Detect Anomalies Like Exceptional Swings Accross Aggregations?
Nov 9, 2007Hello,
Not sure if data minimg can help me solving this type of inquiries. Thanks in advance for any pointers you could provide me.
Problem:
We have many dimensions with many levels. Sales directors will sometimes note a drop or a spike when looking at one of the dimensions members, most of the time at a high level.
Example, For Q4 07, the aggregation of Q4 Billing plus remaining Q4 Backlog dropped by $10M in America for the Automotive business from week 4 to week 5 while it was forecasted to remain stable.
The immediate question that will be sent to the guys in charge of this business is "What happened?".
Obviously evyone struggle to answer these questions eveytine there is a drop anywhere.
Using classic tools, they will try to spot a single anomaly or determine if this is accross the board and what are the concurent factors like lower than expected shipments combined with some orders cancellations.
The drop-off can lie in a single product or customer location, in which case it is fairly easy while time consuming to spot the anomaly using classic drill-down approach.
The drop-off can also be more wide spread or caused by a combination of factors like unable to ship in time, orders cancellations and sales credits in which case it is more difficult to spot where is the anomaly and explain it.
So I wonder if there is any way that I could use data mining to make the entire process of detecting anomalies accross dimensions levels, members and measures more straight-forward for end-users.
What do you think?
Thanks,
Philippe
Detect Installed Version?
May 8, 2006Today I installed SQL Server 2005 developer edition on a test server. Afterwards I also installed the SP1. During the installation of SP1, the installation program said the server should be restarted afterwards, which I did.
Now when I look at the Add/Remove Programs dialog I have several items which mention SP1 on the SQL Server items.
But when I request the server properties in Managemnt Studio I see the version number 9.0.2047. Shouldn't this be 9.1.XXXX?
How can I be sure the SP1 is correcty insatlled?

Reports Exported As Excel Cannot Be Read By Mac Version Of Excel
Jan 31, 2007I searched the list but did not see anything related.
I cannot open a file directly exported from RS in the Excel format. If I open the file in the Windows version and then close it, no need to even save it, I can then open it with the Mac version of Excel. The file size after closing is about 2K less so the RS program is adding something onto the file that the Mac version does not like. It will crash Excel when trying to open.
I cannot export the report as CSV as it will not correctly import into Excel on the Mac.
Is there a work around for this?
Thanks.

SSIS Excel Export With 64-bit Version
Feb 12, 2007I have a problem, and I'm fairly sure I know what the answer is going to be, but I'll ask it anyhow.
I have a database which I switched over to SQL 2005 last year, and in the process converted all the DTS packages I had to import the data over to SSIS. We have several reports that we generate to Excel files, and I attempted to migrate these over also, but they would never run in production. Worked fine in when I developed the packages, but nothing I did would make them run in production, so I droped back and punted by modifying the DTS packages to point to the new database. Everything works fine that way, but we want to retire the old SQL box.
When I started digging into the problem by running the package from the dev platform on the production box, I got the following error info:
Error: 0xC0202009 at TSC_Outbound_Calls, Connection manager "Excel Connection Manager": An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040154.
An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft OLE DB Service Components" Hresult: 0x80040154 Description: "Class not registered".
Error: 0xC00291EC at Create Excel Table, Execute SQL Task: Failed to acquire connection "Excel Connection Manager". Connection may not be configured correctly or you may not have the right permissions on this connection.
Task failed: Create Excel Table
What I have seen about this error is that it cannot find a 64-bit Excel driver, which (I believe) does not exists. So, as the server is already built with Server 2003 64-bit and SQL 2005 64-bit, does anyone have a suggestion to help me get these exports working again, or am I as stuck as I think I am?

What Sql Server Version To Buy? Difference In Performance Between The Workgroup And Standard Version
Feb 19, 2008Hello,I have been searching and reading a lots of information on the microsoft website about the different version of SQL server, but still can not make my decision.In term of performance, is there a real big difference between the workgroup and the standard version? The workgroup is limited to 3 GB of RAM while the standard is unlimited, would that really change the performance if my server has 16Gb or RAM?The price difference is pretty substantial so if could only have to buy the workgroup , it would be better.One more question, regarding the type of licence, my server has 2 processors, could I avoid buying 2 licences and get the Server plus CAL instead. I am using this server to host 4 web-application running on SQL server. Each database is about 15 MB.Thanks in adavance for your advises.Arno

Oct 30, 2007I am wondering if it is possible to change from SQL Server Enterprise Evaluation Version to Developer Version.

