Script For SQL Heart Beat - Doesn't Work For Me

May 28, 2004

Hello Techies,

Have one of you tried MAK's script to monitor SQL heartbeat...

I have configured the script as per his article.

http://www.databasejournal.com/features/mssql/article.php/3347241

But...it didn't work and reports errors with the log file...and seems like struck in INFINITE loop. I have attached the log file.

Anyone faced similar issue? How can I get this going?

Thanks,

Simulate Heart Beat Code To Manage Production Servers

Jan 1, 2008



Hi

I am currently developing a DBA management console for a company who have 45 SQL Servers, 20 of which are in the production environment. As part of the development I have created a DBA dashboard with various alerts and information dials regarding the state of the SQL Infrastructure. I came accross a problem yesterday that I cannot find the answer to.

One of the alerts I have developed is a simple "Heart Beat" indicator that displays that the SQL Server is present and "alive". To do this I have a central database running on SQL 2005 which has linked server connections toall 45 SQL Servers. This central database runs a simple select statement on each server (something that I know works if the server is there). The select is run as dynamic SQL as I need to build up the SQL as part of a cursor to place the server name within the from clause. Here is the select I am using: -

select top 1 dbid from [server].master.dbo.sysdatabases

If the server is not there an error occurrs. I trap this and record that the server may not be present. The cursor then moves on to the next server to check.

This works fine when ran from Query Analyser. I can simulate a failed server by deleting the link server connection. For the server in questions an error is raised when the select is run, I store the error and on the Dashboard screen you can see an indicator saying that the server is currently non-contactable (i.e. failed Heart Beat).

My problem comes when I try and schedule this procedure. If I run it as an SQL Agent Job it behaves differently. Here, as soon as the error is detected it bombs out stating that the step has failed. I don't mind it stating that the step has failed, what I want it to do is to complete the cursor loop on all the servers. You see at the top of the procedure I set all the heartbeats flags to 0 (i.e. not contactable) so I need to to complete the run. I have search the Agent set-up and can find no flag to stop it halting processes when an error occurs.

The servers are configured not to allow RPC and I would rather not have to put a job on every server to tell me they exist as this would need managing going forward.

Any help you can offer would be greatly appreciated - Happy New Year by the way!

DTS Doesn't Work Through Job

Sep 15, 2005

I'm pretty new to DTS, so forgive me if this is basic. I created a simple DTS package to run a query and export it to a text file. I can execute the package fine from my workstation through EM, but when I try to execute the job to run the package I get this error:
Error = -2147467259 (80004005) Error string: Error opening datafile: Access is denied.

I think that maybe SQL Agent doesn't have the right permissions to write to that network drive. What should the permissions be?

IIF Doesn't Work

Nov 10, 2004

This is probably very simple, but I can't get passed this problem.

I have a report in MS Access that uses info generated by a query. One of the text fields in the query contains either the word 'Select' or the name of a course.
The report should display a space if the value is 'Select', or the actual value of the field in any other case. The field can never contain a null value.

I've used:
=IIf([optVoc1]="Select","",[optVoc1])
in the text box on the report, but this only returns #error regardless of the actual content of the field.

What am I doing wrong?

Regards,

BD

Sql Job Doesn't Work

Aug 27, 2004

Hi all,

I create and schedule a SQL job to run every minute to update a table base on certain condition but it doesn't work. Job history says successful every time but the table doesn't get updated.

However if I move it to Query Analyzer and run it under dba, it will work. Thinking that it may have to do with the user the job run as, I then change run as user from self to dba. But still SQL job won't update my table.

Anything about user permission or security that I can check? Or it there any other possibility?

TIA

Help! LIKE Doesn't Work!!!

Apr 19, 2008

Hi to all, I'm building (and learn) an application with VB Express. In "edit dataset with designer" I've build this sql query:

SELECT tbl_soggetto.[ID Soggetto], tbl_soggetto_tipo.Tipo, tbl_soggetto.[Cognome/Denominazione], tbl_soggetto.Nome, tbl_soggetto.Indirizzo, tbl_soggetto.CAP, tbl_soggetto.Città , tbl_soggetto.Provincia, tbl_soggetto.[Telefono 1], tbl_soggetto.[Telefono 2], tbl_soggetto.[Telefono 3], tbl_soggetto.[Telefono 4], tbl_soggetto.[eM@il 1], tbl_soggetto.[eM@il 2], tbl_soggetto.Note

WHERE (tbl_soggetto.[Cognome/Denominazione] LIKE '%' + @Testo + '%')

SET Doesn't Work

The SQL Server service failed to start. For more information, see the SQL Server Books Online topics, "How to: View SQL Server 2005 Setup Log Files" and "Starting SQL Server Manually."

The log tells me nothing useful. I can't start the thing manually because after clicking cancel on the error message, the installer proceeds to roll back the installation.

How do I fix this problem?

