I have used the script file to make a transcation repliation. All the things goes well except a bug, when the script executed over, the snapshot does not start copy at once and need me go to the enterprise manager and right click it in the replication monitor to start it, I just want to start it auto when finish executing the script . How should I do ?
View 3 RepliesHi guys,
I'm trying to set up merge replication between a SQL Server 2000 SP4 / Win2k box and a MSDE SP4/WinXP box and I'm finding that the initial snapshot isn't being produced.
The SQL Agent runs as a windows user that has admin privileges, the snapshot agent impersonates the SQL Agent. The SQL Server login for the agent account has the server role "System Administrators" and database access to all db's.
When I turn on logging and try to start the agent, the following is written to the log:
Microsoft SQL Server Snapshot Agent 8.00.760
Copyright (c) 2000 Microsoft Corporation
Microsoft SQL Server Replication Agent: SVRName-POS-POS_Test_Suburb-1
Connecting to Distributor 'SVRName'
SourceTypeId = 5
SourceName = SVRName
ErrorCode = 18456
ErrorText = Login failed for user 'SVRNameSQLAgent'.
The process could not connect to Distributor 'SVRName'.
Most of the posts I've seen regarding problems like this are due to subscriber authentication issues (not up to that, this is the initial snapshot) or windows/domain user permissions.
Any ideas what else it might be?
Hello,
I'm working on some maintenance task. I need some O/S system to start my SQL Service when it found stopped due to error or els any reason. I mean, when due to error if they fail, they have to start automatically by O/S.
regard's,
vnk.
I have a SQL Server 2000 that failed to start after a Windows reboot.Agent properties are checked to auto start if stopped. Under the AgentError Log, I have the following data:Information:SQL Agent stopping because of Windows shutdown.SQL Agent terminated normally.Error:SQL Server Error: 1115, cannot generate SSPI context SQLState HY000.Logon to server(local) failed.Help apprecaited.

Server execution failed
There is no more information in the event viewer. I've tried it with a bunch of different subscriptions. SQL Server and SQL Agent are running under a local account which has access to the replcation data directory. SQL Agent is running.
I'm Running SQL 2000 SP3.

