SQL 2012 :: Error In Conflicts Tables In Merge Replication
Feb 13, 2015
There is an error in one of my merge publication. The error is,
The change for the row with article nickname 2336003 (test), rowguidcol {436456F0-F5AD-E411-80CF-5CF3FC1D2D76} could not be applied at the destination. Further information about the failure reason can be found in the conflict logging tables.
When i checked my tables I got following values in rowguid column
publication 436456F0-F5AD-E411-80CF-5CF3FC1D2D76
subscriptionD824D120-23AD-E411-80E3-00155D0E1001

I have set up merge replication between 1 publisher and 9 subscribers (all push subscriptions). Distributor and publisher are located on the same machine.
Although everything seems to work fine from the outside (most of the time), there are a lot of conflicts in the conflict table for the replication. They appear all the time. There are a lot of "download insert failed" conflicts. They always look like in the following three screenshots:
http://www.tronk.be/conflicts/conflict1.JPG
http://www.tronk.be/conflicts/conflict2.JPG
http://www.tronk.be/conflicts/conflict3.JPG
In the same way, there are also many "upload insert failed" conflicts.
In addition to this, there are some "update conflict"s (but a lot less than the other conflicts). Some of them show the same row at both sides:
http://www.tronk.be/conflicts/conflict4.JPG
Others show a different row at the both sides:
http://www.tronk.be/conflicts/conflict5.JPG
The only thing that causes a real problem is the last screenshot, although I don't understand why the other conflicts are there (the inserst statements actually seem to happen anyway, even though there are conflicts). In case of the last screenshot, I can't find any place where an UPDATE actually happens at APP-STB, while I can clearly pinpoint the UPDATE at the other side (which is what actually comes from our program).
One more thing, the system is running on its limits, but all replication seems to be working fine.
I would appriacte any help or comments very much.

Hi,
I am using SQL Server 2000 Merge Replication. Sometimes when the data is replicated there are conflicts which when examined show it is due to voliation of foreign key constraint. But the data (keys) in already present in the master tables. Is there a way to give an order to the way the tables are replicated. This is so because i think the data in the details table is relpicated first instead of the master table. The conflicts are resolved properly when done using the conflict viewer.

Hello!
I got a problem with merge replication. I got a central sql server 2005 database on which i got a publication. Also there are 2 sql servers CE which are subscribers to that publication. I need to add some records on both mobile servers indepently but i'm using primary key as a user id in one table.
So when i add a user on one PDA i use next available number in column ID. In the same time I add a user on other PDA with the same ID, because I don't know that there is such user with the same ID.
Ok then I do synchronization. First PDA synchronizes with server but second tells me that there is a record with the same PK. And my question is. Can these be resolved writing a custom resolver or maybe you know others resolutions, because I think that is a typicall problem but couldn't find any solution other than using ie. HOST_NAME() function.
Thanks for help!

We use autogenerated primary keys in most of our tables. Some of these keys are also foreign keys in other tables. Right now there is only 1 database sever at a central location. But now there is a need to have multiple database servers at different locations. Data from these remote sites needs to be replicated to the central server. Some data would also distribute from central server to selected remote sites.
If I could resdesign, I would have choosen something like GUIDs for the primary keys or combination of something like ServerName and AutoGenerated number as a combined key. But that's not possible right now. How do I handle merge replication conflicts in this case?
I am looking for some pointers as to how to handle this case. If it were just simple table with 1 primary key, that would be easy as I can throw the primary key on remote server and let the central server create a new key when data is inserted. But in my case, a single table can be related to 5 or more other tables through these autogenerated keys. Any help is much appreciated.

