Registering A SQL Server Instance
Jun 24, 2005
Ok, well I just installed Visual Studio.NET 2003 on my PC, and to
prepare for next years courses I thought I might get going on some of
the exercises. But I am rather new to this and when I try to expand
"SQL Server" in the "Server Explorer Window" I get this message.
Could not automaticly discover any SQL Server instances.
Choose Register SQL Server instance from the shortcut menu if you know there are SQL Server instances on this machine.
From there all I know is that I can right click on "SQL Server" and
chose register new instance, but I do not know what to enter, and it
suggrests leaving it balck but that doesn't work. I will get an
instance but when I try to expand it another error pops up.
So as you can see I have no idea what I am doing when it comes to SQL Server, can any one help me with this?
Thanks again,
MCCCStudent

I cannot register, from my W98 workstation, an instance of SQL 2000. I just installed SQL2000 (evaluation edition) on my server. Previous to my install I had MSDE installed on the server and successfully registered it from my W98 workstation. When I installed the SQL2000 it recognized there was already a version of SQL Server (MSDE) on the server and said that was the default. Hense, I installed the SQL 2000 as an instance using the format servernameinstance. I can see both of them on the server EM with no problem--I just can't register the SQL 2000 instance from my workstation. When asked for the server name I use the format servernameinstance as it appears in the EM on the server. However, I get the error that the server does not exist or access is denied.? What could I be overlooking? Any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Eugene Jenkins

The box I am trying to connect to is running two instances of SQL Server.
There is a SQL Server 2005 instance which is the default. There is a SQL Server 2000 instance which is named 'SQLSERVER'.
I can connect to the SQL Server 2000 instance no problem:<add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPCSQLSERVER;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" />
However, I am having trouble connecting to the Default SQL Server 2005 instance. I have tried:
<add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPC;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" />
but it doesn't work. I have tried explicitly setting SQL Server 2005 to use port 1434 (as SQL Server 2000 is running on port 1433), and then used:
<add key="ConnectionString" value="server=MYPC,1434;database=mydatabase;user id=****;password=****" />
but this doesn't work either.
Am I mssing something here? Any help much appreciated
Thanks...

Does anyone know what SQL Server uses to identify other servers which contain SQL Server, when you attempt to register a new server through enterprise mgr? For instance when you go through the new sql server registration wizard, the second screen allows you to choose what server you would like to register, and it shows you the available servers on the lan that contain sql server 6.5 or 7.0. What is enterprise mgr using to locate the other servers containing SQL Server? Thanks in advance.

I just created a new db on a programmer's machine. Now I cannot register his sql server on my sql server. It doesn't like 'sa'. I can connect as 'administrator' but then I cannot do anything. Seems like the logins are messed up. I am not able to execute any stored procedures as administrator.
Any ideas besides reloading sql?
Thanks.

Hi,
I have recently installed SQL Server 2000, And trying to register a remote SQL 7 server, through enterprise manager which fails with the following error message: Timeout expired
I am able to connect to the same server using Query Analyzer.
I was able to register this server from the same machine, prior to the installation of SQL 2000. Also, I am still able to connect to other SQL 7 servers, with SQL 2000 enterprise manager.
Any Ideas?

Over the weekend we changed ISPs on our SQL Server 2000 machine. The only configuration change was the IP address. I'm able to register the server from client machines using EM which are on the same network, but I can't register it from home. I've verified the IP address, username/password etc and the connection just fails with the message 'Sql Server does not exist or access is denied.' Could this be a port issue? Any ideas? Thanks.

Hi all,We have standardized on Hyperion as our reporting tool. So far I haveonly set up a couple of Access databases as data sources for it. Nowthere is a request to report off our eOn (telephony management) SQLServer database using Hyperion. The eOn SQL Server box is in aworkgroup that is not part of the rest of our domain. (We only haveone domain because we don't have a "forest", whatever that means.) Itis behind a router owned by eOn along with a PBX and some other stuff.Setting up a data source for Hyperion requires creating a special datasource file called an .oce on the box where the Hyperion fat client(required for most administrative tasks) resides, and also setting up adifferent special data source file called a .das on the server wherethe Hyperion services run. (The analysts and end-users do not have thefat client, their access is web-based.)I have to register the eOn SQL Server by using the IP address and SQLServer authentication. (I was told that I can't use Windowsauthentication because it is not in the domain.) From the box onwhich the Hyperion fat client resides, I cannot register the eOn SQLServer. The error message is "timeout expired". Tracerting indicatesthere are no intermediate hops when attempting to connect from thisVLAN. From my desktop, which is on a different VLAN, I can connect toand register it. This trip includes one hop at our 6509. From one ofmy servers which is on the same VLAN as the fat-client box, I am ableto connect and register. On the fat-client box I tried deleting andre-registering another SQL Server and there was no problem.The IP address I have to use to connect to the eOn SQL Server is *NOT*the actual IP address of the box it resides on, but rather the eOnrouter, which translates it to the address of the server. We have nocontrol over this, eOn creates this setup. I'm not sure how it knowswhich of the devices behind it a given message is for.Ideas?

I was on the SQL Server Express Edition site (http://www.microsoft.com/sql/editions/express/default.mspx), and I used a link that suggested by registering my SQL Server Express I could get some royalty free images and an e-book. I followed the process, and they immediately sent me an email full of links, some of which do not seem to work. The link for the Registration Benefits Portal takes me to a "Page Not Found" error on Microsoft. The article within Resources called "Using SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services with SQL Server Express" also doesn't work.
I guess I didn't really need these "benefits", but it was kind of aggravating. This is 10 minutes I won't ever get back.
Since the email said to report any problems to the forums, this is what I am doing.

