Hello,
Is it better to use a DSN connection or using a connection string Set Connection = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Which is easier to use and more reliable?
Also could I have all the connection info on one page and then just include it with a include statment everytime I need to query the database??
Thank you,
Rich
Dear Sir,
Can you please let me know as to how many users can MSSQL support at one time on a single database say test.

Hi All,
I have a mssql server that is located somewhere and i can only able to access it with my pc mssql when VPN is connected. Is there any solution/configuration that can let me to access the it without connecting to the VPN?
Please advice.
Using mssql_connect($server, $user, $password) results in different ways the 'php server'
connects to the sql server.
On a workstation with WinXPProf, php uses the $user and $password to login and uses the
sql server authentication. Running the same script from a W2K3 server results in an error
because in this case the 'php server' tries to connect to the sql server using windows
authentication. (I have checked this difference with wireshark)
The problem has nothing to do with the sql server settings (mixed mode) / firewalls /
php.ini- file settings or versions of ntwdblib.dll because these are the same for both
connections. The problem looks more fundamental, probably due to settings in windows or
the iis version running on the server and the workstation.
Does anyone has a clue how to force php to use sql server authentication.

I'm an absolute beginner in asp/asp.net. You have been warned.
I managed to run and compile asp.net using win xp home edition, via Visual Web builder 2005 express edition. I managed to use its tools to create a test database and table and put values in it.
Now I wish to connect to this db using my aspx page. While fiddling around I finally able to drag the "table" icon on the database pane into my aspx page and it generate a code snippet below:
<div> <asp:GridView ID="GridView1" runat="server" AutoGenerateColumns="False" DataSourceID="SqlDataSource1" EmptyDataText="There are no data records to display."> <Columns> <asp:BoundField DataField="US_ID" HeaderText="User id" SortExpression="US_ID" /> <asp:BoundField DataField="US_NAME" HeaderText="USer Name" SortExpression="US_NAME" /> </Columns> </asp:GridView> <asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:nepConnectionString1 %>" ProviderName="<%$ ConnectionStrings:nepConnectionString1.ProviderName %>" SelectCommand="SELECT [US_ID], [US_NAME] FROM [USER]"> </asp:SqlDataSource> </div>
When previewed in the browser, it seems to show the content of the db table.
What I want to know is a sample coding on how to connect to the db the usual way (initialise the connection string, prepare and execute the query, fetch the content of resultset). Based on the code snippets above (it contains the info about the db name, table name and the column name I'm using), can anyone guide me by providing the lines of codes that retrieve the data?
Basically the first thing I would like to do is fetching the data to be compared with user name and password submission after they click on login, among other basic stuff, which doesn't require bells and whistles like <gridviews> and other contraptions provided.
And another thing, would the connection string or other parameters be any different from my computer if I were to upload my aspx page including the mssql db file into my webhosting to be tested live?
Thanks for anyone out there willing to provide some hand-holding here!
Hi,
I wanted to know if there is a way to connect to my MSSQL without having to setup a datasource in the control panel.
Perferably I want to locate the database within my perl code instead. I don't want to have to setup a datasource each time I need a different database. Perhaps there is a way to pass the name of the database along with the username and password through the command line.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

Please bare with me as I do not have much knowledge in this area with MSSQL.
I have installed MSSQL 2000 Developer and I have setup a database which I am able to connect to and work fine with from the actual server MSSQL is installed on.
The problem comes in when i try to connect to that same database from a different remote server. It will not connect to the DB from this remote server but I know all the connection information is correct so its something on the MSSQL DB server causing this and not on this remote server.
Someone I know has had this problem and has fixed it but they wont tell me how. All I know is they said something about manually opening the ports on the MSSQL server and he also said when you set it to dynamicly determine the port that MSSQL is listening on it errored out. however if you set it staticly to 1433 it worked fine.
Ive also installed SP4 in attempt to fix this but no luck with that either. And I can also get the same exact remote server to connect to completely different DB server without issues.
If anyone can please help walk me through this I would be greatly appreciate and I am also willing to pay some money if it will make my life easier.
Hi,
I installed Sqlexpress server 2005 and am able to connect to the server using the sqlexpress manager.
The connection parameters are:
server: 127.0.0.1 (This is an alias name pointing to TMD03SQLEXPRESS)
username:sa
password:test
mode: sql server and windows authentication mode
TCP/IP : enabled and listening on port number 1433.
But I am not able to connect to the server using PHP's mssql_connect function.
I tried various combinations like
mssql_connect("127.0.0.1","sa","test")
mssql_connect("local","sa","test")
mssql_connect("localhost","sa","test")
mssql_connect("TMD03SQLEXPRESS","sa","test")
mssql_connect("127.0.0.1,1433","sa","test")
but none of them works. I also tried OSQL and SQLCMD and they don't work either. They give me the following error message.
[SQL Native Client]Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL
Server [2].
[SQL Native Client]Login timeout expired
[SQL Native Client]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.
Can anyone please let me know what am doing wrong here?

