SQL 2012 :: Error Occurred While Attempting To Drop Allocation Unit
May 4, 2015
Since a couple days, we are getting this message the errorlog of one of our SQL2012 server
LogEntry: Error [36, 17, 145] occurred while attempting to drop allocation unit ID 451879652360192 belonging to worktable with partition ID 451879652360192.
(version Microsoft SQL Server 2012 - 11.0.5058.0 (X64))
I am wondering what is the best way trying to troubleshoot this issues? I do not know from which of out database this is coming.
I have managed to get the Forms Authentication sample to work bu there is a hitch. I am running Report Server and Report Manager on the same(test) PC. I can logon to the Report Server without a problem but when I try logon from the UILogon.aspx page for Report Manager I receive the following error:
An error occurred while attempting to get the ReportServer Url. The RPC server is unavailable. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800706BA) An error occurred while attempting to get the ReportServer Url. The RPC server is unavailable. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x800706BA)An error occured while attempting to get the ReportServer Url. The RPC server is unavailable.(Exception from HRESULT: 0x800706BA).
I can register users which suggests that the page can connect to the database.
This is a question that has always intrigued me: what is the ideal File Allocation Unit Size for a disk holding only data or index pages on a server running SQL Server? It seems to me that 8,192 would be the ideal size as it would enable the system to gobble up an entire page in one go. Any ideas?
I´m having some trouble with a SSIS package that I´ve been using five months or so now.
I have a package scheduled to run every 2 minutes to load data into my SQL Server instance from our mobile computer systems. This data comes is read as flat file sources. My package runs 24/7.
My problem is that this package randomly returns "An error occurred while attempting to perform a type cast". This message is then returned during maybe 3 or 4 executions of the package. The error then vanishes into thin air, without me doing anything what so ever, and execution continues. The very same file that previously returned the errors is now processed without any problems.
I have no clue why this is, but I get the feeling that there has to be a reason for these random errors. To me, the type cast error seems to indicate problems with the data source (the flat file), but since the same file suddenly get processed without errors I have no clue where to start looking.
I've opened port 1433 in the Config Manager (error: The request failed or the service did not respond in a timely fashion.)
My Shared Memory Protocol is enabled, I've confirmed that the Server is allowed in Windows Firewall, I've configured the SQL Server to allow remote connections, I've started the SQL Browser with success....
I also receive the error message that (The MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS service on .... started and then stopped (Object Explorer)).
I uninstalled and reinstalled SQL Server Express 2012 and get the following failures:

I think this the the core of my issue. how to remedy this?
The following query returns a value of 0 for the unit percent when I do a count/subquery count. Is there a way to get the percent count using a subquery? Another section of the query using the sum() works.
Here is a test code snippet:
--Test Count/Count subquery
declare @Date datetime
set @date = '8/15/2007'
select -- count returns unit data Count(substring(m.PTNumber,3,3)) as PTCnt, -- count returns total for all units
(select Count(substring(m1.PTNumber,3,3))
from tblVGD1_Master m1
left join tblVGD1_ClassIII v1 on m1.SlotNum_ID = v1.SlotNum_ID
Where left(m1.PTNumber,2) = 'PT' and m1.Denom_ID <> 9
and v1.Act = 1 and m1.Active = 1 and v1.MnyPlyd <> 0
and not (v1.MnyPlyd = v1.MnyWon and v1.ActWin = 0)
and v1.[Date] between DateAdd(dd,-90,@Date) and @Date) as TotalCnt, -- attempting to calculate the percent by PTCnt/TotalCnt returns 0 (Count(substring(m.PTNumber,3,3)) /
(select Count(substring(m1.PTNumber,3,3))
from tblVGD1_Master m1
left join tblVGD1_ClassIII v1 on m1.SlotNum_ID = v1.SlotNum_ID
Where left(m1.PTNumber,2) = 'PT' and m1.Denom_ID <> 9
and v1.Act = 1 and m1.Active = 1 and v1.MnyPlyd <> 0

