  • You must check your server name before create the publication, please check with @@SERVERNAME, the server name must be in the list.

    If the server name not in the list, you must add the server name with the "sp_addserver". For complete reference please follow the BOL.

  • Hi,

  • Could you please to specified the error message?

  • sql server could not configure database as distributor for database( i  am making distrubutor on my local database only)

    error 14114 (null) is not configured as distributor.

    i solved the error and recreated the remote server but stil now it is giving me error.

    the second error is the remote login not mapped.

     

    but i wanted to know that do i have to make the remote server of the subscriber database or the local database.

    and do i have to make the remote login on subscriber also.

    hope u understand.

  • Dear Raj,

    I'm sure that is because the servername, please refer to the BOL in the section sp_addserver

  • Dear Deni,

    I used to the below to create a linked server or remote server

     

    exec sp_addserver 'ipaddress' or computername

    EXEC sp_addremotelogin 'ipaddress or computername', 'sa', 'sa'

    GO

    EXEC sp_remoteoption 'ipaddress or computername', 'sa', 'sa', trusted, true

    GO

    EXEC sp_configure 'remote access', 1

    RECONFIGURE

    I wanted to ask u that do i have to create the remote server on the server which i will give as subscription database in the replication.

    secondly the remote user should be present on both the server.

    hope u understand.

  • I think the 'local' option in the sp_addserver must be specified, because you configure the replication in the local machine, right?

  • Hi,

    Now the error is as follows

    Error: 18483 : could not connect to server(server name) because distributor_admin is not defined as remote login at the server.

  • Now you add the user id (distributor_admin) to the remote server as a remote login

  • Hi Dear,

    I added the distributor_admin as remote login.

    But still i am deep in the hell.

    the Error is :

    error :21007 Cannot add the remote Distributor. Make sure that the local server is configured as a Publisher at the Distributor.

     

    hope i will be out of this hell

  • Have you looked through this KB article?

    http://support.microsoft.com/?id=321822

    When your deep in hell, the best thing I find is to roll everything back to the point where it's like nothing happened, then start over again.

  • Also, have you run SELECT @@SERVERNAME on both servers and verified that the name is not set to null?

  • Hi Phill,

     

    If u seen the discussion the u might have read then u might have seen that i am out of that problem.

    I means to say that if @@servername is null then i have not faced another error and so on.

    But thanx this doesn't helped me
