After i changed my computer's name(eg. the original computer name is 'SERVER-1',I has changed it to 'SERVER-2'),I can not create a new replication in SQL Server 2005.The error message :

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a merge replication. Currently works fine. Publisher & Distributor are on the same server. I need to change the location of the alternate folder for the snapshot files.
I’ll probably just change it through the GUI, but would I use sp_changedistpublisher or sp_changemergepublication if I were scripting everything?
My real concern is the subscribers. Do I have to ‘tell’ the subscribers where the alt folder has been changed to? Do I just run sp_changemergepullsubscription on the subscribers?

Hi,I have transactional replication set up on on of our MS SQL 2000 (SP4)Std Edition database serverBecause of an unfortunate scenario, I had to restore one of thepublication databases. I scripted the replication module and droppedthe publication first. Then did a full restore.When I try to set up the replication thru the script, it created thepublication with the following error messageServer: Msg 2714, Level 16, State 5, Procedure SYNC_FCR ToGPRPTS_GL00100, Line 1There is already an object named 'SYNC_FCR To GPRPTS_GL00100' in thedatabase.It seems the previous replication has set up these system viewsSYNC_FCR To GPRPTS_GL00100. And I have tried dropping the replicationmodule again to see if it drops the views but it didn't.The replication fails with some wired error & complains about thisviews when I try to run the synch..I even tried running the sp_removedbreplication to drop thereplication module, but the views do not seem to disappear.My question is how do I remove these system views or how do I make thereplication work without using these views or create new views.. Whyis this creating those system views in the first place?I would appreciate if anyone can help me fix this issue. Please feelfree to let me know if any additional information or scripts needed.Thanks in advance..Regards,Aravin Rajendra.
View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a replicated database on 2008 R2 being moved to a new instance with 2014. Application regression testing is complete and all tests are good.
The current transactional replication topology is Publishing subscriber: the distributor is local and pushes to a subscription on an intermediary server. This server then has an identical publication and local distributor which then pushes to a subscription on a customer's server. There's no business case for this setup, it's just how it was created at the time.
I want to change this to a Central Distributor model when we do the move to speed things up and remove any extra potential points of failure.
The customer has a requirement that during this process, their subscription database remain online, all tables are fully populated and replication pick up exactly where it was left off. This is a completely new scenario for me and I was hoping to just be able to rebuild the subscription from scratch.
Is there a way to do this move and topology change and meet the customer's requirement?
Changing datatype in a table used for merge replication ?
I'm trying to change the data type on a column in a table that is used for a merge-replication with another (identical) DB.
I get this error:
Cannot alter the table '[Tablename]' because it is being published for replication.
I've tried to remove that specific table from the publication (Publication properties -> Articles tab) so I can change the data type and then put the table back into the publication, but I can't (probably because it's a MERGE rep.)
Any ideas ?

We are currently using continuous transactional replication from an OLTP type database to a Reporting database. We recently changed the 'sa' password for the first time since replication was introduced and now the Replication Log Reader job fails to start.
This is the error from the Job Log:

When we change the 'sa' password back to the previous value, we can start the Log Reader without issue.
We have tried restarting the SQL Server Agent process without success. We have not restarted the SQL Server process due to the server hosting production databases.
Any ideas?
We have inherited a remote distribution db where the password has been lost. I would like to confirm that if you change the password in the distributor properties-->publishers--> administrative link password that the password will be changed on all publishers without having to resnap the publications?

I'm working with merge replication between Sql Server 2005 and Sql Server 2005 Mobile. I'm using dynamic filtering by function HOST_NAME (... where Table.FilteredColumn = HOST_NAME())
When I'm trying to chagne values from filtered column on the client side (Table.FileteredColumn) I get error message that the column is read-only.
How can I change data in filtered column? Is this possible?
Hi,
Our company wants to allow our customers the ability to import employee data. Each customer's employee data changes depending on things like organisation structure etc. so the format of the data to be imported needs to change. We can do a lot of this with dynamic SQL, but are looking at moving it to SSIS as we think it will save us a lot of pain later on and for other features in SSIS.
We're stuck at a fairly early part of the process as we don't know how to dynamically import our spreadsheet. So far our best idea is to connect to the excel connection as the only step in the data task and then to use a script task on the control task, write code to connect to the excel source (set the excel source to not treat the first row as headers so we can do a 'select top 1 *...' ) then create a dynamic sql command to create the table.
Once this is done we would then have another data task that actually puts the data into the newly created table. This all sounds very difficult though. What are the options for doing what we want to do... have a feeling that we're missing something basic.
Any help appreciated,
TIA, Anthony.

