Transaction Replication

  • HI All

    Below is a Production Server Issue:

    1.Due to some reason , the transational replication set up on the server has stopped working .

    Initial Analysis revealed that certain tables and objects are missing from the Distributor dataase, eg:Merge_Sessions table.

    2.The Replication Monitor has stopped working .

    3.We are not able to delete the Publication thats on the server too. We get a message stating that cannot drop the objects that are missing.

    This server acts as a distributor and publisher.

    Question:

    What is the best way to fix this?

    Options that i have thought of:

    1. Restore the Distributor database from the backup and try to run replication

    2. If 1 fails , drop all the replication objects from the server

    3.Create a new Distributor database ,publication and try to run Replication

    Questions Again:

    1. What is the effect of doing the above 3 steps on the other databases present on the server?

    2. Is there any other better way to resolve this issue?

  • Is there a compatibility issue for nvarchar field between sql server 2008 r2 64 bit and sql server 2000?

    The replication is failing saying An error occurred during running the batc statement .

    Any ideas?
