I'm running into a curious situation here and I was wondering if anyone had some ideas on directions to investigate.
To set up our situation, we are running SQL Server 2005 Standard edition on Windows 2003 Enterprise Edition for 64bit processor. In Dev, winver says V5.2 R2 and we're at SP1. I am told, but cannot verify that the rest of our environments (test, load, stage, prod) are patched to the same level. I do know they are all 64 bit processors and running the 64bit OS. The database servers are all at
Product version 9.00.3027.00
Product level SP2
edition Standard Edition (64-bit)
Our SSIS packages are deployed and stored in SQL server using dtsinstall. I do not know if the DBAs check the "Validate packages after installation." but I will assume they do not. Packages are invoked using dtexec in a manner like "D:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server (x86)90DTSBinndtexec.exe" /sq MyPackage /ser MyServer
All of this has been working fine but we've now had two issues where our packages fail to validate. The first was a deployment to production. The same build had been applied to identical environments and processed fine there. However, one package of the 12 deployed to production failed to validate as the built-in Audit dataflow component decided the length for the audit name is not valid for the specified lineage item. We attributed that to a fluke run as we could not reproduce the issue.
Yesterday a different package ran in our test environment. It failed out due to data issues but the important thing is the package actually passed validation and failed at run-time due to bad data. The testers corrected the data issues and this morning when the package (no code changes made to it) was reran it failed to validate with
'The metadata for "[dbo].[MY_TABLE]" cannot be retrieved. Make sure the object name is correct and the object exists.'
* The person invoking the package is a DBA so permissions shouldn't be an issue.
* The code has not changed between yesterday and today.
* The package's configurations in SQL Server have not changed
* The table does exist
To summarize, it validated yesterday and today it fails to validate with no changes to the code. I've asked the DBAs to reprocess the job and see whether the package blows up but in the meanwhile, any thoughts on things to look into? I'm less familar with using SQL Server as the package repository as my last place we used the file system exclusively so that and the possibility of 64bit quirkiness are my current guesses but they are just guesses.
We have 2 Physical Servers (A and B) on which we have installed the SQL Server, one primary (A) and other as secondary (B). And there is a cluster (C) available to acces the running server. I have created some SSIS packages which we installed on the Server A (Primary), and created the job on the cluster server which initiates the SSIS packages, whcih are installed in the File System.
The problem i am facing is the some thing related to Connection time out. And interestingly i am not getting this error Always. Approxiamtely For Every 5 Times once it;s Failing. I am copying the errors Which i encountered in the different runs.
The thing i am confused is why i am not geting the error all the time? And Why am i getting this error all the time in a different data flow task. My SSIS Package structure is I have created one master package and 6 Child packages. I am getting the connection string for the Data base from the Configuration file which is defined in the XML File.
The connection string that i am using is
Data Source=<<server name>>;User ID=DOMAINuser;Initial Catalog=DatabaseName;Provider=SQLNCLI.1;Integrated Security=SSPI;

I have 2 DTS packages that import data from an Access database that have recently started failing. They run fine manually in DTS, but not manually as a job. They get an "unspecified error." These were running fine, until we installed Outlook and started to add Outlook mail to SQL.
Originally, Administrator was the owner and that is how the jobs were run. We changed to SQLAdmin for the SQLAgent to start under, and I changed the owner of the jobs to SQLAdmin. This works for all jobs but these 2. I thought maybe SQLAdmin could not get to the Access database, but it can. I spell out the path for the database, I don't use any mappings. I recreated the jobs logged in as SQLAdmin, and they still do not work as jobs.
Any ideas are much appreciated!! Thanks in advance!! Karen
Today when I came into work, I noticed all of my jobs failed on a particular server. I tried to manually kick off the packages, but to no avail. Both the job history and the error message from the packages state a timeout error. Any idea on this? Also, I have no problem running a query from query analyzer...even on a remote machine. Any help would be appreciated Trevor
In all packages they make connections to a SQL 2005 db which sits on the same instance as which the packages are being deployed. In the Child packages these connections have the connection string set as a package property variable in Package configs and in the Parent package this variable exists correctly. This variable in the Parent is itself defined in a PackageConfig which uses SQL Server as the holder for the configuration.
When I deploy the packages the connections to in the child packages fail, one connection by timing out, another with an acquire connection failure.
