Scheduled Tasks Not Running?????
Nov 2, 1998
Hey how are you.
I'm going crazy with EM's Sheduled Tasks.
I've setup couple of backups and weekly maintenance plans from EM.
After couple of days I viewed sheduled tasks from EM toolbar
and found that all the tasks have not executed as I have scheduled.
the task history does not show any history at all.
Clicking refresh does not do any good either.
However if i right click on the database and choose restore i see all the backups
that i have scheduled.
Is this a bug?
Can someone tell me what's wrong???
THANKS IN ADVANCE

If I have 2 scheduled tasks set for the same time (perhaps accidentally), will the
SQL Executive start 1 and queue the other one until the first is complete and
then run the 2nd task? Or will they both be started simultaneously?
Thanks!

I have been running the following production job successfully for a long time.
It now fails, and the Task History Last Error Message displays 'No Message'.
The log file ( C:MSSQLLOGMaint_TombV50.txt) shows it ran successfully,
with a Return Code 0.
SQLMAINT.EXE -D TombV50 -RebldIdx 10
-CkDB -CkAl -CkTxtAl -CkCat
-UpdSts -Rpt C:MSSQLLOGMaint_TombV50.txt
It looks like SQL Executive burps for some reason.
Any ideas, comments, suggestions?
Thanks,
sb

To all,
If I have a scheduled tasks that is owned by 'sa', how can I assign permissions to allow another user, even the database dbo, to register the SQL server and view the scheduled tasks?
Thanks in Advance,

Is it possible to schedule tasks in SQL Express, for example a database backup, or to periodically execute a stored procedure?

Hi,
I am using Windows 2000 and created around 15 scheduled tasks. My scheduled tasks supposed to run every morning. I have to set password to first scheduled tasks every morning; otherwise none of the scheduled tasks works. As soon as i put password in the scheduled tasks, other tasks work fine.
Any ideas how to save password to schedule task?
Thanks in advance..

Hello:
1) Is there a way to call a second task 'upon completion' of the first one. Or would I need to place the code of the second task in one task?
(This is v6.5) I guess the main purpose is to avoid conflict & see if one fails, the other may succeed, etc. I generally like to keep diff tasks separate, but one is dependent upon the completion of the other.
2) I want to restore a db, upon completion of the backup of another db. They are on separate servers, but i know i can use remote sp's.
Any advice, help, code, scripts, etc, would be appreciated. Thank you.

Apologies if this has already been covered, but I can't find any information.
What is the easiest way to move a batch of scheduled tasks from one server/network to another? Can you script them up somehow and then reapply the script to the new location?
Any advice would be much appreciated.

I'm running SQL Server 6.5 and have schedules a number of tasks to run overnight. This has generally been successful; even when the tasks have failed, it's been because of a lack of data in a feeder database system.
My problem is that when I try to run the tasks manually, I get a message saying that they can't be run because SQL Executive is not running on the server. Now, this ain't true. The little gizmos show green in the server manager, and if I right click on SQL Executive, 'Start' is disabled and 'Stop' is enabled.
Am I missing something here? Does anyone have any clues or suggestions?
Thanks.

We are running SQL 6.5 sp5a. There have been a number of instances recently where some scheduled tasks don't complete. I can't even cancel them. The only way to stop them is to stop and start the Executive service.
Anyone come across this before and know what the problem is?

Hi,
All the maintanance jobs scheduled for weekend are still running after 66 hours.
1. transaction log backup
2. integrity check
3. complete backup
4. optimization job
I stopped the jobs from scheduled task lists, I can still see them running through current activity window.
Is it ok to kill them? Or how I can stop them?
Thanks,

Is anyone aware of a way of adding scheduled tasks to MSDE?
Obviously in SQL Server you'd use the Enterprise Manager to do that, but I don't believe it is possible to get Enterprise Manager seperately from SQL Server.
Any ideas on that would be great

What are peoples opinions on using SSIS as a "central repository" and replacement for all scheduled tasks. Example, we have a bunch of servers which we have installed services which we have written. Currently we have scheduled tasks on each machine to stop and start the services. One of my collegues is using SSIS to run a system which runs tasks on multiple machines by remotely running programs on other machines via scheduled tasks and then collects the data and puts it into a database.
He's now pitching the idea that we remove the scheduled tasks on each machine and start and stop our services via SSIS so that it's centralized. In addition, we can also check for holidays in our database before starting services. Since it doesn't seem like SSIS was meant for this type of use, I'm weary of using the tool to do something it wasn't intended for.
Any opinions? I'm also worried that the learnnig curve for everyone is going to be too high.

I recently changed the SA password on my SQL Server 6.5 installation and discovered that this had caused the Scheduled CmdExec Tasks (defined in SQL Executive) to fail with:
"Process Exit Code 1. Microsoft (R) SQLMaint Utility, Version 6.50.240 Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation, 1995 - 1996 [Microsoft SQL-DMO] Error 4002: [SQL Server] Login failed"
Changing the password back to the original resolves the problem, but is a less than satisfactory solution.
Any advice on how I can change the SA password and allow CmdExec tasks to continue running would be gratefully appreciated.

