Hi.
I am trying to automatically backup transaction log when error 9002
happened. So i have created appropriate job and alert to catch this error.
I have two instances of sql server under Windows 2000. One of them is full
SQL Server, another is msde.
When transaction log is full in full SQL Server error 9002 severity 17
state 2 is logged in sql server log and in Windows Application log. My
alert firing my job. All is fine.
But when transaction log is full in MSDE error 9002 severity 17 state 6 is
logged only in sql server log. It is not logged into Windows Application
log so my alert does not work.
So here is my questions:
1. Why MSDE does not log error into Windows Application log?
2. Why error 9002 has severity 19 in sysmessages table but is generated
with severity 17?
3. Why state of error 9002 differs under sql server and msde?
Thank you.

1. I've also set this up (MSDE2000 SP3a on Windows XP Pro SP1), and it works
correctly - error 9002 is logged in both the SQL log and the Windows event
log, and the alert executes a job. This post suggests that restarting SQL
Server may help:

If that doesn't work, then perhaps you can give more details about your
setup - which version of MSDE do you have? Have you installed the latest
servicepack? Also, if you execute RAISERROR ... WITH LOG to raise a test
error, is it logged in the Windows event log?
2. No idea, but 17 seems to be more correct, since it's the severity level
for insufficient resources.
3. State is not a fixed value - the process which raises the error can use
different states with the same error, to provide extra information about
exactly how the error was caused. In this case, it could be something like 2
for system databases and 6 for user ones, or 2 in Standard Edition, but 6 in
MSDE etc. I got state 6 with a user DB in MSDE.

Thank you for answer. OS is Windows 2000 SP4. I have MSDE 2000 SP3a and
MSDE 2000 Release A instances. Both do not write error 9002 into Windows
error log identically. SQL 2000 instance in the same OS works fine.
I have rebooted computer few times. It does not resolved my problem. I
think rebooting computer is equivalent to restarting SQL Server. Am i
wrong?
I got state 2 overloading user DB in MSDE -> Windows error log is not
written
State 6 overloading identical user DB in SQL Server -> Windows error log
is written correct
I will try to execute RAISERROR...WITH LOG and will post its results later.

I have executed RAISERROR ... WITH LOG statement in my MSDE database. It
does not write into the Windows log. But i have found some warning
messages in Application log. Here is my application for today. May be you

It looks like something is fundamentally wrong with your installation, if
you get so many DLL errors. Personally, I would completely remove all MSDE
instances on the server and reinstall it, instead of trying to identify each
error:
http://support.microsoft.com/defaul...3&Product=sql2k
By the way, the error 17055 suggests that you are truncating the log even if
the database is in full recovery mode. This isn't a good idea, because then
you can't recover your previous backups if you need to:

I do this by defining a Database Maintenance plan, but leaving the
jobs this generates disabled. I then use msdb.dbo.sp_start_job to call
the job when wanted. Not only does this method log to the msdb history
tables, but old backups, execution logs, etc are cleaned up per the
retention settings.
You may already be "losing data" when you get the 9002 error. Take a
look at performance alerts and set a threshold (say 70%) so the system
may be able to backup the log and recover space before transactions
fail because the log is full.
