Can't Get SQL Manager To Connect To Server Instance SQLEXPRESS

Jul 20, 2005

I installed SQL Server Express and SQL Server manager, then tried to start manager. SQL Service is running, but SQL Manager attempt to connect to SQL Server instance times-out even though I correctly identify instance as SQLEXPRESS? Everything seems to be normal - both SQL Server and Manager are on a single Windows  XP home machine. Any suggestions. Thanks

SQLEXPRESS Instance On SQL SErver 2005 Standard Edition

Jan 10, 2007

What happens when you install a SQLEXPRESS instance on a machine that already has SQL Server 2005? Will the SQLEXPRESS still run in the limited mode or will it sense that an full standard version of SQL Server 2005 is already present and just "upgrade" itself?

On the otherhand, how do I "upgade" an existing instance of SQLEXPRESS to a full version of SQL Server 2005 standard edition without uninstalling and installing the standard edition. If I have both the instances then will the SQLEXPRESS be freed from its limits?

Thanks,

Vikram

Cannot Access Local Sql Server With .SQLExpress

Jun 12, 2008

I have SQL Express installed on my machine.  I can access it with MACHINE_NAMESQLExpress but not .SQLExpress Because of this, I cannot add a .mdf to the App_Data folder of one of my projects (I assume) because it says "cannot locate server/instance specified".

SQLExpress, User Instance And Detach

Feb 17, 2006

Basically I need to know how to detach a db from a user instance of SQL Express from inside a VS2005 windows forms application.

The application is project oriented and the design calls for each project to be stored in its own separate .mdf file. When the user wants to switch projects the application will detach the current database and attach a different one, containing the data for the desired project.

I have this working fine with the default (.SQLEXPRESS) db instance, but I am having a problem getting the code to work with a SQL Express user instance (also part of the specification).

I am using the SMO library to do the Detach, and this works fine with the default instance, but for the user instance I am unable to connect to the necessary (user) instance of the db server.

I have tried selecting the instance name from dm_os_child_instances on the default instance and using the dynamically generated instance name to create the Server object. I get a good instance name, but when I create the Server object, the connection fails. I have also tried issuing "sp_detach_db" on the user instance, but this fails because the db is in use.

Any ideas would be greatly appreciated...

(Problem) Named Instance As SQLEXPRESS?

Apr 13, 2007

What if I give my named instance as SQLEXPRESS? I read that SQLEXPRESS

would be the name of the DEFAULT instance if no named instance is given.

In such a situation how can I find out if its a named or the default one?

Can I Connect To SQLExpress Instance Using (local)

Feb 19, 2007

Hello,

I am using the following connection string to connect to SQL Server 2005 Express Edition installed on my local PC.
string sqlstr = "Server=(local);Database=MyDB;User ID=sa;Password=sa;Trusted_Connection=False";

And it gives me the following error. The string works fine in computer with SQL Server 2000 instance but fails with 2005. The string also fails for "Server = localhost".
However the string works very fine if I use the name of Server 2005 i.e ./SQLExpress

===================================

Cannot connect to (local).

===================================

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) (.Net SqlClient Data Provider)

------------------------------
Error Number: 2
Severity: 20
State: 0


------------------------------

 

Now the main problem is that, of course I could use a named instance, but since I am embedding the Connection String in a dll file so that any user can use it to connect it to the local instance of the SQL Server 2005 installed in his/her computer, I need to use "server = localhost". Doesn't SQL 2005 support this. If yes, where could i find option to enable it?

I have enabled every option available in surface area configuration for SQL Server 2005, but nothing seems to help out. I even use local as well as remote connections using both TCP/IP and named pipes.
Can nyone help me out?

I am installing SQL 2005 Express on several laptops (IBM Thinkpads and Dell latitudes) and I've noticed that doing the exact came configuration options with the exact same file, the IBM thinkpads just take the Machine name for SQL Server, while the Dells take MachinenameSQLEXPRESS. I am wondering how I can get it to just take the machine name on the Dells.

SqlExpress Instance In Connection String Instead Of Full Sql 2005

Sep 27, 2006

Hello, I had started my project with the express edition, then I switched to the pro one. The problem is that in my webconfig I still have  .SQLEXPRESS and I don't know how to modify that to use the full version of Sql server. <add name="MyConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|MyDataBase.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" /> When I look at the surface area manager I can see that I have 2 instances running : MSSQLSERVER and SQLEXPRESS.When starting Sql Server Management Studio I can connect to 2 servers: NEWDELL and NEWDELLSQLEXPRESS.And when I try to replace SQLEXPRESS by MSSQLSERVER in the connectionstring, then it doesn't connect.I remember having lost connection already when playing with all these tools, so I pay attention now ! That's why any help would be really appreciated ! Thank you.

