LINQPad System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException when connection

roarg · January 2018

When connecting to a SQL database LINQPad is trowing a System.ArgumentOutOfRangeException. The connection to the DB server is ok, other DBs on the server is not resulting in this error.

Error:

startIndex connot be larger then length of string. Parameter name: startIndex.

SQL Server 2008

Also: There isn`t any issues connecting with SSMS

I've found the error report and identified a possible cause which I can fix for the next update.

It points to a very obscure scenario, though. Does your database schema contain non-BMP Unicode characters by any chance?

I tried out the beta 5.28.03 without any luck. I am not sure of the non-BMP Unicode question. I am not that familiar with the schema yet.

Maybe I got the wrong bug report. If you tell me your machine name, I can match it with the correct one.