Attaching Db Doesn't Work

WHERE With An Alias Doesn't Work

Aug 2, 2004

I'm combining first name, last name, middle name, and an ID number together into an alias. Then I need to match that alias with a variable passed to the page (its a search results page). The problem is it claims that there is no table with the name of my alias. Anyone know what I'm doing wrong?

A mockup of the SQL looks like this:

SELECT UserID, Last_Name + ', ' + First_Name + ' ' + Middle_Name + '.' AS name
FROM Table
WHERE name LIKE 'variable%'


Everything looks right with the results, if I take out the WHERE clause it has name displayed properly and joined together with the rest of the data in the results properly.

Thanks in advance for any help that can be provided!

Drill Through Doesn't Work.

Feb 7, 2007

I have a drill through that passes four parameters. Three are passed from the current selections in that reports parameters and the fourth needs to be the customer name they click on in the body of the report so it's passed as Fields!fieldname.Value. When I click on the customer name, the drillthough fires but the report simply doesn't load. If I remove the parameter from the field clicked on and just pass the three parameters, it goes to the drill through correctly and that fourth parameter just sets to the default for that parameter in that report.

I can then simply check that parameter and select the value from the list that is exactly the same as the value I was attempting to pass it in the drill through and report refreshes correctly.

Whatever it is, is something in the manner that the value is passed in the drill through specifically.

Any ideas?

Using SP_ATTACH_SINGLE_FILE_DB Doesn't Work.

Mar 15, 2007

Hello,
I've rescued a MDF and LDF files off a client's old server, and I wanted to attach it to our own, but I can't seem to get the command to work, basically I have these two files, which I've dropped on our server:

C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLDataMYCLIENTNAME_Data.MDF
C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLDataMYCLIENTNAME_Data.LDF

So when I do a
SP_ATTACH_SINGLE_FILE_DB 'somedb','C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLDataMYCLIENTNAME_Data.MDF'

It says the LDF path my be incorrect, and that there's two other files that are missing:
MYCLIENTNAME_LOG (no extension)
extra_log (no extension)

I thought the whole point of the command is that you only need a single file?
Its very hard to go back to the client's old server and try to find these two files, and it doesn't really matter if we loose a bit of data, so long as the bulk of it is available.

Update: I think I've found the answer...its not possible to do this, it really needs all the log files.
Any workarounds?

Why Doesn't This DecryptByKeyAutoCert Work?

Jun 25, 2007

This works:



-- authenticator

CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[cc2_Helper]( @SecretData VARBINARY(256), @cId INT )

RETURNS NVARCHAR(50)

WITH EXECUTE AS 'DBO'

AS

BEGIN

RETURN convert( NVARCHAR(50), decryptbykeyautocert( cert_id( 'cert_SecretTable_SecretData_Key' ), null, @SecretData, 1, convert(varbinary, @cId) ) )

END

go

CREATE VIEW [dbo].[cc2View2]

AS

SELECT CardID as CardID, [dbo].[cc2_Helper](CardNumber, CardID) as CardNumber FROM [dbo].[cc2]

go

GRANT SELECT ON [dbo].[cc2View2] TO [user_low_priv]





This doesn't:



-- auth2/view3

CREATE FUNCTION [dbo].[cc2_Helper2]( @SecretData VARBINARY(256), @vBin VARBINARY )

RETURNS NVARCHAR(50)

WITH EXECUTE AS 'DBO'

AS

BEGIN

RETURN convert( NVARCHAR(50), decryptbykeyautocert( cert_id( 'cert_SecretTable_SecretData_Key' ), null, @SecretData, 1, @vBin ) )

END

go

CREATE VIEW [dbo].[cc2View3]

AS

SELECT CardID as CardID, [dbo].[cc2_Helper2](CardNumber, convert(varbinary, CardID)) as CardNumber FROM [dbo].[cc2]

go

GRANT SELECT ON [dbo].[cc2View3] TO [user_low_priv]



WHY? Note that the conversion to VARBINARY was moved from the call to DecryptByKeyAutoCert to the call to cc2_Helper2. That is the only change...



But if I declare @vBin as VARBINARY(256) then it does work! Guess I'm a little confused on declaring vars...anyone can elucidate? Thanks.

STUMPED: Why Doesn't This Procedure Work?

I have been looking at this for over a day now. I cannot see why this procedure does not work, its so simple.
No matter what happens it always returns 0. If it locates a record, it doesnt update it, yet it still returns 0.
It should not be returning 0 if its not updating so I can't figure out why it does.
Why does this always return 0?

IF EXISTS(SELECT categoryTitle FROM categories WHERE categoryTitle = @title) BEGIN  SELECT @Result = 1 ENDELSE BEGIN  INSERT INTO categories(categoryTitle, categoryDescription, displayOrder)  VALUES(@title, @description, @displayOrder)   /* If no error was encountered, 0 will be returned. */  SELECT @Result = @@Error ENDGO[/pre]

Upgrade And Now Mail Doesn`t Work

The account that I am using is used for all our SQL Servers and was working on this server on 6.5 before the upgrade. I have checked the new SQLServerAgent service and it`s using the correct account.

