SQL Server :: Error: Cannot Insert Explicit Value Fir Identity Column?
Mar 8, 2011
I have an insert table with identity specification set. And I getthis error. I'm using a stored procedure to store it. How do I correct it. I'm also using a details view on my insert page.
Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Cannot insert explicit value for identity column in table 'Insert' when IDENTITY_INSERT is set to OFF.
I am working on a web app for an online photo album. It is the last project in Scott Mitchell's book: "ASP.Net 2.0 in 24 hours".
I am creating a page where users can enter new photo images. The functionality for uploading an image will come later. I am working on just inserting a new row into the Pictures table with an optional category, a required title and a required description.
I am getting an error when I try to insert a new row.
Here is a screenshot of the page with a shot of the dropdown list.
The Categories are user-specific. I am getting the correct values retrieved.

There are two pretty simple database tables involved here.
NOTE: The CategoryID and PIctureID are both autoincrement integer columns.
[URL]
The page uses a DetailsView that uses a SqlDataSource that uses the Pictures table. (The DetailsView's Default Mode property is set to "Insert". The "Enable Inserting" checkbox is also checked.)
The dropdown list uses a dropdown control that uses a SqlDataSource that uses the Categories table.
When the "Insert" button is clicked the CategoryID value associated with selected (Category) Name on the dropdown list will be used along with the Title and Description values to insert a row in to the Pictures table. (If no Category value is selected, then a null value will be used for the CategoryID. This is OK because the CategoryID column in the Pictures table allows nulls.)
My problem is that I am getting this error:
Cannot insert explicit value for identity column in table 'Pictures' when IDENTITY_INSERT is set to OFF.
(FYI: I have the full version of both Visual Studio and SQL Server.)
Following the MVC1 vers of Nerddinner, but using 2010 and MVC2. Never seen this error. Looked in controller, model, view. Where does MVC pass the identity value, and how to stop it? I have never had to set IDENTITY_INSERT in any app before.
Cannot insert explicit value for identity column in table 'UserDetails' when IDENTITY_INSERT is set to OFF.
I'm trying to insert a record through a BLL (Business Logic Layer) class with an 'Insert' button attached to the FooterTemplate of a GridView2. My code:
[Code]....
[Code]....
BLL layer code:
[Code]....
The field 'idUser' is autoincremented. When I use SqlDataSource with a DetailsView, add option it adds a record and autoincrements the 'isUser'.
I am developing a asp.net application and i am using SQL Server 2008. I took a IDENTITY column as Record_ID for detail table where i will have trillions of records per year. So just want to ask whats the largest number record id (identity) column can hold and in ASP.NET which data type i should use to handle record id as i am using this id as a reference to update the table data. I don't want to end up being trapped some day.
I have a table converted from Access and the identity keys were lost. Now I need to make the id column the identity column, but it already has a lot of null values, how do I auto generate integer values for the null rows? The row ids are incremented, so if there is a way to auto increment the ids
I am facing a problem here. I have a column where the value is equivalent to my identity column's value. For an example, I have a column A store is "ABC0001" and the 0001 is came from a column called Column B which identity on. when a new record inserted and Column B is next identity number and Column A value is "ABC" and add number from Column B.
I recently moved a .net site from one machine to another, now for some reason one of the stored procedures is throwing an exception when attempting to insert!
Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: An explicit value for the identity column in table 'dbo.tbl_Events' can only be specified when a column list is used and IDENTITY_INSERT is ON
BTW, the column in question does have the identity set to Yes in management studio
I was using originally SQL 2005, now its on SQLexpress 2008
In the tutorial I am doing I have been requested to change a field in the colums properties of a table. The ID column is currentl displaying NO and NO again for "is aIdentity. I can Highlight the values but cannot change to yes. either in the properties talbe or in the properties window on the right hand side of IDE interface. How do I change that value?
actually recently we just shifted our website. & now when i try to transfer database from my previous server to new remote server database.all the tables auto increment field is set to 'NO' and there is no primary key anymore.
I have a table called category that has tow attribute (Cid,Name)
what can i do to insert category name only without allow user to insert category id in my webpage, I use view detail control and make the wizard link but when run the error message appear (Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'Cid)
I've build a query, but the where statement is doing strange things. First my query:
select * from ( SELECT 1 as Tag, null as Parent, row_number() OVER (ORDER BY tblOccasion.ID DESC) AS [tblOccasion!1!rownum], FROM tblOccasionwhere tblOccasion.UserID = @UserName and ((tblOccasion.MerkDesc like '%' + @search + '%')or(tblOccasion.UitvoeringDesc like '%' + @search + '%')or(tblOccasion.UitvoeringDesc like '%' + @search + '%')) ) AS A where a.[tblOccasion!1!rownum] BETWEEN (@startRowIndex) AND (@startRowIndex+@pageSize) order by a.[tblOccasion!1!MerkDesc!Element],a.[tblOccasion!1!TypeDesc!Element],a.[tblOccasion!1!UitvoeringDesc!Element] FOR XML EXPLICIT;
But the result should be ordered by Merkdesc, then TypeDesc, and then as last the uitvoeringDesc. So for testing i only used the MerkDesc. The strange thing is that i get the result:
BMW BMW BMW Opel Volvo
But this was page 1, on page 2 (paging) you got BMW again... so he takes the first 5 rows ore something and then the order. But i like that he first orders it by MerkDesc and then picks the first 5. How can i change that, i can't add a Order by in the inline sql statement i get this error: Msg 1033, Level 15, State 1, Procedure MijnAdvertenties, Line 47 De ORDER BY-component is ongeldig in weergaven, in line functies, afgeleide tabellen en algemene tabelexpressies, tenzij ook TOP of FOR XML is opgegeven.
would like to know how to feed data for columns like Logged-in user id , Updated date, created date etc... I have these audit columns on each and every table. User id: Logged in user idCreated date or modified date: current system date time. and don'nt want to show these columns on the UI as well.
im working with visualstudio 2005 and sql server 2005 c#,and i tried to insert an items to the sql but it gave me this error

I have a registration page that must contain a user id label. When a user tries to register, the label on the page should show the identity value for the registration before completion. How to do this?
I have a number of tables that together make up a "Test" that somebody can take. There are multiple types (scripts) of Test a person can take. I'm working on an Edit function that will allow somebody to edit the Test Questions. I want these edited questions to show up on all new Tests of that type, but still show the old questions when viewing past test scores.
To do this each "Test" has a TestId auto-increment identity (along with its name). When a test is edited I want to make a copy of the test with a new TestId and present the questions for editing.
So what is the best way to make the copy and insert it into my table using LINQ to SQL? This:
DataContext db = new DataContext(ConnectionString); //Copy old test into identical new test but with a different script ID var oldScript = db.TestScripts.Single(ds => ds.TestScriptId == oldScriptID); var newScript = oldScript; db.TestScripts.InsertOnSubmit(newScript); db.SubmitChanges();
of course tells me that I Cannot add an entity that already exists.
Is the only way to do this to go through every column in the TestScript and copy it manually, then insert it, and the database will give it a new Id?
