                                            | Hello,Recently we installed a new version sql 2005 sp2 on a Windows 2003 server.At installaion time we choose the Windows Locale for the collation (this was the default- the server was installed with Dutch The Netherlands).The first application database we have created is with SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS (the supplier of the application supplied the database creation scripts with this collation, we did not change).When i clik on - security - logins, select a user and click on Securables, i receive error 468:Cannot resolve collation conflict between "SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS" and "Latin1_General_CI_AS"in the UNION operation.The error only occurs when we click successively on General  - Server Roles - User Mapping - SecurablesWhat is wrong?Additional information - select serverproperty('Collation')Latin1_General_CI_ASselect name, collation_name, compatibility_level from sys.databasesname			collation_name	          compatibility_levelmaster			Latin1_General_CI_AS		90tempdb			Latin1_General_CI_AS		90model			Latin1_General_CI_AS		90msdb			Latin1_General_CI_AS		90ReportServer		Latin1_General_CI_AS_KS_WS	90ReportServerTempDB	Latin1_General_CI_AS_KS_WS	90 	ADB_ReportServer	Latin1_General_CI_AS_KS_WS      90ADB_ReportServerTempDB	Latin1_General_CI_AS_KS_WS      90ADB_Orga		SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS    90I have read many thing on the web concerning collation error 468, and that it has to do with the tempdb, but i still do not know......- Do i have a problem, because the error only occurs in SSMS (as far as we know now)?- Do all my present and future database should have the collation Latin1_General_CI_AS?- What if some application required different collation? All information is welcome.Best regards,hvdtol |
