Writing Errorlog To Sql Errorlog Problem
Jun 14, 2001Hello all,
I don't know what I am doing wrong.
In my environment, we have monitoring tool that scan through sql errorlog
every 10minutes to capture some error that occurs.
I have been trying for days now to create an alert for any of our failed
backup to appear in the sql errorlog with the code below. After I add
message to the sysmessage table with sp_addmessage, and raising the error
with log option, I modified the existing scheduled backup job by creating
an alert with the num in the code.
For some reason, this error will not just show up in the sql errorlog when
it failed.
Has anyone any advise on what to do?
The code is:
sp_addmessage 50001, 25, 'Backup Failed for the '%.*ls' database.Please Contact MSSQL DBA Immediately!!!! '
GO
DECLARE @DBID INT
SET @DBID = DB_ID()
DECLARE @DBNAME NVARCHAR(128)
SET @DBNAME = DB_NAME()
RAISERROR (50001, 25, 1, @DBID, @DBNAME) with log
GO
Thanks

SQL 2012 :: Monitoring Tool Using Powershell And Performance Monitoring
Sep 15, 2014We are in plan to build a Monitoring tool using PowerShell and Performance Monitor which could monitor 10 to 20 servers. Do you have any reference of any existing tool using Performance Monitor to monitor the SQL Server and available for free? I didn't want to put some effort, if something is available already.

Dec 22, 2005I just spent the better part of a full day trying to figure out why my MSSQLSERVER service wouldn't start. Finally, after someone suggested I check out "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server[Instance Name]LogErrorLog" I found my problem. I opened it up to find: (newbie mistake, I know now!!)
2005-12-21 19:27:46.60 server SQL Server evaluation period has expired
So I thought I would pass this onto everyone I can think of so you will not make the mistake I just did.
It would have been nice if Microsoft, like just about every other software company out there, would have been loud & obnoxious about their trial software expiring. Instead they have to put a poor newbie soul thru what I just went thru.
*sigh*
Well if I helped 1 person with this, I've done some good!

Errorlog Keep Appending -urgent
Jan 19, 2000We're running SQL 6.5 SP3, we recycle our SQL server every day, somehow starting last December, the errorlog kept appending to the previous one
without starting a new log, and it keeps on growing,
any one knows anywhere I should look into ?
If SQL behaves properly, it should starts a new log after each recycle.
I checked from Technet this problem may occur in 4.2 but I haven't seen anything in 6.5....Thanks

Synchronous Vs Asynchronous Outputs
Jan 3, 2008Can someone please clarify:
If you have a data file, and you only want CERTAIN rows to pass to the destination, ie) a table
and you are using a script task to accomplish this,
is this a synchronous or asynchronous transformation?
Q. And how do you assign the values to the output? Do you have to create output columns, or not?
I am very very confused right now. I can't seem to find a decent answer to what is a very basic question either in my SSIS book or in the documenation. Perhaps it is so basic, that the question doesn't seem valid? I don't know. But I just don't understand this at all.
Thank you
Adding To Outputs Together To Retrieve The Top(10) - Is It Possible??
Sep 24, 2007Hi There,
I have been struggling day and night with the creation of a store procedure due to not being able to retieve the rows I need for SUM and AVG functions.
I have two tables ('actions' & 'incident_types') which both have a score value for each record. In my database, I have reports that contain both action codes and incident_type codes based on a personnel_code.
In simple terms I'm trying to do the following:-
For all reports, find each personnel member and thier attached incident_types and action codes and then, for each score from the actions and incident_types tables, create the SUM of the 'combined' scores.
I have successfully retrieved the output for the scores individually but I need the TOP(10) of the combined output.....
I'm currently using to seperate queries as follows :--
--This gives me the incident type output...... Creating the 'Volume' column which is the total Score for incidetn_types
SELECT Top (@Number) Personnel_details.personnel_code, Personnel_details.personnel_forename, Personnel_details.personnel_Surname, sum(incident_types.type_score) as 'Volume', avg(incident_types.type_score) as 'Average' INTO 'Incident_Scores' from Report_header
JOIN incident_types on incident_types.type_code = report_header.report_incident_Code
JOIN report_basedon on report_basedon.report_code = report_header.report_code
JOIN personnel_details on personnel_details.personnel_code = report_basedon.personnel_code
WHERE (report_header.report_date >= @fromDate and report_header.report_date <= @toDate)
AND (report_header.report_time >= @fromTime and report_header.report_time <= @toTime)
AND report_basedon.personnel_code <> 0
AND report_header.record_status=@recordStatus
group by Personnel_details.personnel_code, Personnel_details.personnel_forename, Personnel_details.personnel_Surname
-- I then use the following to get the total of all action scores, again in the 'Volume' column
SELECT Top (@Number) Personnel_details.personnel_code, Personnel_details.personnel_forename, Personnel_details.personnel_Surname, sum(actions.action_score) as 'Volume', AVG(actions.action_score) as 'Average' from profile
JOIN actions on actions.action_code = profile.action_code
JOIN report_header on report_header.report_code = profile.incident_ID
JOIN personnel_details on personnel_details.personnel_code = profile.personnel_code
WHERE (report_header.report_date >= @fromDate and report_header.report_date <= @toDate)
AND (report_header.report_time >= @fromTime and report_header.report_time <= @toTime)
AND personnel_details.personnel_code <> 0
AND report_header.record_status=@recordStatus
AND profile.record_status=@recordStatus
group by Personnel_details.personnel_code, Personnel_details.personnel_forename, Personnel_details.personnel_Surname
So my question is - How can I get the sum(incident_types.type_score) + sum(actions.action_score) and then get the TOP(10) rows?
Is it possible to output these 2 result to a new table and then join the new tables?
Thanks for any assistance, this is really draining me at the moment..... :-/
ErrorLog Size Limit
Sep 6, 2006Hi.
I have a service on a server which contains Sql Server Express.
this service adds documents to the database to allow full text search features.
From some reason, the index crashes and than it writes to the ErrorLog file, the errorlog jumps to 20GB(!) causing the server to crash.
How can :
1. limit the size of the error log.
2. find out why the log jumps to this size (I can't open the error log file ofcourse...)
Thanks!

