My Production server has Windows NT and Sql server 7.0 installed, there are 3 drives my data lies on physial E: which is 8.46 GB and 1.91 GB is used it is mirrored. I need to create a Database with two tables with varchar, datetime and numeric columns. the data would be 30 millions. everynite 10 millions data would be deleted and then same amount would be inserted. During day time it would be only selects on that database.
My main corncern is can SQL Server handles this big db and does inserts and deletes be completed in 7 hrs during nite?
I'm using service broker and keep getting errors in the log even though everythig is working as expected
SQL Server 2005 Two databases Two end points - 1 in each database Two stored procedures: SP1 is activated when a message enters the sending queue. it insert a new row in a table SP2 is activated when a response is sent from the receiving queue. it cleans up the sending queue.
I have a table with an update trigger In that trigger, if the updted row meets a certain condition a dialogue is created and a message is sent to the sending queue. I know that SP1 and SP2 are behaving properly because i get the expected result. Sp1 is inserteding the expected data in the table SP2 is cleaning up the sending queue.
In the Sql Server log however i'm getting errors on both of the stored procs. error #1 The activated proc <SP 1 Name> running on queue Applications.dbo.ffreceiverQueue output the following: 'The conversation handle is missing. Specify a conversation handle.'
error #2 The activated proc <SP 2 Name> running on queue ADAPT_APP.dbo.ffsenderQueue output the following: 'The conversation handle is missing. Specify a conversation handle.'
I would appreceiate anybody's help into why i'm getting this. have i set up the stored procs in correctly?
i can provide code of the stored procs if that helps.
I have a need when a Update, Insert or Delete is done to a record in DB "A", it will send the appropriate UID to a different table in different DB "B".
My first thought was to have a trigger on the table in DB "A" simply call a stored procedure on DB "B" and do the UID.
However - my question is what is the best approach and what's the best way to establish the connection to DB "B" for the UID from within DB "A"? We can't use linked servers - DNSLESS string would be the preferred connect way. Not sure how to execute it within a trigger.
Is even using a Trigger to Stored Proc the best way?
What about Transaction Replication - which I've never attempted - is that a better way?
Just looking for some guidance here so I don't needlessly burn time down a path that isn't recommended or simply won't work.
hi, I have settup up sql mail and did the following: 1. created an E-mail account and configured Out look by creating a pop3 mail profile. tested it by sending and receiving mail, that is ook 2. I Created one domain account for MSsqlserver and Sql Agent service. both services use same account and start automatically in the control panel-services 3. I used the profile that I created in outlook to test the sql mail but got an error: Error 22030 : A MAPI error ( error number:273) occurred: MapiLogon Ex Failed due to MAPI Error 273: MAPI Logon Failed
I really do not know what went wrong. I followed the steps from bol and still having a problem. Am I missing something.
I do have a valid email account I do have a valid domain account I tested outlook using the email account and it worked. so why sql server does not recognise MAPI.
My next question, How to configure MAPI in Sql server if what I did was wrong.
Hi, I have 2 windows 2000 server in cluster with sql server 2000 enterprise edition installed. I have activated the Server-Requested Encryption by using the sql server network utility (Force Protocol Encryption). After this, I have stoped sql server service.

Are there any function in SQL Server 2005 which can help to calculate the total no. of days and months? Let's said if I provide 2 dates, 28-Feb-2001 and 01-Mar-2004, it can return 36 Months and 2 Days. The concept is like the function months_between in Oracle. Are there any function in SQL Server 2005 can achieve this?
Hi, I have a table Called Actcodes and has 2 columns Name and Description... And i want to insert the data from this table called PlanDBF to ActCode.. and this my insert statement... INSERT INTO Statements..AscActCodes ( Name, Description ) SELECT ACT_CODE1, ACT_DESC1 ACT_CODE2, ACT_DESC2, ACT_CODE3, ACT_DESC3, ACT_CODE4, ACT_DESC4, ACT_CODE5, ACT_DESC5, ACT_CODE6, ACT_DESC6, ACT_CODE7, ACT_DESC7, ACT_CODE8, ACT_DESC8, ACT_CODE9, ACT_DESC9, ACT_CODE10, ACT_DESC10, ACT_CODE11, ACT_DESC11, ACT_CODE12, ACT_DESC12, ACT_CODE13, ACT_DESC13, ACT_CODE14, ACT_DESC14, ACT_CODE15, ACT_DESC15, ACT_CODE16, ACT_DESC16, ACT_CODE17, ACT_DESC17, ACT_CODE18, ACT_DESC18, ACT_CODE19, ACT_DESC19, ACT_CODE20, ACT_DESC20 FROM PlanDBF
each actcode and its description is gonna be different and so i am not sure how to do this 1 - many column insert.
