Problems in Replication over a dialup ISDN link

We have a Multimaster Replication setup with a Remote Database connecting to the MDS site over a dial up ISDN line at pre determined intervals.
At the time of initial setting up of the two Masters the remote machine was physically located on the LAN and everything was working fine with database links from both databases fully functional and all tables replicating their data without any problem.
After the remote machine was transferred out of the LAN to its remote location it is observed that once the remote machine dials into and is authenticated by the LAN Router we are not able to connect to the remote database from any of the machines on the LAN and hence the MDS cannot push its data to the remote machine. The remote machine can however push its data to the MDS site and is able to read data from the MDS machine on the LAN. The IP Address has also been fixed for the remote machine when it dials in and this has also been hard coded into the TNSNAMES.ORA files.
The TCP/IP is working fine with all machines including the remote machine being able to ping each other.
Is there any special configuration required to be done either on the remote machine or the MDS machine to enable machines on the LAN to access data on the remote machine and also enable the MDS machine to push its data to the remote machine when it connects over a dial up connection.
Thanks

Can you telnet from the LAN machines to the remote machine on the LanRouter? Confirm that you can ping,telnet,ftp directly to the remote machine, then tackle database connectivity. If you can telnet, then check the database link and check whether it uses a service name or has a hard-coded connection description. What error is being returned when you attempt the connection? The error message hopefully will help you narrow down the problem.

Canon 860 Series (Pixma) Printer Problems with OSX 10.8 (Mountain Lion) – links to Canon Support Site with Drivers and Software with install tips

After spending several hours sorting out Canon Pixma OSX problems here are my thoughts:
Canon 860 Series (Pixma 868) Printer Problems with OSX 10.8 (Mountain Lion) – links to Canon Support Site with Drivers and Software with install tips
Problem:
- New imac and MacBook Pro 2012 (OSX 10.8.2) had a problem using Canon Pixma 868 printer on network and would not scan or print using Canon Pixma software (Pixma MP Navigator 2.1 & Photo Print), which has advanced scanning and photo printing functions.
- When I connected the canon printer to my imac, OSX 10.8.2 automatically downloaded and installed drivers for Canon 860 series printer. I could then add the new printer (select ‘apple menu’ / ‘system preferences’ / ‘print and scan’ / “+”) and printer would work while connected via USB but could not get to print or scan over network wifi.
- The original Canon 860 Series CD does not work with 10.8 and the manual / online instructions did not make sense (as based on CD install).
Solution:
1) Install Canon Printer Drivers and Software (from official Canon site)
Go to canon support site, review FAQ, then download and install following Pixma 860 Series software & drivers for OSX 10.8 (links see below). The version I downloaded is in brackets but check for updated version. Full instructions are below.
Canon 860 Series Drivers & Software for OSX 10.8 Mountain Lion:
The base software and drivers needed for using Canon 860 Series on Mac OS X 10.8 (USB) are
1 Printer Driver
(Canon MX860 series CUPS Printer Driver Ver. 10.67.1.0 (03-Aug-2012))
2 Scanner Driver
(Canon MX860 series Scanner Driver Ver. 14.11.4a (03-Aug-2012))
3 Network Tool
(Canon IJ Network Tool Ver. 4.1.0 for Intel Mac (27-Dec-2012)
Canon Software for using advanced printing and scanning functions (while connected to network)
4 Solution Menu

