Can A DTS Function Update The Transaction Log


I have an application which uses DTS to import data. After the data is imported the transaction logs are no good since the import wasn't logging.
Is there a way to turn logging on?

Thanks

Update Function: Why SQL Server Update An Empty String With 0?
I'm new to this forum.
This 'problem' has occured many times, but I've always found a way around it.
I have pages with datagrids, in which a user can edit a certain fields and then update the tables with new data. Lets say when a user edit a Name field and a money field. If he/she left those two fields blank, the table is automatically updated with a <null> (for the name field) and a 0 (for the money field.) Both these columns were set up to allow Null values.
Anyone has an idea why they were updated that way? And is there like a standard on how the data types are updated if a field is left blank?
Thank you very much.

Insert Stored Procedure With Error Check And Transaction Function
Hi, guys
I try to add some error check and transaction and rollback function on my insert stored procedure but I have an error "Error converting data type varchar to smalldatatime" if i don't use /*error check*/ code, everything went well and insert a row into contract table.
could you correct my code, if you know what is the problem?

thanks

My contract table DDL:
************************************************** ***

create table contract(
contractNum int identity(1,1) primary key,
contractDate smalldatetime not null,
tuition money not null,
studentId char(4) not null foreign key references student (studentId),
contactId int not null foreign key references contact (contactId)
);


My insert stored procedure is:
************************************************** *****

create proc sp_insert_new_contract
( @contractDate[smalldatetime],
@tuition [money],
@studentId[char](4),
@contactId[int])
as

if not exists (select studentid
from student
where studentid = @studentId)
begin
print 'studentid is not a valid id'
return -1
end

if not exists (select contactId
from contact
where contactId = @contactId)
begin
print 'contactid is not a valid id'
return -1
end
begin transaction

insert into contract
([contractDate],
[tuition],
[studentId],
[contactId])
values
(@contractDate,
@tuition,
@studentId,
@contactId)

/*Error Check */
if @@error !=0 or @@rowcount !=1
begin
rollback transaction
print ‘Insert is failed’
return -1
end
print ’New contract has been added’

Transaction On Update
I have a simple update:


begin transaction
update table1
set column1 = 10
where column2 = 'ABC'
If @@Error > 0 then
rollback transaction
else
commit transaction
print 'show all updated fields'
go


What i want to achieve is if transaction is successful, i would like to see which fields were updated (in form of report or something like following below:

column0 | column1 | column2
---------------------------
1 | 10 | ABC
21 | 10 | ABC
12 | 10 | ABC
251 | 10 | ABC

4 row(s) updated.

There should be a clause like OUTPUT, but don't know how to use it :-(

thank you

How To Update Using A Function
Take a table, where not all the columns are populated:CREATE TABLE #T (A int, B int, C int, D int)INSERT #T (A,B) VALUES (1,2)INSERT #T (A,B) VALUES (3,4)INSERT #T (A,B) VALUES (5,6)INSERT #T (A,B) VALUES (7,8)INSERT #T (A,B) VALUES (9,10)The values for C and D can be computed as functions of A and B. For thisexample, let's say they are twice A and three times B, respectively:CREATE FUNCTION dbo.F(@A int,@B int)RETURNS @Tbl TABLE (X int, Y int)AS BEGININSERT @Tbl (X,Y) VALUES (@A*2, @B*3)RETURNENDNow we use the function to compute the other columns:UPDATE #T SET C=X, D=YFROM dbo.F(A,B)Right? Well, no. Instead, I get this message:Server: Msg 155, Level 15, State 1, Line 2'A' is not a recognized OPTIMIZER LOCK HINTS option.Any suggestions? I would like to use this structure, if possible.Jim GeissmanCountrywide Home Loans

