Unable To Get Snapshot Agent To Initialize

Feb 20, 2006

I am unable to get my snapshot agent to initialize. When I start the "View Snapshot Agent Status" and press the Start button, it appears that the snapshot agent attempts to starts and then it doesn't.

I have configured the a distribution server and need to push a replication to another database, both can connect, etc.

I used the wizard to configure the distributon server and subscription server. I am using AdventureWorks, and am attempting to replicate a single small table.

Trouble Getting Snapshot Agent To Initialize Publication

Nov 16, 2006

I have been trying to set up transactional replication between an OLTP SQL Server 2005 Standard edition server and a BI SQL Server 2005 Enterprise edition server. I am using a pull subscription. I was able to establish the replication from the developement server to the BI server however when I tried setting up the replication between the production environment and the BI server, using the same configuration settings, I ran into a problem. The production server had been renamed after it was initially set up. I used the sp_dropserver and sp_addserver to solve this issue and was able to run the replication wizard. However once the wizard finishes the snapshot agent doesn't initialize the publication. When I look at the replication monitor it has a status of "never run". I try to run it manually and it appears to run for a few seconds then stops and still has the status of "never run". I don't get any error messages and can't find anything in the log. I am wondering if this is related to the server rename? I am hoping to find a soultion that doesn't involve uninstalling SQL Server and reinstalling since this is a production environment.

Thanks.

How Can I Skip An Initialize Snapshot?

Jun 2, 2006

Hence you have a database which huge tables and a transactional replication (push subscriptions).

Now my question:

1. if I have to initialize a snapshot but I would like to do it without the snapshot agent, what methods are available?



2. Usually the distribution agent will request an initialize snapshot. How can I tell him, that I would like to use an alternative method and that the distribution agent should NOT request a snapshot?



3. Any suggestions about a good practive for materializing huge and big tables wihtout using the disitrbution agent (e.g. "switch off" replication, bcp table out of the primary site and bcp it into the target site, "start" distribution agent so that it doesn't request a snapshot).

Replication Without Initialize Subscriptor With The Snapshot

Feb 1, 2007

Hello all,


I am developing a system using SQL Server replication between SQL Server EXPRESS 2005 clients and SQL Server 2005 servers. I initialize the replica databases with a script, then I do not want to initilize the subscriber with the snapshot; I configure each subscriber to "not initilize", but when I run the first synchronization the snapshot copy process is always is executed.

Maybe am I forgetting something? Can I use this SQL Server EXPRESS - SQL Server replication scheme without initialize the subscribers with the snapshot?
Thaks for reading!

Do I Really Need A Snapshot (to Initialize Transactional Replication, In SQL2000)?

Feb 20, 2006

I have a pretty big (350 gb) OLTP database that I want to replicate in its entirety. I'm concerned about the impact of taking a snapshot of it (it is processing at some level pretty much 24x7). I know on SQL2005 there is the option to initialize from backup, but unfortunately we won't be on 2005 in time.

I'm thinking of doing something like this:

Set up the distributor, publication, and subscription
Turn off distribution agent
Set the publisher to "sync with backup"
Backup the publisher, full then log
Truncate tables MSrepl_transactions and MSrepl_commands in the distribution db (I don't have any other replication going on)
Turn off "sync with backup"
Restore the full and tran log backups to new subscriber db
Create subscriber stored procs in subscriber
Start up distribution agent

I'm looking for opinions on whether it's worth going this route to avoid taking the snapshot. Data integrity is the number one priority -- if I have to do a snapshot to ensure that, I will do it.

Thanks in advance!

Mike

Snapshot Agent && Log Reader Agent Will Not Start.

Nov 30, 2006

Hi All,

I would appreciate any help here at all. I am pulling my hair out!

I am unable to start the snapshot agent or log reader agent from within SQL management studio. it fails on executing step 2 with unknown username or bad password.

I have checked all account details and they are correctly using my domain admin account. I can connect to SQL using teh same account and it also has sysadmin permissions.

If i copy the step 2 paramters and start from the cmd prompt (again logged in using the same domain account) they both start fine.



Any ideas would be gratefully received.

Cannot Start Log Reader Agent And Snapshot Agent

May 18, 2007

I am testing peer to peer replication in our environment. I simulated a three node peer to peer topology and a local distributor.

For some wierd reason I cannot get the Log Reader Agent and snapshot agent to start. The domain account under which SQL Server Agent runs has administrator previlage on the box. I also use a domain account for SQL Server Service. (none of the passwords changed).

This is the error I am getting - "Executed as user: abc. A required privilege is not held by the client. The step failed"

Any ideas???





Also this domain account is a member of

Snapshot Agent Won't Start

Mar 11, 2008

Hi guys,

I'm trying to set up merge replication between a SQL Server 2000 SP4 / Win2k box and a MSDE SP4/WinXP box and I'm finding that the initial snapshot isn't being produced.

The SQL Agent runs as a windows user that has admin privileges, the snapshot agent impersonates the SQL Agent. The SQL Server login for the agent account has the server role "System Administrators" and database access to all db's.

When I turn on logging and try to start the agent, the following is written to the log:
Microsoft SQL Server Snapshot Agent 8.00.760
Copyright (c) 2000 Microsoft Corporation
Microsoft SQL Server Replication Agent: SVRName-POS-POS_Test_Suburb-1

Connecting to Distributor 'SVRName'
SourceTypeId = 5
SourceName = SVRName
ErrorCode = 18456
ErrorText = Login failed for user 'SVRNameSQLAgent'.
The process could not connect to Distributor 'SVRName'.

Most of the posts I've seen regarding problems like this are due to subscriber authentication issues (not up to that, this is the initial snapshot) or windows/domain user permissions.

Any ideas what else it might be?

