Problem With Uncommited Transactions In Log-file
Sep 7, 2005
Hi group
I have an application running on a couple of pc's all connecting to
the same SQL-serve databaser. The other day one of my applications
started a transaction which it never committed (programming error) .
The application continiued running for a couple og hours filling every
insert and update statement to the sql-server log-file, where they
remain rigt now. The applications on all the other machines
deadlocket because they waited for the first application to commit. I
eventually shot down the ms sql service and restarted it. Now all the
transactions which were not commited are not to bee seen in the
database, because they remain in the log file (ldf-file) waiting for
af commit I cannot perform. Are there a way to browse an ms-server
..ldf file to see which uncommitted records are in it
Thanks if anyone can helo
Regards

Hi
Our transaction log has grown to a few gigabytes
I suspect one of our server applications had started a transaction
but never commited it.
I cant shrink it since all this size is being used.
I tried checkpointing it but with no effect
Is there some way to get a list of all active transactions and
their start date?
Thanks.

Hi there,
I have decided to move all my transaction handling from asp.net to stored procedures in a SQL Server 2000 database. I know the database is capable of rolling back the transactions just like myTransaction.Rollback() in asp.net. But what about exceptions? In asp.net, I am used to doing the following:
<code>Try 'execute commands myTransaction.Commit()Catch ex As Exception Response.Write(ex.Message) myTransaction.Rollback()End Try</code>Will the database inform me of any exceptions (and their messages)? Do I need to put anything explicit in my stored procedure other than rollback transaction?
Any help is greatly appreciated

Hi All,
Can anybody suggest me a website where I can find articles on Managing transactions with Sql server. Also a scenario where the transactions take place in a environment involving 2 different databases, Like the bank account and credit card transactions (specifically of 2 way kind)
Thanks

I have a web application with a shopping cart, how do I stop all the shopping cart transaction from going into the db log? Is this possible? These are are only transient data movements, and will never be need to to restore to, and they are cause log bloat. Or is there a better way to stop log bloat?
Thanks

Hi All,
How can we change connection properties in a DTS pkg with connection?
You can loop through the connection count but the connection ID is not static one.So can’t rely on that.
Is there another way of changing connection properties?
Thanks in Advance

Hi all....
I am currently designing a DTS Package to import data that is processed daily into a large database.
I have to design the package such that if any step fails when importing, I roll back the entire transaction.
I have designed the package with this in mind, checked "join transaction if present" and "rollback transaction on failure" in all of the workflows. I have also made all workflows serialized.
However, when I run the package, it fails on one of the data pumps with the error:
Transaction context in use by another session.
Any ideas?
Thank you,
Brian

I am replicating (finally!!) and on my publishers agent history I can see it says xx transactions with xx commands were delivered. (xx being the number)
Where can I look to see what the transactions or commands are?
Is there a place the system stores this information?

Is there a point to wrapping a single UPDATE or INSERT statement in an explicit TRANSACTION:
BEGIN TRANSACTION
INSERT INTO Table (...) VALUES (...)
COMMIT TRANSACTION
I understand ACID and concept of transactions. However, I thought they were only necessary for multi-statement operations. I'm maintaining code that does this and am wondering if this is necessary. Does SQL Server guarantee ACID for single statements? Are single UPDATE/INSERT statements prone to race condition like affects without using explicit transactions?

If you run the Begin Transaction code and then run a create such as an update query and you see that it effects the number of rows that you wanted it to effect is there a way to look at the actual data that changed before you Commit Transaction?
Thanks!

I have a table with around 240 columns and one of the column in the Table is the Inserttime ( DATETIME ) and I using a GETDATE() function in the stored Proc, when we insert data into the table. In the same Milli second 2007-06-27 09:32:58.303 , I have around 7600 records in the database. The Stored Proc is called for each Individual record and we don't bunch the transactions. Is this possible.
I did some bench marking on this server and I can insert only 700 - 800 records approx / sec on this particular table.
Thanks

I have a small database that I have been testing.I get an error about a transaction deadlock.The code is in stored procedures and I added transactions to the sp'sbut the error happened again.I wrapped the whole sp in just one transaction and I don't have anyindex on the tables.When I test just by running a program that sends 3 calls at a time itwill get a deadlocked transaction as I send 6 or 9 at a time.I am not sure how it can have a deadlocked transaction after I usedtransactions(begin and commit) in the sp's.Steve

I am working with transactions and use try catch to capture errors and in the event of an error i have to rollback the transaction. How can i perform this?, most of the errors which i forsee are either insertion of null values into non nullable columns or violation of Primary keys while inserting duplicates.
I started by coding the following way but it does not rollaback apparently the try catch does not work for above kind of errors..Can somebody help..

I've been searching around and haven't found anything that simply states what I want to know.
I want to use a transaction within my CLR Stored Proc, to do so I've got System.Transactions referenced and I can access the current transaction via Transaction.Current.
My questions are
Will there always be a current transaction?
Do I need to create a new transaction if one doesn't already exist?

