I know this is a novice question but I have a database that is 12 GB and the transaction log is 6GB and I am concerned about disk space. Is this a normal size for a transaction log and how do I maintain the log so that it stays what I may deem reasonable. I know that the database grows automatically but can I purge the log or have the log purge itself and start over automatically?
Thanks

Hi All
I'm getting this when executing the code below. Going from W2K/SQL2k SP4 to XP/SQL2k SP4 over a dial-up link.
If I take away the begin tran and commit it works, but of course, if one statement fails I want a rollback. I'm executing this from a Delphi app, but I get the same from Qry Analyser.
I've tried both with and without the Set XACT . . ., and also tried with Set Implicit_Transactions off.
set XACT_ABORT ON
Begin distributed Tran

I have a design a SSIS Package for ETL Process. In my package i have to read the data from the tables and then insert into the another table of same structure.
for reading the data i have write the Dynamic TSQL based on some condition and based on that it is using 25 different function to populate the data into different 25 column. Tsql returning correct data and is working fine in Enterprise manager. But in my SSIS package it show me time out ERROR.
I have increase and decrease the time to catch the error but it is still there i have tried to set 0 for commandout Properties.
if i'm using the 0 for commandtime out then i'm getting the Distributed transaction completed. Either enlist this session in a new transaction or the NULL transaction.

I want to list out the pending transaction for transaction replication by publication.
Help needed.
I'm receiving the below error when trying to implement Execute SQL Task.
"The ROLLBACK TRANSACTION request has no corresponding BEGIN TRANSACTION." This error also happens on COMMIT as well and there is a preceding Execute SQL Task with BEGIN TRANSACTION tranname WITH MARK 'tran'
I know I can change the transaction option property from "supported" to "required" however I want to mark the transaction. I was copying the way Import/Export Wizard does it however I'm unable to figure out why it works and why mine doesn't work.
Anyone know of the reason?
I created a Calculated measure in cube something like this : ([TransType].[TransTypeHierarchy].[TransTypeCategoryParent].&[SPEND],[Measures].[Transaction Amount]). To get only spend transactions. Now, I want to slice this measure with same hierarchy to find the amount distribution across different transaction types under spend transaction. But this query behaving like the measure doesn't have relation with measure.
you can think this as below query:
WITH
MEMBER SPEND AS ([TransType].[TransTypeHierarchy].[TransTypeCategoryParent].&[SPEND],[Measures].[Transaction Amount])
SELECT NON EMPTY {SPEND} ON 0
,NON EMPTY ([TransType].[TransTypeHierarchy].[TransTypeCategoryParent]) ON 1
FROM [CUBE]
Hi
How do I make use of begin transaction and commit transaction in SSIS.
As am not able to commit changes due to certain update commands I want to explicitly write begin and commit statements. but when i make use of begin and commit in OLEDB commnad stage it throws an error as follows:
Hresult:0x80004005
descriptionyntax error or access violation.
its definately not an syntax error as i executed it in sql server. also when i use it in execute sql task out side the dataflow container it doesnt throw any error but still this task doesnt serve my purpose of saving/ commiting update chanages in the database.
Thanks,
Prashant

Hi,
I am having some problem with SSIS transaction. Eventhought I tried to imitate the concept that Jamie presented at http://www.sqlservercentral.com/columnists/jthomson/transactionsinsqlserver2005integrationservices.asp
. My workflow is as followed
*********************************
For Each ADO.Record in Oracle (transaction=not supported)
If (Certain_Field_Value = 'A')
Lookup Data in SQL DB with values from Oracle (transaction=not supported)
DO Sequence A (Start a Transaction , transaction=required)
INSERT/UPDATE some records in SQLDB(transaction=supported)
Finish Sequence A ( transaction should stop here)
UPDATE Oracle DB ( Execute SQLTask, transaction=not supported)
If (Certain_Field_Value = 'B')
Lookup Data in SQL DB with values from Oracle (transaction=not supported)
DO Sequence B (Start a Transaction , transaction = required)
INSERT/UPDATE some records in SQLDB (transaction=supported)
Finish Sequence A ( transaction should stop here)
UPDATE Oracle DB ( Execute SQLTask, transaction=not supported)
If (Certain_Field_Value = 'C')
------------
------------
End ForEach Loop
*************************************
My requirements are that I want separate transaction for each Sequence A, B, C, etc... If Sequence A transaction fails, the other should still be continuing with another transaction.
But I am getting an error regarding the OLEDB Error in next Task (e.g in Certain_Field_Value = 'B') "Lookup Data in SQL DB with values from Oracle ", the error message is ".......Distributed transaction completed. Either enlist this session in a new transaction or the NULL transaction. ".
What is it that I am doing wrong?

