Subquery Woes; Hints ?

Feb 9, 2008

hi all,
I'm trying to run queries on relatively small tables (a few hundred thousand rows) with subqueries of counts per primary key columns as such:

(ColA in tableA is the primary key)

select * from tableA p
where exists (select 1 from ( select ColA, count(1) cnt
from TableA
group by ColA
having count(1)>1 ) t
where t.ColA= p.ColA)
order by some_col

my problem is that sqlserver 2005 sp5 does not materialize the internal subquery properly, or execute it beforehand and it gets confused as heck and pegs the CPUs at 100% forever.

What hints can I use to solve this issue?
I've tried to use ..... "with ...." to prepare/materialize the table upfront, no luck, one version of statement pegged one cpu at 100%, while the other statement pegged ALL cpu's at 100% -- don't remember which.

My only solution right now was to create these subqueries as PHYSICAL tables -- and this would solve the problem but that would entail creating a lot of un-necessary objects.

thanks much for any feedback!!

Hints

Jul 23, 2005

I am kind of confused about the way SQL Server 2000 handles the hintsthat users supply with their SQL statements.[color=blue]>From BOL, it seems that one can specify them with "WITH (...)" clauses[/color]in SQL statements known as table hints. Sometimes, multiple uses ofthis form in a statement is OK. Then there is the OPTION clause forspecifying statement hints. However, the documentation on OPTIONsection discourages their use.Being relatively new to SQL Server and still learning about it, what isthe general practice? Use hints or not? And if so, how (through WITHor OPTION clauses)?Cheers!

Query Hints

My experience with query hints are that they are just that, a hint. What I don't understand is when does SQL decide to ignore your hint?

Index Hints

May 15, 2001

I am running SQL7 SP2 and and noticing table the query processor table scans when I ussue a between 'date1' and 'date2' instead of using the datetime index. If I put in the index hint (index = ix_datetimeXXXX) the query runs fine. My question is does this index hint restict the use of other indexes in the query and secondly how can I specify multiple index hints? Thanks in advance.

Locking Hints

May 1, 2007

Hi

My VB.Net (with SQL Server backend) application currently allows more than one user to look at a particular record at the same time. This is not a problem unless both those users also try to update that record as well. One user's changes then overwrite the other's.

I've been reading up on locking hints but my database knowledge is a little scant and I'm also rather dense and need things spelling out for me!! So I have a few questions that I hope someone can help with:

If I add an updlock to my update SQL statement, this would allow both users to view the record but would only allow one user's changes through. Is that correct?

For the other user, would SQL Server return an error message that I can use to tell the user that their update has not worked?

Would I have to get my VB.NET application to re-get the record information so that the user who's update failed can see the changes made by the other user and reapply their own changes?

Does the updlock become unlocked once the record is updated or do I need to specifically unlock it somehow?

Thanks!

BUG With Join Hints

Apr 20, 2007

I am having problems with doing what seams to be a very easy query. For some reason the SQL Server is trying to do nested loops instead of hash join. I tried to force the use of the hash join using the join hint.





Query 1


select *
from DIM_DATE DD
inner hash join (
select A.student_key,
CONVERT(int, CONVERT(varchar, COALESCE (A.date_withdrawn, getdate()), 112)) AS date_withdrawn_current
FROM FACT_STUDENT AS A
) SSE on DD.date_key= date_withdrawn_current
This query gives an error:

Msg 8622, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Query processor could not produce a query plan because of the hints defined in this query. Resubmit the query without specifying any hints and without using SET FORCEPLAN

Second query is not really what I want but it illustrate that it works fine when getdate() is not used.



Query 2


select *
from DIM_DATE DD
inner hash join (
select A.student_key,
CONVERT(int, CONVERT(varchar, COALESCE (A.date_withdrawn, A.date_enrolled), 112)) AS date_withdrawn_current
FROM FACT_STUDENT AS A
) SSE on DD.date_key= date_withdrawn_current
Is there some problem with using function getdate() ? It works fine in SQL Server 2000

This problem occurs on the SQL Server 2005 SP2 ( 9.00.3050.00 (X64) )
and (9.00.2050)

Adding Product Of A Subquery To A Subquery Fails?

Jul 6, 2014

I am trying to add the results of both of these queries together:

The purpose of the first query is to find the number of nulls in the TimeZone column.

Query 1:

SELECT COUNT(*) - COUNT (TimeZone)
FROM tablename

The purpose of the second query is to find results in the AAST, AST, etc timezones.

