SQL 2005 Snapshot Problem
Jan 30, 2006
Best all,
I have an urgent problem.
I have SQL Server 2005 installed in Windows 2000.
In SQL Server Management Studio's SQL Editor, when I run following:
USE bugdb2
SET ALLOW_SNAPSHOT_ISOLATION ON;
SET TRANSACTION ISOLATION LEVEL SNAPSHOT
I get following errors:
Msg 195, Level 15, State 5, Line 6
'ALLOW_SNAPSHOT_ISOLATION' is not a recognized option.
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 8
Incorrect syntax near 'SNAPSHOT'.
Please help to solve this problem..
Thank you very much
Mel

Hi
I seem to have a strange problem when applying a snapshot when the tables in the publication have been updated while the snapshot was being generated.
Say for example there is a table called RMAReplacedItem in the publication. When the snapshot starts being applied to the subscriber, a stored procedure called sp_MSins_RMAReplacedItem_msrepl_css gets created that handles an insert if the row already exists (ie it updates the row rather than inserting it). However, after all the data has been loaded into the tables, instead of calling this procedure, it tries to call one called sp_MSins_RMAReplacedIte_msrepl_cssm - it takes the last letter of the table name and adds it to the end of the procedure name.
The worst part is that this causes the application of the snapshot to fail, but it doesnt report what the error is, and instead it just tries applying the snapshot again. The only way i have managed to find which call is failing is to run profiler against the subscriber while the snapshot is being applied and see what errors.
I have run sp_broswereplcmds and the data in there is what is applied to the subscriber - ie the wrong procedure name.
All the servers involved are running sql 2005 service pack 2. The publisher and subscriber were both upgraded from sql 2000, but the distribution server is a fresh install of sql 2005.

Ruprect asked me in this thread (http://www.dbforums.com/showthread.php?postid=4469852#post4469852) to start a thread on snapshot isolation for questions etc, so here it is.
Please have a read of the excellent whitepaper at http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/default.asp?url=/library/en-us/dnsql90/html/sql2k5snapshotisol.asp
and then post any questions.
My team owns snapshot isolation and the devs who wrote it work for me so I can answer all questions you may have.
Thanks

Hi to all,
We have an environment production with a lot of activity all days,
for this reason the time for the maintenance tasks is very short (only
for Reindex and no more).
We must execute all days a DBCC CheckDB command without to affect
the performance server and we have a problem with the temporally
snapshot that is create during this command because usually we have
some load tasks executing at the same time of the DBCC and the size of
the snapshot is too big and produce an error for not enough space on
the disk.
In some documents we have read that when you have an environment
with non NTFS disks the command work like on SQL Server 2000 without
snapshot.This is not our case because we have NTFS disks but we would
like to execute the command without snapshot, with database online and
compatibility level option to SQL Server 2005 (9.0).
Someone know if this is possible?
Thanks in advance,
Prado

One of the things that annoys me in 2005 is that you cannot change the snapshot location during the setup of the replication. Does anyone know if I missed something or if they are going to change that in a future patch?

I have a "merge" publication created, with only Procedures, Views and Functions. (Note I have other merge publications that replicate the tables from the same database). I keep getting the same error (see -below) on various procedures. I cannot find anything wrong with the procedures themselves. I also checked the offending procedure by removing it from the publication and compiling it in the database...it works fine. None of my other publications (all tables) encounter this error. * I have 3 others.
My version of SQL is 9.00.1399.06
Here is the message I am getting. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Note I changed the proc name due to client restrictions.

I am using snapshot replication to copy data from one database to another. I truncate the destination table first. The publisher and the subscriber are different databases on the same server. The data turns into 1 unrecognizable row.
Here is what the source table looks like:
displayTypeID, displayType
1, Title List Formats
2, Title Details
3, Title List Export
4, Pricing Notes
5, clone Mask 001
6, clone Mask 002
7, clone Mask 004
8, clone Mask 008
9, hide From Admin
10, not Common Attr
11, Insert Title
12, title Types
The resulting data looks like this:
DisplayType, displayTypeId
, 1660953600
I see no errors in replication and nothing in the source table looks like bad data that could cause such a malady. I see the problem on two different servers now and identified the source of the problem, the column order is reversed in the source and destination tables. The data types do not even match so I would at the very least expect an error from bcp.

