569541

AFter changing the name of the table with sp_rename triggers defined on the table may no longer working.

569567

In the event of a hang, the system 'ps' command will show an extra server process running. That is, in a two engine system 'ps' would show three server processes rather than the expected two. If the error results in dead engine on the secondary companion, the error log will contain messages indicating the engine hosting the JVM has exited with a signal 11.

571072

Create Table or Alter Table with Case statement that uses an IN list or NOT column NOT IN list or the equivalent of those expressions in a computed column will cause stacktrace.

If the master database has a secondary truncation point set during an upgrade from 12.5.x to 15.0.x, then an error 950 (Database 'master' is currently offline. Please wait and try your command again later) may be raised. To avoid this issue, preupgrade or upgrade will report an error if there is a secondary truncation point set.

574264

In rare circumstances, the message "Current process (...) infected with signal 11(SIGSEGV)" together with modules like (bool PopEmit < SerialCost,SerialProps > ::emitMatchProperties, PopBase*OptGlobal::_GblAddTopLevel maybe be encountered for queries involving statement cache, literal autoparameterization, compatibility mode and OR terms.

575115

If there is a mismatch between the datatypes of the constants in the IN/OR list and the respective column, special OR strategy might not be used. ASE now provides a optcriteria 'use_mixed_dt_sarg_under_specialor' which when enabled, will allow special OR strategy to be considered in case of mixed datatype SARGs in the IN/OR list. Additionally, traceflag 434 has been provided to turn OFF this feature. The traceflag setting overrides the optcriteria setting.

576647

If error 249 occurs during and it does not appear to be due to constant in the query and the query has not started execution i.e. compilation is still proceeding, then this error may occur due to expression histogram processing. This can be verified by looking at the optdiag output for the columns in the query, and determining if there is a possible conversion error that could occur with one of the histogram step values. The change in behavior will be to suppress the error and use magic numbers for the selectivity of that column when used in expression histogramming.

576708

Inserting a NULL value into a TEXT column of a proxy table with an INSTEAD OF TRIGGER may result in an assertion failure involving the module eval_locator_bi().

Query on monSysStatement table causes timeslice error with large statement pipe.

579962

Full index scans may be selected over limiting index scans in scenarios where there is a single or no rows in the table and the costings are the same for both indices. An index scan is "limiting" when the key's major attribute has a sarg on it. The full-index scan may be selected if it has a minor optimizable attribute and it's ID is less than that of the limiting index. IDs increase in the order of index creation. Full-index scan strategies were never considerend in pre-15.0.

584770

For srvbuild, the default available physical memory value of OOB task is shown as 80% of RAM even if this value is larger than the "max shared memory" set on the operating system.

584851

If a query involves an extended column (a GROUP BY column which does not appear in the select list) and if the select list includes an encrypted column, the execution of the query will hit a stack trace reporting a null encryption key. An exemplary query is: table t2 (a2 int, b2 int encrypt with key1) select t2.* from t1, t2 where t1.a1 = t2.a2 group by t1.a1

585079

When an instead-of trigger contains a query that accesses the inserted or deleted log tables and the schema counts of the view upon which the instead-of trigger is created and the log (syslogs) do not match, a 11060 error may be raised, resulting from too many (10) attempts to recompile the query plan without succeeding.

585168

Performance issue might be hit for a query with up to 5 joining tables involving cartesian products and/or theta-only joins.

588594

When the optimizer chooses a query plan that includes and Nary-Nested-Loop Join Operator (as seen in showplan output) and at least one of the Scan Operators under the Join is doing dynamic partition elimination (also shown in showplan), the query may return too few rows. This problem ocurrs in queries with at least three tables and which contain join predicates involving columns of the partitioned table that are not part of the partition condition of that table.

588703

Some of the qualifying rows could be missed by an UPDATE statement using at least 2 tables other than the updated table (either directly in the UPDATE statement's FROM clause or within EXISTS/IN subqueries) and the join of these 2 tables involves an expression which contains one of these tables' columns which is also in the UPDATE's SET clause to compute the new values.

589061

TEXTPTR() builtin function may sometimes return truncated result. Pending zeros are removed.

589473

590760

A transaction dump that has a DROP and CREATE index commands logged for a clustered index with sorted_data, max_rows_per_page and fillfactor options used, may result after load in a corrupted table where errors 692, 605, 2509, and 2525 could be reported.

591217

The ASE server could potentially dump core in final stages of a server shutdown under the condition of stale PCI Bridge arranged JavaVM activities. This error is not a dangerous or worrisome event but the core files as left are ugly and consume lots of file system space.

592022

The message "timeslice - < number > , current process infected" together with a stack trace which includes the modules "dbts_insert", 'dbts_commits_addxdes', 'xls_test_set_lrdata' and 'ha_session_dealloc' may be reported in the error log when CHAINED transactions are used in and HA environment.

Introduce configurable control for allowing or disallowing loading native libraries from within the PCA/JVM using the load and loadLibrary methods in the java.lang.System and java.lang.Runtime classes.

592603

When compatibility mode is enabled and a stored procedure is executed, ASE may stacktrace in the function ind__itagsetup(). This happens if a query in a stored procedure refers to a table that is created and dropped inside the stored procedure and that stored procedure happens to recompile after the table has been dropped.

592605

ASE may report 3474 and 3478 fatal errors if bulk-insert ctlib application making use of multi databases transaction needs to rollback.

592737

After CR 531964 changes, sysprocesses.physical_io maps to piotot which is only incremented at the end of each statement because of which monProcessActivity had to be used for tracking i/o activity for running query. The physical_io should report pbufread\pbufwrite which are incremented as each i/o completes.

593117

Unexpected errors may happen as a side effect of the compilation of SELECT INTO #TABLE statament. Errorlog will report module s_normalize. Also under some very rare circumstances on a heavy load systems a risk of random memory corruptions exists.

593582

595825

Duplicate rows may be inserted into a table that has a non-unique clustered index and that has one or more BIT columns even though the option, allow_dup_row is not set. For duplicate rows to be inserted, the total number of BIT columns in a row must not be an exact multiple of the number of BITs that can be stored in a BYTE (8) - this is a necesary, but not sufficient condition.

595988

If $SYBASE starts with /net, srvbuild[res], sqlloc[res], and sqlupgrade[res] report error: unable to load localization file < path > .
