Client Configuration Utility

Jul 20, 1998

Could someone please explain to me the client configuration utility in plain English please.

I have VB applications installed on the sales force`s laptops that log onto SQL Server through RAS and an ODBC connection. The client configuration utility is not installed on their machines, but everything works fine.
The BOL say that when installing utilities, the user is given the option of selecting the net-library to use. I am not, when installing it on my NT Workstation, or W95 Operating system.
The BOL also state that the control panel has an entry to allow selecting which protocol to use. I cannot see it

Who needs the client configuration utility installed, obviously not the clients, is it just the people who want enterprise manager on their desktops ?

I am completely confused by this application
This is the one area of SQL Server where I am lost, help !

Client Network Utility...

Nov 9, 2000

I'm getting errors in EM when trying to connect to one of my registered servers. When the Client Network utility is using TCP/IP as the default protocol I get:


A connection could not be established to xxxxx - General network error. Check your network
documentation. ConnectionOpen (connect())...

But if I switch to use Named Pipes I connect just fine.

This worked just fine up until last week.. We're going through Tokenring to Ethernet conversions.. Is this a bigger network issue?

Thanks..

Client Side Backup Utility For MS SQL 7

Feb 28, 2000

Anyone know of any kind of little script or utility that can be placed on an end users PC to backup a specific database whenever they want? All I want it to do is to name it according to the date, place it in a predefined directory, and tell the user that it worked or failed. I am not very good at programing. Also, this is MS SQL 7. This tool needs to be fairly idiot proof. Any ideas?

Thanks,

Tim

Client Network Utility Service Pack

Jan 13, 2004

2 Questions:

1) I am getting back into SQL more than before, in my new job. I need to find the service pack installed on the clients who have the Client Network Utility installed. I do not remember how to do this.

2) Running 'Select @@VERSION' on the server returns 7.00.1063 but does not indicate the service pack. Does this still mean sp4 has been installed?

I'm trying to ensure we'll all up to date since our dual 700 procs are acting eratic...jumps between 10 - 95% or so.

Server info:

NT Server SP6
SQL 7.0
2GB Ram
2 procs @ 700Mhz
Roughly 80 network connections.
No other programs running on server except Antivirus.

Thank you!

How To Use Deployment Utility Using A Single Package Configuration File

Jan 22, 2007

Hi,

We are trying to create a deployment utility for a solution. The issue we are facing is, we are using a single package configuration file and when we try to build the solution to create the deployment utility, the build process fails saying that the package configuration file already exists. THe reason for this is while trying to build, the utility copies the configation fiel for the packages, it copies for one, but for the second onward, when it tries to copies, it fails saying the file already exists.



Any idea how to overcome this, or else any suggestions how to perform the similar steps to create a deployment utility for a solution in which the packages share a single package configuration file.

Any suggestion would be really appreciated.



Thanks in Advance,

Manish Singh

SQL 7.0 Client Configuration's Problem

Mar 6, 2000

I setup SQL 7.0 server on NT Server and SQL 7.0 client on NT workstation. I wrote a VC++ program using ODBC to connect
database and set ODBC Data Source Administrator as follow:

- Add a new User DSN
- setup name, description, server, of User DSN
- enter Login ID and psw
- Change the default database to "Test" which I've already built on server (leave other options remain)
- didn't change any settings in the next page
- Test Data Souce successfully.

But when I run the VC++ program, it comes out an error message like this:

SQL Error State:01000, Native Error Code: 1645, ODBC Error: [Microsoft]
[ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Changed database context to 'Test'.
SQL Error State:01000, Native Error Code: 1647, ODBC Error: [Microsoft]
[ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Changed language setting to us_english.

Can anyone tell me what are these error codes means? Are there any settings on the SQL server that I forgot to set?

Thanks

Client Installation && Configuration Automation

Jul 16, 2007

Hello!



I am looking to automate the rollout of the SQL Native client to our workstations. What I would like to do is use our login script to initiate an unattended install on the workstation. I will create the unattended file using the one that comes with SQL Server 2005 as a guide. This seems pretty straightforward.



More importantly, the other task I want to tackle is adding server aliases to the workstations. I am thinking of creating an alias for each of our applications and pushing the changes out by merging a registry key(maybe WMI? I dont know...). This way, should we need to move application databases to a different instance, we can just push an updated list of aliases to the workstations. The actual storage location remains transparent to the applications and users, (ie no configuration changes).



Has anyone done this or have any ideas? Are there any pros/cons that I have not thought of?



Thanks for any input!

SQL Native Client Configuration Or Remote Connections Problem

Dec 7, 2006

If I look under SQL native client configuration | Client protocols, I have no entries and no ability to look at the properties of SQL Native client Configuration. Something is missing which I think is related to an error when connecting to my local server.

sqlcmd -E -S .devmain, 1064

I get error :

Encryption not support
sqlcmd: Error: microsoft SQL native Client : Client unable to establish connection

An error has occurred while establish 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..

