Can I Somehow Subscribe To SQL Upgrade Notifications??
Feb 20, 2007
Well, it's happened again. An upgrade to SQL server was released without my having any idea about it. SP2 came out today and the only way I knew it was I happened to see a headline on Yahoo. Similar things have happened in the past with HotFixes or security rollups. Sometimes it's rather embarrassing, especially when your boss challenges you on the most recent security updates for SQL. Is there any way which we can be notified of new upgrades/updates to SQL Server? I need to know when there is a new hotfix, update, service pack, or whatever so that I can install it as needed. So far, the only way I've found these was by accident. I'm signed up with the Microsoft Download Notification email list, so I was able to see that SP2 CTPs were released, but I've never seen it include hotfixes or rollups.
If something like a SQL update notification service doesn't exist, then I would ask that Microsoft look at putting one together. Thank you!

I have a lengthy report and a summary viewof this report. I'dlike for the summary view to be sent out in a subscription as the message body and have the detailed report be sent out as a PDF attachment. I know you can't do this in the default subscription UI, but I was wondering if there was a programmatic way to make this happen?
Thanks,

Does anyone have any idea how I would go about creating an object that can be informed of any modifications to a SQL data base. i.e. a .NET object that can detect whenever a table is updated.
It is NOT possible to modify the database in anway, so I can't add triggers etc.

Some packages I develop have a lot of steps, and some people like myself can go crazy with email notifications, depending on the graph, I sometimes add notifications (success/fail) at the component level, so I can know what happened to that SSIS package from my blackberry and immediately log into the VPN and fix the issue.
The only problem that I have with that is that sometimes, like right now, I see myself adding 6 "send mail tasks" to SSIS packages, one pass/fail for each component.
Basically, I was wondering if anyone had any ideas or suggestions, ideally I wish I could create one single send mail task that could be reused by other components on the package and just update the message/subject through expression and variables.

Hello,
We are building a simple distributed application around the service broker where each queue is serviced from a windows service. We have a windows service running constantly as a "listener" on an event queue for each of what we call "request" queues. When a message is received by the request, the listener service instantiates a reader to process the request.
As we are in development, things get out of sync at times and the event queues sometimes stop getting the event notification message. I can correct this usually emptying the queues by receiving all messages from the "request" and "event" queues but sometimes it becomes necessary to drop and recreate the broker objects. Can someone tell me what are the fail points event_notification and what corrective actions are needed at these points?
For instance, if I see that a queue has a state of "Notified" in dm_broker_queue_monitors, I just do a receive to drain the appropriate queue. I have been unable to determine what state the service broker is in when I have to delete and recreate the event notification so I don't know what is causing it and how to programmatically determine when it is necessary to take this action. We would of course prefer not to get to this state but since it can happen during development, I would guess this can happen in production so I need to develop the recovery logic to detect and correct for this condition.

Hi
I would like to know how I can get hold the text for a service and event notifications.
What I need is the ability to get hold of a list of the events I'm currently monitoring.
i.e.
Server or database level
I though I would be able to get hold of this in sys.server_event_notifications but it doesn't seem to have any data although my server level event notifcation service is running.
Any help?
TIA

All,
I have Mirroring up and running successfully on two databases. The platform consists of Windows Server 2003 Enterprise Edition X64 (Build 3790: Service Pack 1) and SQL Server Enterprise Edition X64 (Build 9.00.3200.00). I set up alerting for unsent logs per the Alerting Mirror Events article:
http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/sql/2005/mirroringevents.mspx. The alerts show up in the sql server logs as intended and work fine up to that point; however I have the alert set to notify an operator that emails and pages and that functionality does not work. The operator is used for other alerts and works fine i.e. the email address and pager address is correct. The pager on duty schedule is correctly set up as well. I was wondering if anyone has come across this problem after setting up Mirroring. It appears to be an isolated issue related only to Mirroring.
Thanks in advance.

I am finding conflicting information about enabling query notifications for SQL Express. One book says it can be done and shows an example but most places on MSDN claim it requires the Service Broker. I am using Management Studio for SQL Express which does not show the Service Broker while an installation with SQL Server 2005 Dev Edition does show the Service Broker.This is all very confusing. I want to be able to develop locally with SQL Express with Query Notifications and later deploy to a server which is more capable. Previously I have read that only real difference between SQL Server 2005 and SQL Express is a 2gb memory limit.How would I go about setting up Query Notifications for SQL Express? Where would I find such documentation on MSDN?

Hello all,
Here's the problem I'm trying to solve:
I have several alerts set up and a job setup to notify via email if alerts occur. There are times when I might be doing maintenace on a box that may generate alerts but I don't want to get emailed or paged for these "dummy" alerts. I thought first of setting the enabled column of sysalerts to 0 - that doesn't work. I still get notified. Then I thought I'd set the enabled column in sysjobs for my notification job to 0 while I'm doing the work. But as soon as I re-enable the job I get an alert. It seems that as soon as the job is re-enabled it checks the NT application log and sees that an alert was fired and somehow knows that there was no notification sent so sends one. If I purge the NT application log before re-enabling the job is solves the problem. But that is a very in-ellegant solution and I don't want to loose all the info stored in the event log any way. Does anyone know how SQL SErver aggent keeps track of this stuff? (ie. that an alert was fired but it's response job is disabled and to check once a job is re-enabled to see if any alerts occured while it was disabled?) I did a Profiler trace while re-enabling the job but didn't see anything pertinant in there.
Thanks in advance.

