Reminders

  • Microsoft Windows Server 2008 is no longer supported as of WorkflowGen version 7.11.0. We recommend migrating to Windows Server 2012 or later.

  • Microsoft SQL Server 2008 is no longer supported as of WorkflowGen version 7.10.0. While SQL Server 2008 is still compatible with WorkflowGen, support for any performance issues or bugs resulting from using SQL Server 2008 will no longer be provided.

    For clients currently hosting WorkflowGen on a database server older than MS SQL Server 2012, we highly recommend upgrading to MS SQL Server 2017 or 2019 for the best performance.

We have just upgraded to 7.15.2 but we now get the following error when trying to export a process:
Cannot resolve the collation conflict between “Latin1_General_CI_AS” and “SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS” in the UNION operation.

Hello David,

You need to set your database collation as SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS, you can follow the following procedure:

5

We just followed this procedure to change the collation but we still get the same error when trying to export a process.

6

You need to identify columns which provide the error and change the collation for these columns.

You can execute the following request to identify columns:

DECLARE @DatabaseCollation VARCHAR(100) = 'SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS'

SELECT 
    t.Name 'Table Name',
    c.name 'Col Name',
    c.collation_name
FROM 
    sys.columns c 
INNER JOIN 
    sys.tables t ON c.object_id = t.object_id
INNER JOIN 
    sys.types ty ON c.system_type_id = ty.system_type_id    
WHERE 
    t.is_ms_shipped = 0
    AND 
    c.collation_name <> @DatabaseCollation
