Can I Access MSDE On A Remote Machine With Enterprise Manager?
Sep 22, 2007
We just installed an application, WhatsUpGold, to monitor our servers. Management won't let me host that on my primary SQL box. So, we are using MSDE on the local machine (call that box my_netmon).
I can access the db with very basic functionality using osql while on the my_netmon machine. I've added my domain user account as a System Admin using the following commands.
exec sp_grantlogin @name
go
exec sp_addsrvrolemember @name, 'sysadmin'
But when I go to the my_sql machine and try to attach to it with Enterprise Manager I get an error that the server does not exist.
What gives??? Is it just not possible, or am I missing something here?
My goal is to just be able to see the data stored in the MSDE db. Write views, etc...
I am using MSDE enterprise manager and when I downloaded it, I cannot log onto the SQL Server, which is on my computer, I used the server name defined in the SQL Server Service manager, and it cannot connect. I was trying to set the conection up with the ODBC manager, although I am not even sure if this is the right way. Someone please help me out.
I have just installed (new clean install) of MSDE 3a. On another machine I have enterprise manager, and I thought I would be able to access it, but when I try to register it in EM it gives me the following error: SERVERNAME - SQL Server does not exist or access denied, Connection Open(Connect(). I have done this in the past with no problem. Did I forget a parameter on the install of 3a to allow other machines to access or do I have some other security issue?
I am a complete sql newbie! For the life of me I can't figure out how to get Enterprise Manager to connect with MSDE. Something about mixed mode or tcp/ip settings? But no one's ever really clear on how to do these things. I've uninstalled MSDE until I can get more info. I just need a quick walk-through on how to install msde to work with EM. This is what I used when MSDE requested a strong password: setup INSTANCENAME="InstanceName" SECURITYMODE=SQL SAPWD="AStrongSAPwd" Is this correct? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
I just upgraded for MDSE 1 (came with VB 6 Pro and inculded Enterprise Manager) to MSDE 2000. After the upgrade, Enterprise Manager was removed. Is there an Enterprise Manager availble for MSDE 2000, or a similar tool out there?
Hi guys, I don't own a copy of Enterprise Manager and I need to remotely restore a database on my local machine to my hosted machine, can you guys recommend an application that can do remote restores?
Or is there a way to convert a Database into a long set of Transact SQL statements that I can run on the remote server (ala MySQL's MySQLDump)?
Recently had to rebuild our SQLServer installation from scratch! major pain!! We had a remote server running a replicated version of the internal database system for the website. We also have a SQL DB hosted with a new ISP which is in test mode. All managed via EM.
Re-installed software, upgaded tp SP3, new MDAC. Set up the references for the two external DB's with the Client Network Utility. In EM set up a connection to DB on the new ISP, works perfectly, tried on the old DB and get 'SQL Server is not running or access denied' error message.
I confirmed the server is running, as its our live site. Cant connect using Query Analyser. I can ping the adress successfully. I've created new user logings that mach on both machines/servers, still no luck!
Can anyone suggest what the problem is/might be or how to fix... I'm flat out of ideas!

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
I was just trying out Microsoft SQL Server 2000. I created a sample application which reads in 2 values from a textbox and writes it into a databse. This application works fine on my computer and the values are written to the database (In the connection string, I give my IP address as the datasource so that anyone on the internet can hit this database). However, when I copy this application to another computer and try to run it, it gives me an error "SQL Server does not exist or access is denied." I know this is a minor problem with some setting, but I haven't been able to find the solution on the internet. Can someone whose worked with Microsoft SQL Server 2000 please help me out.
Hi guys, I want to give someone read only permission to our SQL server so they can log in and look at the database structure and query a few tables. I've set up the user but the problem is that when I connect in SQL server remotley, it shows all the other DB's on the server even though it is restricting access to them. Can these other DB's be hidden so that only the DB the user has access to shows up?
I've searched around google & here and can't find a solution.
I can connect to my database via a connection string on the web server but cannot connect via Enterprise Manager or just by ODBC connection on my local machine.
I can ping the server fine and switched off my XP firewall & my router firewall, port 1433 is also open.
Someone has tested this from another machine and it works fine (cheers).
I have a user who has created several SQL7 databases and uses a VB app which schedules jobs (under the sa account) on the SQL server. How can I allow this user to view scheduled jobs on the server ? I don't want to give him too many priviledges.
I am running an SAP installation on clustered DELL poweredge 1850's with a shared scsi disk system. I am running Windows 2000 sp4 with sql 2000 sp4. I am trying to restore a database from a .bak file on a clustered disk. When I attempt to access the disk through enterprise manager it is not there. I only get access to the E: drive (which is clustered as well)
Our DBA has installed reporting services on a server and now in order to access the report manager, one has to be an Admin on that Server. I am guessing that there is a mistake in the configuration of Reporting Services. Usually it should allow anybody who was added to the roles in the properties section of the Report Manager, right? I have also added the users to the DB..
Also I am using Windows Authentication to access Report Catalog items (Reporting Services is installed on Server2) from a web Application(deployed on Server1) and displaying the report using report viewer. For some reason, server1 has to be in an Admin role on Server2 to access the report catalog/report. This is kinda strange for me as I don't want everybody to be an Admin on Server2. Can anybody please point in the right direction?
We currently have the problem, that all our machines are produced with the same name and afterwards the name is changed. So we have the problem that the checksum key for the MSDE isn't valid anymore. As MSDE can only be installed from unattended mode so I can’t rerun setup and fix the problem. Does anyone know a solution for this problem ?? A program recalculating the cheksum ??
On one of our machines, all of the SQL Server 2000components except for the main Server component (SQL Servercore) itself were installed (Management tools, etc) a while agoand everything was running fine. Now I go and add/install theServer component and then Service Pack 3a.It seems that Service Manager won't start up (I get an hourglass cursor)and now I find that Enterprise Manager won't run as well. No errormessages appeared and I don't think I saw anything unusual inthe log file.However, I can use Enterprise Manager on a differentmachine and connect to the database (so the databaseitself seems to be running).Any suggestions as to what the problem might be and how tofix it? I like to see if I can repair this without havingto do a reinstall.Thanks.PF
IF someone can assist me. Everytime I load up enterprise manager the service manager turns off. And the enterprise manager can't connect to the local database. But everytime i turn it back on and try to connect again it shuts it off and around and around we go. Help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I have installed msde on a 98 machine and so far I have no problem getting the msde running. However, when I run my application, which tries to connect to the msde, it gives me two errors --
1.) Method "OpenConnection" of object "_CurrentProject" failed
2.) Couldn't find the database on the server. Object failed.
I have checked and the database name is correct. I have also installed MDAC 2.8 on that machine.
I am running out of ideas and hope that maybe somebody in the forum has seem this problem before and may be able to give me a hand.
Can an individual computer be configured contain both a SQL Serverinstance & an MSDE instance?Our software we charge separate costs depending if they are running ona MSDE or SQL Server edition, and if they already have SQL Serverrunning (which they may have installed for some other application), canwe install our MSDE instance on the same machine?And on the flip side, if they already have a machine that has an MSDEinstance, can the SQL Server install be done over top of that withoutaffecting the MSDE?Thanks for any help,GregJoin Bytes!
Is it possible to run MSDE and Pervasive SQL on the same machine ? If possible but not recommended I'd really appreciate the reasons why it should not be done. If not possible I'd also really appreciate hearing why.
