Re: FCB::RemoveAlternateStreams: Operating system error (null)

Well, I don't have anything to guess anymore. However you said that this is a SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. So, in this edition of SQL Server the "AutoClose" property is true by default. And because of this property, when the last connected user disconnects, your database is closed and all resources allocated for it is freed.

I think you get this error when another user tries to connect to this database so it's opened again and you get this error somehow.

If this database is being used frequently and if you have enough resources to allocated for this instance of SQL Server then how about setting this AutoClose property to False? You can find this property in that database's properties\Options.

This just a suggestion, not a solution.

Thanks again for your help.

It is a member server and hosts two applications. One is a proprietary
applicaiton and the other is Trend Micro Interscan. It is also running Trend
Micro Officescan as the antivirus software. Interscan is using a database on
a different instance and is not receiving mail as of yet, this still has to
be put into production. I unloaded officescan and restarted the instance and
the problem still occurs.

I have been looking closely at this error and saw that it is not actually
every hour, but when users start the software up a entry is placed in the
event log "starting up database..." and thereafter this error is logged.

I have forwarded this to the support people of the proprietary software but
anticipate them saying that it is a database problem and not related to their
software.

There are no scheduled jobs running on the server.

Thanks again.

You said that you get this error "every hour" so this makes me think that
there must be some Scheduled Job in SQL Server or Windows or another
software that is executed and caused this error.

Will you tell me what softwares are being run on this server where this SQL
Server 2005 Express Edition is installed? For example, is this a Domain
Controller at the same time? Or Exchange Server is installed? Or Antivirus
softwares?

Review your scheduled jobs that run every hour and let us know about them.
So we may reach to some evidence about this error.
