I was hoping someone could help me with a question. I have a server that has a table with 5.6 million rows of data. I want to use DTS to transfer all the rows in the table from one SQL server to another via DTS, which I have got to work correctly. The problem I'm having is when I run the DTS job the 2nd time, it does all 5.6 million rows again and not just the deltas since the last DTS job. Is there anyway to use DTS to transfer the deltas (ex: 1000 rows since the last DTS job) from server 1 to server 2 ?
we have a table in an oracle database containing security information that is updated several times a day. the network connection into that oracle database is not always reliable. we would like to keep a copy of that table in a sql2005 database. the table will need to be refreshed 1/hr. it is a small table so performance won't be an issue.
would ssis be ideal for setting something like this up? i have never created an ssis package before (i'm an oracle dba crossing over). any pointers on how best to set this up?
Hi ... I am converting SqlServer 2000 databases to SqlServer 2005. It is working great for the most part. The issue I am having is that a user with a schema that owns objects is established in the database and no user is defined in the instance logins. I can see where if I add the instance login then the Principal_id does not match. Cannot drop the user/schema as there are referenced objects.
I got around this in SqlServer 2000 by updating the IDs to match but now they are views and updating is not allowed.
Is there a straightforward way to resynch the database user to a newly created login?
Hi,I had this problem in version 7 and dont remneber How I solved it!!I have installed a local SQL Server (2000 aka version 8) on myWorksation (W2K), I have picked NT authuntication.Everything was fine untill I changed my password. Now SQL server cannot start because it fails to login. The old password is embeddedsomwhere and I cant egt to it!!!My workstation is on a network, so the password is my networkpassword.Everythinng is MS on our network.Any help would be appreciated.ThanksFardad
We are trying to set up Web Synchronization, but we keep getting the error "IIS ws not found on the web server. Please specify a computer name that has IIS installed".
Our Distributor/Publisher are on one box, IIS on aother box. Both boxes are in the same domain (test environment), and both boxes are being logged into with a domain account.
We can get this to work in another similar environment so we don't know why this one isn't working. Is it permission issues?
I would like to request you to kindly point me to a location where I may obtain more ideas/suggetions/details on how synchronization may be performed in a real world scenario ?
MS has been promoting smart clients and offline availability, but I cant seem to find any material that outlines some ideas/techniques/pointers as to how this may be acheived sans SQL Server replication
Essentially, what I'm looking for is someting that would guide a not-so-solid-with-databases person like me through how synchronization (sans sql replication engine) may be implemented - any watchouts etc..
Hi all, here are my goals: Have the same DB on two different stand-alone computers, and keep them up-to-date from each other.
Basically a user would input to a DB for a week. Then every week or two, update the other stand alone DB with the new input. The DB would be exactly the same.
What are my options for this? I'd like it as easy as possible! Are there any software packages that deal with this type of transfer, etc.? Thank you!
I have to schedule the automatic restore the standby database fortesting backups . The database was already in log shipping mode. Up towhat point do I need to restore the database without affecting the logshipping sequence? Can we query the log shipping tables for the lastscn applied and recover up to that point? Any suggestoions are welcome.ThanksTram
All,I have an Access DB. On a nightly basis, I want to look at an OtherDB (not Access, but SQL) and:+ Add any new records from Other.Clients into Access.Clients
we have a merg replication running in three regions UK,USA and AU
my question is in one of our test environment testers managed to get a few tables out of synch while the replication is out.
we have re-established the replication since then and it worked fine untill they try to update records from those out of synch tables. as usual we get conflicts.
we don't really know how many tables are out of synch either. we have about 500 tables.
is there a way to synch tables from with in the merge replication??
As most of you do, I am eagerly awaiting the ability to synchronize my sql mobile database on the hand held to a local sql express database on my local machine
I know users in Microsoft have pointed out to us that we are getting things for free.
At the same time, Microsoft is getting our patience for free and at a cost to us developers.
