Hi,
I have two SQL 2000 Server running on Windows 2003 Standard Edtion. I am using merge option to replicate database as Transactional option is excluding some tables. Both server are not in Active Directory and I am trying to replicate over the internet. I got following error message while using Merge option:
Error Message:
The subscription to publication 'XXX' is invalid.
Error details:
The subscription to publication 'XXX' is invalid.

Any help regarding the same will be appricated. Thanks.
I am using sql 2005 replication in my application. But how can i log the transactions that are happening in the server and client databases please help me...
What's the relationship among replication, publication and subscription?
I want to create replication database, what things should I know first?
I've a merge rep running with 4 subscribers for a while. Now I
wanted to add another subscriber and when I open the publisher
in the pull subscription assistant dialog, there are no publications
in it. (even not if i switch to "allow anonymous sub") But every-
thing seems to be alright wirh the publication itself! It even doesn't
work to select the publication in a pull subs. from an other db on the
same server! Any ideas?
Any help will be greatly appreciated!!!
I had a merge subscription expire and now need to synchronize two disparate databases. How do I do so without overwriting the subscriber database with the publication snapshot? Thanks for any help you can give.

Is there any way to find out if "subscription to publication has expired" in advance using RMO?
How can I check using sql that a data driven subscription has run and the time it had finished?

Hi.
First of all, I apologize for my english
I have two publications. Some of the data are the same on the two publications. Both are configured as follow : The identity range management is set to "automatic" and the tracking-level is set to "Column-level tracking". Until there, every things works fine.
But, if i'm deleting one of the publication and if i'm deleting one of the rows that were replicated on the two publications i'm getting the following SQL Exception : "Invalid object name 'dbo.MSmerge_repl_view_1CAD32C4FF904A3CA27518B0C4BFF716_70308DE2261C4EC784C56131902E7D1C'"
If i'm watching the status of the leftover replication through the replication monitor, i get this error message :
"Error messages:
The Publisher failed to allocate a new set of identity ranges for the subscription. This can occur when a Publisher or a republishing Subscriber has run out of identity ranges to allocate to its own Subscribers or when an identity column data type does not support an additional identity range allocation.

I checked the given links but they're useless.
So I tried to reinitialize the subscription with the "use a new snapshot" option enabled without any success either. I did only obtain a new error message :
"The publisher's identity range allocation entry could not be found in MSmerge_identity_range table.

I didnt have any idea to correct this issue, so I would appreciate any help.
Thanks.

Hi,
I have setup report subcription with stored credential using a valid domain account and "Use as Window Credentials..." checked. Everything tested fine and works properly when the report is viewed in a web application. The problem is this report renders fine in the browser 80% of the time and occasionally it gives me Logon failure error:
An error has occurred during report processing (rsProcessingAborted)
Cannot impersonate user for data source 'Pinnacle'. (rsErrorImpersonatingUser)
Logon failed. (rsLoginFailed)
Logon failed: unknown user name or bad password. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007052E)
Since the report is working 80% of the time and the user domain account hasn't changed. I am confused why I am getting bad user account error. Please help!
Thanks.

Hello,
In our environment (SQL 2005) we have a database that uses Transactional Replication to sync data between two SQL 2005 servers. There is a web app that reads/writes data to the publisher server and the other server (that gets the replicated data) is used by some other internal applications.
At times, there is a need to delete some data from the publisher server...but this can ONLY happen once the data has been successfully replicated to the second server. Is there any way to determine if a row has been replicated successfully?
thanks

I have an application that uses web-based merge replication. My publisher is SQL 2005 and my subscriber is SQL 2005 Express. I control the replication with RMO code. If I make changes to the data in both databases using SQL Server Management Studio Express, my RMO code correctly syncs the two databases. However if I make changes to the data at the subscription through my application, these changes are not picked up by the replication process, even though the changes are present if you check the tables through Management Studio. What would cause these changes to not be recognized? Any ideas would be appreciated.

