The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

  • The Grade of the Solution
  • The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
  • The Number of Author and Expert Comments
  • The Number of Experts Contributing
  • The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Problem with Simple Log Shipping

Asked by TRAININGBSC in MS SQL Server

Tags: , ,

Hi,

I have the following problem. I am trying to log ship between two standard SQL 2000 servers. I have installed SP_ShipLog on the primary server, in the master database, and sp_applystandbylog on the secondary server in the master database.

When I run the sp_shiplog from the primary server, the log.bak gets copied correctly to a share on the secondary server. However, when the job on the primary server trys to apply the log to the secondary server's database (which is read-only and set up accept the application of transaction logs), I get the following message:

Executed as user: domain1\troutSQL. ...roup\mssql\TransLogs\TEST_20060525_1037_LOG.BAK [SQLSTATE 01000] (Message 0)  BACKUP LOG successfully processed 0 pages in 0.372 seconds (0.000 MB/sec). [SQLSTATE 01000] (Message 3014)
