Can't Set @replicate_ddl Parameter To 1 For Publications Enabled For Non-SQL Server Subscribers
Oct 17, 2007
Hi,
I am trying to replicate some tables from an Sql Server database to an Oracle database. So the publisher is SQL Server and the Subscriber is Oracle.
Unfortunately I realised that I can't set the replicate_ddl parameter to 1 for an Oracle Subscriber. This is the error I got:
"The property "replicate_ddl" cannot be modified for publications that are enabled for non-SQL Server subscriptions."
I looked on the Internet and I found that this parameter "@replicate_ddl" (used in the add_publication stored procedure) can't be set to 1 if the @enabled_for_het_sub parameter is set to 'true'.
So I thought if I just set the replicate_ddl parameter to 1 and leave the other parameter to false and then use the sp_changepublisher stored procedure to set the enabled_for_het_sub parameter to true that will work. But it didn't. I tried this in Enterprise Manager and although I had no error I realised that the replicate_ddl parameter was reset to false.
Is there any way I can replicate the ddl statements in Oracle automatically or I should to them manually?
There are times when we need to make DDL changes and have them NOT replicate to the subscription database. The documented approach is to disable DDL replication using sp_changepublication (replicate_ddl = 0). See http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/ms147331.aspx
However, our DDL still replicates even when following those steps. I've even tried the very simple steps below to reproduce the error.
Set up transactional replication of one small test table. Replication is working fine. Set @replicate_ddl = 0 with sp_changepublication. I manually verify the setting (using the GUI) before continuing. Run a simple alter on the publication DB; change one column from varchar(25) to varchar(30). "ALTER TABLE <tablename> ALTER COLUMN <colname> VARCHAR(30) NULL". The DDL still replicates. The subscription table still has the column altered to the new definition.
I've even tried manually setting the option in the GUI and also stopping and restarting the synchronization after changing the setting; nothing works.
We are using SQL Server 2005 and just upgraded to SP2 a few days ago.
I have not found any other articles/postings on the topic so it appears we are the only ones having this problem. If anyone has any advice or input, it is greatly appreciated.
i have the SQL Server 2005 Express installed but i want to create publications so i´m going to install the Developer Edition.
Shoud i uninstall SQL Server Express before?
IN DE installation i have the following options: sql server database servicesanalysis servicesreporting servicesnotification servicesintegration servicesworkstations components, books online and development toolsWhat is the minimum i have to install to create publications?
I need to merge replicate data to two different types of subscribers:
Clients subscribers which will have a very small percentage of the data from the central database. The data on these machines will be managed using dynamic filtering on host_name() Server subscribers which will manage a copy of all the data from the central database There will be far fewer server subscribers than client subscribers.
As I see it I have two options for the configuration 1) Use two separate merge publications €“ one which is filtered and one which isn€™t 2) Use a single merge publication and setup the filtering so that the server subscribers receive all the rows
Which option is likely to lead to better performance?
With option 1) there would be 2 complete sets of replication metadata which need to be maintained €“ so I am tending towards option 2. Are there any disadvantages in using a dynamic filter to return a very large number of rows?
I am looking for bidirectional transactional replication using updatable subscribers (queued or immediate) . Is it possible to replicate the image data from the updatable subscribers to the publisher. I understood that the Image data can't be replicated to the publisher from the updatable subscriber. I am not using the WRITETEXT or UPDATETEXT. I am using just INSERT and UPDATE for image data type transactions.
I am unable to access the default port 1433 on my SQL 2003 server. There is no firewall. I run telnet <ip> <port> and get "Connection failed" which explains my inability to connect to the server for weeks. I have being unable to connect to the server after I uninstalled sql 2000 and reinstalled it on my 2003 server. Some of the things I have checked is Network Configuration in EM. Named Pipes and TCP/IP is installed with port set to 1433. HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftMSSQLServerClientSuperSocketNetLibTcpDefaultPort port is set to 1433. Is there anything I need to configure on the server side to have the default sql server port enabled.
Hello, I have to find out whether my servers have hyperthreading enabled or not???? I am running Windows server 2003 Standard edition on many of my machines. I have to configure the SQL Server, server configuration values according to the Hyperthreading. I know about the CPUcount.exe utility but is there anything else apart from it??????
I have a database with Broker_Enabled set via the following command:
ALTER DATABASE 'xxxx' SET ENABLE_BROKER
All works well, I made a backup and want to move to my development machine. When I run I still get an error saying I need to enable broker service again.
"The SQL Server Service Broker for the current database is not enabled, and as a result query notifications are not supported. Please enable the Service Broker for this database if you wish to use notifications."
How can I move the database and get this setup? Where are the BrokerID's Stored?
