Hi!
I created linked server to Oracle 8.0.5 on ODBC data source. When I run query like:
select * from linked_server_name..Schema_name.Table_name
it hangs up
I read in Books Online that the syntax is:
linked_server_name.catalog.schema.object_name
What is the _catalog_?
And also, is there a way to run PASS THROUGH QUERY against linked server, but not using OPENQUERY?
I'm sort of new at MS SQL Server - I'm trying to gather system table information from multiple servers about backups on our site and insert the rows the query returns into a table on one central server where I'm running the stored procedure from. I have the server names stored into a table but when I attempt to connect to servers, I get an error which tells me that I need to create a linked server by using sp_addlinkedserver stored procedure. People that I work with tell me they want to do this without creating linked servers - Is there a way to accomplish? When I run the query, it only retrieves data from the local server I'm running the stored procedure on, but like I mentioned, when I attempt to connect to other servers, I get the error message that it couldn't find the server name in "syservers" and that I need to run sp_addlinkedserver. This also happens if I run the same query in OSQL from Windows command line.
Any help on this would certainly be appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
Hi All - does anyone have a step by step guide as to what needs to be set up on the Server from the Oracle side, for Oracle linked servers to work ??
I keep getting the Eror 7399 ; OLEDB provider 'MSDAORA' reported an error.
Thanks,Jazz.
Running SQL2000 on Win2000 server. Installed Oracle8 client from Oracle for Winnt CD. This appeared to install OK could use SQL*PLUS to link to Oracle servers. Setting up a Linked server and then doing an openquery
gave an error:
' msadora reported an error
ole/db returned a message Oracle client & networking component were not found ..'
Any ideas? Should we have a Oracle for Win 2000 CD. It worked for SQL2000 on Winnt server.

Does anyone know where I can get some good examples of how to set up a linked
server to an Oracle data source in SQL 2000? I can't seem to get a link
set up to my Oracle database. In particular I am wondering how the communication works between OLEDB to the Oracle Instance and how to trouble shoot issues (for example, would is the Oracle Listener what OLEDB is talking to?) Thanks!!
Is there any step by step help sites for setting up SQL 2005 linked (oracle 10) server?
I find MSDN articles but they referance winNT and 2000, I'm not getting very far and I'm not a DBA but need to get this working asap.
Hi--
I am running SQL Server 2005 on Win2k3:

Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0.50727.42

I have the OraOLEDB.Oracle provider installed to the (C:oraclexe) directory.
I am having problems querying from linked oracle server. When i setup oracle as a linked server and purposely enter an incorrect password the query i run tells me i have an incorrect password. So it at least knows that. when i set the correct password and run a query I get this error:
(i replaced the real server name with "someServer".)
Msg 7399, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
The OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "SomeServer" reported an error. The provider did not give any information about the error.
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "OraOLEDB.Oracle" for linked server "SomeServer".
This is how I set up my Linked server:
Provider: "Oracle Provider for OLE DB"
Product Name: SomeServer
Data Source: SomeServer
Provider String: "Provider=OraOLEDB.Oracle;Data Source=SomeServer;User Id=MyLogin;Password=MyPassword"
The query I run is:
Select * from [Someserver].[schema or database]..[tbl_name]
Any help??? What am i missing?

I currently have a main SQL Server which had a column on the majority of the tables. This column also had a check contraint on it. I dropped the column and the constraint and I now get the following message when trying to query the tables through a linked server 'OLE DB provider 'SQLOLEDB' supplied inconsistent metadata. An extra column was supplied during execution that was not found at compile time.'.
Can anyone help
Hi All,
I have successfully linked a server and had SQL queries running
OK for a few weeks, but today I get the following message....
"OLE DB provider 'SQLOLEDB' supplied inconsistent metadata. An extra column was supplied during execution that was not found at compile time."
(Server: Msg 7353, Level 16, State 1, Line 1)
I've dropped the link and recreated it but I still get the same error
message. Can anyone help???

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,
@END_DTE = date_data_range_END_dte
FROMSIDDEV.SID_DEVELOPMENT.DBO.T901_RUN
WHERERUN_ID = (selectmax(run_id)
from
SIDDEV.SID_DEVELOPMENT.DBO.t901_run
whererun_type_cd = 'M')
SELECTRUN_ID
INTO#RUNS
FROMCRMDEV02.MDCORE.DBO.T901_RUN
WHEREDATE_DATA_RANGE_START_DTE >= @START_DTE
ANDDATE_DATA_RANGE_END_DTE <= @END_DTE
SELECTT70.*
FROM
CRMDEV02.MDCORE.DBO.T70_MD_UNIVERSE_RELATIONSHIP_M A
NGT AS T70 JOIN #RUNS
ONT70.RUN_ID = #RUNS.RUN_ID
DROP TABLE #RUNS
------------------------------------------------------
Is there an issue with Linked Servers and DTS?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,

Hi Gurus,
I am looking for literature to find out Pros and Cons of Using DTS Verses
Linked Servers in SQL 7.0.
My requirement can be done by either DTS or Linked servers. But I would like to know more about resorce utilisation of these tecniques before making a decission.
Can somebody suggest where to look for.

