I would like to automate a simple process which involves trucating a table and importing records back in. What would be the simplest solution to automate this kind of process? I'd like to run this process twice a day.
Thanks!
Hi,
I want to automate the process of database integrity checks in sql server any suggestions how to do
We are using an MSDE database engine (1.0=sql7) as a report scheduler on a web server. I can access MSDE via SQL7 Enterprise Manager to connect and view MSDE, but cannot use the DTS and job scheduling as MSDE seems to lack needed components. Using Microsoft Knowledge Base article Q241397 as a guide, I was able to create a backup of the msdb database using stored procedures including sp_add_job, sp_add_jobserver,etc, that are already present in the msdb database.
My problem is that I need to create and schedule a job for another MSDE database called CE8. This database was created by the reporting app, and contains no stored procedures. It looks to me like only msdb has the needed job scheduling procs. Does this imply that I am supposed to schedule all jobs for all databases via msdb database, or will I need to copy all job scheduling stored procedures into the other CE8 database, then create a job? Hope this makes sense,
Randy
I have inherited a deployment running inside a custom .net application. I'm looking to deploy an updated version of a report to the report server. My question is there a manual way of deploying an RDL? I'm afraid of taking down the application entirely and I do not have detailed enough documentation to bring it back up. Thanks!

Hi,
I was trying to extract data from the source server using OLEDB Source and SQL Server Destination when i encountered this error:
"Transaction (Process ID 135) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Rerun the transaction.".
What must be done so that even if the table being queried is locked, i wouldn't experience any deadlock?

Hello all,
I am running into an interesting scenario on my desktop. I'm running developer edition on Windows XP Professional (9.00.3042.00 SP2 Developer Edition). OS is autopatched via corporate policy and I saw some patches go in last week. This machine is also a hand-me-down so I don't have a clean install of the databases on the machine but I am local admin.
So, starting last week after a forced remote reboot (also a policy) I noticed a few of the databases didn't start back up. I chalked it up to the hard shutdown and went along my merry way. Friday however I know I shut my machine down nicely and this morning when I booted up, I was in the same state I was last Wenesday. 7 of the 18 databases on my machine came up with
FCB:pen: Operating system error 32(The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.) occurred while creating or opening file 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataTest.mdf'. Diagnose and correct the operating system error, and retry the operation.
and it also logs
FCB:pen failed: Could not open file C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataTest.mdf for file number 1. OS error: 32(The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process.).
I've caught references to the auto close feature being a possible culprit, no dice as the databases in question are set to False. Recovery mode varies on the databases from Simple to Full. If I cycle the SQL Server service, whatever transient issue it was having with those files is gone.
As much as I'd love to disable the virus scanner, network security would not be amused. The data and log files appear to have the same permissions as unaffected database files. Nothing's set to read only or archive as I've caught on other forums as possible gremlins. I have sufficient disk space and the databases are set for unrestricted growth.
Any thoughts on what I could look at? If it was everything coming up in RECOVERY_PENDING it's make more sense to me than a hit or miss type of thing I'm experiencing now.
Dear list
Im designing a package that uses Microsofts preplog.exe to prepare web log files to be imported into SQL Server
What Im trying to do is convert this cmd that works into an execute process task
D:SSIS ProcessPrepweblogProcessLoad>preplog ex.log > out.log
the above dos cmd works 100%
However when I use the Execute Process Task I get this error
[Execute Process Task] Error: In Executing "D:SSIS ProcessPrepweblogProcessLoadpreplog.exe" "" at "D:SSIS ProcessPrepweblogProcessLoad", The process exit code was "-1" while the expected was "0".
There are two package varaibles
User::gsPreplogInput = ex.log
User::gsPreplogOutput = out.log
Here are the task properties
RequireFullFileName = True
Executable = D:SSIS ProcessPrepweblogProcessLoadpreplog.exe
Arguments =
WorkingDirectory = D:SSIS ProcessPrepweblogProcessLoad
StandardInputVariable = User::gsPreplogInput
StandardOutputVariable = User::gsPreplogOutput
StandardErrorVariable =
FailTaskIfReturnCodeIsNotSuccessValue = True
SuccessValue = 0
TimeOut = 0
thanks in advance

