Hi All,
I have been trawling the net to find a decent example of a way to connect to an sql 2000 server using asp.net and run a few commands.
One of the commands i need to run is: "EXEC sp_addlogin 'Albert', 'B1r12-36', 'forum2'"
Please, please, please could someone show me how to do this, and display a 'successful' message on the page if the command completed successfully...i will be eternally greatful.
My site works fine in VWD2008 express, but I get this error when I try to use it on my live website.
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.
According to this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/914277 I am supposed to:
1.
Click Start, point to Programs, point to Microsoft SQL Server 2005, point to Configuration Tools, and then click SQL Server Surface Area Configuration.
Ok, there is no such program in this folder. The only thing in there is "SQL Server Error and Usage Reporting"...
The other thing I am greatly concerned with is this: All is want is for my webpages to be able to access my database for user authentication. I DO NOT want to grant the internet rights to remote connect to my database.
I get the following error and have been trying to figure out why I keep getting it. Initially, I had placed my project under wwwroot folder and ran it under IIS and it gave this error. Then I moved it to my local C drive and same thing. I am sharing this project with two other co-workers and all our config files and code files are same...they don't get this error but I do. I checked that SQL Server Client Network Utility has TCP/IP and the 'Named Pipes' enabled. I thought maybe I have setting in the Visual Studio 2005 that I'm not aware of that's causing this problem...it can't be the server since my co-workers aren't having this error and can't be anything in the code since all of us are sharing this project through vss. I dont' think using different version of .net framework can create this error. I changed the version from 2.0 to use 1.1x and it gave same error... Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Not: I try to run SQL Server 2005 but I can not, even I logged on to my computer with an administrator rights. On the other hand I can start and stop the SQL Server Express easily.
As a result, how can I solve this problem.
Thanks in advance.

I'm about to go absolutely nuts. I've tried so many things including:
1) Of course making sure Remote connections and both TCP/IP and named pipes are enabled for SQL 2005
2) Verified my connection string works. I even tested it in Enterprise Library using the tool and it connects successfully via windows authentication
3) Made sure of course my logged in user is a member of the administrator group and that my user in SQL 2005 logins has db_owner and full rights to the DB I am connecting to. I also made sure the NT AUTHORITY as well as the 3 sql service users have db_owner rights as well as the adminstrator in the SQL Server logins all have db_owner to the DB
4) Started the SQL Server Browser service, SQL Server DB engine, and SQL Server Agent
5) Made sure my site is setup right in IIS 7. I checked the connection string in there as well as it shows up in IIS7 in one of the sections. Using Windows authentication and it is enabled for my site
6) Tried running the .net site using both localhost (IIS) and also tried using the Visual Studio built-in web server. Both give this message still

Hi All,
After I installed sql server 2005 64bit standard edition on Windows Server Enterprise 2008 64bit, I cannot connect to the sql instance using the sql management studio on the same machine!
I verified that:
service is running,
in surface area configuration: remote connections to local and remote are enabled, for TCP/IP and named pipes.
ran the command netstat -avn| findstr 49279 to make sure that the server is listening.
firewall is off, but this does not matter since I'm connecting locally to local instance
I'm using domain controller account to login to sql server / also tried the sa account.
what else can be wrong?
thanks.
Hi,
I need to connect to a SQL server thats running in say abc.trident.com and also sits in a shared environment..
I have couple of questions
1) That SQL server is accessible from my network, yet when I swtich on my enterprise manager I am unable to view that in the list of running SQL servers in the populated list.
Is it because its sitting in a shared environment I am unable to view that?
2) What is the connection striing I should use to connect to the server..When I try to configure a SQL server registrations it normally asks for SQL Server name along with the user authentication
Should I mention fill the Server: field as
abc.trident.com
or
// abc.trident.com/abc.trident.com
to connect to the clustered server.
Can some one tell me the proper connection string if both aforementioned ones are incorrect?
Thanks in Advance
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.

I had asked a question last week and I realized that I had phrased it in a misleading way. Within a lab environment at my company, we are experimenting w/ accessing remote SQL data files stored separately on another machine from the SQL server itself (whether it be another client or server).
The experiment is this: You have one client machine accessing a SQL server via Enterprise Manager. The datafiles that you are trying to access are stored on another machine that does not have SQL Server installed. This remote machine only has the datafiles.
Can one map a static path via UNC from the SQL server to the datafiles on the remote machine and then access these datafiles (as long as the user's account has the appropriate permissions to the remote machine)? To my understanding, within SQL server you can only access datafiles that are stored locally on the SQL server itself.
The other thing that I was wondering was if the type of user account had some significance in this situation. More than likely, a local user account would not be able to access the remote machine w/ the datafiles even if the SQL server could map an UNC path and retain it. A domainuser account might be able to do this though.
Any help that you could provide would be appreciated.
Hi Everyone,
I am running into a problem and have been browsing the web and reading nonstop for answers with no success. My company just installed SQL Server 2005 and I am trying to connect to it via SQL Server Management Studio from my network computer in the same office building.
When I browse for Local or Network Servers in the initial popup box at SQL Management Studio Startup, it doesn't show any servers at all. Is there something I need to enable on the Server using the Configuration Manager or one of the other tools to allow my network computer to "see" the SQL Server?
Any insight would be MUCH appreciated. Even a link to a how-to would suffice. Thank you.

I have installed Server 2005 Express on a pc running Windows Server 2000 sp4 which I want to use as the server for a network of pcs. However, I am unable to login to SQL Express on this machine from Sql Server Management Studio Express. I am in mixed mode and trying to connect with Server Authentication. I get various error messages none of which seem to point to the problem.
Networked to this pc are several other machines running Xp Professional/Home sp2 and if I install SQL Express on one of these I can log in to SQL Express on that machine without any problem. I can also connect to it via the network from the Win Server 2k machine.
Does anyone know of any issues when installing Server 2005 Express on a pc running Windows Server 2000 sp4.
Any help would be appreciated.

