There are a few references to this error on MS Support - I would review these and see if they fit your situation/edition/version.

The articles also mention log entries in the SQL Server logs - do you get any further info there?

@Cyborg... In a single server env then yes it will be offline, but if you are using some high availability options (i.e. clustering), then it is possible to do a live update.

Hi all! I found the problem, actually there was a job that was scheduled to run every 30 min to kill all the session that are 30 min old, so my session become a victim for that job. Thanks for your response!

That is dangerous. Someone once decided to use a sledgehammer to crack a nut, when they really should have spent some time finding why the nut wouldn't crack.

Can I ask why you have such a job?

@TimothyAWiseman Maybe the job exists simply to teach every developer to write efficient queries: either it runs in less then 30 minutes or it is killed :)
