Get help: http://help/MSSQL_REPL3 This error can be puzzling at first glance especially when further investigation reveals that the path indeed does exist and the replication agent process accounts have sufficient privileges to access the snapshot folder. Well, if you are like most, you probably configured the Distributor using the Configure Distribution Wizard or the New Publication Wizard which defaults the snapshot folder to a local path. The reason this error occurs is because when using pull subscriptions and/or a remote distributor you must specify a UNC network share such as \\

These servers are on different domains which basically hate each other and largely refuse to allow their users access to each other. They do both communicate nicely with a third domain, and it is a user http://stackoverflow.com/questions/5899273/sql-server-replication-cannot-open-file-os-error-5-even-though-i-can-manually from that domain which I am using as the process owner on both servers. I have created a shared folder on the publishing server, and I am using it as the Snapshot folder, set via Publication Properties -> Snapshot -> "Put files in the following folder" and have confirmed that the files are being published locally and can be accessed via the shared folder. The Snapshot Agent on the publishing server runs and appears to complete successfully. I've then created a Pull subscription on the subscribing server and told it to run with the Agent Process Account of the same user that runs the snapshot agent on the publisher. I've redirected the snapshot location to "Alternate folder" and set that folder to be the shared folder on the remote server that I set up earlier. The Pulling server connects correctly to the Publishing server, And then fails because "The process could not read file "\[server].[domain][share][snapshot directory][file].pre" due to OS error 5" I've logged into the Pull server as the executing account and manually navigated to, and opened, that file. I've done the same on the publishing server. I'm out of ideas. What am I screwing up? sql sql-server share|improve this question edited May 5 '11 at 15:42 marc_s 450k928621028 asked May 5
easy enough, and is general linked to access to replication folders on the Distributor file-system, from the Subscriber Agent account. The full error http://thinknook.com/sql-server-replication-process-could-not-read-file-due-to-os-error-5-2012-04-20/ message will look something like this: The process could not read file ‘‘ due to OS error 5. (Source: MSSQL_REPL, Error number: MSSQL_REPL20024) When setting up replication, you are required to https://www.experts-exchange.com/questions/28059629/PULL-REPLICATION-OS-ERROR-53.html specify an account under which the Subscriber Agent will run, for example if you were using T-SQL to create a subscription, you will have to specify the following paramters: @job_login = '[subscriber-agent-account]' could not @job_password = '[subscriber-agent-account-password]' The error message indicates that the [subscriber-agent-account] used to create the subscription does not have access to shared folders required for that subscription. Lets assume that you have a distributor machine called Dist1, which has a folder called D:\ReplData, this folder contains data used for replicating a publication, when you created the distributor, you specified this folder as a network could not read location to use as a file share for the replication data, using either: Implicit File Share (not recommended): When you specify \\Dist1\$D\ReplData as the network location, this is implicit because you are traversing the file-system in order to reach the folder share, and the folder is not being explicitly shared. Explicit File Share (recommended): When you specify \\Dist1\ReplData, this is done by right-clicking on the folder in Windows Explorer, and selecting the "Share" option. Implicit File Share Distribution Folder In order to resolve the "Process could not read file due to OS Error 5″ error when using an implicit file share, you will have to give the subscriber agent account FULL administrative access to the file system (D: in our case), since the authentication need to be able to read the D:\ drive in order to reach the ReplData folder. Explicit File Share Distribution Folder In order to resolve the "Process could not read file due to OS Error 5″ error when using an explicit file share, you will have to give the subscriber agent account read access to the File Share location only.
