Problem With Creating A Merge Publication

Jan 10, 2006

Help!!! This is really frustrating me down!

I was trying to follow the MS official tutorial "Creating a mobile application with SQL server mobile" could be found in this link

http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms171908.aspx

In the step of creating a merge publication, as I noticed, the snapshot agent is started sucessfully. But very soon later (few seconds), it was shut down with an error message. I checked in the error history, the following message I found:

"... The replication agent encountered a failure. The step failed"

I also went to msdb.dbo.sysjobsteps and found "Detected nonlogged agent shutdown".

Anyone could help?

Problem Creating New Publication For MERGE REPLICATION

Jan 3, 2008

Hi,

I am stuck when trying to create a new publication. I fill all the wizard tabs but when finishing I get that message (6 times, one for every table):




Code Block


SQL Server Management Studio could not create article 'applicationModules'. (New Publication Wizard)

------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

An exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch. (Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo)

------------------------------

This article cannot use the 'subscriber_upload_options' feature because the publication compatibility level is less than 90. Use sp_changemergepublication to set the publication_compatibility_level of publication 'testMR' to '90RTM'.
Changed database context to 'test'.
Publication 'testMR' has the following property: 'compensate_for_errors'. SQL Server subscribers below version '8.00.0858' will ignore this setting. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 21522)

For help, click: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?ProdName=Microsoft+SQL+Server&ProdVer=09.00.1399&EvtSrc=MSSQLServer&EvtID=21522&LinkId=20476



The error seemed pretty clear, so I end up doing:

EXEC sp_changemergepublication
@publication = N'testMR',
@property = N'publication_compatibility_level',
@value = N'90RTM'

and running the wizard again.

But I got the same error.

The link on the message take me nowhere.
and by googling for error 21522 I couldn't find any help at all.

Please, could anyone help?

Cheers

Merge Publication Error

Mar 7, 2001

Hi,
I disabled a merge publication on my server. I then ran sp_removedbreplication to clean the system tables. Thats fine. When I recreate a new publication on my server now, I still get the red x on my publisher node in my replcation monitor from the error I was getting before. Evenm though this publication is error free. Is it saving an srror flag in one of the sytem tabbles

Any ideas on this?
Thanks

Add Article To Merge Repl. Publication

Apr 22, 2004

I am running merge replication (SQL 2000 with SP2) with an anonymous pull subscription. The application vendor has come out with update that requires adding a table to a database. The vendor has created scripts that will add the table, as well as some stored procedures. If I apply the scripts to both servers and add the table as a new article to the publication, am I going to have to apply a snapshot of the entire database (which is very large)?

Your help is greatly appreciated.

Delete A Merge Replication Publication

Mar 15, 2007

I tried to drop a merge replication publication and it is giving me an invalid object name dbo.ms_mergeagents message. I tried to drop using:

I got the last two from Microsoft KB article 324401. The subscription was never created because it gave another error invalid object_name msmerge_subscriptions. I can create new publications but not drop the existing ones.

Merge Replication Failing After Recreating The Publication

Jun 7, 2006

I am having a problem with merge replication after recreating a publication. It is a simple two-way replication between two servers allowing applications to update data at both ends, i.e. 1 publisher, 1 subscriber for all tables except some junk ones. The problem started after I did the following:

1) I dropped and recreated the publication to allow for some changes to the database schema. These caused problems so I dropped the subscription and publication and restored the databases at each end from backups taken before we started.

2) When I created the publication again, it wouldn't let me use the same name as it thought the publication already existed. It let me use a different name instead.

3) Most things work OK but one of the tables is not replicating inserts from the subscriber to the publisher. There are no errors and no conflicts, other similar tables replicate OK. Inserts go across the other way OK.