I am having trouble setting up my Pull Subscription and I am new to replication.
I have several servers hosting a databased website that will be the same, except for user input and traffic. Quite simply, I need to copy most tables, SPs and data from network to network. I can't use FTP/Web synch ... as I mentioned the networks do not touch eachother or the internet.
On server Web1, it was easy to create a Publication called Pub via the wizard for my database: TheDB. Then on Web1, again, I added a Subscription to the Publication, indicating my second server, Web2, and the same database name: TheDB (I have already backed up and restored TheDB to all my servers). Here's one of the sp's I ran on Web1:
use [TheDB]
exec sp_addsubscription @publication = N'Pub', @subscriber = N'Web2'', @destination_db = N'TheDB', @sync_type = N'Automatic', @subscription_type = N'pull', @update_mode = N'read only'
GO
This is where I feel stuck. Using the wizard on Web2 doesn't allow me to see Web1. So I tried the following on Web2:
use [TheDB]
exec sp_addpullsubscription @publisher = N'Web1', @publication = N'Pub', @publisher_db = N'TheDB', @independent_agent = N'True', @subscription_type = N'pull', @description = N'', @update_mode = N'read only', @immediate_sync = 1
exec sp_addpullsubscription_agent @publisher = N'Web1', @publisher_db = N'TheDB', @publication = N'Pub', @distributor = N'Web1', @distributor_security_mode = 1, @distributor_login = N'', @distributor_password = null, @enabled_for_syncmgr = N'False', @frequency_type = 1, @frequency_interval = 0, @frequency_relative_interval = 0, @frequency_recurrence_factor = 0, @frequency_subday = 0, @frequency_subday_interval = 0, @active_start_time_of_day = 0, @active_end_time_of_day = 0, @active_start_date = 0, @active_end_date = 19950101, @alt_snapshot_folder = N'', @working_directory = N'', @use_ftp = N'True', @job_login = null, @job_password = null, @publication_type = 0
GO
I copied the snapshot folder, ie. 20070709134423, onto CD and moved it into Web2's default replication folder, but I always receive: cannot connect to Distibutor. I've tried using an Alias, as well, but don't understand exactly how I should point that either. I checked the publication's PAL and my Web2 user has rights and is an owner of the Web2 TheDB database.
Any help is appreciated.

We have two SQL Server 2005 production DB at remote sites. Due to network bandwidth issue, we need to replicate these DBs (publishers and distributers) to central corporate SQL 2000 DB (subscriber for backup and possible reporting (and in rare case as a failover server).
We would start out with backup from SQL 2000 db restored on remote SQL 2005 DBs. When we have DB issue on remote 2005 DB, we want to restore it from central corp. 2000 DB backup. Since two DBs are replicating to central DB, we DO NOT want combined db back up data on restored remote 2005 db. We can restore the db and delete unwanted data before we turn on replication from this restored server. So, this is not a problem.
The real problem is how to avoid snapshot replication (during initialization) when we create a transaction replication on this restored server to avoid over writing data on the central subcriber sql 2000 DB???
HELP!!

Hi there,
I have setup merge replication which successfully synchronizes with a group of desktop users using SQL Compact Edition.
However now I have setup Article Filters and when I attempt to regenerate the snapshot I get the following error:
Invalid column name 'rowguid'.
Failed to generate merge replication stored procedures for article 'AssignedCriteria'.
When I look at publication properties at the Articles page.. All my tables have the rowguid uniqueidentifier successfully added to tables and selected as a compulsory published column, apart from the table above "AssignedCriteria".. Even when I attempt to select this column in the article properties page and press ok, when I come back it is deselected again. ( The Rowguid column is however physically added to the table)
I have scripted the publication SQL and then totally reinstalled from scratch, including the database but for some reason it doesn't like this table. I remove the article filters, but still this "rowguid" is never "selected" in article properties.
We are using Uniqueidentifiers in other columns as well for historical reasons, but this doesn't appear to be a problem in other tables..
DDL For this problematic table is as follows
CREATE TABLE [dbo].[AssignedCriteria](
[AssignedCriteria] [uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL,
[CriteriaName] [varchar](255) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL,
[TargetScore] [numeric](5, 0) NULL,
[HRPlan] [uniqueidentifier] NULL,
[ActualScore] [numeric](18, 0) NULL,
[Criteria] [uniqueidentifier] NULL,
[Employee] [uniqueidentifier] NULL,
[IsActive] [bit] NULL,
[addDate] [datetime] NULL,
[totalscore] [numeric](5, 0) NULL,
[isCalc] [bit] NULL,
[Weight] [decimal](18, 2) NULL,
[ProfileDetail] [uniqueidentifier] NULL,
[rowguid] [uniqueidentifier] ROWGUIDCOL NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [MSmerge_df_rowguid_7FF25DF903B6415FBFF24AC954BC88E4] DEFAULT (newsequentialid()),
CONSTRAINT [PK_AssignedCriteria] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED
(
[AssignedCriteria] ASC
)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]
) ON [PRIMARY] TEXTIMAGE_ON [PRIMARY]
Thanks.

