SQL Server 2005 SP1 Cumulative Hotfix

Service Pack 1 has just been released and here is a cumulative hotfix for things that didn't make it to the Service Pack.

One of the most interesting ones is probably this, it sounds so familiar.


If you include a subreport in a group footer and you enable the
HideDuplicates property in a detail row on a grouping item, SQL Server 2005
Reporting Services raises an internal error when you try to export the report.
The error also occurs when you click Print Preview on the Preview tab in Report
Designer.

Be sure to read the important notes!

  • SQL Server 2005 hotfixes are now multilanguage. There is only one cumulative hotfix package for all languages.
  • You must install each component package for your operating system.
  • You must enable the SQL Server Management Object (SMO) and SQL Server Distributed Management Object (SQL-DMO) extended stored procedures before you install the hotfix package. For more information about the SMO/DMO XPs option, see SQL Server 2005 Books Online.Note SQL Server 2005 Books Online notes that the default setting of these stored procedures is 0 (OFF). However, this value is incorrect. By default, the setting is 1 (ON).
  • You must install all component packages in the order in which they are listed in this article. If you do not install the component packages in the correct order, you may receive an error message.For more information, click the following article number to view the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base:
    919224 FIX: You may receive an error message when you install the cumulative hotfix package (build 2153) for SQL Server 2005