Column Update Function
This is probably a common problem with a standard design pattern, butI'm having trouble finding the solution.I have a table with a lot of columns, for this example I'll just usethree but in reality its more like 20.Create Table myTable (int col_one primary key, int col_two,varchar(20) col_three) etc...I want to write a sproc that allows updating of this column. Say Ihave a sproccreate sproc myUpdate int @col_one, int @col_two, varchar(20)col_threeasupdate myTable col_two = @col_two, col_three = @col_threewhere col_one = @col_onethen if I only want to update col_two I have to pass in the currentvalue of col_three so that it remains the same, which seems prettyinefficient. so I could change it to:asupdate myTable col_two = coalasce(@col_two, col_two), col_three = coalasce(@col_three, col_three)where col_one = @col_oneand then if I wanted to leave col_three the way it is then I couldjust doexec myUpdate 1, 2, NULLthe only problem here is that what if the value of col_three iscurrently 3, and I want to set it to NULL? Under the current method,setting someting to NULL is impossiblefinally, I'd like to use parameter naming in my exec calls. that wayI can just say someting likeexec myUpdate 1, col_three=3this would update col_three to 3 and leave the rest of the fieldsuntouched. you can see how handy this would be if you just want tochange a few of the fields in a table with a large number of columns.I'm sure this has been done before, can somebody point me in the rightdirection?Thanks,Ben

Trigger And Update() Function!
In the SQL 7.0 Documentation is indicated that the UPDATE(<fieldname>), if
used in a isert/update trigger, it return TRUE or FALSE based on presence of <field> in the SET List, if the trigger was fired by an UPDATE operation, or in the list of field to fill, if the trigger was fired by an INSERT operation.

Below there is a piece of code that demostrate the false documentation
assertion in the case of a trigger fired by an INSERT operation, infact even
if i have specified only the FIELD1 in INSERT Statement the trigger Print in the screen that i have touched FIELD2 too.

Now the SP1 don't solve this BUG, even if i had read some month ago (before
that SP1 was out) that in SP1 this will be fixed!

Hi, 
Good morning to all. I'm facing the following problem. Can anyone please help me!...When a transaction is open, the database is getting locked for other user to fetch the records from database.I have to update multiple database table with huge data (Lac). So the transaction will be open for longer period. Mean while if somebody tries to fetch or do select query it give timeout exception. And it does not function until the transaction is closed.How to avoid this database locking for other users. Below is the code that i have used:            using (DbConnection dbconn = base.db.CreateConnection())            {                dbconn.Open();                DbTransaction dbtran = dbconn.BeginTransaction();                try                {                                                     Here inserting, updating to multiple table will be happening
                    dbtran.Commit();                }                catch (SqlException ex)                {                    dbtran.Rollback();                }                finally                {                    dbconn.Close();                }            }

UPDATE Another Table Using Aggregate Function
Here is the example:

I have two tables. One has Projects with the total amt of hours worked on the project itself. The other is an Employee_Projects table with individual rows of hrs per employee worked on the above referenced projects.

I need to SUM all the hrs from the Employee_Projects table and GROUP BY project number, then UPDATE the Projects table with the sum of hours where the Project Number from table A matches the Project Number from table B.

Of course, you cant use an aggregate function in an UPDATE clause, so what would be the easiest way to do this??

Any help would be much appreciated.

Distributed Transaction Coordinator UPDATE Then COMMIT Then ROLLBACK
Hello,
 
I am running the following from New Query in SQL Server 2005 management studio in an SQL Server 2005 instance on a separate machine.
 
I am updating a SQL Server 2000 database on a separate machine.  I execute each statement one at a time.
 


SET XACT_ABORT ON

BEGIN DISTRIBUTED TRANSACTION
 

SELECT @@TRANCOUNT
 

SELECT RIGHT(StudentID,LEN(StudentID)-LEN('TE2_'))

FROM [HQ-A4].TI_excentonlineDD.dbo.Student
 

SELECT * FROM [HQ-A4].TI_excentonlineDD.dbo.Student
 

UPDATE [HQ-A4].TI_excentonlineDD.dbo.Student

SET StudentID = RIGHT(StudentID,LEN(StudentID)-LEN('TE2_'))

WHERE StudentID LIKE 'TE2_%'
 

SELECT * FROM [HQ-A4].TI_excentonlineDD.dbo.Student
 

SELECT @@TRANCOUNT
 

COMMIT TRANSACTION

SET XACT_ABORT OFF
 
The update statement, updates an SQL Server 2000 database.
 
