sp_OAGetErrorInfo (Transact-SQL)

Applies to: SQL Server

Obtains OLE Automation error information.

Transact-SQL syntax conventions

Syntax

sp_OAGetErrorInfo [ objecttoken ]
    [ , source OUTPUT ]
    [ , description OUTPUT ]
    [ , helpfile OUTPUT ]
    [ , helpid OUTPUT ]
[ ; ]

Arguments

objecttoken

Either the object token of an OLE object that was previously created by using sp_OACreate, or NULL. If objecttoken is specified, error information for that object is returned. If NULL is specified, the error information for the entire batch is returned.

source OUTPUT

The source of the error information. If specified, it must be a local char, nchar, varchar, or nvarchar variable. The return value is truncated to fit the local variable if necessary.

description OUTPUT

The description of the error. If specified, it must be a local char, nchar, varchar, or nvarchar variable. The return value is truncated to fit the local variable if necessary.

helpfile OUTPUT

The help file for the OLE object. If specified, it must be a local char, nchar, varchar, or nvarchar variable. The return value is truncated to fit the local variable if necessary.

helpid OUTPUT

The help file context ID. If specified, it must be a local int variable.

Note

The parameters for this stored procedure are specified by position, not name.

Return code values

0 (success) or a nonzero number (failure) that is the integer value of the HRESULT returned by the OLE Automation object.

For more information about HRESULT return codes, see OLE automation return codes and error information.

Result set

If no output parameters are specified, the error information is returned to the client as a result set.

Column name Data type Description
Error binary(4) Binary representation of the error number.
Source nvarchar(nn) Source of the error.
Description nvarchar(nn) Description of the error.
Helpfile nvarchar(nn) Help file for the source.
HelpID int Help context ID in the Help source file.

Remarks

Each call to an OLE Automation stored procedure (except sp_OAGetErrorInfo) resets the error information; therefore, sp_OAGetErrorInfo obtains error information only for the most recent OLE Automation stored procedure call. Because sp_OAGetErrorInfo doesn't reset the error information, it can be called multiple times to get the same error information.

The following table lists OLE Automation errors and their common causes.

Error and HRESULT Common cause
Bad variable type (0x80020008) Data type of a Transact-SQL value passed as a method parameter didn't match the Microsoft Visual Basic data type of the method parameter, or a NULL value was passed as a method parameter.
Unknown name (0x8002006) Specified property or method name wasn't found for the specified object.
Invalid class string (0x800401f3) Specified ProgID or CLSID isn't registered as an OLE object on an instance of SQL Server. Custom OLE automation servers must be registered before they can be instantiated using sp_OACreate. You can register servers using the Regsvr32.exe utility for in-process (.dll) servers, or the /REGSERVER command-line switch for local (.exe) servers.
Server execution failed (0x80080005) Specified OLE object is registered as a local OLE server (.exe file) but the .exe file couldn't be found or started.
The specified module couldn't be found (0x8007007e) Specified OLE object is registered as an in-process OLE server (.dll file), but the .dll file couldn't be found or loaded.
Type mismatch (0x80020005) Data type of a Transact-SQL local variable that is used to store a returned property value or a method return value didn't match the Visual Basic data type of the property or method return value. Or, the return value of a property or a method was requested, but it doesn't return a value.
Data type or value of the 'context' parameter of sp_OACreate is invalid. (0x8004275B) The value of the context parameter should be one of: 1, 4, or 5.

For more information about processing HRESULT return codes, see OLE automation return codes and error information.

Permissions

Requires membership in the sysadmin fixed server role or execute permission directly on this stored procedure. The Ole Automation Procedures server configuration option must be enabled to use any system procedure related to OLE Automation.

Examples

The following example displays OLE Automation error information.

DECLARE @output VARCHAR(255);
DECLARE @hr INT;
DECLARE @source VARCHAR(255);
DECLARE @description VARCHAR(255);

PRINT 'OLE Automation Error Information';

EXEC @hr = sp_OAGetErrorInfo @object,
    @source OUTPUT,
    @description OUTPUT;

IF @hr = 0
BEGIN
    SELECT @output = '  Source: ' + @source;
    PRINT @output;
    SELECT @output = '  Description: ' + @description;
    PRINT @output;
END
ELSE
BEGIN
    PRINT '  sp_OAGetErrorInfo failed.'

    RETURN
END;
