Hello guys and gals.

Firstly apologies for my limited knowledge on SQL2005. I have inherited a problem with a database!

All the information I have been given from a 3rd party is as follows:

"The error is that the logs can not be written to. Is there a problem with their file system? Looks like the database is on some form of SAN??" The SAN part can be ignored I think!

I have also been given this by the changepoint administrator.

"the components that failed are `Import Data into fact tables` and `Task ForwardView Time Entry Failed"

My first question is:

"What is the first thing I can do to troubleshoot this?"

Secondly:

"How can I fix it!"

Once again, apologies for the lack of information but any help you can give me would be much appreciated.

Ensure the db has enough free space in transaction log and you let log file auto grow. If the db is in full or bulk-logged mode, you have to backup log periodically to free log space.
