In some cases, the Microsoft SQL Server agent plugin may send an empty job name, usually due to difficulties determining the codepage or because of wrong data in the job system table. Previously, this led to a crash; now an empty job name is replaced with the job ID.

You may need to rediscover services to see the new job names, but no other user action is required.