I have set the DelayValidation to false on all connections but it made no difference. I have also increased the timeout to 180s but again still a failure. When I deploy the parent package on its own it is successful, however when the child packages are deployed on their own these connections again fail to validate due to a timeout and connection failure, yet they are using the same connections defined in the parent.
The child packages are no larger than other single packags that I have deployed successfully with the same connection to the same server.
Is there anything special that I should be aware of regarding deployment of parent and child packages.
I have an application which is providing printing facility using a custom hardware interface device. Whenever a print is required user punches in his ID number into the hardware device, and hence an underlying application gets the event and it calls a managed DLL, which inturn calls the Reporting services webservice on the same server. Problem starts after some days (typically after 2 -3 days), when the server response becomes slow and the aspnet_wp.exe restarts every now and then and after this sequence of happening, finally it crashes with some event in application in event log which reads: The server was unable to allocate from the system nonpaged pool because the pool was empty.
Also many times the applications log file reads : There is an error in XML document (1, 948). I think this error starts when the aspnet_wp.exe is restarting, but I am not sure.
The server operating system is Windows 2000 SP-4, MS SQL Server 2000 Standard Edition SP-4, MS Reporting Services 2000 Standard SP-2 with .Net Framework v1.1 The Server is running many applications apart from the ones listed above and there is a moderate usage of TCP/IP sockets for communicating with certain hardware devices. Please help me out!
I have only intermittent success with debugging CLR stored procs. Sometimes it works, and sometimes it does not.
When debugging does not start, the output ends at the line: Auto-attach to process '[516] sqlservr.exe' on machine 'dcnr-ait669sell' succeeded.
The visual studio still shows running, but it never gets to a breakpoint and never shows another line on the output. Processor usage is zero.
To start debugging, I have to restart SQL Server, restart the Visual Studio, and (probably) restart the machine. Essentially, I just mess with things until it starts. I have seen it start after a long while when I just let it sit, but I have let it sit for several hours without starting.
The Visual Studio will not respond to the Debug > Stop Debugging menu item. It eventually shows a €œStop Now€? box that says that it will disappear when debugging stops, but it never stops.
I am using SQL Server on my local machine for debugging.
I have developed a stored procedure that filters a view that is a union of several different tables. This provides status information for items across our warehouse management system. This system seems to work very well and normally processes results very quickly (< 3 seconds). However, occasionally (every few days) we begin to see timeouts on the query after 3 minutes of processing. I can watch this process in SQL Profiler and see that the query is timing out after 180 seconds, which is the timeout we have for the query within the DAL. When I copy the line from the SQL Profiler and execute it directly in SSMS, the query executes in less than 2 seconds. I first thought that somehow this had to do with execution plans, but when I try to reload the page again, which executes the query, it still times out. I did add a OPTION(KEEPFIXED PLAN) to the sproc, and that seemed to speed things up for the time, but I am not sure if this is even the problem and what the optimal solution would be. Any thoughts spring to mind? Thanks, Steve
Here's a little background on the query. I have a list of documents by an id number in one table and the description of the sheets in another table. It's a one to many relationship, so for each description, there may be multiple entries in the documents table that it applies to. For example:
So the query I am using uses a left join to combine the data from the one table into the other. There might not be an entry for the description, so for some Document entries, the description field may be blank. For some reason, certain queries take about 2 minutes longer than others who retreive 5 times the information.
In SQL Manager, is says "Executing Query. Waiting for response from data source." After about 20 seconds it says "Retrieving Data..." then about a minute later, it finally comes up with the data. I can select another parent that has a lot more items and it comes up in about 3 seconds max.
It's running on SQL Server 2005 with 2GB of RAM.
Any suggestions on tracking down the reason for the slowness would be great.
Recently the Agent on our production server has exhibited a condition where the agent history is missing on around 80% of our jobs. The jobs still run but no history, we have cycled the services, rebooted etc but nothing rememdies the issue.
Has anyone else ever ecountered this with SS and if so do you have a solution?
SQL Server is cutting off client connections intermittently and I'm having a hard time figuring out why. Restarting the SQL server service fixes the issue for a few days but then it happens again. It's SQL Server 2005 on Windows SBS 2003 with XP and Win2000 clients connecting. Clients connect via a DSN file--they run an Access database. I run daily backups and all maintenance tasks on the databases and these happen without any errors.
