Replication: Remove Merge Subscription Without Existing Publisher?

Feb 26, 2004

Hi all,
I'm a rather newbie, not only to this forum but also to sql server having a question to the following issue:
Is it possible to drop/remove/delete the "orphan" of a merge subscription on one instance of sql server without having the (former) distributor/publisher (on other instance) available?
The background is: I had a small replication infrastructure with two instances (on two machines), one the publisher and distributor, the other the subscriber. Now it happened that the publisher/distributor machine was completely set up new without having the replication dropped in advance, what remained on the subscriber is now a database with all the merge/replication tables and the guid columns in the user tables.
Moreover this, an entry remained in the subscription saying that a subscription with the former publisher exists...

Can I remove these "orphans" without having to setup the instance again?

Thank you,
Andy

Programmatically Reinitializing Merge Subscription From Publisher - SQL 2005

Sep 4, 2007

From the SSMS GUI it is possible to re-initialize one or all subscriptions to a merge publication. This is done at the publisher.

How can I achieve these operations programmatically?

In particular, how do I initialize a single merge subscription from the publisher?


I have looked at the documentation for sp_reinitmergepullsubscription but it says that this proc must be run at the subscriber - which isn't much use when subscribers are disconnected for the majority of the time

I have a large number of merge subscribers and want to reinitialize all except one

URGENT Merge Replication: Missing Rows At Publisher And Subscriber: No Conflicts

Jun 9, 2006

We have SQL Server 2000 with merge replication at a Publisher and subscriber.

We have some records getting deleted at Publisher and Subscriber and no conflicts are logged.

We have tried the compensate_for_errors setting and this has had no effect.

This is causing serious data corruption and has now become an URGENT issue. Out tech team are almost out of ideas.

Has anyone experienced this or have any ideas as to what to check next?

Merge Replication - Uninitialized Subscription

May 7, 2007

I have created a Merge Subscription between two databases. I have set the security setting in the UNC folder of the publisher to allow 'Full Control' for 'Everyone'.

I have done various searches, google, here, etc. But cant seem to find much information to help me out.

When I create the subscription it says it was a success, but when I launch the replication monitor and click the publication it says its subscribers are uninitialized.

Can anyone help?

Merge Replication Subscription Doubles In Size

Jan 29, 2008

I made a DDL change to a published table. To do this, I had to remove the table from the article, modify two field sizes, save the table, and then add the table back to the publication. I did have to rerun the snapshot agent after this even though the new article is exactly the same (yes, I understand all rowguids are dropped and recreated).


So, at the subscription, I begin synchronization and it replicates every article, thus doubling the size of the subscription .sdf file. yes, it can be compacted and it cuts it back in half.

Question is how to prevent this behavior? Is it possible to create the rowguid before publishing the table/article and that way even if you go back and make a schema change that requires republishing you can avoid the nasty behavior of producing a new snapshot and and a doubling of subscription database size?

This particular merge publication is read-only. Every article is marked as 'download only.'

Ideally if schema change is needed to one table, I only want that table/article to require reinitialization.
Actually, if its a simple change like expanding a varchar by some chars I'd like to not have to republish the article at all.
keep dreaming?

Merge Replication Between Two Existing Databases?

Apr 18, 2006

Hi gang,

We have a couple of databases on separate servers that have exactly the same schema, and we would like to set up merge replication between them.

Is that possible? The few times we've experimented on test databases, the subscriber database has been trashed and rebuilt using data from the publisher, rather than preserving data from both databases.

I'm really new to replication in general, so any kind of advice would be helpful.

Cheers,
Matt

SQL 2012 :: Initializing Subscription With Web Synchronization (merge Replication)

May 9, 2015

I'm trying out a set up as following:

SQL Server 2008 standard as the publisher
SQL Server 2012 express as the subscriber

and I tend to use web synchronization; there is no domain trust.

After following the instructions at MSDN for configuring web synchronization, I have an error that I can't get past - after creating the initial snapshot on the publisher, I try to run replmerg.exe at the subscriber and I always get this error:

"The subscription to publication 'TestReplication' has expired or does not exist."

