im testing an application change that should handle a timeout on a stored procedure being called from the application. thing is, the timeout that we experience in production that led to this fix is random. so is there some way for me to setup a test stored procedure or some way to call the SP so that i can test a timeout scenario?
im using MFC and the CDatabase::ExecuteSQL method to call this SP if you were wondering at all.
this app is running locally on the server that has an instance of SQL Server Express 2k5 on it. server is running win 2k3.
Hello, I have to transfer lets say once a day arround 30 000 records from one table into another. The query uses cursor and should check if the record exists to make update, otherwise to make insert. On this ammount of data, in visual studio I get Connection Timeout. I even unselected "Cancel long running query" in Tools/Options/Database tools, and I still get timeout. When using Sql Server management studio it works and it takes long time. I know that this query executes long time, but it will run in the middle of the night and nobody will bother. I could have transfered this data in the application and then return it to the database one by one, but why unnecesary transport? How do I get the stored procedure running without this timeout? Thanks
I am having a problem with a long running stored proceudure timing out in a web page. Details:
In ASP page - run stored procedure After approx 30 seconds, I get the error msg:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e31'
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Timeout expired
xxx.asp, line 284
(this is where the exec statement is for the stored procedure)
The procuedure takes approx 2:20 to run directly in Query Analyzer. Any ideas on how to ensure that the page waits for the entire query to finish and return results? I suspect that some fine tuning can be done on the procedure but it will still take longer than the 30 seconds that the browser is giving it to run...
Notes - query works. takes 2:20 to complete. ASP - Server Timeout set to 600 seconds for the ASP page. SQL Server timeout set to 0 (unlimited) SQL 7 SP1 applied
I am running a large insert in a stored procedure, and it is timing out after 30 seconds (which I take to be the default). Can anyone tell me how to change the timeout from inside the stored procedure?
In simple terms, our system is as such: We have a website. As someone clicks a button on the website, a stored procedure is executed against our database.
Every single day, between 12:15AM and 12:45AM we have a few stored procedures timing out, with the following message, for example:
2007-04-10 00:37:03,268 [3632] ERROR Service - caught exception Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding. at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.OnError(SqlExc eption exception, Boolean breakConnection)
I checked and saw that although there are jobs running at that time, all of these jobs are running periodically (e.g. every 30 minutes) and would cause timeouts at other times as well, if they were to blame. Other jobs are running at far away times and checking their history I know that their duraion in no way intersects the time-out times.
I also ran profiler during peak hours and know that no stored procedure of ours has a duration anywhere near 30 seconds (which is the currently set timeout period, although all of our sps run within milliseconds).
I am really puzzled as to what exactly is causing these timeouts. Would anyone suggest any approach to identify the problem. For example, I thought about running profiler (server side tracing) between 12AM and 1AM, but am not sure which counters are best to capture. Any suggestion on this?
I Have a problem When I execute a stored procedure from query analyzer (Exec storedname @parameter1='', @Parameter2='') it take 7 min. and I stop running
If I copy stored procedure , past it in Query analyzer and declare parameters it take 3 sec.
Hi, I'm running a CLR stored procedure through my web using table adapters as follows: res = BLL.contractRateAdviceAdapter.AutoGenCRA() 'with BLL being the business logic layer that hooks into the DAL containing the table adapters. The AutoGen stored procedure runs fine when executed directly from within Management Studio, but times out after 30 seconds when run from my application. It's quite a complex stored procedure and will often take longer than 30 seconds to complete. The stored procedure contains a number of queries and updates which all run as a single transaction. The transaction is defined as follows: ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- options.IsolationLevel = Transactions.IsolationLevel.ReadUncommittedoptions.Timeout = New TimeSpan(1, 0, 0) Using scope As New TransactionScope(TransactionScopeOption.Required, options) 'Once we've opened this connection, we need to pass it through to just about every 'function so it can be used throughout. Opening and closing the same connection doesn't seem to work 'within a single transactionUsing conn As New SqlConnection("Context Connection=true") conn.Open() ProcessEffectedCRAs(dtTableInfo, arDateList, conn) scope.Complete() End Using End Using ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As I said, the code encompassed within this transaction performs a number of database table operations, using the one connection. Each of these operations uses it's own instance of SQLCommand. For example: ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Dim dt As DataTable Dim strSQL As StringDim cmd As New SqlCommand cmd.Connection = conn cmd.CommandType = CommandType.Text cmd.CommandTimeout = 0Dim rdr As SqlDataReaderstrSQL = "SELECT * FROM " & Table cmd.CommandText = strSQL rdr = cmd.ExecuteReader SqlContext.Pipe.Send(rdr) rdr.Close() ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Each instance of SQLCommand throughout the stored procedure specifies cmd.CommandTimeout = 0, which is supposed to be endless. And the fact that the stored procedure is successful when run directly from Management studio indicates to me that the stored procedure itself is fine. I also know from output messages that there is no issues with the database connection. I've set the ASP.Net configuration properties in IIS accordingly. Are there any other settings that I need to change? Can I set a timeout property when I'm calling the stored procedure in the first place? Any advice would be appreciated.
