I'm trying to enable Full-Text search on my Azure SQL Database. I upgraded my DB to V12 Standard instance. The upgrade has got completed successfully. I say that because the Status says "Online" on the portal. However, when I execute this command below,
CREATE FULLTEXT CATALOG ftCatalog AS DEFAULT;
it throws an error saying,
Msg 9972, Level 16, State 100, Line 2
Database is not fully started up or it is not in an ONLINE state. Try the full-text DDL command again after database is started up and becomes ONLINE.
I am following this blog post
What could be wrong?
Executing the below two statements by connecting to the database as well fixes this if in case you want to avoid the round trip of communicating to MSFT.
Alter database [dbname] set read_committed_snapshot off with rollback immediate
Alter database [dbname] set read_committed_snapshot on with rollback immediate
Thank you for the question. The error you are experiencing is related to an internal issue that we are aware of and currently in the process of fixing. To mitigate your issue, could you please email me at joseidz at microsoft dot com with server and database name and we will get this fixed for you.

I have tried to rename the DB name in a RDS with SSMS but its giving below error.
User does not have permission to alter database 'DB name', the
database does not exist, or the database is not in a state that allows
access checks. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 5011)
Can some one please help me on this?
I have went through many articles and aws docs but did not find straight away solution so I am writing this, hope it helps someone. After some amendments to the findings, I was able to fix this issue.
Run the below queries as master on new query terminal.
use master
ALTER DATABASE YourOldDBname
SET SINGLE_USER WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE
GO
EXEC rdsadmin.dbo.rds_modify_db_name N'YourOldDBname', N'YourNewDBname'
GO
ALTER DATABASE YourNewDBname
SET MULTI_USER
GO
If you have any active connection, you might get below error. Mostly you will not get any error as you are running above queries, if you still seeing below error please shut down any server that might be trying to establish a connection to same RDS DB.
Msg 50000, Level 16, State 2, Procedure rds_modify_db_name, Line 95 https://forums.aws.amazon.com/
The database could not be exclusively locked to perform the operation.
Hope its helped you :)
I have a SQL Server 2016 on a Windows Server 2016.
The database is stuck in single user mode.
I try to do this :
ALTER DATABASE MyDatabase
SET MULTI_USER;
But it says that the database is in use.
I tried this to find the spID :
exec sp_who
And I found the spid 57 is using the database,
Tried this to kill the spID
KILL 57
But it says : Process ID 57 is not an active process ID.
I am really stuck!
I can't even rename or delete the database.
I tried all of these but, didn't work :
SQL Server 2008 R2 Stuck in Single User Mode
Any idea please ?
It means that the DB is in use, it's set to single user mode, and you're not that single user. A common cause of that is that Object Explorer in SSMS is connected to the DB. Close everything that's connected to the server (even restart the SQL Server service if you need to), and try again. At worst, don't use SSMS. Just connect with SQLCMD, so you know that nothing else is connected.
I found the solution,
I restarted the sql server service, re-execute the query exec sp_who and found another spID and could kill it this time.
Thanks
From the Official docs you can try changing it a little bit by removing the read-only part
ALTER DATABASE [database_name]
SET SINGLE_USER
WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE;
GO
ALTER DATABASE [database_name]
SET MULTI_USER;
GO

