I have a very strange error (included at the end of message) and it seems to indicate that I have not installed the SQL Server correctly - perhaps the wrong version. I have re-run the configuration a couple of times with no effect. I have not removed the server and re-installed yet. I have Here is my version info:

I am been trying to setup replication on my local Developer edition copy of SQL Server 2005 SP1, but I keep running to into this unable to connect to server error within MS SQL Server Management Studio environment. I tried various connection settings under the configuration manager and things like adding entries to my host file with no luck. Understand that this requires the server name but failing at providing this for the connection to start the wizard. I am missing something simple here?
I have a transactional replication set up from one server to another. From last couple of days i am noticing two distribution agents running for the same subscription in the replication monitor. Before this only one distribution agent was running. Is there any problem having two distribution agents running in parallel for the same subscription on a server?
I am a newbe at MS SQL 2005, so if this has already been answered elsewhere, please just point me in the right direction.
I have successfully used the Import/Export wizard in "execute immediate" mode to import a table from Oracle 10g to MS SQL 2005. Works like a charm, but when I take the saved pacakge (saved as a *.dtsx server side file) - with no changes to the package and execute it from the either the "dos" prompt or from Windows explorer it fails at the login to Oracle step. Yet when I check the package's "Connection Managers" source connection, all the settings, user-ids and passwords look fine. The package does indeed execute, but I receive an ORA-01017:invalid username/password within the trace file of the package, but nothing has been changed from the Import/Export wizard which ran beatifully, thus verifying the appropriate acccess rights to Oracle.
Where is a package visible when running the Data Import/Export wizard, choosing to save a package, and choosing "SQL Server" as the location? When I make an SSIS connection in Management Studio I do not see the package under the "MSDB" node.
On SQL Server 2005 SP2 for Publisher and Distributor on the same instance, my old snapshots are not being cleaned up.
The following error is in the agent history:
Executed as user: DomainMyUser. Could not remove directory '\vmsql01ReplDatauncPublication_TRANSACTIONAL20070702104416'. Check the security context of xp_cmdshell and close other processes that may be accessing the directory. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 20015). The step failed.
xp_cmdshell is enabled and I can run commands like :
exec master.dbo.xp_cmdshell ' md c:TestFolder'
The permissions to the snapshot share and file system are that DomainMyUser has full control.
I have logged into the machine as this user and can remove snapshots so it does not seem to be a permission issue.
On other machines I do not get any errors but the snapshot folder still is not cleaned up.
I've just installed a replication between 2 NT4 servers with SQL 6.5. A task with a 'distribution' type, owner = repl_subscriber, has started on the subscriber side but crashes with an error code S0001 : "There is already an object named 'Customer' in the database". 'Customer' is one of the tables that I want to replicate. Why do I get this error? And how to correct it? Thanks.
I have setup a replication and after 24 hours this are the error messages I have got:Last action; The database 'supersite' on server 'solomon' does not exist. Full error message: Could not locate entry in sysdatabases for database 'superiste'. No entry found with that name.Make sure that the name is entered correctly. Can anyone out there help me out?
Msg 22538, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_MSrepl_check_job_access, Line 155
Only replication jobs or job schedules can be added, modified, dropped or viewed through replication stored procedures.
The rest of the script fails due to this line... Now, I am fair at SQL, but I am no DBA. I did some searching and found one post that seemed to have the same problem, and the gentleman solved it himself, but did not explain how lol.
I've been using replication for a long while now but have never come across this error. It's a basic transactional replication from ServerA to ServerB, where ServerA is also the distributor. Everything had been running fine on it until yesterday, when this error started popping up and no further transactions could be delivered.
After some quick googling I was able to determine that the distribution agent account needed write access to C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server100Com. According to the MSFT article it's because the distribution agent is running under a non-default profile. I didn't change this. However, what I did change around the time that these errors started occurring was the server's Replication Max Test Size setting. It would be far too coincidental for this to not be the cause, but what I don't understand is *why* that would have changed it.
how do I change this? It is definitely not preferable to create temp files in this directory in our environment.
Hi there Apologies if I'm in the wrong post. I have a strange problem. I installed Sql Express Toolkit with the sole purpose to offer the import/export functionality in the Microsoft SQL Server90DTSBinn folder. After installation I did a quick test to make sure it works and it did. Suddenly now I get an error when I run the wizard file saying that it is not a valid win 32 application. I have a clean Windows XP S2 installation and definitly no virussus/worms etc. I have a simmilar problem when I try to run ASP.Net web starter kit files (.vss or something like that...) PLEASE help me!
. I get following message when the scheduled DTS job starts. ( it runs fine interactively)....
*** I've read other messages about SQLServiceAgent 'permissions' but how do you setup these permissions..