Query 2:

SELECT COUNT (TimeZone)
FROM tablename
WHERE TimeZone NOT IN ('EST', 'MST', 'PST', 'CST')

Note: both queries produce a whole number with no decimals. Ran individually both queries produce accurate results. However, what I would like is one query which produced a single INT by adding both results together. For example, if Query 1 results to 5 and query 2 results to 10, I would like to see a single result of 15 as the output.

What I came up with (from research) is:

SELECT ((SELECT COUNT(*) - COUNT (TimeZone)
FROM tablename) + (SELECT COUNT (TimeZone)
FROM tablename
WHERE TimeZone NOT IN ('EST', 'MST', 'PST', 'CST'))

I get a msq 102, level 15, state 1 error.

I also tried

SELECT ((SELECT COUNT(*) - COUNT (TimeZone)
FROM tablename) + (SELECT COUNT (TimeZone)
FROM tablename
WHERE TimeZone NOT IN ('EST', 'MST', 'PST', 'CST')) as IVR_HI_n_AK_results

but I still get an error. For the exact details see:

[URL]

NOTE: the table in query 1 and query 2 are the same table. I am using T-SQL in SQL Server Management Studio 2008.

Confused About Using Lock Hints?

Mar 19, 2006

I noticed that the online books say the following:
Note  The SQL Server query optimizer automatically makes the correct determination. It is recommended that table-level locking hints be used to change the default locking behavior only when necessary.
Also, at another place in online books, it says:
The table hints are ignored if the table is not accessed by the query plan.
From the above, it seems that using locking hints is not going to guarantee that SQL Server will follow them. Is this true?

Reason To Use Optimizer Hints

Aug 5, 1999

While investigating performance problems within an application recently I carried out some tests using SET SHOWPLAN ON.

I had a query like this within a stored procedure:

SELECT MAX(X) FROM Y WHERE Z LIKE @MYVAR

Where @MYVAR was passed in. I discovered that SQL Server did a Table Scan even when Z had an index on it. A problem with 200,000 rows!

If I said

SELECT MAX(X) FROM Y WHERE Z LIKE 'HELLO%'

(i.e., used a constant instead of a variable) SQL Server did use the index correctly and did not do a table scan.

I got around this by rewriting my statement:

SELECT MAX(X) FROM Y (INDEX=MYINDEX) WHERE Z LIKE @MYVAR

in other words by manually specifying the index I had created on the Z column.

Hope this helps someone.

SQL Seems To Ignore UPDLOCK &&amp; ROWLOCK Hints

Dec 3, 2007



I've got a SELECT WITH (UPDLOCK, ROWLOCK) WHERE followed by an UPDATE WHERE statement. The results of the SELECT statement are deserialized in C# and updates are made to the deserialized object. Then the object is serialized back into the table with the UPDATE statement. I've got this code running within a transaction scope with the ReadCommited isolation level.

My service receives requests to update data and the requests can come in on different threads. What I'm seeing, is that once in a while, the log messages from my application indicate that two different threads are able to issue the above SELECT statement and both are receiving results. This is a problem since the thread that issues the last UPDATE will overwrite the changes made by the first. Each thread has its own connection and transaction scope.

I've researched all over the place and have tried a few different things, but all things point to the fact that query hints are just hints and that SQL may or may not pay attention to them. If that's the case, how am I suppose to perform a SELECT with the intention of updating so that no one else can do the same? I haven't tried table level locking, but I'd really like to avoid that if possible.

Join Filter Causes Conflicting Locking Hints

Jul 14, 2006

Hi,

Using Merge replication, I have a table that is filtered using the HOST_NAME() function. The filter also makes use of a function (as the HOST_NAME() is overriden to return some complex data).

Everything replicates and filters just fine. but when I add a join filter on a different table (the join filter is a simple foreign key join) I get the following error when the snapshot agent is run:



Message: Conflicting locking hints are specified for table "fn_GetIDList". This may be caused by a conflicting hint specified for a view.
Command Text: sp_MSsetup_partition_groups
Parameters: @publication = test1



fn_GetIDList is the function used in the original filter.

Thanks for any help

Table And Query Hints Not Working In SSCE 3.1 ?

Aug 23, 2007

I am trying to use hints and they don't seem to be working.
Something like:

select * from TABLE_NAME with (tablock,xlock)

fails.

Documentation clearly states that this is supported (TABLOCK, NOLOCK, XLOCK, etc.), so I must be missing something simple.

Please let me know how do I use Hints in SQL Server 2005 Compact.
Thanks.


PS.
I am using C#. It doesn't work in my code when I use

SqlCeDataReader rs = cmd.ExecuteReader();

And it doesn't work from inside the VS 2005 "query tool" or whatever it is called, when you do "Connect to Database" and so on.

