hi, I have settup up sql mail and did the following: 1. created an E-mail account and configured Out look by creating a pop3 mail profile. tested it by sending and receiving mail, that is ook 2. I Created one domain account for MSsqlserver and Sql Agent service. both services use same account and start automatically in the control panel-services 3. I used the profile that I created in outlook to test the sql mail but got an error: Error 22030 : A MAPI error ( error number:273) occurred: MapiLogon Ex Failed due to MAPI Error 273: MAPI Logon Failed
I really do not know what went wrong. I followed the steps from bol and still having a problem. Am I missing something.
I do have a valid email account I do have a valid domain account I tested outlook using the email account and it worked. so why sql server does not recognise MAPI.
My next question, How to configure MAPI in Sql server if what I did was wrong.

Hello, I am facing a huge problem in my sql server database using access as a front end.The main problem is trying to execute queries "views" ,since they reside on sql server now,and using variables or parameters in reports and forms to filter on this query. Ex. how can the following be implemented using the same query but in sql server? Access ------ SELECT MAT_Charts.YYYYMM FROM MAT_Charts WHERE ((([Area_Code] & "-" & [GROUP_CODE])=[Reports]![MAT_Chart_C1].[MAT_Key])) GROUP BY MAT_Charts.YYYYMM;
It is specifically this statement in which I am interested: [GROUP_CODE])=[Reports]![MAT_Chart_C1].[MAT_Key]))

hi everybody My requirement is, I have to transfer database backup files from one server to another server to take tape backup. Generally in my backup folder there will be 4days backups. I want to schedule a job so that after database backed up, today’s backup file only copied to the other server. I wrote following code, upto xp_cmdshell every thing is working fine. But xp_cmdshell statement is giving error. I have to use variable value with sp_cmdshell. Please give me the solution for this.

I am trying to run a Visual Basic Script using the xp_cmdshell stored procedure. When I try to run the file, the MS Script Debugger application is started.
I run the script like this: "xp_cmdshell 'D:ScriptFilesSpaceMail.vbs'"
I can run it from the DOS prompt successfully, but not from Query Analyzer. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to prevent the MS Script Debugger from running?

SQL 7.0 I have given a non sa user permissions to run xp_cmdshell via his NT logon. When he runs it and does a "dir" of the server it works. When he trys to do a "dir" of his own machine it comes up with "Logon failure unknown user name or bad password". SQL Agent is running under a domain admin account. I have placed SQLAgentCmdExec in the servers local administrators group. I have de-selected the option from SQLAgent propertiesJob System which restricts non sa users executing CmdExec stuff. I did attempt to Reset Proxy Account and Reset Proxy Password. When I clicked on these it just gave me message that the account and password had successfully been reset without asking me for username, password or domain.
Hello, friends, This is probably not a question for DBA forum, but may be someone knows the answer. In the stored procedure I'm using xp_cmdshell command to copy file from one dir to another. How I can receive any indication what the process succeded? xp_cmdshell return 1 or 0 if the stored procedure was invoked, I would like to receive an indication that the file was copied.
I tried to use the external procddure - xp_cmdshell - to copy a file from a local drive to a network drive, but failed. Yet the attempt succeeded if I tried to copy a file from one place to another in local drive.
It seems that SQL Server 6.5/7.0 did not recognize any network drive. I greatly appreciate your help/assistance and/or any hint(s). Thanks a lot

I've recently installed SQL Server 2005 and now trying to enable xp_cmdshell through SQL Server 2005 Surface Area Configuration. However, I am getting the following error:
User does not have permission to perform this action. You do not have permission to run the RECONFIGURE statement.
When xp_cmdshell interacts with FTP it doesn't log the FTP return codes.
History: I found Nigel Rivett's T-SQL FTP scripts http://www.nigelrivett.net/ and concatenated them together with some modifications so I could have a process that actually errors when an FTP fails.
The process FTP's a file, disconnects, and then reconnects to do a dir and then select from the returned listing to see if the file name exists.
I wanted to review the initial log from the put and check for a valid FTP return code of 250 that says "Transfer completed successfully"
Log Snippets:
A normal FTP log shows: ftp> put foo 'mainframe.node.structure.foo' 200 Port request OK. 125 Storing data set MAINFRAME.NODE.STRUCTURE.FOO 250 Transfer completed successfully. ftp: 7972888 bytes sent in 99.63Seconds 80.03Kbytes/sec. ftp> quit 221 Quit command received. Goodbye.
xp_cmdshell log shows (with FTP debug on) shows: 7 put foo 'mainframe.node.structure.foo' 8 PORT 10,99,11,16,7,30 9 ---> STOR MAINFRAME.NODE.STRUCTURE.FOO 10 ---> quit 11 QUIT 12 (null)
As you can see, the return codes and some other messages are missing.
I've messed around with various options and can't seem to get any return codes in the log at all.
I need to kill some user session that i get from below query output
xp_cmdshell 'netstat -an | find /i "est"'
output: -
TCP 0.0.0.47:1099 0.0.0.39:139 ESTABLISHED TCP 0.0.0.47:1433 0.0.0.104:2961 ESTABLISHED TCP 0.0.0.47:1433 0.0.0.104:3012 ESTABLISHED TCP 0.0.0.47:1433 0.0.0.39:2915 ESTABLISHED TCP 0.0.0.47:1433 0.0.0.39:3106 ESTABLISHED TCP 0.0.0.47:2007 0.0.0.26:1487 ESTABLISHED TCP 0.0.0.47:2007 0.0.0.79:1139 ESTABLISHED
do we have any command to kill the connected session to my sql except kill spid.
ex: i want to kill the session of IP 0.0.0.79 from my sql server.
