Max connection for database

  • Hi,

    Previously the max connections is set to 0 (unlimited). I have changed it to 1 and restarted the server.

    After connecting to the server using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio, when i try to go to properties of the server, it is throwing me an error

    TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio

    ------------------------------

    Cannot show requested dialog.

    ------------------------------

    ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

    Cannot show requested dialog. (SqlMgmt)

    ------------------------------

    Failed to retrieve data for this request. (SqlManagerUI)

    For help, click: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?ProdName=Microsoft+SQL+Server&LinkId=20476

    ------------------------------

    Failed to connect to server ABCD100. (Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo)

    ------------------------------

    A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the login process. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - An established connection was aborted by the software in your host machine.) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 10053)

    For help, click: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?ProdName=Microsoft+SQL+Server&EvtSrc=MSSQLServer&EvtID=10053&LinkId=20476

    I would appreciate any advice.

  • Hi,

    Problem is solved from the solution from this link (http://social.msdn.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/sqldatabaseengine/thread/0a58d127-f532-44f1-8507-f9131228b5c1)

    Running this script in the query browser resets the max connection to 0.

    EXEC sys.sp_configure N'show advanced options', N'1' RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE

    GO

    EXEC sys.sp_configure N'user connections', N'0'

    GO

    RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE

    GO

    EXEC sys.sp_configure N'show advanced options', N'0' RECONFIGURE WITH OVERRIDE

    GO

  • Nice to know you solved your own problem, thanks for posting your solution 🙂
