Problems With Linked Servers Between Sql 2000 And Sql 2005
Jun 3, 2007
Dear all
I have created linked server object between a sql 2000 and sql 2005 database. i have the latest mdacs installed and all the services enabled on both sides.
But when i try and run a sql statement on the sql 2000 side i get this error:
[DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (PreLoginHandshake()).]General network error. Check your network documentation.
If i try and run a sql statment on the sql server 2005 side the procedure works.
Has anyone experienced the same problem?Any advice?
Thank you so much for the help.

We have two sql servers using Windows authentication. One is sql 2000 the other sql 2005. When logged in as "sa", I can link these servers and run a SELECT distributed query without any problem.
But when one of our developers runs the same query (he is "dbo" of each database on each of the servers) he gets the error:
"OLE DB Provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server <Servername> returned message "Communication Link Failure"
...
Login failed for user '(null'). reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection"
Despite that, I, as "sa" equivalent, have no problem so it appears to be a permisisons issue. Any ideas what is going on here?
TIA,
Barkingdog

I'm working with SQL Server 2000 installed in Windows 2000. When i tried to add the 'servername' as a linked server , i got the following message:
" Error: 15038. The Server 'servername' already exists."
When i execute "sp_linkedservers" , i could see the name "servername" in the list. But before doing this i had Restored the "MSDB" database on this server. Should i use "sp_droplinkedservers" and add them again.
Any comments are most welcome.
Thanks, Santha.

I am in the middle of a major migraton project, moving from x86 SQL 2000 to IA64 SQL 2005. I have a business need to link to several legacy servers. I have a number of problems I am trying to solve.
1) Linking a Kerberos server to a non-Kerberos server.
2) Linking x64 or IA64 servers to x86 servers.
3) Linking SQL 2005 to SQL 2000.
Two of the errors I am encountering are:
------------------------------
TCP Provider: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.
Login failed for user '(null)'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "SCDC250DB" returned message "Communication link failure".
(Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 10054)
------------------------------
And
------------------------------
The OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for the linked server "SCDC250DB" reported an error. Authentication failed.
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "SCDC250DB".
OLE DB provider "SQLCLI" for linked server "SCDC250DB" returned message "Invalid authorization specification".
(Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 7399)
If someone has worked through these problems before, I would appreciate it if you could direct me to the relevant documentation to resolve these issues.
Thanks!

Hi,
I have:
- SQL 2005 Dev on machine A
- SQL 2005 Dev on machine B
I've made a linked server from A to B using:
- Windows authentication
- SQL Server authentication
However, I ran into the following "problems":
- When creating a linked server from A to B, when I do a "new linked server" I have to give it the same name as machine B.
- Therefore, I can only make one linked server to B (not f.ex. make two, one Windows authentication and one SQL Server authentication).
Is it only possable to make one linked server to a machine running SQL Server 2005?
Thank you.

I am having trouble finding any documentation on how linked servers are set-up under SQL 2005 for log-shipping and replication. Under SQL 2000, the only linked servers "visible" were ones that were user-defined. Under SQL 2005, it seems when you set-up log-shipping or replication, you get these new linked servers which are automatically defined. I would like to understand them and in particular, how security is maintained. We recently had a production issue where after some problem with a server which resulted in having to restart SQL Server, and shrink msdb, log-shipping started to fail authentication when trying to run alert jobs. Only after rebooting the server, and also the log-ship target server, and waiting 9 hours, did the authentication correct itself. I would like to know how it resolved itself and what took so long?

I have been trying to figure out for some time why Linked Servers do not continue to run. I start up my SQL Server Database service, and then using SQL Server Management Studio I create one or more linked servers to Microsoft Access Databases using the Jet Provider. I then run some queries to that access those linked servers without any problems. (One currently is called 'THE')
After some time has passed, possibly minutes, hours or days, I can no longer access any of the linked servers. No data, queries, tables, or anything is accessible to me anymore. I use this command "EXEC sp_testlinkedserver N'THE' " to test the linked server and get the following error msg.
OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "THE" returned message "Unspecified error".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_testlinkedserver, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "THE".
The only solution I have to fix this currently is to restart the SQL Server Database service. I have tried deleting and recreating the Linked server before doing this to no avail. I have also used the FileMon and RegMon tools on the server to try to determine the problem but have no no success. After restarting the SQL service I can run the "EXEC sp_testlinkedserver N'THE' " command successfully "Command(s) completed successfully." and can access the linked servers again without any problems.
Any help with this is greatly appreciated.
Mark.
P.S. I have tried changing the security options on the linked server from "Be made without a context." to using the "Admin" username and leaving the password blank, to several other possible variations and options, as well as setting up the system.mdw database in the registry to no avail.

