SQL2000 PE Cannot Connect To SQL7 Server
Nov 13, 2000I have setup SQL2000 Personal edition on my notebook.
I cannot connect to an existing SQL7 server on the network anymore. I
used to run SQL7 Desktop edition which ran just fine.
I also noticed that when I start my machine it take about 2 minutes
until the SQL service is started.
Any ideas why this is not working anymore?

Can't Connect To SQL2000 On Windows 2003 Server Through UDL Of VB6 Component Of ASP Application
Feb 1, 2008I have problem connecting to a SQL 2000 server that is hosted on a Windows 2003 server. My application uses classic ASP with VB6 components. VB6 components connect to SQL server and return data to ASP application. Everything was working fine when the application and SQL server was hosted on NT machine. Recently we have shifted to Windows 2003 server. Since then we could not establish connection to SQL2000.
I'm using UDL as connection string.
IIS and SQL2000 hosted on the same machine with Windows 2003 OS.
This seems to be a security issue. Earlier I faced this issue for a .net application which I resloved adding a domain account to both SQL server and IIS directory security.
Request your input to solve this problem.

Cannot Connect W/ Java App But Can Connect W/ .Net App - SQL Server Express 2005
Dec 12, 2006I'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" />.
These are my values in my Java app web.xml -
<init-param>
<param-name>DBDriver</param-name>
<param-value>com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>DBURL</param-name> <param-value>jdbc:sqlserver://localhostsqlexpress:1055;databaseName=CORNERS</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>DBUser</param-name>
<param-value>sa</param-value>
</init-param>
<init-param>
<param-name>DBPwd</param-name>
<param-value>myPasswd</param-value>
</init-param>.
And yes, the port is 1055 - I checked to find it.
I am using Microsoft SQL Server 2005 JDBC Driver 1.0 (sqljdbc_1.0.809.102).
Does anyone have any idea what is wrong so that the login fails in the Java application but works in the .Net application?

Cannot Restore SQL2000 Backup To 2005 (Msg #601)
Jun 5, 2008Hello,
In the process of migrating a logshipped database (in non recovery mode) from SQL2000 SP4 to SQL2005 SP2, I got the following error (sorry for the french translation!):

Of course, the restore operation performs well when the destination is SQL2000. I suspect the integrity checker of SQL2005 to be less permissive, hence I run a checkdb on the original DB, which raise several errors, which are quite difficult for me to analyse:

Xp_cmdshell Statement Worked In SQL2000 Not In 2005
Dec 7, 2007Code Block
Hi All,
I've got a stored procedure called from a trigger on another database. There are two xp_cmdshell statements in the procedure. One writes a couple variables, passed from the trigger, into a text file. The second fires off an executable that uses the text file via a batch file.
Here's the code that worked on the old 32bit SQL2000 box
Code Block
begin
declare @cmd varchar(150)
select @cmd = 'echo ' + @sVariable1 + ',' + @sVariable2 +' > c:aFolderTextFile.txt'
exec master..xp_cmdshell @cmd
declare @cmd2 varchar(150)
select @cmd2 = 'c:aFolderRun.bat'
exec master..xp_cmdshell @cmd2
end
The new box is 64bit SQL2005. When invoked the stored procedure executes without an error. The textfile is written sucessfully. But, the executable called from the second xp_shell statement does not produce the expected result. Because there is no error I'm having trouble determining where the failure lies.
To troubleshoot the problem I've tried:
Running the batch file from the command prompt in the system32 directory... Success
Using sp_xp_cmdshell_proxy_account to be sure of the credentials of the running xp_cmdshell... Failure
My questions:
Does 64 Bit SQL2005 have a different set of parameters when invoking an executable from xp_cmdshell? ie Do I need to rewrite the batch file?
Is there another way call an executable, SQLCMD maybe?
Any help is appreciated...
Code Block
The batch file if you're curious:
"c:Program Files (x86)someVendersomeAppsomeEXE.exe" "C:aFolderTextFile.txt"
SQL2000/2005 Logon Via Windows Group
May 30, 2007I've come up against a wall with regards to adding login via a windows group. My end goal is to be able to manage sysadmin access to many servers via a domain group instead of via individual logins at each server.
I've got a mix of 2000 and 2005 servers, with a related issue for each. Searching far and wide has come up empty so far.
In each case below, the a login for the group was created via EM/SSMS, and set with the sysadmin role.
1. Domain Local Group
I added a domain local group "domainsql accounts" with myself among others as members, including the domain account for the sql and agent services.
Adding this group to SQL2005 worked fine, and authenticates my login as a member of this group. Oddly, xp_logininfo [domainsql accounts] , 'members' returns error code 0x8ac.
It does log me in, and it does correctly grant me sysadmin.
Adding this group to SQL2000 from EM, the group does not appear in the list for the domain. Typing it manually does recognize it as a group, but it does not allow login.
Review:
2000 fails login, fails xp_logininfo
2005 allows login, fails xp_logininfo
2. Domain Global Group
Next, I added a global group "domainsql dba", with myself among others as members.
This group IS viewable in SQL2000 EM to add as a login. Unfortunately, I still cannot login via windows auth. Even stranger, xp_logininfo [domainsql dba] , 'members' correctly returns the members of this group. I know SQL can authenticate that group, and I am part of that group, yet it won't authenticate my login?
SQL2005 fails to allow login but will also return member info via xp_logininfo.
Review:
2000 fails login, returns xp_logininfo
2005 fails login, returns xp_logininfo
The closest thing I found was a MS kb entry that suggested creating a local group, adding the domain group as a member of the local group, and adding a login for the local group. It didn't work.
Thanks for any offered suggestions

