Hi I'm trying to update the permissions to a parent folder and unify them on the sub folders but I am getting the following error: A critical error has occurred. The transaction log for database 'RDP' is full. To find out why space in the log cannot be reused, see the log_reuse_wait_desc column in sys.databases The log_reuse_wait_desc column in sys.databases says 'ACTIVE_TRANSACTION'. Any ideas as to why this happens?

Hi Bart, It sounds like the database transaction log file is full, just like the error says. That would likely be because the dB is in full recovery mode and no transaction log backups have been made. Tlog backup have to be made to truncate the transaction log file. Simply backing up the dB does not do that. It is likely that the log file is huge and the disk may have run out of space. Rob Ralston

Thanks for your reply Rob. My database is in a SIMPLE recovery mode so it does not have logs.

Even in simple recovery mode there is a log file, and the physical file can grow quite large depending on what a database is doing. It is automatically truncated "on checkpoint", but that is a logical operation, not physical. So check the disk with the log file, and the size of the file, just to be certain. If that is all OK, then it looks like you may be experiencing a database problem, possibly due to the number of files and folder being "unified" and the resultant number of transactions. Rob

About Bring2mind

Bring2mind is the company of Peter Donker, a DotNetNuke enthusiast who has been involved with the platform from the very beginning. At the same time as the market for modules emerged, he realized there was no good document management solution for the platform yet and he set about creating this. In part he based the module on his experience with other document management systems he used while working as a researcher. His module, Document Exchange, was an instant success and has since become the premier document management solution for DotNetNuke. In 2004 he created Bring2mind as a vehicle for the module and is one of the few successful businesses solely based on a DotNetNuke product.