Its nearly April and as one article says Microsoft will release a fix for this inadequacy
Microsoft...we are happy to pay for this. Palm offers it so what is the big deal. Its not the
reinvention of the wheel. We would have liked that instead of the server synchronization
that bypasses the local sql express database
I as many others are happy to pay
Please let us know when you will be addressing this problem.
I would appreciate the feedback and frustration of other developers. Maybe this will show them we are really running out of time with our clients
Hello,I'm relatively new to the database world so please forgive me inadvance for my ignorance. I have recently been tasked at my job withfinding a tool that will perform the following tasks: 1) extractschemas from a db, 2) produce a difference report between schemas fromtwo databases, and 3) synchronize two schemas. The purpose is forproduct upgrades during which an existing database schema will need tobe synchronized with a baseline schema.The tool must support the following database vendors (versions givenin parenthesis): Oracle (8i/9i), Sybase (12.x), Informix (9.x), MSS2000, and IBM DB2 (7/8).I have spent the last several days downloading and researching avariety of tools such as Aqua Data Studio, DbVisualizer, DBExplorer,DBDiff, and AdeptSQL. I thought it would be a good idea to post amessage to a few database newsgroups and ask for any recommendationsdatabase developers may have.So if anyone has any recommendations on such a tool or softwarepackage, I would greatly appreciate any information.Thanks!Chad Smith
I am running into a null reference exception on replication with SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition. The problem occurs at repl.synchronize(). Even though the statement is inside a try-catch block, the exception is not caught, and the application quits.
Device O/S: Windows Mobile 5.0 v 5.1.195 Build 14957.2.3.1 Hardware: Dell Axim X51v, Intel PXA270 Database: SQL 2005 SP2 (no post SP2-patches)
Exception shows as "an unexpected error has occured in AppName.exe. Select Quit and then restart this program, or select Details for more information." Details: .. at NullReferenceException at AppName.Form1.Synch() .. at .... (various lines) .. at AppName.Form1.Main()
The application is based on the tutorial (Creating a Mobile Application with SQL Server Compact Edition) at http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms171908.aspx.
The application was successfully working initially but then stopped working on replication after some minor modifications which were not related to the replication code, e.g. adding some buttons to the form.
Three things are puzzling me here..
1. The fact that this is a NullReferenceException and not a SqlCeException 2. Why the try-catch block doesn't work 3. Why the exception occurs
I would like to create a database for keeping track of payroll data for employees where the supervisors (job coaches) on our workshop floor can use a Pocket PC device to record the hourly employee data on the fly. Then at the end of the day, the supervisor can place the device in a cradle of some sort and synch the newly entered data into the main database.
I'm guessing that SQL Server Compact edition would be perfect for this type of task? Is that correct? Can someone give me recommendations on how to go about setting this up? What should I use as the main database? SQL Server? Access? Any advice is appreciated!
I am using SQL Server 2005 and trying to create a linked server on Oracle 10. I used the commands below: EXEC sp_addlinkedserver @server = 'test1', @srvproduct = 'Oracle', @provider = 'MSDAORA', @datasrc = 'testsource' exec sp_addlinkedsrvlogin @rmtsrvname = 'test1', @useself = 'false', @rmtuser='sp', @rmtpassword='sp'
When I execute select * from test1...COUNTRY I get the error. "The OLE DB provider "MSDAORA" for linked server "...." does not contain the table "COUNTRY". The table either does not exist or the current user does not have permissions on that table." The 'sp' user I am connecting is the owner of the table. What could be the problem ? Thanks a lot.
I'm inserting from TempAccrual to VacationAccrual . It works nicely, however if I run this script again it will insert the same values again in VacationAccrual. How do I block that? IF there is a small change in one of the column in TempAccrual then allow insert. Here is my query
INSERT INTO vacationaccrual (empno, accrued_vacation, accrued_sick_effective_date, accrued_sick, import_date)
Hi, i have a table with all employee bio-data in a completed project. Iam now working on another project with a table that needs the same data and here iam talking about 300 records that rarely change. Instead of re-entering this data in this new table, i want to import the data from the completed project into a table in this new project. Does any one have any idea how to achieve that or is there a better option to do the same. One more thing iam realising here is that iam going to use this same data in very many applications and some one from one department is going to enter this data in all these different applications. so i was wondering if there could be a way of having a central database that this guy can mantain and then i be able to use that table data in different applications that iam going to develop. I dont want to kill this unlucky guy with data entry tasks every time i deploy a new application. So basically, how can make one database application sever several different applications with its data.
