FIX: Handled AV If Many Users Dropping/Creating Tables

ID: Q138748

The information in this article applies to:

Microsoft SQL Server version 6.0

SYMPTOMS

You may get a handled access violation (AV), 632 errors, or 614 errors on symmetric multiprocessing (SMP) computers running SQL Server if there are multiple users dropping and creating tables concurrently. This is true of TEMPDB as well as user databases. The timing involved for this bug to occur makes it very rare, and there are no side effects outside of the client being terminated.

STATUS

Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in Microsoft SQL Server version 6.0. This problem was corrected in Service Pack 2 for SQL Server version 6.0. For more information, contact your primary support provider.

WORKAROUND

Set the sp_configure "SMP concurrency" option to 1.
