Replication Stops After Server Reboot????
May 2, 2004
Hi,
I have transactional replication set up between two dedicated servers. Server A is the PDC and Server B is a BDC (they are both Win2000 boxes). Both the servers are brand new, and replaced the two that were running like clock work (replication wise) for the last 12 months. I never had this problem with the old servers....
When the servers are shut down (as the case was a couple of weeks back with a power failure) or just recently when they were move to another room. Both servers boot up at the same time. Server B (which is the server holding the db being replicated) boots quicker and as a result replication fails and is then 'sucessfully stopped'. Unless I am aware of the server being rebooted and can monitor this potential problem, within 2 days the logfile grows to large and everything comes to a crashing halt.
I just remove replication, truncate and shrink the log, reset replication and we're away.... BUT I really need to know why it is happening in the first place. I figure there must be a setting that I have forgotten about or something.
Both servers are Win2000 (SP4) and SQL2000(SP3a).
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
Casper

I seem to recall somewhere that a Microsoft Windows Server (2000 for example) should be rebooted once a week.
Is this an urban myth? If so....I can't seem to find a doc on it.
googled:
microsoft server maintenance reboot schedule recommendation
thoughts?

We have to add some hardware and I was wondering if someone could provide a stepwise tip to do it .
It is a 3 Server Environment Pub/Dist/Sub
All three running under SQL2K
Here is what I am planning.
a. Uncheck the Enable in Distributed Agent for each replication
b. Wait for all replications to complete
c. Shut down Publisher ? Or do I have to do something else before that.
Please explain a little .
Thanks

An IT dept. I have been consulting with has started to reboot SQL server every night. They are saying that this is the best practices. I would like to know if anyone has any other ideas on this subject. What is the best practices for how often a SQL server should be rebooted, daily, weekly, monthly ... ?
Thanks

I have had my site running for several months now. My pages retrieve data from the SQL Server on the same machine. Today my users are are getting the message "SQL Server does not exist or access denied"
I have made sure that the credentials are correct. I can use those credentials to create a DSN on the server. So I don't know where to look for the problem. Help please!

To All,I have a SQL2KSP3a database(<1GB) running on a 4x3GB physical CPU with4GB of ram. It is Windows Server 2003 with hyper-threading turn on.There are ~420 .Net users/cxns (fat client, no web/app servers) withconnection pooling and ~1 trx/sec. The database growth is neglegeableand actually is not even relevent which I will explain in a minute.99% of the trxs are from one SP that does a select. The resultsets arerelatively small as well 1~100 rows. Yes I have tuned it with indextuning wizard as well, changed the SQL memory configurations, etc....My problem is this...The first day after a reboot, the server runs 6%CPU during peak hours.During the non-peak hours until the next day something apparentlyhappens. The next day (2nd day after a reboot), it jumps to 40%CPUduring peak hours. The server will continue to run at 40%CPU duringpeak hours until the next reboot. This phenomenon has been occurringfor 6 months or more and the traffic on the server is the same for day1 as it is for day 2,3,4,... This database was on another server with100+ dbs and exibited the same behavior, thus bringing that server toits knees, and thus we had to move it to the server in question with noother dbs.I have googled my eyes out, Microsoft site, white papers, perfmon,SQLDiag, PSSDiag, execution plans, index tuning wizard, and the listgoes on! I currently have a case open with Microsoft that has beenopen for months now. I have been passed around to the 3rd "MS TechSpecialist". I have ran PSSDiag a total of 6 times for them for hourson end. I have changed MAXDOP. I could give more information, but Iwould be here for days. I am running out of patience/ideas andMicrosoft is apparently blowing smoke.Any ideas are greatly appreciated!Thanks in advance!JL

If I am running SQL Server 2005 in a clustered environment, what is the safest way to restart the SQL server agent? It is currently running but I need to restart it for maintenance purposes.
Is the safeway way to restart is to login to the SQL Server Management Studio as the system administrator, select the SQL Server Agent object, right-mouse click and select "Restart?"

Hello,
I've got a couple of jobs who have a odbc connection to a AS400 machine. But when these jobs run they won't stop anymore. I've got to stop these jobs manually so that the next day the jobs can start again as scheduled. The jobs did run all the packages succesfully. Does somebody know how this is possible? It did work fine but since a couple of weeks they just won't stop anymore. I hope you can help me! :S

I have just installed SQL Server 2005. The machine had an expired version of SQL Express on it which I removed. Now when i go to open the Management Studio it says it can't connect. When I check the service, it is set to automatic using the local account but is not running. When I start it, it throws an error stating that it started and then stopped. The first error record in the log file states:
Server TCP provider failed to listen on [ 'any' <ipv4> 1433]. Tcp port is already in use.
Could this be causing the problem? How do I check to see what is using 1433? In general, what the heck did I do wrong during the install? One article said something about the new installation thinking it was still the expired version. Could there be something left in the registry from the old version of Express causing this?
Thanks in advance for the help

I am looking into a problem where someone has reported their SQL Server Express has stopped working after the system goes into hibernation.
Has anyone heard of Windows Services not starting back up after hibernating or standby?
I have tested this numerous times and not run into the problem.

