552I would have expected that to show up in the SQL log or the server's arerror.log at least The info for 552 is: An SQL database error occurred during an operation against the database. An associated error message contains the full text of the error message from the database. The error is often a message about running out of space in the database log or data area. You can correct this by increasing the size of the data area or by flushing or increasing the size of the log area. One thing I just thought of ... Is the field you are increasing used in an index?

Re: [URGENT]Use Alter Table Alter Column on Remedy ARS
If you have the Alter Table SQL command (from the SQL Logs) you may have to try running it manually (and any SQL commands after) to see exactly what the SQL Server error is If you still can't find an error then maybe the ARS Server is trying to do a case sensitive check on the table name. That you can fix by renaming the table (rename it twice as I have seen some cases where just changing the case of the name doesn't recognize that the name is changing): EXEC sp_rename 't', 'tOLD'; EXEC sp_rename 'tOLD', 'T'; Fred -Original Message- From: Action Request System discussion list(ARSList) [mailto:arslist@ARSLIST.ORG] On Behalf Of Hugo Ruesga Sent: Thursday, May 09, 2013 9:47 AM To: arslist@ARSLIST.ORG Subject: Re: [URGENT]Use Alter Table Alter Column on Remedy ARS ** That's the funny part, no error on both logs.

Re: [URGENT]Use Alter Table Alter Column on Remedy ARS
You should never modify the tables directly. What error are you receiving? (and if you turn on SQL Logs on the server you will see the actual SQL that is being executed) As for the t vs T ... SQL Server is not case sensitive so that should not matter.
