Known Good Data Connection In VWDEE Fails...
Mar 3, 2008
Hi All: Not sure what's causing this problem...
I have a win2k webserver running FPSE and .NET 2.0 on a private subnet (192.168.x.x). The webserver connects to a separate SQL 2005 server running win2003 on the same subnet.
I have an alias on the webserver pointing to the dB server, and in web.config I'd have a connection string like:
<connectionStrings>
<add name="webConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=sql2005serveralias;Initial Catalog=webdB;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=webUser;Password=webPWD;Network Library=dbmssocn"providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
</connectionStrings>
That connection string, as is, works...pages on the website connect to the server fine.
If, however, I open the website in VWD2005 from a remote location (using FPSE over HTTP), and try to create a new page with a sql data connector, using the existing connection string in the web.config, I can't connect to the database. I get a "TCP Provider, error: 0 ...database is not accessible" type of error.
Is this because I'm outside the subnet, and my local copy of VWD is trying to connect to the server on "192.168.x.x" and of course can't? If so, is the only way to work off the server is to VPN into the firewall and thereby get a local IP address assigned to my computer?

Hy everyone,
I have a problem at pulling data on PDA using Sql Mobile 5 from Sql Server 2000.
It work s for most tables, except for two . Every table of those two has about 1000 records and every record about 150 bytes, so all data is about 150 kbytes.
When I connect to the Sql Server 2000 through LAN, no problem. But when I connect through GPRS - VPN, the error occurs. But, the PDA- phone connection is via Bluetooth and at ping no TimeOut appears, the replies are about 600-700 ms. When connecting with a desktop computer through GPRS no such problem occurs.
So , I don't know what could be the cause: the connection or the Sql Mobile which doesn't retry enough in case of error to transfer all data .
A specialist from the GPRS provider told me to use 3G phone , but , because the GPRS phones have already been bought, this would be a too big investment. So, I don't think this is a good idea in this moment .
I found similar problem on the net and a solution was to use Pooling = False. But , in Sql Mobile there is no pulling parameter available when making the connection string .
Any help is very precious to me ,
Mihai .

Hi,
I have a package that has several FTP tasks in sequence:
[ftp task 1]->[ftp task 2]->[ftp task 3]->[ftp task 4]
[Ftp task 4] fails about 20% of the time, for no apparent reason. This is the error message I receive:
[FTP Task] Error: Unable to receive files using "FTP Connection Manager".
The problem is, it works most of the time (80%), but every 4 or 5 tries, it fails. This makes NO sense to me. Is this a bug perhaps?
Please help... should we use an ftp script instead, as the ftp task seems rather unreliable.
Thanks

Hi
First up - my apologies if this is not the right forum for this question. Please let me know if there is a more appropriate one for this question.
I have come across an issue with my SQL Server 2005 Express Edition install. It has been running fine since the install (a few months back). And I can still interact (query, update etc) the databases just fine. However, SQL Management Server Studio Express has started to produce an error message when I attempt to connect the Object Explorer.
The error message is shown below.
I have tried to access the link shown in the error message but there is no information provided there.
I can use SQL Management Server Studio Express to run queries on the databases so it would appear that the underlying services are all running OK.
The SQL Server is installed using SQL Authentication only and I have not made any changes to Service accounts or the services themselves. The protocols all appear to be in order too - Shared Memory, Named Pipes, TCP/IP are all enabled.
I have restarted the SQL services and even rebooted the machine, but to no avail.
I would really appreciate if anyone out there could give me some guidance on what may be causing this issue.
Note: The SQL Server is installed on WinXP Pro SP2 running in a VirtualPC. All apps are release versions (no beta or CTP)

Dear all,
we have tables with many image columns. We fill these image columns via ODBC and SQLPutData as described in MSDN etc (using SQL_LEN_DATA_AT_EXEC(...), calling SQLParamData and sending the data in chunks of 4096 bytes when receiving SQL_NEED_DATA).
The SQLPutData call fails under the following conditions with sqlstate 08S01
- The database resides on SQL Server 2000
- The driver is SQL Native Client
- The table consists e.g. of one Identity column (key column) and nine image columns
- The data to be inserted are nine blocks of data with the following byte size:
1: 6781262
2: 119454
3: 269
4: 7611
5: 120054
6: 269
7: 8172
8: 120054
9: 269
The content of the data does not matter, (it happens also if only zero bytes are written), nor does the data origin (file or memory).
All data blocks including no 7 are inserted. If the first chunk of data block 8 should be written with SQLPutData the function fails and the connection is broken. There are errors such as "broken pipe" or "I/O error" depending on the used network protocol.
If data no 7 consists of 8173 bytes instead of 8172 all works again.
(Changing the 4096 chunk size length does not help)
Has anybody encountered this or a similar phenomenon?
Thank you

