Merge Replication
How can I get sql server to log to the windows event long when a conflict occurs so that I can set up a notification alert. I have gone to the replication alerts in enterprise manager and set one up but it is never triggered and there is never anything in the windows event log.
exec sp_helpmergeconflictrows @conflict_table = 'CMCustomer'
Msg 207, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Invalid column name 'origin_datasource_id'.
When I run the "Microsoft Replication Conflict View" I am prompted to pick a table. Here are the details of the error message I receive.
===================================

Hi
I faced with strange problem.
From time to time, during syncronization I get the following errors at the subscriber:
ERROR: -2147200992
SOURCE: Merge Replication Provider
TEXT: The merge process could not store conflict information for article 'Products'. Check the publication properties to determine where conflicts records are stored. When troubleshooting, restart the synchronization with verbose history logging and specify an output file to which to write.
ERROR: 2812
SOURCE: OFF1SQLEXPRESS
TEXT: Could not find stored procedure 'MSmerge_cft_sp_49D28CEAFF8A4ACC5C5462B5027D4E4D'.
ERROR: -2147199481
SOURCE: Merge Replication Provider
TEXT: The Merge Agent was unable to update information about the last synchronization at the Subscriber. Ensure that the subscription exists at the Subscriber, and restart the Merge Agent.
After I refresh the snaphot at the publisher, these errors disappear and the syncronization is completed without any problem. And I can sync easy again week or two..
What is the problem?
What is the right solution?
Yep, I can continue to refresh the snapshot each time when the error appears, but..
maybe there is another approach?
Thanks in advance!

I have been evaluating merge replication, 'push' subscription on SQL Server 2014. If the default resolver is used (I refer to @article_resolver parameter of sp_addmergearticle), all seems to work as expected. However if I use "Microsoft SQL Server Subscriber Always Wins Conflict Resolver" (or any other MS standard resolver for that matter), if the Subscriber is on a different machine, the merge agent invariably gives the following error: "The process could not initialize <resolver_name>. Verify that the component is registered correctly."
This does not happen if the Subscriber is on the same machine as the Publisher and Distributor.
The problem seemed to exist in SQL Server 2008 according to some posts but it has been apparently fixed since then. I've tried the following:
- @partition_options = 0, as was suggested somewhere.
- Copied ssrpub.dll (the resolver dll) to the Subscriber machine (should not really matter as this is 'push' subscription?)
- Registered ssrpub.dll with regsvr32 on the Publisher/Distributor machine.
I've also run sp_enumcustomresolvers on the Publisher machine, and it happily showed all standard resolver, including the "Microsoft SQL Server Subscriber Always Wins Conflict Resolver".
Another thought is, I'm using SQL Server Express as the Subscriber (on the remote machine). Perhaps it does not support custom resolvers? (I'm using the full SQL Server in the 'local subscriber' variant, which does work OK as I mentioned before).
Note also that if I create a new publication via SSMS, the Resolver tab of the Article Properties dialog is empty, i.e. it does not list any resolver. The same tab contains the full list of resolvers though, if opened for an existing publication.
I have gone through BOL and various online resources including this one and I can't find any examples on how to use custom conflict resolvers to generate a result row which is a combination of the rows to be merged.
BOL says it can be done, but suitable examples are missing. I have found various posts requesting examples from up to a year ago, but can see no replies with relevant information
In particular I would like to see examples of
1) A stored procedure based custom conflict resolver
2) A business logic handler written in VB .Net
Here's hoping

I have some rogue replication conflict tables that I can't delete because they are system tables. They are names aonflict_<tablename> and bonflict_<tablename>. They are definitely not needed anymore. How can I delete them ? Does anyone know how to delete a system table ?
View 1 Replies View RelatedAll of a sudden none of our merge replications are working. In fact you can't even insert, update or delete and data from the tables in the merge publication. When trying that, we get an error stating:
Msg 550, Level 16, State 1, Procedure MSmerge_ins_E3F43EF8B259476099BBB194A2E1708C, Line 42
The attempted insert or update failed because the target view either specifies WITH CHECK OPTION or spans a view that specifies WITH CHECK OPTION and one or more rows resulting from the operation did not qualify under the CHECK OPTION constraint.
The statement has been terminated.
Currently, the only solution I've found is to delete the publication and recreate it. I'm trying to figure out why this happened. It happened on a development server that to my knowledge, hasn't been changed in a week or so outside of changing the server's IP address. Would that cause such an error to occur?

