problem restoring a backup
I have a backup file (xxxx.bak) in my c:\trmp directory. When I launch SSMS signed on as "sa" and try to restore this database, i get this window: I am not able to enter anything for "Database" and the dropdown is empty. Then if I switch it to "Device" I get this window: Now, under "Destination" I am able to enter a database name, i.e. the name I want the database to be referred to after I restore it. However, note the message at the top of the window: No backupset selected to be restored. How do I resolve this issue? Murray

Hi, I am unable to drop the user from the SSISDB, I am getting the below error, has anyone experienced the same issue? "The database principal has granted or denied permissions to catalog objects in the database and cannot be dropped. The transaction ended in the trigger. The batch has been aborted.

Hi, We have a cognos datastage job that updates a table. It fails with an error that the table is locked., see below ini_PerformanceManagement_tblEmployees,0: ODBC function "SQLExecute" reported: SQLSTATE = 40001: Native Error Code = 1,205: Msg = [Microsoft][ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server][SQL Server]Transaction (Process ID 67) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Rerun the transaction. (CC_OdbcDBStatement::executeUpdate, file CC_OdbcDBStatement.cpp, line 1,058) Anyone any ideas about how to resolve this? Thanks for your time, Ollie
SSMS - Display time query was executed
Would you like to see the time that you started a query in SSMS? I do because I normally run multiple queries and need to know when I started the first query, and second, etc. Please upvote my suggestion to display the query start time in SSMS. It's under consideration given the community's demand. Thanks!SQL Server Manager Studio V21 failed to install Configuration Manager
I installed SQL Server Management Studio V21 specifically: Step 2 - Determine which version of SQL Server Management Studio to install Decide which version of SSMS to install. The most common options are: The latest release of SQL Server Management Studio 21 that is hosted on Microsoft servers. To install this version, select the following link. The installer downloads a small bootstrapper to your Downloads folder. It downloaded a file: vs_SSMS.exe which I clicked on and "run as Administrator". FYI: It used the Visual Studio installer which I do NOT like since I was not able to follow the progress of the installation. After the installation completed I tried to connect as "sa" with my password and got this message: See SQL Server V21 error.png SQL Server is installed locally on my laptop, not on a network. I want to change to use TCPIP protocol for my connections. Also, when I looked at "Services" I did NOT find a service for Microsoft SQL Server. Any assistance would be appreciated. Thanks MurraySSMS Edit rows hangs if open for long time
If you have Edit rows open for a long time (~1h) and submit a change, SSMS (v20.2) sometimes hangs. There's no errors or anything visible and the application becomes unresponsive (sometimes there's a "SSMS is busy"-notification and has to be killed. Feels like the value submission is missing refresh token and/or error response handling. Update does not get processed, but always a bit scary if I had something else open that was. Not sure if there's a way to report such bugs.Unable to restore a backup
I have a backup named: xxxx.bak currently in my Temp directory. This backup was made from SSMS V20. I recently installed SSMS V21 and unable to restore this backup. Steps to reproduce: Open SSMS connected as "sa" Highlite "Database", right click to select "Restore Database" The window opens, I choose "General" under "Select a page", no "databases" are listed. I then switch to "device", again no "databases" are listed. I then look under "Destination, there are several database listed there but not the one I wish to restore. I'm not sure what step, if any, that I am missing. Murray
