collation conflict in sqlserver 2005

  • Hi,

    we are facing the collation conflict in sqlserver 2005

    we are using windows server 2008 & sqlserver 2005 DEV Edition

    after installing sqlserver 2005 (default) instance in above windows box .

    checked in the server properties collation : Latin1_General_CI_AI

    we restored out client DB into our server Now DB collation it is showing : SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS

    we are facing the Collation conflict issue from application end

    EXEC with some ---------- dateformat(yyyy-mm--dd)& ------ yyyy-mm--dd

    error message :

    ERROR cannot resolve collation conflict between " SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS" and " Latin1_General_CI_AI" in the equal

    any sugession/solution to fix this collation issue.

  • The server collation determines the collation for system databases (master, model, tempdb, msdb).

    Probably some procedure makes use of temporary tables, created on tempdb, hence the collation conflict.

    I would create a new instance with the same collation as the customer server.

    Home this helps

    Sure! Just don't be so impatient... We are all volunteers on these forums and we answer questions during our free time.

    To set the collation during setup, you have to uncheck the "Hide advanced configuration options" checkbox:

    Then you can select the collation from the list. The one you are looking for is showing on this picture:
