TOP Solves Infinite Query ???

Oct 9, 2007

Hi There

I have a query that runs every night. It has been fine for months. Yesterday it started to run infinately.

When i execute it it never returns.

BUT when i add a top clause to othe query it works, now in my experience this normally happens because you are now eliminating the "bad" row with the top clause, so the join that causes it to run infinately now never occurs.

HOWEVER i run the exact query with a TOP 730 cluase and it only return 720 rows, so i am not eliminating any rows ?

Basically i have a query that runs infinately but if i add a top clause that does eliminate any rows it works ?

But if i increase the top cluase to 800 it runs inifnatley again, but it only returns 720 rows ?

I am stumped, can anyone shed some light on this please.


Thanx

Infinite Recursive?

Nov 24, 1999

Hey there, Hopefully someone has a sec to help me out. I have a pretty tough query here for ya.

I want to turn this:

Parent | Child
Fred | Mark
John | Cindy
Mark | John
John | Suzy

into this:

Ancestor | Level | Descendant
Fred | 1 | Mark
Fred | 2 | John
Fred | 3 | Cindy
Fred | 3 | Suzy
Mark | 1 | John
Mark | 2 | Cindy
Mark | 2 | Suzy
John | 1 | Cindy
John | 1 | Suzy

I want to do this in a single select statement. No loops or cursors. Please tell me you are as stumped as I am so that I don't feel so dumb.

Thanks,

What Exactly Is Infinite Clickthrough?

Nov 1, 2007

Another thread (http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2347749&SiteID=1) got me wondering: what exactly is this "infinite clickthrough" feature that SSRS Enterprise Edition has? Searching for "infinite clickthrough" yields little but frustration - nearly all of the hits are merely pages explaining that Enterprise Edition has it and the other editions don't, without ever describing what exactly it is.

Near as I can tell, "infinite clickthrough" refers to a feature of ReportBuilder when used in conjunction with Report Models on SSRS Enterprise whereby ReportBuilder will synthesize a clickthrough report on the fly, and has nothing to do with the ability to build "clickthrough" reports using links (the "Navigation" tab on the Properties of most any reporting services object).

Infinite Loop In BOL Code!?

Apr 15, 2004

This code is from BOL (in index type: "DDLs-SQL Server"):
Take a look at error handling .. what happens if one of the three cmd.execute within the [Done:] hanlde fails?

It looks to me like we would have an infinite loop! .. am I missing something here?

BOL CODE EXAMPLE:
-----------------------------
Dim Cn As New ADODB.Connection
Dim Cmd As New ADODB.Command

' If the ADOTestTable does not exist, go to AdoError.
On Error GoTo AdoError

' Connect using the SQLOLEDB provider.
cn.Provider = "sqloledb"
cn.Properties("Data Source").Value = "MyServerName"
cn.Properties("Initial Catalog").Value = "northwind"
cn.Properties("Integrated Security").Value = "SSPI"
cn.Open

' Set up command object.
Set Cmd.ActiveConnection = Cn
Cmd.CommandText = "DROP TABLE ADOTestTable"
Cmd.CommandType = adCmdText
Cmd.Execute

Done:
Cmd.CommandText = "SET NOCOUNT ON"
Cmd.Execute
Cmd.CommandText = "CREATE TABLE ADOTestTable (id int, name char(100))"
Cmd.Execute
Cmd.CommandText = "INSERT INTO ADOTestTable values(1, 'Jane Doe')"
Cmd.Execute
Cn.Close
Exit Sub

AdoError:
Dim errLoop As Error

Infinite Loop In Cursor

Jul 5, 2006

Hi

I have an infinite loop in a trigger I and I cant reslove it.

In my system the user updates a stock table from the GUI and on the update I need to check values to see if I need to add records to a StockHistory table.  For Example:  If the user changes the grade of Product X from A to B then I need to add a new line in StockHistory for product X grade A that decrements the total number of products in the warehouse.  Similary I need to increase the quantity of stock for Product X grade B.

