I found an error in my NT server event log viewer that related to SQL server tempdb. The error detail is as follow:
Error Source: MSSQLServer
Type: Error
Category: Server
Description: "Error: 9002, Severity: 17, State:2"
"The log file for database 'tempdb" is full. Back up the transaction log for the database to free up some log space"
I am just wondering what is the cause of the problem and what should I do next to get rid of this problem.
Appreciated it if you can give me some idea what's the impact for this error and how to fix this problem.
We have a production SQLServer 6.5 running with service pack SP5a update:
I got the following 2 errors.....
1.
Error : 806, Severity: 21, State: 1 Could not find virtual page for logical page 67833121 in database 'tempdb' database 'tempdb'
2.
I got error when I ran a job for Update statistics Error : 614, Severity: 21, State: 3 A row on page 2697653 was accessed that has an illegal length of -8631 in database 'abc'.
For Error 2: I ran update statistics using query analyser. It is fine Is there anything I have to do further?
For Error 1 : The work around given by Microsoft ================================================= I ran DBCC CHECKTABLE(syslogs)
I am getting the following message on : master: Checking syslogs The total number of data pages in this table is 1. *** NOTICE: Notification of log space used/free cannot be reported because the log segment is not on its own device. Table has 11 data rows. DBCC execution completed. If DBCC printed error messages, see your System Administrator.
model: Checking syslogs The total number of data pages in this table is 47. *** NOTICE: Notification of log space used/free cannot be reported because the log segment is not on its own device. Table has 532 data rows. DBCC execution completed. If DBCC printed error messages, see your System Administrator.
tempdb:

I ran dbcc checkdb on master,model and tempdb . Still I get the same problem.
for tempdb:

All system databases and userdatabase recovered successfully when I restarted sqlserver.
I get this error message randomly when running a stored proc that creates a bunch of temp tables with indexes. Select/Into temp tables are also done. Has anyone seen this before? Thanks.

i have problem when i run stored procedure. "Could not allocate space for object '(SYSTEM table id: -594960911)' in database 'TEMPDB' because the 'DEFAULT' filegroup is full." can i change physical device "tempdb.mdf" and "tempdb.ldf" from drive c: to drive d:. tx be4, andi
Can't allocate space for object '-486' in database 'tempdb' because the 'system' segment is full.
This seems to suggest that tempdb is not large enough. However I can't see how to expand the database larger than the current 6mb. I can only expand the log, and have done so to a 1000mb. Still keep getting the same error.
Hello friends.. We are getting below error every day.we have job Shrink TempDB which runs every hour..but once a day we are getting this error.Is this error becasue of other jobs also running by that time which uses huge resource from DB..I cant understand why???.. can any body have an idea??

The size of the transaction logs in bothserver are the same (and cannot be changed manually). Both the dataand the transaction log of tempdb can automatically grow in 10%increment and no restriction on size.The data-and-log of the tempdb are both in one hard disk. The harddisk has 10-GB free space available. Moreover the size of the resultset from the "select" statement above is only 530KB (around 3000 rowsin the result-set). I believe it is a very small database operation.Therefore, I don't think the size has anything to do with the error.I don't think the "inner-join" clause is the cause of the problem. Thereason is that I have used the same "inner-join" clause in otherqueries, and they don't have any problem. As a matter of fact, I haveused many other queries that are far more complicated and have createdmuch bigger result set in tempdb, and they don't have this problem.I am very puzzled of this error. Can someone give me a pointer?Thanks in advance for any info.Jay Chan
During the night I run a checkdb that reported a error in tempdb, log down in post for more info.