I want to send a deployed report (report manager), through email, by calling reportingServices webservice. But the requirement is that, time is not fixed for sending this email, so I want to trigger the sending of report as a one time event, no subscription to a daily time...
How should I go about it?
We are using push subscription using transactional replication. Is there a recommended value for retention period on distributionDb? We are using default value of 72 hrs and recently we saw an issue where data was not replicated with an error that subscription was inactive. When I searched, I fid that it is related to the retention period setting on distribution DB.

Is it possible to have a replicated table that you can open from and input data manually?
That is, I've got a table that I am replicating data to and I want to add some manual data to this table, every now and then.
Will this break replication?

On sqlserver 2000 transactional replication:
How would I best go about changing a published table's column from smallint to int? I could not find anything about it in BOL or MS.com. I do not think EM/Replication Properties allows the change. I suspect I have to run "Alter Table/Column" on the Publisher and each Subscriber the old-fashioned way. Is that true?
Thanks!
We have a master database (SQL 2014 Std) from which data are imported from XML files (send by en ERP system) using SSIS. There is about 12 other servers (SQL 2014 Express) located in remote warehouses. People will uses PocketPC to scan barcode of products in the warehouses and all operations must be forwarded to the master DB to be exported in a XML file for the ERP system.Now, each warehouses are independant. How can I setup the replication so only data belonging to a specific warehouse is replicated to its corresponding DB? I thought about creating views, one for each warehouses, and setup a replication for each warehouse, so there would be 12 merge replications configured. Is it fine?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi, everyone,
I am new in SQL server 2005. I had setup SQL server 2005 P2P replication. Somehow it did not work one of two way replication. I tried to delete the publication. However I could not do it. have the same problem. When I tried to delete the publication, I got the publication " " does not exist.[SQL server error: 20026]. I tried to use sp_droppublication, it gave me error "the database is not enabled for publication". Nevertheless, I can see the publication in MS SQL Management Studio and Publication monitor with OK status. I could not find the distribution database either.
Could you anyone has ideas to delete this publication? I am sorry I am not a programmer. Please give me more detail explanation if you can. Thanks.
Hi all,
I am new to replication and have a few questions.
1) Are there any "hooks" available to insert processing when a subscriber is about to copy data from a replicating site?
2) Is it possible for a subscriber to change only his local copy of the data - without replicating the changes back to the publisher?
I realise that once the data changes in one place it isn't really replicated anymore, and I realise that my limited knowledge of the subject might well mean I'm not even asking the right questions. Therefore, I shall try to describe as best I can my scenario.
I wish to use many servers for transactional input (to distribute the workload) and use replication to publish the inputted data to a subscribing central site. One of the tables I wish to replicate has an identity column as primary key, but the records should otherwise be unique - i.e. no two records should differ only in the value of the key. Another table, which should also be replicated, uses this id value as a foreign key.
I can use the identity increment and seed to guarantee no key violations will occur when copying data to the central server. However, there is another issue: Several servers can create the same record but with different id values.
I need to "merge" such records by deleting duplicate entries in the table with the identifier as primary key, and update the foreign keys correspondingly. To clarify (I hope!), here's an example of what data I might have on the central site after copying data from two input sites:
TRANSACTION table
amount = 200, metadata_id = 1001 // Replicated from server INPUT_1
amount = -117, metadata_id = 2001 // Replicated from server INPUT_2
METADATA table:
id=1001 Actitiy=Sales, Country=USA
id=2001 Activity=Sales, Country=USA
What I would like is basically for the central site to identify that metadata 2001 is really the same as metadata 1001, update the foreign key in the TRANSACTION record accordingly and not import (or delete, if this "merging" is done in a post-treatment) the duplicate metadata record.
If anyone can offer any advice on how to achieve this I would appreciate your input.
Hello,
I have a small three server development environment where I am getting my feet wet with replication. I have set up peer-to-peer transactional replication and it works fine for data added to the publication's table after the publication was created. However, rows in the table that existed prior to the publication's creation have never replicated. If any of the "old" rows are edited they cause an error on the subscribing servers when the replicator attempts to apply updates to rows that do not exist.
How can I get the old rows that predate the publication to replicate?
Thanks,
BCB
Hi,
We have an existing merged replication schema that works well. One of the
tables is named audit. Currently this is a bidirectional transfer. However,
we want a new audit table that will transfer data from the subscriber to the
publisher and not the other way round. I have a script that was generated as a backup script when replication was first created. I have no idea which parameter to change in order to have the merge replication going from subscriber to publisher. Any advise is helpful. Thanks.
I have automated process, which synchronizes a transactional publication using initialize from backup approach. It drops subscriptions and puts them back again once the restore on the subscriber is completed.
Dropping the subscriptions causes a lot of blocking and deadlocking. I've decided to remove those steps, but it causes loss of data on the subscriber.
Is it a must to drop and re-create the subscriptions during such process? If not, how can I avoid the loss of data?
I have a stored procedure that receives an input parameter of ReporID and then sends back the appropriate dataset to the data-driven subscription. In the stored procedure, there is some concatenated sql in producting the final select statement to send to the subscription, but it is generating the following error:
The dataset cannot be generated. An error occurred while connecting to a data source, or the query is not valid for the data source. (rsCannotPrepareQuery) Get Online Help
Insert Error: Column name or number of supplied values does not match table definition.
Because there are some optional columns that need to conditionally appear based on the report, I can't avoid concatenation. My only other option is to have hundreds of individual tables to source all our reports, which I don't have time to manage.
Please let me know how I can allow the data-driven subscription setup process to discover the columns for my concatenated SQL so I can seutp my schedules based on the single stored procedure with all my logic nested in my table structure.
Thanks.

