Understanding SQL Profiler

  • I am trying to research an issue with an application timing out when it tries to connect to a SQL database. I decided to run profiler (I am no expert). I am getting results of "Lock:Timeout" for the database. The duration column is showing "0". I was thinking the timeout would occur after a period of time waiting. I am also logging Deadlocks... but none have occurred. Can anyone shed light on this for me. Thank you in advance.

  • You can start from posting an actual error message you are getting from application.

  • Set up the profiler to catch events(login, tsql, sp et al) created by the application user. Track each of the activity of the user & determine at what step the timeout occurs. It need not be at the database level, sometimes connection strings have a time limit & if your query runs longer, the timeout error occurs