I need to use Bulk insert statement for copying a table with 200 million rows to another table on the same server...the table has no primary key or identity column.... script for BULK INSERT ...
I'm trying to run a query on a SQL Server 2005 table which has a WHERE clause that requires a query from my SQL Compact table.
SELECT * from RemoteDB.TESTDB.dbo.Objects
WHERE Last_Updated > '2008-05-21 10:51:00'
AND Object_PARENT IN (select Object_CODE from LocalDB.PDADB.dbo.Objects)
Basicallly on a linked system, this query would find all new objects in my main database where the same objects exist in my local database. This would work just perfectly, no problems.
Now, the local database is actually on a PDA running SQL Server Compact Edition. There is currently no support for creating a linked environment. I have the option of pulling the table off the local db and pushing it to the remote db and then running the above query from within the single db and then retrieving the list of new entries and pulling them down to the local db but that is a HUGE amount of bandwidth, even if I just used the single primary key column.
Would anyone maybe have a little advice for me on how I could possibly achieve the above result on SQL Server Compact please?
i am inserting something into the temp table even without creating it before. But this does not give any compilation error. Only when I want to execute the stored procedure I get the error message that there is an invalid temp table. Should this not result in a compilation error rather during the execution time.?
--create the procedure and insert into the temp table without creating it. --no compilation error. CREATE PROC testTemp AS BEGIN INSERT INTO #tmp(dt) SELECT GETDATE() END
only on calling the proc does this give an execution error
I created am inventory table with few columns say, Servername, version, patching details, etc
I want a tracking of the table.
Let's say people are asked to modify the base table and I want a complete capture of the details modified and the session of the user ( ) who (system_user) is actually modifying the details.
Hi... I was hoping if someone could share me some thoughts with the issue that I am having at the moment.
Problem: When I run the package in my local machine and update local SS DB/table - new records writes OK in the table. BUT when I changed my destination meaning write record into another physical SS DB/table there is no INSERT data occurs. AND SO when I move/copy over that same package into another server (e.g. server that do not write record earlier) and run it locally IT WORKS fine too.
What I am trying to do is very simple - Add new records in a SS table using SSIS . I only care for new rows and not even changed rows. Here is my logic - 1. Create Ole DB source to RemoteSERVER - using SELECT stmt 2. I have LoopUp component that will look for NEW records - Directs all rows that don't find match and redirect rows (error output). 3. Since I don't care for any rows that is matched in my lookup - I do nothing or I trash the rows 4. I send the error rows (NEW rows) into OleDB destination
RESULTS when I run the package locally and destination table is also local - WORKS FINE; But when I run the package locally and destination table is in another Sserver (remote) - now rows is written.
The package is run thru BIDS manually so there is no sucurity restrictions attached to it.
I am not sure what I am missing. And I do not see error in my package either. It is not failing.
Hopefully I am posting this question in the correct forum. I am still learning about SQL 2005. Here is my issue. I have an access db that I archive weekly into and SQL server table. I have used the dst wizard to create an import job and initally that worked fine. field I have as the primary key in the access db cannot be the primary key in the sql table since I archive weekly and that primary key field will be imported several time over. I overcame this initally by not having a primary key in the sql table. This table is strictly for reference. However, now I need to setup a unique field for each of the records in the sql table. What I have done so far is create a recordID field in the sql table that is an int and set as yes to Identify (auotnumber). That worked great and created unique id for all existing records. The problem now is on the import. When I try to import the access table i am getting an error because of the extra field in the sql table, and the error is saying cannot import null value into this field. So... my final question is how can I import the access table into the sql table with one extra field which is the autonumber unique field? Thanks a bunch for any asistance.

