Cannot Remotely Connect To SQL2005 Instance On A Cluster

Jan 18, 2008

Hi,

I am trying to remotely connect to a SQL 2005 Instance on a cluster. I see the following error:

No retry on exception System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: 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 enabled TCP/IP , Named Pipes on the node. I have turned off IPSec on the clients as well. I am using the following connection string : "Integrated Security=SSPI;server=servernameinstancename;Pooling=false;database=TrialDB"

Is there something I am missing?

Any pointers will be appreiciated.

thanks.

Problem Using Client Tools To Remotely Connect To A SQL Server Instance On Another PC

Jan 18, 2005

Someone please help me before I loose all of my hair :mad: !!!

I have two machines, a Windows Server 2003 machine running an SQL Server Standard Edition database instance and client tools (Enterprize Manager etc.), and a workstation PC running Windows XP SP2 which has just the SQL Server client tools (not an actual DB instance).

I'm trying to use the Enterprize Manager client tool on my WinXP machine to remotely connect to the server instance on the server PC (via 'New SQL Server Registration' option). Everytime I do this I get the following error message:

Login failed for user 'sa'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server Connection.

Now I've tried using different usernames and passwords. I have login details for my SQL Server set to use Windows Login rather then SQL Server login, so I tried remotely connecting with the username and password for the server PC, tried 'sa' with server password, even tried setting up a new user on the server and logging in from the client with that, no luck. I've opened up correct ports 1433 on both PCs, even disabled the windows firewalls algother. Both server and client have SP3a installed, WinServer2003 has SP1 and XP SP2.

So I'm at a loss to how to remotely connect to my SQL Server. FYI I know the server itself is working fine because I can connect to it using Enterprize Manager/Query Analyser on the local machine. Any ideas? Many thanks for your help!

Unable To Connect Remotely After Upgrading A SQL Instance From Express To Enterprise

Mar 4, 2007

Problem: I upgraded a SQL Server Express instance to SQL Server Enterprise, but I'm unable to connect to the SQL server from any remote machine. Only local connections work -- and I've verified that Remote Connections are allowed in the SQL Surface Confg. utility.

Scenario: Server1 has an SQL Enterprise edition installed as a default installation. SharePoint Server 2007 was installed later, and during that install a SQL Express edition instance was installed which is part of the standard SharePoint install. That Express instance contains all the SharePoint content databases.

So Server1 has SQL instances:
Server1 <default install running Enterprise>
Server1OFFICESERVER <previously running SQL Express, now upgraded to Enterprise>

After upgrading Server1OFFICESERVER to Enterprise, everything seemed to work fine (i.e. SharePoint works fine). However when I try to connect remotely to Server1OFFICESERVER I can't. I've verified through the SQL Surface configuration tool that remote connections are allowed. I've rebooted the server as well. I've tried connecting remotely using various PCs and various applications (e.g. SQL Server Mgmt Studio, Visual Studio, etc.).

Any other ideas to try?

Can't Connect To Local Server Instance MSSQLSERVER In SQL Server Management Studio (SQL2005 Sp2/Vista)

Apr 7, 2007

Can't connect to local server instance MSSQLSERVER in SQL Server Management Studio (SQL2005 sp2/Vista).



SQL Server Configuration Manager reports SQL Server2005 services: SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) Running. This would indicate the name of the SQL server is "MSSQLSERVER" correct? I chose "default" instance during the install and that is the name it gave itself.

I tried connecting to the server using the following for the Server Name: MSSQLSERVER and .MSSQLSERVER neither works.



The only thing that works for my installation is just plain "." (no quotes) and nothing else. Can this be correct because I can't find any reference to this. Thanks.

Trouble Connecting Remotely To Sql2005 From Other Machines.

Sep 20, 2007

New sql2005 install as a named instance and having trouble connecting from remote machines.

I noticed on our other servers that the "Public" server role is listed in permissions (right-click over the sqlmgr connection for the dialog, then permissions).

When I try to add the role to the new server it doesn't save! This is the only setting that's different, can't connect using sqlmgr from other machines to this server so any ideas on other settings to look at appreciated.

Move SQL2005 From Default Instance To Named Instance

Mar 2, 2007

I have a server with sql server 2005 installed as the default instance -- I have a piece of software that needs SQL2000 to be the default instance. Is there a way other than install new sql2005 named instance and move databases to rename my SQL2005 instance from <machinename> to <machinename>sql05 for example?

How To Check Out Our Cluster Remotely?

Jan 11, 2007


Hi everyone,

Primary platform on client is XP Pro sp2 and on server Win2003 Ad.Server 64-bit
We're looking for any snippet or link related with Clustering instantiating.
We need to call our remote cluster from an ASP 3.0 page and check out if one of our Active Resource is up (in this case is a .net service) .

