Summary:
Problem ID: PRSQL9201002
SYMPTOMS
SAF runs out of memory while repeatedly performing certain
operations that require displaying information in the form of a
message box.
SAF displays the following message:
Not enough free memory remains to continue with the current
operation. SAF must cancel this operation.
CAUSE
On an MS-DOS workstation, when SAF uses a character-oriented
message display box to display some information repeatedly (for
example, from the Admin menu, choose Display Current Users), the
above error message is displayed.
The number of times the operation is executed before the message
appears depends on the amount of available free conventional memory
for the application program.
WORKAROUND
Use stored procedures (such as sp_who) within SAF to obtain the
required information. Using stored procedures to perform operations
avoids the message box being displayed and prevents the above
error. Increasing the available conventional memory causes the
problem to appear less frequently.
STATUS
Microsoft has confirmed this to be a problem in SQL Server versions
1.1, 1.11, and 4.2. We are researching this problem and will post
new information here as it becomes available.