If I refresh the publisher's "Local Publications" and look within the "TestReplication", it does show that the subscriber is a known subscriber. Likewise, if I refresh subscriber's "Local Subscription", it has an entry for TestReplication publication.

I already verified that the user used by Replisapi.dll has the read permission to the snapshot folder, is a member of PAL, is db_owner of the publishing database and distribution database. I am using self-signed certificate for this test and I have already installed the certificate at the subscriber machine so that HTTPS is trusted. I can run diagnosis from subscriber so I know subscriber can reach and logs are being left at the publisher's IIS.

Jul 28, 2001

Hi all,

After I setup the merge replication in SQL SERVER 7.0, there is a rowguid column (datatype uniqueidentifier) inserted into each table in the both the source and destination database.

I need to get rid of the rowguid column in all tables. I deleted the replication, but the column still existed.

Is there an easy way to get rid of all the rowguid column in the database? Thanks for your reponse in advanced.

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

Existing Subscription Already Contains Table Included In The New Subscription

Sep 26, 2007







28638


SSCE_M_DUPLICATETABLE


Existing subscription already contains table included in the new subscription.


What are the possible causes of this merge replication error?
Could it be caused by a SQL Server Compact Edition User trying to sync their .sdf file after their subscription has already expired on the SQL Server?

Would you expect to see a different message if a SQL Server Compact Edition user tried to sync a subscriber database (.sdf file) with merge replication if it's been longer than the subscription retention period since their last sync?

Drop Push Subscription Without Publisher

Apr 11, 2002

There is a push subscription to an immediate-updating transactional publication with a queued failover. The publisher was also the distributor.

The publisher melted down and has been removed from service. The subscriber continues to queue up transactions for the now nonexistent publisher.

How do you remove the push subscription directly from the subscribing machine?

Thanks for your help,

Can't Drop SQL Mobile Subscription At Publisher

Oct 3, 2006

I have a program running on Pocket PCs that synchronizes with a desktop SQL database using SQL Mobile. My problem is that I can't delete old subscriptions from the publication; now the publication has 25 subscriptions and won't accept any more (limit of SQL Workgroup edition). I can delete non-SQL Mobile subcriptions just fine.

Running sp_replmonitorhelpsubscription provides this information:

subscriber: LVCONTACTSMERGE - 5FA305234F0C
subscriber_db: Program FilesPocketLVContactsLVContacts.sdf
publisher_db: LVContacts
publication: LVContactsMerge

So I set up this bit of code:

USE LVContacts
EXEC sp_dropmergesubscription
@publication = 'LVContactsMerge',
@subscriber = 'LVCONTACTSMERGE - 5FA305234F0C',
@subscriber_db = 'Program FilesPocketLVContactsLVContacts.sdf',
@subscription_type='all';
GO

No errors are reported, but the subscription doesn't get deleted.

I've tried shutting down SQL Server Agent (mentioned in another thread); makes no difference.

Any ideas?

Push And Pull Subscription From Publisher/Distributor?

May 30, 2001

Hi All,

Can push and pull subscriptions be configured on the publisher/distributer server?

We have server A running SQL Server 2000 configured as Publisher/Distributor and also a Push subscription (transactional replication) to Server B configured as Subscriber.

The idea was to have Server B as backup server if Server A goes down. Users will continue to update data in server B till server A is up.

Once server A is up, I want to synchronise the up-to-minuit date from Server B to Server A in the form of Transactional replication configured as "Pull Subscription" from Server A.

Is that possible?

Thanks

The Publisher Failed To Allocate A New Set Of Identity Ranges For The Subscription

Initially i thought it might be that some of the articles had primary keys that were of type nvarchar rather then Int thus resulting in no identity range being able to be assigned to those articles. 

Test 1: I tried removing all articles that had nvarchar primary keys and left only one table that had an identity Int primary key colum.  I then ran the snapshot agent.  I then run through the Subscription Wizzard again and the error was the same.

