In an ASP.NET application, what happens if an error occurs when returning the results of a stored procedure.

For example:

Situation

In the diagram above, the ASP.NET application calls a stored procedure to obtain some data, the stored procedure executes and SQL server tries to send back the results.

But what if IIS is not reachable, what does SQL server do?

  • Does SQL Server attempt to send the results over and over again?
  • Is there a time out?
  • Is the server storing the data somewhere?
  • Does IIS keep sending the request over and over again?

    To answer your questions:

    • Does SQL Server attempt to send the results over and over again?

      No if the connection between IIS and SQL server has died then SQL will kill the job and log an error.

    • Is there a time out?

      The SQL client in your ASP.NET application will thrown an exception either because the request has timed out or because the connection has died.

    • Is the server storing the data somewhere?

      If the stored procedure explicitly uses temp tables then there may be some data associated with the task that SQL will clean up.

    • Does IIS keep sending the request over and over again?

      Not unless you write code to do this.
