Sorry for the previous mail.. Didnt mean to send it like that..
I have a question about replication. I have created the destination machine as the subscriber, where I created a pull subscribtion and tried to replicate I got this error.
"Subscriber must be running in perseat license moe to use this."
The cd I used to install MSSQL 7.0 is the msdn back office test platform. Where am I going wrong??/ because I never got to specify the per seat license anywhere..
The documentation says that If I can have it installed on a 95/98 box then it means I have a perseat licesne, which I was able to do..
Hi all, What I'm trying to do and having a lot of trouble with is pulling how one user is related to another user from my database. I'll explain...
I set up a table called relationships that looks like this:
ID type: int
RELID1 type: int, is the user id that initiated the relationship request.
RELID2 type: int, is the user id of the second person in the relationship.
Story type: varchar(255), quick blerb on how they are related.
Type type: int, a number 1-20 based on the relationship they have
Status type: int, 1 = confirmed by second person, 0 = not confirmed
What i'd like to have pulled is a list of the people that person (for example: 70) is related to. I am having the two following problems: 1. unqid of "70" could be in RELID1 or RELID2 as they could have initiated the request or been the second person. 2. I don't want to display them selves in their own relationship listing
Example Data: ID 1 2 3 4
RELID1 25 15 70 12
RELID2 54 70 13 8
Story Met on the east coast Met at walmart Met walking Met outside
Type 14 11 3 8
Status 1 1 1 1
Example Output: Again assuming the current user is "70", the sql should pull: 15, 13.. but i'd like to pull their names from another table called "Users" where "15" and "13" are the UnqID's in a column called "ID". So: 15 = Bob Smith 13 = Jane Doe
The following code works great that I got with the help on another form:
SELECT Relationship.RELID1 , Relationship.RELID2 , ReMembers.FirstName , ReMembers.LastName FROM Relationship INNER JOIN ReMembers ON ReMembers.AccountID = Relationship.RELID1 WHERE Relationship.RELID2 = 70 UNION ALL SELECT Relationship.RELID1 , Relationship.RELID2 , ReMembers.FirstName , ReMembers.LastName FROM Relationship INNER JOIN ReMembers ON ReMembers.AccountID = Relationship.RELID2 WHERE Relationship.RELID2 = 70
My question is: What is the best way to set this table up? I'm not committed to any any design as of right now, but want to be sure I set it up in the most efficient manner.
I have a windows application that connects to a SQLExpress database hosted on a shared server. The client machines will run an interface software and interact with the info within SQL The SQL database isn't huge (50 megs) and all of the info is text. The interface application isn't too complex either, it was designed using VB.net05. I have a few setup questions:
1 - Is it best to use Windows or SQL authentiaction? Currently I am using Windows authentication and I have a user group setup on the DNS that is setup as a user for the SQL database. That has worked so far, but I've only had a few users logged in at one time so far. My plan was to add all DNS accounts that will use the software to the DNS user group, thus giving them access to the SQL database.
2 - I know this gets asked a TON, but I am interested in knowing how many users I should be able to support using the current setup. I have the one user acount setup for the DNS user group. The SQL table is not huge and it is all reading and writing text. The server is running Windows Server 03 and is a couple years old (not sure of exact specs).
Thanks for any help, I am still learning my way around SQL and it's great to have such a vast amount of support for the product.
Over the past few days, we've been experiencing some very disturbing issues that may be directly related to our prod database (publisher) replicating to the reports database (subscriber). Both machines run SQL Server 2005 unpatched (I know, I know).
When I run replication monitor, everything seems fine until I go to the Undistributed Commands page and I see a HUGE number there, currently 2 million and growing. I check the net for solutions and I find reference to setting SubscriptionStreams to a number other than default (4 cpus on each machine).
Problem one is that there is no way I can add this (that I could find anyway) to the Distribution agent through its properties.
Problem two is when I try running Activity Monitor on the subscription DB or exec sp_lock, both seem to time out or hang. This leads me to believe something is blocked in the distributor or the report db?
I need to replicate a database which will be updated both sides.Table doesn't have the primary key,and already has data.Please advice which replication will suit and what are the limitations.URGENT!! Thanks!
I did setup to have a Desktop SQL Server running on Windows NT workstation in a different domain across the internet create a pull subscription to a transaction publication that is immediate updating that I have published on my NT SERVER in my domain. It never got any further than creating the subscription -- I got the following error on the pull:shared agent job history:
The job failed unable to determine if the owner (domainusername) of job SQLServername-databasename-pubname-SQLServername2-databasename2 - 0 has server access (reason: Could not obtain information about Windows NT group/user 'othernameIdon'tunderstand'(SQLState 4200000) (Error 8198)
I want to be able to do bi-directional transaction based replication between a 7.0 SQL server running on Windows NT 4.0 server SP5 and an NT Workstation 4.0 SP5. Can this be done or would it require that both machines to be NT Server based? The reason I asked is because previously under 6.5 I was able to install the SQL operating system on Windows NT Workstation and now it looks like I can only install the Desktop version under 7.0. Will this give me the type of replication I am looking for?
