Microsoft distributes Microsoft SQL Server 2012 fixes as one downloadable file. Because the fixes are cumulative, each new release contains all the hotfixes and all the security fixes that were included with the previous SQL Server 2012 fix release.

Symptoms

Assume that you try to extract a large volume of data from SAP Business Warehouse (SAP BW) by using Microsoft Connector 1.0 for SAP Business Intelligence (SAP BI) in a Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Integration Services (SSIS 2012) package. However, you receive the following error message:

[SAP BW Source] Error: System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException: Index and length must refer to a location within the string.
Parameter name: length
at System.String.InternalSubStringWithChecks(Int32 startIndex, Int32 length, Boolean fAlwaysCopy)
at Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.SapBw.Components.OHSExtractor.ExtractNow(Boolean InRuntimeMode, String GatewayHost, String GatewayService, String ProgramID, String ProcessChain, String DestinationName, String ExecutionMode, String PropertyRequestID, Int32 Timeout)

Resolution

This issue is fixed by the SP1 refresh of the SapBI.msi file. The refreshed version of the SapBI.msi file is available on the SQL Server 2012 Feature Pack SP1 page at the following Microsoft website:
