I want to automatically send someone an email with Licensing information. I save the license information in SQL with a EmailSent field that will have the date when the email is sent. But, I want to only make the update to the licenses table if the email is sent correctly/successfully. I currently use stored procedures for all upates to the database. But I don't use sql server's email facilities, rather I am emailing from C# code with the SmtpMail class. Sometimes wel will be mailing and saving a single license. Other times we will mail multiple licenses in the same email causing us to have to update multiple records in our Licenses table.
As far as I see it, here are my options:
1. Use automatic (COM+) transactions to call the SendEmails method and the License.Save method together. Write a Seperate SaveMultipleLicenses method.
2. Call License.Save or SaveMultipleLicenses method without updating the email sent field. Send the email. If it is successful update the email sent field.
Basically, I would like to know the best way to include the email methods within my transaction to update the database becuase we don't want to save a license (thereby indicating the customer has a license) unless the email is sent successfully.
Had a weird error yesterday, can anybody shed any light on it.
I got the following error in a SQL 7(sp2) database. 'The log file for database 'IT2PROD' is full. Back up the transaction log for the database to free up some log space.. Error: 9002, Severity: 17, State: 2'
The Transaction Log has unrestricted file growth and auto grow file set and the disk has over 20gb of free space.
The only explanation I can think of is that the Log tried to extend during the hourly backup. Would this cause the above error ??? The backup file is usually about 80mb but was over 300mb when this happened.
Since upgrading from SQL Server Management Studio 2008 R2, I've noticed that it no longer autosaves queries that have not been manually saved first. If a file has been manually saved the autorecover files end up in the following directory:
%appdata%MicrosoftSQL Server Management Studio11.0AutoRecoverDatSolution1
However, I have ended up in the situation where I have unsaved queries when my computer has crashed and have not been able to recover them.
I have also found references to .sql files stored in temp files in the following directory, but the files here seem to be very haphazardly caught:
I have an MS SQL Server table with a Job Number field I need this field to start at a certain number then auto increment from there. Is there a way to do this programatically or within MSDE?
I'm getting this when executing the code below. Going from W2K/SQL2k SP4 to XP/SQL2k SP4 over a dial-up link.
If I take away the begin tran and commit it works, but of course, if one statement fails I want a rollback. I'm executing this from a Delphi app, but I get the same from Qry Analyser.

I have a design a SSIS Package for ETL Process. In my package i have to read the data from the tables and then insert into the another table of same structure.
for reading the data i have write the Dynamic TSQL based on some condition and based on that it is using 25 different function to populate the data into different 25 column. Tsql returning correct data and is working fine in Enterprise manager. But in my SSIS package it show me time out ERROR.
I have increase and decrease the time to catch the error but it is still there i have tried to set 0 for commandout Properties.
if i'm using the 0 for commandtime out then i'm getting the Distributed transaction completed. Either enlist this session in a new transaction or the NULL transaction.
and
Failed to open a fastload rowset for "[dbo].[P@@#$%$%%%]". Check that the object exists in the database.
I am getting this error :Distributed transaction completed. Either enlist this session in a new transaction or the NULL transaction.

