I want to send mails from SQL Server 2005 Management Studio Express for which I referred to the article at http://www.databasejournal.com/features/mssql/article.php/3626056. I could successfully do the steps from step 1 to step 6 listed at the above URL. In fact, when I sent a test mail (as cited in step 6), SQL Server displays the message Mail queued though the mail didn't get delivered. The mail server address I am using is smtp.mail.yahoo.co.uk.
But when I expand the Management node in the Management Studio Express GUI, I don't find Database Mail as a child node. In fact, there are only 2 child nodes under the Management node - SQL Server Logs & Activity Monitor.
Why isn't Database Mail listed under the Management node? What am I missing here?
Also when I open Surface Area Configuration & then click Surface Area Configuration for Services and Connections, the following error gets generated:
Computer localhost does not exist on the network, or the computer cannot be configured remotely. Verify that the remote computer has the required Windows Management Instrumentation components and then try again. (SQLSAC)
Additional Information:
The type initializer 'System.Management.ManagementPath' threw an exception. (System.Management)
Unable to cast COM object of type 'System.Management.WbemDefPath' to interface type 'System.Management.IWbemPath'. The operation failed because the QueryInterface call on the COM component for the interface with IID '(38C15AF2-736C-477E-9E51-238AF8667DCC)' failed due to the following error: No such interface supported (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80004002 (E_NOINTERFACE)). (System.Management)
When I click Surface Area Configuration for Features, it generates the error cited above but from the first bulleted list.
How do I overcome this error? I confirmed that Windows Management Instrumentation is running by opening Services from Control Panel ---> Administrative Tools.
I am on WinXP Pro SP2. Please note that I also have SQL Server 7.0 installed in my machine which is a standalone m/c.
The operation system is windows xp, and before i installed the SQL SERVER2005 the SQL SERVER2000 had installed. the course of installing the SQL SERVER2005 has no error at all. but i can not find the Database Engine under MSSQLSERVER from surface area configuration ============== thank you in advance for any help
I have just finished installing SQL 2005 Ent Edition on Win 2000 Adv Server, SQL2005 SP2, and SP2 Hotfix KB934458. After the installation, I could see and configure all services via SQL Configuration Manager and SQL Server Surface Area Configuration tools. This worked for a couple of days and now both configuration tools no longer detect SQL2005 components. SQL Server Surface Area Configuration issued an error that said "No SQL Server 2005 components were found on specified computer. Either no components are installed, or you are not an administrator on this computer. (SQLAC)". SQL Configuration Manager did not list any installed services. I don€™t know what caused this. Anyone has any idea? Please help! Below is the Installation Report which shows installed components.

The following components are installed on this server

Hi, we are having a strange problem when trying to configure the surface area of my sql server 2005. When we open the tool the only nodes that appears are: Reporting Services and Integration Services. But the Database Engine node is not showing. What do we have to do to access the Database Engine node and configure Remote Connection.
Up til now i've been working with Access, i have only got a few weeks experience with SQL, so dont eat me. I set up a SQL Database, and placed it into my site, etc, set up all the connection strings. It connects fine, but cannot log in. It tells me; Cannot open database "C:USERSJAREDDESKTOPSTYXSTYX - BUILD 2APP_DATASTYXDB.MDF" requested by the login. The login failed.Login failed for user 'Webdev01Jared'. I'm running Vista (x86), and SQL Server 2005 Express SP2, and i'm aware that Vista by default does not automatically enable remote access in SQLExpress for local admins. So i go into Surface Area Configuration. I've read about it, and it's two steps, Click "Add New Administrator", then select the priveleges in the left box and click the button to put them in the right box. Simple enough, and it works, sure, click the button, it moves across, done. But. Hit OK. It's done nothing, i still cant connect, and the cherry on top; open up the SAC again to check and there is nothing in the right box. It's exactly how it was before i changed it. The problem is definitely this, and not the account, as i can log in for SQL Management Studio just fine, with the same windows authentication credentials. Thanks in advance.
I am currently running a Windows Vista Enterprise OS platform using SQL Express, whenever i add a user to the administrator group using the SQL Server Surface Area Configuration UI, each time i click on the link to add New Administrator, the previous administrator i just added still appears on the left - just as if i never added this user previously.
Is there a way around this issue? or is this a SQL Express problem, because i also tried doing it with SQL Server Enterprise edition on a Win2K3 SP2 box and it gives the same results.
Sorry for the annoying. I would like to the configuration settings for the surface area. There's an option which able to let us change computer (whether is local computer or remote computer). Let say I put my own computer's name (Hans as example) for configuration as the remote compute, it's work fine to me. However, if I put my remote computer's name, it displays this error message to me.
Error :
Computer Tomato does not exist on the network, or the computer cannot be configured remotely. Verify that the remote computer has the required Windows Management Instrumentation components and then try again.
I am sure that the remote computer is working since I am able to ping the remote computer and test on telnet as well. But why it seems that surface area can't detect my remote computer. Hope can get some resistance from everyone here. Thanx alot.
This is a new SQL Server 2005 cluster that we just installed for the first time, with SP2. I am trying to use a stored procedure with xp_cmdshell to run a script to backup the databases. I get the following error: locked access to procedure 'sys.xp_cmdshell' of component 'xp_cmdshell' because this component is turned off as part of the security configuration for this server. A system administrator can enable the use of 'xp_cmdshell' by using sp_configure. For more information about enabling 'xp_cmdshell', see "Surface Area Configuration" in SQL Server Books Online.
So I started Surface Area Configuration on the local SQL Server itself, and clicked on "Surface Area Configuration for Features". I then got the following error: "Failed to connect to localhost. (Mirosoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo) Additional information: 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) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 2)
I am logged onto the server as a user with Admin privs; I installed SQL Server using that id. I am logged in via remote connection, so I know it allows remote connections... and I am logged into the server itself when I try to run the tool, so I don't understand why it's saying that it's trying to connect remotely.
Has anyone else ever experienced this problem? Thanks for any help you can give.
I installed SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition (64-bit) and then applied SQL SP2. When I launch the "SQL Server 2005 Surface Area Configuration" and choose "Surface Area Configuration for Features" I'm trying to enable xp_cmdshell.
After ticking the checkbox, and clicking Apply, I receive the error below. Anyone have any ideas on how to fix this?

