We have a system that has been running for years and some of the .asp pages haven't been touched in years, but about 10 days ago the same SQL stmts that have always been there have been returning
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'
Unspecified error
This is on SQL Server 2000
MDAC 2.81.1128.0
Windows 2000 SP4
IIS
The problem is this occurs at random. The statement will execute 5x, then fail once, then run 2 more times and fail again. There isn't a problem with the SQL itself as the same Select stmt will fail or pass randomly. I can also take and execute the stmt manually and it will also pass. There are about 5 places it occurs in our pages. Here is on particular example. Note that DataRS("acc_num") is a valid value and will return just fine if I manually execute it and will pass probably 75% of the time as it is, but 25% of the time will fail with above error.
CMD = "SELECT TOP 1 id, acc_num, businessType, mdCountry, cust_lec, First_Name, Last_Name FROM accounts WHERE (Acc_Num = '" & DataRS("acc_num") & "')"
AccRS.Open CMD, DBConn, adOpenForwardOnly
Not sure at all what is causing this. I've haven't been able to find anything conclusive in the SQL Profiler either.
Any ideas?
Is this the correct version of MDAC? I tried to get the latest, but it was an earlier version .1117.
We hit this error about 2 weeks ago on SQL Server 2000 and it seems to be getting worse. We have a table that stores phone numbers (wtns). We have a number of pages that query this table. I can sit and click a link that queries this table over and over and finally after about 40-50 clicks, it will fail and repeatedly fail for about a minute with: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'Unspecified error If our system is busy, I can get to the error much quicker. The strange thing is this table and these pages have not been modified, some of them haven't been touched in years so these queries worked just fine for that long until Dec 4th when the problems started (nothing significant happened that day or prior to that either). I have the SQL Profiler running and what I see is the SELECT stmt completes just fine. The stmt looks as expected and I can even run it manually and it works fine. Then I see a series of audit login audit logout pairs in the profiler but nothing else, where I would expect to see more Queries from that page on other tables. If I go to any of the 5 pages or so that has a similar query to this table, I can get the same error. No other table in our DB causes this problem. There is no problem cleaning up the connection/resultset either. Any ideas where to look? We've done alot recently to try and fix it: Reinstalled MDAC, reinstalled SQL Server SP, increased memory, shrunk the trans log, reindexed the table, changed the cursor around (made it readonly as it initally wasn't), modified permissions. Nothing seems to work. This is on SQL Server 2000MDAC 2.81.1128.0Windows 2000 SP4IIS Our Connection string looks like the following: Session("Conn") = "DRIVER={SQL Server};SERVER=DS20021218001;DATABASE=ODB;UID=webUser;PWD=*** Any ideas on where to go next? What to try?
I have a DTS to transfer logins from one server to a another server. I have put the syslogins.dat file in the share directory. But this DTS is giving 'Unspecified Error'. Any help would be appreciated.
I'm writing a PDA app which has an SQL CE database on the storage card. Under certain circumstances, I get an Error Code 80004005 ; "Unspecified Error" exception (henceforth referred to as "The Error".
I can write to a certain table (the only one which has a problem) many times on the first run of the app since the database was created. However if I exit and reload the app, the error starts hapenning. It does not go away until I delete the database and re-create it.
The database has a password (I've tried with and without this to no avail) and the temp file is being stored on the Storage Card (the PDA itself doesn't have enough memory).
I have been extensively searching the net for existing solutions. I found this one from microsoft, (http://support.microsoft.com/?kbid=919150) which suggests the PDA is coming out of suspend mode and trying to access the Storage Card. This sounds reasonable and similair to my case. I would like to change my code so it is not coming out of suspend mode (instead of trying to find that hotfix) but I don't know what suspend mode is. The code is being called from a button's handler. This sounds like it is coming out of suspend mode, doesn't it?
Has anyone else seen this? It has brought my project to a grinding halt and I can not see anything wrong with my code (it's doing the same insert command I've done a million times before on other tables).
I have lost the ability to query any table in my database using the Query Designer/table viewer in Enterprise Manager. I get the following error: Query Designer has encountered an error. Unspecified error.
I can still query the table from SQL Query Analyzer and the client front end. Has anyone seen this problem before?
Using the lookup on a table, working with Haselden book, I plug into table on the reference table tab and then press columns tab and get "Unspecified Error" Any thoughts?

