Perhaps it is held by the process. Find process, stop it and do what you want. If you still cannot what you need, make a script and run it in Task Schedule with elevated rights as SYSTEM. You may reregister newly named dll.
Perhaps more suitable forum for problem like this one is MSDN forum. If problem persists, addres this forum.

Temporarily disable Digital Signature Checks to Install MS SQL Server 2008 with no Internet Access

I am attempting to install a licensed copy of MS SQL Server 2008 in a Private Enclave that does NOT have Internet access on a Win2008 R2 SP1 server (that is VM - thus I can't reboot and press F8 to select "Disable Driver Signature Enforcement"
). The installation fails with an error of the vc_red.cab file being found either corrupt or a bad digital signature. The file is good, but the signature has an expiration of 2011. I understand that a DOTNET SDK v1.1 program called setreg.exe
will enable disabling the digital signature check, but I am not permitted to use that program.
I might be permitted to use the "Signtool.exe" utility, but it is not clear what command sequences are necessary to disable and then re-enable the Digital Signature checks.
I saw a thread that recommended using the command:
bcdedit.exe /set nointegritychecks ON
However, the comments indicated that this might not have worked.
Are there Registry settings I can use with regedit to make the necessary changes to be able to install the application? I anticipate running into this problem with other software when I do not have Internet connectivity. I already tried
downloading the Microsoft CRL files; updated the lists on the Server; and rebooted. This did not solve my problem.

Hi,
As far as I know, it is not recommended to disable digital signature check.
Since we are not familair with installing MS SQL server, please also refer to SQL forums below to see if experts there have more insights regarding the matter.

RH server 8 - upscaling from Access to SQL Server 2008?

Hi gang-
We are currently running RoboHelp Server 8 on the default Access database and Tomcat. We would like to increase the number of help projects that are tracked by the RH Server, and have concerns that Access will handle the increased load, so we are considering upsizing to SQL Server 2008.
Our IT people think this should be fairly straightforward, but want to know if Adobe provides any tool or has any recommendations when upsizing from Access to SQL Server.They are concerned about retaining things like primary and secondary keys, as well as any indexes that are currently in Access.
If anyone has experience with such a migration, please share!
Thanks,
-=Ed.

We are also currently on an Access DB and considering (have been for some time but that's a different story) upgrading to SQL Server. There is no migration tool from Access to SQL Server provided so you'd have to allow some additional effort if you want to retain the data. I am not an expert on DBs but I'm sure there are ways to migrate the data. I have found a few links when searching on Google. For example:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/237980
Adobe does provide a cheat sheet at the link below which may be useful to you.

Is 'SQLCMD.EXE' the SQL Server 2008 executable to be added to a Firewall 'Inbound Rule' to allow remote access?

I would like to add a new Firewall 'Inbound Rule' to allow remote access by
SQL Server 2008.
SQL Server Management Studio shows two TCP/IP instances, both of which are Enabled.
One uses port 1433 and the other uses ‘TCP Dynamic Ports’.
In SQL Server, the server has ‘Allow remote connections to this server’ checked.
My Firewall allows port 1433 for the one TCP/IP instance.
Since the other instance is dynamic, I would like to add a new
Firewall 'Inbound Rule' to allow the SQL Server executable to run.
I’ve read that the SQL Server executable is commonly named SQLSERVR.EXE, but there is no such file on my laptop.
I’m assuming the executable that needs to be added to the Firewall 'Inbound Rule'
is SQLCMD.EXE (in the path C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn).
Can anyone please confirm this? (I'm running Windows 7). Thanks.

Hi Bontrager,
Firstly, please run
Discovery Report to the detect the existing SQL Server 2008 instance. If SQL Server 2008 is installed properly on your machine, the sqlservr.exe should exists in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10.<instance_name>\MSSQL\Binn.
Secondly, if SQL Server 2008 is configured to use dynamic port, it is difficult to configure the firewall to enable access to the correct port number because the port selected might change every time that the Database Engine is started.
Therefore, if a firewall is used, please reconfigure the SQL Server 2008 to use the static TCP port by using SQL Server 2008 Configuration Manager.
For more information, please review this
article. After that, you can add the port number in firewall inbound rule.
Thirdly, if you want to connect to SQL Server 2008 from outside the firewall by instance name, SQL Server Browser should be turned on and you'll have to allow the SQL Server Browser through the firewall, which is UDP port 1434.

How to access the datasource window in SSRS for sql server 2008 R2 for writing my query without having to go through the wizard?

I have used SSRS a lot years ago with Sql Server 2000 and Sql Server 2005. I have written external assemblies, ... But now I have to do this with Sql Server 2008 (R2 -- which I realize I am way behind the times already but ...) in sql server 2000 and
2005 there was a tab for datasource to the left of the tab for design which was to the left of the preview tab. How do I get to the datasource window in sql server 2008 (r2) ?
I see that datasource explorer. But where can I get to the datasource window to edit my queries and so forth for sql server 2008 (R2)?
Thanks
Rich P

I think I found the answer to my question --- just right-click on the the Data Sources or Datasets for editing connections and dataset queries. I'm guessing it gets even fancier with Sql Svr 2012 - 2014. Man, that's the one thing
about coding platforms -- you let it go for a few years and come back, and everything has changed (well, a lot of things). Now I need to figure out how to add an external assembly to SSRS 2008 (R2).

