Subject: transaction log problems
Date: Dec 1 1997 8:11PM
Hi all:
I have a perl program that does
$ref = $A->ct_sql("delete $database_name..BILLHIST where datediff(mm,
BILLING_DATE, getdate()) >= 14");)
Sometimes I get a transaction log problem, because the delete pulls too many
rows. The process hangs because the transaction log becomes suspended. The
log filled up I guess.
I then added a callback to handle the server errors and waited for a
tranaction log message.
ct_callback(CS_SERVERMSG_CB, "srv_cb");
When I saw one then I tried cancelling the delete with ct_cancel. However,
it never seemed to work. So I just decided to quit the program and print an
error to a log file.
It would be nice if I could have cancelled the delete then have the program
continue on. Does anyone have ideas on how to deal with transaction log
problems they can share. Would it be possible to figure out a way to make
sure the transaction log was large enough before I try the delete??
Thanks a lot for any ideas.
Rich
