For SQL 2005 transactional replication I have 1400 articles (tables, views, functions, sp) that are all replicated.
Will SQL 2005 allow me to drop a table from from the publication and drop it from the publication database that is referenced by exising views or sps that are replicated or does it somehow check that?

I have a strange problem. I have a computed column in a replicated table, the Formula is as follows:
(isnull(hashbytes('SHA2_256',CONVERT([varchar](256),[AccrualReference],(0))),(0))) the column is also Persisted.
This gets around a case sensitivity issue and is used as the Primary Key column, which works well.The problem is that this table is then replicated to another server. On the subscriber the value of this computed field is being returned as 0x00000000 for every row, so this must be the ISNULL function doing its job. But why? The AccrualReference is the true PrimaryKey and is never NULL.
If I remove the computed specification and set the field up as varbinary(64) the value then gets replicated. This then means maintaining a different table schema for in excess of 500 tables.

Hi,
I'm merge replicating a SQL Server 2005 database (publisher) to SQL Compact databases (subscribers) on mobile devices. I understood that I could add a "not null" column to a replicated table on the server as long as I specified a default value, but it seems this is not possible. I ran the following script on the server database:
ALTER TABLE Activity ADD ActivityRequiresProject bit not null default(0)
which executed OK. When I went to synchronize the db on the mobile device I got the following error:
Alter table only allows columns to be added which can contain null values. The column cannot be added to the table because it does not allow null values.
The SQL statement failed to execute. If this occurred while using merge replication, this is an internal error. If this occurred while using RDA, then the SQL statement is invalid either on the PULL statement or on the SubmitSQL statement. [ SQL statement = alter table "Activity" add "ActivityRequiresProject" bit not NULL constraint "DF__Activity__Activi__4A47DDAE" default ( ( 0 ) ) ]
Does anyone know if this is a valid error? Is is possible to add a not null column with default, and if not how do I update the schema on a replicated database?
Regards,
Greg

Can I increase the length of a varchar column of table involved in transactional replication without dropping and recreating publication/subscription?
Any help/short-cuts/undocumented features greatly appreciated.

I'm new to replication and am trying to determine the best approach to add a column (NOT NULL with no DEFAULT) to a replicated table. The only success I have had is if I do the following:
Delete entire Subscription
Delete entire Publication
Add column to table
Create new Publication
Create new Subscription
Run SnapShot
The problem with this approach is that each step affects the entire database and not just the modified table. I think it is inefficient to redo replication for a simple object change. What am I missing? Is there a way to only replicate the changes made to the one table without having to run a SnapShot for the entire publication?
Keep in mind the column must be defined as NOT NULL and cannot have a Default.
Thanks, Dave

On sqlserver 2000 transactional replication:
How would I best go about changing a published table's column from smallint to int? I could not find anything about it in BOL or MS.com. I do not think EM/Replication Properties allows the change. I suspect I have to run "Alter Table/Column" on the Publisher and each Subscriber the old-fashioned way. Is that true?
Thanks!

I have a scenario where I need to add a blank column to a table that is a publisher. This table contains over 100 million records. What is the best way to add the column? In the past where I had to make an update, it breaks replication because the update would take forever as jobs are continuously updating the table so replication can't catch up.
If I alter a table and add a column, would this column automatically get picked up in replication?

Hi All,
Is there a way by which we can modify the width of a column of a table which is being replicated without touching the ongoing transactional replication? This is for MSSQL2000 Transactional Replication.
I know (and successfully tried) that we can add a column to a table and that gets propaged to the replicate database and indeed the added column gets reflected there. How to add a column? sp_repaddcolumn or Right Click on the Publication-Properties and it shows a button to Add a Column.
This is what I have tried for modifying the width of a column of a table participating in Transactional Replication from varchar(10) to varchar(100)
MH (source) -> MH1 (Replicate)
The column €ścol1€? had width of varchar(10) and this was altered to varchar(100).
insert into MH..test_mh values(4,'abcdeabcdefff')
select * from MH1..test_mh
exec sp_dropsubscription @publication = N'MH', @article = N'test_mh', @subscriber = N'UKPBDRMTST2', @destination_db = N'MH1'
go
exec sp_droparticle @publication = N'MH', @article = N'test_mh'
go
alter table test_mh alter column col2 varchar(100) null OR
MH1..sp_help test_mh
exec sp_addarticle @publication = N'MH', @article = N'test_mh', @source_table = N'test_mh'
go
exec sp_addsubscription @publication = N'MH', @article = N'test_mh', @subscriber = N'UKPBDRMTST2' , @destination_db = N'MH1'
go
Needless to say, help would be apreciated -

