Ms Sql Management Studio 2014 Express + Azure

Hi everyone
I have SSMS 2014 Express and I use Azure SQL DB with SQL Database Update V12 (preview).
Now I have the restricted access to my DB from ssms, but there (http://blogs.msdn.com/b/sqlreleaseservices/archive/2014/12/18/sql-server-2014-management-studio-updated-support-for-the-latest-azure-sql-database-update-v12-preview.aspx) talks about the enhanced
functionality. I can not find this update for ssms. Please help me, where I can get this update?

I have installed MS SQL Management Studio 2014. After that I have installed CU5 from link in your previous post.
There was no change. After your last post I have installed
CU6, but again there was no change.
Now I have this:
MS SQL Management Studio about window:
In Azure:
I'm sorry for russian language in screenshot, I don't know how to change it to english.
No error occurs.
GUI can not do anything with the database
in Azure. I can only see the list
of tables, and I can do a sql queries.
But in the local database in the GUI
all the features are present
Hi AndrewG42,
I notice that you are using the latest version of SQL Azure database (13.0.15). I suspect there’s no update in SSMS 2014 for this version of SQL Azure database.
In other words, these features (select top 1000 rows, table designer, etc) are only going to be present with SSMS connecting to Azure v12 which version number is 12.0.2000.8.
Personally, regarding to above issue, I recommend you submit a feedback at
http://feedback.azure.com/forums/34192--general-feedback. Your feedback is valuable for us to improve our products and increase the level of service provided.

Sql management studio login error

***When i tried to login to the MS SQL management studio with <sid>adm user am geeting the error
The error text as below.
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio
Value cannot be null.
Parameter name: viewInfo (Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.SqlStudio.Explorer)

Thanks

Hi,
Could you please check if there any directory named like 1,2,3 etc in
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Temp\
This error sometime occurs due to missing temporary file which is created every time at startup of ssms.exe file.
If you can find any log file which says missing file name then you just create the missing directory in given location. The file will be created automatically next time.
Thanks.

AUto-renaming mdf & ldf filenames when restoring a database with SQL Management Studio

Hi!
I am using SQL Management Studio 2014 and I am experiencing some problems when restoring a database backup.
I have a SQL Server 2008R2 & SQL Server 2012 instances.
On the 2012 instance, when I restore a database and rename it into a new name, the mdf and ldf files get automatically renamed into the new database name : Great, this is the behavior that I expect.
On the 2008R2 instance, the mdf and ldf files don't automatically get renamed to match the new database name and I have to perform the renaming manually - pretty annoying.
Has anybody experienced this problem ? If yes, do you know of a fix ?
Thank you
Frederic

Hi,
You are using an external tool (SSMS GUI interface) which give you some behaviors like default names. this is very simple, just use a simple query to restore the database and dont use the GUI if you dont like its behavior
(this behavior might change from time to time). You can use the profiler to make sure what is
the real query that the SSMS sent to the server.

SQL Management Studio Installation Problems

My hard drive crash and I'm forced to use Windows 8 on my laptop for a while. Visual Studio 2012 installed okay but I cannot get the SQL Management Studio to install.
I have SQL Management Studio 2005 CD's and I've also tried to download and install the 2008 version.
But no matter what I do I cannot get one to them to install and run. It always tells me I have compatibility problems.
I'm desperate. I need this to work.
Can someone please tell me how to get SQL Management Studio 2005 32 or 64 bit to run on on this Window 8 box?
Or any version of SQL Management Studio to install and run.
BTW, I've tried running in compatibility mode.

FIrst of all, please notice that SSMS 2005 will probably not fit windows 8, but I am not sure about this (the SQL
Server 2005 do not fit). Please check this link before you wasted your time :-)
https://support.microsoft.com/kb/2681562/en-us?wa=wsignin1.0
"SQL Server 2005 (the release version and service packs) and earlier versions of SQL Server are not supported on Windows Server 2012 R2, Windows Server 2012, Windows 8.1, or Windows 8. You will receive a warning in the Action Center if Windows 8.1
or Windows 8 detects an instance of SQL Server 2005."
You can use any version from 2008 and above.
* If you are using 2008 express, then you must manually install Service Pack 3, after you install SQL Server 2008 Express Edition. In any case we are not at that point since your issue is with the installation itself :-)
**** For our case *****
1. You did not post your errors log till this time :-(
You only gave us stories, and no facts
2. If you are using the free edition EXPRESS, then you probably be better with the new version SQL EXPRESS 2014.
* You are talking about the SSMS which is not the SQL Server, but just a client application. Do you have a server to connect to?
if not, then you probably wanted to install the SQL Server with the SSMS tool, no?
You can get the new version (no so new) 2014 here:
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=42299
There are several files to download there:
* SQLEXPRADV: include the SQL Server and all the extra tools (including the server, Express Tools, Reporting Services, and Full Text Search, and more), is my prefered option for all developers and people that learn and use the SQL Server locally.
* SqlLocalDB: This is a different version that is much better for developers in most cases which they need to store the database in the application, it came to replace the EXPRESS "user instance".
* SQLManagementStudio: this is only the SSMS without the server!
* SQLEXPRWT: this is the basic version which include the basic tools
* SQLEXPR: this is only the server (this is what people install on production in lot of cases, when they do not want any extra tools)
*** If you have option to use windows 8.1 instead of 8, then you will feel that it is easier. I have to say that I too don't like the windows 8/8.1/2012/2012r2 but the 8.1/2012r2 brought back some of the old features and are better.