The Configuration Of The AdminConnectionTCP Protocol In The SQL Instance SQLEXPRESS Is Not Valid

Mar 4, 2006

Hello,

I am getting the following warning in the Application Event Log:

The configuration of the AdminConnectionTCP protocol in the SQL instance SQLEXPRESS is not valid.

The warning is logged by the SQLBrowser service.

This is happening on Windows 2003 server with SQL Server Express 2005. On the same machine SQL Server 2000 is installed.

I am currently unable to connect from remote clients to the instance of SQL Express and I believe it has to do with this warning (I've tried all the usual remote connection troubleshooting without success - enabled protocols, SQL Browser Service running, there is no firewall on the server, I disabled firewall on the client when trying to connect).

Does anyone know how to resolve this issue?

If you need additional information please let me know.

SQL 2012 :: Connecting To Local Server Instance From Access

Aug 4, 2014

First time I've tried doing this - I have SQL Server 2012 installed on my local machine with an instance running (which was set up under an administrator account, not mine, which has no admin rights), and I'm trying to create a linked table from Access (also on the local machine) to a table on the server.

I tried creating a DSN using Windows Authentication, using the server name which is the same as my computer name, and got the error "Error 18452, Login failed. The login is from an untrusted domain and cannot be used with Windows authentication".

I then created a SQL authentication user ID and password, and tried the same thing using that instead, and got "Login failed for user <myusername>"

Is there some particular setting on the local instance I need to change to allow this kind of connection, or do I need to use something other than the server name to connect, such as an IP address? Remember that I have no admin access on this machine so any solution would have to avoid requiring that.

SQL Tools :: Firewall Blocking Access To 2nd Instance Of Server

Jun 19, 2015

I have trying to access a 2nd SQL Server instances running on my WHS 2011 server from my Windows 8.1 Pro client.

The first SQL Server instance I installed is SQL Server 2014 Developer.  This has been in place for many months and access from my client pc is not a problem.  The Developer instance was installed using standard settings so uses TCP port 1433 and I have verified this by checking the firewall rules. This instance name is <SERVERNAME>

As I want to host a personal website on my server I installed SQL Server 2014 Express as a 2nd instance on my WHS 2011 box for website database purposes.  After this installation both instances are accessible via Management Console on the WHS 2011 box. 

The second instance is named as <SERVERNAME>SQLEXPRESS.

However, I am unable to access the SQLEXPRESS instance using Management Console on my client pc.  I know it is a firewall issue as when I turn off the firewall on the WHS 2011 box I can connect successfully.  The errors reported have resulted in my trying many things to resolve the problem but none have worked, e.g.

Use the default SQLEXPRESS instance to listen on all TCP ports (default installation option).  I checked the necessary firewall rules were set up correctly and they were, i.e. UDP ANY and TCP ANY for the SQLEXPRESS sqlservr.exe file.

Change the default SQLEXPRESS instance to list on a specific TCP port, e.g. 19344

Create an ALIAS for the SQLEXPRESS installation

The instance is definitely set up for Remote Access and is not Hidden.

Are there any other firewall rules I need to apply?

Cannot Remotely Access SQL Server Standard Named Instance

Oct 10, 2006

Good Day,

I am creating a SQL Named instance as a testing environment. This instance is on the same physical box as my Development environment, both are SQL 2005 standard edition. From the server in Management Studio, I can load, and interact with both instances. From a remote connection (e.g., my pc) I cannot access the named instance. I am getting the following:


Connect to Server


X Cannot connect to <server><named instance>

Additional Information


An error has occured while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Sever 2006, 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)(Microsoft SQL Server)
I have checked, and rechecked the server settings for this named instance, and remote connections are set to "allow" I have enabled TCPIP and Named Pipes prototocals, and have ensured that my firewall is allowing the "listenting port" for the named instance, and have even tried turning off my XP firewall during testing.
I am sure that I have probably missed something, and have searched the community but only have been able to find resolutions that I have already tried. Is there more?
Thanks in advance for any help and guidance you can provide.

SQL Server Admin 2014 :: Remote Access To Named Instance

Jul 6, 2015

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

Issue While Programmatically Slowly Chaging Dimension.

Dec 12, 2006

Hi,

I am working on Creating an SSIS package to add Slowly Chaging Dimension to the package programmatically.