Ssis Error Converting Database From Version 539 To The Current Version 611

Integration Services :: Package Migration From Version 8 To Version 6 Failed
Sep 22, 2015I have received the error message "Package migration from version 8 to version 6 failed".I have developed a SSIS package with Visual Studio 2013 which gives me PackageFormatVersion of 8. I then deploy my package to the ssisdb catalog that is running on a SQL Server 2012, this works fine but when I try to execute the package the error arises…due to SQL Server 2012 has a PackageFormatVersion of 6 and it can’t run something that has a greater version.I haven’t seen any good solution for this but one that would work for me would be to upgrade the Integration Services Server from 2012 to 2014, leaving everything else in 2012 (database, ssms, ssas, ssrs).Would this solve the package format problem? Would I then be able to execute my packages in the ssisdb catalog?
View 3 Replies View RelatedAfter Restoring MASTER Database, Can't Start SQLServer Service: Configuration Block Version 0 Is Not A Valid Version Number
Jul 16, 2007Now, I checked and verified that my backup version of SQL Server is the same as the version installed on the computer I'm restoring too.
I have SQL Server on a production machine that I backed up and want to test a full restore on a dev machine to make sure it will work when I need it to.
Now that I've run the restore command on my tape backup and go to restart the SQL server service I receive:
Configuration block version 0 is not a valid version number. SQL Server is exiting. Restore the master database or reinstall.
I'm afraid I don't understand why this is happening. If the builds are the same, then shouldn't restoring the MASTER database have worked normally and I'd be able to restart the service now?
Any thoughts or suggestions?

View 4 Replies View RelatedThe Version Of Component **** (11773) Is Not Compatible With This Version Of The DataFlow.
Dec 12, 2007
I started this thread as the last attempt to sort the issue out.
I have an SSIS package that loads data from a .csv file into my database. It works fine on my developer machine. I start it programmatically or from Management Studio or from Visual Studio, and it works. Then I deploy it to the MSDB database on the computer on which it will have its final place. There again I can start it from Management Studio or from Visual Studio (using the source file), and it works. But when I start it programmatically, it just fails telling me:
Package Warnings:

Component "component "Derived Column" (13627)" could not be created and returned error code 0x80070005. Make sure that the component is registered correctly.
The component is missing, not registered, not upgradeable, or missing required interfaces. The contact information for this component is "Flat File Source;Microsoft Corporation;Microsoft SqlServer v9; (C) 2005 Microsoft Corporation; All Rights Reserved; http://www.microsoft.com/sql/support;1".
component "Agreement File" (11773) failed validation and returned error code 0xC0048021.
One or more component failed validation.
There were errors during task validation.
Maybe the source of the problem is that this machine is a 64-bit one, while the developer machine is 32-bit one. But why does the package run fine when I start it from Management Studio?
Any help would be appreciated.

Upgrade From SQL Server Standard Version To Enterprise Version
Nov 8, 2007Can some one here give me more insight about how to upgrade a SQL Server 2005 Standard Version (32 bits) to a SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Version (32 bits) as default instance on a Windows 2003 enterprise OS (32 bits). I want to know what is the easist way and what is the safest way. May I preserve some settings I have for the STD version, or I have to start from strach again to configure the server? Is there any catches, anything I should have attention to (We are using heavily about CLR and fulltext indexing)?
Thanks a milliom

Nov 12, 2007The version of the report server database is either in a format that is not valid, or it cannot be read. The found version is 'C.0.8.54'. the expected version is 'C.0.8.40'. To continue, update the version of the report server database and verify access rights. I'm getting this whenever try to access the report server via SSMS, I have tried to upgrade via the Reporting Service Configuration Manager but get an error message similar to above except it says: The database version (C.o.8.54) does not match your Reporting Services installation. This version of the database cannot be upgraded. You must use a different database. Has anyone seen this before? I can create a new database, but don't want to loose all my reports. Any ideas. Oh, not even sure if the backups exist from before this error, I've spent 2 weeks trying to get access to the server so I could try to upgrade, only to get the above results. Thanks for your help, David
