Hi,
I ahve attached the bmp doc that will show my screen snapshot.
My SQL server Agent service indicator is not showing green as like other server. I have started the serice and running fine. I don't have any problem running the job.
My curious is why that indicator is not showing up.
Thanks,
Ravi
when I run a package from a command window using dtexec, the job immediately says success.
DTExec: The package execution returned DTSER_SUCCESS (0).
Started: 3:37:41 PM
Finished: 3:37:43 PM
Elapsed: 2.719 seconds
However the Job is still in th agent and the status is executing. The implications of this are not good. Is this how the sql server agent job task is supposed to work by design.
Thanks,
Larry
Has anyone had a problem with Enterprise Manager, running on NT4/SP4 desktop, not showing/reporting the status of a specified SQL Server (6.5). I have a list of 10 that have been working fine (i.e. green lights shows up, drill down and see SQL Executive Green light, etc.). I now have 1 that does not report the status. It was working fine, but the only change that I remember was to create a new Scheduling login, which I did, and then I re-registered it to use a non-sa login to see what the look/feel would be. It looked like from that point onward, is where I lost the status capability. I have re-registered it as SA, but it seems to be stuck and won't give me back the green light. Yes, the server is up and I can drill down, but I don't even see the SQL Executive service and green light. I'm sure there is some registry setting that needs to be kicked? Any Ideas?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have log shipping every 15 minutes working between 2 servers, and while the secondary server reports everything ok (time since last copy, restore are all under 15 minutes), the primary server reports that the time since last backup is 7400+ minutes. I have verified that the LS backup job has no failures. How can I correct this false error state and get the primary server to start reporting actual statuses?
The LS monitor is on the secondary server.
It is SQL server 7. Scheduled jobs were running fine until the hard drive crasked. Replace the hard drive and restored the dabases. However, all the scheduled jobs cannot run. I created new jobs using database maintenance plan and it still doesn't work. the same error occurs when viewing the Job history.
sqlmaint.exe failed. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 22029). The step failed.
However, if I create a job by right click on the database and select backup database. This job runs fine.
What should I do to make jobs created by the database maintenance plan running again?
Thank you for your help.
If a job is currently running and I want to disable it so that it does not run as scheduled for the following night, will it disrupt the current process?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've tried finding an answer to this on this website but I don't see any. I'm running SQL Enterprise Manager v8.0 and have a job in the SQL server agent folder that won't run as scheduled nor will it run manually if I Right-Click and choose Start Job.
It's designed to run a DTS. I can run the DTS manually without errors but the job won't run it for me. I will try to provide as many details in this post as I can in hopes that someone who is more experienced at this can help me.
DTS DETAILS
The DTS is designed to transfer data from a table on one server and transfer it through a firewall to another server into a table on that server. Then delete the entries from the originating table. This works very well if I run it manually. The purpose of deleting entries from the web server is for security. Once the data in on the other side of the firewall it's safe.
The job however will not run either manually or from it's schedule. I've tried creating a new job and setting up a very simple schedule that runs daily every 2 minutes for example. I've played around with different times but no luck. So I will try and provide you with job details below:

I only have two SQL books to reference. This is a production fire to put out and I really need the help here as I am not a certified SQL guru.
I hope I have provided enough information here for someone to help. I'm happy to provide an email address for easier contact should you request it.
Thanks in advance for any assistance with this.
I get the following error:

The above path "I:...." is mapped on the server that SQL Server is running on.
This package runs with NO problems in MS Visual Studio.
HI ALL
I have created a stored procedure for a routine task to be performed periodically in my application. Say, i want to execute my stored procedure at 12:00 AM daily.
How can I add my stored procedure to the SQL server agent jobs??
Any Idea..
Hi. I was wondering if anyone has ever had a problem where nothing seems to be wrong with the server, and SQL Server Agent is up and running, but jobs fail. We had a job run at midnight, and it was the last successful run. Every job failed after that, with an error stating "Unable to retrieve steps for job..." There doesn't seem to be any reason for the problem. The jobs were kicked off manually and they all ran.
The only other error messages we could find were in the Application Event Viewer on the server. But the first error happened days ago and said this: "The description for Event ID ( 0 ) in Source ( .NET Runtime ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: Unable to open shim database version registry key - v2.0.50727.00000."
Since then, every few seconds this error occurred: "Windows cannot load extensible counter DLL MSSQLServerOLAPService, the first DWORD in data section is the Windows error code."
We turned off the performance monitor counters and that error stopped. But we still have no idea if that was the cause of the problem.
This isn't the first time we've had an issue with jobs failing because the steps couldn't be 'found', while SQL Server Agent was up and running.
Has anyone else had this problem?
Thanks!
Hi All,
I was working on some reports on SSRS. Now I cant view those reports coz I can not open report manager.
I noticed that SQLSERVER and SQL Server agent has stopped running in my local machince. But Other services are running properly (SSIS, SSRS, SSAS). When I go to SQL Configuration manager and try to run them, I get the following error massege.
" The request failled or the service did not respond in a timely fashion. Consult the event log or other applicable error logs for details. "
So now I can not connect database engine in my local machine through management studio. When I try to do that, I get the following error massage.
"An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (.Net SqlClient Data Provider)"
Also I can not access reportserver data base and reportservertemDB.
If I reinstall SQL Server again, what would happen? Would I still be able to use and view my old reports?
Please can anyone help me to get this worked again correctly?
Thanks
I get 2 errors when I run a job in sql server agent 2005 0xc0202009 and 0x80040E2. I cannot see why I am getting these errors, when I run the job with dtexec it is successful. Also when I run it in the debugger or run the executeable it is successful. But when I try to run it with the agent it fails. Any Ideas would be greatly appriciated.
thank you

Okay, i've got an ETL package which works flawless, we've created a scheduled job for it which also worked.
This ETL accesses a flat file located on a server on a different location in the same domain.
Last week we start a migration to a new network, the location where the flat file is stored has already moved to the new domain but the SQL server agent is still on the old domain.
There is a trust between the 2 domains, the network user from the old domain has been added on the server in the new domain where the flatfile is located.
If i run the etl package manually it works flawless, now if i run the etl using the SQL server agent it won't run anymore.
I get the following error:

Don't tell me its a problem related to the user that the SQL Server Agent is set to because its set to OldDomaindwh which is the same user i use to login on the server where i can manually run it without problems. The problem only occures when i run it using the SQL server agent which uses the same user to execute packages.
This is a very difficult problem i doubt anyone here will be able to crack this nut, but if they do i'll be very impressed because it would require a real smart network admin with SQL experiance to figure this one out...
Good luck
Hi, I was wondering if anybody would be able to help me and realise by looking round that is a reasonably common problem, but it€™s starting to drive me mad now!!
I€™ve got an SSIS package which takes data from an excel spreadsheet and using a stored procedure updates a table in a database, before moving the spreadsheet to another folder once it finishes. This works fine when in the Business Intelligence Design Studio, but when I try to set it up to run from the SQL Server Agent I get nothing but problems. I€™ve had a look around various forums and seen that many people have had this problem and I€™ve followed advice that other people have given, but try as I might nothing will work for me.
Currently I€™m trying to go down the package configurations route. I€™ve enabled the use of package configurations in the development studio and specified the configuration to pick up the destinations, usernames and passwords of everything that I have in the Connection Managers. I then go to the SQL agent and as a step tell it to execute the SSIS package using the package configuration xml file that it has created. Both the SSIS package and the package configuration file are saved and been asked to run from the sql server I will be using. I then go to run the package and it thinks about it for a minute or so before falling over. The history then says the below:
Message

The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "DestinationConnectionOLEDB" failed with error code 0xC0202009. ... The package execution fa... The step failed.
The DestinationConnectionOLEDB is pointing at a database on the same server as where I have the SSIS package and configuration file stored. I€™ve gone into the xml file and noticed that the passwords aren€™t saved so I€™ve added the passwords manually into the file after everytime it says username=sa but this hasn€™t made a difference. I€™ve also made sure that the package is saved to dontsaveencrypted.
I€™ve gone through the following article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918760
and tried to use things such as credentials but these haven€™t helped either.
I€™m really not sure why its giving me such hassle, I have the SSIS package on the sql server, I have its package configuration on the same server, I have the databases it wants to access on the same server, I€™m using the sa account wherever I can to make sure I have no access / rights issues, so I really have no idea why this won€™t work. All I can think of is that the sql2k5svc account that the sql agent job then runs under doesn€™t have authority to get to the database or the package configuration file, but I€™ve added that account to have full control on the database that it will accessing, but again no joy. How do I change it so that another account can be used to run this, one that I know has all the authority required to access everything it should?? And why would the login for sa be failing when it€™s the highest level account??
I€™ve read so many different articles on this problem and tried to follow so many different resolutions that I really don€™t know how any of this is meant to work anymore!!
Any help would be gratefully received!!
Thanks

