I am running a scheduled job through SQL Server Agent every morning, Tuesday
to Saturday, at 3:00 am.
It runs perfectly for ws, sometimes months. Then, one morning, something
happens to cause SQL Server
and SQL Server Agent to stop running. *Nothing* has changed in the scheduled
job.
When this situation occurs, it always occurs while running the scheduled job
(i.e., the machine is not idle).
The scheduled job executes my stored procedure si_ImportMaster.
Furthermore, si_ImportMaster simply does some error checking and then execut
es a series of 10 stored procedures,
and when the error happens, it is always when si_ImportMaster is executing t
he same stored procedure (of those 10).
When I come in to work and realize what has happened, I re-start SQL Server
and SQL Server Agent
and execute the rest of the stored procedures in the process (including the
one it stopped on).
That "re-run" process completes without a hitch.
I would be happy to post the contents of the stored procedure in question, b
ut my thinking was that
if it runs correctly for ws or months, it can't be the fault of the SQL c
ode. Can it . . . ?
I have been given the job of troubleshooting this. I am much more familiar w
ith SQL Server programming
than the DBA side of things, so any and all assistance is appreciated.
We're running SQL 7.0 SP2.
If you need me to post anything else, let me know.
Thanks in advance -- Carl
Following is some error log output. I was able to find 4 relevant log files:
...\LOG\ERRORLOG.1 -- excerpted below
...\LOG\SQLAGENT.1 -- excerpted below
...\LOG\SQL00031.dmp -- 48K of mostly technical stuff (core dump info, etc
.)
...\LOG\SQL00032.dmp -- same as above.
Anyway,
Here's some output from ...\LOG\ERRORLOG.1

The problem was with the Code that was written in the SP that was being

the SQLServer Engine (and along with it SQLAgent) and this is used to happen
randomly.
Finally we traced it to that part of the code. Fortunately, Microsoft has a
fix for this.
You dont seem to have the latest SQLServer 7 Service Pack. May be your
problem has been addressed
in one of them.
Did you the SQLServer Log file for any errors, Assertions ... etc.

I will install the latest SP and see if that cures the problem.
Thanks for your time.