Hello everyone! We had an issue this week where SQL Server Agent did not restart automatically. Weekly maintenance runs on the server each Sunday in which a reboot of the server occurs. Both SQL Server and SQL Server Agent are set to auto-start when OS starts. SQL started fine, but SQL Server Agent didn't.
Anyone know of a reason why SQL Server Agent wouldn't have restarted? Also, does anyone know of a way to set something up that would alert me (through email) if this service hasn't restarted?
Thanks in advance,
Lance
We currently have SQL Server 6.5 installed on 2 servers and did not
specify to automatically start the mail client. When I display the Server
Configuration/Options screen in Enterprise Manager, the Auto Start Mail
Client check box option is grayed out. How can I change these servers to
automatically start the mail client at startup?
Thanks in advance!
I am not successful in getting SQL Server Agent to startup when SQL server starts up.
I believe the problem has to do with a lack of permissions or rights. I will list the steps
below which seem to me to be all that are needed to install SQL Server Agent. I used
Enterprise Manager to get this information.
If anyone can shoot any holes in the process, please do, that may be where my
problem lies.
a. Created NT accounts called MSSQLSERVER for the server and MSSQLSERVERAGENT
for SQL Agent.
b. Each of these accounts has the "right" to logon as a service.
c. Each of these accounts has "admin" rights.
d. Each of these accounts has been added to SQL SERVER under Security and Logins.
e. The properties assigned to each of the accounts are:
(1) on the general tab -- Windows NT authentication is in effect, database is master
and language is English (2) on the server roles tab -- System Administrators is checked
(3) on the database access tab -- the master database is checked
f. Under SQL Server Agent, properties, selecting the General Tab, in the frame
titled "service startup account":
(1) the circle labelled "this account" is clicked (2) the account is filled in using
domain namemssqlserveragent (3) the correct password is filled in taking case
into consideration
g. Under SQL Server Agent, properties, selecting the Connection Tab, in the frame
titled "sql server connection":
(1) the circle labelled "use windows NT authentication" is clicked
h. Right clicking the server and selecting properties show a multi-tab window
(1) the general tab shows that all three autostart boxes are checked
(2) the security tabs shows SQL Server and Windows authentication are in effect
(3) the startup service account shows "this account" selected and the account
is filled in with domain namemssqlserver and the password is filled in (taking
case into consideration)
In all cases above, the domain name is not the domain in which the server resides,
but is in a "trusted" domain.
Any help would be very much appreciated!!!!!
Is it possible to manually force/call/start the system AUTOSHRINK process? I have an issue that appears only when the engine shrinking process is running and I need this to reproduce my bug.
I know how to start a "regular" database shrink process with:DBCC SHRINKDATABASE(xxxx);, but this is not the same as one started from the database engine.
Hi All,
I would appreciate any help here at all. I am pulling my hair out!
I am unable to start the snapshot agent or log reader agent from within SQL management studio. it fails on executing step 2 with unknown username or bad password.
I have checked all account details and they are correctly using my domain admin account. I can connect to SQL using teh same account and it also has sysadmin permissions.
If i copy the step 2 paramters and start from the cmd prompt (again logged in using the same domain account) they both start fine.
Any ideas would be gratefully received.
I am testing peer to peer replication in our environment. I simulated a three node peer to peer topology and a local distributor.
For some wierd reason I cannot get the Log Reader Agent and snapshot agent to start. The domain account under which SQL Server Agent runs has administrator previlage on the box. I also use a domain account for SQL Server Service. (none of the passwords changed).
This is the error I am getting - "Executed as user: abc. A required privilege is not held by the client. The step failed"
Any ideas???
Also this domain account is a member of
SQLServer2005MSSQLUsers$ServerName$MSSQLSERVER
SQLServer2005MSAgentUser$ServerName$MSSQLSERVER
Hi
I seem to have a strange problem when applying a snapshot when the tables in the publication have been updated while the snapshot was being generated.
Say for example there is a table called RMAReplacedItem in the publication. When the snapshot starts being applied to the subscriber, a stored procedure called sp_MSins_RMAReplacedItem_msrepl_css gets created that handles an insert if the row already exists (ie it updates the row rather than inserting it). However, after all the data has been loaded into the tables, instead of calling this procedure, it tries to call one called sp_MSins_RMAReplacedIte_msrepl_cssm - it takes the last letter of the table name and adds it to the end of the procedure name.
The worst part is that this causes the application of the snapshot to fail, but it doesnt report what the error is, and instead it just tries applying the snapshot again. The only way i have managed to find which call is failing is to run profiler against the subscriber while the snapshot is being applied and see what errors.
I have run sp_broswereplcmds and the data in there is what is applied to the subscriber - ie the wrong procedure name.
All the servers involved are running sql 2005 service pack 2. The publisher and subscriber were both upgraded from sql 2000, but the distribution server is a fresh install of sql 2005.
Since upgrading from SQL Server Management Studio 2008 R2, I've noticed that it no longer autosaves queries that have not been manually saved first. If a file has been manually saved the autorecover files end up in the following directory:
%appdata%MicrosoftSQL Server Management Studio11.0AutoRecoverDatSolution1
However, I have ended up in the situation where I have unsaved queries when my computer has crashed and have not been able to recover them.
I have also found references to .sql files stored in temp files in the following directory, but the files here seem to be very haphazardly caught:
%userprofile%AppDataLocalTemp
I have an MS SQL Server table with a Job Number field I need this field to start at a certain number then auto increment from there. Is there a way to do this programatically or within MSDE?
Thanks, Justin.
1) RS Start in Window Severvices
2) RS Start in Configration
1) and 2) Is Same?
I think that It looks like same Operation.