Here are some of the error messages I get from the SQL Log: Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE'. [CLIENT: 192.168.1.16]
Error: 18056, Severity: 20, State: 23.
The client was unable to reuse a session with SPID 72, which had been reset for conection pooling. This error may have been caused by an earlier operation failing. Check the error logs for failed operations immediately before this error message.
The SQL Network Interface library could not deregister the Service Principal Name (SPN) for the SQL Server service. Error: 0x862. Administrator should deregister this SPN manually to avoid client authentication errors.
And a recurring error in the SQL Agent Log: [165] ODBC Error: 0, Driver's SQLAllocHandle on SQL_HANDLE_ENV failed [SQLSTATE IM004]
any clues into how i can further troubleshoot would be appreciated. I can't reproduce the error on command but it is bound to happen "randomly" during business hours and i really need it to stop. any insight appreciated.
I have a basic load proc (loading a staging area.) that truncates a target table just before inserting fresh data in said table, all wrapped in a distributed transaction. What happens (only with certain tables and very inconsistently.) is the truncate will fail (no error) and duplicate data ends up in the target table since no wipe actually occurs. This proc only started having this issue when we went from SQL 2008 to SQL 2014.
We have written a multithreaded application in which we are maintaining separate Database connections for each thread. these connections are opened and closed at the start and exit of the thread.
We have observed that even if there is only one thread running ( application thread), execution of simple Select queries some times throws Native exception(Error - 0xc0000005 ).
This error comes intermittently. Execution of same query doesn't throw exception.
Further investigation by breaking the debug at the time of native exception and then looking into the stack trace shows that native exception has occured at one of the Native API (CompileQueryPlan() ) which is being called implicitly by the SQL Mobile.
Each time when we see native exception stack trace shows failure at CompileQueryPlan() call.
Let me know if this is a known defect in SQL Mobile 2005 or there is something else that is causing native exception.
I've run into a problem with SSIS packages wherein tasks that write or copy files, or create or delete directories, quit execution without any hint of an error nor a failure message, when called from an ASP.NET 2.0 application running on any other machine than the one where the package was created from. By all indications it appeared to be an identity/permissions problem.
Our application involves a separate web server and database server. Both have SQL Server 2005 installed, but the application server originally only had Integration services. The packages are file system-deployed on the application server, and are called using Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime methods. For all packages that involve file system tasks, the above problem occurs.
When the above packages are run using the command prompt (either DTEXEC or DTEXECUI) the packages execute just fine. This is expected since we are using an administrative account. However when a ShellExecute of the same command is called from ASP.NET, the same problem occurs.
I've tried giving administrative permissions to the ASPNET worker process user to no avail.
I have likewise attempted to use the SQL Server Agent job approach but that approach might not be acceptable for our clients since it means installing SQL Server 2005 Database services on the application server.
I have read the relevant threads in this forum, namely http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1044739&SiteID=1 and http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=927084&SiteID=1 but failed to find any solution appropriate for our set up.
We manage some SSIS servers, which has only SSIS and SSIS tools installed on them and not the sql server DB.
SSIS packages and configuration files are deployed on a NAS. We run the SSIS packages through DTEXEC by logging in to the server.
We want to allow developers to run their packages on their own on the server, but at the same time we dont want to give them physical access on the server i.e we do not want to add them into RDP users list on server properties. We want them to allow running their packages remotely on the server.
One way We could think of is by using powershell remoting and we are working on that. But is there any other way or any tool already present for the same.
I am working on a query application, and I want to do syntax validation before I submit the dynamically sql to the database. The expression will include ANDs, ORs, IN, (,),>,<,etc. Anyone done this already? any code snippets?

Now to test errors comming back on the aueue i sed to make the xml tags wrong, then the target would send a error back on the queue with xml validation failed (both queues have validation well_formed_xml). However now in testing i cannot even send the message i get an invalid xml error straight away, i am not sure why this is , i know the xml is not valid but the send used to work and i would get an erro rback, as the xml is validated by the ttarget, but this no longer works it ails strainght away, with no thing in any queue. What could be causing this ?
I think I have read online a recommendation about not using XML VALIDATION in a production environment, due to performance reasons. Is it recommended using other that NONE validation in production, and is there available documentation for a scale that grades performance hits for various types of validations?
