Need some help with the error.

  • I received this error at 3:10 AM last night "Dispatch : Timeout during data retrieval due to busy server -- retry the operation (EtnPrdAP1) ARERR - 93" which made the DB inaccessible to users. I have no idea what this error is. I looked at the log file and alert through the monitoring tool but didn't see anything. Trace was running at that time as well but didn't see any job, any query which could have caused it. DB became inaccessible to users so a co-worker ended up restarting the App server (ARS Server) which resolved the issue. It happened couple of times already but can't figure out what's causing it.

    Things I have already checked.

    SQL Server logs.

    Alerts through monitoring tool

    Trace that I was running.

    What else can be done?

  • It sounds like your app may have a connection leak (same symptoms as what we have at work but we can't change it... 3rd party hairball code). Less likely but still possible, it may have a memory leak. I could be wrong but this doesn't sound like it has anything at all to do with the DB or DB Server itself. Such things can be pretty tough to find in the code.

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
