Ways To Determine Intermittent Slowdowns
Oct 3, 2005
For some reason my SQL Server slows down throughout the day for no apparent reason..
The database is 100 gig transaction replicated to 2 data warehouses.
Ive done the usual stuff like monitoring processes killing off blocking transactions but it doesn't seem to do the trick.
There are no jobs running at the point of slow-down so at this current time I am a little lost.
Is there some way to determine why these slow-downs are happening ?
The system becomes completely un-responsive during these periods !!
HELP !! :eek:

this is the source error for this error
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.

please any one can help me?

I have to made a change and want to see it this is possible. The column IDPRT# is used here as MAX. THe user wants to exclude a few of the items which skews the average. Can i also select the IDPRT# a second time? and then in the CRystal reports I can select not =? but will this mess up the MAX line in any way?
SELECT "OEIND94"."IDDOCD" AS INV_DATE,
"OEIND94"."IDORD#" AS ORD_NUM,
"OEIND94"."IDORDT" AS ORD_TYPE,
"OEIND94"."IDPRLC" AS PROD_FAMILY,
"OEIND94"."IDPR$C" AS PRICE_CODE,
"OEIND94"."IDCOM#",
MAX("OEIND94"."IDPRT#") AS ITEM_REF,
"ICPRT1"."IARCC4" AS PROD_TYPE,

Hi All,
My week starts on Monday rather than on Sunday which is default(US, English) in SQL Server and would like to change the same so I would get proper weeknumber and dayindex using DATEPART.
I am looking at different ways of setting DATEFIRST(SET DATEFIRST 1) in SQL Server 2005.
I could set in a stored procedure, but this isn't a feasible way for me because I am using .nettiers to generate by business objects and stored procedures. I need to alter the sp's everytime I newly generate the code and sp's.
I couldn't set it in a function which I was hoping initially. I understand this datefirst is stored in one of the sys table in MASTER DB and I couldn't find a straight forward way to change this.
Can anyone suggest me a way to set the DATEFIRST either at a database level or at a server level(probably by changing the sys table in MASTER DB).
Any help on this would be greatly appreciated.

How many ways are there to connect to a database in ASP.NET? Could someone list them in a 1,2,3... manner.

I have I rather complex query and need to display a Sum in different ways. Now I'm wondering if the performance improves if you nest the queries in the described way. To me it looks, as if the sum just has to be calculated once?
select SUM(tiempo) as time_minutes,
CONVERT(varchar(5), dateadd (minute,sum(tiempo),'1900-1-1 0:00'), 114) as time_hours,
SUM(time)* 0.95 as time_discount
from table
Select tiempo as time_minutes,
CONVERT(varchar(5), dateadd (minute,tiempo,'1900-1-1 0:00'), 114) as time_hours,
tiempo * 0.95 as time_discount
From (
Select Sum(tiempo) as tiempo
from table)a

Hey - I am trying to create a procedure that will retrieve information from multiple SQL Servers. For example, I want to use a select statement on a systems table. Instead of running it from each server, I would rather run it from one and get info on all the servers. To do this, I know that i can 'link' a Server and then make select calls to that server. Some of the other administrators have expressed concern with this. Are there issues that I should research before linking servers. Is there a better way to do what I want to do? Any Input would be appreciated.

Hi all,
I am just wondering is there any other ways to execute an integration service package other than using sql server agent, dos command and manually execute the package in BIDS? I am thinking of running the package on web, is this possible?
What I am trying to do is let user to run the integration service when they need to, so instead using SQL Server Management Studio to run the task being set in SQL Server Agent, I am thinking of something where user can log into a website (like the report server) and then run the integration, so that the data for the report server's reports are being update. Please help out if any know a solution to it. Thanks in advance.

