Connecting To A Linked Server With ODBC
Jul 20, 2005
I'm currently trying to access data from a Cache DB using MSSQL. I have
linked the Cache server through an ODBC connection. I can see in the Linked
Server
expansion all the tables in Cache for the File(?) I want to access.
Here is my problem: Normally to access a linked sever I would do the
following:
select *
from ServerName.DatabaseName.dbo.TableName
I have tried
select *
from ServerName.DSN.dbo.TableName
select *
from ServerName.DSN.SQLUser.TableName ("SQLUser" is the owner in Cache)
None have worked (error no such object...)
What is the syntax to select data on a linked sever via an ODBC connection?
In the Linked server set up I have also check the RPC and RPC Out options...
My ultimate goal is join tables in Cache and MSSQL into MSSQL.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,

I was wondering if anyone knows how to connect with SQL Server over TCP/IP using ODBC
I tried using the IP address or domain name of the remote machine, but I get the following error:
Microsoft SQL Server ODBC Driver Version 03.70.0690
Running connectivity tests...
Attempting connection
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][TCP/IP Sockets]General network error. Check your network documentation.

I have a linked server set up to a FoxPro database. I have used the 'Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC' as the Provider name, the datasource name is 'TestFoxPro' and the Catalog is AssetTracker.
I have set it up and I am able to see the table objects in the Enterprise manager, but I am unable to select from the tables in the Query analyzer. I I have tried
select * from Test2.assettracker.dbo.assets
but i get the following error
Server: Msg 7312, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Invalid use of schema and/or catalog for OLE DB provider 'MSDASQL'. A four-part name was supplied, but the provider does not expose the necessary interfaces to use a catalog and/or schema.
So i have tried three part name, but then it does not find the object.
Any suggestions??

I am trying to connect to a Oracle 9i Server to execute a sql task, but the connection when tested seems to fail with the following error from the Integration Services Project:
Test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider. ERROR [NA000][Microsoft][ODBC driver for Oracle][Oracle]ORA-12541: TNS:no listener
ERROR[IM006][Microsoft ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed
ERROR[0100][Microsoft ODBC Driver Manager] The driver does not support the version of ODBC behavior that the application requested (see SQLSetEnvAttr).
The connection was configured and tested from Oracle's SQLPlus session. Please note that the port that the TNS Server is listening is not the default. Is there somewhere I can specify the port in the SSIS connection manager to resolve the issue.
I have tried OLEDB connection and that does not work either.
Any inputs will be appreciated.
Thanks,

I have SQL Server 2005
I have a linked server using an ODBC System DSN setup.
A DB with a view to access on of the table from the Acomba DB.
This view work just fine when I logged in using the Windows Authentification.
If I create a user (bla) with "sysadmin" as server roles
the user bla is the owner of the DB (he also created the DB)
He can't access that view. But can access any tables from the same DB
The error I keep having is the following :
Executed SQL statement : SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(ACOMBABD, 'SELECT * FROM Customer') AS derivedtbl_1

I have a SQL server that I am trying to link to a number of Oracle environments. After much tuning, we managed to achieve this although the four-part naming was not possible and we had to use Openquery and run pass throughs.
Nothing in our configuration has changed and SQL Server is no longer able connect to the linked databases. The Oracle client on the PC is fine and is able tnsping any of the remote databases. I am also able to create ODBC connections to the remote databases on the SQL box that are fine.
Using a datalink in DTS, I can connect to the remote databases. This suggests to me that there is something wrong within the actual database links. I have set them up using the working ODBC DSN's on the SQL box.
If I try and run a query against them in Query Analyser, I get the following error message :
Server: Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
OLE DB provider 'MSDAORA' reported an error.
[OLE/DB provider returned message: ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve service name
]
OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'MSDAORA' IDBInitialize::Initialize returned 0x80004005: ].
If I click on the tables icon in EM to view the remote catalogues I get the following error :
Error 7399: OLE DB provider 'MSDORA' reported an error.
OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'MSDAORA' IDBInitialize::Initialize returned 0x80004005: ].
Any help that could be give on this would be greatly appreciated.

