I am currently learning ASP.Net and am having problems with my SQL Server database. I am using the ASP.NET Configuration Provider tab to setup AspNetSqlProvider as the provider but i get the error 'Could not establish a connection to the database.' So I then went to the Aspnet_regsql.exe tool to install the database elements on my local PC. I use Windows Authentication to connect and enter the server name and <default> database but it fails with error 'Unable to connect to SQL Server database'. But i can logon to the SQL Server 2005 using the same user. Can anyone point me in the right direction please.
I think this might be a good place to ask the following question.
I am writing the error handling code for my data access layer for a web application. I am using the Enterprise Library Data Access Application Block. Although this supports generic database connections, I realized that I need to handle errors specific to each database type. Microsoft SQL is the only database type I am using for now, so I am using a try...catch (SqlException e).
In testing my code, I intentionally changed the instance name in web.config to a name that does not exist. I get the very popular error 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified. This is returned as a SqlException, but the SqlError.Number property is set to -1.
Am I getting "-1" because the provider hasn't actually connected to SQL yet, so it doesn't have an actual SQL error number? Can I assume that (SqlError.Number == -1) is always a fatal, provider-level connection exception? Will the provider ever use another SqlError.Number of its own? Or do all numbers besides -1 come from the SQL sysmessages table?. Is there a comprehensive list of what exceptions might be raised by the SqlClient provider, including #26?
The reason for all the questions is that in a web application, I want to prevent the end-user from seeing the "real" exception if it has to do with configuration errors. However, maybe there are other errors that the user should see and handle? It's hard to know without a full list of SqlClient provider errors, along with the SqlError.Number that each error maps to.
Recently I installed the .NET data provider for Teradata. In a regular C# application I can add the namespace, "using Teradata.Client.Provider;" to connect to this data provider directly without going though ODBC or OLD DB so I know it works.
However, when I open Reporting Services (new project -> Business Intelligence Projects) I do not see how to add the Teradata .NET provider. I only see the same standard data types as before. I have searched and I do not see how to add the Teradata .NET provider to the available "Type" list when you click €śAdd New Data Source€? to your report. Thanks!

We just changed the dev environment to sqlagent. From then we were unable to see the reports on the report server because:
An error has occurred during report processing.
Cannot create a connection to data source 'IHRSDataSource'.

this error is cropping up.
To Resolve this issue, we checked the Surface Area Configuration and also checked the Reporting Service Configuration . There seem to be no problem and everything looks ok.

I am new to dotnet. I tried connecting to the database MS SQL Server 2000. I gave the code like, the one below, in form load event,
SqlDataReader dr = null;
SqlConnection myConnection = new SqlConnection("Data Source=IP;Initial Catalog=name;User Id=uid;Password=pwd;");
myConnection.Open();
myConnection.Close();
But I could not connect. The error message highlights the line myConnection.Open() and displays the error

It tries connecting to SQL Server 2005. There is no SQL Server 2005 in that system. There is only SQL Server 2000.
I have the aspx code in my local system and the database in another machine.
Could Someone please help me out in solving this problem.
I realised this has been done to death, and so much information out there but I am still in a quandry.
I have had to rebuild my computer.
This is what I did
XP machine using SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition using Windows Authentication NZ6(MSSQLSERVER)
straight default install all the way
unfortunately when ready to run reports from my instance(computer) I received the error as in provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server
thought I had it all okayed but obviously something not right
so ended up unistalling then - did the following:
Load SQL Server from disc1 and start install failed on alter Counter Registry key error fixed this from KB article (known error that can happen) restarted Went to Windows Update check IIS is installed - tick is on - IIS - admin tools - make sure asp2 is associated - yes ok Then back to install sql server - there is no instance set up yet Disk 2 and setup .exe
All ok on Reporting Services, Analysis etc.
But once again all seems fine but still getting the error:
connection is all fine in Management Studio - eg I can see tables etc connection is all fine in Business Intelligence - eg I can preview my reports I then can deploy up to - NZ6 open NZ6 eports report is there fine - but just errors
some simple little tick that I have not done!!
I seem to have checked and rechecked everything and obviously doing another re-install does not seem a logical step from here. I will continue to check but if someone jump in and advise please would be great.
I am creating a web site using Visual Studio 2008 & trying to connect to database on SQL Server 2000. My test connection is successful but while debugging the page I am getting this error : " provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server "
Solutions recommended for this were start running the SQL browser instance and enable Namespipes in Sqlserver configuration manager.Did both.. but nothing worked.
I made a Web page, and it works perfect on my local machine, everything is OK, until I uloaded page to the server, it reports this error:

any help would be appreciated......could I run this with cscript.exe (in the WoW64 folder) in through cmd.exe?

