I am building a program in vb.net 2005 as a booking system using SQL server as backend. I have just finally managed to get SQL server working on the server, DIY Windows XP Server, but I cannot make remote logins. I have my client computers connected through a workground called JNKVPN. I can connect to all the client computers on the network through the workgroup computers menu off network places. I want to add a remote user account to SQL Server management studio express but none of the client computers are listed as domains.
Is there any way I can get them listed. I have been getting very fustrated with this and i need to have the program i am writing completed by 28th Sept 2007 so this is really delaying me substatially.
I am trying to add a linked server from a AMD x64 server (Windows 2003) with SQL Server 2005 64 bit to a Server running SQL 2000. These are not in the same domain.
I can create a linked server using the option "Be made using the login's current security context" but can not when trying to specify the security context, i.e. sa and the sa password. When I try I get the following message:
Msg 15185, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_addlinkedsrvlogin, Line 98 There is no remote user 'sa' mapped to local user '(null)' from the remote server 'DTS_FSERVER'.
I have several other x64 server that I have no problem creating a linked server and specifying sa and the sa password.
The problem with using "the login's current security context" option is that I get an error when trying to run any Jobs against the linked server. The job fails withe the following error:
Executed as user: NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM. Access to the remote server is denied because no login-mapping exists. [SQLSTATE 42000] (Error 7416). The step failed.
I'm sure the two errors are related. Any ideas what is going on?
Msg 15466, Level 16, State 2, Procedure sp_addlinkedsrvlogin, Line 91 An error occurred during decryption. Msg 15185, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_addlinkedsrvlogin, Line 98 There is no remote user 'beg' mapped to local user '(null)' from the remote server 'QRY1'.
Hello guys and girls! I need help for this error. Could anyone be so kind to enlighten me on this? Thanks! When i attempted to login to my local page, this occurred:
I have Developer's Edition of SQL Server installed on my PC. I want my users to run and view my new RS report from their PCs across the network without installing SS on their machines.
We experimented a little bit by asking one user to use these URLs...http://mymachine/reports$myinstance and http://mymachine/reportserver$myinstance) after giving her browse rights in report manager from my PC.
When she uses the first URL, she gets a popup asking for sign in info, but gets nowhere when typing in her windows sign in info. When she uses the second, she gets thru to the report choices but gets an error like...
* An error has occurred during report processing. (rsProcessingAborted)
* Cannot create a connection to data source 'xxxxx'. (rsErrorOpeningConnection)
* For more information about this error navigate to the report server on the local server machine, or enable remote errors
...after choosing my report. xxxxx is the name of the only datasource in the report.
Before we began, we also turned off 'enable anonymous access' and instead clicked 'integrated windows authentication' in IIS on my pc.
My user is on a different domain controller than I am. I asked a colleague who is on the same domain controller to try the URLs and he had no problems running my report from either. He wasnt given any explicit permissions/rights at either the reporting or db level.
I was able to do this on a Windows XP machine but I am not able to get this to work on a Windows 2003 Server machine. I am connecting to the Windows 2003 Server and MS SQL Express via remote desktop on the lan.
This is what worked for me before: EXEC sp_grantlogin '4800X2ASPNET' USE MyDB EXEC sp_grantdbaccess '4800X2ASPNET' EXEC sp_addrolemember 'db_owner', '4800X2ASPNET'
But for some reason now I am getting this error: Msg 15401, Level 11, State 1, Procedure sp_grantlogin, Line 49 Windows NT user or group '4800X2ASPNET' not found. Check the name again. Msg 15401, Level 16, State 1, Line 1 Windows NT user or group '4800X2ASPNET' not found. Check the name again. Msg 15410, Level 11, State 1, Procedure sp_addrolemember, Line 75 User or role '4800X2ASPNET' does not exist in this database.
I thought what I needed to add was the name of this pc that will connect remotely, but that doesn't seem to be working. What weird is the old copy of this query I used had the local pc as the computer name. If I exchange the computer name from the remote pc name to the local 2003 Server machine name, the query works fine. Although that still doesn't let me add connections via Web Developer Express without error. It doesn't make sense to me anyhows, how could I have used the local machine's name and not the remote machine's name to get this to work previously. So confused.
Hi, I have an ASP.Net web application running in groupnamewebservername. I am trying to connect it to the remote database server groupnamedatabaseservername using the ASPNET user id. The remote database is SQL Server 2005 and the web server has IIS 6.0 installed. My web.config connection entry has username as "groupnamewebservernameaspnet" and I have a database user in remote database server under the login name groupnamewebservername$. When I try to connect, I keep getting the following error: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Login failed for user 'groupnamewebservernameaspnet'.
Could you please let me know what I am doing wrong here? Thanks. Regards, Gayathri.

