Distributed transaction failing in SQL server 2008

  • Hi,

    I have been trying to run a distributed transaction query from SQL server 2008 SP1 installed on Windows 2008 server from last 1 week. Other server is also with same configuration(SQL 2008 SP1+Windows 2008).

    I have configured all the MSDTC options in both the server. Firewall is disabled in both the server.

    I am able to create linked server and also ran the normal query.It worked fine. But if I am running same query with BEGIN DISTRIBUTED TRAN, I am getting error as:

    "OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI10" for linked server "sql-01" returned message "No transaction is active.".

    Msg 7391, Level 16, State 2, Line 2

    The operation could not be performed because OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI10" for linked server "sql-01" was unable to begin a distributed transaction.

    Query was cancelled by user."

    Also i have insatalled the hotfix provided by Microsoft for SQL 2008 SP1.

    For your information, I am doing all these setup on amazon ec2(cloud service).

    Please help me. Thanks in advance.

    Shailesh

  • Enable "remote proc trans" using sp_configure on all the servers.
