View 1 RepliesHi All,
I am having a server where replication is set up between 2 differnt databases. It is currently running. I want to add a couple of tables to the replication. I tried using sp_addArticle, but after executing it, in the properties of the publication it shows the new tables, but at the database level the tables are missing.
I tried with sp_addsubscription but I am getting strange error:
Server: Msg 14100, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_addsubscription, Line 240
Specify all articles when subscribing to a publication using concurrent snapshot processing.
What can I do to publish the tables into the target database?
Thanks in advance.
In my local environment , i was setup transnational replication then i have added new article by using below script
EXEC sp_changepublication @publication = 'demo', @property =
N'allow_anonymous', @value='TRUE'
Go
EXEC sp_changepublication @publication = 'demo', @property =
N'immediate_sync', @value='TRUE'
EXEC sp_addarticle @publication = 'demo', @article ='employee',
[Code]....
But article not added and showing this error message The initial snapshot for article 'employee' is not yet available.
What is the issue, what can i do to add new article ? What did I mistake?
I have setup Transactional replication in SQL 2005 between two servers and have about 200 tables being replicated. The problem is that every time, I add or drop a table to replication, and start the Snapshot agent, it re-initializes every article and re-loads every article. This process takes 1 hour to complete and CPU usage goes to 100% during that time.
This behaviour seems very different from SQL 2000 where I would start Snapshot agent and only the relevant tables were added/dropped.
Has that functionality changed from 2000 to 2005? Am I not doing something right?
Thanks,
Amir
Hi
-- edited 26/02 to clarify the security model --
Using HTTPS merge replication
The subscriber was able to get the snapshot ok, then synchronise fine
However after adding an article to the publication and recreating the snapshot I get this error now at the subscriber
Microsoft.SqlServer.Replication.ComErrorException (0x80004005): A failure occurred when accessing 'usp_misc_dailyTasks_3.sch' due to an operating system error [2='The system cannot find the file specified.'] during Web synchronization. Ensure that the -InternetLogin user when using basic authentication and the user running the merge when using Windows integrated authentication has been granted access to the snapshot share.
at Microsoft.SqlServer.Replication.MergeSynchronizationAgent.Run()
The key properties when synchronising are as follows:
agent.PublisherSecurityMode = SecurityMode.Standard
agent.DistributorSecurityMode = SecurityMode.Standard
agent.InternetSecurityMode = SecurityMode.Standard
In order to create the subscription:
subscription.UseWebSynchronization = True
subscription.InternetUrl = webSyncUrl
subscription.InternetSecurityMode = AuthenticationMethod.BasicAuthentication
subscription.SubscriberType = MergeSubscriberType.Anonymous
subscription.SyncType = SubscriptionSyncType.Automatic
Thanks

Hi all,
I know that adding a column using ALTER TABLE to add a column automatically allows SQLSERVER 2005 to replicate the schema changes to the subscribers, however, I would like to add a new column to an existing article that is being used for merge replication, however, I don't want this column to be replicated. Re-initialising the subscriptions is not a option. Help would be appreciated.
I am using SQLSERVER 2005 (SP1).
First of all; My Oracle publication works fine when I don't explicit specify the shema_option parameter for the articles I'm adding to the publication. The reason why I then want to explicit specify the parameter is as following.
I'm developing a replication solution to get data from our production server (Oracle) to our Data Warehouse (SQL Server). The SQL Server (and the Data Warehouse code) uses the SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS collation. When I don't explicit specify the schema_option, the nvarchar columns of the replicated tables are created using the SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS collation and this results in some comparison errors, when for instance a select statement is trying to compare two nvarchar strings using different collations.
I've tried to specify the schema_option parameter as "@schema_option = 0x80" (Replicates primary key constraints.) to avoid the use of the SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CS_AS collation when creating the destination tables - I'm not sure it's enough? No matter what, I'm getting an error when I'm doing it (see below).

