  • [QUESTION] File CONOTRL.SQL is not being created!!

    Dear experts,
    I am doing a Java refresh from our production to our development system.
    I have first restored the oracle 11 database. As it is NetWeaver 7.3 EHP1, it
    should be possible to do a refresh or system copy using the backup/restore
    method, which according to SAP is supported for v. 7.3.
    Afterwards, I started SWPM for NetWeaver 7.3 in order to do a target system
    installation, in order to manage the mess with the java IDs.
    Though this installation is asking for a file, named CONTROLSQL or CONTROL.SQL
    (both names are mentioned in different parts of the same screen!! How
    confusing, dear SAP !!!)
    Then at the bottom of this infamous window, there is an explanation, that the file
    is being created during the source system export preparation.
    Grrr, fine!! I went to the source system, inflated quickly another SWPM there, did
    the export preparation and... GUESS WHAT !! No CONTROLSQL or CONTROL.SQL
    file!! Nor in the install directory (which I have separate - not /tmp), neither in the
    export location. And I even searched in /tmp and nothing like this !!
    Now I am exporting the entire source system while it is running !! (can't shutdown
    the production!). Where is this file pleasseeeeee...???
    I have done the same procedure on another project with MSSQL Server and it
    went flawlessly without any control sql-files!!
    Thanks a lot for your help!!

    Hi Symon,
    Note: As a part of backup/ restore process we create a new control.sql file using the command
    SQL> alter database backup controlfile to trace;
    Rename this trace file to control.sql and place it in target system.
    Please check the installation log folder for file CONTROL.SQL SAP installer checks for this file in installation log folder.
    IF the database is up and running in target system & If file does not exist, you may create a new file with name CONTROL.SQL and add EXIT; line into it and save it.
    Post this installation should proceed.
    Hope this helps.
    Regards,
    Deepak Kori

  • Rename files or folders in Windows 8 not working

    Rename a file or folder on a Windows CE device is not working from Windows 8 when connected through Windows Mobile Device Center.
    From Windows 7 it worked just fine!
    This has been a problem for a very long time now, and im not alone according to all forums.
    But no fix as far as i can find!
    Is there anyone that have found a fix on this?

    http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/forum/windows8_1-files/windows-8-unable-to-rename-files-on-pocket-pc/abae21b7-7ee1-41c7-853e-1ac7ea5b0413
    It seems a issue in window 8.x system. Maybe you can ask for a MS support ticket. 

  • How to link Excel 2010 .XLSX file to SQL server 2008R2 - a method that actually works?

    I have been trying unsuccessfully to link my excel file to SQL server like I used to with SQL 2005.
    In SQL 2008R2 I have installed the 64-bit data access components from Office 2010 to get the  provider 'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0' avilable.
    When I try this command:
    SELECT
    FROM
    OPENDATASOURCE(
    'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0',
    'Data Source="E:\ADUpdates\Employee List1.xlsx"; Extended properties=Excel 12.0')...[Sheet1$]
    I get this error:
    Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
    The OLE DB provider "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" for linked server "(null)" reported an error. Access denied.
    Msg 7301, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
    Cannot obtain the required interface ("IID_IDBCreateCommand") from OLE DB provider "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" for linked server "(null)".
    The Access Denied error seems to be form the worksheet and not the file itself. Evidence is that if I enter a bogus sheet name it tells me the sheet doesn't exist and after this error the file is locked open and can't be saved again from Excel until the
    query windows is closed. The sheet is not protected in Excel so I don't know how access to it can be denied.
    Does anyone actually have this working in SQL 2008R2?

