Problem: I have a user who wants to remove table, but when she tries to remove it ( drop the table), she gets an error:
===========================================================
MSG 3724, Level 16, State 2, Line 6: Cannot drop the table, 'dbo.<table name>' because it is being used for replication.
MSG 2714, Level 16, State 6, Line 2
There is already an object named '<table name>' in the database.
============================================================
To investigate, I saw the following:
In the SSMS---> Replcation---> Local Publication--> [XYZ].Pub_XYZ
[SERVER Name].[XYZ_Replication]
Local Subscriptions:
[Reference DB].[ServerInstance].[Instance Name]:ABC.ABC_TO_XYZ.Reference DB).
How do I remove that table? Do I need to edit Replication? How? Which one?
We are using SQl-2000 Sp2 clustured on two compaq servers We have to modify our database shema every month. We are using sp_repladdcolum and sp_repldropcolum to modify table without snapshot.
Owever I would like to add/delete entire table in shema database without using snapshot ?
Hi, all. I have two server(Svr01, Svr02) that are replicated each other (Merge replication). Svr01 must be Publisher distributor.. but, by mistake Svr02 is set to distributor, publisher. (Publisher/distributor are on the same comp..)
I want to fix this.. How?
I think I have to remove replication on both side and Reset from the first. but, I don't know how to remove replication either..
I had a HDD failure that caused the database to become SUSPECT. Thats ok we have backups to fall back on. Restoring the database failed because the database is used for repliacation, the database status was set to LOADING (in middle of restore). Because of this status I am unable to remove the repliaction to allow the database restore.
Whats a way to change the database status from loading? Or is there any way of removing it completely and starting again from a backup? Can I force repliaction to be removed?
Thanks for taking the time to look at my problem, all help and suggestions are much appreciated.
I try to remove a replication with from my MS SQL 2000
DECLARE @publication AS sysname DECLARE @publicationDB AS sysname SET @publication = N'MyDB_merge' SET @publicationDB = N'MyDB' -- Remove the merge publication. USE [MyDB] EXEC sp_dropmergepublication @publication = @publication; -- Remove replication objects from the database. USE master EXEC sp_replicationdboption @dbname = @publicationDB, @optname = N'merge publish', @value = N'false' GO
but seems to do nothing, how many time cost this operation? MSSQL search something ?
There is a solution for remove rapidly a replication from my database.
Hi I have a problem. I have a replicated database. Now I have a couple of tables within the database where I delete the content row by row and caluted the new record and insert them. Now when I do this on the development system that is unreplicate it is fine. However on production that is replicated I get this error:
System.Web.HttpUnhandledException: Exception of type System.Web.HttpUnhandledException was thrown. ---> System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: INSERT statement conflicted with COLUMN FOREIGN KEY constraint 'FK_VARLISTS_USERVARLISTS'. The conflict occurred in database 'BHP', table 'USERVARLISTS', column 'AutoID'. INSERT statement conflicted with COLUMN FOREIGN KEY constraint 'FK_VARLISTS_USERVARLISTS'. The conflict occurred in database 'BHP', table 'USERVARLISTS', column 'AutoID'. INSERT statement conflicted with COLUMN FOREIGN KEY constraint 'FK_VARLISTS_USERVARLISTS'. The conflict occurred in database 'BHP', table 'USERVARLISTS', column 'AutoID'.
Now I persume this is caused by the foreign key being contrained by the replicated database. I had though about unticking the box 'Enforce Relationship for replication' but I am not sure what problems this may cause.
Woudl this fix my problem? If not do you have any idea what would.
One of our users tried to set replication solution in a sqlserver (the idea was given up). SQL Server added in each table a column related to replication. We want to remove theses columns and I used the following script :
select 'ALTER TABLE dbo.'+object_name(id)+' DROP CONSTRAINT '+object_name(constid)+' GO' +'ALTER TABLE dbo.'+object_name(id)+' DROP COLUMN '+'msrepl_tran_version GO' from sysconstraints where object_name(constid) like '%msrep%'
Question: 1. I want to know how to introduce a carraige return in order to have some thing like this :
... ALTER TABLE dbo.T_CommandCopyFile DROP CONSTRAINT DF__T_Command__msrep__44AB0736 GO ALTER TABLE dbo.T_CommandCopyFile DROP COLUMN msrepl_tran_version ... 2. Is there any other solution to do this more simply ?
