Using SQL Server credentials with Secure Store Target Application for Data Connection in Dashboard Designer

[Using SharePoint 2013 Enterprise SP1]
I would like to use SQL Server credentials in a Secure Store Target Application, and
this page makes it look like it's possible but when I attempt to use the new Target Application ID as authentication for a Data Connection in Dashboard Designer, I get a generic "Unable to access data source" with no error logged in SQL Server
logs.
I am able to use a Target Application with AD credentials to access the SQL db without a problem. Suggestions?

Hi,
1. Make sure that the credential is set to
Secure Store Target Application. Navigate to the Central Administration. Click on the
Application Management. Click on the Manage Service Applications. Click on the
Secure Store Service Application. Select the application ID and from the ECB menu click on the
Set Credentials. Enter the Credential Owner, Windows User Name and the
Windows Password.
2. Make sure that in the Dashboard Designer “Use a stored account” is selected in the “Authentication” and the proper application ID is mentioned.
Please refer to the link below for more information:

Excel documents attempting to use non-existing Secure Store target application for unattended account

Hey,
I have been brought in to take a look at a few errors experienced on a SharePoint 2013 farm that will be used for BI functionality. One of the errors is the following:
This happens when I attempt to refresh a Excel document that is using an unattended account. The application that it attempts to access (named in the error) does not exist in the Secure Store Service. I have checked the Excel Service Global Settings
and the Target Application ID of the Unattended Service Account does not match what is given in the error (but matches a target application id that exists).
Is there anywhere that you can override the global settings of the excel service? Is there something else that might be wrong?
Any help is appreciated.
Regards
Knut

I have raised an SR. I have provided them with error code,screen shots and log files.
They are suggesting me to do a fresh install of SOA. But I feel that is not the correct solution.
Now I can do that as i have only two processes running on the server.
Imagine If I have lof of processes running on the server. moreover I can't do it every time when i face this kind of errors on the PROD server.
Anyway thanks for your suggestion.
How long you have been working with oracle SOA suite?
Thanks

Using SQL Server 2012 Express with Bitocker

Hello,
I'm currently working on getting our SQL Server Express database working with BitLocker but I am coming across a few problems. Here is my scenario:
The OS is partitioned into two volumes (C and D).
The C volume contains the OS and Software, while the D volume is primarily used for the database files (logs, back, and mdf).
The D volume is encrypted using BitLocker
The database connects using the SA account (SQL Server Authentication)
From what I understand, BitLocker must be enabled with the same account that the SQL Server is running on. So what I have done is change the SQL Server service account to the user account (lets say its called User) via SQL Configuration Manager. While staying
logged into User account, I then enable BitLocker via Control Panel -> System and Security -> BitLocker Drive Encryption. I then reboot and then while the software is trying to connect to the database I get the following exception:
'login failed for user sa'.
Is there anything I need to do to get this working? Thanks for the help.

Hi moncadad,
When you turn off BitLocker, does the database also show “Recovery Pending”? If so, the simplest cause for “Recovery Pending” might be that a disk spin-up was slow, or a disk became full. Please read this
blog to fix the issue, then check if you can successfully connect to the database after you turn on BitLocker.
However, if you are not able to view the database contents only after you turn on BitLocker, I suspect that there are some issues about configuring BitLocker. As far as I know, Bitlocker must be performed by a member of Local Admins Group, please make sure
that your account is a member of Local Admins Group on your computer.
Also I would like to recommend you post the question in the
Microsoft Bitlocker Administration and Monitoring (MBAM) forum to get better support. For more details about configuring SQL Server with Bitlocker, please review the following similar articles.

In this forum we commonly discuss connections from Oracle to foreign databases. When you want to connect with your SQL Server to Oracle it would be better to ask that in a Microsoft forum as they support their LINKED SERVER mechanism.
The linked server set up is for example described in the Microsoft knowledge base as:
280106 - HOW TO: Set Up and Troubleshoot a Linked Server to Oracle in SQL Server
In newer SQl Server releases the name changed see for example:
How to run a SQL Server 2005 Integration Services package as a SQL Server Agent job step
View products that this article applies to.
Article ID : 912911
As you can see they are commonly using OLEDB driver. So you might have to install Oracle's OLEDB driver as well. Else you might think about using OLEDB to ODBC bridge