Downloads or FAQ
If you have problems installing the software under 10.8, see the FAQ on Canon site. You will need to allow software installs from “unidentified developers by using “Control” Key or by changing your system preferences)
2) Check Canon Printer and Software Working while connected via USB
Once you have downloaded and installed drivers and software and restarted computer, check that the printer and Canon Pixma software (Pixma MP Navigator 2.1 & Photo Print) are working via USB. Open the Canon IJ Network Tool App (Applications / Canon Utilities /IJ Network Tool / Canon IJ Network Tool App) and make sure you can see the Canon MX 860 series (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) and that it shows the correct SSID Wifi settings (under the Canon IJ Network Tool App ‘Setup menu’). This is normally done as part of the automatic install but worth double checking
3) Add new network printer using ‘apple menu’ / ‘system preferences’ / ‘print and scan’ / “+”).
After you have checked USB printing turn off printer, unplug the USB cable and shutdown the Canon IJ Network Tool App.
Then turn the printer back on and wait 30s. Then add a new printer using ‘apple menu’ / ‘system preferences’ / ‘print and scan’ / “+”). Once you select “+” (add new printer), wait 10-30s for the Wifi Networked Canon MX 860 Series printer to appear in the new window eg Canon MX 860 series (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) (Kind: “Canon IJ Network”)
DO NOT ADD THE MX 860 SERIES BONJOUR SCANNER (the Bonjour Scanner is the built-in software, is not needed and often appears first on the add printer list). The Canon scanner can be accessed used through the MP Nav EX Ver. 2.1.3 software (which has much better functions)
You will now have two Printer Canon MX860 (USB) and Canon MX860 (Wifi / Network). Set the Canon MX860 (Wifi / Network) as default and test print and scan
If the Wifi Networked Canon MX 860 Series printer does not appear, check the printer and make sure that the printer can see the wifi network. On the printer select Menu / Settings / Device Settings / Lan Settings / WLAN Setting List. It should say WLAN Active, identify the SSID and have an IP address
If the printer can not see the Wifi Network, plug the USB cable back in, then open the Canon IJ Network Tool App (Applications / Canon Utilities /IJ Network Tool / Canon IJ Network Tool App). Make sure you can see the Canon MX 860 series (xx.xx.xx.xx.xx.xx) and that it has your SSID settings (under setup), if it has this info, restart the computer and the printer and try again

Hi, thaks for response, meant to post as a discussion (not question), wanted to save others time if they get the same problem

Problem with replication based on materialized view

Problem with replication based on materialized view...
Given:
1. Source: S-1
2. Targets: T-1, T-2
3. DB links: from T-1 to S-1, from T-2 to S-1
Required replicate table TBL on S-1 to T-1, T-2 via db links.
On S-1 was created materialized view log with PK on TBL. On T-1, T-2 were created mat.views as "on prebuilt table refresh fast on demand". In case of get "ORA-12034: materialized view log younger than last refresh" or initial load - perform complete refresh. Initial load on T-1 takes about 1 hour, on T-2 - about 12 hours. Refresh is executed via job with minutely interval. If refresh is running then it is not performed.
Problem: after initial load on T-1 performs fast refresh, but on T-2 raised ORA-12034 and complete performs again.
What's wrong?

34MCA2K2, Google lover?
I confess perhaps I gave a little info.
View log was created before MV.
It was the first initial load.
No refresh failed.
No DDL.
No purge log.
Not warehouse.
There is no such behavior for MVs on another sites.
P.S. I ask help someone who knows what's wrong or who faced with it or can me follow by usefull link.
P.P.S. It's a pity that there is no button "Useless answer"

Problems starting Replication on large databases - SQL 2012

Hi all,
I have been battling SQL Server for a week trying to get replication up and running, now I realize that most probably I am doing something wrong and I hope that one of you can help pointing me in the right direction.
I want to start replication of a big (180GB) database in my lab environment and every time the end result is errors of the type "The row was not found at the Subscriber when applying the replicated command. (Source: MSSQLServer, Error number: 20598)".
There are more than one database to be replicated and the smaller ones (<= 4GB) have started without problems, a medium database of 21GB had one similar error and has been running for a few days since I found and inserted the missing data in the subscriber
DB.
A couple of facts:
- I have set up the distributor as a remote distributor since the publishers are mirrored databases.
- I assume the distributor setup is OK since all the replicated databases are taking the same 'path' and the smaller ones are working.
- The distributor and the subscriber are set up on the same server.
- All in all the following procedure takes about 3.5-4 hours.
- The database is running in Full Recovery mode
- All log backups on the publisher are turned off for the duration.
Here's what I do:
On the publisher
Create the publication and add all the articles

