I have SQL Server 7.0 and I am not able to kill one of the SPID's who is running a SELECT Statement and showing as sleeping.
When I saw in the current activity in EM I see the STATUS as sleeping
COMMAND as SELECT, APPLICATION as Microsoft Transaction server, WAITTIME as 7877 and WAITTYPE as EXCHANGE and CPU 10074
Thanks in advance.
Dear, Our ASP.NET scripts send SQL statements (as inline SQL or SP) to process the requested job. After the job execution, the process ID stays in the server and waits for next command with sleeping status.Since this process does not go away, next job adds another process and eventually, the server is overloaded with these processes and dies. How can I kill this sleeping processes?Regards,Echo

I tried to make a stored procedure to kill them but itate all the power of the server, (all users yelled at me at the sametime :o) )Is this length of time normal for killing these processes?ThanksJeff

I have processes running on the server that show a status of "sleeping" from sp_who and sysprocesses, however they are still running. I run sp_who over and over again and only occasionally the process status shows running, and then switches back to "sleeping" or "defwakeup". I know what all the statuses mean, I just don't know why a running process would ever show as "sleeping". The processes take a very very long time to run as well.
Thanks in advance,

Hi guys,
I may be asking a foolish question but I really need an answer for it.. We have our centralized servere where SQL Server 2005 is installed.... Whenever open the management studio from our desktops, execute some queries (It may be any simple query such as select * from) I find the status of that process 'sleeping'...untill we close the studio or in other words untill that process is killed..
I find the status by Management -> Activity monitor...
Please help me with it...
Has there been anything wrong while setting up Sql Server ?
Please help me ...
Thank you so much...

Hi all,
We have a web application with multiple users connecting to SQL Server 2005 database.
Once the users start using the system, I could see in the Process Info from the activity monitor with a several process with status as sleeping and command as Awaiting Command.
I have few questions regarding this for which simple answers would help me ( I searched and couldnt understand from the pages that explained the process information )
My questions are,
1. Does the processes with status sleeping and command as Awaiting Command are needed for the application even after the operations specific to them are complete?
2. Does these process affect the performance ?
3. Does killing these process would affect the application connectivity ?
4. Why do we get several process with status sleeping and command as Awaiting Command? Is this because of the front end programming errors ?
5. What should we do to avoid the increasing number of process with status sleeping and command as Awaiting Command?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

I'm trying to kill a bunch of processes in SQL 6.5 and I can't. I'm running the only machine with SQL tools installed on it (the server) and it won't let me kill them. I try the GUI screens and the Kill statement in ISQL_w. Is there any way around this?
I've stopped the SQL Server and rebooted the NT Server. Is there anyway I can get rid of these processes. They are locking some tables and keeping me from inserting data within my code. Very frustrating.
Thanks
Hi all,
I have SQL Server 7.0 with SP2 on it and I am not able to kill one of the SPID's who is running a SELECT Statement.
When I saw in the current activity in EM I see the STATUS as ROLLBACK, COMMAND as SELECT, APPLICATION as MS SQLEM-DATATOOLS, WAITTIME as 5375 and WAITTYPE as CXPACKET..
I also tried to reboot the machine of that particular SPID , but it still shows up in the Enterprise Manager.
Can anyone tell me how to kill this process and how to get around this Problem
Any Ideas,
Thanks in Advance

Hi!
After I killed maintenance process (57) in the current activity window and run ‘kill 57 with statusonly’ I got message: ‘SPID 57: Estimated rollback completion: 100%. Estimated time remaining: 0 sec.’
When I reopened current activity window I still see that SPID 57 is runable.
Then I run select*from
sysprocesses where SPID = 57
It also reports that process status is runable.
What is the problem?
How can I remove (and should I) this record from masterdb.
Thank you,
Natalia
Hi Peepz,
Im just a newbie using SQL Server anyway i noticed in my present company that most of the process/Stored Procedure that are being executed or connection that was being made by the application is not being terminated or disconnected. they use very large IO and CPU resources making the server slow or sometimes hang.(well that was my diagnostics). i try to kill them one by one but it seems endless process is redundant. to cut my problem short im thinking of having an application that would automatically kill all this unwanted process but ofcourse i should specify the parameter which process to kill. is this possible? i saw the KILL statement in the online books but it seems uncomplete with what i wanted to accomplish.
Thanks all

Hi,
Could anyone tell me why I am not able to kill processes even with kill spid. I had scheduled some db backups through DB Maintenance. All of them are running for days together when I tried to kill them spid. It still does not get killed. Can anyone tell me why
Hi,
I'm having a problem killing a process in SQL 7.0. I have a spid that has been around for a couple of weeks! I try to remove that process by right clicking and selecting 'Kill Process' but nothing happens. The process originated when I deleted large amounts of data from a logging table. NOw I can not remove the process. I'm concerned that this might indicate the database is getting corrupted.
Any suggestions?
Thanks in Advance
I executed xp_cmdshell command.
More than 24 hours this process still running.
I tried killing this process with enterprise manager and query analyser, both
gave me a message saying its successfully killed. But when i do a sp_who,
the process still their executing.
how can I kill this process that's running xp_cmdshell
thanks

Hi all,
View 7 Replies View RelatedHi!
I have a small problem , but it's still a problem.
I have a SQL Server Agent job that runs a .cmd file. This CMD is logged to a textfile.
This process is locked, waiting for me to type a password, but I have nowhere to type that pass.
What I want to do is kill the process that i locking the logfile, because since the logfile is locked, the job cannot be started again (and it's a scheduled job).
The jobs status is 'Not Running'.
I have solved the problem by making the cmd write to another logfile, so the schedule will work, but the file is still locked, and I don't want to restart the server since it's a productionserver.
How to I find the process that is initialized from SQL Agent, and kill it?
Thanks!

I have a query to refer to the data source in as400 with ODBC 'iSeries Access for Windows ODBC data source' and a linked server with 'oledb for ODBC driver' in SQL2005 (9.0.2047)
Now we got 2 problems,
1. When we refer to the view with openquery e.g select * from openquery (abc, 'select * from dates')
This query continue to run without ending. In Activity monitor, we found that it is waiting for resource ole db
2. Since the process continue to run without ending, I kill the process in activity monitor or by command 'kill'. It shows the status 'KILLED/ROLLBACK' and it returns 'SPID 197: transaction rollback in progress. Estimated rollback completion: 0%. Estimated time remaining: 0 seconds.' in 'kill 197 with STATUSONLY'
In problem 1, I found some ppl encountered the same problem (waiting for resource oledb) with openquery to different data source e.g. vfp, oracle.
In problem 2, we can't restart the sql server for clear the unkillable process
Kindly advise. Thanks in advance.
If an MS SQL 2005 Connection is sleeping in the activity monitor, does it mean it's not closed? I'm pretty sure it's closed, just want to confirm. Lately, our DB server got hammered with requests and it reached max-pool size (we implemented caching after that).
View 3 Replies View RelatedHi,
I have written an application in VB6 connecting to a SQL Server 2000 database using ADO. This app is running on the same computer as SQL Server.
What I am seeing now is that each day 2-3 new connections are being created by SQL and these connections have a "sleeping" status and "AWAITING COMMAND" command. Also, when double-clicking a
connection, it's last TSQL statement is empty... This way, connections are piling up.
Does anyone have an idea why this is happening and what I can do to avoid this ? Also, how can I determine what is causing this ?
Many thanks,
Jurgen Sanders
A developer came over and asked me a couple of things
1. Can C# not cleanup SPIDs and just open new ones lieing around
2. Do a large number of spids, even if they are sleeping, cause performance issues?
3. What's the Max # of spids sql server can handle?
BOL ain't too helpful right now
Hi, just a quick problem/question. Why do processes in the middle of the package goto sleep? Is there a method of making them go?

We just installed SQL service pack 4. I am now finding that when doing a sp_who2 active, there are a lot of connections that are blocked by itself. The common factor is they all have a status of 'sleeping'. The strange thing is that even though it shows the connection is blocked, it is in fact not and will still return results. Below is a snapshot of a portion of what the sp_who2 active returns:
SPID Status Login HostName BlkBy DBName
53 sleeping sa TRACKER 53 dbABC
58 sleeping sa TRACKER 58 dbCDE
64 sleeping sa TRACKER 64 dbSTA
66 RUNNABLE User12 PC24 . master
70 sleeping User5 ANALYSIS 70 dbBML
74 sleeping sa TRACKER 74 dbCDE
76 sleeping sa TRACKER 76 dbPTS
83 sleeping User5 ANALYSIS 83 dbANA
86 DORMANT User11 CPTDB . NULL
Has anyone seen this? Is it related to the installation of service pack 4? (We have installed the services pack on many other SQL servers, but have not come accross this before.

I am using SQL Server 2000. In Enterprise Mgr, under Management/CurrentActivity, I see a list SPIDs.I have a multi-tiered .NET web app that uses ADO.NET to connect to thedatabase. Each time a Stored Proc is called, a new connection is opened, thedata retreieved, and the connection closed and set to Nothing (in VB.NET).Yet, I see several (15 or so) SPIDs for the user ID that the web app uses toconnect to the database.The database is local and private, so I know all connections are from me.What does Status=SLEEPING Command=Waiting Command mean?What will happen when we get 1000's users on the web app?Is SQL doing some kind of connection pooling?

I downloaded visual express for web development with sql express. Running fine. Like SQL so much, decided to pop for the Developer package. I don't know what I was thinking, maybe I was going to pay for popcorn for billy g & family in the home theatre that night...but I digress.
After much consternation and a 4:00 a.m. adventure, I managed to get rid of SQL Express and install the developer edition. Now were fine. Even ran the aspnet_regsql and set up the aspnetdb database.
I'm thinking, back to development here.
I select APP_DATE and if I try to add the ASPNETDB.mdf file I get the application is being used by another process. Please close all applications that might access this file and try again. So, I then try to create a new database file. I get this error:
Connections to SQL Server Files ( *.mdf) require the SQL Server Express 2005 to function properly.
I can create a connection to the aspnetdb database in the database connections. However, as I work with some of the new ASP NET Membership/Role code, I find it doesn't work.
Will most code work if the ASPNETDB.mdf is not set up int he APP_DATA section?
Come on Microsoft, I can't be the only shoe-string developer that is going to try this.
Has anyone done this and resolved how to get these two to play along.
If I upgrade to Visual Studio, will I still be straddled with SQLExpress.
Can I run SQLExpress side by side with SQL Developer addition?
During our DR drill we found that the same code which used to run perfectly fine on our Primary Data Centre is running very slow on Disaster Recovery DB Server and there are Lot's of open transaction with sleeping status and waittype as 'AWAITING COMMAND'.CPU, Memory and disk utilization are good. The ping reply between the app server and the DB server is well within the limit's even blocking is not their, also nothing is reported in the error logs. We are using SQL server 2014 STD 64 BIT on Windows Server 2012.
