Hi , I just put my files up on a web server. I can view my aspx pages..but when I try to login to the website I get the following; An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) Can you help? I can understand that it cannot find the specified instance of sql server, however I don't remember ever configuring it look to at a specific sql server. When i created the site in web dev express edition and added the login controls and set the asp config tool to use internet security it created the database itself and so I didn't have to put a connection string in. I also cannot see a connection string in tthe web.config file. The aspnetdb.mdf file is there on the server. is this something i need to configure with the hosting company or do i set it in my webconfig file. Thanks
Hi all In our office we have simple Network (LAN) and for some reason in each workgroup Computer in this network we have installed SQL-Server 2000. So far everything was ok but recently i noticed that my co-workers can easily access my Sql Server Instance through their Enterprise manager installed on their computers and then they can open my tables,view...and manipulate other objects. for better illustration i have created a Flash Movie from this process , please check the following Link : http://www.Parsisoftco.com/movie/Sql/Sql.htm How can i prevent others from doing so? Any help greatly Appreciated. Kind Regards.
I'm having trouble accessing SQL2005 Standard Edition as a secondinstance of SQL Server where the first instance is SQL 2000 EnterpriseEdition. I installed SQL 2005 as a named instance "SQL2005". Theserver is running Windows 2000 SP4 ON A 32-Bit machine. When I look inServices I see the SQL Server (SQL2005), SQL Server Agent (SQL2005)services there. I went into SQL Server Configuration manager anddisabled the named pipes protocol and only have TCP/IP and by defaultShared Memory enabled to rule out that named pipes is causing theproblem. In SQL Server Configuration Manager I created an alias"computername$SQL2005" and was able to connect to database engine"computernameSQL2005" through SQL Server Management Studio WHILE ONTHAT BOX.But when trying to access the 2005 instance from another server(64-bit Windows 2003 SP1) I'm having trouble. On the 64-bit machine Idisabled the named pipes protocol for both "SQL Native ClientConfiguration (32-bit)" and "SQL Native Client Configuration". Under32-bit I created the alias "machinename$SQL2005" to point to the IPaddress of the 32-bit machine. In SQL Server Management Studio whentrying to connect to the database engine "machinename$SQL2005" itdefaults to the SQL 2000 instance. How do I access the SQL2005instance from a remote server?Any help would be appreciated.Mike
Hello,I just uploaded a new SQL database to my hosting server.I am using SQL 2005 and SQL Server Management Studio.How can I remotely access the SQL database, on my hosting server, to create or alter tables and queries, using SQL Server Management Studio? Thank You,Miguel
In SQL 2000, we have SQL Client which is used to access remote sql servers. What is there in SQL server 2005? I just want to install a client and not a server on my local boxes to access remote server.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks Sachin

I'm having an issue accessing a newly installed SSRS instance. When I browse to the URL it states that "User 'BLAH' does not have required permissions. Verify that sufficient permissions have been granted and Windows User Account Control (UAC) restrictions have been addressed.".
I've gone through various forum posts and followed steps such as running IE as an admin and disabling UAC but I'm unable to get past this unless I run IE as an admin.
I've downloaded a copy of Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express from MS. Can this product be used to query an SQL database at a web site. Conversely, is there a command line utility for running SELECT statement queries on my remote web site database?
dear friend, i would like to write a stored procedure which is able to pick up data from remote server and store it in the local server is it possible to mention the server name in the select command waiting for reply ashish bhatnagar
I have a MS SQL 2000 db. It cannot be remotely accessed by other websites or by another MS SQL db (I have tried everything to make it do so).
I am trying to figure out how I can use the data I have in a table to populate an asp page on another server/website not related to mine.
I was told an XML page and using a JS script I could make the remote site read from my db. Not knowing XML, I am not sure if this is the correct way of trying to populate an asp page with data from my MS SQL table on my server to a webpage on another server.
I do not want to give this person a connection script, or any kind of potential access to my db, but I do want the pages I develop for him to retrieve data I have in a certain table on my db without having to create a whole new db on his site. I want to control the content, add more content to both his and my website at the same time, so one table would be my best bet if I can get his site connected to my db table.
These will not be read/write pages at all, just read only. They will not be "search" pages either, just data populated on a page from my db table.
Is this possible? Ideas, thoughts, and suggestions welcome. Thank you.
HiWe had an sbs 2003 with isa 2000 server. We wre able to access aremote sql server (hosted at our web host) just fine. We replaced theserver with a new sbs 2003 r2 with isa 2004 server and even though Ihave opened port 1433 in isa 2004 we can't access the remote sqlserver anymore. Where can I look for any blocks?Many ThanksRegards
I have an SQL server running on a Windows 2003 server in my LAN. I can connect to the SQL server using the enterprise manager. However, when I try connect to it from an ASP.NET application it fails and I get the following error:
"SQL Server does not exist or access denied."