Dear friends
I am a new fellow to replication.What is the problem I am getting is I am not able to create snapShot.Whenever I start Snapshot Agent it is going for half an hour and it will stuck in the case of one view saying like that 'failed to process bulk copy of data from dbo.syncobj_03x666*'.If I am publishing tables only then also I am getting same error.This view created by system.In my case publiher only working as a distributor.I created a SQL username which have access in subscriber & Publisher.Preferably I will be happy if someone suggest what and all are the primary criterias we have to keep in mind while doing Replication
Thanks in Advance

I get the following error message in the job history for

The process could not read file 'acct.sch' due to OS error

Is there something to fix this? It has been running fine
for almost 2 years and suddenly quit. There is a firewall

I've been trying to replicate a database to an off site server using snapshot replication. It is scheduled to run every hour but I've noticed when data is changed at the source it never gets replicated to the destination. Does anyone know why?? I can't use transactional replication beause not all the tables have primary keys and they can't be added due to code. Some tables have id colunms and have been created with the Not for Replication option on the subscriber. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks

2 questions:
1) In snapshot replication, can the subsciber send info back to the publisher (even in a manual process)
2) In snapshot replication, do we need a distributor set up between the publisher and subscriber if there will only be a single subscriber, or can we write directly to it?
Thanks so much for any and all help!

Hi Guys,
We have a production server in East Coast (SQL Server 2000 SP2 - Database size is around 30 Gig). We have a reporting server is the West Coast. We need to replicate (transactional replication every one hour) from East coast to West coast. Is there any way that I can take a backup and restore upto the last transaction backup and then start replication agent on the production (by saying schema and data already exist). Basically we don't wan't to snapshot using FTP or bcp through WAN because it is going to be very slow.
If this is possible, will there be any validation problem.
Please help.
Thanks,
Anu

We have a training server and I've had a request that after each training session, we have the ability to quickly roll the training server back to its previous state so that the next group of people can be trained with the same examples.
Doing a restore requires that the maintenance (defrag, warm cache, etc..) also runs after that before the server performs fast enough.
So I was thinking of snapshots as an alternative. When you roll back to a snapshot, does that invalidate what's in the cache or have any adverse effect on query plans, stats, or indexes?

HiI am relatively new to databases. I would like to be able to run aquery that returns the t_no, b_no, status and cpu for the latestrecord for each unique combination of (t_no, b_no and cpu) before agiven point in time (say @snap_time). d_no is an autoincrementingprimary key.d_no t_no b_no status cpu update_time1 500 3 0 1 3:012 501 3 1 1 3:023 501 3 0 1 3:034 502 3 1 1 3:045 503 3 1 1 3:056 500 3 1 1 3:10In this example, if @snap_time = '3:15' the query would return the(t_no, b_no, status, cpu) for records 3, 4, 5, 6 because 1 issuperceded by 6 (which has the same t_no, b_no, cpu combination butoccurs later) and 2 is superceded by 3.If @snap_time = '3:03', the query would return records 1 and 3 becauserecords 4, 5 and 6 were created at a later update_time and record 3supercedes record 2.The query:SELECT MAX(update_time), t_no, b_no, cpu, statusFROM my_tableWHERE (time <= @snapTime)GROUP BY t_no, b_no, cpureturns an error:Column 'dbo.my_table.status' is invalid in the select list because itis not contained in either an aggregate function or the GROUP BYclause.And even if this did work, ideally I would like to suppress theupdate_time field from appearing.How could I do such a query and is it even possible without usingsomething more sophisticated than a select query?Many thanksJon
