Lock Problem And Application Is Slowed Down
Nov 4, 2006
Dear Memebers,
I have a critical problem. I have an application is running on 64 bit
machine. It used to be running on 32 bit machine. That application is
using a Stored Procedure that uses SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE statements.
Whenever this applicataion is being run all the processes are locked
and INSERTING operation becomes cumbersome. We tested again on 32 bit
machine however it happened again. So what might be the problem? Can
somebody help me ? Application creates a lot of processes in a minute
Should SQL Server be caple of recieving these fast inserting processes?
As a DB Admin what should I do to find out whether this problem is
coming from SQL Server or not?
If you respond me ASAP I really appreciate it
Regards
LS

I have a question related to implementing application locks. We have two idential apllication processes written in C# which call stored procedures. Both processes access the same table, and potentially could race to access the same row. The work involves fetching one record in a table and calling some web service to determine whether it needs to change it, and apply the change if necessary.
We want to ensure that only 1 process is "working" on a given record, i.e. if process A has access to the record then process B should let it go, and vice versa.
We're thinking of introducing a column in the table called "locked", and create a stored procedure to "lock" and "unlock" a given record.
So process A or B will do something like (pseudo code):
1- call sp to "lock" the record
2- call web service to determine what to do with it
3- make update to the record
4- call sp to "unlock" the record
For the store procedure to lock, would the following work:
------------------
UPDATE some_table
WHERE locked = false AND id = @record_id
SET locked = true
-- see if we acquired the lock
IF @@ROWCOUNT == 1
------------------
The update statement checks if the row wasn't "locked", and "locks" it only if it's not "locked".
My question is would this work? i.e. would the update statement execute atomically, i.e. test if lock is not acquired, and acquire it by flagging it as "locked"?
Thanks,
Aladin

I had a query that executed in about 20 seconds pulling from database 1. The only changes I made were to make it pull from database 2. It is currently running and has been for over an hour and a half.

Hi,
I've deleted about 3-4 million rows from one of my tables as the data was old and no longer needed. The problem is that now queries are runnning extra slow. I am in the process of running taras isp_ALTER_INDEX however its taking quite a long time and seems to be slowing things down even further while its running as expected. (It's been running 4 hours already, I have stopped it and will rerun it a slower traffic period for the db server)
Just wondering if I have the right approach here or if anyone else has any suggestions.
Thanks for your help!

HI
I have a very simple query that simply does this: select * from badgetemplates where badgeid=39 , the badge template table has four fields, one of them is of type IMAGE, however the data on badge 39 IMAGE field only amounts to about 600kb, it used to run very quickly (a second or so) now it takes over a minute, i have checked this via the SQL profiler. What is strange is if I remove some of the data stored within the IMAGE field and reduce it to much smaller that 600kb it runs very quickly again. 600kb is fairly small and it used to return this very quickly as I say. Other queries are running at normal speed and the server perfomance does not seem to be reduced elsewhere, it only seems to have effected this only table but only with data over a certain size, the table itself only contains 20 or so rows. What could this be?!
Any help would be really appreciated as I have no clue.....

I simply made my script task (or any other task) fail
In my package error handler i have a Exec SQL task - for Stored Proc
SP statement is set in following expression (works fine in design time):
"EXEC [dbo].[us_sp_Insert_STG_FEED_EVENT_LOG] @FEED_ID= " + (DT_WSTR,10) @[User::FEED_ID] + ", @FEED_EVENT_LOG_TYPE_ID = 3, @STARTED_ON = '"+(DT_WSTR,30)@[System::StartTime] +"', @ENDED_ON = NULL, @message = 'Package failed.

And how did I get 4 errors? - I only set my script task result to failure

Hi
We are facing an acute situation in our web-application. Technology is ASP.NEt/VB.NET, SQL Server 2000.
Consider a scenario in which User 1 is clicking on a button which calls a SQL stored procedure. This procedure selects Group A of records of Database Page1.
At the same time if User 2 also clicks the same button which calls same SQL stored procedure. This procedure selects Group B of records of Database Page1.
So, its the same Page1 but different sets of records. At this moment, both the calls have shared locked on the Page1 inside the procedure.
Now, in call 1, inside the procedure after selecting Group A of records, the next statement is and update to those records. As soon as update statement executes, SQL Server throws a deadlock exception as follows :
Transaction (Process ID 78) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Rerun the transaction
We are able to understand why its happening. Its because, Group A and Group B of records are on the same Page1. But both the users have shared lock on the Page1. So, no one gets the exclusive lock in records for update, even though, the records are different.
How can I resolve this issue? How can I get lock on wanted rows instead of entire page?
Please advice. Thanks a bunch.

Hi,
I have set of 2 DTS packages, one of which calls the other by forming a command-line (dtexec) using a Execute Process task.
From the parent package-> Execute Process Task->
dtsexec /F etc... /<pkg variable> = "servername"
Each of the parent and the called package have a variable: "User::DWServerSQLInstance" which is mapped to the SQL server connection manager server name property using an expression. The outer package has the above variable and so does the inner called package (which gets assigned through the command line from the outerpackage call to inner)
I "sometimes" get the following error:
OnError,I4,TESTDOMAdministrator,ACDWAggregation,{A1F8E43F-15F1-4685-8C18-6866AB31E62B},{77B2F3C7-6756-46EB-8C01-D880598FB4B3},5/22/2006 5:10:28 PM,5/22/2006 5:10:28 PM,-1073659822,0x,The variable "User::DWServerSQLInstance" is already on the read list. A variable may only be added once to either the read lock list or the write lock list.
Help would be appreciated!
I have seen other posts on this but, not able to relate the solution to my scenario.

