SQL Server 2008 R2 Transaction Replication Tracer Tokens always pending

On a new transaction replication publiciation/subscription, the tracer tokens I generate always show pending for publisher to distributor and distributor to subscriber. The log reader agent is running and last action continues to update. The
Performance column in the repl monitor shows Excellent with a 00:00:03 latency. Distribution cleanup, agent history clean up, and replication agents checkup all show job succeeded and a resent last start time and their running times are usualy around
a second or show 00:00:00. On the subscriber, the "view synchronization status" is being updated with number of transactions and commands being delivered. I can confirm that updates are making it to the subscriber database. On
the surface, everything apears ok but I'm bothered by the tracker tokens not working.
this is SQL Server 2008 R2 10.50.1600.1 - OS is Windows Server 2008 R2 SP1.

In this case run sp_replcounters at the published db to see if the log reader delivers commands from the published db to the distribution db.

SQL Server 2008 R2 - Adding Replication Components to an Existing Installation

Hi All
I have a SQL Server 2008 R2 instance that I need to install Replication components on.
I've been going through the appropriate wizard and selecting to upgrade an existing instance, the wizard recognizes the SQL Server that we have installed so that one is selected. On the next screen, I'd expect to see the feature selector with everything
we currently have installed selected and greyed out, however nothing is selected (except for BOL).
So in order to select Replication Components, I'd have to also select Database Engine, suggesting that a new SQL Instance would be installed. Not wanting to do this, I'm having to abort.
I've tried a number of different ISOs now (one I found lying around on the server), but I haven't had any luck. My only option now seems to be to recreate the instance entirely, but that being a last resort, I was wondering if anyone may have had some experience
with this problem?
I am running the installer with the highest level of Windows and SQL access, if that helps.
Thank you

Just to confirm when you try to install you select the option "Add features to an existing Instance of SQL" and below you see the instance name and you *Dont* see replication.
Now when you click next in the feature selection page you see replication as greyed out is that correct?
Regards, Ashwin Menon My Blog - http:\\sqllearnings.com
To confirm, the steps I'm taking are as follows:
Once all the Setup Support files have been installed, and the Setup Support rules have been checked (with no errors)
- At the Installation Type screen I select Add features to an existing instance of SQL Server 2008 R2. My server appears in the drop down as the only instance on this server. I see the list of installed instances too, and can confirm that Replication does
not appear in the Features column. I click next.
- At the Feature selection screen, the only items that are selected are Books Online, SQL Client Connectivity and Microsoft Sync Framework. No other features are selected and greyed out, where I would expect Database Engine Services, Analysis Services and
Reporting Services (among others) to be selected. Selecting SQL Server Replication at this stage results in Database Engine Services also being ticked, suggesting the wizard will add a new instance on this machine.
The only peculiarity that I've noticed is with the version number reported on the Installation Type screen, which shows 10.51.2500. Not the same as the version that is reported if I inspect object browser or I user the @@Version command. In fact, I believe
this version relates to MDS instead? This being said, our other production server reports the same version here, and I was able to install replication components here with no problem.
I hope this helps, I don't know if I can attach some images to my post to make it more clear? It's quite a difficult and unusual problem to explain!

SQL Server 2008 Dump Transaction

I used SQL Server 2005 before and used "DUMP TRANSACTION ... WITH NO_LOG" statement, i tried to do same thing in SQL Server 2008 and it doesn't work. How can i use it in SQL Server 2008?

