Does anyone know a process for repairing a corrupt syslogs table (mssql 6.5). I have tried checkdb, newalloc and rebuilding the extents. All the latter did was screw up the device assignment. Any suggestions?

Restoring a database from a backup copy is impossible.
Alexandr.
I have a bank and your SYSLOGS is growning everyday.
I do not can stop this.
I try stop and start the SQL, DBCC CHECKTABLE, CHECKDB, DUMP TRANSACTION and other things.
Resize the space is not a good solution, because SYSLOGS cannot have this size.
I have a problems with syslogs being filled constantly and running out of space for my users to get anything done. Me and another consultant thought that it may have been due to the fact that the logins for this database were corrupt and a query was run to update certain table. Good thought but we changed it to another database and it occurred again. Question? What can cause this too occur and what can I do to prevent it from happening? I am going tonight to delete database on previous server and reinstall the sql script to create database and restore from a backup and hopefully correct this problem. What does anybody think about this situation?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI have a large database that I am trying to BCP into. The BCP is approximately 12 million rows.
I have used the '-b' option for every 20000 records. Doesn't that clear the transaction log? I have multiple
BCP jobs that need to be run of this size. I am having problems with syslogs filling up which
I believe is just a reference to the transaction log? This has me confused because after the BCP I
check the transaction log size in EM and it looks empty. Can anyone help?
Hi,
i am porting data using bcp. Everytime my syslogs table is running out of space. I am not able to get the data. Why my syslogs is filling everytime. I did trucate log also, still my syslogs table is full.
This is 65 environment, it is very urgent pls any one respond to it.

My tempdb keeps filling up. A look at sysindexes indicates that all of the space used is in syslogs. Running dump tran (no_log, truncate_only), dump database, and checkpoint
give no relief. No transactions are open. Log and data are on shared devices (2MB on master device, 1024MB on a dedicated tempdb device).
Why won't my tempdb log dump off?
Thanks,
Chris
We are using SQL 6.5 and we have had problems before with our SEM reporting an incorrect value for the log size when we had just truncated the log. I would run DBCC CHECKTABLE (syslogs) just like MS Tech article Q183100 states and it would update sysindexes and correct the problem. That was on a database that is only 500mb and only has 21 rows in syslogs and it would take only a few second to run the checktable command. Now I have to run it on a database that is 5gigs and has 2,877,358 rows in syslogs. My concern is that this will take an extremely long time to run.
Does anyone have any ideas on how long this could run?
I have a MS SQL Server 6.5, SP5A database running in a MS Cluster Server environment. The transaction log (500MG)is dumped every 30 minutes to control the size and ease the point in time recovery. I have noticed that many times throughout the day, when you do a sp_spaceused on the database, the transaction log space doesn't get reported as going back to zero or near zero. It more or less stays where it was at, maybe a few MG relief. When I look at the output from the dump transaction statement (Dump Transaction dbname to dbname_tlog_dump with NOINIT, STATS), it reports that many, many pages have been dumped. However, I have been watching the sp_spaceused and it doesn't really seemed to be reflected in the numbers. (Or even in the Enterprise Manager Tool/Manage Databases - which I know has been known to report incorrectly). I have had to run dbcc checktable(syslogs) to ensure that the transaction log doesn't fill up.
Question: Does this hurt anything on recoverability by running dbcc checktable(syslogs)? Does anyone know of a bug around space not being freed in SP5A or in a MS Cluster Server environment? The application is relatively new, so I don't discount the fact that something could be going on there as well. Ideas?
I inherited an application (or two) that run on SQL Server 6.5, which Ihaven't used in years, and am having a problem. I get the error:------------------------------------------------------------------------Can't allocate space for object 'Syslogs' in database 'master' becausethe 'logsegment' segment is full.

I know there probablyaren't many of you still using 6.5.Regards,Brian

The ldf file of a db was deleted by mistake. This was done whilst the SQL Server Service was still running. The db was not detached cleanly. I ran sp_detach_db on the db and tried re-attaching but got the error message:
"Database [dbname] cannot be opened because some of the files could not be activated".
Subsequently I have tried creating a new db called the same as the old one. Stopping the MSSQL service, copying over the mdf and re-starting the service. The db still comes up as suspect and the error log shows "Device activation error. The physical file name 'D:LogsETERBK_Log.LDF' may be incorrect". I have tried copying over the new ldf to the correct location but the same message appears.
I am not interested in getting the data back but would like to get back the stored procedures. Can anyone help this is urgernt?
Have a corrupt SQL database that I am unable to repair using any of the repair options with DBCC CHECKDB. Below is the output from the repair_allow_data_loss option.

I had installed a third-party software on my server and that corrupted my Master DB. Over the weekend when we bought SQL server down, we could not bring it back up. I had to re-install SQL server and then restore all my databases from the backup. Is there a better way of doing this???

Hi everybody,
I have a strange problem with one of the jobs created through a maintenace plan. The idea is that every 2 hours a transaction log backup is created and backups older than 2 days should be removed. This worked for several months without a problem, but suddenly today the job reports failed as status.
I looked into jobhistory but all I got is the following message:
sqlmaint.exe failed. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 22029). The step failed.
Strange enough reports the sqllog that the t-log has been backed up succesfully. The files are on disk and I can restore them without a problem.
Any ideas what is going on ???

