I administering SQL server and one of or Db (size ~7 Gb) have a table with size 396 MB and 25 indexes created on this one. We working with this DB using Siebel Call center.
I have met a very strange situation: when I tried to get some data (using Siebel) my request take ~5 min. I run Profiler and catched this T-SQL statement which Siebel send to SQL server. After that, I run this T-SQL query using Query Analyser and found that Query Optimiser used wrong index. (clustered index) and try to compare every 470436 rows from the tables.
This is the statement. @P1, @P2, and @P3 just variable which siebel transfer to SQL server.
SELECT ........
FROM
dbo.S_EVT_ACT T1
LEFT OUTER JOIN dbo.S_CONTACT T2 ON T1.TARGET_PER_ID = T2.ROW_ID
WHERE
((T1.APPT_REPT_FLG != @P1 OR T1.APPT_REPT_FLG IS NULL) AND
(T1.TEMPLATE_FLG != @P2 OR T1.TEMPLATE_FLG IS NULL)) AND
(T1.SRA_DEFECT_ID = @P3)
But I found the very strange situation - when I manualy put the value '1-FRK' instead of @P3 - Query Optimizer used RIGHT index and I had a very good performance.
And addition when I tried to run the first Query on the same table but with the only 1000 rows the Query Optimiser choose right index.
Wat's on, wat happend with My Query Optimizer? Wy his decision so different from time to time?
Thank's a lot for any information about how to make Optimiser obedient.

I have some troubles with IBM WebSphere Application Server using MS SQL Server 2005 JDBC Driver. I always get the error e.g. java.lang.SecurityException: class "com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDatabaseMetaData"'s signer information does not match signer information of other classes in the same package
I found this Feedback but it seems to be closed.
A temporary solution for me was to delete the meta-inf directory of the JAR-File, but that can't be the solution.

hi, I have settup up sql mail and did the following: 1. created an E-mail account and configured Out look by creating a pop3 mail profile. tested it by sending and receiving mail, that is ook 2. I Created one domain account for MSsqlserver and Sql Agent service. both services use same account and start automatically in the control panel-services 3. I used the profile that I created in outlook to test the sql mail but got an error: Error 22030 : A MAPI error ( error number:273) occurred: MapiLogon Ex Failed due to MAPI Error 273: MAPI Logon Failed
I really do not know what went wrong. I followed the steps from bol and still having a problem. Am I missing something.
I do have a valid email account I do have a valid domain account I tested outlook using the email account and it worked. so why sql server does not recognise MAPI.
My next question, How to configure MAPI in Sql server if what I did was wrong.

Hello, I am facing a huge problem in my sql server database using access as a front end.The main problem is trying to execute queries "views" ,since they reside on sql server now,and using variables or parameters in reports and forms to filter on this query. Ex. how can the following be implemented using the same query but in sql server? Access ------ SELECT MAT_Charts.YYYYMM FROM MAT_Charts WHERE ((([Area_Code] & "-" & [GROUP_CODE])=[Reports]![MAT_Chart_C1].[MAT_Key])) GROUP BY MAT_Charts.YYYYMM;
It is specifically this statement in which I am interested: [GROUP_CODE])=[Reports]![MAT_Chart_C1].[MAT_Key]))
I have a job that runs each night that deletes all records from a table that are older than two weeks old. Is there some way I can view how many records were deleted from the table each night. Is it written to a log somewhere? Thanks in advance!
Hi all, This is my first thread here. I got an information about SET NO_BROWSETABLE ON/OFF in your forum.. The replier told that this is an undocumented option. My question is how you guys find information on such undocumented things....
I am trying to get job information and have a query set up. However, I would also like to get the owner information. However, the job only stores the sid of the owner. Does anybody know how I could change this query to get the owner name instead of sid? Don't want to use the sp_help_job command.