I have SQL CE clients replicating against a SQL Server 2005 db using merge replication. The DB has a table A and a table B, which has a foreign key to table A. It is common in my application for records in table A to be deleted on the server. I'm running into issues when a table A record has been deleted, but table B records were created on the clients which point to that record. When I sync I get a conflict because the table B records cannot be applied at the server, and the table A delete cannot be applied at the client.
What I would like to happen is to have the table B records on the client be deleted by the merge process, and to create a log of the event. I've looked into creating a business logic handler to do this, but I'm not sure what type of conflict this is (UpdateDeleteConflict or otherwise), and I'm not sure that deleting the table B records is something I can do in the business logic handler.
This seems like it would be a common problem in merge replication. I'm not locked into using a custom business logic handler at all. Any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks.

Hi all,
We are using a mix of SQL 2005 and 2000 servers and our "main" database server is running SQL 2005 x64 (SP2 ver. 3042).
Our system has run perfectly for months, then subsequent to an SP2 update we are seeing several instances where the data record counts are different for several tables among all the servers.
We are using Merge Replication, with no filters and published every 2 minutes.
Any ideas?
TIA,
Michael

Publisher is 2005 x64, subscribers SS2000 (SP3) and SS2005 x64. Pull agents, no filters on subscriptions. We are seeing many seemingly random conflicts on between SS2000 subscriber and publisher. It happens on several different tables.
One table is never editted, only inserts happening everywhere and deletes happening on the SS2000 subscriber. Deletes will sometimes generate conflict. Reason is '"he row was deleted at 'CTS11.CTS' but could not be deleted at 'cts4a.cts'. Unable to synchronize the row because the row was updated by a different process outside of replication." CTS11 is SS2000 subscriber, CTS4A is publisher.
Probably unrelated bug but when looking at conflicts on this same table in SS2005 conflict viewer, get error "ID is neither a DataColumn nor a DataRelation for table summary (System.dATA)" and then "Column ID does not belong to table summary (System.Data)". ID column is rowguid, only unusual thing about table is that it has varchar(8000) field plus some other fields.
Other tables generate conflicts with this reason "The row was updated at 'CTS11.CTS' but could not be updated at 'cts4a.cts'. The merge process was unable to synchronize the row." I enabled verbose logging in the merge agent but the log file didn't contain any further explanation.
This same topology and schema worked fine when all publishers and subscribers were SS2000.
Any insight into how to fix this would be appreciated.

We have SQL Server 2000 with merge replication at a Publisher and subscriber.
We have some records getting deleted at Publisher and Subscriber and no conflicts are logged.
We have tried the compensate_for_errors setting and this has had no effect.
This is causing serious data corruption and has now become an URGENT issue. Out tech team are almost out of ideas.
Has anyone experienced this or have any ideas as to what to check next?