UAT environment : SQL Server 2008 R2 SP3 Enterprise Edition
SANDBOX environment : SQL Server 2008 R2 SP3 Standard Edition
I have a database backup (.bak) that was taken from UAT environment that has CDC enabled on some tables. I want to restore that database into my SANDBOX environment which does not support CDC (because of standard edition). The restore process fails due to this incompatibility. Is there any way to restore without CDC (I dont CDC enabled on my SANDBOX; just my data from the backup) ?
I have 2 databases on a remote server on which Replication and Replication Monitor is enabled. Now I want to move this databases from different remove location.
How do I transfer bboth databases with replication and replication monitor enabled on it with all the user logins.
I have installed both sql server 2000 and sql server 2005 Developer Edition in my system as well as .net 2003 and 2005. Now i want to enable clr integration in sql server 2005. so when i write
sp_configure 'clr enabled', 1 GO RECONFIGURE GO
In Sql Statement then it gives me error Msg 15123, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_configure, Line 78 The configuration option 'clr enabled' does not exist, or it may be an advanced option.
Valid configuration options are:
I have created a database user which have all the rights and roles. and while i check the stored system procedure sp_configure it is affacting mainly two system tables in the master tables
master.dbo.spt_values master.dbo.sysconfigures and this table does not contains field like ''clr enabled'' so tht we can change the state
so plz plz help me to enable clr in the sql server 2005. I need it so muchhh...
I have a DB with TDE enabled on Enterprise edition sql server 2008r2. I am actually planning on moving the DB to sql server 2008r2 standard edition. How to accomplish it properly. I don't think SQL Server 2008r2 standard edition support TDE. I can only think of turning off the encryption, but is there anything else I should know?
Sql server 2008R2 (SP2) Ent, PROD DB myDB was encrypted. During Release mistakenly (Vendor created script blames some settings in ...- actually does not matter) Decryption started (ALTER .. SET ENCRYPTION OFF) as we got from ErrorLog.
For some reason initial encryption scan was aborted and then mentioned command: ALTER ... OFF was issued again. What we have now (after 60 h of decryption- encryption took only 2.5 h)- is_encrypted = 0 in sys.databases, encryption_state = 5 (decryption in progress) in sys.dm_database_encryption_keys (percent_complete= 0). But it seems myDB is still encrypted- I made a backup of myDB and tried to read it (restore filelistonly) from other server (with no encryption)- failed- asked for key. Seems metadata was changed when initial scan during decryption started but then stuck and (if I am correct) decryption was never completed. Question- any similar experience? How we can fix meta- data, i.e. assuming that myDB is still encrypted we should have is_encrypted = 1 and encryption_state = 3 (encrypted).
My index reorganise maintenance plan fails partly due to the disabled indexes
Executing the query "ALTER INDEX [I_ModelSecurityCommon_RECID] ON [dbo]...
" failed with the following error: "Cannot perform the specified operation on disabled index 'I_ModelSecurityCommon_RECID' on table 'dbo. Model SecurityCommon'.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
I don't want to delete the indexes as they are standard indexes that where on the DB from install.. any script that will reorganise all enabled indexes? and also to rebuild?
Using SQL Server 2005 SP2 std edition on Windows 2003 R2 SP2 x64 std edition I'm allowed to break the password policy.
To reproduce this behaviour as a system administrator run...
create login testuser with password='p'
This creates a login with the default of POLICY enabled ('Enforce Password Policy' check box is checked). OK, so may be system administrator is allowed to break the policy but now login as testuser and run
alter login testuser with password='t' old_password='p'
This succeeds despite obviously breaking the policy.
Surely this can't be right, I must be doing something wrong.
I am new to DBA activities. I have a database name Sample_DB in SQL Server 2014. Â
This database has below files
LogicalName FileType FileGroup Sample_DB_Rows  ROWS Data PRIMARY Sample_DB_C1 ROWS Data Country1 Sample_DB_C2 ROWS Data Country2 Sample_DB_Docs FILESTREAM Data FileGroupForDoc
My database has 3 tables namely Tbl1, Tbl2 and Tbl3.
Tbl1 data stored in primary file group Tbl2 is partitioned based on a key column CountryId and stored in respective filegroup Tbl3 is enabled to store documents, files etc., and its data will be stored in filestream enabled filegroup.
Problem: I need to take backup of each file group separately. I need to restore the backed up file group separately. Is this possible, how to do it.
When I try to create a subscription to my SQL Server Compact 3.5-database file, it gives an SqlCeException-message that says that the file is not enabled for replication. How do enable it?
My SQL Server Management Studio won´t connect to my compact server file right now, so that method is not an option for me right now.