I imported a SQL Table into SQL DataBase, But I can not update this table even with SQL Server management Studio When I change any data on mentioned table above, Red exclamation sign appears left of the record . How can I correct this problem? Thanks.
Strange one here - I am posting this in both SQL Server and Access forums
Access is telling me it can't append any of the records due to a key violation.
The query:
INSERT INTO dbo_Colors ( NameColorID, Application, Red, Green, Blue ) SELECT Colors_Access.NameColorID, Colors_Access.Application, Colors_Access.Red, Colors_Access.Green, Colors_Access.Blue FROM Colors_Access;
Colors_Access is linked from another MDB and dbo_Colors is linked from SQL Server 2000.
There are no indexes or foreign contraints on the SQL table. I have no relationships on the dbo_ table in my MDB. The query works if I append to another Access table. The datatypes all match between the two tables though the dbo_ tables has two additional fields not refrenced in the query.
I can manually append the records using cut and paste with no problems.
What is the best way to transfer data from the staging table into the main table.
Example: Staging Table Name: TableA_satge (# of rows - millions) Main Table Name: TableA_main (# of rows - billions)
Note: Staging table may have some data same as the main table.
Currently I am doing: - Load data into staging table (TableA_stage) - Remove any duplication of rows from the staging table (TableA_stage) - Disable all indexes on main table (TableA_main) - Insert into main table (TableA_main) from staging table (TableA_stage) - Remove any duplication of rows from the main table using CTE (TableA_main) - Rebuild indexes on main_table (TableA_main)
The problem with the above method is that, it takes a lot of time and log file size grows very big.
I have table 'stores' that has 3 columns (storeid, article, doc), I have a second table 'allstores' that has 3 columns(storeid(always 'ALL'), article, doc). The stores table's storeid column will have a stores id, then will have multiple articles, and docs. The 'allstores' table will have 'all' in the store for every article and doc combination. This table is like the master lookup table for all possible article and doc combinations. The 'stores' table will have the actual article and doc per storeid.
What I am wanting to pull is all article, doc combinations that exist in the 'allstores' table, but do not exist in the 'stores' table, per storeid. So if the article/doc combination exists in the 'allstores' table and in the 'stores' table for storeid of 50 does not use that combination, but store 51 does, I want the output of storeid 50, and what combination does not exist for that storeid. I will try this example:
'allstores' 'Stores' storeid doc article storeid doc article ALL 0010 001 101 0010 001 ALL 0010 002 101 0010 002 ALL 0011 001 102 0011 002 ALL 0011 002
So I want the query to pull the one from 'allstores' that does not exist in 'stores' which in this case would the 3rd record "ALL 0011 001".
I started with an inline table returning function with a hard coded input table name. This works fine, but my boss wants me to generalize the function, to give it in input table parameter. That's where I'm running into problems.
In one forum, someone suggested that an input parameter for a table is possible in 2012, and the example I saw used "sysname" as the parameter type. It didn't like that. I tried "table" for the parameter type. It didn't like that.
The other suggestion was to use dynamic sql, which I assume means I can no longer use an inline function.
This means switching to the multi-line function, which I will if I have to, but those are more tedious.
Any syntax for using the inline function to accomplish this, or am I stuck with multi-line?
A simple example of what I'm trying to do is below:
Create FUNCTION [CSH388102].[fnTest] ( -- Add the parameters for the function here @Source_Tbl sysname ) RETURNS TABLE AS RETURN ( select @Source_Tbl.yr from @Source_Tbl )
Error I get is:
Msg 1087, Level 16, State 1, Procedure fnTest, Line 12 Must declare the table variable "@Source_Tbl".
If I use "table" as the parameter type, it gives me:
Msg 156, Level 15, State 1, Procedure fnTest, Line 4 Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'table'. Msg 137, Level 15, State 2, Procedure fnTest, Line 12 Must declare the scalar variable "@Source_Tbl".
I am trying to insert bulk data into main table from staging table in sql server 2012. If any error comes, this total activity is rollbacked. I don't want that to happen. I want to know the records where ever the problem persists, and the rest has to be inserted.
