Rolling Back Transaction Logs Database
Feb 3, 2004
I have a Development database and I want to roll it back to Monday morning. I backed up the database and used the command:
RESTORE DATABASE ITTEST
FROM ITTEST20040203
WITH NORECOVERY
GO
RESTORE LOG MyNwind
FROM ITTEST20040203
WITH RECOVERY, STOPAT = 'FEBRUARY 2, 2004 09:00 AM'
GO
The transaction logs have never been truncated.
But it does not seem to have worked. It this the best way to do a roll back the database or have I missed out something.
thanks.

I have a stored procedure that calls another stored procedure with thefirst stored procedure opening a transaction:BEGINSET XACT_ABORT ONBEGIN TRANSACTIONdoes various updates/insertscalls 2nd stored procedure to proccess updates/inserts common to manyother stored proceduresdoes more various updates/insertscommitENDThe problem I'm having is that within the 2nd stored procedure is thatif it encounters an error, it does not roll back the entiretransaction and I finish up with missing records in the database. Amusing this in the 2nd stored procedure:if(@TypeId1 = @TypeId2 and @Line1 <'' and @Line2 <'')beginRAISERROR('error message', 16, 1)RETURNendWhat could the problem be? From what I've read, it seems as thoughyou can't have an open transaction within one sp that calls another spand it maintains the same transactoin? Is this corrrect?I tired the following too, and I still couldn't get it to work. Anyideas anyone?************ sp 1 ***********Declare @AddressError char(3)SET XACT_ABORT ONBEGIN TRANSACTIONexec Sp2@AddressError OUTPUT,@variable1,@variable2,etc. etc************** sp 2 *****************@AddressError char(3) OUTPUT,if(@TypeId1 = @TypeId2 and @Line1 <'' and @Line2 <'')beginRAISERROR('error message', 16, 1)RETURNendSET XACT_ABORT ONBEGIN TRANSACTIONprocess updates/insertsSet @AddressError = 'no'Commit******** back to sp 1************If @AddressError <'no'BEGINrollback transactionENDcontinue doing updates/insertscommit

Hi,
I have a case where I read from SQL Server DB and write to a flat file.
I have one Data Flow Task inside which I have a OLEDB source component that feeds rows to a script component that writes to a flat file. I have set the txn attributes for the container to "Required" and "Read committed" . But I find that rows are written to flat file even when I throw an exception from my script component. Question is how do I prevent rows from being written to the flat file if error/exception happens. I want the whole process to be in a single transaction.
Thanks

Ive got an insert statement that fails, and below that I have code like the following:
IF @@ERROR <> 0
BEGIN
-- Roll back the transaction
ROLLBACK
-- Raise an error and return
RAISERROR ('Error INSERT INTO Address.', 16, 1)
print 'test was here'
RETURN
END
However, there is now rollback and the inserts below it are going through.
what do i have wrong ?

hi,
i want to create a disaster recovery site, to which i can fail over (not automatically),
and also to have the option to return the database to a point in time?
for example,
if my principal server fails in 17:00,
i want to have the option to make the mirror server available for users from 17:00 (or at least close to that time),
and also to be able the return to the data from 16:00 (in the mirror site).
Is it possible, and what is the best way to do it?
Thanks.

I have a page that runs a transaction correctly after a button click.
I want to allow someone to click a button that rolls back the transaction, after the transaction runs on the first button click.
I can also successfully roll back within the first button click.
I'm getting a NullReference error when trying to access SqlTransaction.Rollback() outside the button click.
If SqlTransaction.Commit() completes without error can SqlTransaction.Rollback() be called after?
I tried making 'trans' a more global variable and it still gave me the error.
Button Click 1:
Dim trans As SqlTransaction
trans = connection.BeginTransaction()
try
'run SQL Statement
trans.Commit()
Catch e As Exception
trans.Rollback()
throw e
end try
Button Click 2:
trans.Rollback()

We have a high volume database with 1000's of users and 1000's of procs. Our application enforces a 20 second timeout on all connections.
We can't adjust the 20 seconds - this is a business rule.
It sometimes happens that a proc does not complete within 20 seconds and then times out halfway though. This causes data inconsistency where 50% of the code was saved to the DB and 50% was not - seeing that a stored proc is not transactional and therefor does not roll back the code.
We can't put the code in a TRANSACTION in order to roll back when a time out occurs, because this causes exclusive locks on the tables.
So I guess my question is:
Is it possible to undo/rollback all the code in a proc when a timeout occurs - without using a TRANSACTION? And if a TRANSACTION is the only way - how do I avoid the exclusive lock and blocks?

