SQLWB - SQL Server has encountered a user-defined Breakpoint

  • I have done an install of SQL 2005, both Server and client tools and the installation went fine. The issue I am having is that after I have opened up the local Management Studio and try and connect to a SQL instance I get the error:

    SQLWB - SQL Server has encountered a user-defined Breakpoint

    After clicking either debug or close Management Studio exits, all SQL services look fine and I can connect to the instance from another machine using Management Studio. Does anyone have any clues?

     

     

    Thanks in advance

  • Do you have Visual Studio 2005 installed on same box?

  • Balmukund,

     

    doesn't visual studio get installed when you install SQL 2005, if there was a previous installation would that cause issues?

  • Sorry for renewing this 2 month old post but I've just got same issue after installing SP1 on Sql Server 2K5. I mean after installation was completed and I rebooted machine I can not connect to Database Engine (DE) locally (but I can connect to all services locally or to DE remotely, i.e. Sql Server is OK with SP1 installed). Error is the same as was pointed in initial message- "Sql Server Management Studio has encountered ...”. Andrew: Did you somehow solve this problem?

    Thanks in advance,  Yuri

  • Yuri,

    It was an install on a developers machine, I noticed that he had installed a version of Visual Studio 2005 installed that he had downloaded from msdn. I uninstalled that, and uninstalled SQL 2005 and did a fresh install and all was fine. I believe the install of Visual Studio 2005 that SQL does is a cut down version but I don't think the developer was realy using the full blown version anyway (he is an oracle developer venturing into SQL)

  • Unfortunately I do not have this luxury to uninstall Sql Server as this is production server. Funny thing is that I run SP1 installation in 2 production servers in parallel- one is fine,second one- bad (I mean SSMS issue). Probably it’s a bit too late to look for a reason but instead I need to find a way how to fix this problem. Thanks

  • hi, i have the same problem. i'm upgrade to SP1 this morning and ia found the same problem. please i need help, we have this server in production.

  • I don't whether this will help but have you tried this sql cumulative fix:

    I have the same issue, I did a Disaster Recovery of a Client server and now have the same issue, cannot open the management studio because of the sqlwb has encountered an error. Now I have to export the 46GB database somewhere else so we can get the information we require before formatting the whole DR box for another DR operation.

  • Hi, Same problem after installing the SP1. Anyone try to install the SP2 to fix it?

    Regards

  • Tried re-installing Windows Server SP 2 yesterday after the restore and re-booted the server, still had the same problem, I suppose the extreme would be to stop the server, cut and paste the databases so another volume and use windows cleanup utility to get rid of SQL 2005 & VStudio, then do a fresh re-install, but that might be my only solution after the fix from microsoft, or was that miserysoft?