Hi all,
In my ASP application, I've been using this code:
----------------------------------------------
dim conn, connectionstring
connectionstring= "Provider=SQLOLEDB.1; Data Source = blahblah; Initial Catalog = abc; User Id = osss; Password=xxx"
set conn = server.CreateObject("adodb.connection")
conn.open connectionstring
----------------------------------------------
It's just basically to set up the connection to the SQL server, it works on my other pages, but on a few pages, the last line (conn.open connectionstring) triggers this error:
"Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '8004d00a'
New transaction cannot enlist in the specified transaction coordinator. "
I've never encountered this error before and I couldn't think of any solution... please help!!!
Thanks so much,

I had thought that if any statement failed within a BEING TRANS .. COMMIT TRANS block, then all the statements would be rolled back. But I am seeing different behavior (SQL Server 2000 8.00.2039)
For instance, run these statements to set up a test:
--DROP TABLE testTable1
--DROP TABLE testTable2
CREATE TABLE testTable1 (f1 varchar(1))
CREATE TABLE testTable2 (f1 varchar(1))
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX idx_tmptmp ON testTable1 (f1)
insert into testTable1(f1) values ('a')
So table testTable1 has a unique index on it..
Now try to run these statements:
--DELETE FROM testTable2
BEGIN TRANSACTION
insert into testTable1(f1) values ('a')
insert into testTable2(f1) values ('a')
COMMIT TRANSACTION
SELECT * FROM testTable2
..the first insert fails on the unique index.. but the second insert succeeds. Shouldn't the second insert roll back? How can I make two operations atomic?

Hello everyone,This is more of an architectural question about SQL Server. Cansomeone please explain why when I perform a query such as the onebelow that updates a table using begin and end transaction I am unableto programmatically truncate the transaction log. The only way I havefound to truncate the transaction log is to stop and start the SQLServer Service. Does this transaction use the tempdb? Is that why Iam unable to truncate the transaction log? Is there a better way todo this?Begin trans T1Update sometableSet random_row = 'blah'End trans T1Thanks!

Hi There
I have a large database in full recovery model (9.0.3152).
I have s stored procedure, that generates a HUGE transaction log, i have optimized the stored proc as much as i can, i have also broken it up into smaller transactions that i commit more frequently and do transaction log backups more frequently.
However i cannot make a significant dent into the transaction log size.
Is there anyway / syntax to ensure that a transaction or statement is not logged to the transaction log ?
I will never want to have this transaction or commands present if i do a restore.
Is this possible ?
Thanx
I have a stored procedure 'ChangeUser' in which there is a call to another stored procedure 'LogChange'. The transaction is started in 'ChangeUser'. and the last statement in the transaction is 'EXEC LogChange @p1, @p2'. My questions is if it would be correct to check in 'LogChange' the following about this transaction: 'IF @@trancount >0 BEGIN Rollback tran' END Else BEGIN Commit END.
Any help on this would be appreciated.

In my production Datbase transaction log is very big around 25.00GB. I ran the the following commands for shrinking, even through it is not shrinking.
1.Dump tran Databasename with no_log
2. Dbcc Shrinkfile(2)
3.Dbcc Shrinkdatabase(databaseNAme)
4.Detach the databse and attach the database.
After running all these commands also Log size not reduced.
Data file is only 5.0GB and log file is 25.00GB.Please anybody help me.
Hi all,
I have looked at a number of posts about shrinking the transaction log, but despite a number of attempts, I have had no joy.
Our transaction log has been left to grow, and is now 12gb (yup, gb not mb) and desperately needs shrinking.
It is currently only using less than 200mb of this space, but I cannot get it to free the space and use a lot less. I have set "truncate on checkpoint" to true and have then checkpointed and tried to truncate. I have also shrank the files manually, but nothing seems to work.
any suggestions??
Thanks in advance,
Mike

I am trying to create a backup for the transaction logs on one
of the databases I support in SQL Server2000. The problem is in EM, the only
options it gives me are a Full DB Backup or a Differential DB
Backup. I have other DB's with TL backup's, why can't I on this
particular one? Truncate log on checkpoint option not found in properties.
Thanks