The query will run for 30 seconds.
I test the results with SELECT * FROM [HQ-A4].TI_excentonlineDD.dbo.Student
then COMMIT TRANSACTION.  All is good.
 
After the  COMMIT TRANSACTION,  I check my new expected dataset expected results by SELECT * FROM [HQ-A4].TI_excentonlineDD.dbo.Student. 
 
Next, I open SQL Server 2000 query analyzer (another session (should show only COMMITED data) and connect to the
target SQL Server 2000 database.
 
I run SELECT * FROM TI_excentonlineDD.  I get my new expected dataset expected results.  All is good.
I close Query Analyzer.
 
I close the SQL Server 2005 Management Studio.
 
The weird problem
-------------------------
If I wait 5 minutes or so, open a new New Query or Query Analyzer, then, next, run SELECT * FROM [HQ-A4].TI_excentonlineDD.dbo.Student or run SELECT * FROM  TI_excentonlineDD.dbo.Student, I get back my "old dataset re-appears" (my pre-COMMITED data).  This is bad.
 
I have repeated that same scenaro with both BEGIN DISTRIBUTED TRANSACTION and just BEGIN TRANSACTION
After a while, the "old dataset re-appears" problem still happens.   This is all bad.
 
Is some sort of internal-crash or timeout failure occurring?
Any ideas where I could start looking to resolve this problem?
 
Thanks.

How To Manage Stored Procedure Transaction Involving Update In Several Tables
I am running a vba procedure ( adp file ) that executes successively 5 stored procedures . however it happens that the execution breaks at the middle of the code thus giving a situation where only 2 tables among 5 are updated.

Is it any solution to rollback transactions update already done before
the code breaks due to error ?

I was thinking about combining all stored proc on a big one and use
Begin transaction - commit transaction and rollback transaction ... however i am not sure wheter updates involving several tables can be handled on one transaction.

Any advise highly appreciated !

SQL To Oracle Update Trigger Fails Due To Distributed Transaction Error 7391
Hi,I am having a hard time creating a Trigger to update an Oracledatabase. I am using a SQL Server 2005 Express database on a Win XP ProSP2 desktop, linked to an Oracle 10g database on a remote Windows 2003server. Both machines are on the same domain and very close physically(<1ms ping).I have set up the Oracle linked server in SQLEXPRESS, added thelogin/pw information, and I can execute select and update queriessuccessfully using both four-part naming and OPENQUERY.Here is the actual trigger that I created:USE [AdventureWorks]GOSET ANSI_NULLS ONGOSET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ONGOCREATE TRIGGER [MyTrigger]ON [Person].[Contact]AFTER UPDATEASBEGIN DISTRIBUTED TRANSACTIONSELECT * from oradb..schema.tableWHERE username = 'user'COMMIT TRANHowever, when I update a row in AdventureWorks.Person.Contact, there isa lag of about 2 seconds, and then I receive an error 7391 with thefollowing message: "The operation could not be performed because OLE DBprovider 'MSDAORA' for linked server 'oradb' was unable to begin adistributed transaction."Now, when I remove the "BEGIN DISTRIBUTED TRANSACTION" and "COMMITTRAN" from the trigger, I can update the row without any delay or errormessage.(Don't pay attention to the fact that the triggered action is a SELECTstatement. It also fails with an UPDATE statement, whether or not I use"BEGIN DISTRIBUTED TRANSACTION." I thought using the SELECT statementillustrates the problem more clearly.)If I replace the triggered code with an update to a SQL Server databaseon that same server (even using "BEGIN DISTRIBUTED TRANSACTION"), thenit works correctly. This leads me to believe that MS DTC is configuredproperly on both machines. There is no firewall between the twomachines, and I can Telnet from the desktop to the database server onport 135.I have gone through many MSKB articles (280106, 839279, 329332, 259959,193893, "Troubleshooting Oracle Publishers" from BOL), and archivednewsgroup posts but have been unable to find any resolution for thisproblem. I would appreciate any assistance you may provide.Best regards,George

