SQL 2005 Express Timeout On Simple Queries
May 5, 2007
Hi everybody!
I have made a simple application with VB6 and SQL 2005 Express.
And after testing it in a network simulated with Virtual-Machine Workstation, the "real world" application was first getting slower and slower, and finally giving timeout errors.
It is even difficult to connect. The application times out always at 30 secs although the ado connection timeout was established longer (45)
I have checked on the machine where the server is installed, just in case the slow down was due to network problems, but it fail locally too.
Any help is wellcome

I have been trying to export an sql2000 database to sql2005 with no luck. I continuosly get the error
Msg 0, Level 11, State 0, Line 0
A severe error occurred on the current command. The results, if any, should be discarded.
I have looked upon all support material and have installed the latest sql2005 service pack, but this has not fixed the problem. a simple query as:
select * from [transaction] ta,transactionentry tr
where tr.transactionnumber=ta.transactionnumber and
glacctid=6 and ta.[time]> '3/01/2006'
would produce this fatal error.
the current version I am using is:
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.1399.06 (Intel X86) Oct 14 2005 00:33:37 Copyright (c) 1988-2005 Microsoft Corporation Standard Edition on Windows NT 5.2 (Build 3790: Service Pack 1)
This problem is happening on some of the most important tables in the database.
the error log contains the following:

I have upsized some Access 2002 tables to Sql Server 2005 express. I put together a query and when I try to execute it, it tells me the MS Access is an earlier version prior to SQL server 2005 and it will not save the queries. When I try to run them anyway, I get the repeated message and the query never executes. I'm taking a T-SQL class and this is how the instructor. Is they a fix for SQL Server or Access to get around this or do I have to revert back to MDSE 2000?? Can MDSE 2000 and SQL Server be loaded onto the same machine (laptop)? Help!!!!! I am very new at this...

If applicable, what's the limit on concurrent queries supported by SQL Server 2005 Express? Also, if there's a limit, does next connection after the max errors out or merely queues up?
Thanks,

Normally I'd go and write a bunch of code for doing it manually... But instead of that, maybe there is a smarter way?
What I know is that you can get some kind of dump out of MySQL but I would be very surprised if that could be directly read into SQL Express ??
So if you have a few step guide to migrate from MySQL to SQL Express, I am all ears (and eyes)!
Thanks!
(Yes I am aware there is some DTS thingy for this but could not find it in the Express folders)

Hi there,
I am trying to create an un-attended SQL 2005 Express install. I have successfully made my own template.ini file to install SQL the way I like but I cannot find a way to make it install with the "Ad hox remote queries" option enabled.
Is there anyway to do this? I can't seem to find any switches in the INI file to allow this.
Thanks

Allow me to preface this by saying I'm really excited about writing stored procedures, etc. in C#!! Now...on to my question. When an application needs a simple result set (i.e., SELECT....), why use C# to write this? In the samples I've seen, the developer ends up writing the select statement anyway in the CLR hosted stored procedure. What would be the benefit? You end up writing more code just to write the same query. Now, executing complex logic is another story. I see HUGE benefits to hosting classes on the data server. Anyway, what is Microsoft's answer to this question? Is it recommended that one still write simple statements in T-SQL and leave the complex stuff to CLR code? Thanks in advance for your advice!

Hi, please excuse me if this seems like a daft or badly formed question.
A colleage mentioned that when constructing the where clause in a query that it was important what order the criteria were entered. They weren't sure themsleves but the idea was that starting from the bottom of the query you should add the criteria that will have the effect of reducing the data the most and then work 'up' the query back to the from clause.
As a dodgy example, if you have a staff table and you want to run a specific query on all staff over 75 that are male, then:
where gender = "male"
and age >- 75
The reasoning being that the age criteria would reduce the size of the data being worked on more than the gender criteria.
It's been a while since I've had to look at intermediate tables etc but i'm pretty sure this suggestion will not make any difference to the performance of a query.
Thanks,
Matt

how can I fill a data set with a multi parameter filter:
I want to create in my form few textboxes and create a query that filters the dataset to show only the specific data.
but the problem is if the user doesn't supply any words in some textbox the dataset is not filled.
it would be a good solution for me if I can either:
for example let's say my query is SELECT * FROM table WHERE column = @parameter,
i want to write before the query something like "if @parameter="" then replace the query syntax near WHERE with * so it looks SELECT * FROM table WHERE column = *.
or:
if there is some character or character series that sql reconizes in a parameter as an asterisk.
thank you for your time!