We have a linked server that is an Apartment model OLE DB Provider. It works fine on SQL 2005 SP1. After applying SP2, we get the following msg when running a query against the linked server. I cannot find anything in the SP2 doc that indicates a change of behavior for linked servers. Any ideas ?

Msg 7308, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
OLE DB provider 'DBAmp.DBAmp' cannot be used for distributed queries because the provider is configured to run in single-threaded apartment mode.

I managed to install Oracle 32 bit Client (was unsuccessful with 64 bit installation) and could set up the odbc (32). But I coul'nt find Oracle under linked servers!
Does anyone know what I need to do?

Just wondering before I do it, I am in the UK and studying for an mcdba which i require sql server 2000 on my laptop but I'm also doing the sql server 2005 exams aswell at the same time,
Now I know that you can have multiple instances on sql server on one machine but would I be able to have 2000 and 2005 running on the same machine or would it not be advisable
Thanks

3. Change database to 90 mode
4. Change database to check sum and auto stats sync
5. Rebuild Indexes on databases
6. Jobs (i will manually move over)
Anything else i should run after the rebuilds

Hello,
I was wondering whether it is possible to query linked servers in SQL Server Management Studio Express 2005 if those servers linked to are SQL Server 2000 machines?
I have added some linked servers to express and queried them, however the login timeout is expiring. I thought it might be because of an incompatability.
Cheers,
Damien.

Hi Guys,
I am trying to Query text file into SQL Server 2005 using linked server.
In SQL Server 2000 here is what I have.
Linked server configured to use following parameters
Product Name : Customer_file
Provider Name: Customer_File ( System DSN)
Here is basic file
0000003700 0000XXXXXX XX14 61J 1154-06-249
0000008600 0000XXXX11 YY17 41F 1144-12-309
0000010700 00023232323233 XX48 9DY 1145-10-299
0000015700 00001212121212 OX1 5RW 1163-08-079
0000026600 00001233333 YY1 31S 1150-12-111
0000027600 00001212121 YY15 8HU 1176-04-0891
0000038700 0000H13344 B120 8RF 1157-05-211
Now when I EXECUTE following command.
select * from openquery (TEST, 'select f1,f2,f3,f4,f5 from t#txt');
I normally get formatted output in columns..
As soon as I setup the same Linked server in SQL Server 2005, and follow same process I get all data in one column with first line as header.
I am basically concerting old import process into new one..so trying to figure out what i am missing?
Anay help?
THanks

Hello,
I have been searching the archives for information on problems that occur with creating a linked server to SQL Server 2000 from SQL Server 2005 x64, but the problem I am having seems to be slightly different.
I was able to create the linked server from the 2005 server this way;
Exec sp_addlinkedserver
@Server = '2kServer',
@srvproduct = 'SQL Server'
I was able to add the login this way;
Exec sp_addlinkedsrvlogin
@rmtsrvname = '2kServer',
@useself='False',
@locallogin='domaincdun2',
@rmtuser='domaincdun2',
@rmtpassword='pswd'
I receive 'Command(s) completed successfully' for both. When I attempt to run either of the following queries from a connection to the 2005 server in Management Studio;
select top 100 * from 2kServer.database.dbo.table
select * from Openquery(2kServer,'select top 10 * from database.dbo.table')
I get the following error
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "2kServer" returned message "Communication link failure".
Msg 10054, Level 16, State 1, Line 0
TCP Provider: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.
Msg 18456, Level 14, State 1, Line 0
Login failed for user 'domaincdun2'.
I've seen a couple of ideas on this. One states the following;
***************************************
When running 4 part reference query like this:
select * from sql2000.mybase.dbo.mytable
SQL Server 2005 x64 runs the following query on remote SQL2000 server:
exec [mybase]..sp_tables_info_rowset_64 N'mytable', N'dbo', NULL
Unfortunately there is no such a proc on SQL2k. However, sp_tables_info_rowset exists and does the same thing. The solution is to create wrapper on master database like this:
create procedure sp_tables_info_rowset_64
@table_name sysname,
@table_schema sysname = null,
@table_type nvarchar(255) = null
as
declare @Result int set @Result = 0
exec @Result = sp_tables_info_rowset @table_name, @table_schema, @table_type
And then everything works fine. If you don't want to create "Microsoft like" objects on master database, use openquery instead of 4 part reference.
**************************************
I put this proc on the 2kServer and tried again, but I got the same error. I've also seen this:
I went into the Sql Server Configuration Manager, Sql Native Client
Configuration -> Protocols and disabled Shared Memory and made the TCP/IP
protocol #1 in order. Then just restarted the Sql Service and it all started
working!
I don't have access to the server to do this, but I wonder if it would solve the problem. I am a sys admin on both servers. The servers are in two different domains. Could this be a firewall issue?
Thank you for your help!

