Hi, I'm supporting a SQL 6.5 application through a firewall & I'm new to NT & SQLServer.
What's the easiest way to find out what port SQL is listening on? It should be 1433 but
the NT guys say 1433 isn't in use. What's the easiest way to change the default port? A search through Books online talks about editing registry keys & I'd prefer not to do this if this can be avoided. Any tips would be appreciated.
Hello,I have SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition, and I'd like to change thedefault port to something else (we'll use 2033 for this example). I'vetried to connect from another computer on the same subnet using"ServerName:2033" as the server, but it doesn't connect. It will connect ifI change the Server to use the default port and change the server to connectto on the client to "ServerName", but either I"m not referencing the newport number properly or ????Any help you could provide would be great.Thanks In Advance!Rick
I installed a default SQL Server 2012 instance on Windows Server 2012.I enabled the SQL Browser and changed the TCP port of the instance to 1435. I changed port 1433 to 1435 I was able to connect to the instance using SSMS on another server. Now I have to enter Servername,1435 to make a connection.Why does the SQL Browser not resolve the servername to the right IP address and port 1435? Why am I not able to make a connection when I enter the servername or <servername>MSSQLSERVER? Is a SQL Browser only resolving named instances?This works fine for a named instance. Is there something special about default instances or the SQL Browser?
I am unclear as to which Ip address to change the standard port on. When setting up a cluster you have multiple IP address's including the nic that is used for the heartbeat. I have not found any documention on how to change both nodes to listen on a port other than 1433..
Currently have a single hard coded file path to the SSRS config file which parses the file and provides the reporting services web service url. My question is how would i run this same query against 100s of servers that may or may not share the same file path as the one hard coded ?
Is there a way to query the registry to find the location of the config file of any server ? which could be on D, E, F, H, etc.
I know I can string together the address followed by "reports" and named instance if needed, but some instances may not have used the default virtual directory name (Reports).
Am I going about this the hard way ? Is there a location where the web service url exists in a table ? I could not locate anything in the Reporting service database. Basically need to inventory all of my reporting services url's.
When I change the tcp/ip port to anything other than 1433 my SSIS nor DTS packages run successfully. Does the tcp/ip port have to be on 1433 for the SSIS or DTS packages to run successfully?
I am unable to access the default port 1433 on my SQL 2003 server. There is no firewall. I run telnet <ip> <port> and get "Connection failed" which explains my inability to connect to the server for weeks. I have being unable to connect to the server after I uninstalled sql 2000 and reinstalled it on my 2003 server. Some of the things I have checked is Network Configuration in EM. Named Pipes and TCP/IP is installed with port set to 1433. HKLMSoftwareMicrosoftMSSQLServerClientSuperSocketNetLibTcpDefaultPort port is set to 1433. Is there anything I need to configure on the server side to have the default sql server port enabled.
hai all, I need to change the default port number of the SQL server from 1433 to some other port number. i know that it can be done thru SERVER NETWORK UTILITY. Can some one confirm that. It will be helpful. Also i want to make sure that port to given is free port. how can i find that particular port is free.
can any one guide me how to change the default port address of apache which is 80 to any other port number. coz the default port number is taken by iis also.
Hey guys, I uploaded my website from VWD Express to ipower. My database did not work, which I have learned upon some research should have not been a shock to me, but most definetely was. When I contacted tech support they told my that my web.config files were pointing to my local paths. That I should change them and I should be fine. Elsewhere, in the knowledge base I found the strConnect that I am under the impression I need to use. strConnect = "Provider=SQLOLEDB; Server=SQL-A1; UID=account_username; PWD=account_password; Database=user_db_name" oSQLServer.Connect strServer,strLogin,strPwd The problem is, I'm a complete newbie, learning as I go and I can't find anything on where or how I insert this into my web.config to correct my paths. IPower will not help with coding. I know my current connection string is in web.config in the appsettings, that's about as far as my knowledge goes. So, could anyone show me how I go about putting this into my web.config? Examples are very helpful :] On a side note, I've been reading that this is a common problem among newbies like myself. So, is changing these files actually going to work, or am I wasting my time? Also, before I get knee-deep into it, is the database-publishing kit put out by MS the way to go here? Thanks for any and all replies, you guys are always awesome.
