Hi,I want to store the SQL Server Agent logs into a table. I was able toread SQL server errorlogs using sp_readerrorlog and store the data intoa table successfully.I want to do the same for SQL Agent logs. options?Thanks in advanceThyagu.
when I run a package from a command window using dtexec, the job immediately says success. DTExec: The package execution returned DTSER_SUCCESS (0). Started: 3:37:41 PM Finished: 3:37:43 PM Elapsed: 2.719 seconds
However the Job is still in th agent and the status is executing. The implications of this are not good. Is this how the sql server agent job task is supposed to work by design.
We just moved source server to newer, bigger box ... Windows 2003 and Active Directory ... Snapshot agent worked but distribution failed ... Same login as on older machine, login is sysadm, used DCOMCNFG to allow ability to launch process ... What are we missing?
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.
I've got a package which reads a text file into a table and updates another. I set up configurations so that I could import it into the SSIS store on both my dev and live servers. Now, I'm getting this error. I tried removing the configs and am still getting it.
I've been through each step and everything looks okay. Does anyone have any idea (a) what's wrong, (b) how to localise the error or (c) get any additional information? Or do I just have to recreate the package from scratch?

In Enterprise Manager, Management and then SQL Server Logs, when I clicked on Current or Archive#1 or 2 etc, nothing happens. This has been going on for the past 3 weeks does any one knows what is causing such problems?
I'm very novice when it comes to SQL Server Administration.
I have been asked if the SQL Server Log can trace information on whether data supplied to an individual has been tampered with, or if it is the full data set provided.
Apologies for this vague description, but that is what I have to go on also.
I am trying to find an article which details what the purpose of SQL Server logs are and if I can extract this sort of information from them.
Any idea if the SQL server log can provide tracing/editing/exporting information?
We are using sql server 2000. I checked the sql server logs and noticed that everytime a user logs into sql an error log gets created stating, "starting up database 'CORT'". This db has nothing to do with users logging in as far as I can tell. What can check to find out what's causing this error log?
I have a question that I hope someone can help with. I am attempting to load my IIS logs into SQL Server using DTS. I have done this sucessfully by manually specifying the source file. I would like to automate this process but, I have been unable to figure out how to do this. The IIS logs changes daily and the file name changes. How do I configure DTS to grab the log for the previous day?
I believe that the solution is to first copy the log to an alternate location then let DTS do it's thing. How do I programatically accomplish this ?
I've been digging for a while to try to find something, even had a consultant looking for me, but came up empty haned.
What I want to do is this:
I activated the Security Audit level for all logins. I want to be able to report last login date for every user from the log, and all login events for SA or any other defined super users.
Is it possible to Query the SQL Server Logs to report this information?
This is for proposed Sarbox Database Security settings.
I recently performed an SQL server 2000 installation. Other thanplacing the program files on C: and data on D:, I saw no option toinstall transaction logs in an alternate location.What is the best practice with SQL server 2000 for location oftransaction logs? I remember that Microsoft used to take the positionthat transaction logs should be placed on their own FAT partition.
I have SQL Server 2005 Express on a Windows XP SP2 machine. Everything works fine and I have several dbs running. How ever I was wanting to optimize some programs and needed to watch the server and see what it is processing. I log into SQL Management Studio Express and when I go to Management->Server Logs I see the logs and the Activity Monitor. If I right click on the log all I see is Refresh. If I doule click nothing happens. I can view the Activity Monitor and the processes going.
I am sure it is a permission thing or something along those lines. I can not for the life of me figure it and have spent a couple days on google and these forums. I have tried with the SA, my defined users, and the local windows administrator. Is log viewing not allowed in SQL Server Express?
I understand that there is a SQL Server Logs section in Enterprise Manager 2000 where we can view SQL Server activity. Is it possible that we can get those logs by using query? I had been searching over the Internet, system databases, system SP and still have no idea how to achieve it.
how i can clear sql server logs by run xp_cmdshell stored procedure. (my user in sql server is a admin). i don't want use enterprise manager . i want write a query and use at xp_cmdshell . befor thx.
Unable to view the server logs via EM. sp_cycle_errorlog tried, no help. The physical errorlog file is in c:mssql7log. A server reboot doesn't help either.
Hi, I have an issue with an application, and i want to know what sql queries are done by this application. So i need to read the .ldf file, i have do some search on google, but i find nothing thant can be relevant.
I am trying to setup 2 SQL servers (ver 6.5) - A live server and a standby server. The plan is to have regular transaction logs dumps from the Live server databases to the standby server and then have these logs automatically applied.
I have managed to get the logs dumping automatically but when I tried to apply them I keep getting synchronisation/sequence errors.
Has anyone done/tried anything similar. Any advice on this would be very useful.
Thanks Samir
P.S I can't do this via replications as most tables in the database do not have primary keys.
Dear All, We have recently moved our NT boxes with SQL Server to a new computer room 10 minutes walk away. Is it possible to examine the NT error logs from a SQL Server client using perhaps an xp command?
It takes me a long time to view in EM under Mangement/SQL Server Logs/current file. Is there a way I can shorten that file so it won't take so long to view the current file?
I was wondering how can I read log file in a sql sever 2k5 database?? I mean, I want to check out every query since the selects until those that change server configuration, How can I do it without needing install a third-party software?? Keep in mynd that I need to know: the query (e.g.elect * from table_name) , source , date , application.
I'm a developer and mostly develop Service Broker applications for my company. I do have logging for my application but unforseen errors will normally show up in the SQL Server System Logs. What would be a good way to give a developer access to read the SQL Server logs without giving away the keys to kingdom. Would that be through xp_readerrorlog or is there a better way of accomplishing this?
I have inhereted this application and I am a newbee at asp.net. Fisrt my apologies for posting such a large amount, I just wanted to give you all the information that I possibly can.

