Trigger locking table, preventing updates.

  • I have a trigger on a table that checks for an updated timestamp and if it exists it write that record into another database for reporting. However, this trigger recently has started locking the table so that the updates can not occur in the application. I have to turn the trigger off in order for the application to work. Any recommendations would be helpful.

    USE [ProjectServerQA]

    GO

    /****** Object: Trigger [dbo].[UPDATE_PS_USAGE_TRG] Script Date: 07/09/2009 15:20:16 ******/

    SET ANSI_NULLS ON

    GO

    SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON

    GO

    ALTER TRIGGER [dbo].[UPDATE_PS_USAGE_TRG] ON [dbo].[MSP_WEB_RESOURCES]

    AFTER UPDATE

    AS

    DECLARE @insertcount int

    SELECT @insertcount = COUNT(*) FROM INSERTED

    IF @insertcount > 0

    BEGIN

    insert into ealogs.dbo.application_hit_info(app_name, time_stamp, session_id, personid, remote_user, logon_user, path_info, activity)

    select distinct 'ProjectServer', getdate(), INSERTED.wres_nt_account, CORPORATEDIRECTORY.dbo.PERSON.PERSONID,INSERTED.wres_email, INSERTED.res_name, INSERTED.wres_last_connect, 'Sync'

    from INSERTED (NOLOCK), msp_web_resources m with (NOLOCK), CORPORATEDIRECTORY.dbo.PERSON (NOLOCK)

    where corporatedirectory.dbo.person.email = INSERTED.wres_email collate SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS

    and m.res_name not like '%Deleted%'

    and m.wres_email != 'NULL'

    and m.wres_email != ''

    END

    IF @@ERROR != 0

    ROLLBACK TRAN

  • My first thought is you have something blocking this process, while this is being held up check to see if there are any proocesses being blocked or blocking this. I'm willing to bet there is..

  • I was watching it in my activity monitor but I did not see something trying to take an exclusive lock. I was also watching this table:

    SELECT *

    FROM sys.dm_tran_locks