When I installed MS SQL Server 2000 on our client's computer I installed it under a local account using Windows Authentication as the server logon and am now accessing it using a network login (remoting into the same box). The result is that if I change the password for the local Windows account and reboot the server, SQL server cannot be restarted; I get an error:
A connection could not be established to (LOCAL)
Reason: SQL SERVER does not exist or access denied. ConnectionOpen (Connect())..
Please verify SQL Server is running and check your SQL Server registration properties and try again.
I've changed the registration properties to use SQL Server Authenticaiton instead of Windows to no avail. Whichever connection option I use the server will not start unless I change the local account's password back to what it was when I installed. This works, but our client wants to have that local account's password changed for security/peace of mind. Any help or advice would be appreciated here :)
I am trying to create a proof of concept to show that we can have packages deployed on 3 different servers and all we need to do is tell the package, upon execution/scheduled task, where to go fetch it's configurations from.
The configurations are using SQL Server as the package configuration. This makes it easier for DBA's to maintain since DBA's are responsible for package executions and job scheduling.
For example, the configuration database and all package configurations would be found on server1, server2 and server3 The difference in values is that on Server1, the configuration for the source data and the destination data point to Server1DatabaseSource and Server1DatabaseDestination and on server2, the configs point the source to Server2DatabaseSource and Server2DatabaseDestination and for server 3, the same thing but pointing to server3.
There is also a connection for the SSIS_Config database we're getting the configurations from. In theory, if we specify a different server where this SSIS_Config database is found, it should override the settings in the package. No?
When I schedule OR execute the package, it's always getting it's configs from the config specified in the package independent of wether I specify it in the Connection Managers of the Execute Package Utility when I manually execute it OR in the data sources tab when I configure the package to be run as a job in SQL Server 2005.
Having problems running the BPA for 2012. We setup using a clustered environment, SQL Server installed using default instance, and a static port not 1433. When I try to run the BPA using the instance name it says it doesn't exist, and won't let me add a port number. However, if I use MSSQLSERVER as the instance name it runs with no port specified and returns results. I assume that it doesn't require a port because the default instance would pull from the Browser Service and the using MSSQLSERVER is the same as running the default on a standalone server. Are those assumptions correct?
Hi, can anyone help me please - I'm still struggling with my database. My set up is: Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2005, SQL Express 2005, GoDaddy windows shared hosting. On my PC I have a site which uses membership and the default database which was created after first compilation. This works fine locally. However, I need to export this to the GoDaddy server. To do this I must rename the database (or recreate the project with a newly named database) and figure out how to alter any other settings. I tried running aspnet_regsql.exe command but I really didn't have any luck. I would have thought this would be a straight forward operation. Can anyone give me guidance please. Garrett
Can someone please help , we are trying to change the default language from us_english to british englsish as the date formats have to be in dd/mm/yyy for our european clients.
We tried sp_configure 'default language' 23 Reconfigure . It worked 3 months back.
We are trying this on the reverse , now and it doesnt work.
I thought I had this solved but after running aspnet_regiis again I am having the same problem.
I can't log onto my sql server because the default DB is master. The following command using sqlcmd gives me the master db:
Code:
SELECT * FROM INFORMATION_SCHEMA.TABLES WHERE TABLE_TYPE = 'BASE TABLE' GO
So, to try to fix this i ran:
Code:
EXEC sp_defaultdb 'sa', 'my_default_db' GO
and no luck. I went over to the DB server and checked the permissions under SERVER/SQLEXPRESS > SECURITY > LOGINS. All except NTAuthority and Administrators have my intended DB as the default (including ASPNET).
This is frustrating because I know I have figured it out before but I can't remember what I did. Help appreciated.
