Hi,
we run a nightly job processes, this job depends on the data entered from the frontend, since yesterday we have been entering lot of data in it, so the job that ran last night 10pm(09/05/00) is still running now and its next schedule time 10pm today(09/06/00), if the same job is already running since yesterday and if it still runs till 10pm today, will it starts again as per the schedule or it will not run, since the same job is running since yesterday.
Does anyone has a script or knows how to find out whether the schedule job completed or not? If I schedule the job to backup all databases on server and e-mail me when job completes. But one time the job got stuck and somehow never completed. Is there a way I can schedule the job to see whether the other job completed or not?
I have set scehduled Backup process, which suppose to run every night at 210000, and a seperate job for Tlog every 15 minutes.
Schduled job won't run at all..Job ius enabled, scheduled is enabled. SQL Server service is running under local admin account.. Then Why not job runs? No Event Log, No Job History and no Job output? They why not Run?
When I change the SA password on my server the current Scheduled SQL Jobs no longer work. If I run DTS packages by themselves and not from the Scheduled job window they work fine. I am using the sa as the Owner of the jobs and my SQL Agents services use a Domain Account. If I rebuild the jobs after the sa password is change they work fine. However, I don't want to rebuild 100 jobs every time I change my SA password.How can I fix or get around this problem without rebuilding my jobs?
On production server, I have two tasks in status "performing completion action" for last couple hours. Ususally these tasks take seconds to finish. Do you know how can I kill or cancel these tasks? I tried to stop both the jobs couple times but nothing is happening.
There are no locks/blocks on current activity window.
Previously I was performing the process of populating my DataMart and then processing my cubes via 2 separate job scheduled one after the other and with about 30 minutes idle time in-between (just in case).
I now have tried to make a single job with both of the above as 2 steps (one after the other) of a single job.
However when I was done, I did a right click and tried to run the newly created job but instead of what I was hoping (that the job would start, would perform the 1st step, followed by the 2nd), it instead popped up a dialog box asking (I think) which step needs to be executed :(
Is there a solution so that when the job is scheduled to run, it should start performing the steps in the order rather than waiting for someone to select which step to perform.

I have a DTS package that consist of approximately 50 steps which pulls data from an as400 and populates a SQL 7.0 database. The package works perfect flawlessly when executed manually but won't run when scheduled.
The DTS package starts but hangs when it tries to connect to the as400, this is where the problem lies. The preceeding steps work fine but they execute against the SQL 7.0 database. I have client access installed on the server and configured. I checked and made sure the SQL server agent service was started and running also,I just can't figure why it works fine manually,but not when scheduled.
I have a very peculiar problem. I have few CommandExec jobs on SQL Server 7.0 which has been scheduled to execute at a specific time. The jobs are executing properly but, the problem is they stop after the completion. i.e after finishing the jobs they still flash a message "Executing the job" they don't flash the message "Not Running" this is happening only to commandExec jobs, I have also few TSQL jobs which are working properly. I tried even giving the duration (start and stop time) but no use. Has anyone encountered this problem? If you have a solution PLS pass it on to me. I am in a very desparate situation.
Running NT 4.0, sp6a. and sql 2k. I have a DTS job that works just fine if i go to 'design view' and then 'execute' it. But if I schedule it, the following error appears.. My question is... why? Also I modified the path from the current below (denapp02cmc$cd01.txt to the local path of the server as well... still came up with the same problem. ?? TIA! ::

hi, I have settup up sql mail and did the following: 1. created an E-mail account and configured Out look by creating a pop3 mail profile. tested it by sending and receiving mail, that is ook 2. I Created one domain account for MSsqlserver and Sql Agent service. both services use same account and start automatically in the control panel-services 3. I used the profile that I created in outlook to test the sql mail but got an error: Error 22030 : A MAPI error ( error number:273) occurred: MapiLogon Ex Failed due to MAPI Error 273: MAPI Logon Failed
I really do not know what went wrong. I followed the steps from bol and still having a problem. Am I missing something.
I do have a valid email account I do have a valid domain account I tested outlook using the email account and it worked. so why sql server does not recognise MAPI.
My next question, How to configure MAPI in Sql server if what I did was wrong.

