随着Sybase被完全整合到SAP下,Sybase原来的支持网站被SAP Support Portal取代。
只有购买了SAP服务的用户才能使用账号登录SAP Support Portal进行介质下载、补丁升级、报Incident等。
考虑到Sybase数据库的初学者或者没有购买原厂服务的Sybase客户情况,现提供SAP ASE/IQ/RS/SDK/SQL Anywhere/PB等产品的BUG信息。
在SAP Support Portal网站或者google上搜索Targeted CR List for ASE,可以看到针对不同版本的CR(CR表示Change Request)简单描述信息列表。
需要注意的是:Targeted CR List for ASE列出的CR虽然绝大多数是BUG,但有一些是更改需求。
以下提供SAP ASE/IQ/RS/SDK/SQL Anywhere/PB等产品的BUG信息!

2) the offline log X contained transactions that started from an early log, say Y; and

3) the log Y contained transactions started from an earlier log, say Z.

Transaction log Z may have already been deleted. This problem is fixed now.

Description
If an application's operating system used a multibyte character set, which was different from the character set of the database being unload by the Unload utility dbunload, then dbunload could have generated an invalid reload.sql script, and dbunload -an could have failed with a syntax error. Note that dbunload -an turns off character set translation so the character set used by dbunload in that case is the same as the database character set. For example, running dbunload -an on a Chinese (cp936) machine to unload and recreate a UTF8 database could have failed with a syntax error, or could have crashed. This has been fixed.

On Windows systems, when selecting numeric values from ASE 12.5.0.1, the iAnywhere Solution 9 ASE Wire Protocol driver version 4.20.00.06, would have failed with the error:



"[ODBC Sybase Wire Protocol driver][SQL Server] Arithmetic overflow during implicit conversion of NUMERIC value '-2.200000000' to a NUMERIC field."



The problem is due to the maximum precision of a numeric column on ASE server. This has been fixed in ASE 12.5.0.3. Version 4.20.00.63 of the ASE driver works around the problem. To upgrade to this driver, the following files need to be changed:



wqdb219.dll

wqdb219r.dll

Description
A cursor for a query with a single group by expression, was incorrectly qualified to be of type 'sensitive'.



For example:

"select sum(T.x) from T"



This has been fixed. Depending on the desired cursor type, the server may change the cursor type accordingly, and return a warning. For example, under ODBC, if the desired cursor type for a cursor of a single groupby query is KEYSET-DRIVEN, the actual cursor type is determined to be STATIC.

In Transact-SQL stored procedures, cursor names in DECLARE CURSOR statements were required to be unique. It was not possible to conditionally declare a cursor, then use a common set of statements to access the cursor. Now, DECLARE CURSOR statements in Transact-SQL procedures are treated as executable statements, and may appear anywhere in a procedure. The cursor declaration takes effect when the statement is executed and remains in effect until a DEALLOCATE CURSOR statement is executed or until the procedure completes. In Watcom-SQL procedures, cursor names must still be unique and cursor declarations must appear with variable declarations at the start of a BEGIN..END block.

Description
When using timestamp-based downloads with MobiLink and an Oracle consolidated database, special steps are required to ensure that all changes will be downloaded. Otherwise uncommitted changes from before a download may be missed in downloads that occur after the changes are committed, assuming that triggers are used to record "last modified" timestamps for each row. In other RDBMSes, the download will block until changes are committed, assuming MobiLink's default isolation level, so changes are not missed.



To help download scripts avoid this problem, the MobiLink server now sets the next "last download time" to the start time of the oldest open transaction. This ensures that all changes will be picked up in the next synchronization that occurs after they are committed. The Oracle account used the by the MobiLink server must have permission for the V_$TRANSACTION Oracle system view, otherwise the following warning message will be displayed:



Unable to access ORACLE table 'v_$transaction'. Access is needed in order to ensure no data is missed if using timestamp-based downloads.



Note that only SYS can grant this access, and it must be granted for the base V_$TRANSACTION view (V$TRANSACTION is a synonym for the V_$TRANSACTION view, and hence cannot have permission granted on it directly). The syntax is:



grant select on SYS.V_$TRANSACTION to <user_name>;



Workaround:

For earlier versions of the MobiLink server, equivalent functionality can be achieved with the following procedure:



The simplest way to make sure that all changes are downloaded, assuming a trigger is used to maintain a last_modifed marker for each row, is to change the next "last download time" to be the earliest start time of the open transactions. MobiLink offers the modify_next_last_dowload_timestamp connection event for modifying the next "last download time", but it is invoked at the end of the download transaction, and the new value needs to be determined at the beginning of the download transaction. So the value needs to be determined in the begin_download connection event, and used in the modify_next_last_download_timestamp event. In this example the value is stored in a package variable between the events.



