sp_whoisactive keeps returning create procedure statements When I run sp_whoisactive on my server it often shows create statements being run for stored procedures but this doesn't make any sense since the procedure already exists.

See the following example:

dd hh:mm:ss.mss session_id  sql_text
00 00:00:00.120 103 CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[TempGetStateItemExclusive3]
00 00:00:00.140 274 CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[TempGetStateItemExclusive3]
00 00:00:00.133 324 CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[TempGetStateItemExclusive3]


This is from one run of sp_whoisactive it looks like there are three sessions creating the procedure. Is this something I am misinterpreting or if not how can I find out where this is coming from? These create statements are blocking actual inserts.

I am executing 

EXEC sp_WhoIsActive 
     @find_block_leaders = 1, 
     @sort_order = '[blocked_session_count] DESC',
     @get_full_inner_text = 1


The batch being executed is (which is a stored procedure from asp.net SQL Server based session state but I am seeing the exact same thing for other stored procedures as well)

CREATE PROCEDURE [dbo].[TempGetStateItemExclusive3]
        @id         tSessionId,
        @itemShort  tSessionItemShort OUTPUT,
        @locked     bit OUTPUT,

Please show us the parameters of the execution of SP_whoIsActive. I remember there was a parameter switched between showing the actual statement or the batch/procedure that contained that statement.

If I'm not wrong:

@get_full_inner_text = 0 -- 1-shows SP/batch, 0-shows statement;


should be the one.
Switch it to 0 and see if it's changing the way the output is shown.
