Cannot Create Publication After SP1 Upgrade
May 24, 2006
After upgrading SQL Server 2005 with the recent service pack, I am unable to create a publication. When I right-click on [INSTANCE]/Replication/Local Publications and select "New Publication...," the mouse cursor turns into an hourglass, but the wizard never shows up, nor is any error displayed.
There is a logged error that's been showing up that may or may not be related. The error message is "Replication-(null): agent (null) scheduled for retry. Could not clean up the distribution history tables."
Any ideas on how we can restore replication functionality on our SQL Server instance?

When running the create publication wizard, I get:
"Error 14294 - Supply either @Job_id or @Job_Name to identify the job"
I had pubs & subs set up, but things were erroring, so I tried deleting everything and wanted to start from scratch, but the last step in the wizard gets me stuck.
Is it ok to clear the tables in the Distribution database that have info from earlier attempts at setting things up ?
Is there a way to delete the distribution database & really start from scratch ?

I re-created a publication that was having problems and it gives this error when I start the snapshot agent from SQL Server Management Studio: I am stuck on how to resolve - any ideas?
"The publisher's identity range allocation entry could not be found in MSmerge_identity_range table. Transaction count after EXECUTE indicates that a commit or ROLLBACK TRANSACTION statement is missing. Previous Count = 1, current count = 2."
select * from MSmerge_identity_range returns 19 entries but I don't know how to fix.
I have tried deleting and re-creating but always get this error.
My other publications and subscriptions are working fine and I was able to create a new test publication that worked but can not get this one to work that worked fine up until today.
Any ideas?

Hi, everyone,
I am new in SQL server 2005. I had setup SQL server 2005 P2P replication. Somehow it did not work one of two way replication. I tried to delete the publication. However I could not do it. have the same problem. When I tried to delete the publication, I got the publication " " does not exist.[SQL server error: 20026]. I tried to use sp_droppublication, it gave me error "the database is not enabled for publication". Nevertheless, I can see the publication in MS SQL Management Studio and Publication monitor with OK status. I could not find the distribution database either.
Could you anyone has ideas to delete this publication? I am sorry I am not a programmer. Please give me more detail explanation if you can. Thanks.

We have installed 2014 sql server on a stand alone VM and can create alerts without issue. We recently did a cluster install of 2014, and when trying to create alerts get the following error:
Msg 14262, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_verify_performance_condition, Line 52
The specified object_name ('Databases') does not exist.
Specifically, we are trying to create a database alert on percent log used that will kick off a job to back up the log.
We are on Windows 2012R2 o/s. In the drop downs in SSMS under alerts, we do not have all the options we have in the stand alone instance - they are not there. Is this a bug? Is there a CU?

Greetings,
I have a client whose DBA upgraded their SQL 2000 database to SQL 2005. They still have it running in 8.0 compatibility mode, for various reasons, and would like me to help them develop a migration strategy to get them to full 9.0 compatibility.
My question is: can I run the Upgrade Advisor on a SQL 2005 engine database running in 8.0 compatibility mode and get anything useful? I already know there will be some issues with existing DTS packages but it would be nice to catch any other issues in advance.
I know that the Upgrade Advisor was run before the upgrade took place but to my knowledge the report was not saved and none of the recommendations were followed.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Lon

I have a publication on my SQL Server.
The first time my application syncs with the server it works fine.
If I try to sync again I get "Permission Denied Number 80040E09 NativeErr: 0"
Other publications work fine, it just seems to be this one.
Any ideas?

Hello ,
I have a problem with a publication which is a transactional replication on SQL Server 7.0 .
I want to add stored procedure to the existing publication along with the tables . But the Enterprise manager does not allow to select or check the box
against the required stored procedure although it displays when i right click on the publication and select proeprties .
Can i have some help in this regard ? Does anybody knows to add a stored procedure by means of a query .
Is there any other way to modify publication in SQL Server 7.0 although it is possible in SQL Server 2000 .?
Many thanks in advance.
Sandra .