and v1.[Date] between DateAdd(dd,-90,@Date) and @Date)) as AUPct -- main select

A heavily-selected database will be in an inconsistent state for several hours during a batch process. For that time, a database snapshot is created and accessed instead. To allow constant client read access to the database, a database that only contains synonyms exists. Those synonyms point to the main database except during the batch process, at which time they point to the database snapshot.
To switch the synonyms, each synonym is dropped and then created pointing to the database snapshot (after its creation, of course). The drop/create occurs inside a transaction. Roughly, the SQL looks like this:
SET XACT_ABORT ON; BEGIN TRANSACTION; DROP SYNONYM [dbo].[some_proc]; CREATE SYNONYM [dbo].[some_proc] FOR [snapshot_db].[dbo].[some_proc]; GRANT EXECUTE, SELECT ON [dbo].[some_proc] TO public; COMMIT TRANSACTION;
When the batch update is completed, the process is reversed with "snapshot_db" replaced with "regular_db". The SQL snippet above is dynamic SQL. What I've pasted is the dynamic SQL that is executed as a single batch.
While this switch is happening, clients are accessing the procedures through the synonyms, potentially at a high request rate. Testing reveals that clients can get the error:
Error=-2147217900, Id=0, Meaning=IDispatch error #3092, Source=Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers, Description=[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Could not find stored procedure 'dbo.some_proc'.
This error only occurs once. If the same SPID retries its request and the transaction has not completed (for testing, a delay was added), then it blocks until the transaction completes.
Any way to prevent it besides a client-side retry?
SELECT m.lID FROM Message m inner join Message_Cc mCC on m.lID=mCC.lMessage and mCC.lOfficeRecipient = 200321 INNER JOIN UserRole d on mCC.szRecipient=d.szRoleName inner Join Map_UserAtOfficeToRole a2 on a2.lUserRole = d.lid AND d.nRecordStatus = 1

If I run this without the LEFT OUTER JOIN and the is null statement I get 648 rows. But If I include it I get 0 rows. I can't understand why I get 0 rows with the outer join.
During daily scheduled maintenance the following error occurs, which causes the maintenance job to fail. How can we fix? Thanks!

Hi all, I am running SQL 2000 Enterprise SP4 on Windows Server 2003 Standard SP2
I am getting the follow error message: Table error: Page (1:53888) allocated to object ID 546100986, index ID 0 was not seen. Page may be invalid or have incorrect object ID information in its header.
I check the hardware and didn't see any issues. I run the following command to check the actual page: dbcc traceon (3604) dbcc PAGE ([Statistics], 1, 53888, 1)
I am getting the error 'Incorrect syntax near the keyword set' with the following code snippet -
declare @dteTo Date set @dteTo = CONVERT(date, GETDATE())
My intention is to set the variable @dteTo to the current date (no time component). If I run a SELECT CONVERT(date, GETDATE()) command I do get what I want, it is just assigning the value to the variable that isn't working as intended.
I've just installed SQL Server Express and attempted to create my first database and received this error message :-(
Maybe this is a long shot, but can someone tell me what I've done wrong? Do I have a bad install or what?
Essentially I followed the steps below to create the database:
1. Started MS SQL Server Management studio Express 2. Right clicked on the Database folder 3. Selected "New Database..." 4. New Database panel displayed 5. Entered name of database - pip 6. Clicked "OK" 7. Receieved error dialog with followig message:

I really need to get this data into SQL server... why do I have to go through SQL 2000?
I have a log table with no indexes, triggers, or keys. During the course of development, I will clean out the entries by selecting all the rows (in Database Explorer) and hitting the delete key.
I have an File System Task that copies a file from one directory ot another. When I hard code the target directory (c:dirfile.txt) it works fine. When I change it to a virtual directory (\serverdirfile.txt) I get a security error:
[File System Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "Access to the path '\gracehbtest oS2TMM_Live_Title_000002.xml' is denied.".
I cannot execute a package by using Execute Package task. I supplied sa credentials to connection manager, and it shows the list of Packages on SQL Server but when running the task it says
Error 0xC0202009 while preparing to load the package. An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x%1!8.8X!.
We have 2 servers both running sqlexpress2005, both have service pack 1 installed, both have the same db (same tables etc.) both have the same users with the same passwords. Everything is identical.
What I want to do is move the db. I am attempting to do this by making a backup of the db and restoring it into the second machine. (I am not sure of a more practical way to do this without stopping the SQL server).
This is the problem, the backup process works fine, without error, but when restoring the copy to the other server ,it loses the dbowner property and all default users when attempting to connect recieve a 4064 error even though all the password for users are there. Very strange.
I tried to restore the copy to to the same server that I made the copy and everything works, this only happens when attempting to restore the copy on another machine.
Do you know if this is a possible bug? I have tried to do further test on 4 different machines now and the same happens.
The objective is to be able to send the data from sqlexpress server to another by making a backup and without the need t stop the sql server. Any suggestion would be appreciated.

