Hi there
Anybody know how to increase the MS SQL server buffer size?
I get an error when trying so insert some pictures as OLE objects. When
transfering to the server i get an error, that the buffer sizes needs to
be increased.

I encountered the following error while attempting to preview an RDL report I was developing in VS2010 using SSDT:"The size necessary to buffer the XML content exceeded the buffer quota"

So while developing a new report i used to copy that header section to the new report with same dataset names (without any change) , but while rendering the report it is throwing error " The size necessary to buffer the XML content exceeded the buffer quota".

I've been searching this site and the Web for info on an error message I get when importing from Access 2003 into SQL Server 2000.
'Data for Source Column 3('Col3') is too large for the specified buffer size'
A memo field in Access is larger than 255.
I have followed advice about putting the field to the first column. This doesn't work - the error just returns the new column number. In fact, I've tried just importing the first column - no good.
I am wary about making Registry changes as comments on the Web say this doesn't work either.
Does anybody have the solution for this.

Error: "The specified buffer size is not valid. [buffer size specified = 0]
Hello, im very new to SQL 2005 everywhere but looked like it could do the job for what i needed:
Im working on a c# (.net 2.0) project and loaded data
(one column from one table, 800 rows, text, no greater than 80characters in length)
from an access db into a data set, then lnserted the data in SQLce, great it works fab!
but as soon as I select another field(text, <=10) from the access db, and try to insert it into sql i get the error...
what have i missed???
Is it possible to change the command buffer size??
I need to export data on demand to an excel spreadsheet via a stored procedure. The only way I know how to do this is through a bulk copy command; but my query is much to big for the buffer....
Thanks!!!
Hi,
I'd like to replicate an SQL Server Database to an SDF file. For Simplicity I want to use the SQL Server 2005 Management Console. The Console reports that the maximum buffer size were to small. In the comment (c# code) I can see it is set to 512. How can I increase the value in the replication assistant?

SQLSERVER 2005 keeps throwing assertation error and generating crashdumps.
I want to isolate the cause, however, the query is too long (>2kb) to fit in a crash log.
Is it possible to increase the size allocated to showing the query in the crash dump, or get the full text of that query causing the crash?
I have a virtual server (VMware ESX) with 64GB RAM running a single instance of SQL 2012 SP1. The max memory config is set to 59392 (58GB).
The Page Life Expectancy for this server has been averaging well under 10 mins for the last few days, according to our monitoring.
I have been checking the amount of data in the buffer cache periodically during the day with the below query, which seems to show that there is never more than about 10GB of data at any one time, frequently dropping below 5GB:
SELECT COUNT(*) AS BufferPages,
CONVERT(decimal(10, 2), COUNT(*) / 128.0) AS BufferMB
FROM sys.dm_os_buffer_descriptorsWhy would the amount of cached data be so low (and cause so much churn)?
I am aware that other things will require some of that memory (plan cache etc.) but with Max Mem of 58GB, I would expect there to be a much higher amount of actual cached data at any one time. I did the same checks on another VM with the same amount of RAM/Max Mem setting, and there was 50GB of data in the cache, with PLE measured in hours.
Hi,
I have a problem to import xls file to sql table, using MS SQL 2000 server.
Actual main problem associated with it is xls file contain one colum having large amount of text which length is approximate 1500 characters.
I am trying to resolve it through like save xls to csv or text file then import but it also can not copy whole text of that column, like any column in xls having 995 characters then text or csv file contain 560 characater. So, it is also wrong.
thanks in advance, if any try to resolve
Hi,
I’m attempting to use DTS to import data from a Memo field in MS Access (Jet 4.0 OLE DB Provider) into a SQL Server nvarchar(4000) field. Unfortunately, I’m getting the following error message:
Error at Source for Row number 30. Errors encountered so far in this task: 1.
Data for source column 2 (‘Html’) is too large for the specified buffer size.
I also get this error message when attempting to import the same data from Excel.
Per the MS Knowledgebase article located at http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=281517, I changed the registry property indicated to 0. This modification did not help.
Per suggestions in other SQL Server forums, I moved the offending row from row number 30 to row number 1. This change only resulted in the same error message, but with the row number indicated as “Row number 1�. (Incidentally, the data in this field is greater than 255 characters in every row, so the cause described in the Knowledgebase article doesn’t seem to be my problem).
You might also like to know that the data in the Access table was exported into this table from a SQL Server nvarchar(4000) field.
Does anybody know what might trigger this error message other than the data being less than 255 characters in the first eight rows (as described in the KB article)?
I’ve hit a brick wall, so I’d appreciate any insight.Thanks in advance!
How do i check the size of the datacache allocated from the buffer pool by sql server?

