Can anyone let meknow how do i enable a service broker. I am trying to enable a service broker for an issuetracker application to get change of events in my database. When ever i try enabling it using the ALTER DATABASE [ databse] set Enable_Broker. it takes abt more that 2 hrs or more but doesnt show as enabled.
Our development team is building an application using .net framework 2.0 and sql server 2005 developer edition. They are using service broker and sql cache dependency classes in their code and we are running into a problem where the database used for their application is growing alarmingly in size, ends up using a log of memory and finally drags the machine. The database machine is a developer class machine used for development purpose only.
After we did our research we found the following:
1. the tables created by the team do not increase in size.
2. the system tables created by sql server for service broker and sql dependency grows very big during their usage.
sys.sysconvgroup sys.sysdesend sys.sysdercv
The above three tables have the same number of records and they are equal in size for eg, at one point they were 1.5 gb each amounting to total 5 gb out which the actual user created tables, indexes, sp amount to only 500 Mb.
There were some post in other forums that suggested to use triggers to close the open conversations and also use END CONVERSATIONS in the code. We have used that solution also but doesn't seem to solve the problem.
Is there a definite solution from microsoft for this issue.
Anybody has any insight to this. Thanks for your help in advance.
How to prevent the hang on the initator service broker if the target service broker is not started?
Our case has two service brokers (two databases), sometime, the target is need to turn off. But the sitation is the initator service broker (in fact, the message is sent from triggers) become hang, I want to prevent this case and continue to operation, and the messages should queue and will continue to send to target service broker when it startup. How should I do?
Hello, I receive this error "The SQL Server Service Broker for the current database is not enabled, and as a result query notifications are not supported.

Hope you could help. cheers,imperialx
I am struggling with the position SSB could take in an SOA. If I would want a broker in the general sense, meaning an intermediary sitting between applications which exchange information through messaging, would SSB be a good candidate? I know Biztalk is probably the primary candidate, but in my scenario I would end up with Biztalk apps with empty orchestrations. Also, I think Biztalk is more expensive to manage. So I am looking for a lightweight broker for a simple SOA targeted at application interoperability, no fancy business processes in sight.
I am trying to send a message between to SQL Server 2005 instances on two different machines. I have checked all my routes and all my objects appear to be setup correctly. However, when running Profiler on the target machine, I receive the "This message has been dropped because the TO service could not be found. Service name: "[tcp://mydomain.com/TARGET/MyService]". Message origin: "Transport". This is my activated stored procedure that is sending the message to the target service. I am using certificate security. Any help appreciated....

