SyncOrchestrator.Synchronize network error? RRS feed

    Hello everyone!

    I've got a strange problem - sometimes I get the following error messages while synching:

    System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: A transport-level error has occured when receiving results from the server. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - The semaphore timeout period has expired.)
    System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: A transport-level error has occured when receiving results from the server. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - The specified network name is no longer available.)

    The synchronization is working via VPN - do I need to increase the timeout? Where can I do that?
    Has anyone got experience with this kind of problem?

    Thanks a lot in advance!
    Tim.

    You might want to try to start sync without using VPN and see if you still have this issue. As previous post said, this may be network issue and is not necessarily related to SyncFX.

     

    Thanks,

    the error you're getting is not necessarily related to Sync Framework or Sql Server but maybe due to flaky connection. so you might want to check network related issues that you could possibly tweak.

    having said that, you may also want to increase the command timeout. If you're using SqlSyncProvider, it has a property CommandTimeout that you can set.

    Hi JuneT,

    thanks for your answer! The timeout is set to 90 seconds for the sqlsyncprovider and I get these error messages after about 5 or 6 seconds.
    The interesting stuff is that I don't get these exceptions if I am using a slow connection... That's really strange... Any ideas???

    A big thanks again,
    Tim.
