Linked Database

Mar 5, 2008

I have a Microsoft Access 2007 Database that I want to move the data from Access 2007 to SQL Server 2005 Express. I have SQL Server 2005 installed but if I link to the Access 2007 Database so I can run the insert into Query to copy the data I get an error message stating that the linked Server failed the connection test. What am I missing here? I used the
sp_addlinkedsvr to link the access Database and I've used the sp_addlinkedsvrlogin but nothing works. I get the same error message every time.

DB Engine :: How To Point Linked Server To Specific Database / Rename Linked Server

Apr 24, 2015

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:

USE [master]
GO
EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedserver
    @server = N'Machine123Instance456',
    @srvproduct=N'SQL Server' ;
GO
EXEC sp_addlinkedsrvlogin 'Machine123Instance456', 'false', NULL, 'username', 'password'

Updating Sql Database From Linked Access Database

Jul 1, 2004

I got thrown into a new project that is going to require me to update an SQL server database tables from an Access table on the backend of an Oracle database on another server. At the end of each day the Access dabase will be updated from the Oracle database.

What I need to do, is when the Access database is updated I need to have the table in the SQL database automaticaly updated. When a new record is added to the Access table I need the new record added to the SQL table. When a record is deleted in the Access table I need to keep that record in the SQL table and set a field to a value (such as 0). And when a record is updated in Access, have it updated in SQL.

Needless to say this is a bit out of my area and not sure how to accomplish this.

Any help is greatly appreciated.

Linked SQL 2000 Database

Apr 26, 2008



Hi,

We have a Webshop that is very old and we can't change the SQL server that it access.
But we had to upgrade the MS SQL server to a new hardware so we now have two SQL 2000 servers (the old one and the new one). All relevant data is on the new one but the webshop ONLY read from the old one)

How can I link the database on the old server soit can read and write to teh database on the new server.
What I mean is that I want the webserver to access the old SQL server (with a linked database to the new SQL server) so all data on the old database is the new database.

Is this possible and in that case how?


Both SQL servers are SQL 2000 (old one SP3 and new one SP4) Its no problem to upgrade the old one to SP4 aswell.

/Martin

Foreign Keys From A Linked Database?

Apr 23, 2002

Hello!

I am Paolo, a 3rd year college student taking up computer science. I am currently doing a project as part of my on the job training but am stumped! Maybe you can help! ;)

software used:
Sql Server 2000

The facts:
1. there is a CARS database on server 1 (carId, carDescription)
2. there is an issues and problems tracking database on server 2 (problemId, problemDescription)
3. I am supposed to extend the functionality of the issues and problems tracking database to include the cars. i.e. the database on server 2 should look like: (problemID, problemDescription, carId)

The question:
Is there a way i can put a foreign key constraint on server2's carID so that i can only input carIDs which are in the CARS table on server1?

The only way i can think of is to make a new table in server1 and just drag a froeign key relationship in enterprise manager's designer, but my boss doesnt want to keep both information on the same db!

Any ideas?
Many thanks!

Create (U)SP In Database On Linked Server

Aug 1, 2006

Hi,
I'm using a couple of linked servers.
I want to create a stored procedure on all of the linked servers in a database with a name which exists on all of the linked servers.
For executing SQL on all of the linked servers I'm using:

declare @x int
declare @dbname varchar(500)
declare @SQL nvarchar(600)
set @x = 1
create table #databases (ID int IDENTITY,name varchar(500))
insert #databases select instancelongname from instances
while @x <= (select max(id) from #databases)
begin
select @dbname = name from #databases where id = @x
select @SQL='blabla bla bla create PROCEDURE [dbo].[usp_xxxx]'
execute @SQL
set @x = @x + 1
end
drop table #databases

Is it possible to use a ‘create procedure’ in this construction?
Can anybody give me some help how to create a proper syntax for it?

Any help is kindly appreciated!

Linked Server To A MySQL Database

Feb 25, 2004

Hi,

I've installed MyODBC-3.51.06 and succsesfully created 2 odbc sources to the MySQL database with the ODBC data source administrator. One is a User DSN, the other a system DSN (Q1: what's the difference?) The test in that applet perfoms positively.

Running a dataimport of the tables using the import data option in enterprise manager does work as well.

Now for the part that gives me trouble. I would like to create a linked server using enterprise manager of SQL server 2000 (SQL 8.00.194) but I'm totaly stuck there. So Q2: how to get this set up?

ODBC Connection To A Linked Database

Jan 22, 2006

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 Linked To Oracle Database...very Slow...why?

Dec 26, 2003

Hi i have a sql server instance on my system and it is linking into an oracle database on another server. When i run queries against this other server...it takes forever...

However, when i use access, and link the table and run the same query against the oracle database...it runs immediatly.