Here are detailed instructions:



1. Ensure that the MobiLink connection (i.e. Oracle user) has permission to access the V$TRANSACTION Oracle system view. Only SYS can grant this access, and it must be granted for the base V_$TRANSACTION view (V$TRANSACTION is a synonym for the V_$TRANSACTION view, and hence cannot have permission granted on it directly):



grant select on SYS.V_$TRANSACTION to <user_name>;



It is essential for the user to have the permission directly, rather than through a role, because a stored procedure does not have role privileges.



If GRANT access is not wanted on the whole view, instead define a view that only allows access to the required start_time column, as in the following example:



create view transaction_start_times

as

select start_time from v$transaction;



grant select on transaction_start_times to public;



2. Create a package with a variable to hold the timestamp value (use DATE type instead of TIMESTAMP for Oracle 8), and procedures to set and get it (from MobiLink events):



create or replace package SyncVars

as

procedure SetDownloadTimestamp;

function GetDownloadTimestamp return timestamp;

end SyncVars;



create or replace package body SyncVars

as

DownloadTimestamp timestamp;



procedure SetDownloadTimestamp

as

begin

select nvl( min( to_timestamp( start_time, 'mm/dd/rr hh24:mi:ss' ) ), localtimestamp )

into DownloadTimestamp

from v$transaction;

end SetDownloadTimestamp;



function GetDownloadTimestamp return timestamp

as

begin

return DownloadTimestamp;

end GetDownloadTimestamp;



end SyncVars;





3. Add a begin_download connection script to determine the timestamp value:



exec ml_add_lang_connection_script( 'version?', 'begin_download', 'SQL','begin SyncVars.SetDownloadTimestamp(); end;' );



4. Add a modify_next_last_download_timestamp connection script to replace the timestamp that will be used by MobiLink:



exec ml_add_lang_connection_script( 'version?','modify_next_last_download_timestamp', 'SQL','begin ? := GetDownloadTimestamp(); end;' );



Then the table download_cursor scripts just need to use the usual 'WHERE last_modified >= ?' clause, since the value that MobiLink passes in for the question mark will be the timestamp value determined in the previous synchronization.

Using AWE on Windows 2003 would very likely have caused some or all of the following:

1) a blue screen error 76 with text "Process has locked pages",

2) event log messages indicating that a "driver is leaking locked pages",

3) ASA fatal errors indicating the reads or writes were failing with the error code 1453 (ERROR_WORKING_SET_QUOTA), and/or

4) other generic fatal read/write errors



Microsoft has fixed this problem in Service Pack 1 of Windows 2003. It is our understanding that no fix will be made by Microsoft prior to the release of Service Pack 1.



In order to prevent these serious consequences the database server can no longer be started on Windows 2003 pre-SP1 while using AWE. Any attempt to do so will result in a startup error "Windows 2003 does not properly support AWE caching before Service Pack 1"



At the time this description was written there was no existing Microsoft Knowledge Base (KB) article describing this issue.

Description
Executing a procedure that called a function in an external library could have caused the server to crash if the called routine was using the old-style API. The problem occurred when the function was declared in SQL with fewer arguments than it was actually written to handle. Consider the following example of a user-defined function accepting one output argument.



CREATE FUNCTION "DBA"."MachineName" (out @iMachine char(255))

returns integer external name

'Win32MachineName@C:\\path\\mytools.dll'



begin

declare @iMachine char(255);

call dba.MachineName(@iMachine);

select @iMachine

end



If the actual function was written to accept more than one argument (e.g., int Win32MachineName( char *p1, char *p2 ) ) and the function employed the "callee pops the arguments" protocol, then the stack pointer will be improperly aligned upon return to the caller (the server in this case). It will point to a memory location 4 bytes higher than where it should.



After the user function was called. the server checked, and corrected, the stack misalignment. There was, however, a small window of a few instructions where the stack pointer was misaligned and the server makes some other function calls. This resulted in the top of the stack being corrupted. In previous versions of the server, this did not result in any permanent harm. In more recent versions of the server, an important pointer is correpted, resulting in a crash.