Hello everybodyI've got a small system (~20 client machines) connected to one SQL Server2000. Two of these machines refuse to connect to the database. As I don'tknow how the license system is supposed to work, I haven't investigatedtoo much yet.My question is therefore:Will SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition refuse to accept any newconnections when all licenses are used?Is such case, what tool do I use to add more licenses?thanks in advance--Johnny Ljunggren
We have implemented our service broker architecture using conversation handle reuse per MS/Remus's recommendations. We have all of the sudden started receiving the conversation handle not found errors in the sql log every hour or so (which makes perfect sense considering the dialog timer is set for 1 hour). My question is...is this expected behavior when you have employed conversation recycling? Should you expect to see these messages pop up every hour, but the logic in the queuing proc says to retry after deleting from your conversation handle table so the messages is enqueued as expected?
Second question...i think i know why we were not receiving these errors before and wanted to confirm this theory as well. In the queuing proc I was not initializing the variable @Counter to 0 so when it came down to the retry logic it could not add 1 to null so was never entering that part of the code...I am guessing with this set up it would actually output the error to the application calling the queueing proc and NOT into the SQL error logs...is this a correct assumption?
I have attached an example of one of the queuing procs below:
Code Block DECLARE @conversationHandle UNIQUEIDENTIFIER, @err int, @counter int, @DialogTimeOut int, @Message nvarchar(max), @SendType int, @ConversationID uniqueidentifier select @Counter = 0 -- THIS PART VERY IMPORTANT LOL :) select @DialogTimeOut = Value from dbo.tConfiguration with (nolock) where keyvalue = 'ConversationEndpoints' and subvalue = 'DeleteAfterSec' WHILE (1=1) BEGIN -- Lookup the current SPIDs handle SELECT @conversationHandle = [handle] FROM tConversationSPID with (nolock) WHERE spid = @@SPID and messagetype = 'TestQueueMsg'; IF @conversationHandle IS NULL BEGIN BEGIN DIALOG CONVERSATION @conversationHandle FROM SERVICE [InitiatorQueue_SER] TO SERVICE 'ReceiveTestQueue_SER' ON CONTRACT [TestQueueMsg_CON] WITH ENCRYPTION = OFF; BEGIN CONVERSATION TIMER ( @conversationHandle ) TIMEOUT = @DialogTimeOut -- insert the conversation in the association table INSERT INTO tConversationSPID ([spid], MessageType,[handle]) VALUES (@@SPID, 'TestQueueMsg', @conversationHandle);
SEND ON CONVERSATION @conversationHandle MESSAGE TYPE [TestQueueMsg] (@Message)
END ELSE IF @conversationHandle IS NOT NULL BEGIN SEND ON CONVERSATION @conversationHandle MESSAGE TYPE [TestQueueMsg] (@Message) END SELECT @err = @@ERROR; -- if succeeded, exit the loop now IF (@err = 0) BREAK; SELECT @counter = @counter + 1; IF @counter > 10 BEGIN -- Refer to http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms164086.aspx for severity levels EXEC spLogMessageQueue 20002, 8, 'Failed to SEND on a conversation for more than 10 times. Error %i.' BREAK; END -- We tried on the said conversation, but failed -- remove the record from the association table, then -- let the loop try again DELETE FROM tConversationSPID WHERE [spid] = @@SPID; SELECT @conversationHandle = NULL; END;
If myDateTimeColumn contains a <NULL> value. How do you handle that when reading into a DateTime object in your code?DateTime myDate = Convert.ToDateTime(dr["myDateTimeColumn"]);Does not work, it throws: System.InvalidCastException: Object cannot be cast from DBNull to other types. I am curious as to what others are doing to handle this?

