SQL2005 error

  • Hi,

     

    I have a SQL 2005 server that has SP1 installed and it has developed an error:

    "Failed to initialize the Common Language Runtime (CLR) v2.0.50727 due to memory pressure. Please restart SQL server in Address Windowing Extensions (AWE) mode to use CLR integration features."

    There does seem to any pressure on the memory, it has 1.5gb installed and even at peak usage it has 250mb available. Any ideas as to what this error could be.

     

    Thanks

    Andy

  • The OS and/or other applications on the server are using too much memory. SQL Server can not get enough memory to run CLR.

    Firt of all, you need more memory. I wouldn't run SQL Server with less than 3 GB of RAM even on a dare.

    Secondly, set a minimum amount of RAM for your server to reserve. With 1.5 GB, reserve 1 GB for SQL Server.
