Is There Any Way To Just Reinitialize Only The Changed Article?
Oct 24, 2007
Hi,
I'm setting up Transaction Replication b/w SQL Server 2K and SQL Server 2K5.
I have published Tables, Views and SPs as articles.
When I try to modify the published Stored procedure, the changes are not replicated.
When I Reinitialize the Subscription and start the Snapshot agent, it is copying the changes
made. But all articles are reinitialized again, So it takes huge time to do this.
Is there any way to just reinitialize only the changed article?
Or Is there any work around for this problem?
Than

I am getting continuous errors in publisher/distributor server
Background: Transactional replication (Push) with one publication (above 30 articles (tables)) and 1 subscriber. Publisher/Distributor is 2008r2 SP2 & Subscriber is 2008r2 sp1
Current Problem:
Repl-Distribution
Message
Replication-Replication Distribution Subsystem: agent PubServername-Production-ProductionReplication-Subscriberservername scheduled for retry (One of the replication job). Query timeout expired.
When I open the replication monitor..In the first tab it is showing performance excellent but when I double click on the publiscation, it is showing errors under distributor to subscriber tab and there are some undistributed commands 5873507, estimated time to apply these commands, based on last performance is 1:06:05:05
Question 1: Do I need to reinitialize the subscriptions? How to find out the problem what went wrong with replication
Question 2: If I want to do any schema changes @publisher do I need to stop the log reader agent and start after the deployment? In my case both publisher/distributor are on the same server (Transactional Replication)

Hi members!
I was wondering how to reintialize one of many subscriptions under a publication...
I know I can use sp_startpublication_snapshot to reinitialize all the subscriptions but how do you only reinitialize one subscription????
Thanks for your help!!! very appreciated!

We have several sites using SQLCE to merge sync. with an SQL 2005 server, and recently a large change was made at the server end. The sites now only seems to upload their changes, but are unable to download any server changes, and the sync fails with the following message (after about half an hour):
A call to SQL Server Reconciler failed. Try to resynchronize.
HRESULT 0x80004005 (29006)
The merge process was unable to create a new generation at the 'Publisher'. Troubleshoot by restarting the synchronization with verbose history logging and specify an output file to which to write.
HRESULT 0x8004501E (0)
I would like to reinitialize the subscriptions using the option to upload any subscriber changes first, but I don't know exactly what this will do. Will it simply re-download the entire database, after uploading any recent changes? This is what I want it to do, but am unable to find any help telling me what exactly 'reinitialize subscription' does.
Many thanks in advance!

I have a few databases that I replicate between NY and Greece. We utilize merge replication on all SQL 2000 servers. My question, is there a quick way to reinitialize replication besides pushing the initial snapshot? I would like to avoid the initial snapshot in the event of a failure due to the amount of time it takes to transfer over our 3mb ATM circuit.
Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Michael

If I have one table in one publication in transactional replication
replication between primary and replicate is broken because subscription is marked as inactive.
If there are 3 rows on replicate and 5 rows on primary , out of which 2 are added after replication is broken
If I do
Reinitialize subscriptions
start the snapshot agent
start the distribution agent
Does this mean that it will only transfer the new 2 rows to replicate sites ? or will it drop everything from replicate site and apply all rows from primary site on to replicate.
Any help is appreciated

I have kind of unique situation. I am running Merge replication. In one of my publications I am only publishing procedures/functions/views. By design, these do not change that often, but when a programmability object changes, it is scripted in a way so that:
1. The article is dropped from the publication
2. the object is then changed
3. The article is added back to the publication
My question is: Is there a table or view that the subscriber or publisher can see that could tell me if reinitialization needs to occur. I am looking at adding an automated script at the subscriber that makes the determiniation and automatically reinitializes the subscription. My alternative is to force the subscriber to reinitialize every time when synchronizing with this publication, even if nothing has changed because the process has to be automated.
Thanks,
Bill

Hi
I have a web sync merge publication with multiple anonymous subscribers. Unfortunately two of the subscribers have experienced errors as follows.
###############################################
The Merge Agent failed after detecting that retention-based metadata cleanup has deleted metadata at the Subscriber for changes not yet sent to the Publisher. You must reinitialize the subscription (without upload). (Source: MSSQL_REPL, Error number: MSSQL_REPL-2147199401)
###############################################
Now they successfully sync'd within the retention period so I am baffled as to why the cleanup has occured. Unfortunately I can't seem to find a way to reinitialize just a single subscriber. It seems that the only reinitialize option is across all subscribers, which I do not wish to do as they would loose any changes since last sync.
Can anyone shed any light on this.
Cheers
Rab