@upd_cmd = N'SCALL sp_MSupd_dbo__MigrationLog'
GO
-- MANY more "EXEC sp_addarticle"....
On the publisher
I recompile the subscription SPs since I had problems with them once.
I use the output from the following statement:
USE Zaragoza;
EXEC sp_scriptpublicationcustomprocs @publication=N'Zaragoza_Full';
On the publisher
I backup the database & log
BACKUP DATABASE Zaragoza TO DISK = 'E:\Backup\Zaragoza_FULL.bkp' WITH INIT, STATS=5;
BACKUP LOG Zaragoza TO DISK = 'E:\Backup\Zaragoza_LOG.bkp' WITH INIT, STATS=5;
On the subscriber
Copy the backups from the publisher
CD /D E:\Backup
COPY /Y \\NS-LAB-DB-38-mirror\Backup\Zaragoza_FULL.bkp .
COPY /Y \\NS-LAB-DB-38-mirror\Backup\Zaragoza_LOG.bkp .
On the subscriber
Restore the database and log backups
USE [master]
GO
RESTORE DATABASE Zaragoza_Sub
FROM DISK = 'E:\Backup\Zaragoza_FULL.bkp'
WITH NORECOVERY, REPLACE, STATS=5,
MOVE 'Zaragoza' TO 'I:\mssql_repl\Zaragoza_Sub\Zaragoza_Sub.mdf',
MOVE 'Zaragoza_log' TO 'I:\mssql_repl\Zaragoza_Sub\Zaragoza_Sub_log.ldf';
GO
RESTORE LOG Zaragoza_Sub
FROM DISK = 'E:\Backup\Zaragoza_LOG.bkp'
WITH RECOVERY, STATS=25;
GO
On the subscriber
Remove all triggers since I noticed that they interfered with the replication SPs
USE Zaragoza_Sub;
DECLARE @Trigger nvarchar(100),
@SQL nvarchar(2000);
DECLARE curTriggers CURSOR
LOCAL FAST_FORWARD FOR
SELECT DISTINCT tr.name TriggerName--, te.type_desc TriggerType, ob.name TableName, tr.is_disabled, c.text

The worst part is that this is only a LAB system, when I apply this to Live I will have to deal with a 24/7 environment with 10,000+ transactions a day, so downtime is a total No-No.
If you are missing any details do not hesitate to ask, I will gladly provide all the details I have.
Have a great day

Hi Ashwin,
I have tried a few things these last couple of days and here's where I'm at.
I looked through the publisher database for the missing row so I could just copy it over but the row was nowhere to be found. After talking to the developers I found out that the table in question has a clean-up job that deletes records when they are finished
- OK, no problem, the replication should take care of that.
When I then look at the trace from the Distributor I find a bunch of records where the ID of the missing row is used. However, I find it peculiar that the replication first does updates to a record, then deletes it only to continue doing updates afterwards.
A sample from the Trace will explain better:
The SPs are
sp_MSupd_dboMessageDialog => This SP tries to do the failing UPDATE on the table, the second to last parameter is the RowId in the table (1075152)
sp_MSdel_dboMessageDialog => This SP tries to DELETE from the table, the only parameter is the RowId in the table (1075152)
There is one other SP in the replication of this article (table) and it is called sp_MSins_dboMessageDialog and it should be used for inserting records into the table. However it is never called.

Correct me if I'm wrong but this seems a bit weird. Why don't I see any INSERT to create the row again after the DELETE?
For the time being, and since this is a test system, I added the parameter "-SkipErrors 20598" to the Distribution Agent and restarted the agent. The replication started by skipping 20 records with that error and then continuing to work fine, as
suspected. I will have to verify with the developers and testers to see if all the data is still available.
Hopefully you will have some great insight into this matter and be able to explain what is happening.
Cheers!

SQL PULL Merge Replication over web - totally unreliable?

