Intermittent 'Cannot Acquire Connection' To MS Access Error
Sep 27, 2007
I'm getting an intermittent error 'DTS_E_CANNOTACQUIRECONNECTIONFROMCONNECTIONMANAGER' when attempting to connect to an Access mdb. We have a weekly package that fails almost every other week. The package uses a FileSystem task to copy an Access mdb which we use as a template. It has a single table structure which is empty. The FileSystem copy task creates the 'clone' in a different folder with a new file name. The new file name has the current date embedded in it. The next task is a DataFlow task which fills the single Access table with data. It uses an OLE_DB connection to the Access mdb. Since the destination mdb is created at runtime in the FileSystem task, I have set the DelayValidation = True for the DataFlow task. The package is called from a 'master' package via an Execute Package Task. The master package is launched from a web application. Interestingly, when I use the 'restart from checkpoint' feature it restarts the package at the DataFlow task and runs it successfully. I have used the 'restart from checkpoint' after each failure and it has always worked. When I try to isolate the problem in a test package I am unable to reproduce the error. Our SqlServer version is Enterprise Edition (64-bit) with SP2.
Anyone have a similar experience? Thanks in advance.
We have an SSIS package, that when run though BIDS, runs to success.
However when running as a SQL Agent Job the following error is logged: "The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "Data Source" failed with error code 0xC0202009."
The package does use a configuration file as well as protection level of EncryptSensitiveWithPassword. The correct username and password are kept in the config file.
How do i fix this? The only thing i find in the KB is a solution telling me to use a config file and EncryptSensitiveWithPassword, both of which i already do.
We have a SQL 2005 clustered server (Microsoft Cluster Services) that is queried from 4 IIS6 Windows Server 2003 frontends. Each frontend runs both classic ASP apps connection with SQL Server ODBC and .NET2 apps connecting with System.Data.SqlClient. Ocassionaly we get a string of errors/timeouts opening a connection lasting maybe 2 minutes.
One the classic ASP apps we log one of these two errors:
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80004005) [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBNETLIB]General network error. Check your network documentation
or
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80004005) [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver]Timeout expired on the ADODB.Connection.Open On the .NET2 apps we log Message Timeout expired. The timeout period elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding.

I have a simple SSIS package with three "Execute SQL Tasks". I am using ADO.Net Connection to execute SPs on a DB server.
When I execute this package It works fine. So far so good.
Now, I need to implement transation on this package. And problem starts now onwards. When I try to execute package after setting TransationOption = Required for the Sequence container which contains all the tasks, I get following error.
[Execute SQL Task] Error: Failed to acquire connection "NYCDB0008.Export". Connection may not be configured correctly or you may not have the right permissions on this connection.
"NYCDB0008.Export" is the name of the ADO.Net connection. I have been hunting for any solution but all in vain. I have tried changing all DTC settings on the dev as well as Database server.
I created a single step plan that does integrity checks. It fails with the error below. I created a new connection using our clusters virtual sql name.