Hello, we've developed an application that runs on AXIM X51, if it is an important to know.
The data layer handles the connection using the singleton pattern, a bit of code of this is:
(....) Private Shared ceConnection As SqlCeConnection (....)
Public Shared Function GetConnection() As SqlCeConnection Try If (ceConnection Is Nothing) Then ceConnection = New SqlCeConnection(Me.connectionString) End If
If (ceConnection.State = ConnectionState.Closed) Then ceConnection.Open() End If
Return ceConnection Catch ex As Exception Throw ex End Try End Function
(....)
So far nothing strange. We started experiencing problems when the end-users get an "Unspecified error" which later debugging it we got the href value inside the exception object is -2147467259 and nothing else. And if that wasn't enough I couldn't replicate the error in my pocket.
The only way I got the same error was removing the SD Card where the db is located at the same time the application was still open.
Does anybody experienced the same problem??? I researched about this kind of errors "when the device is just restored from the suspend mode" but with out luck.
Please, I really appreciate any help with this issue. Any comment will be more than welcome.
i m getting the following error while exporting an excel file in SSIS

Greetings: We have a database with approximately 15-20 tables. Last week, using Enterprise Manager, we were able to open any of these tables and return all rows. Yesterday, when we tried to do this, we got the following message:
An Unexpected Error happened during this operation. [Query] - Query Designer encountered a Query Error: Unspecified Error
Can anyone tell me what might be causing this and how to fix it? Barring that, can anyone suggest some general steps I might take to possibly eliminate this problem without knowing the cause? Last, can you point me to a good resource for investigating problems of this kind, such as a knowledge base (other than Microsoft's TechNet)?
I need you help badly. Iam a student and iam working on "Creating a Mobile Application with SQL Server Compact Edition" http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms171908.aspx . This tutorial works fine until

Make sure that the snapshot job has succeeded before you continue.
When I try to create a snapshot iam getting the following error "An unspecified error had occurred in the native SQL Server connection component." . I have no clue what to do next please help me out.
When using a subscription to send mail, I find that the report can be sent in any format apart from Excel, which gives me the error: "Failure sending mail: Unspecified error". As you can imagine, this doesn't give me much to go on!
I want to use Excel format as it retains the drilldown functionality (hiding / unhiding rows). The ExecutionLog has the status as rsSuccess, but Subscription tab for the report shows the error.
Inside a single transaction I'm inserting/updating multiple records into multiple tables, in this order: table 1 record 1 table 2 record 1 table 3 record 1 table 1 record 2 table 2 record 1 table 1 record 3 table 2 record 3 table 3 record 3
Now I'm getting an unspecified error on a certain table:
Indicates a data modification, such as an insert, an update, or a deletion. Ensures that multiple updates cannot be made to the same resource at the same time. (I assume that multiple updates within the SAME transaction can be made, only multiple updates from different transaction cannot be made, right?) I cannot find any reference to this error message and don't know what the numbers mean. Maybe it relates to data that can be found in the sys.lock_information table like explained here, http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms172932.aspx, but I'm not sure.
Furthermore, the sys.lock_information table is empty. I haven't been able to reproduce the problem myself. I only received an error log and the database to investigate it.
So, does anybody have an idea what this error message means and what I can do to troubleshoot this?

Usually the ".Update" triggers the exception, but sometimes the other sql commands do it. Have tried various experiments with disposing of objects immediately when finished, but no effect. Opening and closing the connection each loop seems to delay the errors, but it still happens eventually.

Hi,I need to extract randomly 5 records from the table "Questions". Now I useSELECT TOP 5 FROM Questions ORDERBY NEWID()And it works. The problem is that I need an additional thing: if SQLextracts record with ID=4, then it should not extract record with ID=9,because they are similar. I mean, I'd like something to tell SQL that if itextracts some questions, then it SHOULD NOT extract other ones.How can I do it?Thanks!Luke