I am very confused as to why there would be such a performance difference and why sql server would run so slow.

I am wondering if it has something to do with the way i configured the linked server. there are several options that I didn't know what they meant.

collation compatible (not selected)
Data access (selected)
RPC (not selected)
RPC Out (not selected)
collation name
connection timeout

Creating A Linked Server To An Oracle Database

Aug 29, 2000

Hi all,

I hope someone can help me with linked servers.

In one of my applications running on a MSSQL database, I need to issue a select call to an Oracle database to pull information into my application.

To accomplish this,

1. the ORacle Admin has created a view of the Oracle database for me.
2. I have installed the Oracle client on the SQl server box.
3. A friend has told me that one way to accomplish this is create a linked server from SQL to use OLE/DB for Oracle to connect to the Oracle database
4. So I create the linked server successfully; create the server login sp_addlinkedsrvlogin successfully
5. When I go to query the database, I get the error below:


Server: Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
OLE DB provider 'MSDAORA' reported an error.
[OLE/DB provider returned message: The Oracle(tm) client and networking components were not found. These components are supplied by Oracle Corporation and are part of the Oracle Version 7.3.3 (or greater) client software installation.

You will be unable to use this provider until these components have been installed.]


Anybody understand this?


Thanks in advance,

Query Data From The Linked Foxpro Database

Aug 2, 2007

hello,guys,

my question is :
how do I query data from the linked foxpro database?

more:
I have linked a visual foxpro server to my sql server database by using the addserver clause.
Two server is in a local network.
My linked foxpro server named 'fox'.
its datasourse is not a dbc file, but a directory of dbf files ,and its full path is d:foxpro object.
In the directory ,there are three table,'show2003.dbf','sysu.dbf','szszj.dbf'.
And the .dbf files are not in any database.
They are just three files in the same directory.
There is no dbc file.
Now I can see the table list on the right page of the linked server.
But there is something wrong with my sql clause.

sample:

select * from fox..sysu


then the message is:
server: message 7313,level 16,status 1,row 1
the appointed constructure or directory to the provider is inefficacious 'MSDASQL'


I know I may use 'openquery',or 'openrowset'.
The problem is that variable is not valid in 'openquery' and 'openrowset'.
But I must use variable.
so ,please give me some advice.



Thank you very much

View Tables In Linked Access Database

Apr 14, 2008

Hey everyone. I've linke an access database and I am able to query the tables like so:


SELECT *
FROM QFinity...tblEmployees

I can do that to all the tables, however, I'd like to create a view to this linked database. Is this possible? I have a more complex query I'd like to run:



SELECT dbo_evaluations.eval_id, dbo_evaluations.quality_date, dbo_eval_questions.status
FROM QFinity...dbo_evaluations INNER JOIN dbo_eval_questions ON dbo_evaluations.eval_id = dbo_eval_questions.eval_id;

I get the error "Msg 208, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Invalid object name 'dbo_evaluations'."

I'm afraid I've reached the limit of my know how concerning sql server 2005... I think I read that I need to create a view? But I can't figure out how to do that.

Thanks for any help!

Cannot Get Linked Server Working To Oracle 10.1 Database

May 16, 2007

Hi -

I am having an issue trying to get a linked server to work from SQL Server 2000 SP4 to an Oracle 10.1 database. This server runs Windows 2003 Server.

I had first installed the Oracle client 10.2 on the server and was able to access the Oracle db using the client.

However - when I set up the linked server on SQL Server - and click the "Tables" underneath the linked server - I get the following error.

OLE DB Provider reported an error.

OLE DB error trace [OLE/DB Provider 'MSDAORA' IDBInitialize::Initialize returned]

I uninstalled the 10.2 client and put the Oracle 9i client on the server (on a suggestion from a SQL Server DBA to put an earlier client on the server) - still able to connect using the Oracle client - but not via SQL Server.

I have checked to make sure the MSDAORA.dll is registered. I have also checked that the account that SQL Server starts under has proper permissions to the Oracle folders (that login has admin permissions on the server).

I have named the Linked Server the same name as the service name in tsanames.ora.

I'm at a loss - any ideas? Help - i'm tearing my hair out here.

SQL 2012 :: Linked Server To Lotus Notes Database

Nov 24, 2014

I'm having a few issues trying to get a linked server setup from a new SQL2012 installation to a Lotus Notes database. This linked server has previously been working fine on our old SQL2005 environment. All setup using the same details (ODBC driver name matches, account details etc). If we test the connection from the Lotus ODBC driver the test connection is successful, If I then create the Linked server to access this ODBC driver I receive an error :

Cannot initialize the data source object OLE DB Provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "LotusTest"

OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "LotusTest" returned message "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetAttr failed"

Unable to find path to server. check your network connection is working.(Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 7303)We have just migrated to a SQL Server 2012 64 bit Enterprise from SQL Server 2005 32 bit Standard. We have a 64 bit Lotus client installed to provide the correct ODBC driver which has enabled the test connection direct from the ODBC driver to connect successfully. I'm just at a loss as to how to resolve this issue and get the linked server connecting.