ProblemWhen Remote Desktop to my main office machine, and when trying toconnect to SQL Express, I was becoming increasingly frustrated with thefollowing error:Error: 'Failed to generate a user instance of SQL Server due to afailure in starting the process for the user instance. The connectionwill be closed.'What is the solution?Solutions: ( pick any of the 3)1. Obtain and apply the patch http://support.microsoft.com/?id=8966132. Wait for the next Windows Service pack3.Of course if you can not get the patch, you can always do this (Note:You must have WinVnc server running in your remote computer)1. In the remote desktop session, reboot your computer.Click Start->Windows Security->Shutdown->Restart.Wait for some time to get machine up.2. Use your vncviewer to login to your remote computer. You can chooseto do all work via VNC or go to next step.3. Use remote desktop to login (this automatically closes the winvncsession).There you go, You did not create a remote session, but reused yourlocal session.

trying to connect to sql server 2005 over the internet. (its a third paty hosting company i'm using)
so i have to connect via tcp/ip using sql server authentication.
my laptop is running vista.
the version of sql server 2005 on my laptopis developer edition with service pack 2.
it worked fine from windows xp and the connection details are valid as it runa fine from .net on the hosting website.
i have added sql serer managemnt studio to the exceptions list in the firewall.
ihave made sure tcpip is enabled in the sql server connection management console.
i have also enabled it in the cliconfg tool
firewall on/off seems to make no difference.
its almost enough to make you turn to oracle and thats saying something considering how long i've been in the microsoft camp...
the error returned is: Login failed for user 'SQL2005_152092_garethbowen'. (.Net SqlClient Data Provider)

I'm using a legacy application built using VB5 and SQL Server 7. After recompiling it, and putting the database in SQL Server 2012. I want to access the current login user using the SQL function SUSER_SNAME().
This is the code.
Set rdoRes = goDatabase.Connection.OpenResultset("select suser_sname()")
But I'm unable to get the current user login in the application. If I write any other SQL statement instead of this, then it runs. But only this statement is not running. Is there any security reasons for this?
This is my first time to deploy an asp.net2 web site.

Please make sure the user has a local user profile on the computer. The connection will be closed" (only in pages that try to access the database) Help pleaseee
- When I disable "allow remote connections to this server" from server properties>connection page, I can still remotely connect to the server from SSMS...so what is the impact of enable/disabling it?
- what is the impact of changing the remote query timeout (on the same page) from default value?
Fellow Devs, I have an instance of SQL Server Express 2005 running on another box and I have Remote Connections enabled over both TCP/IP and Named Pipes, but on my other box I keep getting the error that the server does not accept Remote Connections. Any ideas why this might be happening? Is there some other configuration?
HiI'm going insane.I have a club starter kit on my local server which is working fine.I have migrated the database to my remote host and seems to have transfered ok.For a brief period I was able to connect to the database remotely, but now I cannot I get the following, even though SQL Server Surface Area Config is set to accept remote connections.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: TCP Provider, error: 0 - A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.)This is my connection string;<add name="ClubSiteDB" connectionString="Data Source=xx.xxx.xx.xx,xxxx; Network Library=DBMSSOCN; Initial Catalog=tets; User ID=sqladminbob;Password=sqlbob4398;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient="/>I hav also tried to use aspnet_regsql.exe to add the remote provider but I get the same message. Thanks
When I am in Visual Studio 2005, and I try to add an SQL database, I get the following error "generating user instances in sql server is disabled. use sp_configure user instances enabled to generate user instances." I am currently using SQL server 2005 Express. What do I need to do, to create an SQL database? Thanks in advance.
I just want to find out what the difference between a remote login and a remote query is. I'd have thought that a remote query inherently requires a remote login.
Has anyone seen this error? It comes up when my app executes a select statement via linked server (from MSSQL 2000 to 2005) the second time it runs. It's basically a timed poll of tables in the remote database. It works once but the second time it executes I get the error from the remote db, it's just a select but I guess the cursor is still open so it can't run again. After the exception the select will run again, once and it just repeats. I have researched it a little and it looks like it mostly has to do with the isolation level of the transaction. Unfortunately based on the componet being used to access the database I don't beleive I have the ability to use transact SQL to call the isolation level (s) listed.
Here's the weird part though, at another site the same scenario is running fine. Same primary and remote db versions of MSSQL as well as the application and it runs fine. I guess my question is what type of setup parameters that may be defined in MSSQL 2005 for the remote database might make it behave in this manner in one instance and not the other? TIA in advance for any thoughts/assistance.
i'm using the Enterpirse library logger to write logs into a database. When choosing connection string i choose the database i want in the "connection properties" dialog box and push 'Test connection' button. everything goes well.
then i open the SQL Server Management studio express and connect to the databse to check some things, from that point on , when i push the 'Test Connection' button in the Enterprise library i get the error:
"cannot open user default database. Login failed. login failed for user My'server/MyuserName'"
even when i close the sql server manager , it is still stuck - the connection test doesn't work anymore.... it only work when i restart the computer.