Windows 2012 R2, SQL 2012 (Primary Replica) SQL 2012 (Seondary Replica) SQL 2012 (Secondary Replica over WAN site)
There are database replicating on three SQL servers. WAN line is having performance issue because of limited bandwidth I have to remove SQL secondary replica over WAN site temporarily and add it again later when the WAN line is upgraded with between bandwidth What is the best practice to remove secondary replica and replicating database and add later from SQL management studio without interruptions on databases?
After I setup the merge replication in SQL SERVER 7.0, there is a rowguid column (datatype uniqueidentifier) inserted into each table in the both the source and destination database.
I need to get rid of the rowguid column in all tables. I deleted the replication, but the column still existed.
Is there an easy way to get rid of all the rowguid column in the database? Thanks for your reponse in advanced.
Hi all, I'm a rather newbie, not only to this forum but also to sql server having a question to the following issue: Is it possible to drop/remove/delete the "orphan" of a merge subscription on one instance of sql server without having the (former) distributor/publisher (on other instance) available? The background is: I had a small replication infrastructure with two instances (on two machines), one the publisher and distributor, the other the subscriber. Now it happened that the publisher/distributor machine was completely set up new without having the replication dropped in advance, what remained on the subscriber is now a database with all the merge/replication tables and the guid columns in the user tables. Moreover this, an entry remained in the subscription saying that a subscription with the former publisher exists...
Can I remove these "orphans" without having to setup the instance again?
I have found some articles with no publication in our transactional replication.
For example, running this:
select p.publication, a.publication_id, a.article from dbo.MSArticles as a left outer join dbo.MSpublications as p on a.publication_id = p.publication_id
shows this:
NULL1org_Community NULL3org_Community Purchasing to EDW5org_Community NULL1org_Division NULL3org_Division Purchasing to EDW5org_Division
How can I get rid of the articles that are not part of a publication?
I can't use sp_droparticle because it requires a publication which these articles do not have.
I need a SSIS Package that compares the two tables and removes the rows in the first table with keys that do not exist in the second table. For example....
I have a table of returns based on returnID. In another table I have returnErrors that are based on returnID as well. I want a package that will uses my returns table as a source and compares that dataset to the dataset of the returnError and remove or spilt the data so that my remaining dataset only has returns that have returnErrors. I can do this in T-SQL, but I am looking for a SSIS solution that uses the conditional split transformation or some other transformation(s) combinations.
I have small table that has been corrupted. I'm getting the following error when running a simple select statement: "could not open FCB for invalid file ID 0 in database 'data_base_name'. Table or database may be corrupt. connection broken."
I have already created a new table, but I have been unsuccessful at removing the corrupted table. Does anyone know the steps to go about removing this table? And, if anyone has seen this type of error before, why did it occur? Is it a bug with microsoft SQL7? Any info would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

I have uninstalled the CTP version of the SQL Server express so that I can install the released version but CTP version is still listed in the add/remove program list but without the change/remove button. I have been to different sites to find information on cleaning this up and I have ran all the uninstall tool I can find but the problem still prevails. I cannot install the released version without completely getting rid of the CTP version. Please help anyone.

I am working SQL Server 2005 and One Table Which contain only one column without primary keyNow I want to remove all duplicate value from that table with only single query
We have a table that we BCP into, the data is then processed and inserted into its appropriate table. Then the table or its data needs to be removed. This seems to be a very slow operation to remove the table or table data. I have tried drop table, and truncate table and it takes nearly as long as the bcp operation. The table has 12 million rows. I didn't think either operation wrote to the transaction log except for page extent management. Why is the drop and truncate so slow. Suggestions?