Hi All,
We are using the Windows Task Scheduler as a substitute for the SQL Server Agent, which isn't available in the Express edition. The scheduled task just calls a batch file, which in turn, runs a stored procedure using osql with the -E option for a Trusted Connection.
SQL Server Express has been installed using the defaults, which means the service is running in the "NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE" account. The scheduled task we create is set to run using the "NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM" account.
Now we find that on Windows Vista (tested using Ultimate Edition) that the scheduled task fails to run the stored procedure until the machine is rebooted the first time after installing SQL Server Express. When I say "fail", I mean that the stored procedure isn't executed. The scheduled task however completes and reports no errors. On Windows XP, we do not run into this problem so I suspect it has something to do with the UAC in Vista?
We further found that after installing SQL Server Express and creating the scheduled task in the "NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE" account, the scheduled task (and stored procedure) runs fine WITHOUT requiring a reboot.
Can anyone explain why a reboot is needed to get SQL Server Express to run the scheduled task correctly under Windows Vista and the SYSTEM account?
Any help or thoughts greatly appreciated.

Hi,
I am trying to create a process that will take data source that has been output from a proprietary ISAM database to import into a SQL database. This particular ISAM system cannot be accessed via OleDB or ODBC. The thing is I want the process to be able to create the required tables based on data structure information that has been somehow encoded into the data source.
Currently the solution I am going with is to spit out a CSV file that has a header with table and data format information followed by rows of actual data that gets parsed by a SQL script however I am sure that Microsoft must have some kind of preferred solution to this kind of problem but I have not been able to find it. I have looked at the the tools that are available when creating a SQL Server DTS package as well as what seems to be available using the new Integration Services but nothing seems to be any better than the solution I just mentioned.
Anyone have any ideas, I am willing to bet there is a much better way of doing this.

I have a table that among other holds volume data. I need to calculate something called Intelligent Volume based on set of rules.
After all rules were followed and I still find data that does not belong to any of the rules this data is bad and needs to be reported on (can not be discarded)
I wanted to do this is sql task (insert intel. volume) and I am using Cursor to loop through all the data and all rules.
How do I redirect this data to a file so we can report on those records?
Thanks

"persist security info=False;initial catalog=Northwind"
Any ideas?
Thanks,

I have a legacy visual basic application that connects to a newly installed SQL Server 2005. On occasion (about once or twice a day) I will receive several errors in a row about not being able to open a connection to the database.
Since I am catching any errors generated I post the number and description of the Err object to the screen in a message box for notice to the user. The error is 0 and the description is blank. There are no corresponding events in Window Event Log or in the SQL Server Logs other than standard informational messages about the regular operation of the server.
I am connecting to a SQL Server 2k5 Workgroup Edition, with ODBC, using named pipes. The connection works at all other times, so I know I am set up correctly. The program loops thru the same processing section of code so there is no chance special operations being done on the database could hose the connection.
Thanks for any help.

Hi,
I am facing problem while setting connection string in Report Service project.
Problem is when I specify DNS name instead of machine name as the Server in the connection string.
When I specify DNS name in the connection string it gives error that "A connection cannot be made.Ensure that the server is running" on click of "Test Connection"
Also I am not able to view reports directly through IE. I.e. http://<DNS_NAME>/Reports.
When I access Reports, it prompts me to enter username/password. Even after specifying valid username, it shows me the prompt again n again.
Is there some known issue with Reporting Service or with IIS setting not able to connect to a DNS name? I did not face with any issue when
I specified DNS name in the connection string of Analysis Service project.
Did anyone encountered DNS related problem with SQL Server 2005 Reporting Service?
We also verified that:
1: Ping with both machine name and DNS name returns same result.
2: nslookup with both machine name and DNS name resolves to same IP.
3: Tried putting the DNS name in the hosts file.
Eagerly awaiting some positive reply.
Note: I am working with SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition.

