Dec 23, 2005Hi
I am running Visual Studio 2005 Visual Web Developer Standard Edition on a machine with SQL Server 2000. Could you please teach me how to modify the connection string below so that it connects to SQL Server 2000 with the database called "VisualWebDev".
Thank you.

Connecting To The Database In SQL Server 2000
Jan 31, 2007I am developing a system using VS 2003 with database SQL Server 2000.
In web.config, I have added the following code in it
<sessionState
mode="InProc"
stateConnectionString="tcpip=127.0.0.1:42424"
sqlConnectionString="data source=127.0.0.1;Database=grandb;Trusted_Connection=yes"

Actually I don't know if the above code is correct. My database is stored in the SQL Server 2000 and named as grandb.
Thank you.

Connecting Aspx To SQL Server 2000
Jul 24, 2007Hello 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)
Help!!

Connecting To Northwind On SQL Server 2000
Jan 14, 2004I'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!

Connecting To SQL Server 2000 On Another Subnet
Jul 23, 2005Hi 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

Issue Connecting To A Remote SQL Server 2000
Mar 11, 2007I get the following error message in quotes. I have a web application written in ASP.NET 2.0 through which I am trying to connect to a remote SQL Server 2000. My operating system is Windows Vista .
I looked at many different sites to find a solution for this but without any luck. I am sure someone would have seen this issue here and I expect them to shed some light.
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).
The connection string is located in my web.config file which looks like
<add name="AMSConn" connectionString="Data Source=xxxx;Initial Catalog=testdb;User ID=sa;Password=xxxx" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
I want to get this issue resolved and I need you guys help.
Please let me know if you need any more information.

Getting When Connecting To SQL Server 2005 Error Using MS SQL 2000?
Jun 8, 2007I'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?

Error Connecting To Remote SQL Server 2000 From ASP.NET 2.0
Jul 11, 2007My environment is Windows Server2003, ASP.NET 2.0, SQL Server 2000 using SQL authentication (names of DB's, sql id's, passwords are identical on both servers)
My web application successfully connects to my database the web app and the DB are both on the same server (10.144.25.9).This connection string works:
<add name="DefaultDataTierConnectionA" connectionString="Data Source=10.144.25.9,1433; Network Library=DBMSSOCN; Initial Catalog=9D_SQL; User ID=******; Password=******" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
PROBLEM:
The problem occurs when the DB is mpved to the remote SQL Server (10.144.25.10). I use almost the identical connection string except for the IP address which is changed to the remote machine. The db name, user, password is same on remote machine as on the local, so everything should work but does'nt. This connection string fails:

Error Connecting To Remote SQL 2000 Server
Dec 20, 2007I'm experiencing a problem connecting to a SQL 2000 server through my ASP code. My connection string is as follows:
<add name="TheConnectionString" connectionString="driver={Sql Server};provider=MSDASQL;server=10.0.1.42;database=dbname;uid=*********;pwd=*********" providerName="System.Data.Odbc" />
The problem doesn't occur when I run my ASP code from my workstation using VS.NET's builtin webserver. It makes the connections and executes the CRUD commands successfully. However, when I publish my site to the webserver (which resides on 10.0.1.16) it fails out with the following error:
System.Data.Odbc.OdbcException: ERROR [08001] [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBNETLIB]SQL Server does not exist or access denied.ERROR [01000] [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBNETLIB]ConnectionOpen (Connect()).
I've verified that the webserver can talk to the DB server by connecting to the remote DB server through SQL Enterprise Manager running locally on the webserver. If I try to do this with a DSN I get the same results. I get the same error from any other webserver on the internal network. The difference between my workstation and the internal network is that I'm using a VPN to connect to our internal network while the webservers are physically connected to it. Firewalling isn't the issue in this case because the webservers and DB server are on a trusted network. I've seen other ways of connecting to the DB server including using Named Pipes (which I would rather not do because I don't want to setup a named pipe on the production db server).
I'm relatively new to ASP.NET 2.0, so the above connection string is an adaptation of some old ASP code. If anybody has any suggestions on a better way to construct this connection string, please let me know. I've been racking my brains trying to get this to work outside of the devel env.
Connecting To SQL Server 2000 Named Instances
Aug 29, 2006I have the following problem;
I fully understand that to connect to a named instance of SQL Server you need to use the ServerNameSQLInstanceName. The problem I have is that I have a SQL Server in a different zone. I can connect to the Default instance by IP Address or the ServerName.zone.domain.org. (e.g. MySQLServer.zone1.mydomain.org).
However, the same thing does not work for the Named Instance. It seems to be named instance or nothing.
How can I connect to this named instance across network zones?:S
Connecting To SQL Server 2000 Named Instances
Jan 9, 2007We are having all kinds of issues with named instances for SQL 2000.
I am trying to connect to a SQL Server 2000 named instance on a different subnet and get an error. I cannot connect with ODBC or our web app.
I am using the port number for the alias that I created in the SQL Client Utility. We can connect to default instances without a problem, but not the named instances.
The SQL Server is 2000 build 2040 (Service pack 4 with a hot fix.) The server is listening on port 1223. In the ODBC connection I click on the Network Config and create an alias with the named instance such as SQLVSNSQLNI and specify port 1223. I have also tried adding the port to the connection string in the ASP include file (SQLVSNSQLNI,1223). If I do the same thing with a default instance on the network, both the app and ODBC work fine. It is only when I use a named instance.
Very frustrated. Thanks for any help you can provide

Problem Connecting To Server 2005 Express On Win Server 2000 Sp4

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.

Connecting To An External SQL 2000 Server From A Vista Machine With SQL 2005 Installed
Nov 26, 2006hi 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)

Connecting MS SQL 2000 Thru C++
Sep 6, 2004Hi,
1)can someone help to explain these 2 lines of codes to me?
I need to change this 2 lines of code to my SQL 2000 database that is connected to my computer locally using Windows NT. How can i change these code?Thanks!
char *connectionString = "dsn=SPS;uid=sa;pwd=;";
hr=pRs->Open(queryString,connectionString,adOpenStatic,adLockOptimistic,adCmdUnknown);
From what i know this is connecting to an instance of the server using sa as login and no password. What does the dns refer to ?
2) If i wan to connect to a database located at the server installed on my computer locally using Windows NT authentication , do i use