I've run into a problem after upgrading production servers running under Microsoft Cluster Server, Windows Enterprise Server 2003 SP1, and SQL Server 2005 SP1 Enterprise Edition.
Once I completed the upgrade and applied the patch, I needed to examine the values set in the Features component of the Surface Area Configuration tool. The tool attempts to connect to localhostinstancename, but reports 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: SQL Network Interfaces, error:26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)(Microsoft SQL Server)
I'm logged into the virtual server via Remote Desktop, but the SAC tool thinks I'm logged into the physical server supporting the virtual server. I seem to be caught between a rock and a hard place here, as I can't enable remote connections without first gaining access on the server itself.
Hello, I've installed SQLServer2k5 Sept CTP with the following config: W2K SP4 Pro, SQL2K5 Std Sept CTP complete clean install. Everything works except SAC for features. I get the error below when trying to start it. SAC for Services & Connections connects without problem and has local & remote connections via both TCP/IP and Named Pipes enabled for the server, and local & remote connections enabled for analysis services. All SQL2K5 components & services are started in the Services control panel. I've looked at port useage, wondering if some other process is using the port that SAC for features is pinging, but since SAC for Services & Connections works fine that doesn't seem to be culprit. I also get an error when running the Tuning Advisor, saying it can't connect, but demoted that to just a warning by closing some extraneous connections to the servere (had >10 open). Still get a warning, but it doesn't prevent the Tuning Advisor from completing. I've tried turning on and off various services, from Remote Registry Service to IIS, but no luck. Anyone know what else I chould check to troubleshoot this? Thanks! Failed to connect to server localhost
I'm posting this in the Setup forum as I think the problem relates to my SQL Server Configuration. Being new to server management pls ask for more info if I don't explain this clearly enough, I'm running out of idea.
Here's the set up:
Windows Server 2003 Web Edition SP2 SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition SP1
When I try to run apps I get the following message:
I've found some great notes on the TechNet forums explaining this error and how to resolve it by configuring the Surface Area Tool... remote connections etc
But, this is where I draw a blank as I cannot access the Surafce Area Configuartion for Services and Connections because certain components are not installed, or I do not have admin rights. I definitly have the admin rights, but have no idea where to start looking for aforementioned components.
During the SQL Server install I recevied the warning:
SQL Service Edition System Compatibility - Some components of this edition of SQL Server are not supported on this Op system.
It sounds pretty generic and doesn't offer anymore details, but could this be effecting it?
I've also noticed that when I open SQL Server Configuration Manager and click on SQL Server 2005 Services nothing appears in the right-hand panel??? I'm sure there should be???
I've been all over TechNet & Books online and cannot find any reference for what I'm experiencing.
Being very new to SQL Server, I have to ask - when I try to connect to SQL Server 2005 using TCP/IP I cannot. To accomplish this I was directed to use the Surface Area Configuration utility.
When I do this, I do not see the Database Engine the docks reffer to - any help/comments/suggestions?
I get this problem when tryoing to connect to the surface area configuration for services & connections As well as for features. However I can connect via another computer and change the options accordingly but I just can't do it locally from the server ? Does any one know why please, the links in the message don't help ?

