Database Engine won't start - master DB log file issue

I had a server patched and reboot yesterday and now the SQL services won't start because it's saying it can't find the master log file. I checked the path and the log file is present. Any suggestions.

That did it. Not sure why that switch was there.
It might have been intended, but it was added incorrectly. -g512 is a legal switch. Then again, since you have 64-bit SQL Server, it is not likely that you will needed.
(The -g switch increases the area known as memtoleave, which is the virtual address space (VAS) not used for the buffer cache. On 32-bit SQL Server you may need to increase this area from the default of 256 MB. On 64-bit SQL Server the full physical memory
is available for VAS; on 32-bit it's only 2GB.)

ANI Server fails to start
This problem occurs when you:
Start ANI Server, the server is up for sometime and shuts down with RC as -2 and Info as ANI Server failed to load from the database.
Workaround:
Stop the Daemon Manager. Re-initialize ANI database and start the daemons.
Enter the following command to reinitialize ANI database:
/opt/CSCOpx/bin/perl /opt/CSCOpx/bin/dbRestoreOrig.pl dsn=ani dmprefix=ANI
You should not be using this interface to start any CiscoWorks services. Your statup parameters look okay. Either your ANI database is corrupt, or your transaction log is corrupt.
First, set the CiscoWorks Daemon Manager service to Manual, and reboot the server. When the server reboots, delete NMSROOT\databases\ani\ani.log if it exists. Then run:
NMSROOT\objects\db\win32\dbsrv9 -f NMSROOT\databases\ani\ani.db
After that, set the Daemon Manager service back to Automatic, and reboot again. See if the ANI database engine starts. If not, you will need to reinitialize your ANI database with the command:
NMSROOT\bin\perl NMSROOT\bin\dbRestoreOrig.pl dsn=ani dmprefix=ANI
/* Style Definitions */
table.MsoNormalTable
{mso-style-name:"Table Normal";
mso-tstyle-rowband-size:0;
mso-tstyle-colband-size:0;
mso-style-noshow:yes;
mso-style-parent:"";

mso-para-margin:0cm;

mso-pagination:widow-orphan;
font-size:10.0pt;
font-family:"Times New Roman";
mso-ansi-language:#0400;
mso-fareast-language:#0400;
mso-bidi-language:#0400;}
We have done reinitializing:
1. Delete NMSROOT\databases\ani\ani.log
NMSROOT\objects\db\win32\dbsrv10 -f NMSROOT\databases\ani\ani.db
After that done
NMSROOT\bin\perl NMSROOT\bin\dbRestoreOrig.pl dsn=ani dmprefix=ANI
After reinitializing ANI database took 1 hour to start, output of pdshow command was
INFO: Daemon manager is processing other tasks in the queue. Please try again later.
In RME there is another problem:
JRM Service could be down. Check whether JRM services are running .
Tried to resolve by reinitializingRME
NMSROOT\bin\perl.exe NMSROOT\bin\dbRestoreOrig.pl dsn=rmeng dmprefix=RME
But did not help.
We are attaching some log files...
Thanks in advance...

You are most likely seeing a port conflict between LMS and the Windows RM service. You can either shutdown the Windows Remote Management service, then restart Daemon Manager, or do the following:
* Shutdown Daemon Manager
* Remove ctmregistry* from NMSROOT/MDC/tomcat/webapps/rme/WEB-INF/lib.
* With Windows Remote Management still running, restart Daemon Manager, and EssentialsDM should skip tcp/47001 because it is already in use.

The Microsoft Access database engine cannot open or write to the file \\fileserver\db\access.mdb

Hi,
I have Windows Server 2012 with SQL 2012 Standard SP1. I am using linked server, and Access Database Engine 2010 Redistributable to access my database file made in Microsoft Access (.mdb) from network file server.
EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedserver @server = N'MyLinkedServer', @srvproduct=N'MyLinkedServer', @provider=N'Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0', @datasrc=N'\\myfileserver.mydomain.com\files\mydatabase.mdb'
My SQL service is running with domain service account MYDOMAIN\SQL1$ , i have added Full control for file share and NTFS permission on my file server folder (C:\Files).
When I open (as domain admin with UAC elevated permissions) on my DB server SQL Management studio, I can browse tables and everything works.
The problem is, if I open SQL management studio (as domain admin with UAC elevated permissions) on my File server or any other computer, when trying to browse my linked server i got error:
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio
Failed to retrieve data for this request. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.Sdk.Sfc)

I do not have any other program using my access database, and user has full control. I am trying to use in security mode - "For a login not defined in the list above, connections will be made without using a security context", i have also tried all four options.
I am confused becouse it works from SQL server but from any SQL client domain member computer/server it does not work.
I have same problem in another environment where I have Windows Server 2008 R2 and SQL 2008 R2 SP2.
Please help.