Hi there, I am trying to use the new ListView control in VS2008 in an ASP.Net app. My problem starts already with the datasource. I drag and drop a SqlDataSource and select Microsoft SQL Server Compact 3.5 (.NET Framework Data Provider for Microsoft SQL Server Compact 3.5) I can connect to the database and test the query in the wizard (I do not need to use a password??) This is the webconfig entry <add name="ConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server Compact Editionv3.5SamplesNorthwind.sdf" providerName="Microsoft.SqlServerCe.Client.3.5"/> I add the following line in the page load event AppDomain.CurrentDomain.SetData("SQLServerCompactEditionUnderWebHosting", true); However I get the error message that the data provider cannot be found and it might not be installed. I added the reference and also gave the folder above ASP.NET full access rights. Anyone else encountered this problem. It is quiet strange? Thanks a lot for your help. Cheers, Chris
I created a membership database on my local computer. DB is SQL Server 2005. I created create sripts for that database and created this database in a SQL Server 2000 instance on another box.As soon as I changed my web.config file to point to the new database, I got this error below. What is causing it?The 'System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider' requires a database schema compatible with schema version '1'. However, the current database schema is not compatible with this version. You may need to either install a compatible schema with aspnet_regsql.exe (available in the framework installation directory), or upgrade the provider to a newer version.Do I have to create a local Membership database in a SQL 2000 instance, script it out and then create in the other box?Thanks
Is it possible to import "IBM DB2 UDB for iSeries .NET data provider" into Reporting Services 2005? I tried to do it but was unsuccessful. I'm attempting to access data on our IBM i-Series(AS/400) and I need to pass parameters in my datasets. I appreciate any assistance you can give me.
I am new to SSIS but I am learning fast. Any help is greatly appreciated.
I have written a custom log provider derived from LogProviderBase. I want to programmtically add the custom log provider to my package, but when I try this:
myPackage.LogProviders.Add("ACustomLogProvider");
I get the following exception:
"The log provider type "ACustomLogProvider" specified for log provider "{..GUID..}" is not recognized as a valid log provider type. This error occurs when an attempt is made to create a log provider for unknown log provider type. Verify the spelling in the log provider type name".
I have followed the instructions in BOL and as suggested in this forum, adding the DtsLogProvider attribute:
This also gives me the same exception "The log provider type ""{..the actual GUID for ACustomLogProvider..}" specified for log provider "{..a different GUID..}" is not recognized as a valid log provider type....
My questions are: Is it possible to add a custom log provider programmtically or must it be done through the SSIS Designer?
Must I deploy my custom log provider class for it to work programmatically? (I had perhaps wrongly assumed I would not have to deploy if I don't want it to show up in the SSIS Designer).
I would prefer to use a custom log provider instead of just logging within the SSIS event handlers because I can override the OnPostExecute, etc. but I cannot (can I?) override the specific event handlers like PackageStart, PackageEnd, etc because they are not exposed through DTSEvents.
I have an ODBC connection setup for Oralce RDB. This works fine in say MSAccess. Now I would like to add a SQL Server Linked Server to this ODBC driver (it is for RDB not regular Oracle), but I am not able to get this to work. What is the Provider String and Location / Catalog for using this type of ODBC? I setup DSN as 'name', Provider String as 'UID=user;PWD=pass;' and it seems it tries to connect but gives an error. "%SQL-F-SCHNOTDEF, Schema USER is not defined"
Well, I hope, after my endless search in the web... maybe, somebody can help me here.I'm passing a application to a web-based application, therefore I have to use ADO.net to access a sql server DB. But the performance is extremly poor!!!!Just to compare: with the normal application or with the SQL Query Analyzer, the query needs about 2 seconds. Well, by using ado.net, it's about 200 seconds......!!!!Of course, the query is quite long. But the difference is extrem... too extrem for using the same query....I already tried a lot... actually everything I found on the web. What is really strange is that neither the processor nor the memory is fully used... And the web server use more of the cpu power than the sql server itself (the 2 server are still on my machine where I'm programming). So, could it be that the problem is by filling up the dataset with the sqladapter or something similar?Thx for your help!!
I am new to SQL server so apologies if this is a stupid question.
I have a website built and hosted by another company, with SQL server back end data. They don't want to analyse the data but I do. I am familiar with SQL and have SQL server express running on my laptop.
So I was thinking I could get them to send me the data from the server (it will be less than 1GB I imagine), and I could analyse it myself.
So my questions are:
will this work?
and what do I ask them to send me? Is it just a couple of files they have to copy and send me? Or is it more complicated than that?
Oracle recently released Oracle Data Provider for .NET (ODP .NET) 10.2.0.2.20. It happened on August 1, 2006. Oracle claims that its software is compliant with Microsoft ADO.NET 2.0 and €ś€¦more flexible, faster, and more stable€¦.€?. On top of it Oracle introduced many new features €ś€¦ not available from other .NET drivers€¦€?.
I decided to give it a shot and try in SSIS. I installed ODP.NET on my machine and it works just fine in PL/SQL Developer
Next, I opened Data Source Wizard in BIDS for SSIS project. I see Oracle Data Provider for .NET option is enlisted under .NET Providers node on a tree. But when I select it, I am getting an error dialog:
Failed to find or load the registered .Net Framework Data Provider.
