Enumerate Subscriptions In A Merge Replicated CE Database?
Jun 27, 2007
How can I list all of the Subscriptions in a CE Database that was created with the .Net System.Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeReplication.AddSubscription method?
After I create the CE database in an sdf file, I can connect to it with SQL Servr Mgmt Studio, then see the list of Subscriptions in the Object TreeView, under "Replication"
But I can't find that Subscription list in any properties or methods of System.Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeReplication or System.Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeConnection
Should I be looking in RMO features like Microsoft.SqlServer.Replication??
We want to confirm that a local CE database was last synced from the expected SQL Server database by checking the Publisher property of each subscription in the CE database.
Thanks

Is there a way to move a SQL replicated database from one server to another without dropping the publication?
I have SQLCE setup with SQL server 2000; I want to redo the server but needs to move my replication to a temp server and then back.
The problem is that I do not want to drop my subscription and recreate it…it needs to stay the same.

I have two SQL 2005 Standard servers using merge replication, and out of the blue started getting failure notices regarding "The merge process could not enumerate changes at the 'Subscriber'." I turned on verbose logging and noticed the following section:
2006-04-19 12:53:33.227 Category:NULL
Source: Merge Replication Provider
Number: -2147200999
Message: The merge process could not enumerate changes at the 'Subscriber'. When troubleshooting, restart the synchronization with verbose history logging and specify an output file to which to write.
2006-04-19 12:53:33.227 The Merge Agent was unable to update information about the last synchronization at the Subscriber. Ensure that the subscription exists at the Subscriber, and restart the Merge Agent.
2006-04-19 12:53:33.227 The merge process was unable to update last synchronization information at the Publisher.
Using Profiler on both sides, I don't see anything out the ordinary during the replication process until there are two calls in a row to the stored procedure sp_MSadd_merge_history90, where the second one is storing the error message listed above.
Any ideas?
Thanks,

Hi,
I've seen quite a few posts about this error message but so far no answers. I'm merge replicating between SQL Server 2005 SP2 and SQL Server 2005 Mobile. Everything seems to run really well until at some point I get the above error message while running the replication from the device. It seems to happen just after I've made a schema change on the server e.g. the latest one was adding some new columns (which allow nulls) to replicated tables.
I've switched on verbose logging and I get the following:

The error message doesn't seem very helpful. Is there another way to find out what is causing the problem? I've tried reinitializing all subscriptions and generating a new snapshot but it makes no difference. The only way I've found to fix this is to delete the database on the subscriber and synchronise again (losing all subscriber data since the last sync).
Regards,
Greg

Hi all! Hope you can help us with this one. We installed SP 2 of Sql server 2005 few months ago, and that caused a strange problem with merge replication.
We have about 150 subscribers in one merge publisher, and 200.000 new rows generated each day (retail system). Most tables are filtered.
Replication and filtering works fine, except 0,1% --> 0,2% of rows are not replicated correctly. These "problem-rows" are always replicated correctly to the publisher database, but publisher can't always replicate these rows further to other subscribers. Before SP2 everything worked fine.
Same problem occurs with filtered and non-filtered tables.
SQL Server shows no errors or warnings, everything SEEMS to work fine.
We have to make "dummy"-updates (like update SALES set id=id) in publisher database, to wake up the replicator. And always after these dummy updates all problem-rows will be replicated correctly from the publisher to subscribers.
Why do we have to "wake up" the replicator time to time with dummy updates? Is there a bug in SP2?

Hello,
If I want to access or modify my local subscription data(not the configuration) how can I do that(from sql server 2005 or from asp.net)? Also can i update directly to the local subscriptions data or do I need another layer which will update from a table for example??
Thank you

I've successfully carried out pull subscription using Wizard in SQL server 2000.
But NOW its the time to deploy the project & I've to do it programatically........
i tried to use the default stored procedures like "sp_addmergepullsubscription ", "sp_addmergepullsubscription_agent ", "sp_reinitmergepullsubscription ", with respective parameters.
Then using replmerge.exe i tried to execute the batch file But could not succeed......
Can anyone guide me from the Basics ??? (i knw the Replication Architecture its heirarchy....but have NO idea of performing it Programatically......!!!!!!!!)
by BASICS, i mean......how should i execute the resp. stored procedures with what parametes & the order i should follow in order to successfully pull a merge subscription in SQL server 2000.
if a Sample code is mentioned as example, would be better for me to understand....
Thanking all of you in anticipation...........