Hi, eveyone..
I have a problem.
One of developer deleted Merge Replication Job.
However there is no doc for that replication.
What I want to know is like this:
which tables are in that replication?
Is there any system or user tables track down these replication as well as configuration in that replication?
Thanks in advance:-))

Hi!
There is a view in our replicated SQL-2000 database, that returns all user tables and views with replication state (0 if not included into publication, 1 if included):
Code Snippet
CREATE VIEW [dbo].[ViewREPL_PublishedObjects]
AS
SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT
CASE [xtype]
WHEN 'U' THEN 'Table'
WHEN 'V' THEN 'View'
ELSE NULL END AS [Object Type],
[name] AS [Object Name],
CASE WHEN [replinfo] = 0
THEN 0 ELSE 1
END AS [Replicated]
FROM [sysobjects]
WHERE
[xtype] in ('U', 'V')
AND [status] > 0
ORDER BY
(CASE [xtype]
WHEN 'U' THEN 1
WHEN 'V' THEN 2
ELSE 10
END),
[name]
Now we need to upgrade our database to SQL-2005, but [sysobjects] table have been changed, so neither Replicated state could be determined according on [replinfo] column value, nor User/System object according on [status].
So, I need a view with same functionality, that will work under SQL-2005 and 2008.
Please, help!
There is an error in one of my merge publication. The error is,

hi all,
Could we configure a merge replication such as replicate the master table and its all related tables (relation deep could be 1.)
We dont want to manually find master table relations and configure replication for the related tables.
please help for that configuration

I created a view that joins two tables (tblOrder and tblProduct). The fieldProductID is common to both. When I save the View I get the following errormessage: "Column names in each view must be unique." Is there a way aroundthat? Should I be naming my Key Fields and Foreign Key fields differently?I'm new to MS-SQL. Thanks for your help.Louis
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi,
I created a .sdf file thru merge replication.
On the step of publication, in the articles object there is an option to select from 1) Tables,views 2) and stored procedures from the databse.
How these two are diferent from each other?
My aim is to use Stored procedures extensively so that I can avoid SQL code in device.
When we use this .sdf file in active sync,we only getting the tables, and no sp's and views.
Is it possible to accept sp's and view from sdf in pocketPC?
I am using SQL server2005 on server , Windows SQL Mobile 2005 in pocket pc 2003 using Compact Framework 2.0
Please advice..

Hi,
I have 2-3 tables which contains are getting conflict error "Primary Key Violation" because the Same Primary Key is getting updated both at Publishing end and Subscribing end.
Can this be resolved any how without any manual intervention?

Hello.I am trying to use Transact SQL to prepare publication for replication (SQL Server 2000 SP4 and SQL Mobile). I can easily create publication, add filters etc. but there is one thing which I can't find : parameter which tells me subscriber type and allow me to change subscriber type for publication. I don't know where I can change (or even if I can change) this property.
If someone made publication for mobile devices and replication with filters,resolvers etc. will it be a problem to share experiences here? Maybe some sample code with script or something what will guide me. Thanks in advance. Maciej Wysocki
what's the easiest way to script all table,views and stored procedures?
I would like to script them like from ssms i right click on each one and choose script table as --- but how can I do it for all of them at once?
I'm updating some tables in a subscriber database with a stored procedure. After the tables get updated I'd like to sync them with the other subscriber dbs and the publisher db in that same stored procedure.I can do it manually in SSMS with the View Synchronization method. Are my only alternatives a batch job or C#?

