Error When Issuing BACKUP LOG Mydb With Truncate_only
Feb 26, 2007
Hi,
Following error appears in the SQL Server error log when I execute BACKUP Log db with truncate_only using a stored procedure. The stored proc I am using is as follows:
CREATE procedure spm_tranlog as
declare @DBName as Varchar(120)
select @DBName = DB_name()
dump transaction @DBName with truncate_only
GO
There are data import processes running in the night, before starting the processes we are executing spm_tranlog procedure to clear the transaction logs. The following error appears in log after executing the spm_tranlog:
€śBACKUP failed to complete the command exec spm_tranlog€?
This always happens after weekly server maintenance tasks. The scheduled maintenance tasks I am running are: Index rebuild, truncate log and shrinking database. There were no other processes running during that time when the spm_tranlog prodecure fail.
The Database size is 40GB, Log size is 80MB.
The database is in the simple recovery model.The database is in the simple recovery model.
I am running SQL Server 2000 (SP4) on windows server 2003.
Please help me to resolve this issue.
Thanks,
Roshan.

We have c# application using SQL Server 2000 and 2005. At one place the application has a routine to dump the transaction log which runs for every 30 minutes using the following commands:
BACKUP LOG 'databasename' WITH NO_LOG
BACKUP LOG TempDB WITH NO_LOG.
These commands work fine in SQL 2000 but generate the above error in SQL 2005.
When I looked at Microsoft help forums they recommend using database model to simple instead of full.
But our problem is that most of our customers are still using SQL 2000 and we need that routine to run.
Is there any way to work around for the above command for SQL 2005?
Thanks in advance.

Hello out there,
the documentation of SQL Server says that TRUNCATE_ONLY will be removed in further SQL Server Version.
So what should i use now?
The following Backupplan is used on a Development SQL Server.
The Plan has the following goals:
if there an Hardware Issue i can go Back to the Start of the Day.
If a Programmer or a Programm makes a mistake, i can Rollback to a specific point in Time or Checkpoint that was between the start of the week and the point in time where the Log got backed Up. (Backing up the LOG and make a Restore all Backups)
Heres the Plan:
Do Fullbackup on Sunday Morning. (WITH INIT)
Do Differential Backup every Day, except Sunday, morning.
WITH INIT is used to delete old Backups from the Week before.
Now the Problem:
The Transaction Log growth in time, because it never gets truncated.
so i made the decision to CUT IT before the Full Backup on Sunday morning gets executed.
But if i should not use TRUNCATE_ONLY - what should i use ?
Or do i have a (logical) Error in my Backupplan ?
best regards - Tom

I issued the following statement on my database as my log file showed 100% full.
However after running this command and also running it again after expanding the size
to almost double the value of both my database log and data devices it still shows the log as being 100% full.
DUMP TRANSACTION <database> WITH TRUNCATE_ONLY (and also used the NO_LOG option).
So can anyone tell me whats going wrong here? I should note that I am still able to enter data into the database without
any errors.

I am using the lookup transform with the following settings:
Reference table: Use results of an SQL query. The query retrieves the surrogate key and four business key columns from a dimension table which contains a few thousand rows.
Columns: business keys in the incoming data are mapped to the business keys in the reference table, and the surrogate key is looked up from the reference table.
Advanced: Enable memory restriction is OFF (and the other items on the Advanced tab are greyed out).
I assumed that this means that the lookup transform would cache all of the rows in the SQL query, and then perform the lookups against this cache. This is the behaviour that I saw when I was running the package in my local environment in the BIDS debugger.
However, a colleague was doing some profiling on our production database server, and noticed that the lookup transform is instead issuing a single SQL query for each row of input. Our production ETL server has many GBs of free RAM available (way more than enough to cache the contents of the lookup table in memory), and given that memory restriction is disabled, I don't understand why the lookup transform is behaving in this fashion. Does anyone have an explanation for this? I'm probably misunderstanding a key concept here.
Thanks,
Greg

On the SQL Server the Event Viewer shows the same messages and errors every evening between 22:05:00 and 22:08:00. The following information messages are shown for every database:
"I/O is frozen on database <database name>. No user action is required. However, if I/O is not resumed promptly, you could cancel the backup."
"I/O was resumed on database <database name>. No user action is required."
"Database backed up. Database: <database name>, creation date(time): 2003/04/08(09:13:36), pages dumped: 306, first LSN: 44:148:37, last LSN: 44:165:1, number of dump devices: 1, device information: (FILE=1, TYPE=VIRTUAL_DEVICE: {'{A79410F7-4AC5-47CE-9E9B-F91660F1072B}4'}). This is an informational message only. No user action is required."
After the 3 messages the following error message is shown for every database:
"BACKUP failed to complete the command BACKUP LOG <database name>. Check the backup application log for detailed messages."
I have added a Maintenance Plan but these jobs run after 02:00:00 at night.
Where can I find the command or setup which will backup all databases and log files at 22:00:00 in the evening?