Greetings,
We periodically get the following message in our three server peer-to-peer transactional replication environment:
"One or more subscriptions have been marked inactive. Drop and re-create all subscriptions for this node that are failing with this error."
What causes a subscription to be marked inactive? What properties or settings can be adjusted to minimize or eliminate this occurrence?
Everthing seems to be running OK and then we get the message. It afflicts the higest change volume publication on our slowest overseas server.
Thanks,
BCB

I doubt this is possible, but can someone think of a way to change the email address used for sending report subscriptions based on the report or subscription?
It's a need that I've heard from a number of different clients. Scenario: a company has one reporting services server with reports running from numerous departments. Report subscriptions are sent to internal and external email addresses and there's a business need to use different "from" addresses based on the report (or audience).

Hi,
We have to move two of our servers in US hosting SQL Server 2000 database to different location. These servers are clustered using MSCS and uses SAN to store database data. The database on this cluster hosts publisher and distributor. The other two sites in Europe host updateable subscribers. We are using transactional replication. The downtime will be around 24 hours during which servers will be physically moved from one location to other. During this time we will keep the two subscribers running and let the changes queued on subscribers. I have listed following steps based on my limited knowledge of SQL Server. Could somebody please advise if this approach is valid and if I have missed any steps?
1. Make sure no users are accessing database
2. Backup database (In case of emergency need)
3. Stop snapshot, Log Reader, Queue Reader and Distributor Agents
4. Stop SQL Server Service and SQL Agent
5. Take OS backup
5. Shutdown the server
6. Ship the servers and OS backup to new location
7. Setup servers at new location and restore OS backup
8. Start SQL Server Service and SQL Agent
9. Start agents listed in step 3
Regards,
Nilesh

I got Server A with 30 Databases and I was asked to move 30 databases to Server B…
But server A is having 2 databases as Publication and Distribution to two different servers….. and Server A is a subscription for 6 Databases from other servers….
Once I move the databases from Server A to Server B…… what is the best way to get the Replications too…. I mean Server B should have 2 Db’s as Pub & Distr and 6 Db’s as Subscription…
Is there any way I can script it out in Server A and run the same script in Server B with some modification…. so that the Replication work…..??
I have Jobs and Maintenance plans…. Which should also move from Server A to Server B…. I know using DTS...... is there any better way..??
Please some one give me ur suggestion on this…
Thanks

Hi, I have setup a merged replication on two server. Server A contains the Publisher and the Distributor database and Server B contains Subscriber.
If the database at the Subscriber got corrupted. I am thinking maybe i can 'restore' the subscriber database by resynchronising the data from the publisher to subscriber.
But what happen if the Publisher database failed? How should one restore the publisher database and then restore the replication setup?
What will be a good backup/restore strategy for such a setup?

I have a table that was set up with a primary key - that i need to change. The problem is that the database is being replicated to a remote location, and will not allow me to remove or change the primary key on a published database.
Due to the size of the database and bandwith limitations it is not an option to re-initialise the published database.
Is there any to do this without breaking replication

We are going to implement either a replicated database or use log shipping to another database to support our reporting needs. Basically we are moving reporting over data off our transactional database.
With this in mind, I have several questions:
Are there any special configurations in terms of disks for a database in this situation?What are the recommended raid types?
Also, we currently store our data in one filegroup and indexes in another so obviously I'll want those on 2 separate physical disks other than the C:. What about the log files? Do I care where they go (on C: or another physical drive separate from C:, data filegroup drive and index filegroup drive)?
Thanks!

Hi All,
I have SQL server 2005 Database which is having following Replication stuff.
1. 6 merge Subscribers
2. 5 Snapshot Subscribers (Push Susbribers)
3. 3 Transactional Publisher
Due to the Performance Issue, there is need to move SQL server from the Current Server to an Higher End Server.
I want to keep all the Replication settings after movement of the Database. Can anyone tell me how to acheive this requirement?
Is there a possibility to keep the Replication settings ? Even we can have the Same System Name to the New Server.
Awaiting response...
Thanks,
Thams.

I'm working with SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition and am trying to set up a new subscription to a database I created using Management Studio. In the step where you are prompted to choose the Subscriber Type I only have two options: SQL Server 2000 and SQL Server CE.
Why don't I have the options to choose SQL Server 2005 and SQL Mobile 2005?

