Install SP1 Immediately After RTM Might Fail ... ?

Jun 28, 2006

Hi all,

maybe this is not a new issue? anyway:

Installing SP1 straight after the RTM (no delay between the finish of RTM install and start of SP1 install) might fail. This happened to me on an install of Analysis services install, but I guess it could happen on any install. I think in this case the reason is that the .NET Optimizer service is still busy generiting the native images of the assemblies and the SP1 install finds them locked.After a while, if you don't keep pushing the "Try Again" button you get an error message prompting to send the error report to MS (I got that twice), however in the background the installer continues. At the end the hotfix installation complete window states "Failure" for some components but the summary log contains "Not applied" (??).

If you let the optimizer finish its job then there is no issue...

Wonder how it works with silent install?

Add A New Column In Temp Table In Sp Cannot Be Used Immediately

Jun 18, 2007

I created a temp table in my stored procedure and then added a new identity column to it.
However, I am not able to use this new column immediately, it says column not found.
SELECT * INTO #temp FROM table_name
ALTER TABLE #temp ADD  __Identity int IDENTITY(1,1)
SELECT * FROM #temp WHERE __Identity >= 10
Here __Identity column is not found. If I just did SELECT * FROM #temp without the where clause, the final result does have the __Identity column correctly added to the table. Why can't I query it?
Thanks!

Kicking Off A Scheduled Report Immediately In An Ad Hoc Manner...

Mar 20, 2008

We have a number of scheduled reports in our system. But frequently, I
need to kick off one or more of them immediately at random times - to
run off schedule, so to speak. The only way I know to do this is to
actually modify the schedule to set it to run "Once", set the time to
run to be a minute or so into the future, then wait for the report to
run. Afterwards, I go back into the scheduler and re-establish the
original schedule.



Do you know of a way to do this without having to modify and disturb
the original schedule?

Thanks,

How To Extract Auto-generated Int Identity PK Field Value Immediately After It's Made ?

Sep 12, 2007

Ok, let's say that I do a following inline INSERT statement..... 
INSERT INTO Car ( carMake, carModel ) VALUES ( 'Honda', 'S2000' )
When I do this, a carId int value will automatically be generated because it is the Car table's PK and is an int identity.  How do I obtain this value so I can immediately use it in let's say, the following example.
INSERT INTO Person ( carId ) VALUES ( @carId ) ..... where @carId is the value I need
Maybe you would say I should do something like.....
SELECT carId FROM Car WHERE carMake = 'Honda' AND carModel = 'S2000'
However, let's assume that the carMake and the carModel fields are NOT unique.  I'm sure there's an easy way to extract the new identity value (maybe even in the same query) as the INSERT, but I just don't know how.
Thanks.

Merge Replication Downloading Rows Immediately After Uploading SQL 2005

Jan 9, 2007

Hi

I have noticed that four out of the 145 tables being replicated in my topology perform a mysterious update.

If I insert data at the subscriber then synchronise the upload is completed followed by immediate downloading of the same identical set of rows as updates.

Has anyone seen anything like this. I cannot see any difference in the filter joins or article settings compared to any other table in the system but these four consistently do this.

Any ideas?

Update On Machine Runs Immediately, Update On Linked Server Takes 8 Minutes

Jan 2, 2008

What's up with this?

This takes like 0 secs to complete:

update xxx_TableName_xxx
set d_50 = 'DE',modify_timestamp = getdate(),modified_by = 1159

where enc_id in

('C24E6640-D2CC-45C6-8C74-74F6466FA262',

'762E6B26-AE4A-4FDB-A6FB-77B4782566C3',

'D7FBD152-F7AE-449C-A875-C85B5F6BB462')

but From linked server this takes 8 minutes????!!!??!:

update [xxx_servername_xxxx].xxx_DatabaseName_xxx.dbo.xxx_TableName_xxx
set d_50 = 'DE',modify_timestamp = getdate(),modified_by = 1159

where enc_id in

('C24E6640-D2CC-45C6-8C74-74F6466FA262',

'762E6B26-AE4A-4FDB-A6FB-77B4782566C3',

'D7FBD152-F7AE-449C-A875-C85B5F6BB462')


What settings or whatever would cause this to take so much longer from the linked server?

