Rejected events in SiteProtector due to Load Sensor Data job issues

Troubleshooting


Problem

Users may find that they are seeing an increase in rejected events in the SiteProtector Console.

Symptom

  • New events are not being displayed in SiteProtector and the rejected event count is increasing.
  • The job history of the Load Sensor Data job under SQL Agent in the SQL server indicates the following error:

    EXECUTE msdb.dbo.sp_sqlagent_log_jobhistory @job_id = 0xB293935E355E51449C5EC6D23E865154, @step_id = 1, @sql_message_id = 3621, @sql_severity = 16, @run_status = 2, @run_date = 20090319, @run_time = 121829, @run_duration = 4, @operator_id_emailed = 0, @operator_id_netsent = 0, @operator_id_paged = 0, @retries_attempted = 0, @session_id = 97, @message = N'Executed as user: IssApp. Cannot insert the value NULL into column ''VulnStatus'', table ''RealSecureDB.dbo.SecurityChecks''; column does not allow nulls. INSERT fails. [SQLSTATE 23000] (Error 515) The statement has been terminated. [SQLSTATE 01000] (Error 3621)'

Resolving The Problem

If you have the error message above, check the SecurityChecks table definition and verify that VulnStatus is defined correctly. It should be a bit value, with (0) as default, and no Nulls are allowed.
 
  1. In SQL Server Management Studio, expand Databases > RealSecureDB > Tables.
     
  2. Right-click the SecurityChecks table and select Design.
     
  3. Highlight the VulnStats column.
     
  4. In the Column Properties window, ensure the Default Value or Binding is set to 0.
