Why @@servername Is Not Showing The Servername?
Feb 27, 2008
Hi
I have explicitly used
Exec SP_dropserver and
Exec SP_Addsserver SP's to drop and add a SQL server.
After that i restarted the sql server service. After that, when i used the query
select @@servername, it is returning NULL.
But, when I used Select Serverproprty('servername'), it is returning me the correct servername.
Can i know as why this behavior is exhibited for the same property of finding servername?
Thanks!

Get The Old SQL Servername
Oct 11, 2007I recall a method to get the old servername of a SQL server but old age has gotten to me.
I suspect a particular server has been renamed at one point. Obviously it wasn't me and the person before me is not around for me to ask.
So, can someone help an old guy out?
The results of print @@servername is NULL.
Thanks
Servername Weirdness
Mar 30, 2001Hey folks,
Today's been way too much fun...
Someone changed the name of a machine in our department and now Win2k thinks the machine's name is (for example) "Fred", but if I do a select @@servername, SQL returns (again, for example) "Barney".
The machine's name started out as "Barney".
The last time this happened, it was on an NT4 box, and we just reinstalled sql and away we went.
This time, they reinstalled sql and released the box to the team, only to find out later that reinstalling sql didn't do squat this time.
Which brings me to the question: How do I convince SQL that it's really, truly supposed to be named "Fred"?
Besides that, what do I tell Wilma, Betty, Pebbles and Bamm Bamm?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated.
: )
Thanks,
Tom

@@SERVERNAME Is NULL
Sep 27, 1999Hello sir,
I have a probleme with a replication.
I have two servers (serv1 and serv2); when i want to install a replication from serv1 to serv2, i receive this message:
1->2:Replication cannot be installed as @@SERVERNAME is NULL.
from serv2 to serv1; I receive this message:
2->1:If Replication is uninstalled, all publications will be
eliminated and the distribution database[if it exist]will be
dropped. After the process has completed, this session will be
disconnected from the SQL Server. Do you want to unistall
replication?
Please advice me..
@@servername Is NULL
Oct 19, 1998On one of my SQL Servers I have noticed the @@servername to be NULL.
Any Idea how to give it back the original value. Simple
>> SELECT @@servername = `MY_SERVER_NAME` will not work since I can not update the global variable
This prevents from instaling publishing on that server, among other concerns for the overall stability of the server.
Help appreciated,

Dynamically Change The Servername
May 10, 2006Hi all,
I've created 1 solution and added all my packages in different projects (like DIMENSIONS, SOURCES_SAP, ...).
For each project I have a Data Source that connects to the server. The problem is that when I want to deploy a package to the server that I always need to change the Data Source before deployment.
Before SQL Server 2005 we used a connection file (which was located as well on the server as on the development pc's in the same locations) within our DTS packages. This way we didn't had to change the connections when deploying to the server.
My intention was to use the current configuration from the configuration manager(development / production) to select the servername. Unfortunately, I didn't succeed to retrieve it's value from a variable script.
I need to have a solution that dynamically changes the datasources for multiple packages depending on a specific action.
How can I achieve this the easiest way ?
Thanks in advance !

@@servername Returns NULL Value
Mar 9, 2006I have a SQL 2005 clustered server which is returning a Null value for @@servername. I find the server entry in sysservers. I have replication configured on this so i am not able to do a Sp_dropserver & sp_addserver as this acts as a publisher. The configured merge repication stopped working because of this issue and I am not able to delete replication as the the delete option uses @@servername which returns a null value. So I am struck in a loop.
Any advice is appreciated.
thanks

How Do U Fix @@servername = NULL Without Restart SQL Server ?
Apr 27, 2004@@servername sometimes returns NULL depending on how you have been messing around with replication and various other settings.
The simple solution offered to fix this is to delete the entries in the system tables and sp_addserver 'servername','local' and then restart the SQL service.
This is fine but what do you do in the situation where the SQL server is a 24/7 production box ? Does anyone know of a method / hack to fix this without stopping the service ?
Thanks

Error: Unable To Connect To Server 'servername'
Apr 29, 2008Hi,
I am trying to connect to SQL Server through Query Analyzer but getting following error: (SQL Server is at remote web server where i have my website hosted.)
Unable to connect to server [server IP]:
Server: Msg 6, Level 16, State 1
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][dbnetlib] Specified SQL server not found.
I have searched this forum for this error and performed following workaround as suggested in some threads-
1. checked and set "TcpPort" registry setting.
2. TCP/IP is enabled in Network Utility.
3. "start SQL server if it is stoped" checkbox is unchecked while connecting.
But, I am still getting the above error. Should i re-installed SQL Server 2000? Any help?
Thanks,

Where can I find information on creating an ASPNET Login after experiencing the above problems?
Unable To Start T-SQL Debugging. Could Not Connect To Computer 'servername'.
Nov 9, 2007
I thought I would post how I got remote t-sql debugging working in my environment. Hope it might help someone.
I have two domains, DomainA and DomainB. DomainB has a one way external trust to DomainA. Dev Vista machine running VS 2005 is in DomainA logged in as user DomainAauser. SQL 2005 running on test Windows Server 2003 DC machine in DomainB under user DomainBuser. When trying to 'step into stored procedure' in VS, whether my data connection used windows authentication or sql server authentication, I would get the 'Unable to start T-SQL degbuggin...'. I could debug t-sql when I logged into the domain controller (console or rdp) and running VS on the server. I changed the SQL Server service to run under the DomainAauser account and I can now remote t-sql debug using both window authentication and sql server authentication. Hope this may help anyone that might run into this.

