Hi, I had an old web application created during asp.net 1.1 and it have a connection problem with the sql server 2005 when it is mirgrated to a new webserver with dotnet framework 2.0 platform. I have enabled the remote access(TCP/IP and named pipes) in sql server 2005, did all the neccessary things, check whether the TCP/IP is enabled, named pipe is enabled... I created another web application using VS 2005. The database connection works perfectly well.This are the connectionString from the old web application.<appSettings> <add key="ConnectionString" value="Server=127.0.0.1;Database=somedb;User id=user; Password=somepassword; Trusted_Connection=False; POOLING=FALSE"/></appSettings> Thankyou in advance!
Hi,I need some help. I am getting this error after I complete the asp.net register control and click on the continue button. It crashed when it tries to get it calls this Profile property((string)(this.GetPropertyValue("Address1")));When I look at the stack, it is coming from my ProfileWrapper class which adds user address, city, etc.. from a class which inherits fromSystem.Web.Profile.ProfileBase. From the stack, it is calling the System.Web.Profile and crashed when it tries to open a connection atSystem.Data.ProviderBase.DbConnectionPool.GetConnection(DbConnection owningObject). I already migrated all aspnet_user, aspnet_roles, etc.. and don't get any connection errors. It is only when I try to get the profile data. This works on my pc, but throws an error on my lunarpage website.Any help is greatly appreciated.Thanks,AJAn error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.

An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this I use Microsoft Windows Vista Home Professional I have already installed to my computer Microsoft SQL Server 2005 and SQL Serves Express. I used to be successful to connect to the SQL Server but now I CAN NOT.
Not: I try to run SQL Server 2005 but I can not, even I logged on to my computer with an administrator rights. On the other hand I can start and stop the SQL Server Express easily.
As a result, how can I solve this problem. Thanks in advance. Bilgin Kılıç Additional Details

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.

Hello, I'm having trouble getting my Sql connections working 100%. My pages usually connect ok, but sometimes for a reason I can't understand I get connection errors. I always use the connection string in web.config so there's only one connection string for the whole project. I can be on one page, do nothing and just press F5, usually it works but sometimes it doesn't. It just throws this error. I've checked the surface area configuration and tcp/ip is of course allowed remotely. The weird thing is that it only happens sometimes, stops working for like 2-5 minutes and then starts working again. It might be some firewall related problem, but if so, what ports do Sql need to use tcp/ip connections? This might fix it but I don't think so, since it runs just fine on a Win2003 Server with the same firewall. On my local development machine (Vista) I get this problem. Below is the complete error message: "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) " Thanks beforehand for any and all replies!

Here is the webconfig file line.. <add name="AppointmentBooking" connectionString="Data Source=DESKTOPDESKTOP;Initial Catalog=AppointDB;User ID=***;Password=********;Trusted_Connection = yes" But when I try the register operation, I get following error.

No matter how I configure my link going thru EM I get a 7399 or 7303 error. First I tried to link to an Access 2000 db on a Windows 98 station. Next I installed Access 2000 on the test server with SS7, SP 2 (Windows NT 4, SP 5) and still the same errors. Is it possible to set up Access 2000 as a linked server on SS7? Can you give me the brainless man's walk-thru so I can get over this hump?
I have SQL Server 2000, and a mix of workstations running XP Pro and 2000.I have several Excel reports that link via ODBC to SQL.

Once we click OK on the error, it updates anyway. The ODBC driver for SQL Server is 2000.85.1117.00 on our XP machines. ANY ideas would be GREATLY APPRECIATED!TIA,Krista
I downloaded the AdventureWorks sample from the msft website and installed the sql exp. with advanced services and the toolkit. but an error occured while i opened the solution file "AdventureWorks Sample Reports.sln" and tried to test the connection. It said that it was prossibly caused by the default settings denying remote connections. But the fact is that I have already enable the remote connection, both for TCP/IP and named pipes in the surface configuration and restarted afterwards. How can I solve the problem?
Hi folks, I have been trying to figure out how to establish a remote connection to a database on SQL Server 2005, but no matter the approach, I'm met with this result: "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. error:26 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server."
The machine I have the server on is a OS Vista Ultimate, 2 gigs ram, 2.86 GHz processor. I'm trying to access from another 2 types of machines - both laptops with Vista Ultimate.
I have run the configuration tool on the server machine to allow local and remote connections for the database engine, as well for the browser, but to no avail.
I have the developer version of SQL 2005 installed on all three machines, but don't know if that is a reason for not being able to establish a connection.
I've tried to connect via a test application; also via Visual Studio, and also directly from SQL Server on the machines. None of the machines can access the database any of the others, regardless of the configuration.
They all display the very same error.
I'm really in need of some help with this, any ideas?