We are experiencing problems intermittently.
Users report problems of various types including timeout messages. We investigate and find a user has acquired a lock which is blocking other users.
We contact the user and they have usually completed their activity and are not always aware of any problem despite them owning a lock.
When the user logs out of the application the lock clears and the system returns to normal.
Indexes have been rebuilt, auto update statistics is on.
Does anyone have any suggestions? :cool:

Hello.I would like to learn all the possible ways that we can access and modify data in ASP .net 2.0 programmatically.for example one way would be like this: StringBuilder sql = new StringBuilder();sql.Append(" SELECT *"); //count the total number of recordssql.Append(" FROM dbo.tblJobTitle "); //get the connection string from web servicesstring strConnection = new sqlconnection.SQLConnection().GetSQLConnectString(sqlconnection.SQLDSN.SCIC);//Use the Microsoft.practices SqlDatabase object to execute our sql.SqlDatabase SqlHelper = new SqlDatabase(strConnection);SqlDataReader reader = (SqlDataReader)SqlHelper.ExecuteReader(CommandType.Text, sql.ToString());the i can loop through reader and get the data OR I can create a DataSet like this: SqlDatabase db = new SqlDatabase(strConnection);
DbCommand dbCommand = db.GetSqlStringCommand(sql.ToString());
DataSet dst = db.ExecuteDataSet(dbCommand);I want to know if there is a comprehensive book explainaning all these possible ways to access and modify data using C# under ASP .net 2.0I really really apreciate this.Thank you very much.

Checked MSDN which said it was a permissions error, which isn't right, because the same account works for this db and several others all the time. Anyone else seen this?

We recently migrated a SQL 2000 DB to SQL Server 2005 SP2. We have a VB 6 executable that uses the SQL Server 2005 DB. Immediately we began getting intermittent errors when trying to run a Stored Proc on SQL 2005 DB. The two errors we see are:
Timeout expired
[DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
If you immediately try to run the same query, it usually will work. The queries are random and so are the errors. I have gotten the time out error in Server Management Studio a couple of times.
In the VB 6 App we are using MDAC 2.81. Her is the connection string:
Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;User ID=user;password=password;Initial Catalog=OASIS;Data Source=servername, portnumber
We added the port number to the DataSource in an attempt to troublshoot the issue, but it made no difference.
We have run sysinternals Process Monitor on a PC with the app running and we saw NAME NOT FOUND Results for Query Open actions for these DLLS:
C:Program FilesOASISCLUSAPI.DLL
C:Program FilesOASISRESUTILS.DLL
C:Program FilesOASIStdsapi.dll
C:Program FilesOASIS is the application path. Of course, they are not in the application path but they are in C:WindowsSystem32. They do not seem to be registered.
Here is an example of the code we use in a class to run a SP:
Public Function FetchPostings() As ADODB.Recordset
Dim cmFetch As ADODB.Command
On Error GoTo HandleError
Set cmFetch = New ADODB.Command
With cmFetch
.Name = "FetchObligations"
.ActiveConnection = gobjSecurity.Connection 'This is a connection string not a connection object
.CommandText = "spClaimFetchObligations"
.CommandType = adCmdStoredProc
.Parameters.Append .CreateParameter("ClaimID", adInteger, adParamInput, , mlngClaimID)
Set FetchObligations = .Execute
End With
ExitSub:
Set cmFetch = Nothing
Exit Function
HandleError:
gobjError.HandleError Err.Number, Err.Description, App.EXEName, "clsClaim", "FetchObligations", gobjSecurity.UserID
Resume ExitSub
End Function

I have VS 2005 and SQL CE 3.0. I sometimes get the a FileNotFoundException when I first use ExecuteReader. I believe this is because a dll has not been copied across because if I restart the emulator I can get it to work again.
Do I need to add a cab file/dll to my project to stop this happening?

This is either a bug, or I am crazy.
I have developed a report that pulls its data from an SSAS cube. The report is grouped on Fields!FacilityName. On each "page" of the report, I have information for the displayed facility.
At the top of each page in my report I have a textbox whose value is =Fields!FacilityName. Further down on the report I have another text box whose value is set exactly the same. When I preview the report, I always have a value in the upper box, but only sometimes have a value in the lower box. If I change the value in the lower box to just a text string, it will always display, but when I put in the actual field reference it does not. It always doesn't display for the same facility names. Remember, the upper textbox on the form always displays 100% of the time.
I have a Dundas chart in the middle of the page on the report between these textboxes, but another field that pulls parameters and even a matrix all render correctly below that chart.
They both have the same parent according to the properties. I have even copied and pasted the working textbox further down the screen, with no improvement. When I changed the value of the textbox to "=cstr(len(Fields!FacilityName))", on the pages when it wants to be blank, it reads 0, and on other pages it shows a larger number. But the other textbox on the screen will always properly show the FacilityName.
I have also tried changing the name of the textbox, settings output to YES instead of Auto. If I slide the non-working textbox up to the top of the page and the working textbox down to the bottom area of the page, the bevavior switches.
Does anybody know of rendering issues with textboxes showing the same infomation?