I have done the following steps:
1. Choosing the connection manager to access the data source that contains the dimension table that you want to update.
You can select from a list of connection managers that the package includes.
2. Choosing the dimension table or view you want to update.
After you select the connection manager, you can select the table or view from the data source.
3. Setting key attributes on columns and map input columns to columns in the dimension table.
You must choose at least one business key column in the dimension table and map it to an input column. Other input columns can be mapped to columns in the dimension table as non-key mappings.
4. Choose the change type for each column.
o Changing attribute overwrites existing values in records.
o Historical attribute creates new records instead of updating existing records.
o Fixed attribute indicates that the column value must not change.
Code://Set the Key Element as part of Creating the SCD Transformation:

instance.SetInputColumnProperty(ID, this.SlowlyChaningDim.InputCollection[0].InputColumnCollection[1].ID, "ColumnType", 1);

//Set one of the ColumnType Properties as Changing Attribute Updates Output

instance.SetInputColumnProperty(ID, this.SlowlyChaningDim.InputCollection[0].InputColumnCollection[15].ID, "ColumnType", 2);

//Set one of the ColumnType Properties as Historical Attributes Updates output.

instance.SetInputColumnProperty(ID, this.SlowlyChaningDim.InputCollection[0].InputColumnCollection[85].ID, "ColumnType", 3);



Now i create an OleDbCommand Transformation to capture "Changing Attribute Updates" (Type-1) output.



this.OledbCommand1 = this.dataflow.ComponentMetaDataCollection.New();

this.OledbCommand1.ComponentClassID = "DTSTransform.OleDBCommand.1";

this.OledbCommand1.Name = "OledbCommand1";

this.OledbCommand1.Description = "ChangingColumnAttribute";



CManagedComponentWrapper oledbinstance = this.OledbCommand1.Instantiate();

oledbinstance.ProvideComponentProperties();



this.OledbCommand1.RuntimeConnectionCollection[0].ConnectionManagerID = package.Connections["OLEDBDestination"].ID;

this.OledbCommand1.RuntimeConnectionCollection[0].ConnectionManager = DtsConvert.ToConnectionManager90(package.Connections["OLEDBDestination"]);

oledbinstance.SetComponentProperty("CommandTimeout", 0);

oledbinstance.SetComponentProperty("DefaultCodePage",1252);



StringBuilder sbquery = new StringBuilder();

sbquery.Append("UPDATE SIRWorkdm..[Engagement] SET [BillingType] = ? WHERE [EngagementId] = ?"); //Here BillingType is the "ChangingColumnAttribute" and EngagementId is the key

oledbinstance.SetComponentProperty("SqlCommand", sbquery.ToString());

---- Need inputs as to how to map the Source and ExternalMetadataColumns.

--------- -------- ------------

this.dataflow.PathCollection.New().AttachPathAndPropagateNotifications(this.SlowlyChaningDim.OutputCollection[3], this.OledbCommand1.InputCollection[0]);





Please advice as to how to proceed further

Thanks,

Sriharsh

Downsizing From SQLExpress To Access

Jan 9, 2008

I have a simple (3 tables) SQL Express database that I would like to downsize to Access, as I am considering removing SQL Express from my machine. I have no need of the extra capabilities of SQL Express; Access will do fine. Presumably I could just reconstruct the tables in Access manually and then populate them from SQL Express (eg. with a C# program), but I wonder if there is an easier (automatic) way?

Seems everyone is going the other way!

Thanks for any suggestions.

Network Access SQLExpress

Jan 16, 2006

I am  trying to access a SQLExpress database on another computer on my LAN.  Using Windows Authentication. I don't really want to go to Mixed Mode authentication as I understand it involves a registry tweak and creating a new user. I am a novice at this.

Getting the following error on running the connection code below:

SQLException was unhandled "Login failed for user 'D37YKC1SGuest'."

No doubt it is a security problem but I am not sure how to get around it.  Any help appreciated.

Connection code:

Dim conn As New SqlClient.SqlConnection

conn.ConnectionString = "Server=D37YKC1SSQLEXPRESS;Integrated Security=True;Database=VBNMDATA"

conn.Open()

Tried the following which is my Windows logon on the other computer (blank password) but same error:

conn.ConnectionString = "Server=D37YKC1SSQLEXPRESS;Integrated Security=True;Database=VBNMDATA; User Id=Geoff; Password="

I have TCP/IP enabled in SQL Express  and the firewall is off.  I can see the server on the other computer with this code:

Private Sub Button1_Click(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button1.Click

' Retrieve the enumerator instance and then the data.

Dim instance As SqlDataSourceEnumerator = _

SqlDataSourceEnumerator.Instance

Dim table As System.Data.DataTable = instance.GetDataSources()

' Display the contents of the table.

DisplayData(table)

End Sub

Private Sub DisplayData(ByVal table As DataTable)

For Each row As DataRow In table.Rows

For Each col As DataColumn In table.Columns

MessageBox.Show(col.ColumnName.ToString & " " & row(col).ToString)

Next

Next

Help:SQLExpress User Instance Fails For Normal User; Works For Administrator

Jan 22, 2008

I'm using the RTM version of Visual Studion 2008 and SQLServer Express.

Logged in as an administrator, I can create a connection to an mdf file and all is well.

As a normal user, attempting to create a connection gives the message "sqlservr.exe has stopped working A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."