I am new to ms SQL. I only have the use of the Enterprise Manager.
Creating tables I understand. However I am confused on how to add data to
a table or view the data in a table. Can this be done through Enterprise Manager? If I am adding a large amount of data do I have to use the query window. This seems like a tedious method. In Access yo have a form basically pop up where you can type in the record sets. Any advice would be appreciated! Sincerely,

Would any body be able to suggest the best way switch a Lotus .nsf file to Ms SQL database or even to an Access?
I have a .nsh file that I am able to see the contents of but not the database structure, and rather then rebuilding the database and manually inserting the content I would like to import all the information from an old .nsf file that appears to have restriction on it.

View 1 Replies View RelatedHello:
I am supporting a mssql 6.5, sp 4 application.
We have set up an user acceptance server with a database that is the same as production. However, I have been told that this database and server may be used for applying fixes rather than user acceptance.
To avoid confusion over which database is on which server, it might be a good idea to rename the database. I am not sure if this can be done un der mssql 6.5?
1)Can I rename a database?
2)If so, how can I do so?
Which system tables would I use to update?
Any information you can furnish will be appreciated. THanks.

David writes "Dear sir,
I've installed VS.NET 2005 Professional many times and find that the MS SQL Express 2005 is running.
My ambition is to log into this server so that I can convert my MySQL database into it. What is the default;

Port
Username
Password
What tool is provided so that I might execute my schema to create a database in this server. This 'schema' will obviously have many tables inside. Most SQL products provide some type of utility program where one can create, edit, delete databases and an adminstration program. I see nothing of yours in my Programs -> MS SQL Server 2005 -> SQL Computer Manager.

Hello, another question from a newbie to mssql.Is there a way of allowing access to database only by providing username andpassword (disabling trusted connection and preventing administrator toaccess database through enterprise manager or otherwise without supplyingusername and password)?What I would like is that my application upon instalation creates databasewith appropriate tables (already done this) and somehow solely creates andmanages user list and passwords so that there is no access to database otherthrough application.

Has anyone had a problem transfering a database to a server.
This is the first time I have done this.
I have a site and sqldatabase hosted by a hosting company and I am supposed to transfer my database
This is what I'm doing
From the Start Menu, select "Programs" -> "Microsoft SQL Server" -> "Import and Export Data" then click "Next".
In the "Server" field, type in the Name or IP of the source server (your server), choose "Use SQL Server Authentication," type in your username and password, choose your database from the "Database" field, click "Next".
Note: You can also use Windows Authentication if the SQL server is a local server.
In the "Server" field, type in the hostname of the DiscountASP SQL Server (this is listed in your hosting control panel), choose "Use SQL Server Authentication," type in your DiscountASP database username and password (this was sent in your database order confirmation email), choose your database from the "Database" field, click "Next".
Choose "Copy objects…", click "Next".
Uncheck Use Default Option.
Click Options, uncheck "Copy Database users and database roles", "Copy SQL Server logins", "Copy object-level Permissions".
Leave next window as is, click "Next".
Click "Finish".
It seems to work ok untill it gets to about 90% done then a message says "There has been an error" and gives no more info.

Hello:
I am running an application on mssql 6.5, sp4.
We are working on using a database as a publisher and a remote database as a subscriber for one replication in Canada.
WE havw just been told that another application on a different server(publisher/ distribution) wants to replication to our database as a subscriber.
We also will need(as a publisher/distribution) to replication to a second subscriber database after we completely test the first replication to Canada.
Therefore my questions are:
1) Can a database on a local database -- our database -- on one server be a publisher and subscriber to ther different databases?
2)has any one been involved with replication on a database used both as a publisher and subscriber to different replications requirements?
What are the pitfalls aside from the scheduling conflicts?
3) In terms of database space requirements, how much disk space extra do we need? What guidelines should we use? For each table as an article, assuming we are doing the full table, do we add 100% more space or what?
4) Any other pitfalls we should be aware of?
Thanks.
