I have some code I build 2 weeks ago which I’ve been running daily but it’s suddenly stopped working with the following error.
“The table "tbl_Intraday_Tmp" has been created, but its maximum row size exceeds the allowed maximum of 8060 bytes. INSERT or UPDATE to this table will fail if the resulting row exceeds the size limit” When I google this there seems to be a related to tables with vast numbers of columns.
My table tbl_Intraday_tmp is relatively small. It has 7 columns. 1 of varchar(5), 3 of decimal(9,3) and 2 of decimal(18,0). The bit I’m puzzled with is it was working and stopped.
I don’t recall changing anything but I wouldn’t rule that out. I ‘ve inspected the source files and I don’t believe they have changed either.
DECLARE
@FileName varchar(50),
@Path varchar(50),
@SqlCmd varchar(1000)
= '',
@ASXCode varchar(5),
@Offset decimal(18,0),
[code]....
I am using MS SQL server 2008, and i have a table with 350 columns and when i m trying to create one more column its giving error with below message -
Warning: The table XXX has been created, but its maximum row size exceeds the allowed maximum of 8060 bytes.
INSERT or UPDATE to this table will fail if the resulting row exceeds the size limit.
how can i resolve this?
SQL Server 2000 8.00.760 (SP3)I've been working on a test system and the following UDF worked fine.It runs in the "current" database, and references another database onthe same server called 127-SuperQuote.CREATE FUNCTION fnGetFormattedAddress(@WorkID int)RETURNS varchar(130)ASBEGINDECLARE@Address1 As varchar(50)@ReturnAddress As varchar(130)SELECT@Address1 = [127-SuperQuote].dbo.tblCompany.Address1FROM[Work] INNER JOIN[127-SuperQuote].dbo.tblCompany ON [Work].ClientID =[127-SuperQuote].dbo.tblCompany.CompanyIDWHERE[Work].WorkID = @WorkIDIF @Address1 IS NOT NULLSET @ReturnAddress = @ReturnAddress + @Address1 + CHAR(13)+ CHAR(10)RETURN @ReturnAddressENDSo now the system has gone live and it turns out that the live"SuperQuote" database is on a different server.I've linked the server and changed the function as below, but I get anerror both in QA and when checking Syntax in the UDF builder:The number name 'Zen.SuperQuote.dbo.tblCompany' contains more than themaximum number of prefixes. The maximum is 3.CREATE FUNCTION fnGetFormattedAddress(@WorkID int)RETURNS varchar(130)ASBEGINDECLARE@Address1 As varchar(50)@ReturnAddress As varchar(130)SELECT@Address1 = Zen.SuperQuote.dbo.tblCompany.Address1FROM[Work] INNER JOINZen.SuperQuote.dbo.tblCompany ON [Work].ClientID =Zen.SuperQuote.dbo.tblCompany.CompanyIDWHERE[Work].WorkID = @WorkIDIF @Address1 IS NOT NULLSET @ReturnAddress = @ReturnAddress + @Address1 + CHAR(13)+ CHAR(10)RETURN @ReturnAddressENDHow can I get round this? By the way, I've rather simplified thefunction to ease readability. Also, I haven't posted any DDL because Idon't think that's the problem!ThanksEdward
View 2 Replies View RelatedHello ,
I want to know how can i can use the bcp coomand to import a text file into a SQL database table . The text file contains info. like servername , date , time , logininfo and description .
The problem is i cannot import that file into the table through data import wizard . The wizard is not able to separate the fields properly and the import takes place with mixed up data in different columns . The separator in the text file is colon . I even tried fixed length with manual column separation .
The text in the text file are not aligned properly as these are log files generated by the system which i am trying to import in a table .
So how can use the bcp command to specify the column length properly and seperate the fields uniformly so that the data gets imported neatly .
Any thoughts how could the command look like ?
Thank you very much .
Anita.
Hi,
I used bcp utility to import and export data between databases. These exported data is it read only? If so how can I change the parameter so that we could edit as well.
Any suggestions will be helpful. Thank you!
I'm trying to use the bcp command to bcp out a single table in a database, what is the best way to do this in the query analyzer? Thanks in advance.

I want to use the BCP utility to import data from a .dat file into my database. The .dat file contains a table called xv_Appointments containing the following fields:
AppointmentKey
SurgerySlotKey
PatientKey
Cancelled
Continuation
Deleted
TimeArrived
I would like to import only two of these fields into a table called tbl_Appointments e.g.
AppointmentKey
TimeArrived
I can't seem to get the BCP util to do this. It only works if I import all of the fields from xv_Appointments. Does anyone know if this is possible?
Thanks

I am currently in the process of transfering data from an existing SQL 6.5 server to new box. Both boxes have SQL 6.5 with SP4. I having a problem with a paticular database transfer. The Database/Object transfer utility starts and then about 20% in it says that it is complete. The transfer creates all the objects in the new server but does not transfer the data. I have manually transferred the data but I am curious if anyone else has had this problem or if this is a known bug. Just curious. Thanks

