The Snapshot For This Publication Has Become Obsolete !
Nov 21, 2006
Hi,
I am in need of some help with this error - I am seeing on my PDA units. Here is my scenario:
I have 5 PDA units that use merge replication with SQL 2005. These PDA units replicate fine. But when I try to sync a 6th or 7th PDA unit, I see the following error:
Source : Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition - The snapshot for this publication has become obsolete. The snapshot agent needs to be run again before the subscription can be synchronized. -2147198698
I know that if I regenerate a new snapshot, I will be able to sync fine. But here are my concerns and questions:
What happens to the first 5 PDAs when I regenerate the a new snapshot.
Will they be able to sync without losing the data?
Does generating a new snapshot, relinitialize all the subscriptions?
Am I missing the whole picture with generating a new snapshot?
I recently had a problem with one of my publications that I haven't been able to figure out. Hopefully someone can help me with it.
I got this error last week: You must rerun snapshot because current snapshot files are obsolete. I assume this means the subscription needed to be re-initialized. Is this correct?
If so, I don't understand why. The publication was not changed. The subscription did not expire. The subscription was not marked for reinitialization.
Here are the specifics of my installation:
Merge publication with 1 pull subscription.
Subscriptions set to expire after 14 days.
Merge agent runs every day, every 5 minutes between 12:00:00A & 11:59:59P.
Snapshot agent was run once when publication was created and then disabled.
Publisher SQL ver: 2000 sp3
Publisher Win ver: 2003 sp1
Subscriber SQL ver: 2000 sp3
Subscriber Win ver: 2003 sp1
The subscription was successfully replicating every 5 minutes. The data for 12:35 shows the first problem. Here's the agent history at the time:
runstatus start_time comments error_id
1 5/23/07 12:25 Initializing 0
3 5/23/07 12:25 Connecting to Publisher 'AASTAUSSQL01' 0
When I am trying to synchronize my sql server ce database with sql server 2000, I am getting this error in the Replication Monitor and Synchronization gets fail.
How to Create initial snapshot or is there any step by step configuration document available for Merge Replication with SQL server 2000 and sql ce.
I have a unusual problem with a snapshot publication that I am having a hard time troubleshooting. The servers in question are all SQL 05 Enterprise. Here is the scenario:
Staging Server - This server acts as the publisher of the snapshot Production Server - This server is the subscriber of the staging snapshot Cascade Servers - These servers receive transactional updates from the production server
The staging server applies the snapshot to production successfully. From there the production server has a transactional publication which the subscribers are the cascade servers.
This model worked for a long time where we would generate the snapshot apply it to production and the updates would be sent to the cascade servers. All of a sudden there is a problem with the transactional publication from production -> cascade. There are 7-10 tables that do not receive the updates and all data in the problematic tables is truncated. The other remaining tables in the subscription receive the updates as needed. Looking at replication monitor and all other logs shows that the transactions are being replicated, but yet the 7-10 problematic tables do not contain any data. The only solution I have found for this is to recreate the entire replication model from scratch.
Any advice on how to handle this scenario? Is my model for using a transactional publication to cascade changes to a subset of servers incorrect?
I have been trying to set up transactional replication between an OLTP SQL Server 2005 Standard edition server and a BI SQL Server 2005 Enterprise edition server. I am using a pull subscription. I was able to establish the replication from the developement server to the BI server however when I tried setting up the replication between the production environment and the BI server, using the same configuration settings, I ran into a problem. The production server had been renamed after it was initially set up. I used the sp_dropserver and sp_addserver to solve this issue and was able to run the replication wizard. However once the wizard finishes the snapshot agent doesn't initialize the publication. When I look at the replication monitor it has a status of "never run". I try to run it manually and it appears to run for a few seconds then stops and still has the status of "never run". I don't get any error messages and can't find anything in the log. I am wondering if this is related to the server rename? I am hoping to find a soultion that doesn't involve uninstalling SQL Server and reinstalling since this is a production environment.
I have a merge publisher with Snapshot agent for that scheduled to run everyday morning, This was runnning till yesterday. But it is not running today and giving the below error.
