I've got a stored procedure which does a database search for me. It is working fine, but for some reason it isn't finding what I expect. I think the problem is that the vairables are not being passed as I expect but I cannot work out how to see the intermediate SQL in the stored proc... in oracle there used to be some sort of set feedback on option which meant that all SQL which was being run was shown... is there some way of doing this in SQL Server 2005?
I am trying to debug stored procedure using visual studio. I right click on connection and checked 'Allow SQL/CLR debugging' .. the store procedure is not local and is on sql server.
Whenever I tried to right click stored procedure and select step into store procedure> i get following error
"User 'Unknown user' could not execute stored procedure 'master.dbo.sp_enable_sql_debug' on SQL server XXXXX. Click Help for more information"
I am not sure what needs to be done on sql server side
We tried to search for sp_enable_sql_debug but I could not find this stored procedure under master.
Some web page I came accross says that "I must have an administratorial rights to debug" but I am not sure what does that mean?
I'm using SQL Server 2005 Express and I need to debug my stored prodedure. I've been reading online that it can be done in the Express edition but no one explains how to do it. There's plenty of instructions online on how to debug stored procedure in the other versions of SQL Server 2005. Do any of you know how to do it?
In VS 2005 with SQL Server Express: How do I debug a stored procedure that is called from a object datasource control while the asp.net code is running? Thanks
I am not sure if this thread needs to go into this forum or there is one for C# stored procedures/CLR Database Objects.
To All:
Is this a known issue that when debugging CLR stored procedures the VS 2005 freezes even before reaching into the stored procedure? I can restart my computer and debugging works for a while and then it starts to take forever when I step into (F10) during debugging. I am running only one instance of sql server, and even that of my local machine as I have never been able to debug on a remote server.
This random and unstable behavior of the debugger is proving very unproductive and costly. Is there a microsoft update/fix/patch to make debugging CLR stored procedures a smooth process?
Hi ,I am using Visual studio 2005 with sql server 2005. I want to debug my stored procedure, which is situated on the server on the network(accessible through network share). I followed the following URL: http://aspnet.4guysfromrolla.com/articles/051607-1.aspxI have used Direct database debugging : When I right click my stored procedure and click 'step into stored procedure', I get the following error: "Unable to start T-SQL debugging. could not attach to SQL server process on 'sql_server_name'. The remote procedure call failed and did not execute" I am using windows authentication to login to sql server Any help?
I need help debugging a CLR stored procedure that is being called from an SSIS package. I can debug the procedure itself from within Visual Studio by using "Step into stored procedure" from Server Explorer, but really need to debug it as it is being called from SSIS.

Can anybody explain how to do debug a stored procedure from SQL Query Analyser.
When i tried opening Query Analyser and pressing F8 i am able to see Object Browser on left side, i selected the d/b and expanded it then i selected a stored procdure by right click of mouse. I selected "Debug".
It shows me alert msg "SQL Debugging may not work properly if you log on as 'Local System Account' while SQl server is configured to run as a service. You can open Event Viewer to see details." DO U WISH TO CONTINUE- I selected "YES"
I am able to see 3 split windows on right side and GO, Toggle, Untoggle are enabled BUT Step Into, Step Over, Step Out...Stop debugging are disabled at menu bar.
The 1st right split window shows the proc code, 2nd split window shows Local-Global-Callstack none of them shows any values(blank), 3rd split window shows records(result) and @RETURN_VALUE = 0 message
I had Toggled at each and every line of the procedure in 1st split window still it doesnt respond anything.
What might be the problem, how to solve it do i need to give any permissions.
i tried logging from wind Authentication and also from Sql Authentication (sa/sa), still same problem occurs. By the way i am using SQL Server 2000.
Hi all, I wanted to ask...if there is someone who worked with pl/sql developer as well...then i wanted to know how can i TEST in the sql server like we do in the PL/SQL developer using the STEP IN we can test our procedure step by step...so how can i do the same thing in sql server????? or generally also,if someone knows how can i execute a procedure without using the execute command...so,that i can put values first by using like EXECUTE STORED PROCEDURE or anything n then watching it how is it going step by step???????? thanks in advance...