I have a service that depends on SQL Server service. Basically we make sure that our service only starts after SQL server service started. Unfortunately this dependency does not ensure that database is available.
Basically I observed in Application log that SQL server reports that it started to listen on a port. And then I see that recovery process started. As I understand SQL server is not available while database is in the recovery state.
Note: I might have not used a correct terminology to describe SQL server recovery process as I don't have access to Application log with the exact message at the moment. I can verify the message if necessary.
Because SQL server service is started our service starts and attempts to connect to the database. Service fails to connect to database, because of the restoration process. Once restoration is done service connects successfully.
I observed that restoration process starts every time machine is rebooted. It only takes a few minutes to run, but it is enough to generate a number of error messages in event log about failed SQL connections.
My first question is: Is it normal for database to enter into recovery state every time machine is rebooted?
My second question is: If it is a normal operation, is there any way to detect that SQL server is truly available, so our code does not have to try retry establishing connection many times
I have a problem that looks like it has not been discussed before inthese groups.I have a simple SQLAgent job that runs sp_who (could be anything, butlet's just say sp_who for this example). I have set the jobstep towrite to an output file "T:out.txt". If the job is owned by anadmin, it runs fine and writes the output file. If it is owned by anon-admin user, it gets the following error msg:Warning: cannot write logfile t:out.txt. Error 1059 : Circularservice dependency was specified. The step failed.I know about setting up the SQLAgent CMDExec proxy account, and havedone that. In fact, both SQLAgent and the SQLAgent cmdexec proxy usethe same domain account, which is in the administrator group of thelocal server. So, I know that security is not the issue.When a simple job runs and writes to an output file, what service orservice group could it be trying to start or modify? I looked throughthe list of Services, and could not find any circular dependencies.Is there a utility to detect this? Why would running under onecontext (as an admin) be ok while the other context (non-admin on SQL,but using the same admin domain service account) fails?Thanks in advance for any info you might have.
I am doing some research to see if the Service Broker technology would help my company with our Enterprise application. Here is our scenario: We have a 3 tier system. The first tier needs to contact the second tier asynchronously. Hence, using queues is a good option. However, the process that needs to happen on the second tier is mostly process intensive with little database updates. Is it still worth our time to use Service Broker?
I like the concept of Activation that Service Broker provides. But, from what I am reading most of the documentation describes activation as a way to call another stored proc. I definitely dont' want to do any process intensive work on the SQL server. So here comes my question...
How would I use a windows service to listen to the activation event from the Service Broker. I could have multiple windows services watching the same queue (scalable). Would I have to handle collisions myself? If so, I think I would rather keep it simple, and just use a simple table as my queue.
Hi to all, I want to study Sql server Service broker, have some questions1. What is the use of service broker ?2. Where this will use ? (With example)3. How to enable Service broker? Because i have sql server 2005 version but no folder like service broker.
Im having a hard time understanding everything required to create a simple Service Broker example. Can someone please assist? Source code would be ideal, but if not "do this, do that" would even be helpful.
I am trying to implement service broker. I send a message from my application code to the database to execute a specific stored procedure. How do i return the result set obtained by the execution of the stored procedure to the application.
My service broker seems to be broken... The database was restored from another crashed server but i have tried the
ALTER AUTHORIZATION ON DATABASE::[SPYDERONTHEWEB] TO [SA];
The error i'm getting is
Service Broker needs to access the master key in the database 'SpyderOnTheWeb'. Error code 25. The master key has to exist and th service master key encryption is required.
It will be great to have an update on MS plans to solve the problem of using Service Broker for remote users who sit behind the NAT. Any news will be appreciated.
Hello , I am trying to Implement distribution of the Stock Quotes over the LAN(only within the Network) and showing the live changing stock Quotes on the front end (in datagrid) installed at each clients desktop.I am receiving the Stock prices over the TCP / IP from the Stock Exchange. I am recieving atleast 10-15 messages per second over the TCP / IP from the Stock Exchange. Now i need to distribute this feed to Each connected client.
I tried doing it from TCP / IP , but in vein. Can we install the SQL 2005 Database Client Version on every client and use Service broker instaed of Live TCP / IP connections programmatically?
Ideally Can i dump the meesages from Stock Exchange in to each connected client's database locally and each front end application will keep a record of all the incomming messages.i.e Front end have a notification event , it will referesh the Datagrid in Front end accordingly...
Is it possible to develop Service Broker in .Net 1.1 (VS 2003)? Currently I have a project developed in .Net 1.1 and I want to add a new method utilize the message queue concept (instead of using MSMQ, using Service Broker SQL 2005), although my DB is SQL server 2005.
I am looking at the Service Broker as a way to notify multiple clients that there has been data changed on a table in the shared database. These clients may or may not be online. When there is a change, the notification should fire off a query to refresh the clients local cache. Is this a situation where Service Broker would help me? Can multiple clients recieve the notification at different times ( some recieve while online, some recieve when they come back online)? Any help on this would be appreciated. It seems from what I read that the messages are pulled off the queue when a notification has taken place. Is this correct? If so, can I set it to behave differently?
Let's assume the situation: we have Initiator and Target. Target is behind ISP's NAT and can't be published outside. So, when Initiator sends a message to Target, Target will not be able to establish a backward connection and will not send an acknowledge. Initiator will retry and retry...
I have tried the following, each runs successfully with no error, but nothing is in the queues, what can be the issue? CREATE MESSAGE TYPE SentMsgType VALIDATION = WELL_FORMED_XML;

CREATE QUEUE ReceivedQueue WITH STATUS=ON, RETENTION=OFF;

So SQLDependencies failed to do what I wanted them to do for my Cache Invalidating, so i'm going to humor another possibility for a half day - Triggers on my database table that communicate messages to my C# inside my ASP.NET App. Any advice on how to tap into a message queue with C#? I'm thinking that my messages could be 1 of about 100 different strings as far as what occurred on the Database Tables
We have a customer whos database just grows and grows. Not the customers own tables, but the:
sys.sysconvgroup sys.sysdesend sys.sysdercv
And these tables are linked to the Service Broker, and according to http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms179503.aspx these tables exists in every database and are used by the Service Broker.
Now to my questions =)
HOW do I delete rows from these tables? How come these tables hust grows and grows, could it be any setting in the SQL 2005 Server or is it the customer who has programmed his application wrong?
I'm in the process of doing the initial research for the architecture of a large scale, transactional messages routing platform.
My initial design called for a series of MSMQ queues and Windows Services, written in C#, to process the messages in these queues. There will be incoming and outgoing queues, queues to store unroutable messages, etc.
My application will be routing many hundreds of thousands (and eventually millions) of messages per day. These message are very small (< 200 bytes each) and must be routed very quickly. (<1 second processing overhead per message for high priority messages.)
Using the term "routing" may be a bit misleading. The messages arrive via TCP socket connections. I will just need to take in a message, examine its intended destination, and send it to one of several outgoing socket connections, likely on different machines. Some messages require higher priority routing than others, but I don't need multi-hop routing or anything like that.
Of great concern to me is that there are absolutely no single points of failure in the system. Because of this I was considering using a combination of MSMQ and Windows Services in a Clustered environment.
Can the Service Broker provide me with this kind of functionality? If so, how well does it perform and scale? Is it a better choice for messaging applications that require high transactional throughput than MSMQ?
I'm just trying to get an idea of what products/services I should look into further.
i'm new with service broker and need to develop mail site to send mass email and decide to use sevice broker i'm make aqueue ,sevice and all function for run service borker and creat databasie mail profile