How do I use the execute process task? I am trying to unzip the file using the freeware PZUnzip.exe and I tried to place the entire command in a batch file and specified the working directory as the location of the batch file, but the task fails with the error:
SSIS package "IngramWeeklyPOS.dtsx" starting.
Error: 0xC0029151 at Unzip download file, Execute Process Task: In Executing "C:ETLPOSDataIngramWeeklyUnzip.bat" "" at "C:ETLPOSDataIngramWeekly", The process exit code was "1" while the expected was "0".
Task failed: Unzip download file
SSIS package "IngramWeeklyPOS.dtsx" finished: Success.
Then I tried to specify the exe directly in the Executable property and the agruments as the location of the zip file and the directory to unzip the files in, but this time it fails with the following message:
SSIS package "IngramWeeklyPOS.dtsx" starting.
Error: 0xC002F304 at Unzip download file, Execute Process Task: An error occurred with the following error message: "%1 is not a valid Win32 application".
Task failed: Unzip download file
SSIS package "IngramWeeklyPOS.dtsx" finished: Success.
The command in the batch file when run from the command line works perfectly and unzips the file, so there is absolutely no problem with the command, I believe it is just the set up of the variables on the execute process task editor under Process. Any input on resolving this will be much appreciated.
Thanks,

I am designing a utility which will keep two similar databases in sync. In other words, copying the new data from db1 to db2 and updating the old data from db1 to db2.
For this I am making use of the 'Tablediff' utility which when provided with server name, database, table info will generate .sql file which can be used to keep the target table in sync with the source table.
I am using the Execute Process Task and the process parameters I am providing are:
WorkingDirectory : C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft SQL Server90COM
Executable : C:SQL_bat_FilesSQL5TC_CTIcustomer.bat
The customer.bat file will have the following code:
tablediff -sourceserver "LV-SQL5" -sourcedatabase "TC_CTI" -sourcetable "CUSTOMER_1" -destinationserver "LV-SQL2" -destinationdatabase "TC_CTI" -destinationtable "CUSTOMER" -f "c:SQL_bat_Filessql5TC_CTIsql_filescustomer1"
the .sql file will be generated at: C:SQL_bat_Filessql5TC_CTIsql_filescustomer1.
The Problem:
The Execute Process Task is working fine, ie., the tables are being compared correctly and the .SQL file is being generated as desired. But the task as such is reporting faliure with the following error :
[Execute Process Task] Error: In Executing "C:SQL_bat_FilesSQL5TC_CTIpackage_occurrence.bat" "" at "C:Program Files (x86)Microsoft SQL Server90COM", The process exit code was "2" while the expected was "0". ]
Some of you may suggest to just set the ForceExecutionResult = Success (infact this is what I am doing now just to get the program working), but, this is not what I desire.
Can anyone help ?
Assuming that I have a table [users] in a MSSQL 2005 database. the table has two columns. [userId] and [password].
I have an aspx with C# page with two textboxes and a button.
I want to let the user login or send him an error message if the password or the username does not match from the table in database.
I always made this possible through the template database from administrating the website. but never tried to do it as simple as that. I'm lost here!
How can I do it?
In SQL 7.0 jobs that have been scheduled start correctly, but jobs will not start when requested manually. All services are running.
The only way to fix this problem has been to reboot the server.
Does anybody have any ideas what might be causing this situation.
TIA,
Philip
Is there any difference starting a DTS package manually or running as a scheduled task.
There is a DTS package that I start manually from my PC and runs for 40 minutes and during this time I cannot access Enterprise Manager.
Hi,
I have only ever created and deployed SQL 2005 Reports to the report server using Business Intelligence Studio. I have a client who's network will not allow me to remote connect to their Reporting server so that I can deploy their reports.
If I deploy the reports to my own report server, how can I then manually upload them to the Report Server using their Report Manager instad of my Business Intelligence Studio. The Upload files option is only looking for 1 file at a time, however the Business Intelligence solution have the files split up instead of in one neat package.
Cheers
Jason
I never had to use DTS in MSSQL 2000 but I'm finding a need to use SSIS quite a bit in a new position. I know this is subjective, but I looking for suggestions for a reference book with good examples and tutorials.
TIA
I recently built a SQL Server x64 server, where I changed the default install path of SSIS. My reason for doing so was to move the SSIS engine off of the system volume, onto a different set of spindles, to reduce potential contention between the OS, the SQL Engine and the SSIS Engine. It is also documented in BOL as an option for the components.
The 64-bit runtime installed fine on the new volume, however, the 32-bit runtime was not installed at all. I checked Program Files (x86) and the directories I chose during the initial install, but only the 64-but runtime exists on the server. Since 64-bit drivers are limited (to put it mildly), I would say about half of the packages I run through jobs require execution of the 32-bit runtime to work.
BOL doesn't seem to indicate that the 32-bit will not install if the default is changed, but the following note indicates that I would not even be able to uninstall/reinstall the components back to the system drives:
A single installation path is shared between SQL Server Integration Services, Notification Services, and Client Components. Changing the installation path for one component also changes it for other components. Subsequent installations install components to the same location as the original installation.
I am wondering if there is a command-line install option to ensure the 32-bit runtime is installed, or if there is a way to install the 32-bit SSIS runtime manually. And if not, can the registry be edited to force a re-install back to the default path?
Any ideas?
I'm trying to install SQL2005 Express Edition, the adv. version that includes SSRS. The installation fails because it cannot upgrade the existing SSRS2000. I tried to uninstall the latter from the Add/Rem. Programs, and I get "Fatal Error during installation". IIS was stopped prior to the uninstall attempt.
SSRS2000 will thus not uninstall. How can I do a manual uninstall of it? I need to retain my SQL2000 instance, so the manual uninstall of SSRS must not injure it.
I'm pulling data from Oracle db and load into MS-SQL 2008.For my data type checks during the data load process, what are options to ensure that the data being processed wouldn't fail. such that I can verify first in-hand with the target type of data and then if its valid format load it into destination table else mark it with error flag and push into errors table... All this at the row level.One way I can think of is to load into a staging table then get the source & destination table -column data types, compare them and proceed.
should I just try loading the data directly and if it fails try trouble shooting(which could be a difficult task as I wouldn't know what caused error...)
Hey all. I've got a DTS package that's scheduled to run after business hours on the last day of the month. This package copies some tables from an offsite SQL Server, then runs through a series of SQL Statements and finally exports an excel file with the results.
My problem is that the DTS will run if I manually start it, but the scheduled job always fails. Of course, the error I get is that the job failed at step one, and I have no other info.
I'm not a heavy DBA (mor eon the client app side of things), so I'm unsure as to how I can dbug this. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