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am about to replace a SQL Server which is replicated to about 25 computers. The replacement PC (and SQL Server) will have the same name. I intend to generate a Create Replication Script before shutting down the old PC and to run it on the new one.
Should I also create and use a Remove Replication script and run it on the old PC before shutting it down? I am thinking that I might need to do this to remove Replication infromation from the subcribers before running the Create script.
In other words, is it OK (or not OK) to run the Create script with the subcribers already in existence? Is there possibly a way to run the Create script on the sever and skip updating of the subcribers?
Thanks,

I have a merge replication in place. I increased the identity_range to 100000 for a table. I have done this both ways, via the properties of the publication on SSMS, and via TSQL. I have call sp_adjustpublisheridentityrange. Then I recreated the sanpshot. EXEC sp_adjustpublisheridentityrange @table_name = N'Label', @table_owner = N'caseup';but after synchronization, the range defined in the table's constraint has not changed and now all of the identity values are used up. All inserts are failing.What needs to be done to force the publisher to recreate the identity range on a subscriber(s).

I`m trying to setup our sql2000 sp3a sql server as a Publisher.When i use the wizard to config Publishing and Distribution wizard. I recieve the following error:
Sql Enterprise manager could not configure server as the distributor. Error 14133 Could not execute instdist.sql. Check instdist.out in the install directory.
I`ve checked the install directory and cannot find the file instdist.out file. I assume that it failed before completeing this stage.

Hi ,
I am trying to create Replication Topology (Merge Replication) like below.
Subscriber1 --> Publisher <-- Subscriber2.
I have created both subscribers with Subscription Type as Server with Priority as 75. I am updating the Column A of Row_10 in Subscriber1 on time say 11 am. After i am running the Starting synchronizing agent from Subscriber1. The value propagated to Publisher now publisher contains the latest value in Column A. Uptonow the Subscriber2 is not synchronized with Publisher.
Now in Subscriber2 also Column A of Row_10 is updated say at 11.10 am. Actually now Publisher contains the value from Subscriber1 for that Column and in Subscriber2 we have the same column updated.
Now i am running the Synchronization in Subscriber2, i am getting the result which is not expected. Here Publisher's value is propagated to Subscriber2. But as per real scenario Subscriber2 has the Latest value which is updated on 11.10 AM.
I don't know what am i missing here. Actually merge replication should see the time stamp and it has to decide winner. But here it always considers publisher as a winner and puts the data to Subscriber.
Can anyone help ?
Thanks in advance
Hello all,
When I create a new database and replicate to it using BeginMonitoredBackgroundSync :
Code Block
public void BeginMonitoredBackgroundSync(string User)
{
CreateReplicationInstance(User);
repl.BeginSynchronize(
OnSimplifiedSynchronizeComplete,
SqlCeReplication_OnStartTableUpload,
SqlCeReplication_OnStartTableDownload,
SqlCeReplication_OnSynchronization,
repl);
}
private void CreateReplicationInstance(string User)
{
repl = new SqlCeReplication();
string host = repl.HostName;
repl.HostName = User;
string dbFilePath = "";
dbFilePath = System.IO.Path.GetDirectoryName(System.Reflection.Assembly.GetExecutingAssembly().GetName().CodeBase) +
"\" + repl.HostName + ".sdf";
string myConnectionString = string.Format("Data Source = {0};PWD = {1}", dbFilePath, sqlSettings.Items["SqlPassword"]);
repl.InternetUrl = dynamicsReplicationSettings.ReplicationSettingsItems["InternetUrl"];
repl.PublisherSecurityMode = SecurityType.DBAuthentication;
repl.Publisher = dynamicsReplicationSettings.ReplicationSettingsItems["Publisher"];
repl.PublisherDatabase = dynamicsReplicationSettings.ReplicationSettingsItems["PublisherDatabase"];
repl.PublisherLogin = dynamicsReplicationSettings.ReplicationSettingsItems["PublisherLogin"];
repl.PublisherPassword = dynamicsReplicationSettings.ReplicationSettingsItems["PublisherPassword"];
repl.Publication = dynamicsReplicationSettings.ReplicationSettingsItems["Publication"];
repl.Subscriber = "RemoteSubscription" + repl.HostName;
repl.SubscriberConnectionString = myConnectionString;
repl.ConnectionRetryTimeout = 120;
repl.LoginTimeout = 120;
repl.CompressionLevel = 6;
if (File.Exists(dbFilePath))
{
FileInfo info = new FileInfo(dbFilePath);
if (info.Length <= 20480)
{
File.Delete(dbFilePath);
repl.AddSubscription(System.Data.SqlServerCe.AddOption.CreateDatabase);
}
}
else
{
repl.AddSubscription(System.Data.SqlServerCe.AddOption.CreateDatabase);
}
primeConnection();
}
After the replication finishes, I dispose the replication object like so:
Code Block
void OnAsyncSynchronizeComplete(IAsyncResult asyncResult)
{
try
{
repl.EndSynchronize(asyncResult);
if (repl != null)
{
repl.Dispose();
repl = null;
}
if (ReplicationComplete != null) ReplicationComplete(this, true);
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
if (ReplicationComplete != null) ReplicationComplete(ex, false);
}
}
Then later, if I try to update, insert or delete to the database, the application will hang. I can read from it, but I cannot write. If I close the application down and open it back up without replicating, I will not get any lockups. It also will not hang up after any replications prior to the create replication. I think I am doing something wrong in the initial replication that is holding on to some connection to the DB causing it to lock up. Has anyone seen anything like this before?

