Failed To Connect To Localhost When Trying To Use Surface Area Configuration

Feb 13, 2008



Hello all, I hope someone can help me with this.

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.

Best, Amy

Alter Failed Trying To Modify Surface Area Configuration Xp_cmdshell - Help Needed

May 9, 2007

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?

SQL Configuration Manager And SQL Server Surface Area Configuration Tools

May 2, 2007

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.

Surface Area Configuration

Feb 28, 2007

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.



Any help would be extremely appreciated...

Admins, Surface Area Configuration

Apr 16, 2008

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.

Problems Using The SQL Server Surface Area Configuration

Jul 19, 2007

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.

Feedback is greatly appreciated.

Thanks

~ Regarding SQL Server 2005 Surface Area Configuration ~

Nov 9, 2006

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.

Best Regards,

Hans

Database Mail && Surface Area Configuration

Feb 5, 2008

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.

Thanks

Missing Some Components In SQL Server 2005 Surface Area Configuration

Feb 29, 2008

I was studying the SQL Server 2005 Surface Area Configuration tool to see how i could increase security.

I cannot find some of the components in “Surface area Configuration of Features�.

For example DAC appears to be missing. This is a dedicated administrator connection that allows an administrator to connect to a server.

Is this because I have SQL 2005 express instead of the professional version or could it even be to do with the operating system (XP home)

Only the following components are listed under "Database Engine":

Ad Hoc Remote Queries
CLR Integration
Native XML Web Services
OLE Automation
Service Broker
Xp_cmdshell


Thanks

Connecting Surface Area Configuration To Server On Clustered Server

May 8, 2006

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.

Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Connect To SSIS Service On Machine Localhost Failed

Nov 8, 2006

Greetings all,I cannot connect to my SSIS service from Management Studio. This is on my local machine, which is my "sandbox" and preliminary development platform.

There are slightly different error messages and extended information returned depending on whether I connect using "localhost" or my explicit machine name.

I have tried registering MSXML*.dll as suggested elsewhere in these forums. I've also tried the DCOM config changes suggested elsewhere in these forums (or someone's blog?) - can't find the link at the moment.

This is all on the same machine and I am a local admin on this machine.

Anyone seen this? Anyone have any suggestions. I'd appreciate any tips.

Regards,

Tom

Surface Area For Features Not Connecting

Oct 4, 2005

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!

Cannot Access Surface Area Config

Jan 26, 2007

Hi,

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:

SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)

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.

Any help or guidance will be greatly appreciated!

 Thanks!

Surface Area Config Problem . . .

Jun 29, 2007

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?



Thanks,

SQL 2012 :: Connect To Localhost But Not 127.0.0.1?

Jul 5, 2014

I am struggling to set a SQL Server Express for remote access...

Since it is the only instance on this server, I have set it up to use port 1433 by amending the IPALL entry of the Server Network Configuration, TCP/IP Properties.

I have also disabled "Shared Memory" and "Named Pipes" to leave only TCP/IP enabled as a server network config.
I have stopped the Browser Service because I think I don't need it if I use port 1433.

From the server itself, I can connect to my SQL Server through "localhostSQLEXPRESS" or "servernameSQLEXPRESS" but not from "10.xxx.xxx.xxxSQLEXPRESS" or "127.0.0.1SQLEXPRESS"

I suppose until I can access my server from itself using the IPAddress, there is no chance connecting remotely...

Hi!



When trying to log into Reporting Services in SQL Server 2005 Management Studio, I receive the following error message:



TITEL: Verbindung mit Server herstellen
------------------------------

Es kann keine Verbindung mit 'RD2MWD000349' hergestellt werden.

------------------------------
ZUSĂ„TZLICHE INFORMATIONEN:

Unable to connect to the remote server (Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.UI.RSClient)

------------------------------

No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it (System)

------------------------------
SCHALTFLĂ„CHEN:

OK
------------------------------


Has anybody had that problem before? Happens right after installation, no customisation of the SQL Server has been done yet. And I run the server on localhost.......

Cannot Connect To Localhost Using Windows Security Group As Login

Feb 19, 2007

I have a test environment set up at home with a small windows server 2003 Active Directory domain. I created a windows security group on the dc and added myself and another user to the group. I then use this group as a login for SQL Server and add the login to the sysadmin server role. This works exactly as I would expect on the Windows Server computer (which is also the Domain Controller) regardless of which computer I use to connect to this Windows Server computer. However, when I set up the exact same login on the local sql server instance of my client laptop running windows xp pro, the I get an error message (Login failed for user MYDOMAINdgolds...) when I attempt to connect to the local instance of SQL server, even though I am able to connect to the instance on the domain controller with no problems using this same client laptop under the same user account. The only way I am able to connect locally on the laptop under this account (which does not have local admin privileges on any box, for testing purposes) is to add the user account separately as a login, rather than as part of a group. I'm curious as to why being a member of a security group that is part of the sysadmin server role does not allow me to connect to the local instance of SQL Server on this client laptop. The windows server computer is running SQL2k5 Enterprise, and the client laptop is running SQL2k5 developer. Any insight into this would be appreciated.