I noticed that the user that runs the application (ComputerNameASPNET) does not have access to the SQL server. When I try to add this user I get the following error:
Windows NT or user group ComputerNameASPNET not found...
we have sql 2005 standard edition. i was trying ( unsuccessfully ) to configure RAS on server 2003 to allow the server to authentificate vpn requests. i don't know how but the next day people started complaining about their mapped network drives being disconnected, and now no one can connect to the database via the network, eventhough they still have access to the server, and the network drives were remapped.
I access remote MSSQL Server2005 (SS2005) databse over internet through SQL Server Management Studio (SSMS) in order to fine tune ASP.NET website using remote SS2005 database.
Today I could not launch my SSMS http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=2616564&SiteID=1
Is it possible that remote server machine or SS2005 damaged my SSMS. Can it be due to some incompatibilities, virus (I have Norton Antivirus locally) or something else?
I do not have much experience with using SS2005 over internet. Can you share with me possible practical stories or theory on it?
hi every one. i am a new user of asp.net 2.0 using C# code and i am facing a problem in accessing a SQL Server2005 database file in the remote computer. i have connected two pc with peer to peer connection and trying to add a databse using the "Add connection" option from the visual studio 2005. in the add connection dialog box it is showing me the remote server and it was supposed to show all the database in that SQL Server when i select one. but when i am choosing the server name it was not showing me anything. by the way i have configuered the surface area for "both TCP/IP and named pipes" and both the pc's server browser is turned on. is it the right way to access a database file from a remote pc or not?? please send me a good solution to do this things and try to explain the codes with example. waiting for response....plz send me the solution.. as soon as possible
I am using XP_CMDSHELL to run 2 Windows commands (from a SQL 2005 SP2 server) that access files on a remote server (called webserver). The two commands are:
1. cscript.exe \webserverwwwrootEur_SaveProductImages.vbs 2. dir \webserverwwwroot Up until very recently this worked fine. Now I am getting Access Is Denied errors:
For #1: Microsoft (R) Windows Script Host Version 5.6 Copyright (C) Microsoft Corporation 1996-2001. All rights reserved. CScript Error: Loading script "\webserverwwwrootEur_SaveProductImages.vbs" failed (Access is denied. ).
For #2: Access is denied.
This happens if the above commands are run through a job, or directly with Query Analyzer as SA.
I understand that XP_CMDSHELL commands are run in the security context of the SQL Server startup account. The SQL Server startup account is called SQLServer and this account exists on both webserver and the database server. On both servers the username & password are identical and the user is in the local Administrators group. The two servers are in a workgroup.
Things I have tried (with no effect):
1. Restarted the servers 2. Deleted and recreated the SQLServer login on both servers 3. Changed the startup account for SQL Server through the SQL Server Configuration Manager to another account and back to SQLServer.
The most revealing tests are these:
1. If I log into the database server myself using the SQLServer account I can run the above commands in a Command Prompt with no problem
2. I installed SQL 2005 Express SP2 on webserver using the same startup account (SQLServer). If I run the same XP_CMDSHELL commands as above but accessing files on the database server, the commands work! So, an XP_CMDSHELL command run under SQL Express using the local SQLServer account to access a remote server works, but an XP_CMDSHELL command run under SQL Server using a local SQLServer account (that is supposedly identical to the same named account on the other server) does not work !!?!?!?
It is almost as if XP_CMDSHELL commands run under SQL Server are NOT using the SQLServer startup account, but using some other weaker account. How can I tell if this is true?
How can I get this back working (as it was a week ago). The only thing I can think that happened on the servers to cause this is the installation of Windows Updates.
Hi all,I need to gain access to a remote SQL Server 2000 storing my data.The remote SQL machine can only be accessed via an internet connection,that is - it is not part of my network.I know Enterprise Manager can do the job, but EM only comes bundled inMS SQL Server, which is not installed on the client machine.Please let me know which other (preferably free) tools can performsuch remote access.Thanks,Gilad Haimov

Can anyone tell me what are the necessary steps if I want to connect to a Remote SqlExpress Instance ? I am using Visual Studio 2005. When I tried to connect it says that the remote server does not allow remote connection. I have enabled all the protocols from Sql Server Configuration manager and disable the firewall. But it still not working. Pls Help me. Thank You.
