Database Connection Failing During ETL

Hi there,<br /><br />I am encountering a problem when running SSIS. The error message reports that there is a connection error. The error message is consistent but can occur on different steps of the job. When I re-run the step manually it completes successfully.<br /><br />It is as if the database is temporarily going offline or possibly into Recovery mode?<br /><br />We encountered the same error previously when we moved to a new server which had a smaller drive used to store the log files. So it could be linked to Transaction log not growing fast enough or becoming too big? My other theory is that it is related to specifications of the server:-<br /><br />CPU Intel Xeon 3.2 GHz<br />RAM 1.5 Gb<br />Data Drive: 40Gb used 13Gb free<br />Log Drive: 8Gb used 31Gb free<br /><br />The memory meets the minimum requirement but is this enough?<br /><br />The databases being used are of the following size:-<br /><br />Staging Database: 3.0 Gb<br />Reporting Database: 3.2 Gb<br /><br />AutoGrowth, By 10%, restricted growth to 1024Mb<br /><br />If anyone has experienced this issue before or knows of any recommended configuration settings related to the Transaction Log or hardware specs, then it would be greatly appreciated.<br /><br />Thanks,<br /><br />Malcolm [<img src=’/community/emoticons/emotion-1.gif’ alt=’:)‘ />]<br /><br /><br />Here is one of the error messages:-<br /><br /><i>Message<br />Executed as user: MULTISQLService. …n 9.00.3042.00 for 32-bit Copyright (C) Microsoft Corp 1984-2005.
