How To Set Linked Server Connection To Db2?

Oct 1, 2007

What is the correct way to set a linked server pointing to a DB2 database?

I've been trying for hours with "Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers" [MSDASQL] and "IBM OLE DB Provider for DB2" [DB2OLEDB] and I still cant setup a correct connection.

I already have a ODBC connection pointing succesfully to my DB2 database, but I can't make MSSQL to use it.

Should I created the connection using sp_addlinkedserver OR the "new Linked Server" under "linked Servers" on Management Studio?

Any help is welcome.

Testing Linked Server Connection

Jan 16, 2001

I have a server with several linked servers. Before I execute sql against any of these linked servers I want to check to make sure the connection is active.

I created a small stored procedure that takes the server name. I am trying to get it to run a simple select statement. If the select statement runs without errors (meaning the linked server is active) I want to return a value for success. If the select statement fails I want to return a value for a failure.

The problem is that I am having trouble with the error. When I shut down the linked server and run the select statement I get the following error returned:

Server: Msg 11, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
General network error. Check your network documentation.

The stored procedure I have only returns this message and does not send the return value that I set. How do I get my procedure to return a failure value instead of the following error above? Is there a better way for me to check for this type of error?

Thanks

Linked Server Connection To Sybase

Mar 11, 2004

Has anyone had problems using an OLEDB linked server connection to Sybase ASE 12.5? I'm having major performance problems when I use string criteria in the where clause. Queries that return 1 row and execute in less than a second using a native Sybase connection take 40 seconds to run using the linked server OLEDB connection. If I use ints in the where clause performance is almost exactly the same between native and linked connections.

Any ideas???

Is It Possible To Open A Connection To The Linked Server In C#

Jan 17, 2008



Hi Gurus,

In my code, I need to update the table on the linked server according to the XML input. A table variable is used to store the value from XML.

But the collation of the linked database doesn't match with the default collation used by the table variable, so the table join fails.

I am thinking about to open the connection to the linked server directly, and use the target database. So the table variable collation should be as same as the target database collation.

Is it possible to open the connection to the linked server in c# ?


Thanks and best regards,

Jennifer Zhao

Establishing An Access Linked Server Connection On SS7

May 11, 2000

Hi:

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?

Thanks in advance,
Gary

Linked Server To Pervasive 8 - Connection Error

Aug 7, 2006

Hello,

I am currently migrating from SQL 7.0 to SQL2005. So far everything is going well except for one thing, my linked server to a Pervasive 8.6 server database. I've done the same configurations as with the SQL 7.0 server to create the linked server. I've created an Pervasive ODBC Client DSN system connection on the server called PervasiveDB pointing to the DataDB catalog, using TCP/IP as transport and the server name "PervasiveDB" as the server address. From this point, on the SQL2005 server, the DSN connection is successfull and I can see the different catalog names of the PervasiveDB server. When I create the Linked server on the SQL2005, I create exactly as done on the SQL7.0 which is :

SQL7.0 server : OS is Windows 2000 all service packs applied for both OS and SQL7.0

SQL2005 server : OS is Windows2003 standard edition all service packs applied for both OS and SQL2005.

Linked server name : TestPervasive

Provider : Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers

Product name: Pervasive

Data source: PervasiveDB

Location: PervasiveDB

Catalog : DataDB

I get the following error when I try to query the data to test if the linked server I just created is successful:

query : SELECT * FROM testpervasive.DataDB..schedule

error message:

Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1

The OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "TestPervasive" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error.

Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1

Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "TestPervasive".

Anybody can help me on this one? I would greatly appreciate it !!

I am trying to connect to a sql 2005 SP2 windows auth server through linked server from a sql 2005 SP2 mixed mode. I am using the "use current users credentials" option for authentication. I am getting the error below. Any thoughts to why this is happening would be appreciated.

Test Linked Server Connection SQL 2000

Feb 27, 2007

I€™m trying to resolve an issue and wonder if anybody has ever run into and possibly had a resolution for.

