When I'm in EM, there is one log that when I click on it to view it hangs my EM. All other logs (current and others) I can click and view just fine. I'm on my way out to the server to see the log in the file directory but what could cause this?
Thanks..
When looking at SQL Server error logs, I noticed that the current error
log had grown to 1MB whereas most of the files are only a few KB.
QUESTION 1: Can I set the max size for an error log file? If so, how?
QUESTION 2: If not, is there a workaround?
Thanks

I created a package in SSIS, and used the SQL Server Agent to run the package. I get an error 'Package Execution Failed' everytime I run it throught the SQL Server Agent.I don't get an error if I run the package from SSIS.
I right-clicked in 'Control Flow' and clicked Logging to add a new log. After I re-run this again in the SQL Server Agent, where do I go to find the error log?
OS: Windows 2012 Enterprise
SQL Server: 2012 Enterprise
I was wondering if there is any way all SQL Server error log entries could be automatically written to Windows Event Log.
I have recently uncovered a problem we are experiencing with SQL Server 6.5 Service Pack 4 (Don't ask) and wonder if anyone has seen this before, and maybe has a solution.
When viewing an errorlog either current or historic, via either enterprise manager of xp_readerrlog, occassionaly the network connection is dropped and the process runs out of control. The process is unkillable, as it is in a 'Critical Section' and does not respond to kill. The real problem is that the process is logging millions of errors of the form "...cannot send results to the front end..." at a rate of around 1GB / hour.
Any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers

I was under the impression or i always got following entries in SQL Agent error log when server restart and there are some entries in sql error log as well which confirms that server restarted. but today when i was checking error log i saw same entreis in SQL agent error log but there were no entries in server error log. now i got really confused whether my server is restarted or not........... because if it is restarted then there must be some messages in server error log.....
can some one please let me know when and why following messages appear in SQL Agent Error Log

how to write a error logs in notepad in sql server 2008
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi,
In my case I have to log the errors raised by any task in a package to either windows event log, text file or SQL server. Also I need to send an email notifications to a group of people telling them about the error.
Now can I use SSIS package logging for logging the errors into the required destinations. I mean right clicking on the package and selecting Logging, then adding the required log providers and enabling the events for logging into those. I think I have to upfront select the log providers to log the error, I will not have the liberty to log the error to the destination, the name of which is passed as a variable to the package. This is okay with me though.
Now what will a custom log provider help me to do in this case. Also can I somehow configure my package to call the send mail task everytime an error is raised.
Also, one more option can be developing a package that only does the error handling. It will take in the paramters or the error codes and descriptions, the destination to write to and a flag to send mail or not for that particular type of error.
What do you think? Kindly advise.
Thanks in advance for your help and time.

Hi All! Looking for some help with SQL errors.
We are using SQL 2005. Our server has been failing (service just stops responding) several times a week. We don't have a DB admin, just me, the developer, so please be patient.
I can view all the errors in the existing trace through the Profiler, but not sure how to follow error to query source.
How do you use the trace logs to find the problem query?
I have two significant errors in my logs. One is Hash Warning and the other is Missing Join Operand. I'm not interested in the general causes of these types of errors, that info has been easy to find.
I don't know how to link or otherwise associate a particular instance of an error in the trace logs to the query that caused it to determine the query that is causing the trouble.
The traces are already on the server. I've never created a new trace. I believe they are generated automatically by the server...
Can someone shed some light on how these existing traces are being generated and how I can modify them to include the data I need? When I open an existing trace on the server and view the properties, events tab, there appears to be no way to select the column "TextData" (no checkboxes) for the two errors we are seeing (listed above).
If the TextData column for the errors will allow me to see the offending query, can someone please tell me how to enable that column in my traces that are currently being generated on the server?
Thank you!