This is the code I have been using to connect to my default instance for 18 months. A recent upgrade to Windows Live onecare now prevents me connecting to the server from the same machine. The following error message is generated:-

If I turn off the onecare firewall I can connect as normal, but this is not a desired option. I have tried enabling port 1433 on the firewall, this does not work either. Any help greatly appreciated, onecare support seems reluctant to help.
I'm trying to set up replication between two servers that both used to have SQL Server 6.5 on them. I was previously getting a 'The ID '114' was not found in the tasks collection' message and so decided to be on the safe side and remove and re-install SQL Server on both machines. Having successfully re-installed SQL Server 6.5 on both machines I then thought I'd try and set-up replication again. BUT as soon as try to install the publishing side of it the only option I have is to uninstall publishing ???? SQL Server on both machines appeared to uninstall and install nicely so how come it's still asking if I want to uninstall publishing ????
For Each replicationDatabase In replicationDatabases If replicationDatabase.HasPublications Then replicationDatabase.LoadProperties() Console.WriteLine(replicationDatabase.Script(ScriptOptions.Creation)) End If
During a newly set up on one of our SQL server 2012:
We had enable the trace flags 1117 and 1118 as a good practice using DBCC TRACEON(1117,-1) and similar for 1118.
We have been base lining the server and it came to notice that trace flags are no more enabled.
Property               Value                              CaptureDate DBCC_TRACESTATUS TF 1117: Status = 1, Global = 1, Session = 0    2015-10-20 00:00:00 DBCC_TRACESTATUS     TF 1118: Status = 1, Global = 1, Session = 0      2015-10-20 00:00:00
After reboot: Property                 Value                                  CaptureDate DBCC_TRACESTATUS      No trace flags enabled             2015-10-21 00:00:02.340
What can be the reason? What can be done to turn them on permanently, if its actually a good bet in enabling so.
I have a database with two publications. One publication is used to replicate data among 4 SQL Servers, while the other is used for the replication with SQL Server CE clients. The problem here is that the SQLCE receive a number of changes that it is not correct. Before establishing the publication for SQL Servers the SQL CE clients were working great, but now i have this problem.
Is there any patch or fix I should install on the server?, or do you know how can I solve this?
We are using transactional replication with updatable subscriptions in SQL Server 2005. In our case both the publisher and the distributor is the same server. The subscription type is the Pull Subscription. It is set to run in the continuous running mode.
Can we have more than one publication in the same Distributor?
This link has a recommendation of the following under the heading "Queued Updating Subscriptions"
"There is only one Queue Reader Agent for each Distributor. It is recommended that for each Distributor, you configure at most one publication that is enabled for queued updating subscriptions."
In our case we need to have 6 publications with 4 subscriptions each (totally 24 Subscriptions).
An exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch. (Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo)
------------------------------
An article with a different subscriber_upload_options value already exists for object '[dbo].[Users]'. Changed database context to 'TestDB'. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 20053)
How can i create the second publication? Is it possible? If yes, please give me the steps.
I have installed SQL server 2005 Express and SQL server Mobile, and I was reading the Books online section to find out how to maintain the two databases consistancy.
Found : replication Option.
Problem : It only shows Local Subscriptions in SQL Server and In SQL Server Mobile only Subscription. I dont get a Publication Option.
Please correct if Wrong : SQL Serv Mobile is the one should Publish and SQL Serv hould Subscribe ya?
The setup is 3 sql 2000 servers, one with a number of publications, and two with transactional pull subscriptions.
The publications were accidentally deleted from the primary server when replication was removed from an older server that unfortunately had been cnamed to the primary server.
The subscriber servers now error "the subscription does not exist".
I had thought restoring the master and msdb on the publisher would bring the publications back but this has not happened. There are good backups of all the system and user databases on the publisher available, but not the scripts that created the publications for replication. Can anyone suggest how or what to restore to get the publications back on the primary server so we can restart replication?
Thank You!
[edit] It also may be worth noting that the publisher is it's own distributor in this scenario.
I have two publications on a SQL Server 2000 database. I am able to create two subscriptions from another SQL Server 2000 database and synchronize both in succession.
However when I try to repeat this going from SQL Server 2000 to SQLCE 2.0 it fails. The first goes OK. The second fails. I get error 80004005, 28521 (The SQL Server CE database is already enabled for publication. Is it possible to do what I am trying to do on CE?
The reason I have 2 publications is because the first is non-filtered and goes very fast via bcp files when reinitialized. The second is dynamically filtered and not as fast. Breaking them up makes reinits go much faster.
I have a sql 2005 publisher and distributor and a sql 2000 subscribers. for some reason on one of the subscribers i'm getting errors that it can't replicate the UDT's. i tried a new snapshot and made sure it was set not to replicate UDT's but i'm still getting Create Type errors.
would anyone have any idea why it's trying to create UDT's at the subscriber when i specify not to replicate UDT's?