How To Handle Large Outputs From RDBMS
Nov 30, 2014Obviously Excel is the tool of choice for most people but with it's limited ability to leverage RAM (32 bit) and it's limitation with rows at just over 1 million what other choices do we have for viewing data?
My bosses boss created several OLAP universes and they seems to fly a lot fast than regular relational database. This still doesn't work with the fact the data can't be worked with unless you have a strong front end that can handle processing all those rows.
Using Findstr On SQL 2005 ERRORLOG File
Feb 28, 2008We have set up a couple of SQL Server 2005 systems and I have foundthat the format of the ERRORLOG files and the SQL Agent's log filesare Unicode or some format that findstr cannot parse properly. "find"parses them fine, but it doesn't have the capabilities that I need --specifically, I can't search for multiple strings in one search.I see the checkbox on the SQL Agent's for "Write OEM File", but it isgrayed out so I am not able to try checking that. I also don't knowif that would affect the server's ERRORLOG file too or just theAgent's log file.So what am I missing? What is everyone else doing who is used tohaving scripts to parse these files looking for strings that indicateproblems? Is there a server setting that will force it to go back toa plain ANSI text file format for log files? Is that a bad thing todo?Thanks in advance for any insight,Teresa Masino

Multicast Does Not Send Data To All Outputs
Apr 11, 2007Hello, I am using a multicast with 5 outputs, I attempting to pass about four thousand rows to different destinations.

Help, How To Write 2 Outputs To One Text File??
Mar 13, 2007Hi,
SQL Server 2005, sp2
What I am trying to do is very simple. I just want to run 2 stored procedures, then have the output from both sp's written to a single file.
I created a Data Flow task, then put 2 OLE DB Source adapters in the Data Flow task, one for each stored procedure.
Next, I dropped a Flat File destination object onto the page. However, I can only connect ONE arrow from one of the OLE DB Source adapters to the Flat File destination. It won't let me connect both.
What am I doing wrong here? How can I accomplish what I am trying to do here?
Thanks much
Script Component With Multiple Outputs
Sep 25, 2006Hi,
I wonder if someone might be able to help me with scripting a script component. I'd like to include error redirection of rows within my script.
If the conversion of any of my inputs fail i'd like to catch the error and then just output all values to another output path. The output path will just take the input values without converting them from string data types and output them to an error table.
In the script i imagine i would use try catch statements and if it fails then set the output. I am not entirely sue as to how to go about switching between outputs though.
Any help on this matter would be greatfully recieved.
Cheers,
Grant
Asynchronous Outputs On Script Component Best Practice
Mar 14, 2006If you have an output that is not synchronous with the input what is the best way of processing the data.
I am currently using a generic queue, and a custom class. I am creating an instance of the class in the ProcessINputRow and then adding it to the Queue.
The CreateNewOutputRows Dequeues the class instances and creates buffer rows.
Is there a better solution?

Thanks.

Not Able To Connet To SQLServer- Memory Related Messages In SQL Errorlog
Dec 1, 2004Hi
I was not able to connect to SQL Server machine. On examining the Error log (which was huge 53MB), I found the following messages that filled 95% of the logfile. Is this something to do with memory allocation.
Someone, please let me know what is going on. After the server reboot everything works fine.
I am worrired that this message may occur again.

Peculiar Behavior In Stored Procedure (outputs Are Returning Proper Vals For Uniqueidentifiers And Ints, Not Nvarchars)
Apr 27, 2005Rather than the real code, here's a sample we came up with.
Here's the C# Code:
public class sptest : System.Web.UI.Page
{
protected System.Web.UI.WebControls.Label Label1;
private DataSet dtsData;
private void Page_Load(object sender, System.EventArgs e)
{
// Put user code to initialize the page here
string strSP = "sp_testOutput";
SqlParameter[] Params = new SqlParameter[2];
Params[0] = new SqlParameter("@Input", "Pudding");
Params[1] = new SqlParameter("@Error_Text", "");
Params[1].Direction = ParameterDirection.Output;
try
{
this.dtsData = SqlHelper.ExecuteDataset(ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings["SIM_DSN"], CommandType.StoredProcedure, strSP, Params);
Label1.Text = Params[0].Value.ToString() + "--Returned Val is" + Params[1].Value.ToString();
}
//catch (System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException ex)
catch (Exception ex)
{
Label1.Text = ex.ToString();
}
}
Here is the stored procedure:
CREATE PROCEDURE [user1122500].[sp_testOutput](@Input nvarchar(76),@Error_Text nvarchar(10) OUTPUT)AS
SET @Error_Text = 'Test'GO
When I run this, it prints up the input variable, but not the output variable.
