Data Sync Or Merge Replication
Mar 28, 2008
thanks 4 ur rpl..well i have a simple doubt if u can guide me it will b gr8 help..well i am developing an application of location based services, in which i am going to store my data on SQLserver 2005 and will fetch the data from it when the user logs in to the user's PDA device so that a user can work offline on the data when there is no connection and when he gets the connection he can synchronize the data with SQLserver 2005. so now i m confuse whether i should use the merge replication or ado.net synchronization framework or RDA?what is the difference between merge replication and synchronization and which is better?

I have the merge replication (Push)Â for SQL Server 2008.The right-click option for Start and Stop Synchronizing in subscriptions has been disabled. How can I stop the merge replication and start again ?
This error happened 1 week after I created the merge replication. The merge data cannot sync to subscriber and only solution I can use is drop and re-create the merge replication again but error would be re-occur a week later. The merge replication work fine before and start from middle on May 2015, but it keep happen right now.

All,
I am trying to configure merge replication to a SQL CE database using web synchronization.
It works if IIS is on the same box as the SQL Server publisher but when I attempt this using separate boxes I get the following message.
Getting this message
Error messages:
· The schema script 'C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLReplDatauncPUBSERVER_TESTGOLFTEST_TESTGOLFTESTPUBFILTER20070601105864TESTTransType_2.sch' could not be propagated to the subscriber. (Source: MSSQL_REPL, Error number: MSSQL_REPL-2147024893)

Get help: http://help/MSSQL_REPL-2147201001
I have followed every bit of advice I can find in the MSDN forums, ensuring that the distributor is writing to a UNC and that the perms for the process are correct.
The 2 test servers are not in a domain and I wonder if this is the issue but connectivity between the 2 servers does not appear to be an issue as I am using administrative ids for connectivity for this test.
BOL is all over the place regarding this subject and I am linked out (perhaps the info I need is in there but who can find it?)
Any guidance would be truly appreciated.

We are running merge replication. My identity value was out of sync and the inserts stopped working. I Reseeded the identity value to 1500000 and ran "sp_adjustpublisheridentity" which set that to the new range (and table constraint)Â in the MSMerge file and table. I discovered my error and Reseeded the table back to 150000. How to I get the new range to be created when it is LESS than 1500000 in the MsMerge file???? Can I use the sp_restoreidentity....???

I am using a merge publication set to synchronize schema changes. Why am I getting the following message when I try to sync after having added columns in the publication database using ALTER TABLE statements?
The schema definition of the destination table ... in the subscription database does not match the schema definition of the source table in the publication database. Reinitialize the subscription without a snapshot after ensuring that the schema definition of the destination table is the same as the source table.
Also, why doesn't reinitializing the subscription with @upload_first = false not fix the problem?

Hi
I am trying to setup merge replication using web sync. I keep on getting the message: The Proxy Auto-configuration URL was not found. Yes I have read all the postings telling me to check my internet explorer settings concerning proxy server and auto-detection - I am not using a proxy - auto detection is unchecked.
Does anyone have another clue?
Thanks

Hi;
We are performing merge replication between SQL Server 2005 and SQL Server Mobile with more than 1100 handheld, and recently replications are terminating with eror code 80040E19.
We can only avoid the problem by deleting the related user's partition directory and reruning the related user's dynamic snapshot.
Any advice on this issue would be appreciated
Thanks,

If anyone could confirm...
SQL Server 2000 SP4 to multiple SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition on PDAs. My DB on SQL2k is published with a single dynamic row filter using host_name() on my 'parent' table and also join filters from parent to child tables. The row filter uses joins to other tables elsewhere that are not published to evaluate what data is allowed through the filter.
E.g. Published parent table that contains suppliers names, etc. while child table is suppliers' products. The filter queries host_name(s) linked to suppliers in unpublished table elsewhere.
First initial sync with snapshot is correct and as I expected - PDA receives only the data from parent (and thus child tables) that matches the row filter for the host_name provided.
However - in my scenario host_name <--> suppliers may later be updated E.g. more suppliers assigned to a PDA for use or vice versa. But when I merge the mobile DB, the new data is not downloaded? Tried re-running snapshot, etc., no change.
Question: I thought the filters would remain dynamic and be applied on each sync?
I run a 'harmless' update on parent table using TSQL e.g. "update table set 'X' = 'X'" and re-sync. Now the new parent records are downloaded - but the child records are not!
Question: I wonder why if parent records are supplied, why not child records?
If I delete existing DB and sync new, I get the updated snapshot and all is well - until more data added back at server...
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Is it possible (or not) to have dynamic filters run during second or subsequent merge?

