c# - MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlException: Timeout expired

Question

In recent times, a particular page in my web app throws the

Exception Details: MySql.Data.MySqlClient.MySqlException: Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.

Though I use Ibtais as persistence layer, this error occurs. I have restarted the MySql service instance but stil i get the same error. It didn't happen earlier but happens frequently in recent times.

All the web applications deployed on the server uses Ibatis and the DB server remains on the same machine where IIS is installed. There are about 8000 records in which around 300 to 500 would be filtered on page load

Any insights for the cause of the problem?

I encountered the same problem with yours, and I found this MySQLConnection--Specifying default command timeout.

Just add "default command timeout=xxx" into your connectString, this key's value is in seconds.
I tried and it worked for me.
