If I use FuturePublish() to schedule a message for future execution, is there anything in the EasyNetQ API to allow me to delete the message whilst it's sat dehydrated in the scheduler's SQL database?
No, there's nothing available to do that I'm afraid.

We have a project in Octopus that has been configured to release to an environment on a schedule.
In the process definition we use a step template for Slack to send the team a notification when a release takes place. We would like to avoid sending this Slack message if the release was fired by the schedule - rather than user initiated.
I was hoping there would be a system variable that we could check before running the Slack step - but I can't seem to find anything documented as such, and google didn't turn anything up.
TIA
If you are using Octopus 2019.5.0 or later, there are two variables that will be populated if the deployment was created by a trigger.
Octopus.Deployment.Trigger.Id
Octopus.Deployment.Trigger.Name
You can see the details at https://github.com/OctopusDeploy/Issues/issues/5462
For your Slack step, you can use this run condition to skip it if the trigger ID is populated.
#{unless Octopus.Deployment.Trigger.Id}True#{/unless}
I hope that helps!
I'm wondering is there a way to recognize the OfflineComamd is being executed or internal flag or something to represent this command has been passed or mark it has been executed successfully. I have issue in recognizing the command is passed or not with unstable internet. I keep retrieve the records from database and comparing each and every time to see this has been passed or not. But due to the flow of my application, I'm finding it very difficult to avoid duplicates.IS there any automatic process to make sure commands executed automatically or something else?
2nd question, I can use UITimer to check isOffline() to make sure internet is connected or not on the forms. Is there something equivalent on server page or where queries is written to see internet is disconnected or not. When the control moved to queries and internet is disconnected I see the dialog open from form page being frozen for unlimited time and will not end. I have to close and re-open the app to continue the synchronization process.At the same time I cannot set a timeout for dialog because I'm not sure how long it will take the complete the Synchronization process. Please advise.
Extending on the same topic but I have created a new issue just to give more clarity on my questions.
executeOfflineCommand skips a command while executing from storage on Android
There is no way to know if a connection will stay stable as it requires knowledge of the future. You can work like transaction services do where the server side processes an offline command as a transaction using the approach of 2-phase commit.
In this approach you have an algorithm similar to this:
Client sends command to server
Server returns a special unique ID for the command
Client asks server to perform the unique id
Server acknowledges that the command was performed
If the first 2 stages didn't complete you just do that again. The worst thing that could happen is some orphan commands on the server.
If the 3rd option didn't complete you just do it again. The server knows whether it processed the command and will just acknowledge it if it was already processed.
We have some to critical jobs in our production system. We receiving email about of job status succeded or failed and also we want to set send text message from SQL Server. I searched but looks not so possible, has anybody tried before ?
I have done this a long time ago using a third-party tool that offers exactly what you need. You can find out more about it here.
And here you can find detailed information on how to send and receive messages from SQL Server, using this tool.
In the website it is stated that you can only use this for free for the first 30 days.
Basically you will need to host their small database on your SQL Server and then insert a row into a Messages table with the message you want to send along with the phone number to which it has to be delivered.
"The SMS Messaging Server service application will pickup any newly added messages and send them out through the appropriate channel automatically." as stated in the documentation.
However, because it is a third party tool and not open source, I don't know if it will be suitable for you. I am not aware of any free tools for the same purpose.
I have found this link where it is explained how to turn emails into text messages, it has an inconvenient, however: you have to know the cellular provider for each of the phones you want to send message.

Best regards,
I've noticed that whenever I add tables / stored procs / functions / whatever to a sql server database, that it takes a while for the code completion to pick up that they are now part of the database.
This is really annoying since the code completion and syntax highlighting become totally broken in the workflow scenario where you create a table and then start writing queries or whatever that deal with this new object.
Does anyone know how to get the code completion / syntax highlighting engine to update it's view of what is in the database to get rid of all these spurious invalid object name errors?
I understand that it's too late to answer the question but maybe it will help someone.
You can refresh the Intellisense cache with Ctrl+Shift+R, and wait for 5-10 seconds.
A guess: Close and reopen SSMS? Lame and ineffective, and I hope there's a better way.
I've implemented a messaging system over SQL Server Service Broker. It is working great, with the sole exception that every once in a while (maybe once per week per server) my initiator service just vanishes without a trace. The corresponding queue is still there, but the service is missing.
Obviously this causes problems in my system. It's a simple matter to recreate the service by hand, but I'm confused as to what might cause this behavior. I understand that automatic poison message handling causes queues to be disabled, but I don't see anything that indicates services can be disabled or deleted automatically.
When this happens, I usually have a large backlog of messages in multiple application queues, but nothing extreme. Total message backlog is around 200,000.
Does anyone know what might be happening here?
You must have a bug of some sort that issues a DROP SERVICE statement. That is the only way a service gets deleted.
Check the default trace, the DROP statement gets traced and saved into it so you can track down the application/user/statement that issues the DROP. Check sys.traces to find the location of the default trace then open the .TRC file in Profiler.
