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.
Jan 22, 2008
My site works fine in VWD2008 express, but I get this error when I try to use it on my live website.
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.
According to this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/914277 I am supposed to:
1.
Click Start, point to Programs, point to Microsoft SQL Server 2005, point to Configuration Tools, and then click SQL Server Surface Area Configuration.
Ok, there is no such program in this folder. The only thing in there is "SQL Server Error and Usage Reporting"...
The other thing I am greatly concerned with is this: All is want is for my webpages to be able to access my database for user authentication. I DO NOT want to grant the internet rights to remote connect to my database.
I get the following error and have been trying to figure out why I keep getting it. Initially, I had placed my project under wwwroot folder and ran it under IIS and it gave this error. Then I moved it to my local C drive and same thing. I am sharing this project with two other co-workers and all our config files and code files are same...they don't get this error but I do. I checked that SQL Server Client Network Utility has TCP/IP and the 'Named Pipes' enabled. I thought maybe I have setting in the Visual Studio 2005 that I'm not aware of that's causing this problem...it can't be the server since my co-workers aren't having this error and can't be anything in the code since all of us are sharing this project through vss. I dont' think using different version of .net framework can create this error. I changed the version from 2.0 to use 1.1x and it gave same error... Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi,I need some help. I am getting this error after I complete the asp.net register control and click on the continue button. It crashed when it tries to get it calls this Profile property((string)(this.GetPropertyValue("Address1")));When I look at the stack, it is coming from my ProfileWrapper class which adds user address, city, etc.. from a class which inherits fromSystem.Web.Profile.ProfileBase. From the stack, it is calling the System.Web.Profile and crashed when it tries to open a connection atSystem.Data.ProviderBase.DbConnectionPool.GetConnection(DbConnection owningObject). I already migrated all aspnet_user, aspnet_roles, etc.. and don't get any connection errors. It is only when I try to get the profile data. This works on my pc, but throws an error on my lunarpage website.Any help is greatly appreciated.Thanks,AJAn error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.

When my default.aspx page loads I get this error for the connection to my SQL 2005 DB. 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: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) I have already gone to Surface Area Configuration to ensure that Remoting with both Named Pipes or TCP/IP is enabled and it's set to both for remoting.I verified that my local account has access to the DB.Not sure what else to check.

I'm about to go absolutely nuts. I've tried so many things including:
1) Of course making sure Remote connections and both TCP/IP and named pipes are enabled for SQL 2005 2) Verified my connection string works. I even tested it in Enterprise Library using the tool and it connects successfully via windows authentication 3) Made sure of course my logged in user is a member of the administrator group and that my user in SQL 2005 logins has db_owner and full rights to the DB I am connecting to. I also made sure the NT AUTHORITY as well as the 3 sql service users have db_owner rights as well as the adminstrator in the SQL Server logins all have db_owner to the DB 4) Started the SQL Server Browser service, SQL Server DB engine, and SQL Server Agent 5) Made sure my site is setup right in IIS 7. I checked the connection string in there as well as it shows up in IIS7 in one of the sections. Using Windows authentication and it is enabled for my site 6) Tried running the .net site using both localhost (IIS) and also tried using the Visual Studio built-in web server. Both give this message still

An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this I use Microsoft Windows Vista Home Professional I have already installed to my computer Microsoft SQL Server 2005 and SQL Serves Express. I used to be successful to connect to the SQL Server but now I CAN NOT.
Not: I try to run SQL Server 2005 but I can not, even I logged on to my computer with an administrator rights. On the other hand I can start and stop the SQL Server Express easily.
As a result, how can I solve this problem. Thanks in advance. Bilgin Kılıç Additional Details

Please help a teacher at wit's end. I have created a site using Microsoft Expression Web. The site includes a create user page on which I placed the create user control (wizard), and a login page (which houses a login control) . When the site sits on my local host all works well and I render the pages on my browser locally: the first time a user is created the aspnetdb.mdf file is automatically created into my app_data folder, the new user information is saved and can be accessed on the login page etc. However, when I upload to my hosting server. (godaddy) I can navigate to each of these pages seamlessly but when I try to use the controls on either page I get similar errors:

(provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) I am not a programmer, and am just beginning to learn asp.net. However, I need to solve this problem. GoDaddy cannot help me, they say, because this is inside of EW and that is a MS problem. They have on the several ocassions I have contacted them, suggested compatibility issues (since they use SQL server 2003 and 2008 not 2005, or suggest that I need to script something to ensure that the .mdf file is recognized by their server, or that it was a database problem and that I may need a database programmer. They did tell me that it is important to note that the databases are hosted outside their server. I have not found anything in the EW side of this equation since most forums and support etc, deal more with the design part, than the online publishing part. I have tried to find a programmer locally that could help me, and have yet to find one. I am so close to being able to publish a site that meets our small school's needs, but cannot jump this one hurdle. Can anyone tell me what I can do? Any help will be appreciated.