I am trying to connect to an instance of SQL Express through a vpn, simply using the SQL Management Studio, providing the server ip address x.x.x.xMSSQLSERVER, and using SQL authentication login. I receive the following message:
Cannot connect to <server>, etc., etc.
error 25: - Connection string is not valid
Does anyone understand this? I am trying to connect through the SQL Server Management interface, not with a client program that would utilize a connection string. Is there something which prevents Management Studio from working over a vpn?
To connect, I am using SQL authentication, and have verified the login and password locally on the target pc. The SQL browser service is running on the target pc, and I can telnet to the port which it is monitoring, through the same vpn connection. Remote connections are enabled for TCP/IP in the Surface Area configuration on the target pc.
Not sure if this is the right place for my question but here goes anyway.
I have an instance of SQL Server 2005 installed on my DEV PC. A colleague of mine wants to access my server from his machine which connected to the same network.
I logged on to SSMS and added him as a new login.
Will he be able to connect to it now or do I have to do more than just that?
I currently develop/maintain VB 05' apps for PDA's and desktops. I've got a scanner app that scans labels to build/transmit orders via an HTTP byte stream. I'm currently building an inventory app that resides at the remote client (windows not web) and can eventually connect to my SQL Server @ corp. At this point SQL 2005 endpoints work on the internal network but fail to resolve remotely. I've read about connecting to a SQL Server via HTTP with ip specs embedded in the connect string but havnt been able to find an example. Outside of creating a VPN for connectivity, can anyone recommend connection ideas for my scenario? Is it true that endpoints are only recommended for intranet consumption?
I recent installed a named instance of SSRS 2005 on a remote server. The server has a side by side install of SSRS 2000 and SSRS 2005, with the SSRS 2005 being a named instance. The server also has SSL and MS Sharepoint Portal Server installed.
When I try and connect to the SSRS 2005 instance with my client install of Mangement Studio, I get the error message:
"The underlying connection was closed: Could not establish a trust relationship for the SSL/TLS secure channel. (System.Web.Services)
Additional Information: The remote certificate is invalid according to the validation procedure. (System)."
Obviously, this is a SLL issue, but, not being a security guru, I have no clue on how to fix this. I do know the certificate is valid, not expired and properly working. Both installs of SSRS are set up using the SSL certificate. Also, I am not connecting to SSIS with Management Studio, as I heard there is a bug connecting to both SSRS and SSIS at the same time.
I am attempting something that I have done many times before; however, in this instance it continues to fail.
I am trying to connect Management Studio to an instance of SQL Server 2005 Express over a VPN. The Management Studio connect dialog always fails with Error 26.
I have:
Enabled the instance for remote connections €“ both TCP/IP and Named Pipes
Ensured that the instance is enabled for TCP/IP on the VPN address (10.2.1.1) and on port 1433
Ensured that the instance is running
Ensured that SQL Browser is running
Ensured that ports 1433 (TCP) and 1434 (UDP) are open on the firewall for inbound traffic
Rebooted the server following this configuration to ensure that the instance services are refreshed
Tried to connect from three separate clients (albeit on the same remote network)
Disabled the firewall to ensure no further complications (as a last resort)
I have this exact same setup functioning on a separate server.
There is an additional backstory to this problem; however, I will not complicate the scenario with it now. If you feel you can help then I can elaborate further on the server€™s history.
Hello all, I'm a bit new to SQL Server and T-SQL (my background is in DB2), so hoping you can help me with this. I'm writing a T-SQL script that's hopefully going to scan a bunch of SQL server instances and record the results. We've got a mix of SQL2K and SQL2K5 instances, and for part of my script I only want to run something if the remote instance is SQL2K.
I'd tested this on my local PC with several instances created and it worked fine. When I try and run it for instances located on other servers it barfs :eek: . From what I've found from looking up the error message it looks like I've got myself a loopback -- but I don't know how to get around it - any ideas please?
INSERT INTO @tempdata (scratch) EXEC ('[' + @server + '].master.dbo.sp_executesql N''SELECT SERVERPROPERTY(''''ProductVersion'''')''') SELECT @version = convert(varchar(100),scratch) from @tempdata DELETE FROM @tempdata IF @debug>0 BEGIN PRINT @server + ' is running SQL Server version: ' + @VERSION END IF charindex('8.00',@version) > 0 BEGIN PRINT 'SQL2K-only code goes here' END
The error I get is: OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "SQLSERVER_INSTANCE" returned message "The transaction manager has disabled its support for remote/network transactions.". Msg 7391, Level 16, State 2, Line 1 The operation could not be performed because OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "SQLSERVER_INSTANCE" was unable to begin a distributed transaction.