I have a stored procedure when query a big table about 500,000 records. When I run the stored procedure in the query analyzer, it is very fast and it only takes 2~3 seconds. However, when my aspx page try to call this stored-procedure with a Command's ExecuteReader method like bellow:
I always get timeout expired exception. I try to set the connection timeout and command timeout to 100 seconds. The exception is gone but the average execution time is about 25 seconds! While the stored-procedure only takes about 2~3 seconds in query analyzer with the same parameter.
What could be the problem?? I tried to figure this out for a couple days but still no clue.
i have a express set up and running a table filled with a few batches of records. Each batch has approx. 20k records. I have a program that inserts a new batch into the table. afterwards, it makes a call to a stored procedure. this SP compares the last batch with the latest batch and marks the records as additions, updated, or deleted records (which will be used by the program). the problem im experiencing is that the comparison algorithm is getting the "Timeout expired" error returning back to my program. the SP seems to take roughly 1-3 minutes to make the comparisons. i tried setting the execution timeout to 0 (no timeout) in Options->Query Execution->SQL Server->General but i still encounter the problem. am i changing the wrong option for this or is there something else i can try? im going to try to reproduce this database in SQL Server 2000 so i can use the profiler, but im running into problems exporting the database to an older version (im not familiar with bcp, which im looking into). any advice until then?
produces the exception: "Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding." on the ExecuteNonQuery() line.
It's not a problem with the CommandTimeout or the ConnectionTimeout (from within the connection string), they are both set to 300 (and even when set to 0, the problem is the same).
It's very strange, because only two stored procedures don't work, the others work without any problems and under SQL Server (using EXEC stored_procedure) all of them work fine. It seems like the stored procedure is executed, but no response is returned to the client (the WinForm app), thus the timeout exception.
How to optimize the following Stored procedure running on MSSQL server 2000 sp4 :
CREATE PROCEDURE proc1 @Franchise ObjectId , @dtmStart DATETIME , @dtmEnd DATETIME AS BEGIN
SET NOCOUNT ON
SELECT p.Product , c.Currency , c.Minor , a.ACDef , e.Event , t.Dec , count(1) "Count" , sum(Amount) "Total" FROM tb_Event t JOIN tb_Prod p ON ( t.ProdId = p.ProdId ) JOIN tb_ACDef a ON ( t.ACDefId = a.ACDefId ) JOIN tb_Curr c ON ( t.CurrId = c.CurrId ) JOIN tb_Event e ON ( t.EventId = e.EventId ) JOIN tb_Setl s ON ( s.BUId = t.BUId and s.SetlD = t.SetlD ) WHERE Fran = @Franchise AND t.CDate >= @dtmStart AND t.CDate <= @dtmEnd AND s.Status = 1 GROUP BY p.Product , c.Currency , c.Minor , a.ACDef , e.Event , t.Dec
Hi all - I'm trying to optimized my stored procedures to be a bit easier to maintain, and am sure this is possible, not am very unclear on the syntax to doing this correctly. For example, I have a simple stored procedure that takes a string as a parameter, and returns its resolved index that corresponds to a record in my database. ie exec dbo.DeriveStatusID 'Created' returns an int value as 1 (performed by "SELECT statusID FROM statusList WHERE statusName= 'Created') but I also have a second stored procedure that needs to make reference to this procedure first, in order to resolve an id - ie: exec dbo.AddProduct_Insert 'widget1' which currently performs:SET @statusID = (SELECT statusID FROM statusList WHERE statusName='Created')INSERT INTO Products (productname, statusID) VALUES (''widget1', @statusID) I want to simply the insert to perform (in one sproc): SET @statusID = EXEC deriveStatusID ('Created')INSERT INTO Products (productname, statusID) VALUES (''widget1', @statusID) This works fine if I call this stored procedure in code first, then pass it to the second stored procedure, but NOT if it is reference in the second stored procedure directly (I end up with an empty value for @statusID in this example). My actual "Insert" stored procedures are far more complicated, but I am working towards lightening the business logic in my application ( it shouldn't have to pre-vet the data prior to executing a valid insert). Hopefully this makes some sense - it doesn't seem right to me that this is impossible, and am fairly sure I'm just missing some simple syntax - can anyone assist?