The shrinking of TL process is changed in SQL Server 2008. You just need to
(a) set the database to simple recovery model
(b) Shirnk the file
(c) Set back to Full (If required). ie. If you are not taking TL backup let it be in Simple recovery model only

SQL Server 2008 R2 Replication - not applying snapshot and not updating all repliacted columns

We are using transactional replicating on SQL Server 2008 R2 (SP1) using a remote distributor. We are replicating from BaanLN, which is an ERP application to up to 5 subscribers, all using push publications.
Tables can range from a couple million rows to 12 million rows and 100's of GBs in size.
And it's due to the size of the tables that it was designed with a one publisher to one table architecture.
Until recently it has been working very smooth (last four years)) but we have come across two issues I have never encountered.
While this has happen a half dozen times before, it last occurred a couple weeks ago when I was adding three new publications, again a one table per publication architecture.
We use standard SS repl proc calls to create the publications, which have been successful for years.
On this occasion replication created the three publications, assigned the subscribers and even generated the new snapshot for all three new publications.
However, while it appeared that replication had created all the publications correctly from end to end, it actually only applied one of the three snapshot and created the new table on both of the new subscribers (two on each of the
publications). It only applied the snapshot to one of the two subscribers for the second publications, and did not apply to any on the third.
I let it run for three hours to see if it was a back log issue.
Replication was showing commands coming across when looking at the sync verification at the publisher and
it would even successfully pass a tracer token through each of the three new publications, despite there not being tables on either subscriber on one of the publishers and missing on one of the subscribers on another.
I ended up attempting to reinitialize roughly a dozen times, spanning a day, and one of the two remaining publications was correctly reinitialized and the snapshot applied, but the second of the two (failed) again had the same mysterious result, and
again looked like it was successful based on all the monitoring.
So I kept reinitializing the last and after multiple attempts spanning a day, it too finally was built correctly.
Now the story only get a little stranger. We just found out yesterday that on Friday the 17th
at 7:45, the approximate time started the aforementioned deployment of the three new publications,
we also had three transaction from a stable and vetted publication send over all changes except for a single status column.
This publication has 12 million rows and is very active, with thousands of changes daily.
, The three rows did not replicate a status change from a 5 to a 6.
We verified that the status was in fact 6 on the publisher, and
5 on both subscribers, yet no messages or errors. All the other rows successfully updated.
We fixed it by updating the publication from 6 back to 5 then back to 6 again on those specific rows and it worked.
The CPU is low and overall latency is minimal on the distributor.
From all accounts the replication is stable and smooth, but very busy.
The issues above have only recently started. I am not sure where to look for a problem, and to that end, a solution.

I suspect the problem with the new publication/subscriptions not initializing may have been a result of timeouts but it is hard to say for sure. The fact that it eventually succeeded after multiple attempts leads me to believe this. If this happens
again, enable verbose agent logging for the Distribution Agent to see if you are getting query timeouts. Add the parameters
-OutputVerboseLevel 2 -Output C:\TEMP\DistributionAgent.log to the Distribution Agent Run Agent job step, rerun the agent, and collect the log.
If you are getting query timeouts, try increasing the Distribution Agent -QueryTimeOut parameter. The default is 1800 seconds. Try bumping this up to 3600 seconds.
Regarding the three transactions not replicating, inspect MSrepl_errors in the distribution database for the time these transactions occurred and see if any errors occurred.

SQL SERVER 2008 R2 - REPLICATION BEGINNERS

Hi all Friends,
Am beginner to ms sql 2008 and i have installed sql Express edition and management studio and tried to do replication there some issues i have faced
1) Cant use my host as distributor
2) SQL server agent Edition is running
3)Cant create publisher also
May i know which edition supports for all replication ( Merge,Transactional,Snapshot)
Thankful to repliers

You do not mention what you are replicating to. SQL Server express can only be a merge replication subscriber. If you want to replicate to a SQL Server Standard Edition and above you will need to make the SQL Server Standard Edition server your publisher
and the SQL Server express edition your subscriber and then changes will move from the merge replication subscriber to the publisher and vice versa.
As the SQL Server Express client does not have SQL Server agent, you will need to do a push subscription from the Standard Edition, or run RMO, or a batch file which runs replmerg.exe on the subscriber. You might also be able to run web sychronization.
If the source and destination servers are both SQL Server Express editions you might want to use Sync Services.

