I am trying to connect to a remote MSDE SQL database. When I set up the odbc connection I get a connection denied error. The SQL server is on a windows 2003 server. Any ideas are greatly appreciated.
Thanks, LinsLo
setup MSDE command:
setup sapwd=19820822
connection test file:
<%@ import Namespace="System.Data" %>

data_src.text = strConnection
Dim objConnection as New SqlConnection(strConnection)
'now we attempt to open the connection
try
objConnection.Open()

Hi;
Installed MSDE on computer by running:
c:setup INSTANCENAME="VSdotNET" SAPWD="PASSWORD" SECURITYMODE=SQL
REBOOTED AND sql SERVER iCON APPEARS on the lower desktop Icon bar, open it and it says:
Server: JOHN Servises: SQL Server Running \JOHN - MSSQLServer
opened a command prompt at c: and
entered osql -S JOHN -U sa -P password
and got the 1> reply on the next line
I typed EXIT
I had downloaded two scripts that create Pubs and Northwind SQL databases. I put them in the C: folder
I Typed at c:osql -E -i instpubs.sql
It created the pubs SQL database for me
I Typed at c:osql -E -i instnwinds.sql
It created the nwinds SQL database for me
I closed the command prompt and
went to the Administrator Tools in the Control Panel
I selected Data OLEDB Selected ADD entered Pubs and used default values for Pubs to create a connection Tested it OK
Then went and ran Visual Studio Net 2003
Checked to see if the pubs and northwind SQL databases where present in the Server Explorer drop down window.
I seleced the connect to database Icon and in it's Data Link Properties
I entered JOHN for server name
pubs for selected database on the server
with Provider as MS OLEDB for SQL Service
the Icon changed to connected.
I entered this in the code for page_load
Dim MyDS As New DataSet
Dim ConnStr As String
Dim SQL As String
ConnStr = "server=(local)C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLData;database=pubs;Trusted_Connection=yes"
SQL = "SELECT * FROM Titles " & _
"SELECT * FROM Publishers"
Dim MySqlConn As New SqlConnection(ConnStr)
Dim MySqlAdapter As New SqlDataAdapter(SQL, ConnStr)
'The SqlDataAdapter will automatically open and
'close the SqlConnection
MySqlAdapter.Fill(MyDS)
But I can not get this to work it errors out on line:
MySQLAdapter.Fill(myDS)
with: [SqlException (0x80131904): Unknown ProviderError Locating Server/Instance Specified ]
System.Data.ProviderBase.DbConnectionPool.GetConnection(Object owningObject) +317
I change ConnStr to this:
ConnStr = "server=(local)data;database=pubs; uid=sa; Pwd=password" & _
"Trusted_Connection=true"
and get this error:
[SqlException (0x80131904): Shared Memory Provider: The system cannot find the file specified.
]
System.Data.ProviderBase.DbConnectionPool.GetConnection(Object owningObject) +317
I've tried so many combination with and without user and password, I just don't get it, spent three long days stuck here, can someone help me out.
Note:
C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLData
Is the accual location on my machine that pubs database is located.
I can use the pubs SQL database in Web Matrix OK.
Thanks

