APPLIES TO

  • Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition

Microsoft distributes Microsoft SQL Server 2005 fixes as one downloadable file. Because the fixes are cumulative, each new release contains all the hotfixes and all the security fixes that were included with the previous SQL Server 2005 fix release.

SUMMARY

This article describes the following about this hotfix release:

  • The issues that are fixed by this hotfix package
  • The prerequisites for installing the hotfix package
  • Whether you must restart your computer after you install the hotfix package
  • Whether the hotfix package is replaced by any other hotfix package
  • Whether you must make any registry changes
  • The files that are contained in the hotfix package


SYMPTOMS

When you use the sp_cursoropen statement to open a cursor on a user-defined stored procedure in Microsoft SQL Server 2005, you may receive the following error messages:

Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Procedure SP_Name, Line 5
Incorrect syntax near 'END'.
Msg 16945, Level 16, State 2, Procedure sp_cursoropen, Line 1
The cursor was not declared.

NoteSP_Name is a placeholder for the name of the user-defined stored procedure.

This problem occurs when all the following conditions are true:

  • One of the tables that are referenced by the user-defined stored procedure contains a relational index.
  • The sp_cursoropen statement has been executed, and the execution plan is already in the procedure cache.
  • The table that contains a relational index is modified by an index maintenance operation, such as the DBCC DBREINDEX statement or the ALTER INDEX statement.

For more information about execution plans, see the "Execution plan caching and reuse" topic in SQL Server 2005 Books Online.

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, use one of the following methods:

  • Run the DBCC FREEPROCCACHE statement after the index of the table is modified.
  • Run the user-defined stored procedure with the WITH RECOMPILE clause. For example, you can use a statement that is similar to the following to open a cursor on a user-defined stored procedure that returns a result set.

    EXEC sp_cursoropen @c output, N'EXEC SP_Name WITH RECOMPILE'


STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section. This problem was first corrected in Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 1.

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to reproduce the problem

Run the following Transact-SQL statements against the AdventureWorks database in SQL Server Management Studio.

-- Create the user-defined stored procedure:
CREATE PROCEDURE [ReindexProblem]
AS
BEGIN
SELECT * FROM [AdventureWorks].[HumanResources].[Employee]
END
GO

-- Open a cursor on the stored procedure so that the execution plan is already in the procedure cache:
DECLARE @c int
SET @c = 0
EXEC sp_cursoropen @c output, N'EXEC [ReindexProblem]'
EXEC sp_cursorclose @c
GO

-- Reindex the table that is referenced by the stored procedure:
DBCC DBREINDEX(N'[AdventureWorks].[HumanResources].[Employee]', N'', 90)
GO

-- Then, run the procedure again:
DECLARE @c int
SET @c = 0
EXEC sp_cursoropen @c output, N'EXEC [ReindexProblem]'
EXEC sp_cursorclose @c
GO