Error 8525: Distributed Transaction Completed. Either Enlist This Session In A New Transaction Or The NULL Transaction.
Hi All
 
I'm getting this when executing the code below.  Going from W2K/SQL2k SP4 to XP/SQL2k SP4 over a dial-up link.
 
If I take away the begin tran and commit it works, but of course, if one statement fails I want a rollback.  I'm executing this from a Delphi app, but I get the same from Qry Analyser.
 
I've tried both with and without the Set XACT . . ., and also tried with Set Implicit_Transactions off.
 
set XACT_ABORT ON
Begin distributed Tran
update OPENDATASOURCE('SQLOLEDB','Data Source=10.10.10.171;User ID=*****;Password=****').TRANSFERSTN.TSADMIN.TRANSACTIONMAIN
 set REPFLAG = 0 where REPFLAG = 1
update TSADMIN.TRANSACTIONMAIN
 set REPFLAG = 0 where REPFLAG = 1 and DONE = 1
update OPENDATASOURCE('SQLOLEDB','Data Source=10.10.10.171;User ID=*****;Password=****').TRANSFERSTN.TSADMIN.WBENTRY

SSIS, Distributed Transaction Completed. Either Enlist This Session In A New Transaction Or The NULL Transaction.
I have a design a SSIS Package for ETL Process. In my package i have to read the data from the tables and then insert into the another table of same structure.

for reading the data i have write the Dynamic TSQL based on some condition and based on that it is using 25 different function to populate the data into different 25 column. Tsql returning correct data and is working fine in Enterprise manager. But in my SSIS package it show me time out ERROR.

I have increase and decrease the time to catch the error but it is still there i have tried to set 0 for commandout Properties.

if i'm using the 0 for commandtime out then i'm getting the Distributed transaction completed. Either enlist this session in a new transaction or the NULL transaction.

and

Failed to open a fastload rowset for "[dbo].[P@@#$%$%%%]". Check that the object exists in the database.

Please help me it's very urgent.

Distributed Transaction Completed. Either Enlist This Session In A New Transaction Or The NULL Transaction.
Hi all, I've already read the thread by the same topic, but I found Kevin Yu's comment a bit confusing.  I don't know how to solve my problem.  I have two stored procedures in sql server.  First one inserts into a bunch of tables so it has Begin Transaction and Commit in it.  Second one just inserts into one table so it doesn't have the begin transaction statement in it. From my data access class in c#.net, I have a function which calls both of these stored procedures from within a "using transactionscope" block.  So when it makes the call to the first stored procedure, it returns fine, but when it calls the second one, I get the above error.   I think it has something to do with me declaring transactionscope in my application code, and then calling a stored procedure which also has its own begin transaction.  But I don't know how to fix this.  Any ideas? Thanks

Distributed Transaction Completed. Either Enlist This Session In A New Transaction Or The NULL Transaction
I'm using TransactionScope object and it is giving me problems. The situation is like this.
I've 2 tables in sql server express, say student and courses and other one studentcourse for courses a student has opted for.
An aspx page displays list of users in listbox, when user chooses student, it fetches courses he has opted for and in the checkedlistbox (for courses) these courses are checked. Now when uses makes any changes to courses and clicks update button, i've
two functions at backend first one removes the courses which were previously selected but now not selected in postback, next it inserts courses which was not selected first but now are in this postback.
I use following code:

protected void Update(object sender, EventArgs e)
{
/*
get selections, existing courses etc.
*/
using(TransactionScope tscope=new TransactionScope())
{
try
{
RemoveCourses(/*Student*/ s, /*IList*/ oldCourses, /*IList*/ newCourses);
AddCourses(/*Student*/ s, /*IList*/ oldCourses, /*IList*/ newCourses);
tscope.Complete();
}
catch(Exception ex)
{
lblMessage.Text=ex.Message;
}
}
}

If any exception occurs during update and page is reload or I go to any other page where some data is fetched from sql server I get the exception:
Distributed transaction completed. Either enlist this session in a new transaction or the NULL transaction

Please help!

