change database owner

Hello,

I restored and renamed a client database from a backup file to my laptop (both SQL Express 2005) and noticed that no owner had been assigned. I set the db-owner to SA. This database will replace a local version of the same database that was created on my laptop. (The customer has entered data...)

When I start the dataset configuration wizard in VS2005 all tables appear twice in the list. Once with the original name and once with the prefix dbo. For example: Customer and dbo.Customer.

The tables with the dbo. prefix are marked with a Red Cross in the checkbox. Hovering over them display the error message: "Element .. in the dataset references an object missing from the database. "

The tables without the dbo. prefix are not marked. When I mark these tables VS2005 indicates that the table will be renamed to Customer1. The same issue applies to all the views in the database.

Is there a way to solve this problem without having to recreate the entire dataset? I'd rather not do that cause I added some queries to the dataset and they will be lost and have to be recreated.

Any help will be appreciated.

hi,

I could not reproduce the problem... even not assigning a valid db owner to the restored db, the VS designer did not present a doubled list of db objects...

I can only think verifying the user your login is bound is not member of the dbo schema... try smodifying the "default" user's schema to dbo as well...

regards

Catching errors in SSIS Backup Database Task

Hi,

In my SSIS package, I have a backup database task. When I run the package with DestinationAutoFolderPath set to a folder ("Network Service" account has full permission on this folder) and DestinationCreationType set to Auto, the task works just fine creating a backup with its own name. (similar to database_date<count>).

But what I want is in my front-end I am allowing the user to specify the name of the backup file. So I want the task to create the backup file in the name I supply. I set the DestinationCreationType to manual and in the application code added the DestinationManualList with the path from the UI.

Now the pacakge runs fine but does not take any backup. There is no errors as well. If I set the FailPackageOnFailure and FailParentOnFailure to true, then I am getting the DTSExecResult.Failure but I am not getting the actual error from the backup database task.

Am I missing anything here?

Thanks in advance,
Srikanth.

How are you executing the package?

What does the logfile (I assume that you have one) say?

Thanks a lot for the reply.

I enabled the log in package and the backup database task. The following is the text appears in the log file:

The thing is, I configured the DestinationCreationType to "manual" and added my backup file name through coding to DestinationManualList ArrayList:

if (backupTask.DestinationManualList == null)
backupTask.DestinationManualList = new ArrayList();

backupTask.DestinationManualList.Add(m_SSISArgs.DatabaseBackupPath);

The objective is to create backup of the database with the file name I am giving. Do I have to set anyother property for this...
