Hi
I want to trace all the selects/deletes/modifys whatever on a database
in an application that are performed in a seperate application.
I need to look into this, any ideas?
- Can triggers do this kind of thing
- Can you somehow access the profiler via OLE or similiar to do this?
- Anything else?

I would greatly appreciate any help with this problem, as I've been digging thru every resource I can find looking for a solution with no luck.
I'm going to be monitoring a database for all SQL statements containing INSERT, DELETE, or UPDATE. I'm grabbing the user name, time, and the entire text of the query. I can already do this programmatically, no problem. The problem lies in this. When I set up a trace on SQL Server 2000 using the system stored procedures sp_trace_create, sp_trace_setfilter, etc, and set the trace to save to a trace file, I find that I must first stop the trace then close the trace before I can use fn_trace_gettable to get the information that I want. However, this is undesirable, because this database may be accessed worldwide, and stopping the trace to read the data could cause the trace to miss some users making changes. Does anyone know how that I could get my trace data into a table so that I can just run queries on that table to get my data? It's very important that I not stop the trace to do this. Thanks for your help!

Hi,
I need to trace deadlock, one of article was mentioning “QL Server Profiler's Create
Trace Wizard to run the "Identify The Cause of a Deadlock" for SQL Server 7.0, is there any way I can do this in Sql Server 2000?
How would I go about tracing UDF performance in profiler? I'd like to
specifically know the impact of the UDF without having to dig into the
execution plan of the statement containing it. Is this possible?
I am fairly new to SQL Server. I am writing a tool in stored procedureto identify locks in a table. I have already written the basic frameworkof the SP. It will reside in master database and take two inputs. Databasename and table name. From that it will show all locks at that instanton that table of that database. If table name is omitted, then it will showlocks on all tables.I am using syslockinfo, spt_values tables and joining with SP_WHO procedureto get the table name, user name and the session id.Now what I need is to find out which SQL is causing the lock and since whenlock is being held on the table. Which tables in master database holds therequired information.TIA.Ravi

Hi,
I am using sp_executesql to get some data but it is not working. Is there a way to actually see the actual statement where subsituted variables are replaced with the actual values.
SET @SQLString = N'SELECT Top(1) @Passenger_OUT = Name, @Ticket_OUT = TicketNumber , @TAN_OUT= [TAN] '
+ N'FROM dbo.Table1 WHERE 1 = 1 '
+ Case @MatchAmount When 1 Then N' and Amount = @BillingAmount ' Else N'' End
+ Case @MatchTicket When 1 Then N' and LTrim(TicketNumber) = STUFF(STUFF(@TicketNumber,Len(@TicketNumber)-@RemoveRight+1,@RemoveRight,''''),1,@RemoveLeft,'''') ' Else N'' End
+ Case @DaysDiff When 0 Then N'' Else N' and DATEDIFF(d,@BillingDate , InvoiceDate) <= @DaysDiff ' End
+ Case @MatchName When 1 Then N' and Left(Name,@CharsToMatch) = Left(@PassengerName, @CharsToMatch) ' Else N'' End ;
SET @ParmDefinition = N'@BillingAmount decimal, @TicketNumber varchar(15), @RemoveRight tinyint, @RemoveLeft tinyint, @BillingDate datetime, @DaysDiff tinyint, @CharsToMatch tinyint, @PassengerName varchar(35), @Passenger_OUT varchar(35) OUTPUT, @Ticket_OUT varchar(15) OUTPUT, @TAN_OUT varchar(25) OUTPUT';
EXECUTE sp_executesql @SQLString, @ParmDefinition,@BillingAmount=@BillingAmount, @TicketNumber=@TicketNumber, @RemoveRight=@RemoveRight, @RemoveLeft=@RemoveLeft, @BillingDate=@BillingDate, @DaysDiff=@DaysDiff , @CharsToMatch=@CharsToMatch, @PassengerName=@PassengerName, @Passenger_OUT=@Passenger_new OUTPUT, @Ticket_OUT=@Ticket_new OUTPUT, @TAN_OUT=@TAN_new OUTPUT;
Print @SQLString will gives the statement with variables and I need to see the actual data plugged in during runtime.
If I take the ouput of @SQLString and run it myself by adding variables it works fine
Thanks

There is a bug in one of the service packs where Profiler (7.0) only traces one server (regardless of the server you tell it to trace). Can anyone tell me how to fix this or point me to a KB article? I thought this was fixed in SQL 7 SP 3, however I'm experiencing this problem with SP3 installed.
View 1 Replies View RelatedSQL 7 profiler has an event in the Misc. category of Failed Login. It does not, or at least I cannot get it to, produce any output when a failed login occurs. Any hints?
I tried this because every week or so I get this in the error log:
Login failed for user 'Admin'.
It occurs several hundred times within a minute or so. It obviously has to be an automated process as you couldn't click a button or press a key 13 times a second.
The login does not exist as a SQL login so I can't tell which database it is trying to get at. Any suggestions gratefully received.

