Error Message

  • I received this error which totally hung up SQL server. "SqlDumpExceptionHandler: Process 54 generated fatal exception c0000005 EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION. SQL Server is terminating this process." We're running SQL 2ksp3 and I can only find a reference to SQL 7 on Microsoft's website. What does this mean or what caused it?

  • any time you get EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION it is either because the OS is in an unstable condition or a bug on SQL Server.

    I would suggest a reboot and try to figure out if it is repeatable should it be the case File a bug with MS

  • I did reboot and all is well. It's the first time this has happened since I went to SQL 2k about a year ago. I'm wondering what caused it?? I'll check the OS. Thanks.

  • Check the SQL log to find out since when it is happening and what was executing before the error.

    Check also the event viewer for windows errors at the same time of the hung of SQL.