Hi,
I use the Transact-SQL BACKUP statement in Visual Basic to backup my local MSSQL Database. It give me this error
Error 3041
BACKUP failed to complete the command BACKUP DATABASE [BCFPC] to BCFPCBKP
I already created a backup device called BCFPCBKP and it is backup to the disk.
I tried to run the same BACKUP statement in SQL Query Analyzer and it worked fine. I tried to run my VB application in another PC. It worked fine when i use this command remotely. Can anyone tell me what's the problem?
Thanks in advance
regards,

Hello,
I have MS SQL 2005 server with 300+ databases on it. The application is set up that way that it creates a new database as needed (dynamically). Do not ask me why - I hate this design... So, it can create 3-4 databases a day (random time).
I've scheduled full backup of all databases to run once at night, and it runs just fine. Besides that, I have scheduled tran logs backup of all databases to run every hour. This backup fails from time to time with the following error:
Executing the query "BACKUP LOG [survey_p0886464_test] TO DISK = N'D:\backups\log backups\survey_p0886464_test_backup_200708072300.trn' WITH NOFORMAT, NOINIT, NAME = N'survey_p0886464_test_backup_20070807230002', SKIP, REWIND, NOUNLOAD, STATS = 10
" failed with the following error: "BACKUP LOG cannot be performed because there is no current database backup.
BACKUP LOG is terminating abnormally.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.
So, I think what happens is since my full backup of all databases are scheduled to run only once at night, and tran logs every hour, when new database is created during the day, there is no full backup for it, that is why tran logs backup fails. Becuase after the failure, if I run full backup again, then tran log runs just fine afterwards.
I am new to MS SQL Server, I am mostly working with Sybase IQ. Do you know if I can "trigger" full backup every time when new database created to avoid tran lof failure?
Or is it possible to schedule full backup to run if tran log backup fails?
Any advice will be much appreciated.

Hi there
I'm getting this message on my third automated backup of the transaction logs of the day. Both databases are in full recovery mode, both successfully backed up at 01.00. The transaction logs backed up perfectly happily at 01:30 and 05:30, but failed at 09:30.
The only difference between 05:30 and 09:30's backups is that the log files were shrunk at 08:15 (the databases in question are the ones that sit under ILM2007, and keeping the log files small keeps the system running better).
Is it possible that shrinking the log files causes the database to think that there hasn't been a full database backup?
Thanks
Jane

Hi,
Following is my transaction backup command.
"BACKUP LOG prod_cust TO pc_0930_tran WITH INIT"
Usually get this kind of message in the task log file:
"BACKUP LOG prod_cust TO pc_0930_tran WITH INIT"
Processed 173 pages for database 'prod_cust', file 'pcprod_log' on file 1.
BACKUP LOG successfully processed 173 pages in 1.438 seconds
While I got the following message this morning.
"BACKUP LOG prod_cust TO pc_0930_tran WITH INIT"
There is no current database backup. This log backup cannot be used to roll
forward a preceding database backup.
Processed 93 pages for database 'prod_cust', file 'pcprod_log' on file 1.
BACKUP LOG successfully processed 93 pages in 1.367 seconds (0.553 MB/sec).
Does anyone know what the second message mean?

Hi,
Just restored my dev server due to a hardware failure. Replaced motherboard, hds, and cpu. Restored from backup but now my nightly backup fails on one database.
It gives error:
BackupMedium::ReportIoError: write failure on backup device 'G:MY.BAK'. Operating system error 33(The process cannot access the file because another process has locked a portion of the file.).
It successfully does a 3G but then fails on the 13G db. There is only 256Mb of RAM that used to be 384. Could this be the problem? I'm going to put in another stick of 128 tonight but could it be something else?
Any other ideas, has any one seen this before?
All help appreciated.

SQL7, SP3:
I backup the databases (Master, model, msdb, db1, db2) to disk every night on our test system. I then use Veritas Backup exec to backup the os files to tape. I'm using backup devices, I've recreated them several times to try and resolve. Theres' enough disk space as when I run a bu in Query analyser it's fine. But throught EM there's a problem:
I've been receiving an error in the EM job:
------------------------------------
Write on 'db1devicename' failed, status = 112. See the SQL Server error log for more details. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 3202) Backup or restore operation terminating abnormally. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 3013). The step failed.
------------------------------------
Then in the SQL log:
------------------------------------
BackupDiskFile::OpenMedia: Backup device 'E:dbaBackupdb1Full.bak' failed to open. Operating system error = 2(The system cannot find the file specified.).
I confirmed that the device is pointing to thecorrect path, there is space, the db activity is low or no users at the time.
This happens only on one server. Fine on three others with similar setup.
Thanks,

When we are doing our backup of our SQL servor there is one database that won't backup. The user that created it named in Vendor Insurance Compliance with spaces in between the words. The error message that we're getting from the backup is incorrect syntax near 'Insurance' Error number 10007. Is it beacuse of the spaces in between the names? I'm fairly new to SQL server - are you allowed to put blanks in the names?

This has been a funny week. things that were running just fine till last week (and for the last many months) have started giving problems despite that I have not changed any settings.
The problem is that one of my scheduled jobs has started failing. The job used to simply takle a backup of a database. When I tried to probe into it and tried to manually take the backup (via Enterprise Manager..) I get a dialog box with the message:
Cannot open backup device 'D:BackupSales'. Device error or device off-line.See the SQL server error log for more details.
Backup database is terminating abnormally.
Can someone kindly guide me how to solve this.

I have an ASPNET webform to manage sql express 2005 backups.
If i test the application with the debugger and click the button to made a backup, everything works ok and the backup is created inside my web application folder. When i run the web app under IIS, if I try to do the backup i recieve the following error:
Server Error in '/test' Application.

BACKUP DATABASE successfully processed 419 pages in 0.754 seconds (4.543 MB/sec).
I have included the <localmachine>ASPNET user in my database with
schema 'dbo' and 'db_owner' permission. I have also change the security directives of the folder where the backup is going to be saved (write permission,creation,etc..) but it doesn´t work.
It seems as if the ASPNET user have not enough permissions to do the backup operation
Any Idea??