I have instal VS Studio and MSDE. For experimental purposes I have not instal office and SQL. I wanted to see if I could connect to the MSDE. But each time I try to connect I receive the error message Access Denied or SQL Server does not exist.
Any help folks.
I have installed the MSDE that comes with VS NET 2002. For experimental reason's I have decided not to instal SQL and Office XP.
But the problem I have is that anytime I try to connect I receive an exception. The exception message is "No SQL server or Access Denied". I am not too sure if I am not doing something right or I have to instal office or SQL. I have created my database using the visual tools in the VS NET 2002.
Any help will very much be appreciated.
Hi,
I've just started to learn ASP.net using Scott Mitchell's book:ASP.NET in 24 hours. But i've got a little problem in the database section.
I couldn't connect with a MSDE from webmatrix using sql server authentication even the username and password are correct.
The error message :
"unable to connect to the database server:Login failed for user 'sa'. Reason:not associated with a trusted SQL server connection".
What does it mean? Have any of you ever had this kind of problem?
Thank you for helping me.
Regards,
tom
Hi,
I installed MSDE and the sample databases with it. They work fine.
Well I am using the server explorer of visaula studio standard 2002. I can see all the sample databases there and connect to them as well.
1.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Now i created a new database named "testDb" and in a similar fashion i am using windows login thingy.
When i write my connection string in the program now it doesnt work
string connectionStr =@"Server=IMRANNetSDK;" + "Integrated Security=SSPI;" + "Connection Timeout=7;" + "Database=testDB;";
If i replace my Database clause to Northwind it works absolutely fine.
The ERROR it gives is:
Cannot open database requested in login 'testDB'. Login fails. Login failed for user 'IMRANASPNET'.
Why is this happenning? :(.
============================================
2.
-------------------------
How can i configure the MSDE to use the SQL Authentication.
It doesnt allow me to do that?
Thanx Heaps,
Imran
hi friends,
I'll be thankful if anyone solve this problem.
When i developed my application, i used sql 2000 as a server side DB.
Now my client want to install MSDE instead of SQL 2000.
so i uninstall SQL2000 and installed MSDE .
AS we all know, MSDE doesn't have GUI. So i installed Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express - Community Technology Preview (CTP)
(includeing xmlparser,windows installer,.net 2.0).
now i could able to view tables and everything. but i couldn't make the connection. Getting error like "SQL server not found. CMPNAMEMSDERELA"
I used same kind of connection string for SQL 2000. Worked well.here what happened?
Connection String : "Data Source = CMPNAMEMSDERELA;Database =TEST; User id ="xxx; Password =xxxx;"
OS: Windows server 2003.
i used VB.NET to develop the apps. (VS2003). Connecting from Pocket PC.
kindly help me to solve this problem.
(Already i posted this in SQL tools forum. i hope this is the right place to post this question. so posting again.)
Thank u!
For a SQL Server 2000 connection string I usualy use the following format:
server=somewhere.com;uid=sa;password=sa;database=myDB
or:
server=66.33.11.123;uid=sa;password=sa;database=myDB
However, now I am dealing with a remote MSDE database. What is the format to connect to a remote MSDE database? Is it:
server=<IPADDRESS><INSTANCENAME>;uid=sa;password=sa;database=myDB
Where <IPADDRESS> is the Ip address of the remote machine and <INSTANCENAME> is the MSDE instance name. Is this correct? If not, what am I doing wrong?
The connection string I'm currently using for SQL Server is Provider=SQLOLEDB;Server=SERVERVSDOTNET;Database= CCDDbase;Integrated Security=SSPI
would this be the same query string for MSDE database? I'm quite new in MSDE but I know that except for the tools that comes with SQL Server and its size, they are practically the same...
Hi all,
I installed a MSDE on a Windows XP SP2 and configured it for accepting remote connections. But It shows the "SQL Server doesnot exist or connection denied" message whenever I try to connect to this server. For more information I am adding more facts
* It is an MSDE and not a WMSDE
* Firewall is turned off
* Server process is listening on 0.0.0.0:1433
* TCP/IP and Named Pipes are enabled using server network utility
* LoginMode=2 is set for mixed mode authentication in the registry
* Tried restaring the Process and even windows after the changes.
Please help me !!
Thanks in advance

I have just done an in-place upgrade from MSDE to SQL Express with Advance Services for my customer. After upgrading, the program was not enable to connect to SQL Express and threw an error (the program connect to the server through OLEDB provider)
Code -2147217843 (80040e4d) - IDispatch error #3149 - Source : Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server
It only works if I replace the string "Provider=SQLOLEDB.1" with "Provider=SQLNCLI.1". I wonder why I have to do that because in my working PC and other customers, I don't get this.
The customer's PC use Windows 2003 Server for Small Business Server SP1
Thanks in advance

