Further to our team viewer meeting, we reviewed the below:

 

  1. Verified the SYS001 process – it was running successfully every minute
  2. Verified the process setup – it was running successfully
  3. Confirmed SMTP details in web file – correct
  4. Confirmed main setup in Configuration - correct
  5. We reset the process setup and restart IIS – verified the emails but the status was still as Ready
  6. We restarted the SQL services – verified the emails but the status was still as Ready
  7. We then restart the server machine – verified the emails but the status was still as Ready

 

We will reconnect to diagnose this further.

Aarti and Sanjay connected on-site via Teams and found the following issue:

  1. All settings are correct
  2. Procedure "LT_SYS_MSG_Notifications_Select2" is timing out as there are a large number of un-sent emails with lots of CC and TO address to go through. The process is taking over 40 seconds.
  3. Resolved the issue by reducing the batch size

Next step:

  1. Aarti to setup a TEST environment for Sanjay to see what can be done to prevent this in V12
  2. Sanjay to confirm this issue is resolved in the current release

PART A - Development work for this case has been completed.

1. The change will be available in version: 14.00

2. The following changes were made(Include Database object names, Program classes, and any other relevant information):

  1. Added the Email selection process to use "DataCoommandTimeout" which increases the time allowance from 30 seconds to 1 hour

3. Affected Areas:

  1. Email and Report Email processing

4. The issue was caused by:

  1. Found that some "email body" can be very large, causing the selection process to take longer than 30 seconds. In MLC case, it was taking 46 seconds causing a timeout and failing the email task.

5. Other Relevant Notes
