DATEFIRST
Dec 6, 2007Hi All
We have a problem with DATEFIRST.
Different users connecting to SQL 2005 and querying the value for DATEFIRST (SELECT @@DATEFIRST). Some users get 7 (Sun), others get 1 (Mon).
What is giving rise to the different values ?
(All users seem to have the same language settings in SQL and their regional settings are the same).
This is impacting stored procs calling DATEPART that are run from within VB6 Apps using ADO.
Thanks in advance

Scope Of @@datefirst
Oct 7, 2002I have created a proc that uses @@datefirst to have the weekending on Friday and starting on Saturday.
If I execute the proc from w/in a cursor, a nested cursor, will I have to constantly check and confirm the @@datefirst value?
TIA

Different Ways To Set DATEFIRST
Oct 28, 2007Hi All,
My week starts on Monday rather than on Sunday which is default(US, English) in SQL Server and would like to change the same so I would get proper weeknumber and dayindex using DATEPART.
I am looking at different ways of setting DATEFIRST(SET DATEFIRST 1) in SQL Server 2005.
I could set in a stored procedure, but this isn't a feasible way for me because I am using .nettiers to generate by business objects and stored procedures. I need to alter the sp's everytime I newly generate the code and sp's.
I couldn't set it in a function which I was hoping initially. I understand this datefirst is stored in one of the sys table in MASTER DB and I couldn't find a straight forward way to change this.
Can anyone suggest me a way to set the DATEFIRST either at a database level or at a server level(probably by changing the sys table in MASTER DB).
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

DateTime :: To_CHAR :: DATEFIRST
Dec 31, 2007 So I need to select and average a whole bunch of data by week. Currently, I group by:GROUP BY TO_CHAR(m.ENDTIME, 'IW')
and select using
SELECT ... TO_CHAR(m.ENDTIME, 'IW') Week
to summarize by week.
Since the first day of the year was a monday, it sets the weeks as monday-monday. 2008 will start the week on Tuesday. I need to set the weeks to be Thursday 7pm to Thursday 7pm. How can this be achieved? I'm not sure if datefirst is the answer. Can it accept decimals? Is there another way to do this?
I'm placing this query into a SqlDataSource selectcommand. Unfortunately I do not have the option of building a stored procedure. Thanks.
Service Broker Is Disabled In MSDB Or MSDB Failed To Start
Nov 21, 2005Whenever I start my SQL Express 2005 database, I get the following in the logs :
View 10 Replies View RelatedError Message In Set Datefirst 7 And Report Parameter
Nov 27, 2007
Hi,
I am setting my Dataset in SSRS to define the First Day of the week to Sunday.
So In the Dataset I put this scripting :
==================================
SET DATEFIRST 7;
SELECT city, country, datepart(wk,transactdate) as WeekNo from CatalogTable
==================================
The select statement above working very fine in the report.
But then, when I put in the Parameter which I have set in Report Parameter for a field called Service then I will get the problem.
For example the scripting below : ==================================
SET DATEFIRST 7;
SELECT city, country, datepart(wk,transactdate) as WeekNo from CatalogTable
where Service IN (@PService)
==================================
I have defined @PService in Report Parameter, and in the Parameter Tab in Dataset inside SSRS.
But it kept prompting me with the eror message :
Error Source : .Net SqlClient Data Provider
Error Message : Must declare the scalar variable "@PService".
When I remove the first line SET DATEFIRST 7; then my query working fine.
It seems SSRS cannot accept SET statement, whenever we insert the parameter in there.
Is there any workaround on this ?
Appreciate a lot for your help.
cheers,

Msdb
Nov 6, 2000I know that msdb is used to manage the job schedulers in sql server 7.0 ( job agent ). Does this (msdb) like other databases, where I can control its size, shrink it or expand it.
IF am backing up the msdb, and I errased all jobs scheduled in sql agen. Can I restore all the deleted Jobs by restoring the msdb.

MSDB Is Too Big
Dec 18, 2007My MSDB is too big [about 14 GB]. When I closely looked all tables, here is what I found -
Top 3 biggest tables are -
sysmaintplan_logdetail - rows- 124923 - data - 13375456 KB
DTA_Tuninglog - 181658 rows - data - 163248 KB
sysmail_mailitems - records - 14227 data - 126208 KB
I am not a DBA, so if any one can explain in simple terms how I can cleanup this maintenance plan log detail without increasing the size of tempdb? How can I stop this database growing in the future?
I have only a gig of space left on that drive.
Thanks in advance
MSDB Over 300MB!
Aug 19, 2002I made a few changes to backup jobs. Within a few hours the MSDB grew to like 355MB. ANY ideas why this happened??

