Once again, no records returned....

The following sproc returns no records in query analyzer, although it doesn't error out either. Last time adding the length to the end of the variable fixed this problem, but this time it's an integer type which doesn't accept a length. Any ideas?

------------------------------
CREATE PROCEDURE spUnitsbyUnitID
@.unitid int
AS

SELECT
E.camid, E.camname, E.cammodel, E.unitid,
D.contactid, D.Contactfname, D.Contactlname, D.Contactphone, D.Contactcell, D.Contactcompany, D.unitid,
C.videoserverid, C.videoservermac, C.videoserveruser, C.videoserverpass, C.videoservermodel, C.videoserverip, C.unitid,
B.radioid, B.radioip, B.radiomac, B.radioessid, B.radiouser, B.radiopass, B.unitid,
A.unitid, A.unitcity, A.unitname, A.unitalias, A.unitdeploydate, A.unitpickupdate, A.unitattatchedcams, A.unitenabled

FROM tbl_units as A

INNER JOIN tbl_radios as B ON A.unitid = B.unitid
INNER JOIN tbl_videoservers as C ON A.unitid = C.unitid
INNER JOIN tbl_contacts as D on A.unitid = D.unitid
INNER JOIN tbl_cameras as E on A.unitid = E.unitid

WHERE A.UnitID = @.unitID
GO
-------------------------------Are you sure that there are records in all 5 tables with the same unitid ? Using inner joins, you are limiting the result set to that scenario.

Jeff|||You are missing the OUTPUT keyword which is required for stored Procs returning none Numeric value. As per the previous post you can only use INNER JOIN if both tables are equal and the ANSI SQL OUTER JOIN limit is four because OUTER JOIN has default NULL condition but that may not work for HTTP applications because HTTP aplications are Stateless. Check out the MSDN link below.

Kind regards,
Gift Peddie|||Found the problem, 1 of the tables didn't have a test value entered in for the unitID. Thanks for the help!sql

OLE/DB provider returned message: Invalid authorization specification

Hello,
I'm trying to import a table from a MSDE database (databaseB) into a SQL
server database (database A).
Using to following sql statement:
insert tableA
select a.*
from openrowset(sqloledb,'Provider=sqloledb;Password=pw d;User ID=usr;Initial
Catalog=databaseA;Data Source=server', select * from [dbo].[tableB]') as a
I'm getting the following error:
[OLE/DB provider returned message: Invalid authorization specification]
[OLE/DB provider returned message: Invalid connection string attribute]
OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'SQLOLEDB' IDBInitialize::Initialize
returned 0x80004005: ].
Everything runs fine if I use integrated security!? The used usr/pwd is a
MSDE login account.
A UDL file connection test directly to the MSDE database runs fine.
Thanx!
CHU! Eric
Hello Eric,
I have reproduced the issue on my side. Based on my research, the following
command works well:
insert into tableA
SELECT a.*
FROM OPENROWSET('SQLOLEDB','sophietest\msdeinstance';'s a';'password',
'SELECT * FROM test.dbo.tableB ') AS a
GO
or
insert into tableA
select a.*
from
openrowset('sqloledb','Provider=sqloledb;UID=sa;PW D=password;Database=test;S
erver=sophietest\msdeinstance', 'select * from [dbo].[tableB]') as a
Therefore, I recommend you perform the following commands:
1. Make sure the Authentication Mode of MSDE is mixed mode.
The following article is for your reference:
INFO: MSDE Security and Authentication
http://support.microsoft.com/default...en-us;325022#3
2. Run the following command to test:
insert into tableA
SELECT a.*
FROM OPENROWSET('SQLOLEDB','<your MSDE instance name> ';'sa';'password',
'SELECT * FROM databaseA.dbo.tableB ') AS a
GO
Or
insert into tableA
select a.*
from
openrowset('sqloledb','Provider=sqloledb;UID=sa;PW D=password;Database=databa
seA;Server=<your MSDE instance name>', 'select * from [dbo].[tableB]') as a
Note:
1. You need to replace the <your MSDE instance name> with your MSDE
instance name.
For more detailed information about OPENROWSET, please refer to the
OPENROWSET topic in SQL Books Online(BOL).
I hope the information is helpful.

OLE/DB provider returned message: Deferred prepare could not be completed

I have 2 SQL servers. And in the first one I have added the second SQL as a Link Server. When I run an SQL statement on the linked server I get the following message.

Server: Msg 7202, Level 11, State 1, Line 1
Could not find server 'PROD' in sysservers. Execute sp_addlinkedserver to add the server to sysservers.
[OLE/DB provider returned message: Deferred prepare could not be completed.]

The SQL statement that I am runnins is

Select * from openquery(PROD,'Select * from PROD.GMS.dbo.qryDispCL')

But when I run only the SQL statement "Select * from PROD.GMS.dbo.qryDispCL" it works perfect. But I need to have the first statement running.

Please help. Your valuable feedback is greatly appriciated.

It's really strange... You can run this to check registered server:

EXEC sp_helpservers

If the server 'PROD' is not in the result, then run this to add it:

EXEC sp_addlinkedserver 'PROD'

Note: you may need to add login information for the 'PROD' server with 'sp_addlinkedsrvlogin'.

OLE DB provider "MSDAORA" for linked server "DBNAME" returned message "

Hi All,

I have a strange problem with one of my Linked server connections. I am connecting from

SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition (9.00.3042.00) to and Oracle 10g database using the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle. The connection works and I am able to select from all the Oracle tables except for 1 table. When selecting from this table I get the following error:

OLE DB provider "MSDAORA" for linked server "DBNAME" returned message "ORA-01476: divisor is equal to zero".

Msg 7330, Level 16, State 2, Line 1

Cannot fetch a row from OLE DB provider "MSDAORA" for linked server "DBNAME".

This probem happens if the table has rows or has no rows (empty table).

I have tried SELECT * and count(*) along with selecting a specific column from the table.

I can use SQL*plus from the system that the SQL database server running on it and select from the table using the same login/password that the linked server uses to rule out a permissions problem.

Any suggestions on what I can try next?

Thanks.

Did you try using Oracle's own oledb provider? MSDAORA is a legacy provider and not officially supported for Oracle 10g.|||

Yes I had tried that. Found the solution that worked for me:

Provider: used the Oracle Provider

Product name: Oracle

Data source: The database name in TNSNames.ora

And here is the important part. Under the Provider Options for the Oracle provider enable (check) the "Allow inprocess" provider option.

Regards,

Scott