thanks very mcuh for every one read my request and response to me thanks very mcuh
I am new to service broker and would like a little help please. I have a SP which gathers information from a collection of tables. Depending on the data gathered it may or may not begin a dialog conversation with a service broker queue. What i'm needing to know is should at the end of the SP once the required message has been sent should i end the conversation or not?
Hi, in the development env. I created the 2 dbs used by service brokers, the service brokers objects (messages, queues etc...).
The schema applied to tables and Activation SP is [dbo] and also the queues are executed as [dbo].
Everything works fine!Cool!
Now that we have to deploy evertything on production I would like that the service broker conversation runs using a specif user ( in this way when I log the Service Broker's errot in the event log I see this specific user and not my name)
Which kind of permission I have to give to this the user .. it is enought that I assign to it the schema DBO or I have to change the definition of my queues( execute as '[dbo]') or to create a new schema?
I'm not able to get Service Broker to work. I've created the following sample and would excpect to get some data from "PreisanfrageQueue" or "PreisanfrageRequestorQueue". But both they are emtpy.
What do I do wrong?
Regards,
Manfred

I am trying to use SSI Sto receive messages from a Service Broker Queue and continue to have difficulty doing so.
I have come to the point where I need to get the messages that share a conversation with this BatchEnd message type before I get any other messages, as this message type tells me information about how many others there are.
I built this script and ran it in management studio with success and felt it should work for me running as the sql for an OLE DB source.
But SSIS constantly complains about it. I finally profiled SSIS to catch the sql that it is executing. It is below and this fails with an error about a missing conversation_handle.
Now I'm not sure which team may own this, but shouldn't this sp_prepare work. If I change this to use a table variable then the prepare seems to work just fine, but then I never actually get any data back into SSIS. It is almost like it calls it twice; although, I could not confirm that with profiler.
I'll cross post this in the Service Broker forum too.
I am trying to run the Readme_HelloWorld sample on the SQL server 2005 Books online. But don't know where I can get the setup.sql, SendMessage.sql, ReceiveMessage.sql scripts.
I followed two examples on the blog, but they did not work at all. Here are the scripts:
/* example 1 */ create database TestSB go use TestSB go create queue TxQ create queue RxQ create message type Msg create contract MsgContract(Msg SENT BY ANY) create service TxSve on Queue TxQ Create service RxSve on Queue RxQ declare @h uniqueidentifier begin dialog conversation @h from service TxSve to Service 'RxSve' on contract MsgContract; send on conversation @h Message type Msg ('<hello>World</hello>') end conversation @h with CLEANUP;
select * from RxQ
/* example 2 */ use testsb go
create message type HelloMessage validation = NONE go
/** 2. create contract **/ create contract HelloContract (HelloMessage SENT by initiator)
begin begin transaction; begin dialog conversation @handle from service sender to service 'receiver' on contract HelloContract set @message = N'Hello, World'; send on conversation @handle message type HelloMessage(@message) end conversation @handle commit transaction end go
Receive convert(nvarchar(max), message_body) as message1 from ReceiverQueue
select convert(nvarchar(max), message_body) as message1 from ReceiverQueue
select * from SenderQueue
select * from Receiverqueue
Any assistance or WORKING samples are greatly appreciated.
I want to use Service Broker and SSIS in a integration project where the queue contains Xml data and the SSIS package processes and sends it to a destination. What is a good way to do this? Is it possible for the queue to execute the package with the data as a parameter, or what is good practise when combining this techniques? I am not familiar with Service Broker so i don´t know what you can do with it when data are loaded in it.
Would be grateful for some hints to put me in a good direction..
I want to use Service Broker to drop some SQL from a loop in SSIS task into a Service Broker queue. Can anyone point me in the right direction, examples, samples?
I have an ExecuteSQL task which returns a set of tablenames, which will be iterated to, and I want to send an EXEC mySP 'myTable' to Service Broker, to asynchronously execute. I have created a queue and a service, but I'm not sure what the next step is to join the two together.
I implemented query notification using SqlDependency(). Normally, it works well. But once or twice a day, I noticed following messages in the event viewer. When that happens, my application does not a notification when there is changes in the database table:
Service Broker needs to access the master key in the database 'MyDb'. Error code:25. The master key has to exist and the service master key encryption is required.
The query notification dialog on conversation handle '{9FAEDFF0-4A61-DC11-9C99-000C2955F097}.' closed due to the following error: '<?xml version="1.0"?><Error xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/SQL/ServiceBroker/Error"><Code>-8490</Code><Description>Cannot find the remote service 'SqlQueryNotificationService-a6d061ab-d89d-4735-91ee-8fdc7f9621f7' because it does not exist.</Description></Error>'.
The query notification dialog on conversation handle '{62316FAB-4A61-DC11-9C99-000C2955F097}.' closed due to the following error: '<?xml version="1.0"?><Error xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/SQL/ServiceBroker/Error"><Code>-8470</Code><Description>Remote service has been dropped.</Description></Error>'.
I have a logic in my code that after 30 minutes of silence, it re-establish the connection by re-instantiating SqlDependency and it works okay from that point on. From that observation, it seems that query notification works in general but SQL server occasionaly throws an exception, it seems. Also my code did not get SqlNotificationInfo.Error when that error occurs.
