Replication Program Problem

  • Hiii,

    I have set a transactional replication. For some reasons Distribution agent fails . Hence am running a schedular program to detect the failure and able to get it.

    But my problem is, i do not know how to proceed after detecting the same.

    Do any one know how to write a program to start the distribution agent

    any help would be great.

     

  • Hi K,

    I'm not too sure if this will help but I had to setup replication on a few instances in here. At first I was getting a lot of difficulty on a machine that had multiple SQLServer instances on it. So i moved to single SQLServer instances. I was then getting problems transferring the data across. I eventually got it working, but the main things that you should check are username/passwords; agents running on both the dist and subscriber and that you have the right permissions on the distributing tables. I'm sorry I dont have any script but maybe this might start you off in the right direction.
