Hi, I need to write a script to run an automation in MS SQL 2005. It will run every 10 hours. What the script will do is just import a .cvs file into a database table. Can someone let me know how can I acheive this? Thanks in advanced.
View 2 RepliesHi 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
View 1 Replies View RelatedI 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?

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
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
Hi!
I've written an scheduled job for importing an excel file into a sql table.When I try to run the job from Sql server agent , I get the status 'Not running',and in the last run status,it's written 'failed'.I've tested the command before in the query analyzer,and it works.Can someone tell me why isn't this working as a scheduled job?
Thanks in advance!
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.

Hi there!,
Problem: I schedule a job that calls a stored procedure which loads around 1.5 million records. The Job takes 19 hrs to complete. However, if i run that stored procedure manually in Query Analyser it takes only 45 minutes..
Did anyone faced this problem? Is this known problem..Any suggestions/recommendations?
thank you.

Nana
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:

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,

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,

Hi
Using SQL Server 2005 with SP1, I have successfully managed to schedule jobs to run SSIS packages. They connect to another SQLServer 2000 box, using SQLOLEDB connection manager, to extract data and import it into SQL 2005. The protection level for the packages is Server storage so that the job is run under the SQL Agent account. This is a specific domain account so that it can access other servers.
However, using the same setup for a scheduled job to to run an SSIS package which connects to another SQL Server 2000 box with connection manager SQL OLEDB, I get the following error message:
The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "xxx" failed with error code 0xC0202009.
As the both the successful and failed jobs seem to have been set up in the same way with the same protection levels and are both run under a domain sql agent account, is there anything else I should be checking that I don't know about?
Any help is much appreciated!
Setting: sql 2005, SP1.
I created a new job (under SQL Server agent) which runs a simple ActiveX script. When run interactively, the job runs fine. But when run under the scheduler the job fails to even start. There is no error message and "History" makes no reference at all to the job run. I checked, the job is enabled. Any thoughts much appreciated.
TIA,

We just installed SQL Server 2005. I have 3 jobs within SQL Server 2000 that i would like to import into the new server howeber i have no clue on how to achieve this. In fact I dont even know how to make a new job within SQL Server 2005 at all? Can someone please give me the steps on how to do this.
BTW the old job accesses launches a .EXE application every day, once a day at 5pm and the other job launches the same applicationb but at 5am. I had to have 2 seperate jobs because I couldnt figure out how to pass a different parameter for the two launches.
Thanks.
I have a job in SQL 2005 that when it runs works fine if I hard code the Makedate, what I need it to do is have the Makedate equal todays date minus one day...I came up with the code below, but that does seem to work...any thoughts.
INSERT INTO abcTransaction( Payee, Payment, AccountNumber)SELECT 'Credit', SUM(Rebate * Quantity), A.AccountNumberFROM Account AINNER JOIN abdTrades T on A.AccountNumber = T.AccountNumber Where MakeDate = getDate() - 1
GROUP BY A.AccountNumber
Hi All
I designed a maintenance plan in 2005 it create job in SQL Server Agent-->Jobs when i right click on job to check the properties it doesn’t give me the details of that job instead it open the window for new job which is not the case in 2000. Can some one there please let me know how to check the job details in 2005in GUI not in terms of T-SQL

