Can someone provide some troubleshooting for the following error I have during the replication setup on SQL 2005??
Thanks,

A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the pre-login handshake. 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: Named Pipes Provider, error: 0 - No process is on the other end of the pipe.) (.Net SqlClient Data Provider)

I'm getting this, after upgrading from 2000 to 2005.Replication-Replication Distribution Subsystem: agent (null) failed.The subscription to publication '(null)' has expired or does notexist.The only suggestions I've seen are to dump all subscriptions. Sincewe have several dozen publications to several servers, is there adecent way to script it all out, if that's the only suggestion?Thanks in advance.
I am trying to crate a replication on my cluster database. I create the replication for one table and it works fine but when i try to create the replication for another table and try to run the status of the snapshot agent i receive and error saying TCP Provider: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host
I try to run it again but then i receive the following errir Failed to read prelogin response.
Can somebody tell me why is this happenning and how can i fixed
I have been attempting to create a snapshot of a database. Just install a SQL2005 cluster. The snapshot appears to create ok, but when I view snapshot agent status I get the following error which I have not been able to figure out:
Unable to start execution of step 2 (reason: Error authenticating proxy ohaevservices, system error: Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password.). The step failed.
I am using snapshot replication to copy data from one database to another. I truncate the destination table first. The publisher and the subscriber are different databases on the same server. The data turns into 1 unrecognizable row.
Here is what the source table looks like: displayTypeID, displayType 1, Title List Formats 2, Title Details 3, Title List Export 4, Pricing Notes 5, clone Mask 001 6, clone Mask 002 7, clone Mask 004 8, clone Mask 008 9, hide From Admin 10, not Common Attr 11, Insert Title 12, title Types
The resulting data looks like this: DisplayType, displayTypeId , 1660953600 I see no errors in replication and nothing in the source table looks like bad data that could cause such a malady. I see the problem on two different servers now and identified the source of the problem, the column order is reversed in the source and destination tables. The data types do not even match so I would at the very least expect an error from bcp.
I have setup merge replication which successfully synchronizes with a group of desktop users using SQL Compact Edition.
However now I have setup Article Filters and when I attempt to regenerate the snapshot I get the following error:
Invalid column name 'rowguid'.
Failed to generate merge replication stored procedures for article 'AssignedCriteria'.
When I look at publication properties at the Articles page.. All my tables have the rowguid uniqueidentifier successfully added to tables and selected as a compulsory published column, apart from the table above "AssignedCriteria".. Even when I attempt to select this column in the article properties page and press ok, when I come back it is deselected again. ( The Rowguid column is however physically added to the table)
I have scripted the publication SQL and then totally reinstalled from scratch, including the database but for some reason it doesn't like this table. I remove the article filters, but still this "rowguid" is never "selected" in article properties.
We are using Uniqueidentifiers in other columns as well for historical reasons, but this doesn't appear to be a problem in other tables..
suggested that this problem could be circumvented by getting the replication object early and then continuously using the same object for subsequent replications.
I did this and it works a lot better now but ever so often I get another error which is
Native Error 28559 SQL Mobile encountered problems when opening the database
My only option at this point is to stop and start the application which cures the problem.
Hello,I'm getting the following error message when I try add a row using aStored Procedure."The identity range managed by replication is full and must be updatedby a replication agent".I read up on the subject and have tried the following solutionsaccording to MSDN without any luck.(http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/304706 )sp_adjustpublisheridentityrange (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa239401(SQL.80).aspx ) has no effectFor Testing:I've reloaded everything from scratch, created the pulications from byrunning the sql scripts generated,created replication snapshots andstarted the agents.I've checked the current Identity values in the Agent Table:DBCC CHECKIDENT ('Agent', NORESEED)Checking identity information: current identity value '18606', currentcolumn value '18606'.I check the Table to make sure there will be no conflicts with theprimary key:SELECT AgentID FROM Agent ORDER BY AgentID DESC18603 is the largest AgentID in the table.Using the Table Article Properties in the Publications PropertiesDialog, I can see values of:Range Size at Publisher: 100,000Range Size at Subscribers: 100New range @ percentage: 80In my mind this means that the Publisher will assign a new range whenthe Current Indentity value goes over 80,000?The Identity range for this table cannot be exhausted!

