Built-In TargetServerRole

Jul 26, 2001

I recently came across this built-in role in MSDB. It is not documented anywhere except sp_create role stuff. Does anyone know what this role is used for? Is this what gives users that are not dbo or sa access to see jobs?

Sp_help_job Stored Procedure

May 29, 2007

Is there a way to calculate how long each job takes to run using sp_help_job or similar stored procedure? Is last_run_time the clock time or duration? I am getting values like 40000 and 50000 under last_run_time but don't know what that is.

Sp_help_job (SQLServer 2000)

Mar 13, 2008

exec msdb.dbo.sp_help_job @job_name = 'job_name', @job_aspect='JOB'

I've been reading a lot of stuff about this lately, i've tried severals solutions but none worked.

The case is pretty much standard: from query analyzer/any other software it works if i execute it by hand. From my piece of software it fails miserably (managed code, .NET 2.0) with "A severe error occurred on the current command. The results, if any, should be discarded."

Here is the call stack:

Stack : at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection)
at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlInternalConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection)
at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.ThrowExceptionAndWarning(TdsParserStateObject stateObj)
at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.Run(RunBehavior runBehavior, SqlCommand cmdHandler, SqlDataReader dataStream, BulkCopySimpleResultSet bulkCopyHandler, TdsParserStateObject stateObj)
at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader.SetMetaData(_SqlMetaDataSet metaData, Boolean moreInfo)
at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.Run(RunBehavior runBehavior, SqlCommand cmdHandler, SqlDataReader dataStream, BulkCopySimpleResultSet bulkCopyHandler, TdsParserStateObject stateObj)

at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.RunExecuteReader(CommandBehavior cmdBehavior, RunBehavior runBehavior, Boolean returnStream, String method)
at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior behavior, String method)
at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.ExecuteReader()
at <my code which checks the status of the stored procedure is listed here>

The point is that if the SQL user is made sysadmin it works. As I understood from the "Books online" the SQL Server agent uses the account specified using xp_sqlagent_proxy_account when executing jobs or commands for users who are not members of the sysadmin fixed server role.

I tried that too, the xp_sqlagent_proxy_account didnt print out any error, and "exec master.dbo.xp_sqlagent_proxy_account N'GET' "returned no records. Obviously the execution of "sp_help_job" still fails with the above exception.

How can I run "sp_help_job" with an user which is not part of the sysadmin role?

Critical .NET And SQL 2005 Bug

May 15, 2007

I have 32-BIT MS SQL 2005 running on Windows 2003 R2 platform. The code is 100% bug-free and works fine on staging and production. Production has an issue AT RANDOM TIMES. Most of the time, it works fine...connections are pooled and reused. Out of nowhere (very randomly), it will start opening new connections for each request and keep doing that until the DB server crashes (could not open connection exception). If I restart IIS, it works fine again...all connections are being reused (no more than 6 connections).  Just for fun, I restarted IIS again....it starts opening new connections for each request!! I restarted again, it now reuses existing connections. What's going on???  This has occurred 2 times on our production box. .NET ALSO has a SERIOUS bug where if you nest master pages or user controls, sometimes it will throw a compilation error on a LIVE site (microsoft admits that it's a bug in the engine and currently...there is NO FIX for it..there are patches...none of them work).

Critical Error

Nov 9, 2007



Greetings,

I am having a big issue now. I made what I thought would be a simple change to our reporting services application, which has been running smoothly for about 2 years. The change has caused my "forms authentication" to start throwing an error that I rember from a while back while testing. Our rporting server is down, sad to say. Has anyone had this problem.

The error : Client found response content type of 'text/html; charset=utf-8', but expected 'text/xml'.
The request failed with the error message:...

Changes made
1. Stoped RS web app in IIS
2. Changed the ASP.NET Config Settings(Report Server App)

a. Authentication Tab - cookie time out (changed to 60)
b. State Manegement Tab - Session Time Out (changed to 60)
3. Changed the ASP.NET Config Settings(Our aps.net app that displays the reports)

a. Authentication Tab - cookie time out (changed to 60)
b. State Manegement Tab - Session Time Out (changed to 60)
4. Changed the SessionState Timeout property in the web config file in our web app that displays the reports.
5. Restarted the Report Server app.
6. Recycled the app pools

Could not log in!
I am catching the above error in my web app's ReportExecution.LogonUser().
I rebooted the server and continue to get sqldump logs and this exception. This error occured when I was testing the redirect a while back but that issue was resolved. The only changes I have made are above.....

Application With Critical Database

Nov 6, 2007

Dear all
I am a pretty new in the development world fresh from uni. I am doing development on a system that has a security database. Access to the data in that database is pretty important. So in case the main server where the database is stored for soem reason fails or gets compromised i need to have a second copy with the most recent data in that database and keep the application up and running. The data i have is stored in a SQL 2005 database. What are the recomended aproaches for acheiving this needed reliability?
Would running the SQL Agent every 2 minutes do the trick? And replicate the database to another server and then have asecondary deployment on that server running as a backup? Or are there any other means?
Any advice is apreciated.
Sincerely

Critical Table Permission

May 12, 2008



Publc role has been grannted 'SELECT' privelege to syslogins and sysusers tables in the Master and GTSS database


The syslogins table contains all the logins that were created on the server. The sysusers table contains the users that are mapped to the database. Unauthorised access to these tables would reveal critical authentication info of other users

Restrictive permissions should be configured on critical database tables such as sysusers and syslogin.

We need to apply the transactional log for business hours (9-5) everyday to a oracle instance which will be seeded with SQL Data for once. And then every day the transactional log would be applied.

We need to do this as eventually this server is moving to oracle.

At this point if somebody could help me to read the transactional log that would be great.

Please Help (Sql Server 2000) Critical Error

Feb 4, 2004

Please any one can help me ?I have multiuser application ( VB 6.0 ) on SQL Server 2000 running.

Last night my Sql Server was writting info on the Log file of one database when the power accidentally shut down. In fact, the server was executing one Microsoft Data Transformation Service ( DTS ) which transfers data from one table to another.

This morning when the users tried to work with this database everything went wrong... I've not been able to attach MDF AND LDF files to SQL Server 2000 Desktop Engine.

Looking for what happened I found those Info/Error LOG events:

A)Starting up database 'pcserveis'.

B)ex_raise2: Exception raised, major=34, minor=48, severity=21, attempting to create symptom dump
C) "The transaction ( Process Id 5 ) was left in "interblockade" in Lock
resources with another process and was chosen as subject of the "interblockade". Execute the transaction again." ( Sorry about wrong words , i'm using a translation tool from spanish )
D) Could not undo log record (5019077:221:133), for transaction ID (0:15254626), on page (1:1917), database 'pcserveis' (database ID 11). Page information: LSN = (5019072:426:5), type = 1. Log information: OpCode = 2, context 1.. ( Error: 3448, Severity: 21, State: 1)

Problems Installing Critical Updates

Apr 10, 2007

Hi,

I'm upgrading a new dedicated sql server 2005 (64 bit) box that I just got to SP2. After I install SP2 there is 1 critical update.

Critical Update for SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2 (KB 934458)

When I install this, it says the installation has failed. I have uninstalled it and tryed reinstalling but I get the same result.

It's listed in the control panel as a program I can remove, however in windows update history it says it has failed. Also in windows update I no longer have the option to install it again, as though it has installed properly.

Anybody have these issues before? I'm not sure if its installed OK or not.

Thanks!

Critical Problem SQL Server 7.0 - Database Engine

Apr 28, 2001

We are a National Level Institutional Stock Broker in India providing trading platform to our Brokers to trade on Exchange nation-wide. We are using Compaq Proliant 8500 Serires computers in clusterd mode having RAM of 1.5 GB on each machine. We are using the Computer-To-Computer-Link (CTCL) solution / application for routing orders of brokers to the Stock Exchange. This application uses the SQL server 7.0 in clustered mode as back-end database on Windows NT Ver 4.0. On daily basis around 20,000 transactions are processed in the database.

Following are the Database Details
----------------------------------
1. Dat Size : 1890 MB
2. Log Size : 838 MB
------------------
Total Size: 2728 MB

3. File growth options: Automated file growth, By percent : 10
4. Maximum File Size : Unrestricted file growth

On April 25, 2001, we found that application was not getting initialize, we (technical team) checked all the procedures, which are getting triggered at that particular time and found all of them were ok, but application did not started.

