MDW Upload failing on SQL 2012

I've configured MDW data collection job on SQL 2012 server and the repository server is on SQL 2008 server. But the Upload job is failing on login failure error. The SQl 2012 agent job is taking domain\servername$ to run the job, even i change the account
to another domain account, it still uses the same account to connect.
Is this expected behavior? is there any workaround?
Thanks
Jay

Hi Jay,
According to your description, you can post the error messages for analysis. In addition, it seems that your SQL Server Agent account (domain\servername$) on SQL Server 2012 has no privileges to access the Management Data Warehouse (MDW) database. By default
the data collection upload job will run as the SQL Server Agent account, you need to make sure that the SQL Server Agent account has access to the MDW database if it has been configured on a remote server. To ensure this access, you can create a
SQL Server Agent proxy account and add it to the dc_proxy database role for the msdb database.
For more details, please review the following link:

Hi friends,
i have tried to install ms sql 2012 on windows 8.1 pro 64 bit but it got failed due to the following error 1406 Could not write value to key \SOFTWARE. Verify that you have sufficient access to that key, or contact your support personnel..
I had run the set up file as administrator. I have ony one user account on my laptop. I have seen in the regestry about permission of user. There is full control to the user. I have also tried the solution related to this issue that are available in
this forum and other.
I have also attache the detail.txt log file here
So i am heartily requesting you guys if you have the solution then please post your solution as soon as possible.
Thanks in advance!!!

Looks like this is a permission issue with account you logged in in your operating system or account if any you chooses to run you SQL Server installation . Or for executing setup file try using run as administrator.

SQL 2012 enterprise service pack 2 fails to install

Hi,
I have installed SQL 2012 sp2 x64 onto the main service manager 2012 database, but it fails on the datawarehouse SQL server. Both are going from SP1 to SP2. Servers are running windows server 2012 sp1 x64.
On the datawarehouse server it gets so far and then just displays a message of completed, with all the other fields blank.
The text file for the Summary of the installation has been copied below:

Hello,
Open the errorlog file on the following path C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\Log. There
you will find a more descriptive error.
I received that error before. The workaround I used is contained on the following article:

Hope this helps.

SQL 2012 SP1 fails to complete, Repair Install fails

Somewhere, SQL 2012 stopped running. This is developer copy. I believe also that SP1 was trying to install and found that SQL Engine was not running. In attempts to repair, I use the DVD and the repair process.   But that stalls/dies
because SP1 is still not completed in install. Deadlock. I was attempting to repair, restore Master but cannt get pass the SP install hang. Any thoughts on how to stop SP1 install, avoid hang and use DVD repair install?

SQL 2012 installation for Failover Cluster failed

While installation of SQL 2012 on FOC validation fails on "Database Engine configuration" page with following error:
The volume that contains SQL Server data directory g:\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\DATA does not belong to the cluster group.
Want to know how does SQL installation wizard queries volumes configured with Failover Cluster. does it:
- Enumerate "Physical Disk" resources in FOC
- does it enumerate all Storage Class resources in FOC for getting the volume list
- or it depends on WMI (Win32_Volume) to get volumes ?
The wizard correctly discovers volume g:\ in its FOC group on "Cluster Resource Group" and "Cluster Disk Selection" page. but gives the error on Database configuration page.
Any help in this would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance

SQL 2012 install fails with 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object.'

Hi, I'm trying to install SQL 2012 RTM Enterprise on a Windows 2008 R2 single node cluster.
The installer starts goes through some checks and then fails with the message 'Object reference not set to an instance of an object.' It happens while the small 'wait while...' dialog box is
showing, another window pops up briefly (I think the feature selection window - can't really tell as it doesn't draw before disappearing). Then the ‘Object reference not set’ message comes up.
From the summary log file..

Hi guys
Trying to run this package on SQL 2012 agent and getting below error . No more details I could find so far.
The step did not generate any output. The return value was unknown. The process exit code was -1073741819. The step failed.
About Package - Its connecting to different version (2000,2005,2008,2008R2,2012) servers and putting Jobs information into one Database table.
Any workaround or fix ?
Thanks
Please Mark As Answer if it is helpful. \\Aim To Inspire Rather to Teach

New package or one that used to work? Connecting how? How does it poll?
On the surface it is an error from a memory space of the binary/non-managed code, so nothing can be really concluded based on what you decided to share with us.
Arthur My Blog
So Same package is working fine from my local machine which has SQL 2008 R2 and SQL 2012 installed. I am trying to push the package on server which has sql server 2012 Installed .
I don't see any error .
I ran package manually from server using SQL Data tools and ran successfully...

