I'm having problems with my SQL Server 2008 installation (10.0.2531.0 - SP1 installed). It works as a database server for small hosting environment (about 500 sites).

I'm getting errors like this:

The client was unable to reuse a session with SPID 62, which had been reset for connection pooling. The failure ID is 29. This error may have been caused by an earlier operation failing. Check the error logs for failed operations immediately before this error message.

in Windows event log and when I run this:

SELECT  *  FROM sys.dm_os_performance_counters WHERE object_name = 'SQLServer:General Statistics'

I see that one of counters looks a little odd:

Logins/sec                   429
Connection Reset/sec         163459
Logouts/sec                  399
User Connections             30
Logical Connections          33

any ideas how to check what is causing this problem?

Our whole team is getting this error on one section of our code, were you able to find out any more info? Cheers – campo Aug 27 '10 at 1:22
This ended up being a malformed date value of a parameter we were passing in. Hope this helps someone :) – campo Aug 31 '10 at 22:42