I wrote a custom conflict resolvers to manage data at the column level. What I needed to do to achieve this was to use a remote query to the mobile subscriber that raised the conflict. I€™m trying to put in a rule that if there are any issues connecting to the subscriber I want to use the default conflict resolver and move forward. Here is my issue, it seems there is no way I can test a connection without getting a critical error that I can€™t seem to trap. Example

I was trying to do

Select * from [linkedserver].[database].[dbo].[incident]
If @@error <> 0
use default conflict resolver

What I did to test this was I changed the linked server authentication to an incorrect password to get the following error that there is no way to trap.

Server: Msg 18456, Level 14, State 1, Line 1
Login failed for user 'sa'.

Does anybody have an idea how to trap this? In SQL 2005 there is a stored procedure

sp_testlinkedserver to handle this but I need this to work in SQL 2000 also, it seems many people have ran into this issue on the web and I tried to get the one where sqldmo is used to test connection but that will not work since I wont always know the password. I would like to just check the @@error value after trying to run a remote query.

Thank you,
Pauly C

OLE DB Connection Error; Provider Becomes Unavailable To Linked Server

Apr 24, 2008

We have a SQL2005 server install running on a Win2003 Server. It has a linked server to iHistorian using the iHOLEDB provider for iHistorian. Randomly and after a few execution to this provider, we start getting errors

Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 2

Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "IhOLEDB.iHistorian" for linked server "fspheafhs1".I created a data source in VS2005 for BI on the SQL server using the iholedb provider. This was successful. However, all queries or OPENQUERY statements to the linked server fail. This seems to continue until SQL Server is restarted. Does anyone know how to reset a provider in SQL Server or tell if the SQL Server is having trouble with the provider? There are no message in the SQL Error Log. Again the provider continues to work outside of SQL Server, but no longer can be accessed from within SQL Server. Thanks in advance.

Linked Server W/ Text Field Gets Connection Broken Error

Sep 5, 2006

We have a stored proc on Server B called:

my_sp_server_b it takes 1 parameter a text field as a parameter, with default set to NULL

this proc calls:

my_sp_server_a through a linked server (which happens to be the same server, different DB), it has two parameters: my_id int, my_text text w/ my_text having a default set to NULL

This second stored procedure just selects back an ID that is passed to it (to keep things simple).

If we pass any string value to my_sp_server_b we get the appropriate hardcoded ID passed to my_sp_server_a. If we pass NULL to my_sp_server_b we get the following error:

[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBNETLIB]ConnectionCheckForData (CheckforData()).
Server: Msg 11, Level 16, State 1, Line 0
General network error. Check your network documentation.

Connection Broken

If we remove the linked server, and just reference my_sp_server_a via the scoped DB, we do not get an error. If we change the data type in both procs to varchar(50) we do not get an error. If we change the data type to nText we still get an error. If we put IF logic into stored procedure: my_sp_server_b to check for NULL in the input parameter and if it true then to pass NULL explicitly to my_sp_server_a we do not get an error.

It seems to be a combination of using a linked server and trying to pass a text (or nText variable) with a NULL value to stored procedure. Sometimes the error changes based on which scenario I described above - but we consistantly receive an error unless we do some of the workarounds described above.

Any ideas?

Oracle Linked Server Connection Error After Upgrading To SQL 2005

Mar 14, 2007

Hello all.

I upgraded a SQL 2000 installation to SQL 2005 this past weekend. Minimal issues overall, but one that did crop up relates to a linked server to an Oracle database. The linked server worked before the upgrade, and stopped working immediately after.

We're running on Windows 2003 x64, latest service pack. The linked server is set up using the MSDAORA provider. The error I'm getting post-upgrade is:

=====================

OLE DB provider "MSDAORA" for linked server "PROD" returned message "ORA-06413: Connection not open.".

Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Procedure RDM_GET_REP_LIST_SP, Line 12

Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDAORA" for linked server "PROD".

=====================

A tnsping from the server works fine. I've also tried recreating the linked server. Any help would be appreciated. Let me know what other information would be useful.

Thanks,

Adam

Named Pipe Provider/Linked Server Connection Error

Aug 21, 2007

Hello, everyone!

I'm currently having an issue with a linked server. Here's the surrounding information:

A) I have a clustered SQL Server 2005 Instance (A) and a SQL Server 2000 instance (B).
B) There is a linked server on A to B. When I set it up, I did run the fix to ensure A could talk to B (There was an issue with communication between 2005 and 2000 servers). It has been there since I installed A, and has worked fine.. Until last week.
C) This linked server uses static credentials to connect to B.
D) Named Pipes are enabled on both servers to listen to both connections on both A and B in cliconfg. So A has a named pipe listening for B, and B has a named pipe listening for A.
E) A has a view that looks at a table on B - It's a table view, very simple, just pulls in all the data from the table on B.