Default Date(current Date) Function W/ Update?
I have a reference table that currently has no web front-end. It's a small table(<10 rows) that's not going to change very often (maybe once every few months).

We manually update rows on the table via the GUI table interface in Enterprise Mgr., not in T-SQL.

What I'd like to do is have SQL Server automatically update the "Last_Modified" column with the current timestamp. I can do it on an Insert using the GetDate() function, but if I update a row, this doesn't work.

Is there a function I can use that can auto-populate for both insert and updates?

TRANSACTIONS In SSIS (error: The ROLLBACK TRANSACTION Request Has No Corresponding BEGIN TRANSACTION.&&"
I'm receiving the below error when trying to implement Execute SQL Task.

"The ROLLBACK TRANSACTION request has no corresponding BEGIN TRANSACTION." This error also happens on COMMIT as well and there is a preceding Execute SQL Task with BEGIN TRANSACTION tranname WITH MARK 'tran'

I know I can change the transaction option property from "supported" to "required" however I want to mark the transaction. I was copying the way Import/Export Wizard does it however I'm unable to figure out why it works and why mine doesn't work.

Anyone know of the reason?

Unable To Shrink Transaction Log Under Transaction Replication With Sync With Backup Enabled On Distribution Db?
We have applied transaction replication servers with SQLServer2005 standard edition with SP1 running on them. Sync with backup is also enabled on distribution db. Now our transaction log is not shrinking using standard shrinking procedure(taking log backup with truncate option/shrinkfile).

select name,log_reuse_wait, log_reuse_wait_desc from sys.databases

it is showing  dbname, 6, Replication respectively.
 

declare @db int

 

set @db=db_id('dbname')

dbcc loginfo(@db)
 

is showing 2 in status column.
tried shrinking transaction file after removing sync with backup option from distribution db. still it failed. again tried shrinking after stopping log reader, it didn't worked.

Problem With SSIS Transaction...Transaction Scope
 

Hi,

I am having some problem with SSIS transaction. Eventhought I tried to imitate the concept that Jamie presented at http://www.sqlservercentral.com/columnists/jthomson/transactionsinsqlserver2005integrationservices.asp

. My workflow is as followed

*********************************
For Each ADO.Record in Oracle (transaction=not supported)

If (Certain_Field_Value = 'A')


Lookup Data in SQL DB with values from Oracle (transaction=not supported)

DO Sequence A (Start a Transaction , transaction=required)


INSERT/UPDATE some records in SQLDB(transaction=supported)
Finish Sequence A ( transaction should stop here)
UPDATE Oracle DB ( Execute SQLTask, transaction=not supported)
If (Certain_Field_Value = 'B')


Lookup Data in SQL DB with values from Oracle (transaction=not supported)

DO Sequence B (Start a Transaction , transaction = required)


INSERT/UPDATE some records in SQLDB (transaction=supported)
Finish Sequence A ( transaction should stop here)
UPDATE Oracle DB ( Execute SQLTask, transaction=not supported)
If (Certain_Field_Value = 'C')

------------
------------
End ForEach Loop
*************************************
My requirements are that I want separate transaction for each Sequence A, B, C, etc... If Sequence A transaction fails, the other should still be continuing with another transaction.
But I am getting an error regarding the OLEDB Error in next Task (e.g in Certain_Field_Value = 'B') "Lookup Data in SQL DB with values from Oracle ", the error message is  ".......Distributed transaction completed. Either enlist this session in a new transaction or the NULL transaction. ".
What is it that I am doing wrong?
Regards
KyawAM