4) I am getting replication conflicts on another table that says 'Unable to synchronize the row because the row was updated by a different process outside of replication'

I believe the problem is to do with the original publication details still being in the restored databases, so am looking to drop the publication & subscription, remove the remnants of the old publication, fix the data and recreate pub & sub. What do I need to do to get rid of the old replication data in the database?

Any help much appreciated.

Schema Changes On Merge Publication On SQL2000 And SQL2005

Apr 17, 2007

Hello



I've got the following problem: Our product is delivered with SQL2000 and SQL2005.

Now, there are some schema changes, which I'd like to deploy with T-SQL on the publishers. With SQL2000 I do it with the sp_addmergecolumn etc and on SQL 2005 (if replication compatibility level is 90) with replication of DDL. So far so good.

But how can my T-SQL Script determine, wether the replication of DDL is on? I know there exists sp_helpmergepublication, but how do I get the column replicate_ddl of the result-set?



thanks for your advices.

Creating A Publication

May 22, 2006

hi
I was following the walkthrough "Creating a Mobile Application with SQL Server Mobile" and when I got to the point where you create a "local publication" I couldn't find the link "Local Publication" in my Object Explorer.

I read all the help in books online however id did not tell me how to bring that link there.

I did install the replication component using the CD installation. I have SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition and Visual Studio 2005


I also found the help "Using the Publication Wizard to Create a Publication" but did not know where to locate or start the wizard.

any help will be appreciated.

Setting Up Publication For Merge Replication Using Stored Procedures

Aug 2, 2006

Hello.I am trying to use Transact SQL to prepare publication for replication (SQL Server 2000 SP4 and SQL Mobile). I can easily create publication, add filters etc. but there is one thing which I can't find : parameter which tells me subscriber type and allow me to change subscriber type for publication. I don't know where I can change (or even if I can change) this property.
If someone made publication for mobile devices and replication with filters,resolvers etc. will it be a problem to share experiences here? Maybe some sample code with script or something what will guide me. Thanks in advance. Maciej Wysocki

The Maximum Number Of Articles Allowed In A Merge Publication Is 246.

Jun 4, 2007

Has anyone had problems with this limitation before or could explain to me what the purpose of this limit is for? It obviously does allow you to publish more than 246 (we have been publishing more than 700 for years). Is this new with SQL 2005? Is my publication going to stop one day and tell me there are too many articles?



Thanks in advance.

Allowing Transformations When Creating Publication For Replication

Dec 2, 2003

I am at my wits end here. For Replication the Books Online clearly state:

"The option to allow transformations is set at the time you create a publication"

However, I cannot find any options that allow me to do this in the Create Publication Wizard.

Once the Publication has been created I see in the Properties in the Subscription Options tab that "Use DTS to transform data before distributing it to a Subscriber" is set to No and there is no way to change it.

Where am I going wrong?

Bug In MS Management Studio For SQL-Server 2005 While Creating A Publication!

Dec 21, 2006

Hello,

I found a bug in Management Studio, which can be reproduced with following steps:

1. Create a new publication with the 'New Publication Wizard'
2. Select a database which contains at least 2 tables.
3. Select 'transactional publicatioon'
4. Select at least 2 tables as articles
5. Set article properties for all table articles
6. Change 'Statement Delivery' to 'Insert statement', 'Update statement' and 'Delete statement' and save the article properties.
7. If you now check the properties for a single article you find that the 'Statement Delivery' is set to 'Do not replicate...'. If you generate this publication and create a subscritpion you will see, that actual no replication take place.

It took me a while to find out why my replication doesn't work! :-((

Creating Full-text Indexes On A Table In A Publication

Sep 13, 2006

I have a table that is in a one way transactional publication. I need to create a full-text catalog on this table and have that catalog exist on the subscriber as well. I understand simply creating a FTC for an object in a publication will not cause that FTC to be replicated to the subscribers. I have scripted out the command and tried to use sp_addscriptexec to push it to the subscriber. When I do this, I get the following error:

Last 183 characters in 'sqlcmd' output buffer: Changed database context to 'database'.
Msg 574, Level 16, State 1, Server SQLSERVER, Line 2
CREATE FULLTEXT CATALOG statement cannot be used inside a user transaction.

