here is my error message wich can also be seen live at www.aspdoug.com/menu log in with user: doug pass: macromedia! -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Server Error in '/menu' Application.
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. SQLExpress database file auto-creation error: The connection string specifies a local Sql Server Express instance using a database location within the applications App_Data directory. The provider attempted to automatically create the application services database because the provider determined that the database does not exist. The following configuration requirements are necessary to successfully check for existence of the application services database and automatically create the application services database:
If the applications App_Data directory does not already exist, the web server account must have read and write access to the applications directory. This is necessary because the web server account will automatically create the App_Data directory if it does not already exist. If the applications App_Data directory already exists, the web server account only requires read and write access to the applications App_Data directory. This is necessary because the web server account will attempt to verify that the Sql Server Express database already exists within the applications App_Data directory. Revoking read access on the App_Data directory from the web server account will prevent the provider from correctly determining if the Sql Server Express database already exists. This will cause an error when the provider attempts to create a duplicate of an already existing database. Write access is required because the web server accounts credentials are used when creating the new database. Sql Server Express must be installed on the machine. The process identity for the web server account must have a local user profile. See the readme document for details on how to create a local user profile for both machine and domain accounts.

Basically I've been using Visual Studio 2005 for a few weeks now moving a Pocket PC project from 2003 to 2005. When I hit the Start Debugging Button every time until today the project would rebuild and deploy to my pocket PC allowing me to debug etc but now I get
The remote connection to the device has been lost.
Please verify the device conection and restart debugging.
I used to get this problem in VS2003 sometimes and just like the numerous posts on different sites that I've looked at the problem eventually goes away and I'm none the wiser. One guy said that he found that if he went to bed the problem was resolved when he came back!
My PDA running Windows 2003 2nd Edition is directly connected to my PC via a USB port. I've rebooted my PC and done a soft reset on the PDA but it didn't help. I'm using ActiveSync 4.1.
I have a SQL Server database that I connect a front end to using an ODBC connection. Our LAN folks upgraded the server recently and now I can no longer see any of the tables through the ODBC connection that the user used for login has permission in SQL Server Enterprise Manager to see - throught the ODBC connection the user can only see things like:
I've tried deleting the user for the connection and re-establishing it with owner permissions. I've tried deleting the dsn and re-establishing that as well but nothing so far.
Hi,I have a problem. When my computer loses connection toserver during transaction it is rolled back automaticlyby server after 2-5 minutes. During the time a can resetmy computer, run my program again and I can seedata from not commited transaction becouse I have toset isolation level to read uncommited.How to force the server immediately rollback transaction?TIAclint
I've run int o a perplexing problem. I have a SSRS setup on my local box. Everything has been working fine for weeks, up until now.
Recently, I had to change my password in our domain - which chouldn't be a big deal. But now when trying to connect to the report server, I get the following:
The report server cannot open a connection to the report server database. The logon failed. (rsReportServerDatabaseLogonFailed) Get Online Help
Logon failure: unknown user name or bad password. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x8007052E) What's odd is the fact that I'm able to connect to the database just fine via Management Studio and run queries. I haven't changed ANY settings in SSRS or IIS. And everything is set up to use Windows Integrated authorization...
I've had a VB 6 / SQL Server 2000 app running in a network enviroment for a couple of years now at a client of mine. Recently, he upgraded to the latest version of Quickbooks which installed SQL Server 2005 on the server. Now there is SQL Server 2000 and 2005 residing on the same server. My VB app still runs on the server but will not run on other machines. I can ping the server from the other machines. Has SQL 2005 taken over the port I was using or maybe has new security features that won't let me access SQL 2000 using my current connection string? Here is my current connection string: mstrConnStr = "Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=" & strServerLogin & ";Password=" & strServerPW & ";Initial Catalog=" & strDBName & ";Data Source=" & strServer.
I have Outlook 2007 w/BCM running on XP Pro workstation connecting to a SBS 2003 R2 hosting my SQL 2005 database. I have two problems: First I can get the BCM to connect to the remote data but periodically the connection is lost and many times it requires a reboot to reconnect. Secondly related to teh first, I can never get MS Accounting 2007 to connect to the same server and database from my client.
I have already set up the server to use port 5356 via TCP amd added a hole through my client windows firewall for the same port. Both client and server are set to share files and printers.