I get this error running from a SQL2K5 instance against both SQL2K or SQL2K5
We have 3x instances of SQL Server 2012 installed on a single remote server - there's the default MSSQLSERVER instance, then INSTANCE01 and INSTANCE02. I can remotely connect to the default MSSQLSERVER instance through SSMS, but I cannot connect to either of the additional named instances (INSTANCE01 or INSTANCE02).Â
For example, if I try to connect to "sql.domain.com", I can successfully access the default instance on the remote server. If I try to connect to "sql.domain.comINSTANCE01", I get an error stating
"A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server".
However - if I try to connect to "sql.domain.comINSTANCE01, 49301" (where 49301 is the TCP Port for the TCP/IP Protocol for this SQL Server instance), I am able to successfully connect.
This leads me to think that there's a communication issue with the SQL Server Browser service running on the remote SQL Server and my workstation.Â
The following items have been verified:
SQL Server Browser is running on the remote SQL ServerWindows Firewall has been disabled on the SQL ServerTCP Ports 1433, 1434, 1954, and 49301 have been opened up on the remote destination's firewallUDP Port 1434 has been opened up on the remote destination's firewall.
I was trying to send a message on a different instance in the network using service broker. I have created the endpoint and route both the side. I could see that the messages are in the transmission_queue in the sender side with no error in the status.
What could be the reason.
I am doing the following: CREATE ROUTE inst02 WITH SERVICE_NAME = 'SERVICE2', ADDRESS = 'tcp://10.14.43.149:2341'
in the send script i am using this: BEGIN DIALOG CONVERSATION @dialog_handle FROM SERVICE [SERVICE1] TO SERVICE 'SERVICE2' ON CONTRACT [MainContract] WITH ENCRYPTION = OFF ;
in the sending side if i change the endpoint's authentication as windows kerberos , then i get thefollowing error in the transmission queue:
"Connection handshake failed. An OS call failed: (8009030e) 0x8009030e(No credentials are available in the security package). State 66."
I also have given access to the remote user on this endpoint(on the recever side) using this : GRANT CONNECT ON ENDPOINT::Endpoint_test to paras
I am executing the sending side send script using the same user wich has access to the remote endpoint.
I have installed a SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition instance with SSIS on Window Server 2003 x64. From my PC, I am able to connect to the Integration Services on the server using Windows Authentication but not with a local SQL login - and the option to change authentication methods is greyed out.
Is it possible to remotely connect to SSIS using a SQL login rather than a Windows login? If so, any ideas or references for configuring it as such?
I try to connect from a pc to a SQL Server on another pc. Both pc’s are in a workgroup. I want to connect from a Windows Forms application to a named instance on the other computer. By now I have been able to connect from one pc to SQL Server on the other with tcp:smurfin, 52782.
I want to be able to use servernameinstancename (instead of portnumber) to make a connection in a Windows Forms application.
I’ve checked / tried te following:
•In the properties of the instance, tab Connections, the option Allow Remote Connections is enabled •In Configuration Manager: TCP is enabled •The service SQL Server Browser is started •On the tab IPAddresses, in the section IPAll, there is NO portnumber for TCP Port. And TCP Dynamic Ports has the nummer 52782 •I have created un inbound rule for port 52782 and also for 1434 (SQL Server Browser). And to be on the save side: a rule for 1433 as well. •Restarted the service
If I run the following code in SQL Server, that same port number (52782) is returned:
EXEC xp_ReadErrorLog 0, 1, N'Server is listening on', N'any', NULL, NULL, 'DESC' GO SELECT local_tcp_port FROM sys.dm_exec_connections WHERE session_id = @@SPID
ProblemWhen Remote Desktop to my main office machine, and when trying toconnect to SQL Express, I was becoming increasingly frustrated with thefollowing error:Error: 'Failed to generate a user instance of SQL Server due to afailure in starting the process for the user instance. The connectionwill be closed.'What is the solution?Solutions: ( pick any of the 3)1. Obtain and apply the patch http://support.microsoft.com/?id=8966132. Wait for the next Windows Service pack3.Of course if you can not get the patch, you can always do this (Note:You must have WinVnc server running in your remote computer)1. In the remote desktop session, reboot your computer.Click Start->Windows Security->Shutdown->Restart.Wait for some time to get machine up.2. Use your vncviewer to login to your remote computer. You can chooseto do all work via VNC or go to next step.3. Use remote desktop to login (this automatically closes the winvncsession).There you go, You did not create a remote session, but reused yourlocal session.
I am trying to set up a ODBC connection to a remote database using the ODBC data source administrator. I am getting an error message complaining of an invalid instance(). The database I am trying to connect to does have a default instance and a named instance. Do I need to specify the instance name somewhere in the connection settings? I tried specifying the server name as <Remote computer IP Address>/<Instance Name> but this didn't work. Any ideas?
