Error in application log - Event ID 5586

Question

Hi everyone,

I keep getting this error, intermittently, on one of my servers (MOSS 2007 SP2 WFE with SQL 2005 SP3 separate backend) and my research is not coming up with anything conclusive.  Has someone seen this before and can share some information (solution, what to try, etc)?

From the application log:
Event ID: 5586

Answer 1

Looks like someone is calling the lists webserivce and passing in a CAML query that is really big and trying to update a list.  You will need to check to see what applications have been written that are making these calls to your Farm.

Answer 2

Hi Chris, thanks for the reply!

Might an InfoPath form or an Excel spreadsheet be reasonable suspects?  Those are the only two "applications" that I know of for sure connect to our farm.  No other custom application (or standard for that matter) have been connected to any lists.

Answer 3

Yep, those could certainly make calls to the web service with CAML queries.  I'd check the date in the log file with any files that have been updated in the target site and see if you can pinpoint what action might have triggered it.

Answer 4

Do you know how to reproduce this error in user interface?

 

Most probably you don't, we can see in the error message that some operation generated a huge T-SQL query:

 

SELECT TOP 1729 why 1729 number of list item? Anyway, this information may be useless because the 1729 number maybe computed by previous statements, do you have many lists that contain more than 1729 number of items?

 

FROM AllUserData WITH (INDEX=AllUserData_PK)  INNER JOIN Docs  It tries to get list items , however, from which list?

 

AllUserData.tp_ListId = @L3

 

LEFT OUTER JOIN AllUserData AS t2

 

t2.tp_ListId = @L4

 

LEFT OUTER JOIN AllUserData AS t3

 

t3.tp_ListId = @L4

 

seems that the query tries to get list item from two lists @L3,@L4(maybe @L3 left outer join @L4, I guess, I had not analysis the T-SQL clearly). Unfortunately, the value for variable @L3 and @4 is not logged;

 

However, there are so many tp_id value as filter later in the log :

AllUserData.tp_ListID=@L3 AND ( (AllUserData.tp_IsCurrent = 1) )

 

OR (AllUserData.[tp_ID] = N'503')) OR (AllUserData.[tp_ID] = N'507')) OR (AllUserData.[tp_ID] = N'499')) OR (AllUserData.[tp_ID] = N'510')) OR (AllUserData.[tp_ID] = N'486')) OR (AllUserData.[tp_ID] = N'560')) OR (AllUserData.[tp_ID] = N'508')) OR (AllUserData.[tp_ID] = N'513')) OR (AllUserData.[tp_ID] = N'361')) OR (AllUserData.[tp_ID] = N'514')) OR (AllUserData.[tp_ID] = N'372')) OR (AllUserData.[tp_ID] = N'515')) OR (AllUserData.[tp_ID] = N'521'))

 

Item from different list can have the same tp_id, if we run the following T-SQL in SharePoint content database,

 

Select tp_ListID from AllUserData where tp_ID=N’521’ and tp_IsCurrent=1

 

We may get a lot of ListID returned, we still don’t know which one is @L3. If we try

 

Select L521.tp_ListID

From      (Select tp_ListID from AllUserData where tp_ID=N’521’ and tp_IsCurrent=1) L521

inner join (Select tp_ListID from AllUserData where tp_ID=N’508’ and tp_IsCurrent=1) L508

on L521.tp_ListID=L508.tp_ListID

 

chances are some ListID will disappear in the result set since they may not contain both 508 and 521 (item 508 in that list may have been deleted)

 

If you future expend this kind query pattern, using large tp_id values from the log, you may finally determine with list the variable @L3 stands for.

 

 

Disclaimer:

This is really not “orthodoxical” approach to troubleshoot this kind of error, just write in hoping that you can find the operation that cause the error.

Answer 5

Hello Gu,

Thanks for the reply! :)  I'm not quite understanding what you want me to try.  Can you try "dumming it down" as I'm not a SQL gal?

Thanks!
Veronica

 

Answer 6

 

Forget the SQLs if you are not a SQL gal, I agree with Chris that “Looks like someone is calling the lists webserivce and passing in a CAML query that is really big”. Maybe the CAML is not so lengthy, but the engine translate it to lengthy SQL.

 

However, from the log information you post, we cannot find out which List is queried. I can only see so many AllUserData.[tp_ID] values. Since item from different lists can have the same tp_ID values, yet chance are not all the lists can have all the items 503,507,499,510… , I was trying to find the list that haveall these items. Find out the list involved may help you to find out the operation that generated this lengthy SQL in the log.

 

Now, I think that this is really not a clever idea, since we can also find out what operation caused this error by review the SharePoint audit log, or SharePoint usage log, or just IIS log. Find out what URL was visited at the time of the error log.