Hi All,
I have seen a few other people have this error.
Package works fine when run from BIDS, DTExec, dtexecui. When I schedule it, It get these random errors. (See below)
The main culprit is a variable called "RecordsetFileDIR" which is set using an expression. (@[User::_ROOT] + "RecordSets\")
A number of other variables use this as part of their expression and as they all fail, pretty much everything dies.
I have installed SP1 (Not Beta) on server. Package uses config files to set the value of _ROOT.
The error does not always seem to be with this particular variable though. Always a variable that uses an expression but errors are random. Also, It will run 3 out of 10 times without a problem. I am the only person on the server at the time.
Any ideas?
Cheers,
Crispin

Hi,
I want to lock a table so others cannot lock it but able to read it inside transactions.
The coding I need is something like this: set implicit_transactions on begin transaction select * from table1 with (tablock, holdlock) update table2 set field1 = 'test' commit transaction commit transaction
I have tried the coding above, it won't prevent others from locking table1.
So, I changed the tablock to tablockx to prevent others from locking table1. But this will also prevent others from reading table1. So, how can I lock table1 so others cannot lock it but still able to read it?
Thank you for any help

Hello,
An application we are designing is behaving rather strangely. Basically, we
have a trigger on SQL 2000 on W2K Server watching for a record update. When
that happens a stored procedure gets executed which in turn spawns a VB that extracts that record, applies some rules to it, and writes a text file to disk. 9 out of 10 times, this program will cause a CPU spin, and it can't be killed from the Task Manager.
I did not write the VB app, I am writing the front end for the application in ColdFusion, but I need some ideas on what might be causing such behavior and how can the problem can be diagnosed. Thanks for any help!

Is it good practice to use WITH (NO LOCK) on SELECT statements, ie
SELECT * FROM MyTable WITH(NO LOCK)
Or does the SQL Server optimiser automatically use WITH (NO LOCK) ?

Hello,
Wondering if anyone might have a guess about this.
I have a small 4 table DB. it's got several stored proc's and it's accessed through .NET to fill it in and get data from it.
It's been working just fine. But this morning, while it was doing its thing, I experimented with it by adding then deleting a View (through the View Wizard.)
Then later I started noticing that my .Net calls had slowed to a crawl (I hadn't made any code changes)and even making direct queries through Query Analyzer had slowed too.
My question is: being that there were no network issues, could the View create/delete have caused the DB to come to a halt or perhaps a table lock-up?
While I'm at it, is there anything that I can put in stored proc's or other places to prevent locking issues (if that's what happened here.)
I already use Begin/Commit Tran pairs.
And sorry if this post doesn't read like a SQL beginner, but believe me, I am.
Thanks for your advice!!

Lets say i have a view.
vuTestingNoLocks
this view looks like this...
Create View vuTestingNoLocks as
SElect *
From dbo.Employees
inner Join dbo.EmployeeTerritories on EmployeeTerritories.EmployeeID = Employees.EmployeeID
If I select from this view using Select * From vuTestingNoLocks (NOLOCK)
Does the (nolock) command propegate down through the tables? Meaning will it scan tables that are locked still ignoring their locks?

I'm working with SQL Server Express, and I want to configure a named instance so that only the 'sa' user and a specified SQL Server user with a specified password have access. In particular, I'm trying to lock out BUILTINAdministrators. Furthermore, I need to be able to do this from a command-line, since I want to configure it in a script. Nothing I do seems to work.
I've attempted to use sqlcmd and the T-SQL call ALTER LOGIN [BUILTINAdministrators] DISABLE, but that returns the error "Cannot alter the login 'BUILTINAdministrators' because it does not exist or you do not have permission."
What I can (apparently) successfully do is run DENY CONTROL TO [BUILTINAdministrators]. This runs without reporting an error. However, after running it against the 'master' database and the specific database in my named instance I care about, I can still run the following:
sqlcmd -S (local)MyInstance -d MyDB -Q "select * from my_table"
and see the contents of my_table.
What do I need to do to restrict access exclusively to 'sa' and other SQL users I designate?

Hi,all:
This problem almost drives me crazy, hope I can get some hints from you guyz!!!
Ok, here is the situation:
I wanna only one users 2 modify the data(update) from my page each time, and if at the same time, there are some other users connecting my database through .aspx page, they can only browse the data until the first users finish updating.
It seems I need to implement locking the database, but I am not sure how I am gonna do that using asp.net!!!
Thanx in advance!

I have a process that is running on a windows service that feeds a web applications database. While the windows service is processing the data the web application can't get to the data, this causes a minute or two delay, no so bad if it didn't happen every two minutes. What I am wondering is if I can set something on the ado.net transaction object that might get me around this problem. I don't know if i want a dirty read, because that would cause the web app to have exceptions. Any tips around this would be great. Thanks in advance

With the Oracle RDBMS, readers never wait for writers and writers never wait
for readers. If a SELECT
starts reading at 9:01 and encounters a row that was updated (by another
session) at 9:02, Oracle
reaches into a rollback segment and digs up the pre-update value for the
SELECT. A transaction does
not need to take locks unless it is modifying a table and, even then, only
takes locks on the specific
rows that are to be modified.
How does MS SQL Server 7.0 handle this problem? Thanks for any info or
pointers!

I am getting a resource issue on a server for obtaining locks. Looking for ideas. This is a sql 2000 server running on Win 2003 with 16 gig of RAM on a new Dell quad box with data on a SAN. That's the good news. The bad news it is a 3rd party app which I have almost no ability to change. The users connect through Citrix with about 400 concurrent at a time. I was looking at setting a higher min lock issue. yesterday it sent me the dreaded alert Fatal error in resources with this issue and buried the server at 100 CPU for about 2 minutes. Any help or insight appreciated. Most of my standard sql data looks OK, Cache at about 99, system queue at about .8.
