Dear All,
i've created replication between two databases, but while trying to view synchronization status, it is saying that
you must crate a job for this subscription.
what should i do now?
please guide me

Even you learn 1%, Learn it with 100% confidence.
Started a publication on a few tables, and decided to cancel it. Now there are no publications set up, but the sharing hand is still there on the database, and agents all over the place. Boss is angry, can I tidy up this mess?
I can't convince him I haven't made changes to the production database...
The Agent has never been run occurred on Snapshot Agent Status-Replicationhow do I make it run successfully??
View 6 Replies View RelatedI have created a table Table with name as Varchar and id as int. Now i have started inserting the rows like, insert into Table values ('arun',20).Yes i have inserted a row in the table. Now i have got the values " arun's ", 50. insert into Table values('arun's',20) My sqlserver is giving me an error instead of inserting the row. How will you solve this problem?
This has worked fine for weeks, and months.
I'm running Vista Ultimate. SQL 2005 is set as my Default instance, and SQL2000 is set as (local)SQL2000.
Today, actually half way through today, I restarted my computer after installing Photoshop Updates.
Upon getting my computer back up and running, I cannot access SQL2000 from any website on my computer, nor can I access it from SQL2005 Management Stdio. I CAN access it from Enterprise Manager (SQL2000 tool).
Whenever I run an web app that connects to it I get this error:
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)
Now I usually get these when ASP.NET can't point to the right spot, but in this case I'm pointing exactly where I need to go. Any thoughts?

I should also add my password got changed a few days ago on our Domain. This was the first time restarting after the PW change.
One of our users tried to set replication solution in a sqlserver (the idea was given up).
SQL Server added in each table a column related to replication.
We want to remove theses columns and I used the following script :
select 'ALTER TABLE dbo.'+object_name(id)+' DROP CONSTRAINT '+object_name(constid)+' GO'
+'ALTER TABLE dbo.'+object_name(id)+' DROP COLUMN '+'msrepl_tran_version GO'
from sysconstraints where object_name(constid) like '%msrep%'
Question:
1. I want to know how to introduce a carraige return in order to have some thing like this :
...
ALTER TABLE dbo.T_CommandCopyFile
DROP CONSTRAINT DF__T_Command__msrep__44AB0736
GO
ALTER TABLE dbo.T_CommandCopyFile
DROP COLUMN msrepl_tran_version
...
2. Is there any other solution to do this more simply ?

View 2 Replies View RelatedHello, I am running out of ideas on how to get SSRS to work. I am trying get this setup with the intention to replace our Crystal Reports server. Currently I have set up the RS Virtual Directory on a Win XP box. The ReportServer database sits on another SQL2000 box.
I can connect to the http://localhost/ReportServer/ on the XP box to display the page the depicts "Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services Version 9.00.2047.00"
When I connect to the http://localhost/Reports/, I get this error "A name was started with an invalid character. Error processing resource 'http://leej/Reports/'. Line 1, Position 2" I checked my IIS Virtual Directory properties for Reports and ASP.NET is set to v2.0.50727. I also executed "aspnet_regiis.exe -i" in the "C:WINDOWSMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727" directory.
Any thought on how to fix this? I hate to let this blocker deters us from deploying SSRS.
Thanks,

trying to get a new database created then running a script to created the tables, relationships, indexes and insert default data. All this I'm making happen during the installation of my Windows application. I'm installing SQL 2012 Express as a prerequisite of my application and then opening a connection to that installed SQL Server using Windows Authentication.Â
E.g.: Data Source=ComputerNameSQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=master;Integrated Security=SSPI; Then I run a query from my code to create the database eg: "CREATE DATABASE [MyDatabaseName]".
From this point I run a script using a Batch file containing "SQLCMD....... Myscriptname.sql". In my script I have my tables being created using "Use [MyDatabaseName]   Go  CREATE TABLE [dbo].[MyTableName] .....". So question is, should I have [dbo]. as part of my Create Table T-SQL commands? Can I remove "[dbo]."? Who would be the owner of the database? If I can remove the [dbo]., should I also remove dbo. from any query string from within my code?
Hello,
I have created a package that check if a table exist otherwise it drop it, then it creates a new one (both with SSIS execute SQL task).
Then a Flow task run some transformation SSIS to load the table just created.
The problem is that when I run the package an error occur telling me that the table does not exist (if runs for the first time and in this case the table has not created yet).
How can I run a package that create a table and then Load it.
Thank
Hi,
I am stepping into the world of developing SSIS packages as part of a project I am working on, and I am kicking the tires at the moment, and I am having a couple of problems.
First, is there a really good source of 'how-to's in terms of developing against SSIS. There is plenty of documentation on MSDN/Technet, but there are NO books which cover managed DTS in ANY kind of depth.
Secondly, I am looking at bringing in an XML file programatcially, and linking in the columns I need. Works fine using the BI tools, but I get an error when I do it from visual studio.
The following code :
Code Block
IDTSComponentMetaData90 xmlinputfile;
Package package = CreatePackage("SSISPackage", "Test Package");
MainPipe pipe = AddDataFlowTask(package);
pipelineEvents = new ComponentEvents();
xmlinputfile = pipe.ComponentMetaDataCollection.New();
// configure it up...
xmlinputfile.ComponentClassID = "Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.XmlSourceAdapter, Microsoft.SqlServer.XmlSrc, Version=9.0.242.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=89845dcd8080cc91";
xmlinputfile.Name = "XML Source";
xmlinputfile.Description = "Source data in the data flow...";
CManagedComponentWrapper instance = xmlinputfile.Instantiate();
instance.ProvideComponentProperties();
// At this point you would normally associate with the runtime connection manager,
// but as it is an xml file, we do not need to do that
// We need to set the appropriate properties to look at our xml file...
instance.SetComponentProperty("XMLData", @"C:filechangedtoprotecttheinnocent.xml");
instance.SetComponentProperty("XMLSchemaDefinition", @"C:filechangedtoprotecttheinnocent.xsd");
instance.SetComponentProperty("AccessMode", 0);
instance.SetComponentProperty("UseInlineSchema", false);
// We need to set output connections....
instance.AcquireConnections(null);
instance.ReinitializeMetaData();
instance.ReleaseConnections();
IDTSVirtualInput90 vInput = xmlinputfile.InputCollection[0].GetVirtualInput();
// Iterate through the virtual input column collection.
foreach (IDTSVirtualInputColumn90 vColumn in vInput.VirtualInputColumnCollection)
{
}
When I go anywhere near the InputCollection[0], watch throws an exception, and the call to GetVirutalInput() throws the same exception which is :
System.Runtime.InteropServices.COMException was unhandled by user code
Message="Exception from HRESULT: 0xC0048004"

