    Hi @Raghavendra Katageri ,

    Thanks for your guidance @Erland Sommarskog

    @Raghavendra Katageri The questions you raised are valid, since exit code 14 is not a standard SQL Server error and the failing query against sys.traces needs verification. To move this forward, could you please share the output of SELECT @@VERSION and the result of the sys.traces query? That will help narrow down why exit code 14 is being returned.

    That information will help determine whether this is version-related, permissions-related, or tool-specific behavior. Looking forward to your update.

    Thanks,
    Akhil.
