SYMPTOMS
When you open a database in Microsoft SQL Server 2000, you notice that a user database is marked as suspect. Also, an error message that is similar to the following is logged in the SQL Server 2000 error log:
CAUSE
This problem occurs because SQL Server incorrectly asserts free data page space when a row is inserted. The estimate accounts for the free space that has not yet been reclaimed. The row that is being inserted must have more space than is actually available.
Note If you apply the hotfix in this article, and then you run the recovery process again, you will experience the same assert. This hotfix will only prevent later occurrences.
RESOLUTION
Service pack information
To resolve this problem, obtain the latest service pack for Microsoft SQL Server 2000. For more information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
290211 How to obtain the latest SQL Server 2000 service pack
Hotfix information
Note If you have a database in a condition that experiences this assert, you cannot resolve the problem by applying this hotfix in this condition and then trying to run the recovery process again. The original transaction log records that caused the problem have already persisted their changes on the affected page. This hotfix will only prevent later occurrences of this problem when the transactions experience a similar situation during runtime. To recover a database that is experiencing this specific problem, you must perform a restore of the database from a backup.
Prerequisites
You must install SQL Server 2000 Service Pack 3 (SP3). For information about how to obtain SQL Server 2000 SP3, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