NTFS must be fine since it works from same server using same accounts.
As I understand, adding my access file to Access trusted location could be a problem. I have tried now to add my access database file location to trusted locations for user which is my SQL service user (Windows Service - AD managed service account MYDOMAIN\SQL1$)
and my test user which I use to connect to sql server as a client from sql management studio. (Account is Domain Admins and have full permissions on SQL server also)
I have added this .reg:
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Access\Security]
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Access\Security\Trusted Documents]
"LastPurgeTime"=dword:01592874
"DisablePromptOpenNetworkTrustedDocuments"=dword:00000000
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Access\Security\Trusted Locations]
"AllowNetworkLocations"=dword:00000001
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Office\14.0\Access\Security\Trusted Locations\Location0]
"Description"="My file server"
"AllowSubFolders"=dword:00000001
"Path"="\\\\myfileserver.mydomain.com\\files\\"
I have done this for SQL service account user and my personal test account as I said. I have tried to logoff and restart sql service and all servers also.
The same problem still persists.
Anyway, thank you for giving me a hint.

The Microsoft Access database engine cannot open or write to the file in Report Builder 3.0

I am trying to build a report in Report Builder 3.0. I created the Data Source to point to my Excel file and the Data Set. I drag a couple of fields on to the canvas and then choose Run. I get the error: "The Microsoft Access
database engine cannot open or write to the file. It is already opened exclusively by another user". I am using the Excel driver. Why am I getting this message? How can I fix this?

No, now I am getting the error message again. It is quite long:

J2EE Engine won't start after PDK Deployment

Good morning everybody,
I tried to deploy the PDK a couple of days ago. The first file (pdkcontent6090.sca I think) deployed fine in about 15 minutes, the second one (pdkjavadoc6090.sca) however didn't. It ran three hours before I stopped the deployment. There were no error messages in any of the logfiles.
Now my Server won't start. I've been looking through the logfiles and the only entry that shows anything wrong is in server.0.log:
<i>#1.5#000255AB8B3B001D00000006000009D40003F9B6E70BE132#1118

Communication configuration is incomplete. No data transfer possible until corrected.#</i>
Everything apart from that looks normal. I can't find any documentation on what this means or what I can do
to get everything back to running again...
Any ideas? We're on WAS 6.40 and EP6SP9.
Thanks!!

How to Recover database from old backup and full archive log file

Hi Oracle expert!
I met problem when restore my oracle database.
In my case:
- My database version: 10.2.0.2
- I have a database full backup (01-Nov)
- I have all Archived log file from (01-Nov -> 05-Nov)
- My database drop in 05-Nov with disk error (no datafile, no redo..).
- I have no any RMAN backup from (01-Nov -> 05-Nov)
How can i restore my database to 05-Nov?
Thanks

Hi Chinar.
When i used RMAN flow as your step, but i met the problem!
- After recover database i select sequence#, applied from v$archived_log;
--> it apply newest archived log that i had.
- but when I select Data from table created between 01-Nov to 05-Nov, it not found!
Not the same way the step:
SQL> RECOVER DATABASE USING BACKUP CONTROLFILE UNTIL CANCEL?
It apply newest the same archived log i had table created between 01-Nov to 05-Nov.
How can i do with RMAN to recover my table?That is not possible,if your all available archive logs applied using rman or through sqlplus(recover database using backup controlfile until cancel) and one of these logs contain your table then there are not any problems.So there are not any difference between recovery using rman and user managed(using sqlplus),but there main matter is applying all archive logs.So first check through rman list copy of archivelog all or list backup of archivelog all and identify there in rman repository is any information or not about these logs.

