Cannot Connect Remotely To SQLExpress Via SQL Server Management Studio Express
Oct 31, 2007
Hi all,
I'm having a little trouble connecting to a SQLExpress instance on a remote domain using SQL Server Management Studio Express.
I've read that by default the program is set up locally only, so have edited the Surface Area Configuration. It only gives me the option to edit 'Services and Connections' on the localhost, but have edited the Remote Connections to use TCP/IP and Named Pipes.
In the Management Studio, I enter the server name, and login credentials. On the Connection Properties tab I changed the network protocol to TCP/IP though everytime I attempt to connect I get the following error message:
I've seen the following error posted when people try to connect to their server via their applications but didn't see anyone having problems when trying to connect with SQL Server Management Studio Express. Am I missing something here? This is the error:<<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)(Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 2)>>The server is not remote so I don't see why I need to enable remote connection. I am also using the default connection settings.
On my home machine without permanent network connections enabled, I cannot get the Management Studio connect to the database server. Always get this error:
Cannot connect ot MPLIAMSQLEXPRESS
Additional Information:
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, erro: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)(Microsoft SQL Server)
I have used the SQL Surface Area Configuration Tool to reset the defaults to allow remote connections, stopped and restarted the server, but still get the same message.
Hi, I hope you can help.I have configured a Windows 2003 web server and SQL 2005 Server (on same box) to successfully allow remote connections and to allow access via SQL Server Management Studio Express 2005.The problem I have is that I want to restrict access to the databases on the server via the Management Studio to specific databases e.g. 1 database user "sees" only 1 database.I can configure it so that the user's remote access permissions do not allow access to other databases but they can still "see" the database listed in the Management Studio explorer.I can also configure it so that the users cannot see all the databases (by disabling View All Databases on SQL Server), but this means that they cannot not see their own database which they have permissions for.Is it impossible to have the desired behaviour of only displaying the database which the remote user accessing has permissions for and hiding all other databases?I have MSN'd,Googled and Yahoo'd this one to no avail :(Many thanksFergus
Please, I use tyhe Visual Studion 2005 SQL Server Express Edition Management Studio (SMSE) to create the backend database and trying to set the connectionstring from the web config file, but what I continue to get as an error is that "<computername>/ASPNET" login failed for that user, cannot login to the Management Studio. This is my expression from the web config file <connectionStrings><clear /><add name="LocalSqlServer" connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS; Database=<dbname>;User Instance=true; Integrated Security=true" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" /> </connectionStrings> Is there anything I do wrong? Please, I need to solve this and it's urgent.Thanks Kayode Banjo Programmer
When I want to connect to a local report server on as shown in the "Reporting Services Tools" tutorial (http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-au/library/aa337424.aspx), the SSMSE does not show the option "Reporting Services" in the "Server type" drop down list in the "Connect to server" dialog.
The tutorial says "In the Server type list, select Reporting Services. If Reporting Services is not on the list, it is not installed."
This must be wrong as the SSCM clearly shows an installed and running "SQL Server Reporting Service (...)".
Also if i call the webinterface (http://localhost/reports/) a page loads that says "SQL Server Reporting Services Home" with some options. And here something is not correct too. The "contents" tab of the report manager says "There are no items in Home."
I started to work on some basic tutorials using the sql server business development studio, and everything works fine. I can create reports, which derive data from the AdventureWorks db properly.
Can anyone tell me the adequate steps to fix the SSMSE connection problem and the webinterface view problem?
Here are some additional informations:
I use WinXP SP2, which makes the IIS version 5.1
SQL server is 2005 express with advanced features
and i installed the management toolkit, and the AdventureWorks db.
Installation history is as follows:
.NET framework 2.0 + VS2005 professional edition was installed
1. installed ss2005express+advanced features, on a named instance. worked fine. I did not install the SSMSE at this point, as i knew it is included in the toolkit too. 2. configured the reporting services through the "reporting services configuration" tool. worked fine. 3. installed the management tool kit. worked fine. 4. installed the AdventureWorks db. installed, but was not attached automaticaly to the database engine. 5. attached the AdventureWorks db to the database engine manually. worked fine, can be viewed and accessed properly.
So there I am. I have no clue what went wrong.
A last hint that makes me think is this: In the SSCM the sql server an the sql server reporting services have different instance ids (MSSQL.1 and MSSQL.2 respectively).
Thanks in advance for your solutions and hints, that is - for your time :-) art
I am unable to connect to my database on a VPS server using server management studio express. I am able to ping the server. can connect to a local database but i have the same issue as others
Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server
have set the server so that it will allow remote connections and reset the server just to make sure that it has been implemented.
when i use osql in command prompt to make a test connection it tells me this
[SQL Native Client]Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server [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.
on this forum it says to perform a ping and and an a ping a- to my server which does work.
