BUG: 1105 During Object Resolution Can Cause Thread AV

Q132225

The information in this article applies to:
BUG# NT: 9690 (4.21a)

SYMPTOMS

When an object, such as a stored procedure or view, is undergoing resolution and the process encounters or causes an 1105 error in syslogs, it can cause a thread access violation or 707 error:

Attempt to access memory at location 0x0

Two errors are returned to the client process. The client receives the 1105 error on syslogs message, and then receives the access violation or the 707 error. The SQL Server errorlog, however, will only record the access violation or the 707 error.


CAUSE

The resolution process incorrectly handles an 1105 error on syslogs situation. When this happens, additional rows are added to the sysprocedures table, consequently the reason for the 1105 error.


WORKAROUND

Clear the transaction log by dumping it and resume normal processing. Also, you may want to drop and recreate the object if the size of the object has grown significantly.


STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft SQL Server version 4.21a. This problem does not occur in SQL Server version 6.0.