Does anybody know of a way to rollback SQL Server 2005
databases back to SQL Server 2000? Is there a way of doing it without
resorting to Copy Database Wizard? I love to find a way of attaching a SS 2005 database
to a SS 2000 instance without any issues.
I recently upgraded to SS 2005 and I am very unhappy with the SS 2005 and I
want to rollback to SS 2000, which was a lot more stable. I am having
several major issues that are affecting my whole company's day-to-day
operations and the managers are not happy. Some of the issues include
night time batch running very sluggish for no apparent reason. This is a
biggest problem because it only occurs once or so a week and causes a disturbance
with the daily activities when the night time processing isn€™t completed on
time. The rest of the time, the batch processing runs great, even a little better then on SS 2000. I
don't believe it is a matter of my application needing to be retuned because if
that was the case, then why isn't it running sluggish every night? Also,
it's never the same day that the sluggish behavior occurs. If it was occurring
on the same night, then I would have something to investigate within our
application, but it doesn't. Another issue that I am having involves a
night time job that restores a copy of the production database to the Data
Warehouse server to be used for updating the data warehouse. Again, most
of the time it runs great (~2 1/2 hours), but once or twice a week, it goes
stupid and takes 6 1/2 hours for no apparent reason. Again, it is not happening
the same day either, which could give me something to invesigate. On SS 2000, this same job ran flawlessly. Never I did I run into situation that the
database restoration took that long to run. Even another issue involves a SQL Server Agent Job that was put into suspended
state. What's a suspended state and how can I get it out of suspended
state? I can find no information about suspended state in BOL. I
did a Google and nothing came up. If this suspended state was put
in for security reasons, great, but then tell me how I can remove the suspended
state. I am also not happy with the
fact that I can't get accurate information about the queries that are actively
running at that particular moment. In SS 2000, when I noticed high CPU
usage on the server, I would run the sp_who2 active stored proc and it would
show me all the active thread and how much CPU it was consuming. I would
then find the running threads with the highest CPU numbers and investigate the
query and see if we could improve it. Now in SS 2005, I get in the same
situation and run the sp_who2 stored proc, and there is no smoking gun.
All of the active threads are showing very little CPU usage, which I am very
suspect of. What the heck happen to sp_who2? I looked at some of
the other ways of looking at running processes (i.e... sys.sysprocesses) and
they don't appear to be giving the information that I need.
I am very unhappy and I just want to roll back to SS 2000 and wait a couple of
years before I upgrade to SS 2005.

I have created a DTS Package that does the following:
1 Delete all data from table 1 (SQL Task)
2 Import Data from .csv file into table 1 (Data import)
3 insert records from table 1 into table 2 when they dont exist in table 2 (SQl Task)
This all works fine, but now i want a rollback function in step 1 and 2.
So when Step 1 is finished and something goes wrong i want the deleted data back.
Can somebody help me?
Thanks in advance.

I want to insure that each of my insert statements in a stored proc are rolled back if any of the inserts fail. I already have the below statement with error handling but is this correct? It seems to me that all the steps should be made part of an entire transaction so if one part fails then it all fails. Can someone help me w/ the syntax of this??
CREATE PROCEDURE Addrecords AS
--USERS
INSERT INTO [Production].[dbo].[USERS]([LastName], [UserName], [EmailAddress], [Address1], [WorkPhone], [Company], [CompanyWebsite], [pword], [IsAdmin], [IsRestricted],[AdvertiserAccountID])
SELECT dbo.fn_ReplaceTags (convert (varchar (8000),Advertisername)), [AdvertiserEmail], [AdvertiserEmail],[AdvertiserAddress], [AdvertiserPhone], [AdvertiserCompany], [AdvertiserURL], [AccountNumber],'3',0, [AccountNumber]
FROM production
WHERE not exists (select * from users Where users.Username = temp.AdvertiserEmail)
AND validAD=1
IF @@ERROR <> 0
BEGIN
ROLLBACK TRAN
RETURN
END
--PROPERTY
INSERT INTO [Production].[dbo].[Property]([ListDate],[CommunityName],[TowerName],[PhaseName],[Unit], [Address1], [City], [State], [Zip],[IsActive],[AdPrintId])

