4 Transaction Log Questions
Jul 20, 2005
1) Can one find the location of the 'Transaction Log' at: <Hard
Disk>Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLDataMyDb_Log.ldf?
2) Is it safe to delete it, as SQL will create a new Transaction Log when it
realises none already exist?
3) When trying to do 2) I get error message that file is in use, even though
SQL Server is closed. Any suggestions?
4) Can anyone shed light on the error message 'Write on ... <my path
here>... failed, status = 112. BACKUP LOG is terminating abnormally'? I get
this when trying to manually backup the Transaction Log 'All Tasks - Backup'
Thanks for any replies to my ignorance.

I am using SSIS with Transaction, and I met a lot of questions as below:
1.IF DTC doesn't support ADO.NET Connection?
Please check the ADO.net Connection's property, it has a property named like: DTCTrancactionSupport. But it's always set to False and unable to edit.
IF the answer is NO, HOW could I bound all my Tasks into one Transaction? You know, I have some Tasks with SQL connection, and I have also some Script Tasks, witch need the ADO.net connection.
2.IF DTC required to run in both the Destination Server and the Source Server?
I have a Dataflow Task, and take some data from a table in a Source Server to a Destination Server. The DTC doesn't run on the Source Server. I found the Dataflow Task hangs when I use the SSIS Transaction(just set the Task's transactionOpion to Required, Only one Task in the Package).
3.IF DTC doesn't support RetainSameConnection?
Many people say that. Really?
4.When a DTC transaction is running, if the table in it could not be modified by process outside of the transaction? For example, a package with a DTC transaction, and there is a SQL Task inside, when it is running, could I modified the same table's data manually(in the Sql Sever Management Studio)?

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
set REPFLAG = 0 where REPFLAG = 1
update TSADMIN.WBENTRY
set REPFLAG = 0 where REPFLAG = 1
update OPENDATASOURCE('SQLOLEDB','Data Source=10.10.10.171;User ID=*****;Password=****').TRANSFERSTN.TSADMIN.FIXED
set REPFLAG = 0 where REPFLAG = 1
update TSADMIN.FIXED
set REPFLAG = 0 where REPFLAG = 1
update OPENDATASOURCE('SQLOLEDB','Data Source=10.10.10.171;User ID=*****;Password=****').TRANSFERSTN.TSADMIN.ALTCHARGE
set REPFLAG = 0 where REPFLAG = 1
update TSADMIN.ALTCHARGE
set REPFLAG = 0 where REPFLAG = 1
update OPENDATASOURCE('SQLOLEDB','Data Source=10.10.10.171;User ID=*****;Password=****').TRANSFERSTN.TSADMIN.TSAUDIT
set REPFLAG = 0 where REPFLAG = 1
update TSADMIN.TSAUDIT
set REPFLAG = 0 where REPFLAG = 1
COMMIT TRAN
It's got me stumped, so any ideas gratefully received.Thx

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.

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?

I created a Calculated measure in cube something like this : ([TransType].[TransTypeHierarchy].[TransTypeCategoryParent].&[SPEND],[Measures].[Transaction Amount]). To get only spend transactions. Now, I want to slice this measure with same hierarchy to find the amount distribution across different transaction types under spend transaction. But this query behaving like the measure doesn't have relation with measure.
you can think this as below query:
WITH
MEMBER SPEND AS ([TransType].[TransTypeHierarchy].[TransTypeCategoryParent].&[SPEND],[Measures].[Transaction Amount])
SELECT NON EMPTY {SPEND} ON 0
,NON EMPTY ([TransType].[TransTypeHierarchy].[TransTypeCategoryParent]) ON 1
FROM [CUBE]

Hresult:0x80004005
descriptionyntax error or access violation.

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?

Hi all,
In my ASP application, I've been using this code:
----------------------------------------------
dim conn, connectionstring
connectionstring= "Provider=SQLOLEDB.1; Data Source = blahblah; Initial Catalog = abc; User Id = osss; Password=xxx"
set conn = server.CreateObject("adodb.connection")
conn.open connectionstring
----------------------------------------------
It's just basically to set up the connection to the SQL server, it works on my other pages, but on a few pages, the last line (conn.open connectionstring) triggers this error:
"Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '8004d00a'
New transaction cannot enlist in the specified transaction coordinator. "
I've never encountered this error before and I couldn't think of any solution... please help!!!
Thanks so much,
Annie