Printing all messages when WEBLOGIC starts in its log file

Hello i am following all these steps
Step 1. Copy log4j-1.2.9.jar & wllog4j.jar under domain_root/lib folder.
Step 2. Create log4j.xml and drop it under domain_root folder. If you have log4j.xml inside the application(EAR/WAR), I would recommend to move outside EAR/WAR as
changing severity (log level) would require re-deployment. To avoid this, we can move log4j.xml into domain root folder but again the server needs to be bounced.
But there is a fix.
Step 3. Login to weblogic server console. Go to Servers -> Admin Server-> Logging.
Click on advanced mode. Change the logging implementation from JDK to Log4J.
Click save.
Step 4. Activate changes. Re-start the admin server.
This should enable log4j and should write logging into log file mentioned in log4j.xml or properties file.
Hang on! There is a catch here. Say now I want to change the log level from DEBUG into WARN or ERROR.
How do i do?
We go to log4j.xml and change the level.
Now how does this change take into effect? It needs bouncing of the server.
I have given below sample log4j.xml for your reference...
log4j.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" ?><!DOCTYPE log4j:configuration SYSTEM
"log4j.dtd">
<log4j:configuration>
<appender name="CONSOLE" class="org.apache.log4j.ConsoleAppender">
<layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
<param name="ConversionPattern"
value="%d [%t] %-5p %c - %m%n"/>
</layout>
</appender>
<appender name="FILE" class="org.apache.log4j.RollingFileAppender">
<param name="File" value="/log/myApp.log"/>
<param name="Append" value="true"/>
<layout class="org.apache.log4j.PatternLayout">
<param name="ConversionPattern" value="%d{ISO8601} %t %-5p %c{2} - %m%n"/>
</layout>
</appender>
<logger name="org.apache">
<level value="WARN"/>
</logger>
<logger name="org.springframework">
<level value="WARN"/>
</logger>
<root>
<level value="DEBUG"/>
<appender-ref ref="FILE"/>

</root>
</log4j:configuration>
I Followed all these steps , but finally i am getting an empty file myApp.log at specified destination , i want all log messages inside that file when WEBLOGIC starts , so what needs to be done for that

I guess the issue here is that somehow the log4j configurations are not getting picked up.
Please try adding the LOG4j configurations explicitly onto the classpath:-
set LOG4J_CONFIG_FILE=log4j.xml
set SAVE_JAVA_OPTIONS=%JAVA_OPTIONS% -Dlog4j.configuration=%LOG4J_CONFIG_FILE%
@REM set SAVE_CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%
set SAVE_CLASSPATH=%CLASSPATH%;C:\Oracle\Middleware\user_projects\domains\base_domain\config

Firefox 3.6.3 won't start with a particular file:///

I can do {"c:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe" file:///n:\911c\OwenShow\helphtm\ohelpfrm.htm} but I can't do the same thing in a windows exec; firefox runs and hangs-up in the background. I assume this is FF's problem because when I run firefox again after killing it, the file appears correctly; or if I run firefox, and then try the exact same exec process, it works (i.e., in a 2nd tab). And I think closing "Firefox won't start after update 3.6.3 downloads and installs" was ridiculous, since the supposed solution ENDED WITH A QUESTION and WAS NOT a solution. j.g. owen * email: [email protected] * web: http://owenlabs.org

And wonderful!
Updated OSX (10.6.5) - and then thought what the heck, I'll trying enabling Firefox Sync. And it worked - for a couple of days. Until I accepted the update for Firefox Sync (1.5.1) - and I am back where I started, nothing works.
I have no clue about this

I don´t know what to do, SMTP server parameters are rigth, bursting control file is also OK, original report with XML output ends OK with a pdf output.
Any ideas?

Log File Issue In SQL server 2005 standard Edition

We have database of size 375GB .The data file has 80 GB free space within .When trying to rebuild the index we had 450 GB free space on the disk where Log file is residing.The rebuild index activity failed due to space issue.added more space and got the
job done successfully
The Log file has grow up to 611GB to complete the rebuild index.
version :SQL server 2005 Standard Edition .Is ther a way to estimate the space required for rebuild index in this version.
I am aware we notmaly allocate 1.5 times of data file.But in this case It was totaly wrong.
Any suggestion with examples would be appreciated.