    Some minor progress on this issue by running SQL Server service under a domain account with Administrator priv on the SQL server.
    This query now works in a query window:
    SELECT * FROM OPENDATASOURCE( 'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0', 'Data Source="E:\ADUpdates\Employee List.xlsx"; Extended properties=Excel 12.0')...[EmployeeData];
    However, creating a Linked server object for the same spreadsheet still does not work:
    EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedserver @server = N'TEST', @srvproduct=N'Excel 12.0', @provider=N'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0', @datasrc=N'E:\ADUpdates\Employee List.xlsx'
    The test connection to the linked server failed.
    Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" for linked server "TEST".
    OLE DB provider "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" for linked server "TEST" returned message "Unrecognized database format 'E:\ADUpdates\Employee List.xlsx'.". (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 7303)

  • Sharepoint 2013 ItemAdded event receiver for renaming files is not working

    In SP 2013 I coded an event receiver that intercepts the ItemAdded event and it just renames the file.
    It is a synchronous event (I added <Synchronization>Synchronous</Synchronization> in the Elements.xml).
    This is the code:
            public override void ItemAdded(SPItemEventProperties properties)
                SPSecurity.RunWithElevatedPrivileges(delegate()
                    try
                        OutputDebugStringA("Inside ItemAdded");
                        string szHttpUrl = properties.WebUrl + "/" + properties.AfterUrl;
                        SPWeb openedWeb = properties.Web.Site.OpenWeb(properties.Web.ID);
                        SPFile spf = openedWeb.GetFile(szHttpUrl);
                        EventFiringEnabled = false;
                        string szUrl = properties.AfterUrl;
                        szUrl = szUrl + ".renamed";
                        string szNewFileName;
                        if (szUrl.LastIndexOf('\\') != -1) szNewFileName = szUrl.Substring(szUrl.LastIndexOf('\\') + 1);
                        else if (szUrl.LastIndexOf('/') != -1) szNewFileName = szUrl.Substring(szUrl.LastIndexOf('/') + 1);
                        else szNewFileName = szUrl;
                        if (properties.ListItem != null)
                            properties.ListItem["Title"] = szNewFileName;
                            properties.ListItem.Update();
                        spf.MoveTo(szUrl);
                        EventFiringEnabled = true;
                        base.ItemAdded(properties);
                        OutputDebugStringA("Renaming to " + szUrl);
                    catch (System.Exception exception)
                        OutputDebugStringA("ItemAdded ERROR: " + exception.ToString());
    The problem is that when I upload a .txt file using Internet Explorer, just after the renaming is done, IE says that something went wrong and when I inspect the log files I see:

    So it is clear that the fact that I renamed the file is causing an issue in the SharePoint upload logic.
    As a solution what I did was to not declare it as Synchronous, but if I do it then there is another error when Sharepoint shows the Edit Properties dialog... in this case the upload is OK but when it is time to show that Edit Property dialog IE fails and
    says that the file has been already modified, or that "something went wrong".
    If I use a synchronous event I get one problem. If I use the asynchronous event I get another problem... It's very frustating and I am pretty sure that a so important API like Event Receivers should have support renaming files so I hope someone can tell
    me what I am doing wrong.
    Thanks in advance

    May be you want to consider using the following code and see if it works for you.

    Hi Nusrat Akhter,
    According to your description, when installing the first install failed, and it looks like the instance did not uninstall completely. To solve the issue I recommend you changed the instance name in re-installing SQL Server, and check if it can work fine.
    There is a similar issue that the SQL engine will not start, and there is no method of uninstalling either it, or any of the components etc. You can review the following post.

    I don't know why I got the error of 'value' is not a recognized built-in function name. Please kindly help and tell me what is wrong in my code and how to correct the error.
    Thanks, Scott Chang
    P. S.
    (1) I mimicked the xml file and SQL Qeury code of Import XML File to SQL Table in
    http://pratchev.blogspot.com/2008/11/import-xml-file-to-sql-table.html. The xml file and the code of this sample worked in my SSMS 2012 program.
    (2) I am learning the "CAST" and "CROSS APPLY" in the Create Instances of XML Data of Microsoft MSDN - it is very abstract to me.

