SQL Server 2017 – CLR was loaded in an unsupported manner (All SSIS jobs failed)
Hi, We are facing a critical issue in our SQL Server 2017 instance. When trying to use a built-in CLR function or running SSIS-related jobs, we are getting the below error: The Common Language Runtime (CLR) was loaded in an unsupported manner. This can occur if an extended stored procedure or OLE Automation object running in SQL Server calls into managed code before the CLR integration runtime host loads the CLR. You need to restart SQL Server to use CLR integration features. Steps tried so far: Restarted SQL Server service Restarted the entire Windows Server Verified .NET Framework version (4.7.03062 installed) Confirmed CLR integration is enabled (sp_configure 'clr enabled', 1) All SSIS jobs are failing due to this issue. Any suggestions, please?

Insert & Update both implemented wrong semantically
Insert means to introduce something, adding/entering something new Update means to change something, change and existing value. Semantically and logically speaking, Insert should only be used to enter data into an empty or partially empty record/table. Update should only be used to change existing values within a record/table. Using a 5 column table as an example where column 1 is an email address Example1 INSERT INTO table (Column1,Column2,Column3) VALUES (value1,value2,value3) Or Example2 INSERT INTO table VALUES (value1,value2,value3,value4,value5) With example 1, 2 columns are left empty Semantically, insert should be used to populate columns for the first time INSERT INTO table (column4, column5) VALUES (value4,value5) where column1 = "EmailAddress" Then for example, UPDATE table SET COLUMN2 = "newValue" WHERE COLUMN1 = "EmailAddress" Updating (setting) an empty column should cause an error, cannot update an empty column SQL, a great idea, pity its implementation is tainted by bad design. SQL works, but its design/implementation of Insert & Update is semantically wrong. IMO As the saying goes, if it isn't broken, don't fix it. Who cares about semantics or logic.SQL Server does not reduce the size of MDF and LDF
I am a SQL Server 2017 user, I deleted a table that had too many records, but after the delete process, the size of the MDF and LDF files did not decrease, but increased. I have shrunk the file but the file size remains the same. What should I do to change the file size?

How can I optimize this query for better performance
Hi , I have this query and it is taking a long time. If there are more than 10k rows, it takes more than 5 minutes. Is there another way to speed up the process? SELECT ROW_NUMBER() OVER (ORDER BY CreationDate DESC) AS RowId, Id [Id], transactionsId [TransactionsId], amount [Amount], AccountId [AccountId], dbo.Account_FirstBalance(CreationDate, AccountId, 161, CompanyId) [FirstBalance] FROM p_Ledger WHERE CreationDate >= '2024-11-01' AND CreationDate <= '2025-02-11' AND CompanyId = 117 AND branchId = 161 ALTER FUNCTION [dbo].[Account_FirstBalance]( @TransactionsDate DATETIME, @AccountId BIGINT, @BranchId INT, @CompanyId BIGINT ) RETURNS FLOAT AS BEGIN DECLARE @credit FLOAT; SELECT @credit = SUM(CASE WHEN T.transactionStatusId = 1 THEN T.amount ELSE -T.amount END) FROM dbo.Transactions T WHERE T.Approval = 1 AND T.CompanyId = @CompanyId AND T.AccountsId = @AccountId AND T.IsDeleted = 0 AND T.transactionsDate < @TransactionsDate AND (@BranchId = 0 OR T.branchId = @BranchId); RETURN ROUND(COALESCE(@credit, 0), 2); END;one column refer to 2 columns

Need help in restoring table using large .sql data file(4GB)
We have run into a situation where we need to restore the data into a SQL table. We have taken backup of data only using MS SQL Server and the .sql file size is 4 GB. Since we are unable to open this file in SQL server, we are using sqlcmd to execute this file but after restoring 140K records it is throwing some syntax error (Unclosed quotation mark after the character strig 'abc_121223354565 and incorrect syntax near 'abc_121223354565 ). The .sql file has total 240K records in it. Questions: 1. When the backup was provided by SQL server only, why it is throwing syntax error? 2. How to open this large file to fix the syntax error? if option 2 is not possible, how do we split the large file into smaller chunks so we can identify the exact place where the issue is? Thanks, Srikanth