SQL Management Studio crashes with DataTools installed

This error seems to be very random but once it occurs I can no longer connect to a server in SQL Server Management Studio. It was happening in Management Studio 2012 as well:
I have Visual Studio Premium 2013 with Update 3 installed.
SQL Server Data Tools for Visual Studio 2013
SQL Server Management Studio 2014
I can't verify this but it seems to happen after Windows Updates have been applied. I have to restart my computer in order to connect to a server again.

Hi ScottWeeden,
The SQL Server Data Tools for SQL Server 2014 is available, and this update is available for Visual Studio 2012 and 2013. According to your description, when you installed SQL Server Data Tools for Visual Studio 2013, the SQL Server Management Studio 2014
crashes. In theory , this version of SQL Server Data Tools is fully compatible with SQL Server 2014. Personally, I recommend you install the latest cumulative update or service pack for SQL Server 2014/2012, and install the latest cumulative
update for VS 2013. For more information, see:

Problem sequencing SQL Management Tools 2014

Hi
I'm using APPV5.0 SP2 to sequence SQL Management Tools 2014. Unfortunately when running the APPV package on the client, I get the following error:
Invalid license data. Reinstall is required
This seems a known issue (even with SQL MGMNT tools 2012). After some searching, I found out that it's related to a Visual Studio 2010 bug. A hotfix has been released (KB2526163) but won't install so this doesn't solve the issue.
Has anyone managed to sequence either SQL Management Tools 2012 or 2014?
thanks for your help
Gert

We used the SQL Server 2014 Management Studio sources, not the full SQL Server binaries. Like Rory did in his recipe.

SQL 2012 SP2 - Cannot open Maintenance Plans in SQL Management Studio

Hello...
We have a number of SQL 2012 SP2 instances running on Server 2012 R2 where we cannot open any Maintenance Plans via the SQL Management Studio.
At times we've received an error message screen when attempting to open the Plan, but most of the time just nothing happens when you try to open the Plan.
I cannot get any of them to display the error now to even provide more information there.
This happens even after a reboot and/or restarting SQL server.
Everything else seems to be working and we can examine the individual pieces under the SQL Server Agent -> Jobs, but we cannot open the Maintenance Plan itself.
We can even create new Plans via the "Maintenance Plan Wizard" but not from "New Maintenance Plan" and once a Plan exists, we can't open it.
As a test, I tried connecting from a SQL 2008 R2 server and am able to open the plans, so it appears to be a SQL 2012 Management Studio issue rather than the Plans.
Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Thank you...

Hello,
Once you modify and save a maintenance plan with a greater version of SSMS (let’s say SSMS 2014) you cannot modify it again
with an earlier version of SSMS again ( SSMS 2012 or earlier). That may be a possibility.
If you did not modify the maintenance plan with SSMS 2014, then try to repair SQL Server 2012, apply the latest service
pack (SP2), or try to uninstall only SSMS and reinstall it again.
If you have Visual Studio installed, please apply the latest update.
Hope this helps.

How do I load an SSIS package created in Visual Studio 2012 Shell (Integrated) onto SQL Server 2012 using SQL Management Studio 2012

I am fairly new to this whole process of working with the Microsoft development environment. Here is what I have to work with:
an NT server running Microsoft SQL 2012 - Microsoft SQL Server Standard (64-bit) 11.0.2100.60
and on my laptop (all freebie downloads):
SQL Server Management Studio 2012 ver 11.0.2100.60
Visual Studio 2012 Express for Desktop Development and
Visual Studio 2012 Shell (Integrated)
I was able to create an SSIS package in
2012 Shell (Integrated). It takes a flat file and imports it into an SQL database table. It runs successfully from within the
2012 Shell (Integrated) envrionment.
But I am having trouble figuring out how to set this up on the 2012 SQL Server. I see that one of my colleagues created an Integration Services Catalog,
and using SQL Management Studio I was able to create a folder under that called DigLic. But when I go to the Projects subfolder of DigLic and attempt to import my SSIS package, I get an error message:
"To launch the Integration Services Deployment wizard, one of the components: Integration Services, Management Tools - Basic or Business Intelligence Development Studio has to be installed by the SQL Server
2012 Standard, Enterprise, Developer, or Evaluation Edition. To install a component, run SQL Server Setup and Select the component name"
I realize that Express Versions of Visual Studio lack the full feature set of a professional version. But am I wrong in assuming that owning a server version of SQL Server 2012 gives us license to a professional
version of SQL Management Studio 2012? If so, how would I go about getting this software component installed? And I am not clear if this is something that needs to be installed on our SQL Server or if I simply need a professional version of SSMS
loaded on my laptop.
I work for a company that is fairly fractured in its repsonsibilities, so I would need to know exactly what to ask for if I need to track down any licenses that I might need and if I need to have any specific software installed on our SQL server or on my
laptop.
All helpt would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

