SQL Error on production - urgent

Question

Hi Friends
My load failed today due to the following error. I dont understand what could be the problem. I have checked in RSA3 and still short dumped with the same error. It's a load from BW it's self using generic extraction with direct read off table in BW.
An exception occurred. This exception is dealt with in more detail below
. The exception, which is assigned to the class 'CX_SY_OPEN_SQL_DB', was
neither                                                                
caught nor passed along using a RAISING clause, in the procedure        
"RSA3_GEN_GET_DATA" "(FUNCTION)"                                       
Since the caller of the procedure could not have expected this exception
to occur, the running program was terminated.                          
The reason for the exception is:                                        
The data read during a SELECT access could not be inserted into the     
target field.                                                           
Either conversion is not supported for the target field's type or the   
target field is too short to accept the value or the data are not in a  
form that the target field can accept                                   
Please explain me what to do?
Regards,
Chama.

Problem solved.  While it is noted that on a DC you cannot run the database as a local service, it is not mentioned that it will not even install if loaded as ANY service.  If given a full admin user and password to use as it's operating condition,
the install goes fine.  Then change to what is desired.  I am not impressed with the error reporting in this install, as even the event logs gave no indication as to the reason for this.  Most of the install of the database service went OK (In
the event logs and the install logs.) and when doing the final config, the problem pops up, aborting everything else.  You MUST then wipe ALL traces of the first install or different weird failures appear no matter what credentials are used.
Hi C Policki,
Sorry for my delay.
Glad to hear that you have solved this issue and thanks for sharing in the forum. Your time and efforts are highly appreciated.
I noticed that you install the SQL Server 2012 in a Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials. Would you please let me confirm whether that Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials was a Windows Server 2012
R2 Standard/Datacenter with Windows Server Essentials Experience role, then you deploy it in an Existing Active Directory Environment?
Deploying
Windows Server 2012 R2 Standard/Datacenter with Windows Server Essentials Experience role in an Existing Active Directory Environment
If it is just a Windows Server 2012 R2 Essentials, it should be a DC.That
will be not recommended to install SQL Server on a domain controller. There are specific security restrictions when running SQL Server in this configuration and given the resource demands of a domain controller, SQL Server performance may be degraded.