Hi Guys,
Any assistance you people can provide will be considered grateful. I€™m in search of a generic cookie cutter snippet of code that simulates the creation of an Oracle DBMS_JOB, but I need it for SQL Server 2005.
Beneath, highlighted in red, is how we create a DBMS_JOB in Oracle, but I need the snippet of code to accomplish the same objective on SQL Server 2005. In Oracle, we deploy our scheduled jobs using anonymous pl/sql which is written in black, as shown beneath. To facilitate conversion of our project scheduled task it would be great if someone can assist me in translating the code beneath written in black and red.
REM spool schedule-jobs_a.sql.log
REM declare
REM jobno NUMBER;
REM cursor job_cur is select job from user_jobs
REM where what like 'dbms_utility.analyze_schema%';
REM begin
REM
REM for job_rec in job_cur loop
REM dbms_job.remove(job_rec.job);
REM
REM end loop;
REM dbms_job.submit(jobno,what => 'dbms_utility.analyze_schema(''&&anal'',''compute'');', interval => 'TO_DATE(SUBSTR(TO_CHAR(TRUNC(SYSDATE+1)),1,10)) + 360/1440', next_date => SYSDATE);
REM dbms_output.put_line( 'Next job '||jobno );
REM exception
REM when others then raise;
REM end;
REM /
PS, I€™m not looking for instructions to create a Scheduled Job through Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio, but rather, I need T-SQL code to create a Schedule Job to run daily at some period of time and run some snippet of code.
Thanks,
Vikram
I have a strange problem that I think deals with security on SQL 2005.I have a scheduled task that runs on a Windows 2000 machine. It callsa vb script which creates a connection to SQL Server.We migrated a database from SQL 2000 to 2005 which is on a differentbox. I changed the connection in the vb script to use the new sqlserver. The original connection to SQL 2000 used the 'sa' accountcoded into the connection string , which we don't want to use on thenew server, so I changed the connection string in the script to usethe below login information.Const strConnection = "Provider=SQLOLEDB;DataSource=SQLServer;Integrated Security=SSPI;Persist SecurityInfo=False;Initial Catalog=database;I created a domain user and gave it dbo rights on the new database onSQL 2005 as well as administrative rights on the local machine and thenetwork. The task runs fine for a while and then it will fail tostart. I have looked in the event log as well as the SQL log and havenot found anything else that ran when my task failed. Once it hasfailed, if I manually run the vb script on the 2000 machine, it runsjust fine, but the schedule won't work. If I change the name of theuser that is running the scheduled task, it will begin working again.I have run the profiler on SQL 2005 and watched the scheduled tasklogin as the correct user and update the database. There is nopattern to when the scheduled task will stop running. This has beenhappening for a few days now.This script and scheduled task worked fine for over a year on themachine when it logged into SQL 2000 and nothing else has changed,which makes me think it is related to the SQL 2005 server. Any ideas?
View 1 Replies View RelatedBelow is a migration plan that I've compiled to migrate SQL 2000 DTS packages to SSIS 2005. Once these DTS packages have been migrated i will need to create a job and schedule them in SQL 2005.
I would appreciate and feedback or questions on this migration plan.
Migration DTS 2000 packages to SSIS 2005:
1. Will need to save the current production DTS package as structure storage file. We do not have a UDL file. We set the data connections within each DTS package.
2. Go to Sql 2005 - ManagementLegacyData Transformation Services - right-click and open previous saved structure storage file.
3. Modify the DTS data creditentials to reflect the SQL 2005 connection data. Modify any SQL 2000 MAPI settings to utilize SQL 2005 new database mail. Save the package on SQL 2005.
4. After the modified DTS package has been updated and saved on SQL 2005, save this file as a structure storage file.
5. go to BIDS. Create a new SSIS project. Right-click on SSIS packages and select Migrate DTS 2000 package. This will migrate over the DTS 2000 package with the updated SQL 2005 data creditentails.
6. click on the package properties - protectionlevel and change it to dontsavesensitive.
7. right-click and select package configurations..., select to store data creditentials in xml format.
8. right-click on execute DTS 2000 package task, select Edit... and click on Load DTS2000 package internally. This will embed this task into the new SSIS package. Test the package. Continue if successful.
9. Use SSIS deployment functionality to move the package over to SQL 2005 Integration Services. Right-click on package and select Run Package, if successful, create a job and schedule it to run on SQL 2005 Agent.
10. When creating the Job under SQL Agent, change the Owner: of the job to reflect the owner of the new SSIS package. Schedule the job.
I've just coming up to speed on SSIS 2005. Therefore, this is what i've been able to piece together up to this point and I'm looking for some industry advice/feedback on whether or not this is a good migration plan. I need to provide a migration plan to management by 2/18. Thanks
Hi, I am running SQL Server 2005 x64 DE on Vista x64. I installed MS VS 2005 Pro. Edition. During the setup of VS, I did a custom install, un-checking the SQL Express addition box. After installation, I received errors that indicated the SQL Express did not install. Even though I do not have SQL Express installed on my machine, MS Update says that I need SQL Express SP2. My SQL DE is up to date with SP2 and MS Update indicates as "optional" that I need SQL SP2.
Is SQL Express a necessity for VS Pro? If not, why is MS Update indicating that I need SQL Express SP2? In addition, why is MS Update telling me I need SQL SP2 when it is already installed?
Note: I installed SQL SP2 manually, not through MS Update. This makes me believe that MS Update is not detecting it.
Thanks in advance to anyone who can help,
Abel
I'm having some problems debugging SQL Server stored procedures on a SQL Server 2005 server. I have installed Visual Studio 2005 on a workstation running Windows XP, now I'm trying to debug a ASP.Net web application that has some code that executes the stored procedures on a Windows 2003 Server running SQL Server 2005.
I opened VS2005 ... created a connection to the SQL Server 2005 instance ... open the Stored procedure ... right click the stored procedure name and selected Step into Stored Procedure and the following message is displayed:
Unable to start T-SQL debugging.Could not attach to SQL Server process on 'ServerName'.
Any ideas.

Hi, I am migrating my client's site from SQL 2k to 2005. The site was built on .NET 1.1
In order to run SQL 2005, do we need to upgrade to .NET 2.0 in order to run the site?
If we do need to upgrade to .net 2.0, is there any way to get around the problem and run it on .NET 1.1. This is because we have a lot of 3rd party componenet which only support .NET 1.1
Thanks in advance.

I have a hosted solution where the web host provider tells me I'm running on a 2005 platform, but when I check the DB options, it shows compatibility level 80.

View 11 Replies View RelatedWhile executing DTS packages in SQL 2005 64-bit Enterprise Edition (we
haven't moved to SSIS yet), I am seeing the following message in the log
files, even though the DTS package runs successfully and does what it is
supposed to do:
GetRegValue(): Unable to RegQueryValueEx() The operation completed
successfully.
From the expression itself, it looks like something to do with registry.
But, nowhere in the DTS package I am reading or querying the registry, so I
am not sure why the DTS package is trying to access registry.
Executing the same DTS package in SQL 2000 does not have this problem.
Can somebody please help..?? I've had one instance when this DTS package ran

anything. I am thinking this message in the log file might be related to this

I have seen information on the web about running two versions of SQL at the same time on the same server but was wondering any tricks of the trade regarding it. The main recommendation that I have seen is to have SQL 2000 SP4 running first as the default instance (which is my current situation on a development server) and then install SQL 2005 as a named instance on it. Should the SQL 2005 installation place its files in a dedicated directory (ie, C:SQL2005) as opposed to the default directory that the installation would normally write to, thus not overwriting any SQL 2000 system files? Any other recommendations?