I have Installed MSDE SP3a (sql2kdesksp3.exe) on a Windows 2003 Web Edition Server.
The security mode is win/sql. I can log in with both Win NT and SQL security localy, from both EM and MSDE manager.
(in the end of the installation, no dialog show, and the agent does not start automaticly, started on restart)
The MSDE is installed from cmd, with no SAPWD but SecurityMode=SQL.
But from another client on the network (same domain), I can´t connect. I get the "SQL Server Does Not Exist or Access Denied" Error Message
I have check the regestry for the tcpip port settings. And its not 0.
I have read some other MSDE related threads, but no luck.
Any hints what to check new, to try to solve this problem ?
peace.
Hi All
I installed the following in order:
1. .NET Framework Version 1.1 Redistributable
2. .NET Framework Version 1.1 Software Development Kit (SDK)
3. MSDE 2000 Rel A
In the command window I changed to the directory where MSDE 2000 Rel A was installed and typed in this:
setup.exe INSTANCENAME=MyDb DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=1 SAPWD=<My SA PASSWORD>
MSDE installed successfully and the little icon appeared in the system tray, next to the clock. However, there was no little green arrow/triangle showing on the icon to show connection status as Connected.
4. ASP.NET Commerce Starter Kit
During the Starter Kit install a Connect to Database window opened - Connect to SQL or MSDE.
In the 'Server' field the following was automatically displayed:
STEVE-HOME/MyDb
Where STEVE-HOME is the name of my computer (changed from 'localhost') and MyDb is the instance name.
Thw 'Windows Authentication' radio button was selected by default. I left this unchanged, then clicked OK.
A window opened asking to test the connection. I clicked OK and the connection was successful.
(I didn't select the SQL Server authentication or enter a username, password or select a Database.)
The Starter Kit installed successfully and works fine. However, the SQL Server Service Manager icon states it is not connected when I mouse over it.
I opened the SQL Server Service Manager window and the Server and Services fields are blank.
Surely the Starter Kit wouldn't work if MSDE wasn't connected.
Can anyone advise on how to get the icon to show it is connected
Your help would be greatly appreciated.
Hi,I need some help. I am getting this error after I complete the asp.net register control and click on the continue button. It crashed when it tries to get it calls this Profile property((string)(this.GetPropertyValue("Address1")));When I look at the stack, it is coming from my ProfileWrapper class which adds user address, city, etc.. from a class which inherits fromSystem.Web.Profile.ProfileBase. From the stack, it is calling the System.Web.Profile and crashed when it tries to open a connection atSystem.Data.ProviderBase.DbConnectionPool.GetConnection(DbConnection owningObject). I already migrated all aspnet_user, aspnet_roles, etc.. and don't get any connection errors. It is only when I try to get the profile data.

Hi,
I am working on SQL Server 2005 (x64) with Windows Server 2003 (x64) operating system. I am having a major issue in SSIS. Here is the detailed explanation of the issue :
I have an EXCEL file in 2003 / 2007 version. It contains some data. I want to import the data using SSIS into SQL Server 2005 (x64) database table. I have taken "EXCEL FILE SOURCE" and "SQL Server DESTINATION". It was failed on importing data. Surprisingly it works fine in SQL Server 2005 (x32). Can you please explain why it is NOT woking on (x64) ?
Here is the error code i am getting:
[Excel Source [1]] Error: The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "Excel Connection Manager" failed with error code 0xC0202009.
Appreciate your time and patience !!
Thanks
Hi All,
I am getting the following error if I am using the package "Transaction Option=Required" while running through Sql Job:
The AcquireConnection method call to the connection manager "<connection name>" failed with error code 0xC0202009.
while I running the SSIS package on BI environment, I am getting the following error:
[Connection manager "<connection name>"] Error: The SSIS Runtime has failed to enlist the OLE DB connection in a distributed transaction with error 0x8004D00A "Unable to enlist in the transaction.".
I know the alternative solution is to make the "Transaction Option=Supported", but in my case I have run the whole flow in a single transaction. I came to know that this has been fixed in the service pack1(ref. to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/914375). FYI.. some time it was running successful.
I have taken all the necessary step to run the SSIS package in a distributed transaction(like the steps for MSDTC) and also created the package flow in a sequence.
I was going through the link - http://forums.microsoft.com/MSDN/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=160340&SiteID=1 but all those didn't solve my problem.
If anyone can help me it will be great. or it is a bug in SSIS?
Thanks.

I am working in a distributed environment, I verified msgs have been successfully send from server1 db1 to server2 db2, but I still get the following error msg from the sender server through SQL profile:

Does anyone experienced the samething?
Thanks!
Hello, I have a sql 2005 server, and I am a developer, with the database on my own machine. It alwayws works for me but after some minutes the other developer cant work in the application
He got this error
Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection. [CLIENT: 192.168.1.140]
and When I see the log event after that error, it comes with another error.
SSPI handshake failed with error code 0x8009030c while establishing a connection with integrated security; the connection has been closed. [CLIENT: 192.168.1.140]
He has IIS5 and me too.
I created a user on the domain called ASPSYS with password, then in the IIS on anonymous authentication I put that user with that password, and it works, on both machines.
and in the connection string I have.
<add key="sqlconn" value="Data Source=ESTACION15;Initial Catalog=GescomDefinitiva;Integrated Security=SSPI; Trusted_Connection=true"/>
I go to the profiler, and I see that when he browses a page, the database is accesed with user ASPSYS, but when I browse a page, the database is accesed with user SElevalencia.
Thats strange.
The only way that the other developer can work again on the project is to restart the whole machine. He has windows xp profession, I have windows 2000.
If you want me to send logs please tellme

