So Important Feature Has So Many Bugs!
Mar 20, 2008
I tried SQL mirroring in beta 1 , then it was gone, until SP1.
Now I can not setup mirror, it is fine if it is just hard to setup, but it seems it is full of bug! The mirroring has to be stable, since I am trying to mirror product db, what a diaster if something goes wrong.
I am trying two servers, both has 9.0.3042. First I tried to setup on my home machine, I VPN to my network, After I config security, I see two connection strings:
TCP://sql8.mydomain.netsql2005:5022
TCP://sql5.mydomain.netsql2005:5022
and I click start mirroring, then I got error - Alter failed due to invalid connection string. Hard to figure it out, right?
Then I tried the same thing on a server in the network, this time I get
TCP://sql8.mydomain.net:5022
TCP://sql5.mydomain.net:5022
and it doesn't show that error anymore, I am not sure why the connection should be like the latter format, but in anyway, how come SMO can not make it right?
then I get another error, SQL server doesn't exist or can not access, I search on the Internet, it seems that error could mean anything, include that the mirror db is not in restore mode.
But I did set the mirror db in restore mode and both sql5 and sql8 are under same domain, pysically close.
So what else I can check?
Any suggestion?
thanks

Here is another one thats been bothering me for quite some time and I believe for user with regional and language settings to non-US English.
I have my regional settings set to Canadian English. I am using Calender controls to pick up Start, End dates in my report. When I pick a date from calender it automatically converts it behind the scenes to US English I believe. Therefore when I run the report, I get the result set, say from Oct 8 instead of Aug 10. Further, if I select the date as 13 Aug, the following error gets thrown (as a result that the SSRS is not able to identify 13 being any month of course)
"An error occured during local report processing. The value provided for the report parameter 'StartDate' is not valid for its type".
Is there a solution to this problem? The underlying date type is DateTime, so why should it matter which regional setting I use?
Comments anyone?

try copying a connection manager from one package to another
it does not work
e.g. excel connection manager
it loses the name of the connection manager and also the file you are pointing to
so it is basically no different to 'add new connection manager'
also
try copying the name of the connection manager to another connection
select connection, hit F2 (edit) ctrl C,
try pasting!
in order to paste you have to right click on the selected text and select copy from the context menu
this is not a bug
this sloppy, poorly tested software

There are four limitations or apparent bugs I have experienced in 2005MS. Two I know are for real.Two real limitations/bugs --1. Can't edit table-valued function.2. Can't get nulls to be missing (blank) in text output paneTwo more I just encountered, and am wondering about --3. DB->All Tasks->Import Data->Load CSV file (exported from Excel) ->garbled table as some rows end up being extra columns. The samespreadsheets load okay from XLS format.Table should have shape A, instead has shape B:A B|...| |...||...| |...||...| |......||...| |......||...| |...||...||...|4. SET NOCOUNT OFF has no effect after SET NOCOUNT ONIs there a way to work around these, or are they real bugs?

Where can a person go to report SSRS 2005 bugs? I didn't see any area for error reporting.
These are the few bugs I've recorded, but I've seen so much more :(
On 2005sp1, and mainly using ssas 2005 for source data:
When you have an existing report parameter that was created by the graphical query designer area for dataset1, and then you go to make another dataset and add the same hierarchy and choose for it to be a parameter, it will overwrite what parameter settings you just had (ie, not multivalue and a special default value I desired).
When adding subsequent series or category fields to a chart, the default series/category grouping name remains the same and causes a error when attempting to run the report. IE: chart2_CategoryGroup1, chart2_CategoryGroup1, chart2_CategoryGroup1 - all names are the same for all of the 3 groupings that I've added.

I am getting incorrect results from my paging query, where the same results are being returned multiple times. Here are two queries I have found to bring the same results:select top 20 * from lookupdocuments_dbv where catname_cst='MyCategoryName' and (docid_cin not in (select top 620 docid_cin from lookupdocuments_dbv where catname_cst='MyCategoryName'))select top 20 * from lookupdocuments_dbv where catname_cst='MyCategoryName' and (docid_cin not in (select top 640 docid_cin from lookupdocuments_dbv where catname_cst='MyCategoryName'))When I remove the catname_cst where clause it brings back results properly (i.e. records 622-642 and 643-663). What is wrong with my where clause that is causing identical data to be returned?

