remote procedure call (RPC) protocol stream is incorrect

Question

I use entityframework 5.0. I have so many test. If I run a test alone it passes, if I run this with the others eachother in the same time, it does not pass. There is no contact between the tests. Everytime one same query was sent. It would not be modified.

**query:**

insert [dbo].[Patient]
       ([AddressId],
        [FirstName],
        [LastName],
        [MiddleName],
        [MuthersName],
        [Sex],
        [BirthDate],
        [TAJNumber],
        [Height],
        [Weight],
        [PhoneMobil],
        [PhoneHome],
        [Email],
        [OtherDisease])
values (13 /* @0 */,
        'Peter' /* @1 */,
        'Peter' /* @2 */,
        'Peter' /* @3 */,
        'Maria' /* @4 */,
        1 /* @5 */,
        '1991-07-04T00:00:00' /* @6 */,
        '5464845' /* @7 */,
        170 /* @8 */,
        66 /* @9 */,
        '00456249864' /* @10 */,
        '00456249864' /* @11 */,
        '[email protected]' /* @12 */,
        null)



select [Id]
from   [dbo].[Patient]
where  @@ROWCOUNT > 0
       and [Id] = scope_identity()

Answer 1

I was issuing a SQLCommand with a select command and I had the error :

The incoming tabular data stream (TDS) remote procedure call (RPC) protocol stream is incorrect. The RPC name is invalid.

Because I was calling a SQLCommand with a command type of CommandType.StoredProcedure.

Changing this to CommandType.Text fixed my problem.

System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand result = new SqlCommand(GetSQLSelectCommande());
        if (FromDate == default(DateTime) || isEqualDay(FromDate, DateTime.Now))
        {
            FromDate.AddMonths(-1);
        }
        ToDate = new DateTime(ToDate.Year, ToDate.Month, ToDate.Day, 23, 59, 59);
        result.Parameters.Clear();
        result.CommandType = CommandType.Text;
        result.Parameters.Add("@IdClient", SqlDbType.Int).Value = this.IdClient;
        result.Parameters.Add("@dateDebut", SqlDbType.DateTime).Value = this.FromDate;
        result.Parameters.Add("@dateFin", SqlDbType.DateTime).Value = this.ToDate;
        result.Parameters.Add("@langue", SqlDbType.Int).Value = (Offix.Culture.GetCulture() == Offix.EnumLangue.ofxFrancais ? 5 : 3);

I faced this problem when I tried to insert a new row with a column of float data type. The same exception as yours was thrown when I tried to insert Infinity or NaN values, which are not supported by SQL Server.

if you're using Entity Framework, It's recommended to use the HibernatingRhinos assembly. You can trace generated queries and detect the parameter that caused your problem.

SQL Profiler will not help you if your using TPT (Table-Per-Type).
