Process 52 generated an access violation. SQL Server is terminating this process.

  • Please help!  My Microsoft SQL Server 2000 SP 3 instance installed on a server running Microsoft Windows 2000 Server SP 4 is writing dump files (SQLDump0046.mdmp).  I'm trying to figure out why. 

    When I run the query below on my problem server, yet another dump is written.  When I run the query on any other server, there's no problem.

    SELECT   *

    FROM   ::fn_listextendedproperty(NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL, NULL)

    I've checked Google, this site, and others all to not much avail. 

    Please let me know if you have seen this error before, need more info, or could suggest somewhere else to look for answers.

    Thanks in advance for your time.

  • First, sorry this is not an answer that you are looking for. But I would like to let you know that if you don't get any good response soon, I really recommend to create support case with MSFT. Because Acess Violation, AV, error log is very vague, there are a lot to check. Have you applied SP3a or SP3? If you have SP3 then, apply SP3a first before you create case with MSFT because SP3 has so many known issue.

    Just my 2 cents
