I am trying to connect to Microsoft SQL Server 7.0 - Standard Edition through Query Analyzer. I am doing multiple query windows in order to have multiple connections to SQL Server. I cannot seem to get anymore connections than 10. I have increased the licenses to 20 and I have tried to disable and stop the License Service. I have rebooted the server after making these changes and neither seems to work, I cannot establish more than 10 connections. Can somebody help me? Thank You.
Hi there, Here we have got a asp.net application that was developed when database was sitting on SQL server 6.5. Now client has moved all of their databases to SQL server 2000. When the database was on 6.5 the previous development team has used oledb connections all over. As the databases have been moved to SQL server 2000 now i am in process of changing the database connection part. As part of the process i have a login authorization code. Private Function Authenticate(ByVal username As String, ByVal password As String, ByRef results As NorisSetupLib.AuthorizationResult) As Boolean Dim conn As IDbConnection = GetConnection() Try Dim cmd As IDbCommand = conn.CreateCommand() Dim sql As String = "EDSConfirmUpdate" '"EDSConfirmUpdate""PswdConfirmation" 'Dim cmd As SqlCommand = New SqlCommand("sql", conn)
cmd.CommandText = sql cmd.CommandType = CommandType.StoredProcedure NorisHelpers.DBHelpers.AddParam(cmd, "@logon", username) NorisHelpers.DBHelpers.AddParam(cmd, "@password", password) conn.Open() 'Get string for return values Dim ReturnValue As String = cmd.ExecuteScalar.ToString 'Split string into array Dim Values() As String = ReturnValue.Split(";~".ToCharArray) 'If the return code is CONTINUE, all is well. Otherwise, collect the 'reason why the result failed and let the user know If Values(0) = "CONTINUE" Then Return True Else results.Result = Values(0) 'Make sure there is a message being returned If Values.Length > 1 Then results.Message = Values(2) End If Return False End If Catch ex As Exception Throw ex Finally If (Not conn Is Nothing AndAlso conn.State = ConnectionState.Open) Then conn.Close() End If End Try End Function ''' ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- ''' <summary> ''' Getting the Connection from the config file ''' </summary> ''' <returns>A connection object</returns> ''' <remarks> ''' This is the same for all of the data classes. ''' Reads a specific connection string from the web.config file for the service, creates a connection object and returns it as an IDbConnection. ''' </remarks> ''' ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Private Function GetConnection() As IDbConnection 'Dim conn As IDbConnection = New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection Dim conn As IDbConnection = New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection conn.ConnectionString = NorisHelpers.DBHelpers.GetConnectionString(NorisHelpers.DBHelpers.COMMON) Return conn End Function in the above GetConnection() method i have commented out the .net dataprovider for oledb and changed it to .net dataprovider for SQLconnection. this function works fine. But in the authenticate method above at the line Dim ReturnValue As String = cmd.ExecuteScalar.ToString
for some reason its throwing the below error. Run-time exception thrown : System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException - @password is not a parameter for procedure EDSConfirmUpdate. If i comment out the Dim conn As IDbConnection = New System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection and uncomment the .net oledb provider, Dim conn As IDbConnection = New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection then it works fine. I also have changed the webconfig file as below. <!--<add key="Common" value='User ID=**secret**;pwd=**secret**;Data Source="ESMALLDB2K";Initial Catalog=cj_common;Auto Translate=True;Persist Security Info=False;Provider="SQLOLEDB.1";' />--> <add key="Common" value='User ID=**secret**;pwd=**secret**;Data Source="ESMALLDB2K";Initial Catalog=cj_common;' />
My site works fine in VWD2008 express, but I get this error when I try to use it on my live website. 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. 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.
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.

Hi,I have SQL Server Express Edition. I tried working out some ASP.NET Labs in my local system. Here is the link of the Virtual Lab which I tried. http://msevents.microsoft.com/CUI/WebCastEventDetails.aspx?EventID=1032286906&EventCategory=3&culture=en-US&CountryCode=USI recieve this error in my local system. 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 tried working out solutions from various websites. But the no solution is effective. Could anyone help me in solving this issue.