I have an application that automatically reads a lot of data from a third-party application into my database, via XML. For example, I might read a couple thousand rows-worth of XML data, one row at a time in a foreach loop.
To reduce the load on their server and database, I thought about putting a 2 second delay in between each of my automatic requests. Would this really help much, or is there enough overhead (setting up/tearing down connections, etc) with each request that it wouldn't reduce server load much anyway?
Is 2 seconds enough? Too little or too much?

Hi,
I have a strange problem accessing a MS SQL Database from my network.
I'm using an application that is based on BDE which uses ODBC to connect to a MS SQL DB.
When I tried to connect from the network with BDE,I got this error message:
BDE Error : 13059
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][TCP/IP Sockets]SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][TCP/IP Sockets]ConnectionOpen (Connect()).
On the server side I'm using W2003 EE ,MS SQL 2000 Standard with SP4, BDE5.11.
On the client side it's an XP SP2 with MS SQL Client installed, same BDE 5.11
When I create an alias using ODBC and mapping to my server, it connects and the communication with the Database Server succeds:
TESTS COMPLETED SUCCESSFULLY!
When I'm trying to connect using BDE Admin and double clicking on the + sign of the alias I created usind ODBC admin I get the message I listed above.
Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks.

I cannot connect to my SQL2005 server using the old SQL ODBC drivers, I have to use the Native client drivers. The database I am trying to connect to is a SQL 2000 db I just attached. Its owner is a SQL user login, which works fine and can connect remotely.
Thoughts?

Hello everybody.
I'm having an odd issue here. First off, let me tell you I've already spent hours trying to solve this and looking for any similar problem in forums with no luck.
I have a very simple application (built to test this issue) which connects to SQLServer 2K, and retrieves some information from a table. It works fine. Then I stop the server, wait, and bring it up again. When I try to execute the query, it will fail only the first time, and then work.
The application was written in C#.
The exception thrown is "...A transport-level error has occurred when sending the request to the server....".
Please, remember, the server IS up, and working fine. I've also tried variants of this code, not just with select querys, but also insert.. with different objects as well.
I'll post some of this codes, so you can check.
If anyone knows about what may be happening I'd be truly thankfull for your input.
Thank's in advance!

I am using windows impersonation in a CLR that is retrieving folder structure. In order to use impersonation I need to pass the windows credential to the SQL server so I am trying to use "integrated security=SSPI" and I also tried "integrated security=true" as well with the same result...I get the error: Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.
The SQL Server and IIS are located in different un-trusted domain. I am however able to connect to the SQL Server using user id and password. In my web.config file:
<add name="ConnectionName1" connectionString="Data Source=IpAddress,Port#;Initial Catalog=DatabaseName;Integrated Security=true;persist security info=False; Trusted_Connection=Yes;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/> à Doesn’t work
<add name="ConnectionName2" connectionString="Data Source=IpAddress,Port#;Initial Catalog=DatabaseName;uid=user;pwd=password;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/> Ă WorksBased on the error message it looks like there is no user passed to the SQL server.
What am I missing? At this point I am thankful for any input…

Hi,
I can use Http connection to Analysis Services 2005 from Excel but when I try to use IIS it fails.
AS and IIS are on different machines and not in the same domain.
In the event log of the server with AS i can see following event:

The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. You may be able to use the /AUXSOURCE= flag to retrieve this description; see Help and Support for details. The following information is part of the event: .
I assume it's permission issue. Excel and IIS must be using different user to connect to AS. I tried with different authentication methods on the iis but without success.

