Hi,
Some of the data files on our database got corrupted. Is there any tool to get just the data out of the data files and dump somewhere. We can manually rebuild the database using the schema scripts and loading the data. Appreciate any help. Any suggestions are welcome too.
Thanks.
One of our clients gets the following error when trying to backup a database:

Matt writes "Greetings! Warning, I'm a rookie. I wrote a stored procedure to pull data in order to do a nightly export/import from one system to another. I have a batch file that looks like this:
bcp "exec WinSNAP_retrieveStudents '0607'" queryout c:WinSNAPData06.txt -c -U user -P password
Sometimes, the file works and I get perfectly formed data, with everything just as I've requested (mostly basic demographic information: names, addresses, etc.).
But, other times the output file contains nothing but garbage characters, like this:
剒乏†††††††††ठ䅍啎䱅†††䴉㐉㐷‰䕓䄠䅐䡃⁅剄
The file size looks right, but it contains nothing but characters like this from beginning to end. I can find no pattern as to why/when good data gets pulled versus the corrupt data. I can run the batch file one minute and get good data, and run it the next minute and it's all corrupt. We have the batch file scheduled late at night when no users are online, and I get the same results -- one day it works, the next it doesn't.
Forgive me if this is a well-documented issue -- my searches so far haven't turned up a thing!
Thanks much for any advice you can provide!!

Hi there.
I have a corrupt .sdf database sat on a SD Card but i am unable to find a way to repair it.
So far I have tried a few different methods, most of which just tell me what i already know i.e. "the database is corrupt and needs repairing!!"
I am unable to open the file in SSMS object browser (see above message) which means i cant run repair / shrink utilites.
I am also unable to add the database to a vs2005 project (again see above message) meaning again i can't run any repair utilities.
I have also tried using the compact / Repair utility in Query analyser 3.0 on my Windows Mobile 5.0 PDA but once again i am greeted with an "error reading file - Run the Repair Utility" Message.
Lastly i've tried using the SQLCEengine.repair method and, depending on whether i do it on the PDA or on a desktop pc it throws the exceptions "Error occurred reading database file - run the repair utility"(PDA) or "invalid database type" (PC)
Can anyone shed any light as to whether there is another (easier???) way of doing this or if i just have to face it that this file is lost?
Thanks
ps. the code i used for the .repair is as below:
Dim conn As SqlCeEngine
Dim strdb As String
strdb = "SD CardPathnameDatabase.sdf"
conn = New SqlCeEngine(String.Format("Data Source={0}", strdb))
If conn.Verify = False Then
conn.Repair(Nothing, RepairOption.RecoverCorruptedRows)
MsgBox("Successfully Repaired")
End If

I have a SSIS package that reads a SQL database and generates a flat file(.csv ) in some other system. This flat file is being read by another software tool to do further processing. The package is scheduled as SSIS job.I deployed in the production around 1 month back and it was working fine. Around 1 week back, there was a job failure for the SSIS package. The error log suggested that the problem is with some buffer management and temp file usage in the system where the csv file is generated. The error was rectified by giving appropriate permissions to the folder and temp area to the user that is running the SSIS job on the sql server. After that, the job has run successfully and the csv file is also generated. The format of the csv file seems to be correct. But however, the third party software tool is not being able to read the file treating it as invalid file.
I have no access to the production environment. Can anyone suggest is to do anything with the SSIS package and how can the issue be resolved?
Any help would be highly appreciable.
Many Thanks

Hello,

I have merge replication set up between sql mobile and sql 2005 (just recently upgraded from sql 2000). My publication has around 40 published tables, about half of them are filtered. The other day I noticed that the initial replication to get the entire database was downloading the same tables multiple times. The last test was each table was downloaded 10 times. So I did some research which brought me to the following fix, which was to implement dynamic snapshots.
However, when I try to replicate, it generates a dynamic snapshot, but it fails with the following error€¦
An error occurred while reading the .bcp data file for the 'MSmerge_rowtrack' article. If the .bcp file is corrupt, you must regenerate the snapshot before initializing the Subscriber. (Source: MSSQL_REPL, Error number: MSSQL_REPL-2147199428)
I haven€™t changed the snapshot locations, and if I don€™t use dynamic snapshots it works fine. I€™ve tweaked the permissions (in development) to the point where everyone has full permission on the IIS share, and snapshot folder with no luck.
I would appreciate any advice. Thank you!
In doing a System Restore an error occurred in my SQL 2005. I've researched the thing, and am prepared to uninstall and reinstall SQL Server 2005, however, even tho I am administrator it will not uninstall. It will not reinstall over the previous install that's in place.
When I go through Control Panel to Add and Remove, when I click uninstall SQL Server 2005 it merely flashes a new window for a second and then does nothing. It will not start an uninstall action.
I don't know what to do short of a full XP Pro re-install.
Hi,
I am having problems with my SQL server Agent.
1) When I try to create a New Job/Alert/Operator, I get an error message:
Error 207: Invalid Column Name "category_id"
Invalid Column Name "netsend_address"
Invalid Column Name "last_netsend_date"
Invalid Column Name "last_netsend_time"
.....All these are referring to columns in System Tables of the system Database MSDB.
2)In another SQL Server...say "A", in it's SQL Server Agent, using the Multi-Server Administration, I set up the SQL Server Agent of "A" as the Master (MSX) server, and set up a Target(TSX) server pointing to the Server "B" that has problems in SQL Agent....referred in 1) above. When I try to "Detach the MSX Server" from server B, i get a message Error 207: Invalid Column Name "netsend_address", and cannot detach..........This is again referrring to a System Table.
It appears that the problem is with the MSDB database being corrupt. Is there a way I can Repair a Corrupt MSDB without Re-installing SQL Server 2000 and without a Backup.
Any help greatly appreciate.
Thanks

