Do I Need ADO 2.8 To Connect To SQL Server 2005 From Access?
Oct 26, 2006
We have just upgraded to SQL Server 2005 from 2000. We have an MS Access application that connects and links tables from the new SQL Server database. Users are getting errors when creating records for the first time on the subscriber databases. We have reseeded the primary keys on all the tables to no avail. The only thing we can think of that may be a problem is the version of ADO that we're using as a reference in the MS Access application. We have a reference to ADO 2.5 and don't know whether we should be using 2.8. Any suggestions? Thank you.
after successfully connect Access to the Server I want to add a table. I got an error message:
With this version of MS Office Access you are not able to make any drafts because this version of SQL server you are connected to does not support this. Check the MS Office update website for the newest downloads.
You habe connected to a version of SQL server which is newer than SQL server 2000.
Versions:
SQL Server runs on a MS Server 2003 SP1
Access 2003 (11.6566.6568 SP2) on an MS XP Pro SP1
all on actual patch level. Any ideas what's wrong?
I'm having a problem connecting with a Java application but I CAN connect using my .Net application - the user name and password are the same for both (using the same database on SQL Server Express 2005).
The error I get is: "com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: Cannot open database "CORNERS" requested by the login. The login failed." An interesing note - I get the same message if the database is not running.
SQL Server Express 2005 is installed in mixed mode.
Here is my connection string in the .Net appplication: <add key="connectString" value="Server=(local);UID=sa;PWD=myPasswd;Database=CORNERS" />.
Okay Ive managed to confuse myself pretty good.I have an aspx page that attempts to connect to an SQLEXPRESS instance and add data to a table.Code as follows:beginning of page<%@ page aspcompat=true enablesessionstate=false language=javascript %><!--#include file="adojavas.inc"--><%@ Import Namespace="System.Data.OleDb" %>I have a toolfunction that when called upon runs this:if (xco >= -180 && xco <= 180 && yco >= -90 && yco <= 90) { status = "Can't connect to database."; // create connection to database var connection; connection = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection"); connection.Open("Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Integrated Security=SSPI;Persist Security Info=False;Initial Catalog=OutdoorsExp;Data Source=\.pipeMSSQL$SQLEXPRESSsqlquery;"); status = "Can't access table."; // create recordset var recordset; recordset = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset"); recordset.Open("dbo.FishType", connection, adOpenDynamic); status = "Can't append new record, record set does not support AddNew."; // append record for clicked location if (recordset.Supports(0x01000400)) { status = "Can't append new record."; recordset.AddNew(); recordset.Fields("LongitudeI").Value = xco; recordset.Fields("LatitudeI").Value = yco; recordset.Update(); } recordset.Close(); // release the file connection.Close(); status = "Can't propagate changes to drawing."; // refresh drawing var document = mapserver.Document; var componentIndex = document.ComponentSet.ItemByName("FishTable Data Points Drawing"); if (componentIndex >= 0) { document.ComponentSet.Item(componentIndex).Refresh(); } status = xco.toString() + ", " + yco.toString(); }Unfortunately this gives me an error instead of transferring the value xco,yco to the SQL Tables LatitudeI/LongitudeI column.Ive tried many different connections strings, and have played myself into a state of confusion now :(.I get this error:[DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access denied.[COMException (0x80004005): [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access denied.]Ive tried named pipes and using IP to connect, and Im not 100% sure how to use SQL Server via "System.Data / System.Data.SqlClient".Any insights would be greatly welcomed!
I am trying to link SQL SE 2000 (Local server at head office) to MSDE 2000 (remote server). After creating the server group in local server, I try to register SQL server Computers (MSDE 2000) to place in it.
But I received this error message.
"SQL server registration failed because of the connect failure displayed below. Do you wish to Register anyway
SQL Server does not exist or access denied connectionOpen(Connect()).'"
I checked the setup for client and server utilities.
Client Utility is TCP/IP Server Utility is Named pipe
Please, help me. I don't know what went wrong here.
The server that needs to be moved: SERVER A. The databases which need to be moved (present in SERVER A): DB-A, DB-B. The SERVER A machine is in X domain
The target machines: Could be any of SERVER T1 This machine is in Y domain.
While we are trying to create a new server instance of the Server A in SERVER T1, we are getting an error message as shown below:
Reason: SQL server does not exist or access denied. (ConnectionOpen (Connect())
The server that needs to be moved SERVER A could not be mapped to SERVERT1.
Problem: The tables concerned present in the SERVER A and the production server are same. These could be extracted to SERVERT1 using the SQL Enterprise Manager utility. Views and Stored Procedures concerned are only present in SERVER A. Problem lies in copying them. Manually doing so could pose great risks. What is the plausible work around for this?