Proper Procedure To Change Servername Of Replicated Environemnts?
Jul 22, 2005Hi There
View 4 Replies View RelatedHow To Change Configured Value For The ServerName Property Of A Connection Via DTEXEC
Feb 1, 2007I am launching a package the following way:
DTEXEC.EXE /SQL "ProcessReportingDatabase" /SERVER RTG23SQLDB01 /REPORTING V /SET "Package.Variables[User::RunID].Value";35 /SET "Package.Connections[RSAnalytics].Properties[InitialCatalog]";"Fnd Prj 1 Dec29" /SET "Package.Connections[RSAnalytics].Properties[ServerName]";"RTG23SQLDB01UAT1PROD"
The problem does not happen with the [User::RunID] variable or the [Initial Catalog] property of my [RSAnalytics] connection object. But I am not successful in setting the [ServerName] property.
What happens when executed is that the package retains the ServerName property of the deployed package (Value="RTG23SQLDB01UAT1QA"), instead of what I pass in via DTEXEC???
Is ServerName read-only or something? I've tried configuring the package connection to RTG23SQLDB01UAT1PROD and creating a package configuration that I specify in place of the /SET - but to no avail as well!
This package has to work against 10 instances. I really don't want to have to create a separate package for each instance, and then a hack to figure out which one to call.

SSIS - How To Set ServerName And DatabaseName At Run Time Inside FOREACH LOOP?
Jan 14, 2006I am new to SSIS world, so my question is very basic.
Setup:
In a company I work for we have 12 SQL servers each running between 1 and 3 databases with anywhere between 10 to 20 tables. I need to query some of these tables and merge results to the destination database.
The list of all these tables is stored in the separate table <SOURCES> of the following format [ServerName,DatabaseName,TableName]. Tables of my interest have identical structure (same columns) accross servers and databases.
Question:
How can I loop over servers and databases specified in <SOURCES> to run otherwise identical query against these tables?
I can easily retrieve [ServerName,DatabaseName,TableName] from <SOURCES> as string variables using FOREACH loop. The problem is now - how do I use string variables to set up Server, Database and Table name at run-time?
Thank you
Emailed Subscription Not Including Port Number In Servername URL Link For Report
Aug 14, 2007I hope someone can help as I have searched for a solution but been unable to find one as yet.
My problem is that after installing SharePoint V3.0 and amending the Report Server to <ServerName>:8080, as I don't yet wish to use integrated mode, everything works fine except email delivered subscriptions. The URL in the email body referencing the report only puts in <ServerName> etc. omitting the port number :8080. I have tried to find where this URL link is built-up from but have had no luck in the report manager, report services configuration and the config files, does anyone know where I need to look and if possible what I need to amend to have the link include :8080 after the servername portion of the URL. I can copy the URL and manually insert the port address and it works but this defeats the object of automated subscriptions.
Sorry if this is a dumb question but it is giving me a headache at the moment.
All answers gratefully received,

Cannot Create An Instance Of OLE DB Provider SQLNCLI For Linked Server SERVERNAME, Error: 7302
Mar 2, 2008
I just installed a SQL Server 2005 Express SP2 instance on a server with an existing SQL Server 2000 SP3 installation. (I need SQL Server 2005's INSERT from an EXEC capability). It's working great now except for one thing: I can't link any other SQL servers! I've already successfully added and queried a linked Oracle server, but attempting to add a linked SQL server gives me the following error, no matter which SQL provider I try to use:
Code Snippet
"The linked server has been created but failed a connection test. Do you want to keep the linked server?"
Additional information:
--> An exception occured while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch (Microsoft.SqlServer.Express.ConnectionInfo)
--> Cannot create an instance of OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "SERVERNAME". (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 7302)
The technical details reveal the error source as "sp_testlinkedserver".
I've scoured the net and premier support for advice on this problem, but the little I found wasn't helpful. I've tried reinstalling the SQL Native Client, but it didn't help. I've tried uninstalling SQL Server 2005 Express completely (including management studio and native client), rebooting, and reinstalling everything, with no luck. The server (obviously) does not have a firewall enabled. I've tried stopping the SQL 2000 Server installed on the system, no help. If I create a test .UDL file on the system, pointing to any of the SQL servers I'm trying to link, clicking the "Test Connection" button returns successful. I'm also able to connect to and query the servers directly from the SQL 2005 Express Management Studio. I just can't add them as linked servers.
The server is running Windows 2003 SP1, SQL Server 2000 SP3, and SQL Server 2005 Express SP2 (the default "SQLExpress" named instance). I've tried setting up SQL 2005 Express to run under the network service account and under a domain account used by the other SQL 2000 servers.
From other SQL 2000 servers, I can connect and link to the SQL Server 2005 Express instance successfully. I can also successfully add linked SQL servers in SQL Server 2000 instance installed on the same server. Only adding linked SQL servers in 2005 Express seems to be broken.
Anyone have any other suggestions? I'm totally baffled. Thank you so much for any helpful advice.