I've run into a problem after upgrading production servers running under Microsoft Cluster Server, Windows Enterprise Server 2003 SP1, and SQL Server 2005 SP1 Enterprise Edition.
Once I completed the upgrade and applied the patch, I needed to examine the values set in the Features component of the Surface Area Configuration tool. The tool attempts to connect to localhostinstancename, but reports the following error:
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)(Microsoft SQL Server)
I'm logged into the virtual server via Remote Desktop, but the SAC tool thinks I'm logged into the physical server supporting the virtual server. I seem to be caught between a rock and a hard place here, as I can't enable remote connections without first gaining access on the server itself.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
Hi, i am trying to get to my hosting companies database server. Its SQL Sever 2000, but i want to connect through SQL Server Management Studio 2005.

It failed and i called again to check back, and one of the guy told me that u cannot connect to an instance of sql servr 2000 from sql server 2005. Is this true? Please help.

I want to populate data in SQL server database (SQL server 2008 R2) from SSAS cube located on different server (SQL server 2012). My SQL database present on Server A and cube on Server B.
To implement I am trying to create linked server. But its giving errors related to provider and product.
Here is the information that I have... ( ps all information is not the actuall information )
1) URL abc.somehostingcompany.com IP: 211.11.111.1 PORT: 1433 ( NOTE: if I go to a cmd promt and type in ping abc.somehostingcompany.com I get a response )
2) dbname = mydatabase
3) userUid = sa pwd = sa
Inside SQL Server Configuration Manager --> SQL Server Network Configuration --> Protocols for SQLEXPRESS, I enabled TCP/IP and Shared Memory. Inside the properties of TCP / IP, I made sure under the "IP Address" tab that the
IP1: Active = yes
IP1: Enabled = yes
IP1: IP Address = abc.somehostingcompany.com
IP1: TCP Dynamic Ports = 0
IP1: TCP Port = < empty string >
I clicked "OK", and I stopped and started the SQL Server 2005 Services --> SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS). Then I started up SQL Server Brower.
Lastly I go to SQL Server Management Studio Express and try to connect to this remote server and database and I keep getting timeout issues and a message saying that the default settings for SQL Server Express do not allow remote connectioning by default.
Any ideas what I could be doing wrong? Should I use the port number instead of Dynamic Ports? Should I use the real IP address? Does the LOG ON AS under SQL Server (SQLEXPRESS) properties need to be updated?
Any help would be great.

The owner_id field references another table (owner). Therefore i run the inner query to get the owner_id based on the selected name in the dropDownlist, then let the outer query pull out all tasks which match the result from the inner query.
my code at the moment is Dim ds As New DataSet
Dim myconnection As SqlConnection 'create a connection
'create connection to DB
myconnection.ConnectionString = "server=localhost;database=taskDB"
'create the sql commandDim objcmd As New SqlCommand("SELECT name, description, data_added, priority_id FROM task WHERE (owner_id = (SELECT owner_id FROM owner WHERE (owner_id = @owner_id)))", myconnection)
objcmd.Connection.Open()
'open the connection to DB
Dim objreader As SqlDataReader = objcmd.ExecuteReader Dim da As New SqlDataAdapter
da.SelectCommand = objcmd
'fails here sql not allowing remote connection
da.Fill(ds)Me.GridView1.DataSource = da
Me.GridView1.DataBind()
'close the connection to the DB
objcmd.Connection.Close()
The application fails when you select a name from the drop down box.
fails at - myconnection.ConnectionString = "server=localhost;database=taskDB" Error is "Object reference not set to an instance of an object." If i comment out this line, i get the same error but at it stopps at the objcmd.connection.open(). Strange.
Can anyone tell me what i am doing wrong? Have i setup the connection to the DB ok?
Thanks

View 3 Replies View RelatedHi all,
I am used to connecting to my database using a querystring and a connection like this:
string connectionString = "server='myserver'; user id='myuser'; password='mypw;database='mydb'";
System.Data.IDbConnection dbConnection = new System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection(connectionString);
I write in C# and don't know how to connect to a database using a DSN. I have this VB code that's supposed to connect with DSN:
<%
set conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
conn.open"DSN=MyDSN;UID=user;PWD=password;DATABASE=databasename"
%>
But I need it in C#...
I tried using a query string like this one
string connectionString="DSN=mydsn;UID=myuser;PWD=mypw;DATABASE=mydb";
and got this error :Unknown connection option in connection string: dsn. :
Any help would be greatly appreciated.... thanks
I installed MSDE today using the setup.exe file, so the syntax was
setup SAPWD=mypassword securitymode=SQL
it worked, I reboot and I see the SQL Server running...
I opened my web matrix, went into the data section and tried to make a new connection to then create databases etc, and it bombs...
I click on SQL Authentication
username sa
password mypassword
and I tried to create a new database
it says either SQL doesn't exsist, or access denied...
any idea's what I did wrong?
Thanks

Any help????
I am a newbie to this...I am trying to right a connection string to a SQL Server DB. I do not have the full blown SQL Server, but just the SQL desktop engine. I put together the following in Web Matrix and it works without a problem. However, when I copy this over into Visual Studio.net I get an error at the "myConnection.Open()" command. Any ideas why it would work in Web Matrix but not in Visual Studio. When I test the connection to the SQL DB in Studio it says that the test completed succesfully so I don't think I am having a problem actually connecting, so I am not sure what the problem is.
