Cyclical Reference Problem With 2 On Delete Cascades Pointing To Same Table.
Apr 13, 2007
I am not sure if this is necessarily a simple question, but I'm somewhat new to SQL so I thought maybe there's an obvious answer I just don't know about.
The problem is that I have one "master" table, and a child table that has two foreign key references back to that master table. Both of these foreign key constraints are marked as "on delete cascade" with the intention that should a row from the master table be deleted, any rows that reference that object in EITHER foreign key field should be deleted.
I am wondering why this causes a cycle. It seems logical enough to me, it just involves two passes of the table, one for each affected column.
Thanks,
Logan

The following SQL statements give me an error on the last line:
CREATE TABLE Employees (id int PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL, name nvarchar(50));
CREATE TABLE RandomTable (uniq int PRIMARY KEY NOT NULL, empid1 int NOT NULL, empid2 int NOT NULL);
ALTER TABLE RandomTable ADD CONSTRAINT RandomTable_FKey_1 FOREIGN KEY (empid1) REFERENCES Employees (id) ON DELETE CASCADE;
ALTER TABLE RandomTable ADD CONSTRAINT RandomTable_FKey_2 FOREIGN KEY (empid2) REFERENCES Employees (id) ON DELETE CASCADE;
The error is:
"The referential relationship will result in a cyclical reference that is not allowed."
Um...how is this cyclical? Is it because I have multiple cascade paths? If so, how do I go about doing the same thing?
Thanks,
Jeff

Hello,Somebody accidently deleted a record with cascade deletesand took out about 80 records.The database has been used heavily since then.How do I put back the data?I have spent hours researching BOL and all I can findis how to restore the database to a point in time.But that will lose all the work done after the mistake.(We do a full backup every week and log backup every day)Is there a standard way to do this?Morgan

This function will generate all DELETE statements in correct order to perform a CASCADING delete.
For self-joined tables, it will generate the T-SQL code to "unwind" the table, also in correct order!CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fnCascadingDelete

Hi Friends...
In general we cannot delete a table if it refers another table. But in the process of backup and restore, we need to delete all the tables, so we have return an asp.net function...
Dim Datatable As String
Dim ds As New DataSet
ds = gDatabase.ExecuteQuery(" select Table_Name from Information_schema.Tables where Table_type='TABLE'")
If ds.Tables.Count > 0 Then
If ds.Tables(0).Rows.Count > 0 Then
Dim dr As DataRow
Dim da As SqlCeDataAdapter
Dim Cmd As String
For Each dr In ds.Tables(0).Rows
Datatable = dr.Item("Table_name")
Cmd = "Delete from [" & Datatable & "]"
gDatabase.ExecuteNonQuery(Cmd)
Next
End If
End If
we got an error like
"Msg 4712, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot truncate table 'Electricalworks' because it is being referenced by a FOREIGN KEY constraint.
"
how to override these errors, if we have to delete all the tables. We have about 200 tables.

I have been triyng to find an explanation for this error everywhere, but so far have been unsuccessful:
Cyclical forwarding detected for event 17806: Event source was 'SP-MINCL-WDB04' which matches the current forwarding server. The event was not forwarded.
Does anyone know what this means?

I may have misinterpreted the error I just got...but.. is it impossible in SQL Server to have a cascade delete FK constraint that leads to a table which has another cascade delete FK?? What's a workaround? Triggers?

