Sql 2005 Install Error. MODIFY FILE Failed. Specified Size Is Less Than Current Size.
Jun 15, 2006
I installed sql 2005 a while back. Then I recently found out my file system was fat32 (I don't understand why the hardware people did this...) and I had to convert to NTFS. Naturally the sql service no longer worked so I uninstalled inorder to reinstall now I can't reinstall it I keep getting this message
native_error=5039, msg=[Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]MODIFY FILE failed. Specified size is less than current size.
I'll try to post the full log in a new post.

I am trying to resize a database initial log file from 500M to 2M. I€™m using€?
ALTER DATABASE <DBNAME> MODIFY FILE ( NAME = <DBLOGFILENAME, SIZE = 2 ) "
And I'm getting "MODIFY FILE failed. Specified size is less than current size." I tried going into the database properties and setting the log file to 2M, but it doesn€™t keep the changes.
Any help with this process?

Here are my scenarios:
We have an application with replicated environment setup on sql server 2012 . Users will have a replica on their machines and they will replicate to the master database. It has 3 subscriptions subscribed to the publications on the master db.
1) We set up a replica(which uses sql server 2012) on a machine with no sql server on it. After the initial synchronization(used replmerge tool) the mdf file has grown to 33gigs and ldf has grown to 41 gigs. I went to sql server management studion . Right click and checked the properties of the local database. over all size is around 84 gb with little empty free space available.
2) We set up a replica(which uses sql server 2012) on a machine with sql server 2008 on it. After the initial synchronization(used replmerge tool) the mdf file has grown to 49 gigs and ldf has grown to 41 gigs. I went to sql server management studio , Right click and checked the properties of the local database. over all size is around 90 gb with 16 gb free space available.
3) We set up a replica(which uses sql server 2012) on a machine with sql server 2012 on it. We have dropped the local database and recreated the local db and did the initial synchronization using replmerge tool. The mdf file has grown to 49 gigs and ldf has grown to 41 gigs. I went to sql server management studio , Right click and checked the properties of the local database. over all size is around 90 gb with 16 gb free space available.
Why it is allocating the space differently? This is effecting our initial replica set up times.

I want to store a Zip file as a BLOB, but I get an error:
"File 'C:<path of mdf file> ' appears to have been truncated by the operating system. Expected size is 2560KB but actual size is 1536KB "
whenever the BLOB exceeds 1MB.
Any suggestions? How can I store larger .ZIP files to the Database?
I am using MS SQL 2005 Express and the data type that I gave for the column to store Blob is "varbinary(MAX)".
I am inserting byte array in to this field.
It works fine for a zip file less than 1MB but as soon as the zipped file size increases beyond 1MB, lots of error pop-up and then the database is not readable. Its says that, the data in the data base may have been corrupted...

Using C#, SQL Server 2005, ASP.NET 2, in a web app, I've tried removing the size from parameters of type NCHAR, NVARCHAR, and VARCHAR. I'd rather just send a string and let the size of the parameter in the SP truncate any extra chars if need be. I began getting the error below, and eventually realized it happened only with output parameters, as in the code snippet below.String[3]: the Size property has an invalid size of 0. par = new SqlParameter("@BusinessEntity", SqlDbType.NVarChar); par.Direction = ParameterDirection.Output; cmd.Parameters.Add(par); cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();What's the logic behind this? Is there any way around it other than either finding out what the size should be, or assigning a size larger than would ever be needed? ThanksMike Thomas

I have a log file that is approximately 50 GIG. I backed up just the log and the file size of the .bak is 192 GIG . Why is this? Shouldn't it be closer to the 50 GIG.
Normally I wouldn't let log grow this much. But we are in process of getting new server up and running and don't have backups going yet. They are working on getting that up and running this week.
So I did a log backup to give me back some log space for now but was concerned when I saw the size of the .bak file.
When I view media contents of the backup device it shows one tranaction log back up and size of 192 GIG.
What is up with this. I know in SQL 2000 the log backup files where never this big. they were about the size of the log itself.
Any ideas?