When I create linked server using integrated security and <they will be impersonated> option I get this:
Server: Msg 18456, Level 14, State 1, Line 1 Login failed for user ''
MS Technet says that SQL Server 7 doesn't allow double hops and to use mappings to standard security login to work around. @#%%~~@@#@#&^%@#
Impersonating to version 6.5 works fine.
Is there any way to link servers using ONLY integrated security?
Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks

Is it possible to add a 6.5 database as a linked server to a 7.0 database and query from it ?
View 6 Replies View RelatedHi.
I'm working with SQL Server 7.0 and I've been reading about the linked server option. My question is, if it's possible to link a server with a SQLBase database 7.01.
I have download some drivers to my computer, the odbc driver for sqlbase and the sqlbase ole db driver as well, but when I try to add a new linked server in the enterprise, in the provider name option I can not see any provider name addressing to Centura or Sql base driver.
Has anybody an idea how to make this connection then? or the right way for doing it??
Thanks for any help can be offered.
Regards, Elvia.

I have two 7.0 servers and I want to run a distributed query.
I did sp_addlinkedserver to link server B to server A
and I did sp_addlinkedsrvlogin for a specific login.
After adding login when I try to access a table on server B it
says login failed
All the logins are NT authenticated (in both the servers, So
both servers have same logins.)
but it is not working.
Hi all
I try to configure Linked Servers from the query analyze , and have some troubles.
My steps are :
1. from the enterprise mennenger , add 2 new servers : srv1 , srv2 (both SQL7)
2. from the query analyzer of srv1.master: "sp_addlinkedserver 'srv2'"
3. from the query analyzer of srv1.master:
"sp_addlinkedsrvlogin 'srv2',false,null,'sa','myPass'"
4. select * from srv2.pubs.srv2Table
5. I get the next error :"error 6 : Specified SQL srever not found."
What do I do wrong ?

We have 2 physically separate SQL servers 1 with old 1 with new.

I have two servers and they are linked servers. When I query a table on ON Box2 from Box1

What could be the reason.

Recently, I had Microsoft review why our SQL Db was unexpectedly terminating. They pointed to our Oracle Linked servers. They recommended that we try to uncheck the enable allow in process option on the ODBC driver. We are currently using the Microsoft OLE Db provider for our Oracle connnections as we were unable to get the Oracle ones to work with a linked server. When we unchecked this allow in process option near the end of the day our website began getting out memory errors from ODBC. It appeared to have been because of this change. Does anyone have any insight as to why changing this option could have caused this?

Hello (again!)
We have a new 2005 server, and I am trying to link our old 2000 server so I can use the old databases in new server.
This is what I done:
In 2005:
EXEC sp_addlinkedserver oldServer
--completed fine
then:
EXEC sp_addlinkedsrvlogin oldServer, 'false', NULL, 'Administrator', password
--completed fine
But whenI run the query I get the error:
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "oldServer" 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

Hi,
Disclaimer: I am not a DBA so my attempts may not make sense. :)
I have a win 2003 server running sql server 2005. I am trying to create a 'linked server' with an oracle 8i database at a remote site. I have tried using the 'add linked server' option from sql server enterprise manager and I have also tried to create it using the sp_addlinkedserver command. i tried using a dsn as the datasource and I have also tried using a dsnless connection using a TNS entry as the provider string. The Oracle client is on the box as can be confirmed both by the dropdown in the 'add linked server' dialog in sql server enterprise manager and also by going into the oracle enterprise manager and actually sending oracle data. I don't really have a preference on how to create the 'Linked server', I just need to get it to work.
AAA = server
BBB = DSN
XXX = UID
YYY = pwd
DSNLess Attempt:
EXEC master.dbo.sp_addlinkedserver @server = N'TEST1', @srvproduct=N'OraOLEDB.Oracle', @provider=N'OraOLEDB.Oracle', @provstr=N'SERVER=(DESCRIPTION=(ADDRESS_LIST=(ADDR ESS=(PROTOCOL=TCP)(HOST=AAA)(PORT=1556))) (CONNECT_DATA=(SERVICE_NAME=LPPCPEDB)));uid=XXX;pw d=YYY;'