Hi all
in my project, I need to access SQL job to finish something. But sometimes, the status of SQL Agent is not running, which needs me to check the status first. I am wonder are there some functions or some ways to check the status. If you know, please response me.
I appreciate your response !
Hi there
In SQL 2000, you can view the status of all (failed and running) jobs by going to Management > SQL Server Agent > Jobs.
How do you do the same thing in SQL2005?
Thanks
Hi,
I got the following message after I tried to start the log reader agent.
"Could not retrieve agent status. (No agent status information is available. (View Log Reader Agent
Status))"
I have tried to delete and recreat the replication, but I still got some message when I tried to start the log reader agent. I have tried to increase the QueryTimeout value as well, it still did not make any difference. I will be greatly appreciated if someone could give me a hint for what to do.
Thank you

Hi
I have setup a step in SQL Server Agent to run a SSIS package that I have created. However the step fails straight away and refers me to the history log, which doesnt seem to show what the problem is.
I've tried running the package manually through dtexec.exe and it runs through fine. Does anyone know what the problem could be?
Thanks
Hello,
I have created a package that runs without problem.
I run the package with the command dtexec /F "package_name.dtsx" > package_name.txt.
Then I run the same package from SQL Server Agent, everything is OK
Then, I tried to edit the command line to have the output file, but I got an error.
The command line is:
dtexec /F "package_name.dtsx" MAXCONCURRENT "-1" / CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING E > package_name.txt.
(MAXCONCURRENT "-1" / CHECKPOINTING OFF /REPORTING E are created by default)
How can I do?
Thank
When I give job Id in filter of this query this will give job status of "Success" but actually my job is currently in executing stage. I want to get all jobs that are currently in executing status.
Use msdb
go
select distinct j.Name as "Job Name", --j.job_id,
case j.enabled
when 1 then 'Enable'
when 0 then 'Disable'
[Code] ....
My package is connecting to an external data provider using an OLEDB driver . The package runs fine in debug mode.When i tried to run the same from SQL server agent it failed  to aquire the connection. The OLEDB provider does not contain too much of information , ( connection string, initial catalog, blank user name and password).The same package executes successfully if i run using dtexec in BAT file.But if i use the dtexec in sql server job step as operating system command and try to run, the job will fail reporting " can not aquire the connection".
View 2 Replies View Relatedhi,
among our server-agent jobs is one for the log-reader-agent and its run status is displayed as error though the log-reader is working correctly, replication is working fine.
it had hit an error some days ago after an unexpected shutdown - but it has been auto-restarted correctly on restart of the sql-server agent.
now - what can i do to get back to a sensible run-status report?
i have already deleted the job-history with the hope that this might help - but it didn't. should i just stop and restart the job again?
can i somehow delete the status in the jobhistory?
i would gladly appreciate any ideas because it's making me just mad to have a 'failed' job status on the monitor *g*
thank you,

I recently installed standalone version of SQL 2014 Standard on my work computer. I used Access before but I want to use a SQL server instead.
We have a shared drive that a file gets deposited every day at midnight. I want to be able to get this file and import it to the server (its basically a list of names).
Here what I have done so far:
I created the database
Created the file and successfully imported data into it using the Import Data feature.
I saved the SSIS package
Scheduled an Agent Job for this package to run at certain time,daily
At first the jobs would fail with a Access is Denied. I added a user under Credentials with my network account ( have admin rights on the work computer).Also added a Proxy for the Credential user I made.
Jobs fail with a “Cannot open data file” error. I tried changing things here and there, but I can’t get it to work.
Hello
I'm trying to run a task that executes a script file (cmd). When i run it with in bids with my own users (domain admin) it works. When i start a cmd prompt and try to run the cmd file directly from the network location where it is it works (with my own rights and with the sql server agent user).
Now when i try to run in from smss > agent jobs > job and run job it never completes. Im not getting any error message either it just keeps on running on the step ??? It seems like a rights issue, but the account running the sql server agent is able to execute the cmd file directly from the command prompt.
There are no errors in any error logs anywhere and no error is displayed...
Ps. Im running the job step as a integration service pacgake.
In SQL 2000, go to Management, than Jobs, you will see a list of all jobs and their running status. I would like to programmatically display the same on my web page. I can call sysjobs table to get the jobs and use sysjobschedules to determine whether it's been scheduled or not. Then use sysjobhistory to obtain their running history. But how and where do I get the Next Run Date information? Is this calculated or stored somewhere?Can anyone give me some help on how to work with sysjobs, sysjobschedules, and sysjobhistory tables? All I am trying to do is to build a web-based app that does the same thing as the Enterprise Manager is doing - create and schedule a job, and monitor the job status.Thanks a lot!Penn