In SQL Server 2005, via the GUI, I wish to backup a database to an additional disk file (there is already an existing backup disk file for this database), so that I can have more than one backup. I've added the new disk file name, highlighted it, and clicked OK.
I get an immediate error (see below). Note, the 2nd error message is specifying the existing backup disk file, not the new one I'm attempting to create.
"Backup failed for Server 'WCS-DEV-TPA'. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Smo)"

Does anyone know what causes this and how to correct it?
We have reports deployed in the Report Server. While connecting from client, we are getting the error "An internal error occurred on the report server. See the error log for more details. rsInternal Error)"
Then we went to Report Server, Reporting Service and SQL Server service are all are running fine.
Important thing is some time the reports are working fine, sometimes i am receiving this error. Please help.
We predict whether the services are automatically restarted or transaction logs exceeding the limit or any other parameters to set to avaoid this error?
I'm trying to use an XML Task to do a simple XSLT operation, but it fails with this error message:
[XML Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "There are multiple root elements. Line 5, position 2.".
The source XML file validates fine and I've successfully used it as the XML Source in a data flow task to load some SQL Server tables. It has very few line breaks, so the first 5 lines are pretty long: almost 4000 characters, including 34 start-tags, 19 end-tags, and 2 empty element tags. Here's the very beginning of it:

There is only 1 ESDU root element and only 1 package element.
Of course, the XSLT stylesheet is also an XML document in its own right. I specify it directly in the XML Task:
I am trying to save user data to a sql table but keep getting the following error; Unable to cast object of type 'System.Boolean' to type 'System.Data.SqlClient.SqlParameter'.

I'm trying to install Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition (x86) on my laptop when a setup failure message would show up at the end. When I clicked for more details it has the followings:

Please let me know what do I need to install the piece correctly, thanks!
I successfully installed SQL Server 2005 SP1 on one PC. When I attempt to install it on a second PC, however, I get the following obscure error:
Unexpected Error Occurred The following unexpected error occurred:
That's right, there's nothing else listed, other an OK button. D'oh! When I press the OK button, the following error report dialog box appears:
Hotfix.exe A recently applied update, NULL, failed to install.
There are no pending updates that I'm aware of, as I just booted the PC. I sent the error report.
I notice on this particular PC that the SP1 install EXE is expanding/writing to an external SCSI drive; would that make a difference? I don't see a way to specify a different (i.e., internal ATA drive).

The error pasted above arose when I attempted to create a XML source based on a Crystal Reports XI report exported as XML. Is there any special modification to make to the XML exported from Crystal to allow SSIS to read it properly?
I am running the following script to attempt a restore of a differential backup:
RESTORE DATABASE AdventureWorks FROM DISK='C:SQL2005_BackupsAutoBackupsAdventureWorks.bak' WITH NORECOVERY GO RESTORE DATABASE AdventureWorks FROM DISK='C:SQL2005_BackupsAutoBackupsAdventureWorksDiff.bak' WITH RECOVERY GO
I thought this was the way to do it. It does restore the full backup, but on the attempt to restore the differential backup, I get the following error:
Msg 3136, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
This differential backup cannot be restored because the database has not been restored to the correct earlier state.
Msg 3013, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally.
Does anyone know what this means? Do I have to use "with recovery" on the first restore? (The sample I took this from used "with norecovery")
The original backups were done with SQL Agent scheduled jobs. The script for the full backup is:
BACKUP DATABASE AdventureWorks TO DISK='C:SQL2005_BackupsAutoBackupsAdventureWorks.bak'
The script for the differential backup is:
BACKUP DATABASE AdventureWorks TO DISK='C:SQL2005_BackupsAutoBackupsAdventureWorksDiff.bak' WITH DIFFERENTIAL, INIT
All I can say is, it's a good thing I am testing this out with non-critical data, because I obviously don't know what I am doing. (Sorry, I'm primarily a programmer, not a DBA) Can anyone help?
I'm unable to use SSIS packages after installing SQL Server 2005.

I'm working through the SQL2005 Reporting Services Tutorial. When I try to deploy, I get the error "Connection could not be made to the report server." It appears that I do not have permissions to get to localhost/reportserver (I get a permissions error when just trying to get there directly from "run"). In another forum I saw several people having the same issue. One contributor said that the problem was solved for him by uninstalling SQL2005 and reinstalling using the local system account rather than a windows domain account. I tried that, but am getting the same error. Anyone know how to fix this?