Hello, I'm newbie in replication field. At the moment, I am able to setup replication on LAN (1 distributor to few subcribers). However, I found some difficulties on setting-up the replication on WAN. Is there any guidelines, setup documents or examples (like print screen) for me to refer to ? Hope able to get any assistance at here.
I am setting up 2005 Transacational Replication on a database that was created on SQL 2000. There are 1400 articles (tables, views, sp and functions). It takes 2.5 hours to create the snapshot. Then, once the distribution errors gets its first error, it keeps retrying and getting the same error. Q1: Can I tell it to record the error but keep going? Q2: How do I stop the distribution agent once it gets in the this state? I have been deleting the publication but that seems like overkill.
I am trying to figure out a more efficient way to identify all the articles that are going to get errors. Is there any way to test the articles to see which ones will get an error? My current process takes a long time just to identify one error (since I have to create the snapshot each time).
I am trying to create a new transactional publication between two Sql 2005 servers. This is my first attempt with replication in 2005, so i have obviously missed something in the setup. Each time i try to create the new puplication i receive the following error.
Any help is greatly appreciated
TITLE: New Publication Wizard ------------------------------
SQL Server could not configure 'DTS-70P40LT2Y0A' as a Distributor.
We are working on mssql 6.5, sp 4 and are beginning to test replication between two servers containing the same databases.
In EM, we added a distribution database on the publisher machine and through EM added each server as a local on each separate server and installed mssql 65 and sp4 on each machine and created the same database on each repsective machine.
In EM , through replication configuration, we added a subscriber database on one machine. On the publisher machine ,in EM through replication configuration, we went to add a publisher and when we clicked on the subscriber and then clicked on the publisher database and then clicked 'O.K.", we got the following message:
'Error 21271 : the name 'xyz-01' is not a vlaid object identifier, oe is not a valid format for this proprty or method'
This error message is not in BOL.
Has any one received this message in this situation?
What do we do to resolve it?
Any assistance that can be provided will be greatly appreciated. THanks.
Steps I made: 1) Created Publications by script - using Manual Sync. (Transacat Repl) 2) Created Subscriptions by script 3) Started Distribution Agent THEN THIS ERROR MSG:
I have a Windows Mobile aplication that uses merge replication to synchronize between sql compact and full sql Enterprise edition and It works great. Instantiating the SqlCeReplication object setting it's properties and calling Synchronize on it is pretty simple assuming everything is setup properly at the publisher.
For the life of me I can't figure out how to do this on the desktop (Programatically setup a subscription and create a database using objects in the System.Replication Namespace and hopefully call Synchronize on it).
We have a setup with one Publisher Server and 15 Subscribers with merge replication configured for all subscribers. The current Database size is approximately 3 GB expected to grow to 10 GB in next 1 year. We wanted to know what benefits would we incur if we add an additional seperate distributor server (hardware box). Also, what is the approx. size of a database where a seperate distributor server (hardware box) is recommended.
When trying to create a publication or subsubscription running under a Windows Domain account the following error message appears:
Replication-Replication Distribution Subsystem: agent ECHOECHO-InsDB-INS_CMS_PUB-HARPO-58 failed. Unable to start execution of step 2 (reason: Error authenticating proxy DETINIsrvRep_user, system error: Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password.). The step failed.
Further in the SQL logs we find that the above message is due to:
[298] SQLServer Error: 22046, Encryption error using CryptProtectData. [SQLSTATE 42000]
It appears that when Credentials for the agent proxy are being created that this message occurs. So when the SP that tries to run the agent (snapshot or distrobution) is called it always returns incorrect password details.
The Credentials do appear to be created, they are visible via SQL Studio, but you can't see the password. Changing the password via SQL Studio does not work as the Credentials are recreated every time.
I have checked the following:
MSDTC is running correctly The Domain Account has the correct privileges to run these services Regenerated the Service Master Key Created Master Keys in each database effected by replication Ensure SQL Service accounts have access to decrypt the Service Master Key I can create a Publication and Subscription using the local system account on the cluster
I am using two windows 2000(SP4) server box for Sql server 2000(SP3a) replication wit following methods-
1.ISDN Dialup line with NT1 terminator at both end. 2.Create Dialup from one computer. 3.Create RAS with static IP Address at second computer (Dial in) for acceptance of dialing. 4.Dialing from one place to another computer and get connection by dialup. 5.I can ping only Remote IP (RAS STATIC) Address at both end.
