FIX: DBCC DBREINDEX May Cause a LOAD TRAN to Fail with Error 1511 (233258)
The information in this article applies to:
- Microsoft SQL Server 6.5 Service Pack 5 and 5a
This article was previously published under Q233258 BUG #: 18717 (SQLBUG_65) SYMPTOMS A transaction log dump that was generated after a DBCC
DBREINDEX was issued on a huge table of the database may cause a subsequent
load of the log dump to fail with error 1511, and will leave the database in a
suspect state. You will see the following errors: Msg
1511, Level 20, State 4
Sort cannot be reconciled with transaction log
Msg 4313, Level 16, State 1
Recreate index failed for table %d,
index %d. The table has been left in an inconsistent state, and the index is
missing, so LOAD TRANSACTION errors may result. Run DBCC CHECKTABLE on the
table if LOAD TRANSACTION succeeds. Error while redoing log row in database
'%s'. Rid pageid is %x and row num is %x. The following conditions must be true for this problem to
occur:
- The transaction log was generated with SQL Server 6.5
Service Pack 5 or later.
- Before the log was dumped, a DBCC DBREINDEX was performed
on this database on a large table's clustered index and the SORTED_DATA_REORG
option was used.
- The table also has at least one nonclustered
index.
WORKAROUND To work around this problem, instead of doing a DBCC
DBREINDEX, perform an explicit DROP INDEX and CREATE INDEX for every index on
the table.
STATUS Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SQL Server
version 6.5. This problem has been corrected in the Post Service Pack 5a Update
for Microsoft SQL Server version 6.5. To install the Post Service Pack 5a
Update, you must have either SQL Server 6.5 SP5 or SP5a installed.
For information about how to download and install the SQL Server 6.5 Service
Pack 5a, refer to the following article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base: 197177 INF: How to Obtain SQL Server 6.5 Service Pack 5a
If you already have SQL Server 6.5 SP5 or SP5a installed, you can