From BOL, I see these remarks with respect to the MODIFY FILE subcommand (my underline added):
Initializing Files
By default, data and log files are initialized by filling the files with zeros when you perform one of the following operations:
Create a database
Add files to an existing database
Increase the size of an existing file
Restore a database or filegroup
Which leads me to believe that expanding the size of a datafile will also wipe out (my definition of 'initialize') any existing data within that file.
I may be misunderstanding 'initialize', because when I tested it out, I found this wasn't the case - my table data written to the file was still there after a resize.
Need to clarify to what degree I'd be taking a risk by increasing the file size on a datafile which already has data in it.

How do I find the current size of each field in a table's column?
I have a table with a field for notes/memos. I need to see which ones are about to reach the size limit and what the current size is.
Does this make sense?

Hi
When I export a report to XLS, I get a huge file size, and performance really takes a hit.
When I copy the Excel Data, and Paste Special - Values into a new excel, the file size shrinks considerably again.
When I export to CSV instead, the file size is halved, and the processing time comes down from 5-6 mins to 10 seconds.
I use SQl 2005 with SP2, so some of the old problems with RS2000 do not apply.
I suspect SSRS uses XML to export to excel. Is there some way I can get over this problem?
TIA

Greetings:
I have a database that is 1.7terabyte in size with 136gb free and throws a "transport level error" telling me to discard the results when I run dbccshrinkfile ('DBNAME', size). I have tried various increments of size, from truncateonly to 1MB below its current value, and nothing works. I have tried to detach and reattach the db, restart the service, restart the server, and none have provided a solution. Any ideas?
Regards,
Derek

A simple alter statement to populate a column is giving the error below.
UPDATE AM_PROFILE_4101_0 SET _92284 = CONVERT(varchar(1000),fv.varcharValue)
FROM AM_PROFILE_4101_0 pt
INNER JOIN cyfield_value fv ON fv.fieldID = 92284 AND pt.AM_PROFILE_ID = fv.AMid
Cannot create a row of size 8125 which is greater than the allowable maximum of 8060.
The table as many varchar(max) columns such as _92284, and many are populated with around 1000 bytes of data. Everything I'm reading tells me SQL 2005 supports large row sizes. But why is this error still coming up.
Other usage info: These numbered columns (i.e. _92284) are dropped, added, and repopulated with data every night.
Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thank you!

Hi All...Thanks in advance for any help...
I am having an issue with SQL 2005 SSIS package...Win 2003 SP2...SQL 2005...
We receive files in the format of .TRK into an input directory...These files then are copied to a local directory on server and a .bat file loops through renaming each .TRK to MyFile.Txt...MyFile.Txt is then uploaded to a SQL table via DTS...Nothing complicated...The DTS runs fine when MyFile.Txt is placed there manually and executed...The rub is the call through batch file...
Here's the bat file...
ECHO ON
CD D:DOF
SET FromDir=D:DOFftp_in
SET ToDir=D:DOFconfirm
SET RemoteRoot=\MEMSRV079D$DOFGensrvnt
REM get files from remote server
MOVE %RemoteRoot%DOFOut*.trk D:DOFFTP_In
CD D:DOFFTP_In
FOR %%F IN (*.*) DO (
SET File=%%F
COPY %FromDir%%%F %ToDir%%%F
RENAME %%F MyFile.txt
DTSRUN /S MEMSRV079 /E /R /N "DOF_SAP_Confirm" > D:DOFLOGDOF_SAP_Confirm.run
DEL %FromDir%MyFile.txt
)
CD D:DOF
Works fine on Win2000 / SQL2000 environment but DTS had to be in MetaData, not normal...
All the copy, renames, etc in batch file work correctly...
Here's the error from DTS log...ie...The .run from above...
DTSRun: Loading...
Error: -2147217355 (80041035); Provider Error: 0 (0)
Error string: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Packet size change not honored by server, server size used
Error source:
Help file:
Help context: 0
Here's my trouble shooting...Reinstall SP2 on Windows to get MDAC 2.8 version...MS KB article states that the ODBC registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESOFTWAREODBCINST.INISQLServerDriverODBCVer should be 3.7 or greater...It's 3.5 on this server...MDAC 2.8 (which is installed with Win2003 SP2) is supposed to take care of installing right driver...All registry keys point to the proper version of sqlsvr32.dll in .WindowsSystem32...
I'm at a loss...Currently we are looking at rewriting the bat file in C# or something similar...I would really like to get running as is...
Thanks in advance...