I have an ASP.Net (C# 2.0) application that has been using SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition with Service Pack 1 to hold the session state in a testing environment. Currently, the session state is being stored in TempDB, rather than the ASPState database. This has worked very well for us until yesterday. We installed SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2, as well as the Critical Update for Service Pack 2 (KB933508). Once the SQL server was rebooted, I got the following error message when I tried to access the web application. The SELECT permission was denied on the object 'ASPStateTempApplications', database 'tempdb', schema 'dbo'.The SELECT permission was denied on the object 'ASPStateTempApplications', database 'tempdb', schema 'dbo'.The INSERT permission was denied on the object 'ASPStateTempApplications', database 'tempdb', schema 'dbo'. In the web.config file for the application, I have a SQL username and password defined that can access the ASPState database. To correct this issue, I had to give this user db_datareader and db_datawriter access to tempDB.
Has anyone else run across this problem, and is it related to SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 2?
has anyone met with this before?the setting is SQL2K with SP3 on a 2 node active-active W2K3 cluster.on one of the machine, it occasionally prompts for the following error:"The log file for database "tempdb" is full. Back up the transactionlog for the database to free up some log space."the problem is, at the time of error, the tempdb tx log is only 200MBand there are over 50G disk space available.settings of tempdb:-- 10% autogrow, unlimited max size-- auto shrink off-- data file around 1GThanks.
"tempdb is skipped. You cannot run a query that requires tempdb"?
We're running a .Net web application with a SQL Server 2000 backend, and we get the error intermittently. Restarting the SQL Server service seems to fix it, as it causes tempdb to be rebuilt, but this isn't a long term solution. Any direction or hints would be greatly appreciated. Thanks! - Mike
THis is sql server 6.5 question. I have tempdb data device size default 2 MB, which has completely filled up. I am trying to expand data device to it. I created new device tempdb_data_ext (250 MB) and tried to expand tempdb data device. But everytime I do it, it ends up adding space to tempdb log device. How can I expand tempdb data device?
Hi, How can I control the growth of tempdb in SQl server.It's growing like anything. CAn I create some alerts or jobs and what those alerts/job are supposed to do? All help appreciated. Jai
Hello! This is error message I discovered in NT even viewer: c:MSSQL7DATATEMPDB.MDF: Operating system error 112(There is not enough space on the disk.) encountered.
In SQL Server error log the errors are: Error: 1101, Severity: 17, State: 10
Could not allocate new page for database 'TEMPDB'. There are no more pages available in filegroup DEFAULT. Space can be created by dropping objects, adding additional files, or allowing file growth..
Currently tempdb rezides on C drive and it's almost out of space. What should I do? Detach tempdb and then move to different drive? What's the procedure?
TEMPDB in one of our production servers does not clear up so every three to four weeks I have to restart NT. Nothing like this happens on any of the other three servers. Does anybody know where I should look at to correct the problem. I sure would appreciate it. Thanks Shashu
I have never done this before and thought I would ask. Is it possible to detach the tempdb database, move it to another drive or partition, and then re-attach it? What would be the downside or side-affects to doing such a thing?
Error : 933, Severity: 22, State: 1 Logical page 258 of the log encountered while retrieving highest timestamp in database 'tempdb' is not the last page of the log and we are not currently recovering that database.
I use sqlserver -T4022 to start my SQL Server since it will not start with out it. When I start sqlserver without the option, it tells me that
Error : 615, Severity: 21, State: 1 Unable to find database table id = 2, name = 'tempdb'.
I need to move tempdb to another drive,also increase the size.Largest database is 15GB.Can anyone suggest the size and also the exact commands to move.Do I need to backup the databases before I do this task?If SP1 is not installed,will it be o.k for me for this tempdb problem.If we have a larger tempdb like 4GB,will it effect anything?...Urgent!!
I read an article on this site by Michael Hotek re "Basic SQL Server 6.5 Configuration Options". In the paragraph about TempDB he says that you should always avoid using Temp tables in stored procs. I use this feature a lot when trying to do "not in" type queries (I filter out a portion of a larger table and then use the "not in" on the temp table rather than the entire table.) Is there a better way to run a Not in query. I have the table well indexed (i think) but it seems to do a full table scan if I use the entire table.
Our Tempdb.mdf file is 11 gigs. I have tried several things to shrink this but with no luck. Does anybody have a suggestion on how I can free up that space. I have tried to re-start Sql but that didn't do anything. I thought that there was a bug, if the files got above 4 gig that sql wouldn't clear them, but I could be wrong
I thought I could detach it, and attach a new file, but makes me nervous without knowing if that’s correct.
I am trying to configure a 6.5 server to set the tempdb to run off disk. I reset the tempdb in ram = 0 in the configuration, and restarted the service, but it left it as running in ram, with 0 configured. I then rebooted the server, and it still left the tempdb in ram. Any ideas?
I am trying to get some information about tempdb database. I've tried BOL but I couldn't find a whole lot of info. I am trying to find out what size should tempdb be to not to cause problems. Also, I am trying to shrink tempdb by using shrink database option in EM, but it only shrinks the tempdb transaction log not the datafile, and I don't know why it is happening.
We are using Peoplesoft HRMS version 7.0 on NT Server 4.0 and SQL Server 6.5, service packs on both up-to-date.
The server is a HP LX Pro with 4 200 MHz 1MB cache processors with 2,560 MB of RAM and 18 9GB drives configured with different combinations of RAID 1, 1+0, and 5.
The database is 2.3GB in actual size with the specific size of 6GB for data and 2GB for log on separate RAIDs.
We would like to use tempdb in RAM to boost the speed of complex queries that use the tempdb for intermediate working tables.
We would like to know of any experience of running tempdb in RAM, issues to overcome, of how to setup.
There are articles and books not recommending using tempdb in RAM. Comments anyone?
Note: Have looked in SQL Server DBA Survival Guide, and SQL Server Unleashed, along with the normal MS Documentation, technet, online books, and knowledge base searches.
Everything I've ever heard or seen says not to put tempDB in RAM, citing reasons of negligible benefit or even worse performance as it steals memory from SQL's cache memory.
My issue is I need to take anywhere from 500 to 3000 records (games played) in a batch every five minutes from a table, ordered by game id. There's no guarantee of sequential order to how the records are inserted, so I need to do an ORDER BY in my query. I also do a stored procedure for ranking that requires an ORDER BY.
The performance difference between the two is staggering. 1000 records with a 200 mb tempdb database (not in RAM) takes about 300 seconds. With a 16 MB tempdb database IN ram, it takes just under 127 seconds. Only problem? I'm constantly getting, after a few batches have run, "out of space in syslogs for tempdb ram messages. "
Is there a way to net such performance from tempdb without putting it in RAM, and if not, is there a way to explicity clear out tempdb. Thanks for any help.