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.
could anyone guide me on how to allow, ceate rule for sql server 2005 remote connections to work. i already configured my sql server to allow remote connections and also my router, it is only in isa that is blocking the connections.
I need to put a script together that would tell me how many connections to SQL Server there are at any given time. Which table would store this info? Thanks.
Hi Guys need your expert advise on this. in my previous company in our application we used to have 1 sql server connection open all the time to access database .
in current company ,framework does it differently like opening connection to database only when needed and closing it straight away.when you look at profiler when doing multiple things in our app one will see many connections opened by our application.
my question is which approach is good for performace ? Thanks for advise.
I have to install an application on 5 different client machines. I have 1 Server machine. As of now, what is happening is, only 2 of the client machines are being able to connect to the Server Machine.i.e. only 2 client machines are detecting the server. The other machines are not even registering the server.
Let me know if there is any property or setting taht needs to be tweaked for this.
I am using For Each container loop to read set of data in to variables and populating my WMI reader Task. WMI reader task uses WMI connection. I am assigning the Server Name for the WMI connnection during the run time of for each loop.
Expression for WMI Connection is like that
Expression
ServerName @[User::WMIConnection]
I have verified the my @[User::WMIConnection] variable has the proper server name like \servername but it is not poulating the serverName filed of WMI connection.
I also tried to assign the ServerName property using Script Task but DTS.Connection("conn") does not have the ServerName property.
What are the maximum number of user connections achievable for sql server 2000 (w/ win 2000 adv server), and how are they managed - compared with sql server 7.0 (w/ win nt 4.0)? Our group is looking at upgrading our dbase server from sql server 7.0 to sql server 2000.
This is probably a really obvious question but I have been struggling with answering it for about two days now. (I may even be in the wrong forum) I work in a company with an internal network set up. I have been trying to connect to our website via FTP and it has worked ... well it did in the beginning. I think the server that our website is hosted on is a Unix server - this is a guess from reading the FTP transcripts of the various programs I've downloaded and tried out in an attempt to connect to it.
What happened:
I was working on an .ASP page in Dreamweaver, hit save without thinking, realised I wanted to make a few additional changes before uploading it onto the server, cancelled the transaction and voila. I haven't been able to connect to the remote server since.
Depending on the FTP program that I am using, I get a connection error along these lines:
- "Connection to the server was reset" "The server may temporarily be down or unavailable or not accepting connections"
I am a big newbie at this. I have turned off the windows firewall and tried turning on and off passive IP. I can connect from home but not from inside the building which has me think this has to do with a stray setting somewhere. My housemate suggested I try using the "telnet" command from DOS and see can I get any sort of connection from work. If I can't, he said, it's probably a firewall on the internal network itself.
Hi folks,Perhaps every 100 calls to DB i get 1 error message like this:"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 am using SQL 2000 and am wondering why this happens.I appreciate your help.Leo.

seems a lot of people are having this problem but none of the solutions i tried has worked so far. I want to develop asp.net applications at my home pc running Win Xp pro SP2. I use MSDE as the database server and manage it with sql server enterprise manager. I do all the programming in Delphi 2005 and I run IIS 5.1, all on the same PC. Now...if I build a test windows application and try to connect to the database with a connection object or UDL file, winnt authentication works. If I then try to connect through an asp.net application, where I have the connection string coded in the .aspx file I either get a "login failed" or "not trusted sql server connection". I have tried to set up login accounts on Enterprise manager both as winnt authentication or sql server authentication but none has worked with asp.net (no problem with windows apps). Funnilly I don't have that problem at work, though the sql server at the office is on a separate pc. I know many people face this problem, can anyone help me out? thanx in advance
I am using Access 2000 to link tables from SQL Server. The tables are linked using ODBC DSN`s. I am running a query to return some rows to Access, but once I have returned the rows, I want to drop the linked table connection to SQL Server, because it is locking a table on the server. I think I need to write a bit of VBA code, but I don`t know where to start. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
Today, my server began refusing connections for no apparent reason. I'm getting 2 different errors. 1. Server rejected the connection; Access to the selected database has been denied. (from one remote DSN) 2. Client unable to establish connection. (from another DSN)
It seems as if my server has lost it's mojo!!?? I have no clue as to why this is happening all of a sudden. Please help.
thanks,
Joe
Also, is there a better way I can trace my SQL Server ODBC errors (other than through Profiler)?