I recently re-formated my personal server and installed SQL Server 2005 on it instead of 2000 which I previously used. Now, I have imported the databases to the new SQL Server 2005, but I seem to get the following error when trying to access the database (from my asp.net page)
I've googled and searched the forum, without any luck. Now I was hoping for someone to answer this question, or perhaps guide me in the right direction.
Note: I've tried 5-6 different solutions that I found on the net, in vain.

All -- Please help. I have some questions about connection strings.
BACKGROUND...
Note that I am using the "SQL Native Client OLE DB Provider", SQL Sever 2005 Express, ASP.NET, C#.NET, and VS.NET 2005. Note that I do not want to use the "Attach a database file" type of connection string. Note that I am using the site http://www.ConnectionStrings.com as a reference. Note that this "Standard security" connection string...<add name="LocalSqlServer" connectionString="Server=MYTESTOFFICESERVERS;Database=MyDatabase;Uid=MyDatabaseUser;Pwd=MyDatabasePassword;" />...does not work and causes the following run-time error...A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the login process. (provider: Shared Memory Provider, error: 0 - No process is on the other end of the pipe.) Note that this "Trusted connection" connection string...<add name="LocalSqlServer" connectionString="Server=MYTESTOFFICESERVERS;Database=MyDatabase;Trusted_Connection=yes;" />...works but is less-than ideal because it uses a Trusted Connection rather than a Username/Password combination.
QUESTIONS... (A) What exactly does the error in Item 4 mean? (B) Do 4 and 5 imply that one must use a Trusted_Connection for all SQL Server 2005 Express connection strings when the database does not reside in the web application's App_Data folder or use a "Attach a database file" type of connection string? (C) Are there any alternatives? (D) What do you suggest?

Hello, I have a sql 2005 server, and I am a developer, with the database on my own machine. It alwayws works for me but after some minutes the other developer cant work in the application
He got this error
Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection. [CLIENT: 192.168.1.140]
and When I see the log event after that error, it comes with another error.
SSPI handshake failed with error code 0x8009030c while establishing a connection with integrated security; the connection has been closed. [CLIENT: 192.168.1.140]
He has IIS5 and me too.
I created a user on the domain called ASPSYS with password, then in the IIS on anonymous authentication I put that user with that password, and it works, on both machines.
I go to the profiler, and I see that when he browses a page, the database is accesed with user ASPSYS, but when I browse a page, the database is accesed with user SElevalencia.
Thats strange.
The only way that the other developer can work again on the project is to restart the whole machine. He has windows xp profession, I have windows 2000.
I downloaded SQL Server 2005 Express and some sample databases (incl. Adventureworks_data.mdf), but when I try to Add Connection in VS 2005 to point to this db and use the Test Connection button, it gives the error:
--------------------------- Microsoft Visual Studio --------------------------- 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) ---------------------------
I've tried setting the data source as either "Microsoft SQL Server Database File" or "Microsoft SQL Server", but get the same error.
Any tips on verifying SQL Srv Express is installed correctly? Any ideas on how to solve this problem?
I am having trouble connecting to SQL Server 2005 Express using ASP.NET written in VB.NET (1.1 Framework) in VS2003. I am trying to programmatically connect to the SQL Server. Since this is a redistributable web application and I don't want to rewrite the connection string every time I distribute a copy, is there any way to automatically get a connection string without prompting the end user for one? I can get the server name and the data base name, but I don't know how to get a username. It returns an error saying SERVERASPNET can't log on. Can anyone help?
