how you should implement error handling when you write stored procedures, including when you call them from ADO. The other article, Error Handling in sql stored procedure try catch SQL Server - a Background, gives a deeper description of the idiosyncrasies

with error handling in SQL Server and ADO. That article is in some sense part one in the series. oracle stored procedure error handling However, you can read this article without reading the background article first, and if you are not a very experienced user of SQL Server, I recommend you to start here. In https://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms179296(v=sql.105).aspx places there are links to the background article, if you want more information about a certain issue. Note: this article is aimed at SQL2000 and earlier versions of SQL Server. SQL2005 offers significantly improved methods for error handling with TRY-CATCH. This article is not apt if you are using SQL 2005 or later. I don't have a complete article on error handling http://www.sommarskog.se/error-handling-II.html for SQL 2005, but I have an unfinished article with a section Jumpstart Error Handling that still can be useful.

Getting the Return Value from a Stored Procedure Acknowledgements and Feedback Revision History Introduction Error handling in stored procedures is a very tedious task, because T-SQL offers no exception mechanism, or any On Error Goto. All you have is the global variable @@error which you need to check after each statement for a non-zero value to be perfectly safe. If you call a stored procedure, you also need to check the return value from the procedure. In fact, th

Join them; it only takes a minute: Sign up What is the best practice use of SQL stored procedure Server T-SQL error handling? up vote 20 down vote favorite 12 We have a large application mainly written in SQL Server 7.0, where all database calls are to stored procedures. We are now running SQL Server 2005, which offers more T-SQL features. After just about every SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, and DELETE, the @@ROWCOUNT and @@ERROR get captured into local variables and evaluated for problems. If there is a stored procedure error problem the following is done: error message output parameter is set rollback (if necessary) is done info is written (INSERT) to log table return with a error number, unique to this procedure (positive if fatal, negative is warning) They all don't check the rows (only when it is known) and some differ with more or less log/debug info. Also, the rows logic is somethimes split from the error logic (on updates where a concurrency field is checked in the WHERE clause, rows=0 means someone else has updated the data). However, here is a fairly generic example: SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE SELECT @Error=@@ERROR, @Rows=@@ROWCOUNT IF @Rows!=1 OR @Error!=0 BEGIN SET @ErrorMsg='ERROR 20, ' + ISNULL(OBJECT_NAME(@@PROCID), 'unknown') + ' - unable to ???????? the ????.' IF @@TRANCOUNT >0 BEGIN ROLLBACK END SET @LogInfo=ISNULL(@LogInfo,'')+'; '+ISNULL(@ErrorMsg,'')+ + ' @YYYYY=' +dbo.FormatString(@YYYYY) +', @XXXXX=' +dbo.FormatString(@XXXXX) +', Error=' +dbo.FormatString(@Error) +', Rows=' +dbo.FormatString(@Rows) INSERT INTO MyLogTable (...,Message) VALUES (....,@LogInfo) RETURN 20 END I am looking into replacing how we do this with the TRY-CATCH T-SQL. I've read about the TRY...CATCH (Transact-SQL) syntax, so don't just post some summary of that. I'm looking for any good ideas and how best to do or improve our error handling m
| Tags: Stored Procedures, SQL Server 2005, Transactions, SQL Server 2008 Features, Error Handling This article covers the basics of TRY CATCH error handling in T-SQL introduced in SQL Server 2005. It includes the usage of common functions to return information about the error and using the TRY CATCH block in stored procedures and transactions. SQL Server uses the following syntax to capture errors in Transact-SQL statements: BEGIN TRY SELECT [First] = 1 SELECT [Second] = 1/0 SELECT [Third] = 3 END TRY BEGIN CATCH PRINT 'An error occurred' END CATCH This returns the following output: First ----------- 1 (1 row(s) affected) Second ----------- (0 row(s) affected) An error occurred A key difference from SQL Server 2000 is that execution is halted when SQL Server encounters an error. At that point execution transfers to the CATCH block. This error isn't returned to the client application or calling program. The TRY CATCH block consumes the error. Error Functions Inside the CATCH block there are a number of specialized functions to return information about the error. BEGIN TRY SELECT [Second] = 1/0 END TRY BEGIN CATCH SELECT [Error_Line] = ERROR_LINE(), [Error_Number] = ERROR_NUMBER(), [Error_Severity] = ERROR_SEVERITY(), [Error_State] = ERROR_STATE() SELECT [Error_Message] = ERROR_MESSAGE() END CATCH Second ----------- (0 row(s) affected) Error_Line Error_Number Error_Severity Error_State ----------- ------------ -------------- ----------- 2 8134 16 1 (1 row(s) affected) Error_Message --------------------------------------------------- Divide by zero error encountered. (1 row(s) affected) These are the functions you can use inside a CATCH block. These functions all return NULL if they are called from outside a CATCH block. ERROR_NUMBER. The number of the error that occurred. This is similar to @@ERROR except that it will return the same number for the duration of the CATCH block. ERROR_MESSAGE. The complete text of the error message including any substiture para
