Consider the following scenario:
- In Microsoft Commerce Server 2007 or in Microsoft Commerce Server 2009, you create a product definition that contains many multilingual product properties.
- The multilingual product properties are specified to use default values.
- You create a catalog and then select many languages for the catalog.
- In the catalog, you try to create a new product by using the product definition that you created.
In this scenario, you cannot create the new product. Additionally, you receive an error message that resembles the following:
An exception occurred in the 'CatalogWebService' Web service. Exception details follow:
Microsoft.CommerceServer.Catalog.CatalogDatabaseException: Failed to apply default values. ---> System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: The incoming tabular data stream (TDS) remote procedure call (RPC) protocol stream is incorrect. Too many parameters were provided in this RPC request. The maximum is 2100.
For example, you create a product definition that contains 150 multilingual properties. You select 14 languages for a catalog. When you try to create a new product in the catalog, you experience this problem.
Commerce Server 2007 and Commerce Server 2009 use a single SQL UPDATE statement to apply all default values to the product properties in the back-end Microsoft SQL Server database. When the number of parameters for the statement exceeds the maximum number of parameters that SQL Server allows, SQL Server reports an error to Commerce Server.