In comparison to other machines here at work, it appears my remote connections are configured. But I have no Client Protocols under sql native client configuration, how can I get them in there?

Thanks, in advance.

Force Protocol Encryption In SQL2005 Client Configuration Doesn't...

Feb 5, 2007

I am accessing a SQL2005 Express SP1 Server via TCP/IP (all machines fully up to date with windows update). For ease of configuration the Server IP is mapped to an Alias in Native Client Configuration Manager. On the Client Force Protocol Encryption is set to Yes and Trust Server Certificate is set to No. The clients are accessing the DB via SQL 2005 Management studio express and Ms Access 2003 (an access adp front end to the sql database).

As a test i turned off force encryption on the server. A Network trace shows no encryption! Turning on force encryption on the server corrects this.

As a further test I configured the server with a certificate the client doesn't trust. No error is generated by the un-trusted certificate! The only way to generate the certificate error is to enable encryption in the connection properties of each application. Why isn't the Native Client Configuration Manager utility enforcing this???

This brings me on to a second (off-topic problem). In my access adp file, if I enable €œuse encryption for data€? advanced option under the database connection dialog all works as expected (encryption + certificate verification). However, I am programmatically updating the connection in VBA

Application.CurrentProject.OpenConnection "Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Data Source=AliasName;Use Encryption for Data=True;..."

If I do this no encryption is enabled!!! Access seems to just ignore the encryption statement.

Has anybody got any ideas as to why either of these issues are occurring or if there are any workarounds?

Thanks

Stuart

SQL Configuration Manager And SQL Server Surface Area Configuration Tools

May 2, 2007

I have just finished installing SQL 2005 Ent Edition on Win 2000 Adv Server, SQL2005 SP2, and SP2 Hotfix KB934458.

Configuration Manager - Which Configuration Type To Chose ?

Jan 14, 2006

It seems to me, that the best way is to have one Environment Varible containing the name of the SQL Server, so that you can look up the configuration in the SSIS Configuration Table when you run the package.

Is this the preferable way of doing it ? I would like to hear some positive/negative comment of why chosing a configuration type instead of another.

It seems to me that putting all of the configuration in the Environment variable is harder work but most secure (server breakdown vs table corruption/database error...)

Let's have some comments

SQL NATIVE CLIENT - OLE DB Connection On 64 Bit Client

Apr 23, 2008

I have tried this on several different operating systems (VISTA and XP ) and several versions of SQL NATIVE CLIENT including 2005.90.3042.0

I have a 64 bit "SQL NATIVE CLIENT" connection that fails. The exact same connection and code succeeds on 32 bit.
My customer and I prepend "oledb:" to the connection string and it starts working.

FAILS on 64 bit:
Provider=SQLNCLI.1;Integrated Security=SSPI;Persist Security Info=False;Initial Catalog=Wrigley_Test;Data Source=MONGO;Use Procedure for Prepare=1;Auto Translate=True;Packet Size=4096;Workstation ID=RIPTIDE;Use Encryption for Data=False;Tag with column collation when possible=False;MARS Connection=False;DataTypeCompatibility=0;Trust Server Certificate=False

WORKS

I debugged my code to the point that I know it is happening when I call CreateAccessor for my SQL statement.


m_hr=m_pIAccessor->CreateAccessor(DBACCESSOR_ROWDATA, GetCols(), (m_pDBBinds+IsBookmarked()), 0, &m_hAccessor, NULL);

Error:

Does anyone have any suggestions?

BCP Utility .

Aug 6, 2002

Hello ,

I want to know how can i can use the bcp coomand to import a text file into a SQL database table . The text file contains info. like servername , date , time , logininfo and description .

The problem is i cannot import that file into the table through data import wizard . The wizard is not able to separate the fields properly and the import takes place with mixed up data in different columns . The separator in the text file is colon . I even tried fixed length with manual column separation .
The text in the text file are not aligned properly as these are log files generated by the system which i am trying to import in a table .

So how can use the bcp command to specify the column length properly and seperate the fields uniformly so that the data gets imported neatly .

Any thoughts how could the command look like ?

Thank you very much .
Anita.

I want to use the BCP utility to import data from a .dat file into my database. The .dat file contains a table called xv_Appointments containing the following fields:

SurgerySlotKey
PatientKey

TimeArrived

I would like to import only two of these fields into a table called tbl_Appointments e.g.

AppointmentKey
TimeArrived

I can't seem to get the BCP util to do this. It only works if I import all of the fields from xv_Appointments. Does anyone know if this is possible?
