Shared Memory Provider, Error: 0 - No Process Is On The Other End Of The Pipe?
May 17, 2010
I'm tearing my hair out here - I'm building a .NET web application at the moment and every time I either want to access the database/build a page or create a new datasource I get the following error:A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the login process. (provider: Shared Memory Provider, error: 0 - No process is on the other end of the pipe.)I also get it in SQL Server Management Studio 2008 quite a lot too. I know what you're thinking - search the web for the error, read what the nice people have to say. Only I've spent the last week or so doing this, and I'm no closer to resolving this.
I am unable to connect to my local instance of SQL Server 2008 Express using SQL Server Management Studio.I believe the problem is related to a change I made to the connection protocols. Before the error occurred, I had Shared Memory enabled and Named Pipes and TCP/IP disabled. I then enabled both Named Pipes and TCP/IP, and this is when I started experiencing the problem.
I have now set Named Pipes and TCP/IP back to disabled. When I try to connect to the server with SSMS (with either my SQL server sysadmin login or with windows authentication), I get the following error message:
"A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the login process. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 0 - No process is on the other end of the pipe.) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 233)"
My first question here is: why is it returning a Named Pipes error? Why isn't it using Shared Memory? It seems like it is not listening on Shared Memory for some reason?When I set Named Pipes to enabled and try to connect, I get the same error message.My windows account is does not have administrator priviliges on my computer.
I'm trying to access global shared memory from an ASP.NET web method while impersonating a client, but I get access denied when trying to open the handle. As an example:
[WebMethod] public string Testing() { string result = null; using (var ctx = WindowsIdentity.Impersonate(IntPtr.Zero)) [code]...
I am building an asp.net application, using II6 on windows server 2003 (vps hosting).
I am confronted with an error I didn't receive on my development machine (windows 7, iis 7.5, 64 bit).
When my wcf service tries launching my query running against a local sql server this is the error I receive:
Memory gates checking failed because the free memory (43732992 bytes) is less than 5% of total memory. As a result, the service will not be available for incoming requests. To resolve this, either reduce the load on the machine or adjust the value of minFreeMemoryPercentageToActivateService on the serviceHostingEnvironment config element.
I have both VS 2005 and 2008 installed on my machine. 2005 is fine. For 2008, literally any asp.net project I try to create gets this eror. I try stepping into the code, and the error occurs apparently before anything that I can trap is loaded. There is no information written to the event log. I have tried this with a "Hello World" webpage with nothing else going on. Seems unique to my Windows Server 2003 machine.
I have a WCF service hosted on win 2008 server. I'm using WAS to expose a named pipe endpoint on the service and have a client website that consumes the service. When i hit the website from a remote machine i get the following error:The pipe name could not be obtained for the pipe URI: Access is denied. (5, 0x5)Now if i hit the website ON THE SERVER it's being hosted from, using localhost in the url, it works fine. Clearly there is something i don't understand about what the named pipe endpoint is looking for. I tried running a trace from my service, but there is no output because the call doesn't even get to the service.
We have an app that is on a shared host. I need the app to once a day look at some data and if it meets some criteria, then it would run some code to send out an email to those clients.
Running an ASP.NET application in its own app pool on Windows Server 08 / IIS 7.
Server keeps hitting 97% memory usage and sticking there, trying to work out if that is our application's fault.
My main question is, does all of the memory used by an application get displayed as the working set for the w3wp.exe process associated to it? Our application (according to IIS7 and the worker process in task manager) is using less then 350mb. I want to know if it is possible for our application to be using 5GB of memory but only showing 350mb for the process?
I have to retrieve the data from the web service and this data should be kept in process's memory and use it where needed.Do not like to call web service every time.Is there any method to do this?