Hello All, i have 2 files in excel which i am uploading them to a folder which is located in the root directory. then i am importing these two files into a sqldatabase. i needed some help in importing them and i got it from my previous post at http://forums.asp.net/t/1261155.aspx but now i have a problem. the import works perfectly first time but when i do it the second time i am getting an error on of the file (header). to explain clearly, what i am doing is , every time i upload a new file , i am deleting the data from the tables, so the new data can be inserted ( basically trying to achieve overwirting the existing data). now this technique works fine with the Detail table but not with the Header table. i think the reason is the header table has a primary key on OrderID and a relationship does exists between the Header and Detail. now how would i overcome this error. can some one please guide me. I really appreciate it.here is my code: // connection for header file

Hi,
On my aspx Web page, I want to delete a member from database table 'tblMember', but if this MemberID is used as FK in another table, I want to display a user friendlier message like "You cannot delete this member, ....." I am using Try, Catch blocks in my Web Page.
Currently it display this message:
"DELETE statement conflicted with COLUMN REFERENCE constraint 'FK_..._....' The conflict occurred in database '...', table 'tblMembers', column 'MemberID'. The statement has been terminated. "
So how should I precisely trap this error? Does anybody know what Exception is it? or what error number in SQL server?
Thanks

Hi seniors
there are two tables involve in replication let say table1 and replicated table is also rep.table1.
we are not deleting records physically in table1 so only a bit in table1 has true when u want to delete a record but the strange thing is that replication agaent report that this is hard delete operation on table1 so download and report hard delete operation and delete the record in replicated table which is very crucial.
plz let me know where am i wrong and how i put it into right way.
there is no triggers on published tables and noother trigger is created on published table.
regards

I have an odbc connection set up and have used it sucessfully in a datareader compoenent but but when I try to use it for a delete SQL task it give me the followign error. what am I doing wrong? I even tried hardcoding in the system name/library name.
Here is my delete sql script

Hello:
Need some serious help with this one...
Background:
Am working on completing an ORM that can not only handles CRUD actions -- but that can also updates the structure of a table transparently when the class defs change. Reason for this is that I can't get the SQL scripts that would work for updating a software on SqlServer to be portable to other DBMS systems. Doing it by code, rather than SQL batch has a chance of making cross-platform, updateable, software...
Anyway, because it needs to be cross-DBMS capable, the constraints are that the system used must work for the lowest common denominator....ie, a 'recipe' of steps that will work on all DBMS's.
The Problem:
There might be simpler ways to do this with SqlServer (all ears :-) - just in case I can't make it cross platform right now) but, with simplistic DBMS's (SqlLite, etc) there is no way to ALTER table once formed: one has to COPY the Table to a new TMP name, adding a Column in the process, then delete the original, then rename the TMP to the original name.
This appears possible in SqlServer too --...as long as there are no CASCADE operations.
Truncate table doesn't seem to be the solution, nor drop, as they all seem to trigger a Cascade delete in the Foreign Table.
So -- please correct me if I am wrong here -- it appears that the operations would be
along the lines of:
a) Remove the Foreign Key references
b) Copy the table structure, and make a new temp table, adding the column
c) Copy the data over
d) Add the FK relations, that used to be in the first table, to the new table
e) Delete the original
f) Done?
The questions are:
a) How does one alter a table to REMOVE the Foreign Key References part, if it has no 'name'.
b) Anyone know of a good clean way to get, and save these constraints to reapply them to the new table. Hopefully with some cross platform ADO.NET solution? GetSchema etc appears to me to be very dbms dependant?
c) ANY and all tips on things I might run into later that I have not mentioned, are also greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

I'm trying to clean up a database design and I'm in a situation to where two tables need a FK but since it didn't exist before there are orphaned records.
Tables are:
Brokers and it's PK is BID
The 2nd table is Broker_Rates which also has a BID table.
I'm trying to figure out a t-sql statement that will parse through all the recrods in the Broker_Rates table and delete the record if there isn't a match for the BID record in the brokers table.
I know this isn't correct syntax but should hopefully clear up what I'm asking
DELETE FROM Broker_Rates
WHERE (Broker_Rates.BID <> Broker.BID)
Thanks

I have a requirement of table partitioning. we have 10 years of data on a table which is 30 billion up rows on 2005 server we are upgrading it to 2014. we have to keep 7 years of data. there is no keys on table or date column. since its a huge amount of data and many users its slow down the process speed. we are thinking to do partition on 7 years for Quarterly based. but as i said there is no date column on table we have to use reference table to get date. is there a way i can do the partitioning with out adding date column on table? also does partition will make query faster?
I have think three ways to do it.
1. leave as it is.
2. 7 years partition on one server
3. 3 years partition on server1 and 4 years partition on server2 (for 4 years is snapshot better?)