Thanks,

Dave

Why Report Can Be Previewed But When Published To Localhost, Failed To Open

Jun 14, 2006

Hello, everyone

I generate a report (.RDL) using sql server 2005 reporting service. The tools is visual studio2005. I am runing it on windows server 2000 sp4.

Then I create a website and addin a page Default.aspx using reportviewer control to display the report (.RDL) I published in

Http://localhost/reportserver$Sqlexpress/Report Project1/Report1

The report simply just report a tables content and i can preview it by Ctrl+F5 without problem.

However, after I publish the website to localhost,which is Http://localhost/ViewReport/. I failed to open the report in http://localhost/viewreport/default.aspx The page is opened but there is a error message at the reportviewer portion.

" ASPNET user don't have permission to view the report.." something like that.

Anyone know what causes the problem?

I am thinking is it because I am using build in account "Local system" to run the Sql express 2005 Databaes and reporting service? But I have no choice, when I install the SQl express 2005, the only build in account I have is "Local System", but "Local Service " and" Network Service" is missing from my system. It is weird. Is it because of windows server 2000?

Any reply will be appreciated.

Login Failed For Localhost/aspnet - Please Help, Been Trying For Week To Solve

Nov 19, 2006

I am really at my wits end.  I have been trying for days to find an answer to this, and have tried so many things. 

I simply keep getting the error that localhost (Phantomlap in my case)/ASPNET cannot access the DB. This is a synopsis:.

Tools I am using:

V Studio 2005, IIS 5.1, XP Pro SP 2, SqlServer 2005 (using the EXPRESS server).

Configurations:


web.config:


<connectionStrings>
 <remove name="localsqlserver"/>
 <add name="localsqlserver" connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|aspnetdb.mdf;Integrated Security=true;User Instance=True"
   providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>

Website is stored at:

C:Inetpubwwwroot
(within that I have an App_Data folder with following permission):
(I allowed, via security, the ASPNET account read/write access)

SQL Server status:
Phantomlap/aspnet user is added
Phantomlap/aspnet security as just about everything checkmarked

Please note--I am using SQLServer Express--I am not entirely sure I added the ASPNET account correctly--is there a tutorial on how to do this?

Please help,

Kind Regards

DB Engine :: Cannot Connect To Configuration Database

Aug 10, 2015

When trying to open the sharepoint webpage I'm getting this error - cannot connect to the configuration database sharepoint 2010.Database is on SQL server 2008.Tried opening the site on server - got the same error.Googled and tried to start the mssqlserver services (browser and sql server) but they fail to start with error code 17058.

Googled what this error was about and some solutions led me to check the error log in event viewer. For mssqlserver I got following message in the event proverties window - Could not open error log file <path of log file> ''. Operating system error = 5 (access denied).When I tried to login on the sql server management studio, it does not let me login and gives error - 

I got to know that this can happen due to unexpected reboot of server. I checked my server and it had actually restarted unexpectedly.URL...

Cannot Connect To SQL Server 2005 DB From ASP.NET Configuration Tool

Sep 25, 2006

Hello,I am trying to connect to a DB, which is hosted on an SQL Server 2005 by a provider, using ASP.NET Configuration Tool. The result is the following error when I click on the Security Tab:---There is a problem with your selected data store. This can be caused by an invalid server name or credentials, or by insufficient permission. It can also be caused by the role manager feature not being enabled. Click the button below to be redirected to a page where you can choose a new data store. The following message may help in diagnosing the problem: 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) ---The hosting provider checked that my connection string is correct. They do not know why I get the error, though. Here is a relevant snippet from my web.config:<connectionStrings> <remove name="LocalSqlServer" /> <add name="LocalSqlServer"connectionString="Data Source=ABC;Integrated Security=false;Initial Catalog=ABC;User ID=ABC;Password=ABC"providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" /></connectionStrings>ABC is a mock :)Could anyone pls help? It is much appreciated.

Remote Connection Failed, Even With Proper Configuration

Jan 4, 2007

I am unable to connect to a SQL instance on the server from a workstation on the same network.

SQL Express SP1 is installed on the server, and allows mixed authentication. The instance name is <SERVERNAME>SQLEXPRESS.

Both the Database and Browser services are running.

Local and remote connections are enabled under SAC. I also used sp_configure to make the same changes.

All Protocols for SQLEXPRESS have been Enabled using the Configuration Manager.

The firewalls on both machines have been disabled.

Rebooting the server or restarting services after various changes hasn't affected the outcome.

Local connections made directly on the server are always successful using either authentication mode.

SQL Native Client Driver is installed on the workstation.

The workstation user is trusted. However, neither authentication mode is successful.

The connection string from the workstation uses the named instance above and the SQL Native Client driver.

Other services on the server are working and avaialble to the workstation, such as shared folders.

 

When I attempt a connection from the workstation I receive the following errors:

Connection failed:

SQLState: '08001'

SQL Server Error: -1

[Microsoft][SQL Native Client]SQL Networtk Interfaces: Error Locating Server/Instance Specified [xFFFFFFFF].

Connection failed:

SQLState: 'HYT00'

SQL Server Error: 0

[Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Login timeout expired

Connection failed:

SQLState: '08001'

SQL Server Error: -1

[Microsoft][SQL Native Client]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 setting SQL Server does not allow remote connections.

 

I have tried all of the recommendations I can find here without any luck. What am I missing?