Sorry i think i may have posted this in the incorrect forum before - if i have done it again here can someone tell me where i should post this please, thanks:
Hi,
we are having problems with a server Intel RZeon 3ghz, 3gb ram running 2003 service pack 2 with a 70gb drive and and 400 gb drive all with adequate free space. There are 6 hard disks in total and i assume operating at least RAID 5. We have SQL2000 server with a few standard sized databases and a connection to one other server.
A few months ago the back up of SQL server databases started taking 4- 5 hours when before it took 20 minutes. We had actually lost one of our disks in the RAID array and it before this was spotted by our engineers we reindexed the sql databases and defragged both 70gbC: and D: 400gb drives hoping to correct this slow down. Unfortunately the new disk had not been correctly seated and this was why it was taking 4-5 hours. After fixing the disk the backups took 12 minutes again but then started taking 2-3 hours after a few days.
The reindex/defrag did seem to improve the speed of the backups to 12 minutes (from 20 minutes) when the backup did function correctly (also the sql databases' performance improved). However the backups only take 12 minutes after a server reboot - this can last from only 2, up to 5 backups(days) in a row before a slow down to 2-3 hours and again only a reboot will sort out this problem.
NB this intermittent slowdown only occurred after the disk failure.
We have tried monitoring SQL server and can find no CPU/RAM intensive clashes or long running jobs interferring with the back up. Does anyone know what might be going on here? and if there are any server monitoring tools that may help us discover what is causing this problem ?
thanks for your help
best regards

I have a situation that I was wondering if anyone has ever ran into before. It has to do with one of my MS SQL servers. The hardware is a ALR/Gateway 9000R with 4 PP200's, 1 Gb RAM, and a RAID 5 with 72 Gb storage. The NIC card is an ATM 155 Mbit card connected directly to our fiber backbone.
I have WinNT 4.0 Server Enterprise Edition loaded with SP4 and MS SQL Server 6.5 Enterprise Edition with SP5 installed.
I have 7 seperate active databases on the server supporting 7 different applications. The server has been on-line for approximately 4 weeks and just recently (last Thursday) it has started to "lock up" every couple of days. By lockup I mean that it starts to reject all requests by all users. No one can connect to the server including myself. The MS SQL error log grows and grows until we reboot the server. The error logs are 100 Mb or larger in size due to rejection errors being repeated over and over again.
There has been no change made to the server since initial installation.
The error in the MS SQL error log that keeps on being repeated is...
"Message 17308: Kernelerror - Lazywriter. Process (process ID number) generated access violation; SQL Server is terminating this process."
We have an incident in with Microsoft but they are not responding fast enough.
I was hoping that someone out there may have had this type of occurrance happen before.
Any suggestions?
Jim

This computer gets set to autostart the SQL Server Service, which is set to local, (have also tried local network and user specific), and everything works fine. But when it gets rebooted, the service refuses to start.
We disabled the Mcafee and Windows firewall. No effect.
The SQL Browser and Full Text Index Services start automatically just fine.
Anyone have any experience with this?

Hello everyone. I'm having a problem with the sql server agent occasionally not executing its scheduled jobs, and unless the sql server agent is restarted they will not execute according to their schedule. I've read many posts on people having problems with running a package manually and then not being able to run it in a job, although that is not my problem since these are jobs that have all run successfully historically, and only until the agent is restarted do they start working again. It is the strangest thing.....we have many different jobs on this server and all of them will just mysteriously stop being executed. Two other things of note, the agent and server processes both run on AD accounts, and we receive this error:
SQL Server Scheduled Job 'X' - Status: Failed - Invoked on: 2007-10-27 02:00:00 - Message: The job failed. Unable to determine if the owner (ADadacct) of job 'X' has server access (reason: Unable to connect to server - check SQL Server and SQL Server Agent errorlogs).
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I was trying to migrate an ASP application from Access to SQL Server 2005 express, and found surprisingly that some code stops working which would seem to be independent of the data source. For example:
qtext = "SELECT MainText, TextType FROM MessageText WHERE [etc. etc. -- the query is OK]"
rsMain.open qtext, dbcon, , , adCmdText
if not (rsMain.BOF and rsMain.EOF) then
rsMain.MoveFirst
do while not rsMain.EOF
select case rsMain.fields(1).value
case 1
session("headline") = rsMain.fields(0).value
case 2
introtext = rsMain.fields(0).value
case 6
helptext = rsMain.fields(0).value
end select
rsMain.MoveNext
loop
end if
rsMain.Close
"rsMain" is an ADO recorset which defaults to a forward-only cursor as opened above; dbcon is an ADO database connection. Nothing fancy; and it has been working for years as expected with Access. But the recordset seems to behave differently when SQL Server is the data source (even though the whole point of ADO is to provide a level of abstraction, and I expected it not to change.) In the code above, checking the value of "rsMain.Fields(1).value" causes "rsMain.Fields(0).value" to disappear or become inaccessible. As a simple debug exercise, I tried response.writing "rsMain.Fields(0).value", a block of text, prior to the select case block, and it works fine once (as long as rsMain.Fields(1).value has not been accessed), but then a second write comes up empty.
Is it reasonable to expect that ADO recordsets and cursors function differently if SQL server is the data source vs. Access? Is this documented anywhere?