But I do not know how to get the SqlConnection and the SqlDataAdapter into the Form1. I do not know how to get the Fill Method implemented properly.

Hi All,I have a report ASP.NET page that allow users to run a report by clicking a buttion to call a store procedure to generate the report, however, the store procedure is taking a few minutes to return the data, thus I got the 'timeout' error message on my page. How do I extend the time on my page?Thanks
I have written a stored procedure that i then execute in a loop within a wrapper procedure:
WHILE somecondition
BEGIN
EXEC dbo.PROC1
END
If i run the procedure manually i can run it time after time with no error. However if i execute the procedure above i get a timeout error after about 2 or 3 loops.
How can i avoid this?
I have been reading everywhere and i dont seem to be able to find a solution...
I have some code that I need to run every quarter. I have many that are similar to this one so I wanted to input two parameters rather than searching and replacing the values. I have another stored procedure that's executed from this one that I will also parameter-ize. The problem I'm having is in embedding a parameter in the name of the called procedure (exec statement at the end of the code). I tried it as I'm showing and it errored. I tried googling but I couldn't find anything related to this. Maybe I just don't have the right keywords. what is the syntax?

is there a way to set timeout in a stored procedure?? I'm running a stored procedure but 10% of the time it will time out and when I say retry it works just fine. I'm wondering if I set the timeout large enough it won't run into that error. I'd like to know what would be the best way to avoid it AND how to set timeout in stored procedures..
When I execute a long running procedure, I get timeout errors when other users try to execute other procedures with UPDATE or INSERT statements.
I suspect that the other procedures are trying to execute DML statements on tables that are locked by the long running procedure.
I have a sharred trigger on all my tables that creates and updates records in tables AuditLogDetails and AuditLogParent for keeping a log of modifications. I suspect that tables AuditoLogDetails and AuditLogParent are locked by the long running procedure.
How can I change the LOCKING behavior of the long running procedure to fix the time out errors that I get?
The long running procedure is displayed below.

We have a stored procedure that will return at most about 600 records. In almost all cases it works fine, but in a few odd cases the command times out when used from a webform. We changed the CommandTimeout property to 120 seconds... no difference. If we run a query that times out in Query Analyzer, it runs in under 3 seconds (on the SQL Server machine). We also did a lot of profiling, and for any page that runs fine, the query takes about the same time when called from a webform and run in the Query Analyzer. We ran our tests on the pre-production environment with absolutely no one else on the machines. We also created a test page that just fills a DataSet. Straightforward... get connection object, create command, set params, create data adapter, fill dataset. It suffers the same problem.
The web server and SQL server are two separate machines. Oh, and before I forget... This is SQL 2000. It used to run SQL 7, and all the queries there were (slightly) slower, but none timed out, not even the ones that do now.
Maybe the first question should be: How can it be that a query that runs fine in Query Analyzer times out from a webform?
I've been researching this problem for weeks and I haven't gotten very far with it so I was hoping to get some help here.
Here's the error information we get: Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding. ---> System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.
This particular error comes from a .net application, but we've seen similar "query timeout errors" from a vb6 application roughly 6 months ago.
Here are the facts we've narrowed down:
1) The timeout happens at seemingly random times (very sporadic). 2) It's currently only happening on a few stored procedures (if requested, I'll provide one of the stored procedures, but it's basically a complex search procedure). 3) To resolve the timeout error, we've found 2 temporary solutions:
A) have all clients exit the program thus closing all active connections (less than 10 connection in a 4-5 user setup) B) I run the following script when the timeout occurs and then the stored procedure runs smoothly:
Code Block
sp_configure 'remote query timeout', 0 reconfigure with override sp_configure 'remote query timeout', 600 reconfigure with override 4) Running the stored procedure from our application and from SQL Management studio express, is the same, except management studio doesn't time out and actually runs as long as it takes (roughly 1 minute 20 seconds or under 1 second after the script above runs).
