ErrorLog Size Limit

Sep 6, 2006

Hi.



I have a service on a server which contains Sql Server Express.

this service adds documents to the database to allow full text search features.

From some reason, the index crashes and than it writes to the ErrorLog file, the errorlog jumps to 20GB(!) causing the server to crash.

How can :

1. limit the size of the error log.

2. find out why the log jumps to this size (I can't open the error log file ofcourse...)



Thanks!

Writing Errorlog To Sql Errorlog Problem

Jun 14, 2001

Hello all,

I don't know what I am doing wrong.
In my environment, we have monitoring tool that scan through sql errorlog
every 10minutes to capture some error that occurs.
I have been trying for days now to create an alert for any of our failed
backup to appear in the sql errorlog with the code below. After I add
message to the sysmessage table with sp_addmessage, and raising the error
with log option, I modified the existing scheduled backup job by creating
an alert with the num in the code.
For some reason, this error will not just show up in the sql errorlog when
it failed.
Has anyone any advise on what to do?

The code is:

sp_addmessage 50001, 25, 'Backup Failed for the '%.*ls' database.Please Contact MSSQL DBA Immediately!!!! '
GO
DECLARE @DBID INT
SET @DBID = DB_ID()
DECLARE @DBNAME NVARCHAR(128)
SET @DBNAME = DB_NAME()
RAISERROR (50001, 25, 1, @DBID, @DBNAME) with log
GO
Thanks
SA

SQL Parameter Size Limit?...

May 28, 2008

Hey all --


Does anyone know if a sprocs parameter has a size limit? For example if you're passing in a XML document to a sproc - could that call fail based upon the size of the XML document? Consider memory a non-issue.

Is There A Size Limit To This Cause Im Getting An Error That I Cant Figure Out

Mar 14, 2006

I create an sql string as so, add parameters to it and execute it:
string cmdstr = "INSERT INTO locations(id1, id2, companyname, address, city, province, postalcode, phonenumber, faxnumber, contact, contactemail) VALUES (@id1,@id2,@companyname,@address,@city,@province,@postalcode,@phonenumber,@faxnumber,@contact,@contactemail)";
SqlCommand sqlCmd = GetCommandSQL(cmdstr);
sqlCmd.CommandTimeout = TimeOut;
sqlCmd.Parameters.Add("@id1", SqlDbType.Int).Value = itID;
sqlCmd.Parameters.Add("@id2", SqlDbType.Int).Value = Convert.ToInt32(ddlDPCLocation.SelectedValue);
sqlCmd.Parameters.Add("@companyname", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = ((TextBox)dvShippingInformation.FindControl("tbCompanyName")).Text;
sqlCmd.Parameters.Add("@address", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = ((TextBox)dvShippingInformation.FindControl("tbAddress")).Text;
sqlCmd.Parameters.Add("@city", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = ((TextBox)dvShippingInformation.FindControl("tbCity")).Text;

sqlCmd.Parameters.Add("@contactemail", SqlDbType.VarChar).Value = ((TextBox)dvShippingInformation.FindControl("tbContactEmail")).Text;
sqlCmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
for testing purposes ive added the max text in each textbox area, so each textbox has 50 characters or so
and i get an error message as follows, when executing the query:

Anybody have any ideas why this is happening

SqlCeReplication.HostName Size Limit Fix?

Jul 17, 2006

We are attempting to improve our merge replication process between our SQL Server 2005 server and SqlCe Mobile 3 client by switching to Data Partitions. We are using IIS as a proxy to SQL Server 2005 running on a different box using a DOMAIN account.

We've setup row filters to use HOST_NAME() and have set the option "Automatically define a partition and generate a snapshot if needed when a new Subscriber tries to synchronize" to true in the Data Partitions options under the publication's properties in SQL server management studio.

If I use a .HostName value of "1234", everything works fine. A subdirectory is created under a our publication's folder in the shared replication directory that relates to the host_name. Data is copied to the device and can be observed through query analyzer that the data is in fact filtered properly.

However, when using a .HostName based on the GetDeviceUniqueID (which results in '3D321F7212B2AD2CC824954662B9023441BB2D20'), replication works sometimes and sometimes fails with "The merge process was unable to deliver the snapshot to the Subscriber. If using Web synchronization, the merge process may have ben unable to create or write to the message file. [etc]". The final HRESULT is 80045017.

While this error indicates a permission problem, there were no permission problems when creating the "1234" partition. In researching the problem, I ran across KB905395 which states:
Limitations on the HostName property and the Subscriber-requested snapshotIf you try to initialize a SQL Server Mobile Edition subscription by using a filtered HostName property, initialization fails. This problem occurs when the value that is supplied for the HostName
property contains more than 12 characters. To work around this problem,
disable Subscriber-requested snapshot delivery at the Publisher. You
can also use a value for the HostName property that contains fewer than 12 characters.

====

This seems to be consistent with what we've observed (which actually led to the "1234" test). Does anyone know if a fix for this exists? Has anyone else run across this issue? I saw a previous post from March that did, but never got resolved. However, the KB article above was posted in March - hmmm...

This is an existing application and filtering based on the device's id is ingrained in the application. Changing it now would be large undertaking.

At The End Of My Rope! Sql 6.5 On NT Type Size 255 Char Limit

Mar 27, 1999

I am so frustrated, I have upsized a data base from access to sql 6.5 and now had to clip data to fit into a 255 field? I have been looking for weeks to find a solution for this.

I am writing a discussion board very much like this one and need the message text to hold more than 255 chars. I have tried to create a table with a blob and text, The text will not allow me to specify the size when creating from a script (ASP) using create table. If I dont specify a size, it creates it as 16?