I am trying to upgrade my MSDE 2000 (SP3)to SP4, but it is giving an error of "invalid instance".
Here is what is on the machine (before running any commands):
I do not see any SQL Server installation on my machine under Start-All Programs. But, I have a directory for SQL Server under:
C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL
The sqlserver.exe is in C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQLBinn and version = 2000.80.760.0
To upgrade MSDE 2000 (SP3) to MSDE SP4, I downloaded this file from Microsoft's website: SQL2000.MSDE-KB884525-SP4-x86-ENU.EXE
I ran the above .exe and extracted the files on my hard drive. Now, I have the C:SQL2KSP4MSDE directory and the Setup.exe is in the MSDE directory.
I looked in the services and stopped the following service:
MSSQLSERVER
Now, I ran this command:
setup SAPWD="ourpassword" SECURITYMODE=SQL
/L*v C:MSDELog.log
This came with the error - Invalid Instance
I tried running:
setup /upgradesp sqlrun /L*v C:MSDELog.log
This command ran and did not show any error. I then rebooted the machine, checked that the MSSQLSERVER service is running and checked the version of sqlserver.exe but it was still the same (2000.80.760.0). It should have been 8.00.2039
I am not sure what am I missing. All I want to do is update the MSDE Service Pack on our company machines to SP4.
Please help !
We are thinking of deploying MSDE for a modest traffic Intranet. According to this http://www.microsoft.com/sql/msde/howtobuy/msdeuse.asp 25 concurrent users should be fine.
What exception would we get if the MSDE was not handling the traffic?
What would be the best way to track/log how close we are getting to the 25 user max.
Thanks
Simon
I am trying to install MSDE using settings I always have to install it:
setup sapwd=password instancename=vsdotnet disablenetworkprotocols=0 securitymode=sql
But it gets through the install, then the progress bar goes backwards and it uninstalled, I tried to enable logging and do /q+ but none of this gives usable information, i have redownloaded the MSDE SP3 install files and this has changed nothing, I know this is a common problem as I have seen a few sites mention it, but i can't seem to find the fix.
Having some trouble running the SP4 upgrade on a MSDE 2k named instance.Its working for one instance but give me error for the second instance.

- Windows XP Pro
- Non-null SA pw
- Executing setup.exe /UpgradeSP SQLRUN
The install runs for a bit and then disappears. Here's what the very

Please note that I am using BLANKSAPWD=1 because BUILTINAdministrators right is not present, the above syntax is working for one named instance but is failing in second named instance.:eek:
I'll post the full log if that helps. Any ideas?

The only google hit on Internal Error 2737 was a message archived here with no solution posted. I found that updating IE to 6.0 SP1 solved the Internal Error 2737, although I'm still not quite getting MSDE 2000 to run under Windows 98 First Edition. The Installer now installs without error, but the server manager doesn't turn the little SQL Server system tray icon green, the server doesn't seem to start up.
View 1 Replies View RelatedHello,
I'm not sure if it's the setup I did wrong, but I can't seem to get my
text datatype in my database to store more than 900 characters.
I'm trying to setup a news database for my website, which will populate
the information into a datagrid. To test, I manually added a news
item in the database through the visual studio 2003 gui. I
immediately noticed a problem as the I was getting an error after a
long news item saying:
"The value you entered is not consistent with the data type or length of the column, or over grid buffer limit."
I couldn't find anthing to set the buffer limit and the datatype is
"text" filled with simple text in the column. As a further test,
I
simply entered 12334567890123... up to 900 characters and still
recevied the error.
I would appreciate someone leading me in the right direction on this one.
Thanks a lot.
I'm trying to attach a MSDE 2000 database to SQL Server 2005 Express.
I simply issue sp_detach_db XXX where XXX is the name of my MSDE database. Then sp_attach_db or create database ... with attach and both way gets the following message:
Event ID. : 3415
Description: Database 'XXX' cannot be upgraded because it is
read-only or has read-only files. Make the database or files writeable, and
rerun recovery.
What does it mean?
Thanks for any help,
Peter
I am trying to restore a database backed up using SQL Server 2005 Express Edition to a server using MSDE. I get an error 3205 "Too many backup devices specified...64 max..."
I'm only specifying one file for the restore.
Ideas?
I am trying to change the computer name of a machine running MSDE but I get an error when SQL Server starts. With regular SQL when I change the name of a computer I re-run setup and setup fixes this problem. MSDE can only be installed from unattended mode so I can’t rerun setup and fix the problem.
My question is "How do I change the name of a computer running MSDE with out reinstalling MSDE"