How do I find and change the parent object on this from 'dbo' to a non-dbo schema ownership?
Hi Folks,
I am writing a program that transforms a generic MS SQL database to make it compatible with our application. In order to make the transformation, I have to access all the elements of the generic database programmatically.
I know that the Master database contains all this information. Is there a query that allows me to access the "non-system" tables, sps, views, and functions?
For Tables, I need to know the Name(s) of the tables, the column names, the column type, ALLOW Nulls, Primary Key, Identity Seed settings, and Triggers.
For SPs, I need to know the Name(s) and access the SP source code (assuming it's unencrypted).
For Views, I need to know the Name(s) and access the Views Source
For functions, I need to know the Name(s) and access the function source.
I can see various tables in the Master database from management studio, like sys.objects, sys.tables - which look like they have the info I need. However, when I run a query against master like:
select * from sys.objects .. I get an error:
Msg 208, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Invalid object name 'sys.objects'.
Thank you in advance.
Hi,
I've a doubt regarding deploying and creating package (MSI and EXE files) for SQL Stored procedures,views,tables,functions,triggers etc.,just like ASP.NET application by publishing and deploying..Is it possible in the same way for sql objects.If so,pls help me how to do it?
Thanks in advance.

I have a custom conflict resolver - which fires on update conflicts (using row level tracking)
I have had a couple of occasions when the resolver has failed with the following error:
"The schema of the custom Dataset object implemented in the business logic handler does not match the schema of the source Dataset object. Verify that the custom Dataset object has been correctly defined"
In both cases I found that the row for which a conflict was being handled was not a conflict at all. One was a straightforward non conflicting update at the publisher and the other was a similar update at the subscriber.
I got round the problem by temporarily using a fix version of the conflict resolver dll that either set the custom Dataset to the publisher dataset or the subscriber dataset - depending on where the update had occurred.
When the first error (publisher update) occurred - the resolver code was basing the custom dataset on the publisher dataset - which was presumably empty - so I changed the code to base the custom dataset on the subscriber dataset. The second error therefore occurred when the custom dataset was based on the subscriber dataset - which again was presumably empty
Note that the tables involved in each occasion were different and neither table is filtered.
Is there a known bug in this area?
I am considering trying to change the resolver code to identify false conflicts in order to workround the problem - but this would be difficult to test as I can't reproduce the problem

Hi all,
Is there a way to replicate all data in a table but on certain columns avoid throwing a conflict? I have serveral SQL servers running Tx-Rep and almost all of the tables contain a DateModified field. I don't really need to check for conflicts on this data but want to keep it in tact as much as possible.
Any Ideas?
Thanks in advance,

