Bug #: 50000452 (SQL Hotfix)


Notice

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.

This article describes the following about this hotfix release:

SYMPTOMS

When you run a query that uses a plan guide in SQL Server 2005, the query may intermittently fail. Additionally, an access violation that resembles the following is logged in the SQL Server Errorlog file:

2006-08-23 13:34:10.48 spid438 ***Stack Dump being sent to H:\MSSQL\LOG\SQLDump0016.txt

This problem occurs if the following conditions are true:

  • The query uses a plan guide.
  • The query accepts some parameters.
  • The plan guide applies the OPTIMIZE FOR hint for the query.
  • The query is recompiled before you run the query .

WORKAROUND

To work around this problem, try to avoid the query recompilation. To determine the reason for the recompilation, use the method that is described in Microsoft Knowledge Base article 308737.

MORE INFORMATION

Steps to reproduce the problem

  1. Open SQL Server Management Studio.
  2. Connect to an instance of SQL Server 2005.
  3. Create a new query, and then run the following statements.

    use tempdb
    go
    
    create table mytab1 (col1 nvarchar(50), col2 nvarchar(100), col3 int)
    go
    
    create table mytab2 (a int)
    go
    
    insert into mytab1 values ('col1 value', 'col2 value', 1)
    go
    
    insert into mytab2 values (1)
    go
    
    set quoted_identifier off;
    go
    
    sp_create_plan_guide 
    N'myplanguide',
    N'select * from mytab1 join mytab2 on col3 = a where col1 = @p1', 
    N'SQL',
    NULL,
    N'@p1 nvarchar(30)',
    N'OPTION (FAST 40, OPTIMIZE FOR (@p1 = N''col2''))'
    go
    
    select * from sys.plan_guides
    go
    
    sp_executesql N'select * from mytab1 join mytab2 on col3 = a where col1 = @p1', N'@p1 nvarchar(30)', N'col2'
    go
    
    drop table mytab1
    go
    
    create table mytab1 (col1 nvarchar(50), col2 nvarchar(100), col3 int)
    go
    
    sp_executesql N'select * from mytab1 join mytab2 on col3 = a where col1 = @p1', N'@p1 nvarchar(30)', N'col2'
    go
    
    sp_control_plan_guide N'drop all'
    go
