Need your help !!
I have a database say for e.g Test_db . I have data in the form of Image and text in the database . The image data or symbols corresponds to the right text data . This database is being replicated to other servers . The servers are SQL Server 7.0 with SP 3 .
But when this database is replicated , the subscriber does not get the data in the right form . The image and text fields do not correspond properly as it is on the publisher . But sometimes it works .
This is a strange problem and i could not make out what could be the exact problem .
Does any body have insight of this problem pl .
Any kind of help will be appreciated .
Hi folks; I have two SQL machines; SERVER1 (Publisher) and SERVER2(Pull Subscriber). Every thing seems to be working but: I've just imported 17,000 records from another SQL database into a published table of the production server SERVER1 using IMPORT-EXPORT wizard. Now the subscriber doesn't get updated with these records. When i run the merge-agent; the agent just stops with success without pulling the data.
When i set the agent-profile to ROWCOUNT-VALIDATION; it fails at this table.
Publisher db at SERVER1 has recovery-model =FULL Subscriber db at SERVER2 has recvery-model=BULK-LOGGED
Can i get some help please on the replication of Database . I want to know if i can have two different types of Publications i.e Snapshot and Transactional on a single Database for different articles ?
I want to schedule two jobs for these two distribution at two different timings . The problem now is when i start exeuting a job for Transactional replication , my snapshot replication also starts . How can i avoid this situation ?
Can anybody help me with detiled stepps to resolve this problem ?
I am trying to do mearge replication with in our organisation. One server is located at server room(version 7.0) and it runs on NT server. Another server(desktop edition (version 7.0)) is at my desktop runs on NT Workstation. I am creating mearge replication from my machine making server room machine as Publisher and distributor and my desktop server as subscriber. But after creating replication when i view mearge agent job status it says that connection to my machine is failed. And because of this my replication is not working.
on both the servers "SQL Server Agent" service is running and i am also logging into both the servers with the same login with sa server role
I am getting following error in the "error details merge agent" dialog box catagory -------------source -------------------------Number Agent-------- "subscription server name" --------------20084 Data Source ---"subscription server name"-------------- 6
HI, We have one publisher and 100 subscribers. And Subscribers again act as re-publisher for 3-4 win CE (Handheld) based device subscribers. Now. We have already done the setup and it is working fine. Now due to some change in horizontal filters set in the publisher, we have change in publication. NOw whenever I make any change in publication, it says all subscribers will be marked for reinitialization and snapshot agent will run and new schema will be applied whenever next time merge agent runs. But whenever I run the merge agent, the snapshot agent fails saying invalid column ... . I am not able to revert the changes as the same error persists even after bringing the publication back to the original state. To add to the complexity, we have also used dynamic snapshots between publisher and suscribers. So, Can anyone please tell me how can I change the publication script without deleting the subscribers?Any pointers in this direction are really appreciated.
Dear Friends, I am very new to replication, For learning purpose I am trying to setup merge replication. The given setup I am using.
1. Windows 2000 Server + SP4 (Publisher for SQL 2000) 2. Windows 2003 Server + SP1 (Subscriber For SQL 2000)
I am getting a replication error, I have taken this errors details from merge agent on publisher server.
Find enclosed replication error details in the microsoft document file format (.doc). The document is consist of three SQL Server snapshot rather three diffrent errors.
In the pictures you can find the red & white color cross (wrong sign) on replication monitor tab, I don't know why it is appearing. :confused:
Kindly, give me guidance to rectify this error & setup the marge replication between two SQL 2000 Servers.
Extremely thanks for the reply . I am using transactional replication for the database . I will try with snapshot replication as you suggested .
You mentioned that it will work with Transactional replication only if the application uses the option ' with log ' for those transactions .
Can you let me know where can i set this option for transaction replication ? I am sorry but i am not well versed with database replication procedures and management .

Hi allI am creating a web services application in Visual Studio Dot netwhich links to a MS SQL database.I need to create a form which lets the user pick his field ofchoice(doesnt matter what it is..) using drop down boxes,radio buttonsetc and query the database according to what he has picked andretrieve only those columns and rows.The thing is, I do not want to hardcode the queries usingOleDbDataAdapter or SqlDataAdapter, but want the query to be generatedon the fly, once the user picks his fields from the form.I'd greatly appreciate any help.Thanks,m
I am writting a very simple ASP.NET code, I am simlply trying to establish a connection with the database in SQL Server 2000 and than closing the connection but still I am getting an exception,the name of the database is mydatabase, SQL Server 2000 is running in the windows authenticationfiltered=SSPI. The name of SQL Server 2000 running onfiltered=xyz, I checked the name from SQL Server Service Manager.Also I would like to state here that I also tryed to establish a connection using C# and the connection was successfully establish which means that there is no problem with SQL Server also I sucessfully established the connection with MS Access and my ASP.NET application which proves that there is no problem with IIS also.Also please check that the connection string which I am providing is correct or not.The exception which I am getting is as follows: /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// An exception occured while establishing connection Login failed for user 'xyzASPNET'. //////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// Please also note that I have a user with the name xyz/Administrator in the logins of Sql Server 2000. Also note one more thing that the name of my PC is xyz, I think that there is some problem with the connection string which i am providing so please especially check the connection string that either I have missed some thing or some thing has gone wrong,also please tell that are there any security restructions for ASP.NET to access SQL Server 2000 or some thing like that which I have to remove.The code is as follows: ////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// <%@ Page Language="C#" %> <%@ Import Namespace="System.Data" %> <%@ Import Namespace="System.Data.SqlClient" %>
The same above code is also present in the attachement file data.aspx , please guide me where I am making mistake and please tell me that how can I correct this mistake so that the code executes correctly.Also please tell that what things should be included in the connection string and also please check the connection string of this code.
