Hi guys
I need to apply a sql script file on Sql server 2000 by .net 2.0 program. but on the current running machine, there is not Osql.exe file. Do you guys know how to execute the sql file without the command? Is there any way provided in .net library ?
Thanks for you response!
using osql to apply SPs in mutiple threadsHello,I got a weird problem when I was using osql to apply scripts for msdedatabase in multiple threads mode. Sometime 2 sps were missing duringthe whole apply process, sometime not, and seems like only those twoSPs met the problem. No error was appeared. Did anyone meet sameproblem before? Or any possible solutions?Thank you very much!
View 4 Replies View RelatedI want to run a stored procedure, from a .bat file.
Here is line 1 of the .bat file
osql -S SISPROD -d gSchool -E -Q "xSP_Attendance_Post_All_1Day '0708'"
When I run it as a Schedule Task, get
Run-time error '-2147217904...' Procedure 'xSP_Attendance_Post_All_1Day' expects parameter '@sy' which was not supplied.
The '0708' is the @sy parameter.
What is wrong with the command?
The weirder thing is that when I get a command prompt, any osql command gives me this:
'osql' is not recognized as an internal or external command,...'
Unless I run the .bat file -- then I get the same error as the 1st above.
SQL Server is not installed on this server. How does the Scheduled task run osql (although with the 1sterror above)? The task is running as "me", Active Directory user, same as I am logged on to server but cannot run osql at all.
TIA
I am on a new task where I don't have Enterprise Manager available and I need to build a database (I have been spoiled on all prior tasks).
I have access to SQL-Server and have OSQL available (and other utilities I don't know how to use).
I have already found that I can access the server using OSQL, but I don't know the rest of the parameters for OSQL or how to use them. I need to build tables, relationships, indices, stored procedures, views, etc.
Could someone point me to some documentation where I can learn how to use OSQL?
Thanks!
I try applying the SP 4 on the default instance of the msde 2000 and when it stops after a minute generates the log and says it was successful but no upgrade is done. I use the following command setup /upgradesp sqlrun SECURITYMODE=SQL BLANKSAPWD=1 DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=0 /L*v C:MSDELog.log
On the same machine I has installed also SQLExpress.
I stop the sql services before issuing the command.
Any Ideas?
I am interested in applying 7.0 log files to 2000 database, that has been previously restored from a 7.0 version database. Assuming that the original database is one in the same, is this possible?

Everybody,I've been doing a lot of on-line research and cannot findany reference to the exact problem I'm having.Let me preface this question with the fact that I'm comingfrom an Oracle background so my approach may not be the bestway to tackle this. However, from the research I have donethis approach seems reasonable. Also, I know about theundocumented procedure sp_MSforeachtable. That can give me aresult similar to what I'm looking for but the format of theoutput is not what I need.Now the problem. I'm trying to write a reusable script to giveme a list of all the tables in a database that have 1 or more rows.My approach is to a BAT file (see script 1 below) that calls OSQLtwice, once to call a SQL script (see script 2 below) that uses theInformation_Schema views to generate the SELECT COUNT(*) statementsand fill in all the tables names in the database, write this to atemporary output file and the second OSQL command to read thetemporary output file and generate me the results formatted theway I need.The result of the first OSQL run is correct EXCEPT for 1> 2> 3> 4> 5>6> 7> 8> 9> 10> 11> 12> 13> garbage at the beginning of the file.Because of this garbage the 2nd OSQL command blows up! Anyone haveany idea what is generating this garbage?If I manually edit out the garbage and then just run the 2nd OSQLcommandI get similar garbage in the final result file (see 2nd result filebelow).In Query Analyzer, when I run the GET_TABLE_COUNT.SQL Script manuallythen take its output and copy and paste it to a new query window andrun that it works OK except for generating lots of blank lines wherethe result of the tables that have zero rows are. I am suppressingheadings but am still getting the blank lines but at least it works!Any ideas anybody?

View 2 Replies View RelatedI have a scheduled task that runs a batch file in windows 2003 server which
is running SQL Server 2000 Enterprise.
The batch file contains the line:
OSQL -i myscript.sql -Umyuser -Pmypassword -Slocalhost -o mytrans.log
the 'myscript.sql' file updates a table with another table of the exact
number of rows.
When the scheduled task runs, the 'mytrans.log' file shows 0 rows were
affected.
If I run this myself from the command line, 22,000 rows are affected which
is correct.
I am guessing there is some sort of permission/authentication issue here. I
am sending the right username/password for SQL and for windows to run the

Any idea what I could do to fix this?