I was creating an SSIS package, seemingly simple. One of the tasks I needed to do involved copying our production database to a seperate DB instance for staging. I wanted an SSIS package that would stage production so we could push and test changes.
My first problem is that I tried to create a simple Transfer Database task. When I tried to run the task, I got an error stating that our Stored Procedure, DtsRun, could not be scripted. It's an encrypted stored procedure.
A little annoyed, I decided that I'd do a transfer SQL objects instead. Now I don't want to hard-code my objects to xfer based on the current schema and edit this SSIS script every time we make a DB change; I just want it to copy ALL objects except for my encrypted proc. I'll just build a list with with another task.
I decided that I'll write a script that generates a list of proc names, and I'll pass that to the Copy SQL Server Objects task. Well apparantly I can't assign a collection value with a script. I have to create ANOTHER package that modifies THIS package because (1) The entire package isn't exposed to the script task and (2) object variables can't be used in expressions.
Am I missing something? So because I use a single encrypted stored procedure, I have to write 2 fairly complex packages to copy my database? That's just stupid. I can understand if SQL can't move the encrypted package while the database is online. I could deal with that. But the extremes I have to go to JUST to copy my database are truly rediculous.
I was really excited about SSIS, but I've been really dissapointed. The performance of the designer on my machine is really poor (I have a Core T2700 with 2GB RAM). Just about every error message I've gotten, both design-time and run-time, I've had to google because they're so obscure. And if you can only store blittable types and strings in variables, that severely limits the functionality of a package (without going to programmatic extremes).
Most of all, I'm really dissapointed in the expression system, If the CLR is loaded into the SSQL/SSIS runtime, then why am I coding it using ANOTHER proprietary coding syntax???? I thought .NET was meant to keep people from having to redesign the wheel???
Microsoft is constantly pushing C#, yet I can only script in VB.NET, which means I now have code-bases in different languages.
Overall, I'm really dissapointed with SSIS. The usefulness of the added functionality in SSIS packages is shrowded by the massive list of nuances.

Hello guys,
We have customers that are using web synchronization. Could you, please tell us when service pack for the bugs, discussed in thread http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=689428&SiteID=1 will be reliazed?
What replication participants should apply the service pack in a configuration where Subscriber (MS SQL 2005 Express) gets synchronized with Publisher/Diustributor (MS SQL 2005 Standard)?
Thanks.

Hey!
Has anybody here had any issues with the MS03-031 security patch and SQL 2000 on Windows 2003?
We recently installed this patch on one of our test SQL 2000 machines, and the performance of queries running on this machine have gone up (gotten worse) by at least 10X.
We use indexed views and all queries are run with WITH(NOEXPAND) to force the indexed view to be used.
Anyway, after the patch was installed, the queries on the indexed view will ONLY use the clustered index, and not any of the other indexes, causing a Clustered Index Scan.
I removed the patch (well, re-installed SQL) patched it up to SP3a, and performance is back to normal.
Anybody experience anything similar?

The programmers encountered a problem as following:
Different programmers use the same account(Admin) to login to the same database to create table from different workstation. The tables were created through the same steps which is highlighted the Table folder -->New table then go through the wizard. The table were created successfully but the ownership were different. One with Admin as owner, the other has dbo as owner. Even Admin is the owner of the database but this created a problem for them that they need to specify differently for the tables depend on who created them.
what is the cause of this, sevice pack 3 is installed on the machine.
Its Sql Server 7.0
Thanks in advance.

Dear friends,
After installing visual interdev, on a webserver (nt4.0 ent server),
whenever I was trying to configure the DSN on the ODBC settings, It gives
" The ODBC resource DLL (C:WINNTSYSTEM32odbcint.dll)is a different
vaersion than the ODBC setup dll(c:winntsystem32odbccp32.dll)
you need to reinstall the ODBC components to ensure proper operation." error msg.
I thought of removing all the ODBC drivers and reinstlling the odbc drivers came with NT SERVER. I don't know how to do it. If anyone knows how to do it, can you please post it. Thanks a lot.

Our SSIS package suddenly stopped loading. We have 64 bit server on which we run SSIS packages. We had problem "script task failed to load" so we started to use the 32-bit version of dtexec to run the packages. Package used to run fine.
Today we upgraded our server to Sp1 and 2153 hot fix (x64) and now the package have stopped to load.
we confirmed that the issue is not as inthe KB below:
http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb%3Ben-us%3B918038
We are still using the 32-bit version of DTExec(as in SQLx86). With 64 bit we get the error "script faield to load". we are going to fix the script failed to load error but, we need help to get going right now.
help would be greatly appreciated