hi all, i got the error, when i run my package after deploy into the server machine; i can able to run that package in my local machine, if i deploy it to the server or some remote machine, its not running, and rises error messages, that says cant accquire connection from the connection manager;
the problem might be with the login name and password; i could not see any password in any of my config file, or connection manager while running the package. how to resolve this problem?? please help me!
My source files are in C:Process folder. File names are in the format proc*.csv
I am using foreach loop container to iterate over the files in folder "C:Process"
I have a user variable "filename"
The order of my tasks
ForEach - Data Flow task - File System Task
In Data Flow task, I have ole db source which should take the dynamic filename from user variable "filename". whats happening is when i give fixed filename, without foreach loop container the package is working fine.
with dynamic filename, I am not able to run the package because of ole db source Error - cannot aquire connection from connection manager.
At the Runtime execution, Accquire Connection is getting called 3 times, why does that happen so many times, is there any way possible to restrict it to once?
Hi, I have an SSIS project, has a connection to tempdb (local sql2k5 server), 3 tasks, creating a table, populating the table, then deleting the table. of course when I test the connection i GET TEST Succesfull (I amusing sa ...)
Whenever I run the package, all tasks become red colored indicating, I get the following error : --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- [Execute SQL Task] Error: Failed to acquire connection "tempdb". connection may not be configured correctly or you may not have the right permissions on this connection.vance ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance
As I trun Work offline - true, my connection manager for log file says-it cant acquire connection while work offline is true.Where as other oledb connections work fine.
Even it tried to get around by putting DelayValidation as true, but didnt work.
Occasionally I'm seeing the following error when tranlog or full backup maintenance plan is executing.
Failed-1073573396) Failed to acquire connection "Local server connection". Connection may not be configured correctly or you may not have the right permissions on this 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.
I'm having an issue with what appears to be SQL Server 2005 deciding to randomly ignore new connections.
I currently have two virtual servers - one running just SQL Server 2005, the other running Reporting Services, Windows Sharepoint Services and Team Foundation Server.
For 3 weeks, it was all working perfectly, then on Wednesday night the server (and both Virtual Servers) was rebooted after installing the latest updates for Windows. Since then, I've had this issue.
It will work fine for a while, then it'll start throwing loads of Errors and Warnings into the Event Log, all along the lines of unable to connect to the database. The Reporting Services Configuration utility throws up the same problem. Then randomly, it'll start working again.
If anyone has any ideas, they would be much appreciated as this is driving me crazy!
I am trying to run eight SSIS packs from within Integration Services > Stored Packages > File System and seem to get an error like the following on all of them:
"Failed to acquire connection "MyConnection". Connection may not be configured correctly or you may not have the right permissions on this connection.
I can run the packages without error from within VS and from within that location in Integration Services on the machine containing the the databases, but when I attempt to run them remotely I get that error. I am attempting this with full admin access on both machines, but the purpose behind these packages is for our developers to run them on individual databases whenever they need to. So I'm concerned that I may run into further access errors after this, but so far I can't find a reason why this connection would fail. Any ideas?
If I can supply more information please let me know. Thanks in advance for any information!
I'm working on a DB that will be used in separate physical locations. These DBs will be identical in structure and completely independent of each other. Whilst some tables will retain similar or identical information, there is a large amount of content that will diverge.However, there is a central location that will need to manage these DBs. There will be a requirement from this central location to run reports, often comparing data between them, and to push data into each child location. There is no requirement for the child locations to 'share' information and indeed the volume concerned and the intermittent/low-bandwidth nature of their connections would make this undesirable. If an individual selection of data does need to be shared between I'm happy for it to be uploaded centrally, a decision made, and manually pushed to each child-location.
Which brings me to my real question. Should I try and include composite Primary Keys in many of the tables (to include probably an incrementing number and another field of site ID) so that when I absorb them all back centrally I can put them into one large DB. Or should I keep them as separate DBs in the central location and use some fairly 'normal' mechanisms for mirroring to sites; accepting that this will make running comparisons between them more difficult and potentially more difficult to write interactivity for centrally?
The best 'real world' comparison I can think of is transactions in retail shops. How do these transaction logs get stored centrally when they're all generating individual transaction numbers that are only unique in that location?
I am experiencing intermittent connection problems with the Northwind database and sql server express. The most frequent error message indicates that I am already logged in and will not allow another user.
The odd thing is that even when I am locked out I can access a Northwind database from another connection on Server Explorer.
I ran code to demonstrate simple binding for two text boxes, no problem. I added a project to show complex binding using the datagrid view tool, but could not get past selecting the database.
I tried the same simple binding project on another computer running a beta version of VS 2005 Pro and could not connect to Northwind on that computer also. (Two different Northwind databases, different computers)
A couple days ago I restored the database in Solutions Manager and that helped for a while, but I should not have to resort to that, I know.
How do I remove the user lock? I tried Solutions Manager Express with the first computer but could not access the database in the management module.
I'm having weird issues with connecting to MS SQL Server. Sometimes it can establish a connection and sometimes it can't. This is both with ODBC and with .net code. This happens on multiple computers. I.e. one minute you can connect, the next you can't.
I have a SQL 2000 server which connects fine every time. So I assume the problem is with the upgraded MS SQL Server. I want to be able to resolve this issue before upgrading the main server to SQL 2005.
I have this problem occuring intermittently:When I try to add a package to the project, and click on the Packagepath button. I get a oledb error x080004005 (client unable toestablish connection)...After I click ok, and click on the Package path again 2 or 3 times,the error goes away and I get the list of packages displayed. Sometime I get an empty list box.Similar to this happens when I execute a package also. When I executeit 2nd or 3 rd time it works fine. The error happens only when I amtrying to connect to the serverdatabase. Once it is in the databaseI do not get any error message.This is what I have:I have sql 2005 installed.Microsoft SQL Server ManagementStudio9.00.1399.00Microsoft Analysis Services ClientTools2005.090.1399.00Microsoft Data Access Components(MDAC)2000.085.1117.00 (xpsp_sp2_rtm.040803-2158)Thank you in advance!!!