So, I go to do a select statement from the view, connected as a user other then 'sa'. I then get the error:

Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server Linked Server
Error Source: ncli Client (Paraphrasing, didn't copy that down, but it was the ODBC connector)

Well, that's odd. It's been working fine for months now..

I then go and connect as sa on A to query B. It works! Mind you, absolutely NO QUERY from A to B will run again until I run SOME kind of query has been run as sa on A.

Mind you, this is not a credential issue. Every user who connects to the linked server to B uses a stored credential that is DBO to the database on B. The same User Name and Password exists on both A and B.

Also of note, I check the activity monitor. There's a process that is "dormant" every time I run a query against the view. The details of this connection are:

sp_reset_connection;1

My question is, why is it resetting the connection on B when being queried from A? Why is it "all of a sudden" a problem? Are there any changes that coudl ahve been made that would cause this?

Any help with this confusing issue would be appreciated.

Thanks!

Slow Connection. ASP Page Querying A Linked Server On MSSQL 2005

Dec 28, 2006

Creating a web application.  Running a simple query "SELECT username FROM vwCustomer"

vwCustomer is a view built on top of an Access DB which is set up as a linked server.  Within SQL Server that view responds immediately.  But when I try to access it from an ASP page it takes over 20 seconds to respond.

Used the following to create the linked server:

EXEC sp_addlinkedserver 'DBName', 'Jet 4.0', 'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', 'c:databasesdatabase.mdb'

GO

EXEC sp_addlinkedsrvlogin 'DBName', FALSE, NULL, 'Admin', ''

GO

The view is simply(this works fine in SQL Server):

SELECT * FROM DBName.db.dbo.customer

The ASP page:

SELECT * FROM vwCustomer

Can anyone give me a hint as to where the bottleneck is?  Or how I can figure that out using SQL Profiler or something?

Please help!

Integration Services :: Need To Create SSIS CONNECTION Manager Specifically For Linked Server?

Oct 1, 2015

I have a linked server setup in dev environment which is pointing to ORACLE server of a third-party. I m on  sql server 2008 r2 and   using BIDS 2008 for building an SSIS package which would pull data from oracle and do a look up in SQL server table to get a final  extract. Now the query which pulls data from a single table from linked server is like the one below

select * from [oracle linked server ]..dbo.tablename a
left join  mySQLSERVERtable b
on a.id=b.id 

Note:I can execute this query on SSMS as  the linked server is setup -[oracle linked server ] and I have sql  oledb connection manager for dev environment already configured in my ssis package .

My questions are do I need to create a SSIS CONNECTION manager specifically for linked server in my ssis package ?

Are there any best practices which we follow when using linked servers in this context ? I am thinking will the join suffer performance issue and what kind of exceptions I need to write when the linked server connection is broken.

I am using Linked Server in SQL Server 2008R2 connecting to a couple of Linked Servers.

I was able to connect Linked Servers, but I cannot point to a specific database in a Linked Server, also, I cannot rename Linked Server's name.

How to point the linked server to a specific database? How to rename the Linked Server?

The following is the code that I am using right now:

I'd like to set up an ODBC DSN to a table in a linked SQL Server, viamy local SQL Server.I'm having a few problems:1. When I use Enterprise Manager to link the remote SQL Server, itdoesn't allow me to select the database in the remote server. It onlyshows one database.2. When I use the Data Sources program to set up the ODBC DSN, it onlyshows databases in the local SQL Server, not in the linked one. If Itry typing it in: [NAMEOFLINKEDSERVER].databasename - it tells me thatit is an invalid table.

SQL Server 2008 :: Failed To Acquire Connection (Local Server Connection)

What is strange is that it goes away without any action from myself. We have a tranlog backup that is scheduled every hour. I had this error happen once in the middle of the night. It looks like the job was running fine because almost all the backups are there. I've searched and not found a resolution to this error. I checked the event log and don't see any issues and even tried rebuilding the maintenance plans.

