HI Raymond,
I tried as you suggested. I logged into the server using the same domain
account that the SQL Agent runs under.
I am assuming you manually start snapshot.exe by just running the
executasble as I tried below:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\COM>snapshot.exe -Embedding
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\COM>echo %errorlevel%
0
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\COM>replmerg.exe -Embedding
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\80\COM>echo %errorlevel%
0
When I setup replication two jobs are setup within sql server server. A
snapshot and merge job. Within each job there are three steps. The first
step of each job (Snapshot Agent startup message, Merge Agent startup
message) starts successfully.
The second step of each job (Run Agent) fails with "The system cannot find
the path specified" error.
1) Job 1 is NPBOSSSQL4\NPBOSSSQL4-INTRANETD-Merge_Replicate-1
steps :
- Snapshot Agent startup message:
sp_MSadd_snapshot_history @perfmon_increment = 0, @agent_id = 1,
@runstatus = 1, @comments = 'Starting agent.'
- Run Agent:
-Publisher [NPBOSSSQL4\NPBOSSSQL4] -PublisherDB [INTRANETD] -Distributor
[NPBOSSSQL4\NPBOSSSQL4] -Publication [Merge_Replicate] -ReplicationType 2
-DistributorSecurityMode 1
-Detect nonlogged agent shutdown:
sp_MSdetect_nonlogged_shutdown @subsystem = 'Snapshot', @agent_id = 1
Fails with error: Executed as user: NFPOWER_DOMAIN\SQLboss.
Replication-Replication Snapshot Subsystem: agent
NPBOSSSQL4\NPBOSSSQL4-INTRANETD-Merge_Replicate-1 failed. The system cannot
find the path specified. NOTE: The step was retried the requested number of
times (10) without succeeding. The step failed. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error
14151). The step failed.
2) Job 2 is:
NPBOSSSQL4\NPBOSSSQL4-INTRANETD-Merge_Replicate-NPBOSSSQL2\NPBOSSSQL2-2
steps:
- Merge Agent startup message:
sp_MSadd_merge_history @perfmon_increment = 0, @agent_id = 2, @runstatus =
1, @comments = 'Starting agent.'
- run agent:
-Publisher [NPBOSSSQL4\NPBOSSSQL4] -PublisherDB [INTRANETD] -Publication
[Merge_Replicate] -Subscriber [NPBOSSSQL2\NPBOSSSQL2] -SubscriberDB
[Northwind] -Distributor [NPBOSSSQL4\NPBOSSSQL4] -DistributorSecurityMode 1
- Detect nonlogged agent shutdown:
sp_MSdetect_nonlogged_shutdown @subsystem = 'Merge', @agent_id = 2
Fails with error: Executed as user: NFPOWER_DOMAIN\SQLboss.
Replication-agentclassname: agent
NPBOSSSQL4\NPBOSSSQL4-INTRANETD-Merge_Replicate-NPBOSSSQL2\NPBOSSSQL2-2
failed. The system cannot find the path specified. NOTE: The step was
retried the requested number of times (10) without succeeding. The step
failed. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 14151). The step failed.