Any help would be appreciated.

A Simple Trigger That Doesn't Work

Jan 18, 2006

Hi all, I have a problem with this trigger. It seams to be very simple, but it doesn't work...

I created a trigger on a table and I would want that this one updates a field of a table on a diffrent DB (Intranet). When I test it normally (a real situation), it doesn't work, but when I do an explicit update ("UPDATE AccesCard SET LastMove = getDate();" by example) it works.

If anyone could help me, I would appreciate.

NB: Is there a special way, in a trigger, to update a table when the table to update is on another BD ?

Francois

This is the trigger:
------------------------------------------------------------

ALTER TRIGGER UStatus
ON AccesCard
AFTER UPDATE, INSERT
AS

DECLARE @noPerson int

SET NOCOUNT OFF

IF UPDATE(LastMove)
BEGIN
SELECT @noPerson = Person FROM INSERTED
UPDATE Intranet.dbo._Users SET Intranet.dbo._Users.status = 1 WHERE personNo = @noPerson;
END

SQL Server 2000: TCP/IP Doesn't Seem To Work

Nov 24, 2006

I have the following situation: A webserver in a DMZ which connects to a DbServer in a Domain.

but when I try to make a ODBC connection on the webserver I get the well-known "Server does not exist or access denied" error.

I tried using IP address as well as FQDN. I turned off the firewall in the router (I'm able to access shares and what not from the webserver so the firewall is really turned off).

I think however i have narrowed down the problem to the TCP/IP connection of the SQL Server. Normally when you try from a command prompt
"telnet dbserver 1433" you get a connection. But when I try this to the specific DbServer I get an "unable to connect" error. Even when I try it on the dbserver itself (so telnet localhost 1433). This should work always?

In the network configuration of the sql server the Named Piped as well as the TCP/IP protocols are enabled. TCP/IP is offcourse configured on port 1433.

How can I fix this problem?

An Ugly Self-join (oh, That Doesn't Work!!)

Feb 17, 2004

Hi again, all...here I am again, trying to work on my CloseIndex thang again...Same subject, different tack...

Basically, I have two tables...for the sake of simplicity, let me define them as:


PortfolioIndex
PortfolioID int
CreateDate smalldatetime
CloseIndex float

PortfolioPerformance
PortfolioID int
CreateDate smalldatetime
PrevDate smalldatetime
DailyPerChg float

UPDATE PortfolioIndex
SET CloseIndex = CASE
WHEN PPI.CloseIndex IS NULL THEN 100.00
ELSE (PPI.CloseIndex + (PPI.CloseIndex * PP.DailyPerChg / 100))
END
FROM PortfolioIndex AS P INNER JOIN PortfolioIndex AS PPI on (P.PortfolioID = PPI.PortfolioID), PortfolioPerformance AS PP
WHERE (P.PortfolioID = PP.PortfolioID) AND
((P.CreateDate = PP.CreateDate) AND
(P.CreateDate = @CreateDate) AND
(PPI.CreateDate = PP.PrevDate))


What I am trying to do is...get the previous day's portfolioIndex row's CloseIndex and create a new one for today's row.

As ugly as it is, it works when I execute it in the SQL Query Analyzer, but when I try to create the stored procedure, the syntax check complains that the PortfolioIndex reference at the UPDATE... part is AMBIGUOUS...yet when I define it in the SP as P.PortfolioIndex, it fails at run time saying there is no object named P.PortfolioIndex (well, of course there isn't!).

How can I make this work (and if possible, make it prettier too! *L* ;) )

Why This Trigger Doesn't Work In Sql 2005

Mar 28, 2008

hi eveyrone,

I have an after insert trigger that works in sql2000 but not in sql2005. Can you please help me!!

CREATE trigger dbo.trUPS_tbl_I
on dbo.UPS_tbl
After Insert --For insert
as
declare @Tracking varchar(800),
@UPSID varchar(10),
@Cmmd varchar(800)

select @UPSID = cast(inserted.UPSID as varchar)
from inserted

commit

set @Cmmd = 'c:TasksUpdTrackingUpdateTrackingCS ' + @UPSID + ' ' + 'UPS1'
EXEC master.dbo.xp_cmdshell @Cmmd


The UpdateTrackingCS program will call a stored procedure to get the inserted data and update other databases. And the reason to put the commit statement in sql2000 is to have sql commit the transaction, so the store procedure in UpdateTrackingCS can query thtat inserted records.

When I use the same code in SQL2005, no matter what I do the UpdateTrackingCS program cannot query the data by the UPSID. It always says record not found.

I have tried to change commit to begin trans ... commit trans. But nothing works. Please help!

Thanks in advance.
