Transact SQL :: Linked Server Return Message Query Timeout
Jul 22, 2015
Error below was returned from an agent job:
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI11" for linked server returned message "Query timeout expired". [SQLSTATE 01000]
A linked Server was set up against a remote database to backup a database and it runs perfectly well when executed directly against the remote server but returns the above error when set up through Sql Server Agent. Permissions are good as the step returns success. I reset the query timeout property to zero but error persist. What else should I be looking at to make this work?

Hello,
I am researching alternatives to a stored procedure that uses a linked server query that my ASP page uses to retrieve records to the page.
Should I:
Use replication (Data is constantly updated, so a snapshot won't do. Merge replication?)
Break up the stored procedure into subqueries?
Use a view on the remote server instead of the actual tables?
I am trying to reduce the amount of table scans, what is the best way to do this?
Here is the stored procedure I am trying to tune:
(@startDate and @endDate are parameters passed from the web page):
CREATE PROCEDURE dbo.spELRMCcardXtionByDate @dcid nvarchar(255), @startDate datetime, @endDate datetime
AS
SELECT Store.[Str#], Store.[Dcid#], E.card_number, E.program_number
, E.start_date, E.end_date, E.card_number, E.event_number
, E.status, E.budget, E.scheduled_date, P.tx_time, P.purchase_amount
, L.merchant_name
FROM (Store INNER JOIN Event E ON Store.[DemoID#] = E.event_number)
LEFT JOIN (Location L RIGHT JOIN POS_TX P ON L.location_number = P.location_number)
ON E.event_number = P.event_number
WHERE (((Store.[Dcid#])= @dcid)) AND E.scheduled_date BETWEEN @startDate AND @endDate
ORDER BY Store.[Str#]
GO
Any suggestions on my sp or anything else that can implement would be greatly appreciated.
TIA,

Hello can some one explain this to me and give me some advice. I have sqlserver1 and sqlserver2 I have a linked server set up [ipaddress] on both servers. When I pass a variable to the stored proc or the query it takes up to 20 seconds to return 1 row but if I replace my varibles like email='sqlboy@coxnet' and firstname='ted' and lastname='clien' it returns the one row im looking for in about 2 seconds but if I pass email =@email ,fname=@fname,lname=@lname I get the 20 second thing. The query is a stored proc being called from an asp app. I get the same results when I run this in query analyzer.
Here is the query.
DECLARE @email VARCHAR(75),@fname VARCHAR(50),@lname VARCHAR(100)
IF EXISTS (SELECT TOP 1 email
FROM [ipaddress].{database}.dbo.{tablename}--server1
WHERE email = @email )
BEGIN
set nocount on
SELECT TOP 1 email,
FIRSTNAME,
MIDDLENAME,
LASTNAME,
TITLE,
COMPANYNAME,
ADDRESS1,
ADDRESS2,
CITY,
STATE,
ZIP,
COUNTRY
FROM [ipaddress].{database}.dbo.{tablename} --server2
WHERE email in(SELECT EMAIL
FROM [ipaddress].{database}.dbo.{tablename} where email=@email--server1)
AND RecordStatusID ='1' and FirstName=@fname and LastName=@lname
END
ELSE
IF EXISTS (SELECT top 1 email,
FIRSTNAME,
MIDDLEINITIAL,
LASTNAME,
TITLE,
COMPANYNAME,
ADDRESS1,
ADDRESS2,
CITY,
STATE,
ZIP,
COUNTRY
FROM {databases}.dbo.attendees--server1
WHERE email =@email and FirstName=@fname and LastName=@lname)
BEGIN
SELECT TOP 1 email,
firstname,
MIDDLEINITIAL AS MIDDLENAME,
lastname,
title,
companyname,
address1,
address2,
city,
state,
zip,
country
FROM {database}.dbo.attendees --server1
WHERE email in (SELECT DISTINCT email
FROM server1.dbo.ebooksrequests--server1
where email=@email) and email=@email and FirstName=@fname and LastName=@lname
SET NOCOUNT OFF
END

