Insufficient system memory to run this query

  • I am getting the error message in the subject intermittantly. I was wondering if anyone else has seen this? I am running Windows 2000 Server and SQL 2000 SP1 with 1gB of RAM.

    Upon searching around on the net I saw that it could be that the procedure cache is set too low. I cannot find a way to change this in SQL 2000. Anyone know of a way to do this? If it is not possible any other ideas would be greatly appreciated. I am going out of my mind trying to troubleshoot this.

    Thanks...

  • SQL has use of the entire 1G? 1G aint as much as it seems like!

  • Yeah, SQL is the only thing that is installed on it.

    I think it might be with Cold Fusion. On my web server I had Cold Fusion to maintain the database connections. I unchecked this on all of my ODBC connections, and it hasn't crashed yet.

    I am keeping my fingers crossed.

    Thanks!!!

  • Be sure it is a "good query" (no cross joins, etc). If you are truly building such a huge query, you may run out of resources.
