SQL Browser service unable to process client request

  • Receiving continuous errors that state that the SQL Browser service was unable to process a client request. Sometimes it even locks out use of Management studio and requires a restart to the service.

    New active/passive cluster build: SQL 2008 Std Ed. SP2/Win 2008 R2 Ent Ed. (64bit). SQL Browser logs on as a domain acct/start up type: automatic

    Named instance has appropriate port and firewall is set to ANY

    Checked out this blog:

    http://blogs.msdn.com/sql_protocols/archive/2006/02/27/unable-to-connect-to-a-sql-server-named-instance-on-a-cluster.aspx ,but I wonder if something is going on with the SQL requests sent to sql from the app (HPSIM)??? Lame query possibly? :blink:

  • Hello

    I am seeing the same errors in our Windows Event logs, "The SQLBrowser service was unable to process a client request", but we have not needed to restart SQL Browser.

    There is a Microsoft KB describing your issue. We are looking at applying the fix. It might be worth taking a look at this KB.