We have installed SQL Server 2000 Service Pack 4 recently and have had various issues with some of our Stored Procedures. (which we didn't have with SP 3)
We are looking at our options regarding rolling back to Service Pack 3.
Can this be done ?
&
If so, is there a method documented on how to do this ?
Any advice would be appreciated.

I have a stored proc that is executed from within another stored proc, both of these procs run transactions in them that update data.
Now if either of these 2 SPs fail i want to be able to roll back the transactions that have occured so that the data doesn't change.

Don't know if this is possible or not:
Goal: set security on running specific stored procedures based upon user login and databse access
I have some DBA's who want to retain full control of databses / stored procedures as they now have but I want to restrict or rollback some of the changes that were implemented when the sql 2005 was set up. The sql 2005 EE is in a clustered system and uses Mixed Mode Authentication.
An example of what I want to restrict: The DBA's want to be able to view and kill processes for the different databases that are installed under their instance. The problem is other customer databases are also under the same instance.
Is their a way I can combine or have the stored procedure sp_lock only show the processes for the databases they have access to based upon their login? My concern is they will kill a process and affect the other customers.
Thanks for any info or pointers.

I would appreciate a bit of advice here. There is a largish complaint here regarding a cutomer who has entered data in 1 of our online forms, but we suspect this was then overwritten by a cached form she also had open.
Anyway to cut a long story short i need to roll back the database to a point in time.
Not something i have ever had to do.
The row where the id field is equal to 3352, and this would have been written to the database at 14:58:36 on 08-aug-2005. This was over written by the data in row with id 3380 at about 11am this morning, now is this is a live database on a webserver so i cant compromise its uptime as it get written to about 3 times a minute, so how should i go about this?
Anyway, what do you think?
Cheers

I have a quick question.
I need to execute some stored procedures in certain steps... all performing some inserts/updates
What i need is, a mechanism, by which i can roll back to the previous state if i encounter an exception (either in the app or SP)
so, if the my first two SP execute fine, perform their functionality like insert/update, and the third one fails...
how can i roll back to the initial state in ASP.NET.
would appreciate any info.
or redirection to the the location where i can look up some info on that.

The log file for database 'db_sys' is full. Back up the transaction log for the database to free up some log space.
But I don't know how to back up the transaction log for the database.
Do I need TRUNCTE LOG (in E.M) to free up some log space?
I only know back up all the database using ALL TASKS -> BACKUP DATABASE in E.M. Please help me. Thanks in advance.

We had a siutation last night in our production environment that forced us to revert back to an earlier version of the database (before a major code rollout that failed). After restoring the days full backup (with NORECOVERY), and then restoring a DIFF backup (FULL RECOVERY and had checked Preserve Replication Settings)...the transaction replication failed.

I've tried reinitializing the publication/subscription and while that took brand new snapshots and copied it over to the replicated data server, it did not fix the problem.I read from a different post that I could try running "sp_replrestart" but that ran for about a half an hour and didn't appear to do anything but fill up our log files...did I not wait long enough?
The only thing I know to do at this point is to drop the publication on the production server and rebuild it completely (and with all the tables we're replicating that would take quite a bit of time.

I am going to use the backup and restore function to copy data from one server to the other server. We would like to keep the servers in sink at this point (not instantaneously but update the server say once a day) and I would like to do this by using the back up transaction logs. I have tried to back up from individual transaction logs but in also seems to restore the full database also. The database is roughly 6 gig and transaction logs are about 25- 50 meg. I really do not want to have to restore the database every time.
I know I could set up replication but this has been more of a pain administering this on a daily basis. I would like to do a schedule and forget type of thing. This is going to be done on 6.5.
Any suggestions would be helpful
Thanks