How viable is it to use MS Access as a front end (via ODBC) to a SQL Server2000 database?The users would access via the internet using a netgear vpn setup.Thanks,Paul S
I have been for years using the following code locally in native ASP (except different UID and PWD and file path for the msado15.dll) with SQL Server 2000 on XP to do my development and then I upload to the web site later (uses different objConn etc when live). I've now tried to use the same for SQL Server Express and Vista and always get the "does not exist or access denied" error ( 2147467259).
I only want to use SQL Server locally from the machine I'm developing on as I upload the tested "ASP" code to the server which runs it. The SQL Server Browser is running and I have checked the Firewall exclusions for sqlservr.exe. Also I installed it with out Windows Logon (same as I had for SQL Server 2000).
Any ideas, I tried using the Data Source=localhost instead of explicitly defing the path except that had no affect either, I also changed the rshstest_data.mbf to rshstest.mbf as well also to no affect as there appears a difference with this in 2000 and Express?
Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks..

I am trying to connect to my SQL Server 2000 db via asp.net. The aspx file uses a DataGrid, the aspx.vb code behind file gets the connection string from the web.config file. I tested my connection via ODBC, or SQL Query Analyzer just fine so I know the userid/password is correct.
this is the snipplet code from the aspx.vb code-behind file:
Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) _ Handles MyBase.Load Dim dbConn As OleDbConnection Dim dCmd As OleDbCommand Dim dReader As OleDbDataReader Dim strConnection As String Dim strSQL As String

Hi have created an application in asp.net to connect to a sql database. The reason why I am sooooo very confused is because the connection to the database works if i keep the project on my local machine and connect to the database on the server, but as soon as I upload the project to the server, I get the following error when I try to connect to the database: [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access deniedCan anyone tell me why this is happenning? - PLEASE - Any help will be appreciatedThanks, Danielle
ok im a CS student, installed visual studio .net, and im trying to connect to a ms sql database (Northwind), but I keep getting a error that "[DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen(Connect()).] SQL Server does not exist or access denied" in visual studio whenever I try creating a new database connection. How do I know if SQL server is installed on my system? cuz in my systray I see SQL server service manager, is that the same thing as SQL server? or do I need to download the full version or something? also could it be that a certain port on my system is not open that SQL server requires to be open? Thanks Ron
and i am having a problem which was encountered by youin the past. My actual proble is " I am having vs.net 2005 along with MS SQL Server 2000 (Server1) in my system. The MS SQL Server is database server for some of my collegues. Whenever i want to connect to my Server1 DBServer it is givng the following error message."
"[DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access denied"
and the other guys are able to connect to the same DBServer. and one thing i am able to connect to other DBServers which are in Lan..
I have been having problems after I make a connection from my application to a SQL Server 2005 database that is located on a different machine. After a few minutes it gives me the SQL Server Does Not exist or Access denied message. I am able to connect to it through SQL Server management studio. I am doing some data intensive operations by copying data from different tables on the remote server onto text files on my local machine. Any suggestions?
Lets get this out of the way first - I KNOW NOTHING ABOUT SQL SERVER, MSDE or MDAC
Sorry I don't mean to shout but I really don't know anything at all so please make your answers as simple as possible.
I have an application (Webmarshall) that has a SQL database from which certain reports are run. Whenever I try to run the reports it asks me for database details.
According to the application it is using LANCELOTWEBMARSHALLWebmarshall as the database
As this is all happening on one server, I presume it is local and not remote.
When I am presented with the dialogue box for the reporting module it asks for a server and a database, I have tried the following :
I have some SQL CE database .sdf file on my handheld, and I was trying to connect to that file via SQL Server 2005 Management Studio, and it does not work. I am wondering if there is any good tool that I can use on desktop to connect to sqlce .sdf database file on my handheld?
Hi, I have VS Pro 2005 and SQL Server Express 2005 installed on an XP Pro machine. When using VS 2005, in the 'Server Explorer' window I can see and attach to two SQL Server databases that I have set-up. But if I attempt to access the same databases from withn the 'Solution Explorer' window I get the following dialog box message,
" Required Component Missing (Dialog box heading)
Connections to SQL Server Files (*.mdf) require SQL Server Express to function properly. Please verify the installation of the component or download from the URL: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=49251 "
I have uninstalled and then reinstalled both VS 2005 and SQL Server Express twice but it has helped.
I don't understand why I'm getting this error because all of the server configuration tools and connection utilities seem to work fine but VS say's that SQL Server Express is not installed.
Thanks,
CLN
P.S. I had another application that required MSDE 2000A to be installed. When I removed the other application I also removed MSDE 2000A and that's when the problem began.