The requirement is: I should allow single row delete from a table but not bulk delete. An audit table should get updated if there is any single delete or single update. So I wrote the triggers as follows: for single and bulk delete
ALTER TRIGGER [dbo].[TRG_Delete_Bulk_tbl_attendance]
ON [dbo].[tbl_attendance]
AFTER DELETE

I am new to SQL and I am trying to have a column in my table that points to images I have stored in a directory on my system. I cannot seem to get it to work correctly and I am wondering if someone might be able to help. I want to use this image for each record with the other information on my windows form but I cannot seem to get the file pointer right. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Hi guys, i have a little question, i hope you can back me up please.
I have this tables:
Code:
TV
IdTV - autoincremental int, Primary key
IdCamera - int, foreign key
DeviceType int
Code:
DayLightCamera
IdDayLightCamera - autoincremental int, Primary key
DayLightCameraName - varchar(30)
Code:
InfraredCamera
IdInfraredCamera - autoincremental int, Primary key
InfraredCameraName - varchar(30)
now, when in insert a row in "TV" the foreign key "IdCamera" will relate to a row in either "InfraredCamera" or in "DaylightCamera" depending on the "DeviceType" value.
in other words, if i insert a row with DeviceType=0, then IdCamera will have to point to a row in the "InfraredCamera" table. And if i insert a row with DeviceType=1, then IdCamera will have to point to a row in the "DaylightCamera" table.
so, my question is, how can i make the constraints relationship so that the idCamera relates to a row in DaylightCamera or in InfraredCamera depending on the value of DeviceType? should i make 2 foreign keys with allow null? or should i place both relationships to the same foreign key? im not sure what to do
Thanks guys for your help. it is really appreciated!

How do I "point" a set of stored procedures to operate on different linked servers?
In other words, I have the following linked servers:
DatabaseA
DatabaseB
DatabaseC
DatabaseD
...and in the future, there may be added additional linked servers.
All the linked servers have identical schema, but they contain unique data--each linked server represents a company.
I have a database which will contain stored procedures which I will want to operate against these linked servers. How can I "redirect" my stored procedures to operate against a chosen linked server?
If these were not linked servers, but SQL Server databases, I'd be able to replicate the same stored procedures in each database. Then, when I called a stored procedure, it would act against the data in that database. But these aren't SQL Server databases, so that idea is out.
Unfortunately, the USE command cannot be used within a stored procedure, and even if you could, I can't get it to respond to a database name given as a variable. That idea is out.
The only alternative I have left is to use the string catenation facility of the EXECUTE command. Unfortunately, with 100s of complex queries, setting that up is going to be a nightmare.
Does anyone have any ideas?

I hope this question belongs in this forum.
I have a .ADP application (access 2000 front end, SQL Server 2000 back end)
I basically want to create a new .ADP file and point it to a different SQL Server 2000 Database.
I've copied the current SQL Server DB and recreated it. Same for the .ADP file, but it is currently pointing to the old Db, where do I go to have it point to the new SQL Server DB?
Thanks

I am using vs 2010 to write my dtsx import scripts.I use a script component as a source to create a flat file destination file.Everything have been working fine,but then my development machine crashed and we have to install everything again.Now when i use the execute package utility to test my scripts i get the following error:
Error system.NullReferenceException: Object refrence not set to an instance reference.
In PreExecute section
TextReader = new system.io.streamreader(" file name")
In the CreateNewOutputRows:
dim nextLine as string
nextLine = textReader.ReadLine
[code]...
is there something which i did not install or what can be the error?

