You must have encountered the table error messages while accessing the MS SQL Server database tables. These errors occur because of some integrity issues in the database tables. Sometimes, the integrity issues can take place because of having a corrupt database. And a database can get corrupted because of various internal and external issues such as virus attacks, human errors like improper system shutdown especially when the database is open, sudden power fluctuations, data integrity issues due to mishandling the database such as changing the structure of the database, multiple users trying to change the database table simultaneously, etc. Because of the table errors you can face various problems such as partially or completely inaccessible database, retrieving corrupt records, regularly displaying error and warning messages, and so on. These problems are bound to pose serious threats especially when you are working on a real-time environment. To counter such situations, you can restore the database by overwriting it with its updated backup. However, if the backup is not the updated one then you will have to use the advanced SQL Database Recovery application to repair the corrupt database.
Consider a practical situation wherein you have created a table called "Accounts" in a database. However, when you open the table the following error message is displayed:
"Table error: Object ID O_ID, index ID I_ID, page P_ID. Test (TEST) failed. Slot S_ID, offset 0xADDRESS overlaps with the prior row."
The records in the "Accounts" table become inaccessible once the aforementioned message is displayed.
Cause:
The aforementioned error message occurs when the offset of the S_ID slot is not equal to or greater than the end of the previous slot. And the reason for this is that there is a 'test' table in which the value of the sorted[i].offset is not equal to or greater than the expected value.
Resolution:
To address the mentioned error and in turn, successfully access the "Accounts" table, you can perform the following methods:
Check the SQL Server Error Log to find out if there is any hardware issues that is causing this problem. If it is so, replace the damaged hardware. If it is not a hardware issue, then you need to run the DBCC CHECKDB command without using any repair clause. This way, you can find out the exact repair clause that needs to be applied for the database repair. Then, you can run the DBCC CHECKDB command with that repair clause. However, performing the previous method can result in data loss. So, to avoid any data loss you should take the help of a sophisticated SQL Repair tool. These tools use safe and robust algorithms to repair almost all kinds of corrupt database components.
The Stellar SQL Database Recovery tool recovers and repairs the SQL tables and other components in three steps. The SQL Database Repair tool can be used to recover database components created in MS SQL Server 2008, MS SQL Server 2005, and MS SQL Server 2000. The recovery tool is compatible with various Windows operating systems such as Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP, Windows NT, etc.