Hello,
I have a SQL Server instance on my local computer and an Oracle
Database on a remote server. I want to run queries from tables
within both databases and am using linked servers to accomplish
this.
I configure my linked server in SQL Server using the Microsoft
OLE DB Provider for Oracle and can run queries using sql server
tables and oracle tables. However, even the simplest queries
take more than 10 minutes to run.
I have the Oracle 9 Client Installed and MDAC 2.7. I configured
my registry settings to match oracle 9's settings.
However nothing i do improves the performance of the queries
through the Microsoft OLEDB Provider for Oracle.
When I use MS Access, or use an ASP page with the following
string:
Set objConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
objConn.Open "dsn=Oberon;uid=mfs;pwd=mfs;"
I implement the ODBC driver that I configured in my system DSN
and both run the same queries very fast. The data comes back
without a problem.
So i believe I have narrowed down my problem to the OLEDB
Provider. However, SQL Server does not give me a choice to use
the ORACLE native ODBC Provider.
So then I tried using Pass-Through Queries and this worked alot
faster in SQL Server...I am completely confused as to whats
going on.
Linked Server Query that takes over 10 minutes:
SELECT * FROM OBERON..LOGS.DATA_PHOTO ldp where Machine=301 AND C3='I051097';
Pass-Through Query that works faster:
select * from Openquery(OBERON, 'SELECT * FROM LOGS.DATA_PHOTO ldp where MACHINE=301 AND C3=''I051097''')
From researching pass through queries, my understanding is that
it actually uses ODBC to give the whole query to the remote
database where the query is then run and the results are passed
back as a table, thats why you say select * from (query)...however if my understanding is correct, then you cant combine tables in different databases very easily. And will it work with .asp and .aspx pages?
Anybody have any insight as to whats going on?

I have an Oracle 9i server. To access the data in Oracle, I setup an ODBC connection to it and am able to return data from it using WinSQL (a general ODBC database client). The SQL statement is simply "SELECT * FROM COLOR" and all 133 records returned properly.
I need to copy the data from the Oracle server to SQL Express, therefore I set up linked server (by Microsoft ODBC provider) using the same ODBC connection as described above.
The problem is: only 32 records returned.
May I ask if there is any problem to this linked server setup?
Thanks.

What can be the reason(s) why I can't get data from a linked server using an ODBC datasource that works fast & fine from MS Access?
I have an ODBC connection (System DSN) configured for an Informix ODBC driver.
The Test button (belonging to this driver-setup) reports a successfull connection test.
Getting data from this database by linking tables in MS Access works fast and easy.
But I have tried for many days now to setup a linked server from SQL Server (2005)
Creation goes fine, but as soon as I issue a query, (e.g. 'select * from infrem723...remotetable' or using 'openquery')
I get the following error:
---
Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "infrem723" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error.
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "infrem723".
---
Why is Access able to read what "MSDASQL" cannot?
I am desperate - can anybody help?Thanks a lot!

As a database developer, I have so many databases that I "own" scattered across various servers that it''s getting difficult to remember where all of my databases reside. It doesn't work that the DBAs have taken to some very hard to remember server naming conventions.
I was going to create aliases via the configuration manager, but it turns out the DBAs overwrite my entries each night with THEIR aliases and they won't add any for my use.
So I decided to simply add some records to my host file so that instead of having to connect to "SERVER-AD_DADF-DAFDASS" I can just use "CustomerA".
This solution seems to work until I tried to access a linked server. If I connect to the main server via it's actual name, I can hit the remote/linked server with no issue. However, if I connect to the main server using it's alias, connection to the remote/linked server fails with: Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITYANONYMOUS LOGON'.
The linked server is set up to use current security context and I'm not logging into the alias any differently that I do when using the actual server name.

Hi,
I have setup a linked server to a DB2 database using "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers",
the connections works fine i am able to run select queries.
but the number of rows returned from the two following statements are different.
select * from linkedserver...tablename
select count(*) from linkedserver...tablename
e.g. The First statement returns 116 rows, whereas the second query returns count as 144....
I am a bit confused ?????
could anybody think of any possible reasons..
Cheers

I have a scenario where I want to make a linked server query and report using windows service account credential. I can able to do link query if I RDP into the Server where linked server established using the service account and run query successfully  but local client SSMS with my credential fails connecting linked server or querying. Looks to be a sql double hoping problem if so configuration each client domain account to enable delegation will be challenging as mentioned in the following articles instead service account only might work if possible.

Hi,
I have a msaccess linked server that I use to execute sql 2000 stored procedures from a front end in adp (access data project) format without any problem, if it is used on the same machine where the sql server resides (with any user logged on). In any other machine on the local network where I also need to use it, I get an ole/db error message saying that the microsoft jet database engine can not open the file because it's allready opened exclusivly or because it do not has permissions. I created the linked server with both UNC and normal path with the same result.
Thank's for all the help/clues you can give me.

