I have been trying to think of a solution to a problem i have and still not sure how to go about it.
I have a database filled with message data that is sent by one user to another.
What i am trying to do is have it so (if users are online) they are notified - by a popup or something - that a new message has arrived for them.
My idea was to create a trigger on the message table to update a change table with sender and recipient ids and date of change in it.
Not a problem so far but what is troubling me is that i want the recipient to automatically query this change table every say 30 seconds to check if new message has arrived with their id.
Tryed using ajax update panel and timer but naturally that kept posting back whole page - looks really terriable :( - tryed sqlnotification but as far as i can see that is only changing cached data for current data - not the same issue i think.
Is there a way to query db table regualry without the client side knowing? - thinking along lines of how outlook requeries server for new messages and displays popup to say new message but doesnt interupt you if doing something else.
Any help would be greatly appreaciated.
Thanks
We’re creating a program and need some advice about locking. The program will select data for the user to view; the user may or may not then perform an update on the set. There exists a possibility of another user attempting the same operation at the same time. Thus we want to have the first user lock the data set and the second to be able to select only until the first is complete. We’ve run some tests using the UPDLOCK hint. It works as expect except for the blocking. If a connection attempts to create another Update Lock after another connection has one, then the new connection is blocked. We’re looking for a way to let the program know that an update lock is in existence before it tries to create a new one. The sp_lock procedure can display all the locks, but you can not select specific values (i.e. select any update locks on ObjectID = x). Do any of you know another way or how we can use sp_lock for our purpose?
i want to make a stored procedure that will update the notification flag in the table.
If the email was succesfully sent the flag will be updated as SENT. And if it is un successful the flag will be NOT SENT in column of the table in SQL. The email will be send using .NET codes and updates of notification flag will use SQL stored procedure. Please help
Hello,I'm following the tutorial for setting up notification services, available here: ms-help://MS.SQLCC.v9/MS.SQLSVR.v9.en/sqltut9/html/44aa0556-b9c2-48f5-8775-134bbe0b90aa.htm. Where it says:Update the Instance of Notification Services After you modify the ADF, you update the instance of Notification Services to add event class objects to the application database:
In Object Explorer, expand Notification Services. Right-click Tutorial, point to Tasks, and then select Update. In the Update Instance dialog, click Browse, browse to the TutorialICF.xml file, and then click Open. In the Parameters grid, enter values for the _ServerName_, _DBEngineInstance_, and _InstancePath_ parameters. Use the same values you used to create the instance. Click OK. Review the Notification Services - Update Summary dialog box, and then click Update. When the update actions complete, click Close. I'm getting the error: The instance must be disabled before it can be updated or upgraded. How do I do that?Thanks.
I run the following statement and it will not update beyond 7 million plus rows and I have about 38 million to complete. I keep checking updated row counts and after 1/2 day it's still the same so I know something is wrong because it was rolling through no problem when I initiated it. I need to complete ASAP so it's adding to my frustration. The 'Acct_Num_CH' field is an encrypted field (fyi).
SET rowcount 10000 UPDATE [dbo].[CC_Info_T] SET [Acct_Num_CH] = 'ayIWt6C8sgimC6t61EJ9d8BB3+bfIZ8v' WHERE [Acct_Num_CH] IS NOT NULL WHILE @@ROWCOUNT > 0 BEGIN SET rowcount 10000 UPDATE [dbo].[CC_Info_T] SET [Acct_Num_CH] = 'ayIWt6C8sgimC6t61EJ9d8BB3+bfIZ8v' WHERE [Acct_Num_CH] IS NOT NULL END SET rowcount 0
When I enter over 4000 chars in any ntext field in my SQL Server 2005 database (directly in the database and through the application) I get an error saying that the data could not be updated because string or binary data would be truncated.Has anyone ever seen this? I cannot figure out what is causing it, ntext should be able to hold a lot more data that this...
I want to make data changes in read_only database , that's why i must set database read_write. While database is at read_write mode, i want to be sure that no one makes change in database.
For this aim, i write the code below, but i suspect that after setting the database read_write, till the setting database single_user ,is it possible get DML script from another user. Is the code below enough for this operation. Or is there another way?
Reminding: Read_only database can not be set single_user mode. That's why, first you must set database read_write.
