Hi,

We keep getting a SqlException when we try to either empty the recycle bin or rebuild the database cache. It gets a timeout immediately. It also occurs when we try to create and publish some pages from a custom service we built. We are using version 8.6.0 and our database is an azure sql database. We tried with setting the umbraco connection string to 90 sec without success.

System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException (0x80131904): Lock request time out period exceeded.

The statement has been terminated.