Hi,
We have problems performing SQL PULL merge replication over the web. Most of the time it works fine, but periodically we experience issues as described below. Our application uses SQL Express for subscribers and we have our own C# RMO code for
the agent. We have eliminated our application as the source of the problem by setting up a full SQL Server as a subscriber and using the built in agent. It experiences the same problems.
1. Unable to download a snapshot.
After reinitializing a subscriber, the snapshot will partially download and will then suddenly stop with the error:
    The connection with the server was terminated abnormally
There is no obvious timeout issue, the error typically occurs as soon as one of the .bcp files is about to be downloaded. It's often the same .bcp file that has the problem, but not always so there is no consistency.
The only solution is to continually retry until the download eventually succeeds. Recreating the snapshot before retrying seems to improve the chances of a successful sync.
2. Unable to perform a normal sync (i.e. an update, rather than a full snapshot)
An attempt to perform a sync results in the following information being logged:
    The upload message to be sent to Publisher 'SERVER2' is being generated
    The merge process is using Exchange ID 'F82F1A56-A81A-4786-A469-7A76259F9ED8' for this web synchronization session.
    No data needed to be merged.
    Request message generated, now making it ready for upload.
    Upload request size is 1895 bytes.
At this point the sync simply stops doing anything. There are no errors, the agent still appears to be running, but nothing else happens.
We typically experience this problem once every few weeks. Reinitializing a subscriber does not help, the same problem occurs. The only solution is to recreate the snapshot and then to reinitialize the subscriber. This then requires the
subscriber to perform a full sync which takes around 45 minutes for our dataset.
I am aware through online searches that others have experienced similar issues with SQL replication over web. Are there any practical solutions to these issues, or is SQL replication over web simply broken?

Hi Brandon, I noticed a post from you back towards the end of last year where you said you were giving up on it. Did you ever get it resolved? If not, did you identify a viable alternative solution?
We need to replicate a SQL database to mobile tablets over 3G. We've invested a lot of time and effort trying to make this solution work and to find that even using straight SQL server to SQL server has the same issues is disconcerting.
One possible option is that although we currently use merge replication, that was really just a bad design decision taken early on. We only perform one way replication, all our articles are flagged as one way only, server down to clients. I have
considered maybe moving towards transactional replication but unless I'm 100% certain I won't hit the same kind of issues, it really isn't viable to invest the time and effort.

ISDN Link questions

Hi there,
I have a couple of questions about the ISDN Link:
is it possible to pair the SX10 with the ISDN Link?
Is it possible to use the ISDN Link for more than one device? i.e. paring the devices via LAN instead of using a dedicated connection.
The scenario should be: two rooms, one equipped with a SX20 and one with an SX10; both should go in ISDN via the ISDN Link, obviously not at the same time.
Thanks in advance for your reply
Paolo

Hi,
1) Isdn link cannot be paired with SX10
https://www.google.com/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&ion=1&espv=2&ie=UTF-8#q=sx10%20isdn%20link
2) You can use the ISDN link with as many supported devices as you`d like, but only one at the time. You cannot have a C60 and EX90 at the same time
You can pair it over LAN.
If you want more than one device you would need a ISDN Gateway

i have just subscribed for a monthly billing for my acrobat pro XI, the problem is i have clicked on the link on the email that have sent me to activate it but its still not allowing me to acess this and see my PDF's, how to i activate my new license?

Can you explain the problem in more detail - "not allowing me to access" isn't clear to me. If you get any errors, please give the full wording. If you just don't seem to have any useful functions under TOOLS, make sure you are NOT still running Adobe Reader.