I'm a novice with replication and am in need of direction on how to restore replicated databases. Server A replicates 5 databases to server B using transactional replication. Server A also contains the distribution database. I'm perfoming PUSH replication.
The development area asked me to restore Server A with a copy of production data located on server C. After I restored the data from C to A, I noticed that server A was no longer published. Is this normal?
I re-published the 5 databases, but noticed that the Log Reader Agent has now been running for 2 hours. I'm trying to give myself a crash course in replication, but am coming up empty regarding (1) the prefered method for restoring replicated databases and (2) determining why the Log Reader Agent is taking so long.
Any suggestions?
Thanks, Dave

I have a production database which uses merge and snapshot replication. The Merge is for 3 tables. The snapshot is to update the rest of the data once daily. I use a Full recovery model and perform database backups (full, differential) and transaction log backups.
I have a database optimization plan which runs 4 times a week. This plan performs and integrity check and rebuilds the indexes. This optimization plan is growing the transaction log by about 8MB each time it is run and we are running out of space on the drive for our log files. The space is not being reused.
I saw in another post where Gail Shaw suggesting using SELECT name, log_reuse_wait_desc FROM master.sys.databases to see why the log space is not being reused. On the database in question, the above returns "REPLICATION".
A colleague tried to backup the transaction log a couple of times to truncate the log this weekend. She was going to perform a DBCC Shrinkfile command afterwards. But the truncate failed. Again looking into things it seems replication prevented the truncation.
We are looking at stopping the merge replication or even removing it to truncate the log file and then recreate the merge replication. How to handle shrinking the log file for now and then seeing if there are any checks or changes I can perform which will allow the transaction log space to be reused.

Hi
I often deal with a problem when replicated database is down due to
electric outage or any other scheduled type of downtime. Primary
database is up but distribution agent is going down 'after 10 attempts
to connect to replicated database'. That's the problem I think because
not only distribution agent goes in undetermined state and I have to
restart sqlagent service, but I need to go through whole process of
snapshot and applaying it to replicated db. I would like it to
accumulate transactions in distribution database and once replicated db
is up - distribute them.
I wonder if anybody can tell me how to configure distribution thread so
it does not go down after 10 unsuccessfull attempts but stays for day
or two.
Thank you, Gene.

Hi,
I have transactional replication set up on a DB and run database maintenance scripts (index defrag, update stats, etc) on this DB daily.
Will the maintenance job/scripts also be propagated to the replica (subscriber) causing these maintenance operations to be performed on the replica OR do I need to create separate jobs on the replica DB (subscriber) also? I'm guessing the latter but wanted to verify to make sure I wasn't missing something. Thanks!

I have a publisher database set up for a merge replication. This is using parameterized filter with join filters.
I also have a stored procedure that does deletes & inserts on the table where the parameterized filter is applied to aid in changing a subscriber's eligibility to receive so and so data. I have observed that running the stored procedure takes extraordinarily long and as a result, the log file grows to a size 1.5 - 2.5 times the database size.
At first I reasoned that this might because I had it set up to use precomputed partitions and changing it requires recalculating the partitions. As a test, I turned off the precomputed partitions. Didn't work. I turned on "optimize synchronization" AKA "keep_partition_changes", which normally is not available when you have precomputed partition on, and that didn't work, either.
At this point, I think I can rule out precomputed partitions being a problem here but I'm stumped now what else I should do to reduce the amount of log writes being required. We do need the parameterized filters & join tables, so that can't go.

Hi All,
I need to get access to stored packages. To do so I use
Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Application class.
There are methods: Application.FolderExistsOnDtsServer, Application.FolderExistsOnSqlServer
but I need to enumerate existed folders.
Are there something like: Application.GetFolders(String ParentFolderName) ?
I have searched in doc but there is not any useful except:
"To verify that the folder was created, the following Transact-SQL query selects all packages stored in the File System folder of the Stored Packages package store.
select * from sysdtspackages90 "
It is not suitable for me because I don't have permissions to access database
Thanks,

Hi all!
I hope anyone here can help me with this tough problem:
I have a replication enviroment with several subscribers.
Publisher:MSSQL 2000, SP3
Subscribers: MSSQL200, SP3 and MSDE2000, SP3
Since a few weeks, one of the subscribers fails when
synchronizing with the message
"This process could not enumerate changes at the subscriber"
The erroroutput with verboselevel 3 doesn't help me much, I
append it to the end of this posting. (unfortunately german)
I heard that this error can be caused by a "blank" in an image
column or different Service Pack Versions - definitely not
possible in this case!
The only strange detail is that the SQL Server Versionnumber
of this MSDE shown via EM is not the same as the number shown
in controlpanel->software. By the way, is it ok that here are
two lines for the MSDE?
SP3 is definitely installed on all machines!
Any help would be greatly appreciated - i'm already losing hope...
Best Regards, Gert