I have a SQL server database that has been running perfectly fine on my machine for about 6 months, a couple days ago out of nowhere it was inaccessible (Pending Recovery).
I did a bunch of Googling and have tried the following things to fix the issue but thus far restoring it from a previous backup is the only thing that seems to work.
I have tried (From SMS and SQLCMD):
ALTER DATABASE mydatabase SET EMERGENCY
ALTER DATABASE mydatabase set single_user
DBCC CHECKDB (mydatabase, REPAIR_ALLOW_DATA_LOSS) WITH ALL_ERRORMSGS;
ALTER DATABASE mydatabase set multi_user
Step #3 errors out with: "cannot open mydatabase is already open and can only have one user at a time"
Second try:
EXEC sp_resetstatus 'mydatabase';
ALTER DATABASE mydatabase SET EMERGENCY
DBCC CHECKDB ('mydatabase')
ALTER DATABASE mydatabase SET SINGLE_USER WITH ROLLBACK IMMEDIATE
DBCC CHECKDB ('mydatabase', REPAIR_ALLOW_DATA_LOSS)
ALTER DATABASE mydatabase SET MULTI_USER
Step #5 errors out with the same error.
My question is what could be causing this in the first place and how can I fix it properly without having to do a restore twice a day.
Database is already open and can only have one user at a time, this is error number 924. The complete error message looks like this:
An exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch. (Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo)
Msg 924, Level 14, State 1, Line 1 Database ‘db_name’ is already open and can only have one user at a time.
The level 14 belongs to security level errors like a permission denied. It means that it cannot be open because someone is using it.
Use the sp_who or sp_who2 stored procedures. You can also use the kill command to kill the processes that are active in the database.
I also found this thread useful: How to fix Recovery Pending State in SQL Server Database?
what could be causing this in the first place and how can I fix it properly without having to do a restore
The most likely cause is a a hardware or driver problem with your hard disk.
In my case, I had databases set up on my local machine but on an external drive mapped to my hard drive. I have the external drive connected to my docking station all the time but I had to disconnect the hard drive and after I connected it again - the databases that are restored on the external drive went into Recover Pending mode.
In my case what helped me was to set the database offline in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio by right clicking on the database - Tasks - Take Offline. The status of the database changes to Offline. After that bring the database online again by right clicking on the database - Tasks - Bring online.
The database was successfully recovered without any issues. But if the cause is different these steps may not help.
Take the database offline
Bring the database back online
I'm using SSEUtil to automatically create a functional test database from the schema derived from my development database (SQL Server 2008 R2) as part of my build process. This allows me to keep the two databases in-sync (schema-wise) without running SQL repository tests against my development database.
I recently added a full text index to a table for the first time for this project in my development schema and now when I attempt to apply the schema to a newly created unit test database I get the following error when it executes the SQL to create the full text catalog:
CREATE FULLTEXT CATALOG [FullTextCatalog] AUTHORIZATION [dbo]
GO
Cannot use full-text search in user instance.
[SqlException Number 9982, Class 16, State 100, Line 1]
I've searched high and low. The only help I found was on another site where someone suggested "attaching to the parent database." I have no idea what that means. And I have no idea what this error means. What is a "user instance"?
Can anyone suggest a way around this? Is there a better way to keep two database schemas in-sync for continuous integration?
Either
User must have CREATE FULLTEXT CATALOG permission on the database, or be a member of the db_owner, or db_ddladmin fixed database roles.
or
you won’t be able to use full text catalogues if the SQL instance does not have it installed. Make sure the SQL server instance has the full text service running.
Here are two ways of testing whether this feature installed or not. This feature is available for all editions of SQL Server 2005 and 2008 (including SQL Express)
Check the services applet (run -> type 'services.msc') for this entry :
SQL Server FullText Search Or SQL Server FullText Search (SQLEXPRESS) (in case of SQL Express). Start this service of not running
Run the query "select fulltextserviceproperty('isfulltextinstalled')" in the Query analyzer. if the result is '1' then it is installed else not.
In the case of unavailability of this feature, you need to install by downloading the "SQLEXPR_ADV.EXE" from http://www.microsoft.com/express/sql/download/default.aspx

This is not really an answer to the question, but I came upon a similar issue with visual studio package manager when updating an entity framework code-first database (command update-database).
The problem was that I selected the wrong start-up project, and therefore visual studio was not using my connection string at all. It was connecting to a localdb instance, hence the cryptic error message "cannot use full text search in user instance". Once I made it connect to the actual database, it worked as expected.
I also came across this user instance issue. I have to admit that I only have basic knowledge of SSMS. Apparently I'm logged as the public user. How can I be a member of db_owner? I try to generate and script everything without using the GUI.
For example, if I execute this
ALTER AUTHORIZATION ON DATABASE::[dbname] TO sa;
EXEC sp_changedbowner 'sa';
I still get the Cannot use full-text search in user instance error with
USE [dbname]
CREATE FULLTEXT CATALOG [ftc_dbname] AS DEFAULT
GO
I`ve got a problem with my mirroring. I have already uses this feature to make 2 db work.
But it was on test bases.
Now when I use my scripts on work DB it throws an error:
Msg 1499, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Database mirroring error: status 1488, severity 16, state 1, string db_name.
Any suggestions?
you database may be in single user mode
right click the database -> options and select MULTI USER under restrict access
try to check the principal and mirror server names, dtabase name etc. It is possible that there is misprints.
This happened to us recently. We found that SQL set the restored database to single user mode during the restore process.
After some research, we simply restarted SQL server services on the mirror. When SQL started back up, the restored database was in multi-user mode and we were able to initialize mirroring without any issues.
There are other sites out there with answers as well, but they involve taking down the principle database. That was not really an option for us at the time. Here is one example in case restarting the mirror does not help the next person who runs into this.

I had some what similar issue this is how I solved it. When I ran wizard for mirroring it created endpoints(first part) successfully but when i tried to turn on mirroring it gave me error.
So I solved it by running below command on both server
USE [master]
alter database [yourdatabase] set partner off;
go
--Secondary already had partner but primary did not
--- then i ran below commands on each server.
USE [master]
ALTER DATABASE [yourdatabase]
SET PARTNER = 'TCP://OtherMachineSQLname.domain.LOCAL:5022';
GO
-- then mirroring started to work.