Hi There,
I hope someone can assist me in tracing the cause of a problem I am experiencing. I have a Web Server with ASP's querying the SQL Server 6.50.416 database. There is only one user db on this machine and yet I am running out of User Connections (current setting 2000) and memory (128MB RAM). Also, NT repeatedly experiences Stack Dumps. I have used the PRINTDMP utility to try and trace the cause of the error. The "Input Buffer" section of the Stack Dump (symptom dump) contains the following:
SELECT FK_SUB_PRODUCT_GROUPING, FK_SUB_PRODUCT_NAME FROM RESOLUTION_PRODUCT_SUB_PRODUCT WHERE FK_PRODUCT_CODE=1072 order by FK_SUB_PRODUCT_GROUPING
Is this SQL Statement the cause of the Stack Dump? Does anyone have any other ideas on what may be causing my problem. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I have a very simple piece of code (see below) which when executed sometimes takes around 7 minutes and sometimes around 3.5 hours. the difference is that during the 3.5 hours there is a lot of querying of the table being updated. But I don't know how to find out if this is the case. How can I find out whether my process is waiting (for locks or for any other reason) - is there a trace or debug facility within the tandard Microsoft Toolset which I can use.
Regards
Colin

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi guys,
We have 2 databases: DataBaseSource and DatabaseDestination. We need to truncate all the data in DatabaseDestination and put all the data from DataBaseSource into DatabaseDestination.
What is the best way to do that, we have a lot of data?
And what is the best way if we also need to keep a trace of what happened in case we wanna go back and see what happened.
Also , pls, if we use DTS, is it possible that if someone wants to see what the DTS does, is it possible to read the DTS? I mean if I give a dts to sompeone, a new DBA guy in 2 years for example, how can he know what a certain DTS does? I mean does SQL 2005 put the DTS packaege scripts somewhere or is there a friendly way to know what a DTS dsoes exactly?
Also the trace to see if something went bad is important for us?
Sory if i didn t express myself well enough, and thanks a lot for your help.

Hi,what I am trying to discern is if there is any way of logging SPactivity on a SQL server 2k DB. Ideally I would want to log SP name,parameters, user and time.I found sp_monitor in MSDN but that just gives overall statistics.Not specific enough to aid debugging.Thanks in advance,Finlay Macrae

Hello,I'm currently working on debugging a very large DTS package that wascreated by someone else for the purpose of importing data into mycompany's database. The data is mainly user/contact-related data forour customer base.We ran into problems when one import, of about 40,000 rows, tookupwards of six hours to complete. Many of the stored procedures usedby this package were written using XML. I've re-written many of themusing native SQL to see if that improves the performance, but I'mgetting some errors that I haven't been able to diagnose.Instead of asking about my specific errors, I'd like to know moregenerally what ways are there to debug DTS packages and storedprocedures? I'm aware of, and experienced with SQL Profiler but it'snot giving me the info I need. I need the ability to see exactly whatvalues are being passed to every call to a stored procedure fromwithin the DTS package or another stored procedure.I've used it very successfully to debug .asp, .aspx, .vb and the like,but right now I'm running it while running this huge stored procedurethat is called by the DTS package and does the lion's share of thework, including multiple updates and inserts into about 10 tables.The problem is, I see the calls to the "sub-procedures" from the mainone, but I can't see the values of any of the input or outputparameters. Instead ofInsert_Contact 'John', 'Q', 'Smith', '333-333-3333'......etc.I seeInsert_Contact @FirstName, @Initial, @LastName, @PhoneNumber......etc.My trace includes Stored Procedure events:RPC: CompletedRPC: StartingSP: StartingSP: StmtCompletedSP: StmtStartingand TSQL:Exec Prepared SQLPrepare SQLSQL: BatchCompletedSQL: StmtStartingI figured with these I would've covered the bases but I don't see anyof the parameters, which is critical for my debugging, as some of themare not being properly set.Any ideas or help would be greatly appreciated!TIA,Mike