I have a very simple piece of code (see below) which when executed sometimes takes around 7 minutes and sometimes around 3.5 hours. the difference is that during the 3.5 hours there is a lot of querying of the table being updated. But I don't know how to find out if this is the case. How can I find out whether my process is waiting (for locks or for any other reason) - is there a trace or debug facility within the tandard Microsoft Toolset which I can use.
Regards Colin
Problem code below =============== print 'Updating stm_brnline - Start time is ' + convert(char(25),getdate(),113) -- update m set m.branchpgrade = s.branchgrade from stm_brnline m, tmp_brngrades s where m.traddiv = s.traddiv and m.contcode = s.contcode and m.merchsect = s.merchsect and m.branch = s.branchcode -- print 'Updating stm_brnline - End time is ' + convert(char(25),getdate(),113)
I have a stoere procedure which I suspect has sometimes strange behaviour. What I would like to do in order to catch what is going wrong, is at each desired statement of my procedure to verify value of some variables.. In .Net, idea is to log in files durring application is running. What is the approch to do that with SQL ? any loggin ?
I have found that when I'm debugging a custom component in BIDS that I've created in another instance of Visual Studio, every time I rebuild the component I have to shutdown and restart BIDS and then reattach to the BIDS process. Which is pretty time consuming... And if I find a small error in my custom component when debugging then I don't seem to be allowed to make any changes to the code unless I stop debugging and go through the process above.
Am I missing something here? Or do I really have to manually go through these steps every time I want to change code in the component I'm debugging?
Can I automate the process with MSBuild or NAnt? If so, is there an example of this anywhere?
1) I open the stored proc in Visual studio IDE 2)Enable the SQL debugging with right click the project---->configuration--> check SQL debugging 3)Put the breakpoint on sp 4) when I click on step into(F11) sp , it throws the message that sp_debug requires access permissionswhere to set this?
Hello, I have tried to use the debug feature in query analyzer to debug a stored procedure but it doesn't work. I have done the simple task of selecting the sp in the object browser, right clicking it and selecting debug. I supply the parameter and click execute. Next, I apply a breakpoint to a SELECT statement and then click go. The sp just goes without stopping at the breakpoint; it doesn't even show the yellow arrow on where it is supposed to go next. Am I missing something? Do I need a patch? The version I am running is 8.00.194. If anyone can give me direction, I would appreciate it.
Hello,I am doing a lot of work with stored procedures at work now and am wonderingif there is a way that I can step through the code line by line and setbreakpoints on it like I do in VB/VBA to test variables/parameters.Regards,Jayne
I have complete error handling and printing the error after every insert or update statements or after calling another procedure.
But somehow when executing the proc it is not printing the error.
The query analyzer shows a general message 'Query batch completed with errors'
All the logic seems to be working properly, but this message is bothering me. Why is this message displayed if everything is run correctly [or] is something wrong ?
I don't see the option to debug a stored procedure. I right click on the procedure and should'nt it appear in the properties window. Do I need to install some extra component to get the debugger.
I understand that there has been some dscussion on the subject of debugging T-SQL stored procedures. Can you point me to this information? I am not interested in how to debug CLR stored procedures as that is well documented. Thanks
It is impossible for me to debug any stored procedures. I use MSSQL Server 2005 and Visual Studio 2005. I can open procedure's body in VS, launch it, but when I choose "Step into stored procedure", I get the following error message:
"Unable to start program 'MSSQL:://localhost/my_db/dbo/=34353453453'. The system cannot find the file specified."
My OS is WinXP x64, and SQL Server is also x64, but I tried it on a 32-bit machine with the same result. What am I missing? Thanks for any help.
Running SQL Server Express is there a way to debug TSQL stored procedures? I also have Visual Studio .NET 2003, can I use it to debug the TSQL stored procedures?
