(I captured the HTML, but it's too much for this field.)

Since I get this error from time to time in my applications, I'd like to know the usual troubleshooting steps that you employ when you encounter this error.


TIA for your time."

I limit potential search options or enhance indexes to provide better performance. Unfortunately Graz is restricted by his hosting service in the things he can do (e.g. no Full-text indexes). I'm guessing you got a timeout on the Forum Search because you went with the default settings of "ALL Forums, All Dates" and probably even got a lot of hits. Might I suggest that you narrow the scope of your search by date or by forum.

Oh, one other solution to general problem... in code, such as ASP, use RS.GetRows or RS.GetString instead of the oft-imitated Do While NOT RS.EOF... Loop

Problem I have, Mark is:

1) I use coldFusion. No recordsets, just query returns. The error occurs before I get anything back to process.

2) I get this error on the simplest, shortest queries imaginable. On exquisitely-indexed, small tables.

TIA for your input,