Hello,
I have this problem on a Production database.
DBCC OPENTRAN shows "REPLICATION" on a server that is not configured for replication. The transaction log is almost as large as the database (40GB) with a Simple recovery model. I would like to find out how the log can be truncated in such a situation.
Thank you.

I need to change the default collation of all dbs on all my servers to SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AI from SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS. We need to do compares and sorts and want to ignore accents -- something that wasn't clear when we built the servers. I know this has to do with "re-building databases" -- maybe even including the master -- but I'm not certain exactly what this means. Thanks!
View 1 Replies View RelatedAt work, we are in the process of moving a server running SQL Server 7 from one domain to another. A part of this domain change will necessitate that the server be renamed. In a couple of tests that we ran we found that changing the domain does not cause problems, but changing the server name does. How does one register the databases with the new server name without reinstalling everything from scratch?
Any assistance would be greatly appreciated as we are under a time crunch here. Please reply to my email as I am unable to check this board often.

We changed the TCP/IP address on on of our BDC's this weekend (also runs SQL 6.5). Now some of our client workstations are not able to connect to the database using TCP/IP. They can connect with named pipes, but it doesn't "stick" on a reboot. It goes back to connecting with tcp/ip. Some of the client workstations can connect with tcp/ip. Could someone help me with this? I'm confused. I can ping the server by name from the workstations and it resolves the tcp/ip address correctly.

View 1 Replies View RelatedBelow is the script of a Job called "eFIMS_SendEmail" that I wish torun. The intention is that every day of the week the job will executea SPROC at timed intervals. For example, the SundayRun schedule willrun once every 1 hours from 00:30:00 to 23:59:59However, the clients have stated that they want an interface to this toenable them easily to change the start time and frequency interval foreach day. It's an easy matter for me to paint them a form from withinthe target application to enable the user to enter the start time andinterval for each day. I can then pass these as parameters to a SPROC.How can I use these values to change the schedules for the job? Forexample, if wanted to change SundayRun from once every 1 hours to onceevery 30 mins? I know I could do it the hard way, by using stringmanipulation (e.g. find string 'SundayRun', then look for the nextoccurrence of @active_start_time, @freq_subday_type,@freq_subday_interval etc. and
