I have a Requirement where I want to backup my ReportServer key evey night to a file. Not sure if there is already any utility available on the internet but when I went to createa simple utility I was stuck where I dont have a way to run the rskeymgmt command silently.
Does anybody know of such a utility which can be scheduled on a nightly basis or alternatively is there a way where one can run the RsKeymgmt utility from the command prompt with out being prompted for the "Are you sure want to extract the key from the Report Server? Yes (y)/ No (n)"
Does anybody know if rskeymgmt can be run silently? When I run the RsKeymgmt utility from the command prompt it reponses "Are you sure want to extract the key from the Report Server? Yes (y)/ No (n)" but I need to execute this tool in my code.
I want to know how can i can use the bcp coomand to import a text file into a SQL database table . The text file contains info. like servername , date , time , logininfo and description .
The problem is i cannot import that file into the table through data import wizard . The wizard is not able to separate the fields properly and the import takes place with mixed up data in different columns . The separator in the text file is colon . I even tried fixed length with manual column separation . The text in the text file are not aligned properly as these are log files generated by the system which i am trying to import in a table .
So how can use the bcp command to specify the column length properly and seperate the fields uniformly so that the data gets imported neatly .

I am currently in the process of transfering data from an existing SQL 6.5 server to new box. Both boxes have SQL 6.5 with SP4. I having a problem with a paticular database transfer. The Database/Object transfer utility starts and then about 20% in it says that it is complete. The transfer creates all the objects in the new server but does not transfer the data. I have manually transferred the data but I am curious if anyone else has had this problem or if this is a known bug. Just curious. Thanks

I am trying to do BCP from a comma separator .txt file to upload it into two tables. That is I want the first row (4 columns of header details ) into one table and from the second row (21 columns each of detail rows) to be uploaded into another table. I have written a batch file to upload the header details by giving the first and last column as 1.It is working fine. But when I try to upload the detail rows into another table by giving the first row as 2, the bcp is not able to read from the second row. It skips the second row and reads from the third row. This happens for all separators like pipeline separators also.So to avoid this I have to give blank 21 separators(i.e. , or |) in the second row to avoid the loss of data. Please provide a solution for this, as I cannot insist my customer to provide me a text file with blank comma in the second row. Thanks and Regards, S.Raghuraman

The following webpage desribes the rs utility:- http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms162839.aspx
And it says that rs supports the optional parameter, -ltimeout
Can someone tell me what this timeout does/means?
We are passing in a VB.NET script file that reads an XML file that executes a series of reports. Does the timeout apply to the whole VB.NET script file, or to the individual execution of each report?
Can you also tell me, what happens if it times-out? Does SQL Server kill the SQL job generating the report? Or does it just disconnect the client from the server leaving the job to continue generating the report?
I'm trying to use the bcp utility to transfer data from an SQL Server table (CUSTOMERS) to a text file (test.txt).
Here is what I have: DECLARE @FileName varchar(50) SET @FileName = 'C: est.txt'
EXEC bcp BAirwaysDB..CUSTOMERS out @FileName -S<servername> -T
only I keep getting the error: Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 4 Incorrect syntax near '.'.
and when running: bcp BAirwaysDB..CUSTOMERS out C: est.txt -S<servername> -T
on the command line I get: SQLState = 28000, NativeError = 18456 Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Login failed for user 'RIVERAMelanie'. SQLState = 42000, NativeError = 4060 Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Cannot open database "BAirways" requested by the login. The login failed.
Can you see where I'm going wrong with this? Any feedback would be really appreciated.
I have been successful at setting up three or four DTS packages to runusing the DTSrun command line utility and the Windows scheduler untilnow. The latest package gives me the following error no matter what Itry.Error: -2147217355 (80041035); Provider Error: 0 (0)Error string: General error -2147217355 (80041035).Error source: Microsoft Data Transformation Services (DTS) PackageHelp file: sqldts80.hlpHelp context: 705I googled the error but got only two hits, only one of which actuallydiscussed the error. That one talked about the security and ID contextof the system agent but I can't even run the package from the commandline, never mind using the Windows chron. The DTS command line I'musing looks like this:DTSRun /S MyServerInstance /R DBName /N MyDTSPacakgeName /EVariations included /U MyUserName /P MyPassWord and a couple others.Next step would have been to use /!Y and /!C to create an encoded batchfile to use for the Windows scheduler.Any help would be most appreciated.Randy
I'm getting some errors when I run rs.exe from command line with regard to Parameters, and was hoping I might get some help here. I'm somewhat new to RS. I'm running SQL 2000 and RS 2000 on a Windows 2003 Server.
Here is my script: *********************************************************** ' File: RunReport.rss Dim format as string = "Excel" Dim fileName as String = "C:Export2.xls" Dim reportPath as String = "/APSAgentCourseCompletionByUserGroup"

As you can see, right now I've got all 5 report parameters hard-coded.
Here is the command line that I'm using as well as the error that I receive:
rs.exe -i c:RunReport.rss -s http://localhost/reportserver -t Unhandled exception: The value of parameter 'Parameters' is not valid. Check the documentation for information about valid values.
Any insight that anyone can provide is greatly appreciated.
In my transactional push replication I had differences, which were reported correctly by the utility tbalediff.
I created with the tablediff utility all necessary statements to correct them.
Afterwards I ran tablediff again to check if everything is ok.
It wasn't, I got a lot of mismatches.
The reason for those mismatches are columns from type "float". It looks like that float values are not generated correctly in insert statements. We had differences in the values and from that point on we have mismatches.
Does anyone has an idea how to get rid of those reported mismatches?!?!
ok. so, i've gotten the bcp utility to work and now i'd like to string all the prompts together and place them in a job to be scheduled to autorun. i don't have much experience in this arena and appreciate any help or suggestions. I'd love to be able to run (from the command prompt) a file takes care of synchronizing all my tables.
I have an additional concern. I'd like to retain the integrity of my primary keys but I notice that if i delete the information then add new, my primary key starts where it leaves off (in other words, if del. then synch. a table with 6 records, after the synch. my primary key increments starting at7). Is there a way, using the bcp util. to update records based on the primary key, copy the key verbatim, or a way to configure the table to help out with this? I know if i drop and recreate the tables as part of the job, i'm good to go but is there away around that step?

I'm getting errors in EM when trying to connect to one of my registered servers. When the Client Network utility is using TCP/IP as the default protocol I get:
A connection could not be established to xxxxx - General network error. Check your network documentation. ConnectionOpen (connect())...
But if I switch to use Named Pipes I connect just fine.
This worked just fine up until last week.. We're going through Tokenring to Ethernet conversions.. Is this a bigger network issue?
