Data Collection Job - ‘collection_set_3_upload’ failing…. its a bug!

 

The past couple of hours have seen me frustrated as one of the jobs related to the great Data Collection functionality packed into SQL Server 2008 keeps failing without much error information. Unfortunately the issue appears unanswered on many of the forums in which I searched.

 

The failing job is named ‘collection_set_3_upload’ and it fails on each of the servers on which it has been applied.

 

Following some investigation it seems Microsoft have identified and fixed the bug so can install Cumulative Update 5 for SQL Server 2008 SP1.

 

Information on the problem can be found here:

While the actual update can be located here:

Right, I’m off to update some forums!