Test 2: Then reading the error message again i tried those tables that didnt use  identity columns and the wizzard completed successfully.  Any idea what would be wrong with my articles that have identity columns.  The article properties for the identity columns use the Identity Range Management defaults.

Any help would be appreciated.

SQL 2012 :: Updatable Subscription - View Pending Log From Subscriber To Publisher

I have setup Transnational replication with updatable subscription.

There were around 7000 rows update at subscriber from one query which was executed at subscriber side.

But this update has not taken place at publisher yet and so to other subscribers.

Is there any way i can monitor pending log or where is the issue?

I find so many ways to see pending logs or statistics for - "Publisher to Subscriber" but not for "subscriber to publisher"

What is the way to see subscriber to publisher pending and issues?

The Publisher Failed To Allocate A New Set Of Identity Ranges For The Subscription After Another Publication Deletion

Jan 17, 2007

Hi.

First of all, I apologize for my english

I have two publications. Some of the data are the same on the two publications. Both are configured as follow : The identity range management is set to "automatic" and the tracking-level is set to "Column-level tracking". Until there, every things works fine.

But, if i'm deleting one of the publication and if i'm deleting one of the rows that were replicated on the two publications i'm getting the following SQL Exception : "Invalid object name 'dbo.MSmerge_repl_view_1CAD32C4FF904A3CA27518B0C4BFF716_70308DE2261C4EC784C56131902E7D1C'"


If i'm watching the status of the leftover replication through the replication monitor, i get this error message :

"Error messages:

I checked the given links but they're useless.


So I tried to reinitialize the subscription with the "use a new snapshot" option enabled without any success either. I did only obtain a new error message :

I didnt have any idea to correct this issue, so I would appreciate any help.

Unable To Re-create Snapshot Of Existing Publication Due To Missing Publisher's Identity Range Allocation Entry

Jul 21, 2006

I re-created a publication that was having problems and it gives this error when I start the snapshot agent from SQL Server Management Studio:  I am stuck on how to resolve - any ideas?

"The publisher's identity range allocation entry could not be found in MSmerge_identity_range table.  Transaction count after EXECUTE indicates that a commit or ROLLBACK TRANSACTION statement is missing.  Previous Count = 1, current count = 2."

select * from MSmerge_identity_range returns 19 entries but I don't know how to fix. 

I have tried deleting and re-creating but always get this error.

My other publications and subscriptions are working fine and I was able to create a new test publication that worked but can not get this one to work that worked fine up until today. 

 Any ideas?

Can't Remove Subscription Info

Mar 21, 2004

Dear All,

I deleted a replication in the PROD server. However, the subscription info still exists in the subscription folder in the DR server.

Can anyone tells me how to remove the subscription info? (When I delete the publication, there's a message saying we need to manually delete the subscription info in the subscriber)

I'd tried restart the SQLAgent service, Disabling Publishing in PROD server but it's useless.

thanks first.

Cannot Remove Push Subscription On SQL Server 2000

Nov 29, 2006

Hi,

We have created replication from one production server to another backup server by using SQL scripts. These scripts have been generated by SQL Server after manual initial setup. When I ran these scripts they did not add the subscription for the backup server because a stored procedure were missing named something like sp_addsubscription. Therefore I ran the script on the production server and created the subscription manually on the backup server. But I made an error, I created a push subscription first but I should have created a pull subscription. Now I can't delete the push subscription. I don't even get a error message. I can't press delete and when right clicking on it I can only choose Help. The subscription has the following properties:

Type: push
Status: retrying
Last action: The process could not connect to distributor 'PSERV'
Replication type: Snapshot

Anyone know how I can delete this push subscription on my backup server?

Best,
/M

Is it possible to replicate data from one publishers to a multiple subscribers in transaction replication? In other words I have Server A, Server B, Server C with databases A,B,C respectively. I need to replicate 10 articles from A to B but only 1 from A to C. In other words I want to use the same publisher but select one article from that publisher instead of all 10 to Server C/database C.

If it is possible what will be the drawbacks of such implementation? Will performance be a hit?
