[SQL Server 2000] How to programmatically read Merge Agent properties

Dear all,
I would like to read from SQL Server information that is presented in
Enterprise Manager \ <server_name> \ Replication Monitor \ Agents \ Merge
Agents (particularly the columns "Subscription" and "Action Time").
Which tables should I read? I checked the tables in msdb and master database
but couldn't find anything suitable. BOL and Google were of no help either.
Thank you in advance for your help.
Best regards,
AndrewTry a profiler trace and examine the source of the executed procs.
Hope this helps.

Ok, I've checked, but unfortunately that is an undocumented procedure:
sp_MSenum_replication_agents @.type = 4
(type = 4 stands for merge replication agent)
Thank you for your help.
Best regards,
Andrew|||I took cursory look at the text of that proc and the called proc and it
looks to me like the source of the data is the MSmerge_history table. It's
documented in the Books Online.
Hope this helps.

[ODBC SQL Server Driver]Timeout Error

Hi,
I receive this intermmitent "[ODBC SQL Server Driver]
Timeout Error" eventhough i have set the Query Timeout in
Enterprise Manager to '0' (unlimited). However when
running the query in Query Analyser, it returns a result
in just a few seconds.
Is there someplace else that i need to change the timeout
setting? Or is there some other reason that this error
occasionally comes out?
Any help is much appreciated, thx!!
JaclynWhen it's intermittent, it can often be related to activity
on the server at the time the query is running. You'd want
to check locking, blocking and also check for data, log file
size changes that can contribute to timeouts (e.g. with
autogrow, autoshrink, manually growing or shrinking files)

[ODBC SQL Server Driver] Timeout Expired - How to fix

I am running SQL (Selects and Deletes) against a large
table in a database and am getting Timeout Expired. I am
using Enterprise Manager (Right Click on Table and select
Query). Is there a setting that I need to change to allow
a long running query? It works fine in the SQL Query
Analyzer.
SELECT COUNT(*) AS Expr1
FROM CallDetailThe timeout is a property of the connection to the server. Select your
instance in the Enterprise manager, select properties. Then on the
connection tab change the timeout. (Zero means infinite)

Analyzer rather than Enterprise Manager (see http://www.aspfaq.com/2455)?
You could kludge it up by increasing your timeouts, but this is like
bandaging a fever.

[ms sql] How to add new table to merge replication ?

Hi,
How to add new table to merge replication ?

When I do this in Enterpriise Manager i got an error:

Line 466
RAISERROR could not locate entry for error 20085 in sysmessages.

The handy thing with that procedure is that you can open it up and
look down to the line number, and read the comments, and maybe get an
idea of what the problem is, even if the error message is missing.

Strangely, I can't find it raising 20085 at that line number - on SQL
2000 SP 4. But at that line, there is a check that all articles
contain a column marked with the rowguidcol property (and raising
error 20086). So, is that what's wrong with your table?

[Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC]The requested instance is either invalid or not

I have this instance running, on a server. I can connect to it using SQL
Query Analyzer as well as SQL Enterprise Manager.
But when I try to connect to it using SQL Server JDBC it gives error,

I havent changed anything in Java code it is still the same. It was working
fine earlier. Can any one help?
I had similar problem with SQL Analyzer too but I could fix it using

With JDBC SP2, I can only reproduce this behavior if I have incorrectly
specified the instance name in my code. What is the name of your instance,
and can you post the code snippet that reproduces the problem? You
mentioned using cliconfg.exe to fix a similar problem with Query Analyzer.
Please run this tool again and verify that there are no aliases that point
to an invalid instance name as well.

I keep getting the above error when i run a sql from my web page. The query runs fine in enterprise manager. What is worng . Please help.

[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Invalid object name

From Enterpise Manager I create a user, giving all available rights. I have created a DB and set this user to be everything for it (except deny). I create tables as this user on the above DB. When I try to access these tables with an app using ODBC, the specific error appears.
Please assist fellas - situation critical.
Thanx.Refer to this KBA (http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=http://support.microsoft.com:80/support/kb/articles/Q218/9/95.asp&NoWebContent=1) to resolve the issue.|||Thanx for the info but it didn't work.|||If you created the objects as the user, then they are owned by the user, and will be named [ownername].[objectname].

If your sql code does not specify a ownername sqlserver assumes dbo ownership, and your objects don't exists as dbo.[objectname].

Either specify the owner name when you reference the objects,
or instead of granting all individual rights to the user just grant it dbo access to the database. Then any objects it creates will be dbo owned and will not need to be fully referenced.

