SQL Server 2008 :: Getting Error While Creating Linked Servers

Sep 15, 2015

Below is the syntax I am using for creating Linked server from SQL Server i.e windows 2008 R2 standard to Postresql database running on Linux 32 bit Debian (Linux turtle 3.2.0-4-686-pae #1 SMP Debian 3.2.46-1+deb7u1 i686 GNU/Linux) and the version of Postresql is 8.3

/****** Object: LinkedServer [HGCDEV] Script Date: 09/15/2015 17:03:37 ******/

Error Creating View Which Uses Linked Server

Jan 24, 2008

Hellow,

This is the siuation:
I have on server A SQL 2005
on server B i have SQL 2000

I want to create in a database on server A a view which uses a linked server to get data from server B.
The linked server works fine.
But when I want to execute the creation of that view i get this error:

OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "BI_AX_LINK" returned message "Unspecified error".
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "BI_AX_LINK" returned message "The stored procedure required to complete this operation could not be found on the server. Please contact your system administrator.".
Msg 7311, Level 16, State 2, Procedure VW_ASSETTABLE, Line 1
Cannot obtain the schema rowset "DBSCHEMA_TABLES_INFO" for OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "BI_AX_LINK". The provider supports the interface, but returns a failure code when it is used.


I have checked and the collations between the to databases are the same.
Anyone an idea on who to do such thing?
The rights that i have an server B or not that much.

Thanx for the info

'MSDASQL' Error On Linked Servers

Dec 16, 2003

I've seen several posts on linking an AS/400 to a SQL 2000 server.

I have created the link, I can use DTS packages to get data to/from the AS/400 to the SQL Server. However, I cannot write any SQL statements against the AS/400. Here is a basic one that doesn't work...

Select * from openquery(jdedwardspy, 'Select * from mhscrp.f0006')

If you look quickly enough, you can see that it does return a row or so, but then that is replaced by this error...


[OLE/DB provider returned message: [IBM][Client Access Express ODBC Driver (32-bit)]Driver not capable.]

We're running Client Access V5R2, SQL Server 2000 SP3 and MDAC 2.7.1.

Any suggestions?

Get Error Implementing Linked Servers

Apr 29, 2008

Hi Everyone.

I am trying to setup a linked server on 2 machines. Both machines have identical SA login/pwd. Also, both machines have a database called Federated_Bridge.

The setup I have is as follows:

Machine 1: (local) - As it appears in Enterprise Manager
Machine 2: (RealIBM2) - As it appears in Enterprise Manager

Earlier I executed a query to successfully link machine 1 to machine 2 as follows:

-------

EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedserver @server = 'TEST3', @srvproduct = 'SQLServer OLEDB Provider',@provider='SQLOLEDB', @datasrc='REALIBM2', @catalog='Federated_Bridge'

EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedsrvlogin @rmtsrvname='TEST3',@useself='False',@locallogin=NULL,@rmtuser='sa',@rmtpassword='mysapwd'

-----

The above query works. However, when I try to do the same thing from Machine 2, it's not working. It doesn't seem to like the (local) name for the @datasrc field. Here is my new query .. which is failing:


-----

EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedserver @server = 'TEST2', @srvproduct = 'SQLServer OLEDB Provider',@provider='SQLOLEDB', @datasrc='local', @catalog='Federated_Bridge'

EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedsrvlogin @rmtsrvname='TEST2',@useself='False',@locallogin=NULL,@rmtuser='sa',@rmtpassword='mysapwd'

----


The question I have is, how do I reference the SQL instance that is saying (local) ?

Thanks!

Sql Server 2000 - Linked Servers

Jan 23, 2001

I'm working with SQL Server 2000 installed in Windows 2000. When i tried to add the 'servername' as a linked server , i got the following message:

" Error: 15038. The Server 'servername' already exists."

When i execute "sp_linkedservers" , i could see the name "servername" in the list. But before doing this i had Restored the "MSDB" database on this server. Should i use "sp_droplinkedservers" and add them again.

Any comments are most welcome.

Server 2003 - Linked Servers

May 7, 2008

I've set up a Linked server connection to a Windows 2003 server running MySql using SSL.

I can run SQL and T-SQL from the query window using the Server management studio on the
server, and everything is good.