is there a way to start validation of external metadata manual?
My problem is this:
The package uses a variable as connectionstring for flatfile source, and another variable for the destination table. Running the package gives a warning about external metadata that needs to be updated. Normally I update this data by just opening the data flow, and answering the question for updating with yes. This time that deosnt work, I think because the variable is not set, so there can not be any conflicts with external metadata.
I dont want do disable validation, but just validate one time and then save the package.
Any ideas?

Hi guys
when we do manual Database shrink at normal office hours does it make any issues
or best way to control it
1. Does it lock database and runs the shrink statement.
2. at time of shrink users allowed or not.
3. transactions can be committed.
Hi Folks,
I am having this table locking issue that I need to start paying attention to as its getting more frequent.
The problem is that the data in the tables is live finance data that needs to be changed and viewed almost real time so what I have picked up so far is that using 'table Hints' may not be a good idea.
I have a guy at work telling me that introducing a data access layer is the only way to solve this, I am not convinced but havnt enough knowledge to back my own feeling up. (asp system not .net).
Thanks in advance

We have a scenario where we want to lock and unlock manually some rows in a table in SQL CE database .First the rows we need should be locked. By using a select query the locked rows will be read and processed in front end. Only if the process is completed in front end, manually I need to unlock rows which I have locked earlier. When rows are in locked state no body should be allowed to access that rows . ( should not allow anybody even to put a select query on that locked rows).
At the same time appending rows in the table should always be allowed.
Is it possible to achieve the above scenario?

I'm trying to install SQL Mobile from a Windows XP SP machine to a Dell Axim X51v mobile device.

I am trying to create a process to automate the FTP process and then IMPORT to a table. Once Import is complete, I would like to move the file from the FTP server and rename it. I tested the "commands" via CMD and it works. I then created a store procedure with the DOS commands to rename/move the source file. The command executes and deletes the file from the source, however, the copied files to a different destination disappeared. I did a search in my local hard drive(testing using my local folders), but can't find where the copied/renamed file went.
HEre is the portion of the commands:
SET @cmd ='Copy "C:Documents and SettingsegllareMy DocumentsBoxtestData.txt" "C:Documents and SettingsegllareMy DocumentsArchiveCopybox.%random%.bak"'
EXEC master..xp_cmdshell @cmd
GO
Can you please tell me what's wrong with this,
or direct me to a sample store procedure I can model..
TIA