Now, the server pushes and pops extra guard words on the stack so that these unused stack positions will be corrupted instead. The server also now checks for a serious stack underflow and will issue an assertion (103701 "Function parameter list mismatch") and stop rather than crash.

Description
The QAnywhere Agent would have needlessly directed the MobiLink client (dbmlsync)to begin a synchronization process even though the MobiLink server was unreachable. This would have resulted in dbmlsync scanning the transaction log, and then failing the synchronization because it could not to connect to the server. The problem was only noticeable in cases where the transaction log scanning process was expensive and the server went offline and the transmission policy was scheduled. In this case, dbmlsync would cause high CPU usage and then fail to synchronize.



This problem has been fixed by doing a periodic check that the MobiLink server is reachable. This check is done only after a connection failure has occurred. Once the server is reachable again, the check is discontinued. The QAnywhere Agent will not direct dbmlsync to begin the synchronization process if it is known that the MobiLink server is unreachable.

The INSERT ... ON EXISTING UPDATE statement updates an existing row with the new column values.

1. When the row does not exist, the new row is inserted as per the

usual rules of the INSERT statement.

2. If the row exists, and ON EXISTING SKIP is specified, no changes

are made to the row.

3. If the row exists, and ON EXISTING UPDATE is specified, the row is

updated as par the following rules:

(a) All columns that have been explicitly specified in the

INSERT statement are updated with the specified values.

(b) Columns with defaults that are meant to be changed on an

UPDATE are modified accordingly. These special defaults include

"DEFAULT TIMESTAMP", "DEFAULT UTC TIMESTAMP", and

"DEFAULT LAST USER".

(c) Columns with other defaults are not modified unless some

of these are explicitly mentioned with a non default

value in the INSERT statement, in which case these columns

are modified as par rule 3(a) above.

(d) Computed columns are re-evaluated and modified using the new row.

(e) Any other columns are left unchanged.

As an example the following returns a "table not found error" when the table CT1 referenced in the check constraint is not visible to the user executing the LOAD TABLE statement:



grant dba,resource to dbowner

CREATE TABLE dbowner.CT1 ( c1 integer NOT NULL )

CREATE TABLE dbowner.T2 ( c1 integer NOT NULL, check(not c1 = any(select c1 from CT1) ) )

LOAD TABLE dbowner.T2 ... CHECK CONSTRAINTS OFF ...

Description
A multithreaded Embedded SQL application could, depending on timing, have failed with the error "Invalid statement" (SQLCODE -130). For this to have occurred, the application had to use the syntax "EXEC SQL DECLARE ... CURSOR FOR SELECT ..." in code which could be run by multiple threads concurrently. This has been fixed so that the SQL Preprocessor generates code for the syntax "EXEC SQL DECLARE ... CURSOR FOR SELECT ..." that is thread safe.



Note the syntax "EXEC SQL DECLARE ... CURSOR FOR :stmt_num" is thread safe (and is not affected by this problem), while the syntax "EXEC SQL DECLARE ... CURSOR FOR statement_name" is not thread safe (and cannot be made thread safe).

Description
A client could have continuously failed to synchronize messages with a QAnywhere server, using an ASE consolidated database, under the following circumstances:



1 - During the last message synchronization, the server committed the messages from the client but the connection with the client dropped before the client could receive the acknowledgement of that fact.



2 - A new client useed the same message store id as a previous client message id that was abandoned.



The problem was with the QAnywhere system procedure for handling primary key conflicts, ml_qa_handle_error. If QAnywhere is being using with an ASE back-end, the QAnywhere server schema can be patched by dropping and re-creating the procedure from the fixed syncase.sql, (or syncase125.sql), script.



Any new QAnywhere ASE server schemas created with the fixed scripts will not have the problem.

The QAManager.recover() method allows recovery of unacknowledged messages so that they can be re-received. When a receiving QAManager called recover(), re-received a message, then acknowledged the message, the 'received' status of the message was not being synchronized back to the originator of the message. The message repository used by QAManager keeps a list of unacknowledged message IDs. This list was not being cleared by the recover() method, so the message ID of a recovered message was added to this list twice. The fix was to have the recover() method clear the list of unacknowledged message IDs.

Description
The iAnywhere JDBC Driver has been enhanced to support the PreparedStatement.addBatch() method. This method is useful for performing batched (or wide) inserts.