I am finding an error in SQL Server Agent log which is related to database mail configuration. Can any one please guide me how to configure the database mail configuration to transfer the data from SQL CE to SQL server.
Has anyone been able to configure Database Mail and successfully send an email message? I set it up this afternoon, but all my messages are sitting in the sys_mailitems table of the msdb database.
I'm having trouble in configuring Yahoo's SMTP for Database Mail. Here is my current settings:

When I tried sending a test email, it didn't work. But when I changed my SMTP to use Gmail, it worked!
surface some data stored in an Access database via SQL Server, ultimately to be consumed by SharePoint. Â
I understand how to push existing tables to SQL Server as new tables. Â In my case, what I am hoping to do is to link an Access query with a table in SQL Server, and have that table be updated each time the query is run (or even each time the database is updated). Â
I can't seem to get mail generated by SQLMail to actually send. Here is what I did. 1. Installed Outlook 2000 and configured it. I was able to send mail. 2. When into Enterprise Mgr and added the profile. It tests ok. 3. When into Query manager and did xp_sendmail 'rutherb2@nationwide.com','test' 4. Message says 'Mail sent', but nothing is sent..
However if I open Outlook and do a "Send and Receive" the mail gets sent.
My question is : Is this the way it is suppose to work? Do I have to have the Outlook client running on my server to get the mail to send? What am I missing? Thanks in advance.... !boB

I would be very grateful if someone could help me. I have very little SQL knowledge and would like a push in the right direction:
I have a application that receives GPS lattitude and longitude values. I was originally using file base system where I would load all the points from the file into memory and do the calculations in the software but I now would like to use SQL Server Express.
I have created the tables:
[Table 1] GPS Points: id int Primary key latitude real longitude real desc nvarchar(128)
[Table 2] GPS Locations (comprises of one or more GPS Points from [1] above) to form a boundary: GPS Locations database structure is: locationId int primary key gpspoint1 int gpspoint2 int gpspoint3 int gpspoint4 int desc nvarchar(128)
Table 2 contains up to 4 gps points ids from table 1 and GpsPoints1-4 can be null.
I have created the tables and I have inserted GPS values into both tables.
My problem: I am trying to compare the current Lat/Lon (which are passed into the SQL fuction as two real datatype value) and I want to return all Table 2 locationId's where the current Lat/Lon are withing GPSPoints1-4 area. gpspoint1, gpspoint2, gpspoint3, gpspoint4 reference an id from Table 1. I am not sure how I can do this?
I have implemetned a SQL function that returns all points from Table 1 that are within the predefined radius of 1.5 miles from the current Lat/Lon values passed in.
where 3963.191 is earths radius in miles, radius is 1.5, @LatDec is the current latitude and @LonDec is the current longitude
Uses a lot of Trig and (for me) is quite complicated. This works very well and is very accurate. It also only uses a single table. I want to be able to now look for the current position within a boundary of 3 or more positions from Table 1 and this is where I am struggling?
Also, any suggestions on how I could do this better would be very much appreciated?

I want to send a simple mail using DATABASE MAIL feature in SQL SERVER 2005.
I've defined a public profile. I've enabled Database Mail stored procedures through the Surface Area Configuration .
but I can't send a mail with sp_send_dbmail stored procedure in 'msdb' database .
when I execute sp_send_dbmail in the Managment Studio the message is "Mail queued" but the mail is not sent.
Could it be related to Service Broker?Because the Surface Area Configuration indicates:'this inctance does not have a Service Broker endpoint'.If so, how should I make an endpoint?
here is the log file after executing sp_send_dbmail:
1) "DatabaseMail process is started"
2) "The mail could not be sent to the recipients because of the mail server failure. (Sending Mail using Account 2 (2007-03-08T00:49:29). Exception Message: Could not connect to mail server. (No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it)."
The DatabaseMail90.exe is triggred ,so the mail is transfered to the mail queue but DatabaseMail90.exe couldn't give the mail to SMTP server.The promlem is what should I do to make DatabaseMail90.exe able to connect to the server?
I have a SQL Server database. The data from a table is populated in the table and can do a regular display query on a record without issue.
Problem is when I pull the data into a form the data doesn't show up in some form fields for editing.
I am building a backend for the manager to make updates and changes and this is vital. Does anyone know if it has something to do with a database setting or has had a similar issue in the past?
The reason I think its a database setting is becuase the same table converted into MS Access has no problem populating the text boxs and text areas.