Does anybody know how I can change the default value for a column?I was trying to remove the default value in order to add the new oneafterwards. This is what I tried:alter table /table-name/ drop default for /column-name/alter table /table-name/ alter column /column-name/(/new-decl-without-default/)It did not work. I cannot find a solution in the documentation. Maybeyou can help me out?Thank you,Johan
A few weeks ago a client asked me to add a column to a table so Icreated this script:ALTER TABLE dbo.tblIndividual ADD fldRenewalStatus BIT NOT NULLCONSTRAINT fldRenewalStatus_Default DEFAULT 0Now they want to change it from a BIT to an INT, to store an enum.Fair enough. However, no matter how much I wrangle with a script, Ican't find a reliable way to alter the column. I've mixed and matchedthe following and nothing seems to work:EXEC sp_unbindefault 'tblIndividual.fldRenewalStatus'DROP DEFAULT DF_tblIndividual_fldRenewalStatusALTER TABLE tblIndividualDROP CONSTRAINT fldRenewalStatus_DefaultALTER TABLE tblIndividualDROP COLUMN fldRenewalStatusGOALTER TABLE tblIndividualADD fldRenewalStatus int NOT NULLCONSTRAINT fldRenewalStatus_Default DEFAULT 0Thoughts?ThanksEdward

I've created a new Stored Procedure template and saved it to .Microsoft SQL Server90ToolsShellTemplatesSqlStored Procedure. I can view (and use) the template via the Template Explorer, however, I want this new template to become my default template.
What do I mean by this? - I want to be able to right-click on stored procedures in my object explorer, click New Stored Procedure, and be forced to use my new template, rather than Create Procedure (New Menu).SQL.
Our security center just scanned my database server and has asked that I change the database server from the default instance name and change the default port used. When installed MS SQL Server 2000 I used the default installation settings. I have installed SP4 and this is all running on a fully patched WIN 2003 Server machine. Is this possible without un-installing and then re-installing?
Best practice talks about the use of name conventions in the SSIS packages.
Is there a way to rename the default names of the tasks in the DataFlow and ControlFlow once and for all, so that each time I drag a new DataFlowTask in, the default name will be DFT and so on.
Hi;I feel like an idiot to be asking this,but how do I change the default drive and folderin which new databases are created?I've been looking all over Server Mgmt Studio,and I can't find anything. I'm thinking that someonecan tell me this off the top of their heads,or slip me a link to a web page.Thanks,
If you enter "Create Database test", the database files (mdf file & log file) are created, by default, in:- C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLData I want to change that to:- D:Database Files I sucessfully moved the model database to this location (using the instructions in BOL) assuming that all new databases would now get created in the same location, but they don't. They still get created in: C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLData
So how do I change the default? (It's not satisfactory to have to move each database after it's created)
I am creating SSRS reports on top of SSAS cubes. I want the default value of parameter to change dynamically based on the current year or it should select the last of the parameter values.
I have installed my modell database onto c:mssql7data...
How do I now change the properties of this so that when someone creates a database, the path it will get created to is set to d: I thought that I could just move model, but it seems that this isn't possible.
I want to change the default directory for my stored procedures. It is extremely inconvenient for me that they are placed in documents and settings... I cannot find a place in the Tools where I can change it.
I think it has been discussed previously that having default parameter values based on expressions, e.g. a default parameter value of =Split("Bug",",") in multiple parameters will cause a postbacl whenever a user selects different values from the list.
Is this by design? Its a bit of an annoying thing. The refreshpostback doesnt happen if you have basic defaults like ="All" but only when an expression of some sort is used in more than 1 parameter. Does RS think they are linked or something, why does it need to psotback efresh?
This displays the parameter bar and the view report button. When pressing the view report button, the report is automatically rendered into HTML 4.0. Is there a way to use the existing parameter bar and automatically render the report to a different extension (such as PDF) when the parameters are entered and the View Report Button is pressed.
I'd like to know what's considered a best practice in the following scenario...
We're in the process of converting DTS to SSIS, our current SQL2K setup has one DTS package per database, each database and package are mirror images of each other, with the exception of connection properties and the files path's they pull from. (Occasionally there may be a one off Execute SQL Task that differs from package to package...but this will be handled in a different manner outside of the package from this point on)
From a administration perspective this has been somewhat cumbersome, as every time there is a schema change we need to update the transformations in each individual package...after updating 120 packages my index finger has a bad case of carpel tunnel!
My thought with SSIS is that I can create one package, with many configuration files (one for each database).
Now my question is, 1) is this a good idea? 2) Anytime we create a new database (New Customer = New Database) and need to create a new xml config file, do I have to create the config in BIS/SSIS package then redeploy the package?...or Can I simply add a new config file to the appropriate directory and reference this config in the scheduled job?
I have set up a new web server in my DMZ. This web server needs to "talk" to an application server located on my LAN. It communicates via a COM + Component.
I would like to keep the access that is open between the DMZ & LAN to minimal, obviously for security reasons. Does anyone know what port is used for COM + communication?