Hi world:
I have this issue:
I need to push rows from CE to SQL Server 2000 and after delete these rows of CE database only if all rows have been sent to SQL Server 2000.
I think the best is work with transactions. Since I know I can use transactions for this purpose, can anybody give me a link with push transaction examples ?

Hi,
I am using C#.NET 2005, SQL Server 2000.
I have a few questions to ask. Firstly, can anybody help me by telling the difference between the code below and the same code with comments removed:
string localquery = "select bla bla"; SqlDataAdapter _sda; DataTable _dt; SqlCommand _cmd; bool isErrCatched = false; Exception ExcToThrow = new Exception(); using (SqlConnection _cn = NewConnection) // NewConnection returns a static SQLConnection object { _cn.Open(); _cmd = new SqlCommand(localquery, _cn); //SqlTransaction myTrans; //myTrans = _cn.BeginTransaction(); //_cmd.Transaction = myTrans; _dt = new DataTable(); _sda = new SqlDataAdapter(_cmd); try { _sda.Fill(_dt); _sda.Dispose(); //myTrans.Commit(); } catch (Exception exc) { //try { myTrans.Rollback(); } catch {} isErrCatched = true; ExcToThrow = exc; } finally { _cn.Close(); } _cmd.Dispose(); } _cmd = null; if (isErrCatched) throw ExcToThrow; return _dt;
My first question: Can there be a performance loss if I uncomment the lines about transaction usage? I mean, when I do this I start to get more timeouts.
My problem goes on. When I comment those lines and run a stress tool, I am getting "column X does not belong to table Y" errors. If those lines are not commented i am not getting this error, but I get timeout errors frequently. So, my second question: is there something wrong in my query or is there a bad coding practice I am following? Could someone offer a better and more robust sample for this code block?
By the way, connection pooling is on. And these errors are observed under high loads.
Thanks everybody.

I have transaction that will run on an hourly bases. I need to make sure that no one will start this transaction while it is running. I just need to know the system table that has all the transaction names in them and check to see if the transaction is running or not. what i am trying to do is not to have locks....just wanting to make sure that no one would run the same transaction twice. does anyone have any idea on how we can do this?

If you ask a .net developer he would likely say that he uses System.Transactions to manage transactions, a DBA on the other hand places transactions within the T-SQL of stored procedures.
What rules do architects and others, use when determining if the transactions should be placed in:
.net Middle Tier Components using System.Transactions for example.
T-SQL Stored Procedures.
Both .net Middle Tier Components and T-SQL Stored Procedures.
Thanks in advance,

if i have a loop that runs through records in a dataset like thisfor(int i=0;i<ds.Tables[0].Rows.Count;++i) and in this loop i have several sql commands that run as a transaction in a try / catch block like : try{ // do stuff}catch{ trans.RollBack();}how can i keep the loop going even if a transaction failed. So the transaction works for each individual row. if row 100 fails for whatever i would like the loop to continue running, do i just simply remove the "throw" and it will continue looping ? my catch block currently looks like catch(Exception ex){transaction.Rollback();activity.Log("Transaction aborted, rolling back. Error Message: " + ex.Message + " Stack Trace: " + ex.StackTrace.ToString());throw; }thanks,mcm

hi all,
i'm developing a WebApplication with VisualStudio2005 (with C# code).i've defined a DataSet with some TableAdatpter. For each TableAdapter, i've definet some "customized" commands, performing specialized operations over the table on DB. (db is SqlServer2000).For each TableAdapter, i've set as "public" the connection, so that i can use it within my code for beginning a new transaction. Now, how can i set that transaction, to the specialized commands I defined for each TableAdapter?
Thanks all.Andrea.

Hi Guys,
Im having trouble stopping a transaction once the result on one or more of my sql statements rolls back the transaction. Take a look at one my first 'IF' statement (below). If the parameter '@Return' is 'False' i want the transaction rolleback and all sql execution to stop. But my problem is the rest of the sql gets executed and i end up getting rubbish data. Im still new to transactions so i think im doing something really wrong. Please take a look at my sql and help me out in what ever way you think is best. thanks in advance.

I am using SqlServer 2005 Express Edition. I have written a stored procedure that has a transaction to make sure that it rolls back in case of failure. Is there a way to test that the transaction works. I don't now how to cause an error that would cause the transaction to roll back and raise the error with the details of the exception.
Thanks,

I have a form that calls three separate queries to insert its contents in my database. The first query runs once and returns an identity value back to the calling code. Using this ID, it runs a foreach() on the selected items of two listboxes; running multiple inserts for each.
I want to group all of those inserts into a transaction that will rollback if any insert fails. I'm familiar with doing this in a stored procedure, but since this is a case where I can't use a single sproc I'm not sure exactly how.
I've been stumbling through using a SqlTransaction object and handling it from my code, but I can't seem to find much information on doing this. Any examples of a multiple query transaction using the SqlTransaction object would be very helpful.

Lets say I have to insert 60,000 or so records into SQL Server from another data source using the sqlTransaction class.
However if at any point an error should occur I would like to roll back any changes.
Would a transaction be a bad idea when dealing with this many records?
Thanks for any advice.
