I am getting an error on a replication subscriber that had previously been working fine. This is the error message:
Command attempted:
if object_id(N'sys.sp_MSrestoresavedforeignkeys', 'P') < 0 exec sys.sp_MSrestoresavedforeignkeys
(Transaction sequence number: 0x0006FC5A0009580901F900000000, Command ID: 1)
Error messages:

Some details:
It is a push subscription from a SQL Server 2008 R2 publisher to a SQL Server 2012 subscriber that is a member of an AlwaysOn Availability Group.
Two things changed before this error appeared:
- I added a new table to the subscription and marked for re-initialization.
- There was a typo in the subscriber DB name so I dropped the subscription, renamed the database and then recreated the subscription to point at the correct database name.
- There are other tables in the subscription database besides those that are being replicated.
I have verified that both databases are using the same collation and that all columns of replicated tables also have the same collation.
Probably recreating the publication and subscription would fix the issue but I'm reluctant to do this because I don't want to create the snapshot again due to the concurrency issues it creates on the publisher db.

Do publisher and subscriber have the same server collation?

Yes they do. Both are Latin1_General_CI_AS

I had to take the nuclear option and recreate the subscription database. Now it is working again.
If anyone has a suggestion as to the original cause however I would be grateful, because I don't want to have to blow away my database if this happens again.