Hi folks,Can anyone enlighten me here? I'm trying to use a SPROC which, when supplied with an int, looks up the table and returns certain columns from it. I'm using a SqlCommand, here's my codebehind: ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ SqlCommand dataSource = new SqlCommand("retrieveData", new SqlConnection(dbConnString)); dataSource .CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure; dataSource .Parameters.AddWithValue("id", poid); dataSource .Parameters.AddWithValue("title", title).Direction = ParameterDirection.Output; dataSource .Parameters.AddWithValue("creator", creator).Direction = ParameterDirection.Output; dataSource .Parameters.AddWithValue("assignee", assignee).Direction = ParameterDirection.Output; etc, etc...

For example, cardnumber varchar(20) Encrypted by Triple_DES and PassPhrase, How match size does need to encrypted data store field.
I think the size does not depend to PassPhrase char length.

Just wanted to know what is a general rule of thumb when determining log file space against a database's data file.We allow our data file for our database to grow 10%, unlimited. We do not allow our log file to autogrow due to a specific and poorly written process (which we are in a three month process of remove) that can balloon the log file size.Should it be 10% of the Data file, i.e. if the Date file size is 800MB the log file should be 8MB?I realize there are a myraid of factors that go against file size but a general starting point would be nice.ThanksJeff--Message posted via http://www.sqlmonster.com

Hi,
An MSSQL DB running SAP indicates a smaller DB size (MMC & SAP) than the actual physical size. The difference is about 8 GB.
A lot of records were deleted before this. Did they remain in the DB as NULL values or something ?
Does anyone know what the reason for this could be ? And how to clean this up ?
Thanks in advance,
Paul

Hi,
i use this script that show me the size of each table and do the sum of all the table size.
SELECT
X.[name],
REPLACE(CONVERT(varchar, CONVERT(money, X.[rows]), 1), '.00', '') AS [rows],
REPLACE(CONVERT(varchar, CONVERT(money, X.[reserved]), 1), '.00', '') AS [reserved],
REPLACE(CONVERT(varchar, CONVERT(money, X.[data]), 1), '.00', '') AS [data],
REPLACE(CONVERT(varchar, CONVERT(money, X.[index_size]), 1), '.00', '') AS [index_size],
REPLACE(CONVERT(varchar, CONVERT(money, X.[unused]), 1), '.00', '') AS [unused]
FROM
(SELECT
CAST(object_name(id) AS varchar(50)) AS [name],
SUM(CASE WHEN indid < 2 THEN CONVERT(bigint, [rows]) END) AS [rows],
SUM(CONVERT(bigint, reserved)) * 8 AS reserved,
SUM(CONVERT(bigint, dpages)) * 8 AS data,
SUM(CONVERT(bigint, used) - CONVERT(bigint, dpages)) * 8 AS index_size,
SUM(CONVERT(bigint, reserved) - CONVERT(bigint, used)) * 8 AS unused
FROM sysindexes WITH (NOLOCK)
WHERE sysindexes.indid IN (0, 1, 255)
AND sysindexes.id > 100
AND object_name(sysindexes.id) <> 'dtproperties'
GROUP BY sysindexes.id WITH ROLLUP) AS X
ORDER BY X.[name]
the problem is that the sum of all tables is not the same size when i make a full database backup.
example of this is when i run this query against my database i see a sum of 111,899 KB that they are 111MB,but when
i do full backup to that database the size of this full backup is 1.5GB,why is that and where this size come from?
