Hi
I am trying to run a batch file stored on different server from the one that SQL Server is on using T-SQL. I am using the following syntax:
EXEC master..XP_CMDShell '\hit1DEVArchivingArchivingDataFiles.zipdata.bat'
But it doesnt seem to be working, it states that it is not recognised as an internal or external command.
Any ideas?
Thanks
Hi
Is it possible using T-SQL to run a batch file located on different server, ie. PC1 has SQL Server on it, PC2 has the batchfile, I need to run the batchfile stored on PC2 on PC1.
Thanks
Exec master..xp_cmdshell "bcp sdnetpro..nbtorder11 out d:databtorder11.txt /c /t /Sservername /Usa /Ppassword"
Hi, this code run fine from within sql server query window. I want to put this code in a batch file and run the batch file.. it did not work. someone told me the revised code is :
bcp sdnetpro..nbtorder11 out d:databtorder11.txt /c /t,/r -Sservername -Usa -Ppassword"
This is not working. Please if anyone knows how to fix this, I would appreciate. One more thing, how can I confirm that the bcp has successfully done. do I have to create a log file and if so what is the code to create this log file.
thanks

Hello,
I am looking for some way to run a sql query from a batch file on the SQL server. The query needs a user entered parameter, if that can be accomodated it would be great.
I read about some osql command & tried to run it but it kept saying "Server does not exist or access denied."
Please give me the steps to go about this.
Thanks,

Is there a way to run/call a batch file from a stored procedure?
Or, is there a way to run/call a batch file from a trigger?
I've written a small dos batch script that runs a simple query throughosql and then calls an exe which sends an email if the returned value

I have create a batch file to execute a stored proc to import data.
When I run it from the server (Remote Desktop) it works fine, but if I share the folder and try to run it from my pc, it doesn't do anything. I don't get an error, it just doesn't do anything. My windows user has admin rights in SQL. Why is it not executing from my PC?

I am using the following batch file to execute a script that creates a db and all its objects in the local sql express:
sqlcmd -S (local)SQLExpress -i C:CreateDB.sql
This works fine, but I'm wondering if there's an easy way to put the script in the batch file, so users don't have to worry about putting the script in the C drive. I tried getting rid of the i parameter and pasting the script from the sql file into the batch file, but it didn't work.
Thanks,

Hi,
I'm trying to run a simple batch file from a SQL job (SQL 7.0 sp4). No errors are received but the job does not complete. When I try to run the job manually, I get a message stating "Error 22022: SQLServerAgent Error: Request to run job my_job (from User DomainAdminUser) refused because the job is already running from a request by Schedule 127 (Schedule 1).
The services are running as a domain admin account.
Help!
Thanks in advance.
I need to create a program that will run Client Access to download data from the AS400 to a flat file, then run SQL DTS to import the data into a table for use by another software package.
I've created a bat file that does that using the CA RTOPCB command and the SQL DTSRUN utility. Problem is that it appears that I need to first check to see if there is a table in SQL and if there is to delete it. Otherwise, rather than overlay the existing data in the table it adds to it.
Is there a way to issue a SQL drop table in DOS? Or am I missing something that could be done in SQL?
The DTSRUN is using a local package and CA is using a transaction request.
I've have been sent a large number scritps to update one of the databases i look after. Problem is there are hundreds of individal script files, all of which need to be run.
Is there a script / tool i could use, which would run all of the .sql files in a certain directory and update the database?
I can't seem to find anything built into SQL Server. Job schedular would seem to be the closest thing, but it would still require you select each script needed to be run.
Any ideas would be great.
Thanks

I want to keep applications off of my database server so I have set up an application server (APPServer1). On APPServer1 I have a batch file that bcp’s data from DBServer1 into DBServer2 and is being passed the server name of DBServer2. On DBServer1 I have mapped a drive to the directory of APPServer1 and have created a task to run the batch job and pass the server name. So here’s my problem: when the scheduler runs the job, the bcp to DBServer2 fails, because it can not find DBServer2. When I execute the exact same command line in a DOS Box on DBServer1, the bcp works fine. I have verified that the server name is being passed correctly to the batch job in both methods.
Thanks in advance.

