View 1 RepliesG'day,
I'm very new to ASP.NET (but not to programming) and I'm having some trouble with connecting to a database.
I am using C#.NET and I dragged the SqlConnection component onto the form, set the connection string to (local) and to use integrated security, and on that data link properties page I can press the test connection and it works fine, and I can see the databases in "select database on server" drop down box... but when I try and Open() the connection I get a
Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Login failed for user 'AMD2500ASPNET'.
Can anyone help me?
Thanks,
Robbo
I am trying to connect to a MSDE database on server from my desktop using query analyzer. I keep getting the generic "SQL Server does not exist or access denied'
I have verified the following:
- the login/password is valid because when I access osql from server I can gain access
- the registry for Loginmode appears OK - set to 2 - mixed mode
What else do I need to check...
Thanks, kgaske
Being new to the SQL server world I have a beginner question.How do I grant access to database from a networked computer?I have tried:sp_grantlogin '\computernameusername'and I get the error:Windows NT or user <above> not found. Please check name.Any help would be appreciated.ThanksEric
View 1 Replies View RelatedPlease advise: I have created a simple ASPX page to test if I can connect to MSDE on a Server 2003 system. The connection string that works ok is:
server=WS1;database=northwind;integrated security=false;user id=sa;password=xxx;
but the string that does not work is:
server=WS1;database=northwind;integrated security=SSPI;
which is the string I would like to use for normal web access. This string works fine on my development system (where I use XP Pro and IIS 5.1)
In IIS6 on the "production server" the directory security on the virtual dir is set to allow anonymous access, using user IUSR_WS1 (where WS1 is the name of the system) and to integrated security.
Please help! Thank you

Hi there, i've installed MSDE and have successfully connected to it from a remote version of Enterprise Manager but when i try to connect using ADO.NET from a website using the same login details i get the following message:"SQL Server does not exist or access denied"I installed msde with DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=0 and SECURITYMODE=SQL so everything should be setup properly. My connection string looks like this:server=ip_addressinstance_name;uid=myusername;pwd=mypassword;database=mydatabaseThis connection string works fine when testing locally (without ip address ie. localhostinstance_name)Any ideas why this doesn't work??
View 2 Replies View RelatedHey guys, I am a newbie here, so please bear with me. I have installed SQL Server 2005 CTP on Machine A and MSDE on Machine B. Both these contain the PUBS database beside others. On Machine C, I have installed "ASP.Net Web Matrix" and I want to be able to connect to either Machine A or B to access the PUBS database. It connects to Machine B, when I put in the Servers IP address. But everytime I try to connect to Machine A, it gives me an error saying, "Unable to connect to the database. To connect to this server you must use SQL Server Management Studio or SQL Server Management objects(SMO) ". I heard that connection strings are needed to access the SQL Server 2005 but I have no idea where to begin. Do I need to create special users to access the Server or will Windows authentication work ? Could anyone help me out in connecting to the SQL Server 2005 CTP?

Hello,
I have downloaded WebMatrix/NET.Framework and it works well.
Unfortunatelly I have problem with connecting to MSDE.
I've installed the new version (sql2ksp3a) like they say:
setup.exe INSTANCENAME=my_inst_name DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=0 SAPWD=my_pass
SECURITYMODE=SQL
The MSDE works ok (I can connect from a commercial programs - for example
'MSDE Manager') and seems to be ok.
But when I try to connect from Web Matrix I get the error:
"Unable to connect to database, Invalid connection connection Open, Invalid
instancename".
I put all the parameters correct:
user: sa, auth.type: SQL, server: my_pc_namemy_instance_name
By the way the instance name and my PC name is the same. Could it be the
reason ?
Please help,
greetings to all
Hi,Does anyone know how I can connect to an MSDE db using VB with aread-only file? The file will be on a CD, and is actually just archiveddata off a SQL server. I would like to package my app on a CD alongwith the data file and allow users to pop in the CD and run the app,assuming they already have MSDE running. Any help?Thanks,Jason

Hi!
I have installed MSDE 2000 in "Mixed Windows and SQL mode authentication with network access" .following is the command:
setup.exe DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS=0 SAPWD="password" INSTANCENAME="TempInstance" SECURITYMODE=SQL
Then I created the database TempDB in it.
When I try to connect this database from my program running on my machine , it works fine. But when i try to connect to it from the same program running on a different machine on the same domain.It gives error:
"SQL Server does not exist or access denied ."
Even when i run the same program in my machine to access the same TempDB database on a remote machine that is not in my domain, it works fine.
this is my connection string:
Data Source={Database server's IP Address}TempInstance;Initial Catalog=TempDB;User ID=sa;PWD=password;
Please help.

Hi,
I'm trying to connect to an instance of MSDE 2000 from Visual Studio 2005 over a home network. Although I know how to connect to a database from Visual Studio, I'm pretty clueless about configuring Sql Server to allow the connection (I can connect with no problem when I do so from the same computer). Also, with experimenting I've created a bunch of instances of Sql Server that I don't really need and am not sure how to get rid of them. Thanks in advance for any help.

