: fatal exception c0000005 EXCEPTION_ACCESS_VIOLATION

[Simon S]

Hi guys

Recently, I noticed a monthly-run stored procedure (sp_insertAnnualRenewalLetterPrintedStatus) has been causing the aformentioned error, and it ended up creating all these .dmp files...
This stored proc was created 10 months ago, and the error only started happenin' for the last 3-4 months! Also, for approx. every one out of 10 times the stored proc ran OK!

Enclosed here is a sample content at the beginning of these .dmp files...
Anyone can shed some light? THANKS IN ADVANCE

Hi Simon,

All I can make of it is that it is a permission issue.
Is the stored procedure owner the same as the owner of all objects accessed in the procedure? If not then SQL security will check the permissions on all of the objects the stored procedure is accessing, disregarding the 'exec' permission on the stored procedure. So the successful execution of the procedure depends on who is executing it.
Hopefully this helps finding the cause of this.

I was recently looking into a similar exception error on Microsoft Technet This appears to be a date conversion problem. Try looking up article Q269884
on MS Technet site.