complains and says "invalid file". So i think it's reading the file, doesn't like something in there, then it kicks out this erroneous error that means nothing. I've looked in the event logs, see nothing.
Has anybody seen this before? It not, is there any other log file I can look at that will tell me specifically what might be wrong?
.\setup.exe \ConfigurationFile=ConfigurationFile.ini
The specified value for setting 'MEDIALAYOUT' is invalid. The expected values are:None, Core, Advanced, Full
THX

Can you make sure that the config file is valid and comment lines are not text wrapped.

SQL 2012 DB Engine [Login failed: Account locked out] alerts not received from SCOM 2007 R2

Dear Experts,
In our SCOM 2007 R2 environment SQL 2012 DB Engine [Login failed: Account locked out] alerts not received but we are receiving the following alerts fr the DB instance.
1. Database Backup Failed To Complete
2. Login failed: Password expired
3. Log Backup Failed to Complete
4. Login failed: Password cannot be used at this time
5. Login failed: Password must be changed
6. IS Package Failed.
Why we are not receiving the "Login failed: Account locked out" ? Customers are asking the notification email alert for this Rule even I have checked the override settings everything is enabled by default same as above rules.
What can be the issue here ?
Thanks,
Saravana

Hi,
Could you please check the Windows security log for (MSSQLSERVER) event ID 18486? The rule should rely on this event.

SQL 2012 and later will fail to publish a database for any tables with a default constraint that references a user defined function.

Script will create database, 3 database objects and publish.
The error is due to the generation script to create the conflict tables that is not stripping out default constraints that reference a UDF.
As you can see below, the failure is on the generation script for the conflict table.
The conflict table should be a bucket table that shouldn’t enforce data integrity.
See how the default constraints for the columns someint and somestring were stripped out of the generation logic however the default constraint that utilizes a UDF persist and uses the same object name that was used on the production table (The
bold line) , this occurs if I explicitly name the constraint or let the system generate the name for me like in the example posted.
  The only way I could see getting around this right now is to drop all default constraints in the system that uses a UDF, publish then add the constraints back which is vulnerable to invalid data and a lot of moving
steps. This all worked with SQL 2000, 2005, 2008, 2008r2, it’s stopped working in SQL 2012 and continues to not work in SQL 2014.

More information, after running a profile trace the following 2 statements, the column with the default on a UDF returns a row while the other default does not. This might be the cause of this bug. Is the same logic to generate the object on
the subscriber used to generate the conflict table?

Trying to install SQL 2012 Std on Win 8.1Pro - Fails right away with no log

When trying to install MSDN SQL 2012 Std 64 or x86 on Windows Pro 8.1, i get an error immediately with no information posted to the summary log. Screen shot of error. Just Modal dialog with "SQL Server Setup" and a Big red X in it.
Any help would be appreciated.

Hello,
Please enable .NET Framework 3.5 using Control Panel -> Programs and Features. If you have it already enabled, please repair it using
the following tool:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=30135
Open the Command Prompt as Administrator and run the following command:
winmgmt /verifyrepository
The result of the command should be “WMI Repository is consistent”.
SQL Server cannot be installed on a compressed or encrypted drive.
You need to run SQL Server setup with a Windows account with administrative privileges.
Hope this helps.

Upgrading Sql 2008r2 (Hosting Ssrs For Scom) To Sql 2012 Failed On "uses custom security/authentication extensions/..."

Hi,
my question is: what custom extensions does SCOM uses for the SSRS?
When I look on the SSRS forum I'm advised to check who made these extensions and what use they have.
Help would be appreciated.
Greetings,
Pim

Hi,
From your description, my understanding is that you have a question when you upgrade SQL 2008 R2 to SQL 2012.
Since this is an issue about SQL server. I suggest you contact SQL server support engineer for more assistance and resource. For your convenience:

File opening throws RBS exception after migrating to a new farm with sql 2012

We have successfully migrated the SP 2010 -sql 2008 r2 wss_content to a new sp2010 farm with sql 2012. The old and new farms are configured for RBS - FIlestream.
In the new farm when tried opening a document we see the below exceptions in event viewer. The documents open fine for admin users and fail for others. I have verified all the permissions on the blob store file location and it looks good. Users have no
issue uploading new files over and below the set the file size limit.
Any suggestions on how to debug this would be great, do we need to rerun the .migrate() to realign any of the blob file references, we played around setting the max file size couple of times.
Event vwr on DB server -

