I have an ODBC connection setup for Oralce RDB. This works fine in say MSAccess. Now I would like to add a SQL Server Linked Server to this ODBC driver (it is for RDB not regular Oracle), but I am not able to get this to work. What is the Provider String and Location / Catalog for using this type of ODBC? I setup DSN as 'name', Provider String as 'UID=user;PWD=pass;' and it seems it tries to connect but gives an error. "%SQL-F-SCHNOTDEF, Schema USER is not defined"
Hi,I created a linked server for MS SQL Server 2005 Express to an Oracledatabase using the OLE DB Provider for ODBC. My ODBC Source uses theMicrosoft ODBC for Oracle driver.I'm using the OLE DB Provider for ODBC instead of the Oracle OLE DBproviders because those don't handle Oracle's Numeric Data Type well.When I set this up yesterday it worked fine. However I log in today andattempt to run sp_tables_exec against my linked server and get thefollowingOLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "WHATEVER" returned message"[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed".OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "WHATEVER" returned message"[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed".OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "WHATEVER" returned message"[Microsoft][ODBC driver for Oracle][Oracle]".Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_tables_ex, Line 41Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL"for linked server "WHATEVER".I can tnsping the server, and I have no trouble connecting with theOracle OLE DB providerI try to set up ODBC logging but the log file is blank -- same withattempting to set up logging for Oracle's network client. I've beendealing with crap like this the last 4 days, something works one day,then the next nothing (I've done nothing to change the configurationbetween these outages).Can anyone help me?ThanksFrustrated
I'm not able to see microsoft ole db provider for odbc drivers on sql server 2005. Anyone know which driver I should install to see it? I'm trying to create a linked server from as400 to SS2K5.
I cant find any odbc provider from my linked server.(SQL 2005) I am using MDAC 2.8 SP1 ON WINDOWS XP SP2 on my machine. What can i do to get odbc provider..?
I finally made data transfer between AS400 and SQL2005 work by using Microsoft OLE DB provider for DB2. I have tried other methods, some do not have build-in destination, some have unicode conversion problem. The only issue I have with this method is the peformance. For example, 300,000 rows load from AS400 take only 3 minutes with the ODBC connection in DTS, but more than 5 minutes with the microsoft OLD DB provider for DB2 in SSIS.
Does anyone have the same issue or figured out any tweaking that may speed up the transfer?

I was wondering if somebody could help me... the following error message appears when I run an asp page... I did a google search and nobody appears to have had a solution to the particular problem I have... it's completely baffling but I'm hoping it's a simple setting.
Firstly, I'm sure the coding the correct as the asp page runs on two different servers correctly. I recently got a new server and the script does not appear to work with the Date function in asp on this new server. I outputted the SQL to the browser and then ran it through the Query Analyser(QA) and guess what, it worked! But when I run the asp page the above error crops up... now when I run the SQL through QA and alter the date value in the format 'dd/mm/yyyy' the above error appears in QA.. if I've lost you at this point let me know...
The way ASP passes the Date value to my SQL DB appears to be confused and it's really confusing me as it works perfectly on two servers and not the new one... the new server runs newer versions of O/S and SQL so I'm not sure that is the case... I've changed the date settings on the server so they all three servers match each other... so I have no where else to turn... any help and pointers would be much appreciated!
Hi everybodyMy problem with sql server is the following one:I've got my backoffice manager application done with asp technologythat works on sql server installed on Win2000 and running on IIS5.what I've done is simply doing a backup of my db and moving the aspapplication on another server: Windows 2003 with IIS6 and sql serververs.8.Then I tried to set up everything as in the beginning on the previousmachine(Win2K), but I'm getting this error:Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '80004005'[DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]Server SQL inesistente o accessonegato.(translated would be "SQL Server doesn't exist or access denied")/sitowebsite/bom/login.asp, line 13....where in the line 13 is set the connection to the database:Conn.Open Application("DBsource")which should be driven by what is set inside the global.asa file:Application("DBsource")="Provider=SQLOLEDB;server=127.0.0.1;database=db_nam e;uid=db_uid;pwd=db_pwd;"Application("WS_DB_TYPE") = ( "SQLSERVER" )I tried to restore the database just not losing information and nothinghappens.I tried also to create a new user and modify the properties as itshould be from the previous settings in the db(db_owner,....etc), stillnothing.any clue is appriciated.many thanks in advance.