[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver] Timeout expired

I am getting this error when I try and look at the Top 1000 records of a view
that I have created, in Enterprise Manager. If I copy the SQL for the View
into Query Analyzer, it returns results fine (in approx. 2 minutes). In the
Enterprise Manager Properties Advanced window, I have set Query timeout to
both 0 (never times out?) and 60000 (100 minutes?) to no avail. Any
suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
What is the exact error number and message? There are several types of
timeouts. If you are not specifying the correct parameter, it will continue
to timeout on that type.
Sincerely,
Anthony Thomas

[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver] Timeout expired

I am getting this error when I try and look at the Top 1000 records of a view
that I have created, in Enterprise Manager. If I copy the SQL for the View
into Query Analyzer, it returns results fine (in approx. 2 minutes). In the
Enterprise Manager Properties Advanced window, I have set Query timeout to
both 0 (never times out?) and 60000 (100 minutes?) to no avail. Any
suggestions would be greatly appreciated.What is the exact error number and message? There are several types of
timeouts. If you are not specifying the correct parameter, it will continue
to timeout on that type.
Sincerely,
Anthony Thomas

value to 0 and you are still getting the message, then you are probably being
blocked by current processes and are getting a LOCK TIMEOUT (which is really
a Lock Wait timeout). You do not have the ability to modify the Lock Timout
setting through EM; however, you can through Query Analyzer.
The Properties, Advanced Window does not exist for SQLEM. There is a
Properties, Connections, Remote Connections area for the currently selected
database, but that property is a timeout setting for RPC queries, not SQLEM
DMO.

as far as SQLEM is concerned (ie: I won't use it to display views, I'll use
QA instead).
I had initially thought that if I could resolve the timeout issue in SQLEM,
then the same issues in getting data into MapPoint, Excel, etc. through an
ODBC connection could be resolved as well.
Now at least, I can focus my efforts on getting the View data into
MapPoint/Excel etc.
Thanks again Anthony.

[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified

trying to install sql server2005 on a windows 2003 server box.

getting msg below at the sql server . i looked at other posts on trying to uninstall SQL Native Access Client and norton antivirus. i could never find the snac on the add - remove programs and this server does not have a virus protection program yet.

here's the history of the installs on the server:

wanted to test a 2005 upgrade so:

1) installed sql server 2000 then sp4 then restored some databases to it - all OK

2) tried to upgrade to sql 2005 but ran into problems and left it at that.

had a disk drive crash on the d drive so lost the installs but not the operating system

when the drive was replaced, left alone for a while

then wanted to test a straight 2005 install

1) removed the broken 2005 attempt

2) removed the 2000

3) installed 2005 and got the error on the subject line:

TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Setup

SQL Server Setup could not connect to the database service for server configuration. The error was: [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified Refer to server error logs and setup logs for more information. For details on how to view setup logs, see "How to View Setup Log Files" in SQL Server Books Online.

i've gone through as many of the forums that i can and have tried several things - like uninstalling 2005 and installing pieces and parts but but nothing seems to work.

Thanks!

It sounds like the SNAC version you have might be corrupt or incompatible.

Go to Add or Remove Programs and find the listing for "Microsoft SQL Native Client". Remove this component.

Then try the install again.

Thank you so much for replying. last attempt was to install just the sql server commonent - no others like analysis services or integration services.

i looked at the add / remove programs both before, during and after the sql server database services failed attempt and the add/remove has never shown a program called MS sql native access client (SNAC).

when i start the install, the installing prerequisites window shows the two components that will be installed: snac and the sql server 2005 setup support files. the snac goes to a green arrow almost immediately while the 2005 setup files takes a few seconds. i dont know if that helps or not.

the add remove programs just has:

microsoft .net framwork 2.0|||

It definatel looks like the problems is the "Microsoft SQL Server Native Client" layer. At this point your machine thinks that it is already installed but the install is broken.

Follow the directions in the following article to clean up the machine and then try again.

uninstall manually - did the following (shows issues with some of the directions)

it said to delete the local security groups. but i never could figure out how to do. the article it mensions didnt (at least to me) show how to delete. so i just went on|||

i went out to the website and downloaded the .msi file for snac. it was slightly different from the .msi that came on the DVD (3511k vs 3516k).

the dvd version when i clicked on the msi file just returned me back to windows explorer.

the snac from microsoft's website executed and finally installed the snac.

the install worked perfectly after that.

thanks for your help

Actually that was a good work around as downloading a newer version would have forced the install to run again where as in the previous case it was failing quickly becuase it thought it was laready installed.

Glad you got you machine back.

Hi,

I've been handling SQL Server upgrades for many years. The most dangerous path for an upgrade is to directly upgrade 2000 to 2005 (or 7.0 to 2000). That's because you create the risk of destroying the databases on the existing server and causing data loss.

The best approach embraces the fact that we typically upgrade a windows server when the mfg warranty on the hardware has expired. So, you have a new box and windows server. If you don't, the store the backups on another resource (disk, tape, flash drive, etc...) and copy from or restore from that resource. Rebuild the Windows server or uninstall SQL Server 2000. (I would have fresh windows to insure the best chance of success.)

Install SQL 2005 & configure on the new W03 SP1 server. migrate the users. (this worked easily with 2K but MS has hosed that functionality in 2005 from what I can see; you must use a script they provided that is flaky. You will need to manually create the users it fails to migrate.) Backup the dbs on 2K, shut down 2K on the old machine and restore the dbs to 2005. associate the users with the logins.

Now you have a fullly upgraded database server and your databases are unhosed. This may not be elegant but it guarantees the MS upgrade process won't destroy your databases or bring down your business for days.

If you have a completely hosed system, then rebuild the system (and the drives) and follow the steps above to a successful conclusion.

Sounds like an error in the connection string.
Maybe the string is invalid or maybe the server isn't set up to allow sql server authyentication and it is using that.|||thanks, but every settings is by default, what can I do then ?
