    Here's a script I use to shrink the t-logs manually if they stretch too big due to failed backups or something:

    Have you thought about the idea that it might be auto-disabled / enabled via a job?

    I think it's time to call the vendor. It might be an issue with the application itself, especially if they never upgraded it to use SQL 2008, and we can't...

  • RE: Application is unable to connect to the database.

    It occurs to me that I've been assuming your application is an in-house developed app. Is that correct or is this a third party app you're using?

    If the former, you...

  • RE: Application is unable to connect to the database.

    Check the server Event Viewer logs (especially Security) for around that time frame. What do they say?

    The connection string would be helpful. Maybe a screenshot of the error as well.
