We have a 3rd party application which uses a connection to a SQL
Server 2005 database. It intermittently loses connnection to the
database and displays an error. The vendor is playing hardball with
resolving the issues. What we would like to do is have a small
application that can run on the machine the client applilcation is
installed on and make connection checks and logs. This way if both
loose connection we can rule out the 3rd party software as being the
issue. However, if theirs looses connection and the monitor
application does not notice anything we can use that information as
leverage for dealing with the vendor.
Is there any such application out there that would do this?
Thanks in advance.

We have written a thread to monitor whether the database connection is still

This monitoring thread executes a stored procedure, sp_TestDB, with ADO

Most of the time we have no problems executing it. However, we receive the
following error randomly:

(WrapperWrite()). Msg:Unspecified error
We are convinced that the machine where the database server is installed is
definitely alive as we ping it all the time and there is no request time out

ScottHi Scott,
Since this is an unspecified error on the client side, In this case, please
try to use SQL profiler to start a trace to see what is actually happening
on the server. The trace log might show more information on this error.