Hi,
My scenario:
I have a master securities table which has 7 fields. As a part of the daily process I am uploading flat files into database tables. The flat files contains the master(static) security data as well as the analytics(transaction) data. I need to
1) separate the master (static) data from the flat files,
2) check whether that data is present in the master table, if not then insert that data into the master table
3) If data present then move that existing record to an history table and then update the main master table.
All the 7 fields need to be checked to uniquely identify a single record in the master table.
How can this be done? Whether we can us a combination of data flow items or write a sql procedure to do all this.
Thanks in advance for your help.
Regards,
$wapnil

The default is sest to 15 seconds that of course is no good because it takes more than that to attact the damm database though is very small.
Does any one know how to modify the connection timeout?
I'd try including it on the Connection String but no luck. it looks like it detaches the database after a period of inactivity.
If anyone knows anything about please let me know

I get the following error message:
SQL Exectution error,
Exectuted SQL statement: SELECT...
Source: .Net SqlClient data provider
Message: Timeout expired, timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation...
The view is operating on a table of ~250,000 records. The timeout occurs after 45 seconds, and none of the changes I make to the various timeout settings in the server or database seem to affect this.
When I execute the same sql statement in a query window it does complete, requiring about 7 minutes to execute.
How can I configure the view not to timeout when executing this query?

SQL Server 2000, ASP.Net 1.1
I've been writing this stuff for a while, and can't seem to come to the
conclusion of how I should be retrieving data and assigning this data
to variables.
Since i'm using SQL Server, I'm convinced that I should be using the
datareaders GetSqlDouble (or whatever) function, but this would mean i
need my local variables to be one of the SQL types. The problem
with that is, that there will have to be lots of conversions done by me
to be able to use a SQL type in my application.
For instance, I have a class where i'm retrieving dates. In order
to retrieve them correctly (Null values included), I need to retrieve
them with GetSqlDateTime(), then when it comes time to display the date
in a table, i must first check for nulls, then convert to a
string. This seems to be very cumbersome. Would I be better
off just using GetDateTime(), and the .ToString method, and ignoring
Sql Types all together?
so, basically, how are you guys using your sql server data? with
the supplied sql types, and doing all of the post-processing work
manually? I feel like i'm having trouble conveying my
issue...hopefully someone knows what i mean....i'd just like some
direction to save trouble in the long run, since i feel like there's
got to be a better way...
Confused!
Thanks,
JJ

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.
Thanks in advance!

Some queries take a long time to complete.
Setup is:
- SQL Express SP2
- Windows Vista Business
- 2 GB RAM
- Core 2 Duo processor
- Connecting to (local) server with SQL Authentication
- only 1 Instance of MSSQLSERVER
Simple queries (SELECT * FROM TableName) wher the table has only a few records. This query may take up to 30 or more to execute. This slowness is consistent to certain tables. Other much larger tables run queries fine.
If a different computer logs in to the same server, queries provide instantaneous results.

I opened up a new project using Visual Basic Express, and selected the SQL object to start creating a database. Well I finished putting all of my tables together and started making the queries but for some reason I can't save them like when I finished making the tables. When I finished making the tables I could just click the disk icon and name the table and it would appear in a drill down menu on the left. However when I do that with the queries it just says it's saving in the lower left corner but it doesn't do anything?
I am new to VB & SQL so any help is appreciated. Thank you.

Hi,
I'm trying to learn some VB programming with the VB 2005 Express Absolute Beginner Series video tutorials (which I think is great) and have come across a problem that I can't solve.
When I follow the instructions in Lesson 9 (Databinding Data to User Interface Controls) my application will display the data from the database correctly and I can edit it (and as long as the debugger is running the data remains changed). However, the changes won't propagate back to the database. I don't get any error messages but after I edit the data, save (with the save button on the BindingNavigator toolbar), and end debugging the data in my database remains unchanged. When I use a MessageBox to show how many rows where edited/updated in the
Me.myTableTableAdapter.Update(Me.myDatabaseDataSet.myTable)
I get the correct number back. I'm sure the problem is not due to coding errors since I've also tried running the accompanying Lesson 9 project file that can be downloaded from MSDN and the problem persists.
I'm using Windows XP SP2, SQL Server 2005 Express Edition and VB 2005 Express Edition. I've tried installing SQL Server 2005 Express with a number of different settings, including default settings, but it doesn't make any difference.
Would greatly appreciate any feedback on this as I'm keen to resolve this problem so I can get on with the next tutorial lesson.
Thanks,
Ieyasu