Move Data From Tables On Linked Server To Normal Database?

Nov 10, 2014

I'm trying to find a way to insert data from a TableA on ServerA into TableB on ServerB using SSIS in Visual Studio.

The specification I was given is basically

Insert INTO TableB AS (Select * from TableA WHERE NOT EXISTS on TableB).

I can't use a linked server unfortunately.

I wonder if it possible to move data from tables on a linked server to a "normal database"? What am I doing wrong?

Strange Error On Linked Server - Cannot Open Default Database

Apr 16, 2007

Hi,We have 2 servers. Server1 is a 2000 box, with SP3 (yes I know it isnot up to date). Server2 is a 2005 box, SP2.I set up Server1 (2000) to have a linked server to Server2 (2005). Thereason I did this is because we are using a stored procedure onServer2 to send mail, as we have found that using mail on 2000 doesn'talways work as advertised.When I set up the linked server on the 2000 box, for security I justset it up to use a SQL Server user on the 2005 box. The SQL Serveruser on the 2005 box has permissions to run the stored procedure forsending mail.Here's the weird thing though. When calling the stored procedure onthe 2005 box from the 2000 box, sometimes we get an error that "Thedefault database cannot be opened", and the query does not run on the2005 box. However, it only happens *sometimes*. Other times, the queryruns fine.Since the problem seeemed to be with the default database, I changedthe SQL Server user on 2005 default database to the SAME database thatcontains the stored procedure.However, I just don't understand why it's even TRYING to open thedefault database, since when we called the linked server we are doingso as, and it's referencing the default database in the name:EXEC Server2.DefaultDatabase.dbo.StoredProcedureNameHowever, after changing the user's default database to"DefaultDatabase" as shown above, the query runs fine.Why are we having this problem? That is, if I change the defaultdatabase to something other than "DefaultDatabase", then the querydoesn't run, even though the database name is referenced in the abovequery??Obviously, this is not desireable, because that means we can only runqueries that are in "DefaultDatabase", which may not always be thecase.Thanks much

Integration Services :: Connect Database Across 2 Domains Using Linked Server?

Oct 4, 2015

We have an Enterprise setup with multiple domains.

We a Domain A with SQL server 2008R2 say SQL-A and Domain B with SQL server 2008R2 ( SQL-B). It will be like SQL-A will always access SQL-B. Reverse is not required.

In Domain A we have a .Net Application which accesses SQL-A to perform CRUD operations which ultimately come to SQL- B since all SQL tables exist in SQL- B only.

Need to know the right way to implement Linked Server from SQL-A to SQL-B, so that Domain issues as well as DML execution work smooth.

I need not worry about DDL in SQL-A And SQL-B as it will taken care of by network and H/W team. I just need to focus on as developer.

Configuring A Linked Microsoft Access Database On SQL Server 2005

Nov 7, 2007

The following installation:

- Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition running on Microsoft Windows Server 2003 Standard Edition
- Client Service for Netware installed.
- Access 2000 database in a Novell Directory Services (NDS) Environment
- SQL Server service running under local Administrator account.


Linked server configured as follow:

Linked server: MyDB
Provider: Microsoft Jet 4.0 OLE DB Provider
Product name: Access 2000
Data Source: UNC path to my Access database

Security: Admin with no password (default Access behaviour)

I can connect to my access database by following the next steps:

- Open Management studio on the SQL Server itself (where I'm logged in as Administrator)
- Connect using Windows Authentication (Administrator)
- Create a new query, run EXEC sp_tables_ex 'MyDB'

This will return all the tables from the Access database.

I can also make a view pointing to MyDB...MyTable.

Enough prove to me It can work....

So far so good


But now the tricky part.

When I login as 'sa', I can't connect and will receive the following message:

OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "MyDB" returned message "'Full UNC to my access database' is not a valid path. Make sure that the path name is spelled correctly and that you are connected to the server on which the file resides.".Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_tables_ex, Line 41Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "MyDB".


(In real life I want to connect to my SQL 2005 Server from a ASP.NET (2.0) application using SQL authentication, but as long as I can't get the above working this is not important for now)

Newbie: Why Do I Have To Use OPENQUERY To A Linked Server? (ODBC To Firebird Database)

Jan 17, 2008

Hello,

pls. let me know where I could post if this is the wrong place.