Using Lock Hints In Query In An OLE DB Command Component

Dec 3, 2007

Do you know of a way, in the OLE DB Command (Executing a sql command for each record), to specify a lock hint?

Example: in my component, I want to update a table but I want to specify a ROWLOCK or UPDLOCK hint.

When I try using this sql statement in the 'SqlCommand' property:

UPDATE DIM_Accounts WITH (UPDLOCK)

SET COL1 = ''

SSIS gives a syntax error.

Do you know any workarounds?

Thanks!

Standard Packages - Where To Store? Hints Needed

Jul 25, 2006

Hi,

I would like to implement a kind of standard packages which can be used in all other processes and will be started using the variables.

But I do not know where to store these kind of packages in "best practise", because we

- would like to use them in Dev and in "Real" also without having to change something in the other processes

- we are storing the packages in the folders of the package store

and as far as I understood I would have to share the package store to all developers though that they would be able to do this?

Then I would better choose another folder with defined access rights I think...

Or would it be better to spend some time in developing a custom component?
But this component would work with recordsets rather than the standard data flow elemtents and therefor I would expect a leak of performance...
Or is it possible to do "trasnformation" from a packae to a custom component?

Thanks in advice!

cheers,
Markus

Queue Processing Using Updlock, Readpast Locking Hints

Apr 25, 2008

This article instructed me on how to process rows from a table used as a data queue for multiple processes.

http://www.mssqltips.com/tip.asp?tip=1257

I tested this against the AdventureWorks DB (SQL 2005) and multiple SQL connections inside of Sql Mgmt. Studio).

Connection1:


BEGIN TRANSACTION


SELECT TOP 1 * FROM Production.WorkOrder WITH (updlock, readpast) --skips over locked rows
--COMMIT TRANSACTION

Connection2:


BEGIN TRANSACTION


SELECT TOP 1 * FROM Production.WorkOrder WITH (updlock, readpast) --skips over locked rows

COMMIT TRANSACTION



This works like I want where connection 2 skips over the locked row from connection 1 and gets the next available record from the table / queue. However, when I add ORDER BY tsql to each sql statement, connection 2 is now blocked waiting for Connection 1 to commit. (This is not what I want)

Connection1:


BEGIN TRANSACTION


SELECT TOP 1 * FROM Production.WorkOrder WITH (updlock, readpast) order by DueDate

--COMMIT TRANSACTION

Connection2:


BEGIN TRANSACTION


SELECT TOP 1 * FROM Production.WorkOrder WITH (updlock, readpast) order by DueDate --is blocked until connection 1 commits transaction

COMMIT TRANSACTION




How do I prevent blocking when using these locking hints with ORDER BY?


thanks

inner join CustomerOrderDetail cod ON cod.Order_ID = co.ID
where
co.StatusID = 8 -- Pending

Both of the tables are pretty big, detail table has more than million records, so scanning the table is a bad idea.

When I specify hint to use index then sql seeks, but how do I make SQL server to use index automatically? I don't want to use hints in my queries.

Thanks!

DTS Woes

Nov 26, 2001

I have a DTS setup that copies a couple of databases from one server to another in order to have a hot backup server. When I execute the DTS package from the DTS portion of the Enterprise Manager tree it runs fine. When I schedule it, it fails with the following error:

DTSRun OnStart: DTSStep_OMWCustomTasks.OMWTransferLogins_1
DTSRun OnError: DTSStep_OMWCustomTasks.OMWTransferLogins_1, Error = -2147467259 (80004005)

Error string: Unspecified error

Error source: Microsoft Data Transformation Services (DTS) Package
Help file: sqldts80.hlp
Help context: 700

I cannot find anywhere where this error is explained or even referenced. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

BCP Woes!

Mar 9, 2000

Here's the table:

Create Table{
id int
comments text}

Much of the data in the Comments field already has carriage return in it. When I use bcp out -c, it uses as a new record to figure out when the new row stats. However, the data in that column has carriage returns! Hence, when it detects the carriage return in the user data(comments) itself, it is pushing the remainder of that text to the 2nd line. Then, when I try to BCP IN, it is trying to push it into ID column!

The text file looks something like this:

ID COMMENTS
-- ---------
1 This is a very long comment with a line return now. User hits return here.
This should be part of the previous record but gets detected as a new row
2 Some Text
3 Some Text

So, in the BCP IN, it is trying to put 'This should be part of..' into the ID column and I am getting an error.

Is there any way I can get BCP to NOT recognize in user data as end of a record??