Connection Strings, Trusted-connection VS Username-password, SQL Server 2005 Express

Mar 9, 2007

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?
 
Please advise.
Thank you.

Jdbc Refuses Connection With 'user Not Associated With A Trusted SQL Server Connection' Message

Jul 10, 2007

When using jdbc with IntegratedSecurity, I run into this problem when the machine is not part of a domain & gets its IP address via dhcp. Is this expected behavior or a bug in the jdbc driver.



The SQLServer and client application are installed on the same machine and a local admin is logged in, running the client app.



If I change one of the two parameters mentioned above, the connection can be established leading me to believe this may be intentional for security issues. Am I correct?

Rounding Error: Between Flat File Connection Manager Source &&amp; OLE DB Connection Destination (SQL Server 2005)

Jun 22, 2006

I have a Rounding error: Between flat file connection manager Source & OLE DB Connection Destination (SQL Server 2005) in my Dataflow.

File looks like this lets call column names Col A,B,C,D

70410000 RD1 1223631.92 196042.42
70329000 ICD 11025.84 3353.88
71167300 COL 104270.59 24676.96

flat file connection manager settings: first row Column names then Advanced tab Col A float , Col B float , Col C string ,Col D float ,

OLE DB Connection Destination (SQL Server 2005)

CREATE TABLE [dbo].[PT_CUST_ABR](

[PARTY_NO] [float] NULL,

[PARTY_NAME] [varchar](75) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL,

[TELECOMABR] [float] NULL,

[GENIABR] [float] NULL,



Problem: ColA (Source) Rounding error to PARTY_NO (Destination)
I have a field of text of in a flat file that the flat file connection manager Source picks up correctly €œ70000893€?
However when it gets the OLE DB Connection Destination the data has changed to 70000896. That€™s before its even Written to the database.
The only clue that something is wrong in the middle is the great Data viewer shows the number as 7.000009E+07
Other clues looking at the data it appears there is a rounding error on only the number that dont end in 00
ColA (Source) PARTY_NO (Destination)
71167300 71167296
70329000 70329000
70410000 70410000
Any ideas people?
Thanks in advance
Dave

Dropped Network Connection Breaks Connection To Local SQL Server

Apr 2, 2008

Let me set the stage of my testbed configuration: On Windows XP SP2, my default connection to the Internet is via wireless express card modem using EV-DO via Verizon Wireless. Let's call this connection A. I also have a traditional wireless network connection (802.11g) that is always enabled. Let's call this connection B. Connection A is always connected during normal business hours. Connection B is not and is often searching for a wireless network to connect to when nothing is in range.



Yesterday, connection B was continuously trying to connect to a wireless network not under my control, meaning that the connection was never established and notification messages continually popped up to complain of this fact. Over time, I've learned to ignore these messages and go on doing my daily work without much thought of the possible implications.




Then, things started to get odd. I was running our application, WebWatchBot, to perform some simple tests of various websites and servers, when I started to get messages from the application that database connectivity was lost, which is a message that pops up to inform the user that the connection is forcibly dropped by SQL Server. After a few moments, the connection to the database was re-established and the message went away. Since I was actually working with SQL Server, I thought it was an anomoly, so I continued on. Then, it happened again. And again. Then, I noticed that the "database connectivity lost" message started to coincide with the wireless connection's (connection B) inability to connect with a wireless network.




Why would this be happening? The database and application are on the same exact computer. The connection to the database is via ODBC drivers over tcp/ip, but why would connection B affect this?





Some added information that may prove useful:



Client side:

What is the connection string in you app or DSN? (please specify)
DRIVER=SQL Server;SERVER=HIGHNOTEWEBWATCHBOT;Database=WebWatchBot;UID=sa;PWD=*****

If client fails to connect, what is the client error messages? (please specify)

Is the client remote or local to the SQL server machine? [Remote | Local]
Can you ping your server? [YES | NO ]
In cmd.exe console, type €œping -a <server_name>€?.

Can you telnet to your SQL Server? [YES | NO, please specify the error message ]
In cmd.exe console, type €œtelnet <server name> port, where port can be 135, 445 or sql_server_tcp_port. If your cmd.exe console turns into a complete black screen with a cursor flushing on top left corner, you are connected. Type ctrl+€™[€˜ to bring up telnet prompt and type €œquit€? <enter>.