I have set up SQL Server Express with a Server Name / Instance name RMUKOCSQLEXPRESS
However, from another Server running the full SQL Server 2005 Management Studio I cannot seem to register the above Server. The usual message of :
"An error has occurred while establising a connection to the server...."
I have allowed remote connections, set up default, named pipes etc on the SQL Server Express. Yet from the SQL Server Express Management Studio I can register full 2005 Server / Instances but not the other way round.
Is there anything else I need to be aware of or check for.
Thanks in advance

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.

I am running SQL 7 (SP3) on a 2000 Server. When I configure the server as part of the Workgroup I have no problems connecting from the workstation. However, if I join the server to our 2000 domain, I cannot connect and/or register the server from the workstation through EM.
Is this a security issue? If so, what are the minimum requirements or what else am I missing. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
Thank you,

We are running 3 versions of SQL - 6.5, 7.0, and now 2000.
I have all three versions installed on my PC and run Enterprise
Manager to manage the 2000 and 7.0 servers. The one 7.0 server
is registered fine. When I try to register the other 7.0 server
I get the following message -
(SQL DMO) SQL Server xxxx must be upgraded to
version 7.0 or later.
This same server is registered through Enterprise Manager on
another PC running the 3 versions of SQL and both SQL 7.0 servers
work fine on that Enterprise Manager installation.
Any suggestions as to what I need to do to be able to register
the 7.0 server on the Enterprise Manager running on my PC?

I'm trying to register a remote OLAP server under OLAP Manager.
After I enter the machine name I get the following:
Errors occurred while connecting to <server>.
Cannot open the following registry key on the server computer (<server>):
SoftwareMicrosoftOLAP ServerServer Connection Info
Do you still want to register this server?
The noticeable thing about this error message is that the registry key is missing the first level (HKEY_....). Has anyone been able to register a remote server? I can run OLAP Manager on the server without a problem. I just uninstalled and reinstalled OLAP services on the server and my desktop.
There is a registry key with this path under HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE on the server.

Dear All,
My office computer just had Vista installed on it and while going back through to re-install my software, I have encountered a problem in SQL Server 8.0. (Yes, I know it's old and likely has comparability issues with Vista, but I don't have the option to upgrade at this point.) I have two servers to register. One works fine, but the other won't register and returns the error "SQL Server does not exist or access denied. ConnectionOpen (Connect())". I am able to register these on machines running XP and Windows Server 2003, but not on my Vista machine. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this problem?
Thank you!

Dear All,
My office computer just had Vista installed on it and I have now encountered a problem in SQL Server 2000 sp4. (Yes, I know it's old and has comparability issues with Vista, but I don't have the option to upgrade at this point.) I have two servers to register. One works fine, but the other won't register and returns the error "SQL Server does not exist or access denied. ConnectionOpen (Connect())". I was able to register this one server that isn't working while previously running XP on my office computer and even as a test on another server running Windows Server 2003. This leads me to believe the problem is isolated with my installation on Vista and not with any permissions, etc. I have been scouring different forums looking for a fix for this, but have come up empty handed. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this problem?
Thank you!

When Trying to register a SQL Server using Windows Authentication, I get the following error:
Login failed for user '(null)'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.
When I edit the properties and make it SQL Authentication, it works fine. The SQL Server Service is starting up with a domain user account. If that makes any difference. Funny thing is, that my co-worker, can register the SQL Server in his Enterprise Manager using Windows Authentication. We are both Domain Admins and members of the servers local admin group. So, I'm not sure what to do now.
I checked under Security, Logins...and neither of us are listed under there.

I've two instances(Default, Named[dynamicsFINANCE]) running on SQL server 2014. However, when I try to connect to named instance say (dynamicsFINANCE) using SQL authentication from local SSMS, I get below error message:
A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: -1)
I assigned a static port number to the named instance [dynamicsFINANCE] 1450. I also setup the firewall rule to allow access to Port 1450.

I have a 3 node cluster on which I have installed SSAS as it's own insntance. I have created this as a named instance and can connect to it by serverinstance if I'm on the server itself. However from my desktop I get the error saying instance was not found on server name.
I have defined an alternate port and setup firewall rules and can connect via server:port but not serverinstance. Prior to making this change SSAS was running on default port of 2383 and I could connect just by servername.
I have read many articles for previous versions saying that clustered SSAS will always use 2383 and that you must connect just using servername. However and this is were it gets strange. I have a 2 node UAT cluster with SSAS setup exactly the same way I've described above and I can connect from my desktop as serverinstance.
Should I be able to connect as serverinstances for a named clustered instance in 2012 ?

Hi,
I want to move one database from the source SQL Server 2000 instance to a new SQL 2000 instance in another machine. I have five user databases in this source SQL instance. How should be my approach to move this single database out of this ? My understanding is restoring this database in the new instance, copying all logins to the new instance and then copying the jobs, DTS packages, alerts, operators only specific to this database will do it. Please let me know if this is exactly what I should do ..
Thanks in advance..

Got windows Vista Business edition, installed Visual Web Developer Express, SQL Server 2005 Express SP2, SQL Server Management Studio SP1 in that order. I was developing in VWD express without problems using WinXP but now on Vista Business, the local connection to SQL server appears to be a problem.
I know there's nothing wrong with my web.config or anything like that as it was working perfectly prior to running under Vista. If i specify the database on the live website, it works fine. If I specify the test database in app_data folder, I get the following exception:-

I am setup as an administrator, running VWD as an administrator and for the record, SQL Server Management Studio express works fine.
Another small issue, when I run the application from VWD, I always have to minimise the application and restore it as the graphics get corrupt.
Please help!! I cannot debug when running of the live website.