we are queirying an stored procedure multiple times same time,from our application. In this case, few processes executing successfully and few getting failed with error "50000 error executing the stored procedure" and if we run thesame process again its getting executed sucessfully.Does the MySQL cannot handle multiple threads same time?

I have a problem with sql server merge replication in sql server 2000. If my db owner €œdbo€? and replication setup under €œsa€? account it works with out any problem. But when I use another db owner it can not work properly. For an example I have customer table ([dbo]. [Customer]) When I setup merge replication under sa account it€™s work properly. Again I was setup merge replication using another db owner ([INV]. [Customer]) It doesn€™t work.
We have a table to 100M rows and up until now we were fine with an non clustered index a varchar(4000) because we never went above 900 bytes (yes it is a bad design).We have the need to support international character sets now so the column was updated to nvarchar(4000) and now we have data past the 900 byte limit.
The data is long, seems useless but is needed by the business and they need to be able to search "where bigcolumn like 'test%'". With an index, even with a huge amount of data, it was 'fast'. Now of course without an index it is unusable. The wildcard is always at the end of the search. I made a full text index on the column and basic queries such as: select * from ourtable where contains(bigcolumn, 'AReallyLongStringofTextHere') works fine unless there is a space in the data. We loose thousands of returned rows because of spaces in the data.
I have tried select * from ourtable where contains(bigcolumn, '"AReallyLongStringofTextHere that includes spaces"') but not all of the data is returned. I get 112 rows with the contains statement. The table scanning statement of "select * from ourtable where bigcolumn like 'AReallyLongStringofTextHere that includes spaces%' returns 1939 rows.I understand that a full text index is breaking the long string up since it contains spaces. Is there a way to retain the entire string as 1 index entry or is there a way to fix my query to return all of the rows?
SServer PC: Win SBS 2003 with 2.6 GHz processor and 1GB RAMSQL Server 2000 v 2000.8.00.76 (sp3)MS Office 2k3MSJet ms04-014 (latest ost sp8)MDAC v2.8 RTMADO 2.1vb6.exe / ADO 2.0I think this is a SQL Server/ADO problem as I have 2 applications withsame problem.My access database uses a timer based function to insert records intoSQL Server using ADO and stored procedures. Access also uses DAO ,Jet/ odbc to linked tables on SQL Server for many other tasks/forms.All is well when Access 1st run but after a few hours or so the Accessapp grinds to a halt.Upon checking the task manager the mem usuage upto 160MB and handlecount upto 86,000 ! (cpu process % is low).After the "Access Fail" if I stop/start access only, performance isnot returned, I have to stop/start SQL Server.It would seem that allconnections from this PC to SQL server are badly affected, it is nottied to the client application that had the problem.As I could not work out where the problem was I took the Accessfunctionality into a VB6 app, using ADO 2.0, thinking this shouldsimplify matters with Jet and ODBC out of the way.I now have the same problem with the number of handles increasing withevery new timer based function.* code snippet example *If Not OpenConnection Then 'we have not been able to open aconnection to SQL serverCall procLog("Connection failed to SQL server")Exit FunctionEnd If'gVar.cnnSQL is my public ADODB.ConnectionSet cmdSQL = New ADODB.CommandWith cmdSQL.ActiveConnection = gVar.cnnSQL.CommandText = "MyDB.dbo.insert_tblMyData".CommandType = adCmdStoredProc.Execute RecordsAffected:=lngRecs, _Parameters:=Array(lngID, dtDate,intCategory,strNationality,strNotes,strName)End With* code snippet *** After the "Access Fail" if I look at one of my clients, running thesame Access app on another PC, it seems normally responsive when usingone my bound forms to browse the data from same SQL Server **Any ideas anyone ?
We are designing a Staging layer to handle incremental load. I want to start with a simple scenario to design the staging.
In the source database There are two tables ex, tbl_Department, tbl_Employee. Both this table is loading a single table at destination database ex, tbl_EmployeRecord.
The query which is loading tbl_EmployeRecord is, SELECT EMPID,EMPNAME,DEPTNAME FROM tbl_Department D INNER JOIN tbl_Employee E ON D.DEPARTMENTID=E.DEPARTMENTID.
Now, we need to identify incremental load in tbl_Department, tbl_Employee and store it in staging and load only the incremental load to the destination.
