I have a website that has been running for over 1 year now that has never had these issues.
Its running MS SQL Server 2005 Express Edition and IIS6 ASP 3 coded. All running from one server.
I am starting to randomly get the following errors:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '80004005'
Timeout expired
and also
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '80004005'
[DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
It only happens sometimes. When it occures, I can refresh the page and usually it would be ok again.
I am getting a lot of visitors to the website, around 7k uniques per day so I am guessing it is to do with the high demand and concurrent connections to the database.
Anyone have any ideas how to solve this issue.
Thanks!