I had the trigger working for single updates but now when stock is added to the database (from another db) it has status of 'New'.  This isn't actually 'in stock' until the user sets the status to 'Goods In'.  This process will then update the status for all records in the category.  This caused my trigger to fail as the 'inserted' table now contains many records.

Now the problem I have is the trigger is in an infinite loop. It always shows the id of the first record it finds and the @Quantity values increases as expected.  I've taken all my procesing code out of the trigger and adding some debugging stuff but it still doesnt work:

CREATE TRIGGER [StockReturns_on_change] ON [dbo].[StockReturns]
FOR UPDATE
AS

DECLARE INDIVIDUAL Cursor --- Cursor for all the rows being updated

FOR
SELECT Id FROM inserted

OPEN INDIVIDUAL

FETCH NEXT FROM INDIVIDUAL INTO @Id

select @Quantity = 1

print @@FETCH_STATUS
print @Id
print @Quantity

WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0
begin 

select @Quantity = @Quantity + 1

print @@FETCH_STATUS
print @Id
print @Quantity

-- Get the next row from the inserted table
FETCH NEXT FROM INDIVIDUAL INTO @Id

End  -- While loop on the cursor

-- no close off the cursors
CLOSE INDIVIDUAL
DEALLOCATE INDIVIDUAL





Can you help me please?

Kind Regards

Cursor Causing Infinite Loop

Dec 13, 2007

Hi i have a cursor in a Stored Procedure. The problem is that it's poiting to the first row and causing an infinite loop on it.
How can i stop this and make it go to all rows. Here is my code.

Declare @CountTSCourtesy int
Declare @WaiterName nvarchar(100), @CursorRestaurantName nvarchar (100)
Declare waiter_cursor CURSOR FOR

SELECT new_waiteridname, new_restaurantname
FROM dbo.FilteredNew_CommentCard
Where new_dateofvisit between @FromDate and @ToDate and new_restaurantname = @Restaurant
Open waiter_cursor
FETCH NEXT FROM waiter_cursor
into @WaiterName,@CursorRestaurantName
While @@FETCH_STATUS=0

BEGIN
Exec WaitersCountExCourtesy @WaiterName,@CursorRestaurantName

END
Close waiter_cursor
Deallocate waiter_cursor
END


Thanks in advance...

DB Engine :: Infinite Recursive Trigger

May 28, 2015

I have a after update trigger that calculates one of the columns based on other column values. It has to be a trigger and only fires an update statement against the table itself when the column has changed.  At a simple level it is doing something similar to the code below

IF UPDATE(Col1)
update MyTable SET Col2 = Col1 WHERE Col2 <> Col1

It works everywhere except on one site where the trigger causes itself to recurse until it reaches the 32 level error. It can be fixed by checking whether there and any records in the inserted table at the top. Like so.

IF EXISTS (SELECT * FROM inserted)
begin
IF UPDATE(Col1)
update MyTable SET Col2 = Col1 WHERE Col2 <> Col1
end

However, I would like to know whether there is some system setting other than "nested triggers" that I am missing that would cause the behaviour.

Could you figured why this happen?? I've already tried to upgrade into SP2 and set the package protection level and still not get good result from it. thank you.

Error: 8624 Internal Query Processor Error: The Query Processor Could Not Produce A Query Plan.

May 24, 2007

SQL Server 2005 9.0.3161 on Win 2k3 R2



I receive the following error:



"Error: 8624, Severity: 16, State: 1 Internal Query Processor Error: The query processor could not produce a query plan. For more information, contact Customer Support Services."



I have traced this to an insert statement that executes as part of a stored procedure.



INSERT INTO ledger (journal__id, account__id,account_recv_info__id,amount)

VALUES (@journal_id, @acct_id, @acct_recv_id, @amount)



There is also an auto-increment column called id. There are FK contraints on all of the columns ending in "__id". I have found that if I remove the contraint on account__id the procedure will execute without error. None of the other constraints seem to make a difference. Of course I don't want to remove this key because it is important to the database integrity and should not be causing problems, but apparently it confuses the optimizer.



