Hi all,
I installed sql server 2000 server on my machine and i need to connect to sql server 2005 server which is at other machine,
Is it possible to connect 2000 to 2005 server and get the data
I have installed Server 2005 Express on a pc running Windows Server 2000 sp4 which I want to use as the server for a network of pcs. However, I am unable to login to SQL Express on this machine from Sql Server Management Studio Express. I am in mixed mode and trying to connect with Server Authentication. I get various error messages none of which seem to point to the problem.
Networked to this pc are several other machines running Xp Professional/Home sp2 and if I install SQL Express on one of these I can log in to SQL Express on that machine without any problem. I can also connect to it via the network from the Win Server 2k machine.
Does anyone know of any issues when installing Server 2005 Express on a pc running Windows Server 2000 sp4.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks.
I'm new to using VS2005 and this is my first project connecting to our MS SQL 2000. App worked fine on my dev PC, connection to the same MS SQL Server. Published the web site to the web server (same server running MS SQL Server) and getting the below error. Is this a permission setup problem on SQL Server or does it really think it's connecting with a MS SQL 2005 database?

Hi,
Here is the syntax of the connection string within the web.config file:<connectionStrings><clear />
<add name="MyConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=000.000.000;Initial Catalog=Database Name;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=XXXXXX;Password=XXXXXX;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>
The test page has a GridView in it which uses the connectionstring fron the web.config file.

hi there - I'm praying someone here can shed some light on this - after many google and web searches, I have found users with similar issues, but have yet to find a solution.
Problem: I have recently upgraded my desktop from Windows XP to Windows Vista Ultimate (clean install) and have migrated my local machine to SQL Server 2005. However I have a number of .Net projects that access databased on another server running SQL Server 2000 - prior to my upgrade to Vista, I was running SQL Server 2000 on my desktop as well. During the install, everything seemed to go well, and I also installed the SQL Server 2005 Service pack as instructed via the MSDN site. However, when attempting to test my .net projects on my desktop pc (ie visit http://localhost), I encounter 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)
note that the server I am attempting to connect TO is the old SQL 2000 server - NOT 2005. I specify my connection info in the web.config - and it points to an external ip address on the web.
Can anyone shed some light on this? I've tried enabling remote access on my local SQL 2005 install, but I'm fairly sure thats for servers that want to connect to my desktop, rather than my desktop attempting to connect to external servers. Any help is greatly appreciated - I'm pulling my hair out over trying to figure this out! :)
To summarize my setup (if it helps)
Desktop PC:Windows Vista (Ultimate)SQL Server 2005Visual Studio 2005II 7.0.Net 2.0 (ASP.Net Application)
External Server (co-located at a datacenter)Windows Server 2003SQL Server 2000IIS 6.0.Net 2.0 (ASP.Net Application)
Much appreciated,

According to this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/914277 I am supposed to:
1.
Click Start, point to Programs, point to Microsoft SQL Server 2005, point to Configuration Tools, and then click SQL Server Surface Area Configuration.
Ok, there is no such program in this folder. The only thing in there is "SQL Server Error and Usage Reporting"...
The other thing I am greatly concerned with is this: All is want is for my webpages to be able to access my database for user authentication. I DO NOT want to grant the internet rights to remote connect to my database.
Hi, i am trying to get to my hosting companies database server. Its SQL Sever 2000, but i want to connect through SQL Server Management Studio 2005. The connection is unable to be established, although i have tried all sorts of settings for the connection. I called the hosting company and they told me to connect using the IP address of the name server for my domain. It failed and i called again to check back, and one of the guy told me that u cannot connect to an instance of sql servr 2000 from sql server 2005. Is this true? Please help.

I get the following error and have been trying to figure out why I keep getting it. Initially, I had placed my project under wwwroot folder and ran it under IIS and it gave this error. Then I moved it to my local C drive and same thing. I am sharing this project with two other co-workers and all our config files and code files are same...they don't get this error but I do. I checked that SQL Server Client Network Utility has TCP/IP and the 'Named Pipes' enabled. I thought maybe I have setting in the Visual Studio 2005 that I'm not aware of that's causing this problem...it can't be the server since my co-workers aren't having this error and can't be anything in the code since all of us are sharing this project through vss. I dont' think using different version of .net framework can create this error. I changed the version from 2.0 to use 1.1x and it gave same error... Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

I have already installed to my computer Microsoft SQL Server 2005 and SQL Serves Express. I used to be successful to connect to the SQL Server but now I CAN NOT.
Not: I try to run SQL Server 2005 but I can not, even I logged on to my computer with an administrator rights. On the other hand I can start and stop the SQL Server Express easily.
As a result, how can I solve this problem.

