Checking @@ROWCOUNT failing












2















I have a code similar to the one below in one of my SQL procedures,



declare @rowcount int

update table1
set value = @value
where id = @id

select @rowcount = @@ROWCOUNT

if ( @rowcount = 0 )
begin
insert into table1(id, value1,value2...)
select (@id, @value1, @value2...)
end


But it fails rarely, like once in a day etc. That means the data exists in the table and @@rowcount is 0 and it tried to insert data and primary key violation happening. Here all values which are inserting ie. id,value1,value2 etc are integers. Any thoughts?

    Have you tried wrapping this code inside a transaction? I'm wondering if some other process is sliding in between the update and the insert.

  • There is no transaction. My proc is like below, create procedure my_procname AS BEGIN set nocount on -- sp code here as in the question end

I'm not sure why you're using a variable, but you need to protect multiple statements with a transaction. What's happening is two users are calling the procedure at the same time, both are getting rowcount = 0, and then they're both trying to insert as a result.



set transaction isolation level serializable;
begin transaction;

update dbo.table1
set value = @value
where id = @id;

if (@@ROWCOUNT = 0)
begin
insert dbo.table1(id, value1,value2...)
values(@id, @value1, @value2...);
end

commit transaction;
