I have everything set up with SQL Server 2000 and Outlook 2000 and the
procedure works fine but the message sits in my inbox. When it open
the e-mail it says this message has not been sent. I just click send
and the e-mail sends. Is there any reason I have to manually sent the
e-mail after the xp_sendmail procedure works and should send the
e-mail itself.
Thanks

PLZ HELP!!!!!!
Created a SP that uses system function XP_SENDMAIL. I wantto be able to send a HYPERLINK in the email. TheHYPERLINK is created dynamically and generally long in length (exceedsdefault width of 80 characters) and when rendered in the email is splitacross 2 lines. The problem is that when you click on the link itdisregards the part of the link that has been split onto the linebelow.Does anyone know a solution to this - how to extend the width of theemail to wider that 80 characters so that the link is not split over 2lines? I know that you can use the @width parameter when placing themessage in an attatchment, however I want the link to be placed in thebody of the email and not in an attachment.Any help is much appreciated..
View 2 Replies View RelatedBooks Online gives a way to send a message larger than the VARCHAR max of 8000 chars, but the @query argument to xp_sendmail is a simple text string and my data is much more complex, and formatted. Also BOL shows an example using a temporary text file, but it is not clear precisely how you write your insert statements. I tried the following, which writes out all the data and sends it ok except, after each row, there is about a page of blank spaces. What is wrong with my syntax?

I have define an "execute SQL task" followed by an "Send Email Task" :

I want to include the package name that is being executed in the message body of the email, How can i do this ?
I have tried to set an output parameter with Variable Name "System:ackageName", but i get the message :
Variable "System:ackageName" cannot be used as an out parameter or return value in a parameter or return value in parameter ....
Can anyone outline some best practices for sending the same message out to multiple servers? What is the easiest way to do this?
Currently, I have a message sent from Server A to Server B, which is fired by a table insert, update, delete trigger.
The goal is to keep this table synchronized on many remote servers. It sounds like a tedious exercise to deploy the SSB messages, queues, services, etc to 20+ more sites! I am hoping there is a shortcut of some kind.
Any advice is appreciated.
I have a need to asynchronously send a short message to an application over
tcp/ip after the user makes a selection from a web browser.
We are developing a reservation system where the availability to users in
close physical proximity is indicated by lights at a kiosk. We want the user
to be able to make a reservation from a web browser over the internet, (which
checks the sql server db for availibility), and when the reservation is made,
the appropriate lights at the kiosk indicate it is unavailable.
I can think of three choices, but am unsure which is best:
1. Poll the server to look for the event. I don't like this since the
application will be connected over a dial up internet connection, and I want
to keep traffic to a minimum, although this seems the easiest to build.
2. Have the users web browser be redirected to the application's ip address
directly. Here I am not sure which message protocol to use. The kiosk
application will be a .net 2.0 windows form app, but not running on a server
per se, but windows xp pro.
3. Have the database relay a message to the kiosk. I like this way the best,
since the user does not need to know the ip address of the kiosk, and the
kiosk does not need to be open from all ip addresses for security reasons. I
am not which way to do this either. I have read a little about hosting web
services using http.sys, but we probably want a shared hosting plan due to
costs at this point, and they are restrictive about turning on the clr inside
the db. Is there a different way to send a short message?
I apologize in advance if this is the wrong forum.
Hi Remus
What if I need multiple clients to read (RECEIVE) the same message?
Would it be possible?