SQL Server 2008 R2 and storage replication

Hello All !
On a Production site, I have a SQL Server 2008 R2 for a fat application. On a DRP site, I have the same SQL Server 2008 R2 fat application.
The production and DRP sites are interconnected with a physical SAN storage (synchrone replication). SAN LUNs are synchronous replicated (Data + logs).
In this case, is it necessary to keep logshipping beetween the 2 sites or the LUNs replication is sufficient ?
Thanks for advance for your ideas / help - Regards - Have a nice day ! RHUM2

<<In this case, is it necessary to keep logshipping beetween the 2 sites or the LUNs replication is sufficient ?>>
That question is impossible for us to answer, since we don't know your requirements (SLA etc). But if you re-phrase your question, we can give feeback with which you hopefully can make that decision:
What can log ahipping protect me from which SAN replication can't? I can think of a couple of things (others are free to chime in):
Corruption at the page level. SAN replication give you a binary image of the data. If a page is corrupt at site A, it will be corrupt at site B. Log shipping work by retorting transaction log backups.
Delayed log restore. If a problem happens at site A, you can decide to have delayed log restores at site be and restore a log backup until just prior to the accident.
Both above assumes that you know what you are doing have basically have planned for these things. But technically, they are examples of things that log shipping allows for.

Understand SQL Server 2008 R2 replication features for a reporting database

Hi, I am using SQL Server 2008 R2 and working on building a reporting database using transactional push replication and want to know the downside that we should aware of using this.
For instance, is the data always available to the users even when changes are being written from the publisher?
I am also interested in learning replication mechanism & internals. How should I proceed?
Thanks in advance........

Distributed transaction using linked server not working in SQL Server 2008 64 bit

Hi. I have had an issue trying to get distributed transactions to work in SQL Server 2008 using a linked server. The error message I get is
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI10" for linked server "pod1" returned message "No transaction is active.".
Msg 7391, Level 16, State 2, Line 3
The operation could not be performed because OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI10" for linked server "pod1" was unable to begin a distributed transaction.
My Environment:
Windows Server 2008 Enterprise 64 bit, SQL Server 2008 Enterprise 64 bit
Problem occurs with multiple different builds of SQL Server 2008 - I have been able to reproduce the problem with 10.0.1600.0, 10.0.1779.0 (CU 2), as well as 10.0.2531 (SP1)
I am aware that other people have had this issue and have reviewed all existing posts. I have verified that the MSDTC is configured correctly on both machines. I have also used DTCTester to verify that DTC is working correctly on all machines in question.
None of the mentioned resolutions has solved this problem for me.
I am not seeing this problem occur on my 32 bit test machines - it is only occurring if at least one of the two machines is 64 bit.

Hi All,
I realise that this topic may be a little bit out-of-date but if someone gets here from some search engine trying to find a solution for DTC problems, this MAY be useful.
So... I recently had the same issue, tried all the approaches described in KB and other articles, but it didn't help. Because my task to solve this was not of the highest priority I forgot about it for some time.
Today I was troubleshooting some other issue and, by accident discovered source of that first problem:
In the EventViewer I found Error entry logged by MSDTC saying:
"The local MS DTC detected that the MS DTC on vm-server1 (other machine name that also runs DTC - my comment) has the same unique identity as the local MS DTC. This means that the two MS DTC will not be able to communicate
with each other. This problem typically occurs if one of the systems were cloned using unsupported cloning tools. MS DTC requires that the systems be cloned using supported cloning tools such as SYSPREP. Running 'msdtc -uninstall' and then 'msdtc -install'
from the command prompt will fix the problem. Note: Running 'msdtc -uninstall' will result in the system losing all MS DTC configuration information."
So I followed suggestion and run:
msdtc -uninstall
msdtc -install
This solved my problems with DTC. Hope it will help someone.

Transact-SQL debugger not working in SQL Server 2008: "...debugger does not support SQL Server 2005 or earlier..."

I have recently installed SQL Server 2008. When I try to execute a query against an Access database, I receive this debugging error:
"Unable to start Transact-SQL debugger. The Transact-SQL debugger does not support SQL Server 2005 or earlier versions of SQL Server. (SQLEditors)"
Nor will the query execute; I get a transport-level error 0. Any thoughts?

