I have share folder in server A with permissions.
and I'm trying to use bulk insert from server B.
I've also added network location to server 'B' with 'A'(trying to use the local path - but nothing).
using sql server 2008 r2
the SQL authentication is: Sql server.
In addition there is no domain controller to those servers, but obviously there are under the same network .
the error is:
Cannot bulk load because the file \\\server\folder\file could not be opened. Operating system error code 5(Access is denied.).
what can I do?
thanks
The SQL Server process identity (service account) security context is used when the BULK INSERT T-SQL statement is invoked from a SQL authenticated connection. Without a domain infrastructure, you will need to either allow Everyone access to the file and share or create a local Windows account on both servers with the same account name and password. Use that local Windows account as the SQL Server service account (specified via the SQL Server Configuration Manager).

Trying to link a server that I only have read-access to and uses windows authentication to log me in. I'm trying to link it to my local database so I can combine commands in both databases because my web application executes stored procedures.
Is this possible?
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/relational-databases/system-stored-procedures/sp-addlinkedserver-transact-sql?view=sql-server-2017
Yes, you can.
From your description, you want to uses windows authentication to log in the linked server.
When a linked server is created by using sp_addlinkedserver, a default self-mapping is added for all local logins. As a result, if the windows account for the local server also exist in the remote account, you can log in the linked server via the current windows account.
Besides after adding the linked server, you can also create a mapping between a login on the local instance of SQL Server and a security account on a remote server. For detailed information, please refer to the sp_addlinkedsrvlogin (Transact-SQL).
I keep reading articles online that say this is possible but nothing that says how to do it. I have an SQL Server 2014 server and I want to create a linked server to a SharePoint site. I can go to Server Objects > Linked Server > New but then I don't know what to do.
Follow the steps below:
1.Open SQL Server Management Studio, enter the name of your local SQL Server, and then select Connect.
2.Expand Server Objects, right-click Linked Servers, and then select New Linked Server. To see Server Objects, connect to a local on-premises SQL Server. Then, Server Objects should be displayed.
3.In the Linked server text box, enter the full network name of the SQL Server you want to link to.
4.Under Server type, select SQL Server.
5.In the left pane, select Security. In this step, you map the local account you created to the remote server login.
6.Select Add, and enter the following:
a.Under Local Login, select the local account you created.
b.Check Impersonate if the local login also exists on the remote server.
c.Alternatively, if the local login will be mapped to a remote SQL Server login you, enter the Remote User name and Remote Password for the remote server login.
7.In the left pane, choose Server Options. Set the RPC and RPC Out parameters to True, and then select OK.

If you want to access SharePoint data from other application, I suggest you use SharePoint API(CSOM(C#), REST API or web service) to achieve it.

I would like to connect SQl server DB in VM using my local sql server management studio.
What should I need for server name ?
Can I use my server Windows authentication for VM in my local ?
Create an empty text file on your VM and give it extension .udl
Doubleclick on it now you can set the properties easy from combobox
Adjust the properties and click on "test connection" until it works
Now open the file in notepad and there you see a complete connection string.
Note that for SQL Server authentication you need to configure the protocol in SQL Server Configuration Manager
When you are in Management studio on your local machine, you will need the hostname or IP address of the VM.
For Windows Authentication, you will need an account on the local domain that both your workstation and the database VM are connected to.
For SQL server authentication, you will need an account in the SQL Server instance.
In both cases, security will need to be configured and associated with your account.
Are you on a domain, or is this just a private server?
Use name of the VM where SQL server is running.
And yes, you can use Windows authentication. Depending on your domain settings.
This will help you How to: Create a SQL Server Login It is not much difference from SQL login.
And if you are in Administrators group on machine running SQL Server, then your login already should be included.
And if your machine with Management Studio and server with SQL Server are in different domains, then you will need to run Management Studio under different account
runas /netonly /user:domain\username "c:\path\ssms.exe"

I have a little query that I want to bulk import from a shared network drive:
BULK INSERT
test
FROM
'\\fullpath\path\file.csv'
WITH
(FIELDTERMINATOR = ',', ROWTERMINATOR = '\n')
This doesn't work and gives this error:
Operating system error code 5(Access is denied.)
From what I've read, this is because the shared drive doesn't recognize the SQL Server user (me) because the authentications are different.
Would I be better off putting these files on the SQL Server itself, or granting some kind of permission on the shared drive? I'm not sure what to tell our IT group to do in terms of allowing SQL Server to "see" the shared drive.
Alternatively, I'm not sure how to access the SQL Server directory directly to place the CSV files. What do you all think?
You need to take a look at the SQL Server NT service on the server that hosts the SQL instance. Find out what account the NT service is running under (it could be an account that is local to the server, or a domain/AD account). That is the account that needs access to \\fullpath\path\, not the account you use to make your connection to the SQL instance.
I am a developer-having-to-play-admin and wish to connect to a remote sql server from my development machine using a sql server user ("op_web").
When I try to connect from vs2008 Server Explorer, I can connect to the server, but no databases are listed. If I connect using the server admin user, all databases are listed as expected.
The server is a relatively fresh install made by me.
I have
allowed for remote connections in sql server.
created the login op_web at server level
created a user at database level and assigned to login with same name
assigned roles to the user to allow for reading and writing - I have assigned no schemas and default schema for the user is dbo.
If I log on (locally at server) using sqlserver management studio/sqlserver authentication and the created login, I can display and alter table data as I would expect.
Remote access gives me no choice of databases.
Any pointers to what I might have missed?
You have to give your users rights on the database.