I have a query that is exhibiting a strange behaviour on different databases.
I've got something like this ...
select a.col, ... from tab1 as a inner join ... union select a.col, ... from tab1 as a inner join ... order by col
I know how to fix the problem, I make the last line read "order by a.col" ... that is understood.
However, on some databases I get an error and on others I don't. All databases are on the same server instance which is sql server 2005 developer (developer version isn't relevant as it happens on customer machines too).
I'm just wondering if anyone has any ideas why it is 'random'. It's as though the statement is being compiled differently on different databases ... what is influencing that ?
I'm fishing for a way to create a workaround, so if anyone has any ideas it might push me down the road of understanding why.
The real code is way too big to include here and it's not really relevant.
As a clue to what I'm looking for, if I copy the database to another database using SSIS, the resultant database doesn't cause the error despite being logically the same.
Presumably it is some physical or security difference that is causing the error to occur.
Hi i have a problem with IIS6 and MSSQL and i hope that someone canhelp me.this is the configuration:Windows 2003IIS6MSSQL 7.0 Standard EditionADO 2.5I have the following error that occur randomly when browsing mywebsites.Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '80004005'[DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]Server SQL inesistente o accessonegato.(translate from italian: Server unexisting or access denied)it occurs when users (more than one but not hundred...) browse someasp pages where there's a lot ofrecordset opening-closing acivity.

I'm using ASP and SQL Serv 2000. What I need to get from 2 tables (company & customers) is random 10 customers from random 20 comp. Anyone got an idea how to do this??? I've spent 2 days trying to get stored proc. or T-SQL to work, but nothing good came out of it. I can get 1 comp and 10 cust, but not a grouped list of 20 comp. w/ 10 cust. each.
I´m having some trouble with a SSIS package that I´ve been using five months or so now.
I have a package scheduled to run every 2 minutes to load data into my SQL Server instance from our mobile computer systems. This data comes is read as flat file sources. My package runs 24/7.
My problem is that this package randomly returns "An error occurred while attempting to perform a type cast". This message is then returned during maybe 3 or 4 executions of the package. The error then vanishes into thin air, without me doing anything what so ever, and execution continues. The very same file that previously returned the errors is now processed without any problems.
I have no clue why this is, but I get the feeling that there has to be a reason for these random errors. To me, the type cast error seems to indicate problems with the data source (the flat file), but since the same file suddenly get processed without errors I have no clue where to start looking.
Hello, I get errors during import process from flat files to sql table (random missing rows) when I have more files to load through a "for each loop" cycle. If one of the files is not present (because not yet generated by an other process) many of the rows present in the next file are skipped during import operation. This happens even if the "maximumErrorCount" is set to 10000. The error reported is Warning: 0x8020200F at Import File Bolle , Source_Bolle [1]: There is a partial row at the end of the file Sql 2005 has Service Pack 2 installed. Can some one help me? Thanks and regards
I use ODBC driver to perform SQLServer commands from C/C++ application.
An "INSERT INTO <table> (<column>) VALUES (NULL)" command has a random behavior in a SQL2000 Server running on WindowsXP.
The <column> in this command has 2 definitions about the NULL value :
- the NULL is accepted in the table definition, with <column> ut_oui_non NULL".
- the NULL is rejected in the type definition, with EXEC sp_addtype ut_oui_non, 'char(1)', 'NOT NULL' and a rule to check values with '0' or '1'
1/ The column definition in any explorer show the NULL from table deffinition
2/ The "INSERT INTO" is completed in SQL Query tool, used on Windows2000 and WindowsXP computers, connected to the same SQL2000 server.
3/ The "INSERT INTO" is completed in the application, running on Windows2000 with an ODBC driver to the same SQL2000 server.
4/ The "INSERT INTO" is rejected in the application, running on WindowsXP witjh an ODBC driver to the same SQL2000 server. The error 513 means that INSERT VALUES conflicts with previous rule. So only the type definition seems to be used.
But :
5/ This is a random error, and some INSERT with the same values in this column are completed.
6/ This random error seems to be discarded by using the "Use NULLs, paddings and warnings ANSI" checkbox in the ODBC driver user source configuration.
This checkbox is only use for enforcing the ANSI syntax in SQL commands, and has no known effect on type checking.
Do you know about any conflict of column NULL value between a type definition and a table definition ?
We have gone with the approach of always storing DateTime in UTC. We are adding validation code to throw exceptions if any client code passes a date in that is not DateTimeKind.UTC. However, our validation is being tripped when populating our entity objects from the database, as the DateTimeKind on the DateTime value from the data reader comes in as Unspecified.
Any suggestions? Just toUtc the data reader value?