We suppose that it should be done for each node. It's an Active-Passive cluster.

Thanks for your time,

Nov 3, 2004

I have a named instance of MSDE running on my windows 2k3 web server. I can connect just fine using ODBC to that DB whailst I am on the server.

I would like to be able to create an ODBC connection from my local machine (running Windows XP pro) to the MSDE database on my server but I can't get it going.

I have heard that I need to edit the registry but a Google search warns that this could be a vulnerability...

How do I do it without compromising the security of my web server?

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.

Connect To CE Remotely

Jun 8, 2007

If I have SQL 2005 Standard installed on a server and I log on locally to that server. Can I connect to other machines through Management Studio-->Object Explorer that have SQLCE installed and manage the CE DB?



I think you can only connect to either local .sdf files or ones located on a device attached by USB to the local machine, but I have had some difficulty finding a definitive statement on that.

Remotely Connect To MSDE

Dec 29, 2003

Hi
I just installed MSDE over my Windows 2003 box and facing an small problem.
I installed it with SQL security mode and also set a password for user "sa".
Everything looks just fine using "osql" as it uses local address.
But I can't connect to my server from another computer using VS.NET Server Explorer.
It seems as MSDE is set to reject connections from outside by default.
My question is how to enable it so I can connect using my "sa" account.
Appreciate your help in advance.

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 ?

Cannot Connect Remotely To HTTP EndPoint

Feb 1, 2007

Dear all,

I appologise that incarnations of this topic have been posted several times on this forum, however I cannot find a scenario that is the same as my own so I've resorted to starting a new thread.

I can successfully create and connect remotely to an HTTP EndPoint on my Windows 2003 machine using Integrated security, the administrator username and password via my static IP address.

I have read that Windows XP SP2 supports HTTP EndPoints, and it would be much more convenient for me to be able to create EndPoints in XP, and connect remotely.

I have created the endpoint like so...

CREATE ENDPOINT sql_tvr10
STATE = STARTED
AS HTTP(
PATH = '/sql/tvr10', AUTHENTICATION = (INTEGRATED),
PORTS = (CLEAR))

FOR SOAP (
WEBMETHOD 'StoredProcedure1'
(name='master.dbo.StoredProcedure1'),
WSDL = DEFAULT,
BATCHES = ENABLED,
DATABASE = 'master',
NAMESPACE = 'http://194.106.11.11/' )


In visual studio I can retrive a list of services running at http://localhost/sql/tvr10?WSDL absolutely fine. However, in Visual Studio on the remote machine, I cannot connect to http://194.106.11.11/sql/tvr10?WSDL - it prompts me for a username and password, however I cannot select the username - it is set to "Athlon64Guest" (Athlon64 is my server computer name). I have no passwords on any of my windows accounts (except administrator), and I have no database passwords set.


Could someone please tell me how I should go about accessing the HTTP EndPoint?

Just so it is clear, I am running a small LAN with no domain, just a workgroup. I need the client application to be able to connect via http regardless of which network it is on. I am using VS2005 and SQL Server 2005 Dev Ed.

Many thanks in advance,
Simon

How To Remotely Connect To SQL Express Using SQL Authentification Across A LAN.

Sep 19, 2007

I hope helps some folks. I hope the links come through okay.
Keywords: Help, Network, KB910437, SQL Express, Network, TCP/IP, User,



SQL Server Express Networking

After a long period of trial and error I finally figured out how to connect to SQL Server Express 2005 using SQL Authentication across an XP network. It required several rather involved several steps to do this. I wrote this document just in case I forgot what I did so that I could repair or re-create my network login(s).

I will try to summarize the steps and include some HELP links to the web pages or my local €œSQL Books On Line€? pages that pointed me in the correct directions. The final piece to my puzzle was found here on the MSDN forums. Some links are better than others, while others may appear not to apply, so always check for links at the bottom of pages. Some were the best I could find after the fact, and not my original pages. Others were actually better, and may seem to be redundant. It€™s a work in progress.

I left out many routine or obvious steps like telling you when to click OK. If you need to be told when, you have no business even considering trying this. Good Luck!


PREREQUISITES:

1. You must have an instance of SQL Express installed and running.
2. You must have the SQL Browser service running.
3. You must have SQL Management Studio Express, SMSE, installed on your Server and to be able to log in as an administrator using Windows Authentification. Be familiar with Object Explorer under SMSE.
4. You must have SQL Server Surface Area Configuration properly installed.
5. You must have a functioning LAN, such as a Windows Workgroup.
6. You need a second computer on your LAN running SMSE Tools for testing.
7. You need a strong knowledge of how to use Control Panel.
8. You need to have KB910437 properly installed despite what this might say, although a neat diagnostic command is documented to verify your install.


