Another user has modified the contents of this table or view; the database row you are modifying no longer exists in the database;

[Ioannis Demetriades]

Hi,

I am testing a trigger that and I am getting this error message saying

"Another user has modified the contents of this table or view; the database
row you are modifying no longer exists in the database"

What I am trying to do through the trigger is not to allow the creation of a
new session for which there exists another session with the same cashierid
and closingtime is NULL.

Thanks
Ioannis

Hi,

My understanding of your requirement is as follows:-
if there is the same cashierID in the table without a ClosingTime, then the
new INSERT should be rolled back.

Please check teh following code. I have tested it on a sample table and it
works fine. Do get back if you need any clarifications on the same.

CREATE TRIGGER SessionCheck ON dbo.Sessions
FOR INSERT
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @sessionID int
DECLARE @count int
SELECT @sessionID = cashierID FROM INSERTED
SELECT @count = count(*) FROM Sessions
WHERE cashierID = @sessionID and
ClosingTime IS NULL
IF @count > 1
BEGIN
PRINT 'SESSION ALREADY EXISTS'
ROLLBACK TRANSACTION
END
END

Hi Mandar,

Your trigger works fine. However I still have to take care of any updates on
"Sessions.CashiersId". Do you know what caused this error message in my
original trigger?

Thanks

Hi,

Regarding the update check, you will need a seperate trigger FOR UPDATE
where you can use the similar logic based on the updated column.

I am adding the code here. It works in my scenario. Please revert if you
have any queries.

CREATE TRIGGER SessionCheckUpd ON dbo.Sessions
FOR UPDATE
AS
BEGIN
DECLARE @sessionID int
DECLARE @count int
If UPDATE(SessionID)
BEGIN
SELECT @sessionID = CashiersId FROM INSERTED
SELECT @count = count(*) FROM Sessions
WHERE CashiersId= @sessionID and ClosingTime iS NULL
IF @count > 1
BEGIN
PRINT 'SESSION ALREADY EXISTS'
ROLLBACK TRANSACTION
END
END
END

Hi Mandar,

Thanks for your advice. I took your code and made some minor modifications
and I noticed that when i run INSERT and UPDATE sql statements the triggers
behave as expected. It's only when I try to modify the data through the
Enterprise manager that I get this message. My question is whether i am
doing something fundamentally wrong with the triggers or is it something
that has to do with the cursor that is used to fetch the data in the
enterprise manager? Where can i get some info about this error message?

Thanks
