Executing a stored procedure that uses linked server from vb.NET

[Mikael.Bergstrand]

I can't execute my stored procedure from .NET (I think it might be
because the stored proc has joins in it via linked servers). I get
timeout error from .NET

MyBase.connString ="Integrated Security=SSPI;Persist Security
Info=False;Initial Catalog=DB;Data Source=Server;"

MyBase.selectString = "Exec sp_storedprocedure1 var1,var2,var3"
MyBase.GetDataSet()

The stored procedure takes the 3 arguments and uses joins to 2 other
db-servers that I have access to via linked server connections. (MS SQL
Server)

I can run the stored proc on in QA on my MS SQL with no prob.

Must i open connections to the 2 linked servers from .NET as well?

Glad for any opinions so i dont have to rewrite my sp,

....or does it have something to do with permissions on the linked
server? Maybe .NET does not have access to the linked servers? On the
other hand I thought that .Net would only start the sp as is, with the
same result as if I started it in QA...

....I wrote a smaller sp to test if it was the linked server that made a
mess. But it turns out that it worked out fine. Therefore it is not a
matter of login or linked server. I figure it might be the fact that
the sp takes about 15 min to execute. I have tried to set the
..cmdTimeout = 15000. Is there a way to set the connection time also?

.......and timeout problem it was!

(MyBase.cmdTimeout = 15000)