I'm about to go absolutely nuts. I've tried so many things including:
1) Of course making sure Remote connections and both TCP/IP and named pipes are enabled for SQL 2005
2) Verified my connection string works. I even tested it in Enterprise Library using the tool and it connects successfully via windows authentication
3) Made sure of course my logged in user is a member of the administrator group and that my user in SQL 2005 logins has db_owner and full rights to the DB I am connecting to. I also made sure the NT AUTHORITY as well as the 3 sql service users have db_owner rights as well as the adminstrator in the SQL Server logins all have db_owner to the DB
4) Started the SQL Server Browser service, SQL Server DB engine, and SQL Server Agent
5) Made sure my site is setup right in IIS 7. I checked the connection string in there as well as it shows up in IIS7 in one of the sections. Using Windows authentication and it is enabled for my site
6) Tried running the .net site using both localhost (IIS) and also tried using the Visual Studio built-in web server. Both give this message still

Hi All,
After I installed sql server 2005 64bit standard edition on Windows Server Enterprise 2008 64bit, I cannot connect to the sql instance using the sql management studio on the same machine!
I verified that:
service is running,
in surface area configuration: remote connections to local and remote are enabled, for TCP/IP and named pipes.
ran the command netstat -avn| findstr 49279 to make sure that the server is listening.
firewall is off, but this does not matter since I'm connecting locally to local instance
I'm using domain controller account to login to sql server / also tried the sa account.
what else can be wrong?
thanks.

When my default.aspx page loads I get this error for the connection to my SQL 2005 DB. 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 already gone to Surface Area Configuration to ensure that Remoting with both Named Pipes or TCP/IP is enabled and it's set to both for remoting.I verified that my local account has access to the DB.Not sure what else to check.
Hi all.I use Visual Studio .NET 2002 and SQL Server 2005 Express Edition as database.I try to connect to database using server explorer.Test connection is OK. When I done with it and click OK, the message prompt that "Unable to connect to database".So, is it impossible to connect SQL Server 2005 Express Edition using the server explorer?But, the connection is ok when I connect through code cause I can retrieve and update database.
View 2 Replies View RelatedHi Everyone,
I am running into a problem and have been browsing the web and reading nonstop for answers with no success. My company just installed SQL Server 2005 and I am trying to connect to it via SQL Server Management Studio from my network computer in the same office building.
When I browse for Local or Network Servers in the initial popup box at SQL Management Studio Startup, it doesn't show any servers at all. Is there something I need to enable on the Server using the Configuration Manager or one of the other tools to allow my network computer to "see" the SQL Server?
Any insight would be MUCH appreciated. Even a link to a how-to would suffice. Thank you.
I am developing a system using VS 2003 with database SQL Server 2000.
In web.config, I have added the following code in it

sqlConnectionString="data source=127.0.0.1;Database=grandb;Trusted_Connection=yes"

Thank you.
Hi,
My problem is somewhat like this that, i want to connect my all applications (developed in asp.net) to one database. In other words i want to make a centralised database that can be accessible from the application running at the different domains. When i did so by using the same username, password, database and server...i recieve an error that, "connection cannot be establised".
If any body have the solution for this problem. then please do write the "connection string" for me that can be efficiantly used on the applications running on differnt domains.
Thanks and Regards,

Hello All,
I am just getting started on aspx, coming from an asp background.
I created the following connectionString in my web.config file:<connectionStrings>
<add name="OuWebDB"
connectionString="server=OurServer;database=OurDatabase;uid=TheUser;pwd=ThePassword"providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"
/>
</connectionStrings>
when I run this aspx file, from a machine, I get the following 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)

I've just installed SQL Server 2000 on my local machine. I'm using the following element in my web.config file for my connection string.
<add key="SqlNWind512" value="server=(local)141.705.84.745;database=Northwind;
user id=sa;pwd=h3fe8eq7;packet size=512;" />
Unfortunately, I'm getting the following error on my aspx page:
SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
I had no problem writing a connection string to connect to the MSDE installed on my computer, but making a connection to the Northwind database on my newly installed SQL Server 2000 Developer edition has been elusive to me.
I'm sure my IP address is correct. The authentication mode for logging into the database via Enterprise Manager is setup to require a password for sa. Therefore, I assume it's required in the connection string???
Maybe not so coincidentally, while I have been able to open this database through the Server Explorer in VS.NET, I'm not able to access it via Enterprise Mananger (no response, it just hangs) or my aspx pages.
I'm dying here!!! Is my connection string wrong? Any insights would be greatly appreciated!

We have installed SQL Server 2000 in our new server running on Microsoft Windows Server 2003.
We tried to connect to the database in the Server where it is installed. We are able to connect when we give server name. We are unable to connect when we give IP Address of the server.
We have latest SP3a of SQL Server 2000 installed.
Could anyone help us in resolving this issue?
Thanks in Advance.
Hi Folks,I'm very new to SQL Server. I have a home network. My primary connectionto the internet is using "Gateway 1" a linksys router, of which, my serveris a LAN node on that router. I have another LAN node connecting to the WANnode of the "Gateway 2" a wireless USR router to use with my laptop. Usingthe wireless laptop, I am on a different subnet than the Server. I'd liketo make a connection to the server through Visual Studio.net but I can'tseem to do it. I'm using TCP/IP with a port different than the default port(let's call it port 2110, even though it's not). I do have port forwardingon Gateway1 and I've tried everything from just the server internal IPaddress, the external IP address, IP address with port designation, URL withport designation, nothing seems to work. Any ideas?Thanks!Rick
View 1 Replies View RelatedI have an Access 97 database that I connect to a SQL Server 2000through ODBC. I have to manually set up the ODBC connection on eachuser's machine if I want them to be able to use the application though.Is there a way to store the connection string within the Access DB soI don't have to touch the ODBC settings on each user's machine? Or isthere a different solution that I'm missing? There are way too manyfor me tosetup. Thanks in advance.
