Need explanation for Cannot insert duplicate key row in object error
Probably you have already a row with intStatus 18 and uid 'a1a1...'
Try to run and see if you have already the row that you try to create with your UPDATE:
SELECT uid,
intStatus
FROM dbo.MYTABLE
WHERE intStatus = 18
AND uid = 'a1a1a1a1-a1a1-a1a1-a1a1-a1a1a1a1a1a1'

I’m doing:
SELECT uid, intStatus from dbo.MYTABLE WHERE intStatus = 10 and uid = 'a1a1a1a1-a1a1-a1a1-a1a1-a1a1a1a1a1a1'
And I get:
uid | intStatus -------------------------------------- +--------------- 'a1a1a1a1-a1a1-a1a1-a1a1-a1a1a1a1a1a1 | 10
Then I need to do an update, I need the intStatus to be 18 for that uid. So I do:
UPDATE dbo.MYTABLE SET intStatus = 18 WHERE intStatus = 10 and uid = 'a1a1a1a1-a1a1-a1a1-a1a1-a1a1a1a1a1a1'
And here’s where I’m getting the error:
Cannot insert duplicate key row in object 'dbo.MYTABLE' with unique index 'ixMYTABLE'.
Can anyone, please, tell me why I’m getting this error? How can I solve it?
uid is primary key for MYTABLE
intStatus is a not null int
Thanks a ton!
