How To Write An Application Which Monitors Transaction Log?
Sep 3, 2007
Hi,
It is possible to write an application which monitors the Microsoft SQL Server 2005 database's transaction log and captures data modified (values after modification) by transactions? Can you point me to some tutorial and API specification?

} if (ReplicationComplete != null) ReplicationComplete(this, true); } catch(Exception ex) { if (ReplicationComplete != null) ReplicationComplete(ex, false); }
}
Then later, if I try to update, insert or delete to the database, the application will hang. I can read from it, but I cannot write. If I close the application down and open it back up without replicating, I will not get any lockups. It also will not hang up after any replications prior to the create replication. I think I am doing something wrong in the initial replication that is holding on to some connection to the DB causing it to lock up. Has anyone seen anything like this before?
We have recently moved our database to a SAN and I am trying to monitor performance. Does anyone know of a good way to monitor performance going to the SAN? I have been watching things like %Disk time and Avg Disk Queue Length, but does anyone know if these are acurrate when referring to a SAN? My %Disk Time is going up to numbers as high as 1200. The Disk queue length seems kind of low for seeing that high disk time as well.
Hi all!What is the best tool to use in order to get some SQL performance logs?I could use build in admin tool perfmon but I was wondering whetherthere is a way I could anaylse the write a report on the performanceusing EM ?Thank you in advance!
I would like to ask if there will be a write and concurrency issue if i would create an online application with just one user connecting to the database, just like most open source php/mysql that can be downloaded
i.e Setup 1. I will grant a single user that will connect to a database and will be set to a config.inc.php file and then create a table users (userid, username, password) and this table will be used for the application authentication and access control.
Setup 2. or is it much better to grant users that will connect to the database and have the table users for access control of the application?
to further illustrate my query:
Setup 1 would be: ###################Table: Users user a@ipadd --> db1 --> userid mary --> myOnlineApp user a@ipadd --> db1 --> userid john --> myOnlineApp user a@ipadd --> db1 --> userid paul --> myOnlineApp
and Setup 2 would be: #####################Table: Users user mary@ipadd --> db1 --> userid mary --> myOnlineApp user john@ipadd --> db1 --> userid john --> myOnlineApp user paul@ipadd --> db1 --> userid paul --> myOnlineApp
will Setup 1 be enough if I will use SQL Server as database?
or Setup 2 is better user/database architecture?
This application will be online enrollment for a school with 16,000 students
very much appreciated for the feedbacks and suggestions

After I watch a video for how to create MS SQL Replication, I configure distribution and create the publication. The problem comes from subscription. If I create a "PUSH" subscription, it works fine. However, when I create a "PULL" subscription, I got the following error. Where I should look for solution for this error.
We are using - MSSQL Server 2000 on windows 2000 advanced server. PB 7.0 for client server front end tools.
Prior to few days our application works fine, rightnow it get slow or not responding after few (4/5) transaction. We don't know wht it is, If anyone has same experience so that is helpfull for us.
I'm getting this when executing the code below. Going from W2K/SQL2k SP4 to XP/SQL2k SP4 over a dial-up link.
If I take away the begin tran and commit it works, but of course, if one statement fails I want a rollback. I'm executing this from a Delphi app, but I get the same from Qry Analyser.
I've tried both with and without the Set XACT . . ., and also tried with Set Implicit_Transactions off.
set XACT_ABORT ON Begin distributed Tran update OPENDATASOURCE('SQLOLEDB','Data Source=10.10.10.171;User ID=*****;Password=****').TRANSFERSTN.TSADMIN.TRANSACTIONMAIN set REPFLAG = 0 where REPFLAG = 1 update TSADMIN.TRANSACTIONMAIN set REPFLAG = 0 where REPFLAG = 1 and DONE = 1 update OPENDATASOURCE('SQLOLEDB','Data Source=10.10.10.171;User ID=*****;Password=****').TRANSFERSTN.TSADMIN.WBENTRY set REPFLAG = 0 where REPFLAG = 1 update TSADMIN.WBENTRY set REPFLAG = 0 where REPFLAG = 1 update OPENDATASOURCE('SQLOLEDB','Data Source=10.10.10.171;User ID=*****;Password=****').TRANSFERSTN.TSADMIN.FIXED set REPFLAG = 0 where REPFLAG = 1 update TSADMIN.FIXED set REPFLAG = 0 where REPFLAG = 1 update OPENDATASOURCE('SQLOLEDB','Data Source=10.10.10.171;User ID=*****;Password=****').TRANSFERSTN.TSADMIN.ALTCHARGE set REPFLAG = 0 where REPFLAG = 1 update TSADMIN.ALTCHARGE set REPFLAG = 0 where REPFLAG = 1 update OPENDATASOURCE('SQLOLEDB','Data Source=10.10.10.171;User ID=*****;Password=****').TRANSFERSTN.TSADMIN.TSAUDIT set REPFLAG = 0 where REPFLAG = 1 update TSADMIN.TSAUDIT set REPFLAG = 0 where REPFLAG = 1 COMMIT TRAN
It's got me stumped, so any ideas gratefully received.Thx
I have a design a SSIS Package for ETL Process. In my package i have to read the data from the tables and then insert into the another table of same structure.
