Hi All,

Recently one of the Merge agents in my organization crashed without any
particular reason generating a dump file. No specific SQL related error was
written in job history/replication history or SQL server logs.

Below is the dump details. Can some expert please try to inteprit the error
to me ? I'm most interested in avoiding the same issue occuring again. Thanks.

Environment :
01.Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.3080.00 (Intel X86) Sep 6 2009
01:43:32 Copyright (c) 1988-2005 Microsoft Corporation Standard Edition on
Windows NT 5.2 (Build 3790: Service Pack 2)

02.Windows Server 2003 Version 3790 (Service Pack 2) MP (4 procs) Free x86
compatible

This dump file has an exception of interest stored in it.
The stored exception information can be accessed via .ecxr.
