Hi Sacha,

I have run this sql command at my database.
However, I get the message "error in command"
My database is due some reason increased from 25 till 75 Mb.
I like to figure out what is going wrong.
Knowledge about handling the database with sql commands is zero.
Maybe you can provide me with the good sql command sand some commands to repair the database?

With regards, Ton Hermes

Ton,

make sure, to copy the text and save it in a text editor using encoding UTF-8 before executing it.

did you check in database adminsitration, that the database has been supersized and not the database transaction log, which needs to be truncated on frequent backups?

Hi Sebastian,

after truncate the event and site log I got this messages.
EventLog 0  0 KB 0 KB 0 KB 0 KB
SiteLog 1  40 KB 8 KB 32 KB 0 KB

After truncate with the database tool of the web host the database is 72 Mb
Normal the database has a size of 25 Mb

Then I copied and paste the example command of the DNN post to Windows notepad.
So I got only pure ascii
Then I copied and paste the command in the sql box of the DNN application.
After a click on "execute" I got the following message.

There is an error in your query!

Then I set the option "execute as a script" on true.
That gives the message below.

Do you have any suggestion how to "clean" the database?
With regards, Ton Hermes

Ton,

if the number of entries in your Eventlog, SiteLog anf SchedulerHistory are as small as stated above, the issue is due to database files. Go to management studio and try to shrink both of them.