Arthur,
Thank you for your reply. But at this point, one of my points of confusion is what software I have available to me. I wish I had a useful central help desk to call up and just say, "Hey, load me up with all of the professional version(s) of Visual
Studio. But I do not know what we have license to. And I kind of need to know what the options are, so that I can ask a specific question of our vast buracracy.
For now, I have downloaded only free versions of Visual Studio client software. Since my company does have servers running Microsoft SQL Server, I am going to assume that we have proper licensing for those servers. But does that server license
allow me to get any professional versions of the PC client software for the various Visual Studio(s) 2012?
And if I get a professional version of Visual Studio 2012, does that do away with the three different flavors that I have right now? I have 2012 versions of SQL Server Management Studio, Visual Studio Express, and Visual Studio Shell (Integrated).
Your feedback is much appreciated.
Thanks!

SSIS query returns no results - same query in SQL management studio works

Hello,
I'm running a very simple join to get a result set:
SELECT dbo.sap_contracts.svc_id, dbo.sap_contracts.svc_code, dbo.sap_contracts.quantity, dbo.sap_contracts.start_date, dbo.sap_contracts.end_date
FROM dbo.sap_contracts
INNER JOIN dbo.contracts
ON dbo.contracts.contract_id=dbo.sap_contracts.contract_id
where customer_name='XXXXXXXXX'
When I run this in SQL management studio it works fine and returns the list of existing "SAP contracts" in the DB (to compare to the customer's contracts actually in SAP).
In SSIS (SQL 2012) I'm using an Execute SQL task to run this query and putting the full results set into a variable of type "object". I've done very similar things before and it worked fine. With this query in SSIS I get no results at all. Changing
the variable type to "string" throws an error showing that the type being written to the variable is "DBNull" - so it seems that the query in SSIS returns no records, when in SQL management studio I get the 15 records that should be returned.
Does anyone have any ideas of what could be wrong?
Cheers
Mark

There are several connections to the DB in tasks before this one, and the task after this is a whole load of C# in a script task doing SOAP communications to the SAP ERP system to compare the result set from this SQL with the contracts in SAP ERP for the
specific customer.
Input variables are all correct (I've checked them about 15 times now with breakpoints on just about every task in the whole package) and I'm at the point of having to test everything in an attempt to see exactly what query is being sent to the SQL server
and anything else I can do to see why nothing comes back. There is a almost complete lack of debugging tools in SSIS which doesn't make life any easier (something I've heard quite a few times in various forums).
I'm tearing my hair out on this for half a day now and it's not funny any more, so apologies if I come across as a little frustrated.
Cheers
Mark

How to connect to SP2010 content database from SQL Management Studio?

I would like to migrate the SP 2010 Foundation content to 2013 Foundation.
Both default installations with no external SQL server.
When trying to connect from SQL Management Studio Express 2008 I get the error below.
I'm using windows authentication and my domain admin account.
tried all the steps from
this guide.
What am I doing wrong here?
Cannot connect to (local).
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider:
TCP Provider, error: 0 - No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 10061)

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that you could not connect from SQL Management Studio Express 2008.
Please try to connect to <MACHINENAME>\SQLEXPRESS or .\SQLEXPRESS instead of (local).

Issue of Installing SQL Management Studio

Hi,
I still have an issue of installing SQL Management Studio 2012 or even any version, so it gives me errors and i don't know what to so with that. Many people saw that issue and no body could fix it, i really need your help and why SQL Management Studio can't
be installed in my Windows 7 64 bit
Thanks so much
Raed

Hi Raed,
According to your description, you fail to install SQL Server 2012 Management Studio on windows 7. It is supported to install SQL Server 2012 Management Studio on windows 7. Please help to post SQL Server setup error log for analysis. By default, SQL Server
setup summary and detail logs locate in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\110\Setup Bootstrap\Log.
Make sure that your account has admin rights and you right-click the setup.exe and choose “Run as administrator” to install SQL Server. To troubleshoot the issue, please pay attention to the points below.
1.Make sure that you install or enable .NET 3.5 SP1.
2.Make sure that you install Windows 7 SP1.
3.Make sure that you install Windows PowerShell 2.0.

Right. Well this isn't a SQL Server administration support site. So you need to find one for your SQL Server administration problem.
Also I would recommend you use one of the free type 4 (pure Java) JDBC drivers for connecting to SQL Server rather than the ODBC bridge driver.
Good luck in your searching!
