      Try posting in the SQL forum. btw, could be an incorrect connection string.

        The lounge isn't for programming questions. Likely your db-query and/or processing of it is taking too long.

          This might not be a programming question, so I'll try to help a little. However, it would be better if it were in the database forum. The message you have got is fairly generic for a million and one database issues and does not necessary mean that you have a timeout despite the words in the message. I get the message a lot. Often it is intermittent and can be got around by re-requesting the transaction? If that is the case in your situation, I'm afraid it is one of the "tough - that's life, live with it" problems. If the same transaction always gives the problem then it might be your SQL that is at fault - too complex query, bad indexing (i.e. wrong items being indexed), trying to return too many rows / columns, no caching etc etc - in which case it should be posted on the database forum.

            Doesn't necessary mean that, but often does.

            So why the question mark? You unsure?

            No, it ain't; and if you encounter it, you pay me for the solution. I've seen and solved it; sometimes it is the query, sometimes it is the processing of the results; and before you even dare to make an offer, make it a fakkin' sweet one, since I aint tempted easily, especially not after a lecture of someone who is swimming in sand. Get back to your basket, I'm in a foul mood.