Have been working on this for 3 days and can't figure it out. Even had a guy in New Zealand who is usually my messiah of SQL and he can't figure it out so I'll be impressed if someone knows the answer.
I will buy a crate of beer for the person who solves this for me as this problem is costing me money! Maybe even 2 if done by end of tomorrow 6pm GMT!
If you don't want the beers, i will be more than happy to give a virtual pat on the back. :-)
If you need any more info, i will be watching this thread like a hawk so i'll happily answer any questions that you may have if i can.
I am trying to connect to another computer in my local network which has Windows XP installed. It has SQL server 2000. I get an error message 'Time out period elapsed' when i try to connect to SQL server 2000 thru SQL Server Management Studio Express' Please guide.
Can I connect to remote SQL 2005 server through SQL Server Management Studio Express? I always get a error code 18456 when I try to connect to SQL 2005 server through SQL Server Management Studio Express. I'm sure I enter correct username and password!
I have a sql server 2005 remotely, need to connect from client using sql management studio. I am unable to connect from one of the client machine and able to connect from different machine.
The tcp/ip, named pipes and sql browser is enabled in (sscm)server and windows firewall is off in client.
I am getting (provider: sql network interfaces, error 26 - error locating server/instance specified)
I recently installed SQL Server Management Studio Express, and used it to connect remotely to SQL Server 2005 Express. The first connect worked fine. It was suggested to me to update ODBC drivers to connect to the server using Microsoft Access. In doing so, I found what I thought were Studio Express updates and tried to install them. From then on, I could no longer access the server. The error was a nebulous one that indicated that is could not find the server.
I verified that the the server was set up correctly by installing Studio Express on another machine, and it connected fine.
I uninstalled and reinstalled. When I ran it, I did not get the "first time use" routine, and still could not connect. I reinstalled MDAC with my Windows XP sp2 disk and reinstalling Studio Express, and still could not connect.
I started a thread - http://forums.microsoft.com/msdn/ShowPost.aspx?postid=2557611&siteid=1 - on SQL Server Express foram, and they verified that the server was set up correctly. They suggested that the client network protocol stack on your computer is broken. They suggested I post here to seek help in fixing it.
I have an ASP.NET 2.0 website running on a windows server 2003 - sql express management studio installed. Today I had to make some changes in my database, add some columns, and so on...
So I put the app_offline.htm into the root of the web application, so the IIS unloaded the application domain, attached it in the sql management studio, made the changes I had to do and detached the db. Ok - then I removed the app_offline.html from the root of the application and looked at my internet explorer telling me that the user NT_network... cannot login...
What did I do wrong? I attached it, detached it, and at once something went wrong...
I tried everything, at least I copied the whole application to another directory and.... It worked fine again!
So, can anybody help me, I don`t know what I did wrong or rather how to make changes in my sql express for the future, not having trouble with any security issues...
I have to deal with a private network of laptops which are all equiped with preinstalled "Windows XP home"
I've installed SQLExpress on one of these, but I cannot connect on it from the rest of the laptops. (I've successfuly done this with "Windows XP profesional" though, and local connections work fine as well).
I've already setup the SQLExpress to accept conections throuigh TCP/IP but I can not think of something else. (Security comes to mind, but I do not know how to resolve it on "Windows XP Home").
I'm using a Windows XP Home laptop to connect to a network of one of my customers. The administrator of the customer has given me a username and password for a VPN connection. I've got the VPN connection working and I can ping the SQL Express server.
This server is using Windows Authentication. For the users of my VB application we have added a group to the Active Directory and added this group as a user to the SQL Express Server. This works and the users can access the database from within the application. The SQL Express Server allows remote connections and the browser service is also running.
I would like to use the SQL management Studio Express on my laptop to access the remote SQL Express server and manage the database files. To do this I first connect to the remote LAN using VPN and add the address of the SQL EXpress server in the field 'Server name' of the 'Connect to server' screen. The authentication field is set to Windows Authentication. However the username is greyed out and states the login for the SQL Express server on my laptop: laptopusername. How can I correct this?
I don't know whether the username of the VPN connection is in the Active Directory. Should this be the case and should this user also be added to the login/user of the SQL Express server? And how do I get the Management Studio to connect to the remote server? Could XP Home be the bottleneck as it cannot logon to a domain?
im using sql server 2005 express for my vb.net projects but i can't connect to it using SQL Server Management Studio Express or through my vb.net code. I got a error message: An error has occourred while estabishing 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. I already enabled remote connections as suggested by this site http://www.programmingado.net/a-395/SQL-Server-2005-Express-and-remote-connection.aspx. Made sure that SQL Server and SQL Browser services are running. But I still cant connect.
Hi I am trying to restore a remote database hosted on mysql server, using "SQL Server Management Studio Express".
Now I can connect to the server, and see the databases as well. However, when I select restore option and want to specify the source using the Source for restore, and select From device, I can only select file from the remote machine, and don't get to select the file from my local file system.