I have a table with one column, and i want to remove those records from the table which are duplicate i meant if i have a records rakesh in table two time then one records should be remove... my tables is like that
Is there any way to remove IDENTITY property on particular table? I tried removing IDENTITY property using Manangement studio, but this operation behind the scene use migration concept that is by creating tmp table and then populating with data; droping the orginal and renaming the tmp back to original.
Second, i want some kind of generic solution using certain system table like aya.sysobjects, sys.identitycolumn etc such a way that i should be able to remove the idenity property from all of the table accross a database.
I currently have one table that lists all projects and tasks within the organisation. One of the table fields is the task status, open or closed. I would like to be able to have a process by which the tasks that are completed are removed from the table and placed into another (archive) table. The same records then being removed from the original table. which then only contains the incomplete tasks. This process could be run at given times during the day or at the point when the status of a task is changed from open to closed, either way each time the process is run it would need to append the rows removed into the archive table. Anyone any ideas on the best way to do this?.
hello, once upon a time when i created my db (originally in access then used the conversion tool, which i now know is wrong!) i thought it would be an amazing idea to have cascading updates and deletes, however it turns out now this is exactly not what i want! if i leave them in then it throws errors when i delete records out of my stock table as related records are in the order_line table here is the code (well i think so, im not the best at sqlserver as you probably can tell already) that im using if anyone can help or point me in the right direction that would be great, thanks USE [nashdfDB1]GO/****** Object: Table [dbo].[tbl_stock] Script Date: 07/13/2007 02:52:14 ******/SET ANSI_NULLS ONGOSET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ONGOSET ANSI_PADDING ONGOCREATE TABLE [dbo].[tbl_stock]( [Stock_ID] [int] IDENTITY(1,1) NOT NULL, [cat_id] [int] NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [DF__tbl_stock__cat_i__15502E78] DEFAULT ((0)), [sub_cat_id] [int] NULL CONSTRAINT [DF__tbl_stock__sub_c__164452B1] DEFAULT ((0)), [location] [int] NULL CONSTRAINT [DF__tbl_stock__locat__173876EA] DEFAULT ((0)), [n_or_sh] [varchar](50) NULL, [title] [varchar](255) NULL, [description] [varchar](255) NULL, [size] [varchar](50) NULL, [colour] [varchar](50) NULL, [cost_price] [decimal](9, 2) NULL CONSTRAINT [DF__tbl_stock__cost___182C9B23] DEFAULT ((0)), [selling_price] [decimal](9, 2) NULL CONSTRAINT [DF__tbl_stock__selli__1920BF5C] DEFAULT ((0)), [qty] [varchar](50) NULL, [date] [datetime] NULL CONSTRAINT [DF__tbl_stock__date__1A14E395] DEFAULT (getdate()), [condition] [varchar](255) NULL, [notes] [varchar](255) NULL, [visible] [bit] NULL CONSTRAINT [DF__tbl_stock__visib__1B0907CE] DEFAULT ((1)), [picture1] [varchar](50) NULL, [picture1_thumb] [varchar](50) NULL, [picture2] [varchar](50) NULL, [picture2_thumb] [varchar](50) NULL, [picture3] [varchar](50) NULL, [picture3_thumb] [varchar](50) NULL, [picture4] [varchar](50) NULL, [picture4_thumb] [varchar](50) NULL, [display_price] [varchar](50) NULL, [created_by] [varchar](50) NULL, [buying_in_recipt] [varchar](255) NULL, CONSTRAINT [tbl_stock$PrimaryKey] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED ( [Stock_ID] ASC)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]) ON [PRIMARY] GO SET ANSI_PADDING OFF
Hey all, I have a profile table for members of a website that allows them to upload an avatar for use throughout the site. I decided to add the option to just remove the avatar if they want to no longer use one at all and I am stuck. I am running an update statement against thier entire profile incase they change more then just removing thier avatar but of course when I try this statement. myCommand.Parameters.AddWithValue("@avatar", "") I get a conversion error, which makes sence. So what instead of "" do I need for code to just insert empty data to overwirte thier current avatar data. Any help would be great, thanks for you time.