Hi all--I'm trying to convert a function which I inherited from a SQL Server 2000 DTS package to something usable in an SSIS package in SQL Server 2005. Given the original code here:
Function Main()
on error resume next
dim cn, i, rs, sSQL
Set cn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
cn.Open "Provider=sqloledb;Server=<server_name>;Database=<db_name>;User ID=<sysadmin_user>;Password=<password>"
set rs = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
set rs = DTSGlobalVariables("SQLstring").value
for i = 1 to rs.RecordCount
sSQL = rs.Fields(0).value
cn.Execute sSQL, , 128 'adExecuteNoRecords option for faster execution
rs.MoveNext
Next
Main = DTSTaskExecResult_Success
End Function
This code was originally programmed in the SQL Server ActiveX Task type in a DTS package designed to take an open-ended number of SQL statements generated by another task as input, then execute each SQL statement sequentially. Upon this code's success, move on to the next step. (Of course, there was no additional documentation with this code. :-)
Based on other postings, I attempted to push this code into a Visual Studio BI 2005 Script Task with the following change:
public Sub Main()
...
Dts.TaskResult = Dts.Results.Success
End Class
I get the following error when I attempt to compile this:
Error 30209: Option Strict On requires all variable declarations to have an 'As' clause.
I am new to Visual Basic, so I'm on a learning curve here. From what I know of this script:
- The variables here violate the new Option Strict On requirement in VS 2005 to declare what type of object your variable is supposed to use.
- I need to explicitly declare each object, unless I turn off the Option Strict On (which didn't seem recommended, based on what I read).
Given this statement:
dim cn, i, rs, sSQL
I'm looking at "i" as type Integer; rs and sSQL are open-ended arrays, but can't quite figure out how to read the code here:
Set cn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
cn.Open "Provider=sqloledb;Server=<server_name>;Database=<db_name>;User ID=<sysadmin_user>;Password=<password>"
set rs = CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
This code seems to create an instance of a COM component, then pass provider information and create the recordset being passed in by the previous task, but am not sure whether this syntax is correct for VS 2005 or what data type declaration to make here. Any ideas/help on how to rewrite this code would be greatly appreciated!
Dear Friends,
I am having 2 Tables.
Table 1: AddressBook
Fields --> User Name, Address, CountryCode
Table 2: Country
Fields --> Country Code, Country Name
Step 1 : I have created a Cube with these two tables using SSAS.
Step 2 : I have created a report in SSRS showing Address list.
The Column in the report are User Name, Address, Country Name
But I have no idea, how to convert this Country Code to Country name.
I am generating the report using the Layout tab. ( Data | Layout | Preview ) Report1.rdl [Design]
Anyone help me to solve this issue. Because, in our project most of the transaction tables have Code and Code description in master table. I need to convert all code into corresponding description in all my reports.
Thanks in advance.

Hello,
I'm using ASP.Net to update a table which include a lot of fields may be around 30 fields, I used stored procedure to update these fields. Unfortunatily I had to use a FormView to handle some TextBoxes and RadioButtonLists which are about 30 web controls.
I 've built and tested my stored procedure, and it worked successfully thru the SQL Builder.The problem I faced that I have to define the variable in the stored procedure and define it again the code behind againALTER PROCEDURE dbo.UpdateItems

WHERE (ePRN = @ePRN)
and the code behind which i have to write will be something like thiscmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure;
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@eName", ((TextBox)FormView1.FindControl("TextBox1")).Text);cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ePRN", ((TextBox)FormView1.FindControl("TextBox2")).Text);

cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@eLOC", ((TextBox)FormView1.FindControl("TextBox8")).Text);cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@eTel", ((TextBox)FormView1.FindControl("TextBox9")).Text);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@ePhone", ((TextBox)FormView1.FindControl("TextBox10")).Text);
cmd.Parameters.AddWithValue("@eMobile", ((TextBox)FormView1.FindControl("TextBox11")).Text);
So is there any way to do it better than this way ??
Thank you

Source: Import Datasynapse Data User Events Source [3017]

Our guess is when the data size of User Events table is more it throws this error. If we try to transfer small subset of data it succeeds. What could be reason for this error?
Since this is very urgent, immediate response would be very much appreciated.
