The server was overloaded. Impossible to process data.

Hi,
We are running into a condition 503 Service Unavailable when a user logs in via SAML2. To replicate the scenario I log into the SAML idp which tkes me to the portal. I click logoff which then puts me back onto the idp login page. I login again and then get a 503 error. This started happening after activating SAML2 in the portal. The Portal is running on NetWeaver 7.31 sp11.
In the default trace I see the following.
#2.0 #2014 11 11 16:10:49:241#0-500#Error#com.sap.engine.services.servlets_jsp.Security#

Service not available. Details: The server was overloaded. Impossible to process data.#

Hello,
We are facing same issue - we are on Ep NW 7.30 SPS 12.
I could find below SAP Notes which were recently released
2132887 - SAML2 log out from the portal fails. Error "Server is overloaded. It is impossible to process data" might also occur
2133307 - Improve the DoNotLogoutResources Option in SAML 2.0
Note says tp edit parameter DoNotLogoutResources by adding URL - /irj/servlet/prt/portal/prtroot/com.sap.portal.dsm.Terminator in SAP NetWeaver Administrator under Configuration -> Authentication and Single Sign-On -> Authentication -> Components, in the SAML2LoginModule.
Is that we need to Edit the Login Module Options and add this?
Did any one give a try? Please suggest
Thanks,
Subbu

Try to understand but could not understand because i'am new to wcf services. Please help me to find the error details.
Thanks in advance

Hi Mohan,
I didn't use Fiddler before, I just download and use it but how to see the request message from this software?
I have logged the request to event log before send to web service and copy this request from event log to testing with soapUI, so I don't think have between the actual messages being sent to your client via orchestration and soapui. In the log Response shape
I see the fault response in event log.
You can see
this link to know how to use fiddler. As I suggested above the error you need to check is at the server side who is hosting the service( your party ) because you are getting fault response properly from them. The webservice you are calling seems to look
like WCF service too. Your life would have been so easier if you could ask them to have firewall open from your dev box to their dev server so that you can use use "Add Service Reference" wizard, that even they have .NET wcf service too.
Did you by any chance manage to talk to them what they are getting or if they can increase the exception details in the fault message for you?
If this answers your question please mark it as Answer and if this post is helpful, please vote as helpful. Thanks !

A failure occurred while the server was processing report file

Hi All,
I keep getting this error while opening the report in Infoview, "A failure occurred while the server was processing report file".
I checked Event viewer there i have lot of errors with the same message and the source is "BusinessObject_crproc".
Please advise me what i have to do to resolve the issue.
Environment: BOXI3.1, CR2008, Windows Server 2003
Thanks
Sudharsan.

We got this error message on a report that had 5 subreports, 3 of which were based on stored procedures. The report was running fine in our Dev environment and in the CR developer, but not when we published it to another environment. The problem was caused because the stored procedures had been changed in Dev (so that they ran correctly) but these changes had not been released to the other environment. Once the scripts were run to update the stored procedures the report ran successfully. So it apepars that the problem was because the stored procedure/s the subreports were using were failing, but we only got the RCIRAS0546 error message.

An Error Occurred During Report Processing - Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManagerServerErrorException: An unknown error occurred while processing the request on the server. The status code returned from the server was: 12019

When I run the report on production I got the following error message:
Sys.WebForms.PageRequestManagerServerErrorException: An unknown error occurred while processing the
request on the server. The status code returned from the server was: 12019
It hasn’t happen on Dev and Test before.
I googled, The error is described as:
12019 ERROR_INTERNET_INCORRECT_HANDLE_STATE
The requested operation cannot be carried out because the
handle supplied is not in the correct state.
But I cannot find the solution for that.
Has it happend to you before? How to solve that?

