I need to set up an automatic email notification. Right now, I have a subscription that is working. The subscription runs a report and puts the resulting pdf into a folder. I need a way to notify users (preferrably in an Outlook distribution list) when the pdf is created. I'm amazed that this basic feature is not built into the subscription capabilities.
Can anyone please tell me how to best accomplish this? I'm familiar with vb.net if that helps.
Hello i am new to sqlserver 2000.i have list of email id in a table. need to fetch that emailid and send mail to the appropriate id's.any body knows how to write job schedule for this task.Ideas are welcome
I am trying to set up the email notification system in SQL server 2000, but im having some problems. Mainly, im having problems with setting up an email account in the first place (there is a dedicated mail box, but the one im working with is a different box altogether).
If anyone could help fathom this out from start to finish i would be really grateful.
Is there a handy-dandy way for me to be able, from a stored procedure, to capture the notification email address for a user associated with a job?
I need to send an email out from a stored procedure, and I want it to be set up to send to the same user that is set up in the job that calls the stored procedure.
the same notification stored proc will be used in multiple jobs, but the jobs are already set up with a notification email to be sent to the defined users "on completion" (error or not). I want a separate email to be sent, but I want to use xp_Sendmail because I have to perform a select who's output I want to appear in the body of the email (and unless I am missing something, I have no control over the body of the standard "job completion" email).
I would prefer to NOT have to "hard code" the user email address in the stored proc that calls xp_sendmail, OR to put it in some user table in the database, when the user I want to send it to will always be the same one defined in at the JOB level in Enterprise Manager.
Any thoughts? Thanks in advance for your instantaneous and informative answer-packed responses! ;)
I just wondered that now SQL Mail is classed as a legacy solution for email, does anyone know how to set up Notification Services to send email once a job has completed e.g. Backup or reindex?
I have tried to find a tutorial but with no joy so far!
I want to setup a SMTP using gmail. How to configure it, it says,
In your email client software, under Outgoing mail, set the SMTP server to smtp.gmail.com. Set the your username is yourgooglemailname@gmail.com and make sure "Use username and password" is checked. Also check off "TLS" under "Use secure connection." I tried to do this in code:
Dim htmlMessage As MailMessage
Dim mySmtpClient As SmtpClient
htmlMessage = New MailMessage(From, SendTo, Subject, Body)
htmlMessage.IsBodyHtml = IsBodyHTML
mySmtpClient = New SmtpClient(Server)
Dim myCred As New System.Net.NetworkCredential("myemail@gmail.com", "mypassword") 'CredentialCache
I have a strange problem with a scheduled task failing with the following:
"Unable to send completion notification email to operator with email name '' for task 2780, 'Scheduled Update'"
This job is the same across several servers and the job runs on the other servers. This is a bit frustrating... I cannot seem to find the difference that is causing the problem.
The funny thing is that I am not using SQLMail or anything to notify anyone regardless if the job succeeds or fails.
within sql server management studio... we have set up a few sql scripts to run at 2am every night (sql server agent > under jobs)... although it has been successful each night, we'd like to setup sql server agent to automatically email success and failure notifications to our email boxes.
i see under the properties of sql server agent > jobs > properties of a job > there is section that says Notifications but then it doesnt really have a place to type in which email we want to send them to? some reading material or instructions greatly appreciated

I am in process of setting up job failure notification and one of the requirements that I have is to send notification to multiple users. I would appreciate any suggestion. One of the possible ways would be to create some sort of group account on exchange server with all users added as members. Is there anyway though where I could use users' individual accounts and based on that forward notification to them?
We are maintaining a database of drivers, and we are looking for a script or procedure that will automatically notify certain users of the list of drivers who are in need of a recheck or driver's license has expired. I am new to this , so any help you can give would be greatly appreciated
I receive the following error when trying to invoke xp_sendmail 'xp_sendmail: failed with mail error 0x80070005'. However, for alert notifications the email works fine. SQL is using an alias account to send mail. This account doesn't have any funny characters. Any ideas why the alert system works but xp_sendmail does not? The invokation of xp_sendmail is being done by SA.
I have a query which sends email notification of count of pending name and suggested name.. on a daily basis. So this works fine but now I want like if the pending and suggested are ' o count' I don't want the email notification. It should not send an email, if it is o count, but if we have the number for pending and suggested this email should be sent.
I have a report that gets sends out through a subscription and sometimes the report has multiple pages and all those pages appear within one email.Is it possible to set the subscription in such a way that an email is sent per page when the subscription executes.
Under IIS SMTP I can set bounced email redirect etc. how to do that with dbmail, the idea is I can get the list of bounced emails somewhere so I can create a report.
what I want to achieve is to load a text file that has email addreses from disk and using the email addresses in the text file look it up against the email addresses in the database table then once matched delete all the users in the table whose email address were in the text file.
I also want to update some users using a different text file.
My SQL server email job notifications have stopped working, but mails sent through the xp_sendmail command still work.
The only thing that has changed recently is the SQL server agent account passwords have been changed, these accounts are normal win2000 domain accounts.
I wish to know if there is anyway to find out if a perticular job on SQL Agent was executed or not. I am not looking for Log History of the job, but, something like a trigger that will fire an email to notify that a perticular job that was scheduled to run at a certain time did not run.
To explain in detail, I have a job that is scheduled to run every 15 min. This job is crutial and I wish to be notified if the job was not run for some reason or other. I already have a program that delivers me the history log of the job each day, but, checking history to see if the job ran or not every 15 min is not possible. Again, I am not talking about the job success or failure, but the fact that the job has run or not - thats it !
If you are suggesting a SMO object, I will appriciate if you provide me with the code or alternatively a source to refer.

I have set up SQL Mail on a SQL 7.0 box and I can successfully schedule tasks and receive e-mails from them. However, when I try to get mail notification from a scheduled DTS package I run into problems and no mail is sent. Under Profile Name the only item selectable is Microsoft Outlook. I've tried selecting this as well as leaving the profile blank and nothing seems to work. We use POP3 server and Microsoft Messaging. Our corporate e-mail system is Notes so we forward mail through the POP3 server via Internet mail to our Lotus Notes system.
Any suggestions so that we could get our DTS mail notification working? Anything I could try that I haven't?