Hi,
Yes you can, but you should be aware of the limitations of MS SQL Express version.
1. 1GB RAM
2. 10 GB database size per database excluding log file (SQL 2008 R2 and above)
3.Job Scheduling service is not available with SQL Server Express.
4.Data import and export feature is not available with SQL Server Express.
5.Limitation on number of CPU

Error with Secure Store Service

Hi - I sure could use some help with an issue I'm having trying to configure the Secure Store Service in SharePoint 2010.
I'm using SharePoint Server 2010 and this is the first time that I've installed and trying to configure. When I try to generate a key for the Secure Store Service App, I get this error: "Cannot complete this action as the Secure Store Shared Service is not
responding. Please contact your Administrator."
I also see an error in the Event Viewer: "The Secure Store Service application Secure Store Service App is not accessible. The full exception text is: Access is denied"
I have verified that the App Pool is using the correct domain acount and the database security allows this same acount as well. The account is DBO in the Secure Store databse. What else should I check that would cause access denied?
Thank you!
Kerry

I found when the error message dialog box has a phrase like "Additional information has been logged for your administrator" it means to check the Windows Event-Application log (not the SP correlation ID log). In my case, the specific domain\uid being
denied was mentioned in the error message details. I found that the domain\uid in that message was not in the SQL Server log in collection with permissions to the appropriate DBs. The Event-Application log also told me which DB object was being
denied. I set the account for dbo access to simplify my work (dbo is needed to run stored procedures and functions). Other attributes (other than dbo) may be sufficient and "more secure".

SQL server 2000 with Java Problems

Dear Sir.
I am a new user for SQL server 2000 with java. Nevertheless, I developed an application for store images and text data into SQL 2000 database using java. Presently my system is running 12-client computer with one server computer, I installed SQL server 2000 into server then I access (save, insert, select, and get report) through ODBC diver to server using java application, system is ok but some time the server computer is getting struck.
Please let me know if there is a solution to overcome this problem.
My client computer configuration
Windows xp
1.8 MHz CPU � 512 � 768 RAM
My Server computer configuration
3.0 Dual core Intel - 1 GB RAM
Window 2000 server

but some time the server computer is getting struck.Can you measure which application is eating up the resources? Anyway, the hardware sounds OK for that number of clients, but of course it depends on the intensity they work with.
The suspicious part is the ODBC driver. Is there a reason not to use the JDBC driver for SQL server provided by microsoft? I guess it will speed things up.

Migrating CMP EJB mapped to SQL Server table with identity column from WL

Hi,
I want to migrate an application from Weblogic to SAP Netweaver 2004s (7.0). We had successfully migrated this application to an earlier version of Netweaver. I have a number of CMP EJBs which are mapped to SQL Server tables with the PK as identity columns(autogenerated by SQL Server). I am having difficulty mapping the same in persistant.xml. This scenario works perfectly well in Weblogic and worked by using ejb-pk in an earlier version of Netweaver.
Please let me know how to proceed.
-Sekhar

I suspect it is the security as specified in the message. E.g .your DBA set the ID columns so no user can override values in it.
And I suggest you 1st put the data into a staging table, then push it to the destination, this does not resolve the issue, but ensures better processing.

Import multiple files using sql server management studio

Using sql server management studio I want to do 2 things.
- Import all txt files from a directory as tables into my DB.
- Add an additional field to each new table which contains the table name.
Can anyone help me?

There are couple of ways to do it:
File naming conventions : YourFileName_SystemId.txt
You can create one extra column in table or may be name a table with system id. Then after loading the data you can update that column with the system id.
components required:
ForEachLoopContainer - To get file and store file name in a variable
Expression Task (if SSIS 2012 or above) or variable expression or script task to seperate file name from systemId
Data Flow Task - to load data
Execute SQL Task - to update last column or specific table based on precedence constraints
Note: You can also add extra column in data flow via
derived column transformation.
Ex.:
Load file via foreach loop
Split string via seprator
2: Loading different system file in different folder
you can have predefined folder structure ex: SystemId1, SyetemId2 etc and can download respective txt file in their system folder. Then you can easily identity which file belong to which system and then load it to the respective table.
3: Use first row of text file to hold the system value
Use first row to have the system id and then skip row while fetching data.
Note: Then you have to read first row through script task to get the system id.
hope this will help