Hello,
I want to know the exact flow of events when I use this statement:
BEGIN DIALOG CONVERSATION @dialog_handle
FROM SERVICE [SERVICE1]
TO SERVICE 'SERVICE2'
ON CONTRACT [MainContract]
Assuming that I have defined SERVICE1 for Queue1 in the initiator ,
and I have defined SERVICE2 for queue2 on the target.
Is this the flow:
1.Message first goes to the queue1
or
it directly goes to the SERVICE2 on target end point which in turn puts this message in Queue2 on the target?
2. target queue then activates the stored procedure which is connected to queue2 (let's say the procedure name is 'Processqueue2')
3.I noticed that even when none of the item comes in the queue, still when u use "ALTER QUEUE queue2 WITH STATUS = ON", that time also the 'processqueue2' is called.
4.'processqueue2' then fetch message from queue2 and process this. optionally it can send the acknowledgement message to the initiator or just send the end dialog message.
5.if i dont want 'processqueue2' to send the acknowledgement then
can I can directly send the End dialog from the inititor it self i.e. the end dialog just after sending the message.
BEGIN DIALOG CONVERSATION @dialog_handle
FROM SERVICE [SERVICE1]
TO SERVICE 'SERVICE2'
ON CONTRACT [MainContract]
SEND ON CONVERSATION @dialog_handle
MESSAGE TYPE SendMessageType ('hello from intiator')
END CONVERSATION @dialog
In this case why do i need queue1 at all?
my assumption here is that my communication is one way and i don't need the ACK from the target.
Thanks,
i have developed a pakage which populates a two different tables with reference to the xml files added to a folder which is watched by a security WMI task.it is governed by a sequence container which contains three for each loop container for working on the different files.i have different event handlers set up inside for each loop container tasks which contains , data flow task, execute sql task, and moving the processed file to the desired destination.i want to set up a send mail task on the package level using event handler on error, where i have set up a task for looging the error to the error table , i have tried to collect all the error messages in a array list variable . and trying to use that variable a s a message source. i could not under stand if i set the propogation variable in the sequence container as false than will the onpost execute event will fire the onpostexecute event handler in the package level.if show how can i send only one email for all the errors of package with error looging.

I set up the "Send Email Task" succesfully with "SMTP Connection to myExchangeSERVER" using "Windows Authentication"
However, as we all know - you can't have html format for the Send Mail Task. BUT this piece of code straight from MSDN doesnt work for me - each time it pops up this "Mail Sent Succesfully" - but I receive NO freaking EMAILs!!! Am I missing something or is it another one of those Microsoft "gotchas" ?

I have been using the ServiceBrokerInterface example for a project of mine and so far it has been very successfull. However , I recently attempted to use it to send a large-ish message (32K xml file from MS Word) to SQL. The message is recieved but the Body member of the message is null when I try to retrieve the data from within my stored procedure CLR method.
The only differences I can see between the message that does not work and those that do are that the one that doesn't is large and it is XML data that I read from a .xml file produced by MS Word as opposed to internally generated strings in the other working messages.
Does anybody have any suggestions as to why the body of the message is not being sent in this case?
Is there something about the example code that precludes sending this type of message?
This is the code that sends the message (extracted from Conversation.cs in ServiceBrokerExample)
string query = "SEND ON CONVERSATION @ch MESSAGE TYPE @mt ";
param = cmd.Parameters.Add("@ch", SqlDbType.UniqueIdentifier);
param.Value = m_handle;
param = cmd.Parameters.Add("@mt", SqlDbType.NVarChar, 255);
param.Value = message.Type;
if (message.Body != null)
{
query += " (@msg)";
param = cmd.Parameters.Add("@msg", SqlDbType.VarBinary);
param.Value = new SqlBytes(message.Body);
param.Size = -1;
}
cmd.CommandText = query;
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
This is the code that reads the message from the SQL queue (extracted from Message.cs in ServiceBrokerExample)
m_reader = reader;
m_convGroupId = reader.GetGuid(0);
m_conv = new Conversation(service, reader.GetGuid(1));
m_sequenceNumber = reader.GetInt64(2);
m_serviceName = reader.GetString(3);
m_contractName = reader.GetString(4);
m_type = reader.GetString(5);
m_validation = reader.GetString(6);
if (!reader.IsDBNull(7))
{
SqlBytes sb = reader.GetSqlBytes(7);
Body = sb.Stream;
}
else
Body = null;
This is the MESSAGE TYPE used by this message.
CREATE MESSAGE TYPE CreateReport_Command VALIDATION = None;
Here is the code where msgReceived.Body == null in the SQL CLR method invoked by this message.
[System.Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessage("Microsoft.Design", "CA1062:ValidateArgumentsOfPublicMethods"), System.Diagnostics.CodeAnalysis.SuppressMessage("Microsoft.Performance", "CA1822:MarkMembersAsStatic"), BrokerMethod("AssessmentContract", "CreateReport_Command")]
public void CreateReport_Command(
Message msgReceived,
SqlConnection connection,
SqlTransaction transaction)
{
StreamReader reader = null;
try
{
reader = new StreamReader(msgReceived.Body);
And finally here is the code snippet that creates the stream that gets loaded into the message to be sent.
if (Report != null && ReportName != null)
{
MemoryStream ReportBody = new MemoryStream();
if (ReportID == null)
{
ReportID = Guid.NewGuid().ToString();
}
ReportBody.Write(Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(ReportID), 0, ReportID.Length);
ReportBody.Write(Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("|".ToCharArray()), 0, 1);
ReportBody.Write(Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(ReportName), 0, ReportName.Length);
ReportBody.Write(Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes("|".ToCharArray()), 0, 1);
ReportBody.Write(Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(Report), 0, Report.Length);
Microsoft.Samples.SqlServer.Message request = new Microsoft.Samples.SqlServer.Message("CreateAssessmentReport_Command", ReportBody);
// Send the message to the service
dialog.Send(request, conn, tran);
In my SQL Server, I see the below message in the Application Event Viewer
"18265 :
Log backed up: Database: HSD, creation date(time): 2007/01/06(05:05:05), first LSN: 1439:495055:1, last LSN: 1439:496675:1, number of dump devices: 1, device information: (FILE=1, TYPE=DISK: {'D:MSSQLBACKUPHSDHSD_tlog_200707141300.TRN'})."
When I save the application event viewer and open it in another server, I do not see the above message, instead I get the following message:
" Can't find or load message DLL. Message DLL must be in path or in current directory."
Any thoughts to overcome this problem is appreciated.