Try to registered SQL Server 2000 from dial place or dial in place got following errors- Specify Sql server not found, Connection Open Connected()
What I am missing in setup of windows or Sql server 2000 or any hard component, let me help. Is the any need of physical router.

Dear Pat Phelan Sir Resident Curmudgeon
Lot of thanks to you for your valuable suggesion, I did do whatever you suggested prior to his emal but not yet got solution
I am using port 1430 for a server and 1440 for b server.
How I can open my case with MS-PSS (Microsoft Professional Support Services), I didn't find any rool for unregistered users.
Not sure if this is the right place, but ill give it a try.. Everytime i try to make a websync for my replications i get this error and then it rolls back everything:
===================================
The operation completed successfully. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070000) (mscorlib)
I am new to Sql server and had just finished the MErge Replication setup on one of the PRoduction server. Today I got the request to change one of the Datatype of one the Published Article. Please help as what are the correct step to make it happen. Is there any production downtime required and if yes , then how much.
We have a vendor that is exposing our database via a High Availability replica. They are geographically far away from us though so we would like to extract portions of the database over to our side for our reporting /warehousing purposes. I was curious if it is possible to setup snapshot replication on a high availability group?
I have a setup of transaction replication between one publisher and subscriber in the Same server.Now, I need to add a new subscriber to the existing publisher. So publisher database name is DB_A and Subscriber 1 name is DB_B. So the new subscriber will be DB_C. Is this kind of setup possible on one server?
If yes then at the time of reinitialization is it going to apply the snapshot on DB_B as well as DB_C?Also let say if due to disk error DB_B gets corrupted then will data be still replicated between DB_A and DB_C? (Assuming publisher, subscriber 1 and 2 are sitting on individual disks).
I am setting up the replication with the scripts which used to setup in MSSQL2005 (non-cluster server). After I run the script and start the snapshot agent, log agent or distributed agent, it prompts,
Unable to start execution of step 2 (reason: Error authenticating proxy abc.comadmin9, system error: Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password.). The step failed.
abc.comadmin9 is the administrator for all cluster, mssql service and I am sure that the username and password is correct.
I have reviewed the BOL documentation on how to configure Peer-to-Peer replication via T-SQL and how to use the Replication Wizard to implement replication.
What I would like to find out is how do I configure the peer-to-peer replication process to use an existing column on a table that contains a GUID instead of creating an extra column with a uniqueidentifier GUID value. When you use the Wizard each table article has this extra column added to it.
I don't seem to be able to find it in the books-on-line. Can some one point me to the correct article or BOL page.
I have XP Pro SP2 with MDAC 2.8.1022. It had a problem so I tried to reinstall MDAC and got a Fatal Setup Error. This setup does not support installing on this operating system. I downloaded MDAC 2.8 1177 and get the same error.
I thought of uninstalling/reinstalling SP2, but this is a 2 month old Dell Latitude 610 with factory installed XP. There is no Windows Service Pack 2 option listed in the Control Panel > Add/Remove Programs.
There's some other strange things, so I wonder if they are related.
1) I have Paul set up as an administrator account. Some folders like MSSQL show that account with no permissions. I grant all the permissions to Paul for that folder. I come back later and the permissions are gone.
2) I deleted 20 files in Explorer, but 7 of them did not go away. I deleted those 7 again and they instatnly reappeared. I deleted those 7 again and then they finally went away.
3) I get a slow reaction time for things like Windows Explorer and opening and closing programs. This is suprising since it has 2 gig of RAM and 2.3 Gig processor. Could it be a memory handling problem that's causing OS problems. Probably, the memory didn't handle the OS installation well and the whole system is compromised now.
We're doing upgrades from SQL 2008 R2 to SQL 2014. This is blocked due to RS is installed but not configured. Our desired action is to uninstall RS and proceed with the upgrade. But when setuparp.exe is raised, it does not list all the features on the 'Select Features' page. In fact, it only lists the last 2 shared features (SQ Client Connectivity SDK and Microsoft Sync Framework). However, all items appear to be listed on the 'Select Instance' page including RS. I've seen this issue on 2 of our SQL 2008 R2 Servers already.
I'm trying to install SQL Server Management studio 2012 on my Windows 7 (x64) standalone laptop. When I click "New SQL stand-alone installation..." it runs a Setup Support Rules check and always fails "Setup Account Privileges". I've looked into the error and I keep getting that I need to change security rules but I don't have that option in window 7. How do I get around this without having to resort to a computer running Windows Server?
I have Visual Studio 2013 premium installed along with Localdb v11. I just want to connect and manage my database engine through SSMS when developing any application.
