Question

SqlDataSource Timeout??

Asked by: dkim18

Hi,

I have an asp.net web app using the sql server 2005.
From the VS 2005, I didn't have any problems.

Today, I deployed the web app to the webserver (SQL Server 2005 is on another server).
I logined to theweb app ok and were able to browse different pages OK for a while.
After that I get this timeout error.

I used a lot of SQLdatasource.  I thought it automatically close the sql connection.
Also why didn't I have the same problem from the VS2005??
Thanks


The timeout period elapsed prior to obtaining a connection from the pool.Question:
I am getting this error message:

Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to obtaining a connection from the pool. This may have occurred because all pooled connections were in use and max pool size was reached.


Stack Trace:


[InvalidOperationException: Timeout expired.  The timeout period elapsed prior to obtaining a connection from the pool.  This may have occurred because all pooled connections were in use and max pool size was reached.]

Hi dkim

couple of tips

1) List the connection string (you may disclose your servernames) and port specification
2) What user is connecting to the database?
3) "I used a lot of datasource" - what do you mean? Do you use a system dsn?
4) What does your sql server say? See in the server log - do you get any access denied messages?

 

by: dhansmaniPosted on 2009-11-04 at 04:57:23ID: 25738794

set Timeout for sqlconnection


sqlconnection conn = new sqlconnection();
conn.ConnectionTimeout = 1000;

The time (in seconds) to wait for a connection to open. The default value
is 15 seconds.

1) List the connection string (you may disclose your servernames) and port specification
<add name="xxx" connectionstring="Data Source=myservername;Initial Catalog=myDB;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=xxx;Password=xxx" providerName="System.Data.sqlClient" />


2) What user is connecting to the database? SQL User I created.

3) "I used a lot of datasource" - what do you mean? Do you use a system dsn?
I meant I created SqlDataSources in the aspx page.
When I manually created in the behind code page, I made sure I closed all the SQL connections.
4) What does your sql server say? See in the server log - do you get any access denied messages?
Nothing on the log.

It's odd that everything runs smooth from Visual Studio.



I have the following and changed to 1000 from 360.
<forms name=MyAppName timeout="360">
<forms name=MyAppName timeout="1000">

I will let you know if that would work.


Also I have formated my date field to mm/dd/yyyy and shows correctly from the VS but from the production server, it shows mm/dd/yyyy hh:mm:sss.
That's odd! Why is it showing time?

 

by: dhansmaniPosted on 2009-11-04 at 07:05:43ID: 25740013

change this...

<add name="xxx" connectionstring="Data Source=myservername;Initial Catalog=myDB;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=xxx;Password=xxx Time Out=10000" providerName="System.Data.sqlClient"  />