And the problem is that I don't have easy access to the machine hosting the MS sql server. So is there any way I can select my backup file from local machine. If this cannot be done using SQL Server Management Studio, can you please suggest other relates programs.
I'd greatly appreciate any suggestion/info. Many thanks,
Hi all,I'm having a big problem here. I can't seem to connect to a database of MSSQL Server 2005... Here is what I've did:1. Under the Server Explorer>Data Connections. Right click and choose "Add Connection..."2. Data Source was "Microsoft SQL Server Database File". Click OK.3. I browse to the database in the MSSQL.2/MSSQL/Data folder.4. Click on the "Advanced" button, and change the default DataSource from .SQLEXPRESS to .MSSQLSERVER. Click OK5. Received this error: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 setting SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 25 - Connection string is not valid) Only .SQEXPRESS that I was able to connect to... i've tried the solution from Microsoft, opened SQL Server 2005 Surface Area Configuration and enabled "Local and remote connections", checked the option "Using both TCP/IP and named pipes" but it didn't help. This is frustrating because I can't get the Membership provider, login to work on my host. Please help. Thank you very much,Kenny.
I've just bought a Virtual Private Server Account because I want to host a number of different ASP.NET sites, each backed by their own SQL database. I've downloaded SQLEXPRE.EXE and SQLServer2005_SSMEE-x64.msi to the server and installed the database engine and Management Studio Express on the VPS. My problem is that I cannot access the SQLEXPRESS on my server from my local machine. The Management Studio Express cannot get logged in. I've used "Surface Area Configuration Manager" to allow "Local and remote connections" using TCP/IP only. I've used SQL Server Configuration Manager" to enable the TCP/IP protocol. After making these changes I've stopped and started the SQL server - and even rebooted the machine. I've created a login "Remote User" for this access. I've added sqlservr.exe as an exception to the firewall. What else do I need to do? Is there a simpleton's guide to completing this task?
I have read all of the posts regarding this subject as well as 3"Dummies" guides and I keep having the same problems. I have a verysimple multi-user application that has to hit a database. Wecuerrently have this system deployed and it is working fine on adomain based network. We are scaling back and the network we will beusing is now a workgroup not a domain.It should be simple. I have XP boxes (clients) trying to hit the SQLServer Express database on a Windows Server 2003 machine. It is aclosed network so security is not an issue. I am trying to make thisthing wide open. All I want is for the user to be logged in on hisclient machine, run the application, and access/update the databasewithout having to re-authenticate to the SQL server. I want windowsto handle all of the authentication between the XP machines and theServer 2003 machine.Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
I have a database in my "App_Data" folder of my visual studio project. I can view it fine in Visual Studio's built-in tools for managing a database attached to a solution. However i recently started playing around with the SQL Server Management Studio Express program. When i attach my database to Management Studio, and try to run my program it crashes. I think it might be a permissions error?!? When i detatch it and reattach it in visual studio it runs fine again. Any suggestions? ThanksJason
I have recently installed the SQL Server Management Studio Express but I do not find Management Tools in order to create scheduled backups and shrinking of the databases. I was under the impression that this should be included in the Management Studio. I use the SQL 2005 Express for smaller customers who run the SQL on a desktop unit. I need a way to backup the data to a server machine for backup purposes. I have uninstalled and reinstalled to no avail.
I am currently looged into the OS (windows xp pro,belongs to domian ABC) as user vdm. I have connected to VPN for a client and would now like to connect to their sql server database using sql server management studio. This sql server installation is on a remote domain called XYZ.
When I open sql server studio and select windows authentication, my local domain ABC is selected and greyed out...I would like to change this to XYZ domain...how to achieve this ?
Cannot open database "Prism_Project_db" requested by the login. The login failed. Login failed for user 'R-LAPTOPRyan Holdren'.Yet I can connect using sql server management studio, no problem:
Server Type: Database Engine Server: R-Laptop Authentication: Windows Authentication
which connects as "R-LAPTOPRyan Holdren".
I do not understand how the login could work for one application and not for another. Can anyone help me get this working?

I have installed 2005 in a new machine with reporting services and configured the reporting services fine. I see the virtual directories fine in IIS but when I try connecting to the report server using IE (http://localhost/reports or http://servername/reports) i get page cannot be displayed errro. When I try connecting using management studio I get the following error
TITLE: Connect to Server ------------------------------ Cannot connect to BLRPTSQL03T. ------------------------------ ADDITIONAL INFORMATION: The underlying connection was closed: An unexpected error occurred on a receive. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.UI.RSClient) ------------------------------ Unable to read data from the transport connection: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host. (System) ------------------------------ An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host (System) ------------------------------ BUTTONS: OK ------------------------------
I donot see any errors in the event logs or the report server logs. Any help with this issue greatly appreciated