Dear friends
I am a new fellow to replication.What is the problem I am getting is I am not able to create snapShot.Whenever I start Snapshot Agent it is going for half an hour and it will stuck in the case of one view saying like that 'failed to process bulk copy of data from dbo.syncobj_03x666*'.If I am publishing tables only then also I am getting same error.This view created by system.In my case publiher only working as a distributor.I created a SQL username which have access in subscriber & Publisher.Preferably I will be happy if someone suggest what and all are the primary criterias we have to keep in mind while doing Replication
Thanks in Advance

I get the following error message in the job history for
synchronization between two SQL 7 machines across the
network.
The process could not read file 'acct.sch' due to OS error
1231.
Is there something to fix this? It has been running fine
for almost 2 years and suddenly quit. There is a firewall
on both sides, if that helps.
TIA,

The database will grow to 40GB in a short while and I intend to schedule replication every hour. Can this not be done using snapshot replication??

Yes and I would rather not use dts to accomplish this task.

Do you have direct network connection to remote server? Did you try dts?

I've been trying to replicate a database to an off site server using snapshot replication. It is scheduled to run every hour but I've noticed when data is changed at the source it never gets replicated to the destination. Does anyone know why?? I can't use transactional replication beause not all the tables have primary keys and they can't be added due to code. Some tables have id colunms and have been created with the Not for Replication option on the subscriber. Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
Robert
I can set up snapshot replication for those tables without foreign key constraints. But if there are foreign keys in the table, there will be error
message indicating that this object can not be dropped because it is referenced by ....
Do you have any remedy for that? Thanks
Hi,
I've problem in replicating data thru SNAPSHOT as I've the tables with Foreign Keys at subscriber end. The Truncate table is not working because these tables
were referenced by a FK. Even for recreating table during snapshot is also same problem. Any suggestions?
Thanks

2 questions:
1) In snapshot replication, can the subsciber send info back to the publisher (even in a manual process)
2) In snapshot replication, do we need a distributor set up between the publisher and subscriber if there will only be a single subscriber, or can we write directly to it?
Thanks so much for any and all help!
Hi,
I am replicating all tables in the DB. the tables have PKs,FKs and identity columns. While truncating the data from the tables in subscriber getting
the constraint errors. Please suggest how to get rid of this error.

But i have changes at the suscriber, How can I do to Merge the last changes if the merge agentes is stopped.
I appreciate any help.

Hi Guys,
We have a production server in East Coast (SQL Server 2000 SP2 - Database size is around 30 Gig). We have a reporting server is the West Coast. We need to replicate (transactional replication every one hour) from East coast to West coast. Is there any way that I can take a backup and restore upto the last transaction backup and then start replication agent on the production (by saying schema and data already exist). Basically we don't wan't to snapshot using FTP or bcp through WAN because it is going to be very slow.
If this is possible, will there be any validation problem.
Please help.
Thanks,
Anu
Suppose i want to replicate data from server A to server B
I am using snaphot replication.I did the snapshot replication for the first time
and server B got a snapshot of server A.
Next time i run snapshot i want the incremental data to be replicated and not all..Is this possible in snapshot replication? If not which type of replication should i use?
We have a training server and I've had a request that after each training session, we have the ability to quickly roll the training server back to its previous state so that the next group of people can be trained with the same examples.
Doing a restore requires that the maintenance (defrag, warm cache, etc..) also runs after that before the server performs fast enough.
So I was thinking of snapshots as an alternative. When you roll back to a snapshot, does that invalidate what's in the cache or have any adverse effect on query plans, stats, or indexes?
Hello everyone

Hi All,I have set up a snapshot replication, and schedule it to run everynight. The snapshot run successfully, and data get replicated to thesubscribed server. However, data do not get transfer as the second dayand there after. I check the job history, the job (distribution) runsuccessfully. I start the snapshot agent again, then data gettransferred. I can schedule the snapshot agent to run every night, butthis is just not the way it's supposed to be. Is there anyone out therecan give me some help. Thanks.
