ODBC timeout error

  • We have an app running on SQL 2000 SP4/ Win2003SP2 that once in a while gets microsoft odbc sql server driver timeout expired. In all of my Internet searches I have really found nothing. Anyone with any help would be appreciated.

  • Are you using link servers?

  • No, we are not using any linked servers.

  • What kind of application?

    Do you use ADO? If so

    Just a thought look att

    Dim conn As New ADODB.Connection

    Dim cmd As New ADODB.Command

    conn.ConnectionTimeout = value

    and conn.CommandTimeout = value

  • Have you identified what query is run on the server when the client timeout occurs? Adding the Attention eventclass to a profiler trace can help with that.

    This blog entry that helped me out when I was getting reports of timeout errors: http://blogs.msdn.com/khen1234/archive/2005/10/20/483015.aspx%5B/url%5D