Also, when this script is run directly from the subscriber, it works fine (but since the subscriber is our production machine, I'd prefer to not have to do it that way). I believe I can reinitialize the publication and have the FTC pushed to the subscriber, but this is not ideal either, since some of our databases can be very large and take a long time to initialize.

Is there a better way to accomplishing this other then connecting directly to the subscriber and running the script or by reinitializing the publication? Thanks for your help!

Creating A Snapshot For Merge Replication

Feb 14, 2006

I'm trying to test merge replication, but am unable to create the publication, the snapshot agent keeps failing. The error I get from replication monitor is "Script failed for Table <tablename>"

Our database has quite a few XML datatype columns, when I take out the xml columns the snapshot succeeds OK, but fails with the xml column.

I created a simple table containing a varchar column and xml column. I created this table in our database, and in Adventure Works. Was able to create a publication with this test table in the adventureworks database, but was unable to create publication with this table in our database. The snapshot failed with error "Script failed for table testtable". I removed the xml column on the test table in our database and was able to create the publication successfully. Creating a publication in the adventureworks database with an xml column has no problems, but does in our database.

Anyone have any ideas?

Creating Peer-to-Peer Merge Replication

Apr 6, 2006

We have a situation exactly like that shown in the documentation for creating a peer-to-peer merge replication. That is, we have three servers, one each in Chicago, New York, and Bermuda. Users in each office will read and write to their respective servers and the servers will then replicate with one another. The documentation, however, only shows how to set up peer-to-peer for a transactional replication. The problem is that the various Manger Studio options and the database stored procedures are NOT the same between transactional and merge replication and on the face of it, merged replication does not support a peer-to-peer topology. Can somebody walk me through the process of creating a peer-to-peer merge replication, or else convince me that I should go with transaction with updating subscriptions -- in contravention of what the documentation seems to reccommend? I'd really appreciate it!
Thanks.

Merge Repliction - Run Stored Procedure When Merge Agent Starts

Jul 23, 2005

I have database on SQL Server 2000 set up with a merge publication.This publication is configured with a number of dynamic filters toreduce the amount of data sent to each client. Each client has ananonymous pull subscription. The merge process can be triggered by thewindows sync manager and my application.To improve performance I have created some helper tables to hold themapping between user login and primary keys of selected entities.For the replicated data to be correct the contents of the helper tablesneeds to be up to date.I need to fire off a stored procedure on the publisher beforereplication starts to verify that this data is up to date. I can notsee any documented way of doing this however I have been experimentingwith some unorthodox systems.Firstly has anyone any ideas?I have been considering adding a trigger to some of the tables used bythe Microsoft replication code - yes I know this is very nasty.My problems arise because executing this stored procedure will causesome data to be updated. In updating data we could create a newgeneration in the database. I must therefore run my stored procedurebefore any the Microsoft code makes any generation checks / updates.Anyone done anything similar, Anyone have any better ideas?Any comments would be gratefully received.

Change A Merge Subscriber To Become A Merge Publisher

Aug 16, 2004

Hi,

I'm using merge replication to maintain a backup copy of my main (publisher)MSDE database. A push subscription periodically (1 per minute) updates the backup DB.
It's intended that if the main db goes down then the backup (subscription) db can be configured as a publisher. This must all be performed via scripting.
The initial configuration of the main publisher and subscription is controlled via scripting, which works fine.
The problems occur when I try to configure the subsciber to become a publisher. A script is executed on the subscriber but fails at the point when it's configuring the publisher detail. The error is something like "unable to configure a publication for a database setup as an anonymous subscription".
I'm guessing that there are subscritpion artifacts added to the database which need to be removed before it can be configured as a new publisher.

Please help,
Jez W