I have created a master controller package which runs as follows
deletes all the log files -> deletes few flat files on different drives -> preprocess task(execute package task) -> c# executable (execute process tasks) -> postprocess tasks (execute package tasks)
i need a create a task just before the preprocess task with an user input asking whether he wants to run a particular batch file before proceeding to preprocess. if the user says yes it should run a batch file followed by preprocess tasks, c# and post process or else it should directly goto preprocess, c# and post process (neglecting batch file task)
can anyone help me how to do it.
Hi,
I had created 2 packages... one is the parent package and contains a 50 iterations loop running a secondary package for each iteration... i had reached the following conclusion:
My package takes an average of 5 seconds from the time it ends executing one iteration and starts another... after about 30 iterations... my average time between end and start increases significantly to about 12 secs or even more...
All packages have delay validation set to false, and receive several variables from the parent package... Has for the logging, it is done to files based on a path coming from a variable in the parent package.
To execute the parent package i am using dtexecui.exe and i consider this behavior rather strange... had anyone experienced the same? Can anyone test this?
My environment is a 4 x64 processors with 8gb memory, so i guess its good enough to get 0 secs from end to start
I already consider the first 5 seconds weird...
Best Regards,
how to catch batch id from a running stored procedure. My intention is that when we run store procedures in batch we are running a lot of procedures and I would like to log each run and if the same procedure is running several times per day I need to separate the runs by a "batch id" for the specific run. I have created a logtable and a logprocedure that logs the start and end of a procedure run and also some values for the run. So I'm trying to find a way of fetching the "batch id" that the sp is running so I can separate the runs when analyzing the logtable. I have looked at metadata tables and also in the table sys.sysprocesses but I cannot find BATCH ID.

I have the "Northwind" database in my Sql Server Management Studio Express.
In my C:ProSSEAppsSamplesForChapter02Chapter02 folder, I have the following 2 files:
(1) ListColumnValues (MS-DOS Batch File)
sqlcmd -S .sqlexpress -v DBName = "Northwind" CName = "CompanyName" TName =
"Shippers" -i c:prosseappschapter02ListListColumnVales.sql -o
c:prosseappschapter02ColumnValuesOut.rpt
(2) ListColumnValues (Microsoft SQL Server Query File)
USE $(Northwind)
GO
SELECT $(CompanyName) FROM $(Shippers)
GO
When I ran the following SQLcmd:
C:ProSSEAppsSamplesForChapter02Chapter02>ListColumnValues.bat
I got the following "ColumnValuesOut.rpt" with error messages:
'Northwind' scripting variable not defined.
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Server L1P2P3SQLEXPRESS, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near '$'.
'CompanyName' scripting variable not defined.
'Shippers' scripting variable not defined.
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Server L1P2P3SQLEXPRESS, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near 'CompanyName'.
I copied these T-SQL statements from a book and I do not know how to correct them.
Please help and tell me how to correct these errors.

The Sql Server database can only see the local drive.
I would like to set up a batch file that will copy a SQL Server
backup file from the local drive to the network drive. I would
like to append the file date to the end of the copied file. I
assume a batch file can accomplish this but I am new to batch
file writing. Does anyone have code that they already created
for this sort of task??
Thank you!
In my environment, there is maintenance plan configured on one of the server and while running DBCC checkdb on a database of size around 200GB, log file usage of tempdb is increasing and causing the maintenance job to fail.
What can I do to make the maintenance job run successfully, size of the tempdb database is only 50GB and recovery model is set to simple. It cannot be increased as the mount point on which it is residing is 50GB.

Can someone show me an example of the syntax required to execute multiple BCP commands within the same batch (*.bat) file?
Sorry if this is a bit of a basic question, but not being a programmer by profession, I need to plead ignorance. I've tried a few things, but I just can't seem to figure it out.
Thanks!

Hi,
I would like to ask someone who could help me with one small problem:
I would like to run SQL server task on one of my servers, that will connect
to all other servers (including ones that are not SQL servers, ie: Exchange,
Test Server etc) one at the time, and that will execute one batch file (update.bat) that is residing on each server under C: drive.
Batch file will copy some things from all of the servers to one server.
Thanks, in advance.

Dear All,
i need to put a query in a batch file to be easy to use by the user.
jusy only double click on it and it will work.
can any one help?
I'm trying schedule a batch file to run as a job from sql server agent. The batch file copies files from one server directory to a directory on another server. The batch file works properly when executed directly. The job is being executed under the sql service account login. I've given the service account access to both the source and destination directories.
When I try to run the job it fails with an "Access is denied" error on both the source and destination directories (as read from job history).
Any ideas?