I am trying to perform DTS from a 7.0 server to a 6.5 server. But for one of the 6.5 servers, I am getting the following DTS Wizard error:
Error Source: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server
Error Description: The catalog storedprocedures installed on server VACTBETA4 are version 6.50.193;version 07.00.0330 or later is required to support IDBSchemaRowset.Please contact your systemadmnistrator.
It is a production server and needs to be fixed. Help appreciated.
I am trying to export data from SQL Server to a Visual FoxPro database using the DTS export wizard and I get the same error message every time. After I select a destination (Microsoft Visual FoxPro Driver) and select a DSN is get a DTSA wizard error. It says:

I'm just trying to use the Maintenance Wizard for the first time, but the SQL Server Management Studio shows me an error message about 'Agent XPs' is not running on my server; and I should activate it through 'sp_configure'?
I've tried to understand 'sp_configure' by searching it on MS TechNet, etc. But of course, because I'm not a SQL Server expert user; I don't even know how to use 'sp_configure' at all....
Anyone know how to work this thing around? Appreciate all the help...
PS: I almost forgot to mention, that I'm using MS Windows Small Business Server R2 2003 with SQL Server 2005 Workgroup Edition.
I created a template with a Logo, Header data and Footer data. I then copied the report to the template directory. and renamed it report.rdl (replacing the default report that was there).
C:Program FilesMicrosoft Visual Studio 8Common7IDEPrivateAssembliesProjectItemsReportProject
When I create a report using the report wizard I get the following error: Deserialization failed: The report definition element 'Report' contains more than one child element of type 'Language' at line 362, position 4. Line 362, position 4.
Edit code
The report works just fine when I created it and did a preview.
I was hoping to create a report template that I could substitute for the default report (report.rdl) so that when using the wizard the report would be created with logos, headers and footers already there.
If I put the original report back the report wizard works just fine.
Am I doing something wrong or is this not allowed.
I'm using SQL Server 2005 Enterprise x64 and when attempting to migrate a DTS from our SQL Server 2000 Standard x86 server I received the following error message:
DTS Migration Wizard Error
Could not load file or assembly 'Microsoft.SqlServer.Exec80PackageTask, Version=9.0.242.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89845dcd8080cc91' or one of it's dependencies. The system cannot find the file specified.
Click Abort to stop the migration of the current package.
Click Retry to retry the operation.
Click Skip to skip the migration of the current task and continue to the next task.
From the error message, it would appear something did not install or register correctly. Any idea on what is missing and how I can fix it?

Hi,I always use the following sql statement to check whether an email address exists in a database. With my latest project I tried to do this within the TableAdapter Configuration Wizard and it gave me an error: IF NOT EXISTS (SELECT Email FROM tblEmailList WHERE Email=@Email) BEGIN INSERT INTO tblEmailList (Email, DateRegistered) VALUES (@Email, @DateReg) SELECT 1 AS RESULT END ELSE BEGIN SELECT 0 AS RESULT END first it gave an error saying I must declare the variables @Email and @DateReg then when I removed the part of insert and just wanted to check the email address existence it gave me this error:The Compound statement SQL construct or statement is not supportedAny idea anyone?

When I try to run the ITW to increase performance I get this error in the event viewer. Earlier I have used the ITW with success but now I dont get any more index recommendations, just this error. Do you know what it means :
"The description for Event ID ( 4 ) in Source ( ITW ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: Error in Parsing Event: execute sp_Sys'.
Hi. I've created a number of packages in SSIS which just make temp tables out of views. I did them with the "Optimize for many tables" and "Run in transaction" boxes checked.
Now I'm trying to port them over to another database on another server. I'm first going through the Package Configuration Wizard. When I try to finish the wizard I get a error with the following message:

I don't know how to resolve it. Anyone?
One way to deal with this particular issue would be just to recreate the SSIS package on the other server. The issue with this is I want to be positive which view I'm making a copy of and I'm not currently. Since the Import/Export has the transaction setting checked, I can't seem to determine what the source was. Help?
In Visual Studion I invoke the wizard, indicate the source for the DTS packages and pick a folder for the migrated package but I don't get a list of my source packages. Instead, I get the error message, 'index out of range, must be non negative, parameter name index(mscorlib)'.
Has anyone ever gotten this error. What does it mean and how can I fix it?
