SQL connection error

(0) ShareShare
ReportReport
Posted on by Houry 425

I have 2 Dynamics GP experiencing the same error: "a SQL network connection error occurred and your connections was cleared. This probably occurred because all available connections to the server are in use. Please try again later." They are both on GP2010 and SQL Server 2008R2.  One of the customers has been on GP2010 for about 15 months, and these errors just started randomly occurring a few weeks ago.  The other customer just upgraded from GP10 to GP2010 and moved from a SQL 2005 Express to SQL 2008R2 Standard version.  After they get the error they can log back into GP and continue working, or the error clears up and the connection is reestablished.  The number of connections in SQL server is set to 0 (unlimited).  What could be causing this and how can we resolve it? Thank you.

    Wired, I am getting the same from one of my customers and thought that this might be due to network disconnection, but looks it is not.

    I will invistigate more with this and update back my findings.

    Mohammad, did you find anything regarding this error?  We too have 1 user who is having this issue.

    Any luck figuring this one out, I'm experiencing the same issue.

    Nope... Did lot's of digging on this and even went to our gold partner regarding this issue with no resolution.  For us the problem is intermittent enough that it's not a deal breaker so we've just worked around it.

    I have started to experience this problem with several users after upgrading to GP2013.   All users access GP via Remote Desktop Session.  All servers are WIndows 2008R2 and SQL 2008.  All services are in a VMWare envionment.

    Has anyone found a solution yet?

    Kelly, our problem just seemed to go away.  I can't explain it.  I don't remember anything about what we did that might have addressed the issue.

    Is anyone testing firewall settings on the local computers?