What is your client database provider? [SNAC | MDAC | ADO.NET1.0 | ADO.NET2.0| other (please specify] Or/And, what is your client application? [SQL Management Studio | SQL Profiler | Visual Studio | Other (please specify): WebWatchBot - Website and Server Monitoring Software
Is your client computer in the same domain as the Server computer? (Same domain | Different domains | WorkGroup)
What protocol the client enabled? [Shared Memory | TCPIP | Named Pipes].
Do you have aliases configured that match the server name portion of your connection string? NO
Do you select force encryption on server and/or client? NO
[2] Server side:


What is the MS SQL version? [ SQL Server 2005 | SQL Sever 2005 ]
What is the SKU of MS SQL? [Enterprise | Standard | Workgroup | Express (or MSDE) | other (please specify)].

Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.0.5730.11
Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0.50727.832
Operating System 5.1.2600

What is the SQL Server Protocol enabled? [Shared Memory | TCPIP | Named Pipes ]. Use SQL Server Configuration Manager to configure it and check ERRORLOG or event log to confirm.
Does the server start successfully? [YES | NO] If not what is the error messages in the SQL server ERRORLOG?
If SQL Server is a named instance, is the SQL browser enabled? [YES | NO]
What is the account that the SQL Server is running under?[Local System | Network Service | Domain Account]
Do you make firewall exception for your SQL server TCP port if you want connect remotely through TCP provider? [YES | NO | not applicable]
Do you make firewall exception for SQL Browser UDP port 1434? In SQL2000, you still need to make firewall exception for UDP port 1434 in order to support named instance.[YES | NO | not applicable ]
[2a] Tool Used to Connect

What tool or Application are you using to connect to SQL Server (eg: Visual Studio, SQL Server Management Studio, SQLCmd.exe, OSQL, etc) and especially the version of SQL Server (Express, Workgroup, Standard, Enterprise, Developer)

SQL Server 2008 :: Connection Manager Not Using Connection String Value

Feb 19, 2015

I have a child package where the ConnectionString property of a Connection Manager is set by a Parent Package Variable Configuration. I set up a script task that brings up a message box with the value of the ConnectionString property right before the dataflow task.

MessageBox.Show(Dts.Connections["CPU_*"].ConnectionString.ToString());When I run the parent package, the message box shows that the connection string is changing with every iteration, but in the dataflow it always draws the data from the same source.

The connection manager is an ADO.Net type, RetainSameConnection is set to False, and I've been researching this for days.

(Update 2/23/2015): To make this stranger, when I look at the diagnostic logs, they tell me that when the new connections are being opened they are using the new connection strings.

Using One Single-application Connection Vs. One Connection For Every Operation To SQL-Server Via ADO.NET

Aug 11, 2005

Dear members,I'am thinking about the "best" way to connect to my sql-server viaADO.Net (if there is a best way).My application uses the sql-server very intensively. At the momentevery database-operation opens a connection, executes and then closesthe connection.Another way would be to use only a single connection to the database,which is opened when the application starts.What do you think is the better way to get a high performing sqlserver: using one single application connection vs. using oneconnection for every operation?Cheers, Sebastian

SQL Server Losing Connection When Connection From A Remote Server

Jul 12, 2006

Hi

I have two machines, the one has Windows 2003 server and the other has Windows Xp Pro on.

The 2003 one has SQL Standard Edition 2000 on where as the XP Pro has MSDE 2000.

I'm trying to run a windows based app from the 2003 server and it connects to a database on the XP Pro PC.

When running the application i keep getting the following exception:

"A Transport-Level error has occured when sending the request to the server (Provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 0 - The specified network name is no longer available)

After using Preformance monitor on the XP machine it seems that when the app starts and the user logins in it make a SQL connection but then the connection is lost then the exception pops up. then i click continue and try it again then it works, then a couple of secs when using the system it pops up again. The Performance Monitor Test shows that the SQL connection keep being lost. The network is fine. its has something to do with SQL and Named Pipes and stuff.



When running the app on the Xp machine and the Connection is made to the 2003 machine there is no problem.

There are other connection made to the Windows XP Machine but i doubt that it affects the app.

The Windows firewall is off as well.

Please can anyone help.
