Sometimes, my web application is throwing timeout exceptions when trying to execute a specific stored procedure. From that moment on, the stored procedure will never execute again until I reboot the database server.

The strange thing is that I can execute the stored procedure manually from within the SQL Server Management studio, and the execution time is correct (about 0.2 seconds).

But if the same exact call is made from the webserver… Timeout. How is that possible?

I am using SQL Server 2012 and I’m mapping the stored procedure in my code using Linq2Sql.

Additional information: I have tried running the “detect blocking” sql from this blog post: http://blog.sqlauthority.com/2010/10/06/sql-server-quickest-way-to-identify-blocking-query-and-resolution-dirty-solution/ but no rows are returned.

    Possibly a bad query plan is cached in SQL server. You could try to recompile the Stored Procedure with the Recompile option. With this option the SP is not cached and is recompiled every time it is called.