Hi! I understand that this topic is one of the most discussed topics ever. However i could not find the relevant information after going through (almost) all the posts so far. Hence this post. I am getting the 'SQL Server does not exist or access denied' error when I am trying to access SQL Server from a WINDOWS SERVICE. SQL Server and the Windows service are running on two different machines. (When they are on the same machine, it works). All the solutions I found so far are related to web apps. What should I do in the case of a windows service? My connection string uses SQL server authentication. (I tried with windows authentication. Its not working either.). Under what login does windows services run and how can I add it to valid SQL server logins?
I am having a problem with connecting to SQL Server 2005 database from Office Business Scorecard Manager 2005 (the connection string i am using is: provider=SQLOLEDB;Data source=server_name; Initial catalog=database_name). But the connection failed. Would please any experts here shed me any light on what is the problem and how to fix it then? As there is no any forum for Office Business Scrorecard manager 2005. Therefore I post my thread here as it is related to the connection to SQL Server 2005 database engine, thought here is the best place for this question.
Thank you very in advance for your kind advices and help. And I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.
I've used Sql Server 2000 and Visual Studio 2003 for a few years. I've started a new position and they have access to Sql Server 2005 Standard and Visual Basic 2005 Express which I'd like to use for a new project. So I installed Sql Server 2005 and then VB 2005 Express on my workstation. I didn't choose the Sql Server option for VB Express because I already had Sql Server 2005 Standard installed with a simple database created. I created a simple vb project that justs connects to the database but I get the following error.
Request for the permission of type 'System.Data.SqlClient.SqlClientPermission, System.Data, Version=2.0000, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=b77a5c561934e089' failed. I looked at permissions in the database and it looks ok. I'm the db owner and I'm using Windows Auth. My connection string is
I thought I'd look at the starter kit to get some ideas about what the problem is, but when I started the movie starter kit project, it was upset that I didn't have Sql Server 2005 EXPRESS installed. Yea, but I do have Sql Server 2005 Standard installed. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.
I've installed, with default settings, VS 2005 and Server 2005 Express and cannot get VS2005 to connect. This is the error:
Unable to open the physical file "..path...mdf". Operating system error 32: "32(The process cannot access the file because it is being used by another process."
I shutdown Server 2005 but that didn't change anything. Any ideas?
I have installed MS Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition on my Notebook (WinXP Pro SP2). And it's working fine. Then I tried installed SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP1. There is no error during installation and it seems to be working as I can see the SQL Server (MSSQLServer) service is running. As SQL server configulation manager., the protocal shared memory , named Pipes and TCP/IP are enabled.
But when I want to add connection using VWD 2005 by pointing to datasource (MS SQL Server database file and selecing file from .mdf file from SQL sample database file. Then test connection, I got a error that "An error has occurred while establishing a conneciton to the server. when connecting to SQL server 2005, this failure may be casued the the fact that under the default settings SQL server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Interfaces, error: 26- Error locating server/instance specified)
Can you please advise what the missing part of my configulation ?
I installed SQL 2005 including backward compatibility, MSDN libraries and SP2 a new Windows 2003 server (chose mixed mode authentication). Installation was successful and I then installed an off the shelf database with Windows authentication which also installed successfully. I created a new group in AD, added the database users into the group and gave db-owner rights to the group in SQL as advised by the installation guide. However, when I try to open the database it gives an error message saying "Cannot open database.[DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen(Connect()).] SQL server does not exist or access denied". I also tested it adding an individual user (myself) as a user to no avail. When I set up DSN in ODBC on my computer I can successfully test the connection but can't run the application. The connection is via TCP/IP. Any suggestions?
I am trying to connect through ODBC connectivity, but it will not allow me to do so. I have investigated this matter. It leads me back to the server, because as I was configuring my client side database. It kept asking for the DSN(datasource name), but I was unable to choose one because there wasn't one to choose. Which is my current dilemma, How can I do this and have it available to choose from the server to satisfy the Access database?
I went to the domain where the software resides but I don't know what steps to take? I also found an interesting piece on microsoft about Kerberos, but I can't follow along according to the instructions it has. I have Access 2003 & SQL SERVER 2005, HELP...!
Basically, this is right off the heels of the install. I setup the server without the connectivity, but it is running the current configuration.

all, I have the standard edition of SQL Server 2005 installed on a WIN XP Pro machine. I setup file and print sharing with my laptop. What do I need to be able to connect to SQL Server on my WIN XP Pro machine from my laptop. I hope to do most of my developing on my laptop. Do I need the developers edition of SQL server 2005 installed on my laptop?
