In order to use the dll, you can do few different things. One is to use GAC and register it. If that doesnt work then second option is you can copy the dll into folder “%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\MSRS13.MSSQLSERVER\Reporting Services\ReportServer\bin” and that works perfectly.

You must enable the webclient service on the client machine or install it from windows component. Once that is setup then you can access the sharepoint files as an UNC path.

How to get table size in a database? https://aumtechhub.com/how-to-get-table-size-in-a-database/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=how-to-get-table-size-in-a-database Thu, 11 Nov 2021 04:54:04 +0000 https://aumtechhub.com/?p=280 This query will return size of each table in a sql database. This is a great way to monitor growth of a database and decide what restrictions might be needed to keep the database size from growing out of control. You may want to put a limit on file upload size on a table that might storing documents for example.

SELECT
t.NAME AS TableName,
p.rows AS TableRowCounts,
CONVERT(DECIMAL,SUM(a.total_pages)) * 8 / 1024 AS TotalSpaceMB,
CONVERT(DECIMAL,SUM(a.total_pages)) * 8 / 1024 /1024 AS TotalSpaceGB,
SUM(a.used_pages) * 8 / 1024 AS UsedSpaceMB ,
SUM(a.used_pages) * 8 / 1024 / 1024 AS UsedSpaceGB
FROM
DatabaseName.sys.tables t
INNER JOIN
DatabaseName.sys.indexes i ON t.OBJECT_ID = i.object_id
INNER JOIN
DatabaseName.sys.partitions p ON i.object_id = p.OBJECT_ID AND i.index_id = p.index_id
INNER JOIN
DatabaseName.sys.allocation_units a ON p.partition_id = a.container_id
LEFT OUTER JOIN
DatabaseName.sys.schemas s ON t.schema_id = s.schema_id
WHERE
t.is_ms_shipped = 0
AND i.OBJECT_ID > 255
GROUP BY
t.Name, s.Name, p.Rows
ORDER BY
UsedSpaceGB DESC, t.Name

Database Mail Error Failed to initialize sqlcmd library with error number -2147467259 https://aumtechhub.com/database-mail-error-failed-to-initialize-sqlcmd-library-with-error-number-2147467259/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=database-mail-error-failed-to-initialize-sqlcmd-library-with-error-number-2147467259 Wed, 11 Aug 2021 03:29:26 +0000 https://aumtechhub.com/?p=249 In this example below the error will occur because the context of the query is running under MSDB when the query is specified without the database name in the query.

The correct query for the above example is:

EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail
@profile_name ='dbMail',
@recipients = 'dharmyog.com@gmail.com',
@subject ='Test Email',
@body ='Test Email',
@query=' select * from [dbo].[vwEmployees] Where EmployeeAge = 25',
@attach_query_result_as_file = 1;

EXEC msdb.dbo.sp_send_dbmail
@profile_name ='dbMail',
@recipients = 'dharmyog.com@gmail.com',
@subject ='Test Email',
@body ='Test Email',
@query=' select * from EmployeeDB.dbo.vwEmployees Where EmployeeAge = 25',
@attach_query_result_as_file = 1;

This way the stored procedure will execute under the msdb context and the query will execute because the database hierarchy is referenced. So the database name has to be entered in the query.

Select L.NAME DBName,R.percent_complete as [Progress%]
FROM Master.dbo.sysdatabases L Left join sys.dm_exec_requests R on L.DBID=R.Database_ID
WHERE percent_complete > 0
raiserror('',0,1) with nowait
waitfor delay '00:00:10'
GO 15
