Hi,
This may occur when there is a mismatch between the Report Server URL entered on the SSRS Server Location window for the Report Deployment Wizard and the SSRS Web Service Virtual Directory for the Reporting
Services Configuration Manager.
Use the following steps to resolve the issue:
Launch the Reporting Services Configuration Manager on the server hosting SSRS
Select Web Service URL
Copy the value entered in the Virtual Directory textbox
Paste it after the last forward slash in the Report Server URL textbox in the Report Deployment Wizard
Continue on with the deployment
In addition, we may need to check you default web server IP is 'all unassigned', and ping the machine and see what default ip it has assigned.

Yan Li

Use a SQL 2012 database server with Reporting Services 2008?

Hello, we have a SQL Server 2008 R2 Reporting Services Standard server with the reporting databases running on a SQL Server 2008 Standard database server. I would like to upgrade the database server to SQL Server 2012 before I upgrade the reporting server.
Can I run SQL Server 2008 R2 Reporting Services against a 2008-version database running on a SQL 2012 database server? Thanks for your help.

Hi Nicole
Thanks for your posting.
Are you asking if we can connect from SSRS 2008 r2 to a database sitting on SQL Server 2012. Am I right?, please ignore me if I misunderstood your question. If that is your question
then I think you will be able to using BIDS 2008, I have created A database on SQL Server 2012 and I use that database table inside my SSRS 2008 R2 dataset. I can even think that you can use a database of compatibility level of 2012(110) as well
Many thanks

How to send mail in PL/SQL using exchange server details.

Hi Experts,
Business user has provided us the exchange server details to send mails.How can I send mails thru PL/SQL using exchange server details.

user595740 wrote:
Business user has provided us the exchange server details to send mails.How can I send mails thru PL/SQL using exchange server details.Basic answer - not easily.
Oracle supports the standard application protocol SMTP - it does not support a proprietary protocol like that used by Exchange that only works on the Windows operating system. It however provides you with the flexibility to code this yourself.
If you for example use Microsoft MAPI (Mail Application Programming Interface), you can integrate it with PL/SQL using the external procedure (extproc) feature of Oracle.
In a nutshell, extproc enables you to create PL/SQL wrappers for public DLL calls. I posted sample code that demonstrates this in {message:id=2271919}. The sample code is for calling a DLL interface on HP-UX, but the concept is identical on Windows.

MS SQL Server 2008 server is experiencing blocking

All,
The DBA & I are at a loss as to what could be causing an intermittent alert to be produced against the MS SQL Server 2008 server. The following email is what I've been provided:
SQL Services Alert: COMPANY.com - COMPSQL01 is experiencing blocking
spid BSPID DatabaseName    Login                          LastBatch        Runtime (Alert@:1) Command

404 0     ORAEPM_HP_VISIO 102.16.4.126\ORAEPM_HP_VISION 2015-04-06 10:50                  7 (@P1 int)SELECT * FROM HSP_ACTIVITY_LEASE WHERE ACTIVITY_ID = @P1
403 404   ORAEPM_HP_VISIO 102.16.4.126\ORAEPM_HP_VISION 2015-04-06 10:49                  8 (@P1 int)UPDATE HSP_ACTIVE_SERVERS SET LAST_ACTIVE_TIME = GETDATE() WHERE SERVER_ID = @P1

From what I've been told, it appears that SPID 394 is the offending one but it appears to be clashing with SPID 404 and causing the blocking to occur. Both appear to be automatic processes executed by Planning to monitor\track the status of the various Planning applications in operation.
As background info, the following applies:
- All servers are MS Windows 2008 R2 Enterprise SP1 (64-bit);
- Hyperion Planning is v11.1.2.3.502;
- The RDBMS platform is a MS SQL Server 2008 (64-bit) instance;
- ORAEPM_HP_HPBUD is the RDBMS database accessed by a custom-developed Planning application while ORAEPM_HP_VISION is the RDBMS database for Oracle's Vision Planning application;
Has anyone ever encountered - and resolved - such an issue? If yes, how?
Many thanks in advance,
JBM

Can you pin point a particular TopLink query tied to the " FETCH_APICURSOR* " call in the app and post how it is being created?
My guess is that the application is specifying the TopLink query object to return a cursor or stream and not closing it in all cases, or keeping them open for a long period - did you say they were leaking, or is it just that a large number are open at a time leading to performance problems?
This streams+cursors are described in the TopLink docs here
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E21764_01/web.1111/b32441/qryadv.htm#CJGJBHGJ
or the 10g docs here:
http://sqltech.cl/doc/oas10gR3/web.1013/b13593/qryadv010.htm
If this is the case, you might want to use a different strategy such as pagination instead of cursors, described here:
http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E17904_01/web.1111/b32441/optimiz.htm#CHDIBGFE

I can't link to an I series (IBM AS400) server from my sql server 2014 server (64 bit) -- but yes can link on sql server 2005 (32 bit)

I have an I series (IBM AS400) server linked "OK" to a sql 2005 sql server (32 big). I copied the link script (but changed credentials) from the sql server 2005 link and attempted to run it in the sql server 2014 server (on win 7 64
bit). There are no complaints from SSMS when I run the script, but when I try to query a table I get this error message:
OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "CWMPDTA" returned message "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed".
OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "CWMPDTA" returned message "[IBM][System i Access ODBC Driver]Key value in connection string too long.".

Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "CWMPDTA".
Here is the script (from the sql server 2005 (32 bit)) I ran on the sql server 2014 SSMS -- is there anything I need to change? How can I get this I series server to link to my sql server 2014 server?

Thank you for this reply. I went to the link and selected the option for DB2s and ran the install. Then I started up SSMS. I copied the same script as above, and it executed successfully. But when I try to run a query against
a table in a database on this linked sever -- I get this error message:
OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "CWMPDTA" returned message "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed".
OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "CWMPDTA" returned message "[IBM][System i Access ODBC Driver]Key value in connection string too long.".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 8
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "CWMPDTA".
Do I need to change the line containing -- @provider=N'MSDASQL', maybe?
this is the query I'm running:
select TOP 10 * from CWMPDTA.T9S.CWMPDTA.INSKU
The same exact query runs fine on the sql server 2005 linked server. Is there something I need to configure?

Unqueriable SQL Azure DB Server

I have a SQL Azure DB server that is in a "bad" state. The error I get in the console is:
Some features are not currently available for the server '<server name>' in subscription '<sub id>' since the server information could not be retrieved
at the moment. Please wait a few minutes and then try this operation again.
The databases for server
<server name> located in region <region>
for subscription <sub id> could not be retrieved.
Please wait a few minutes and then try this operation again. For more information about Microsoft Azure service availability, visit the Microsoft
Azure Service Dashboard.
The two primary issues are:
1. If I attempt to delete it in console, it fails
2. If I attempt to delete it from the PowerShell console, it hangs my console
I simply want to delete it...any suggestions?

Hi,
which region your SQL data base is located. Hope it is not in the below mentioned region.
North Europe, North Central US, West Europe, Central US and Australia East. We are experiencing the downtime in these regions.
Request you to try after some time by following these steps in the link

Migrate SharePoint's SQL Server (physical) to another SQL Server (virtual server)

Infrastructure team is migrating domain\SQLSERVER db to new ‘XYZ’ Location. Also they are moving these DBs to virtual server. Currently these are physical DB servers.
I am trying to keep the server names as same ‘SQLSERVER ‘, but IP address may change. Does it have any impact on MOSS environment and what configuration changes need to be done, if needed???
Note: - i am using alias for my share point 2010 server .
SERVER INFO
2 WEB SERVER , 1 APPS SERVER
NINTEX Workflow Database without Sql "Alias"
No any Customization only 2 site colleciton with Nintex workflow.

You can move all content databases to another SQL server, but moving Configuration DB will have impact on the farm. You can make it work using SQL Alias created on SP server using cliconfg.exe utility but some of the services will break on your farm. As
far as I know It is not recommended to move config db from one sql server to another.
You can check below link for referrence on moving databases from one sql to another sql:

Restore SQL on another Server

Hi All,
I have an ECC 6 running on SQL 2005, Windows Server 2003 R2, I want to restore the same DB to another ECC 6 server, and connect it to the restored SQL DB. for that purpose I prepared the new machine with new ECC 6 installation and then i restored my SQL DB to this new machine, but ECC wont start, it turn green for a while but then into yellow and then stopped.
Can anyone help regrading to the above, are there any procedures i shall follow after data restore so i can make ECC work?
Thank you all,

are you running your SAP instance using a domain user or local user?
If domain user - is the user SysAdmin in SQL? Or at least granted full DB OWNER access to the SAP DB?
If local user - have you verified the user has access to the SAP DB? If the user is there, the DB SID may not match up, you may need to run a sp_change_users_login to sync up the DB SID.
Also, post the dev_ms, dev_disp, and dev_w0 files from your work directory.

SQL 2005 Linked server to Oracle append

Hi Oracle Exprets,
i am using an SQl 2005 linked server too pull data from specific table in Oracle data base.
the thing is i have to pull data daily and append this data to the exsisting table.
here is my code :
EXEC sp_tables_ex @table_server ='LINKED_ORA',@table_schema='Myschema'
INSERT INTO dbo.ARS20091
SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(LINKED_ORA,
'SELECT
TROUBLEID,
CREATE_DATE,
DATE ''1970-01-01'' + CREATE_DATE / 24 / 60 / 60
CREATEDATE
FROM CLIENT_TROUBLE
WHERE CREATE_DATE between ''1230768001'' AND ''1239043005''');
GO
this code works but i have to change the date daily and do a complete insert in a new table.
Is there a way to append data daily ?
thanks

Hi sanjay,

I want to move DTS packeges from sql server 2000 server to other server SQL2008R2

Kindly provide help for move DTS packeges from sql server 2000 server to other server SQL2008R2

Do you have a good technical reason for not wanting to use the Migration Workbench?
Given that it's free and does a hell of a lot of the work for you, why wouldn't you use it?
Other than that, I would say you would be on your own...
cheers,