Hi,I used sp_addlinkedserver to link to a remote server through ODBC.When I execute select count(*) from LinkSrv.SI.DBO.SIHeader in SQL QueryAnalyzer. It returns 13705 records. But when I execute select * fromLinkSrv.SI.DBO.SIHeader. It only return 885 records. If I specify somecolumns, select ODCOMP, ODPONO, ODVDCD from LinkSrv.SI.DBO.SIHeader.It returns more records, 1213 records.I guess there is something limit the return storage, but I can notfind it.Any suggestion will be appreciated. Thank you

Hello,
pls. let me know where I could post if this is the wrong place.
I have a Firebird 1.5 application. I created a linked server from my SQL
Server 2000 to the firebird database. In SQL Server Query Analyzer I get errors from various ODBC drivers with "normal" queryies like
SELECT LVNR FROM LINKEDSRV...LVVERW
Pls. note, this all works perfectly in MS Access databases with ODBC-Links to Firebird!
From a programmer of a commercial ODBC driver I heard that this problem may be caused internally by SQL Server, there may be no solution possible in the ODBC driver. One workaround would be to use the OPENQUERY-Syntax like
SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(LINKEDSRV, 'select LVNR from LVVERW ')
Are there any other solutions? Are there any known issues with firebird odbc-drivers and sql server? Are
there any known good drivers for the use with sql-server? What is the purpose of OPENQUERY - workaround ODBC problems? Are there any settings in SQL Server 2000 (2005 Express) that could help? Are there any settings in ODBC DSN that would help?
regards

I changed from Access97 to AccessXP and I have immense performanceproblems.Details:- Access XP MDB with Jet 4.0 ( no ADP-Project )- Linked Tables to SQL-Server 2000 over ODBCI used the SQL Profile to watch the T-SQL-Command which Access ( whocreates the commands?) creates and noticed:1) some Jet-SQL commands with JOINS and Where-Statements aretranslated very well, using sp_prepexe and sp_execute, including thesimilar SQL-Statement as in JET.2) other Jet-SQL commands with JOINS and Where-Statements aretranslated very bad, because the Join wasn´t sent as a join, Accesscollects the data of the individual tables seperately.Access sends much to much data over the network, it is a disaster!3) in Access97 the same command was interpreted wellCould it be possible the Access uses a wrong protocol-stack, perhapsJet to OLEDB, OLEDB to ODBC, ODBC to SQL-Server orJet to ODBC, ODBC to OLEDB and OLEDB to SQL-Server instead ofJet to ODBC and ODBC direct to SQL-ServerDoes anyone knows anything about:- Command-Interpreter of JetODBC, Parameters, how to influence thecommand-interpreter- Protocol-Stack of a Jet4.0 / ODBC / SQL-Server applicationThanks , Andreas

I am using SQL 2000 (Standard Edition, SP4) and have created a linked server to access a Access MDB file. When I run a simple query against that server, I get the error:
Server: Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
OLE DB provider 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0' reported an error.
[OLE/DB provider returned message: System resource exceeded.]
OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0' ICommandText::Execute returned 0x80004005: ].
I am able to connect to this same Access MDB file from another SQL server (SQL 2000 Enterprise Edition, SP4). I have compared the two servers and they both have the same version of MDAC (2.8) and the same version of the Jet OLE DB Provider.
Any idea why this would work from one server and not from the other. Also, I was able to perform the same queries from the first server a week back.
Thanks in advance for you help.

I'm using the import/export wizard and are trying to connect to another systems database Views and getting the following error
Cannot get the supported data types from the database connection “Dsn = TMS Live:Driver ={JADE ODBC Driver 6.1}
Additional information:
Unknown SQL type – 128.(system.Data)
I think the problem is that the system i'm trying to connect to is an object based system rather than relational based, hence having to import the views rather than tables
I am able to connect using the same DSN/driver in DTS SQL2000 which we currently use, but want to be able to move to 2005.
Any ideas on how i can connect?

if server 161 is principal and server 162 mirror, it connects ok, but
when I exchange server roles, connect fails (the error message is:
Cannot open database "TestDB" requested by the login. The login failed.
in LOGIN)
the connect string using OLE DB is:

error message is the same
when I try to connect using VS 2005 using connection string
Database=TestDB;User Id=test;Password=test;Server=10.0.1.161;Failover
Partner=10.0.1.162, it works OK
i have installed SQL server 2005 (on local - client machine) with SQL Native Client and also
SQL Server service pack 1
Is there any way how to connect from OLE DB?
Thanks