Can anyone tell me if there's a recommended way to link from a SQL 2000 SP4 DB through a firewall to SQL 2005? I have tried with SQLOLEDB but this uses NETBios which is not secure. Or is there a way to tell it not to use NETBios?
SET @provdetail = 'DRIVER={SQL SERVER};SERVER=<IP address>;Trusted_connection=Yes'
EXEC Master..sp_addlinkedserver
@server = ,'<IP address>',
@srvproduct = '',
@provider = 'SQLOLEDB',
@provstr = @provdetail ,
@catalog = 'TestDB',
@datasrc ='<IP address>DB1'

Interesting issue.. I think
I have 2 linked servers on my dev 2005 instance (sp1-win 2003). My 2005 instance shares the physical server with a 2000 instance. This linked server works fine. The second linked server is on a separate server running sql 2000 sp3. I cannot connect to this server at all. I can connect the other way -- from the 2000 to the 2005. I have tried all kinds of combinations of security and options but nothing works. The only resolutions I have found referenced installing Management Studio on the 2000 server or creating an ODBC connection from the 2005 instance. Any ideas???
Here is the error I get:
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "ALLFLDB6" returned message "Login timeout expired".
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "ALLFLDB6" returned message "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.".
Msg 10061, Level 16, State 1, Line 0
TCP Provider: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.

I'm trying to connect to another slq server db through a linked server (and synonyms) but I get the following error.
Exception has been thrown by the target of an invocation. ---> System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: The current transaction cannot be committed and cannot support operations that write to the log file.

I've set up MSDTC and executed the procedures noted in MS's article ID 873160. I am using 2005, but the Burt server is 2000. I can run the stored procedure from my server, which queries theirs. But when I execute the sp from a service, I get the error. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I plan to migrate a SQL 2000 instance with everything in it to another SQL2000 server, and eventually in the future to SQL 2005.
I've pretty much figured out how to migrate everything execept the linked server configuration (there're many linked servers configured in the old server with different security credentials). I'm wondering if there's way I can save the linked server configuration and restore it to the other server.
Thanks much.

I have been unable to get my linked server to work when running queries against it in SQL Server 2005.
Example SQL Statement on my SQL 2005 server that I'm trying to run:
select top 100 * from [linkedservername].databsename.dbo.tablename
Error Message:
Msg 7416, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Access to the remote server is denied because no login-mapping exists.
Print screen of the security properties of my SQL 2005 Linked Server:

The user sqladmin definitely has the right permissions to the right databases on the target linked server.

I am trying to write some admin only procedures which will collect information to one of my development server from other production and development servers.
I have created linked servers to access these other servers on the development server. This development server is SQL Server 2000 EE. Other servers which I want to access are 2000 and 2005 (vaious editions)
E.g I have another development server called PRODTEST which is SQL Server 2005 and on the development server I have created a linked server pointing to PRODTEST called TESTLINKSRV. I want to access new object catalog view (as I do not want to use sysobjects)
When I run the following query
SELECT * FROM [TESTLINKSRV].[DBNAME].[sys].[objects]
I get following error,
OLE DB error trace [Non-interface error: OLE DB provider does not contain the table: ProviderName=' TESTLINKSRV ', TableName='" DBNAME "."sys"."objects"'].
Msg 7314, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
OLE DB provider ' TESTLINKSRV ' does not contain table '"DBNAME"."sys"."objects"'. The table either does not exist or the current user does not have permissions on that table.
So I try this query
SELECT * FROM [TESTLINKSRV].[DBNAME].[sys.objects]
and I get following error
Msg 208, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Invalid object name TESTLINKSRV.DBNAME.sys.objects'.
So bottom line is how do I access catalog views on a 2005 server from a 2000 server using linked server?
I hope someone understands what I am trying to achieve. Please let me know what is it that I am doing wrong.
Thank you

Hi,
I'm using SQL Server 7.0 SP1.
I have a DTS package that requires me to link 2 servers
and query both in order to get my set of records that I
want to Transform. My query runs fine in QA. I copy and
paste it into the SQL Query window of the transformation.
I click Preview and all that happens is a quick flicker of
the DTS window. When I go to Transformations, there are
no source columns.
Here is a copy of my code that I'm trying to use:
-------------------------------------------------------
declare@start_dteas datetime,
@end_dteas datetime
SELECT@start_dte = date_data_range_start_dte,

whererun_type_cd = 'M')
SELECTRUN_ID

Is there an issue with Linked Servers and DTS?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