Hello.
Let me describe first my replication setup:
- SQL Server 2005 SP1 (SP2 coming soon)
- Approximately 35 remote users (Salesrep laptop) using Pull Subscriptions
- Merge (Bi-Directional) (8 articles - tables only)
- Merge (Uni-Directional) (5 articles - tables only)
- Transactional (5 articles - tables only)
Users receive data based on their territory #, therefore they receive their customers sets of data. It happens that customer change from one territory to another but not frequently. When it happens, so far so good, the data is redirected to the new salesrep using the model we configured (Territory table with SUSER_NAME() to filter the data).
Ok, here's my problem. Since a while, I can see in the replication monitor that some users seems to log the same conflict again and again (Merge process). I mean, checking the history for many subscribers, there is always the same number in the "Conflict" colums.
As an example:
- Merge completed after processing 18 data change(s) (4 insert(s), 14 update(s), 0 delete(s), 31 conflict(s))
- Merge completed after processing 27 data change(s) (10 insert(s), 17 update(s), 0 delete(s), 31 conflict(s))
- Merge completed after processing 20 data change(s) (5 insert(s), 15 update(s), 0 delete(s), 31 conflict(s))
and so on...(Those are only 3 historical entries for a single subscriptions but there are many like that, always with the same count of conflict - vary per user). It appears to me that the same conflicts come over and over.
The thing is that if I decide to reinitialize a subscription, conflicts will disappear, therefore I know that it is not a process on the server that keeps changing the data; anyway, even if it was, changes would be applied on the subscription because the server always win in my setup.
Any idea what should I do with this? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Hi,
I was hoping a sharp eye may be able to pick up on what I am doing wrong here, I am i must be making a comon mistake. If necessary I am happy to create and post a sample if necessary.
Problem:
The publication parent table has a filter (defined below) and also has a join filter(defined below) to a child table. When changes are made to the parent and child table and synchronised a conflict is raised. For the child table for some reason the merge agent is saying an explicit update occured at the publisher but the values at the publisher have not changed at all and no sql has been executed to update the publisher rows. This in effect is stopping the changes to the child table being applied until i manually apply them in the conflict resolver. The strange thing is the conflict should not occur in the first place.
Perhaps my SQL server 2005 version? 9.00.2050.00 SP1 Standard Edition
Environment:
SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.2050.00 SP1 Standard Edition
SQL Server Mobile
Detail:
FKs are
FK: Job.JobScheduleID --> JobSchedule.ID
FK: JobDetail.JobID --> Job.ID
All three tables have int based IDs that are auto increment.
Publication Articles:
JobSchedule is download only
Job is Bidirectional, identity range management is MANUAL (only updates occur on this table)
JobDetail is Bidirectional, identity range management is MANUAL (only updates occur on this table)
Filters are of the following form:
Filter Job:
SELECT <published_columns> FROM [dbo].[Job] WHERE convert(nchar,[companyID])=Host_Name() AND [JobCompletedDate] IS NULL AND
( [JobScheduleID] in (SELECT distinct ID from JobSchedule where GETDATE() BETWEEN [JobSchedule].[start] AND [JobSchedule].[end]) )
Join Filter Job --> JobDetail
SELECT <published_columns> FROM [dbo].[Job] INNER JOIN [dbo].[JobDetail] ON [Job].[ID] = [JobDetail].[JobID]
Now the first thing to note with respect to using GetDate() i have read http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms365153.aspx so i thought that i would remove that portion of the Filter on the Job table just to see what happens.
SELECT <published_columns> FROM [dbo].[Job] WHERE convert(nchar,[companyID])=Host_Name() AND [JobCompletedDate] IS NULL
This still did not resolve the issue. I then Remove the AND [JobCompletedDate] IS NULL and it then started working fine (cool) but of course no longer satisfys the rule i want to create (seriously uncool ).
Any ideas out there ?
Much appreciated,
pdns

I have some problem about Merge Replication.i'm trying to merge Database A to Database B in local Server. So Database i want publisher contain this:
Because only Data in Table change therefore so i choosed it 100% Snapshot was generated after that ( Problem not a valid window user i already figured out )After that. I created Local Subscription in same Server ( Pull subscriptions and Subscription type: Client ),now problem is throw out."The schema script 'vwBuyADT_513.sch' could not be propagated to the subscriber."
I tried research so many time in Google but any information i found isn't useful for this problem.This problem still can ignore,Synchronization still running. But after 4-5 Hours running..This messages throw out: "The Publisher failed to allocate a new set of identity ranges for the subscription. This can occur when a Publisher or a republishing Subscriber has run out of identity ranges to allocate to its own Subscribers or when an identity column data type does not support an additional identity range allocation"
My question is:
Is there anyway solve 2 probem? :
1. "The schema script 'vwBuyADT_513.sch' could not be propagated to the subscriber."
2. "The Publisher failed to allocate a new set of identity ranges for the subscription. This can occur when a Publisher or a republishing Subscriber has run out of identity ranges to allocate to its own Subscribers or when an identity column data type does not support an additional identity range allocation"

We are working in a Merge replication environment where we have SQL Server 2005, 11 publications and 2 subscribers.We used to get lot of incidents from the Application owner for blockings, recently we faced a situation where the lead blocker is in sleeping state and the session was used by the merge agent.Checked the query that the session was running, it was sys.sp_MSenumgenerations90;1.