Can anyone help me out to solve this error? This is occuring in production environment, i really need a solution as fast as possible.

I'm trying to setup merge replication and get the following error from the snapshot agent after I've finished the 'New Publication Wizard'. This doesn't make sense to me as it is an automatic process. Also, it looks like it is complaining about a 'dbo.MSmerge_cont...' view which is a view created automatically for the merge publication.

I've big problems with my SQL Server 2005 Std. merge replication/snapshot share
I want to create a mobile application based on a ms sql 2005 mobile database running on a pocketpc 2003se.
for this task i installed iis, sql server 2005 std. and the sql server mobile tools.
i created a dedicated user for making snapshots in the new created and functionable publication, but when i start the web sync wizard, i alwas get the failurmessages
snapshot share "......" cannot be accessed, please specify a new share
the access permissions based on the share an based on the ntfs area are set right.
the user, i chose for the anonymus access (the same, as for creating snapshots), has enough rights on the folder. also when creating a new share, with different share name, and using another user for anonymus access (standard iusr_machine_name) i get the same message
I re-created a publication that was having problems and it gives this error when I start the snapshot agent from SQL Server Management Studio: I am stuck on how to resolve - any ideas?
"The publisher's identity range allocation entry could not be found in MSmerge_identity_range table. Transaction count after EXECUTE indicates that a commit or ROLLBACK TRANSACTION statement is missing. Previous Count = 1, current count = 2."
select * from MSmerge_identity_range returns 19 entries but I don't know how to fix.
I have tried deleting and re-creating but always get this error.
My other publications and subscriptions are working fine and I was able to create a new test publication that worked but can not get this one to work that worked fine up until today.
I need to find all of the SQL Server objects, (tables, procs, functions, etc.) that my application is NOT using, so they can be removed from the system. Does anyone know how to accomplish this?
When I find that a column should no longer be used because of design changes. ( Moved column to other table to correct design normalization etc.)
I added a check to make sure the column must be NULL.
The following list the obsolete columns
SELECT col.TABLE_NAME + '.' + col.COLUMN_NAME AS FULL_COLUMN_NAME FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS col JOIN INFORMATION_SCHEMA.CONSTRAINT_COLUMN_USAGE ccu ON col.COLUMN_NAME = ccu.COLUMN_NAME AND col.TABLE_SCHEMA = ccu.TABLE_SCHEMA AND col.TABLE_NAME = ccu.TABLE_NAME JOIN INFORMATION_SCHEMA.CHECK_CONSTRAINTS cc ON ccu.CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA = cc.CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA AND ccu.CONSTRAINT_NAME = cc.CONSTRAINT_NAME WHERE IS_NULLABLE = 'YES' AND cc.CHECK_CLAUSE = '([' + col.COLUMN_NAME + '] IS NULL)' ORDER BY col.TABLE_NAME, col.COLUMN_NAME
In the past columns could not be set to null. This script list those columns that I need to add null checks to.
SELECT col.TABLE_NAME + '.' + col.COLUMN_NAME AS FULL_COLUMN_NAME, cc.CHECK_CLAUSE FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.COLUMNS col JOIN INFORMATION_SCHEMA.CONSTRAINT_COLUMN_USAGE ccu ON col.COLUMN_NAME = ccu.COLUMN_NAME AND col.TABLE_SCHEMA = ccu.TABLE_SCHEMA AND col.TABLE_NAME = ccu.TABLE_NAME JOIN INFORMATION_SCHEMA.CHECK_CONSTRAINTS cc ON ccu.CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA = cc.CONSTRAINT_SCHEMA AND ccu.CONSTRAINT_NAME = cc.CONSTRAINT_NAME WHERE cc.CHECK_CLAUSE LIKE '([[]' + col.COLUMN_NAME + '] =%' AND NOT cc.CHECK_CLAUSE LIKE '% OR %' AND NOT cc.CHECK_CLAUSE LIKE '% AND %' AND NOT cc.CHECK_CLAUSE LIKE '% IS %' AND NOT cc.CHECK_CLAUSE LIKE '% IN %' ORDER BY col.TABLE_NAME, col.COLUMN_NAME
Client issues query which sends out individual requests to the 2 OLAP servers that are load balanced. The client evaluates the versions of the returned record sets to ensure the consist data being returned for one single query. Otherwise, this error will be seen:
The cube has been updated by the server the data is now obsolete.