Edit:
Note) Other queries from the linked server do not have this behavior. From the stored procedure where we have examined how long each query/update takes... this particular query is the culprit for the time eating. I thought it was to do specefically with this table. However as stated when a query window is opened directly onto that server the update takes no time at all.

2nd Edit:
Could it be to do with this linked server setting?
Collation Compatible
right now it is set to false? I also asked this question in a message below, but figured I should put it up here.

Execute Sql Server Agent Job Task - Job Immediately Returns Success... However Agent Job Is Still Running???

Nov 30, 2006

when I run a package from a command window using dtexec, the job immediately says success.
DTExec: The package execution returned DTSER_SUCCESS (0).
Started: 3:37:41 PM
Finished: 3:37:43 PM
Elapsed: 2.719 seconds



However the Job is still in th agent and the status is executing. The implications of this are not good. Is this how the sql server agent job task is supposed to work by design.

Configurations

Jun 15, 2007

Hello, I had a question I thought someone might be able to answer before I test my theory.



If I run an outer package through SQL Server Agent and specify it to use a configuration file, will the children packages it call also use the configuration file? My instinct is no it will not.



If this is in fact the case, would it be considered best practice to just specify the configuration file for each package through an indirect environment variable? Is it possible to set an environment variable on the set values tab within sql server agent?



Then my only concern is how would developers test packages on their machines, should they also set up the same environment variable on their machine?



Any thoughts?

Configurations

Apr 24, 2006

I have read many posts about configurations. However, in practice, I cannot solve a problem that is bothering me. I have connection managers (that manage SQL Server 2005 connections) configured in a local package. I have ProtectionLevel = 1 (By the way, where do you state that you want it "DontSaveSensitive", etc?). When I deploy the package to another computer (using the deployment utility) though, I get the error "The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager ... failed". Could someone tell me, very explicitly, how can I use configurations to solve this problem? Or are there other ways to solve the problem? The problem, of course, is that the connection managers' passwords aren't being migrated from a computer o another. Thanks a lot.

Leave The Connection Open Or Always Open And Close Immediately?

Jun 7, 2006

Hi there,
 
I got an approach like that:
1) Read something from DB - check the value, if true stop if false go on2) Read the second Value (another SQL Statement) - check the value etc.
Now I could open the connection at 1) and if I have to go to 2) I leave the connection open and use the same connection at 2). Is it ok to do that?
The other scenario would be opening a connection at 1), immediately close it after I read the value and open a new connection at 2).
Thanks for the input!

Configurations For Partitions.

Hi experts,

In SQL Server 2005 database we have partitioned a very big table into 30 partitions each holding few million of records.

Im just curious to know whether there are some configuration related to processors or system hardware in order to benefit from partitioning ? (Ex : If we have multiple processors Whether they need be configured to do a parallel processing ? )

Any real time experience (other than referring links) would be really helpful for me.

Package Configurations ...

Feb 6, 2008

I have a question about Package Configurations. I had developed a prototype that has connections defined to 2 DEV SQL Servers and runs fine in DEV. I created a Configuration XML file and changed the XML file settings to point to our 2 TEST SQL Servers. I ran this package without issues. However, I was expecting the 2 SQL Server OLE DB connections within BIDS to point to the TEST Server after the package ran. I still was pointing to DEV. Am I missing something here? Thanks in advance.

Package Configurations

Oct 19, 2006

Hi,



I have a package configuration for my SSIS packages to allow me to dynamically change the connection string of the connections in my packages. This was done so that when I deploy my packages to my development or test server, the packages would use either the development or test server name in the connection string. I have set the configuration up to use an environment variable to store the location of the config file (an xml config file). The package however does not seem to be using the environment variable though. If I change the location of the config file in the variable's value, it still points to the old location. Can someone please help.



Thanks

Package Configurations

Aug 5, 2007

Before I started using package configurations, I made several (wrong) assumptions. My primary use for configurations are to move packages between environments (dev, test, prod), so my config files only contain connection information.

My first assumption was I could create 3 different configuration files (XML) with the connection string properties for each environment. Because I use shared data source connections in my packages, these are the only properties I should have to store within my configuration file. Then I use indirect configurations, which I had a system environment variable set up on each server, called SSISConfigPath. On all servers, I have it pointing to a shared folder on our network so us developers can update the configuration files at will, if needed.