i have a sequence container in my my sequence container i have a script task for drop the existing tables. This seq. container connected to another seq. container. all these are in for each loop container when i run the package it's work fine for 1st looop but it gives me error for second execution.
Message is like this:
Distributed transaction completed. Either enlist this session in a new transaction or the NULL transaction.
i am getting this error "Distributed transaction completed. Either enlist this session in a new transaction or the NULL transaction.".
my transations have been done using LINKED SERVER. when i manually call the store procedure from Server 1 it works but when i call it through Service broker it dosen't work and gives me this error.
I have Full database backup upto previous day and transaction logfile of Today transaction. my database has crashed. I have restored previous day's Full backup. I have faced difficulty to restore today's transaction from today's transaction log. What are the steps to restore full database back and one day's transaction log file. Note: there is no differential database backup and transaction backup.
I'm receiving the below error when trying to implement Execute SQL Task.
"The ROLLBACK TRANSACTION request has no corresponding BEGIN TRANSACTION." This error also happens on COMMIT as well and there is a preceding Execute SQL Task with BEGIN TRANSACTION tranname WITH MARK 'tran'
I know I can change the transaction option property from "supported" to "required" however I want to mark the transaction. I was copying the way Import/Export Wizard does it however I'm unable to figure out why it works and why mine doesn't work.
I created a Calculated measure in cube something like this : ([TransType].[TransTypeHierarchy].[TransTypeCategoryParent].&[SPEND],[Measures].[Transaction Amount]). To get only spend transactions. Now, I want to slice this measure with same hierarchy to find the amount distribution across different transaction types under spend transaction. But this query behaving like the measure doesn't have relation with measure.
you can think this as below query: WITH MEMBER SPEND AS ([TransType].[TransTypeHierarchy].[TransTypeCategoryParent].&[SPEND],[Measures].[Transaction Amount]) SELECT NON EMPTY {SPEND} ON 0 ,NON EMPTY ([TransType].[TransTypeHierarchy].[TransTypeCategoryParent]) ON 1 FROM [CUBE]
How do I make use of begin transaction and commit transaction in SSIS.
As am not able to commit changes due to certain update commands I want to explicitly write begin and commit statements. but when i make use of begin and commit in OLEDB commnad stage it throws an error as follows:
Hresult:0x80004005
descriptionyntax error or access violation.
its definately not an syntax error as i executed it in sql server. also when i use it in execute sql task out side the dataflow container it doesnt throw any error but still this task doesnt serve my purpose of saving/ commiting update chanages in the database.
I am having some problem with SSIS transaction. Eventhought I tried to imitate the concept that Jamie presented at http://www.sqlservercentral.com/columnists/jthomson/transactionsinsqlserver2005integrationservices.asp
. My workflow is as followed
********************************* For Each ADO.Record in Oracle (transaction=not supported)
If (Certain_Field_Value = 'A')

Lookup Data in SQL DB with values from Oracle (transaction=not supported)
DO Sequence B (Start a Transaction , transaction = required)
INSERT/UPDATE some records in SQLDB (transaction=supported) Finish Sequence A ( transaction should stop here) UPDATE Oracle DB ( Execute SQLTask, transaction=not supported) If (Certain_Field_Value = 'C')
------------ ------------ End ForEach Loop ************************************* My requirements are that I want separate transaction for each Sequence A, B, C, etc... If Sequence A transaction fails, the other should still be continuing with another transaction. But I am getting an error regarding the OLEDB Error in next Task (e.g in Certain_Field_Value = 'B') "Lookup Data in SQL DB with values from Oracle ", the error message is ".......Distributed transaction completed. Either enlist this session in a new transaction or the NULL transaction. ". What is it that I am doing wrong? Regards KyawAM

I am executing a stored procedure something like this
Create Procedure TEST @test1 @test2 AS BeGIN TRANSACTION ONE SELECT... UPDATE.. .... ....
.... TRUNCATE etc and lot of Select,update and delete statements like this ..... COMMIT TRANSACTION ONE
The Block of code which I have b/w BEGIN TRANSACTION AND COMMIT TRANSACTION ..Will it be rolled back if it encounters any errors in the SELECT,UPPDATE,DELETE ..statements which I have with the transaction one. IF not How do I roll back if it encounters any erros b/w the BEGIN TRANSACTION and END TRANSACTION.
---------------------------------------------- dim conn, connectionstring
connectionstring= "Provider=SQLOLEDB.1; Data Source = blahblah; Initial Catalog = abc; User Id = osss; Password=xxx"
set conn = server.CreateObject("adodb.connection") conn.open connectionstring
----------------------------------------------
It's just basically to set up the connection to the SQL server, it works on my other pages, but on a few pages, the last line (conn.open connectionstring) triggers this error:
"Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '8004d00a'
New transaction cannot enlist in the specified transaction coordinator. "
I've never encountered this error before and I couldn't think of any solution... please help!!!
I had thought that if any statement failed within a BEING TRANS .. COMMIT TRANS block, then all the statements would be rolled back. But I am seeing different behavior (SQL Server 2000 8.00.2039)
For instance, run these statements to set up a test: --DROP TABLE testTable1 --DROP TABLE testTable2 CREATE TABLE testTable1 (f1 varchar(1)) CREATE TABLE testTable2 (f1 varchar(1)) CREATE UNIQUE INDEX idx_tmptmp ON testTable1 (f1) insert into testTable1(f1) values ('a')
So table testTable1 has a unique index on it..
Now try to run these statements:
--DELETE FROM testTable2 BEGIN TRANSACTION insert into testTable1(f1) values ('a') insert into testTable2(f1) values ('a') COMMIT TRANSACTION
SELECT * FROM testTable2
..the first insert fails on the unique index.. but the second insert succeeds. Shouldn't the second insert roll back? How can I make two operations atomic?
Hi,On My local SQL server I have added a linked server to another SQLserver (remoteserver) in another Windows NT Domain.When I run this codeselect count(*) from remoteserver.mosaics.dbo.LocationThis works fine.However when I usebegin transactionselect count(*) from remoteserver.mosaics.dbo.LocationIt errors out saying thatThe operation could not be performed because the OLE DB provider'SQLOLEDB' was unable to begin a distributed transaction.New transaction cannot enlist in the specified transactioncoordinator. ]OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'SQLOLEDB'ITransactionJoin::JoinTransaction returned 0x8004d00a].My question is even though I am just reading data from theremoteserver, why does the local transaction get promoted to adistributed transaction.Any help will be grately appreciated.TIA...Rohit