Copy Records From 2005 Express To SQL2000 Database
Jul 9, 2007I have an application which stores records on a local SQL Express and I need to move the records to a SQL 2000 database. I have the SQL 2000 server linked in the Express Management Console (under Linked Servers). I'm trying to use a stored procedure to accomplish this, but get an error "Invalid object name 'ngtxa4-rsmsz-01.newpurchase.tblRequest'." Express uses a table named tblTRequest in the TempPurchase database, while 2000 uses a table named tblRequest in a NewPurchase database. Here is the stored procedure I'm using:
USE [tempPurchase]
GO
/****** Object: StoredProcedure [dbo].[InsertRequestToMain] Script Date: 07/09/2007 08:54:56 ******/
SET ANSI_NULLS ON
GO
SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON
GO
ALTER PROCEDURE [dbo].[InsertRequestToMain]
AS
BEGIN
INSERT INTO [ngtxa4-rsmsz-01].newpurchase.tblRequest
(fldRequestDate, fldRequiredBy, fldUserID, fldWorkAreaID, fldVendorID, fldClassID, fldEstimate, fldMemo, fldStatusID, fldStatusDate, fldSystemID,
fldtmpRequestID, fldUpdateCode)
SELECT fldRequestDate, fldRequiredBy, fldUserID, fldWorkAreaID, fldVendorID, fldClassID, fldEstimate, fldMemo, fldStatusID, fldStatusDate, fldSystemID,
tmpRequestID, UpdateCode
FROM tblTRequest
WHERE (fldHold = 0)
END
Any assistance with this would greatly be helpful. Thank you.

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,

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.

Thank you very in advance for your kind advices and help. And I am looking forward to hearing from you soon.

Can't Connect To Sql Server 2005 Database Using Vb 2005 Express
Nov 21, 2006I'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
"Data Source=MySystem;initial catalog=AdventureWorks;integrated security=true;"
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.

SQL 2005, Cannot Connect??
Feb 12, 2006Hi, I've looked through the search facility and not seen anything discussed for this before, and wonder if someone here has the answer?
I've just setup a new server (Win Server 2003 SE SP1), installed SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition and can connect to it fine locally using Management Studio, but when I try to connecto to it via MS remotely, I get nothing.
I've enabled remote connections, the firewall is set to allow TCP port 1433 through (though even with the firewall off, I get nothing). Just TCP/IP is enabled as a network protocol, but I've tried all others (service doesn't start if trying to use VIA), with all but VIA enabled for Native Client Protocols.
I've fiddled with this for a couple of days now and not got anywhere. If I enable IIS on the server, I can telnet to that fine, so the server is listening on the network fine, but telnet'ing to port 1433 gets no reply.
Am I missing something obvious here? Please help, it's driving me mad!

(provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (.Net SqlClient Data Provider)The sa account username/password are correct and don't work, windows authentication does not work, I have stopped/started all the services, I have all Protocols enabled correctly, I have my Firewall turned off.

I create the tables in YCH1-1SQLEXPRESSDatabasesSystem DatabasesmasterTables
where YCH1-1 is my machine name
The table I have created is called staff I put in the code below in the web.config file but it does not work when I try to insert data into staff table
<appSettings><add key="ConnectionString" value="Data Source=(local);Initial Catalog=Master; 
 Integrated Security=true;"/>