Now, in theory if I deploy all of my packages to the SQL Server MSDB on each of the servers, and schedule a job on each server, everything should work, right? Wrong.

First of all, we had to restart the SQL Agent service in order for the package to recognize there is a new system variable (similar to the Indirect Configuration "gotcha" that Jamie blogged about, but in this case, it wasn't a cmd window, but a windows service).

Next, an SSIS package doesn't first read the configuration file, but it tries to validate the connections that were originally stored in the package to begin with before replacing them. This is a problem when the environment you develop on is your local PC (laptop for example), and deploy to production, the SSIS package tries to connect to your laptop PC first, throwing an error because it cannot find it. If it can find your laptop, it succeeds, and only then switches the connection info with what is in the configuration file.

Can this "validation" step be disabled? It seems changing the "Delay Validation" = true on the package doesn't work for connections.

And when you open BIDs to run a package, the "Syncronize Connection Strings" dialog always appears. When you say OK, it doesn't stick and always asks you each time you open the file.

Please let me know what I should be doing, because this doesn't seem to work as flawlessly as I thought it should.

SQL Server Vs. XML Configurations

Jan 5, 2007

I have been experimenting with both XML and SQL Server Configurations. Management would really like to go with the SQL Server Configurations, but I seem to be having problems with them.

The main goal is to be able to create a configuration for each connection and have every package refer to its specific configuration, therefore in the future we could change say our SA password and only have to update this in a few places rather than for every package.

In order to experiment with the problem I am having I developed 2 identical packages, except one uses SQL Server Configurations and the other uses XML. The configurations save the exact same properties. With the XML package I can go into the configuration file and change say the password and initial catalogue properties and have these changes go into effect. With the SQL Server package these changes do not seem to take place. So I guess what seems to be happening is with the XML package the connectionstring seems to be generated with the other properties that have been saved in the configuration, but in the SQL Server package none of this seems to take place and the connectionstring just stays exactly as it is saved in the configuration file.

I was wondering if I just seem to be missing something or if anybody else has experienced this problem and found a solution.

Any help is much appreciated,

Sam

SQL Package Configurations

Nov 15, 2006

Hi,

Within the SSIS package i am currently developing I have a number of variables relating to folder locations. I have added these to a SQL configuration package as i'd like to be able to change these prior to the SSIS package being executed. I plan to launch the package by calling a SQL Agent job from a web page.

On this web page i'd like to be able to change the values in the SQL database so that the package runs with User specified folder locations.

If anyone has done this before i'd appreciate if you could suggest how best to accomplish this. At present i'm thinking of just interogating the created database but as there are no keys etc set up this may not make updating the table easy.

Many thanks,

Grant

Package Configurations

Mar 25, 2008

I have an SSIS Package that utilizes two Configurations at design time...

1. Environment Variable Configuration sets the root folder variable and subsequently several other variables within the package using expressions (adapted from Jamie Thompson's template package - thanks Jamie)

2. Indirect XML Configuration to set the connection string to the appropriate db.

I've got 3 environments in play.

1. My workstation, using BIDS to design / debug the package. For my PC, the Indirect Config sets the connection to our test server/database.

2. A test server. For the test server, the Indirect Config on the test server sets the connection string to the test database on that server.

3. A production server. For the production server, the Indirect config on the prod server sets the connection string to the prod database on that server.

Problem...

Running the package in BIDS correctly runs against the test db, no problems.

Running the package on the test server in SSMS (either in the Execute Package Utility or using the Agent) without specifying any Configurations on the Configuration tabs, runs fine against the test db.

Running the package on the prod server in SSMS (again, in the Execute Package Utility or using the Agent) without specifying any Configurations on the Configurations tabs runs the package against the test db.

Is this because I'm not specifying the Configuration I have stored on the production server to use the connection string for production?

Curiously, the Indirect Configuration I have setup to read an environment variable to set the root folder (for logging, etc) works fine without having to specify any configurations on the configuration tabs in SSMS. In fact, I don't think you can specify environment variable configurations on these tabs - they open a Browse window to search the filesystem for a config file.

Any clarification anyone can give me regarding these Configuration tabs, indirect configurations, and what their purpose is would be great. I've spent days researching, reading through the two books I have, etc, and there's not much out there on this.

Thanks!