I run SB between 2 SQL servers. In profiler on an initiator side I see next error: 'This message could not be delivered because its message timestamp has expired or is invalid'. For the conversation we use best practice, i.e. target closes a conversation. Target side succeed to close conversation, but initiator still stay in DO (disconnect_outbound).
What is a reasone for the error? What to do?
I see in profiler this error: "This message could not be delivered because its message timestamp has expired or is invalid"
What is a reason for error?
Hello,
I am having trouble specifying a message body that is valid. I mean for the client to send. If I leave it as null then everything is ok but if I create a memorystream and add a line of text it reports back it did not pass validation. I do not understand this and am not sure what to do. I need to send a message based on a code and text but do not know the format of the body that is allowed. The code I am refering to comes out of HelloWord_CLR because that is what I am formating my sample after. I call it the same way it calls the return message done in ServiceProc. I need to know the message format including body since this does not seem to work. A sample of the call is bellow.
// Create an empty request message
string Msg = "Hello";
MemoryStream body = new MemoryStream(Encoding.ASCII.GetBytes(Msg));
Message request = new Message("Request", body);

Hi,
I am using xp_sendmail in a stored procedure.I need to update the fields after the mail sent. Is there a way to capture the errors or server messages that occurs. I am using the following code.....

execute master.dbo.xp_sendmail @recipients='lakshmip@oasisnetwork.com', @message='Leads Information',@query=@myquery
Select @send_Mail=@@Error
If @send_Mail=0
Begin
update MasterleadPool/*Updates the MasterleadPool table once the mail sent */
Set EmailSent='Y', Dateout=getdate()
where AssToID=@AssToID and EmailSent='N' and AssToFlag='Y'
End
I used @@error to capture the error but it does'nt work. I got server message as follows.... So the problem is it should'nt go to update statement if there is any type of errors in sending a mail..
Server: Msg 17903, Level 18, State 1, Line 0
MAPI login failure.
(1 row(s) affected)
Please help me if anyone knows....

EXEC master..xp_sendmail
@recipients = @EMAIL_ADDRESS_LNK,

However in doing this, it never works (go figure or I wouldn't be submitting this). I have defined the variable @EMAIL_ADDRESS_LNK appropriately to reference a field in a table and I'm positive that the value in the field is valid.
What am I missing? If this is not possible, is there a workaround. Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.