Hello, I am facing a huge problem in my sql server database using access as a front end.The main problem is trying to execute queries "views" ,since they reside on sql server now,and using variables or parameters in reports and forms to filter on this query. Ex. how can the following be implemented using the same query but in sql server? Access ------ SELECT MAT_Charts.YYYYMM FROM MAT_Charts WHERE ((([Area_Code] & "-" & [GROUP_CODE])=[Reports]![MAT_Chart_C1].[MAT_Key])) GROUP BY MAT_Charts.YYYYMM;
It is specifically this statement in which I am interested: [GROUP_CODE])=[Reports]![MAT_Chart_C1].[MAT_Key]))

I have designed a DTS Package and it can be run successfully from Enterprise Manager. However, when I schedule the DTS package to run as a job then it fails with an error message of "Error string: The system cannot find the file specified.".
Anyone any idea as to why the job cannot find the DTS package?
Can it be something to do with SQL Server 7 and 2000 tools as 2000 Client tools have recently been installed onto my PC and the package and job ran fine when I had designed everything in SQL Server 7.
Hi, I am trying to do an automatic backup of my database and for some reason it does not do it. I have it set to backup daily at 4:00 pm. Please let me know if you know why it is not backing up on it's own. The Server manager is on always and a manual backup is not a problem for me, only the automatic. Thanks very much.
I have a number of DTS packages which when run manually complete successfully however, when run as scheduled tasks they always fail. Can anyone offer any advice?
I'm thinking of using the SQL Agent Job Scheduler as part of a larger application and I'm wondering if anyone knows of a limit on how many schedules or jobs that can exist on a SQL Server at one time.

When I create a DTS to import data from Visual FoxPro it will work if I run immeadiately, but when I schedule it to run at a specific time it will Fail. Any ideas why??
I am trying to figure out a way , looking at the tables in MSDB (SysJobHistory) that if a scheduled job is running and not completed yet , for how long it has been running. I have to look for all the jobs with run_status = 4 (in process). But what i figured out it no history is written till the job is finished or cancelled. Can anyone help me with this
I have a scheduled job that run one time a day at 10 pm. My problem is that if the job fail, i want that the job run 10 minutes after until it complete with success.
In SQL 6.5, when a scheduled job failed, you could see the error message in the history. In SQL 7.0, it simply tells you which was the last step to run. Is there a place which will report the actual error message generated by the task?
I have created a DTS package on a developement server that connects to our Exchange server and downloads customer service e-mail and inserts them into a table. This is done using a VB script.
When I right click on the job and execute it, it runs fine and we can see the mails after they show up in the table.
However, when I schedule the job to run at 15 minute intervals it fails with a vb runtime error. When I copy the job to my personal machine and schedule it, it runs just fine and again we see the mails in the table.
The server has the latest version of the scrrun.dll as well as IE 5.0.
I have messed around with this for 3 days now and have gotten MSFT involved as well.
Anyone seen this before? Any ideas or help will be greatly appreciated.
I am running a scheduled DTS which transfers all the rows in a production table to another server every 30 minutes,each time it truncates the table on the second server before transfer.It has been running fine for several days.Will there be any problem in this kind of backup strategy? Do I have to clear any history logs frequently?Or any other problem can happen? Can anyone suggest any precautions,as there will not be any down time allowed.Replication is also not acceptable by the client. Thanks.
Why is it that I can run my DTS package locally howeverv when I try to run it as a Job it always fails? I do realize that the sqladmin account is used to run the job and it has all the permissions needed.
Any suggestions?
Also if I kick the job off from my local system it states it cannot find the batch file that I am trying to run? Im running it on the server however it treats it like im running it locally?
I have just taken away a tremendous amount of rights from our developers, but would like some of the developers to still have rights to manage the scheduled job. Short of making them a system administrator I can not seem to find a predefined role that will do this. Is there one? And if not what system stored procedures or xp would you need to give them rights to, to view and run the scheduled jobs in enterprise manager.
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?
Hiya, Got a little question for future reference. I have a cursor that does a grant for roles, users, etc. for all tables in a DB. I can manually run it in query analyzer and it does fine. The issue is that if I try to create it as a SQL Agent job and just paste the script into the command box it returns the error:
Line 1: Incorrect syntax near 'xxx yyy'. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 170) Associated statement is not prepared [SQLSTATE HY007] (Error 0) Line 1: Incorrect syntax near 'xxx yyy'. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 170). The step failed.
The Cursor is written as follows:
declare @cStatement varchar(255)
declare G_cursor CURSOR for select 'grant select on[' + convert(varchar(64),name) + ']to "xxx yyy"' from sysobjects where (type = 'U' or type = 'V') and uid = 1
set nocount on OPEN G_cursor FETCH NEXT FROM G_cursor INTO @cStatement WHILE (@@FETCH_STATUS <> -1) begin EXEC (@cStatement) FETCH NEXT FROM G_cursor INTO @cStatement end DEALLOCATE G_cursor
I figure this has something to do with the quoted_identifier option or something simple like that, but I can't put my finger on it....In Query Analyzer this will error out if I don't have double quotes around the DB role "xxx yyy" because of the space in the role name.
I corrected the error by recreating the role name without a space, but I have some other places I'd like to be able to use this where I won't have the luxury of recreating the role if it has a space in the name.
I have the below code which works to rebuild indexes on a large db. I can run it from QA, but not as a job or as a sp in a job. I get the same error
