Then that is weird.  I've never come across that behavior before.

Any chance that the UPDATE is missing updating something that is causing the DELETE to fail?

My first thought here is that it is rolling back when the cursor ends.  Do you have ANY "ROLLBACK" statements inside your loop or after the loop but before the...

I think it depends on your requirements.  I don't have any Azure instances to monitor, but I like SQL Monitor from RedGate.  The price is right and the tool works...

Scott - that is a good point.  Time of day isn't the best use case for limiting stored procedure execution.  A better use case would be for something like modifying...

Looking at your log there, it says that the edition of SQL Server that installed the service does not support SQL Server Agent.

I would double check your installation media to...

Some people really like the debug feature.  My thoughts on it are that it was a pain to get set up and it seemed to be very inconsistent on my...

The error messages related to the SQL Agent sound like something is broken in MSDB.  If this is a NEW 2019 install, I would do an uninstall and reinstall it...

My opinion - I would refrain from any "execute all" or "read all" permissions.  They are risky.  I would operate on a least privilege model and create roles to access...

I think that that is best practice anyway.  My understanding is that on a server, you want as little overhead as possible which means not installing additional tools like SSMS. ...

So it sounds like you want to adjust it to return the string minus the last character.

I would use a combination of LEFT and LEN (not 100% sure on the...

running the script from C:\ though is different than running it from c:\temp or any other folder.  If "file.bat" is using relative paths instead of absolute paths, it may be...

Depending on how you are doing the move from work table to reporting table, that could be the problem.  Is it a wipe and reload?  Is it a merge?  Is...

I generally don't install SSMS on the server.  To me it feels like extra overhead for little benefit.  I have SSMS installed on my workstation and I connect to the...

As a random guess (I can't see the code in your bat file), it is either using relative paths OR is using network shared drives.

Since SQL says it ran successfully,...

As a thought, are you using NOLOCK?

As a second thought, are you doing any transforms on the data in the Data Flow task that MAY be changing the data?

Another thought,...