Also, the strange thing is that I can get the procedure to execute without error when I run it directly through management studio, but I receive the error when executing from .NET code or anything using ODBC (Access).

SQL Server 2012 :: Adding Count To Query Without Duplicating Original Select Query

Aug 5, 2014

I have the following code.

SELECT _bvSerialMasterFull.SerialNumber, _bvSerialMasterFull.SNStockLink, _bvSerialMasterFull.SNDateLMove, _bvSerialMasterFull.CurrentLoc,
_bvSerialMasterFull.CurrentAccLink, _bvSerialMasterFull.StockCode, _bvSerialMasterFull.CurrentAccount, _bvSerialMasterFull.CurrentLocationDesc,
_bvSerialNumbersFull.SNTxDate, _bvSerialNumbersFull.SNTxReference, _bvSerialNumbersFull.SNTrCodeID, _bvSerialNumbersFull.SNTransType,
_bvSerialNumbersFull.SNWarehouseID, _bvSerialNumbersFull.TransAccount, _bvSerialNumbersFull.TransTypeDesc,

[code]...

However, as you can see, the original select query is run twice and joined together.What I was hoping for is this to be done in the original query without the need to duplicate the original query.

SQL Server 2012 :: How To Pull Value Of Query And Not Value Of Variable When Query Using Select Top 1 Value From Table

Query Fails With Invalid Column Name But Succeed As Sub-query With Unexpected Results

Sep 22, 2015

-- The 3rd query uses an incorrect column name in a sub-query and succeeds but rows are incorrectly qualified. This is very DANGEROUS!!!
-- The issue exists is in 2008 R2, 2012 and 2014 and is "By Design"

set nocount on
go
if object_id('tempdb.dbo.#t1') IS NOT NULL drop table #t1
if object_id('tempdb.dbo

[code]....

This succeeds when the invalid column name is a valid column name in the outer query. So in this situation the sub-query would fail when run by itself but succeed with an incorrectly applied filter when run as a sub-query. The danger here is that if a SQL Server user runs DML in a production database with such a sub-query which then the results are likely not the expected results with potentially unintended actions applied against the data. how many SQL Server users have had incorrectly applied DML or incorrect query results and don't even know it....?

Why The Query Works In Query Analyser And Doesn't Work In Reporting Service ?

Apr 30, 2007



Hello everybody,



I'm developing a report using the following structure :



declare @sql as nvarchar(4000)

declare @where as nvarchar(2000)



set @sql = 'select ....'



If <conditional1>

begin

set @where = 'some where'

end



If <conditional2>

begin

set @where = 'some where'

end



set @sql = @sql + @where



exec(@sql)



I run it in query analyser and works fine, but when I try to run in Reporting Services, Visual studio stops responding and the cpu reaches 100 %.



I realize that when I cut off the if clauses, then it works at Reporting services.

Does anybody know what is happening?

Why the query works in query analyser and doesn't work in Reporting Service ?



Thanks,



Maurício

SQL Server Admin 2014 :: Estimated Query Plan For A Stored Procedure With Multiple Query Statements

Oct 30, 2015

When viewing an estimated query plan for a stored procedure with multiple query statements, two things stand out to me and I wanted to get confirmation if I'm correct.

1. Under <ParameterList><ColumnReference... does the xml attribute "ParameterCompiledValue" represent the value used when the query plan was generated?

<ParameterList>
<ColumnReference Column="@Measure" ParameterCompiledValue="'all'" />
</ParameterList>
</QueryPlan>
</StmtSimple>

2. Does each query statement that makes up the execution plan for the stored procedure have it's own execution plan? And meaning the stored procedure is made up of multiple query plans that could have been generated at a different time to another part of that stored procedure?

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////
I executed the code successfully and I got a box which asked for "Enter the query string".
I typed in the following: EXEC dbo.SalesByCategory @Seafood. I got the following box: Query attempt failed. Must declare the scalar variable "@Seafood". I am learning how to enter the string for the "SQL query programed in the subQuery_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As EventArgs) Handles btnQuery.Click" (see the code statements listed above). Please help and tell me what I missed and what I should put into the query string to get the information of the "Seafood" category out.