for reading the data i have write the Dynamic TSQL based on some condition and based on that it is using 25 different function to populate the data into different 25 column. Tsql returning correct data and is working fine in Enterprise manager. But in my SSIS package it show me time out ERROR.
I have increase and decrease the time to catch the error but it is still there i have tried to set 0 for commandout Properties.
if i'm using the 0 for commandtime out then i'm getting the Distributed transaction completed. Either enlist this session in a new transaction or the NULL transaction.
and
Failed to open a fastload rowset for "[dbo].[P@@#$%$%%%]". Check that the object exists in the database.
I am getting this error :Distributed transaction completed. Either enlist this session in a new transaction or the NULL transaction. Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. Exception Details: System.Data.OleDb.OleDbException: Distributed transaction completed. Either enlist this session in a new transaction or the NULL transaction.have anybody idea?!
i have a sequence container in my my sequence container i have a script task for drop the existing tables. This seq. container connected to another seq. container. all these are in for each loop container when i run the package it's work fine for 1st looop but it gives me error for second execution.
Message is like this:
Distributed transaction completed. Either enlist this session in a new transaction or the NULL transaction.
i am getting this error "Distributed transaction completed. Either enlist this session in a new transaction or the NULL transaction.".
my transations have been done using LINKED SERVER. when i manually call the store procedure from Server 1 it works but when i call it through Service broker it dosen't work and gives me this error.

I have Full database backup upto previous day and transaction logfile of Today transaction. my database has crashed. I have restored previous day's Full backup. I have faced difficulty to restore today's transaction from today's transaction log. What are the steps to restore full database back and one day's transaction log file. Note: there is no differential database backup and transaction backup.
I'm receiving the below error when trying to implement Execute SQL Task.
"The ROLLBACK TRANSACTION request has no corresponding BEGIN TRANSACTION." This error also happens on COMMIT as well and there is a preceding Execute SQL Task with BEGIN TRANSACTION tranname WITH MARK 'tran'
I know I can change the transaction option property from "supported" to "required" however I want to mark the transaction. I was copying the way Import/Export Wizard does it however I'm unable to figure out why it works and why mine doesn't work.
I created a Calculated measure in cube something like this : ([TransType].[TransTypeHierarchy].[TransTypeCategoryParent].&[SPEND],[Measures].[Transaction Amount]). To get only spend transactions. Now, I want to slice this measure with same hierarchy to find the amount distribution across different transaction types under spend transaction. But this query behaving like the measure doesn't have relation with measure.
you can think this as below query: WITH MEMBER SPEND AS ([TransType].[TransTypeHierarchy].[TransTypeCategoryParent].&[SPEND],[Measures].[Transaction Amount]) SELECT NON EMPTY {SPEND} ON 0 ,NON EMPTY ([TransType].[TransTypeHierarchy].[TransTypeCategoryParent]) ON 1 FROM [CUBE]
How do I make use of begin transaction and commit transaction in SSIS.
As am not able to commit changes due to certain update commands I want to explicitly write begin and commit statements. but when i make use of begin and commit in OLEDB commnad stage it throws an error as follows:
Hresult:0x80004005
descriptionyntax error or access violation.
its definately not an syntax error as i executed it in sql server. also when i use it in execute sql task out side the dataflow container it doesnt throw any error but still this task doesnt serve my purpose of saving/ commiting update chanages in the database.
I am having some problem with SSIS transaction. Eventhought I tried to imitate the concept that Jamie presented at http://www.sqlservercentral.com/columnists/jthomson/transactionsinsqlserver2005integrationservices.asp
. My workflow is as followed
********************************* For Each ADO.Record in Oracle (transaction=not supported)
If (Certain_Field_Value = 'A')
Lookup Data in SQL DB with values from Oracle (transaction=not supported)
DO Sequence A (Start a Transaction , transaction=required)
INSERT/UPDATE some records in SQLDB(transaction=supported) Finish Sequence A ( transaction should stop here) UPDATE Oracle DB ( Execute SQLTask, transaction=not supported) If (Certain_Field_Value = 'B')
Lookup Data in SQL DB with values from Oracle (transaction=not supported)
DO Sequence B (Start a Transaction , transaction = required)
INSERT/UPDATE some records in SQLDB (transaction=supported) Finish Sequence A ( transaction should stop here) UPDATE Oracle DB ( Execute SQLTask, transaction=not supported) If (Certain_Field_Value = 'C')
------------ ------------ End ForEach Loop ************************************* My requirements are that I want separate transaction for each Sequence A, B, C, etc... If Sequence A transaction fails, the other should still be continuing with another transaction. But I am getting an error regarding the OLEDB Error in next Task (e.g in Certain_Field_Value = 'B') "Lookup Data in SQL DB with values from Oracle ", the error message is ".......Distributed transaction completed. Either enlist this session in a new transaction or the NULL transaction. ". What is it that I am doing wrong? Regards KyawAM
Hey, don't know if it's the right place for this question but i hope you help me. I made an application with VS 2005 that connecting to sql server file db.mdf Now i want this application work on another user computer, and of course i don't want to install vs 2005 there. I did install .net framework, but what i need to do to make the database work? do i have to install sql server on his computer? or is there something more simple? I know that if i was using access file than i need to install nothing else. please help! thanx. max
The operation could not be performed because the OLE DB provider 'SQLOLEDB' was unable to begin a distributed transaction. [OLE/DB provider returned message: New transaction cannot enlist in the specified transaction coordinator. ] OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'SQLOLEDB' ITransactionJoin::JoinTransaction returned 0x8004d00a].

I am executing a stored procedure something like this
Create Procedure TEST @test1 @test2 AS BeGIN TRANSACTION ONE SELECT... UPDATE.. .... ....
.... TRUNCATE etc and lot of Select,update and delete statements like this ..... COMMIT TRANSACTION ONE
The Block of code which I have b/w BEGIN TRANSACTION AND COMMIT TRANSACTION ..Will it be rolled back if it encounters any errors in the SELECT,UPPDATE,DELETE ..statements which I have with the transaction one. IF not How do I roll back if it encounters any erros b/w the BEGIN TRANSACTION and END TRANSACTION.
---------------------------------------------- dim conn, connectionstring
connectionstring= "Provider=SQLOLEDB.1; Data Source = blahblah; Initial Catalog = abc; User Id = osss; Password=xxx"
set conn = server.CreateObject("adodb.connection") conn.open connectionstring
----------------------------------------------
It's just basically to set up the connection to the SQL server, it works on my other pages, but on a few pages, the last line (conn.open connectionstring) triggers this error:
"Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '8004d00a'
New transaction cannot enlist in the specified transaction coordinator. "
I've never encountered this error before and I couldn't think of any solution... please help!!!
I had thought that if any statement failed within a BEING TRANS .. COMMIT TRANS block, then all the statements would be rolled back. But I am seeing different behavior (SQL Server 2000 8.00.2039)
For instance, run these statements to set up a test: --DROP TABLE testTable1 --DROP TABLE testTable2 CREATE TABLE testTable1 (f1 varchar(1)) CREATE TABLE testTable2 (f1 varchar(1)) CREATE UNIQUE INDEX idx_tmptmp ON testTable1 (f1) insert into testTable1(f1) values ('a')
So table testTable1 has a unique index on it..
Now try to run these statements:
--DELETE FROM testTable2 BEGIN TRANSACTION insert into testTable1(f1) values ('a') insert into testTable2(f1) values ('a') COMMIT TRANSACTION
SELECT * FROM testTable2
..the first insert fails on the unique index.. but the second insert succeeds. Shouldn't the second insert roll back? How can I make two operations atomic?
Hi,On My local SQL server I have added a linked server to another SQLserver (remoteserver) in another Windows NT Domain.When I run this codeselect count(*) from remoteserver.mosaics.dbo.LocationThis works fine.However when I usebegin transactionselect count(*) from remoteserver.mosaics.dbo.LocationIt errors out saying thatThe operation could not be performed because the OLE DB provider'SQLOLEDB' was unable to begin a distributed transaction.New transaction cannot enlist in the specified transactioncoordinator. ]OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'SQLOLEDB'ITransactionJoin::JoinTransaction returned 0x8004d00a].My question is even though I am just reading data from theremoteserver, why does the local transaction get promoted to adistributed transaction.Any help will be grately appreciated.TIA...Rohit