I have tried this with UAC turned on and turned off. The result is the same. In Services I can see that SQLEXPRESS is running, but each time I try to connect, I get the "stopped working" message.

For existing database programs that have the .mdf file stored in the project folder, I can run the program in the VS IDE on my XP machine and on my Vista machine as administrator, but not as a normal user.

I'm not looking for a workaround to make this work once, but the cause and solution to the problem. This is for an introductory VB textbook and we must be able to move a database program from one machine to another and make it work. Everything I have read says that SQLExpress should be able to do that.

Can anyone help me with this?

SQLExpress - Remote Access Trouble When Publishing A Site

Sep 12, 2007

Hi all,
I followed this excellent tutorial (from Microsoft) about creating and using a SQLExpress db table internal to your website:
http://www.asp.net/learn/videos/video-08.aspx
and the site I created works just fine - locally. When I publish to my web host provider I get this error:
[SqlException (0x80131904): 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)]
My web host provider supports .NET 2.0 but doesn't support MS SQL Server. But that should matter - right? Because I'm putting the db instance right in the website?
I did a search and followed some of the advice:
I went into the SQL Server Surface Area Config Mgr and set SQLExpress for local and remote connections and rebooted/republished. I also have SQL Server 2005 installed as a separate entity (if that makes a difference).
I still get the above error. This is the connection string from the web.config:
<connectionStrings><add name="ConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|Customers.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
</connectionStrings>And this is the call from the markup:
<asp:SqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:ConnectionString %>"
SelectCommand="SELECT * FROM [Customer]"></asp:SqlDataSource>
Does any know the fix for this? 
Thanking you in advance
Pat

How To Link To An Existing SQLExpress 2005 Table From Access 2003

Nov 22, 2006

I initially created an Access application within Access 2003 which I subsequently migrated to SQLExpress 2005 (Tables only) using Microsoft SQL Migration Assistance for Access 2003 (SSMAA) and continue to use Access 2003 as a front end, this really was easy and worked perfect. Now I added a new table to my SQLExpress DB and need to link to it from my Access application but can not find a way to do so in the same way that the SSMAA does. I need to run the Access 2003 application in share mode from multiple PC in the LAN. If I try linking to the table using an ODBC connection I can only access from the PC where the link was done! Any ideas? THanks in advance.

Connection String For Default Instance Of SQL Server 2005, On A Box Also Running A Named Instance Of SQL Server 2000

Nov 15, 2007

The box I am trying to connect to is running two instances of SQL Server.
There is a SQL Server 2005 instance which is the default. There is a SQL Server 2000 instance which is named 'SQLSERVER'.
 I can connect to the SQL Server 2000 instance no problem:<add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPCSQLSERVER;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" />
However,  I am having trouble connecting to the Default SQL Server 2005 instance. I have tried:
<add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPC;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" />
 but it doesn't work. I have tried explicitly setting SQL Server 2005 to use port 1434 (as SQL Server 2000 is running on port 1433), and then used:
<add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPC,1434;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" />
but this doesn't work either.
 
Am I mssing something here? Any help much appreciated
Thanks...

SQL Server Admin 2014 :: Cannot Connect To Named Instance (2nd Instance) From Local SSMS

Jul 22, 2015

I've two instances(Default, Named[dynamicsFINANCE]) running on SQL server 2014. However, when I try to connect to named instance say (dynamicsFINANCE) using SQL authentication from local SSMS, I get below error message:

A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: -1)

I assigned a static port number to the named instance [dynamicsFINANCE] 1450. I also setup the firewall rule to allow access to Port 1450.

SQL 2012 :: Clustered SSAS Unable To Connect To Named Instance (instance Not Found On Server)

Mar 20, 2014

I have a 3 node cluster on which I have installed SSAS as it's own insntance. I have created this as a named instance and can connect to it by serverinstance if I'm on the server itself. However from my desktop I get the error saying instance was not found on server name.

I have defined an alternate port and setup firewall rules and can connect via server:port but not serverinstance. Prior to making this change SSAS was running on default port of 2383 and I could connect just by servername.

I have read many articles for previous versions saying that clustered SSAS will always use 2383 and that you must connect just using servername. However and this is were it gets strange. I have a 2 node UAT cluster with SSAS setup exactly the same way I've described above and I can connect from my desktop as serverinstance.

Should I be able to connect as serverinstances for a named clustered instance in 2012 ?

Can't Start SQLEXPRESS So That I Can't Install Latest SQLEXPRESS Security Updates.

Mar 13, 2007

I can't start SQLEXPRESS.

The SQL ERRORLOG shows: Error is 3414, Severity 21, State 2 and says: "An error occurred during recovery, preventing the database 'model' (database ID 3) from restarting." Just prior to this, I get a warning: "did not see LP_CKPT_END".

Any thoughts why this might be and how I can fix this?