We have a publisher sending data to two remote subscribers. Each of these sites is updating a different field in a particular table with its site name and the current date stamp. This data should then sync to each database to show how up to date the last data change was. This lets us keep an eye on whether sync is good or not.
The problem I've got is one subscriber isn't copying its row to the other servers anymore. It gets the row updates from the other sites in the same table but its own updates to this field aren't getting sent across. Nothing shows up in conflict manager for it and nor should it as no other subscriber should be updating this field. If I validate the subscription the field when then get synced but again no updates after the validation will transfer. The other problem which may be related or indicating another issue is the data transfer rate shown in replication monitor is less than 0.1 rows/sec. Reinitializing isn't an option.

I am trying out merge replication and using web synchronization.However, I am worried that I am missing something because the way it is set up, it strikes me as a bit too insecure.
According to the best practices and security articles on Technet, I am given to understand that:
The SQL Replication Listener (read: the application pool account that will be running the replisapi.dll) has to be the db_owner to both distribution and publisher and be on the PAL list. Windows authenication should be used. That means the merge agents wouldn't need to know the password for those logins.
The basic authenication can be used (with SSL) to authenicate into a Windows user account to then connect to the replisapi.dll.
Here's the rub - I assumed that all I needed was a basic no-rights user account to be then given the execute permission on the replisapi.dll & read permissions to kick off the process. When I browse to the replisapi.dll and authenicate using the no-rights user, I get the expected "SQL Server WebSync ISAPI" message. But when I then run the merge agent, it fails saying that login to the distribution failed for the no-rights user. If I use the application pool's account, then I am able to run merge agent successfully.
But that means I am now looking at storing the password to the application pool account on client. I might have had missed a crucial step to ensure that the logins to the distribution & publication databases are done using the application pool account, not the user authenticated via IIS basic authentication?

I was reading this:
"Adding an identity column to a published table is not supported, because it can result in non-convergence when the column is replicated to the Subscriber. The values in the identity column at the Publisher depend on the order in which the rows for the affected table are physically stored. The rows might be stored differently at the Subscriber; therefore the value for the identity column can be different for the same rows."
I don't understand...
If I create a table with an identity column and publish it. Can the values on the subscriber be different when the data is replicated?
Suppose I have a this table:
1 Name1
2 Name2
3 Name3
Column 1 is identity field and column 2 the name of employees.
If I publish this table , the data can be inserted on the subscriber .pe, with 2 name1 and 1 name3 and 1 name2?
What about if the identify fields is a primary key?

I am using SQL 2005 build 9.0.2227
I have a custom conflict resolver - which fires on update conflicts (using row level tracking)
I have had a couple of occasions when the resolver has failed with the following error:
"The schema of the custom Dataset object implemented in the business logic handler does not match the schema of the source Dataset object. Verify that the custom Dataset object has been correctly defined"
In both cases I found that the row for which a conflict was being handled was not a conflict at all. One was a straightforward non conflicting update at the publisher and the other was a similar update at the subscriber.
I got round the problem by temporarily using a fix version of the conflict resolver dll that either set the custom Dataset to the publisher dataset or the subscriber dataset - depending on where the update had occurred.
When the first error (publisher update) occurred - the resolver code was basing the custom dataset on the publisher dataset - which was presumably empty - so I changed the code to base the custom dataset on the subscriber dataset. The second error therefore occurred when the custom dataset was based on the subscriber dataset - which again was presumably empty
Note that the tables involved in each occasion were different and neither table is filtered.
Is there a known bug in this area?
I am considering trying to change the resolver code to identify false conflicts in order to workround the problem - but this would be difficult to test as I can't reproduce the problem

Hi, eveyone..
I have a problem.
One of developer deleted Merge Replication Job.
However there is no doc for that replication.
What I want to know is like this:
which tables are in that replication?
Is there any system or user tables track down these replication as well as configuration in that replication?
Thanks in advance:-))