Thanks
Joyce

SSL Woes

Jan 10, 2007

We've had RS running on an internal network for a while now and initially
installed it with no SSL certificate.  We recently decided that we would like
to make some reports available through the web, and that we should secure the
data with SSL.  So, we registered and set up the subdomain, bought and
installed the certificate, closed off all but port 443 on the box in
question, and opened it up to the world.  We tweaked a few options in the RS
config files (after reading around):

RSReportServer.config:
-  SecureConnectionLevel changed from 0 to 2 (recommended) - this changed
all but the help file links to https://.
-  UrlRoot changed from HTTP to HTTPS, and also changed from internal to
external name (to match the SSL certificate)

RSWebApplication.config:
- ReportServerUrl changed from HTTP to HTTPS and changed from internal to
external name.

After this was changed, along with some IIS tweaks, we were able to get to
the report manager through the web, and force SSL only.  The problem right
now is that we are intermittently getting "Underlying connection closed"
errors (described here:  http://support.microsoft.com/kb/915599). ; The odd
thing is that we first get the Windows login prompt, wait about a minute then
get the error (which is encapsulated by the Report Manager page style). 
After a quick browser refresh, the Report Manager appears almost instantly,
with no 2nd request for a windows login.

My question:  Are there any IIS or RS config settings I can look at, or any
log file entries I should look for in order to determine the cause of this
problem?  My guess at this point is the error has to do with some sort of
timeout, but to be honest, I have no clue.

Thanks in advance!

Intersect Woes.

Oct 18, 2006

I want to be able to intersect many tables. I am building my query from vb code in asp .net based on key fields entered in a search engine box.my query should look like this, which will return the rows that will have the values var, var_2, var_3 in any columns.  All three must be in a row for it to be a hit.  I cant get this to work in ms sql.  I don't know if it supports this feature.select * from t where column1 Like '%var%' or column2 like '%var%' or column3 like '%var%'intersect select * from t where column1 Like '%var_2%' or column2 like '%var_2%' or column3 like '%var_2%'intersectselect * from t where column1 Like '%var_3%' or column2 like '%var_3%' or column3 like '%var_3%'  I also googled around and found a where exists... But cant seem to figure out how to do multiple tables:select * from t where exists (select * from t where column1 Like '%var_3%' or column2 like '%var_3%' or column3 like '%var_3%') i would like to add multiple conditions to the where exists table.  Could anyone please tell me what I am doing wrong.

Transaction Log Woes 1/24/00

Jan 24, 2000

Taking the advise from one of the postings I removed the setting for checkpoint log
on checkpoint. I have set up a batch job that does a dbcc checktable (syslogs)
and a dump transaction with no_log every 15 minutes. We are a development
shop and do not need the transaction log, I would have liked to use the truncate
log on checkpoint. I found that the transaction log seems to grow indefinitely by
viewing DBCC sqlPerf and sp_spaceused if I do not first issue the checktable
command. Why is this needed? This is the same problem I had with the truncate log
on checkpoint option. Has anyone else encountered a similar problem? We have an
application that does single row inserts multithreaded at a rate of 2500 rows a second.
Without performing the dbcc checktable the log filled to over 80% in a 45 minute period.
Running the stored procedure with the two commands the logs stays under 40%.

SQLAgentMail Woes!

Nov 10, 2004

Trying to get my jobs to send mail when job fails. Should be easy but it's giving me headache

Had a whole slew of issues. Outlook is installed with a n outlook mail profile set up that can send mail in outlook. I can create a SendMail DTS and execute it to send mail

Email works in these scenarios
1. I create a DTS package in SQL Server with just SendMail with the same Profile "ABC" and click Execute and it sends
2. I can send using Outlook with the same profile "ABC"
3. I can run DTSRun with command prompt calliing the DTS package and it sends fine

However it wont send in these 3 scenarios (where I need it!):

1. I go to Operator, and put my Profile "ABC" in the Email Name, click Test and I get this error "Error 22022: SQLServerAgent Error: The SQLSErverAgent mails ession is not running; check the mail profile and/or the SQLServerAgent service startup account in the SQLSErverAGent Properties
sQLServer Agent is running

2. If I add the DTS Package "EmailTest" to one of my jobs as a step to go to if the 1st step fails, nothing gets sent

3. In JObs -- Notificatioin, If I set the E-maill operator to my operator, nothing gets sent

I set the Mail Profile to the Mail Profile (in SQL Server AGent' properties)
However when I click Test, I get this error:
Error 0: Cannot load the DLL sqlmap70.dll, or one of the DLLs it references

I am using
SQLServer Version 8.00.194,
OS Windows 2003

Help!
