SQL Server startup parameter
Note After you apply this hotfix, you must also add trace flag 9054. To do this, follow these steps:
- In SQL Server Enterprise Manager, right-click your SQL Server name, and then click Properties.
- In the SQL Server Properties (Configure) -
SQL Server Name
dialog box, click the General tab. - On the General tab, click Startup Parameters.
- In the Startup Parameters -
SQL Server Name
dialog box, type "-T9054" (without the quotation marks) in the Parameter text box. - Click Add, and then click OK.
- In the Startup Parameters -
SQL Server Name
dialog box, click OK. - Restart the SQL Server service for the new startup parameter to take effect.
WORKAROUND
To work around this problem for an individual query, use either of the following methods:
- Use a UNION ALL statement instead of a UNION statement.
- Set the data type of the constant values by using something other than the Convert function or the Cast function because the other query sets the data type.
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 2000 Service Pack 4.