Been working on this for several weeks and cannot locate anyone that can answer this question, I want to create a column that will hold more than 255 chars.

IS there something in Sql 6.5 that I need to set to allow more than 255 on a text field? What am I doing wrong?

Please respond. Thank you.
Mike

SQL Server 2000 Standard .. DB Size Limit

Dec 29, 2003

Hi all.

On the MS website (at this URL: http://www.microsoft.com/sql/evaluation/overview/default.asp) it says that the Standard edition of SQL Server 2000 has a database size limit of 1,048,516 terabytes.

Talking to a friend, he tells me this is not true, and that it has a database size limit of 12gb.

Is Microsofts site incorrect, or is my friend lost?

Cheers! :-)

File Size Limit / Offline Cache

Sep 26, 2006

Hi,

I have 2 questions:

Is there any way of getting around the 128MB file size limit when creating and adding SSEv databases to VS2005? Currently I get the following error when trying to connect to a database:"The database file is larger than the configured maximum database size. This setting takes effect on the first concurrent database connection only...". This after I altered the app.config file to "...Max Database Size=600;..."
Have anyone tried to use SSEv to cache data with the use of the Smart Application Offline Building Block? Is there a provider I can use for doing this?

Thanks in advance!

Limit File Size Of Subscription Reports

Mar 27, 2008



I have a report subscription this is generating PDF files. The end user of the PDF files requires these files to be below a certain threshold in file size. Is there any way to set up a subscription to generate files that are under the threshold size?

If I knew approximately how many records would generate a report below the threshold, is there a way to generate several reports all of which are below the threshold?
Thanks.

Exceeding SQL 2005 Express' 4GB Databse Size Limit...

Sep 5, 2006

Okay, I know the maximum size limit on a database in SQL 2005 Express is 4GB, but what happens when you exceed that limit? I can't seem to find much info on that topic. What kind of error return would you get from a stored procedure attempting to do an insert that will exceed the 4GB limitation? Also what factors go into that maximum size, factors that might not be completely obvious of course?

We now have varchar(max), varbinary(max) and XML data types that are unlimited in size, byt UDT's are limited to 8000 bytes!.

This limitation is ruining a key project of mine!

Any ideas that MS may lift this limit?

Size Limit For Dataset Query In Report Designer

Sep 16, 2007

I was working on the SSRS Report Designer and was trying to copy and paste a huge SQL query from SQL Management Studio (like I always do) to the dataset window.

This method usually works, but for this extremely long SQL query with nested SELECTs and JOINs, it seems as though the Report Designer dataset query window limits the number of characters including carriage returns I can input in it.

When I paste my SQL query from SQL Management Studio, it seems to paste only three quarters of the query, and thereafter I am not able to manually key in anything else or even make a line feed in the dataset query window.

Is there a limit to the number of characters I can key in here ? If so, is there any workarounds or configurations I can try ?

Do Stored Procedures Have A Limit On Number Of Parameters Or Byte Size Passed In?

Hi,I'm using c# with a tableadapter to call stored procedures. I'm running into a problem where if I have over a certain byte size or number of parameters being passed into my stored proc I get an exception that reads: "Cannot evaluate expression because a thread is stopped at a point where garbage collection is impossible, possibly because the code is optimized." If I remove one parameter, the problem goes away. Has anyone run into this before? Thanks,Mark

VERY Wide Rows, 8060 Bytes Row Size Limit && SPARSE Columns

Apr 23, 2008

Hi,
I€™m trying to create a VERY wide table, with 1,000 columns of type varchar(MAX), nullable.
The CREATE TABLE statement (both in SQL 2005 & 2008), gives the following warning:


Warning: The table "WIDE_TABLE" has been created, but its maximum row size exceeds the allowed maximum of 8060 bytes. INSERT or UPDATE to this table will fail if the resulting row exceeds the size limit.

When I insert data into the table, filling all columns with small, 10-byte string values, I get the following error:

Msg 50000, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_pivot, Line 118

Cannot create a row of size 15034 which is greater than the allowable maximum of 8060.

I€™d like to verify this observation: each row is created with 2000 bytes of offset data (2 byte * 1000 columns), 125 bytes for null bitmap (1000 columns / 8 bits) and some more €śwasted€? row information. This leaves less than 6K for the data itself. But since not all columns can fit within the page, forwarding pointers in the row need to be created, 24 byte per column, which very quickly add up to more than 8K, thus the error. So the 8K limit is met for much less columns than the max 1024 column restriction.

Furthermore, in SQL 2008, SPARSE columns will not solve the problem (maybe save some €śmetadata€? space in case the columns are null, but if not, I€™m with the same problem again, or even worse, since now each value takes more storage space. The max 30,000 columns in 2008 is only for cases where the column values are really sparse€¦

Is this the right observation? if so, is there a workaround besides splitting to multiple tables?

Thanks,

Aviv.

ErrorLog Is Your Friend!

Dec 22, 2005

I just spent the better part of a full day trying to figure out why my MSSQLSERVER service wouldn't start.  Finally, after someone suggested I check out "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server[Instance Name]LogErrorLog" I found my problem.  I opened it up to find: (newbie mistake, I know now!!)

2005-12-21    19:27:46.60    server              SQL Server evaluation period has expired

So I thought I would pass this onto everyone I can think of so you will not make the mistake I just did. 

It would have been nice if Microsoft, like just about every other software company out there, would have been loud & obnoxious about their trial software expiring.  Instead they have to put a poor newbie soul thru what I just went thru.

*sigh*

Well if I helped 1 person with this, I've done some good!
