Upgrade Servers That Replicate
Jul 14, 2007
I have been asked to upgrade 5 SQL2000 servers to SQL2005. These servers replicate between each other forming a circle of replication. I am concerned of the implications involved in the upgrade because of the reliance on the replication.
Can anyone please give me advice on upgrading where replication is active. Will replication continue to work between 2000 and 2005 servers as it may not be possible to upgrade all the servers in one shot. Any advice on upgrading where replication is already active would be helpfull.
Thanks.

HelloI have 2 locations, that each has an MSSQL 2000 server.Since the locations are to far from each other and the connection isvery slow.My thought was to have a database on both servers that should replicate“on the fly” or as asynchronous sync.The problem is that both locations work in the database frequently. Soit’s very important that there are no duplicate IDs.Is that possibly and how?~Peter

We have 2 servers, one NT4/SQL6.5, one Win2K,SQL7 both under the same NT Workgroup. SQL Server services are running under LocalAdmin on both boxes. We want to use the upgrade wizard to move the 6.5 DB to the 7 box, but get message "The local SQL Server is running under LocalSystem privileges, preventing the Upgrade Wizard to connect to the Export server" message. Any ideas what can be done to get this to work?

I have a report that was designed using SQL Reporting Services that sits on a SQL reporting server. It's nothing too exciting, it is essentially a three page application with legal jumbo on pages 2 and 3 and applicant data in fields on page 1.
We use rectangles to force page breaks to page 2 and to page 3.
When running the report on the report server, it shows and prints fine.
When running the report from the QA website internally, it shows and prints just fine.
When running the report from the production website from a machine internally, it shows and prints just fine.
When running the report from outside of the company network, the report is jacked. It obliterates large chunks of text, crams text together, and creates blank pages.
I need help in determining where I even begin with trouble shooting this!

can anyone tell me if they know of a way to automate the update process from development servers to live server, with little interference from an administrator
I have a development team that are constantly updating their databases along with their ASP code, and want to publish changes an a weekly basis. They have asked me for a way to take their new structures, tables, procedures etc, and copy them to the live servers, but NOT to interfere with existing customer data.
Funny I know – and I hate the idea btw :(
Any references, contacts, 3rd party tool recommendations welcome,
Thanx,
Darren

I am in the middle of a major migraton project, moving from x86 SQL 2000 to IA64 SQL 2005. I have a business need to link to several legacy servers. I have a number of problems I am trying to solve.
1) Linking a Kerberos server to a non-Kerberos server.
2) Linking x64 or IA64 servers to x86 servers.
3) Linking SQL 2005 to SQL 2000.
Two of the errors I am encountering are:
------------------------------
TCP Provider: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.
Login failed for user '(null)'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "SCDC250DB" returned message "Communication link failure".
(Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 10054)
------------------------------
And
------------------------------
The OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for the linked server "SCDC250DB" reported an error. Authentication failed.
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "SCDC250DB".
OLE DB provider "SQLCLI" for linked server "SCDC250DB" returned message "Invalid authorization specification".
(Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 7399)
If someone has worked through these problems before, I would appreciate it if you could direct me to the relevant documentation to resolve these issues.
Thanks!

Hi my friends,
I'm replicating with SQL Server 2000(updated Service Pack 3) get error:
SQL Server Enterprise Manager could not configure 'BREEZE1' as the Distributor for 'BREEZE1'.
Error 14113: Could not execute "'"C:program filesmicrosoft sql server80 ools\binnosql" -E -l60 -t60 -d"distribution" -b -i"c:MSDESQLBinnMSSQL\installinstdist.sql" -o"c:msdesqlinnmssql\installinstdist.out"'". Check 'instdist.out' in the install directory.
'distribution' is not configured as a distribution database.
Deleting database file 'c:msdesqldatamssqldatadistribution.ldf'.

I have a feeling this is failing because I have not C:msdesqlinnmssqlinstall directory at all.
Is there something I'm doing wrong...If the SP3 can affect???

This code :
declare @filenumber as char
set @filenumber = '65'
declare @filenu2 as char(6)
set @filenu2 = CONVERT(CHAR(6),(replicate('0',(6-len(@filenumber)))+ @filenumber ))
select @filenu2 as x
This should return 000065
but it returns 000006
i have stepped through it the replicate should replicate the 0 4 times
(6 - len of @filenumber) instaed its doing it 5 ??

Merge replication. We switched a publication over from push to pull and are now initiating everything within an application. We have just encountered a situation where it is now completely impossible to replicate DDL.
When this was a push subscription, we could execute the following and it would fly straight through the engine and hit every subscriber without having to do anything at all:
ALTER TABLE <tablename>
ADD <columnname> <datatype> NULL
Now that it is a pull subscription when I issue an ALTER TABLE and add a nullable column to the end of the table, it does NOT replicate at ALL. We get the following error message:
The schema definition of the destination table 'dbo'.'Player' in the subscription database does not match the schema definition of the source table in the publication database. Reinitialize the subscription without a snapshot after ensuring that the schema definition of the destination table is the same as the source table. (Source: MSSQL_REPL, Error number: MSSQL_REPL-2147199478)
Get help: http://help/MSSQL_REPL-2147199478
The process was successfully stopped. (Source: MSSQL_REPL, Error number: MSSQL_REPL-2147199481)
Get help: http://help/MSSQL_REPL-2147199481
It apears that we are now required to either reinitialize every subscriber every time we add a column or we are required to first distribute the DDL change to each subscriber, make sure they all have it, then add it to the publisher before anyone replicates, and then reinit every single one of them without a snapshot. This makes absolutely no sense at all.
The interesting thing is that we can add articles at will and those get applied with absolutely no problems at all to the subscribers without having to do anything other than add the article and generate a new snapshot.

