from a al32UTF8 database USING SQL Developer

    hi guys,
    Before i post my questions , i think its better for me to provide you guys with my understandings first so that it easier to understand where/if i have gone wrong..
    I am using Window XP and Oracle 10g
    Non-unicode client - a client program that need to use the OS code page for mapping of the retrieved unicode data from the database as well as the support of displaying/inserting the characters from that code page to the database.
    E.G sqlplusw.exe
    Therefore, when using a non-unicode client
    1) we have to set the OS code page (Control panel - regional and language setting - advance - language for non unicode program ) to the code page that contain the characters we are going to display/insert.
    2) we will also have to set the NLS_LANG characterset to the character set of the code page we are going to insert so that when we do a insert (for e.g in thai ) , oracle will know, and auto conversion to UNICODE can take place. This is also true when we retrieve unicode data from the database so that conversion to the correct character set can take place.
    INSERTING
    THAI ---> conversion ----> UNICODE
    RETRIEVING
    THAI <---- conversion <---- UNICODE
    I hope my basic understanding is correct up till this point.
    Unicode client - a client program that supports the displaying/inserting of unicode characters without the need of setting the OS code page (Control panel - regional and language setting - advance - language for non unicode program )
    E.G isqlplus http or SQL developer
    However,
    1) There is still a need to set the NLS_LANG so that correct conversion can take place between the client and the database.
    For e.g, when retrieving if we set the NLS_LANG character set to ZHS16GBK (chinese) and the data store in unicode in database is E.G (THAI) , then the conversion would be wrong .
    Since it is a unicode supported client, then the NLS_LANG character set should be set to UNICODE as well.
    Here come my questions
    *Important - please help if you are busy and have no other time to answer the rest of the questions
    *Q1) If i were to use a unicode client, what should i set my NLS_LANG character set to ?
    AMERICAN_AMERICA.UTF8 ?
    *Q2) Where do i set the NLS_LANG character set information in SQL Developer, i know there is a metalink for setting NLS_LANG using isqlplus but i cant seems to google any result for SQL developer.
    Q3) Is my basic understanding right until this point ? If not, please explain in a more generalised term as i am really not familiar with character sets, code page, unicode , glyphs and fonts..
    Q4) If a unicode client does not need to refer to the OS code page (set in regional and language) , is there a UNICODE code page for the client to refer to , or is there any Window API available ?
    Q5)
    There is still a need to set the NLS_LANG so that correct conversion can take place between the client and the >>database.
    For e.g, when retrieving if we set the NLS_LANG character set to ZHS16GBK (chinese) and the data store in >>unicode in database is E.G (THAI) , then the conversion would be wrong .am i right on this point for UNICODE supported client ?
    Thanks for spending time to read my questions and i hope to hear advices from you guys soon.
    Million thanks again for sharing.
    Best Regards,
    Noob but willing to learn

    The requirement to always set NLS_LANG is not true for JDBC, which ignores NLS_LANG altogether. Java programs fetch text data into String variables, which use Unicode UTF-16 by design. JDBC sets character set conversion so that data is converted between UTF-16 and the database or national character set.
    The requirement to set NLS_LANG is not generally true for OCI, either. The first call in an OCI problem can be OCIEnvNlsCreate(). This call has two parameters that allow the caller to define the character set to use for VARCHAR2/CHAR/LONG/CLOB/statement text and the character set to use for NVARCHAR2/NCHAR/NCLOB. Only if these character sets are specified as 0, NLS_LANG character set is used. Also, OCI programs can specify different character sets for each bind or define variable (i.e. input/output buffer). Note: OCI programs always use NLS_LANG to initialize the language and territory settings for the client program and the database session. Only the character set can be specified is OCIEnvNlsCreate().
    OCIEnvNlsCreate() can specify the client character set as UTF-16 (in platform endianess). This is not possible with NLS_LANG.
    Various interfaces building on OCI, such as Oracle ODBC and ODP .NET, explicitly initialize OCI with Unicode character set, and thus ignore the NLS_LANG character set as well.
    Thnx,
    Sergiusz

  • Date parameter does not work in SharePoint 2010 report using SQL 2008 Server Reporting Service

    Here is the settings:
    SharePoint 2010 with SQL server 2008 reporting services configured
    When create a report for a SP list using SQL server report builder (3.0) the date parameter does not work.
    The data parameter is set as "date and time" type and field name equals the col name in the SP list
    When run the report, the whatever dates I select, the result is always the same, so the parameters do not take any effect.
    Is any step missing?
    Thanks for any advice !

    Hi ,
    How did you configure you "date and time" type parameter and field name equals the col name in the SP list?
    Have you tested if other type parameter worked?
    Have you tried typing the date format as 20140722 in your date parameter filed before run the report?

    I have a multitude of SSIS packages I want to run using SQL Server Agent.  What would the best practice be for running these jobs using SQL Server Agent?  One job per package or running all pakages from one job?  If you have an answer can
    you explain the technical reasoning behind your answer?  Thanks in advance.
    Stan Benner

    Hi, maybe a bit more analysis will give a better answer
    Do all the packages have to run in sequence? (if yes, single job better)
    Can the list of packages to be executed be grouped by dependency (ex package 1,2 and 5 must run in sequence and can be executed by one job, while package 3,4 are not dependent on package 1,2 and 5 can be run by a separate job).
    Can any jobs be run in parallel?
    How often will the package execution sequence change?
    How will you deploy your packages and job? (the more jobs to create the more install script needed and upgrade scenarios become messy).
    My personal preference:
    I create ONE ssis package which is executed by ONE sql agent job. lets call this 'PackageExecutionWrapper.dtsx'
    PackageExectionWrapper then contains multiple 'Execute Package' tasks for the packages you want to execute.
    In the package you can apply any package execution rules - which packages have to run after the other, which packages can run concurrently, which packages should only run if previous succeeded.
    If you need to change the sequence, simple, just update the PackageExecutionWrapper package.

Maybe you are looking for