I have This Error When i try to log into My online web site, i have no idea how to fix it,one day it was working and the next it wasnt, is there any way to find out what database the default is and if it's either incorrect or not present change the web.config in a way that will make my system work. i have the NT Authority/Network Service in my Server Properties Permissions, its given the type login and is granted Connect SQL by sa i have 3 colder copies of the web site on my server my question is, how would i use of of these to restore the original site configuration is there a way to restore the original configuration to undo whatever it is i've done to break the system ChrisStressed
I would like to know if there is a way to find out who changed a users roles/access WITHOUT using the audit function. For example, if a user account was created and given SA access then changed to read only, how can I find out who made that change? I tried searching for an answer, but kept getting no results. I'm thinking this may tie into the sys.sysusers view?
I have several reports for users to view on our Intranet. After installation of SQL 2005 SP2 patch, I cannot delete user or user's authority from Report in Properties Tab. An error message was shown on the status bar. It indicated that JavaScript Error: 'Return' statement outside of function. Seems something wrong with the 'Delete' funciton in SQL 2005 after update. The other functions worked fine. Could you point me out how to fix it or need to install any updates / hotfix. Thanks a lot!
Hi, I'm new to SQL Express 2005. I found information regarding : "Cannot open user default database. Login failed."on this forum but I think that in my case it's a bit different issue. I have a website (ASP.NET 2.0) accessing DB, in the mean time Windows Service tries to update some data in the same DB (Service runs as NT AUTHORITYLOCAL SYSTEM). The second connection is rejected: "Cannot open user default database. Login failed.Login failed for user ....". Problem occurs only when both: service and website are running at the same time. So service and website are running without problems when they are connecting DB exclusively. My connection string is: "Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename="|DataDirectory|spider-lab.mdf";Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"
Hi, I have a copy of VS2005 and i have installed the Microsoft SQL Server Developer Edition I am trying to do my first connection using ASP.net (yay for me...) and it has failed...with this error..Login failed for user 'testuser'. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.
can someone please point out why? yes i know that the error seems pretty straight forward but how do i fix it? like how do i make the user a trusted server connection? where do i do it? and what are the steps? the user is an administrator and by rights should have all access to everything....
connection string
SqlConnection MySQLConnection; MySQLConnection = new SqlConnection("server=cmptrname\databsename;uid=testuser;password=password;database=mytest");
btw while your reading do you have any examples of opening a db with the connection string in the web.config file? because i get some error "connection string has not been initialised" using the system.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings.Get i though i would stick to the top code first before i tackled the web config error first....

IIS has 4 websites hosted on it. The parent level allows anonymous with windows auth off, but the website level has anonymous off with widnows auth and digest. In IIS, is there a problem with having the parent level anonymous and website level windows auth?
All the research I found dealing with this problem is that the solution is to set SQLserver to mix mode. I have SQL server already set to mix mode. I am not sure what else to do. Has anybody run into this problem? my connection string: <connectionStrings> <add name="ConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source= server name ; Initial Catalog=FILESHAREDB.MDF; Integrated Security=false;"providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/> </connectionStrings>

Our server has integrated security setup, upon startup of the server, we have a continuous flow of error msg: Login Failed: Reason: User '_' not defined as a valid user of trusted connection. The timing of these messages only around 30 seconds apart The only incident from Technet I can find is Q186314, but we don't have replication setup, anyone knows where I can look into ? I recycle the server but didn't help. I appreciate any help I can get .. Thanks.
I am relatively new to sql developer. There is a new user that just joined our organization. I am trying to grant him the same direct grants privilege to the tables that an existing user has. The existing user has a ton of direct table access privileges and it will take days if I had to do each grant one by one like: grant select,insert,delete,update on 'table name' to 'user id'. Is there a way of copying or inserting an existing user's privilege and granting it to a new user.
