Syntax

sp_addscriptexec [ @publication = ] publication
    [ , [ @scriptfile = ] 'scriptfile' ]
    [ , [ @skiperror = ] 'skiperror' ]
    [ , [ @publisher = ] 'publisher' ]

Arguments

  • [ @publication= ] 'publication'
    Is the name of the publication. publication is sysname, with no default.
  • [ @scriptfile= ] 'scriptfile'
    Is the full path to the SQL script file. scriptfile is nvarchar(4000), with no default.

  • [ @skiperror= ] 'skiperror'
    Indicates whether the Distribution Agent or Merge Agent should stop when an error is encountered during script processing. SkipError is bit, with a default of 0.

    0 = the agent will stop.

    1 = the agent continues the script and ignores the error.

  • [ @publisher= ] 'publisher'
    Specifies a non-Microsoft SQL Server publisher. publisher is sysname, with a default of NULL.

    Note

    publisher should not be used when publishing from a SQL Server Publisher.

Return Code Values

0 (success) or 1 (failure)

Remarks

sp_addscriptexec is used in transactional replication and merge replication.

sp_addscriptexec is not used for snapshot replication.

To use sp_addscriptexec, the SQL Server service account must have read and write permissions on the snapshot location and read permissions on the location where any scripts are stored.

The sqlcmd utility is used to execute the script at the Subscriber, and the script is executed in the security context used by the Distribution Agent or Merge Agent when connecting to the subscription database. When the agent is run on a previous version of SQL Server, the osql utility is used instead of sqlcmd.

sp_addscriptexec is useful in applying scripts to subscribers, and uses sqlcmd to apply the contents of the script to the Subscriber. However, because Subscriber configurations can vary, scripts tested prior to posting to the Publisher may still cause errors on a Subscriber. skiperror provides the ability to have the Distribution Agent or Merge Agent ignore errors and continue on. Use sqlcmd to test scripts prior to running sp_addscriptexec.

Note

Skipped errors will continue to be logged in the Agent history for reference.

Using sp_addscriptexec to post a script file for publications using FTP for snapshot delivery is only supported for Microsoft SQL Server Subscribers.

Permissions

Only members of the sysadmin fixed server role or db_owner fixed database role can execute sp_addscriptexec.