I don't know if this will help, but I've already tried enabling all of the network protocols in the instance. Also, I can easily connect to an Access database over the network.
Hello,
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 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"
We currently have the problem, that all our machines are produced with the
same name and afterwards the name is changed. So we have the problem that
the checksum key for the MSDE isn't valid anymore. As MSDE can only be installed
from unattended mode so I can’t rerun setup and fix the problem. Does anyone
know a solution for this problem ?? A program recalculating the cheksum ??
regards,
Manfred
I'm not sure if this is the correct forum for this this question but I'll give it a shot.
The only db development that I have ever done is in MS Access. I have a project at work that is being accomplished in VB and I need a db engine to use as the back end. Visual studio came with a copy of MSDE. Is this tool worth using or should I invest in mySQL? Are there any advantages to using MSDE over mySQL?
I looking for some guidance here. I have database which has exceeded the 2 gig limit. I deleted some old tables in an attempt to acquire some space. This worked out. However when I look at the size of my *.mdf it still appears in excess of the 2 gigs . I know this isn't true since I deleted 500 megs of stuff. How do i reclaim the space (get the file size to report correctly) or do I need to even worry about it.

Hi
For quite some time nowI have been trying to give user rights to my MSDE , needless to say the fruits of my labor have turned up very little success.
So far i have tried using the osql commands to grant user access to my database. I have run the stored procedures(sp_grantlogin ,sp_grantdbaccess ) but to little avail!
So now i have taken a new approach i installed the Enterprise Manager. I have just a minor problem with this new strategy , i don't know how to use it!!
This is what i have prensently installed on my system: Visual studio.Net ,Microsoft SQL(MSDE)
and finally the Enterprise Manager.
My Servername is FRANK.
I have created an instance which is NetSDK (FRANKNETSDK)
My SAPWD is Kildare
I have Mixed Mode
Can anyone please tell me how i can use the Enterprise Manager to grant access to MSDE.
I am sure you have all realized from all these insipid post that i have no experience.
So please be explicit in all your details.
My email roti@videotron.ca
Thank you

Having Problem connecting to Database with WebMatrix
When I try to ADD Database in WebMatrix through Sql Connection & enter USERNAME & PASSWORD it fails. Is there a way to create New USERNAME & PASSWORD? Perhaps through

Any Help/Advice TIA

I have never done anything with databases, so I am a newbie. My goal is to install an ASP.NET forum, but I need MSDE installed. I downloaded MSDE from the Microsoft website. When I run the setup.exe file, I get an error. It says:
A strong SA password is required for security reasons. Please use SAPWD switch to supply
same. Refer to readme for more details. Setup will now exit.
I looked at the documentation but could not find anything usefull, what do I have to do to install it. Thanks in advance for responses.
How does MSDE handle data mangement? Does it come with sql analyser or some sort of database manager?
Thanks.
Hi,
I am newbie in ASP.NET and MSDE arena. I understand that MSDE has no GUI and I need to have MSDE tools to work with it. I have already installed ASP.NET 1.1 and Microsoft.NET SDK 1.1 and MSDE in my Windown Professional 2000 PC and I have run and tested for .aspx and its working perfectly. But I want to use MSDE to create some database driven web applications.
Could you please help me how I can do that? BTW, I installed Microsoft SQL Web Data Administrator and its giving me SQLWebAdminStart.exe Application error and asking for debugging while opening the program. I am stranded what to do now?
I really appreciate your help.

I just installed MSDE off of disk that came with teach yourself asp.net in 24 hours. To get the program started you must go to run and type cmd and wait for the C prompt. I get this far, but I can't get a C prompt. It always comes up C:sql2ksp3> How do I get a C prompt from here. I know it must be something easy that I am just overlooking or forgot.
Thanks

Hi all,
I have a web application that uses SQL Server. I have 6 clients that all use the same SQL Server database structure.
I know have a new client who is using MSDE as there Database. The Database should have the same table structures as the SQL ones.
So my questions are this:
1. I have a backup of the new clients data. How do I attach it to SQL Server?
2. Does MSDE have stored procedures?
3. Can I write stored procedures in a SQL Database, that reference tables in an MSDE database.
4. Can someone point me in a direction, that can walk me through this?
Thanks
Scott
Hi,
Well i want to ask, Is this true that
We can use the MSDE on commercial basis for a limited usagage with out paying.
The limited usage means that may be upto 20 - 25 concurent users can be use the Engine at a time.
thx for the comments
I installed MSDE 2000 in my system. There is no icon & gui screen. How can i create/alter database using MSDE without using any programming language? from where can i get stored data in msde? How can i take backup for this data?
View 2 Replies View RelatedHello,
Is it possible that i have my webapplication on a webserver and my database on another server?The database is MSDE.Thanks for your respond
I want to connect to the MSDE database and create database and tables etc.., I am successful in creating the database and tabels etc.., as shown below:
string ConnString;
ConnString = "data source=(local);" +
"database=;integrated security=sspi";
SqlConnection SqlConn = new SqlConnection(ConnString);SqlConn.Open();
SqlCommand SqlCmd = new SqlCommand("Create DATABASE dbase1", SqlConn);SqlCmd.ExecuteNonQuery();SqlConn.Close();
but Instead of connecting to the MSDE without giving any database name,canI create the instance of MSDE on the fly and connect to it. Like creating a MSDE OBject to start the MSDE and then connect to it using Windows NT authentication
How do you deal with MSDE on a W98 machine since it can not run as a service?
View 1 Replies View RelatedHi,
I have developed a site for a client using asp and sql server, and now want to roll this out to the client using MSDE, since the only application using the database will be the website, so they really don't need full sql server.
I've seen plenty of articles telling me how this is possible, but I can't find anything telling me how to start.
The webserver will be on the client site, and controlled by myself as this is an intranet application.
Do I install MSDE on the client site from my Microsoft CD's or do I install particular files, and that's just for starters.If anyone has done something similar I would really appreciate their advice.