I am trying to do BCP from a comma separator .txt file to upload it into two tables. That is I want the first row (4 columns of header details ) into one table and from the second row (21 columns each of detail rows) to be uploaded into another table. I have written a batch file to upload the header details by giving the first and last column as 1.It is working fine. But when I try to upload the detail rows into another table by giving the first row as 2, the bcp is not able to read from the second row. It skips the second row and reads from the third row. This happens for all separators like pipeline separators also.So to avoid this I have to give blank 21 separators(i.e. , or |) in the second row to avoid the loss of data. Please provide a solution for this, as I cannot insist my customer to provide me a text file with blank comma in the second row.
Thanks and Regards,

The following webpage desribes the rs utility:-
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms162839.aspx
And it says that rs supports the optional parameter, -ltimeout
Can someone tell me what this timeout does/means?
We are passing in a VB.NET script file that reads an XML file that executes a series of reports. Does the timeout apply to the whole VB.NET script file, or to the individual execution of each report?
Can you also tell me, what happens if it times-out? Does SQL Server kill the SQL job generating the report? Or does it just disconnect the client from the server leaving the job to continue generating the report?
Thanks
Hi guys,
I'm trying to use the bcp utility to transfer data from an SQL Server table (CUSTOMERS) to a text file (test.txt).
Here is what I have:
DECLARE @FileName varchar(50)
SET @FileName = 'C: est.txt'
EXEC bcp BAirwaysDB..CUSTOMERS out @FileName -S<servername> -T
only I keep getting the error:
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 4
Incorrect syntax near '.'.
and when running:
bcp BAirwaysDB..CUSTOMERS out C: est.txt -S<servername> -T
on the command line I get:
SQLState = 28000, NativeError = 18456
Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Login failed for user 'RIVERAMelanie'.
SQLState = 42000, NativeError = 4060
Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Cannot open database "BAirways" requested by the login. The login failed.
Can you see where I'm going wrong with this? Any feedback would be really appreciated.
Thank you

I have been successful at setting up three or four DTS packages to runusing the DTSrun command line utility and the Windows scheduler untilnow. The latest package gives me the following error no matter what Itry.Error: -2147217355 (80041035); Provider Error: 0 (0)Error string: General error -2147217355 (80041035).Error source: Microsoft Data Transformation Services (DTS) PackageHelp file: sqldts80.hlpHelp context: 705I googled the error but got only two hits, only one of which actuallydiscussed the error. That one talked about the security and ID contextof the system agent but I can't even run the package from the commandline, never mind using the Windows chron. The DTS command line I'musing looks like this:DTSRun /S MyServerInstance /R DBName /N MyDTSPacakgeName /EVariations included /U MyUserName /P MyPassWord and a couple others.Next step would have been to use /!Y and /!C to create an encoded batchfile to use for the Windows scheduler.Any help would be most appreciated.Randy

exec master.dbo.xp_cmdshell 'bcp "SELECT code from Table" queryout http://[server]:[portno]/Sample1.aspx -T -c'
the system throws an error.
SQLState = HY000, NativeError = 0

Is it possible such a bcp command ?

Hi All,
I have a Requirement where I want to backup my ReportServer key evey night to a file. Not sure if there is already any utility available on the internet but when I went to createa simple utility I was stuck where I dont have a way to run the rskeymgmt command silently.
Does anybody know of such a utility which can be scheduled on a nightly basis or alternatively is there a way where one can run the RsKeymgmt utility from the command prompt with out being prompted for the "Are you sure want to extract the key from the Report Server? Yes (y)/ No (n)"
Cheers,

Hi Friedns
How can i wil go command line Utility in SSIS Packages any command is there plz help me
In my transactional push replication I had differences, which were reported correctly by the utility tbalediff.
I created with the tablediff utility all necessary statements to correct them.
Afterwards I ran tablediff again to check if everything is ok.
It wasn't, I got a lot of mismatches.
The reason for those mismatches are columns from type "float". It looks like that float values are not generated correctly in insert statements. We had differences in the values and from that point on we have mismatches.
Does anyone has an idea how to get rid of those reported mismatches?!?!
I will report this also as a bug.
Regards
Norbert
ok. so, i've gotten the bcp utility to work and now i'd like to string all the prompts together and place them in a job to be scheduled to autorun. i don't have much experience in this arena and appreciate any help or suggestions. I'd love to be able to run (from the command prompt) a file takes care of synchronizing all my tables.
I have an additional concern. I'd like to retain the integrity of my primary keys but I notice that if i delete the information then add new, my primary key starts where it leaves off (in other words, if del. then synch. a table with 6 records, after the synch. my primary key increments starting at7). Is there a way, using the bcp util. to update records based on the primary key, copy the key verbatim, or a way to configure the table to help out with this? I know if i drop and recreate the tables as part of the job, i'm good to go but is there away around that step?