Thanks in advance,

SP To Perform Query Based On Multiple Rows From Another Query's Result Set

Nov 7, 2007

I have two tables .. in one (containing user data, lets call it u).The important fields are:u.userName, u.userID (uniqueidentifier) and u.workgroupID (uniqueidentifier)The second table (w) has fieldsw.delegateID (uniqueidentifier), w.workgroupID (uniqueidentifier) The SP takes the delegateID and I want to gather all the people from table u where any of the workgroupID's for that delegate match in w.  one delegateID may be tied to multiple workgroupID's. I know I can create a temporary table (@wgs) and do a: INSERT INTO @wgs SELECT workgroupID from w WHERE delegateID = @delegateIDthat creates a result set with all the workgroupID's .. this may be one, none or multipleI then want to get all u.userName, u.userID FROM u WHERE u.workgroupIDThis query works on an individual workgroupID (using another temp table, @users to aggregate the results was my thought, so that's included)         INSERT INTO @users             SELECT u.userName,u.userID                 FROM  tableU u                LEFT JOIN tableW w ON w.workgroupID = u.workgroupID                WHERE u.workgroupID = @workGroupIDI'm trying to avoid looping or using a CURSOR for the performance hit (had to kick the development server after one of the cursor attempts yesterday)Essentially what I'm after is:             SELECT u.userName,u.userID
                FROM  tableU u
                LEFT JOIN tableW w ON w.workgroupID = u.workgroupID
                WHERE u.workgroupID = (SELECT workgroupID from w WHERE delegateID = @delegateID) ... but that syntax does not work and I haven't found another work around yet.TIA!

Query Designer Encountered A Query Error Via Enterprise Manager

Jan 7, 2002

I am trying to run queries against any of the user tables in my MS SQL 7.0 database. I get a message the Query Designer encountered a query error.
We have tried rebooting the SQL Server and I am still getting these messages. Also, the SQL error logs look fine - all database

into production in a few days.

The Merge Process Failed To Execute A Query Because The Query Timed Out

2006-12-22 15:00:07.222 The merge process failed to execute a query because the query timed out. If this failure continues, increase the query timeout for the process. When troubleshooting, restart the synchronization with verbose history logging and specify an output file to which to write.
2006-12-22 15:00:07.456 Error converting data type nvarchar to numeric.
2006-12-22 15:00:07.800 Category:SQLSERVER

After manual syncronization it goes under control.

Could anybody explain the relationship between converting error and timed out query?

If this is poor connection's problem how can I increase the query timeout for the process?

SQL 2005 V9.0.2047 (SP1) - The Query Processor Could Not Produce A Query Plan

May 15, 2006

Hi Everyone:

*Before* I actually call up Microsoft SQL Customer Support Services and ask them, I wanted to ping other people to see if you have ever ran into this exact error

"Internal Query Processor Error: The query processor could not produce a query plan. For more information, contact Customer Support Services."

I would have searched the forums myself, but at this moment in time, search is broken :(

If anyone has run into this error before, what conditions would exist that this could happen? That is, if I can sniff this out with suggestions from the community, I would be happy to do so.

It is an oddity because if I alter a couple subqueries in the where clause [ i.e., where tab.Col = (select val from tab2 where id='122') ]to not have subqueries [hand coded values], then the t-sql result is fine. It's not as if subqueries are oddities... I've used them when appropriate.

fwiw - Not a newbie t-sql guy. ISV working almost daily with t-sql since MS SQL 2000. I have never seen this message before...at least I don't recall ever seeing it.

Thanks in advance for other suggested examination paths.

Prevent Query-Analizer From Caching The Query Execution?

Apr 11, 2008

Hi all I'm using Sql server 2000 and sometimes i need to run my Queries in Query analizer before using them in my application just to test them...BUT most of the time when i run a query in query-analizer for second time ,query analizer populates the result (records) more quicker then the first time. Apparently it caches the query !!! i don't know but for some reasons i dont't want this , so how can i prevent Query-analizer from doing so?
Thanks in advance. Regards.