I had thought that if any statement failed within a BEING TRANS .. COMMIT TRANS block, then all the statements would be rolled back. But I am seeing different behavior (SQL Server 2000 8.00.2039)
For instance, run these statements to set up a test:
--DROP TABLE testTable1
--DROP TABLE testTable2
CREATE TABLE testTable1 (f1 varchar(1))
CREATE TABLE testTable2 (f1 varchar(1))
CREATE UNIQUE INDEX idx_tmptmp ON testTable1 (f1)
insert into testTable1(f1) values ('a')
So table testTable1 has a unique index on it..
Now try to run these statements:
--DELETE FROM testTable2
BEGIN TRANSACTION
insert into testTable1(f1) values ('a')
insert into testTable2(f1) values ('a')
COMMIT TRANSACTION
SELECT * FROM testTable2
..the first insert fails on the unique index.. but the second insert succeeds. Shouldn't the second insert roll back? How can I make two operations atomic?

Hello, I've a problem with a software developed in C# with the framework 2.0. This is the error I receive : The operation could not be performed because OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "XXX_LINKED_SERVER" was unable to begin a distributed transaction. OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "XXX_LINKED_SERVER" returned message "No transaction is active.". If I try directly to restart the process, it works fine. Is there someone who can help me ? This is the process 1. In C# --> Call of a Query : select from the linked server (db in sql 2005) and insert into a table SQL 2005 2. In the C# --> using (TransactionScope scope = new TransactionScope()) and insert in a table in SQL 2005 which is link server Thank in advance.

We have a test db, a staging db and a live db. I have a stored procedure that runs fine on test and staging, but throws the following error on live.
The Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MS DTC) has cancelled the distributed transaction.
The stored procedure uses linked servers and a transaction.
We're using the following transaction code in the stored procedure
BEGIN
BEGIN TRANSACTION
BEGIN TRY
---
procedure stuff here
---
COMMIT TRANSACTION
END TRY
BEGIN CATCH
DECLARE @ErrorSeverity INT, @ErrorNumber INT, @ErrorMessage NVARCHAR(4000), @ErrorState INT
SET @ErrorSeverity = ERROR_SEVERITY()
SET @ErrorNumber = ERROR_NUMBER()
SET @ErrorMessage = ERROR_MESSAGE()
SET @ErrorState = ERROR_STATE()
IF @ErrorState = 0
SET @ErrorState = 1
RAISERROR ('ERROR OCCURED:%d', @ErrorSeverity, @ErrorState, @ErrorNumber)
IF XACT_STATE() < 0
ROLLBACK TRANSACTION
END CATCH
END
I found the following link which seems to be the problem we're experiencinghttp://support.microsoft.com/kb/937517
The link includes a workaround which is the following:
"To prevent the SQLNCLI provider from sending an attention signal to the server, use the SQLNCLI provider to consume fully any rowsets that the OLE DB consumer creates. "
How do I use the SQLNCLI provider to fully consume any rowsets?

I have two questions,
1) Could anyone please point me in the right direction concerning information pertaining to NT Server Enterprise Edition verses NT Server Workstations. We are having problems running SQL Server 7.0 and the Enterprise Edition together on the same machine and was wanting to find information about compatability issues, if there are any,
2) I, on a SQL Server 6.5 database shrunk it by 2 Gb. When I looked to see if SQL Server released those 2 Gb back to the hard drive, I was amazed that it didn't! Did I miss something or will SQL Server 6.5 not release the space because of the initial set-up. And why did SQL Server 6.5 automatically take the space from the Transaction logs when neither of the devices were specified? Is the Transaction Log the default area for shrinkage?
Thanks in Advance!

Hi, does anyone know how to explain how SQL transactions get mapped into TDS and TDS gets mapped into TCP/IP packets?
Or can you please point me in the right direction? I need to figure out how TDS and TCP/IP relate?
We're using replication and are having some latency issues and I'm trying to find out how SQL handles TDS and TCP/IP etc...
Thanks for your time.

1. When we create DTS in SQL Server through DTS designer, where are they stored physically?
2. What would be the best way to modify a DTS without using DTS designer?
3. Is there any other way to create DTS apart from DTS designer and Visual Basic?
4. Is there any website which has detailed information for DTS? (which has more FAQs like above?)
In our production environment, we keep changing the servers frequently, and everytime that happens, I have to change the connection properties in all the DTS going to them one by one.
thanks,
sanjay.

I am not too familiar with SQL Server, but my supervisor gave me the task of finding out the difference between SQL Enterprise and SQL Standard. He also asked me to research the difference between processor licences and client access licences. I will use the Internet as a resource, but I would also like to hear the opinions of someone who uses these programs or is knowledgable about them. So please any suggestions or any useful links would be very helpful.