I'll say up front that this is going to be a long post because I plan on explaining my situation and what I've tried up front. It requires some explanation of how our application is secured since that appears to be interfering with SSIS being able to connect.
First the background scenario.
My company writes software that can use MS SQL or Oracle as the back end. I've begun work on an initiative to extract data to a star schema prior to purge in an attempt to improve reporting and analysis available to our customers. Initial plan is to use MS SQL Integration/Analysis/Reporting services for this. Even for our Oracle customers.
The problem symtoms.
I'm attempting to get a connection to Oracle with either an OLE DB or .Net provider. I've tried all available and get a ORA-12638: Credential retrieval failed error on all of them. I validate that a development username and password work using both SQL*Plus and Toad so troubleshooting begins. After some research I find that if I change my line for SQLNET.AUTHENTICATION_SERVICES in my sqlnet.ora file on the server from NTS to NONE that I can now get a connection with the SSIS Connection Manager.
The problem is, our application is secure and having this value set to NONE will never happen in production. I don't use it in dev or qa either. I also found that once I set this to none I could no longer connect with integrated security (EXTERNAL in Oracle speak) with Toad.
How our application is secured and why.
When setting up our application with Oracle as the back end we create only two users. One is the schema and owns all objects. It can't even log into the server though. The other is an external user. This users only rights are to log on and membership in a role. The role can execute stored procedures and nothing more. The application server services for our software run under the username of the external user in Oracle. That way we can use integrated security and no usernames or passwords are hard coded anywhere. Using an external user allows us to have our Windows application server work correctly with Oracle regardless of the OS that is hosting Oracle. This has made it easy on my developers since they just code for using integrated security and we have nearly identical data abstraction layers for both MS SQL and Oracle.
I've tried using the Integrated Security = True option in the .Net provider and still get the same error. I've tried passing / as the username and get the same error. I have a regular Oracle username/password in dev and qa environments that I provide the developers. It has more rights that the external user the services runs under so they can investigate what is happening behind the scenes. It works with Toad and SQL*Plus. When I use it in SSIS CM I get the same error message.
How do you use integrated security with Oracle from SSIS? I don't want to have to tell my boss that SSIS won't work for our Oracle customers.

I had a stand alone sql server that I upgraded to a cluster. I have an odbc connection called my_connection. The odbc test works fine. When I call the dsn from a php script it fails with this message:
Warning: odbc_connect(): SQL error: [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBNETLIB
]SQL Server does not exist or access denied., SQL state 08001 in SQLConnect in D
:storage est.php on line 3
Could not connect to my_connection!
This same script works fine from any other computer. Is there an issue with connecting to a virtual server from the node via ODBC? Is there something I need to change in the client protocols?

MicrosoftMSDTCMTxOCI]
"OracleXaLib"="oraclient8.dll"
"OracleSqlLib"="orasql8.dll"
"OracleOciLib"="oci.dll"
Changed the registry entries on my WindowsXP machine:
entry name old value new values
"OracleXaLib" xa80.dll oraclient10.dll
"OracleSqlLib" sqllib80.dll orasql10.dll
"OracleOciLib" oci.dll oci.dll
Then created the Linkserver definition:
EXEC sp_addlinkedserver 'ORA10G', 'ORACLE', 'MSDAORA', 'ORA10G'
Command(s) completed successfully.
EXEC sp_addlinkedsrvlogin 'ORA10G', 'FALSE',NULL, 'scott', 'tiger'
Command(s) completed successfully.
Note:
scott/tiger is given as an example here; used my real userid/pw instead. BTW, I am able to connect
to the Oracle database using the userid/pw from the same host that is running the Sqlserver db.So, the
Oracle client software is installed and is working correctly.
Then attempted to query a table on the Oracle database:
select count(*) from ORA10G..<schemaname>.<tablename>
Got the following error message(s)
OLE DB provider "MSDAORA" for linked server "ORA10G" returned message "ORA-12154: TNS:could not resolve the connect identifier specified
".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDAORA" for linked server "ORA10G".
All the previous discussions and suggested solutions are all for SqlServer 2000 and Oracle8. But I did not see much discussions on SqlServer2005 and Oracle10g. Any help to resolve this problem will be appreciated.
Thank you.

I'm new to SSIS and I'm having problems getting a remote connection to the SSIS service using Management Studio on my workstation. If I terminal Service onto the Server I have no problems connecting to SSIS, but if I try to connect remotely I get the "Access is denied" error message. I have completed the following steps:
To configure rights for remote users on Windows Server 2003 or Windows XP
1. If the user is not a member of the local Administrators group, add the user to the Distributed COM Users group. You can do this in the Computer Management MMC snap-in accessed from the Administrative Tools menu.
2. Open Control Panel, double-click Administrative Tools, and then double-click Component Services to start the Component Services MMC snap-in.
3. Expand the Component Services node in the left pane of the console. Expand the Computers node, expand My Computer, and then click the DCOM Config node.
4. Select the DCOM Config node, and then select MsDtsServer in the list of applications that can be configured.
5. Right-click on MsDtsServer and select Properties.
6. In the MsDtsServer Properties dialog box, select the Security tab.
7. Under Launch and Activation Permissions, select Customize, then click Edit to open the Launch Permission dialog box.
8. In the Launch Permission dialog box, add or delete users, and assign the appropriate permissions to the appropriate users and groups. The available permissions are Local Launch, Remote Launch, Local Activation, and Remote Activation. The Launch rights grant or deny permission to start and stop the service; the Activation rights grant or deny permission to connect to the service.
9. Click OK to close the dialog box. Close the MMC snap-in.
10. Restart the Integration Services service.
But I still get the Access is denied error from my workstation??
I have Power User rights on the server and I'm a sysadmin in the database instance. The SSIS packages I am trying to access are stored in the database. If I add myself to the local administrators group on the server I CAN get remote access, but this is not an acceptable solution in our production environment.
Thanks for any help