I have 3 SQL databases: A, B and C. A and B are branch databases while C is the central (HQ) database. A & B will be constantly updated while C will updated occasionally and usually will be used for reporting/data browsing. Even though A & B are from different branch, they do have share some data records.
Every day, I will have to sync A & B's new/updated data to C and C to A/B. I know I can use Replication but I can't. You see, A & B are located in our own branch server while C was hosted on a third-party server. The webserver provider for C would not allow me to do any Replication on C.
What other alternatives that I can use to synchronise all 3?
DTS? XML transfer? It looks as if I have no choice but to write my own sync scripts? :((
Anyone has encountered similar situations? Any recommended SQL Tool programs?
Please help. I'm at a loss of what Im going to do.

Hello,
We have 5 subscribers trying to replicate via web synchronization. Two of the subscribers get the following message and the other three are fine. Any ideas on what the problem is or where to troubleshoot? Thanks in advance.

Hi,
is there a way to ensure a merge subscription is synchronised before it is removed from the publisher using SMO? - (it is a push subscription)
I thought I had it as there is a MergeSynchronizationAgent object on the SubscriptionDatabase object, but calling Synchronize() on this throws an exception saying it can't contact the publisher.
Any help would be really appreciated, thanks.

Dear ppl,
I have a question for you. One of our client has asked us how is the data secured over the air during Replication?
I have read that Merge Replication uses TLS (Transport Layer Security) protocol to secure the data over the air. But I was wondering if it is all done automatically ? Or do we need to install certificates like for SSL.
We have a Windows Mobile 5.0 application using SQL Mobile that runs over 50 devices and they all synchronise with a single Publisher SQL Server 2005 using GPRS connection. We haven't got any SSL certificates installed on the server.
Now how can i make use of TLS in my application to secure my data over the air (using TLS)?
Regards

We had merge replication setup between 2 tables, Table A and Table B using SQL 2000. This was working 100%. The users asked to disable updated/deletes to both these tables if data existed on 2 other tables. Table AA and Table BB. We implemented it as follows:
1) Created Insert/Update/Delete triggers for Table A & B. It basically check for Table A is there a record in Table AA, if it exists, raise an error and don€™t commit.
2) Removed all foreign constraints from Table AA and BB
3) Added Table AA and BB to the current replication.
Then all hell broke loose, we got conflicts all other the place saying that Table AA cannot be updated because records does not exist in Table X. To our surprise we found triggers generated by Erwin in 1998 €“ that check for €śforeign contsraints€? and removed them immediately.
We continued to get conflicts but could see from the error messages it was generated by the triggers in point 1. We added the NOT FOR REPLICATION clause and everything has been running smoothly or so we thought€¦..
After 2 months we got a call that data is missing. It€™s random data and the only explanation I have is that replication caused that. My biggest reason for saying this is tracking the application audit trail I€™ve found that all the data missing was added during the period we had all the conflicts.
I need a solid explanation for this and can anyone confirm that this is possible?

Hi gang,
We have a database that's using merge replication between two servers, and we need to insert a lot (about 1GB) of data into it.
The servers, however, are separated by a 192k WAN connection, so it's impractical to rely on the merge replication to send the data across to the subscriber.
Is there a way to insert the data at both ends? I can get the data out there on a DVD or a laptop easily enough. Can I load the data into both copies of the database and tell the merge agent that it's not to be replicated?
Thanks,
Matt

Hello,
When I reinitialized a subscription from SQL2005 db (publisher) to a SQL 2000 DB (Subscriber) and had the Upload changes before reinitialization turned on, the data from the SQL 2000 db didn't get uploaded. This resulted in a loss of 2 days worth of data.
Does anyone have any idea if there's anywhere that data is kept. (unfortunately a series of errors caused our backups to not be running on the 2000 db either).
Thank You

I'm having an error with merge replication my suscriber are downloading old data, all this start happen after I install SP4.
let explaint this with more details ,
if a made an update to a row in a table from the publisher , the agent history show that 1 change have downloaded to the suscriber, a put an audit in the suscriber and yes one update was downloaded but the row still the same, look like the suscriber downloaded old data instead of the curent change that i made.
If i delete the row, the rows gets delete at the suscriber, if a insert the row the row get insterted ok.
The problem only happen with rows inserted at the suscriber, that later on get update at the publisher. My suscriber has MSDE 2000 SP3 an my Server has SQL Enterprice 2000 SP4.

Hi,
We have configured one-way merge replication in our topology. That is data flows from Subscriber to Publisher only. We have a publisher and a subscriber. There are 3 publications in this category and each publication has a subscription. We use SQL Server 2005 SP1 in both the servers. The retention period is the 14 days (default). After this period, I get the following error in the subscription in Replication Monitor. The Error message is
Error messages:
The Merge Agent failed after detecting that retention-based metadata cleanup has deleted metadata at the Publisher for changes not yet sent to the Subscriber. You must reinitialize the subscription (without upload). (Source: MSSQL_REPL, Error number: MSSQL_REPL-2147199402)
I read the post http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspxPostID=372790&SiteID=1
which said that this error might be solved in the SP2. We have not yet applied SP2, but even after applying SP2, will this error be solved for One Way Merge Replication since the data from publisher will not go to the subscriber always in this type of topology??.
Kindly get back to us regarding this as soon as possible. Thanks in advance.

