Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding. System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException (0×80131904): Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding. at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection)
 

The timeout is caused by the length of time it is taking your application to complete the process. You can try changing your SQL Query or updating the connection string to include a longer timeout. The default timeout for .net is 30 seconds.

The number in the database is a “unix time”, aka timestamp – seehttp://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Unix_time

You can convert this to a string using a PHP function like date() http://php.net/date - pass the timestamp as the second parameter.

Eg:

<?php
echo date('Y-m-d H:i:s', 1334349567);
?>;

You will need to modify the neo-runtime.xml file under /lib , try changing the value to 500 instead of 100

  • Customers who want to change postParameterLimit, go to {ColdFusion-Home}/lib for Server Installation or {ColdFusion-Home}/WEB-INF/cfusion/lib for Multiserver or J2EE installation. Open file neo-runtime.xml, after line.

<var name=’postSizeLimit’><number>100.0</number></var>

          add the below line and you can change 100 with desired number.

<var name=’postParametersLimit’><number>100.0</number></var>

There seem to be a bug with the new Google Play store. We clearly had enough storage on our SD card and internal memory .

The only fix was to uninstall the Market updates which includes Google Play store

 

Settings>Applications, find the Market application and select Uninstall Updates for it.

failed with the following error: “The backup of full-text catalog ‘sampledb’ is not permitted because
it is not online. Check errorlog file for the reason that full-text catalog became offline and bring it
online. Or BACKUP can be performed by using the FILEGROUP or FILE clauses to restrict the selection to
include only online data.
BACKUP DATABASE is terminating abnormally.”. Possible failure reasons: Problems with the query,
“ResultSet” property not set correctly, parameters not set correctly, or connection not established
correctly.

 

*Fix if you not using Fulltext search *

1)Put the database into single user mode.
2)Detach the database. But before clicking OK for the detach, UNCHECK the Keep full text
catalogs.
3)Reattach the database

 

*If you are using full text search then i I would recommend backing up the mdf and ldf files instead of doing as standard backup. There are other ways to perform this task and we are open to recommendations. Catch up on Twitter @signofthegrind