The server was unable to load the SSL provider library needed to log in

Hello All,
When I am trying to login to my default SQL 2008R2 SP2 instance in windows 2003 server via ssms, I am getting the below error
A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the pre-login handshake. (provider: Shared Memory Provider, error: 0 - No process is on the other end of the pipe.) (.Net SqlClient Data Provider)
When I looked into the error log and i could see lot of these messages.
The server was unable to load the SSL provider library needed to log in; the connection has been closed. SSL is used to encrypt either the login sequence or all communications, depending on how the administrator has configured the server. See Books
Online for information on this error message: 14 Not enough storage is available to complete this operation.
Force protocol encryption is set to off.
I am not sure what is the underlying problem. server's total RAM is 4 Gb and max_server_memory is set to 2 GB. CPU utilization is very normal at the time of issue.
I restarted the SQL service and i am able to connect to the instance, but the issue is repeating and i need to find a permanent fix.
Thanks

I could also see the below in error log some time before i get the above alert
Error: 701, Severity: 17, State: 123.
There is insufficient system memory in resource pool 'internal' to run this query
then after sometime flurry of alerts

How can I disable incesant rambling alarm "The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading" in FF17?

In using FF 17.0.1 in a WinXP/SP3 notebook (Acer) while traveling abroad I get unrelenting rambling and totally inconsequential display alarms "The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading." The page in question looks perfectly fine and there is NO problem whatsoever in its display. The only problem is this annoyingly useless alarm, which forces the screen display to the tab where the supposed error occurred when one is in a different tab -- in a couple of instances, this absolutely unnecessary, forced jump to a different tab has made me lose data being entered in a different tab.
The notebook is extremely lean in its booting process -- no shared DLLs preloaded; no crapware; limited essential start-ups; trimmed unused or irrelevant services. The alarm occurs:
(1) with FF and the OS in either normal or safe mode (i.e., both safe mode, both normal mode, or one safe mode and the other normal mode);
(2) using different Western European ISPs;
(3) using different DNS servers (either default European ones, or manually selected top-tier U.S. servers);
(4) and with a number of different web pages (such as many in sites of news organizations) but not in all pages (for instance, none of the different Google server pages).
The alarm does NOT occur browsing the same pages with either Chrome, Opera or IE.
I have not been able to find a clearly marked entry for such an alarm in about:config, and am weary of start changing alarms settings blindly. The text of this alarm is not found in firefox.exe so it must be in one of its associated libraries. Given that this alarm is COMPLETELY WORTHLESS, especially in its manic wanton conditions, can some one give me an informed opinion on how to disable it? TIA

Thanks for responding, David. Using <Esc> and <CtrlW> might reduce the time in returning to the other tab, but does little when the triggering of a wanton alarm is very frequent. The connections I have used were extremely reliable and fast. I am using at this moment a 54 Mbps WiFi connection that lives up to its ratings in downloading & uploading data; yet, as shown in the attached image, I still get this worthless alarm. I do not know if this problem happens with my regular ISP since I have been using this tiny notebook only when traveling -- will test that once I am back mostly for curiosity, but even then if then the alarm were not triggered this would be of little consolation, since other browsers do not have the problem right now).
As a moderator, I urge you to ask the Mozilla-powers-to-be why there is no way to turn off the alarm with, say, a true/false switch in about:config (mind you, there is still old-versions junk in this config list, so it isn't we are talking about amending the constitution). Complains about this fugly alarm can be traced in the web as far back as 2010 at least. Besides, what is the advantage of the alarm for the average user? When FF users are still posing amazingly basic questions in forums of Firefox or Mozilla support, such an alarm ought to be _off_ by default and should be an option of advanced settings menu. This annoyance shows how much the critical focus on keeping a simple GUI uncluttered by trivial or higher-level messages still needs to evolve for Firefox, which I have used it since it was known a Firebird. Guess will have to switch to Chrome now while abroad.
Happy Holidays

I have tried from so many forms. This is so frustrating. Thank for everyone/anyone who wants to help. So this is what happened: I had to uninstall my previous sqlserver 2012(which worked great) for some reason, and I uninstalled everything from that download.
Then I installed the trial edition of sql server 2012 (64 Bit) and It wouldn't connect to the database. (Error mentioned above.) My local DB is COWBOYS. (COWBOYS is also my computer name.) After this, I have tried downloading sqlexpress and sqlserver 64bit
many times and cannot connect to my local DB.
How do I connect to my Local DB?
Also, I think this might help: (When I run sqlserve.exe, which I was able to find in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\110\LocalDB\Binn, I get an error: Your SQL server installation is either corrupt or has been tampered with(Error getting
instance ID from name). Please uninstall then re-run setup to correct this problem.
I would happily re install it, if it wasn't my 20th time.
I don't have any remote connections, I don't use username/password, only window authentication. I work mostly on visual studio, but without able to store /retrieve data, I don't know how to survive.
May be the solution is very simple, but I am too frustrated.
Some of the things I have tried:
From a command prompt, enter one of the following commands:
net start "SQL Server Agent (MSSQLSERVER)" OR
net start "SQL Server Agent(instancename)"(for instance)
on my sql configuration, I cannot start anything because there is nothing there to start. I can post more details, if that would help. Also, some more details about the error:

Any one that can help me, I will be greatful. Thank you so much. p.s. please ask me anything if you have any questions.

