msdtc failure mark2

  • select * from [remote_linked.server].db.dbo.table . This works fine but when I embed any statement into a proper distributed transaction it just hangs. I have all the correct syntax so I assume it's something to do with the msdtc's themselves. Any ideas what this might be. Thanks

  • here's the error message. The operation could not be performed because the OLE DB provider 'SQLOLEDB' was unable to begin a distributed transaction.[OLE/DB provider returned message: New transaction cannot enlist in the specified transaction coordinator. ]OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'SQLOLEDB' ITransactionJoin::JoinTransaction returned 0x8004d00a].

  • Can you give a bit more specs about your configured environment?

  • Is the MS Distributed Transaction Coordinator service running on the remote server?

  • both sql 2000 servers in same w2k domain using same domain service account for sql server service and sql agent service. Interestingly it doesn't make any difference if I use the domain service account or the local system for the MSDTC. Which should you use?