I've followed the steps in http://www.sqlteam.com/article/debugging-stored-procedures-in-visual-studio-2005 & in the MSDN for configuring and setting up debugging SQL 2005 stored procedures in VS 2008 (seems to be the same as in VS 2005). Everything works fine until I Step Into the Stored Procedure. Everything says that a yellow arrow will appear on the left and I can start going line by line. I never get the yellow arrow.
If I set a breakpoint, it is automatically disabled. The pop-up warning says, "The breakpoint will not currently be hit. Unable to bind SQL breakpoint at this time. Object containing the breakpoint not loaded." I can't find anything about this message or problem on Microsoft's site or on the web. Any assistance is appreciated.
P.S. I'm running VS 2008 Professional Edition Version 9.0.2.1022.8 RTM
my username is selevalencia, I had before the database on my machine, but as now we have a server I backed up the database and restored on the server, it seems that it has the sames logins and security users,
Its strange because the user dbo is assigned the user selevalencia on the server, and I cant alter the user dbo.
The user dbo should be the login sa?? I am in big trouble with this, beacuase I cant debug my sql clr stored procedure.
T-Sql execution ended without debugging. You may have not have sufficient permissions to debug.
I am using a connection with windows authentication, so it means that its sending tha tokes as selevalencia to the server.
Please feel free to ask for more information about it. Thanks
Hi, I used to be able to debug stored procedures via Visual Studio.net 2003. However, this has stopped working. It does not produce an error just simply doesn't work anymore i.e. the breakpoints are by-passed. I have the correct settings in the Debug configuration section. If any-one knows how to rectify this your help would be appreciated. I have thought about re-installing the remote debugging functionality on the server. However, our Visual Studio.net discs are with a developer who is away at present.
I have an extremely annoying problem when debugging stored procedures in SQL Server 2014 with SSDT or SSMS. When calling a SP thru EXECUTE in Debug mode, 9 out of 10 SPs are traced with a wrong yellow arrow-pointer to the line currently reached.
The offset is between 6 to 15 lines downward. Tracing itself and update of the "Locals"-view works as expected. All SPs contain comments also before the Create Procedure statement. The SP shown when tracing show exactly the same content as the stored SQL in the SSDT project under work incl. Create procedure and all comments.
The picture here show the first line selected after the debugger has traced into the SP. The first line really executed with "Next" will be SET NOCOUNT ON.
If this does not turns out as my fault and some of you would support that, I would like to post this to SQL Connect.
Hi all - I'm trying to optimized my stored procedures to be a bit easier to maintain, and am sure this is possible, not am very unclear on the syntax to doing this correctly. For example, I have a simple stored procedure that takes a string as a parameter, and returns its resolved index that corresponds to a record in my database. ie exec dbo.DeriveStatusID 'Created' returns an int value as 1 (performed by "SELECT statusID FROM statusList WHERE statusName= 'Created') but I also have a second stored procedure that needs to make reference to this procedure first, in order to resolve an id - ie: exec dbo.AddProduct_Insert 'widget1' which currently performs:SET @statusID = (SELECT statusID FROM statusList WHERE statusName='Created')INSERT INTO Products (productname, statusID) VALUES (''widget1', @statusID) I want to simply the insert to perform (in one sproc): SET @statusID = EXEC deriveStatusID ('Created')INSERT INTO Products (productname, statusID) VALUES (''widget1', @statusID) This works fine if I call this stored procedure in code first, then pass it to the second stored procedure, but NOT if it is reference in the second stored procedure directly (I end up with an empty value for @statusID in this example). My actual "Insert" stored procedures are far more complicated, but I am working towards lightening the business logic in my application ( it shouldn't have to pre-vet the data prior to executing a valid insert). Hopefully this makes some sense - it doesn't seem right to me that this is impossible, and am fairly sure I'm just missing some simple syntax - can anyone assist?

More Information for you to know: I have the "ssmsExpressDB" database in the Database Expolorer of VB 2005 Express. But I do not know how to get the SqlConnection and the SqlDataAdapter into the Form1. I do not know how to get the Fill Method implemented properly. I try to learn "Working with SELECT Statement in a Stored Procedure" for printing the 6 rows that are selected - they are not parameterized.
