At startup, SQL Server allocates a structure for incoming connections.
One application might require several connections (depending of how it is
written).
By default, user connections is set to 15. You have ro reconfigure it to a
higher value. Search in Books Online for "User Connections".

Hi,
I'm using :
1. SQL Server 6.5 with "10 user system"
2. Windows NT 4.0 (Servicd Pack 3)
3. VB 5
4. Ethernet LAN
5. Compaq Server and workstation
Intermitently, I encounters the following message :
"Unable to connect. The maximum number of '15' configured user connections
are already connected.
System Administrator can configure to a higher value with sp_configure"
Can anyone explain what is that means ?
Thank you.
1. Help! with maximum number of configured user connections
Please can someone help me.
I was working with a database (SQLServer v6.5 on NT 4.0) tonight via a
RAS connection. I was adding fields to a table and trying to populate
the field (using the Enterprise Manager with SA rights) when my dial-up
connection was dropped. It happened in the middle of a large update
command. I reconnected and found that the update had not been commited
so I tried again. I got disconnected again. This happened several more
times until finally I was unable to establish a connection to the
database server because it says all the user connections are taken.
It's off-hours. I'm the only one trying to use the database. So I'm
assuming that my repeated attempts to do this update have created a set
of processes that the server still thinks are active. Does this sound
like a good theory?
The problem is that I'm unable to reconnect to the server and kill the
processes.
Will the server kill them automatically after a certain period of time?
Do I have to shut down the server and bring it back up to clear things?
What should I do? I have to have the server back up by 8am PST. How
hosed am I?
Thanks in advance for any help.