I am using SMTP to send out an email notification to inform me whether my backups were successful or not. The problem I have is that xp_sqlmaint does not set a return code. Without a return code to test, I do not know whether to send a success or unsuccessful message. Does any one have an idea on how to accomplish this?

I am trying to set up event notifications via email (MS Exchange). Following the instructions here...
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms190724.aspx
I have an outlook profile created on my sql server for the same domain account which starts up SQLSERVERAGENT. I can send/recieve emails in this account, and running xp_sendmail in Query Analyzer works as expected.
However, when trying to set up an "operator" and testing the email ability, I get the error...
Error 22022: SQLServerAgent Error: The SQLServerAgent mail session is not running; check the mail profile and/or the SQLServerAgent service startup account in the SQLServerAgent Properties dialog.
I am running Outlook 2003 using Exchange. I seem to be having the same problem as this person.
http://www.experts-exchange.com/Databases/Microsoft_SQL_Server/Q_21627245.html
However, it makes reference to MSExchangeIS which I cannot find on my SQL Server. I would assume this to be a service of Exchange which would be on a seperate server entirely. If this is just some type of "connector" service that can be installed on any server, then how would I go about installing it? I presume that I need this service to get these mail notifications working, no?
This must be a very common situation since everyone needs to know when their jobs are working or not. Any help is greatly appreciated.

When I first saw SqlCacheDependancy and Query Notifications I was really stoked. I began using these features in ASP.NET and some of this caching really sped up my site. However, I noticed some of my queries and results were not cached. This led me on a looonnnnggggg search of the internet for anything related to these topics.
Anyway, the problem is that the queries are very limited (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms181122.aspx) in what they can contain, no count(*), no top, no order by, etc etc. I understand that the reason for this may be that the Query Notifications is using some of the Indexed Views infrastructure and therefore has the same limitations. That's fine and all but caching the results of these types of queries is still very useful for a front page of a site where you want the top ten users by number of postings etc and if you use the TOP N clause to limit it to the top 10 then you lose the built in caching functionality because this query doesn't work with Query Notifications and the cache expires immediately.
Is there a way to just get notifications when the tables involved in a query changes? I don't need the granular level of the rowsets involved I just want to be notified if my table has changed so I can refresh my cached objects.
I know there is an overload for the constructor of the SqlCacheDependency class which takes the database and table names as parameters. MSDN states that this is for Sql Server 7 and 2000 but would this also work in my scenerio? I know it wouldn't be auto-magical but if I can still get pushed notifications of changes instead of polling for notifications I would believe this to be a more efficient solution.
Query Notifications are fantastic but the query limitations make real world usage a pain, it's like have a nice red sports car but finding out you can only drive it whens it is raining and then you can only make right turns.

Hi.
I'm developing an app that uses Service Broker queues to allow a customer to create "events" that fire using a timer or a query notification. When these events fire, a message is sent to a Service Broker queue for processing. Because there is much managed code involved in processing these messages, I decided to use the External Activator application and an Event Notification to process these messages. My question is "what is the difference between using the External Activator application to launch another application (which simply RECEIVEs a message from the target queue and processes it) and creating a windows service that simply monitors the target queue (with a WAITFOR = -1 clause) and processes it?"
I guess I'm not sure how using the QUEUE_ACTIVATION Event Notification is really helping me.
Thanks,
Chris

I have read all of the articles and I cannot get the 'send mail' stuff working.
I have a mailbox associated with the Domanin account that starts the sql server and sql server agent services. I installed Outlook and created a mail profile for this account. I bounced the SQL server agent on one of the Instances but when I go into the properties for the Agent, on the General Tab, the option to choose a mail profile is GREYED out. I tried 'xp_startmail' and I get this error: xp_startmail: failed with mail error 0x80040111

All the recommendations I see from Microsoft docs is to limit the use of Query Notifications (QNs) to notifying connected clients when changes to mostly-static reference or configuration data occur, and to keep the number of overall query forms in play and connected clients to a minimum. Any way regarding a more integral use of QNs and Service Broker from a web app to notify n-web servers (farm) of an update to data that could be updated concurrently and quite frequently, or with a system where the technique is used extensively with lots of different query forms?

Good day,
I have a Job that runs every half an hour, and has about 30 steps. If a step fails it moves on to the next step (the steps are not dependant on one another)... However I would like to receive notification if that occurs. I have SQL 2005, with database mail enabled and set up (works fine for other jobs)... The question is how do I get it to send me an email if a single step fails, however the job on a whole succeeds?
Do I need to set up a step between each job?
Step 1 An actual step, on failure: step 2 On success Step3
Step 2 A step that emails the failure of step 1, then goes to step 3
Step 3 An actual step
etc etc... Or is there a better way?

Platform: Win2000 SP3, SQL 7.00 - 7.00.1063I have a SQL-authenticated user with the following permissions:"Process Administrators" server role"db_owner" and "TargetServersRole" for msdb database"db_owner" for master database.The problem is that when this user opens up any job (i.e. owned by anyuser) in the SQL Server Agent, and goes to the Notifications tab, thefirst three alerts (Email, Page and Net send) are greyed out, i.e.these cannot be set.The other options are available (Write to Windows application eventlog, Automatically delete job).The only way I can achieve this is to give this user the "SystemAdministrators" server role, i.e. sa.But this of course gives absolutely full access, which I don't want.Is there a way for a user to see/change Notifications of jobs whichonly he owns?