    Hi Stan210, Thanks for your nice response.
    I corrected my xml file as you pointed out.
    I made some changes in some code statements of my SQLQueryW3BookTitle.sql as you instructed:
    --XQuery w3schools example using books1.xml in C:\Temp folder
    ---SQL Query W3books Title
    ---10 March 2015
    USE XML_XQUERY
    GO
    CREATE TABLE W3Books(
    BookID INt Primary Key,
    Title VARCHAR(30));
    INSERT INTO W3Books (BookID, Title)
    SELECT x.book.value('/BookID[1]', 'INT'),
    x.book.value('/title[1]', 'VARCHAR(30)')
    FROM (
    SELECT CAST(x AS XML)
    FROM OPENROWSET(
    BULK 'C:\Temp\books1.xml',SINGLE_BLOB) AS T(x)
    ) AS T(x)
    CROSS APPLY x.nodes('bookstore/book') AS x(book);
    SELECT BookID, Title
    FROM W3Books;
    I executed my revised sql and I got the following Message and Results:
    Msg 515, Level 16, State 2, Line 6
    Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'BookID', table 'XML_XQUERY.dbo.W3Books'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.
    The statement has been terminated.
    (0 row(s) affected)
    Results:
    BookID    Title
    I don't know why I just got the names of columns in Results and the "Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'BookID', table 'XML_XQUERY.dbo.W3Books'; column does not allow nulls, insert fails." in Messages.  Please kindly help, advise me
    how to correct the errors and respond again.
    Many Thanks again,

    I have an application that needs to import an excel file with
    10 columns of data into an SQL Server database table with 13
    columns of data. Two of the 3 extra database columns are manditory,
    and I need to manipulate the values going in.
    I've determined the best method to do this using coldfusion
    is to import the excel file into a cvs file then use SQL to import
    the cvs file into SQL server. Does anyone know how to import an
    excel document into a cvs file using ColdFusion?
    Thanks!

    A couple of things come to mind. You might consider using DTS
    to import your data directly into SQL Server from Excel, rather
    than putting ColdFusion in the middle. Or, you might consider
    creating a ColdFusion ODBC datasource out of your Excel file, use a
    cfquery to select the applicable data, then insert the data into
    SQL Server in a loop. Not very efficient, but it can be done.

  • How to attach .mdf file to sql server 2008 EXPRESS

    I have .mdf files created using SQL SERVER management studio 2012 in another computer and wish to attach the same to SQL SERVER 2008 EXPRESS in another computer. How should I do so? I tried this method :How
    to: Attach a Database File to SQL Server Express but then it shows an error that the database cannot be created due to compatibility issues.
    Msg 948: The database xyz cannot be opened because it is version 706. This server supports version 655 and earlier. A downward path is not supported..
    Any help??

    You are trying to attach SQL Server 2012  database files to SQL Server 2008 R2 which is not allowed, you either need to upgrade your SQL Server 2008 to 2012 or alternatively you can generate all scripts from SQL Server 2012 and execute it in SQL Server
    2008 R2.
    You can refer below link to how to generate script.

  • Get renamed file new name

    Hello all. What I'm wanting to do is rename a file and then do some things with the new file name.
    1. I want to view the new file name with the full path
    2. I want to output the new file name with the full path to a text file or csv file
    Here is what I have for outputting the renamed file into a text file, but it isn't working:
    cls
    $resultsfile = "C:\results3.txt"
    clear-content $resultsfile
    foreach($item in gc C:\RENAME.txt){
    Rename-Item $item "1.txt" | out-file $resultsfile -append
    notepad $resultsfile
    Any thoughts on how to work with the newly renamed file name?