As soon as I apply a trigger to a table on our local server running the same
script, I get a "linked server unable to begin a distributed transaction"
error.

I've google'ed my brains out on this error and tried both Mysql ODBC drivers
3.51 and 5.1 and keep getting the same error.

Any suggestions? Thanks, Tony T

Setting Up Linked Servers With SQL Server And Oracle

Does anyone know where I can get some good examples of how to set up a linked

set up to my Oracle database. In particular I am wondering how the communication works between OLEDB to the Oracle Instance and how to trouble shoot issues (for example, would is the Oracle Listener what OLEDB is talking to?) Thanks!!

Server Aliases/linked Servers Cause Remote Queries

Apr 4, 2008

Can someone please shed some light on what seems to me to be a common requirement.

If I create an alias or linked server to Server1 - say Alias1 - on Server1 and then use that name in a query on Server1, a remote/distributed query is always used (even though we are running on the local server and that overhead is completely unnecessary).

Is SQL Server really not capable of deciding that
select * from Alias1.db1.dbo.table1
and
select * from Server1.db1.dbo.table1
should be optimized and executed exactly the same when Alias1 is Server1, but that it is a distributed query ONLY when Alias1 is really referring to a remote server? I realize that the four part name is not necessary when I am referring to objects on the current server, but I am trying to write code that is server instance independent.

It just seems that if that is not possible, then the only way to create system independent stored procs that can run in dev, staging, and production environments and work with multiple databases on multiple servers is to create all sorts of scripts to regenerate all the procs whenever you move a database between servers?

If SQL Server is even close to the enterprise big iron server that MS now claims it is, it surely needs to support running in dev, staging, and production environments and work with multiple databases on multiple servers?!

I'm really looking for someone to tell me I'm missing something simple, and of course you can do this - but complex workarounds are invited too :-)
This is not something I am investigating as an academic exercise, I am already doing this, but I have to figure out how to do it better because with all these unnecessary distributed queries, performance is horrible.

SQL Server 2008 :: What Could Cause Large Gaps In Servers Default Trace

Feb 12, 2015

I have the default trace on a SQL Server 2008R2 instance enabled and found today that there is a gap of nearly 4 minutes in the trace during a time of the day when there most certainly is not going to be a 4 minute window of nothing.

What if anything could cause the default trace to have a gap like this? The SQL Server Instance (against my preferences) is hosted on VMware however it has its on HOST and so its resources are not being shared with any other server. The data & log files reside on different parts of the SANS. Our IT & Network admins are looking into the issue on their end but when I looked and found a near 4 minute gap in the default trace it hit me that this could be something above/outside of SQL Server.

SQL Server 2008 :: Comparing Integer Values Across Tables And Database Servers?

Mar 6, 2015

how best to approach a problem involving two tables across two different servers.

Table 1: Contains IP Address along with assessment findings. Lets say the fields are IPADDRESSSTR, FINDING

Table 2: Contains Subnet information stored in integer format. The fields are SITE_ID, LOW, and HIGH

What I'd like to do is load the IP range information into memory and then return the findings from table 1 where the IPADDRESSSTR is between the LOW and HIGH integer value.

1) Is there a way to load all of the ranges from table 2 into an array and then compare all the IP addresses (IPADDRESSSTR) from table 1?

2) How do I convert IPADDRESSSTR (a string) to an integer to perform the comparison.

Creating Table On A Different Linked Server

May 6, 2007

Using Microsoft SQL 2000

When creating a table I want to be able to specify not only the db to create it on but also which server to create it on. I have two servers that are linked together, I can view all data without issue.

Doing further research it looks like with the create table command you can tell it the new table name and the database but you can't tell it which server to use. Is there a way of doing this?

Example :

CREATE TABLE LAPTOP.database.dbo.tableName (a INT) gives the following error:

The object name 'LAPTOP.database.dbo.' contains more than the maximum number of prefixes. The maximum is 2.

I am new to linked servers so basically my question is, how do you point to a server within sql before I execute the create table command?

Tx in advance

Creating Linked Server Issues

Nov 17, 2005

I have a Merge Replication Setup. With 3 computers. One computer acts has a central publisher. The 2nd one is a subscriber, and republishes its data to the 3rd computer. Every thing is being done using Windows Authentication method. the 1st PC has SQL SERVER 2000 (Enterprise Manager, the works). The other two are SQL Server MSDE (Rel. A). My process is up and running and works, but heres my issue.

