Remote Client Connecting To A SQL 2005 Instance.

Jul 25, 2007

Good afternoon,

I currently develop/maintain VB 05' apps for PDA's and desktops. I've got a scanner app that scans labels to build/transmit orders via an HTTP byte stream. I'm currently building an inventory app that resides at the remote client (windows not web) and can eventually connect to my SQL Server @ corp. At this point SQL 2005 endpoints work on the internal network but fail to resolve remotely. I've read about connecting to a SQL Server via HTTP with ip specs embedded in the connect string but havnt been able to find an example. Outside of creating a VPN for connectivity, can anyone recommend connection ideas for my scenario? Is it true that endpoints are only recommended for intranet consumption?

Thanks,

ChrisG

Problem Connecting To SS2K5 Named Instance Using Client Tools

Aug 9, 2007

Hi,

The problem I have is this:


I have installed SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition on a W2K3 server that already has a SQL Server 2000 default instance installed. The installation appears to be a success. The problem is that having installed the client tools, and trying to connect, I get the following error message in a dialog:


"Cannot connect server SERVERNAMEINSTANCENAME
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: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating
Server/Instance Specified)(Microsoft SQL Server)"


The funny thing is that I can connect to the SQL Server 2000 default instance that is on that server.
So it's obviously not a connection problem per se at my end i.e. bad dns etc which might stop me resolving the server name.


Googling for this error text gives the following advice on various web sites:


1. Check that the remote server allows connections.


It does, as other colleagues in my team have successfully installed the tools and can connect with no problems.


2. Check that the SQL Browser service is running.


It is, as without this running, my colleagues would not be able to connect either.


3. Open SQL Server Configuration Manager. Select "SQL Server 2005 Network Configuration | Protocols for MSSQLSERVER" then enable the protocols you need.


The required protocol (TCP/IP) is enabled. Named pipes is also enabled, although I don't think that we're using that. And shared memory is also enabled by default.


4. Open the firewall and add exceptions for sqlbrowser.exe or UDP port
1434


There is no firewall running at either end of the connection and as mentioned I can connect to the SS2K default instance.


5. Make sure that the server machine is reachable.



I can connect to the SS2K default instance so it must be reachable. I can't see that I would need to change any configuration settings as my colleagues are using exactly the same default settings for their connections and they work fine.


The only thing that I have done differently is that I originally installed the client tools using someone else's privileged account as I didn't have admin rights on my box. The client tools didn't work, so I got admin rights to my box, uninstalled the client tools and then reinstalled them using my account. Still no luck. Not sure if something is still hanging around after the uninstallation that would cause me a problem.

To help, I've also filled out the following questionnaire:

[1] Client side:
> What is the connection string in you app or DSN?
There isn't one. I'm trying to connect from the SQL Server Management Studio | 'Connect to Server' dialog.
> If client fails to connect, what is the client error messages?
"Cannot connect server Y
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: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating
Server/Instance Specified)(Microsoft SQL Server)"
Is the client remote or local to the SQL server machine? Remote
Can you ping your server? YES
Can you telnet to your SQL Server? YES
What is your client database provider? [SNAC | MDAC | ADO.NET1.0 | ADO.NET2.0| other (please specify] N/A
What is your client application? SQL Management Studio
Is your client computer in the same domain as the Server computer? Different domains
What protocol the client enabled? [Shared Memory | TCPIP | Named Pipes]. All 3 protocols are enabled
Do you have aliases configured that match the server name portion of your connection string? No
Do you select force encryption on server and/or client? No

[2] Server side:
What is the MS SQL version? SQL Server 2005
What is the SKU of MS SQL? Enterprise
What is the SQL Server Protocol enabled? [Shared Memory | TCPIP | Named Pipes ]. All 3
Does the server start successfully? YES. Other people can connect to the same instance.
If SQL Server is a named instance, is the SQL browser enabled? YES
What is the account that the SQL Server is running under? Domain Account
Do you make firewall exception for your SQL server TCP port if you want connect remotely through TCP provider? N/A. Firewall not running.
Do you make firewall exception for SQL Browser UDP port 1434? N/A. Firewall not running.
What tool or Application are you using to connect to SQL Server SQL Server Management Studio

[3] Platform:
What is the OS version? Windows 2003 (Server side), Windows XP Pro Version 2002 SP 2
Do you have third party antivirus, anti-spareware software installed? Symantec AntiVirus

[4] Misc:
If you have certificate configuration issue: N/A


Has anybody else come across this problem, as I've run out of ideas.


Many thanks,

Connecting To A Local Instance From A Remote Computer

Sep 18, 2007

Greetings friends,

Not sure if this is the right place for my question but here goes anyway.

I have an instance of SQL Server 2005 installed on my DEV PC. A colleague of mine wants to access my server from his machine which connected to the same network.