Hi All,
I have the same question and error that Chopaka is getting:
"I have a SQL 2005 job that calls a stored proc. The job step returns the message "Query timeout expired....Message 7412...The step succeeded." The proc never actually ever did anything due to the query timeout, and the job continued on to other steps. I'm going to address the timeout issue eventually, but first I'd like to trap the timeout problem and force the job to end.
It appears that the query timeout isn't really an error, just a message. I've tried TRY-CATCH in the SP but the situation isn't caught, again probably due to the interpretation that it isn't an error."
I have reduced the "Remote Query time out" to 1 sec, in order to catch the error and to prevent the job from running, but the error is not caught.
Is there a way to catch this in the SQL or in the job step to prevent the job from continuing?
This is the script that I'm using without any luck
BEGIN TRY
BEGIN Transaction
Create table #tmpSummaryTable
(
)
insert into #tmpSummaryTable
select * from CDRServer01.iXtemp.dbo.gx_tbFTRSummary_test
COMMIT Transaction
END TRY
BEGIN CATCH
DECLARE @err int
SELECT @err = @@error
PRINT '@@error: ' + ltrim(str(@err))
SELECT ERROR_NUMBER() ERNumber,
ERROR_MESSAGE() Error_Message
ROLLBACK
Return
END CATCH

What I would like to do is to have a TSQL Select return the number of records in the Result as if TOP (n) had not been used. Example:I have a table called Orders containing more than 1.000 records with OrderDate = '2015/07/21' and my client application has a threshold for returning records at 100 and therefore the TSQL would look like
SELECT TOP (100) * FROM Orders Where OrderDate = '2015/07/21' ORDER by OrderTime Desc
Now I would like to "tell" the client that only 100 of 1.000 records are shown in the client application grid. Is there a way to return a value indicating that if TOP (100) had not been used the resultset would have been 1.000. I know I could create the same TSQL using COUNT() (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM Orders Where OrderDate = '2015/07/21' ORDER by OrderTime Desc) and return that in a variable in the SELECT statement or even creating the COUNT() as a subquery and return it as a column, but I would like to avoid running multiple TSQL's. Since SQL Server already needs to select the entire recordset and sort it (ORDER BY) and return only the first 100 the total number of records in the initial snapshot must somehow be available.

I don't know why this is so difficult. What I want to do is take a table name as a parameter to build a query and get an integer value from the result of the query. But from all of the research I have been doing, Dynamic SQL is bad in SQL server because of SQL Injections. But my users are not going to be supplying the table names.
Things I have learned:
- SQL Functions cannot use Exec to execute query strings.
- SQL Functions can return a concatenated string that could be used by a stored procedure to Exec the query string.
So how can I write a stored procedure that will
1. take a parameter
2. Pass the parameter to a function that will return a string
3. Execute that string as SQL
4. Get a return value from that SQL statement
5. Then finally, from a View, how can I pass a parameter to the stored procedure and get the returned value from the stored procedure to be used as a field in the View?
Numbers 3, 4, and 5 are where I am really stuck. I guess I don't know the proper syntax and limitations of SQL Server.

Hello,
I created a linked server in sql server 2005 which links to a AS400 DB. I use ODBC driver.
For some tables, it return all data but for another tables, it only return part of the rows.
How it may happen?
Thanks

I have an Oracle 9i server. To access the data in Oracle, I setup an ODBC connection to it and am able to return data from it using WinSQL (a general ODBC database client). The SQL statement is simply "SELECT * FROM COLOR" and all 133 records returned properly.
I need to copy the data from the Oracle server to SQL Express, therefore I set up linked server (by Microsoft ODBC provider) using the same ODBC connection as described above.
The problem is: only 32 records returned.
May I ask if there is any problem to this linked server setup?
Thanks.

Hi All,
I have a strange problem with one of my Linked server connections. I am connecting from
SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition (9.00.3042.00) to and Oracle 10g database using the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle. The connection works and I am able to select from all the Oracle tables except for 1 table. When selecting from this table I get the following error:
OLE DB provider "MSDAORA" for linked server "DBNAME" returned message "ORA-01476: divisor is equal to zero".
Msg 7330, Level 16, State 2, Line 1
Cannot fetch a row from OLE DB provider "MSDAORA" for linked server "DBNAME".
This probem happens if the table has rows or has no rows (empty table).
I have tried SELECT * and count(*) along with selecting a specific column from the table.
I can use SQL*plus from the system that the SQL database server running on it and select from the table using the same login/password that the linked server uses to rule out a permissions problem.
Any suggestions on what I can try next?
Thanks.