Hi
I have a master package that executes a series of sub packages run from a SQL Agent job. One of those sub packages has been stable for a week, running at least once per day, but it just failed despite having been run once already today with the same set of input data.
There were a series of errors showing in the event log for the Execute Package Task starting with "Buffer Type 15 had a size of 0 bytes.", then "The buffer manager failed to create a new buffer type.", then "The Data Flow task cannot register a buffer type. The type had 32 columns and was for execution tree 3.", then "The layout failed validation." and finally "Error 0xC0012050 while loading package file "C:[Package].dtsx". Package failed validation from the ExecutePackage task. The package cannot run.".
SQLIS.com reports the constant for the error code as DTS_E_REMOTEPACKAGEVALIDATION ( http://wiki.sqlis.com/default.aspx/SQLISWiki/0xC0012050.html ).
I then ran the package on my dev machine in BIDS and it worked fine, so I re-ran the job on the server and this time that package executed ok, but another one fell over but did not put anything in the event log.
Does any one have any idea what happened?
TIA . . . Ed
Good day everyone,
I'm experiencing a completely random warning from any given row count component within any given data flow task. It occurs sporadically. Whilst distracting, I don't see any adverse effects to the data after the packages complete. Can someone weigh in on this warning and let me know if it is indeed benign or what I maybe able to do to fix it?
Here's the warning:
"A call to the ProcessInput method for input 75997 on component "CNT Rows sent for STG table" (75995) unexpectedly kept a reference to the buffer it was passed. The refcount on that buffer was 4 before the call, and 5 after the call returned."
Thanks,

The scenario is as follows: I have a source with many rows. Each row has a column called max_qty_value. I need to perform a calculation using another column called qty. This calculation is something similar to dividing qty/(ceiling) max_qty_value. Once I have that number I need to write an additional duplicate row for each value from the prior calculation performed. For example, 15/4 = 4. I need to write 4 rows to the same target table as in line information for a purchase order.
The multicast transform appears to only support fixed and/or predetermined outputs. How do I design this logic in SSIS to write out dynamic number of rows to a target table.
Any ideas would be greatly appreciated.
thanks

I am trying to resize a database initial log file from 500M to 2M. I€™m using€?
ALTER DATABASE <DBNAME> MODIFY FILE ( NAME = <DBLOGFILENAME, SIZE = 2 ) "
And I'm getting "MODIFY FILE failed. Specified size is less than current size." I tried going into the database properties and setting the log file to 2M, but it doesn€™t keep the changes.
Any help with this process?
I installed sql 2005 a while back. Then I recently found out my file system was fat32 (I don't understand why the hardware people did this...) and I had to convert to NTFS. Naturally the sql service no longer worked so I uninstalled inorder to reinstall now I can't reinstall it I keep getting this message

I'll try to post the full log in a new post.
Hi folks,Can anyone enlighten me here? I'm trying to use a SPROC which, when supplied with an int, looks up the table and returns certain columns from it.