HI
We are using HTTPS anonymous merge subscriptions....
Sometimes when trying to synchonise, we will get the following error messages returned to the subscriber....
The upload message to be sent to Publisher '**thewebserver**' is being generated
The merge process is using Exchange ID '0F65CFCB-AF17-47DC-8D98-493A44C243E0' for this web synchronization session.
The Merge Agent could not connect to the URL 'https://**thewebserver**/client/replisapi.dll' during Web synchronization. Please verify that the URL, Internet login credentials and proxy server settings are correct and that the Web server is reachable.
The Merge Agent could not connect to the URL 'https://**thewebserver**/client/replisapi.dll' during Web synchronization. Please verify that the URL, Internet login credentials and proxy server settings are correct and that the Web server is reachable.
The Merge Agent received the following error status and message from the Internet Information Services (IIS) server during Web synchronization: [401 :'Unauthorized']. When troubleshooting, ensure that the Web synchronization settings for the subscription are correct, and increase the internet timeout setting at the Subscriber and the connection timeout at the Web server.
If I then go to a web brower, put in the HTTPS address, it brings up the logon dialog - I put in the admin username and password to confirm the connection and that's fine.
We try and synchronise again, and this time it works - it's as though I have 'woken' it up again and it's happy to play.
Is increasing the timeouts as suggested by the error message the way to go ? If so, where does one set the 'internet timeout setting at the subscriber', and the 'connection timeout at the webserver' ?
thanks

Hello,
I currently run a nightly replication from a windows server 2003 machine with sql server 2000 sp3 to a windows 2003 server machine with sql server 2005 sp1. I run a snapshot replication as merge is not supported from 2000 to 2005.
2 out 5 snapshots weekly fail with the following error:

I have setup the sql server 2005 agent service to automatic with a 'log on as' domain admin account. The sql server agent on the 2000 machine uses the local system account.
Does anyone know what i can try to fix this?

I'm having an issue with what appears to be SQL Server 2005 deciding to randomly ignore new connections.
I currently have two virtual servers - one running just SQL Server 2005, the other running Reporting Services, Windows Sharepoint Services and Team Foundation Server.
For 3 weeks, it was all working perfectly, then on Wednesday night the server (and both Virtual Servers) was rebooted after installing the latest updates for Windows. Since then, I've had this issue.
It will work fine for a while, then it'll start throwing loads of Errors and Warnings into the Event Log, all along the lines of unable to connect to the database. The Reporting Services Configuration utility throws up the same problem. Then randomly, it'll start working again.
If anyone has any ideas, they would be much appreciated as this is driving me crazy!
Thanks!

I am learning the Optimizer from the book "Querying Microsoft SQL Server 2012" for certificate exam 70-461. I really cannot understand how it explains the number of possible ways to execute a query joining three tables. the pseudo-query is:
SELECT A.col5, SUM(C.col6) AS col6sum
FROM TableA AS A
INNER JOIN TableB AS B
ON A.col1 = B.col1
INNER JOIN TableC AS C
ON B.col2 = c.col2
WHERE A.col3 = constant 1
AND B.col4 = constant2
GROUP BY A.col5;
The book says:"Start with the FROM part. Which tables should SQL Server join first, TableA and TableB or TableB and TableC? And in each join, which of the two tables joined should be the left and which one the right table? The number of all possibilities is six, if the two joins are evaluated linearly, one after another."
Q1: How could it be six possibilities? From my understanding, lets say, if the SQL Server has to join A and B first, and then join C, in this case I can think of 4 possibilities, which are:
1. When A Join B, Left: A, Right: B.
When Join C, Left: result of A join B, Right: C
2. When A Join B, nbsp;
When Join C, nbsp;When A Join B, nbsp;
When Join C, nbsp;When A Join B, nbsp;
When Join C, "line-height:13.5px;">
Q2: The section following the previous question says there are 4 different types of join.."This already gives four options for each join. So far, there are 6 x 4 = 24 different options for only the FROM part of this query."
How can it be 6 x 4? My understanding is 4 is only for 1 join, but in our case, there are 2 joins, so it should be 6 x 4 x 4.
