Database Deadlocks While Listing Remote Refs
Symptoms
Polling Bitbucket Server repositories for changes on projects often fails with a 500 error. This corresponds to a MS SQL Server database deadlock report in the Bitbucket Server logs:
2013-08-15 23:54:44,053 ERROR [http-bio-80-exec-431] 1434x26560x2 10.1.65.60 "GET /mvc/error500 HTTP/1.1" c.a.s.i.web.ErrorPageController There was an unhandled exception loading [/scm/project/acme.git/info/refs]

The snapshot settings have not been applied when creating the database.
Resolution
Stop Bitbucket Server and apply the following settings to your database:
ALTER DATABASE $(DATABASE) SET ALLOW_SNAPSHOT_ISOLATION ON
GO
ALTER DATABASE $(DATABASE) SET READ_COMMITTED_SNAPSHOT ON
GO
SET NOCOUNT OFF
GOSetting the READ_COMMITTED_SNAPSHOT will wait until all active connections to the database are closed. Other active connections will block the query from running and it will appear as if the query is hung.