As the title indicates, I'm having this error during installation. It occurs when I try to install
the "Management Studio" part of the program. I've tried a bunch of things like
copying to hard drive and installing, but to no avail. To isolate the problem, i've even tried removing Reporting services, since at the time of failure it seems to be trying to install/configure the Microsoft.Reporting Services dll.
Additionally, I have SQL Express installed (installed it separately, not as part of the SQL 2005 DVD), VS 2005, .NET Framework 2.0, SQL Management Studio Express CTP. Could the Management Studio Express be causing a problem?
Please note:
Although the error is about missing / corrupt Sql.cab, I have searched the entire dvd for the said file, but there is no file called Sql.cab on the dvd. Am I missing something?
Any solution would be greatly appreciated.
TIA
I hope someone has seen this one...I've got a very simple web method that returns a DataTable from my database. It worked fine until I changed this line of code:
string SqlString = @"SELECT Timestamp, Confession FROM Confessions WHERE ConfessionID = ? ORDER BY Timestamp desc";
To this line of code:
string SqlString = @"SELECT Timestamp, Confession FROM Confessions WHERE ConfessionID = ? AND CategoryID = ? ORDER BY Timestamp desc";
Here is the complete webmethod:
[WebMethod]
public DataTable GetConfession (int ConfessionID, int CategoryID) {
DataTable dt = new DataTable();
dt.TableName = "XMLConfession";
string SqlString = @"SELECT Timestamp, Confession FROM Confessions WHERE ConfessionID = ? AND CategoryID = ? ORDER BY Timestamp desc";
using (OleDbConnection cn = new OleDbConnection (ConnectionString)) {
using (OleDbCommand cmd = new OleDbCommand (SqlString, cn)) {
cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue ("@ConfessionID", ConfessionID);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue ("@CategoryID", CategoryID);
cn.Open();
OleDbDataAdapter da = new OleDbDataAdapter (cmd);
da.Fill (dt);
}
}
return dt;
}
To cause the error, all I did was add the AND statement into the query. Now I get this .NET error message every time I try to run this program:
System.Web.Services.Protocols.SoapException: Server was unable to process request. ---> System.AccessViolationException: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt. at System.Data.Common.UnsafeNativeMethods.ICommandWithParameters.SetParameterInfo(IntPtr cParams, IntPtr[] rgParamOrdinals, tagDBPARAMBINDINFO[] rgParamBindInfo) at System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand.ApplyParameterBindings(ICommandWithParameters commandWithParameters, tagDBPARAMBINDINFO[] bindInfo) at System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand.CreateAccessor() at System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand.InitializeCommand(CommandBehavior behavior, Boolean throwifnotsupported) at System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand.ExecuteCommand(CommandBehavior behavior, Object& executeResult) at System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand.ExecuteReaderInternal(CommandBehavior behavior, String method) at System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior behavior) at System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand.System.Data.IDbCommand.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior behavior) at System.Data.Common.DbDataAdapter.FillInternal(DataSet dataset, DataTable[] datatables, Int32 startRecord, Int32 maxRecords, String srcTable, IDbCommand command, CommandBehavior behavior)
I am using SQL Server Compact Edition 3.5 and C# .NET 2.0. It's worth noting that the web service does this outside of the program as well, so I don't think the problem is in the code that calls it. Also worth noting is that the query itself works fine when I substitute values in and run it in .NET Server Explorer.
Thanks in advance for any assistance.
I hope someone can help me here. Here is some background.
As I was attempting to download SQL Express, the download dialog box timed out. When I x-ed out of the download, Windows XP Professional 2002 threw up an error message indicating that the dialog box was non-responsive, and I elected to close it.
I downloaded SQL again successfully, and installed with no errors. I then attempted to create a new db through Visual Web Developer. Instead of creating a database, Visual Studio returned an error saying that I did not allow for new database objects, and that I should change my permission settings. I could not figure out how to do this, so I uninstalled SQL Express.
After re-starting, I got the following message: €œYour SQL Server Installation is either corrupt or has been tampered with (could not open SQLEVN70.RLL). Please uninstall then re-run setup to correct this option.€?
I uninstalled MS SQL again from the Add/Delete Programs on my Control Panel. On re-start, I received the same error again. On my Programs list, MS SQL is not present, there are several MS SQL files in the path C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server.
So I located the Visual Studio uninstall tool and attempted to run it. I received the same error: €œYour SQL Server Installation is either corrupt or has been tampered with (could not open SQLEVN70.RLL). Please uninstall then re-run setup to correct this option.€?
Any ideas on how to uninstall the files in my program files so I can load a clean copy of SQL?
I was successfully able to installing sql server 2005 developer edition all peices except the "Workstation Component, Book Online, Development Tool", the last item in the installation list. It gave errror for bad sql.cab file. Although this developer edition came directly of the box this error came up in many attempts. Upon "Ignore" it gives error 2350.
I am able to run sql server's all the services and able to access it via VS.Net server browser. I can create and change tables etc. but there is no "Management Studio" installed. There is no icon for it either on the desktop or in the Start->SQL Server 2005 menu.
Is it possible to get and copy sql.cab file or entire client component from somewhere else? --Freed download or something? I searched for sql.cab file but it was not in the CD. It could be inside some other file or cmpressed.
Any suggestion.

