Symptoms

Consider the following scenario:

  • You have a database that uses the BULK_LOGGED or SIMPLE recovery model in Microsoft SQL Server 2008, SQL Server 2008 R2, SQL Server 2012, or SQL Server 2014.

  • You turn on the SET XACT_ABORT switch.

  • You try to run multiple BULK INSERT statements in a single-distributed transaction.

In this scenario, the BULK INSERT statement may fail, and you receive the following error message:


Location: pageref.cpp:913

Expression: IS_OFF (BUF_MINLOGGED, m_buf->bstat) || pageModifyType != PageModifyType_Contents || GetPagePtr ()->IsTextPage ()
SPID: 56

Process ID: 2136

Msg 3624, Level 20, State 1, Line 7

A system assertion check has failed. Check the SQL Server error log for details. Typically, an assertion failure is caused by a software bug or data corruption. To check for database corruption, consider running DBCC CHECKDB. If you agreed to send dumps to Microsoft during setup, a mini dump will be sent to Microsoft. An update might be available from Microsoft in the latest Service Pack or in a QFE from Technical Support.

Msg 0, Level 20, State 0, Line 0

A severe error occurred on the current command. The results, if any, should be discarded.

Additionally, a mini-dump file may be generated in the SQL Server log folder.

Note This issue usually occurs when SQL Server Integration Services (SSIS) is used. For example, Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MS DTC) is involved to start distributed transactions together with SET XACT_ABORT ON if the TransactionOption package level property is set to Required.

Cause

This issue occurs because of an error in SQL Server 2008, SQL Server 2008 R2, SQL Server 2012, or SQL Server 2014.

Each new cumulative update for SQL Server contains all the hotfixes and all the security fixes that were included with the previous cumulative update. Check out the latest cumulative updates for SQL Server:



Workaround

To work around this issue, set the database to the Full recovery model.

Status

Microsoft has confirmed that this is a problem in the Microsoft products that are listed in the "Applies to" section.
