- TSQL md5 hash different to C# .NET md5 4 answers
I have a table in SQL Server 2008 R2 that contain two field (WordHash, Word). This Hash
field generated in C# and I need regenerate hash code for Word
field in sql server.
But my problem is that generated MD5 hash in sql server and C# are different. I found below code to resolve this problem but still I have same problem.
SQL code:
CONVERT(NVARCHAR(32),HASHBYTES('MD5', 'some word'), 2)
After putting this code block to my query, I saw some wired result! This is my result:
My Query:
SELECT
[WordHash],
convert(nvarchar(32),HASHBYTES('MD5', 'Analytics'),2) AS TestHash,
convert(nvarchar(32),HASHBYTES('MD5', [Word]),2) AS SqlHash
FROM myTable
Result:
WordHash: A768CAA988605A2846599CF7E2D0C26A
TestHash: A768CAA988605A2846599CF7E2D0C26A
SqlHash F4AFA5FEF805F7F5163EC6402BAF61FF
Note that the 'Analytics'
is one of records data in database.
Why TestHash
& SqlHash
are different while they generated from same code!?