OK, there's a few things here.
Can you outline for everybody the recovery model you are using, the frequency with which you take full, differential and transaction log backups.
Are you selectively rebuilding your indexes or are you rebuilding everything?
How often are you doing this? Do you need to?
There are some great resources on automated index maintenance, check out
this post by Kendra Little.
Depending on your recovery point objectives I would expect a production database to be in the full recovery mode and as part of this you need to be taking regular log backups otherwise your log file will just continue to grow. By taking a log backup it will
clear out information from inactive VLF's and therefore allow SQL Server to write back to those VLF's rather than having to grow the log file. This is a simplified version of events, there are caveats.
A VLF will be marked as active if it still has an open transaction in it or there is a HA option that still requires that data to be available as that data has not been copied to another node yet.
Most customers that I see take transaction log backups every 15 - 30 minutes, but this really does depend upon how much data your company can afford to lose. That's another discussion for another day.
Make sure that you take a transaction log backup prior to your job that does your index rebuilds (hopefully a smart job not a sledge hammer job).
As mentioned previously swapping to bulk logged can help to reduce the size of the amount of information logged during index rebuilds. If you do this make sure to swap back into the full recovery model straight after and perform a full backup. There are
problems with the ability to do point in time restores whilst in the bulk logged recovery model, so you need to reduce the amount of time you use it.
Really you also need to look at how your indexes are created does the design of them lead to them being fragmented on a regular basis? Are they being used? Are there better indexes out there that can help performance?
Hopefully that should put you on the right track.
If you find this helpful, please mark the post as helpful,
If you think this solves the problem, please propose or mark it an an answer.
Please provide details on your SQL Server environment such as version and edition, also DDL statements for tables when posting T-SQL issues

Standby creating archives log files issue!

Hello Everyone,
Working on oracle 10g R2/Windows, I have created a dataguard with one standby database, but there is a strange issue that happen, and I'll need someone to shed the light to me.
By default archived log created from the primary database should be the sent to the stanndby database, but I found that the standby database has plus one archived log file.
From the primary database:
SQL> archive log list;
Database log mode Archive Mode
Automatic archival Enabled
Archive destination C:\local_destination1_orcl
Oldest online log sequence 1021
Next log sequence to archive 1023
Current log sequence 1023
contents of C:\local_destination1_orcl
1_1022_623851185.ARC
from the standby database:
SQL> archive log list
Database log mode Archive Mode
Automatic archival Enabled
Archive destination C:\local_destination1_orcl
Oldest online log sequence 1022
Next log sequence to archive 0
Current log sequence 1023
contents of C:\local_destination1_orcl
1_1022_623851185.ARC
1_1023_623851185.ARC ---> this is the extra archive file created in the standby database, should someone let me know how to avoid this?
Thanks for your help

SELECT FROM v$version;*

The standby database is a physical standby database (not logical standby)
Thanks against for your contribution, but I'm still not know why standby create and arhive files too?

Transactional log file issue

Dear All,
There have been issues in the past where the transactional log file has grown too big that it made the drive to limit its size. I would like to know the answers to the following
please:
1. To resolve the space issue, is the correct way to first take a backup of the transactional log then shrink the transactional log file?
2. What would be the recommended auto growth size, for example if I have a DB which is 1060 GB?
3. At the moment, the transactional log backup is done every 1 hour, but I'm not sure if it should be taken more regularly?
4. How often should the update stat job should run please?
Thank you in advance!

Hi
My answers might be very similar to geeks already answer, but hope it will add something more
1. To resolve the space issue, is the correct way to first take a backup of the transactional log then shrink the transactional log file?
--> If database recovery model is full \ bulk then tlog backup is helpful, and it doesnt help try to increase frequency of log backup and you can refer :
Factors That Can Delay Log Truncation
2. What would be the recommended auto growth size, for example if I have a DB which is 1060 GB?
Auto grow for very large db is very crucial if its too high can cause active vlf and too less can cause fragmentation. In your case your priority is to control space utilizatiuon.
i suggest you to keep minimum autogrowth and it must be in size not in percentage.
/*******Auto grow formula for log file**********/
Auto grow less than 64MB = 4 VLFs
Autogrow of 64MB and less than 1GB = 8 VLFs
Autogrow of 1GB and larger = 16 VLFs
3. At the moment, the transactional log backup is done every 1 hour, but I'm not sure if it should be taken more regularly?
---> If below query returns log_backup for respective database then yes you can to increase log backup frequency. But if it returns some other factor , please check above
mention link
"select name as [database] ,log_reuse_wait , log_reuse_wait_desc from sys.databases"
4. How often should the update stat job should run please?
this totaly depend on ammount of dml operation you are performing. you can select auto update stats and weekly you can do update stats with full scan.