Hello,
I have a very long running stored proc (import and transformation of 2-3 M. records). The duration of about 1h is not the problem.
My problem is that i want to send some notifications to the UI for showing a progress counter in the UI.
Is there any possibility to send send out a msg after certain steps (e.g. after positioning the cursor to next row) via an extended stored procedure which I could catch in my UI?
I would be very appreciative if somebody would send me a hint.

I have a stored procedure in SQL 2005 that purges data, and may take a few minutes to run. I'd like to report back to the client with status messages as the sp executes, using PRINT statements or something similar. I imagine something similar to BACKUP DATABASE, where it reports on percentage complete as the backup is executing.
I can't seem to find any information on how to do this. All posts on this subject state that it's not possible; that PRINT data is returned after the procedure executes. However it would seem possible since BACKUP DATABASE, for example, does this.
Is there any way to send status type messages to the client as the sp is executing??
Thanks.
Hi,
I have stumbled on a problem with running a large number of SSIS packages in parallel, using the €śdtexec€? command from inside an SQL Server job.
I€™ve described the environment, the goal and the problem below. Sorry if it€™s a bit too long, but I tried to be as clear as possible.
The environment:
Windows Server 2003 Enterprise x64 Edition, SQL Server 2005 32bit Enterprise Edition SP2.
The goal:
We have a large number of text files that we€™re loading into a staging area of a data warehouse (based on SQL Server 2k5, as said above).
We have one €śmain€? SSIS package that takes a list of files to load from an XML file, loops through that list and for each file in the list starts an SSIS package by using €śdtexec€? command. The command is started asynchronously by using system.diagnostics.process.start() method. This means that a large number of SSIS packages are started in parallel. These packages perform the actual loading (with BULK insert).
I have successfully run the loading process from the command prompt (using the dtexec command to start the main package) a number of times.
In order to move the loading to a production environment and schedule it, we have set up an SQL Server Agent job. We€™ve created a proxy user with the necessary rights (the same user that runs the job from command prompt), created an the SQL Agent job (there is one step of type €ścmdexec€? that runs the €śmain€? SSIS package with the €śdtexec€? command).
If the input XML file for the main package contains a small number of files (for example 10), the SQL Server Agent job works fine €“ the SSIS packages are started in parallel and they finish work successfully.
The problem:
When the number of the concurrently started SSIS packages gets too big, the packages start to fail. When a large number of SSIS package executions are already taking place, the new dtexec commands fail after 0 seconds of work with an empty error message.
Please bear in mind that the same loading still works perfectly from command prompt on the same server with the same user. It only fails when run from the SQL Agent Job.
I€™ve tried to understand the limit, when do the packages start to fail, and I believe that the threshold is 80 parallel executions (I understand that it might not be desirable to start so many SSIS packages at once, but I€™d like to do it despite this).
Additional information:
The dtexec utility provides an error message where the package variables are shown and the fact that the package ran 0 seconds, but the €śMessage€? is empty (€śMessage: €ś).
Turning the logging on in all the packages does not provide an error message either, just a lot of run-time information.
The try-catch block around the process.start() script in the main package€™s script task also does not reveal any errors.
I€™ve increased the €śmax worker threads€? number for the cmdexec subsystem in the msdb.dbo.syssubsystems table to a safely high number and restarted the SQL Server, but this had no effect either.
The request:
Can anyone give ideas what could be the cause of the problem?
If you have any ideas about how to further debug the problem, they are also very welcome.
Thanks in advance!

Hi! Im just starting to learn how to use an SQL express database. I used it over at my campus and it worked fine and now when I try running it on my machine it gave me this error :
"An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connection.(Provider : SQL Network Interfaces, error : 26 - Error locating server/ instance specified.)"
I know that by default SQL express doesnt not support remote connection but when i try to get the service status running, i got another error which is :
"The service did not respond to the start or control request in a timely fashion, you need administrator privileges to be able to start/stop this service. (SQLSAC)"
I am already logged on to the computer as an administrator but i still cant get the service to run! Pls help!