Hi All,
I am working in a test environment where I need to corrupt a database for test purpose/R&D. After corrupting the database, I ran the DBCC CHECKDB (pubs, repair_fast) and then DBCC CHECKDB (pubs, repair_rebuild) commands. But DBCC is not fixing the corrupt database.
My question is why DBCC is not fixing the corrupted Database? Is that a limitation of DBCC or is there any other way/command or tool to fix the corrupted database other then restoring from the previously backed up file.
The following are the steps that I followed to corrupt the database:
I used the following script (available in the script section of www.swynk.com) to corrupt the pubs database.
sp_configure allow, 1
go
reconfigure with override
go
update sysindexes set FirstIAM = 1234
where id = OBJECT_ID('roysched')
go
sp_configure allow, 0
go
reconfigure with override
go
Then I did a select * from roysched. I got the error:
Server: Msg 5180, Level 22, State 1, Line 1
Could not open FCB for invalid file ID 53764 in database 'pubs'. Table or database may be corrupted.
The pubs database got corrupted. Now, I want to fix this error. So I set the pubs database to single user mode and ran the DBCC command :
DBCC CHECKDB (pubs, repair_fast) that doesn't help so I ran the DBCC CHECKDB (pubs, repair_rebuild) command.
I got big DBCC output. I doesn't seems to fix the pubs database. When I did a select * from roysched again it gave the same corruption error.
I would appreciate any help in this issue.
Thanks

Hi,
I am receiving an Msg 2540 on a database when I perform the DBCCs. It looks like the indexes on this one table got corrupt. I know this because when I perform the DBCCs with the noindex option then I do not get any errors. I tried to drop and recreate the indexes (two indexes - one clustered and one unique) but to no avail. The dbccs continued to produce the error.
If someone has any ideas please respond. This is a prodn problem and so any input would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks again

I have been having problems with the SQL 7 server when temporary tables are being created, so I ran a DBCC checkdb against tempdb,
and this is what came back. When I try to run the dbcc with repair_allow_data_loss it says the database must be in single user mode.
This option is not allowed in tempdb. So now what? Does any one have any suggestions?

This morning no one was able to connect to the SQL server. At the server, the RAID set showed no activity. I could not bring up any applications. When clicking the start button, it would take 5 minutes to get a response. I connected to the server from a different machine and tried to restart the SQL services, without success. I could access the Event Viewer Application log. All entries in the log read "DB-LIBRARY error - SQL Server connection timed out." The SQL error log listed the following error " Lazywriter: LRU list is corrupt, bhead 0xe50040, bnew 0, bold 0x130bb00, stat 0x1004/0, page 0x1e1608, bufno 0, freebufs 5528, freelist 0xf1bfe0

What does this error indicate? We have received this error in the past and have upgraded our RAID controller because. This is the first time we have had this error since upgrading the controller a month ago.

After implementing a recommendation to perform dbcc checkalloc before nightly backup, I began getting the error below on msdb. Books Online suggests restoring from a known clean backup. We have only been using SQL Server for a few weeks and it seems that all our backups of msdb have the same problem. Is there any way of correcting this problem?

Hello!
I'm intrested in all possible ways to corrupt data or log files in SQL server 2000 except of manualy editing them or cutting the comp's power abruptly.
Thank you.
Very strange. I suspect McAfee Anti-Virus was run against SQL 6.5 files, but don't know for sure. Now server won't start. Rebuild master, it starts. Restore Master, it hangs. Rebuild master, Disk ReInit & ReFit devices, user database and server hangs while recovering db log on restart. A backup was made after the corruption got into db, so restoring db has same result, hang. Cannot open db to begin anything. Help?

To make a very long story short, we had a SQL server that experienced problems as a result of bad sectors within one of the drives within a RAID5. Although the drive was replaced the server was never the same and we were forced to perform a migration.
After the migration we began noticing that the server had corrupt data. This was noticed after our applications began erroring out. We determined the corrupt table using DBCC CHECKTABLE and moved the data from those tables into a new table.
Our applications are now working without error, but now it seems as though our indexes are broken which would make sense becuase the tables have essentially been renamed. During an attempted DTS, I selected the option to NOT copy over indexes. I am getting the same error within a DTS as I am within the servers event logs.
Page (3:68379), slot 23 for text, ntext, or image node does not exist.
or
[SQL-DMO]Code execution exception: EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION
This is one of the errors that helped determine that the database was corrupt in the beginning. To make it worse, our backups are useless becuase they will not restore. In order for me to use a backup, I have to copy the MDF and LDF from the production server and copy to the test environment server and then attach it. From the test server is where I was able to succesfully backup and restore.
I would have contacted MSFT a long time ago when this all got started. Unfortunately, I work for a company that will not spend the money on asking MSFT for help. I fear that the long this goes on, the worse it gets.
Please keep in mind that their is a lot of detail that is too must to detail here.
My question is, what would be the best way to essentially start over without losing the data? I assume that since a DTS is failing I am basically "SOL".
Does anyone have any suggestions?
Thank you all for your replies.
Hi
I have a table that keeps getting corrupt all the time. If I do a dbcc checktable, it says the primary key is corrupt. I can fix this by dropping the PK and creating it again, then the table is fine for a while. Problem is, this keeps happening every week! It's quite a big table (15.8 mil records), so this is timeconsuming to drop and recreate PK...
When trying to query the table, it returns the following error:
Attempt to fetch logical page (1:680898) in database 'dbCustomer' belongs to object 'tblPlayer', not to object 'tblTransactions'.
tblTransactions is the table that gets currupt.
The logical page number is different every time as well, so it's not the page it self causing the problem.
The table is updated via transactional replication. The source is in Cape Town, South Africa and the destination in Canada, North America. We do have many other tables being replicated in this manner for many years, but none have given this problem before.
Does anyone have some advice as to what I need to look at maybe? I'm not really sure where to start looking for the cause of the problem.
Thanks,
TeaaZA
We have a table (> 4,000,000 rows) that appears to be missing data, but if we copy the table using "insert into new_table from bad_table" some of the missing data mysteriously reappears. I am assuming there is something wrong with the database, but I don't know where to begin. Can anyone give me some idea of what might be wrong? Thanks in advance!