SUMMARY:


You must enable SQL Networking
You must configure SQL TCP/IP for the server instance.
You must configure the server instance to use UDP Port 1433.
You must enable a UDP port in your Windows Firewall for that server instance.
Test the ability to remote log in using Windows Authentification using SMSE.
You must create a Windows User account for SQL.
You must create a SQL User login Auditing for that Windows User account.
You must grant Permissions to do things for that SQL login.
Now you can try to Log In across a network.


DETAILS:


SQL Networking must be setup by using the SQL Configuration Manager, SCM.

The default installation leaves networking disabled.
Select and use the TCP/IP protocol.
Re-Start the SQL Server service.
Using the SQL Server Surface Area Configuration Manager you must enable TCP/IP.

Select €œServices and Connections€?.
Choose your server instance and then select €œRemote Connections€?.
Choose €œLocal and Remote€?, then €œUsing TCP/IP Only€?.
Re-Start the SQL Server service.
The server needs a means to talk to the outside world. Use SCM.

Setup your IP address by right clicking on the TCP/IP protocol
Choose €œProperties€?.
On the €œProtocol€? tab leave the default settings, (Yes, 30000, Yes, No).
Select the €œIP Address€? tab.
Configure €œIP1€?, (Yes, Yes, enter your IP address, 0, blank).
Configure €œIP All. Leave the default alone.
Enter €œ1433€? on the second line.
Re-Start the SQL Server service.
The server needs to unlock the door to the outside world.

Open Control Panel and select Windows Firewall.
Click the €œExceptions€? tab and click on €œAdd Port€¦€?.
For €œName€?, enter the name of the server instance.
For €œPort Number€?, the same port as Step 3, 1433.
Test to see if Windows log in works before enabling SQL Authentification.

Using the SMSE, select the €œConnect€? icon in Object Explorer.
Accept all defaults and see if it works.
The server needs Windows user accounts setup.

Set up a generic user account for SQL remote users.
I suggest setting up an account for administrators to use.
I suggest setting up an account for general users to use.
SQL needs to add Windows users to SQL Logins.

Convert a windows user login to a SQL login manually or automatically.
The user needs to be assigned tasks that he is permitted to perform.

Grant the user limited access, or just enough.
Assign generic logins to groups, and then assign permissions to the groups.
Use the pre-defined groups. By assigning users to groups.
Test to see if SQL Authentification works locally, then remotely.

Using the SMSE, select the €œConnect€? icon in Object Explorer.

Use VPN To Connect Remotely To SQL Express Server

Dec 15, 2006

Hello,

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?

Anyone any ideas?

Can't Connect Remotely To SQL Express On Virtual Private Server

Mar 18, 2007

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?

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.

Can't Connect Remotely To WSUS Referential MSDE Database

Nov 9, 2006

Hi all,

WSUS is installed on my windows 2003 server. During the install, parameter DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS was not specified, and so no remote connection was possible.

I used SVRNETCN.exe to enable TCP/IP remote connection on port 1433. However it seems not to work.

FROM THE SERVER :

osql -E -S MYSERVERWSUS works fine but

osql -E -S 127.0.0.1WSUS doesn't work, i get the famous error

[DBNETLIB]Serveur SQL spécifié non trouvé.
[DBNETLIB]ConnectionOpen (Connect()).

If i user "osql -L" command, my instance doesn't appear in the list

FROM A CLIENT COMPUTER

osql -E -S MYSERVERWSUS and

osql -E -S MY_SERVER_IPWSUS don't work, i get the same error

I've tried tried to understand for hours, and i'm lost. I thought there may be a problem between SQL and 2003, and read SQL sp3a was required. I ran

select @@version from osql and got result

Microsoft SQL Server 2000 - 8.00.881 (Intel X86)

8.00.881 is not referenced in ms support as a patched version number !!!!!

Can anyone help me please ?

How Can One Connect (remotely) To SQLExpress Which Is Installed On Windows XP Home

Jun 27, 2006

Hi all,

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").

Thank you

Ioannis

My ISP Does Not Allow Me To Remotely Connect To My Hosted SQL Server DB--How Can I Use SQLDataSource And Other Controls In Development?

Jun 30, 2007

All, 
My ISP does not allow me to remotely connect to my hosted SQL Server DB--how can I use SQLDataSource and other data bound controls in development?
Here are my specs:
    IDE:  Visual Web Developer Express 2005
    Database:  MS SQL Server
    ASP Version:  ASP.NET 2.0
The SQL Server is hosted centrally at the ISP; basically I have been given the connection string parameters.
My question is this:
    Do I use two web.config files (one for when I develop locally and one for when I deploy remotely)?  If so, how?  Will the SQLDataSource control find the connection string defined in web.config on the remote server?  I don't want to have to write all of the database code and it would be a big loss of one of the major benefits of using ASP.NET 2.0 if I do.
 Any help will be greatly appreciated,
 Leslie