Afternoon all,I want my SQL SP to do some validation on a form submit to do the following before committing to the table.If email address (txt.Email.Text) doesn't exist in the table, commit values.if email address (txt.Email.Text) does exist and option (radOptions.SelectedValue) equals 1, print message to say 'you're already subscribed'if email address (txt.Email.Text) does exist and option (radOptions.SelectedValue) equals 0, print message to say 'you're not subscribed'if email address (txt.Email.Text) does exist and option (radOptions.SelectedValue) equals 1 or 0, update row to 0 or 1 (depending on subscribe or unsubscribe - 1 = subscribed, 0 = unsubscribed) The simple SP is currently:ALTER procedure [dbo].[sp_customerSignups]@name varchar(50),@email varchar (50),@subscribed intasBEGININSERT INTO tblCustomerSignups(Name, EmailAddress, Subscribed)VALUES(@name, @email, @subscribed)END Does anyone have the correct syntax for this?Thanks,Brett

I have a table of contact details containing the usual name, adresss etc fields.
I want to validate the fields Country and telephone together so that fopr example if country = 'UNITED KINGDOM' the telephone has to begin with +44 if it doesnt i want it to add the +44!
I can do this through writing a little program but just wanted to explore the possibility of doing this with SQL or functions already available with MSSQL Server
I need to make sure that a string contains at least one number, at least one letter and has no repeating chars. Anyone done something similar? What's the best way to do it? Thanks.
Can anybody help me to write a procedure to validate a given string like 09461020(Y2K compliant date), I need to check wether this is a valida date or not?? 0946 = should convert to 1946 10 = month 20 is the date.
If it is 20461020.....then year = 2046, month = 10 and day = 20..and it is valid.
procedure should return validate date or not ...return TRUE OR FALSE.
Is there a way in TSQL to validate a string to ensure it has only numbers or letters (no special characters like @,%, etc)?
I want to write a function that validates a number that should only contain letters and numbers. The function should return 1 if valid 0 if not. If it contains anything other than 0-9 or A-Z or a-z then it should return 0.
Any ideas on how to do this in TSQL? I could do this in C# easily with regular expressions, but I don't want to use SQLCLR or any other external resource like that...just straight TSQL.
I'm sorry to repost this, but I didn't get an answer yet for this seemingly simple issue. I need to make sure that an email address has the @ symbol before I insert it from one table to another. Does anyone know the syntax? What I have that isn't working is -
select * from table where email charindex ('@',email) > 0
I'm looking a cripts/code that will validate date in my form when the user key in date. The date has to be in the following format 00/00/0000 (month/ day/ year)
select * from empmaster emp.no fromdate todate ---------------------------------- E3/13/20074/7/2007 E4/13/20076/13/2007
i am going to pass some date for example 5/20/2007.
so i have to compare this 5/20/2007 which lies in between 3/13/20074/7/2007 or 4/13/20076/13/2007.if means i have to print not allowed other wise allowed. and the date should not be less(if 2/10/2007). like thi i have many from date and todate in my table. if i give 7/20/2007 means it should print allowed becos it doesnot falls in between any date o the emp.no=e. this should be depent on the emp.no also.
so please help me to do this.please show me query for this.or spc
Hi guys I am fairly new to t-sql. I am sure there are SPs or scripts that I can use to create a procedure that will do the data validation in the staging table...
Client send us data and often some of the records have bad values... what i have to create is a process that will check for those values and update a flag in the staging table for each column if the data is not valid....
Please help me out if you have something that can be used for this.
I am having trouble with the SSIS wizard results. The connections to source and destination test good, but when I execute a task to copy all tables from a hosted OLEDB to a local SQL native connection, I get this error:
Error 0xc0202049: Data Flow Task: Failure inserting into the read-only column "eventID". (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)
Error 0xc0202045: Data Flow Task: Column metadata validation failed. (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)

Error 0xc0024107: Data Flow Task: There were errors during task validation. (SQL Server Import and Export Wizard)
The actual table that it is trying to write to is empty. What might I need to do, in order to correct the situation?
I have a package that runs fine in BIDS, however fails when run in a job with the following error: "The Validate method must succeed and indicate the result using an "out" parameter".
The task it is failing on is a third party FTP task that uses expressions for the filesource and filedestination and username. I have set delay validation on for this task, yet it still seems that it is trying to validate it.