Permission denied when creating database in Sql Server 2008 for SQLExpress

I'm getting an permission error while restoring the database. I'm using SQL Server 2008 SQLEXPRESS
I'm able to create the user using this script " CREATE LOGIN [darth\vader] FROM WINDOWS;
GO;"
But when I try to give role to the user it's still give me permission error.. SP_ADDSRVROLEMEMBER ‘darth\vader’, ‘sysadmin’
Can someone guide me how to resolve this issue?

http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms186858.aspx
Permissions
If the database being restored does not exist, the user must have CREATE DATABASE permissions to be able to execute RESTORE. If the database exists, RESTORE permissions default to members of the sysadmin and dbcreator fixed
server roles and the owner (dbo) of the database (for the FROM DATABASE_SNAPSHOT option, the database always exists).
RESTORE permissions are given to roles in which membership information is always readily available to the server. Because fixed database role membership can be checked only when the database is accessible and undamaged, which is not always the case when RESTORE
is executed, members of the db_ownerfixed database role do not have RESTORE permissions.

Error access CF8 to Microsoft SQL Server 2008

Hello!
I have created a database in SQL Server 2008.
Further, in CF Administrator Add New Data Source - also there is an error.
Connection verification failed for data source: dbo.Articles
java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]Error establishing socket to host and port: localhost:1433. Reason: Connection refused: connect
The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]Error establishing socket to host and port: localhost:1433. Reason: Connection refused: connect
Prompt how to solve this problem?

What is the solution?
I have the same thing with SQL Server 2008 64 bit. When i switch my datasource from SQL 2008 to SQL 2000 it works great otherwise it will not work. I have checked SQL Server 2008 that all the ports show 1433. I have been stuck on this for a while. I also checked the SQL Server Network Configuration / TCP/IP and i have nothing in the dynamic field and all the ports show 1433. If someone has allready figured this out it would be good to have a solution- Especially since coldfusion is supposed to connect to the database....
Thanks for any help.

Sql server grants access to specific login to database.

i have created website for intranet and hosted it on server. for that i needed to create login "IIS APPPOOL\hi" in sql server 2008 for my application
to access my "reportdb" database. "IIS APPPOOL\hi" has sysadmin and public server roles in sql server 2008. And i have default login"sa" same
as "IIS APPPOOL\hi". these are working correctly. Now I want these two logins to access"reportdb" for all
operations in database and remaining all logins should be denied to access"reportdb". My Sql Server 2008 is having mixed mode (windows authentication and Sql authentication). plz help me

I think what Tauseef is requesting is to keep access for the 2 sysadmins & deny access to everyone else, correct?
As Uri mentioned, by being part of sysadmin role, “IIS APPPOOL\hi” & “sa” would have access to everything in the server, and nobody else should have access to the DB unless explicitly being granted access.
If you would really deny anyone else access to the database, you can potentially deny connect to public, and only sysadmins (who override permissions) would be able to connect; although I would strongly recommend against such practice.
Something else I would like to recommend against is the usage of sysadmin for what may not be a DBA role (IIS appPool). Following the least-privilege principle, I would recommend having a non-administrator user for applications that has enough capabilities
to perform the tasks needed.
The main risk is that a SQL injection (SQLi) bug in your application would lead to a complete compromise of your SQL server.
If there are app tasks that would require elevated permissions, I would recommend encapsulating the logic in a stored procedure and either use impersonation or digital signatures to accomplish a controlled elevation of privileges instead. If you have any
question on this topic I will be glad to assist.
I hope this information helps,

any advice guys?
Thanks a lot
jhules
if you want to be happy, find something you love to do and do it for free, then find someone to to you for it.

The Error clearly shows that MDF files and LDF files are not matching or LDF file is corrupted.
You can follow either of the one option below
1. Restore a recent backup rather attaching the MDF file
2. Attach single MDF file without LOG File( Warning: All the log transactions will be gone and new log file will be created)
EXEC sp_attach_single_file_db @dbname = 'AdventureWorks2008R2',
@physname = N'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10_50.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\Data\AdventureWorks2008R2_Data.mdf';