I am running the Sept CTP. I have created a SSIS package that pulls data from a text file and inserts into a database. When I run the package on the DB server it runs fine. I have moved the package the the web server (we are attempting to kick off the package from a web site) and we get connections errors. We are running the package using dtexec from the command line.
I am receiving an error on my master package that executes a number of other packages. The individual packages work fine when executed by themselves. However, I am getting the following error when I attempt to execute it from another package:
Error: Failed to acquire connection "conneciton". Connection may not be configured correctly or you may not have the right permissions on this connection.
I have a classic ASP app that loops through a record set and calls another query based on each record returned. Something like:
sSql = User Query
rsUser = conn.execute(sSql)
do while not rsUser.eof sSql = Select [Type] From [User Types Display] Where UserId = rsUser(€œUserid€?) rsType = conn.execute(sSql) €˜ Put information into HTML table rsType.Close rsUser.MoveNext loop
In general, at around 3575-4000 loops, the system kicks back :
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server error '80004005' [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access denied. UserList.asp Line 300
I get no error message in the SQL Server Logs (according to the server, nothing happened), just this message on my ASP page. This happens about 90% of the time. 5% it runs completely, the other 5% bombs after 1-100 loops.
This only started happening when we took our app from a local Server 2000/SQL 2000 setup to separate Server 2003/SQL 2005 setup.
In SQL Profiler I see the loops hitting with only two reads per batch (TCP/IP). This seems very low compared to named pipes (when in a local server configuration) reads of 15-30 reads per batch.
I know it is not a hardware issue; this behavior is observed in both our test and production environments. All of our other ASP page queries work fine, just the 2 or 3 of hundreds that loop like above. cause the error.
Client Details (as best I could):
Connection String (in .inc file): conn.Open "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Network=DBMSSOCN;Data Source=10.0.1.100;Initial Catalog=€™TestDB';User ID='XXXX';Password='XXXX'"
The Client is Remote to the SQL machine and connects through TCP/IP only.
I force no encryption on the back and forth between the servers.
Server Details: SQL Server 2005 Standard with SP1
Only Named Pipes and TCP/IP are enabled
I think this is all the info relative to my issue. Thank you so much for any help,Smith

I'm in the process of writing a fairly complex SSIS package that reads csv files and goes on to load the content into a SQL Server 2005 database.
I am testing the package by executing it from within a Nant script. My test process resets the data in the target database and then loads data from a known set of test data files. Because it's scripted I can be sure that SSIS is being asked to do the same thing, every time in a consistent way.
When I execute the package I frequently (although not always) get an error message dialog mid-ececution that reads:
Code Snippet
Microsoft Visual c++ Runtime Library
Runtime error!
Program: C...
The application has requested the Runtime to terminate it in an unusual way. Please contact the application's support team for more information.
When I click OK the VS Just-In-Time debugger tells me about an unhandled win32 exception in DTExec.exe [4696] and asks me if I wish to debug (which I do not).
No error is reported by SSIS itself, it literally just stops in its tracks.
I will appreciate any help that can be offered here
Help,I am running a pass through query to oracle from SQL server 2000 asfollows;select * from openquery(nbsp, 'select * from FND_FLEX_VALUES')I have run this query through both DTS and the query analyzer and getthe foloowing error;Server: Msg 7357, Level 16, State 2, Line 3Could not process object 'select * from FND_FLEX_VALUES'.

We are experiencing intermittent authentication errors "Error: 18456, Severity: 14, State: 10" on a customer's production server. This is a new server that has just been rolled out in the past several months. Rebooting the server appears to make the problem go away. We are using SQL authentication from a separate server that is running IIS. The application always uses the same username and password to connect.

Note: This was not a case of a transient error that occurs only when SQL Server is starting up - these errors occurred at a variety of times, two months after the server was last rebooted / SQL Server last restarted.
I have a VB 2003 .NET application that I wrote for a customer that connects to a named instance of SQL 2000. Until recently it has been working fine. Lately the program either pops a timeout failure within a few seconds or a general network error. I've increased the connection timeout settings to 90 seconds but the error still pops within a few seconds. I'm thinking something has changed in the environment that prevents a clean connection to the named instance of SQL server.
How should this issue be troubleshoot to determine the problem and what areas need to be looked at?