I updated my SQL Server 2005 db server with Windows 2003 SP2 and other windows updates and now other applications are loosing their connections to the SQL server after a period of inactivity.
The ERP software and MSSS Managment Studio loose their connections if the connection sits idle for a couple of hours. When in Management Studio I get the following error: Msg 10054, Level 20, State 0, Line 0 A transport-level error has occurred when sending the request to the server. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.)....
Has anyone seen this? Do I need to add SP1 for MS SQL 2005?
My problem is, I am writing a code with classic asp, to connect to sqlexpres database and somehow something blocking me. My first try was unsuccessfull , it was keep getting timeout. then I did something and now I am getting this error message shown below;
Error Type: Microsoft OLE DB Service Components (0x80040E21) Multiple-step OLE DB operation generated errors. Check each OLE DB status value, if available. No work was done. /myfolder/opendb.asp, line 5
I am using SA user to connecto the server. When I checked the server with managment tool I found out sa doesn't have permission to use this new database of mine. So I tried to add that by going into
Security>logins>SA >properties > usermapping. Then I found and checked the new database . I get an error message shown below;
Create failed for user 'sa' (microsoft.sqlserver.express.smo)
additional information:
an exception occured while executing a transact-sql statement or batch.
(microsoft.sqlserver.express.connectioninfo)
Cannot use the special principal 'sa' (microsoft sql error, error 15405)
More and more often, I am seeing this error message in RS subscriptions. I would assume it means the IIS server can't connect to the corporate exchange server. However I was wondering if there is some timeout setting/configuration in RS or the IIS server (or any other kind of setting) I can change to help alleviate this problem.
Has anyone else experienced this? Or know how to fix it?
Thanks,
Jeff
UPDATE: After looking closer at the subscriptions, I have noticed that subscriptions set up by a RS Admin (who is also a server admin) seem to be working fine. It is the subscriptions that are set up by ordinary users that are failing...
So i get this version of sqlexpress up and running and i copy all my databases over on to it. Redo my Logins for te server and then add the the DSN to ODBC admin console. And still no good >:_( this is the error i get:
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Cannot open database "publicSite" requested by the login. The login failed.
I write a .NET Windows Form that connect to SQLExpress datafile. After updating data, I want to zip the .mdf file and send email. However, I got an exeption that the .mdf file is used by other thread so I cant zip. Even I try to close all connection, I still cant zip.
Is there any way to detach/unlock .mdf file connecting by SQLExpress?
I see this question a lot, so I thought I would go ahead and post the answer here.
Q: How many connections does SQL Server Express support?
A: Unlike MSDE, SQL Server Express does not limit connections. SQL Server Express supports:
1 gb RAM (note the machine can have more memory, but 1gb will be used by SQL Express) 1 processor (again, the machine can have more, but just 1 proc will be used by SQL Express) 4 gb database size (note, there can be multiple databases, but none of them individually can be more than 4 gb)
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
I am having difficulty converting my CGI(perl module) connection from mySQL to SQLexpress. Does anyone know what the connection string should look like? Listed here is my current connection string. I'm trying to get this done this week. Please email me if you have an answer in addition to posting.
I followed an excellent tutorial (from Microsoft) about creating and using a SQLExpress db table internal to your website and the site I created works just fine - locally. When I publish to my web host provider I get this error:
[SqlException (0x80131904): An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)]
My web host provider supports .NET 2.0 but doesn't support MS SQL Server. But that should matter - right? Because I'm putting the db instance right in the website?
I did a search and followed some of the advice:
I went into the SQL Server Surface Area Config Mgr and set SQLExpress for local and remote connections and rebooted/republished. I also have SQL Server 2005 installed as a separate entity (if that makes a difference).
I still get the above error. This is the connection string from the web.config:
I am running SqlExpress on a Vista machine as a server and accessing it from machines running XP. I could not connect with the Vista server until I turned off the firewall, despite creating exceptions for both the sqlexpress and sqlbrowser services in the firewall setup. Obviously, I don't want to run on a wireless network without a firewall for any length of time. What else to I need to enable in order to run with my firewall up? In SMSS, I could 'see' the Vista server on the network with the firewall up, but I could not 'see' the SERVERSQLEXPRESS service or connect to it .
