Log File Of Test Database Bloating
Jul 20, 2005
A test database that we used in one of our implementation pilots was
abandoned around 4 months back. The database when abandoned had a log
file size of less than 500MB. The log file has been steadily bloating
(just came to my attention) and has reached 8.5GB. The database has
not been used since abandoned 4 months back at 500MB. Considering the
fact that our live DB has a combined (data + log) file size of less
than 2GB I do not want to delete the database before exploring the
cause.
Any ideas??? Thanks and appreciate your help

We are setting up a test lab environment with 100 machines. Â We want one master testing db that gets replicated to each to run scripted application tests nightly. Â
My goal is to minimize the amount of work to move this thing to each of the 100 test machines. Â I am wondering if we need to even have the sql local and invest in a monster db server with 100 copies of the db we restore and each test machine point to their own db on that server, or if I should use db mirroring or something to get the master test db to each of those machines instead.

Greetings, I have just arrived back into the country (NZ) and back into ASP.NET.
I am having trouble with the following:An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file (file location).../Database.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share.
It has only begun since i decided i wanted to use IIS, I realise VWD comes with its own localhost, but since it is only temporary, i wanted a permanent shortcut on my desktop to link to my intranet page.
Anyone have any ideas why i am getting the above error? have searched many places on the internet and not getting any closer.
Cheers ~ J

Hello Everyone,
Hope someone will be able to help me out here.
I have a text file exported from my DTS package and it requires an '!' as a custom column delimiter.
Does anyone have any idea how I can use the '!' mark instead of the Tab or Vertical Bar as my Column Delimiter?
Would appreciate any suggestions.
Thanks,
Kay

Two questions actually ...
1) Need a simple routine or system function for testing for or verifying the existence of a file or folder on the local server's file system. Returning a simple boolean value or 1 or 0 would be fine.
2) Need a syntax and use description of the new "master.dbo.xp_create_subdir" function ... anyone have some documentation or links? MS technet and MSDN have nothing.
Thanx

Now that we have a good programming model in SSIS - the question is whether to write automated unit tests for your packages, and would it generally be a good idea for packages?
Also - if yes to write tests - then where to find more informations regarding How to accomplish that?

iam planning to test it through c# code as well as manually also.
SSIS source : consist of 7 tables
SSIS destination :consist of 7 tables
Using c# code iam trying to run ssis package through batch file.
i am putting expected rowcount, column count in an excel file and comparing same with destination tables by writing query implementing ADO.Net concept.
am i going right way ,can any one suggest best and productive way to test the ssis package .
what are the other things i need to test it.
do any one can add test cases to it.
S.No
Test Case
1
Verify all the tables have been imported.
2
Verify all the rows in each table have been imported.
3
Verify all the columns specified in source query for each table have been imported
4
Verify all the data has been received without any truncation for each column.
5
Verify the schema at source and destination
6
Verify the time taken /speed for data transfer
7
Fields truncated due to difference in length of the field at destination.

Hello all-I need to check to see if the database is running before I begin all sorts of processing and figured I would do something like this. Any better ways to do this? I want to check to see if the db is up and running and also check to make sure I can connect to it.

Hi everybody
Have you ever noticed that you can create database with strange and unusual name with Enterprise manager but not with Query Analizer and through T-SQL code!!?
for example try to create database with name &%Test$
it will be created as i said earlier throgh Database Wizard in Enterprise manager but if you Execute :
Create Database &%Test$
you will receive the following error:
Server: Msg 170, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Line 1: Incorrect syntax near '&'.

Hi,
I'm not very asp.net savy and could not find any solid examples of what I need done. I have one text box on my page and one submit button. I would like the information entered from the text box to go into a SQL database when clicking on the submit button. I'm not sure what the exact coding should be in order to get this operating the way I want. I'm coding in VB, this is what I have so far:<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head runat="server"><title>Untitled Page</title>
<script language="javascript" type="text/javascript">
// <!CDATA[function Submit1_onclick() {
}
// ]]></script>
</head>
<body>
<form id="form1" runat="server">
<div>
<input id="Text1" type="text" /><br />
<input id="Submit1" type="submit" value="submit" onclick="return Submit1_onclick()" /></div></form>
</body>
</html>
Thanks,
Derek

Hi,
I have a database on the server which is in production and I would like to create another copy and use it for testing purpose. so the application can point to the test database for testing purpose.
What is the best way to do? I guess I have to name the test one with different name right?
can I do it without detach the production one? or just copy the database - tables structures from the currnet one?
Thanks!

I have phrased this question here once before but no one could answer it, so please let me know if you think you know what the problem is.
I have a Test Environment on Server2 restored from the production environment on Server1. Production is publishing to a subscriber on Server3. The problem is that even though I have truncate on checkpoint = TRUE set for the Test environment, the log fills up (all the way, not even truncate transaction with no_log fixes it).
The log size is 750MB, with a data portion of about 3GB. Is this somehow related to the fact that SQL Server still thinks the tables in the test environment are marked for replication? I have noticed it believes this becuase I am not allowed to drop tables on Test, even though Test is not even set up as a publishing database.
Other information:
1) The recovery interval on Server2 is 3 minutes.
2) I am frustrated
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
Is there any tool available to migrate the data from the SQL Server
test database to SQL Server production database. Data Migration should
be based on a condition which can be given as an input for a table by
the user. The dependant tables also should be migrated based on the
condition. i.e data subsetting based on the matching conditions.
Ex : Salary > 2000
The rows of the table which matches the condition alone need to be
migrated for the corresponding table. Also its dependant table's
rows should be migrated based on the given condition. Please help me
with a tool which can automate this.
Thanks,

Hello,
I have an asp.net application which connects to SQL Server 2005 database.
One out of 15 times (approx) the applicaiton does not make connection to the database and an exception is thrown.
I am not sure how to debug this. Should I write some code which can make connections in a loop to test how much stress the sever can handle?
Kindly suggest some ideas. Thanks.

Database 'TEST' is already open and can only have one user at a time.
I also tried this command but having the same error.
Use Master
GO
Select * from master.sys.sysprocesses
Where spid > 50
            And dbid=DB_ID (‘StuckDB’))  -- replace with your database name

I am a SQL lightweight and I tried to update the data on the test SQL server with the data on the production server and now the test SQL server won't start.
I was trying to move a sql database from our production server to our test server and things got mucked up. I think where I went wrong is that I tried to backup the database on the Production server and then restore it to the test server. I think I should have backup the production server and then detached the databases from the test server and then attached the backups. I got in a hurry and had an attitude that SQL is so good that if I mess up, I can recover.
These are the databases I recovered to test server:
Builder
CSales
CIB
Master
Model
MSDBdata
Now SQL server won€™t start and I get the error message that the database Model is in the middle of being restored. We are on SQL 2000. I tried to start from a command line with the €“f switch and it still can€™t come up.
Should I reinstall SQL and then attach the databases?
Do I need to bring over the Master, Model and MSDBdata data bases from the production servers.

I am attempting to create a Test db from a full backup of the production db. With 2012, I cannot do it the the way i had done it in previous versions (and now i understand why because of Logical names).
The Test db runs in the same instance as Prod db.
I attempted to run this but come up with errors. This is what i executed:
RESTORE DATABASE TEST FROM DISK = 'E:<path>FULL.BAK'
WITH REPLACE, RECOVERY,
MOVE 'PROD' TO 'E:<path>TEST.MDF';
The errors are all cannot execute due to PROD is in use.