How much RAM is necessary for concurrent SQL connections? My server has 2 Xeon processors, 1GB RAM, a 10GB database size on a TCP/IP box. CPU utilization can run 80-90% and pages/sec can sometimes jump up to 40, especially is the users are running reports from the SQL database. I've been told by some people that I have enough RAM to support the 130 SQL user connections. Others I've been told that I need at least 40MB RAM per user (which means that I'm about 4GB short of RAM). Based on previous entries, I obviously need more, but how much more is the question.
Hi, I have a doubt..... I have a text field that is 255 bytes in lenght and I want the contents of this full field to be split.....on various gouds which may be ',' or and or 'And' etc
This field stores all the skills...
So i have created a search module ....but this search is taking awfully long as u know text field searches are tedious...
Can u please suggest a way I could parse/split the text field to enable faster search....
I am trying to create a script that will return information from 4 different tables in a database using different where clauses.
This is working correctly, however the primary table the query uses has multiple entries for different people and i only want to return the last row per person. I have got this to work using a MAX(t.column) statement, but when used in conjunction with all the where clauses things go wrong.
This is what i have
Code:
CREATE VIEW Firereport1 AS
select max(t.punch_id) as punch, e.EMPLOYEE_FIRSTNAME, e.EMPLOYEE_LASTNAME, c.CLOCK_NAME, t.PUNCH_TIME, d.DEPT2_DESCRIPTION
FROM TM_PUNCH t, EMPLOYEE e, COMM_CLOCK c, DEPT2 d
WHERE t.PUNCH_EMPID = e.EMPLOYEE_ID and e.EMPLOYEE_ONCLOCK <> 'False' and e.EMPLOYEE_LASTTIMELOC = c.CLOCK_ID and e.EMPLOYEE_LASTDEPT2 = d.DEPT2_ID
group by e.EMPLOYEE_FIRSTNAME, e.EMPLOYEE_LASTNAME, c.CLOCK_NAME, t.PUNCH_TIME, d.DEPT2_DESCRIPTION
GO
This returns multiple entries because there are multiple unique entries for t.punch_time.
What i was thinking is i need a where statement on t.time_punch, d.dept2_description, c.clock_name that says something along the lines of where return t.punch_time where t.punch_id=punch (**substitute correct column names**)
I have two related tables in my SQL database that I wish to join as follows:------------------------------------tblCustomersID (pk)Nameetc.tblCustomerManagersID (pk)CustomerID (fk)Manager (this *is* an fk but for the purposes of demonstration isnot)StartDate (indicates the date upon which the manager took / is takingcontrol of the company)------------------------------------Example entries are:tblCustomers1 Microsoft2 Symantec3 BorlandtblCustomerManagers1 1 Barry 01/01/032 1 Peter 01/07/033 2 Norman 01/02/034 3 Terry 01/01/035 3 Peter 01/07/05------------------------------------What I want to do is extract, in one query, a list of all customers andtheir *current* associated manager, so the result set today would be:Microsoft Peter 01/07/03Symantec Norman 01/02/03Borland Terry 01/01/03Currently I have:SELECT [Name], [Manager], [StartDate]FROM tblCustomersINNER JOIN tblCustomerManagers ON tblCustomerManagers.[CustomerID] =tblCustomers.[ID]WHERE [StartDate] <= GETDATE()ORDER BY [Name], [StartDate] DESCbut this obviously returns multiple entries for customers having managersprior to today eg:....Microsoft Peter 01/07/03Microsoft Barry 01/01/03....I know this is a simple question but I cannot think of a way of doing itwithout making the query extremely complicated.Any help is appreciated,Thanks,df
Need some suggestions for senior management for DR Purposes:
Background:
WSS/MOSS2007 is being used as a Document Management solution.
17 Servers geographically dispersed around the UK. Each server runs WSS 3, SQL Server 2005 and IIS. Each server is linked into a PiP cloud via 2MB MPLS.
At each location; We are looking at 20 core databases; each pre-sized to 10GB. If I take one site as an example, the previous nights backup totalled 135GB.
The company has taken a centralised view on backup's, so SQL Server Data and Log files are replicated using Double-Take to a central location where by the files are taken onto tape daily (Full backup of all files).
As a precaution, I take a Full SQL Server backup daily and also Tran Logs every 4 hours locally and keep it there for 2 days; however if the site goes boom I loose those, so for this purpose; please forget they exist.
As I expect; when I restore the mdf and ldf files from tape, I will get errors when I attach those files into SQL Server for transactional inconsistencies which I'm well aware of.
Other options I've considered are:
1) DB Mirroring. Not a bad option, but still have to get the DB to the Mirror Server in the first place. Also DB Mirroring is not recommended for more than 10 mirrored databases.
2) Log Shipping. Same issue as above; Have to get the data here in the first place. Then once Log Shipping is setup; if I have a failure; I need to start the whole lot off again.
3) Transactional Replication. Issue is with the initial replication getting the data from A to B, then if I need to use it in a DR situation; I will get issues saying this table is being used for replication. This can be worked around, but it's a not a quick process...
4) 3rd Party Backup Compression. E.G. Litespeed; Redgate SQL Backup, etc. Good; Tests have shown a 42% compression for us, however if I refer to the earlier example of 135GB, this compresses to 81GB. Throw in the theoretical max for a 2MB link of 19GB / 24 Hours, this would take 4 Days to copy.
Other thoughts I've come up with are:
A) Split the tables into different file groups; not sure how easy this would be as the DB's and Tables already exist.
B) Full/Diff/Tran. Still have the issue of scheduling the full backup over the weekend and taking 4 days to get here.
C) Local Tape Backups. Issue is relying on someone to change the tape on a daily basis. It's not centrally managed and how do we restore in a DR situation ?