I logged on to SSMS and added him as a new login.

Will he be able to connect to it now or do I have to do more than just that?

Your help would be appreciated.

Error 26 Connecting To Remote SQL Server Instance

Jan 17, 2008

I am attempting something that I have done many times before; however, in this instance it continues to fail.


I am trying to connect Management Studio to an instance of SQL Server 2005 Express over a VPN. The Management Studio connect dialog always fails with Error 26.


I have:

Enabled the instance for remote connections €“ both TCP/IP and Named Pipes

Ensured that the instance is enabled for TCP/IP on the VPN address (10.2.1.1) and on port 1433

Ensured that the instance is running

Ensured that SQL Browser is running

Ensured that ports 1433 (TCP) and 1434 (UDP) are open on the firewall for inbound traffic

Rebooted the server following this configuration to ensure that the instance services are refreshed

Tried to connect from three separate clients (albeit on the same remote network)

Disabled the firewall to ensure no further complications (as a last resort)

I have this exact same setup functioning on a separate server.


There is an additional backstory to this problem; however, I will not complicate the scenario with it now. If you feel you can help then I can elaborate further on the server€™s history.


Thanks


James

Connecting To Remote SQL Server 2005

Jun 17, 2007



I have set up a SQL Server 2005 to use for testing before moving to another production server. The server works fine when I connect to it with a program on the same computer but not when accessed remotely.



I have set it to to allow remote connections and use TCP IP only and have opened TCP port 1433 on the Windows XP firewall and am using the Teredo service on Port UDP 3544 Also the Server Browser service is running. The server is connected directly to the internet on a static IP (eg. 67.156.18.167) I have set the server to Windows authentication.



When I try to connect to the database from a data grid in Visual Studio on another computer it fails.



I am pretty surethat the problem is that I am not giving the correct information when asked to fill in the information for the data source to find the server as I am new to remote connections in SQL Server.

Thanks for any insight

Connecting To SQL Server 2005 - Not Allow Remote Connections

Nov 23, 2006

I use ASP.NET 2.0 and VS.NET 2005.
I have the following expression in my code:
string connectionString = "server='localhost'; user id='sa'; password=''; Database='Northwind'";
 When I executed the code I have the following error 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. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)."
The Microsoft Access was successfully connected in the Server Explorer window.
How do I solve this problem?

Problems Connecting To Remote SQL Server 2005

Jan 4, 2007

I'm using Visual Studio 2005 Pro and am attempting to connect to a remote SQL Server 2005. I have the server name, SQL login credentials, and database name. However, when I try connecting I get this error:
"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: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)" 
I know that remote access is enabled because I received the connection instructions directly from the database administrator. I've tried turning off my firewall. I've tried connecting with Data source: Microsoft SQL Server using both Data providers: ".NET Framework Data Provider for SQL Server" and ".NET Framework Data Provider for OLE DB". Nothing seems to work.
Any suggestions for what I may be doing wrong? Do I have to have certain software installed on my computer to make this work (other that VS2005)?

Connecting To SQL Server 2005 From A Remote Machine

Jan 24, 2006

I'm trying to connect to a sql server machine from another machine on the network and I'm getting this error:
"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: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)"
More information about the machines:
All machines are on the same private netwrok, all in the same workgroup.
Machine1: this is the DB server, Win 2003 server, it has SQL 2005 developer edition, .Net runtime 2.0.
Machine2: trying to connect to machine 1, Win 2003 server, .Net runtime 2.0
On the DB server, TCP/IP is enabled with port 1433, also named pipes are enabled.
I checked the ERRORLOG and it says it's ready for connections and it's listening...Also there are no firewalls between the machines, I also added the sql server service .exe and the sql explorere .exe to the windows firewall exceptions on the DB server (although it's disabled)...
I'm not sure what else to do, I checked all sources online, applied anything related to this issue but not luck. This has wasted 3 hours of my time, this was a task that wouldn't take you a minute in older versions!! , Microsoft thinks it's making our life easier but in fact, I spend more time now on trouble shooting than before...
Let me know if you have a solution..
thanks,
Tamer

Error 26 - Connecting To A Remote SQL 2005 Instanc

I have been reading every resource available out there about getting this connection to work. Can someone help me diagnose what the problem is? As the client, what ports do I need to have open? I'm using ReliableSite.net web hosting and trying to connect to their sql server.

I've also asked for help on their forum and opened a ticket to see if perhaps its listening on a different port, but they say its my issue.

Connecting On One Remote Computer But Not The Other On Sql Server 2005

Feb 15, 2007

I am unable to connect to a remote server on Computer A from Computer B, but when I reverse it I am able to connect to a remote server on computer B from computer A. I have SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition on both computers. I am using the using the SQL Management Studio to connect. Both Computers have these settings

Using Surface Area Configuration both have local and remote connections checked. Both computers using tcp/ip only checked.