Hello everyone !
Given a UDT, is there any way to get a reference to the table where the specific instance is running ?
IE: Let's suppose we have defined a UDT named UDTPoint; now we define two tables: ATable & BTable, wich both have one column that is defined as UDTPoint.
When an insert/update/delete operation on ATable or BTable occurs, the UDTPoint class needs to verify in which context it is running (ATable or BTable) before doing operations on data.
Is there any way to achieve that ?
Thanks
Giovanni

I've started working at an organization that has a sql 2005 cluster with a named instances on it, lets call it Instance1. What they done is to create a dns alias for servername that is the same as the instance name, so when you connect to the sql server you connect "Instance1Instance1".
We want to move to SQL 2014 cluster with AlwaysOn Availability Groups doing the HA/DR, the question is if I create a listener name called "Listener1" is there a way to using DNS or anything else to point "Instance1Instance1" to "Listener1"

The table above is my users table. It allows for a user to be at multiple sites or multiple locations within a single site or multiple sites. Would it be wise to use a auto incrementing primary key instead of the 3 column composite key? The reason I ask is because if I am referencing this SU table (which I will be a lot), a lot more data would be replicated to the tables which have the foreign key to this table, right? But if I used a single incrementing column as the primary key, only a small integer would be used as the foreign key, saving space?Does this make sense?

I have 2 databases in sql server. let us say database1 = db1 and database2 = db2
Now both the databases have a same table called table1 with the same fields.
IF data in db1.table1 is updated then data in db2.table2 should be updated automatically.
There are many ways we can do this. one way is to create a INSERT trigger on db1.table1.
But i would like to avoid trigger
Is there something in SQL server where I can just link table1 of db1 to db2 and delete the table1 in db2. That means db2 is using the same table that of db1.
Thanks

Hi all,
I am new to this site and I hope anyone out there can help me. I was tasked to change the constraints of my existing table. Lets call it table1. This table has an attribute that needs to take the value of another attribute of another table ( let's call it tables2) and that attribute must satisfy a certain expression ( I suppose I can isolate it by using the select statement ).
Anyone know how to get this done.
Please advice.
Thanks and appreciated.

Hello everyone,
this would be my first posting.
I would like to know if it's possible in MS SQL to redirect a table into another DB instance? I have no access into the source code and I have been wondering if it is possible to make a redirection/hard link in MS SQL side.
I would have a table in my base DB and when a query is made into this table, the MS SQL would redirect it to another DB or table. Is this possible in MS SQL ? Something along the lines of a hard-link in linux.
Thank you very much.

In our environment applications are using a DNS name which points to the physical server ip address. Now we are planning to move to 2014. We are planning to have servers in different subnets so we will be having two ip adresses for listener. How we can point the DNS to the listener ips? If failover happens can the DNS point to the exact ip address of the listener where it's primary node?

Hi,
I am using a WMI Event Watcher task to watch for files dropped into a directory over a network drive.
It seems to work fine when it is pointed to a physical drive name, but not when I use a machine name.
I.e.
This works -
SELECT * FROM __InstanceCreationEvent WITHIN 10 WHERE TargetInstance ISA "CIM_DirectoryContainsFile" and TargetInstance.GroupComponent= "Win32_Directory.Name="C:\\temp\\folder1\\folder2\folder3""
This fails -
SELECT * FROM __InstanceCreationEvent WITHIN 10 WHERE TargetInstance ISA "CIM_DirectoryContainsFile" and TargetInstance.GroupComponent= "Win32_Directory.Name=\\\\machineName\\folder1\\folder2\\folder3"
The failing code does not throw any errors (i.e. SSIS thinks the WQL syntax is correct), but it doesn't pick up any dropped files.
Am I doing something incorrect with the syntax, or must I use a physically mapped drive letter?
Thanks
H
