I'm trying to setup a merge replication between two SQL Servers as follows:
- The publisher is SQL Server 2014 (SP2) Developer edition
- The subscriber is SQL Server 2012 (SP3) Developer edition
Generating the snapshot completed successfully, however when applying the snapshot on the subscriber I am getting the following error:
Command attempted:
{call sp_MSsetconflicttable (N'DMCOLLPKGEXCEPTION', N'MSmerge_conflict_MaxLoadBalance_Repl_DMCOLLPKGEXCEPTION', N'MAXIMO-1-RND\SQL2014', N'MaxTest', N'MaxLoadBalance_Repl')}
Error messages:
Incorrect syntax near 'exception'. (Source: MSSQLServer, Error number: 102)
Get help: http://help/102
The merge process was unable to deliver the snapshot to the Subscriber. If using Web synchronization, the merge process may have been unable to create or write to the message file. When troubleshooting, restart the synchronization with verbose history logging and specify an output file to which to write. (Source: MSSQL_REPL, Error number: MSSQL_REPL-2147201001)
Get help: http://help/MSSQL_REPL-2147201001I've opened the profiler to find where this syntax error is happening, and the following is what I found:

as you can see the statement starts with the name of the column with no select nor update and ends with from and where clause! ... the following is a copy of the whole script:

I am no sure if I'm looking to the right places, but anyway, is this a bug? or it is me who did something wrong? ... how can this be fixed anyway?