It seems to work fine with one million records.
Each primary key is unique, but the begindate is non-unique, and i guess even if i use datetime2 and add nanoseconds, from what i have read, there is a chance that i could have a duplicate datetime since the date is imported via XML from multiple sources.
I have a table called employee_punch_record that we use to store employee time clock punches.
The columns are:
employeeid,
punch_timestamp,
punch_type (In / Out),
closed (bit used as status for open or closed pay periods),
ident
Here are some examples of a record:

We are using SQL Server 2008 as our database and use Access as a GUI. I am looking to create a form in Access where employees can access their time card and request changes from management. I want to use the format from the attached screen shot for the form. I pretty much know how to do it all, the only point of complication is trying to figure out the easiest way to get the transaction punch record data on employee_punch_record into a format where I can easily populate the form in the horizontal format you see in the screen shot.
I am not super strong in SQL, but figure I can do it using a formatting table of some sort. quick and easy way to move transaction records into a more horizontally oriented record?
Subscription data are deleted...
We've got a merge replication. I have one Publisher and one Subscriber. I've made a pull subscription to a Publisher.
I've got into trouble few times occasionally 3-4 times a year. Today also I got problem with one table only one row among so many not carried out on at subscriber, even it is not find out at publisher.
This row was entered at subscriber in the morning, printed by users but in evening report it is not coming down in reports, so I had checkup and find out it is not available at any server. How?
I don’t understand, how inserted, printed data erase from subscriber but rarely. Is there any clue?
Which parameter of the subscription is responsible for it ?
Best regards.
I have create a data driven subscription that should email to to different people. It is sent to one but not the other. if I set up a normal subscription to the email it works. I can not see anywhere in the log the problem. Any Ideas on how to find out what is causing it.

I created a new data-driven subscription which successfully created a guid job on the server under jobs. So, I run the job and I get no report emailed to me. On the report manager all it says is I have 1 error. I cant figure out what the error is and where do I go to see what the error is? I know it is in some log file under MSSQL, but I dont know which log file and what I should be looking for in that log file. Any help is appreciated.
I guess, in summary, how do I debug a data-driven subscription?