The process of my application works as follows. 1)Login.aspx submits the username and password. It is linked to Login.aspx.vb with the following statement <%@ Page Language="vb" AutoEventWireup="false" Codebehind="Login.aspx.vb" Inherits="PPASA.Login"%> 2)In Login.aspx.vb (below) has a call to PPASA.vb with the following statement Call OpenCloseDB(True).
Public Class Login Inherits System.Web.UI.Page

3)PPASA.vb then creates the connection to the Database. PPASA.vb looks like this.
Module PPASA
Public cnn As New ADODB.Connection
Public Sub OpenCloseDB(ByVal Connect As Boolean)
If Connect = True Then If cnn.State = 0 Then cnn.Open("Description=PPASA;DRIVER=SQL Server;SERVER=THE-ONESERVERA;UID=sa;PWD=123;APP=Microsoft Data Access Components;DATABASE=PPASA") End If Else If Connect = False Then If cnn.State = 1 Then cnn.Close() End If End If End Sub
Public Function CheckSecurity(ByVal Actual As Integer, ByVal Required As Integer) As Boolean If Actual >= Required Then CheckSecurity = True Else CheckSecurity = False End If End Function End Module
4)After I submit Login.aspx the application boms and gives me the "Specified SQL server not found".
Extra Info:
The Sql server is up and running. I have tested it by connecting with 2 test connection files index.asp and index2 .aspx. Here are the files. The files also return results from the pubs db.
index.asp
<% Set conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") strConn="DRIVER={SQL Server};SERVER=THE-ONESERVERA;UID=sa;PWD=123;DATABASE=pubs"
conn.open strConn
sql = "SELECT * from authors" set rs = conn.Execute(sql) if not rs.EOF then while not rs.EOF lastname = rs("au_lname") firstname = rs("au_fname") response.write "LASTNAME :: " & lastname & " \// FIRSTNAME :: " & firstname & "<br>" rs.movenext wend end if conn.Close() Set conn = Nothing %>
and index2.aspx
<%@ Page aspcompat=true %> <% Dim objConn Dim strConn Dim objRs Dim objCmd Dim objField
If Not objRs.EOF then Do While Not objRs.EOF response.write ("VALUES :: ") For Each objField In objRs.Fields Response.Write (" " & objField.value & " \// ") Next response.write ("<br>") objRs.movenext Loop End if
objConn.Close() %>
There are also the following files in the bin directory. Interop.ADOR.dll Interop.MSChart20Lib.dll Interop.Scripting.dll PPASA.dll utCharting.dll
So my question is this, why do I get the error "Specified SQL server not found", when I dont get the error with the test connection files.? Do I have to do anything with the .dll file in the bin directory, like register them or something? How does the Login.aspx.vb file call the PPASA.vb file when I see no reference to PPASA.vb in the Login.aspx.vb file? I would appreciate any help or suggestions. Thanks
I have 2 server 2003 boxes one has sql 2000 and the other has IIS. I can pull up my pages on the iis server but as soon as my app tries to access the sql server I get cannot find server. All my settings are correct in the web.config file. I do not have this problem with the same setup on server 2000 boxes. Also active dir is not set up on the 2000 or 2003 boxes. Can someone please help. thanx weisenbr
I am trying to connect to my SQL Server through my ASP.NET webpages. My problem is that, no matter what I do, it always says that the server is not found. I know the IP address of my server, and this IP address works from other computers within my network, just not mine.
I have no idea what it could be. If anyone knows, any help would be greatly appriciated.