I need to script the replication installation process out., For future installations on machines that will be located in remote parts of the world. The will reside on a secure DSL network.

Anyone familiar with Scripting Merge Replication knows that once you've run certain scripts/procedures on your subscriber, you have to run a final procedure on the publisher to activate or initiate the subscriber as a valid one, and the you can start the Merge Agent on the subscriber, and voila! you're good. The procdure you run is called sp_addmergesubscription . It goes something like this :

BEGIN
exec sp_addmergesubscription @publication = @publicationname, @subscriber = @servername, @subscriber_db = @Attachedbname, @subscription_type = N'pull', @subscriber_type = N'global', @subscription_priority = 56.250000, @sync_type = N'automatic'
END


My intention was to embed this system in a stored proc on the publisher and then call it remotely from the subscriber, before starting the Agent. IT FAILS!!! This is my proc:


Create Procedure RunSp_AM_subscription(@servername Varchar(30), @IAdbname Varchar(20), @Attachedbname Varchar(20))
AS

DECLARE @publicationname Varchar(30)
SET @publicationname = 'REPUBLISH-'+@IAdbname+''

BEGIN
exec sp_addmergesubscription @publication = @publicationname, @subscriber = @servername, @subscriber_db = @Attachedbname, @subscription_type = N'pull', @subscriber_type = N'global', @subscription_priority = 56.250000, @sync_type = N'automatic'
END


When I call it locally ot works fine, but not otherwise........... :eek:

When I try to create a linked server SQL Server seems to think that one already exists (because Replication has already created the said server as a remote server). I think the fact that I am not using SQL Authentication might be a problem too.

Does anyone have any ideas? I mean seriously, any suggestions on what to do. This is qute Urgent..............

Thanks.

Creating A Linked Server To Access DB

Jan 13, 2004

I'm trying to create a linked server to an Access database that resides on a separate machine.

On my PC, I can create a link to the Access db, and view, update, add and delete data. If I create the same linked server on our production Server, I can again view, update, add and delete data. All's well so far.

If I now go back to my own PC (used for developing) I cannot access the linked server on the production machine.

The Access database is stored on a separate PC, so the I'm linking to a remote db. As I said this works fine if I'm sat in front of the PC that the linked server is created on - but not if I use a client PC to connect.

I create the linked server using the following command:
exec sp_addlinkedserver
@server = 'AccLinkedServer',
@provider = 'Microsoft.jet.OLEDB.4.0',
@srvproduct = 'OLE DB Provider for Jet',
@datasrc = '\DatabaseServerAccessDatabase.mdb'


If I run the SQL statement:

SELECT * FROM AccLinkedServer...AnyTableYouLike

I get this error:
Server: Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
OLE DB provider 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0' reported an error.
[OLE/DB provider returned message: The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file '\DatabaseServerAccessDatabase.mdb'. It is already opened exclusively by another user, or you need permission to view its data.]
OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0' IDBInitialize::Initialize returned 0x80004005: ].

I've searched in the MS knowledge base, and this forum and followed all of the advice that was available, but it still won't work.

Anyone got any other advice, before I go totally insane with this.

Cheers.

Creating A Linked Server To An Oracle Database

Aug 29, 2000

Hi all,

I hope someone can help me with linked servers.

In one of my applications running on a MSSQL database, I need to issue a select call to an Oracle database to pull information into my application.

To accomplish this,

1. the ORacle Admin has created a view of the Oracle database for me.
2. I have installed the Oracle client on the SQl server box.
3. A friend has told me that one way to accomplish this is create a linked server from SQL to use OLE/DB for Oracle to connect to the Oracle database
4. So I create the linked server successfully; create the server login sp_addlinkedsrvlogin successfully
5. When I go to query the database, I get the error below:


Server: Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
OLE DB provider 'MSDAORA' reported an error.
[OLE/DB provider returned message: The Oracle(tm) client and networking components were not found. These components are supplied by Oracle Corporation and are part of the Oracle Version 7.3.3 (or greater) client software installation.

You will be unable to use this provider until these components have been installed.]


Anybody understand this?


Thanks in advance,
Faustina