We also suspected that one of the procedure might have been corrupted, so we re-compiled all procedures which get triggered before starting the application. After havind done so, the application was still not getting initalized / started.

We also executed following commands:

1. DBCC CHECKDB to check inconsistancy, if any but found none (log is available)
2. DUMP TRAN with no_log (To clear transation logs)

We also executed procedures one after the other sequentially, which were being executed before the application starts after binding once again.

After having done this, we also suspected that the problem might have been with "SQL Server 7.0 database engine" and therefore decided to re-start the computers, after which we found that the applicatio started without any hindrance / errors.

This has raised some issues as follows:

1. Has the database corrupted ? If yes, weather it is possible to run DBCC CHECKDB, SQL queries on a corrupted database ?
2. Was there any systems environment failure ?
If so, is it possible to run DBCC CHECKDB, SQL queries on a corrupted
database?
3. Is there any possiblity of Database Engine failure?
What can be the consequeces on Database Engine failure ?
4. Is it possible that Database Engine Failure is the cause for our case ?

Our some of the engineers are of the opinion that the SQL server need to be shutdown and re-started periodically.
1. Will this in any way avoid such re-currance in the future?
2. If this is true, we would like to have your technical feedback as to why this is necessary?

Should you require any further clarification, I shall be glad to furnish it to you in this regard.

I request you to give your techical feed back on an urgent basis as our applications are CRITICAL and needs UTMOST CARE, hence needs consistancy of database.

I shall be glad to receive your feedback at
my e-mail: gchavan@iseindia.com or (+91)(022-781 2389).

SQL 2000 Server Memory Issue! CRITICAL!

Apr 4, 2007

Good day everyone!

The issue I'm going to pose here has to do with SQL Server allocated memory BEING EXHAUSTED by an application (a simple data receiver from GPS units) when the number of units connecting to it is considerably increasing.
This happens to an extent that no more connections from the units are valid and therefore lots of data (Afterwards) is being lost.
This causes a real problem with the installations and the projects which are running the system.

I will hereby post all of the info which might be useful for any Database Experts among you, so you can perhaps help me figure out the source(s) of the mentioned problem, and possible solution(s) of the issue.

1- The Operating System used:
Windows 2003 Server (Ent. Edition)

2- The Database Server used:
Microsoft SQL 2000 Server

3- The amount of memory:
1 GB (but on some sites there are 4 GB and the same problem
is faced)

4- The conditions where the issue happens
When the amount of the received data - which gets written to
the SQL Server tables - exceeds a certain limit.

5- Number of applications used:
We are using two applications:
a- The receiver, which is a simple application that only
receives the data from the GPS units installed at the cars
of the clients' fleet(s), and writes them to the database
(Day and Night - running all the time), so the memory used
gets bigger and bigger till it floats the memory used by
MS SQL Server 2000. As a result of this the connections
made from the units furtherly to this point (to the receiver)
are not being received and written to the database.

b- the other application is quite heavy.. it does data
management on SQL Server 2000 and exhausts the CPU.
It reads from tables and makes analysis for GPS data...
This is done while "vehicle tracking".. so it makes
calculations on the received data and stores them into
output tables.

6- The programming language used in writing these 2 applications:
Delphi 7

7- What are we doing right now to handle this problem?
We need to flush the memory on periodical basis.
This is being done by stopping the SQL Server, or by
restarting the PC.
And it is not solving the problem entirely, especially that
there must be a way to handle this.
BTW, the memory is not being flushed when we turn the
application off.

8- What do we need to know?

a- We've found, after research, that there are "Temporary tables" or
objects in SQL Server 2000, that the DB system creates.. also page
files, and temp tables.
What are these for? And does handling them in a certain manner help
solve the problem?
b- Is there a way to monitor our applications to see where they are
increasing the usage of memory and how this is happening?
c- Is there a script that writes to the database that we can use to see if
the problem is from our applications? And in case it is, then is there a
command we should write or a function or script we should run in order
to flush the MS SQL 2000 Server periodically, so that it doesn't flood?


What comments can you have on this issue?
Are there solutions at hand?


I thank everyone for trying to help!