The questions are now whether I actually have a schema_option alternative for Oracle Publishing? If so, what is the solution, and eventually how can I avoid the error stated above?
If I'm not able to avoid the article columns getting created with the "wrong" collation, is there then any other obviously solution to the problem?
Thanks!

hi
i'm new to replication. i'm looking for a full article that explains Replication good, can u take a link to that article ?
thanks
Here's what my script boils down to when adding a new view (admin.replication_test):
Code:
EXEC sp_addarticle
@publication = N'<publication name>'
, @article = N'replication_test'
, @source_owner = N'admin'
, @source_object = N'replication_test'
, @type = N'view schema only'
;
If I check the GUI, the article appears to be ticked in the publication.
Generate a new snapshot.
View not found in replicated database!
Hi,
It would be very nice if some people out there, using merge replication can tell me their strategy to add Article through Enterprise Manager.
I have Merge Replication, I have new table which has to be replicated. I counld not find options in Wizard to add New article for replication.
Any Help will be appreciated.
Thanking you in anticipation
Cheers

I want to remove article from my Transactional replication, canĀ I just simply uncheck it from GUI, or it requires anything else.

I've created a merge replication a few days ago. it works correctly, but today when click synchronize publications, some of then encounter this error :
Data validation failed for one or more articles. When troubleshooting, check the output log files for any errors that may be preventing data from being synchronized properly.

Hi,
I'm setting up a heterogeneous transactional push replication with Sybase ASE 12.5.3 as subscriber. With management studio I try to create an procedure article with following properties
Copy extended properties : false
Destination object name : pGS_RefuseRequest
Destination object ownere : dbo
Action if name is in use : keep existing object unchanged
Replicate : Execution of the stored procedure
Create schemas at Subscriber : false
When I save the article and then the publication I got following error message:
Can not add artice 'pGS_RefuseRequest'.
Object was not found on server. Check if this object exists on the server. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Rmo)
That's realy strange because the wizard offered the procedure pGS_RefuseRequest in the list of possible articles.
Fortunatly I can create the article with following TSQL statement :
exec sp_addarticle @publication = N'RIGHTS_EDV_4T_pub'
, @article = N'pGS_RefuseRequest'
, @source_owner = N'dbo'
, @source_object = N'pGS_RefuseRequest'
, @type = N'proc exec'
, @description = N''
, @creation_script = N''
, @pre_creation_cmd = N'none'
, @schema_option = 0x00
, @destination_table = N'pGS_RefuseRequest'
, @destination_owner = N'dbo'
, @status = 0
go
Did anybody seen this bug before ?
It seems to be specific for heterogeneuous replication. In a pure MS environement the Wizard works fine!

There is a SQL Server 2008 R2 SP3 Clustered Instance that has Transactional Replication. It is by no means a large replication setup in terms of data/article count. SQL Server was recently patched to SP3 and is current on Windows 2008 R2 Patches.
When I added a new article to replication (via 2014 SSMS GUI) it seems to add everything correctly (replication tables/procs show the new article as part of the publication).
The Publication is set to allow the snapshot to generate for just new articles (setting immediate_sync & allow_anonymous to false).
When the snapshot agent is run, it runs without error and claims to have generated a snapshot of 1 article. However the snapshot folder only contains a folder for the instance (that does have the modified time of the snapshot agent execution) and none of the regular bcp/schema files.
The tables never make it to the subscribers and replication continues on without error for the existing articles. No agents produce any errors and running the snapshot agent w/ verbose output provides no errors or insight into any possible issues.
I have tried:
- dropping/re-adding the article in question.
- Setting up a new Snapshot Folder
- Validated all the settings and configurations
I'm hesitant to reinitialize a subscriber since I am not confident a snapshot can be generated. Also wondering if this is related to the SP3 Upgrade, every few months new articles are added to the publication and this is the first time since the upgrade to SP3 that it has been done.