This problem only occurs after deployment, not when debugging. In the table I am having a problem with I have an ID field designated as the primary key with the identity increment set to 1 and the identity seed set to 1. There is no data in the table when deployed. I can add records to the datagridview control but when I try updating the dataset I get this error indicating that the ID field already has a value of 1 present. If I close the application and re-start it, the exception no longer occurrs when I update the dataset. I am including the code to update the tables incase something is wrong there. Any suggestions?
Private Sub UpdateMemberTable()
Me.Validate()
Me.TblMembersBindingSource.EndEdit()
Me.TblMembersTableAdapter.Update(Me.ChurchFamilyDataSet.tblMembers)
Me.TblMemberDependentsBindingSource.EndEdit()
Me.TblMemberDependentsTableAdapter.Update(Me.ChurchFamilyDataSet.tblMemberDependents)
Me.TblMemberContributionsBindingSource.EndEdit()

When I installed VS 2005, it installed the default version of SQL Server 2005 Express that ships with Visual Studio 2005 installer media.
How can apply SQL Server 2005 Express SP1 to update this existing instance?
Currently, if I run this query:
SELECT @@version
I get the following:
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.1399.06 (Intel X86) Oct 14 2005 00:33:37 Copyright (c) 1988-2005 Microsoft Corporation Express Edition on Windows NT 5.1 (Build 2600: Service Pack 2)
After applying SP1, I should get 9.00.2047.00.
Should I just go to this link and download & install the SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP1:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/sql/download/

Read rows of data
Delete rows of data
Close and dispose of the connection
I found some code examples out there, but nothing current and specific to VB2008 and MS SQL SD (or CE). If you could point me to sample code that covers this for the 2008 versions of VB and SQL that would be great!

Hi all,
In the past if we wanted to provide an application with simple (multi-user) database facilities, we would use an Access mdb database which we could basically xcopy deploy to the client. Share the folder across the network and apart from the limitations of mdb databases it would work !!!
With all the advancements in databases ! we have moved on to SQL Express - touted as the thing to use and the replacement for MSDE and MDB databases. But hang on a minute !! It doesn't work like that ! You can't deploy Express like we used to with MDB databases - the default Express database doesn't allow multi-access ?? and if you can't xcopy deploy the Express database. The 'user Instance' thing is useless - basically every user gets their own copy of the database !!! How many developers asked Microsoft for that one!! It's crazy!!
We just need to copy our exe files and the mdf file share across a workgroup and bingo network version of our software - it's not brain surgery - Is it! We don't need mountains of security - we need (FIRST OF ALL) easy deployment.
Please tell me I've got it wrong and you can deploy a SQL Express based application without jumping thru hoops ????

Steve

I am moving an application from MSDE to SQL Server Express. I have having difficulty finding a way to use a simple passsword for the SQL Login. SQL Server 2005 allows this

Hi all,I've just installed Express on my Vista notebook and I'm having a few problems.Maybe this is just a conceptual problem on my side but I expected to see a server process (in other versions of SQL server I've used there has been an icon in the server tray of the taskbar).When I open "Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express" I also expected to see a database instance running locally I can connect to (from other research this instance appears to be called SQLEXPRESS). There isn't one.
If I select server type "database engine" on the "connect to server" dialog there are no instances displayed in the "Server Name" field. "Browsing for others" shows nothing under "local servers" which doesn't seem right to me.If I change "server type" to "SQL SERVER COMPACT EDITION" (which doesn't seem right either as I thought "compact edition" was something else) I can have an option to create a database file
Additional information:
I downloaded SQL server express today from this url:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/sql/download/. I downloaded the advanced services toolkit edition as I thought I may was well have all the bells and whistles to play around with.Any ideas?thanksJoel

I am running simple queries against test SQL Express installation and they take a very long time to return data. I have two SQL Express instances installed on colleagues' machines to which I connect for my testing and both exhibit the same problem. The setup is Windows XP SP 2 with 2 GB RAM and 3.6 GHz CPU. I am querying a table with around 7000 records and my query is simply SELECT TOP 1000 * FROM MyTable. It takes over 10 seconds to return the recordset!
I have done the research and found posts, which talk about AUTO_CLOSE option, indexes, query execution plan, etc. I have done everything those posts recommend, but performance is still terrible. All the instances have SQL 2005 SP2 applied.
I also found that the query runs fast locally on each SQL Express instance, the problem seem to happen when I am trying to pull the data over the network.
I am really not sure what else to look for.
Thank you,
Michael
