Hi all,
I have the "Northwind" database in my Sql Server Management Studio Express.
In my C:ProSSEAppsSamplesForChapter02Chapter02 folder, I have the following 2 files:
(1) ListColumnValues (MS-DOS Batch File)
sqlcmd -S .sqlexpress -v DBName = "Northwind" CName = "CompanyName" TName =
"Shippers" -i c:prosseappschapter02ListListColumnVales.sql -o
c:prosseappschapter02ColumnValuesOut.rpt
(2) ListColumnValues (Microsoft SQL Server Query File)
USE $(Northwind)
GO
SELECT $(CompanyName) FROM $(Shippers)
GO
When I ran the following SQLcmd:
C:ProSSEAppsSamplesForChapter02Chapter02>ListColumnValues.bat
I got the following "ColumnValuesOut.rpt" with error messages:
'Northwind' scripting variable not defined.
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Server L1P2P3SQLEXPRESS, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near '$'.
'CompanyName' scripting variable not defined.
'Shippers' scripting variable not defined.
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Server L1P2P3SQLEXPRESS, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near 'CompanyName'.
I copied these T-SQL statements from a book and I do not know how to correct them.
Please help and tell me how to correct these errors.
Thanks in advance,
Scott Chang

Hello
I have a script ,which runs with osql
The script is :
osql -E
declare @cmd nvarchar(1000)
declare @cmd2 nvarchar(1000)
declare @state1 varchar(100)
declare @message varchar(100)
set @message = ''
-- Build command to determine state of SQLSERVERAGENT service on Master Server
SET @CMD = 'create table #state (state varchar(2000))' + char(10) +
'declare @cmdx varchar(1000)' + char(10) +
'insert into #state EXEC master..xp_servicecontrol ''''QueryState'''', ''''SQLSERVERAGENT''''' +
+ char(10) + 'select @state=state from #state' + char(10) +
'drop table #state'
-- Build command to execute command that determines state of service being monitored
set @cmd2 = 'declare @state varchar(100)' + char(10) +
'exec ' + rtrim(@@servername) + '.master.dbo.sp_executesql N''' + @CMD + ''',' +
'N''@state varchar(100) out'',' +
'@state out' + char(10) +
'set @state1 = @state'
-- Execute command and return state of service being monitored
exec master.dbo.sp_executesql @cmd2,N'@state1 varchar(100) out',@state1 out
-- Is the service that was monitored not
IF (UPPER(@state1) <> 'RUNNING.')
--if @state1 <1 'Running.'
begin
-- Display message that primary monitor is down
select @message = @message+char(13)+ @@servername + ' -' + 'Sql Server Agent Not Running'+char(13)
print 'Master server "' + rtrim(@@servername) + '" for monitoring is not available.'
exec master.dbo.xp_smtp_sendmail
It works fine when I run it on the command line prompt.
And I receive a mail , if the server agent is running.
But when I save it as bat file and try to run , it stops and doesnot even give an error.
Can anyone let me know what I can do.
Thanks

Hi,
I have to execute package in a Batch. I have done adding SSIS packages to SQL Server Agent and it is working. Now, my requirement is such that, when a user clicks "Transfer to batch" button in Windows application, i have to add all the packages to batch automatically without need for user to manually open SQL Server Agent and add packages. Is there any code available to do this?
Please help!
Thanks,

I am using the following batch file to execute a script that creates a db and all its objects in the local sql express:
sqlcmd -S (local)SQLExpress -i C:CreateDB.sql
This works fine, but I'm wondering if there's an easy way to put the script in the batch file, so users don't have to worry about putting the script in the C drive. I tried getting rid of the i parameter and pasting the script from the sql file into the batch file, but it didn't work.
Thanks,
Dave

Hello,
I have an "execute process" task which executes a perl script. When I run the task, it shows a prompt with the message "the publisher can not be verified". It gives the option to continue the task or to cancel.
The problem for me is that I want to schedule this package to run automatically, and I don't want the automated process to show this dialog. I need to override the security setting and have SSIS execute my batch scripts without prompting. Assuming I don't want to rewrite the Perl code into a script task, is there a way to do acomplish this?
Thanks!

Got this error running a query with ssms2014
on SqlServer2014
but db has Compatibiliy level 100 (sql2008)
no sql error code in message and no error found in eventviewr (sqlserver log, windows log, application log ecc)when i run that query i got this message in "messages" tab, and in results tab i got a strange result, indeed the value returned doesn't exists in table.
ex table1.field1 possible values= 2,3
it returns 1113344
we got that error thru jdbc too...that query use a lot of joins, unfortunatley i can't post it here. today got this error, so i make a copy of 1 of involved table into another db in the same instance, re run the query on the original db, and it works well.

The Sql Server database can only see the local drive.
I would like to set up a batch file that will copy a SQL Server
backup file from the local drive to the network drive. I would
like to append the file date to the end of the copied file. I
assume a batch file can accomplish this but I am new to batch
file writing. Does anyone have code that they already created
for this sort of task??
Thank you!

Can someone show me an example of the syntax required to execute multiple BCP commands within the same batch (*.bat) file?
Sorry if this is a bit of a basic question, but not being a programmer by profession, I need to plead ignorance. I've tried a few things, but I just can't seem to figure it out.
Thanks!

Hi,
I would like to ask someone who could help me with one small problem:
I would like to run SQL server task on one of my servers, that will connect
to all other servers (including ones that are not SQL servers, ie: Exchange,
Test Server etc) one at the time, and that will execute one batch file (update.bat) that is residing on each server under C: drive.
Batch file will copy some things from all of the servers to one server.
Thanks, in advance.

I'm trying schedule a batch file to run as a job from sql server agent. The batch file copies files from one server directory to a directory on another server. The batch file works properly when executed directly. The job is being executed under the sql service account login. I've given the service account access to both the source and destination directories.
When I try to run the job it fails with an "Access is denied" error on both the source and destination directories (as read from job history).
Any ideas?

HI There,
I just created batch file to restart analysis services and the job for executing this bat file.
<<Batch File >>
NET STOP "SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER)"
NET START "SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER)"
And I did the following step in sql agent:
Create the job > Select CmdExec Job > In commend section, I wrote CALL C:/RestartSSAS.bat
When I run this job, it seems everything went right but at the end, the job was filed.
However, I don't see any error on this step since the service was stopped and started successfully.
The below is the error message:
Executed as user: D20WKZC1SYSTEM. C:WINDOWSsystem32>NET STOP "SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER)" The SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER) service was stopped successfully. C:WINDOWSsystem32>NET START "SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER)"The SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER) service is starting. The SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER) service was started successfully. Process Exit Code 0. The step failed.
I've also tried to create the package using 'Execute Process Task ' and run it.
And it's successful but when I schedule it in sql agent then it failes.
Any thoughts?
Please advise me and thanks in advance.