I need help to add new fields in Transaction replication & also want to know how it will be replicated to Subscriber.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHey All - Another replication question:
Using VBScript in an ActiveX module of a DTS package...
Anyone have an idea how to add ALL articles to a Subscription.
The only way I can figure it is to load an array from sysobjects, then run sp_addarticle on each one.
Thanks for your help

Hi everbody,
Anybody tell me how to add new table in merge replication using Enterprise manager or T-sql.
Thanks in advance
Dear group,i have the following setting:satellite databases in different locations with the same structure (andsometimes identical data) need to be replicated into one centraldatabase. The databases hold information on machine results andmachines are numbered from 1 to n.Results for machine 1 in location 1 should be entered in the centraldatabase whereas results for machine 1 in location 2 should also beentered.Thus i would need a copy of the tables in the satellite database whichadds one column for "location id" (or something like that).Is there an easy way to accomplish this ? Seems to me that thereplication scenarios in the "replication wizard" for SQL-Server missout this case.Some hint at documentation or websites would be extremely helpful.Thanks + Greetings from ViennaUli
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi all,
I've been looking for the right stored procedure to create a push subscription for publication but i haven't had much luck so far. So I was wondering if you guys know which SP is appropriate, that'd be super great!! thanks guys!
note. the sp should run on the subscriber database.
thanks again
I have two machines running SQL Express that I am attempting to use as proxies for a client application as the security admin has deemed that outside clients can not connect directly to the main DB servers.
When I have one of the SQL Express boxes subscribed to my SQL 2005 standard server, everything is happy, but when I attempt to add the second SQL Express box as a subscriber, everything seems to blow up.
OK, I'm setup as a merge with updates and no filter since I want all of the servers to get all of the data. I'm also on a non-standard port but have my aliases setup, and I don't have any connection issues. When I run the subscription wizard from the management studio, it comes back with "Success", but about 2 seconds later, I get errors on both subscribers from the replication monitor. Oh, I am aslo setup for push subscriptions and am setup to run continuously.
Here is the error message from the rep. monitor.
Error messages:
No subscription is on this publication or article. (Source: MSSQLServer, Error number: 14050)
Get help: http://help/14050
The merge process was unable to deliver the snapshot to the Subscriber. If using Web synchronization, the merge process may have been unable to create or write to the message file. When troubleshooting, restart the synchronization with verbose history logging and specify an output file to which to write. (Source: MSSQL_REPL, Error number: MSSQL_REPL-2147201001)
Get help: http://help/MSSQL_REPL-2147201001
What I find odd is that It only dies when I try to add a second subscriber, and then it kills both of them. Any help or ideas on where I should look would be most welcome.
Thanks!
I have an existing publication in sql 2012 with 2 articles, and then I add 2 more articles. After that when I generate a snapshot, will the snapshot be generated for 2 new articles only or for all 4 articles?
I remember adding 1 new articles to one existing publication with 150 articles and when I generated snapshot, it was generated only for 1 article. But I don't remember clearly.
Does it behave differently for small and large number of articles?

someone told me that we can do that in older version but not now,right? :confused:

If I want to unpublish an article thru Enterprise Manager, it does not allow me to uncheck it at publication properties. It only allows me to uncheck articles if I delete the subscription first. Does anybody know how tp do this in Enterprise Manager without deleting the subscription?

Hi There
I hope someone can help me asap.
I need to alter a column on a replicated table.
So i execute sp_dropsubscription and sp_droparticle for the table for all publication to that article in the database.
Usually i just alter the table and then execute sp_adddarticle and sp_addsubscription afterwards and everything is cool.
However in this case after i drop the subscriptions for the article, when i try alter the table it says it is being replicated.
I query sysobjects and see that the table has replinfo = 1 , this is snapshot replication, but i only have transactional replication ? I used to have snapshot but that was dropped long ago.
I then query sysarticles and i find the table, however the pubid (publication id) for the table is equal to the publication id of another databases publication ??? I also have found in sysarticles articles with a publication id's equal to publications that do not exist, for example articles will have pubid of 2 , but if i run sp_helppublication on all user databases there is no publciation with an id of 2 ?
Please help, even after i drop all subscriptions to an article it seems that sql server thinks the article belongs to another databases publciation or publications that no longer exist?
Maybe there is some sort of cleanup sp i can run or something but it seems to me sql server has gotten articles confused with old deleted publications that no longer exist.
Therefore after dropping all subscriptions i still cannot alter tables as sql server think it is still being published but it is not!
Thanx