Hi,I used sp_addlinkedserver to link to a remote server through ODBC.When I execute select count(*) from LinkSrv.SI.DBO.SIHeader in SQL QueryAnalyzer. It returns 13705 records. But when I execute select * fromLinkSrv.SI.DBO.SIHeader. It only return 885 records. If I specify somecolumns, select ODCOMP, ODPONO, ODVDCD from LinkSrv.SI.DBO.SIHeader.It returns more records, 1213 records.I guess there is something limit the return storage, but I can notfind it.Any suggestion will be appreciated. Thank you

SET ANSI_NULLS ON

SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON

But I cannot figure out how to 'Call' this stored procedure from a query, passing the needed parameters, and use the return value from the stored procedure in one of the query fields.
Cannot find either column "Event" or the user-defined function or aggregate "Event.DynamicBestTBOI", or the name is ambiguous. use Metadata select Event.DynamicBestTBOI(IntegratedTest1.Event.EventTrackUpdate.SequenceNumber,'EventTrackUpdate')
from IntegratedTest1.Event.EventTrackUpdate

I have two tables that share a common identity row. I need to build a query where data that exists in one table does not contain data in the other table. For example, table 1 has columns of Owner_ID, LastName, FirstName and table 2 has columns Auto_ID, Owner_ID, AutoMake. Both tables are joined by the Owner_ID column. I need a query that provides all owners from table 1 who do not have an entry in table 2.
Thanks in advance,

We have a stored procedure that is creating information in tempdb table and using cursors. It is suppose to produce a report of about 1000 records. If we run the stored procedure as a sql query then it works fine. If we run it using the VB app. it times out with the following message:
[Microsoft][ODBC Sql Server Drive]Timeout expired(#0)
Is there anything I can do to correct this problem?
Thank you,

Hi
here is from BOL
>When a conversation is marked delayed, Service Broker performs the matching process again after a timeout period. Notice that failure to find a matching route is not considered an error.
for example it could happen when there is no route for a service.
the question is - what is this timeout. Is it configurable? on a system wide
basis ?
It will be great if this process is described in more details.
Best regards,
Leonid.

Hi all,
My application is developed using VB6.0 and SQL Server 2000. Frequently the application displays error message, which says 'Timeout Expired - occurred while getting records" when no. of users grows more than 20. We are using processor based licence SQL Server.
Under what are all the scenario, this error may come? Anybody explain me.

sorry for posting a question that has probably been posted hundreds oftimes, but i can't seem to find the answer i need...We're using a SqlServer 7.0 database and recently started getting timeout expirederrors on our views, which i'm assuming is due to the volume ofrecords in our tables. Unfortunately i'm not too experiences w/indexing tables, so my question is:1) how do you determine which fields to index (does it have to be afield w/ no nulls, no duplicates..similar to primary key), and why notindex the primary key2) is it better to index the same field on different tables, or is ita better design to index a different field for each table (ex. do youwant to index the same field that you link the different tables with,or do you want to avoid doing this)3) can somebody explain the concept of creating a clustered index4) once table is indexed, if there are users accessing the linkedtables via Access, do they have to re-link the tables?sorry for the number of questions and what may appear to be simplequestions to most, but again, i'm pretty unfamiliar w/ indexing andwould really appreciate any help...thanks

I need to replicate database from one of LINKED server to another SQL instance on a different server. What will be a best way to achive this ? I'm using MS SQL server 2008 r2
- Should I just take a backup of my current database and restore it (Will this also cover up access to objects for different users, or do I need to write a separate script for it).
OR
-Should I go to TASK > generate scripts and create one... Here I believe I need to additionally take care of access rights, indexes, constraints.

basically, we have two databases, one with fix name, eg. DB1 in all environments, and another is named with prefix based on environment, eg. DB2_DEV, DB2_TEST, that is generated by some managed application.
Then we have queries or view/SPs residing in the first database, eg. DB1 that access database resources from the second database, DB2_***. Both databases are residing in the same SQL instance.
Currently, we have hardcoded the database name in the query but would prefer not to manually rename or write other scripts to update the query with the correct database name when deploying to other environments.
For example:
SELECT * FROM DB2_DEV.dbo.vAccounts
When deploy to TEST, we need to update the query to:
SELECT * FROM DB2_TEST.dbo.vAccounts
So, I looked at Synonyms but it seems it can only create 'alias' for tables or views, and not database.
Hence, last thought is to create self linked server, so I can write my query like below and setup the linked server accordingly.
SELECT * FROM SRCDB.dbo.vAccounts
Any consideration to think of, eg. performance, security, etc?

We have migrated a database (myDb2014) to a SQL Server 2014 instance. We have another on a 2008R2 instance (myDb2008). Both on the same server.
I have setup a linked server to the 2014 instance from the 2008R2 one.
I have a number of sprocs on myDb2008 that call TVFs and sprocs on myDb2014. This worked fine when they were both on the same instance.
Now however, I have an issue where I would have to update all the references in each calling query.
I looked into creating Synonyms but this only works for Tables/Views.
Is there a workaround to querying myDb2014 TVFs/sprocs without having to update each calling query in myDb2008?