Migration - its a content db backup/restore/mount to new farm with sql 2012 from sql 2008 r2
Okie here are the results after we tried to narrow down the issue to few steps-
This issue happens on documents that are already existed in the content db prior to migration. we picked two docs from one library. DOC A and DOC B of close to same size..
DOC A - file size 64k, rbs max size set to 1mb.
Regular User and SPAdmin both can open fine, check out n check in successfully.
no entries made in event vwr of front end and DB server
DOC B - file size 64k, rbs max size set to 1mb
SPAdmin - can check out n open fine, but cannot check in back - file not available error
Regular User - cannot open the file - file not avialable at the url
          Both users can view doc properties at lib level..
Errors found in event vwr of DB server -
"FILESTREAM file named with GUID '00311100-0000-51eb-f3a8-0b387bc5c5ce' that belongs to
FILESTREAM data file ID 0x10001 does not exist or cannot be opened."
and
"The operating system returned the error '2(The system cannot find the file specified.)' while attempting 'FsDoHandler::CreateFile' on 'H:\Blob_Store\a06953ae-6f49-43b1-9c2d-fefb13bda9fe\1c581a4a-b450-4143-bc3d-8d419b49b0fb\0000eb20-000066ff-0002'
at 'fstrman.cpp'(2075)."
I incline to believe that the references for documents in blob store could have been corrupted for some documents during the migration. Any new docs uploaded to content or to blob are all accessible fine.
I'm not sure running .migrate() will re align the blob file references? Any ideas on how to effectively get this resolved..

Unable to get SQL Server Agent to run after installing SQL 2012 Standard with SP1

I am unable to get SQL Server Agent to run after installing SQL 2012 Standard with SP1. Log message is as follows:
Attempting to load library 'xplog70.dll' into memory. This is an informational message only. No user action is required.
Failed to verify Authenticode signature on DLL 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL11.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\Binn\xplog70.dll'.
Error: 17750, Severity: 16, State: 0.
Could not load the DLL xplog70.dll, or one of the DLLs it references. Reason: (null).

Hi JFriedley,
According to your error message, there might three reasons for this issue.
xplog70.dll is corrupt, you need to check if you have any SQL Server running on same file version and same production
edition. If xplog70.dll is corrupt, you can copy it from the new server where agent is running fine to your problematic server.
Native client not installed properly. If you try applying any latest Service Pack or Cumulative Update then check if the SQL Server Agent can start, if that also doesn’t solve issue then try to reinstalling SQL Server Native client from SQL Server setup
files.
There is a similar issue about error 17750, you can review the following article.

Issue with SSIS Custom Components - 64 bit SQL 2012

Hello All,
Our SSIS packages built on SQL 2008 R2 make use of some custom components. These custom components are installed as part of an MSI. The dll's are copied over to the Windows/assemble [GAC Folder] and also to the Program Files(x86)/SQL Server/110/DTS/* folder.
The installation does not copy the dll's to the 64 bit program files folder.
X:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\110\DTS
These packages are executed via SQL Agent jobs on a 64 bit SQL server and there does not seem be any issue.
Now we are upgrading our servers to SQL 2012 and we have a new installer for the custom components as well. The new custom components use .NET Framework 4.0 and when installed the dll files get copied over to the Ms.NET 32 bit runtime GAC folder and also
to the SQL Server DTS Folder in x86. The upgraded packages work only when we set the runtime mode to 32 bit. The packages successfully executes within the 32 bit dtexec utility, but when we try to run the same package using a 64 bit dtexec utility the
process errors out with a component failed to load message. The package moves data between two SQL Server instances.
The custom components have always been built for 32 bit runtime. I can run a older package through the dtexec utility (from the 64 bit folder in program files) and it does work without any issues. After the upgrade the package will only execute on
a 32 bit utility. can someone help me understand this issue?
Regards, Dinesh

Thank you Arthur.
i think we got the answer as well, as the .NET framework 3.0 installer copied the files over to the C:\windows assembly the dtexec utility [32 bit/64 bit] was able to load the components.
Now with the new installer the files are copied to specific runtime gac folders as Arthur has mentioned. The 64 bit utility does not find the dlls in the GAC whereas the 32 bit version will find them.
Regards, Dinesh
