Tablediff Utility Bug?!?

Aug 14, 2006

In my transactional push replication I had differences, which were reported correctly by the utility tbalediff.

I created with the tablediff utility all necessary statements to correct them.

Afterwards I ran tablediff again to check if everything is ok.

It wasn't, I got a lot of mismatches.



The reason for those mismatches are columns from type "float". It looks like that float values are not generated correctly in insert statements. We had differences in the values and from that point on we have mismatches.



Does anyone has an idea how to get rid of those reported mismatches?!?!

I will report this also as a bug.

Regards

Norbert

Tablediff Utility For SQL Server 2000?

Dec 18, 2006

Does anyone know if there is a utility available in SQL Server 2000 equivalent to the Tablediff utility in 2005? While reinitializing a Subscriber, I got the error "The row was not found at the Subscriber when applying the replicated command." I would like to identify the location of the data to fix at the Subscriber. In the interim, I changed the Distribution agent from the default to "Continue replication on data consistency errors," which successfully replicated changes, except for the errors. Is the stored procedure sp_publication_validation the only option for SQL Server 2000? This ran successfully after the replicated changes were processed.

Tablediff Utility Without 'delete' Command.

Apr 23, 2008



I am presently using 'tablediff' utility of SQLServer 2005 to compare tables located on two different servers. My real intension is to backup data from Serv1 to Serv2, except that I wish to update the tables on server2 with only newly inserted rows and updated rows and NOT deleted rows.

In short, I want the final .sql file generated by the tablediff utility to contain only 'Insert' and 'Update' statements and NOT 'Delete' statements.

I hope someone can help me in this regard.

Thank you,
Little_Birdie.

Tablediff Bug?

Sep 12, 2006

Hey,

I recognized a strange behaviour when using tablediff. Because I don't want to replicate all columns, I create two views on selected attributes and compare them.

Have two tables:
create table t1 (timestamp timestamp, b int PRIMARY KEY, c varchar(30))create table t2 (b int PRIMARY KEY, c varchar(30))

and two views:
create view vt1 as select b, c from t1 create view vt2 as select b, c from t2

Compare the views with tablediff and get a failure:
... vt1 and vt2 ... have different schemas and cannot be compared.

Now I just find out that it works when table t2 also has a timestamp column.

drop table t2create table t2 (b int PRIMARY KEY, c varchar(30), ts timestamp)

Compare the views again with tablediff and get:
... vt1 and vt2 ... are identical.

What dou you think, do I always need the same datatypes in source- and target-table I want to compare, even if a create a subselection via views?

Cheers,

SQL 2012 :: Tablediff And Nvarchar (max)

Oct 9, 2014

Using MSSQL Server 2012 Standard on a Windows 2008R2 Standard server.

For the tablediff utility MSDN says:

The Transact-SQL script generated to bring the destination table into convergence does not include the following data types: varchar(max), nvarchar(max), timestamp...etc

We have a small replication job running and one of the tables contains a timestamp field. After running tablediff the generated script contains a note:

-- Column(s) AccessTS are not included in this script because they are of type(s) text, ntext, varchar(max), nvarchar(max), varbinary(max), image, timestamp, or xml. Columns of these types cannot be updated by tablediff utility scripts; .....

The updated record is in the script file, but the timestamp field is omitted.

All good so far.

However, another table contains nvarchar(max) fields. The scripts that are generated for these tables do not contain the above message and instead contain these nvarchar(max) fields in both the update and insert into statements!

So why does it say it will ignore these types of fields, but then actually include the nvarchar(max) ones in the generated scripts?

Tablediff,sp_publication_validation,sp_article_validation

Jul 11, 2007

I'm trying to put together an automated system that uses sp_publication_validation & the tablediff utility to automatically sync up our subscribers to the publisher. What I'm noticing is that the sp_publication_validation sys proc gets run on the publisher. It does a rowcount and binary_checksum of each article in a specified publication. When I do a binary_checksum myself I've verified these results. For some reason a column could be a smalldatetime on the publisher and all the subscribers, however, the binary checksum will be different IF RUN from the publisher for that column/row/table. If I run the binary_checksum from the subscriber (instead of accross ODBC using a linked server command) I'm seeing matching checksums.



The result of this is I'm seeing a bunch of records that are actually identical coming through the tablediff command as different. I have a few questions. Has anyone ever run accross this issue before? I believe it has something to do w/ ODBC. I'm willing to work/share a pretty nice SSIS package that I am developing if somebody could assist me in figuring a way around this issue.





Thanks,

Phil

SQL 2012 :: Tablediff With Linked Server

Jan 26, 2015

I have created a linked server that point to a firebird database, everything is fine, I can query the database with something like

Select * from MYLINKEDSERVER...MYTABLE

Now , can i use tablediff utility with this linked server. If yes, any example ..

I would say also that performance is not very important to me. this would be used at the end of the day to make some sort of replication by generating a sql script with datadiff, and run it on a local sql server database and a web based SQL database. The replication is not an option since i am using a shared web hosting and replication is disabled on it .

TableDiff Out Of Memory Exception On Large Tables.

Sep 20, 2007

Hello,
I hope I am posting this in the right forum.

I am using tableDiff.exe to create a diff SQL script for a very large table (~4 million rows).


