Hello I am struggling over this truncate script.  I have sql server 2012 and I have tried everything to get this to work.  According to my web.config file the database owner is dbo and the object qualifier is blank as it just has the two quotation marks close together with no space and no words.  Having read the instructions for executing this script I replaced all the databaseowner placeholders with dbo and all the objectqualifiers with nothing.

Suffice it to say I couldn't get it to work and half of the errors were syntax.  One was some error where it was looking for a boolean expression but didn't get what it expected.  I tried to substitute the place holder with the dbo and the nothingness with braces and than without the braces but in both cases I didn't get any good result as the script was littered with syntax errors and I just didn't know if you had an updated script or you could look at the one I posted to see if you could see any reason as to why it would fail to work in sql server 2012.

The script is pasted below for your viewing given this html editor doesn't strip the code.

 

Thanks,

 

Bo

you need to replace "{databaseOwner}" by "dbo." (please note the trailing "." and "objectQualifier" by "" - or run the script as is from Host > SQL.

I know I have permissions to my tables as I am signed in as admin and I tested truncating the sitelog and the schedulehistory table and that worked fine under my account.  Any ideas for this error.  I double checked my table prefixes just to verify it matched what the web.config file said and indeed it did.

Thanks for your help.

I apologize, in your case, you need to replace {objectQualifier} by an empty string, without the quotes, e.g.
IF EXISTS (SELECT * FROM sys.sysobjects WHERE id = object_id(N'dbo.[sys_currentDNNVersion]') AND Type = N'FN')

DROP FUNCTION dbo.[sys_currentDNNVersion]

GO

Keep in mind that I am trying to run this via ssms 2012.  I prefer this over using sql via host as it saves the third party step and directly queries the database.  Any other ideas as to why it is not working in my case.  What would cause my setup to be any different the others except that I am using sql 2012 and I wonder if that causes a problem with your code.  Weird but anyway let me know if you have any more suggestions.

In a sense I wish dotnetnuke would not have done this dividing eventlog into 3 tables as the headache wouldn't be there otherwise but thank you for putting this code together because I certainly would not have known how to cause foreign keys to drop out in order to truncate a table and than to put them back together again.