All the best :beer: :beer:

P.S. you can write to me at: database1980 (AT) hotmail (DOT) com

Critical Issue With ADO .Net Inside A SSIS Packages

Sep 11, 2006

Hi everyone,

I've got a serious problem with SSIS packages. We've built an application -done with Framework 2.0- which throw SSIS packages on demand -according a criteria on NTFS-
Everything's fine but those packages which own ADO .Net connections. When our application meet some of them appears in our log:

I attached you the snippet of code:


pkg = app.LoadFromSqlServer(ObjSSIS.sRutaDts & "" & ObjSSIS.sSSISName, ObjSSIS.sServer, "usrSSIS", "ninot", EventsSSIS)
Till here, fine no throws any event.


sResultDts = pkg.Execute(Nothing, Nothing, EventsSSIS, Nothing, Nothing)
'here throws OnError event when meet the task issued

If sResultDts = DTSExecResult.Success Then
...


No se pudo adquirir la conexión "SRVDESASQL2005.msdb.usrSSIS". Puede ser que la conexión no esté configurada correctamente o que no tenga los permisos adecuados en esta conexión.

Tranlate into english, more or less:

It doesn't acquire the connection "<server.database.user>." It could be that the connection is not fine customized or maybe permissions are not suitable for this connection.

At the same time we've verified that all data sources are available. In a fact that same packages from the server is launched without incidences (manually)

Please let me know any comment or further information or any link related with this problem. With OLE Db connections we haven't problems at all.

Thanks in advance,

Slow SELECT Blocking Critical INSERTs

May 20, 2008

Our company records live sales into an SQL Server database. The same tables that store the sale information are also used by a reporting interface to query sales figures, but occasionally a SELECT generated by the reports is so slow that it causes the INSERT operations to time out and fail.

We've tried increasing the CommandTimeout property in .NET of the application performing the inserts, but despite it being set to 90 seconds, it's still not enough to prevent the occasional sale from failing to record which is a big no-no for us. We've run the Database Tuning Advisor on the stored procedure that generates the SELECT for the reports, and it is now fully optimized but still this isn't enough. The tables are quite massive (millions of rows) and the SELECT requires JOINs to other tables, some of which are in a separate database on the same server.

Is there a solution to this problem, aside from increasing the CommandTimeout property to the point where no timeout errors occur? My concern is that doing this could increase the number of concurrent connections and we'd hit another limit, so it's not really solving the problem. Is there a way to configure SQL Server to always favour INSERTs over SELECTs? The reporting users won't really care if the reports are slower but it's critical to get these INSERTs up to 100% reliability.

I'm not a DBA (just a developer) so I don't have an intricate knowledge of databases and this problem is a bit beyond my level of expertise. Obviously we don't want to re-design our entire system, but we'll do whatever necessary to ensure we aren't failing to record sales.

One idea I had, which may be awful I don't know, is to submit these sales to an MSMQ and write some software that will read from the queue and insert the records from there instead. We could then deal with the timeout issue by just re-submitting the sale until it is accepted, then removing it from the queue.

MSMQ Or Service Broker For Mission Critical Applications

Nov 30, 2007

Hello,

I'm working on the design of a system that will have two queues. The first queue will take requests to do something. The second queue will hold the results of having done something. Both queues won't necessarily be on the same physical server. Clients reading/writing to the queue will not be using SQL server. Web service/WCF interfaces will be developed to interrogate/manipulate queues.

My question is: which is better - MSMQ or Service Broker; if I want reliable queues. I can affort to loose items off the first queue, but cannot afford to loose any result data on the second queue.

Can anyone make any recommendations please?

Regards,
Jonathan.

SQL Express 2005 For Buisiness Critical Database Or Use Full SQL Server?

Jan 27, 2008

We provide hardware and network support to a medical practice with 5 surgeons and 10 admin staff.



They are implementing a new medical practice software package which will hold all their business critical data including financials, patients, medical records etc. This runs on either SQL 2005 express or full SQL server.



The software vendor is proposing using SQL express only as the database will be << 4Gb



We are not application or database skilled and have concerns that the medical practice may not be getting the best advise from the software vendor.



Is SQL express just as robust and safe for critical data as the full SQL server database ? Technical €œgut feel€? is that it can€™t be or MS would not sell many licenses.



Comments would be appreciated. It is hard for us to suggest using a full SQL database unless there is a substantiated reason.
