Quote:Microsoft confirmed that client and server versions of its Windows operating system are affected by a database connection issue. The issue affects Windows devices that have the latest updates, released on the November 2022 patch day, installed, according to Microsoft's description

The issue affects applications that use ODBC connections using the ODBC SQL Server Driver sqlsrv32.dll to access databases. ODBC stands for Open Database Connectivity.

Users may receive error messages such as "The EMS System encountered a problem" with "Message: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver] Protocol error in TDS Stream" or "Message: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Unknown token received from SQL Server" according to Microsoft's problem report.

There is no workaround for the issue at the time of writing, but users may run a command to find out if any open applications on the device use the DLL file.
  1. Use the keyboard shortcut Windows-R to open the run box.
  2. Type cmd.exe and hit the Enter-key.
  3. Run the command tasklist /m sqlsrv32.dll.
All tasks that use the DLL file are returned by the command. Note that applications need to run to be included in the scan.

Microsoft confirms that the issue affects Windows client and server versions:
  • Affected Windows client platforms:
    • Windows 7 Service Pack 1
    • Windows 8.1
    • Windows 10 Enterprise 2015 LTSB.
