Known Data Comparison Issues

There are some known problems that may abort data comparison process:

  • When you are working with Azure, you can get the A transport-level error has occurred when receiving results from the server. (provider: TCP provider, error: 0 - An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.) error, and the comparison process will be aborted.

This problem occurs because Azure closes connection.

When a connection is opened, a connection pool that stores low-level connections and keeps them open to reduce performance loss when re-opening these connection is created. dbForge Fusion for SQL Server uses the ADO.NET model for data access, where pool timeout is 10 minutes, whereas Azure closes low-level connections after 5 minutes timeout. That’s why you get the above message when trying to access data.

Microsoft ADO.NET developers should correct such behaviour.