After a few minutes, I recieve a "System.OutOfMemoryException".

I have 4GB of ram on the machine executing the table diff.
The server is 32-bit, so adding ram is not an option.

I am executing the following command line:





Code Snippet

TableDiff.exe" -sourceserver "SERVER" -sourcedatabase "SourceDB" -sourcetable "Table1" -destinationserver "SERVER" -destinationdatabase "DestDB" -destinationtable "Table1" -f "C:TableDiffsTable1"

I have seen reports of other users executing tableDiff against 2million row tables.

Is there anyway to buffer tableDiff, so that I do not run out of memory on the server?

Could anything else be causing this error?

Thanks,
Dave

BCP Utility .

Aug 6, 2002

Hello ,

I want to know how can i can use the bcp coomand to import a text file into a SQL database table . The text file contains info. like servername , date , time , logininfo and description .

The problem is i cannot import that file into the table through data import wizard . The wizard is not able to separate the fields properly and the import takes place with mixed up data in different columns . The separator in the text file is colon . I even tried fixed length with manual column separation .
The text in the text file are not aligned properly as these are log files generated by the system which i am trying to import in a table .

So how can use the bcp command to specify the column length properly and seperate the fields uniformly so that the data gets imported neatly .

Any thoughts how could the command look like ?

Thank you very much .
Anita.

BCP Utility

Jul 27, 2004

Hi all,

I want to use the BCP utility to import data from a .dat file into my database. The .dat file contains a table called xv_Appointments containing the following fields:

AppointmentKey
SurgerySlotKey
PatientKey
Cancelled
Continuation
Deleted
TimeArrived

I would like to import only two of these fields into a table called tbl_Appointments e.g.

AppointmentKey
TimeArrived

I can't seem to get the BCP util to do this. It only works if I import all of the fields from xv_Appointments. Does anyone know if this is possible?

Thanks

I am currently in the process of transfering data from an existing SQL 6.5 server to new box. Both boxes have SQL 6.5 with SP4. I having a problem with a paticular database transfer. The Database/Object transfer utility starts and then about 20% in it says that it is complete. The transfer creates all the objects in the new server but does not transfer the data.

BCP Utility In SQL SERVER 7.0

Jan 28, 2001

I am trying to do BCP from a comma separator .txt file to upload it into two tables. That is I want the first row (4 columns of header details ) into one table and from the second row (21 columns each of detail rows) to be uploaded into another table. I have written a batch file to upload the header details by giving the first and last column as 1.It is working fine. But when I try to upload the detail rows into another table by giving the first row as 2, the bcp is not able to read from the second row. It skips the second row and reads from the third row. This happens for all separators like pipeline separators also.So to avoid this I have to give blank 21 separators(i.e. , or |) in the second row to avoid the loss of data. Please provide a solution for this, as I cannot insist my customer to provide me a text file with blank comma in the second row.
Thanks and Regards,
S.Raghuraman

Timeout On The Rs Utility

Apr 22, 2008

The following webpage desribes the rs utility:-
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms162839.aspx

And it says that rs supports the optional parameter, -ltimeout

Can someone tell me what this timeout does/means?

We are passing in a VB.NET script file that reads an XML file that executes a series of reports. Does the timeout apply to the whole VB.NET script file, or to the individual execution of each report?

Can you also tell me, what happens if it times-out? Does SQL Server kill the SQL job generating the report? Or does it just disconnect the client from the server leaving the job to continue generating the report?

Thanks

How To Use The Bcp Utility Correctly?

Dec 9, 2007

Hi guys,

I'm trying to use the bcp utility to transfer data from an SQL Server table (CUSTOMERS) to a text file (test.txt).

Here is what I have:
DECLARE @FileName varchar(50)
SET @FileName = 'C: est.txt'

EXEC bcp BAirwaysDB..CUSTOMERS out @FileName -S<servername> -T

only I keep getting the error:
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 4
Incorrect syntax near '.'.

and when running:
bcp BAirwaysDB..CUSTOMERS out C: est.txt -S<servername> -T

on the command line I get:
SQLState = 28000, NativeError = 18456
Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Login failed for user 'RIVERAMelanie'.
SQLState = 42000, NativeError = 4060
Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Cannot open database "BAirways" requested by the login. The login failed.

Can you see where I'm going wrong with this? Any feedback would be really appreciated.

Thank you

DTSRun Utility Won't

Aug 18, 2005

I have been successful at setting up three or four DTS packages to runusing the DTSrun command line utility and the Windows scheduler untilnow. The latest package gives me the following error no matter what Itry.Error: -2147217355 (80041035); Provider Error: 0 (0)Error string: General error -2147217355 (80041035).Error source: Microsoft Data Transformation Services (DTS) PackageHelp file: sqldts80.hlpHelp context: 705I googled the error but got only two hits, only one of which actuallydiscussed the error. That one talked about the security and ID contextof the system agent but I can't even run the package from the commandline, never mind using the Windows chron. The DTS command line I'musing looks like this:DTSRun /S MyServerInstance /R DBName /N MyDTSPacakgeName /EVariations included /U MyUserName /P MyPassWord and a couple others.Next step would have been to use /!Y and /!C to create an encoded batchfile to use for the Windows scheduler.Any help would be most appreciated.Randy