Using C#, SQL Server 2005, ASP.NET 2, in a web app, I've tried removing the size from parameters of type NCHAR, NVARCHAR, and VARCHAR. I'd rather just send a string and let the size of the parameter in the SP truncate any extra chars if need be. I began getting the error below, and eventually realized it happened only with output parameters, as in the code snippet below.String[3]: the Size property has an invalid size of 0. par = new SqlParameter("@BusinessEntity", SqlDbType.NVarChar); par.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output; cmd.Parameters.Add(par); cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();What's the logic behind this? Is there any way around it other than either finding out what the size should be, or assigning a size larger than would ever be needed? ThanksMike Thomas

Just wanted to know what is a general rule of thumb when determining log file space against a database's data file.We allow our data file for our database to grow 10%, unlimited. We do not allow our log file to autogrow due to a specific and poorly written process (which we are in a three month process of remove) that can balloon the log file size.Should it be 10% of the Data file, i.e. if the Date file size is 800MB the log file should be 8MB?I realize there are a myraid of factors that go against file size but a general starting point would be nice.ThanksJeff--Message posted via http://www.sqlmonster.com

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm having a problem importing a text file into a SQL db using DTS. I have to transform some of the data that is being imported so I think Bulk import is out of the question.
Everything works fine until a hit a row that contains more than 255 characters in one cell. Once it encounters that row, it fires this error:
"Error at source for row number 9.Errors encountered so far in this task :1
General Error: -2147217887(80040E21)

I found a entry in the MS KnowledgeBase that addresses the symptom but the workaround doesn't fix it:

Help, have recently upgraded from 6.5 to 7.0 and have come across a problem with performance. The problem appears to relate to the buffer cache being flushed, the buffer cache hit ratio drops from 98% to 0% in a matter of a second. It then very slowly grows, then is flushed again, then increase slowly upto 30%.
Does any one have any ideas as to what would flush the buffer cache?
Any comments would be much appreciated - cheers
Hi,
We upgraded our applications from 7.0 server to win 2000, sql server 2000 sp2 machine.
While running the same batch job that we used to run on the old NT server without any problem, job failed with the following message
'Msg 845, Sev 17: Time-out occurred while waiting for buffer latch type 3 for page (1:8200), database ID 2. [SQLSTATE 42000]'.
Can someone tell me what's going on? This new server is supposed to be much more powerful than the old server.
What value should I monitor for the new server to prevent this timeout?

Hi all,
I have a strange problem that I need to solve as soon as possible.
I have created two CLR UDTs called point and point_list. Each record of a point_list consists of a list of points. I created a CLR stored procedure which reads some raw data and updates the point_list records.
When I execute the stored procedure the following error appears :
System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlTypeException: The buffer is insufficient. Read or write operation failed.
System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlTypeException:
at System.Data.SqlTypes.SqlBytes.Write(Int64 offset, Byte[] buffer, Int32 offsetInBuffer, Int32 count)
at System.Data.SqlTypes.StreamOnSqlBytes.Write(Byte[] buffer, Int32 offset, Int32 count)
at System.IO.BinaryWriter.Write(Char ch) etc ...
Does anybody know what should I do ?
Thanks!
I am trying to set a decimal value to the pipelinecolumn buffer, but it doesnt get set, and the value is NULL.

int a;
a_cmp tst = new a_cmp();
a= tst.a_crc32(inputbufferstream); this function returns a integer value
buffer.SetDecimal(colInfo.bufferColumnIndex, Convert.ToDecimal(a));

Hi
A script component receives some input. But I just can't get at the first row??
Basically, if i use the NextRow method in the in the Do statement, then it advances the row collection to the second row before it gets into the code inside the loop?? BUT, if I use the EndOfRowset property to define my loop then I get an error:
[PipelineBuffer has encountered an invalid row index value]
I'm guessing this means...I have to call NextRow before i access the data in the collection? But thats retarted because then I miss the first row?? what? What am I missing??
This is the code which works but I miss the first row:
Public Overrides Sub Input0_ProcessInputRow(ByVal Row As Input0Buffer)
Dim strConcept As String
Do While Row.NextRow()
strConcept = Row.concept
updateDb(strConcept)
Loop
End Sub
This is the code which throws the invalid row index error:
Public Overrides Sub Input0_ProcessInputRow(ByVal Row As Input0Buffer)
Dim strConcept As String
Do While Not Row.EndOfRowSet()
strConcept = Row.concept
updateDb(strConcept)
Row.NextRow()
Loop
End Sub
I've put some try catches in there an the error happens on the line which calls Row.concept....?
Can anyone help, it must be something I'm messing up
thanks!!
