sql server replication : Merge Replication - could not enumerate changes at the 'Publisher'
Set QueryTimeout to a larger value and restart your agent. It almost sounds
like you have an unreliable link between your publisher and subscriber. -- Hilary Cotter Director of Text Mining and Database Strategy RelevantNOISE.Com - Dedicated to mining blogs for business intelligence.

Karthik,
what happens if you just restart the merge agent? The problem here seems to be that there was a disruption to the network connection, and I would expect resyncing to sort out the problem.

Hi,
I have setup merge replication on SQL 2k with sp4. There are 2 pull subscriptions (one in LAN and the other over the internet). The one on the internet is giving the below error everytime we try to sync. The process could not enumerate changes at the 'Publisher'. The process could not enumerate changes at the 'Publisher'. The merge process could not retrieve column information for table 'dbo.ProjectDetails'. The merge process encountered an unexpected network error. The connection to Publisher 'ECOSYSTEM' is no longer available. Percent Complete: 0 The process could not enumerate changes at the 'Publisher'.

Hi Paul,
Thank you for the response! I have tried re-starting the merge agent but the same error persists. I have infact tried to restart all the subscribers and the publisher also. But even this didn't help. I have done a ping PUBLISHER -t from the culprit subscriber. Even the ping responses seem to be fine with hardly any time-outs. This always fails at one table for which around 1000 records are to be delivered from the publisher to the subscriber. I have tried increasing query timeout etc in the agent profile. But even this hasn't helped much. Thank you. Regards, Karthik [quoted text, click to view] "Paul Ibison" wrote:

Hi Hilary,
I have tried increasing the QueryTimeout to 1200 seconds. But still the problem persists. Also the system I am talking about was working fine till last Friday. This problem has started all of a sudden. We have checked with our server hosting company as to whether they have been having any issues with connectivity. They have replied in the negative.

could you post the schema for ProjectDetails?

For what it's worth, I had a "could not enumerate changes..." error
that was due to an inability of the merge agent to access the snapshot folder. A possibly significant difference between your LAN subscription (that works) and your anonymous subscription (that doesn't work) is the rights of the respective users under which the merge agents are launched. BTW, are you Karthik from OKC?
Hi,
I republished the entire data after dropping the publication/subscriptions. After this also I got errors for tables that were huge in size (basically with image columns). I deleted data from these tables the replication started working automatically. I am NOT Karthik from OKC. Regards, Karthik [quoted text, click to view] "dzman49" wrote:
