An unknown error occurred in the WMI provider. Error Code 8000000A

Hi,

I just installed SQL Server 2005 on Windows Vista.
I am getting an error "An unknown error occurred in the WMI
provider. Error Code 8000000A" when connecting to a web server. The
reporting services is running. Is there any other installation that is
missing. Please help.

Reporting Services is not supported on Windows Vista until SP2 of SQL Server 2005 is available. It is due out early next year. If you are an SP2 preview customer, you can try it before then. You can find out about this program at: http://www.microsoft.com/sql/ctp.mspx

|||Hi,
I have just received the same error message when opening then Reporting Services configuration tool. The server is running MS Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition with Service Pack 1 and SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition with Service Pack 1. I don't have local administrator rights, but I am an administrator for SQL Server and I am in the system administrator group for Reporting Services.
I have already made done some web research, but all I have found was related to Windows Vista only.
Thanx for any help and best regards,
Gerald|||I am having the same problem as described for Server 2003. Do we just need to try SP2?

An incorrect or unsupported HTTP function call was made error

Hi All,

I've got this error "An incorrect or unsupported HTTP function call was made"

I can't browse SQL CE Agent using IE also.

How to solve this error? TQ

You need to give more information for other people to help, for example, what device, OS, what IDE, what kind of program you are writing, where do you get the error, and how?

OIC.. SORRY!!!

I'm developing Pocket PC Application. Then doing merge replication. When I want to run my app from PC through my PDA, I've got An incorrect or unsupported HTTP function call was made error. All I know this is IIS problem because I can't browse SQL Server CE Agent from PC/Pocket PC internet explorer.

I'm using :-

- VSNet 2003

- SQL Server CE

- SQL Server 2000

- HP iPAQ

- Windows Mobile 2003 Version 4.21.1088

- .Net Compact Framework 1.0

- ActiveSync 3.8

Thank you..

When such error is thrown to app, the exception would contain the following:

Major Error number, Minor error number, HRESULT ... etc..

Can you please let us know the exception contents.

Sometimes you get error collection, check if you have got an error or a collection.

Sorry 4 the late respond..

I can't remember what the exception contain.. :D because now I'm using another computer..

My replication was successfully..

But when I want to change table design I've to delete the Publications, change table design then doing the new Publication again..

N then I've got this error :-

"Initializing SQL Server Reconciler has failed [,,,,,]"

"The Subscription to Publication 'PDA' is invalid"

What's wrong with my replication?

|||

1) Make sure that http://IISBoxName/VirtualDirName/sqlcesa30.dll?diag show GREEN SUCCESS for SQL Server Reconciler either 9.0 or 8.0 depending on your environment and SQL Server version.

2) Check whether replrec.dll, msgprox.dll, replerrx.dll are registered in %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\90\COM

Thanks

thanks Laxmi..

but I didn't understand the 1st step that u mention..

Can u tell me more bout that.. TQ

if you made a change to the schema of the publication (published articles), you need to re-generate your snapshot. From within SQL Server 2005 Management Studio, right click on the publication itself and choose View Snapshot Agent Status. Then click the Start button in the resulting dialog.

Once the snapshot succeeds, re-try your replication.

Darren

|||thanks Darren.. but i'm using SQL Server 2000|||

regardless, you should generate a new snapshot of your publication.

Darren

thankss Darren,

I tried so many time to generate new snapshot but I still got that 2 error. Finally, I've re-install my SQL Server 2000, SQL Server SP3a and SQL Server CE Tools.. n my replication success..

:D

An error occurred while processing 'BackupMetadata' metadata for database

I have transferred a database from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005 and now I am getting an error when I try to run backup. I get there error "An error occurred while processing 'BackupMetadata' metedata for datase ID..." Does anyone have any suggestions on how to resolve this error?

whats there in the error log ? ? ?......also did you try to backup using T-SQL .......is the db accessible ? ? ? after you restored from SQL 2000......try running

dbcc checkdb........

|||

Below is the error log:

Failed-1073548784) Executing the query "BACKUP DATABASE [SURVIAC] TO DISK = N'C:\\DatabaseBackups\\DailyFull\\SURVIAC\\SURVIAC_backup_200707091051.bak' WITH NOFORMAT, NOINIT, NAME = N'SURVIAC_backup_20070709105151', SKIP, REWIND, NOUNLOAD, STATS = 10
" failed with the following error: "An error occurred while processing 'BackupMetadata' metadata for database id 13 file id 65537.
Inconsistent metadata has been encountered. The only possible backup operation is a tail-log backup using the WITH CONTINUE_AFTER_ERROR or NO_TRUNCATE option.
BACKUP DATABASE is terminating abnormally.". Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query, "ResultSet" property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established correctly.

The database is accessible and is being used. I ran checkdb and did not come up with anything. I haven't used T-SQL. I have only used enterprise manager and my maintenance plans.

|||

seems your db is corrupted i guess.........the error log states that metadata is inconsistent ........also it allows you to take transaction log backup by using the option WITH CONTINUE_AFTER_ERROR ........you have the following options,

1.Try to backup the db with T-SQL or

2.Take a tran log backup with the above option

3.If you have any recent full backup just restore it somewhere and test if you can take backup on that restored db....coz i doubt your db is corrupted....

|||

It looks like you could be hitting a problem where you have damaged pages in the backup. The default behavior under 2005 is for the backup to fail if the checksum can't be verified.

To see if it is the maintenance plan or not, first try to backup the database using your own T-SQL and not the maintenance plan.

Also, run your DBCC CHECKDB using your own T-SQL, not a maintenance plan.

How long ago did you move this from 2000 to 2005? Did you run a checkdb after that migration? How did upgrade the database? Have you done any successful backups since upgrading the database to 2005?

An error message i encountered during remote installation

Good day good people of the forum thanks for the response this is the error message i encountered "an error occured while attempting to validate the setup source files unc path. verify that you have entered a valid unc path."

What is the product you are trying to install? SQL 2000 or SQL 2005?

If you are using a mapped network drive my recommendation is to use the UNC path directly or copy the SKU to your local hard drive of your host machine and try again.
