Unable to open physical file - Operating system error 5: 5(error not found) Microsoft SQL Server: Error 5120


I am trying to attach a database to SQL 2005. This database has not previously been attached. I have only just installed SQL.

I get the following message: Unable to open physical file "C:\ArrowSQL\Arr@Data\Arrow_data.mdf" Operating system error 5: "5(error not found)" (Microsoft SQL Server: Error 5120)".

I have loaded SQL and the database fiel and directory with the same user acccount which is a local adminstrator ont hsi machine. I have checked that I have read/write access to the file.

The machine runs Windows Vista Business. SQL has SP 2 loaded.
Use the below script to find the sql service account

Code Snippet
declare @sqlser varchar(20)
EXEC master..xp_regread @rootkey='HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE',@key='SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Services\MSSQLSERVER',
@value_name='objectname', @value=@sqlser OUTPUT
PRINT 'Account Starting SQL Server Service:' +convert(varchar(30),@sqlser)


After getting the service account try the below steps to provide privilege

  • Right click on the folder C:\ArrowSQL\Arr@Data and click on properties
  • Click on security tab
  • Click on Add button and add sql service account
  • Provide modify privilege and click ok
  • Verify both mdf and ldf have modify privilege
  • Attach the db!

    BEST METHOD.


    You can also try the below alternate method to find service account

    • Goto RUN
    • Type services.msc & press enter
    • In service control manager find the below service w.r.t to your edition.
    For SQL 2000
    MSSQLSERVER -- for default instance
    MSSQL$instancename -- for named instance

    For SQL 2005 & SQL 2008
    SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) -- for default instance
    SQL Server (instancename) -- for named instance
    • Check the "Log On as" for the SQL service and provide modify privilege to that ID in the folder.

Call User-defined Function on Linked Server :SQL Server

If you try to invoke a user-defined function (UDF) through a linked server in SQL Server by using a "four-part naming" convention (server.database.dbo.Function), you may receive error message.  The reason is User-defined function calls inside a four-part linked server query are not supported in SQL Server. Thats why error message indicates that the syntax of a Transact-SQL statement is incorrect.  To work around this problem, use the Openquery function instead of the four-part naming convention. For example, instead of the following query Select * from Linked_Server.database.dbo.Function(10) run a query with the Openquery function: Select * from Openquery(Linked_Server,'select database.dbo.Function(10)') If the user-defined function takes variable or scalar parameters, you can use the sp_executesql stored procedure to avoid this behavior.  For example: exec Linked_Server.database.dbo.sp_executesql N'SELECT database.dbo.Function(@input)',N'@input...

RDLC Report - Add column to a dataset in existing report and save report in older format ( 2008)

I have an rdlc that has a separately-defined dataset. The time has come that I have the need to add a column to one of the tables, which I can do without issue. However, when I open the rdlc to use the new column, it does not appear in the Report Data pane. This issue was reported to Microsoft here, but it was closed as by design. The workaround offered with the issue does not seem to work for VS2010 (refresh the dataset or the table; neither does anything). Solution The only way to add a column to a dataset that is already attached to an rdlc is to hand-edit the xml (i.e. open the rdlc with your favorite text editor and add a Field to the appropriate table). After doing this, the field appears in the Report Data pane in the Design Pane, and you can use it as if it were there from the beginning. Save the report. Replace Report tag with the following line Then remove the following head, //keep the data here ...