To use this method:

1) An INSERT statement should be prepared using one of the Connection.prepareStatement() methods,

2) The parameters for the prepared insert statement should be set and batched as follows:



for( ... ) // for loop to batch n sets of parameters

{

stmt.set?( 1, ? ); // where stmt is the prepared insert statement from step 1

stmt.set?( 2, ? );

...

stmt.set?(m , ? ); // note that there are m parameters in the statement

stmt.addBatch(); // adds the set or parameters to the batch and moves to the next row of parameters

}

3) The batch should then be executed using the PreparedStatement.executeUpdate() method



It should be noted that only the PreparedStatement.addBatch() method is supported and that the PreparedStatement.executeUpdate() method needs to be called to execute the batch. None of batch methods for the Statement object (i.e. Statement.addBatch(), Statement.clearBatch(), Statement.executeBatch() ) are supported since these methods are completely optional and not very useful. For such static batches, it is best to call Statement.execute() or Statement.executeQuery() on a single string with the batched statements wrapped inside a BEGIN...END.



NOTE 1: BLOB parameters are not supported in batches



NOTE 2: String/Binary parameters are supported but the size of the string/binary parameter is an issue. By default the string/binary parameter is restricted to 255 characters or 510 bytes. The reason for the restriction is due to the underlying ODBC protocol and will not be discussed here. For futher information, it is best to view the documentation on passing arrays of parameters in ODBC. If, however, an application needs to pass larger string or binary parameters within a batch, then an additional method has been provided to increase the size of the string/binary parameter. Note that this method must be called PRIOR to the first addBatch() call. If the method is called after the first addBatch() call, then the new size setting will be ignored. Hence, when calling this extra method to change the size of a string/binary parameter, the application needs to know ahead of time what the maximum string or binary value for that parameter will be.



To use this extra method, you must modify the "code" above as follows:



// need to cast stmt to an IPreparedStatment object in order to change the size of string/binary parameters

ianywhere.ml.jdbcodbc.IPreparedStatement _stmt = (ianywhere.ml.jdbcodbc.IPreparedStatement)stmt;



// now change the size of string parameter 4 from the default 255 characters to 300 characters

_stmt.setBatchStringSize( 4, 300 ); // note string parameters are in "characters"



// change the size of binary parameter 6 from the default 510 bytes to 750 bytes

_stmt.setBatchStringSize( 6, 750 ); // note binary parameters are in bytes



for( ... ) // for loop to batch n sets of parameters where n should not be too large

{

stmt.set?( 1, ? ); // where stmt is the prepared insert statement from step 1

stmt.set?( 2, ? );

...

stmt.set?(m , ? ); // note that there are m parameters in the statement

stmt.addBatch(); // adds the set or parameters to the batch and moves to the next row of parameters

}



The maximum string/binary size of a parameter should be modified with caution. If the maximum is set too high, then the additional memory allocation cost *will* probably override any performance gained from using the batch. Also, there is a good chance the application will not know ahead of time what the maximum string or binary value for a particular parameter is. The recommendation then is to not change the maximum string or binary size of a parameter, but rather to use the batch method until a string or binary value larger than the current/default maximum is encountered. The application can at that point call executeBatch() to execute the parameters that are currently batched, then call the regular set and executeUpdate() method to execute until the large string/binary parameters have been handled, then switch back into batch mode when smaller string/binary parameters are encountered.

If an application was using Java in the database, or was using Remote Data Access with a JDBC class, then there was a possibility that the server may have lost a SQL error. This was most likely to occur if the SQL error was set, but the SQL error did not get reported to the client prior to the VM Garbage Collector running. Due to the asynchronous nature of the VM Garbage Collector, this problem is highly unreproducible. The problem has been fixed.

Description
UltraLite can now be run on Palm NVFS devices, and supports both the record-based and file-based data stores.



This is a summary of UltraLite clarifications for the Palm OS platform.



A. Database

An internal file volume may also be present on some NVFS devices, such as Tungsten T5 handhelds, which can be accessed and used similar to an SD slot. Therefore, ULEnableFileDB is called to store UltraLite databases on either an internal drive (built-in storage card) or external slot (expansion card). Furthermore, the existing connection parameter palm_db=CRID:n is used to specify the data store on either an internal drive or external slot, where n is the volume ordinal from enumerating the mounted volumes, and the default value of n is 0. Tungsten T5, for example, has two volumes, the internal file volume and the SD slot volume. If the device cannot locate a volume with the user-specified volume ordinal, the SQLCODE -82 is reported when opening the database. ULEnablePalmRecordDB is called to store record-based UltraLite databases.