I have an
issue where SQL Server is refusing a connection that is initiated from
within a Windows service. The connection is attempted using the
SQLConnect ODBC function (yes I know there are newer and better things
out there but I'm stuck with ODBC for now ). SQLConnect returns
SQL_ERROR and the error code that is returned is:
28000
Invalid authorization specification
The value specified for the argument UserName or the value specified for the argument Authentication violated restrictions defined by the data source.
Now
it sounds like a username/password problem but when we attempt a
connection to the same server via a non-service program, everything
works fine (using the same username/password). We thought it might be
an ODBC issue at first but we can connect to a MySQL server using the
same programs/services just fine.
Checking the SQL Server setup, we do have both Windows accounts and SQL Server authentication enabled (under Security tab).
Anyone have any ideas?
thanks!

In testing new patches, I tried Windows 2003 Server SP2 and our JDBC connections stopped working. I uninstalled SP2 and they started working again. Anyone know where the problem is?
I have already read pages of documentation, but I will keep looking. Please let me know if you know the setting that needs to be changed. I'm assuming it is a new "security enhancement" but I'm just not sure exactly where.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I have an app that creates and attaches tables from SQL Server into an Access mdb using an ODBC link from VB6 using DAO 3.51 on Windows 2000. Recently I upgraded to SQL Server Express edition and tested it. It worked fine against the Express Edition. So, I installed SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition on our Server hoping that they operate identically. How wrong one can be! the same code that worked against Express Edition does not work on Standard Edition.
It is strange that the App works for about 5 seconds which attaches about 38 tables and after that the connection drops and I have a hell of a time to get the rest of the tables linked. The error that comes up is:
Connection failed:
SQLState: '01000'
SQL Server Error: 10060
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][TCP/IP Sockets]ConnectionOpen (connect()).
Connection failed:
SQLState: '08001'
SQL Server Error: 11
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][TCP/IP Sockets]General network error. Check your network documentation.
The PC that I am using to connect is in a different domain to the Server where the SQL Server database resides. I thought that domains might be the reason. But even joining the PC to the same domain as the server still does not work and behaves the same. So I do not think it is a domain related issue.
I have also looked at the SQL Server and database configurtaions. I cannot see anywhere any specific time out of around 5 seconds. Even the time out through the SQL Server ODBC driver is set to 30 seconds by default as far as I know. So, it looks like there is a time out somewhere but I am absolutely confused as to where this 5 second time out is comming from.
I also thought permissions on the database or tables might be the issue but after looking at the database and table permissions, they all look OK. The user has prettymuch the same access as the SA on the database.
Has anybody came across this problem? If so, I appreciate if someboday can give me a hint as to where I can start.
Thanks,

Hi guys, Im desperately hoping someone here can help me. Ive been trying to set up merge replication between 2 servers all weekend and it keeps failing. Im setting this up as follows
The Publisher/Distributor is a SQL Server 2005 machine, the database being replicated is 4gb, and the only subscriber is a SQL Server 2000 SP4 machine. I set up my publication normally, and set up the push subscription, adn set it to initialize immediately. It weill then start bulk copying and go on for about 3-4 hours before it fails and gives me the errors:
Error messages:
The merge process was unable to deliver the snapshot to the Subscriber. If using Web synchronization, the merge process may have been unable to create or write to the message file. When troubleshooting, restart the synchronization with verbose history logging and specify an output file to which to write. (Source: MSSQL_REPL, Error number: MSSQL_REPL-2147201001)

This is driving me crazy as I havent slept in ages trying to get this fixed. Anyone have any idea whats going on? Its always one of 2 tables so far that keep failing, ContactLog and Content, what can I do?