The columns of the tables are,
tbl_Department : DEPARTMENTID,DEPTNAME
tbl_Employee : EMPID,EMPNAME,DEPARTMENTID
tbl_EmployeRecord : EMPID,EMPNAME,DEPTNAME
How to design the staging for this to handle Insert, Update and Delete.
how to handle space between multi-value parameter values in SSRS. For e.g. if the values are as follows -'KLO LUG', 'HGY KIU', 'LOT JUY', I know I can use the split function for the commas but its the space between the value which is the problem.
Hi! I recently was confronted with a problem where a piece of text that was included in many NTEXT column values in a table needed to be replaced with another piece of text. You can't issue normal REPLACE statements against NTEXT columns, so this seemed to be a bit of a challenge €” issuing a REPLACE() against a TEXT or NTEXT column in SQL Server yields error
Server: Msg 8116, Level 16, State 1, Line 1Argument data type ntext is invalid for argument 1 of replace function.
For Example: I want to replace string <![CDATA[sp_YOTAssetAdditionalOffences 0, ArgParamHearingsId, ArgParamLanguage]]> with <![CDATA[sp_YOTAssetAdditionalOffences 0, ArgParamHearingsId, ArgParamLanguage, ArgParamReferralId]]> in NTEXT column values in a table.

I've got MSDE, SQL Server 7.0, installed. I want to handle an .mdfdeveloped by someone else so I loaded the .mdf into my /DATA folder.But, MSDE/ODBC can't see the database. I subsequently discovered thatit was created using SQL Server 2000. Is this the reason that my MSDE7.0 doesn't see the .mdf? If so, how can I use this database with my7.0? Backup from 2000, restore to 7.0?Thanks for any help.

We use windows NT authentication. We did not do any change on NT. The SQL Server daily schedule job usally stoped at 10:00AM, but today from the Window NT Task Manager, we can see that the SQL Server is still running untill now.
Basically the error that I am getting is in our test automation when running as non-admin on the box (regular user). We use .Net C# SQLConnection class to connect to SQL express 2005 impersonating with admin credentials. After getting the connection we try to execute a select command and it some time fails with following error: A transport-level error has occurred when receiving results from the server.

Hello, I am facing a huge problem in my sql server database using access as a front end.The main problem is trying to execute queries "views" ,since they reside on sql server now,and using variables or parameters in reports and forms to filter on this query. Ex. how can the following be implemented using the same query but in sql server? Access ------ SELECT MAT_Charts.YYYYMM FROM MAT_Charts WHERE ((([Area_Code] & "-" & [GROUP_CODE])=[Reports]![MAT_Chart_C1].[MAT_Key])) GROUP BY MAT_Charts.YYYYMM;
It is specifically this statement in which I am interested: [GROUP_CODE])=[Reports]![MAT_Chart_C1].[MAT_Key]))
Is it possible to catch and error and then keep the process going in a stored procedure? So if an update encounters a primary key violation on a row, is it possible to skip that row and keep the process going?
Hi! I have some try .. catch block trying to insert some data into database. During its action duplicate key row insert error could raise, for example. The question is how could I know distinguish it from other sql errors? Object ex (Catch ex As Exception) has only message property '{"Cannot insert duplicate key row in object 'dbo.Group_Courses' with unique index 'IX_Group_Courses'.The statement has been terminated."}' and type System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException. Knowing the type of error is not enough, because there are different SqlExceptions. Even the message is not unique for this error, because now i deal with 'dbo.Group_Courses' and then it could be other table. Is there something that unique identifies each error? For example error code. If it exists, where could I get it? Thanks in advance!
I test my the now function and it is getting the right date. When I try to send that to the sql database I have it turns it into 1/1/1900. Does anyone know why this is happening, I have tried everything Here is my code:
Hi, I would like to handle a sql error in t-sql and return a certain value in case error occurs. For example if I would like to add a record I want to return a certain identity value or maybe a status of transaction (0 for incomplete, 1 for succesfull trans). If error occurs in sql I cannot return any values back to asp.net because of What I am doing at the moment is catching an error in asp.net and then displaying an error message. Is there a way to return only a return value to asp.net and somehow handle the error in t-sql? Thanks
