We have received the below error on our SQL Server Errorlog (SQL 2008 R2)
Could you please advice on what could be the problem?

Error: 17836, Severity: 20, State: 14.
Length specified in network packet payload did not match number of bytes read; the connection has been closed. Please contact the vendor of the client library. [CLIENT: 163.164.107.201]

I have a dumb question here, On my SQL 2008 instance, the error message doesn’t read “Server: Msg 245″, instead it just reads “Msg 245″ etc. Notice the “Server:” missing. Is there a way i can get it to add the server:? This is needed for a validation being done with our code.

“Error 50013, severity 16, state 1 was raised, but no message with that error number was found in sys.messages. If error is larger than 50000, make sure the user-defined message is added using sp_addmessage. “

This error is happened when log shipping failed.

I need a help on sql sever error log.

Problem Description:

My production site was down because a simple select query was taking too much time and sql server connection time out throws.
Indexes are there on the table but while investigating we found the table scan due to the query was taking time,so what we did we create another index and it worked out.

My Question:

How I will get the error report or log in sql server.

Note: I read in some blog sql server only maintain log for last 6 session.

Please provide me the table name where I will get the correct root cause on a particular date.

I have one requirement for error handling where I want to capture a particular record that caused the error and due to which column the error occured.

For Example

If my destination column is int and I am trying to insert a char value from the source table. In this case I want to find out the column and name of the source table and that particular record(any column value for that record)

Please let me know your suggestion on this.

A bad example:

Say you check for a positive number X at the beginning of the procedure. If it’s negative you throw “X is negative” with state 1.

At the end of your procedure, you check X again and if it’s negative you throw “X is negative” and set the state to any number 2-127 just so that if you were to look it up in an errors listing that you know if it’s state 1 it’s because X started negative, if it’s state 2 it’s because X ended negative.

In most cases you will change your text string but you may want the string to represent the type of error and the state to differentiate between each place the error may be generated.

In short I cant think of a useful application and it will almost always be the same number.

get a test server.
downlaod the eval edition
dirty your hands :-)

Namely, i’ve got the following error during a very large script execution:
Error: 17053, Severity: 16, State: 1.
C:\XYZLOG1.LDF: Operating system error 112(There is not enough space on the disk.)

My questions are:
1) Can we tell whether some data was or wasn’t written to database? And we need to reaply the script, eventually?

2) Why the severity was 16, not 17 ???
We have run out of the resources in this case!

what is the purpose of is_event_logged column in sys.messages table.

For example

if i set the value to 1 , will the error message will be logged in error log.

if it is 0, where the error messages will be logged?

Error can be generated using RAISEERROR function. For more detail please visit my blog:

How can i generate error base on serverity or error number.

I have tried but could not generate alert.

for eg: if i am excuting insert query and it returns an error like ‘ incorrect syntax error’
is it is recorded somewhere
if yes..? where..?

How can we get the error message captuerd in a variable ,
i am getting the error number but i need the exact error message.
For example while doing to bulk insert i am getting truncation
error at line number 1 and column number 2. I want this to be captured in variable. Is that possible.

Thanks,
Prasanna
