I have merge replication setup to a bunch of mobile subscribers. I want everything managed from the server and I want everything to run continuously. The reason we want this is that we want subscribers to automatically synchronize data within 60 seconds of plugging into the network from any location. We do not want to write anything to have to detect connectivity and initiate it. We do not want it initiated from a subscriber either. This creates a SEVERE logging issue and has halted a roll out at 2 different customers. We can't get beyond about 60 subscribers on a system that was running 3700 subscribers in SQL Server 2000. The server quite literally freezes and becomes non-responsive 1 - 2 times per day. We've tracked this back to the volume of logging into the Windows event log that is being caused by the replication engine.
When subscribers are disconnected, they throw constant errors, to the tune of 1 error every 2 minutes into the SQL Server error log as well as the Windows event log. This is because someone decided that these should be level 18 errors. There is no error. The publisher could not contact the subscriber, so I want it to simply log an error, shut up, go back to sleep, and then try again. I do NOT want a message in my SQL Server error log and I do NOT want a message in my Windows event log.
We are currently logging over 60,000 messages per day into both the Windows event log and the SQL Server error logs for something that we KNOW is a NORMAL operational state of the system. The merge agent doesn't have a parameter that I can feed it to ignore 14151 errors.
The culprit is in sys.sp_MSrepl_raiseerror. Since it is a system object, I can't override it and change the severity level of the error. So, right now we are stuck and the SQL Server error log as well as Windows event logs are being rendered quite useless on the system.
Does anyone have any idea how I can forcefully change sys.sp_MSrepl_raiseerror or in some other way suppress the logging of 14151 errors from the Windows and SQL Server logs?
I click on menu item SSIS and enable logging to my SQL Database (SSIS log provider for SQL Server). When I run the package it runs fine for the first time. Upon subsequent runs I get the following error.
[Log provider "SSIS log provider for SQL Server"] Error: SSIS Error Code DTS_E_OLEDBERROR. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80040E14. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server" Hresult: 0x80040E14 Description: "There is already an object named 'sysdtslog90' in the database.".
It seems like I need to drop the table every time to avoid this error. Is there a way I can log all package logs to single table historically? Any weblink or tip is appreciated.
I am developing a package on my local workstation. I have defined two logging service providers. One is for SQL Server and the other is for the Windows Event Log. I am using the Dts.Log method in a script task to write log entries.
Logging is working properly with the SQL Server provider and rows are being inserted into the sysdtslog90 table. However, the only events that are being logged in the Windows Event Log are the package start and end events which I believe SSIS is doing automatically anyway.
Is there something I need to do to enable WIndows Event Log logging other than defining a log provider and making sure it is checked active? Won't SSIS write to two different logs with one Dts.Log call? Any ideas on what might be going wrong with my approach?
I am getting the following error when I log into SQL server using MS SQL Server Management Studio.
"An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - No such host is known.) (.Net SqlClient Data Provider)".
I tried to allow remote connections using Surface Area Configuration, but it is not allowing me to do so.
I am not sure what I need to do. Anybody, please advice.
I'm using the Execute SQL Task to import error messages into a table. I'm using the following:
"INSERT INTO SSISLog (EventDescription) VALUES (" +@[System::ErrorDescription]+")"
I've got an import task with deliberate errors in the file to be imported to test the error logging task. When I execute it, I get the following messages:

Hi, I decided to use the SQL Server log provider to store logging data of all my Integration Services packages. I also created some reports about this data for operating purposes. I have a problem occurs the name of the executing package is not always written to the log,but the name of the single task which failed. But that is not very useful information for operating, because I do not see any chance to get the name of the package by the information which is logged in the sysdtslog90 table in the database which I defined for SSIS Logging.
How do I configure the package to always log the package information into the table, too?
How can I avoid certain messages from SQL Server being recorded into the Event viewer ? For example, every time I truncate the transaction log with 'Backup log with truncate_only', It is being recorded into the Event viewer as an Error. But, I know that it is not an error. How can I avoid this ?
I am running some DBCC checks as a routine maintenance task on my sql server 2000 servers. I am running DBCC CHECKDB, DBCC CHECKCONSTRAINTS and DBCC CHECKCATALOG. I have established a set of procedures and tables to capture the output from the error log after running these DBCC commands. After running all three, it appears the same info captured for CHECKDB is not logged for these two: CHECKCONSTRAINTS and CHECKCATALOG. Does anyone know why these are not logged and if it is even necessary for me to run these 2 extra DBCC checks? If not, can anyone recommend what database consistency checks should be executed on a daily basis for a production database server?
DBCC CHECKDB (DBNAME) executed by lshores found 0 errors and repaired 0 errors. Elapsed time: 0 hours 20 minutes 32 seconds.
I have a small requirement in SSIS Error Logging Mechanism. Presently in my SSIS package i am using a File Connection Manager for creating a Log file. I have a problem on this regard. Every time when i am executing my DTS package, the error log messages are getting appended to my error log at OS level (say D:error_messg.log). And for this reason whenever my DTS package is getting executed the size of the file is keep on increasing and there by killing my disk space.
I have a requirement for this error logging mechanism. At any time my log file should not exceed more than 20MB. Or can we remove the log events a week ago or say more than 2 days or say. Just ensuring the log file do not fill up the disk space eventually.
How can we do this? Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.
Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) If I insert a wrong password I get the same error message. Which means that I don’t have access to the file. I definitely could use some help since from my provider I get none. Thank you Dov Kruman
Hello,I was wondering if there were any built-in objects to handle error handling, in any of the SQL Server objects, or just to use event log or trace or debug or something like that. Or is it not recommended at all to use try.. catch, for whatever reason.Thanks a lot.
I am getting the following error. “The user instance login flag is not supported on this version of SQL Server. The connection will be closed.� Background i created a site on my development machine, and every thing worked, this computer is running sql EX. I uploaded the site to the production server (running sql 2005 standard) and changed the connection string (i have used this connection string with other dB’s to display data only, and it works) but i tried it with the ASPNETDB.mdf in the AppData folder and i get the above message.
Do i have to set some special permissions in the db for it to work. I need to be able to insert, update, and delete in this app.
I presently have Error Logging turned on for the SQL Executive, but I no longer want it. When I open up the "Configure SQL Executive" window under the Server menu, the "Error Log File" field is dimmed and there is no option to turn it off.
Just like in DTS where we can add error file so that if the DTS package fails we can see what caused the DTS to fail, likewise do we have anything like error logging file in SSIS. I greatly appreciate your help on this. thanks!!
How can I copy the error messages when I execute a SSIS package?. The Progress tab or the Execution results tab both dont have the means to copy the results. I would like the errors to be output to a text file under a directory on my drive system (some thing like C:SSISExecResults.txt). Is this possible?. If so how do I configure my package to output the package execution results to a text file?.
When the embedded DTS package fails at runtime, and logging has been enabled for the package (and all log events selected for reporting on for the package and the task), the DTS error (i.e. any meaningful errors) are not thrown up to/caught by the SSIS/outer level. All you get is something like:
COMException - error returned from a call to a COM component.
Does anyone have any comments &/or know to get errors thrown from within an embedded DTS package, thrown up to the wrapping SSIS package?
I just installed SQL Server 2005 with SP2 on Vista. When I try to login from SQL Server Management Studio, I get the following error message in the log: --- 2007-09-15 18:58:02.23 Logon Error: 18456, Severity: 14, State: 11. 2007-09-15 18:58:02.23 Logon Login failed for user '<computer name><user account>'.[CLIENT: <local machine>] ---
Since I can't login, I can't try some of the stuff I have seen here, such as creating new logins etc.
I installed Analysis Server and Integration Services at the same time. Logging in to them both works fine.
I use windows authentication. I don't know if changing that helps, as I don't know how to change it without logging in in the first place...
I have used skiperrors parameter for 2601,2627 and 20598 errors in my Transaction replication setup. When transactions with above error are encountered, its skipped but I€™m not getting sql command that is skipped in MSrepl_errors table. Since SQL server 2000 is not saving transaction sequence number in the MSrepl_errors we are not getting the command, which have the errors.