I have been wrestling with this one all day and cannot find anything on MSDN, google, etc.... I have configured replication, but cannot create a new publication either programmatically or using the wizard.
I programmatically did the following:
1. I set up my local server as a distributor, and created a distribution database (@distributor set to server sysname)
execute sp_adddistributor @distributor = @distributor
execute sp_adddistributiondb @database = @distributionDB, @security_mode=1;
2. I registered my local server also as a Publisher (@publisher set to server sysname, @distribution = 'distributor')
SELECT @sql = 'sp_adddistpublisher @publisher = ''' + @publisher +
''', @distribution_db = ''' + @distributionDB +
''', @working_directory = ''' + @directory + ''', @security_mode = 1'
SELECT @sp_executesql = quotename(@distributionDB) + '..sp_executesql '
EXEC @sp_executesql @sql
3. I enabled my local database for transactional replication (@replicationDB)
exec sp_replicationdboption
@dbname = @replicationDB,
@optname = 'publish', @value = 'true
4. I added a logReaderAgent on the ReplicationDB
SELECT @sql = 'sp_addlogreader_agent @publisher_security_mode = 1'
SELECT @sp_executesql = quotename(@replicationDB) + '..sp_executesql
EXEC @sp_executesql @sql
All is well up to this point, no problems, all looks great. When I check the status of things using sp_help repl stored procedures to check on publisher, distributor all looks healthy. Also looks good when I use the SSMS replication interface to check on distributor, publisher, etc. . HOWEVER...... I cannot create any publications.
I tried programmatically, and also by using the wizard.
I keep getting the same error :'Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'pubid', table'.
This is the sql I try to run:
EXEC sp_addpublication
@publication = 'test3333',
@status = N'active',
@allow_push = N'true',
@allow_pull = N'true'
This is the error:
Msg 515, Level 16, State 2, Procedure sp_MSrepl_addpublication, Line 1320
Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'pubid', table 'CypressMaster.dbo.IHpublications'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails.
The statement has been terminated.
Msg 14018, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_MSrepl_addpublication, Line 1348
Could not create the publication.
If I use the wizard instead of trying to create the publication programmatically, I get this error (just about the same content, but a little different wording):

hi
I was following the walkthrough "Creating a Mobile Application with SQL Server Mobile" and when I got to the point where you create a "local publication" I couldn't find the link "Local Publication" in my Object Explorer.
I read all the help in books online however id did not tell me how to bring that link there.
I did install the replication component using the CD installation. I have SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition and Visual Studio 2005
I also found the help "Using the Publication Wizard to Create a Publication" but did not know where to locate or start the wizard.
any help will be appreciated.

Hello ,
I want to drop a table from a publication , so that i can copy some data from another server . After the copy , i want to add the article or the table back again to the publication without making any changes to the subscribers configuration .
Is it really possible on SQL 7.0 ? Right now it does not allow me to copy the data to the published table or even drop the article (table) and it says that the article is published for replication and cannot be dropped or modified .
The table is configured for transactional replication .
I will have to drop the entire publication and create all the subcribers again .
Any help in this regard please .

Hi,
I disabled a merge publication on my server. I then ran sp_removedbreplication to clean the system tables. Thats fine. When I recreate a new publication on my server now, I still get the red x on my publisher node in my replcation monitor from the error I was getting before. Evenm though this publication is error free. Is it saving an srror flag in one of the sytem tabbles
Any ideas on this?

Hi,
I'm using DMO (SQLOLE65.dll) to programmatically replicate selected publications. The Publication object supports a property called Enabled, which can be set to FALSE. I'm setting the enabled property to TRUE for those publications that need be replicated, and make the others FALSE. Still, all publications get replicated. [I give DoAlter to commit the changes i made.]
Any solution,Please mail me ASAP to venkateswaranb@synectics.soft.net

We have to add some hardware and I was wondering if someone could provide a stepwise tip to do it .
It is a 3 Server Environment Pub/Dist/Sub
All three running under SQL2K
Here is what I am planning.
a. Uncheck the Enable in Distributed Agent for each replication
b. Wait for all replications to complete
c. Shut down Publisher ? Or do I have to do something else before that.
Please explain a little .

I have a case of SQL Server 2005 production db's publication which does not have either Log reader, snapshot or distribution agents.
I need to modify primary key in one of the tables, and existing publication does not allow this.
When I try to start snapshot job in GUI I am getting of course error:
"Could not find the regular snapshot job for the spicified publication. Supply either @job_id or @job_name to identify the job, error 20678."
Is there any way to erase it with system st procs or SQL?