We have a large number of clients attempting to replicate two publications on 2005 Express databases (2 publications subscribed to the one subscriber database) with our 2005 Server (9.00.3042.00 SP2 Standard Edition) and experiencing two significant problems:
1) Users experience the following message:
The Merge Agent failed after detecting that retention-based metadata cleanup has deleted metadata at the Subscriber for changes not yet sent to the Publisher. You must reinitialize the subscription (without upload).
This problem should not apparently occur with SQL Server 2005 (or 2005 Express) instances with SP2 applied. All clients experiencing this problem have SP2 installed as does our Server and the retention period is 30 days. The subscribers have been replicating well under that.
2) Replications never succeed after appearing to replicate/loop around for hours
This issue is the most critical as we have clients who have been installed and re-installed with new instances of SQL Server 2005 Express, new empty databases (on subscriber before snapshot extraction), and using fresh snapshots (less than an few hours old) which cannot successfully replicate.
Interestingly there is at least 1 instance where several computers are subscribed and successfully replicating the same database as another where replication refuses to succeed.
To test we have taken a republished database from another 2005 Server which is working fine and restored it to the same server as the one holding the database with which we are experiencing problems and subscribed to it. This test worked fine and replication of both publications went through fast and repeatedly without showing any signs of problem.
This indicates that the problem is perhaps data related as it appears localised to that database.
Below are two screenshots which may assist.
Screenshot 1 Shows that on the server side the replication attempts look like they are succeeding despite the fact that the subscriber end does not indicate success. Also the history indicates the the subscription has spent all it's time initialising and not merging any changes.
Screenshot 2 Shows a rogue process which has appears on many of the problem child subscribers. It shows a process running with no end time even though the job indicates failure in the message and even though other replication attempts appear to have succeeded after it. This process stays in the history showing that it is running even when I can find no corresponding process for it.
Can anyone suggest a further course of action/further testing/further information required which may assist?
This is extremely urgent and any assistance would be greatly appreciated!
Is there any way to measure bandwith usage during merge replication between sql server 2005 and sql server mobile 2005 running on a cradled wm5 mobile device.
Attaching the windows performance monitor to the network connection established over usb would work although I was wondering if there was something specific for this case integrated into Sql server 2005 / sql server mobile 2005 / Sql server management studio / third party tools that i could use ?
I have a problem when i start sincronyzing with the emulator of MSVS2005 to SQL2005 in Windows Vista. I have the same program in the emulator, but sincronyzing with windows XP Pro and no problem...

I have created a merge replication correctlly( I suppose, there were no errros) Please help
If we changed the sort order from BIN to BIN2 but kept everything else the same will it have any effect on replication? So in SQL 2005 if I were to change my default collation from Latin1_General_Bin to Latin1_General_Bin2, would that cause replication to break? I suspect that it will not be an issue since it is just sort order that is changing and the code page stays the same.
BTW, this is transactional replication. Sorry, I left that out of my original post.
I am having trouble with getting Merge Replication up with a new SQL 2005 x64 Server. I already have it running smoothly with SQL 2005 Mobile and SQL 2000, but I want to migrate the backend to SQL 2005.
There is a front end server running IIS 6.0 on Windows 2003 x86 Standard (Server A) with SSL required and Basic Authentication set as the only authentication method (default Domain and Realm are also set). The backend server is running SQL 2005 x64 Standard on Windows 2003 x64 Standard (Server B). The mobile devices are running Windows Mobile 5.0 with SQL 2005 Mobile (Client).
From both a standard Windows XP workstation (IE) and the Client (PIE) I can browse to the HTTPS site on port 444 for the sqlcesa30.dll on Server A and get a response in normal and ?diag modes. The ?diag gives success in all but the 8.0 Database Reconciler (I didn't install the SQL 2000 replication components on Server A, my understanding is they should not be needed). Sql Server Module Versions are as follows: sqloledb.dll - 2000.86.1830.0, 9.0 replrec.dll - 2005.90.1399.0, 9.0 replprov.dll - 2005.90.1399.0, 9.0 msgprox.dll - 2005.90.1399.0.
The publication on Server B is enabled for Web Synchronization and the Snapshop Agent has run. There are no reported errors on that side.
Since I ran into issues getting synchronization to run I have opened up permissions fairly wide in this test environment. The PAL and the Database both have the user I am attempting to sync with listed (I am using the Administrator account in the test domain). I have opened full rights on the Snapshot share on Server B to Everyone (both NTFS ACL on the directory and the Share permissions). The virtual directory on Server A containing the sqlcesa30.dll has also been opened very wide, and the Application Pool does have access to it.
The Client is running a custom C#.NET 2005 application. With the exception of changes to set the application to sync with the Server A/B duo instead of the production servers, this application is identical to the code currently being used in production with SQL 2000 Standard.
The persistent error that I am getting from the Client being thrown by SQL 2005 Mobile when I attempt to sync is "An instance of the SQL Server Reconciler error object cannot be created. Try reinstalling the replication components."
SQL 2005 Mobile components on Server A are set to Logging Level 3 but not returning any errors that I can see to troubleshoot with. All replication components appear to be installed and operational, although I have re-installed them.
Besides the obvious question of how to solve the error listed above, is there an issue with am x85 front end IIS 6.0 server talking to an x64 back end SQL 2005 server for merge replication over HTTPS with Windows Mobile 5.0 clients running SQL 2005 Mobile?
Based on everything I have read off the MSDN Forums, MSDN articles, BOL, log files, and web searches it seems like I should have an operational synching topology, however clearly I have missed something because I have yet to get a successful subscription through to the publication.
Any insight/enlightenment would be greatly appreciated, this seems to be a very narrow and specific area of replication and mobility and information is relatively sparse from my experience so far.
I'm currently receiving the following error message whilst attempting to install SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition on Windows Server 2003 (32 Bit): Error 29528.