Hi Davidmhjr,
>>Unable to start the Transact-SQL Debugger. The Transact-SQL Debugger does not support SQL Server 2005 or earlier versions of SQL Server. (SQLEditors).
Have you tried to restart the server once you have installed SQL Server 2008? As Naomi N mentioned please check the version of SQL Server you are using.
If you tried to connect to SQL Server 2005 from SQL Server 2008 SSMS, you would not be able to debug and get this error, it happens because T-SQL debugger includes both server-side and client-side components. The server-side debugger components are installed
with each instance of the SQL Server 2008 Database Engine. The client-side components are installed when you install the SQL Server 2008 client-side tools.
So it works with SQL Server 2008 only so far. Another way is you can triy to use SQL Server 2005 SSMS to connect to SQL Server 2005.
More information about configuration requirement to run T-SQL debugger as below, please refer:
There are no configuration requirements to run the Transact-SQL debugger when SQL Server Management Studio is running on the same computer as the instance of the SQL Server Database Engine. However, to run the Transact-SQL debugger when SQL Server Management
Studio is running on a different computer from the instance of the Database Engine, you must enable program and port exceptions by using the Windows Firewall Control Panel application on both computers.
On the computer that is running the instance of the Database Engine, in Windows Firewall, specify the following information:
•Add TCP port 135 to the exceptions list.
•Add the program sqlservr.exe to the exceptions list. By default, sqlservr.exe is installed in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10.InstanceName\MSSQL\Binn, where InstanceName is MSSQLSERVER for the default instance, and the instance name for
any named instance.
•If the domain policy requires network communications to be done through IPsec, you must also add UDP port 4500 and UDP port 500 to the exception list.
On the computer that is running SQL Server Management Studio, in Windows Firewall, specify the following information:
•Add TCP port 135 to the exceptions list.
•Add program ssms.exe (SQL Server Management Studio) to the exceptions list. By default, ssms.exe is installed in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE.
Hope it is helpful.

HELP ME!!! I have a problem regarding SQL Server 2008 R2 Replication! :((((

Good day!
I'm having a big problem in my SQL Server 2008 R2... I can't see the "Local Publication" under the Replication...
About not installing it, I guess that's not true because I checked all the features to install.
Is this a bug? Do I need to re-install my SQL Server 2008 R2? Or simply, do I need to do something simple without re-installing it?
PLEASE HELP....
See Link below:
http://oi59.tinypic.com/4jx3y1.jpg

None. This is a freshly installed SQL Server 2008 R2. After installing, All I did was create a database.
If you want to know how I did it, simply:
1. Open SSMS, connect to local server
2. Open Object Explorer
3. Expand your local server
4. Right+Click on the Database then clicked on to "New Database..."
5. Entered my database name then clicked "OK"

Msg 8631 Internal error: Server stack limit has been reached on SQL Server 2012 from T-SQL script that runs on SQL Server 2008 R2

I have an Script mostly that is generated by SSMS which works with-out issue on SQL Server 2008, but when I attempt to run it on a new fresh install of SQL Server 2012 I get an Msg 8631. Internal error: Server stack limit has been reached. Please look for
potentially deep nesting in your query, and try to simplify it.
The script itself doesn't seem to be all that deep or nested. The script is large 2600 lines and when I remove the bulk of the 2600 lines, it does run on SQL Server 2012. I'm just really baffled why something that SQL Server generated with very
few additions/changes AND that WORKS without issue in SQL Server 2008 R2 would suddenly be invalid in SQL Server 2012
I need to know why my script which is working great on our current SQL Server 2008 R2 servers suddenly fails and won't run on an new SQL Server 2012 server. This script is used to create 'bulk' Replications on a large number of DBs saving a tremendous
amount of our time doing it the manual way.
Below is an 'condensed' version of the script which fails. I have removed around 2550 lines of specific sp_addarticle statements which are mostly just copy and pasted from what SQL Management Studio 'scripted' for me went I when through the Replication
Wizard and told it to save to script.