We have an application that runs against SQL Server 6.5 or 7.0. At one location that was recently upgraded from 6.5 to 7.0 we have a problem with the user connections to SQL Server not terminating when the user terminates the application. At some point, after several days, they are forced to bounce the server to eliminate the errant connections becasue SQL Server tells them they have the maximum number of connections. This only happens at one site and it happened under 6.5 as well. At all other sites, the connections terminate when the application terminates. Any ideas????
I am using SQL Server 6.5 (service pack 3) on an NT 4.0 (service pack 3). It is being used as the back-end database server for Solomon IV (accounting package from Solomon Software). The client machines eventually lock-up after limited activity. The first user to lock seems to do so when they issue a save, once they are locked all other users lock. In SQL activity log the processes has several tables locked. If this process is killed, the other users seem to free up. The only error message found in SQL errorlog is an ODS Unable to write to ListenOn "pipe.sqlquery". This message seems to have been occuring for some time though (prior to the lock-up problems).
The only thing (I`m aware of) that changed is many of the clients where put on a 100Mb LAN and the database was expanded from 1G to 2G because it ws almost full.
Is it possible to determine the maximum number of connections permitted by a database? Is this value configurable? How do I figure out the maximum number of allowed connections on a SQL Server 2005 db?
I have a Foxpro app with a SQL Server 7 backend. The Idle Connect setting on VFP is set to indefinite. I'm having some connectivity issues where the SPID for the client seems to disappear from the active SQL processes on the server when the client sits idle for a while (10 minutes or so). On some workstations, resuming activity at the client results in the SPIDs reappearing as if they were always there with no problem. On others, the connection is not reestablished and the client gives a 1526 (VFP ODBC) error.
Does anybody know why this might be? Are the SPID connections cached at both sides and if so, how?
Hello Folks,Our web based application accesses our SQL Server 2k database using aconnection pool of about 150 connections through a BEA JDBC driver.We recently had a situation where one of our app servers lostconnectivity to the database server (the BEA error logs indicated thefollowing:java.sql.SQLException: [BEA][SQLServer JDBC Driver]A problem occurredwhen attempting to contact the server (Server returned: Connectionreset by peer.)We're trying to eliminate possibilities and I was wondering underwhich circumstances would SQL Server close one of these pooledconnections. Any ideas?Thanks in advance...Joe
Hello,Newbie of sorts. Been reading up on best practices though.I'm trying to optimize performance to the SQL DB vs. the Web server andan ASP application. I've read that you're supposed to open late/closeearly which makes sense. In the past I'd created a connection and thrownmany queries against the same connection. Now, I'm working with arecordset object which is returned and the ActiveConnection is closedafter each query. My impression was this was faster ... not sure though.That might be more of an ASP question but let me elaborate on the SQLserver side:I was using the SQL Profiler to try to watch connections. I wasn't evensure what fields to show, but I was watching SPID's and Event Classesfor the user in question. I'd see Audit Login and Audit Logouts, butwasn't sure how they matched up.- When I had a single connection object with many queries against them,there'd be multiple SPID's showing up as Login and Logout.- When I had multiple connections each with a single query, there'd onlybe a single SPID wich each sql query being shown.My initial assumption was that each SPID was a connection, but I'mthinking that's not quite right.Is there a way to watch connections come and go? I'm just using anordinary ODBC connection for now.Any help would be appreciated enormously. Many thanks,rob
The problem is that we are having Problem while making the remote Connection to the Sql Server 2005
Basically We are having a problem connecting to SQL2005 through a package remotely. when we try to connect to a remote data base, we get the following error
[Connection manager "CRA LRRS Development DB"] Error: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Login timeout expired". An OLE DB record is available.

Although by running the configuration manager on the Remote DataBase System we have enable the Remote Connections through name and IP both but still it cant access it.
Please tell us the possible consequences and provide us the feedback.
I will be really obliged if any of you can provide us the feedback on it as soon as possible.