I'm looking for books or information on command line configuration of settings for things like activating Remote Connections under the Service Area Configuration and setting a port for that connection.
What books would be good to get or where can I download papers on this?
Hi!This is a very simple question and I'm sure you guys will help me a lot.I'm using Visual Basic 2005 for programming. I have one table on my MS SQL 2005 database that has an int column with a counter that needs to be incremented when a user registers.So when reading the value I use a simple SQL query like this: SELECT counter FROM companies WHERE company=0 then I store the value in a local int variable and then I increment it. Then I update the incremented value. UPDATE companies ... I need every single customer to have an individual value. My question is how can I prevent an error, data corruption or whatever if two or more users want to register at the same time? I've been reading about lock update but I'm not sure how to implement it on Visual Basic 2005 and I don't want to store scripts on SQL Server. I'll appreciate your comments and help on this situation.
Hi, I have a problem here in my SQL Server Database. I want to find which trigger is working backend affecting my table input. Since the original author of this trigger was somebody else, I am not able to find the trigger information A simple line of syntax would be great. Thanks in advance sandeep

I need to write an auditing trigger that will capture time of an insert and user that is making the insert. The time part i think i can use getdate(), but how can I find out which user is making the insert? Any help appreciated.
Is there any way to use Transact SQL to get the detailed information on a process like you get when you use the GUI interface under the Enterprise manager for server activity.
Is there a way to view the triggers on a table using query analyzer?
I have a developer that wants to see this information without having to right click every table in the database and viewing the triggers through enterprise manager.
I just started at a new company. The security stinks, everyone logs into the servers as sa (including many applications). I am taking steps to tighten security and restrict access to the sa login. I would like to capture some additional information at logon as an interim measure.
Can anyone assist me in automatically recording the following: Host Name / IP Address Login time
I realize I could periodically run an sp_who2 and capture the results - I also realize that if I turn on auditing, the logon will be written to the SQL Srvr LOG - I'm looking for an elegant / low impact way to capture the logon and host information.
I'm trying to access data from one table by matching ids pulled from another table. I can't quite get the syntax though if anybody could help I would appericate it.
Here is where I'm at
select * from table1 where variable 1 = (select distinct(variable 2) from table 2 where variable 3 = variable 4)
Hi, I'm trying to get the information about the user who modified the record in the table. I'm able to capture the datetime of modification through trigger.
CREATE TRIGGER [upd_dtm] ON dbo.Sample FOR INSERT, UPDATE AS BEGIN UPDATE Sample SET update_dtm = (SELECT GETDATE()) WHERE Sample.ID IN (SELECT ID FROM inserted) END
I'm stuck, how to get the User who modified it? Any help is greately appreciated!

What i am trying to do is have the contact information to be displayed also. The contact information is in dbo.CONTSUPP under column 'contact'. Is there anyway to pass that 'contact' value up to the parent select statement. So the result will show Company, Address1,...,Source, contact.
SELECT Company, Address1, Address2, Address3, City, State, Zip, Country, Phone1, Fax, Source FROM dbo.CONTACT1 WHERE dbo.CONTACT1.ACCOUNTNO IN ( SELECT ACCOUNTNO FROM dbo.CONTSUPP WHEREcontact LIKE '%test1%' OR contact LIKE '%test2%' OR contact LIKE '%test3%' OR contact LIKE '%test4%' GROUP BY ACCOUNTNO HAVING COUNT(*) <= 1 )
I'm assuming that in one of the MSDB tables I can find transaction log information (current size, amount of space used.. blah blah).. but I can't seem to figure out which one.. any help is appreciated.. SQL 7.0
We just started using SQL Server. I'm new on the SQL side of things. We have SQL setup in a test environment with users connecting and performing job related functions. An in house programmer has developed software for our users which connects to the SQL Server
I'm looking for information pertaining to events that have teken place within SQL. Does SQL give you details on updates and changes made to specific tables. I'm looking for some way of looking up item numbers and the user that entered the data. We have noticed that some of the users may be entering in wrong data within certain tables. And would like to educate them on what they are doing wrong.
I need to know what certain users are logging and entering into our SQL Server.
What are the most detailed logs that SQL Server provides that has information on what the users are doing has far an entering in data.
can you please send me some links regarding triggers from basics to gain indepth knowledge. i tried in google, but due to limited access in ouroffice,i can not find the best.
additional to data, what other type of information can be store in sql databases, i need to store pictures and mp3's that can be done, if not do you know what storage can be used for this purpose?
I am not sure if this belongs under this forum or 'New to SQL' so please feel free to move it if necessary.
Following on from an issue i have had with sysdepends and syscomments tables filling up, I have been trying to research what these tables are and how they get filled up (i.e. what is the trigger to insert a row into these tables).
Unfortunately on all my web searches and book searches i have not found anything much more than 'They are system tables'. From what i have gleaned, it looks like every time a stored procedure or database object is changed, then this will create a new entry into the sysdepends table which highlights what the new object is linked to.
Is this understanding correct? And does anyone have any other sources of information which might give me a better idea of what and how these tables are about.