B. Synchronization Conduit

The conduit synchronizes the first UltraLite database which is found on the device. The database lookup sequence is first the record storage, then the file system including internal drive and external slot. The UltraLite database which is intended to be synchronize should be made available as the first one found in that sequence. The conduit has been designed to work like this, since the file-based data store support was first added to the Palm platform.

If a variable was assigned a long string value (>254 character) from a table, and the table was subsequently dropped or truncated, the server would likely have crashed on the next use of the variable.



For example:



begin

declare local temporary table t(c varchar(32767));

declare rv varchar(32767);

insert into t values(repeat('*',5000));

select c into rv from t;

truncate table t;

select lcase(rv) from dummy;

end;



A work around is to concatenate a zero-length string to column value, i.e. use "select c || '' into rv from t" in the example above.

Description
Selectivity estimates for the predicates generated for the KEY JOINs may have been set incorrectly when the User_estimates option was set to 'ENABLED' or 'OVERRIDE-MAGIC'. The side effect of the wrong selectivity estimates may have been bad performance for queries using KEY JOIN syntax. This has now been fixed.



Workarounds:

1) set the option USER_ESTIMATES to DISABLED ( highly recommended ); OR

2) rewrite the KEY JOIN into a JOIN with an ON clause, which must contain the predicates of the form 'primary key column = foreign key column' for all primary key/foreign key columns.

Attempting to use any of the bit-wise operators (&, |, ^, ~) with BIGINT or UNSIGNED BIGINT arguments would have resulted in an error, if one of the argument values was too large to be converted to an INTEGER or UNSIGNED INTEGER. This has been fixed.



Also, the INTTOHEX function now permits UNSIGNED BIGINT arguments.

Description
The Dateadd() function could have produced incorrect results when the time unit was milliseconds, minutes, hours, days, or weeks.



For example:



select dateadd(hour,365*24*7923,'0001-01-01 21:45:37.027'),dateadd(hour,69399300,'0001-01-01 21:45:37.027')



would have resulted in:



'****-09-18 00:00:37.027' '9998-07-01 00:00:37.027'



This has been fixed. Now, the results are:



'7918-09-29 00:00:37.027' '7918-01-15 00:00:37.027'



Similarily, the Datediff() function produced incorrect results when the time unit was milliseconds, minutes, hours, days, or weeks.



For example,



select datediff(minute,'2005-02-03 21:45:37.027','6088-02-26 23:52:37.027')



resulted in a range error. This has been fixed. Now, the result is

The last_download_time (LDT) stored on the consolidated database, would have been incorrectly set during an upload-only synchronization. Note, this wouldn't affect the LDT stored at the remote, and sent up during synchronization, only consolidated-side logic that directly inspected last_download_time in the ml_user or ml_subscription tables would see an incorrect time. The LDT is now set only when there is a download.

Description
When ULPod threw an exception from Connection.Synchronize(), the message field of the exception only contained the string "SQLE_xxx", giving the type of the error, with no reference to the error context parameters. This information was not enough to help diagnose the problem. For example, a UNIQUE constraint violation during download would have caused the error from MobiLink: "download failed with a client error -196", and the UltraLite client side would only received a generic "SQLE_xxx" error string. It would have been very difficult to identify on which table the violation occured.



Now, extra information has been added to the message field of the exception thrown from Connection.Synchronize(). If a download UNIQUE constraint occurred inside UltraLite runtime, the conflicting table's name is added to the error parameters. ULPod will append the first three error parameters to the end of the SQLE_xxx" string, separated by ":". For example, the following message field of a synchronization exception "SQLE_SERVER_SYNCHRONIZATION_ERROR:-10013" tells that the MobiLink server error code is -10013.

Now if a download unique constraint violation error occurs, the conflicting table's name is added as part of the error parameters.

Description
The server could have left connections hanging indefinitely, when receiving multi-piece strings on a heavily loaded system. There was a chance that this problem could also have occurred under other conditions, such as when the network connection between client and server introduced long delays. This was more likely to occur when the number of active requests was larger than the number of tasks that were servicing requests (ie -gn). This has been fixed.