Hello, I've a problem with a software developed in C# with the framework 2.0. This is the error I receive : The operation could not be performed because OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "XXX_LINKED_SERVER" was unable to begin a distributed transaction. OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "XXX_LINKED_SERVER" returned message "No transaction is active.". If I try directly to restart the process, it works fine. Is there someone who can help me ? This is the process 1. In C# --> Call of a Query : select from the linked server (db in sql 2005) and insert into a table SQL 2005 2. In the C# --> using (TransactionScope scope = new TransactionScope()) and insert in a table in SQL 2005 which is link server Thank in advance.
I found the following link which seems to be the problem we're experiencinghttp://support.microsoft.com/kb/937517
The link includes a workaround which is the following: "To prevent the SQLNCLI provider from sending an attention signal to the server, use the SQLNCLI provider to consume fully any rowsets that the OLE DB consumer creates. "
How do I use the SQLNCLI provider to fully consume any rowsets?
Does anyone know how to use for xml auto that will format an xml response to show the parent/child relationships? I currently have the parents and children in a temp table and can only get a formatting so that each one is returned at a parent. how can i select the results from the temp table so for xml auto will return the properly formatted xml file?
The upgrade adviser for for 2k5 says something about derived tables being handled differently between 2k and 2K5 and it says to query the tables directly but this does not seem to make much sense because I thought FOR XML AUTO just created some generic XML for presentation purposes. These 2 stored procedures that it is complaining about do query the tables directly and they use the FOR XML AUTO to control the output.Does anyone know if I have to worry about this? I am tempted to let this slide and check out this part of the application after the migration happens tomorrow for QA to start testing.Yes I have been googling, checking my books and digging around in BOL. I am not seeing anything.DISREGARD: I found my derived table. It appears to change the output of the XML. Perfect.
I am using sql server 2000 and want to know how to get xml out of the database that looks like this using for xml auto <Clients> <Client ID="1"> <Employer="Company1" /> <Employer="Company2" /> <Contact type="phone"> <contact type="email" value="test@test.com"> <contact type="phone" value="555-5555"> </Client> <Client ID="2"> <Employer="Company3" /> <Employer="Company4" /> <Contact type="phone"> <contact type="email" value="test@test.com"> <contact type="phone" value="555-5555"> </Client></Clients> The problem I am having is that Contact is nested inside employer when I select Employer before Contact and the opposite happens when I select Contact first. They both join to the Client table so I would assume they both should nest directly under Client. How do I get different fields to nest directly under the same element like above?

Hi all, I would like to have my SQL statement result to return an additional "column", automatically adding an "auto-increasing" number with it. So if I for example select all Dates older than today's date, I would want something like this:
1 10/12/2006
2 10/18/2006
3 10/20/2006
4 10/22/2006
5 10/30/2006 Keep in mind that it's not my intention to fysically insert the "counting" column into the table, but rather do it "virtually". Is this possible? And if yes, how ? :)