Is there any way to track the commands those are skipped in transactional replication.
I have an Analysis Services Processing Task in my SSIS package. I run the SSIS package using SQL Server job, the running of the package is a job step.
When I process manually the analysis services objects (in practise cubes) using dtexec utility I get a lot of log. In case the processing fails I get error messages that quite well describe the error. But when I run the job the only information I get in the job log is that the job step failed. I know the failure happens in the Analysis Services Processing Task.
Is there any way in SSIS to get a) the log of the Analysis Services processing or b) the error messages of the Analysis Services processing? Or should the processing be done some other way than I've been doing?
I recently read the project real ETL design best practices whitepaper. I too, want to do custom logging as I do today, and also use SSIS logging. The paper recommended using the variable system::PackageExecutionId to tie the 2 logging methods together.
I have a Data-Flow task embedded in a Sequence Container (does not fail component on error) on the Control Flow panel of the SSIS designer. This data flow task contains a connection to a Flat File Source -> A Data Transformation -> Into an OLE Db Destination.
The problem is that the Flat File isn't always delimited properly -> the client cannot be relied on to do this.
My question is when the delimiters are messed up, how can I capture the offending error row(s) from the Flat File Source?
What I've tried: 1) Set every column in the source flat file on error to: Redirect Row 2) Added a Script Transformation to pull the description and the record id out of the offending row 3) Added an Error file flat file destination to the end of the flow.
The package always fails on the Flat File Source and never Redirects the offending Row to the error output - I never see my onError Script Transformation go Green, Red, or Yellow - SSIS doesn't let it get there.
I'm really new to SSIS so sorry if this is a super basic question.
Here is the Error Text:
[Source - InventTable_csv [1]] Error: The column delimiter for column "RECID" was not found. [Source - InventTable_csv [1]] Error: An error occurred while processing file "C:------InventTable.csv" on data row 15228. [DTS.Pipeline] Error: The PrimeOutput method on component "Source - InventTable_csv" (1) returned error code 0xC0202092. The component returned a failure code when the pipeline engine called PrimeOutput(). The meaning of the failure code is defined by the component, but the error is fatal and the pipeline stopped executing. [DTS.Pipeline] Error: Thread "SourceThread0" has exited with error code 0xC0047038.
I do have the MaxErrorCount set to 1 on the Data Flow Task but still think I should see my script task execute and a log entry be generated.
Hello experts. I have been searching for anything about this but found very little. What are the events logged in SQL Server Error Logs aside from Successful/Failed Login, Backup/Restore/Recover database and, start/init sql server? Can we configure this to log other events, like CREATE or DBCC events for example? If so, how? Thanks a lot.

I am trying to connect to a SQL Server machine using SQL security instead of integrgated security. However, the server was setup initially to use only integrated security. When I right click on the server and select properties, I get this error:
Error 0: Cannot load the DLL xpstar.dll, or one of the DLLs it references. Reason: 5(Access is denied.).
I googled this error but could not find a single solution. The dll will not register with regsvr32. Do I need to repair SQL Server and then re-run the latest service pack, or is there a simple solution?
I have instaled SQL Server2000 in Administrator user login.My OS is Windows Adavance Server2000. It works Fine. If i change my Administrator Password and Login with the new Password then Sql Server dosn't Run.It says Authentication error if i try to run from service. I belive DBA's in this forum can help me out.
The SqlServer2000 error logs go to Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMssqlLog directory by default.
How can I change their location. I could change SqlServerAgent logs but did not find any help or way to change the location of these. Would anyone please help?
I want to move the log location to the E drive because it can get quite large. I already changed the setting in the SQL Server Error and Usage config tool, but this did not seem to make a difference.
There are times when I need to disable Reporting Services, which I do by stopping the ReportServer application pool service in IIS, temporarily. During these times if a user attempts to access reporting services they get the default Sevice Unavailable error message. I would like to create a custom Service Unavailabile message. Does anyone know how I can do this?
