Error in query with XML data type

I have a query that strips data from a XML string, inserts it into a table variable and queries it to insert the data into another table. It runs like a charm in my localhost environment, but not in my production SQL Server database. The error message is "INSERT failed because the following SET options have incorrect settings: 'ARITHABORT'. Verify that SET options are correct for use with indexed views and/or indexes on computed columns and/or query notifications and/or xml data type methods.'"

I think it has to do with my XML data. My XML data is read as it is, untyped.

I will appreciate any help with this. It probably has to do with some database setting, or something I have to improve in my query in order to achieve better standards.

Here is an example of the piece of data I am trying to insert:

<data><dataitem evaluateduserid="208" idcompetencylevel="90" /><dataitem evaluateduserid="211" idcompetencylevel="89" /><dataitem evaluateduserid="205" idcompetencylevel="90" /></data>

And here is my query:

ALTER PROC [dbo].[Spel_CM_AssessmentsDataInsertEventItem]
    @IdAssessmentEventItem int,
    @UserCompetencyLevel xml
AS
SET NOCOUNT ON

-- XML Data model:
-- <data>
--  <dataitem evaluateduserid="x" idcompetencylevel="y"></dataitem>
--</data>

DECLARE @TableUserCompetencyLevel table
(
    EvaluatedUserId int,
    IdCompetencyLevel int
)

INSERT INTO 
    @TableUserCompetencyLevel
    (
        EvaluatedUserId,
        IdCompetencyLevel
    )
SELECT
    EvaluatedUserId = aa.Item.value('@evaluateduserid', 'int'),
    IdCompetencyLevel = aa.Item.value('@idcompetencylevel', 'int')
FROM
    @UserCompetencyLevel.nodes('data/dataitem') AS aa(Item)


-- Delete previously existing data. This is useful in case the user is
-- updating an assessment event item
DELETE FROM
    Spel_CM_AssessmentsData
WHERE
    IdAssessmentEventItem = @IdAssessmentEventItem

-- Preparing to insert data...
DECLARE @IdAssessmentEvent int
SELECT @IdAssessmentEvent = da.[IdAssessmentEvent] FROM Spel_CM_AssessmentsEventsItems da WHERE da.[IdAssessmentEventItem] = @IdAssessmentEventItem


-- Inserts data into AssessmentsData table
INSERT INTO Spel_CM_AssessmentsData
(
    [IdAssessmentEvent],
    [IdAssessmentEventItem],
    [EvalatedUserId],
    [IdCompetencyLevel]
)

SELECT
    @IdAssessmentEvent,
    @IdAssessmentEventItem,
    ca.[EvaluatedUserId],
    ca.[IdCompetencyLevel]
FROM
    @TableUserCompetencyLevel ca
WHERE
    (NOT ca.[EvaluatedUserId] IS NULL)
    AND
    ((NOT ca.[IdCompetencyLevel] IS NULL) AND (NOT ca.[IdCompetencyLevel] = ''))

-- Updates the AssessmentsEventsItems table to confirm that the items have been inserted
EXECUTE Spel_CM_AssessmentsEventsItemsUpdate @IdAssessmentEventItem, 1


SET NOCOUNT OFF

Thank you!

XML data type requires certain SET options to be set in a certain manner. See Setting Options (xml Data Type). Specifically, ARITHABORT must be ON.
