My transaction log is full.
I pushed the Truncate Log button, didn't do anything
I backed up the database (full backup), didn't help
I expanded the Log size from 300MB to 350MB and my 50MB became unavailable in a few seconds.
There is not much current activity out there.
My Database Log file Size Increased dramatically upto 5GB. My Data file size is only around 600MB. Almost my Harddisk space occupied fully by log file. How I reduce the log file size. Anyone can give me some tips?.
Hi, I run the following command , it went well but i didnt find a file authors.txt where will i find this authors.txt exec master.. xp_cmdshell "bcp pubs..authors out authors.txt -c -Sserver -Uuser -Ppwd"
Our branch office in Europe has sent full 'backup' file of capacity 25GB. I have to restore this backup to our database. Their database is 'Candidate' and our database is 'client'. Both these databases have different logical names and physical names.
The following Batch script only I hv executed,
RESTORE DATABASE Client FROM DISK = 'd:dumppaw01dump.bak' WITH MOVE 'candidatedata' TO 'e:mssqldataclient_data.mdf', MOVE 'candidatelog' TO 'd:mssqllogclient_log.ldf', REPLACE
Can anybody tell me, what I have executed above is correct or not. Now restoration is going on for more than an hr. Still it is going on. Is there any other way to restore this backup set very fastly.
Our server has got very good hardware setup. Good amount of hard disk space. 4GB RAM Memory. Running 4 processors. No other service is running apart from SQL Server. Right now nobody is accessing the server.
How long it will take to restore this backupset?. This is urgent please.
We have to copy data from files from Novell system to Sql sever 2000. I use DTS for that. The problem is that Novell system files(the way they are extracted) has end of file character. Because of this the DTS package fails. But if we open the file, get rid of the end of file character (looks like square in wordpad), the package runs fine. Is there any way to make DTS identify this character as end of file and ignore it? We have hundreds of files to move on regular basis and some of the files are large (> 10 MB) so that we cannot open it or see it.

Hi, In sql 7.0 , i would like to create a database with the size of 10Gb, in my server couple of databases already exist. How do i know how much free space is there in File group. we are having only one file group i.e PRIMARY. Could anyone pls tell me about this. Thank u.
Other than using the -o parameter of ISQL, is there any way to mimic the DBMS_OUTPUT.PUT_FILE capability that exists in ORACLE (also set serveroutput xxx). I have a big need to run both queries and stored procedures and have the output placed in a flat file. This flat file will then be edited and loaded into another SQLServer 7.0 table. Basically, SP or SQL stmt -> output to flat file -> external manipulation -> SQL table Thanks in advance.

I need to parameterize some values in the data flow so that i can chnage the values directly in parameter file and re run the data flow for new value in the passed in the parameter. This can be easy for other who do not know about the flow of data flow task as to where to change the variable/parameter.
How can this be accomplished. I want the data flow task to refer to this file before it starts executing and pick the appropriate value from the file.
Or is their any better way to accompalish what i want to do here in SSIS.???
Hi, I am trying to import a excel file in to my database... The improt works fine.. But some of the data is missing though it is present in the excel spread sheet.
I have some data for cusip which are 9 characters and they be a combination of numbers wiht a letter.. for eg.. 123456789 or 12345R789. And in the my spread sheet there are around 73 rows.. until the 62 row it has numbers like 123456789 and from the 62 to 73 it has 12345R789 this is an just example but the data is in that format.
I went to sqlServer 2005 and imported the data using Tasks -ImportData and selected my excel spreadsheet, the user name and password for the database and i selected the sheet i want to import.. and when i preview the data ... Until the 62 row i can see the numbers and after that i cannot see any data in that column.... and when i import the data from 62 row the value is NULL...
So can some please tell me what going on why isnt that data been recognised by the importer in sql server.
Hi, I have a excel file which i want to import the data to sql server... The sql server Data type for that particular column is
varchar and it has a contraint too like the data should be in this fashion 00000-0000 or 00000...
but when i try to import the data from the excel to sql server... 08545 just becomes 8545 (cause excel is treating it as a float) and so my insert fails...

hi, I have settup up sql mail and did the following: 1. created an E-mail account and configured Out look by creating a pop3 mail profile. tested it by sending and receiving mail, that is ook 2. I Created one domain account for MSsqlserver and Sql Agent service. both services use same account and start automatically in the control panel-services 3. I used the profile that I created in outlook to test the sql mail but got an error: Error 22030 : A MAPI error ( error number:273) occurred: MapiLogon Ex Failed due to MAPI Error 273: MAPI Logon Failed
I really do not know what went wrong. I followed the steps from bol and still having a problem. Am I missing something.
I do have a valid email account I do have a valid domain account I tested outlook using the email account and it worked. so why sql server does not recognise MAPI.
My next question, How to configure MAPI in Sql server if what I did was wrong.

Hello, I am facing a huge problem in my sql server database using access as a front end.The main problem is trying to execute queries "views" ,since they reside on sql server now,and using variables or parameters in reports and forms to filter on this query. Ex. how can the following be implemented using the same query but in sql server? Access ------ SELECT MAT_Charts.YYYYMM FROM MAT_Charts WHERE ((([Area_Code] & "-" & [GROUP_CODE])=[Reports]![MAT_Chart_C1].[MAT_Key])) GROUP BY MAT_Charts.YYYYMM;
It is specifically this statement in which I am interested: [GROUP_CODE])=[Reports]![MAT_Chart_C1].[MAT_Key]))
