Periodically, I have overzealous users who refresh the page even when the load time is < 1 second. Within my application pages, I’d receive errors similar to “internal connection fatal error”. The problem wouldn’t end after the refresh, though. It would cause errors on all database connections, for all users, and it would last for twenty minutes or so.
Even if I caught the error and closed any datareaders and connections, the issue would still exist.
The fix: Clearing the connection pool. Clearing all connection pools would work, as well, though, I’d prefer to be specific as possible with this. I feel that this is a bit of an extreme fix that will impact other users, though I’ve yet to find a solution that will keep the issue contained, otherwise.