Hi all.
I 'm trying to set up merge replication between two servers that have the same schema databases. The two database have the majority of there data the same but as well as data inserted at a later time independently on the two servers. (The two servers were connected in a merge replication scheme that failed at some later time and replication was paused, but users continout to insert data indepentedly at the two servers.)
I need to get them up and running.
I cleaned replication at both servers, I recreated the publication at the puplisher distributor and all is fine.
When I create a push subscription to the subscriper I get the error invalid column name 'rowguidcol' .
I so far managed to have merge replication running on two identical databases (schema and data).
Just some thoughts. After some reading I found that it might be related to identities and identity range or indexes. I set the identity seed and increment at 2, 2 at publisher and at 1,2 at subscriper. (On the same tables at puplisher and subscriber.) Is that ok? is that the way to do it?
Digging a bit more Using the SQL Profiler I can locate the error to happen when sp_MSaddmergetriggers executes.
Thanks allot for any help

This is just too simple. I must be doing something wrong. I have tried everything, redoing the SQLMobile merge publication, setting permissions, and need help ASAP.
The basic test with the http://localhost/sqlmobile/sqlcesa30.dll returns the message:

I have tried the merge replication with both my local SQL Server 2005 installation and a remote development box. Both instances return the same error.
I am able create and replicate a database using the sample application:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms171908.aspx
However, another simple applications fails to synchronize when simply using the following code block:

repl.PublisherSecurityMode = SecurityType.NTAuthentication
repl.Publication = "SQLMobile"
repl.Subscriber = "sqlmobile"
repl.SubscriberConnectionString = _
"Data Source='" + filename + "';Password='';" _

repl.AddSubscription(AddOption.CreateDatabase)
repl.Synchronize()

Hello,
If I want to access or modify my local subscription data(not the configuration) how can I do that(from sql server 2005 or from asp.net)? Also can i update directly to the local subscriptions data or do I need another layer which will update from a table for example??
Thank you

Hi, I have compact sql databases which will be local on multiple users
devices. Due to space constraints, for one of the tables i have had to use
auto incrementing integer which works fine for the local database but i
would like to merge all of the users databases into a global database. The
table format can be seen below:
Code SnippetCREATE TABLE Players
(
ID UNIQUEIDENTIFIER NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
FirstName NVARCHAR(32),
LastName NVARCHAR(32)
);
CREATE TABLE Sessions
(
ID INTEGER NOT NULL IDENTITY,
PlayerID UNIQUEIDENTIFIER ,
SessionDateTime DATETIME,
CONSTRAINT pkSessions PRIMARY KEY (ID),
CONSTRAINT fkPlayerID FOREIGN KEY (PlayerID) REFERENCES Players(ID)
);
CREATE TABLE SessionDetail
(
SessionID INTEGER,
Time real,
Power real,
CONSTRAINT pkSessionDetail PRIMARY KEY (SessionID,StrokeTime),
CONSTRAINT fkSessionID FOREIGN KEY (SessionID) REFERENCES Sessions(ID)
);
The Players table will merge fine as GUIDs are used. However, how will the
sync capabilities of compact SQL handle the sessions table? When it pushes
the local data to the remote database will it change the Sessions.ID column
to a unique field (as no doubt lots of people will have 1, 2, 3 in their
local databases and the global database must have a unique ID), and then
transfer this changed ID back to the local database? Furthermore, if it
changes the Sessions.ID column during the merge it will also need to update
the SessionDetail.SessionID foreign key to maintain referential integrity,
is this also handled?
So my question is, how much of this sync and data merge is automated and are
there any good examples or pointers for my scenario? I cannot reasonably use
a GUID for Session.ID as there will be lots of SessionDetail entries and the
size would be far too much.
Many thanks,
Chris

I have tried backing up the replication from Primary Server (Publisher) A and copying over to Subscriber B. When I sync. I am missing the data. I don't know what step I am missing or it is bug on SQL 2K SP3.
I don't know what i am doing wrong.
Can anybody give me a step by step detail how to backup the publisher database and copy to a subscriber and sync by saying the schema and data already available. As we have WAN problem all the times, and when I try the full snapshot of 20 gig it was taking more than 24 hrs and also if the connection fails my snapshot also fails
Please help.
Thanks in Advance,
-Anu

On windows XP there is a Synchronize program in Accessories. When I run our replication scripts on a SQL Server Express on the XP machine and start the Synchronize program there are items there that allow me to replicate as well as set a schedule, etc.
On Windows Vista there is a Sync Center, but replication doesn't show up here.
I've searched high and low on Google and am not coming up with anything useful, which leads me to believe this is something very simple that I'm overlooking...
Does anyone know how to make your replication show up on the Sync Center in vista, or is there another application that I should download?
Thanks,
Brian