I'm trying out a set up as following:
SQL Server 2008 standard as the publisher
SQL Server 2012 express as the subscriber
and I tend to use web synchronization; there is no domain trust.
After following the instructions at MSDN for configuring web synchronization, I have an error that I can't get past - after creating the initial snapshot on the publisher, I try to run replmerg.exe at the subscriber and I always get this error:
"The subscription to publication 'TestReplication' has expired or does not exist."
If I refresh the publisher's "Local Publications" and look within the "TestReplication", it does show that the subscriber is a known subscriber. Likewise, if I refresh subscriber's "Local Subscription", it has an entry for TestReplication publication.
I already verified that the user used by Replisapi.dll has the read permission to the snapshot folder, is a member of PAL, is db_owner of the publishing database and distribution database. I am using self-signed certificate for this test and I have already installed the certificate at the subscriber machine so that HTTPS is trusted. I can run diagnosis from subscriber so I know subscriber can reach and logs are being left at the publisher's IIS.

We have a table in an SQL Server 2012 database that stores tree-like structures. Simplified for the purpose of my question, it has the following format:
Id int identity,
ParentId int,
GroupId int
Each record of the table represents an object identified by Id. An object may or may not have a parent in the same table, such that object.ParentId = parentObject.Id. A root object has ParentId = NULL. There are multiple root objects, so the table in fact stores multiple trees. What’s important is that the tree depth is not fixed, i.e. theoretically there can be any number of ancestor generations for an object. GroupId is a property of a root object; in theory none of the children of a root object has to have GroupId <> NULL; it can be assumed that any child has the same GroupId value as its root object.
A sample table having two roots (one grandparent and one parent), one non-root parent/child and 4 child roots:
Id ParentId GroupId
----------------------------------------------------------
1 NULL 200 root grandparent
2 1 NULL non-root parent/child
3 2 NULL child
4 2 NULL child
5 NULL 300 root parent
6 5 NULL child
7 5 NULL child
The table is not normalised, i.e. there’s no separate {root_object : group} table. However I don’t think normalising the table would solve the problem.
Now the problem. We need to set up merge replication from the table above (Master table) to the table of the same format in another DB. We need to replicate only those rows of the Master table that have a certain fixed GroupId value, e.g. 200 in the example above. If we ensure that GroupId in all descendant objects of a root object has the same value in the table as the root object itself that would be trivial. The table would look like this:
Id ParentId GroupId
----------------------------------------------------------
1 NULL 200 root grandparent
2 1 200 non-root parent/child
3 2 200 child
4 2 200 child
5 NULL 300 root parent
6 5 300 child
7 5 300 child
And the filter would look like this:
WHERE GroupId = 200
However out of performance considerations, we would like to avoid if possible filling GroupId for the descendant objects, because as it must be clear from the above, GroupId for a descendant object is quite easily deducible via a stored procedure or UDF (just need to go up the tree until ParentId = NULL). The problem is, I don’t know how to achieve this in a merge replication filter: it would only allow WHERE conditions and joins. I’ve have not had much luck with joins for merge replication in general, but here we have more complex algorithm, because the number of tree levels can be different for every object. And merge replication would not allow using UDF…

Can someone who has had direct experience with this tell me exactly what happens when a conflict (updating same record on two nodes at the same time) occurs in a P2P replication topology? Does the Dist. Agent throw an error? More importantly does the replication set continue to replicate the articles after any error occurs?
Thanks,

2. Windows 2003 Server + SP1 (Subscriber For SQL 2000)
I am getting a replication error, I have taken this errors details from merge agent on publisher server.
Find enclosed replication error details in the microsoft document file format (.doc). The document is consist of three SQL Server snapshot rather three diffrent errors.
In the pictures you can find the red & white color cross (wrong sign) on replication monitor tab, I don't know why it is appearing. :confused:
Kindly, give me guidance to rectify this error & setup the marge replication between two SQL 2000 Servers.