Hello everybody,
we are running business critical application in 24*7 enviroment. Application is written in java and use JDBC 1.2 to read and write data into SQL 2005 SP2. We also use push transactional replication and as a part of this replication we run snapshot agent regulary.
Problem is that our java application receives regulary error: "Could not complete cursor operation because the table schema changed after the cursor was declared." After some further investigation with Profiler we found out, that snapshot agent calls sp_MSreplupdateschema with high probability this procedure changes at least modify_date of some tables included in replication. In profiler we also found that JDBC broadly uses cursors to access data. After the call sp_MSreplupdateschema all cursores declared before the call failed.
We tried to setup JDBC driver not to use cursors by setting SelectMethod=direct in configurations file. But this started deadlocks.
From my point of view it`s legitim to use cursors and snapshot agent together. The question is why snapshot agent modify table schema and how to solve this problem?
I send same question into Replication forum. Till now without any answer. I hope to have more luck there.
Thanks in advance for any advice
hi all
let's say i have three publications running on a network of one central server and four shops.
- a merge replication that keeps the price-table up to date between all shops and the central server
- a transactional replication of the arrived_orders-table from the central server to the shop in case
- a transactional replication of the sold_products-table fromt he shops to the central server.
the whole replication network runs on a distribution database that is located on the central server.
now, i've noticed already a few times, when a conflict occurs in one of the replications, also all other replications stop working. (for example when the transactional replication can not insert a line in the sold_products table because of a violation against a UNIQUE constraint in the central server).
Is it normal that also the merge replication and the other transactional replication don't do their inserts, updates etc any more????
Thanks
Hi Everyone!
Here another post on replication.
When conflict occur, I want the user to be able to select witch row to keep and witch to delete.
I've look for system stored procedure, that could help me do the resolution but I've founded nothing.
So I've thought that I could do it by hand, with UPDATE/DELETE query
Take the row in the %TABLE_NAME%_Conflict table and copy it into the real table, than delete the row.
I this the good way of doing it?
Is there any other way?
Thanks !
I am using MSDE 2000 for my replication. the problem is that althought at time creating publication it inserts GUID into every table but if one table in 2 nodes has same primary key, it inserts only one row ( accorrding to prority ). there are some Conflict Reslover methods that can be used for this purpose. i wanted to ask that is there any other way for me to resolve this conflict. i am asking for a new way because my database schema has been created and a lot of coding behalf of that schema has been done.
I'd be thankful if you guide me.

Hi..
I have configured publisher, distributer,subscriber... and tried to replicate it... it has done successfully...

can you please tell me how to check the replication is successfull or not.
and i want to add datas to publisher so that it should frequently updated in subscriber...
Hi all,
i think i have serious problem. i have almost 20,000 rows with the following conflict on a table (generated by merge replication over a period of around 3 weeks) :
'The row was updated at 'SubscriberServer3.DatabaseA' but could not be updated 'at 'PublicationServer1.DatabaseA'. Metadata mismatch'
i have 20 remote subscribers & 1 publisher. The above message originates from practically everywhere.
Besides dropping(not practical at the moment) & recreating replication to get rid of them, what else can i do to resolve this problem?? Do i have to resolve this problem row by row?? i'm at my wit's end. Please help!!
Thanx in advance.
Hi,
I have a batch file which is located in different server. When I try to execute in BIDS it is running fine. But when I execute as SQL agent job it is not executing.
In the execute process task under executable I have supplied the batch file path . For example \112.89.93.9abcsample.bat.
It is executing fine when I execute this in BIDS supplying the above path under executable. But when I run this as SQL agent job it keeps on running and does not end and it is doing anything.
Do I need to mention any cmd.exe file under executable and give the path under arguments tab?
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks
What is the main difference between snapshot and transactional and merge replication?
View 5 Replies View RelatedWe have on demand snapshot replication set up between 2 servers. When the subscriber applies the snapshot, our stored procedures start executing very slowly. Updating statistics and rebuilding indexes does not resolve the problem, however; executing sp_recompile on the affected stored procedures does fix the problem. Is this a known issue with replication? Is there a better workaround than manually recompiling stored procedures after every snapshot?
View 3 Replies View RelatedI have database on SQL Server 2000 set up with a merge publication.This publication is configured with a number of dynamic filters toreduce the amount of data sent to each client. Each client has ananonymous pull subscription. The merge process can be triggered by thewindows sync manager and my application.To improve performance I have created some helper tables to hold themapping between user login and primary keys of selected entities.For the replicated data to be correct the contents of the helper tablesneeds to be up to date.I need to fire off a stored procedure on the publisher beforereplication starts to verify that this data is up to date. I can notsee any documented way of doing this however I have been experimentingwith some unorthodox systems.Firstly has anyone any ideas?I have been considering adding a trigger to some of the tables used bythe Microsoft replication code - yes I know this is very nasty.My problems arise because executing this stored procedure will causesome data to be updated. In updating data we could create a newgeneration in the database. I must therefore run my stored procedurebefore any the Microsoft code makes any generation checks / updates.Anyone done anything similar, Anyone have any better ideas?Any comments would be gratefully received.