Need to connect SQL Server 2008 and CR 2008 via OLE DB SQL Server Provider

I am relatively new to Crystal but have done some minor design/layout work in the past. I just purchased CR 2008 and dowloaded a Eval Copy of SQL Server 2008 to build test reports that will then be uploaded to a hosted web app we use for use with live data.
I am having some trouble, however, getting SQL server and CR 08 to talk the way I need them to. We have to use the OLE DB for SQL Server Provider connection for the reports to work in our hosted live environment but I cannot get this to work on SQL 2008. The server never appears in the Server dropdown and if I manually type it get the following error:
failed to open connection.
Detail ADO Error Code: 0x80004005
Source: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server
Description: [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access is denied.
SQL State: 08001
Native Error: 17 [Database Vendor Code: 17 ]
I am setting up the connection through the Database Expert choosing the OLE DB (ADO) folder and then selecting 'Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server' then entering my server name, user id, password, and Database name.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled everything twice. I have installed the Microsoft SQL Server 2008 Analysis Service 10.0 OLEDB Provider pack.
My provider/host does use SQL Server 2005 but since I can't get a free Evaluation version of it I have to use 2008 for my local copy. I have searched the web over (including here) and cannot find an answer to my issue.
I cannot use SQL Server Express version because our copy of the DB is too big. I cannot use the Native 10 provider as the reports will not work once I have uploaded them to the live data.
any help anyone can provide for this would be GREATLY appreciated. Thank you and sorry if this is a dupe post. I have searched everywhere and cannot find the answer.

Hello,
Go to Microsoft's site and download their OLE DB test tool and test the connection. Did you install the MS client tools to test the connection also?
As a test try creating an ODBC System DSN just to verify you can connect and create a report also.
And don't use the SA account, MS 2008 disabled it, sort of, so you'll have to create a new account and grant permissions to any table you need to use.
SQL 2008 changed security model big time so it's not the same as 2005 once was....
Good luck
Don

SQL Server Service won't start on SQL Server 2008

Hi everyone,
I'm having trouble starting SQL Server service after stopping and starting the service. Before this happened, I created a Stored Procedure for marking all tables at once along with a maintenance plan for differential backup on all my databases based on the
recommendation from this link, http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms253070.aspx.
When I realized that the differential backup failed with some databases displaying (Restoring...) post-fix to the database name, I decided to stop SQL Server service and start it up. That is when I won't be able to start the service again.
Is there a fix for starting the SQL Server service? Any help is very much appreciated.
Additional information:
- With administrator permission granted.
- Service Pack 1 for SQL Server 2008 installed.
- Using default database instance.
- Tried C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.....\Binn>net start MSSQLSERVER /T3608 ( return msg: System error 5 has occurred. Access is denied.
- When I start SQL Server service, I keep getting this dialog msg:
"Windowns could not start the SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) on Local Computer. For more information, review the System Event Log. If this is a non-Microsoft service, contact the service vendor, and refer to service-specific error code 1814."
The event log does not explain or provide any hint on how to fix the problem.

Hi,
How big is database ? Does F drive has enough space on it. Issue does not seems with SQL Server backup it is with F drive or network connecting Server to drives.
Can you give more information about F drive is it a SAN, Local disk ?
If SQL server backup would have been issue it would have not processed uptill 70 % ( unles its bug). First error message with OS error 5 means access denied. Ater then you gave necessary rights and now backup issue is not due to SQL Server but while writing
to F drive some unusual thing is happeing which is causing backup to fail.Can you also involve SAN team as well.
** SAME DATABASE BACKUP IS COMPLETED SUCCESSFULLY ON OTHER DRIVE **
Does this mean backup of same database completes successfully on other drive if so it is a SAN issue or connection issue between SAN and server
Is SQL server 2008 updated to latest service pack ? Why do you use 80 compatibility mode. Although these questions are not realted to backup

Utility data collection job Failure on SQL server 2008

Hi,
I am facing data collection job failure issue (Utility-data Collection) on SQL server 2008 server for, below is the error message as :
<service Name>. The step did not generate any output. Process Exit Code 5. The step failed.
Job name is collection_set_5_noncached_collect_and_upload, as I gothrough the google issue related to premission issue but where exactly the access issues are coimng, this job is running on proxy account. Thanks in advance.

Hi Srinivas,
Based on your description, you encounter the error message after configuring data collection in SQL Server 2008. For further analysis, could you please help to collect detailed log information? You can check the job history to find the error log around the
issue, as is mentioned in this
article. Also please check Data Collector logs by right-clicking on Data Collection in the Management folder and selecting View Logs.
In addition, as your post, the exit code 5 is normally a ‘Access is denied ’ code. Thus please make sure that the proxy account has admin permissions on your system. And ensure that SQL Server service account has rights to access the cache folder.
Thanks,
Lydia Zhang

Hello,
>>'\\DBBackup\SharePoint_backup\DB_backup_2014_02_13_122719_5314660.bak'. Operating system error 5(Access is denied.).
This clearly points out to fact that your SQL Server service account does not have permission of read/write on shared location,simple.
>>But when I open the shared path in the Windows Explorer it opens successfully.
This is because when you are browsing through explorer your windows login credential is used to access that folder but when you are running backup your SQL Server service account permission is used to write backup on shared folder ( which I assume it does
not have ) so the access denied error.
Hope this helps
PS: I reffered the link its maily how you specify backup path its not about access denied error due to SQL server service acount not having privilege
