SQL Collation conflict after database restore

Question

I restored a site and database onto another machine, but cannot run the application because I am getting this error:

InnerException message: Cannot resolve the collation conflict between "SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS" and "Latin1_General_CI_AS" in the equal to operation.

Both machines are running MS SQL Server 2012 Standard edition and even the same minor version. I saw the other posts on this error, but could not find any tables or columns as Latin1_General_CI_AS. The database properties shows that the collation is SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS. Any ideas on ow to fix this?

Answer 1

I changed the database servers collation and that worked. Apparently, temp tables were being populated by a stored procedure and choking since the database and the server were different collation.