MSDB Problems
Feb 16, 2001I have a problem with my MDSB database. After my nightly reboot, I received an error in my Lof File stating: Error 9001: Cannot file log device for msdb database. I looked and saw the msdblog.ldf, so I am alittle confused. I ran a dbcc checkdb, dbcc newalloc and dbcc updateusage on msdb, but I did not get any errors. I added an additional log file to try and fix it, but nothing has fixed it. I am perplexed because all my scheduled backups are failing.
Any additional advice would be helpful.
Thank you,

Moving Msdb
Feb 29, 2000I want to move the physical location of the msdb database on a SQL server. However I cannot drop the database with the drop database statement, even setting it to dbo use only and single user mode. I get an error message saying the database is in use. Obviously I do not want to reinstall the server. The reason I want to move it is because it is located in the default dir on the C: drive which is running out of space.
Any ideas.....
Restore Msdb
Nov 13, 2000hi, I already have jobs in the sql server agen. I want to copy all these jobs to another sql server, What is the best way to do it.

1. Back up the msdb from the sql server which has the jobs
2. restore msdb into the sql server where I need to create the jobs.
I got an error message, 15089 cannot change the 'single user' option of a database while another user is in the database.

Mar 20, 2000Problem with Msdb
error 1105 can not allocate space in sysbackupdetail.
msdb has 1.0MB of database space available and 1.97MB of log space.
I intended to expand the database but must first expand the device. the available space for the device is -703. So I can not adjust and expand. Any ideas. My hourly dumps appear to be functioning if you view them ny expanding the device but tasks show them as failing.
Msdb Restoration
Dec 7, 2000Hi !
when i am trying to restore MSDB database from a disk backup it is giving an error saying
"Database in use.System administrator must have exclusive use of the databse to run the restore operation".
But i am not using msdb anywhere.when i see the processes under current activities i see an application named sqlagent-alert engine using the database.even after killing this process it reppaears and stops the restore operation.
so i stopped sql server agent and did the restore operation.It worked.
so is it necessary to stop sql server agent while restoring msdb?may i know the logical reason for it?
Permission On Msdb
Feb 8, 2001How would you set up a task run by user without sacrificing the alias permission on msdb (SQL 6.5)?
Situation:
I have set up a task for runing replication by a user with the alias permission on msdb in order for the user to run the task. And I do not want to grant the alias permission to the user for the security reason. But if I set it up by granting only the sp_runtask permission to the user on msdb I always got the message like "You cannot perform this action on a task you do not own."
Please share your workaround. Thank you ahead of time

Sysbackupdetail In MSDB
Aug 30, 1999The sysbackupdetail table in the MSDB database at our SQL6.5 installation has grown to over
50,000 rows, since we back up 25 databases every day. I've enlarged MSDB once because
of a space problem, and I'm wondering whether I can just delete the older entries in this table
to prune it, without dire consequences. MSDB has other history tables, and I'd like to handle
them all the same way.
If I mess with these tables, will the sky fall on me?

Restoring Msdb
Jan 24, 2002Hi,
I am trying to build a test environment for our production server. I backedup and restored all my databases. I had to copy the jobs too, so I backedup and restored msdb database. When I try to change any of the jobs, I get the following message.
"Error 14274: Cannot add, update, or delete a job (or its steps or schedules) that originated from an MSX server."
I have no clue what this message is about. Can someone please provide me with some clues about how I can modify my jobs and get my test environment to work.
Thanks,

MSDB Suspect
Oct 14, 2001I'm running Win2000/SQL2000 on a Compaq CL380 Cluster Server. After a powerdown to do a physical move, the MSDB is now marked SUSPECT. I have tried the stored procedure SP_RESETSTATUS, a DBCC consistency check, and also have restored the database from backup. The database still shows MSDB is suspect. What can I do? We can't get a good backup as long as it is still this way as it depends on the SQL Agent.

Apr 18, 2006I need some data from msdb.dbo.sysjobs and msdb.dbo.sysjobhistory but I need it from a backup file.
I don't need to restore the msdb database, I just need some data from the backup. Everytime I try to restore it under some innocuous name like bills_db it tells me msdb is in use.
Is there a way to restore this db to some other name and retrieve data from it?
