We have recently set up two SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition servers
with database mirroring. The mirrors function and fail over without a
problem, but the Database Mirroring Monitor Job fails every time with
the following error message:
Incorrect syntax near '.'. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 102) Incorrect
syntax near the keyword 'with'. If this statement is a common table
expression or an xmlnamespaces clause, the previous statement must be
terminated with a semicolon. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 319). The step
failed.
Both SQL Servers are running SP2 with the latest patches.
Can anyone help with the resolutionto this this issue?
Thank you!

Eh, that looks bad. I haven't worked much with mirroring, or more precisely
not at all. But a syntax errors is not what I would expect. Could you
list the exact name of the servers and databases involved? My suspicion
is that there is a problem with special characters.

LOL...I didn't think it looked good either :)
The database server has a dash in it (i.e. CompanyName-SQL1 and SQL2
respecitvely). All databases are just alpha characters except for one
that begins with a number sequence (i.e. 1000DatabaseName).
Thank you in advance!

What service-pack level are you at? (For all three machines.)
If you are on SP2, you should definitely submit a bug on
http://connect.microsoft.com/SqlServer/. And if it's not an acceptable
workaround to rename the servers, I think you should open a case with
Microsoft, and demand that you get a hotfix.
If you are not on SP2, I recommend you to download it to see if it addresses
the problem. Note there is a rollup to SP2 which addresses two serious
bugs with maintenance plans. Make sure you get the rollup, if you use
maintenance plans.

Sorry, I see now in your first post that you are on SP2.

Thank you for taking the time to look into the issue! I will submit
the case to Microsoft and hopefully get a resolution from them.