I have a Firebird 1.5 application. I created a linked server from my SQL
Server 2000 to the firebird database. In SQL Server Query Analyzer I get errors from various ODBC drivers with "normal" queryies like

SELECT LVNR FROM LINKEDSRV...LVVERW

Pls. note, this all works perfectly in MS Access databases with ODBC-Links to Firebird!


From a programmer of a commercial ODBC driver I heard that this problem may be caused internally by SQL Server, there may be no solution possible in the ODBC driver. One workaround would be to use the OPENQUERY-Syntax like

SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(LINKEDSRV, 'select LVNR from LVVERW ')

Are there any other solutions? Are there any known issues with firebird odbc-drivers and sql server? Are
there any known good drivers for the use with sql-server? What is the purpose of OPENQUERY - workaround ODBC problems? Are there any settings in SQL Server 2000 (2005 Express) that could help? Are there any settings in ODBC DSN that would help?

regards

arno

Unexpected Error From External Database Driver (MS Access Linked Table)

Oct 19, 2006

OS: Windows XP (SP2)
App: MS Access 2003 (SP2)
DB: MS SQL 2000 (SP4, 2040)

User is using MS Access linked table to query database (using ODBC). User can open the query in MS Access. However when the user goes to export the data to MS Excel format, the user receives the error message:

"Unexpected Error from External Database Driver (22)."

A trace on the db, reveals that the user process is attempting to log in to the server as 'Admin'. However, when the query with the linked table is first opened, the user is prompted for username/password (non Windows authentication).

Any ideas? I googled and found some stuff, but nothing directly related and most of what I found was supposedly fixed with SP1.

Any help appreciated. I am not an Access guru.

Replication :: Populating Local Database Daily With Data From Linked Servers?

Jul 29, 2015

I have multiple web databases for storefront orders as linked servers on SQL Server 2008 R2. I need to organize the data for these orders into a structure that can be imported into my ERP application db frequently either on demand or periodically during the day. We are essentially trying to make the manual order entry process automated. My thought was to get the data into views that resemble the schema of the order table in my application db and then schedule a stored procedure with sql jobs or a load routine from within the ERP application that would insert data from the view into the order table.

Trouble Using ADOX To Create Linked Tables In Jet Database From An ODBC Datasource

Jun 5, 2007

Hai,

I am using ADOX to create linked tables in a jet database from an ODBC datasource.
The tables in the ODBC data source does not have a primary key.
so I am only able to create read only linked tables.But I want to update the records also.
I tried adding a primary key column to the linked table while creating the link.
but I am getting an error while adding the table to the catalog.

The error message is "Invalid Argument".

I use the following code for creating the linked table

Sub CreateLinkedTable(ByVal strTargetDB As String, ByVal strProviderString As String, ByVal strSourceTbl As String, ByVal strLinkTblName As String)

Dim catDB As ADOX.Catalog
Dim tblLink As ADOX._Table

Dim ADOConnection As New ADODB.Connection

ADOConnection.Open("Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;" & "Data Source=" & strTargetDB & ";User Id=admin;Password=;")

catDB = New ADOX.Catalog

catDB.ActiveConnection = ADOConnection

tblLink = New ADOX.Table

With tblLink

' Name the new Table and set its ParentCatalog property
' to the open Catalog to allow access to the Properties
' collection.
.Name = strLinkTblName
.ParentCatalog = catDB

' Set the properties to create the link.
Dim adoxPro As ADOX.Property

adoxPro = .Properties("Jet OLEDB:Create Link")
adoxPro.Value = True

adoxPro = .Properties("Jet OLEDB:Link Provider String")
adoxPro.Value = strProviderString

adoxPro = .Properties("Jet OLEDB:Remote Table Name")
adoxPro.Value = strSourceTbl


End With

'Adding primary key,
'***** the source column name is "Code" ******
tblLink.Keys.Append("PrimaryKey", ADOX.KeyTypeEnum.adKeyPrimary, "Code")

'Append the table to the Tables collection.
'******The exception occurs on the following line***********
catDB.Tables.Append(tblLink)

'Append the primary index to table.
catDB = Nothing

End Sub

If I avoid the line for adding the primary key,everything works fine,but the table ctreated is readonly.

Thanks in advance

Help Connecting Ole/db Linked Server To Msaccess Database In A Different Machine Than Sql Server Resides

Jun 29, 2007

Hi,



I have a msaccess linked server that I use to execute sql 2000 stored procedures from a front end in adp (access data project) format without any problem, if it is used on the same machine where the sql server resides (with any user logged on). In any other machine on the local network where I also need to use it, I get an ole/db error message saying that the microsoft jet database engine can not open the file because it's allready opened exclusivly or because it do not has permissions. I created the linked server with both UNC and normal path with the same result.

Thank's for all the help/clues you can give me.