These servers sit behind a cisco 11506 CSS with load balancing based on balance type: least busy server, also persistence based on cookies.
My developer says this worked fine for a long time then just 'started happening'.
Hi, everyone, I am new in SQL server 2005. I had setup SQL server 2005 P2P replication. Somehow it did not work one of two way replication. I tried to delete the publication. However I could not do it. have the same problem. When I tried to delete the publication, I got the publication " " does not exist.[SQL server error: 20026]. I tried to use sp_droppublication, it gave me error "the database is not enabled for publication". Nevertheless, I can see the publication in MS SQL Management Studio and Publication monitor with OK status. I could not find the distribution database either.
Could you anyone has ideas to delete this publication? I am sorry I am not a programmer. Please give me more detail explanation if you can. Thanks.
I seem to have a strange problem when applying a snapshot when the tables in the publication have been updated while the snapshot was being generated.
Say for example there is a table called RMAReplacedItem in the publication. When the snapshot starts being applied to the subscriber, a stored procedure called sp_MSins_RMAReplacedItem_msrepl_css gets created that handles an insert if the row already exists (ie it updates the row rather than inserting it). However, after all the data has been loaded into the tables, instead of calling this procedure, it tries to call one called sp_MSins_RMAReplacedIte_msrepl_cssm - it takes the last letter of the table name and adds it to the end of the procedure name.
The worst part is that this causes the application of the snapshot to fail, but it doesnt report what the error is, and instead it just tries applying the snapshot again. The only way i have managed to find which call is failing is to run profiler against the subscriber while the snapshot is being applied and see what errors.
I have run sp_broswereplcmds and the data in there is what is applied to the subscriber - ie the wrong procedure name.
All the servers involved are running sql 2005 service pack 2. The publisher and subscriber were both upgraded from sql 2000, but the distribution server is a fresh install of sql 2005.
I have a strange error, when I try to create publication
Msg 3933, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_MSrepl_addpublication, Line 1222 Cannot promote the transaction to a distributed transaction because there is an active save point in this transaction.
What is it?
P. S. The error arise with all types of replication.
I have a problem with a publication which is a transactional replication on SQL Server 7.0 . I want to add stored procedure to the existing publication along with the tables . But the Enterprise manager does not allow to select or check the box against the required stored procedure although it displays when i right click on the publication and select proeprties .
Can i have some help in this regard ? Does anybody knows to add a stored procedure by means of a query .
Is there any other way to modify publication in SQL Server 7.0 although it is possible in SQL Server 2000 .?
Because of problems trying to alter databases used for replication my software would need to find out if a database is a publisher or was repliated (using T-SQL). Is this possible?
i had configured a merge replication betwen 2 server and i was running fine. but due to network problems my network admin has changed the ip address and name of the publisher, distributor and subscriber.
what i did. i just drop the publication and now i m trying to create a new one. but i cannt' able to create. i dont' know y.. this is the error i m facing..