I am using the compact edition on a desktop using VS2005 as well as SQL Server Management Studio. None of those tools allow me to rename a column or rename a table. Can someone point me a tool the runs on the desktop (as opposed to running on a CE device) that allows me to do the renaming?
Thanks

I want to alter my all tables to change the name of all columns.
Â
I need this because all column names were created with space and I want to remove the space for future work .
For example – In Table Customer there is a column name [Cust_Id ] and I want to change it with [Cust_Id]

Using SQL 2005 SP2. I have a publication that contains indexed views, and some other objects that query the indexed view using WITH (NOEXPAND). Currently replication fails because the CLUSTERED INDEX on the view is NOT replicated. I've experimented with various schema options but nothing changes. The view is replicated but not the clustered index on that view. I've seen some discussion on replicating indexed views to a table, but I would like to replicate indexed view schema fully. (Including the clustered index on that view). Is there a way to make this work?

I'm a novice with replication and am in need of direction on how to restore replicated databases. Server A replicates 5 databases to server B using transactional replication. Server A also contains the distribution database. I'm perfoming PUSH replication.
The development area asked me to restore Server A with a copy of production data located on server C. After I restored the data from C to A, I noticed that server A was no longer published. Is this normal?
I re-published the 5 databases, but noticed that the Log Reader Agent has now been running for 2 hours. I'm trying to give myself a crash course in replication, but am coming up empty regarding (1) the prefered method for restoring replicated databases and (2) determining why the Log Reader Agent is taking so long.
Any suggestions?
Thanks, Dave

I have 1 sql server 2005 database in Server A that is publishing a table to another database in Server B using the transactional method.
It is possible for me to delete all the rows in the database located at the publisher at the same time the subscriber pulls them?
Thanks.

We have a master database (SQL 2014 Std) from which data are imported from XML files (send by en ERP system) using SSIS. Â There is about 12 other servers (SQL 2014 Express) located in remote warehouses. People will uses PocketPC to scan barcode of products in the warehouses and all operations must be forwarded to the master DB to be exported in a XML file for the ERP system.Now, each warehouses are independant. How can I setup the replication so only data belonging to a specific warehouse is replicated to its corresponding DB? I thought about creating views, one for each warehouses, and setup a replication for each warehouse, so there would be 12 merge replications configured. Is it fine?

I have Snapshot set up as a schedule task between server A and server B.
If I make changes to the db schema on server A - the changes are not replicated to server B.
Is this normal?
Do I have to restart the Sanapshot agent each time there is a schema change?
Thanks,

We had an issue recently where a (transactional) replicated table was replicating data as expected.
Then about 30 or so rows in the source table were not in the destination table, but other rows created after those 30 rows were replicated.
We have pretty much confirmed that users did not delete those rows.
Unfortunately we had to resolve the issue quickly and so blew away & recreated the subscription so a lot of evidence is probably gone from the crime scene.
We cant figure out what could cause 30 rows not to be replicated, yet leave replication operational.

Hi,
I have a table used in Merge Replication. If i add a new column in that table it gives me an error for tables in which either this table is a key or this table has key from other tables "Error validating the default for column 'rowguid'." Also for views i'm getting an error
"View 'dbo.vw_TestCaseBasic': indexes and schema binding will be removed."
If i proceed further i get an error and m not able to add the column.
"It is invalid to drop the default constraint on the rowguid column that is used by merge replication.
The schema change failed during execution of an internal replication procedure. For corrective action, see the other error messages that accompany this error message.
The transaction ended in the trigger. The batch has been aborted."
Is there any solution for the same?
Regards,
Ruchir Jain

Cannot save properties for article "xxxxxxxxx"
Aditional Information
An Exception occured while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch.
(Microsoft.SQLServer.Rmo)

Changed Database context to 'xxxxxxxxxx'. (Microsoft SQL server, Error: 341).
Now Im left wondering how to get the replication to work?