You can ignore this and it will complete the installation, but subsequently trying to patch with SP2 will fail on the same sections - Hotfix.exe crashes whilst attempting to patch Database Services, Integration Services and Client Components (3 separate crashes).
I've removed SQL Server 2005 elements and tried to re-install, but it's not improved the situation.
When creating a replication publisher in the live server enviroment, the repicaltion displays an error saying Could not obatin information about Windows NT group/user '........', error code 0x6e. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 15404)
When looking at the replication server, the error report says that the user is a System administrator on the Live Server but they do not exist on the replication server.
We have upgraded our distribution servers to SQL Server 2005 from 2000 2 days ago. All our replication is transactional. Some replication is running through without any hassles, but others are just not doing anything. The logreader agent is running and succeeding, but not bringing any transacions through to the distribution, even though I can see there is about 9 hours worth of data sitting in on the publication that needs to be replicated. The tables on the publisher is still marked for replication, but when I run MSlogreader_history for the specific agent, it gives me the message: "Executed as user: DOMAINSERVICEACCOUNT. The step succeeded.", but it delivers no transactions and commands. It has been doing this for the last 8 hours.
What can I possibly still check to see what the problem is? Any suggestions are MORE that welcome! P.S. Our replication has been running very stable in 2000 for the last 3 years and I have never come accross this before.
We are having a symmetry issue between rep over a LAN and over the WAN. I want to know the roll of the MSDTC and possible two-phase commits (2PC) that may be occurring with certain subscription types. It didn't seem the replication stream scales well over the WAN and 2PC are not the thing to do over longer distances due to the excessive amount of handshaking needed in 2PCs (reflectivity issues).
If 2PCs and the MSDTC are used, are certain setups or types of replication in SQL 2005 available that would be more efficient over a long distance WAN? Can 2PCs be avoided?
The setup that was built with the issues is not a typically built replication topology (by my book). By my own rule, I never place the distributor on the publisher, ever. Apparently, when setup this way, I didn't have any issue replicating over a similar WAN. Does the distributor work differently when running on a dedicated server?
What's the best replication topology when attempting to replicate over a long distance WAN?
I needed a ROM on a SQL 2005 replication requirement. Would really appreciate any help on this.
We have a SQL 2005 database with about 4 GB data, 46 tables to be replicated. For users to run queries and generate reports, we need a replica of this database. We are thinking of using replication wizard to generate a separate instance of the database on a different box. Also thinking that the replication wizard could be used here.
Based on this information would it be possible to get a ROM estimate for the Development tasks involved in setting up the replication?
i am getting error in replication minitor distributor must be running in per seat (named user) licensing mode . So it is not able to replicate data. has any one came across this type of error thanks from nirmal.
Hi, we had an issue with our data warehouse where we get the following error.
exec dbo.sp_table_validation @table = 'tabelname', @expected_rowcount = 1214384, @rowcount_only = 1, @full_or_fast = 2, @shutdown_agent = 0, @owner = 'dbo' General network error. Check your network documentation. Communication link failure
We found that this procedure was causing blocking on the DB server which killed replication. Does anyone know how this procedure is called or what calls it? I haven’t found any information on it except what BOL has.
I have created replication between 2 servers. Publication and distribution servers are the same. The distribution tasks finishes with the following error :

I have tried to install replication.The publication/distribution server has properly installed but the subscriber server side i am getting two error messages from the menu of SQL enterprises manager remote servers... topic
what will do ? how to troubleshot the error msg 229.how will trap the error msg. in help,and i have checked the client side topolozy its properly connected but the server side only having the problem. If any one know about this could you help me...
I have a database thats got sql as the engine and access 2000 for the client side.Now my problem is every time I edit a record this "Write Conflict" comes up. I did some investigating and I found out its due to a REPLICATIONCONFLICT ERROR.

and
"SQL server enterprise manager couldn not configure 'PC-...' as the distributor for 'PC-...'

Hello, I have 2BD which is installed on 2 serv #, they have same architecture (the same table, relation diagrams) I need 2réplications: sens1=> BD1 (table1, table2) to BD2 (table1, table2) sens2=> BD2 (table3, table4) to BD1 (table3, table4)
problem: when I want to retort one or 2 table of the BD1=>BD2 The diagram that I had on BD2 is crushed in other words the whole of the relation are re-initialized. I found an explanation: when I notch (yes to initialize diagram and data) in the assistant of extraction of subscription the problem is to announce but the replication that passes but not as it is needed, if not =>when I notch (Not the subscriber has already of the diagram and the data) another message is announced “Impossible to find the procedure stored “sp_MSupd_table1”. “is the replication is blocked, ideas??? thank you in advance
I have a SQL server which has the databases installed with transactional replciation enabled. I got an error which is mentioned below in my distribution agent history :-
Violation of PRIMARY KEY constraint 'PK__@snapshot_seqnos__3647D946'. Cannot insert duplicate key in object '#3553B50D'.
I am doing Transactional Replication I am bring 8 tables from one server to another. ALL the tables are working fine means its creating snapshot in snapshot folder except one table which brings 12 millions records. I am getting Error in Snapshot Agent : the Agent Is in Suspect Mode, No response within last 10 minutes.