I have been wrestling with this one all day and cannot find anything on MSDN, google, etc.... I have configured replication, but cannot create a new publication either programmatically or using the wizard. I programmatically did the following: 1. I set up my local server as a distributor, and created a distribution database (@distributor set to server sysname) execute sp_adddistributor @distributor = @distributor execute sp_adddistributiondb @database = @distributionDB, @security_mode=1; 2. I registered my local server also as a Publisher (@publisher set to server sysname, @distribution = 'distributor') SELECT @sql = 'sp_adddistpublisher @publisher = ''' + @publisher + ''', @distribution_db = ''' + @distributionDB + ''', @working_directory = ''' + @directory + ''', @security_mode = 1' SELECT @sp_executesql = quotename(@distributionDB) + '..sp_executesql ' EXEC @sp_executesql @sql 3. I enabled my local database for transactional replication (@replicationDB) exec sp_replicationdboption @dbname = @replicationDB, @optname = 'publish', @value = 'true 4. I added a logReaderAgent on the ReplicationDB SELECT @sql = 'sp_addlogreader_agent @publisher_security_mode = 1' SELECT @sp_executesql = quotename(@replicationDB) + '..sp_executesql EXEC @sp_executesql @sql
All is well up to this point, no problems, all looks great. When I check the status of things using sp_help repl stored procedures to check on publisher, distributor all looks healthy. Also looks good when I use the SSMS replication interface to check on distributor, publisher, etc. . HOWEVER...... I cannot create any publications.
I tried programmatically, and also by using the wizard. I keep getting the same error :'Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'pubid', table'. This is the sql I try to run: EXEC sp_addpublication @publication = 'test3333', @status = N'active', @allow_push = N'true', @allow_pull = N'true' This is the error: Msg 515, Level 16, State 2, Procedure sp_MSrepl_addpublication, Line 1320 Cannot insert the value NULL into column 'pubid', table 'CypressMaster.dbo.IHpublications'; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails. The statement has been terminated. Msg 14018, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_MSrepl_addpublication, Line 1348 Could not create the publication. If I use the wizard instead of trying to create the publication programmatically, I get this error (just about the same content, but a little different wording): Creating Publication - Creating Publication 'NewPublication' (Error) Messages * SQL Server could not create publication 'NewPublication'.

hi I was following the walkthrough "Creating a Mobile Application with SQL Server Mobile" and when I got to the point where you create a "local publication" I couldn't find the link "Local Publication" in my Object Explorer.
I read all the help in books online however id did not tell me how to bring that link there.
I did install the replication component using the CD installation. I have SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition and Visual Studio 2005
I also found the help "Using the Publication Wizard to Create a Publication" but did not know where to locate or start the wizard.
When go to set up a new publication I get the below error:

Its been created via UI on SQL2005 the distributor is correctly installed i also have not tried creating a publication on any other database.....this is the first.
I want to drop a table from a publication , so that i can copy some data from another server . After the copy , i want to add the article or the table back again to the publication without making any changes to the subscribers configuration .
Is it really possible on SQL 7.0 ? Right now it does not allow me to copy the data to the published table or even drop the article (table) and it says that the article is published for replication and cannot be dropped or modified . The table is configured for transactional replication .
I will have to drop the entire publication and create all the subcribers again .
We have a publication from database a to database b. Database a containts table1 to be published to databasae b. Database b contains a publication of table1 to database c. When we go to rerun the publication from database a it errors saying cannot drop table1 since it is part of database b's publication. how do you do this.
Hi, I disabled a merge publication on my server. I then ran sp_removedbreplication to clean the system tables. Thats fine. When I recreate a new publication on my server now, I still get the red x on my publisher node in my replcation monitor from the error I was getting before. Evenm though this publication is error free. Is it saving an srror flag in one of the sytem tabbles
Hi, I'm using DMO (SQLOLE65.dll) to programmatically replicate selected publications. The Publication object supports a property called Enabled, which can be set to FALSE. I'm setting the enabled property to TRUE for those publications that need be replicated, and make the others FALSE. Still, all publications get replicated. [I give DoAlter to commit the changes i made.] Any solution,Please mail me ASAP to venkateswaranb@synectics.soft.net

Hi, I would like to know the procedure to be followed to add a table to the existing publication. The subcriber doesn't have the object yet. I have data in the source table and I want to add this table in a existing publication for transactional replication. Any advise is appreciated.
We have to add some hardware and I was wondering if someone could provide a stepwise tip to do it .
It is a 3 Server Environment Pub/Dist/Sub All three running under SQL2K Here is what I am planning.
a. Uncheck the Enable in Distributed Agent for each replication b. Wait for all replications to complete c. Shut down Publisher ? Or do I have to do something else before that.