Hello, I'm having trouble getting my Sql connections working 100%. My pages usually connect ok, but sometimes for a reason I can't understand I get connection errors. I always use the connection string in web.config so there's only one connection string for the whole project. I can be on one page, do nothing and just press F5, usually it works but sometimes it doesn't. It just throws this error. I've checked the surface area configuration and tcp/ip is of course allowed remotely. The weird thing is that it only happens sometimes, stops working for like 2-5 minutes and then starts working again. It might be some firewall related problem, but if so, what ports do Sql need to use tcp/ip connections? This might fix it but I don't think so, since it runs just fine on a Win2003 Server with the same firewall. On my local development machine (Vista) I get this problem. Below is the complete error message: "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) " Thanks beforehand for any and all replies!

I recently re-formated my personal server and installed SQL Server 2005 on it instead of 2000 which I previously used. Now, I have imported the databases to the new SQL Server 2005, but I seem to get the following error when trying to access the database (from my asp.net page)
I've googled and searched the forum, without any luck. Now I was hoping for someone to answer this question, or perhaps guide me in the right direction.
Note: I've tried 5-6 different solutions that I found on the net, in vain.

I use ASP.NET 2.0 and VS.NET 2005. I have the following expression in my code: string connectionString = "server='localhost'; user id='sa'; password=''; Database='Northwind'"; When I executed the code I have the following error message: "An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.

Thanks, Andy.
I am getting problem with remote login to the sql instance.
In machine Sql 2008R2 is installed as default later 2014 installed as named instance. Both TCP/IP, shared memory, namedpipes are enabled for both named & default instances. For the default instance I can used the remote connections but the named instance is not allowing remote connections.
Hi, I had an old web application created during asp.net 1.1 and it have a connection problem with the sql server 2005 when it is mirgrated to a new webserver with dotnet framework 2.0 platform. I have enabled the remote access(TCP/IP and named pipes) in sql server 2005, did all the neccessary things, check whether the TCP/IP is enabled, named pipe is enabled... I created another web application using VS 2005. The database connection works perfectly well.This are the connectionString from the old web application.<appSettings> <add key="ConnectionString" value="Server=127.0.0.1;Database=somedb;User id=user; Password=somepassword; Trusted_Connection=False; POOLING=FALSE"/></appSettings> Thankyou in advance!

I'm having a big problem with a SQL 2K5 cluster (using standard edition). I can get onto the box and connect to the sql server locally fine. However when I try to connect remotely I get errors.
Let's call the two sides of the cluster, CL1 and CL2 and the "virtual server" is CL3. Locally I can connect without any problem at all to the SQL server, but I just can't connect to it from any remote machine.
The server in question is instance name LMS_PRD running on CL3, port 10051. TCP/IP is definitely enabled for local and remote connections (I have checked this in the SQL server surface area configuration). I can connect locally without any problem. Also, locally, if I do,
telnet CL3 10051
it connects fine
From a SQL 2000 box - when I try to connect from sql query analyzer, I get
"Unable to connect to server LMS_PRD Server Msg 17 ... SQL server does not exist or access denied"
Client network utility shows server alias - LMS_PRD, TCP/IP, CL3LMS_PRD,10051
[I can connect to other SQL 2005 servers OK from this same server using this same method]
On this box, when I do telnet CL3 10051 , I get "Connecting to CL3...Could not open a connection to host on port 10051 : Connect failed"
[When I do a similar one for another SQL 2005 box, "telnet U01 10051", it connects fine]
From another SQL 2005 box - when I try to register the server, I get
"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: TCP provider, error 0 - No connection could be made because thew target machine actively refused it.) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 10061)"
IN the SQL native client configuration it shows alias name - CL3LMS_PRD, server=CL3LMS_PRD, protocol tcp, parameters 10051
Again if I do telnet CL3 10051, I get the error above.
From this same box I can register another SQL 2005 server without any problem and do the telnet to it OK
Just to emphasise:
(a) The SQL server configuration manager shows that TCP/IP is enabled, and that 10051 is the port (in IPALL, TCP port). Also I have checked the SQL server errorlog - it is definitely using 10051 as the port.
(b) The SQL server surface area configuration shows under local and remote connections using both TCP/IP and named pipes selected (I've tried both this and the using tcp/ip only option)
