We are getting error 'Root Transaction wanted to Commit, but transaction aborted' message, when trying to insert huge data transaction on one of the tables.

We are using Windows operation system Windows server 2003, Service pack 2. If we uninstall Service pack 2 then the problem gets solved automatically. Please let us know the reason for this problem.

And what are you using for SQL Server? What programming language is this?

This doesn't look like a SQL Server message.

Here is the complete description of the problem.

We have a module in our project, which reads data from XML file and merges the data into the database. This merging at one end happens to a SQL Server 2005/SQL Server 2000 datbase. At the other end it happens to a Oracle database. We have a portal application developed in ASP.NET from where, we merge the data.

When the data to be merged is very huge, we get this message. 'The root transaction wanted to commit, but transaction aborted'. Right now we are getting this message, when we try to merge data on to a oracle database.

But this problem is very intermittent. It happens only when there is huge amount of data to be inserted to one table.

As i have mentioned in my post, we use Windows server 2003 operation system with service pack 2. This error does not come when we do the same operation with service pack 1.

So is it OS dependent?

I think your issue is too complex to be addressed in a forum like this. I'd suggest opening a case with Microsoft.