I am using Visual Studio 2005. I am creating an SQL database with a web enabled front end. I am using Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio to create the database objects and an ASP.NET web page created in Visual Studio for the front end. My problem is centered around the two server instances which come with Visual Studio (MSSQLSERVER and SQLEXPRESS). The database objects are being created on MSSQLSERVER by Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio. However, in a Visual Studio ASP.NET web page, when I create a new conection string using the menu functionality, in the SQLDATASOURCE object or in the server explorer, only (My Computer Name)SQLEXPRESS shows up as an option. I have tried typing (My Computer Name)MSSQLSERVER in but the database list just comes up blank. I know that MSSQLSERVER exists because I have one active connection string to it created by a friend. They had to juggle a lot of things to make MSSQLSERVER appear and since I was just getting started then it went over my head. Whatever they did was temporary though and I havn't been able to repeat it to add new connection strings. To eliminate some of the obvious things in other posts:
*MSSQLSERVER is Started in the Services Screen *In the configuration manager MSSQLSERVER has shared memory enabled *On the advice of one post or proceedure I enabled TCP/IP and restarted the service (I think this is actually for remote connections everything I am doing is on one PC)
What I really want is to have things permanently set up so MSSQLSERVER always shows up as an option when creating a connection string in Visual Studio. If this means getting rid of SQLEXPRESS I won't shed too many tears.
As you have noticed everything in this is centered around Visual Studio's menu functionality. I am currently make thee code paradigm shifts.
Form -> ASP.NET VB6 -> VB .method ADO -> SQL
I have created some pages in ASP.NET and have started creating objects using source instead of designer. I have automated some of the functionality on those pages using VB .method programing While I have created some simple SQL select and bulk insert statements my SQL is still pretty weak and I haven't learned connection strings or driving changes back to the database using Transact-SQL
I am using a virtual dedicated server to host sqlexpress at a remote site. I can't get the connection from MS SQL Server Management Studio Express to connect over the Internet. I only have the box IP address (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx) and have tried various forms of xxx.xxx.xxx.xxxsqlexpress as the server name.
Can someone point me in the right direction please?
When I use asp.net 2.1 to connect sql 2005 express locally I got error message to say
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 25 - Connection string is not valid)
Hello, I had started my project with the express edition, then I switched to the pro one. The problem is that in my webconfig I still have .SQLEXPRESS and I don't know how to modify that to use the full version of Sql server. <add name="MyConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|MyDataBase.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" /> When I look at the surface area manager I can see that I have 2 instances running : MSSQLSERVER and SQLEXPRESS.When starting Sql Server Management Studio I can connect to 2 servers: NEWDELL and NEWDELLSQLEXPRESS.And when I try to replace SQLEXPRESS by MSSQLSERVER in the connectionstring, then it doesn't connect.I remember having lost connection already when playing with all these tools, so I pay attention now ! That's why any help would be really appreciated ! Thank you.
The SQL ERRORLOG shows: Error is 3414, Severity 21, State 2 and says: "An error occurred during recovery, preventing the database 'model' (database ID 3) from restarting." Just prior to this, I get a warning: "did not see LP_CKPT_END".
Any thoughts why this might be and how I can fix this?
I have created an installation application which will install the application with SQL Express and .NET Framework 2.0.
If i install this application in a Fresh system(i.e which is not having SQL Express), it is installing the application with new database instance successfully.
But if i try to install the same in a system which is already having SQL Express, throwing "Object reference exception" because it is not able to create the new database instance.
Because of numerous problems trying to get sqlexpress working, I uninstalled it with the intention of reinstalling (via Add or Remove Programs). However, now when I try to reinstall it, I get a message that the I am not making a changes so it won't let me install it.
I do have sql server 2005 developer's edition installed; is that the reason? and does that mean I cannot have both installed on the same machine?
Hi All,I've been struggling with this for hours...Could someone please advise me on how to convert my current File based SQL Server Express website to a Server based SQL Express one.Particularly interested in what I need to do in the SQL Express management tool, changes I need to make the projecvt itself and changes needed to get IIS to understand things have been changed.Thanks,Martin.
Hi all......well ill try and explain what I dont understand :-(
I am completely new to SQL. I have downloaded SQL Server Express 2005. I guess I need to download another program now like SQL Query Analyaer so that I can query a database - can anyone recommend a free download that will do the job?? I had a play around with one that I downloaded but to be honest, I have no idea on how to get the two programs talking.
Is someone able to guide me through how to initially set up SQl Server and how to get evrything working??