We're experiencing a nasty issue in Oracle 11g Release 2 where the w3wp process takes over and entire processor core, and debugging shows that the Oracle data provider is throwing ThreadAbortExceptions infinitely. A developer found this issue by doing the following:
1) Browse a web site that uses Oracle data connections locally (http://localhost/OracleWebSite - we use IIS, not the ASP.NET dev server, for all of our sites). This ensures that the w3wp process is running and that an active Oracle pool of connections exists in the app pool.2) Stop the web site (or perform a Rebuild All operation in Visual Studio on the web site in question).Our Oracle connection handling in the affected applications (all Oracle web apps) is well-established and robust. This issue does not occur if we disable connection pooling. This issue does not occur in Oracle 11g Release 1.
I have a stored procedure which fetches data after joining 8-9 tables and inserts that into a temp table. It was running fine till now, but now when the amount of data fetched have exceeded 20000, the SP is breaking. I have debugged the sp and found that this main query is failing after returning arround 15000-16000 records.
The error message says Transaction (Process ID) was deadlocked on lock resources with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Rerun the transaction. I know what is deadlock, but when i checked with SP_LOCK stored proc i only found that my process is running on database only. So how is this getting deadlocked when there are no other processes running simultaneously on server.

when i upload my site on webserver and connect with remote sqlserver2005 using connection string....
it shows an error above ..i m using aspnetdb.mdf in my website in APP_Data Folder... features i use in my website is Login Control, Password recovery, signup control...
This website [URL] does not accept the pipe character | in the URL
This works [URL]
but this doesn't
[URL]
It looks like the pipe is an issue as
[URL]
works.
I need to stop this because a third party called Omniture needs to access this website automatically with the | in the URL. I cannot ask them to encode the | as they are a big company. They say there is some way to allow the | but I am not sure how.
I have some code in my new asp.net app that I need to share. So i created a shared class called "utilities.vb" and put it in the APP_CODE folder. There is a function I have in there that pulls a person's image based off of their MemberId.
[Code]....
And I can call this function from my page using utilities.FcnGetMemberImage(). Ok, so all good so far until it complains about...
"Cannot refer to an instance member of a class from within a shared method or shared member initializer without an explicit instance of the class"
when referring to the Server.MapPath()
But the problem is that if I don't make it a Shared Function, I can't access it from my other pages. But if I do make it a Shared Function, it throws this error. The fix is supposed to be that I either don't share the function, or
"add the shared keyword to the member declaration", according to Microsoft at http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/xfsswe45.aspx
But I'm not exactly sure how to "add the shared keyword to the member declaration" or what this means exactly and how this might affect other parts of my code?
Or is there a better way to work around this dilemma?
I am getting a weird error in asp.net while using leadtools imaging api. Here's the stack trace.
System.AccessViolationException: Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corrupt. at SetThreadData(_THREADDATA* ) at Leadtools.Codecs.CodecsOptions.Use() at Leadtools.Codecs.RasterCodecs.DoSave(SaveParams saveParams) at Leadtools.Codecs.RasterCodecs.Save(RasterImage image, Stream stream, RasterImageFormat format, Int32 bitsPerPixel)........
I am maintaining C# .NET code written by somebody else, I get following exception few times,Attempted to read or write protected memory. This is often an indication that other memory is corruptThe code structure where I get the above exception is somethign like this,- it is using ref variables in following sequence,Variable-1 and variable-2 are local variables in App1, - App1: func1() which passes these variables reference to func2(), - App1: func2() passes same variables reference via .net remoting to another application (App2).-App2: does the same passes same received reference to another call 2 times.- The execption is occured while returning from App2.
(App1:func1(ref Var1, ref Var2) --> App1:func2(ref Var1, ref Var2) <---App1 .net remoting to App2--> App2:func3(ref Var1, ref Var2)--> App2:func4(ref Var1, ref Var2)-->variables getting updated and function returned to original caller)
My doubts are ,1. Is passing reference variables in such chain is correct? will it cause such exeption? Does .net support ref variable call directly?
While debugging a handheld application within a PC Emulator I am getting an Error"Storage Memory is critically low.If you donot increase storage memory you mannot be able to start some program. use file explorer to delete some files..."How can increase the memory size of the emulatorI have added an external dll within the application at that time only this memory error occurs