HiI implement a manual standby by backing up Transaction log files everyhourand database nightly and restoring these on a standby server.Every thing works fine but the Transaction log restore fail with errorlistedI am sure the database backup finishes before the transaction logbackupsThanksTYThe log in this backup set terminates at LSN 22927000000763100001,which is too early to apply to the database. A more recent log backupthat includes LSN 22927000000773700001 can be restored. [SQLSTATE42000] (Error 4326). The step failed.

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi,I have dumped a very large database from mysql (using mysqldump program)as a raw sql file. The reason was, convert this database to a MSSQLdatabase. Since mysqldump creates the file as raw sql file with thedatabase-table structures and the data in it, I thought using OSQL commandline utilities should work to out this whole database in MSSQL server.I have run this command from command line:osql -u sa -i mysqldump.sqlIt is going since yesterday. It has been almost 36 hours that it'sstarted. And in the mssql server, I see no database created yet. On thescreen of the command line, I see bunch of numbers are going in order. Iassume they are row numbers of the tables processed. But, if it is doing it,then where is it saving all this data ? I have checked the tempdb, pub db,other dbs, and I see no tables related to the database I am inserting. Willit populate it at the and of the job ? Or, am I doing something wrong here?Regards.Murtix.

We are using log shipping and we would like to remove all transfered and applied journal (in the primary box).
We have the intentionto use a trigger like this :
CREATE TRIGGER del_log
ON log_shipping_plan_history
AFTER INSERT
as
declare
@lastfile nvarchar(256)
SELECT @lastfile=i.last_file
FROM log_shipping_plan_history e INNER JOIN inserted i ON e.sequence_id = i.sequence_id
where i.activity=1
begin
if IF (@lastfile <> NULL)
...
... remove file (using xp_cmd for example...)
...
end
but the problem is that we have only the last file transfered and applied that will be removed
(some time, more that 1 file are applied in one shot ...
see num_files column in log_shipping_plan_history).
Any solution to remove all the files generated before the last one given by the query ?
Any other solutions (sql wizard gives the possiblity to to remove file after a laps of time 1hour, 1day...).
I am looking for the table that contains all the journal files (that we can see when we try to retore a db) ?
Thanks
Hi... I'm reading the MS Press 70-442 Self-Paced Training kit, and I'm having problems with this example.
I'd like help getting it to work correctly, or understand why it is isn't working the way I planned.
On page 67, the lab is about the APPLY operator (CROSS APPLY and OUTER APPLY). I first have to input a sample table-valued function into the AdventureWorks database:
Code Block
CREATE FUNCTION fnGetAvgCost(@ProdID int)
RETURNS @RetTable TABLE (AvgCost money)
AS
BEGIN
WITH Product(stdcost)
AS
(
SELECT avg(standardcost) as AvgCost
FROM Production.ProductCostHistory
WHERE ProductID = @ProdID
)
INSERT INTO @RetTable
SELECT * FROM Product
RETURN
END
and then run a sample T-SQL statement
Code Block
SELECT p.Name, p.ProductNumber,
Convert(varchar, cost.AvgCost,1) AS 'Average Cost'
FROM Production.Product p
CROSS APPLY fnGetAvgCost(p.ProductID) AS cost
WHERE cost.AvgCost IS NOT NULL
ORDER BY cost.AvgCost desc
My problem is with the WHERE clause... According to page 56, CROSS APPLY returns only rows from the outer table that produces a result set, so why do I need to explicitly filter NULL values?
When I remove the WHERE clause, the query retrieves lots of NULL AvgCost values.
Again, according to page 56, it is the OUTER APPLY that returns all rows that return a result set and will include NULL values in the columns that are returned from the table-valued function.
So, in short, I don't see the difference between CROSS APPLY and OUTER APPLY, using this example, when I remove the WHERE clause?
(Please refrain from introducing another example into this question.)
I've written a small dos batch script that runs a simple query throughosql and then calls an exe which sends an email if the returned value

Hello,
I get following error trying to use SQLCMD OR OSQL
Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server [2].
Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft SQL Native Client : An error has occurred while establi
shing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failu
re may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not
allow remote connections..
Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft SQL Native Client : Login timeout expired.
I searched this forum for answers and I found one solution where it was said that Remote connections for TCP and Named Pipes needs to be enabled. I have them enabled, but I still get this error. I had working SQL server before, but I had to uninstall it. Now after installing ti again I started to get this error.
Anything else besides disabled remote connections cause this problem? I'm trying a local connection. I heard elsewhere that this could be firewall related, but shouldn't it use local connection always when I try to connect it with sqlcmd and no other parameters given?
