- I get the following error when I attempt to create a publication from the wizardA exception occurred while attempting to execute a tsql statement or batch
Can not find procedure “”
Can not find procedure “”
Change the database context to “XXX” . (Microsoft sql server :2812)
- I tried creating the same from the following script and got an error message some related to the above
exec sp_addpublication @publication = N'database', @description = N'Transactional publication of database ''database'' from Publisher ''Server\I01''.',
@sync_method = N'concurrent', @retention = 0,

@allow_initialize_from_backup = N'false', @enabled_for_p2p = N'false', @enabled_for_het_sub = N'false'
The Error
Msg 2812, Level 16, State 62, Procedure sp_MSrepl_addpublication, Line 1227
Could not find stored procedure ''.
- I tried removing the database from the publisher property list and got the following error
The distributor has not been installed correctly, Could not disable the database for publishing , change the
database context to “dabase name” error 20029”
The last error message states that the Distributor DB is not setup correctly but there is no way to break the relationship between the Distributor DB and the attempted publication database(as I cant remove the publisher property from the database).
I finally tried changing the system table "sysdatabases" value of "category" from 16 to 0 and that failes as well.
I loged as DAC with single user mode and still failed to update the sysdatabases table( and yes I did sp_configure 'allow update',1 Reconfigure with Override)
Please let me know what I can do to over come this situation
Thanks in advance
First: Don't change "system tables" manually!
On the Publisher (and on the Subscriber if you got it set up right at some point )
Make sure that you can cleanup the db from any replication settings run :
exec sp_removedbreplication @dbname = 'dbname'
On The Distributor (could be the same as the publisher) clean it using:
OR
Then you can start over.
I hope this helps.
