SQL6.5
Jul 19, 2001The database devices was showing a negative number size, so i expanded the database which has cleared this problem, however, now when users try to input a form(each form is allocated a unique reference number) for this database the reference number has reset and is starting off at 1 instead of following on from the previous form number before this problem occurred.

Cannot Connect To SQL6.5 Through IPX
Sep 18, 1998I am attempting to connect to my SQL 6.5 Server through IPX. We currently have a WindowsNT network setup with a Novell Server v3.12 running as a file and login server. When I setup IPX/SPX as a network protocal to use, and then set it in the client configuration , I get a specific error.
"Cannot Connect To SQL Server : Login Failed"
Maybe I am missing a step in my setup somewhere. Has anyone encountered this with using IPX? It connects perfectly using named pipes, but only see this error when I try to use IPX. All help is appreciated. Thank You.

SQL7.0 And SQL6.5
Sep 10, 1998Can SQL6.5 and SQL7.0 live on the same NT4.0 server?
View 2 Replies View RelatedSQL6.5 Slow
Feb 16, 2001I just started as a junior dba and I'm monitoring a SQL6.5 database and I need some help with a certain issue, as to what I should be looking for.
Recently, the program we use to retrieve data from the database has been freezing up on everyone. What I did was just kill some user's processes from Enterprise Manager which seems to work. But we never had this problem before. And since everyone has been closing their programs prematurely, the error log contains many errors like this:
Error: 1608, Severity: 21, State: 2
A network error was encountered while sending data to the front end.
Error: 17824, Severity: 10, State: 0
Unable to write to ListenOn Connection pipesqlquery.....
We have a dedicated server for this database and there's about 20 requests to the database at any given time.
If anybody can tell me what to do, I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you.

View 7 Replies View RelatedSQL Server 2005: CLR Functions Vs SQL Functions
May 26, 2006I was playing around with the new SQL 2005 CLR functionality andremembered this discussion that I had with Erland Sommarskog concerningperformance of scalar UDFs some time ago (See "Calling sp_oa* infunction" in this newsgroup). In that discussion, Erland made thefollowing comment about UDFs in SQL 2005:[color=blue][color=green]>>The good news is that in SQL 2005, Microsoft has addressed several of[/color][/color]these issues, and the cost of a UDF is not as severe there. In fact fora complex expression, a UDF in written a CLR language may be fasterthanthe corresponding expression using built-in T-SQL functions.<<I thought the I would put this to the test using some of the same SQLas before, but adding a simple scalar CLR UDF into the mix. The testinvolved querying a simple table with about 300,000 rows. Thescenarios are as follows:(A) Use a simple CASE function to calculate a column(B) Use a simple CASE function to calculate a column and as a criterionin the WHERE clause(C) Use a scalar UDF to calculate a column(D) Use a scalar UDF to calculate a column and as a criterion in theWHERE clause(E) Use a scalar CLR UDF to calculate a column(F) Use a scalar CLR UDF to calculate a column and as a criterion inthe WHERE clauseA sample of the results is as follows (time in milliseconds):(295310 row(s) affected)A: 1563(150003 row(s) affected)B: 906(295310 row(s) affected)C: 2703(150003 row(s) affected)D: 2533(295310 row(s) affected)E: 2060(150003 row(s) affected)F: 2190The scalar CLR UDF function was significantly faster than the classicscalar UDF, even for this very simple function. Perhaps a more complexfunction would have shown even a greater difference. Based on this, Imust conclude that Erland was right. Of course, it's still faster tostick with basic built-in functions like CASE.In another test, I decided to run some queries to compare built-inaggregates vs. a couple of simple CLR aggregates as follows:(G) Calculate averages by group using the built-in AVG aggregate(H) Calculate averages by group using a CLR aggregate that similatesthe built-in AVG aggregate(I) Calculate a "trimmed" average by group (average excluding highestand lowest values) using built-in aggregates(J) Calculate a "trimmed" average by group using a CLR aggregatespecially designed for this purposeA sample of the results is as follows (time in milliseconds):(59 row(s) affected)G: 313(59 row(s) affected)H: 890(59 row(s) affected)I: 216(59 row(s) affected)J: 846It seems that the CLR aggregates came with a significant performancepenalty over the built-in aggregates. Perhaps they would pay off if Iwere attempting a very complex type of aggregation. However, at thispoint I'm going to shy away from using these unless I can't find a wayto do the calculation with standard SQL.In a way, I'm happy that basic SQL still seems to be the fastest way toget things done.

View 9 Replies View RelatedMust We Upgrade To SQL7 From SQL6?
Jul 4, 2000Hi all
I would like to know - we are currently running SQL6.0 on NT4 servers. We have 2 x 3rd party programs that runs on the servers, making use of the databases. We don't forsee any changes in the near future.
Question: will it be wise to upgrade to SQL7 anyways, or can we keep the status quo as is ???

SQL6.5==>SQL 7 Index & SP Not Imported.
Oct 21, 1998I installed SQL 7 on a new computer and imported DB from another SQL 6.5.
Tables were imported but index and SPs were not.
I had to script those objects and run it on SQL 7.
Any shortcut to import all objects directly?
Again I was importing not upgrading.
Tempdb Log Full?? SQL6.5
Aug 5, 1999Hi all,
I receive the following error message every time I run this script:
INSERT INTO archive_temp (mrn, folder, name)
SELECT a.mrn, a.encounter, a.name
FROM his..active a, cabinet..cabinet c
WHERE imnet like 'images3%'
ORDER BY a.mrn, a.encounter
GO
After 10 minutes I get this ERROR MESSG: Can't allocate space for object
'-1443' in database 'tempdb' b/c the 'system' segment is full. If you
ran out of space in Syslogs, dump the transaction log. Otherwise use
'Alter database" or sp_extendsegment to increase the size of segment.
So far, i've updated the tempdb log segment from 100 mb to 500 mb
shared with data. I don't understand why I am still getting this error.
When I look at Performance Monitor, the log for tempdb is not peaked at
all!
can anyone help?
Thanks