Does anyone have any kind of clue as to what is going on. I have seen comments on here from other people in regards to errors with input columns?? The XML files work fine in the editor as I said, and the XSD was generated by the editor using the Generate XSD option.

We recently migrated our production server from SQL 2005 (Standard) on Win2003(32-bit) to SQL2012 (Standard; v11.0.3000) on Win2008-R2(64bit). Single-server Dell R510 with 1.2TB storage. Everything went smoothly; the only nagging issue remaining is failure of our maintenance jobs. I tracked the issue down to failure of DBCC CHECKDB. Specifically, the error is:Executed as user: NT SERVICESQLSERVERAGENT. The database could not be exclusively locked to perform the operation. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 5030) Check statement aborted. The database could not be checked as a database snapshot could not be created and the database or table could not be lockedI have Googled this issue and read extensively. For instance, informative blogs (albeit dated) such as these by Paul Randal (Managing
CheckDB by default takes an internal DB snapshot to get the consistent, point-in-time view of the DB that it needs. If that snapshot creation fails, then it will try to get an exclusive database lock before proceeding (same as if you had executed DBCC CHECKDB WITH TABLOCK). The root problem is not that the lock could not be obtained, it's that the internal database snapshot could not be created. msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms188796.aspx details the specific situations when an internal database snapshot is not created and table locking is attempted.Â
 I have verified the SQLSERVERAGENT service account has full permissions on the SQLDATA directory where the databases reside and has full permissions on each database within the directory. Just for giggles, I created a job (run as SQLSERVERAGENT) that creates and then deletes a text file in the SQLDATA directory. It runs fine.
Also testedI get the snapshot creation error when manually running DBCC CHECKDB against any of our databases and when executing under a variety of administrator accounts that are members of the SQL sysadmin role and the Domain Admins security group (the Domain Admins is a member of the local Administrators group that has full permissions on all SQL directories/folders).
Additionally, the databases in question are small (200MB to 6GB) and the disk has plenty of elbow room (978GB free on 1.22TB RAID5 array) to create the internal database snapshots. CHECKDB doesn't surface an error message that is detailed enough to determine the precise cause of the error. Any example successfully running DBCC CHECKDB on the SQL2012 (Standard) on a Win2008 R2 (64-bit) server.
I have a report with a fixed header that works properly when the query returns results (or fixedheader = false). However, when the result set is empty, I get tenacious client-side "object required" errors. Obviously I can either turn the fixedheaders off or disable debugging in IE, but is there a Microsoft fix for this problem?
View 1 Replies View RelatedI've been working on an SSIS package trying to load some data and the archive sequence is faulty. I've been trying to load a few tables created in a previous sequence into a local archive file and I've been getting the error "Could not find a part of the path."
The results aren't telling me what it's finding last and so I don't know where to start.
And the source DOES have data in it. It's something between the source and the destination.
I have a package in which there are only one Data flow Task and it has only three components. 1) Source , which is a SQL db 2) destination and 3) OLE DB Destination flat file Error output file.  I want the error file to be created ONLY if there is any error while dumping the data into destination DB. But , the issue is, the error flat file is being created inspite of No error while dumping the  data from Source to Destination.

Dear All,
This is my first time posting in this forum, so forgive me if my post is out of place. If so, let me know.
I am trying to get started setting up a development server on Windows 2000. These are the componants I have installed so far:
- IIS 5
- MSDE Database Server
- .NET Framework 1.1
- MDAC (Microsoft Data Access Componants)
- ASP.NET Web Matrix
I have also downloaded a quickstart example, TimeTracker, to learn from.
Here is my problem: When I try to install TimeTracker, it does not detect a database connection. Also, when I try to connect to a database in Web Matrix, it says I need to have client tools installed. What are these and how to I get them?
Is there anyone that can give me a hand with this? Is it a matter of running the MSDE service? If so, how do you do this?
My apologies for not being more knowledgable, but thanks for helping me get started.
Sincerely,
Chris

i have roughly 10-15 access databases that i am trying to run through sql server express, i installed this thing thinking it would would "just work minus a little configuration", what a misconception.
so do tell, what do i need to do. i have sql server express running, it is configured to allow remote connections. i know the path's of these access databases. how do i attach them. i saw something about the command line interface but im not interested in that because of the number of databases i will need to manage, not to mention trying to add an additional one 6 months down the road and i will be lost all over again. i thought about downloading SQL Server Management Studio thinking it would be a "gui side" to the CLI version. while it was downloading, it said i need XX program, i go to that page, it says i need XX and XX first, it is turning into a pyramid scheme to install a billion programs.
so point blank, i want to share some access databases to my local lan, i have sql server express installed and running. what do i need to finish this out. the simplest and smallest footprint solution is needed.
all this because the program im using cant do remote databases. ugh.