We're pretty stumpted and it's happened at 5 different client sites with little in common. One of our sites is even running SQL express off the workstation with nothing else running and it still occurs.
I'm open to trying practically anything at this point, but unfortuntenly we have not been able to reproduce this behavior in our testing enviroment so I can't give much information for others to reproduce.
This is a problem for that I lost a weekend to reach to this conclusions:
Here is the scenario: I need a file downloaded from a FTP server on my SQL 2005 DB Server to process it in several ways. This file is tens of MBs (let's say 50MB). I set up a CLR stored procedure to bring it locally on the machine.
Inside this procedure, call it getFtpFile, I use the FtpWebRequest to issue the commands I need to the FTP server (get the file size and download the file). For reading and writing I use a StreamReader sr and a StreamWriter. sw
I read the remote file in block with: sr.ReadBlock(buf, 0, blockSizeBytes);
Everything work file until the last block that, most probably will not be of size blockSizeBytes, but smaller. So, what happens is that when I read this last block there is an exception raised from the call saying: The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a receive.
This happens only if: -> the code runs inside SQL (calling the SP) (it runs perfect on normal tet environment where I have another executable and call the getFtpFile method in the CLR dll); -> 100 seconds (100000 miliseconds) (exactly) have passed (small files do not experiencing this problem)
I thought the reader writer scheme is not perfect and implemented again with a simple FileStream.WriteByte(response.GetResponseStream().Read()); This approach, even if very slow, still has the problem after 100 seconds, in a CLR SQL environment, when it reads the at the last character.
I have used all the combinations of KeepAlive and response.Closose(). Problems still there.
Conclusion: There must be a 100 seconds timeout that immediately after my last byte has been received, closes the connection and the stream of the response crashes during this last call.
I have a stored procedure that calls a msdb stored procedure internally. I granted the login execute rights on the outer sproc but it still vomits when it tries to execute the inner. Says I don't have the privileges, which makes sense.
How can I grant permissions to a login to execute msdb.dbo.sp_update_schedule()? Or is there a way I can impersonate the sysadmin user for the call by using Execute As sysadmin some how?
Has anyone encountered cases in which a proc executed by DTS has the following behavior: 1) underperforms the same proc when executed in DTS as opposed to SQL Server Managemet Studio 2) underperforms an ad-hoc version of the same query (UPDATE) executed in SQL Server Managemet Studio
What could explain this?
Obviously,
All three scenarios are executed against the same database and hit the exact same tables and indices.
Query plans show that one step, a Clustered Index Seek, consumes most of the resources (57%) and for that the estimated rows = 1 and actual rows is 10 of 1000's time higher. (~ 23000).
The DTS execution effectively never finishes even after many hours (10+) The Stored procedure execution will finish in 6 minutes (executed after the update ad-hoc query) The Update ad-hoc query will finish in 2 minutes
I am trying to debug stored procedure using visual studio. I right click on connection and checked 'Allow SQL/CLR debugging' .. the store procedure is not local and is on sql server.
Whenever I tried to right click stored procedure and select step into store procedure> i get following error
"User 'Unknown user' could not execute stored procedure 'master.dbo.sp_enable_sql_debug' on SQL server XXXXX. Click Help for more information"
I am not sure what needs to be done on sql server side
We tried to search for sp_enable_sql_debug but I could not find this stored procedure under master.
Some web page I came accross says that "I must have an administratorial rights to debug" but I am not sure what does that mean?
I have an Itanium 64bit server to run SSIS packages on. I have one package with three parralell streams. When I run the package in 64 bit mode using dtexec, it runs through validation and exits with no reported errors, when I run it from a job, the job fails and says to see job log, which has no errors.
When I run it in 32 bit mode using the GUI, it runs all the way through.
Does anyone know how to launch SSIS in 32 bit mode from a job on an Itanium?
This is a really wide spread - more than a time discussed - on SQL CE MSDN Forums - Issue !!! Is there any way i can commit changes which happens during runtime (when i am developing the application) such as inserts/updates and deletes to the .sdf DB on the machine ?????
