Making A Batch File That Will Start A Active Script ...( More)
Jul 3, 2000
Hi!
I would first like to thank the person (Ray) who answered my question and also those who read it and tried to find an answer to it.
But, it didn't quite help me much, so I'll ask again; reformulate my question.
Here it goes:
I would like to know if I can make a batch file, that excutes or starts an active script (in enterprise manager go to SQL Server Group/Management/SQL Server Agent/jobs/Dbl-click on a job/then go to the steps tab and you will see that the type of the job is an active script. Or, try to see if you have an active script job).
P.S. It's not a SQL script (*.sql).
What I want to do is to start that job from a batch file.
If I can, can you give me more info on how to do it (command line, parameters), a web site, anything that can help me do that.
If I cannot do that, let me know please.
Thanks a lot!
Hi again! I would like to thank the 2 persons which I had an answer from my previous question first. Thanks a lot !
But, it didn't quite answer my question so I'll give a bit more info. I would like to know if I can make a batch file, that excutes or starts an active script in SQL Server Agent (that is in SQL Enterprise Manager). If I can, can you give me more info on how to do it (command line, parameters), a web site, anything that can help me to that.
If I cannot do that, let me know please. Thanks a lot!

I need to take a variable from a tabel in SQL Server pass to a Batch file and execute the batch file. Right now I can exec the batch file with XP_CMDSHELL but how can I pass the variable to the batch file and loop through all the variables.
I am using the following batch file to execute a script that creates a db and all its objects in the local sql express:
sqlcmd -S (local)SQLExpress -i C:CreateDB.sql
This works fine, but I'm wondering if there's an easy way to put the script in the batch file, so users don't have to worry about putting the script in the C drive. I tried getting rid of the i parameter and pasting the script from the sql file into the batch file, but it didn't work.
I work on a product installed on a CD ROM. I would like, if the costumer installs our product for a SQL Server database, to know how, with a batch, starts the necessary SQL Services if they aren't started yet when we run our Java application.
Hi all, I have the "Northwind" database in my Sql Server Management Studio Express.
In my C:ProSSEAppsSamplesForChapter02Chapter02 folder, I have the following 2 files: (1) ListColumnValues (MS-DOS Batch File) sqlcmd -S .sqlexpress -v DBName = "Northwind" CName = "CompanyName" TName = "Shippers" -i c:prosseappschapter02ListListColumnVales.sql -o c:prosseappschapter02ColumnValuesOut.rpt (2) ListColumnValues (Microsoft SQL Server Query File) USE $(Northwind) GO SELECT $(CompanyName) FROM $(Shippers) GO When I ran the following SQLcmd: C:ProSSEAppsSamplesForChapter02Chapter02>ListColumnValues.bat I got the following "ColumnValuesOut.rpt" with error messages:
'Northwind' scripting variable not defined. Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Server L1P2P3SQLEXPRESS, Line 1 Incorrect syntax near '$'. 'CompanyName' scripting variable not defined. 'Shippers' scripting variable not defined. Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Server L1P2P3SQLEXPRESS, Line 1 Incorrect syntax near 'CompanyName'.
I copied these T-SQL statements from a book and I do not know how to correct them. Please help and tell me how to correct these errors.

Can someone show me an example of the syntax required to execute multiple BCP commands within the same batch (*.bat) file?
Sorry if this is a bit of a basic question, but not being a programmer by profession, I need to plead ignorance. I've tried a few things, but I just can't seem to figure it out.
I need a small help from u all. I need a Windows batch file script which does the ftp to remote machine and "puts" a file say "data.xls" from a predefined dir say "c:uploads" and puts on the database server "d:dumps".
I have a windows batch file that executes a SQL Server bcp command. Iwould like to obtain a return code if the bcp command fails. However,I cannot seem to find the return code (if any) for bcp. For example,if the bcp command is improperly formatted, or has a bad password, Iwant the batch file to return an error. Right now, my batch filesimply executes and returns success, even when the bcp command fails.Has anyone run into this before?Thanks!
We have database when trying to make read only throwing below error: with stack dump
Location: recovery.cpp:4517 Expression: m_recoveryUnit->IsIntendedUpdateable () SPID: 51 Process ID: 6448 Msg 926, Level 14, State 1, Line 1 Database 'XXXX' cannot be opened. It has been marked SUSPECT by recovery.
See the SQL Server errorlog for more information. Msg 5069, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 ALTER DATABASE statement failed. Msg 3624, Level 20, State 1, Line 1
A system assertion check has failed. Check the SQL Server error log for details. Typically, an assertion failure is caused by a software bug or data corruption. To check for database corruption, consider running DBCC CHECKDB. If you agreed to send dumps to Microsoft during setup, a mini dump will be sent to Microsoft. An update might be available from Microsoft in the latest Service Pack or in a QFE from Technical Support.
Msg 3313, Level 21, State 2, Line 1
During redoing of a logged operation in database 'XXXX', an error occurred at log record ID (0:0:0). Typically, the specific failure is previously logged as an error in the Windows Event Log service. Restore the database from a full backup, or repair the database.
Msg 3414, Level 21, State 1, Line 1
An error occurred during recovery, preventing the database 'XXXX' (database ID 7) from restarting. Diagnose the recovery errors and fix them, or restore from a known good backup. If errors are not corrected or expected, contact Technical Support.
Investigation DONE:
- DBcc checkdb shown Clean - database is online and able to access -Detached database and attached with rebuild log, still could not bring database read_only

Batch file will copy some things from all of the servers to one server.

I'm trying schedule a batch file to run as a job from sql server agent. The batch file copies files from one server directory to a directory on another server. The batch file works properly when executed directly. The job is being executed under the sql service account login. I've given the service account access to both the source and destination directories.
When I try to run the job it fails with an "Access is denied" error on both the source and destination directories (as read from job history).
Ok.. I thought I could do this but I can't get this to work.. I need to create a batch file to run an sql update statement.. This is simple but I can't get it to wortk.. How do I do it?

Hi All, I would like to embed some stored procedures in a batch file and execute it from the command prompt on windows. I have no idea of how to embed a stored proc in a .bat file. Can you please redirect me to the solution to this?
Is it possible using T-SQL to run a batch file located on different server, ie. PC1 has SQL Server on it, PC2 has the batchfile, I need to run the batchfile stored on PC2 on PC1.
Is it possible to use sql to execute a batch file? I would like toexecute the following "C:BTWartend.exe /f=C:BTWToolboxFormatscarnum.btw /p", 6Thanks,Matt
I just created batch file to restart analysis services and the job for executing this bat file. <<Batch File >> NET STOP "SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER)" NET START "SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER)"
And I did the following step in sql agent: Create the job > Select CmdExec Job > In commend section, I wrote CALL C:/RestartSSAS.bat
When I run this job, it seems everything went right but at the end, the job was filed. However, I don't see any error on this step since the service was stopped and started successfully. The below is the error message:
Executed as user: D20WKZC1SYSTEM. C:WINDOWSsystem32>NET STOP "SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER)" The SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER) service was stopped successfully. C:WINDOWSsystem32>NET START "SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER)"The SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER) service is starting. The SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER) service was started successfully. Process Exit Code 0. The step failed.
I've also tried to create the package using 'Execute Process Task ' and run it. And it's successful but when I schedule it in sql agent then it failes.
Any thoughts? Please advise me and thanks in advance.