Snapshot Agent - Stopping

Jun 15, 2007

Hi am trying to create a snapshot (Merge replication) - My database is approx 6GB and one of my tables has 14.5M records - I have a total of 1500 articles to replicate.



When I start creating the snapshot - it seems to just stop on the Table that has the 14.5M records. When I delete all the data in that table it works fine. I have also check disk space and also the log files and tempdb size and all seem ok.



I am using SQL 2005 with the latest SP



Is there any form of verbose logging that I could enable to let me see what is going on





Any help would be greatly appreciated

MS SQL Server 2000 Snapshot Agent

Hello Sir,

Now I'm choosing Trasactional publication as my publication type. I now can successfully replicate the data from publisher to subscriber without any error.

But now my question is what is the usage of snapshot agent? When I go to Replication Monitor > Agents > Snapshot Agents > Start Agent but failed.

I need to check with you whether the way I start the snapshot agent was not correct? What is the effect if I drop snapshot agent during the replication and DBUpdate are running?

Please kindly help me .

Thank You.

Transactional Replication &&amp; Snapshot Agent

Why would you schedule a Snapshot Agent to run daily, weekly, monthly, etc. for Transactional replication when the transactions are replicated once the change is committed to the Publication database?



Does this help to replicate DDL against the Subscriber?

Snapshot Agent Can Not Connect To Distributor

Apr 24, 2006

I'm trying to set up merge replication between SqlServer 2000 and SqlMobile 2005. When I create the publication, I select merge replication for SqlServer CE. When I view the status of the snapshot agent, the error message is "the process could not connect to Distributor. The step failed".

I've verified both SqlServer and SqlServer Agent are running under the same domain account (with admin access to the server). This domain account has full access to the snapshot shared folder. I've also run "exec sp_helpserver", which gives me the server name for both the name and network_name fields where id=0.

I'm able to successfully set up merge replication between SqlServer 2005 and SqlMobile 2005, but my production servers are sql 2000.

Snapshot Agent Missing Files.

Jan 16, 2007

My Snapshot Agent for SQL Server 2005 sometimes does not fully complete. I am expecting around 2073 files in the snapshot folder but only get 492 (this number does change). I have immediate_sync set to true, so I should get a full snapshot every time. It seems to quit after all data has been BCP'ed out and before the schema generation starts. I do get the "The replication agent has not logged a progress message in 10 minutes. This might indicate an unresponsive agent or high system activity. Verify that records are being replicated to the destination and that connections to the Subscriber, Publisher, and Distributor are still active. " message in the MSSnapshot_history table.

I am guessing that there is some sort of blocking that is preventing the snapshot agent from continuing and then it times out and dies. But that is a total guess as I have not been able to observe the behavior, only the outcome.

Any suggestions to what the cause is or how I can fix it?

Thanks, Amy

Dynamic Snapshot Agent Error

Feb 17, 2006

I am setting up a large number of Push subscribers to a single publication. because of the large number of subscribers, I am not doing the merge with agent jobs, but with SQL RMO. All works well, but from time to time I am getting a funny error when I add a event handler to the snapshotagent, to return the messages, if some feedback to the screen on how the process is getting along.

The error also happen when the process is al most done. Basically when I am not compiling in this line, then NO error.

//Add the Event Handler to receive the Status changes

DynamicSnapshotAgent.Status += AgentEvent;

But once I started getting the error, then it would not go away, sometimes if the publication & subscribers is recreated it goes away but not always, first do not use the event anymore, and at some stage I can put is back after a few succesful dynamic snapshot, then I can enable the event and it will work again........

Any help welkom

Regards

Gertus

Replication :: Snapshot Agent Updates Statistics

Jun 26, 2015

We have transactional replication publications from SQL 2014 to SQL 20122008 R2. When we add new tables to the existing publication and start the snapshot agent, Snapshot agent updates the statistics for random tables on the publisher DB. It appears that all the outdated statistics are being updated regardless which table is being initiated. In a highly transactional environment we can't update the statistics every time. its causing huge issues for us. Is there any work around for this ?

How To Programmatically Find Out Whether Snapshot Agent Has Finished?

Oct 15, 2007

Hi,

I want to generate a new snapshot using stored procedures. I want to wait for the snapshot files to be created and then execute a stored procedure. What's the best way to determine that the snapshot has completed successfully? I thought of doing something like:

exec msdb.dbo.sp_help_job
@job_name = @job_name
@job_aspect = 'job',
@execution_status = 1

however I can't put the results of that proc into a temp table because I get this error:
Msg 8164, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_get_composite_job_info, Line 72
An INSERT EXEC statement cannot be nested.

Any ideas? I'd like a T-SQL solution.

Thanks,
Mark.

The database has another publication, that was created prior to upgrade to sql server 2005 from sql server 2000 sp4. This publication is working ok, and there are no problems when running the snapshot agent for this publication.

The publications are using filtered articles, and all properties for the publications are the same.



Any help to solve this problem will be much apreciated.

SQL Server 2008 :: Transactional Replication (Snapshot Agent)

Mar 19, 2015

Is there a way to force the snapshot to use a format file when bcp'ng the data to the subscriber?

The publisher and subscriber schemas are slightly different. Mainly added columns to the subscriber.

We have a post snapshot script that updates these additional columns on the subscriber.

I'd like to force the snapshot to use a format file, so it doesn't error when initially loading the data to the subscriber.

Is this possible?

Snapshot Agent Fails For Merge Replication Publication

Nov 9, 2006

I'm trying to setup merge replication and get the following error from the snapshot agent after I've finished the 'New Publication Wizard'. This doesn't make sense to me as it is an automatic process. Also, it looks like it is complaining about a 'dbo.MSmerge_cont...' view which is a view created automatically for the merge publication.