I am trying to install the SQL7 server, at the end of the installation before
rebooting the server I got the following error:
"Setup failed to configure the server. Refer to the server error logs and cnfgsvr.out for more information". I have not seen that error before. I cannot install the SQL7 because I always get the same message. Your help would be very appreciate helping me to solve this problem.
Thanks.
I have scheduled a database backup at 9 pm and 5 Transaction Log backups. The transaction Log backups happen at 11 am, 1 pm, 3 pm and 5 pm (device does not get initialized) and one at 11 pm where i initialize the backup device. now i have another server with the same database on it. I restore these backups on to this server by simple copying the files and then doing Restore ...From Device...Add file...option. I am able to restore the DB backup but when i try to restore the log backups it get the error msg -
'Specified file 'G:...' is out of sequence. current time stamp is Feb 9 2000 3:54 pm while dump was from Feb 9 2000 3 pm.'
When i am restoring the logs i start from the 1st backup buyt still i get this error. Can someone pls let me know what the problem is and how to resolve it. Thanks.
What is best practise for what this number should be?
I have seen guidance saying set to a number greater than 25000, but not from any source I particularly know or trust. (I checked SANS, NIST-CIS and the NSA, but I couldn't find anything.
I have seen a couple of cases where an error occurs on a server running SQL Server 2005, and very quickly the log folder at MSSQL.1MSSQLLOG starts filling up with files, and does not stop until the entire hard drive is full (at which time the server stops responding). Is there any way to limit the number of .dmp files that are written?

There is only about 20 MB free. In theory this is howDMM can work, but do people really see it work this way.Second question:I had users complaining about lockups in the app I have to supportthat connects to this dB. At first I thought it was the large use ofmemory, but once I was able to see in Enterprise Manager that therewas process blocking several other processes. EM then locked up and Icouldn't get to the details of what the exact process was that wasdoing the blocking. After restarting SQL services things were fine.When I checked the logs there was nothing there about a hung process.The logs seemed very sparse. Why would there not be anything in thelogs about it. The logs actually seem very thin on any information.Thanks,T.
View 1 Replies View RelatedQ1: Any way to control which db loads when, and perhaps stop this error from happening? Again- when all is said and done, the report server functions, and I am able to access just fine.
Q2: What kind of recovery is being referred to? Given the message type- I assume it's nothing of concern- probably more to do with a system that doesn't run all the time.
Okay- so I get these two event messages each time I boot.
Below are two error message I see daily with each system boot- the services mentioned do "actually" function, and are running- as not 10 seconds after these messages are logged, the successfully loaded messages appear. It's almost as if report services tries to connect before the databases are up and running.
Basically the sequence (today) was:
1. 05:49:01 Failure Audit (MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS)
2. 05:49:01 Error (Report Server Windows Service (SQLEXPRESS)
3. 05:49:02 Recovery is complete. (EventID 3408 MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS)
4. 05:49:06 Starting up database 'ReportServer'
5. 05:49:09 Server Resumed execution (MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS)
I'm assuming based on the events that Report Server Service attempts to connect to the ReportServer database before it's actually started. Doesn't really explain the failure audit-
1. Failure Audit:
Event Type: Failure Audit
Event Source: MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS
Event Category: (4)
Event ID: 18456
Date: 8/9/2007
Time: 05:49:01
User: <MACHINENAME><LOCALUSER>
Computer: <MACHINENAME>
Description:
Login failed for user '<MACHINENAME><LOCALUSER>'.
[CLIENT: <local machine>]
This is almost immediately followed by this (which I consider a no-brainer, considering the above):
2. Error:
Event Type: Error
Event Source: Report Server Windows Service (SQLEXPRESS)
Event Category: Management
Event ID: 107
Date: 8/9/2007
Time: 05:49:01
User: N/A
Computer: <MACHINENAME>
Description:
Report Server Windows Service (SQLEXPRESS) cannot connect to the report server database.
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.

When we backup the transaction log,will it truncate the log or it will grow from there?Truncate log on check point is desabled.
Thanks!
Currently, my client is allowing all the developers to log in as sa and most servers have a NULL sa password. Not a good idea. I am recommending them to move to integrated security with NT groups and to move away from using the sa login altogether. Then to secure the sa login, actually give it a password (something cryptic). I also wanted to set up an alert whenever someone logs in using the sa password. How can that be accomplished? A trigger on the sysprocesses table would work but seems a little risky.