It sounds like there are a couple things going on here. First check if you have a successful install of SQL Server, then we'll figure out the connection issues.
Can you launch SQL Server Configuration Manager and check for SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) if default instance or SQL Server (other name) if you've configured your instance as a named instance. Once you find this, make sure the service is started.
If not started, try to start it and see if it throws an error. If you get an error, post the error message your hitting. If the service starts, you can then launch SSMS and try to connect. If you have a default instance, you can use the machine
name in the connection dialog. Ex: "COWBOYS" where Cowboys is the machine name. However, if you named the SQL Server instance during install, you'll need to connect using the machine\instance format. Ex: COWBOYS\Romo (where Romo
is the instance name you set during install).
You can also look at the summary.txt file in the SQL Server setup error logs to see what happened on the most recent install. Past install history is archived in the log folder if you need to dig those up to help troubleshoot, but the most
recent one may help get to the bottom of it if there is an issue with setup detecting a prior instance that needs to be repaired.

Hyper-V could not replicate changes for virtual machine 'machinename': The connection with the server was terminated abnormally (0x00002EFE).

I have a 3 node cluster that has replica setup to replicate to another cluster off-site.
Suddenly one of the servers is not replicating with the error:
Hyper-V could not replicate changes for virtual machine 'machinename': The connection with the server was terminated abnormally (0x00002EFE). (Virtual Machine ID CC0FD4CC-F9B7-4C68-ABE8-B7D52A87899F)
All other servers are replicating fine so there cannot be a permissions or connectivity issue between the 2 clusters.
This server has 2TB of data so I'd rather not have to start the replication again.
Does anyone have any pointers?
Thanks.

Hi drensta,
Based on my knowledge , "hyper-v replica broker " is needed for failover cluster replica .
Here is a link for "Why is the "Hyper-V Replica Broker" required?"

On what website/link did you received this error message ??

The server was not found or was not accessible.

I've upgraded to a Windows 8.1 machine, and installed SQL Server 2012 (version 11.0.3128.0), and SQL Server Express 2008 R2 (v 10.0.5500.0).
I've created a database in the 11.0.3128.0 instance, and populated it by restoring it from a .BAK from another server.
I've opened Visual Studio 2012, and accessed the database via the Server Explorer, with no problem.
I've copied a running web app to this same machine, and opened it in Visual Studio 2012. But when I attempt to run in debug mode, my first attempt to access the database gives me this error:
"A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections.
(provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)"
Here's my connection string, as defined in the <connectionStrings> section of my App.Config:
<add name="EMSDataModelContainer"
connectionString="metadata=res://*/EMSDataModel.csdl|res://*/EMSDataModel.ssdl|res://*/EMSDataModel.msl;provider=System.Data.SqlClient;provider connection string="Data Source=xps-8500;Initial Catalog=EMS;Integrated Security=True;multipleactiveresultsets=True;App=EntityFramework""
providerName="System.Data.EntityClient" />
Thanks in advance.

A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections.

A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The
server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26- Error:Locating Server\instance Specified)
How Can i solve this?

1. Make sure SQL Server Service is running
2. If a named instance, make sure SQL Server browser service is running
3. Make sure SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections
4. Examine the SQL Server error log for messages confirming that SQL is listening on the expected network interfaces and ports
5. Test server connectivity with PING from the client machine
6. Test port connectivity using TELNET or PowerShell to the server and port (from step 4) from the client machine. For example
a. TELNET <server-name> 1433
b. PowerShell: 1433 | % { echo ((new-object Net.Sockets.TcpClient).Connect("YourServerName",$_)) "server listening on TCP port $_" }
7. Check firewall settings if step 5 or 6 connectivity test fails
