FIX: An access violation occurs when you run an SSIS 2005 package that uses Lookup transformations

Microsoft distributes Microsoft SQL Server 2005 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 2005 fix release.

SYMPTOMS

Consider the following scenario:
  • You have a Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Integration Services (SSIS 2005) package.
  • The SSIS 2005 package transfers data by using Lookup transformations.
  • The Lookup transformations that are in the SSIS 2005 package run in parallel.
  • The Lookup transformations are cache enabled and share the same cache area.
  • You try to run the SSIS 2005 package.
In this scenario, the tasks of the Lookup transformations crash, and you cannot run the SSIS 2005 package successfully.

When this problem occurs, an access violation occurs, and a mini-dump file is generated in the SQL Server Error Dumps folder. By default, the mini-dump file is generated in the following folder:
%ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Shared\ErrorDumps\SQLDmpr<number>.mdmp

CAUSE

When the same cache is used by components that are running in parallel data flows, a failure occurs when the shared cache is synchronized. Therefore, the problem that is mentioned in the "Symptoms" section occurs.

RESOLUTION

The fix for this issue was first released in Cumulative Update 9 for SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 3. For more information about this cumulative update package, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
980176  (http://kbalertz.com/Feedback.aspx?kbNumber=980176/ ) Cumulative update package 9 for SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 3
Note Because the builds are cumulative, each new fix release contains all the hotfixes and all the security fixes that were included with the previous SQL Server 2005 fix release. We recommend that you consider applying the most recent fix release that contains this hotfix. For more information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
960598  (http://kbalertz.com/Feedback.aspx?kbNumber=960598/ ) The SQL Server 2005 builds that were released after SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 3 was released
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 hotfixes are created for specific SQL Server service packs. You must apply a SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 3 hotfix to an installation of SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 3. By default, any hotfix that is provided in a SQL Server service pack is included in the next SQL Server service pack.

STATUS

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

Community Feedback System

Very often, it takes hours to solve a problem. Very often, you've looked high and low, and have tried a lot of solutions. When you finally found it, chances are, it was because someone else helped you. Here's your chance to give back. Use our community feedback tool to let others know what worked for you and what didn't.

Please also understand that the community feedback system is not warranted to be correct, it's simply a system that we've built to let people try and help each other. If something in a feedback response doesn't make sense to you, or you're not comfortable making changes that the feedback talks about (like registry edits), please consult a professional.
