Symptoms
Assume that you try to use the Bulk Copy Program (BCP) utility to export data from an instance of Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 to a data file. However, an error occurs when the BCP utility fetches several rows of data. For example, the following "824" error is generated in the SQL Server error log:
Date Time spid51 Error: 824, Severity: 24, State: 2.
Date Time spid51 SQL Server detected a logical consistency-based I/O error: incorrect pageid (expected 1:43686; actual 0:0). It occurred during a read of page (1:43686) in database ID 23 at offset 0x0000001554c000 in file 'FilePath\Filename'. Additional messages in the SQL Server error log or system event log may provide more detail. This is a severe error condition that threatens database integrity and must be corrected immediately. Complete a full database consistency check (DBCC CHECKDB). This error can be caused by many factors; for more information, see SQL Server Books Online.
In this situation, the BCP utility incorrectly returns the value "0," which indicates that the data export operation was successful.
Note This issue only affects the BCP utility. Other bulk insertion methods handle the error message correctly.