Hello,
After creating a publication for Merge Replication, if I need to add or drop a simple table, do I have to reinitialize the snapshot all over again?
Thanks

I've been trying to reinitialize the membership database, but something stops me.
I have tried deleting aspnetdb.mdf from the App_Data folder. This works fine, and then a new one is created when I use the asp.net adminstration tool. I can use the server explorer to view the table content (all null).
Although I can open the asp.net configuration page, the problem occurs when I select security. Then I get the error
There is a problem with your selected data store. This can be caused by an invalid server name or credentials, or by insufficient permission. It can also be caused by the role manager feature not being enabled. Click the button below to be redirected to a page where you can choose a new data store. The following message may help in diagnosing the problem: Database 'C:WINDOWSMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727asp.netwebadminfilesApp_DataASPNETDB.MDF' already exists. Could not attach file 'C:Documents and SettingsJeff LeeseMy Documentsworldmy workcurrentcounsellorApp_DataASPNETDB.MDF' as database 'ASPNETDB_devjeffleese'.
All this seems to have happened after I modified my connection info in the web.config file:
<connectionStrings>
<remove name="LocalSqlServer"/>
<add name="LocalSqlServer" connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;
 AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|ASPNETDB.MDF;
 user instance=true;
 Integrated Security=True;
 Initial Catalog=ASPNETDB_devjeffleese;"
providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>
So, two questions:
1) What are the 
 sections about? They seem to have been inserted automatically at some point, and I wonder if its just formatting info or should I remove them?
2) How can I get security going again. How do I deal with the 'already exists' problem that prevents 'attaching' ?
Would greatly appreciate guidance in how to start over...

When trying to reinitialize a transactional replication subscription I am unable to select the "Generate the new snapshot now" checkbox. This seems to be happening only with SSMS 2014. When I connect to the same server from SSMS 2008 R2 I am able to select this checkbox.

MS has post a KB article on how to post a question on a online forum...
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/q555375
At first I though this was hilarious, but there is actually some good information in here that is applicable on this forum as well as anywhere else. Perhaps Brett could add this as a sticky?

Hi:
If I want to unpublish an article thru Enterprise Manager, it does not allow me to uncheck it at publication properties. It only allows me to uncheck articles if I delete the subscription first. Does anybody know how tp do this in Enterprise Manager without deleting the subscription?
Thanks

Here's what my script boils down to when adding a new view (admin.replication_test):
Code:
EXEC sp_addarticle
@publication = N'<publication name>'
, @article = N'replication_test'
, @source_owner = N'admin'
, @source_object = N'replication_test'
, @type = N'view schema only'
;
If I check the GUI, the article appears to be ticked in the publication.
Generate a new snapshot.
View not found in replicated database!

how to add new article within the existing replication

Hi There
I hope someone can help me asap.
I need to alter a column on a replicated table.
So i execute sp_dropsubscription and sp_droparticle for the table for all publication to that article in the database.
Usually i just alter the table and then execute sp_adddarticle and sp_addsubscription afterwards and everything is cool.
However in this case after i drop the subscriptions for the article, when i try alter the table it says it is being replicated.
I query sysobjects and see that the table has replinfo = 1 , this is snapshot replication, but i only have transactional replication ? I used to have snapshot but that was dropped long ago.
I then query sysarticles and i find the table, however the pubid (publication id) for the table is equal to the publication id of another databases publication ??? I also have found in sysarticles articles with a publication id's equal to publications that do not exist, for example articles will have pubid of 2 , but if i run sp_helppublication on all user databases there is no publciation with an id of 2 ?
Please help, even after i drop all subscriptions to an article it seems that sql server thinks the article belongs to another databases publciation or publications that no longer exist?
Maybe there is some sort of cleanup sp i can run or something but it seems to me sql server has gotten articles confused with old deleted publications that no longer exist.
Therefore after dropping all subscriptions i still cannot alter tables as sql server think it is still being published but it is not!
Thanx

hello,
i need to filter an article based on a user-supplied datetime filter (the datetime parameter is specified by the subscriber just before replication). at the same time i need to filter again by user (different subscribers get different rows).
i already did the user-based filter using HOST_NAME( ). but the difficulty here (al least i think so) lies in passing 2 parameters to the filter. i cannot rely on using SUSER_SNAME to pass the user filter, because no one will want to create 500 user accounts. so i guess the only solution here is to pass both parameters using only HOST_NAME( ) and then write 2 splitting functions which uses HOST_NAME( ) as its parameter. am i right ?
publisher/distributor is sql server 2005, all subscribers use sql mobile.
TIA, kamil nowicki

The chapter from my book that talks about upgrading packages from DTS to SSIS has been posted here : http://www.quepublishing.com/articles/article.asp?p=605035&rl=1
Didn't even know it until I happened to be doing a search on upgrading and the article popped up in the search...
How funny is that! :)
Hope it helps.

the msdn article explains how to input new data to a databse and return the primary key of the inputted row. It works perfectly. However, it explains how to insert a value, but there is a problem. It seems to set the value to be submitted in the VB code, instead of having the value be the user's input in the textbox. Look for the following line in the code below: newRow("ClientFileNumber") = "ClientFileNumber" It inputs "clientfilenumber" instead of what is actually inputted in the texbox. Does anyone know how to bypass this, to not have the words "clientfilenumber" inputted?Dim sqlconn As SqlConnection = New SqlConnection("Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|Client.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True")
Dim catDA As SqlDataAdapter = New SqlDataAdapter("SELECT * FROM Orders", sqlconn)
catDA.InsertCommand = New SqlCommand("JobInsert", sqlconn)
catDA.InsertCommand.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure
catDA.InsertCommand.Parameters.Add("@ClientFileNumber", SqlDbType.VarChar, 50, "ClientFileNumber")Dim NewJobNumber As SqlParameter = catDA.InsertCommand.Parameters.Add("@Identity", SqlDbType.Int, 0, "OrdersID")
NewJobNumber.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output
sqlconn.Open()
Dim catDS As DataSet = New DataSetcatDA.Fill(catDS, "Orders")
Dim newRow As DataRow = catDS.Tables("Orders").NewRow()
newRow("ClientFileNumber") = ""catDS.Tables("Orders").Rows.Add(newRow)
catDA.Update(catDS, "Orders")
sqlconn.Close()
Response.Redirect("control_page_copy.aspx?NewJobNumber=" + NewJobNumber.Value.ToString())

Hi,
I'm building a straightforward-ish news site. Currently, the story details (e.g. headline, description, author, date) are stored in a SQL DB. The news is categorised and the category details are also stored in an SQL table.
However - what is the best way to store the actual news article?
At the moment, when the user enters a story, they input the details and article text. The details are saved in the DB and the text is saved as an XML file with filename corresponding to the article DB primary key. When the story is "read" the app pulls the details from the DB and loads up the appropriate XML file from disk.
For various reasons, I need to keep the article stored as XML, either in a file or in the DB. The DB provides for faster sorting and retrieval, and I don't want to store large amounts of data (i.e. the article itself) in the DB if avoidable.
I guess there are a few ways to do it -
1. Store details in DB and article as XML file.2. Store details and article in same DB table3. Store details in one DB table and articles in another
I would imagine that 3 would be the best, but would there be a performance hit? What is the maximum size of field (i.e. article size) I can have in a table?
Cheers
Graham Wilson.

We're replicating columns in a table from 7.0 server to SQL2k server. Once we've got the data on SQL2k, we were able to take advantage of DTS that was not available in version 7.0.
I recenlty added a column to the article and changed the DTS accordingly (transformation columns). However, I'm getting this error ever though I added the new column in the DTS.
-------
The number of columns in the bcp file does not match what is defined in the DTS package. Regenerate the package.
-----
I've recreated the package with no luck. This is becoming urgent as it's supposed to go into production soon.
Please help!!
Thanks,
Colleen

Hi All,
I am having a server where replication is set up between 2 differnt databases. It is currently running. I want to add a couple of tables to the replication. I tried using sp_addArticle, but after executing it, in the properties of the publication it shows the new tables, but at the database level the tables are missing.
I tried with sp_addsubscription but I am getting strange error:
Server: Msg 14100, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_addsubscription, Line 240
Specify all articles when subscribing to a publication using concurrent snapshot processing.
What can I do to publish the tables into the target database?
Thanks in advance.

I am running merge replication (SQL 2000 with SP2) with an anonymous pull subscription. The application vendor has come out with update that requires adding a table to a database. The vendor has created scripts that will add the table, as well as some stored procedures. If I apply the scripts to both servers and add the table as a new article to the publication, am I going to have to apply a snapshot of the entire database (which is very large)?
Your help is greatly appreciated.
Gary
