I am running a C# 2010 windows application that calls a C# 2008 console application to make various calls to a web service. I am getting the following timeout error. I am wondering what part of the application I should look at to determine what is causing the timeout? Both applications are compiled in debug mode.
I am wondering if you can tell in the application what timeout parameter(s) need to be changed? What coding changes would I make to prevent the timeout errors from occuring?
Here is the error message:
Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.

As your stack trace mentions SQLClient in almost every line I would suspect it is your database query that is timing out, that will live in your WCF. You can change both the the connection timeout and/or the command timeout.
Never underestimate the power of human stupidity

If it is a large application and especially if it is a system (multiple applications like you're having) you might want to consider some serious logging. The timestamps in the log can immediately tell you where the culprit is.
I suggest thinking the logging mechanism over for a while before jumping in a quick and dirty solution. Good logging saved my day in numerous times.
Hope this helps.

What you need to do FIRST is determine what is being processed (presuming some SQL.)
The SECOND you need to determine what a reasonable time for that process to take - especially from the business side.
As an example it unreasonable to expect a user to wait for an hour for a web site to finish processing a request (where the web app is blocked until it is done.)
To "fix" a problem like this depends on the specifics of the problem but some or all of the following might be necessary but this is not a complete list.
- Tune the database/schema
- Adjust the SQL operation parameters or SQL itself.
- Rearch/design the interface to preclude such operations.
- Rearch/design the interface to create a batch processing system where a request is posted, some other process processes each request, and some time later a result is created, then the caller at some later time, may submit another (different) request to retrieve the result.