    Yes, sorry I forgot to mention that I'm trying to delete a bunch of files whose names are too long. So what I 'm trying to do is to rename the files first with "1.txt" and then I'm going to delete them. I just had a "forehead-slap" moment where I realized
    I could just pipe the "rename-item" into "remove-item" and that should accomplish my goals.
    But, as for my original question, if I rename a file, how can i view/use the renamed file name? Like if I renamed a file, how could I output the newly renamed file name to a text file? I tried this in my original code above, but it didn't work. Let's just
    assume that I have a single file that I want to rename to "1.txt"

  • Rename file name & format using ftp sender

    Hi all,
    This is regarding the renaming of file at sender file(FTP) communication channel and placeing the same file in the same folder.
    At FTP server at sender side (i.e.clients place) is in .txt format.But now .txt file has to rename and change into .sav foramt with below required name convention of file.
    client format is  :  SAP_Order.txt (Pervious file name).
    We need to change the file in to "SAP_Order_yyyymmddThhmmss.sav" format..
    How can i achieve this requirement?
    Can please suggests me solutions ASAP.
    Best Regards,
    satya,

    Hi,
       if your requirement is to pick the  existing file in the FTP folder...and send as idoc to the target and place the renamed file to FTP folder...
    then its simple...
    use two receivers instead of one , one for point to target and other for sender itself... (second receiver  is for  changing  the file name format....)
    Hope the above understanding is correct...if not provide more details of your requirement...

  • Deleting & renaming files - is there a shortcut to finder?

    I am a recent convert from PC to Mac. So far so good. However, one thing starts to drive me up the wall which is deleting/renaming files in programs such as photoshop, word, excel etc.etc.
    As far as I can tell, this is only possible in the finder menu. Is this Correct? I am using a lot of folders and subfolders - sometimes 3-4 levels deep. Every time I need to change/delete a file or filename - lets say while in photoshop, I have to go to finder and click my way through several levels of folders to the actual file I need to change. This is somewhat annoying and timeconsuming.
    Question 1: is there a way to do these operations in - lets say photoshop directly?
    Question 2: If not, is there a shortcut key that would point me automatically to the file in finder where I can make the changes?
    Your input would be very helpful and save me some aggravation.

    Hi Greg,
    Thanks for your input. You are correct as far as "save" and "save as" is concerned. Windows and Mac work the same way.
    However, as far as I can tell, in Mac you can only "delete" or "rename" a file in "finder" which forces you to open up finder and locate the file in order to delete or change it.
    In windows you can do these 2 functions directly in the program (such as photoshop, excel or words). You do not have to go to "explorer or root directory" to make these changes which I believe would be the equivalent of "finder".
    In any case, Terence solved the problem. By command clicking the name (title) of the file in any program, it opens up the directory in "finder". This way makes it easy to select the file and do the changes.

    can anyone pls help how to set the db offline. currently  i  stopped the sql server services from services.msc and started the  sql server agent.
    should i stop both services for moving from one drive to another?
    note: I tried teh below solution but this didint work:
    ALTER DATABASE <DBName> SET OFFLINE WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE
    Update:
    now am getting the message :
    Msg 15010, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_detach_db, Line 40
    The database 'CMP_143' does not exist. Supply a valid database name. To see available databases, use sys.databases.

    (3 row(s) affected)

    Unable to open the physical file "D:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\CMP_143.mdf". Operating system error 2: "2(The system cannot find the file specified.)".

    First you should have checked the database mdf/ldf name and location by using the command
    Use CMP_143
    Go
    Sp_helpfile
    Looks like your database CMP_143 was successfully detached but mdf/ldf location or name was different that is why it did not get copied to target location.
    Database is already detached that’s why db offline failed
    Msg 15010, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_detach_db, Line 40
    The database 'CMP_143' does not exist. Supply a valid database name. To see available databases, use sys.databases.
    EXEC @RC = sp_attach_db @DBName, @DESTData, @DESTLog
    Attached step is failing as there is no mdf file
    Msg 5120, Level 16, State 101, Line 1
    Unable to open the physical file "D:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\CMP_143.mdf". Operating system error 2: "2(The system cannot find the file specified.)"
    Solution:
    Search for the physical files(mdf/ldf) in the OS and copy to target location and the re-run sp_attach_db with right location and name of mdf/ldf.
