I have created a publisher (on sql server 2008 r2), create transaction replication and have created a new database on subscriber sql instance (SQL Server 2012 Express).
After I have created a new subscription on SQL Server 2012 Express.
But My new database had't been updated via synchronization.
On server SQL server 2008 r2 via Replication monitor I can see that status is Uninitialized subscription for SQL Server 2012 Express and in details No replicated transactions are available. message
How I can fix it ?
Thanks
The error states that your subscription is uninitialized.
You need to create the initial snapshot. Right-click the publication under the Local Publications folder at the Publisher and click View Snapshot Agent Status. Then click Start. Once the snapshot is generated, synchronize your subscription to apply the snapshot.
This is covered in Create and Apply the Initial Snapshot.

I want to make a Clone server Like Server A and Server B
Ex :
After I'm making update in Server A data then on Server B is Sync Automatically or Programatically with Server A. When update Stored Procedure on Server A the server B is Sync.
is it possible ?
I don't want an answer like Backup then Restore.
You can use SQL server replication.
More information you can refer
SQL Server Replication
An other option could be using Mirroring on SQL Server although it will not be continued on feature versions of SQL Server.
Please note that the secondary database is readonly copy of the principal database in mirroring.
If you have plans for versions after SQL Server 2016, you can think of using Always On Availability Groups
I'm trying to set database snapshot replication using c# with SQL Server 2008 R2. when I'm connecting to the server everything goes as it should... but after the following lines of the code:
distributor = new ReplicationServer(conn);
distributor.InstallDistributor((string)null, distributionDb);
the following error occurs:
This edition of SQL Server cannot act as a Publisher or Distributor for replication. Changed database context to 'master'
Any ideas?
Per Replication Considerations (SQL Server Express), SQL Server Express cannot serve as a Publisher or Distributor, only as a Subscriber. You will need a Standard Edition or higher instance to configure distribution and setup a publication. The Express Edition instance can then serve as a Subscriber.
SQL Server Express cannot serve as a Publisher or Distributor.
I'm working with SQL Server 2008 R2 and I need to replicate the content of a database for example each hour. It's really important that I can trigger this replication and that only the data, that were in the database at the time the replication was triggered, are replicated.
So let's say I have the two following servers:
Server A (productive server)
Server B (failover server)
Is it possible to do a snapshot on server A and then replicate this snapshot to the remote server B? Every changes that occurred after the snapshot was created shouldn't be replicated to the server B!
Thanks for your help!

I have old database server as SQL Server 2000 whose data has to be periodically updated to the SQL Server 2008 server (may be one time per day). So I have planned to use the replication. First I have created distribution database in SQL Server 2000 & added the new database as publisher.
But when I created the subscriber in SQL Server 2008 & connects to SQL Server 2000 then the publisher doesn't appear in the list. What could be the reason, I am using SQL Server 2008 express edition or if any one could point out to the step by step guide for setting up replication between SQL Server 2000 and 2008? I have used the wizard in SQL Server 2000 for creating distribution & publisher.
Mixed versions are supported, but:
Distributor version must always be equal or newer than Publisher
Subscribers for transactional replication can be within 2 versions newer/older of Publisher
Subscribers for merge replication must be equal or older than Publisher
Getting this warning when trying to setup a transactional replication. This error occurs when setting up a subscription from sql server express using non impersonated login to the distributor. this works using sql server developer subscrption to sql server workgroup publication but not from sql express to sql workgroup. Im not sure if it is an issue with the agent or what not but the subscription setup is identical to my working subscription other than the ability to choose the login to the sql server agent.
If I'm reading this correctly, you're trying to use SQL Server Express as your publisher. SQL Server Express can only be a subscriber in a transactional replication.