I have just begun to try out differential backups. Almost every reference I found on the internet said to use a .dif file extension. Books Online "Back Up Database Task (Maintenance Plan) MS.SQLCC.v9/MS.SQLSVR.v9.en/uirfsql9/html/ed1ef012-fa14-4ba5-bafe-d1527ba065b3.htm only says :
Backup file extension Specify the extension to use for the backup files. The default is .bak.
                                                                                                                                  Â
Using .dif for the differential shows "Microsoft Office Excel Data Interchange Format" as the type when looking at the backup folder. URL... indicates that .dif has 11 different uses, including "Difference data file." In a couple of posts in this forum in April and May of this year David Dye said that the file extension for differential backups is .bak, the same as for the full backup.
Â
If this is the case, this would cause a problem with our maintenance plan policy which is to retain the two most recent backup files on the server. If we do a full backup for the base on the weekend and differential backups the rest of the week, our full backup would have to be restored from out tape system before we could do a restore. Recoveries are pretty rare, but when we get that panicked phone call that someone accidently deleted all the records of a major client, time is of the essence in getting that point in time restore done.

View 7 Replies View RelatedThis is for SQL Server 2005 SP4 Build 5266. We have been having performance issues in production. There are tight deadlines to be met and it is important that they are solved promptly.
Yesterday we replicated the situation in the acceptance testing environment. The jobs take 8 hours to run and we started at 2:00 PM.
Just before the jobs ran I set up an SQL Server Profiler trace to catch processes with a duration of longer then 12 seconds. I set it to save the results to a database table.
Last night I checked the table at 5:00 PM and there were entries in the table. However, I could be mistaken.
At 9:00 PM I checked the table and it was empty.
This morning I arrived at work and checked SQL Server Profiler. The trace was running and within SQL Server Profiler, there are 100s of results. I stopped the trace. However, checking the table, it is empty.
I thought I would be able to save the trace results to a file. When I chose "Save As" from the file menu, all the options are greyed out (trace file, trace template, trace table, etc).
The results are there but there is no way of saving them and no way of exporting them. How could this have happened?
Is there a location, where SQL Server Profiler saves the results in a temporary space. I may be able to open them and retrieve them. How can I save the results? Why are all my options greyed out?
SELECT from openrowset(BULKÂ 'SERVERNAMEsomepathsomefile.csv'... fails while SELECT from openrowset(BULK 'c:somepathsomefile.csv' ... works.
I am running the task as a specific sql server user. If I run the same query in management studio using execute as login='batchuser', it also works for any path.
How can I make this work without an extra step moving the data to the local server? Because that would cause extra administration.

I am running SQL Server 2005 x64 Enterprise under Windows 2003 x64 Enterprise. My current backup strategy uses T-SQL jobs run by SQL Agent (writes out *.bak files) and then I have an Integration Services job that copies the *.bak files to our NAS device. I have performed a restore without issue. The jobs are all automated every four hours via SQL Agent. Is this a sound strategy or are there additional benefits to using 3rd party tools? If so, what are the advantages and which tool provides them?
Login failed for user 'TOSHIBA-USERASPNET'
I know that the file persmission for the web application have to include aspnet, so i keep resetting the folder permission for aspnet in file manager, but the login failed keeps coming back every day or two
problem is after working with VS05 Pro, SQL Server Management Studio CTP, somehow the aspnet persmission get changed, use alot of sqldatasource wizards and often there is a conflict/hang between the datasource wizard and the need to have the mdf in a dettached state within VS server explorer,
not sure but the procedure to fix this seems to be to reboot, detach and re-attach the mdf in the Sql server Studio tool, re-apply the aspnet file permission on the web app folders (wonder should i be doing this in IIS instead), make sure the mdf within server explorer is detached, the it works
anyway, getting real tired of the resulting delays and design time derailment, clues greatly appreciated, thanks
sometimes i can use View in Browser when in VS05 form view and i wont get the aspnet folder permission error and other times i do.
last thing, is it a bad idea to give aspnet full permission for the entire web applicaiton??
