Get Details about SQL Server TempDB Database MDF and LDF Files and Change the Path of these files

In order to check the details about the SQL Server TempDB database MDF and LDF files, we can use the following command:

USE tempdb
EXEC sp_helpfile
GO

This will return details about SQL Server TempDB MDF and LDF files as given in the below screenshot:

The details are the default values that are used by SQL Server for the TempDB, in case we have not changed at the time of installation. In case we want to change the path and file name, we can use the following command:

USE master
GO
ALTER DATABASE tempdb MODIFY FILE (NAME = tempdev, FILENAME = 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\tempdb_new.mdf')
GO
ALTER DATABASE tempdb MODIFY FILE (NAME = templog, FILENAME = 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA\templog_new.ldf')
GO

The above will change the path and names of the TempDB MDF and LDF files. But in order to actually come in effect, we need to restart the SQL Server Service.

Happy Coding!!!

How to use QueryExtenderControl in ASP.NET with LINQ

Queryextender control is a control that helps in doing actions like filtration, searching, sorting etc. on the LINQ Data source with few steps. In fact we don’t have to write any code with this. Screenshot given below is just an example that can easily be achieved through this control. In the above screenshot, we can see that there is a GridView Control that has been binded to a LINQData Source Control. And we have a DropDownlistBox that is also binded to another LINQData Source Control and displaying only grouped jobs. The GridView display all the employees who are matching the Job Parameter. This is done through QueryExtender Control. Also we can search for any name in the employee name's through Query Extender control. The code in the HTML goes like: < form id ="form1" runat ="server"> < div > Select Job: < asp : DropDownList ID ="Job" runat ="server" DataSourceID ="LinqDataSource2...

SQLServer Error: 15404, Could not obtain information about Windows NT group/user Error code 0x5. [SQLSTATE 42000] (ConnIsLoginSysAdmin)

Go to SQL Server Agent. b. Then select the job which is giving error and not running successfully. c. Then choose properties and in the General Tab, change the owner to "SA" or any account that has the administrative privileges. The problem will be resolved.

How to Delete Record through Knex.

This post is all about of deleting records through KNEX ORM in Nodejs. The following code shows how to achieve this: knex("depts").where("deptno","50").del() .then(function (count) { console.log(count); }) .finally(function () { knex.destroy(); }); The above code deletes a record from a table "Depts" where Deptno = 50. It has a "then" Promise attached that will show how many records were deleted with this command. Also "finally" is the method that will always execute and will close the KNEX connection. Happy Coding !!!