Using Configuration Manager both the sql server and the sql browser are running. Both computers have tcp/ip protocols enabled.

Under the server properties on both computers, under the Security Tab, I have SQL Server and Windows Authentication Mode checked. Under the Connections tab I have Allow remote connections on this server checked.

I believe I have the Security for both the server and databases done properly giving them both proper Logins and User Roles with the proper permission.

Also went to my window firewall settings and under the Exceptions tab, I added both the sql server.exe and sql browser.exe programs on both computers on my remote network.

But when I connect on Computer B, I get an error message stating:

TITLE: Connect to Server
------------------------------

Cannot connect to 'ServerName'

------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:

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.

I tried pinging server a and then server b and they both pinged.



Could someone please tell me what could be wrong on my remote computers.

How To Go Around The SQL Server 2005 User Instance Problem When Using Remote Desktop

Feb 5, 2006

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.

Connecting ASP.NET To MS SQL Server 2005 On Remote Server

Apr 11, 2008

hi,I recently finished designing an ASP.NET website which connects to MS SQL Server 2005 on my local machine. I have now just uploaded my ASP.NET website to a remote server and the MS SQL Database to another remote server. Unfortunately when I try and access the database through the website I get an error - I believe this is due to the website still trying to connect the database to my local machine instead of the remote server. In my web.config I have the following ConnectionString code:  <connectionStrings>    <add name="EcoHouse" connectionString="Server=localhostSqlExpress;Database=EcoHouse;Integrated Security=True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />    <remove name="LocalSqlServer" />    <add name="LocalSqlServer" connectionString="Server=localhostSqlExpress;Database=EcoHouse;Integrated Security=True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />    </connectionStrings> I attempted to use Microsoft .NET Framework SDK 2.0 to configure the remote server. I entered the following however got an error:

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.

1.
Click Start, point to Programs, point to Microsoft SQL Server 2005, point to Configuration Tools, and then click SQL Server Surface Area Configuration.
Ok, there is no such program in this folder.  The only thing in there is "SQL Server Error and Usage Reporting"...
 The other thing I am greatly concerned with is this:  All is want is for my webpages to be able to access my database for user authentication.  I DO NOT want to grant the internet rights to remote connect to my database.

Connecting To A Client's SQL Server

Jan 24, 2004

I am not sure if its possible, hopefully it is. I would like to create a custom page for one of my clients to log into and access information from their SQL server. If I have all the connection information, i.e user id and password etc. Can this be done. I know how to connect to an SQL server locally. If anyone can give me a point in the right direction, it would be greatly appreciative.

If this is possible, I am looking at adding a button on this page to allow the client to transfer records that meet specific criteria in a column in their database into a designated database on my server.

Thanks for any help.

Is it possible to retrieve the client PC's computer name through SQL?

I'm storing workstation specific data in a table and want to be able to retrieve it in order to persist the state of the application between sessions.

Perhaps there's a better way to do this that I'm not aware of? If so, please advise.

Dec 10, 2007

I get the following error and have been trying to figure out why I keep getting it.  Initially, I had placed my project under wwwroot folder and ran it under IIS and it gave this error.  Then I moved it to my local C drive and same thing.  I am sharing this project with two other co-workers and all our config files and code files are same...they don't get this error but I do.  I checked that SQL Server Client Network Utility has TCP/IP and the 'Named Pipes' enabled.  I thought maybe I have setting in the Visual Studio 2005 that I'm not aware of that's causing this problem...it can't be the server since my co-workers aren't having this error and can't be anything in the code since all of us are sharing this project through vss.  I dont' think using different version of .net framework can create this error.  I changed the version from 2.0 to use 1.1x and it gave same error... Any help would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

Connecting To A Second Instance Via VPN

Apr 8, 2004

Hi,

I have two SQL SERVER Instances on the computer I am trying to connect to via VPN:
1) TEST
2. TEST/INST2

I can connect to the first with no problems.

When I am trying to connect to the second (with the Enterprise Manager/Query Analyzer and even with isql) - I get the following message:
"SQL SERVER does not exists or access denied".

I use the SQL SERVER user and password to connect (as login sa).

How can I connect to the second instance?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Everyone,


I have configured reporting services to be connected from client with the help of http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms365170.aspx KB article and I can connect locally in the server without any error.

When I try to connect report service from my client Im getting the below error, can anyone help me to correct this.

Connecting To Express Instance

Oct 8, 2015

SQL Express 2014 was installed to support reporting for an application. I can connect to the server using the server name without any issue. When I run “select @@version”, I get SERVERNAMESQLEXPRESS, but I can’t connect to the server with SERVERNAMESQLEXPRESS. This is throwing off one of my script when trying to connect to the server.My script connects to the server using SERVERNAME for default instance or SERVERNAMEINSTANCENAME for named instance.
