Solution 1

Verify that you have closed all the connection after the completion of the operation on database(Connection.Close()). I suspect that you have too many connection that needs to be closed.

Almost all the connections i closed...

Thanks7872 30-Apr-13 8:33am

Close each and every connection.Recheck your code.Default value of max pool size is 100 and min pool size is 0.Have a look at this article to better understand the concept.

can't we incrase the default size of connection pool?

connectionString="Server=XXX;Database=XXX;User Id=XXX;password=XXX;connection timeout=0;Max Pool Size = 100;Pooling = True"

Solution 2

Hi,

You can even extend timeout value for specific function in cs file also.

SqlCommandObject.CommandTimeout = 500000;

It might work out for you.

You can do it in app.config file, but it wont reflect in your application i believe

Solution 3

Profile the SQL Server while executing this query ..after that apply the recommendations about indexes and statistics..It seems that query is taking too long to execute..increasing command timeout could be a temporary solution but you need to fix the query for performance issues..
