Error: Transaction Log is Full

You try to complete an action on the Intranet and you get an error that says

“The transaction log for database <name> is full.” 

The SQL Recovery mode should be set to ‘Simple’.  If it's not, and you haven't completed regular full backups, you will see this message.  

To correct this, ensure your Recovery mode is set to simple, as follows:

1. Open SQL Management Studio and connect to your database
2. Right click on the database name (IntranetConnections) and select Properties
3. Click Options
4. Set your Recovery Model to Simple
5. Click OK
6. Restart your database