Hi guys, it's nice to join the forum. Can someone can help me?After 2 years of using a program, i suddenly got this error. I triedre-installing SQL but im still getting the message.Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80040e14'[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Cannot load the DLLxplog70.dll, or one of the DLLs it references. Reason: 193(error notfound).
Does the x64 version of SQL Server 2005 June CTP contain 64-bit versions of the SQL Server ODBC Driver and the OLE DB Provider? I am not interested in the .NET Managed Provider here, just the legacy ODBC and OLE DB drivers, and only 64-bit versions of those.
Since my foxpro OLE driver has been rendered useless by service pack 1 for sql server 2005 I am forced to use the .net data provider for odbc.
I am importing a number of tables.. each time I add the DataReader Source to the dataflow and connected it to the OLE DB Destination I get a load of the good old "cannot convert between unicode and non-unicode string data types" errors...
So I'm having to do derived column transforms, for each and every column that it coughs up on.
Using expressions like (DT_STR,30,1252)receivedby to convert the "recievedby" column to a DT_STR,
Some of these tables have 100 string columns.. so I'm getting a bit sick of the drudgery of adding all these derivations...
Is there any way to tell this provider to stop deciding that the strings in the foxpro tables are unicode?
Been serahcing frantically for this provider: "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers" for Windows Server 2003 x86. However I can't seem to find it. Supposedly MDAC 2.8 has it but when I go to install MDAC 2.8, nothing happens (this is acknowledged in fact in the support area on Microsoft and the given reason is that Win2K3 Server is already MDAC 2.8-compliant. So no new stuff needs to be installed. But alas this provider isn't in my list of available drivers).
Attempts to install any part of a lesser version of MDAC that says it has it are met with "Can't do that 'cause your current version of MDAC is higher that that."
I have been searching around all day on Msoft and other sites for such a beastie but like Brigadoon vanishing in the mist, it eludes me. Msoft's main MDAC page is here:
In Windows Server 2003 SP1 (x86) with Sql Server 2000 I could use the following connectionstring no problem DSN=Hello;
Now I am using Windows Server 2003 x64 and SQL 2005 and I get this error: Provider is not specified and there is no designated default provider.
If i try Provider=MSDASQL;DSN=Hello; i get Provider cannot be found. It may not be properly installed.
for DSNless this works fine: Provider=sqloledb;driver={sql server};server=(local);database=Hello;uid=sa;pwd=p wd;
but i am forced to use DSN as it is in a closed source application which uses set DSNs (the idea there being that you can change the connections how you like in ODBC)
This means that i need the ODBC provider name that will work in here: Provider=...;DSN=Hello;
and then to use whatever works in there as the "default provider" but i cannot find any information anywhere on how to do this!
when i am running a Stored Procedures, system always returns me error message below and Stored Procedures stops. please help

We are upgrading our server to 64 bit Server 2003 and SQL 2005 and have a problem with getting odbc connectivity for one application. We are working with a program called DataExtend for replication between sites. It is provided a part of the package from our software vendor. At present DataExtend does not have a 64 ODBC driver. Their 32 bit driver did install when the software was installed but did not setup correctly. We looked at a current 32 bit system and copied the ODBCINST.INI registry key to the new server making sure the paths were correct. When I go to create an odbc connection I receive "Setup Routines for DataXtend SQL Server ODBC Driver could not be loaded due to System Error Code 193". Does anyone know how to get these drivers to work with our 64 bit environment.