The code;
use master alter database xxx set read_write with rollback immediate alter database xxx set single_user with rollback immediate
use xxx update tablexxx set columnxxx=yyy use master alter database xxx set read_only with rollback immediate alter database xxx set multi_user with rollback immediate
Hi,First post so apologies if this sounds a bit confusing!!I'm trying to run the following update. On a weekly basis i want toinsert all the active users ids from a users table into a timesheetstable along with the last day of the week and a submitted flag set to0. I plan then on creating a schduled job so the script runs weekly.The 3 queries i plan to use are below.Insert statement:INSERT INTO TBL_TIMESHEETS (TBL_TIMESHEETS.USER_ID,TBL_TIMESHEETS.WEEK_ENDING, TBL_TIMESHEETS.IS_SUBMITTED)VALUES ('user ids', 'week end date', '0')Get User Ids:SELECT TBL_USERS.USER_ID from TBL_USERS where TBL_USERS.IS_ACTIVE = '1'Get last date of the weekSELECT DATEADD(wk, DATEDIFF(wk,0,getdate()), 6)I'm having trouble combing them as i'm pretty new to this. Is the bestapproach to use a cursor?If you need anymore info let me know. Thanks in advance.
i am really in need of help. i have a text file consiting of some data.i want to update my database from that text file periodically say 12 hours.the text file is being updated by another server program in every 12 hours can any one help me in this case? i am lost for this scenario?? help me please.....
Msg 209, Level 16, State 1, Line 8 Ambiguous column name 'PartNrFabrikant'. Msg 209, Level 16, State 1, Line 8 Ambiguous column name 'omschrijving'. Msg 209, Level 16, State 1, Line 8 Ambiguous column name 'verkoopprijs'. Msg 116, Level 16, State 1, Line 13
Only one expression can be specified in the select list when the subquery is not introduced with EXISTS.
finding one set of data within another set of data for update,so if within column 1 it finds the results from another select on another table, it updates a different column with the result.
Example
SELECT Title from H..Import_Table returns 'PRN - Concord' 'PRN - San Jose' 'SLP - PRN - San Jose' 'San Jose - PT - PRN'
My SQL server email job notifications have stopped working, but mails sent through the xp_sendmail command still work.
The only thing that has changed recently is the SQL server agent account passwords have been changed, these accounts are normal win2000 domain accounts.
I wish to know if there is anyway to find out if a perticular job on SQL Agent was executed or not. I am not looking for Log History of the job, but, something like a trigger that will fire an email to notify that a perticular job that was scheduled to run at a certain time did not run.
To explain in detail, I have a job that is scheduled to run every 15 min. This job is crutial and I wish to be notified if the job was not run for some reason or other. I already have a program that delivers me the history log of the job each day, but, checking history to see if the job ran or not every 15 min is not possible. Again, I am not talking about the job success or failure, but the fact that the job has run or not - thats it !
If you are suggesting a SMO object, I will appriciate if you provide me with the code or alternatively a source to refer.

I have set up SQL Mail on a SQL 7.0 box and I can successfully schedule tasks and receive e-mails from them. However, when I try to get mail notification from a scheduled DTS package I run into problems and no mail is sent. Under Profile Name the only item selectable is Microsoft Outlook. I've tried selecting this as well as leaving the profile blank and nothing seems to work. We use POP3 server and Microsoft Messaging. Our corporate e-mail system is Notes so we forward mail through the POP3 server via Internet mail to our Lotus Notes system.
Any suggestions so that we could get our DTS mail notification working? Anything I could try that I haven't?
Does anyone know if there is any software available that notifies specified people when an error above a certian level occurs. Im thinking along the lines of email and text message.
Im running sql server 2k at sp3a level, and the software will have to be compatible with it so as to get the event notification to pass the information on.
If there isn't any software, would anyone know of any scripts that will do this?
I would like to know, is there any method that the notification can be send more than one person? (SQL server agent--> Job Properties--> Notification--> email)
The dropdownbox list allow one email only, can I add more people on the email list, or insert more email address in the same operator?
Can anyone tell me abt SQL Notification Service ??? Is that SQL Programming application or can be implemented with other Dot Net Languagues ???
Need to know further that this services are implemented only by the Database Engineers or integrated with the Application development using .Net Language like C# etc ????
Hi, I have scheduled a job that runs every minute. If the job does not succeed, then I would like my front end application to be notified. I am not sure if this is a reasonable way but I am thinking of somehow populating a table (Only if the scheduled job fails) in sql server and then read that table every minute from the front end application.
So, is it possible to populate a table if a job fails? I do not see any options for this in the properties of the job.
Is there any way to configure a notification icon in the start tray in Express 2005 (like we had in SQL Server 2000) with a little green (or red) arrow (or dot) to indicate whether the server's up (or down)?
i have a scheduled ssis package and because it's pretty critical i have to do a lot of error handling. inside the package all possible errors are handeld but now i have the question if there's a way to check whether a scheduled sql server job was started successfully or not. because if the job doesn't start i cannot get an error notification from inside the ssis package. in sql server management studio there's the possibility to send a notification if a job fails, but i don't know if this also includes the case when the job doesn't start at all.
I have a problem with the notification. I have enabled Database mail and i have created an Operator.
Under SQL Server AgentJobs and then in the job properties i have enabled notification but i don`t receive a mail. Test e-mail works fine but "real" e-mail not.
I have also tried with the Database Maintenance Wizard but even then it just not work.
I have noticed that others have experienced the same problem but i have seen no solution yet.
Could you please help me? What can cause this problem? What`s the best i can do to start searching for the solution? Thanks!
