PowerPivots 2010: Query keeps timing out when attempting to Edit Table Properties

Excel PowerPivots Version:  PowerPivots for Excel 2010
Problem:  I have a table in PowerPivot windows using a SQL Query for a data source.  The query in question requires about 3 minutes to regenerate.  When I open Edit Table Properties for this data source the query times out
and I get an error (see below):  "
Failed to retrieve data from udvTrainJobReportsData. Reason: Query timeout expired"
This seems to happen anytime I use a query that takes longer than a couple of minutes to regenerate.  Anyone have an idea on how to get around this.  Is there a timeout setting somewhere in PowerPivots that can be increased?
Regards,
....bob

Hi,
We could add the seconds in the timeout values.
Then, if you want to add the timeout values for the SQL Query, please following the link to do:

  • Tabular data model: Query keeps timing out when attempting to Edit Table Properties

    Problem: I have a table in tabular data model using a SQL Query for a data source. The query in question requires about 3 minutes to regenerate. When I open Edit Table Properties for this data source the query times out and I get an error (see below): "

    Hi ManikantM,
    According to your description, you query keeps time out when edit table properties. Right?
    In this scenario, this error is thrown when connection or query execution exceeds the time out value. Please try to import this table and then increase the connection time out seconds.
    We can increase to ExternalCommandTimeout in Analysis Server Properties. Please refer to link below:

  • Iphone 4.3 software update keeps timing out when attempting to download.

    I have tried several times (at least 6) to download the new 4.3 software. It goes all the way through the download process and when it goes to install it, it says that it has "timed out". I have a secure wireless connection and it has not been disconnected or interupted any of the times. Is there a setting I need to change or what? There are several apps I cannot use because 4.3 will not download. PLEASE HELP!!

    Listen, I for one can assure you that I do not use 'HALF* programs' or equipment, it is a great insult you say this, to all who spend big bucks to use Apple Ipod's and pay your wages to work for Apple. I know that programers who write these updates are individuals who are very highly intelligent in their field. For them to take nanosecond and provide a little more time to keep all users safe, even the ones who may use your so called 'Half* programs" safe, they still pay good money to use iTunes, Apple products.
    Here is a suggestion, make the updates alittle smaller, AND a whole lot less attitude from customer service people we are only asking a question.
    Have a good day.

  • HT4623 I am having trouble with my iPod 5th gen after iOS update. It's in recovery mode and iTunes keeps timing out when I try to restore it. What should I do???

    I am having trouble with my iPod 5th gen after iOS update. It's in recovery mode and iTunes keeps timing out when I try to restore it. What should I do??? If possible, I would also like to keep all of my data.

    As with all clickwheel iPods, you can reset this iPod by first toggling the hold switch on and off and then simultaneously pressing the select (center) and menu buttons for approximately 5-10 seconds. This is a common fix should your iPod behave unexpectedly or lock up. Once reset, the iPod should display an Apple logo for a few seconds before showing the main menu. This procedure is similar to rebooting a computer and damages none of your music or data.

  • My firefox keeps timing out when i am using it and my internet provider, Comcast , keeps dropping my connection. what is causing the problem, comcast or firefox taking to long to open?

    when trying to run my firefox, the pages take too long to open, loading, and then my internet connection is lost. sometimes i can get on and for example, i was deleteing emails and after less than 10 mins my connection is lost. so i run comcast desk diagnosis and it refinds my connection but when i try to open any page with my firefox it takes too long and times out.

    Insanity that it takes this kind of work to get a browser to function correctly. Is Mozzilla TRYING to ruin Firefox. Every update it's slower and more buggy. Since the last update, it freezes so much, it's basically a worthless browser.
    Google the problem, people are jumping to chrome for the exact issue.

  • HT1688 my iphone keeps timing out when trying to access the app store

    once I get to the app store, it just keeps saying "loading..." how do I fix this??

    All apps are tied to the Apple ID they are purchased with and is not transferable.
    You should delete them and re-download them with your new Apple ID.

    I am on a Windows 7 OS attempting to reduce pdf size with my Adobe Acrobat Standard XI & Pro.  The application keeps timing out and  at the Subsetting embedded fonts portion and the application gives "Adobe Acrobat has stopped working" and then closes.  The document is 275 pages.  Is there something I can do to stop this?

    Hi Ricci,
    Since when are you facing this issue? Did you tried system restore to a date before this problem occured.
    Does acrobat stop working when you open this specific pdf file or with any pdf file that you open?

  • Can anyone help me!!! i have an i pod touch and the 4 digit passcode has been forgotten. i have tried a number of times to restore the factory settings on i tunes and have put the i pod into recovery mode, but attempts keep timing out

    my son has forgotten his 4 digit pass code for hios i pod touch. i have been instructed to disable it and connect to i tunes to restore factory settings. when I do this the download time is anything up to 20 hours and it keeps timing out. it is now saying that i tunes cannot connect to the i pod because it is locked with a passcode and saying that i must enter the passcode - can anyone help?

    - To get around the passcode issue, place the iPod in recovery mode. For how to see:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore
    - If you are getting a network timeout error during the restore, disable the computer's security software during the restore.

  • ITunes store keeps saying that my session has timed out when trying to buy a product from the store

    I Tunes is telling me that my session has timed out when trying to buy a gift voucher, which i have done many times before.
    The most recent change i'v made to my computer before this happened was to download an update (MacOSX updatecombo 10.7.3dmg)
    a couple of weeks ago. I'v turned off the firewall as suggested whilst trying to transact and turned it back on again, but don't know
    what else to try. The problem is three days old as i left and came back to it to see if there might be a glitch in the system.
    I'v been able to access the credit i have in the store, but not buy the itunes voucher to email to my own a/c. Please help someone if you can
    Sandystone.

    Thanks for your suggestion Ned01, I tried this as a last ditch attempt, unfortunatly it made no difference in my case, but i'm pleased it did for you. However, because you reminded me to have another go at this problem, i tried something else (which i'd unsucsessfuly tried before), that is, i deleted the 'CLICK & SAVE " a/c i'd set up recently,  and reverted to my previous payment me and would you know it , this time it worked !! I set up a trail purchase and it worked.
    It seems to me that other poeple with this problem have to solve it by trail and error, but thank you for your help.Sandystone..

    If you are doing it via your computer's iTunes then try temporarily turning off all your firewall and antivirus software on your computer until the download/restore has completed.

  • Tried loading the latest version of itunes but the download would not complete. Now when I connect my phone to a usb i get an error stating required files are missing, reinstall itunes. I tried that but the reinstall keeps timing out?

    Tried loading the latest version of itunes but the download would not complete. Now when I connect my phone to a usb i get an error stating required files are missing, reinstall itunes. I tried that but the reinstall keeps timing out?

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for performance issues or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.