Hi All there!I am quite new in MS SQL administration so let me explain how it workon Your instances of SQL Servers.We have several DTS packages on our server, all of them managed onsome station which have seriously hardvare problem. So we wolud liketo catch two problems at one time and decided to develop systematicway of DTS manipulation.One of several aspects of this operation would be migration fromsystem ODBC data sources definitions into file ODBC sources ( .dsnfiles) in order to make them easier to manage ( backup for example,and even reusability on other workstations). All .dsn files should belocated on some network resource (\server\directory...) which wouldbe set as default ODBC directory in ODBC administrator on managementstation.When I begin to do so, then it apears that EM DTS Designer does notremember the path to the DSN files ( for example on design panel Ichose file dsn and by browse button point at the certain .dsn file,and then after DTS save the path disapears).Do You use this facility ( file .dsn) in DTS EM Designer, or maybe MShas it treated as usless, and nobody wants to use this?RegardsK
Basically, I am asking if it is possible to use SSMS (Query Analyzer window) with Informix. I am thinking linked server. If I have the ODBC driver installed on my workstation (win 7 pro VM workstation -- SSMS on same VM machine) is this doable? Do I just do the standard linked server routine or is there a special way (if it is even doable).
Two connections ==> one is using OLEDB connecting to SQL server 2005 and the other using ADO.NET's ODBC option to connect to mysql;
Two "Execute SQL Task" ==> one gets maximum ID(bigint) from a SQL server table and the other gets the maximum ID(unsigned) from a mysql's table and bind them to two variables ID1(string) and ID2 (int 64). http://forums.microsoft.com/TechNet/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=1902297&SiteID=17&mode=1 ;
And one DataFlow whose data source is DataReader Source which queries mysql "select * from table where ID > cast(@ID1 as signed) and ID <= cast(@ID2 as signed) ". To debug, I put a DataViewer between Data Flow Source and Data Flow Destination.
Run the package, I found no data coming into DataViewer and no error message as well. However if I remove the "<=" sign and change the DataReader Source query to "select * from table where ID > cast(@ID1 as signed)", It works perfectly. Initially I thought it's variable @ID2's issue. But if I replace "<=" sign with ">=" sign in the query ==> "select * from table where ID >= (cast(@ID2 as signed) -100)", there is no problem. After tried many times, I found that query just doesn't work with "<" sign or "between". Plus the result of running package tells it's successful but just no records got inserted into Data Flow Destination.
I have an issue using parameterised reports connecting to Oracle using "ODBC" and "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle" using parameteried reports. The following error is generated "ORA-01008 not all variables bound (Microsoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle)" and a similiar one for ODBC. It works fine for simple reports. Do these 2 drivers have issues passing parameters for a remote Oracle query? Thanks.

It tries connecting to SQL Server 2005. There is no SQL Server 2005 in that system. There is only SQL Server 2000.
I have the aspx code in my local system and the database in another machine.
Could Someone please help me out in solving this problem.
I realised this has been done to death, and so much information out there but I am still in a quandry.
I have had to rebuild my computer.
This is what I did
XP machine using SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition using Windows Authentication NZ6(MSSQLSERVER)
straight default install all the way
unfortunately when ready to run reports from my instance(computer) I received the error as in provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server
thought I had it all okayed but obviously something not right
so ended up unistalling then - did the following:
Load SQL Server from disc1 and start install failed on alter Counter Registry key error fixed this from KB article (known error that can happen) restarted Went to Windows Update check IIS is installed - tick is on - IIS - admin tools - make sure asp2 is associated - yes ok Then back to install sql server - there is no instance set up yet Disk 2 and setup .exe
All ok on Reporting Services, Analysis etc.
But once again all seems fine but still getting the error:
connection is all fine in Management Studio - eg I can see tables etc connection is all fine in Business Intelligence - eg I can preview my reports I then can deploy up to - NZ6 open NZ6 eports report is there fine - but just errors
some simple little tick that I have not done!!
I seem to have checked and rechecked everything and obviously doing another re-install does not seem a logical step from here. I will continue to check but if someone jump in and advise please would be great.
