Faulting application OSQL.EXE...

For last couple of days I had a issue in SQL Server which is installed in Windows Server 2008 computer.

We are having a trigger to track the new inserts to a table and when it fires it executes few Stored Procedures as background processes using OLE Automation.

But sometimes even though that trigger was fired, those stored procedures did not executed.

When I checked the Windows Log in the Server Manager, I was able to find the below message

Faulting application OSQL.EXE, version 2009.100.1600.1, time stamp 0x4bb67996, faulting module kernel32.dll, version 6.0.6001.18000, time stamp 0x4791adec, exception code 0xc0000142, fault offset 0x00000000000b1188, process id 0x2274, application start time 0x01cc48354094868e.

I tried to find a solution by browsing the internet but couldn't find any solution.

After trying several workarounds I was able to find a solution to that issue.

The Solution is:

• Open the Server Manager.
• Expand Configuration section, then click on Services.
• Then restart the Windows Management Instrumentation service.
• After that restart the relevant SQL Server service.

I was able to solve the issue by restarting those two services and I hope this will helps to solve some other issues as well...