Good morning,
I have a strange problem with a scheduled task failing with the following:
"Unable to send completion notification email to operator with email name '' for task 2780, 'Scheduled Update'"
This job is the same across several servers and the job runs on the other servers. This is a bit frustrating... I cannot seem to find the difference that is causing the problem.
The funny thing is that I am not using SQLMail or anything to notify anyone regardless if the job succeeds or fails.
Any pointers?
Thanks much,
Don

Hi, all here,
Would please any expert here give me any guidance about what Data Mining tasks can be automated and scheduled via Integration Services Packages? Also, If we automated the tasks, can we also automatically save the results of the tasks somewhere? Like if we automate assessing the accuracy of a mining model, then we wanna know the mining model accuracy later, therefore, we need to save all these results from the automated actions. Is it possible to realize this?
Thanks a lot in advance for any guidance and help for this.
With best regards,
Yours sincerely,

Hi,
In previous versions of SQL Server you were able to execute single steps within a DTS package. It doesn't seemt to be possible in visual studio. Does anybody know otherwise?
Thanks

I created a DTS Local Package that should run on a specified time (ex. 9:00 AM) using EnterPrise Manager on my PC.
It is basically copying a file from our AS400 to the SQL server. It works fine if you execute it but the scheduler does not run at the specified time.
Am I missing anything here?

Hi
I have a SQL Server 2000 instance running on a Windows Server 2003 box with 4 processors. SQL Server is configured to use all 4 processors, and use all available processors for parallelism.
I have created a simple DTS package which has 2 "execute external process" tasks with no precedence constraints between them. There are no connections required or defined for the two tasks (sequential
processing is forced on tasks sharing connections). The DTS package
properties have the "limit the number of tasks to execute in parallel"
set to 4.
However, despite the above configuration, the two steps are never executed in parallel, but always sequentially.
Does anyone have any ideas as to why these tasks are not being executed in parallel?
Any suggestions welcome.
Thanks.

I have several sequence containers in one package that fire off execute package tasks. I would like each of the sequence containers to start at the same time when the job starts running. However when I set them up to do that, i get an error that the variable cannot be read because it is locked. I have the variables setup as readonly so not sure why they are being locked. When I run the package and have each sequence container fire off after the previous one ends it runs fine.
Any ideas on how to get around this?
Thanks!

We have DTS Packages that are scheduled to run nightly and show up in EM under JOBS under SQL Server Agent. A password got changed and some of the nightly jobs blew up.
Went into the Packages and entered the new password and successfully executed the packages BUT when I go back to jobs under the SQL Server Agent, the jobs STILL will not run - they fail with a login failure - as if i never fixed the DTS package. HELP

I have created a DTS package to read data from a SQL Server table and copy it to an Excel file on one sheet. I have tested the DTS package manually and it runs. I scheduled the package but it keeps failing giving the following error message. The path to the Excel file is valid and the SQL server is connected to the server where the Excel file resides.

I'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:
JOB DETAILS
Name: TransferData
Enabled, Target = Local Server
Category: Uncategorized Local
Description: Execute package: TransferData
STEPS
ID: 1
Step Name: TransferData
Type: Operating System Command
On Success: Quit with Success
On Failure: Quit with Failure
PROPERTIES OF STEP
Step Name: TransferData
Type: Operating System Command (CmdExec)
Command: ( I have no idea what this translates to as I did not write it) DTSRun/~Z0xF6EE76ED6259A60AC370F465DE7F3095F4B37F7176C05B8E72E396DEBE60135E53ACFEDB00E1F216DD8EC8206782439BA435771E3C1E8A7A5D0DAE3F3AAA9F48BF08A9A9FA23C010A85573546F6B6B900323F76DC8A27EACAFD63904464DD5A9B28137
Nothing special in the advanced tab
SCHEDULES TAB
ID: 20
Name: TransferData
Enabled: No
Description: Occurs every 1 day(s), every 2 minute(s) between 12:00:00 AM and 11:59:59 PM
and is setup as Recurring
Nothing in Notifications Tab
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.

Hi!
I just wonder if it is possible to run a scheduled task from a SQL Server 6.5 Client. Whenever I would try to run a scheduled task from a SQL Server Client a would get the error message that says "The SQLExecutive service is not currently running on server 'POFDS1099'. This prevents task 'ACORS2 FS90 People Pull' from being run", but when I would try to go the server itself, the service is runnning. Can anybody please tell me what could be the possible cause of this or perhaps 6.5 doesn't really support running scheduled task using SQL Server client. Thanks.
By the way, I also have SQL 2000 Client running on my local.
Thanks again,
Lhot

I have a SQL Scheduled Job in SQL 2005 SP2 that executes a few different SSIS packages. When I update the SSIS Packages, SQL Agent runs the job and shows success; however, the underlying packages are not executed. The packages are located on the server but we are using UNC paths in the jobs since much of the time they are started manually from a remote workstation and the jobs seem to look at the initiating workstation's file server rather than that of the SQL Server. Is this a known issue?
Thank you,
Jennifer

Hi allI am looking for the best method to automate a website's database management. Lets say I have a user registration database and the users register. This sends an automated email to the user with a link to activate the users registration. If the user does not register within 24 hours, his registration must be automatically deleted from the database using a stored procedure.I know how to do this using the global.aspx file, however there must be an alternative way of doing this, especially if the database is an SQL database. I do not know how much MSSQL server access is given to a developer by an as ISP who hosts the website.Can anyone tell me what would be the best method to use.ThxWarren