Problem sending mail over GPRS/EDGE

problem sending mail over GPRS/EDGE
i am in thailand right now with my iPhone 3G 16 GB (italian, no SIM-lock, 2.2). my problem: the iPhone does not send emails via GPRS/EDGE of local AIS mobile provider (there is no 3G in thailand right now). each time i try, i will get a prompt saying 'cannot send mail, the connection to the outgoing server "mail.gmx.net" failed'.
in germany, i use a contract SIM from o2, in thailand a prepaid SIM from AIS. i have configured 2 german pop mail accounts on my phone (gmx.de, o2online.de). receiving and sending email work fine on WLAN (everywhere, also here in thailand) and in germany on 3G/EDGE/GPRS. internet works everywhere, too. so, configuration seems to be okay. for each account, i use the same (smtp) sending server for all networks (ie i do not change configurations, using mail.gmx.net and pop.o2online.de). for a test, i changed smtp server to the AIS proprietary server mail.cscoms.com, but no change in behaviour.
so, any ideas how i can get my iPhone to not only receive but also send emails via GPRS of AIS?
thank you!

ok. i found the solution.
The problem is not in the iphone, the problem was DNS resolution in the server side.

Safari Crash - Problem with doodle (planer) app - doodle web links cause safari to crash with a very strange message "Error - Please make sure Safari is not used in Private Modus" (translated from german) No Privat Modus buttom in ios 7 safari settings!

Safari Crash - Problem with doodle (planer) app - doodle web links cause safari to crash with a very strange message "Error - Please make sure Safari is not used in Private Modus" (translated from german) No Privat Modus buttom in ios 7 safari settings! Works fine with an older Safari Version. Web link, call doodle app. You could see the website in the backround working but safari crashes after clicking on the error window. Any suggestions?

Turn off Private Browsing.
Tap "Private" on Safari Screen to disable Private Browsing. When top of screen is white, Private Browsing is off.

Error( No Device detected) is showing between SX20 & ISDN Link

Hi Team,
we have SX20 & ISDN Link, I have done all configuration in SX20 & ISDN Link but when i search the device in SX20 (peripherals option) for making the pairing between both system than sx20 shows that "No device detected" so i need to your expertise for this resolved this issue.
SX20 Version- TC7.1.1
ISDN Link Version-IL1.1.1
Thanks
Pooran

Would this work for the same issue, but on an EX90?
EX90 Version- TC6.3.0.3d8e7d1
ISDN Link Version-IL1.1.1.2c65b7d
Note: on the isdnlink itself it says "SystemUnit State ParingStatusText: "No connection with [an IPv6 address]"". However, it said it paired. Also, when you go to Config->Peripherals in the web console of the EX90, then ISDN Link, "Status: Inactive", "Mode: Unknown", and the aforementioned IPv6 address is coming up here as well.
IPv6 has no ip address/subnetmask/dgw or anything. Dhcpoptions for this is off, and set to static. unless theres another way to turn off IPv6 entirely.

Problem At Replication

Hi
I Have 2 Columns In Source Site And Target Site ( Data Type = Number(18,5) In Both Of Them) , When I Insert A Data ( Example : 0.00004 ) In Source Site , I See ( 0.00000 ) In Target Site , While I Have The Other Columns With This Format In This Table , And They Haven’t Any Problem In Replication.
Can You Help Me?
Thanks

Hello,
Did you modify the Replication table on the Publisher, for example, added or changed a filter on the table?
If a filter is added or changed after subscriptions have been initialized, you must generate an updated snapshot at the publisher and reinitialized subscribers.

Video Conferencing over Low speed WAN links

Hi there,
Can somebody explain possible point-to-nultipoint video conferencing solution over low speed WAN links ?
( I have central site and about 20 remote sites - hub and spoke configuraition)
a. What is the minimum BW requirement
b. If using Cisco Video advantage at users desktop how do we select the proper MCU at the central site ?

Buffer 15 to 30 seconds. Make sure to tell them there will be
a long load time. There really isn't much you can do besides
that.

Hi Maastricht2014,
Until and unless you remember the password to your old email address, you will not be able to access the eBooks as those eBooks are only authorized with your old email address only.
The only workaround or alternative to access your eBooks will be to contact the eBook vendor and ask them to migrate the eBook from your old email to the new one.
Hope that Helps!