Greetings,
I have a client whose DBA upgraded their SQL 2000 database to SQL 2005. They still have it running in 8.0 compatibility mode, for various reasons, and would like me to help them develop a migration strategy to get them to full 9.0 compatibility.
My question is: can I run the Upgrade Advisor on a SQL 2005 engine database running in 8.0 compatibility mode and get anything useful? I already know there will be some issues with existing DTS packages but it would be nice to catch any other issues in advance.
I know that the Upgrade Advisor was run before the upgrade took place but to my knowledge the report was not saved and none of the recommendations were followed.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
Lon

Hi everyone, I've recently been thrown into a DBA role (I've never done any DBA work except writing a few SQL queries), so please go easy on me if these are stupid questions. My first task is to find the best way to replicate data between two SQL Server production databases. The data is to come from Production DB #1 to Production DB #2 (for access by a different system). The data has to be super-close -- not necessarily real-time, but within a few minutes. So when data is updated in #1, #2 shouldn't be be lagged by more than 45 minutes (5-10 is ideal). There are hundreds of thousands of records.What would be the best way to do this? Are there options in SQL Server 2005 to do "differential" updates from DB1 to DB2? Or is that how "transactional replication" works? If we were to implement a "full recovery model", will this impact any sort of replication? Thanks.

WE have a production database that we need to sync with about 100
salesman's laptops. These laptops will not always be online and
would need to sync on the fly.
We are thinking of having a separate distribution database to handle
the load and creating either a pull subscription or even just a DTS
package. We would like to have the salesmen just signon and go to an
ASP page and hit an Icon and either the pull subscription or the dts
package would start the sync..
Anyone tried this before and have any other ideas??
Thanks for any help??

I have set up a simple trans rep from a server in the office to the web. both servers are NT4sp6aSQL 7.0. Tables only.
The publication and distribution db are on the server at the office, and there is a full time connection through the firewall.
The initialization and first replication works perfectly, but after that, there is a message from the snapshot agent that "no subscriptions needed initialization", the logreader says thare are no replicated transactions and the Distribution agent says there are no replicated transactions. What am I missing?
Thanks in advance

Hi, there
I have a situation here....
I have Production DB and Development DB in the same SQL7.0 box....
I want to update the data and SP from Pro. to Dev at least once a day...
So this is my plan.
1. Back up(Pro.) and restore(Dev.) so I can have the same DB in the same box.
2. Using a Replication (Pulication and Subscription) ro update the data and SP.
3. Because DTS can not update the SP, I use the replication instead of DTS.
I need to update the SP, too..(Front end is ACCESS and backend is SQL7.0 DB)
Is there any other methods or way to make ti happen... Any suggestion can help...
Thanks in advance

Hi,
I'm new to replication.
I configured Server named TESTER as publisher & distributer. Create new publication for database named TEST ( type : Transactional ), then Create a new push subcriptions for database TESTREPLICATION ( on the same Server : TESTER). Then I open a table in database TEST to input some data but I couldn't see any tables or data in database TESTREPLICATION ( I chose Continuously, not scheduled).
Yet, after the lunch, I could see the tables, no data. I tried to choose Start Synchronizing but not helped.
Please tell me if I configured incorrectly ?
Thanks,

Hi:
In the publishing server, admin users could change and non-admin user password and also add login and drop login.
How could it happen to not only replicate the application database to subscriber server but also replicate the changes made in master database?
So that the remote subscriber server will have the most current login updates?
thanks

When I'm using MS SQL transactional replication and select all the tables to be replicated, some of the tables are marked with the red cross signs and aren't being replicated. How do I include these tables into the MS SQL replication? I tried to build indexes and re-created publications, but it didn't work.
Please help!

Can changes made to replicated stored procedures (and User-defined Functions) on the Publisher update the Subscriber database?
If I ALTER a SP (or UDF) on Database1 with peer-to-peer Transaction Replication to Database2, will the alter replicate to the Subscriber(s)?

I have a db and I only really need the table structures and defined functions/procedures from the db. A small sample set would be nice from each table, but not necessary.
What would be the easiest way to accomplish this?
I'm getting the db from a server not connected to the new one so I either need to get the files and reattach or I need to just copy the structure/procedures in.
thx

Hi,
Trying to build an replication and subscription beteween db in SQL 2000. The db holds our business system (Dynamics NAV, earlier Navision) and several of the tables include $, spaces and even :
We can take some of this away when creating a new db or make scripts for some actions but I wonder if the mirroring in 2005 could handle this?
Thanks,
