[dba-SQLServer] Timeouts executing views

Fri Feb 1 11:42:34 CST 2008

How do you execute the view? 
Do you type "Select * from view" in a query editor and then press F5? 
Or Object Explorer>Highlight view>context menu>Open View?

ROTFL, I can't.  I execute a view.  It times out.  What more can I tell you?
It does so on any of my machines, I can tell you that.

I am talking about inside of SQL Server 2005 Management Studio.  Beyond that
I don't understand the question.

How are you connecting when using a view?

Paul, forget I said hours.  Most of them in fact run in a minute or two.
Just long enough to cause the timeout.  I simply need to up that timeout.

Thanks,

The difference has nothing to do with the view, but how you're connecting.
ADO has a built in timeout of 30 seconds, SSMS does not. 

And if you show me the query execution plan, I'll bet we can make it run in
seconds not hours.

Paul,

It isn't about how long the query takes.  No I can't show you the execution
plan because this happens for ANY query that takes longer than 30 seconds.
I understand that you want long running views to time out, but why does a
view time out and the query based on that SQL not time out?  It is
irritating to have to go get the sql, create a query, dump the SQL in there,
then run it in order to get results.  I just want to run the View and get
the results.

Even of it takes hours? Can you show us the SQL and the Query Execution
Plan?

When I try to execute a view, if results aren't returned within some short
period of time (about 30 seconds) I get a timeout message.  OTOH, if I copy
the Sql, open a new query, paste it in and run, it will complete even if it
takes hours.

Does anyone know where to go to change the timeout period for views run
directly?
