Replication :: Connections Through A Server Alias / IP Address Or Any Other Alternate Name Not Supported
Nov 13, 2015
While I try to configure replication getting below error message:SQL Server replication requires the actual server name to make a connection to the server. Connections through a server alias, IP address, or any other alternate name are not supported. Specify the actual server name, "servername". (Replication.Utilities)
Note: SQL server instance names shows different in sql server configuration manager and SSMS sql server instance name in  configuration manager: 2di3100sqlserverprod ,but i run the query in SSMS SELECT @@SERVERNAME it shows: 2di3100plugin.

Hi,
I have transactional replication setup with SQL 2000 on W2K3 cluster using updateable push subscribers. While setting up replication, we chose default location for snapshot folder that resides on non-clustered drive. Is there a way to change this location without disturbing current replication setup. I looked at the 'alternate snapshot location' solution, but it requires snapshot re-initialization. I am trying to do this with minimal effort and downtime.
Thanks,

I have a Merge publication that has multiple subscribers. They are all SQL Express, so it's all Push Subscriptions.
When I try to add a subscriber by it's IP address, the snapshot gets delivered. Schema created, data loaded, but I see the following error in Replication Monitor:
The merge process was unable to deliver the snapshot to the Subscriber. If using Web synchronization, the merge process may have been unable to create or write to the message file. When troubleshooting, restart the synchronization with verbose history logging and specify an output file to which to write. (Source: MSSQL_REPL, Error number: MSSQL_REPL-2147201001)
Cannot find the object 'MSmerge_ctsv_E0801EECCA824BB29D48D36D64D2BAEA', because it does not exist or you do not have permission. (Source: MSSQLServer, Error number: 15151)
When I change the IP address in the script to the name of the machine it works perfectly. The ONLY thing I changed in the script was the IP address to the name.
The reason for this is that I have several client machines that will have connectivity, but NO name resolution back at the Server.
Please, Please, Please help!

We will be moving 2 different databases (SS2005 & SS2008) to a new SS2014 SQL Server.  Currently our codes looks something like Server1DBInstance1... & Server2DBInstance2... Is it possible to move the objects from these 2 instances to Server3DBInstance3 and then use an alias to reference the objects?  Or does Server3 need to have DBInstance1 & DBIstance2?  Basically, is the alias just for the database or for the instance too?  Can I create an alias "Server1DBInstance1' on Server3DBInstance3 and assign objects to that alias?

We just erected a new firewall that only allows PASV FTP. Now, my SQL Server can't call master..xp_cmdshell "ftp ...".
Does anyone know how to make the NT FTP client work in PASV (passive) mode or another FTP client that can be called from xp_cmdshell and works in passive more?

how to add a alias to a server?
I have gone through BOL where it says it can be done thru right click agent -->> connections and configure alias.
i want to know if i configure a alias to a server from a client is it valid for other connections also?
meaning there are two database servers A and B
i add alias to server A by using client network utilities on server B,
then is this alias available if i try to connect to the server A thro some other server c?
hope this is not that confusing as it sounds. ;)

Is there any way to refer to an Alias in a select statement? For example, if I create an expression that sums to fields together and give it the alias TOTAL, and then in another field I want to create and other expresssion that multiplies a field by TOTAL, what is the syntax?
In MS Access the Alias name is surrounded by brackets, but I can't seem to find a way to do this with SQL Server.
Thanks

We have a SQL 2000 installation on a server called SATURN that has been around for a while. We've installed a new SQL 2005 installation on a server called DEIMOS. Our intention is to move all the databases that are currently on SATURN, to DEIMOS.
I've just been looking at the config settings, and it's suddenly occurred to me that the ability to set Server Aliases might save me quite a bit of work. What I'm thinking is setting a new alias on DEIMOS called SATURN. Then I won't need to go round the various applications changing the connection properties.
So:
Does this sound reasonable?
I intend uninstalling SQL 2000 from SATURN, but the server itself will stay - is that ok?
What will happen if SQL comes alive on the server SATURN while the alias is in place - effectively there will be 2 servers responding to SATURN. I ask this because my intention is to shut down all the SQL services on SATURN, set up the alias, and once I'm happy with the testing, then uninstall. Just wondering what will happen if for some reason the services were restarted before I finish.
Is there anything else I need to consider?Regards,
Tim

Today I found a problem with alias name during retrieving values from database table with alias name. My query was like as following:
========================================================SelectEmpID,Case EmpNameOrEmpFirstLastNameWhen ‘EN’ ThenEmpNameElse--EmpLast + “, � + EmpFirst
EmpLast + ', ' + EmpFirstEnd As EmpName,CityFrom tblEmployeeWhere EmpName LIKE ‘N%’=======================================================
When I execute this query I get all the record which contains the N% in EmpName as well as from FirstName. As you know that should not because I give alias name EmpName to EmpLast + ', ' + EmpFirst. But here the problem is we cannot use the alias name in Where condition.
I resolve this problem by using #temp table like the following:=======================================================SelectEmpID,Case EmpNameOrEmpFirstLastNameWhen ‘EN’ ThenEmpNameElse--EmpLast + “, � + EmpFirst
EmpLast + ', ' + EmpFirstEnd As EmpName,CityInto #tmpEmployeeFrom tblEmployee
Select * from #tmpEmployee where EmpName LIKE ‘N%’=======================================================
It really very simple, isn’t it? You can use the reference link:Reference: http://www.thescripts.com/forum/thread82710.html
So friends enjoy, we are the Sql Master:)Regards,Vijay Modi

I have a SQL Server 6.5 db on a server, we need to migrate SQL Server to another server.
We have about 400 users connected to an OBCD driver pointing to the original server and
would like to connect them to the new server.
How can I do this without changing all the users OBCD settings?
Is there a function to alias the new server?

I understand there is a way for a user to connect to a SQL Server
using an ALIAS ( i.e. I am connected with one instance using the
name DUBAY and now I want to make another connection with my
ALias - George). I'd appreciate anyone telling me how to do this.
Thanks in advance.

I am moving my Sql Server installation to a larger machine. In doing so, I don't want to change everyone's connection settings. Does anyone see any issues with using an DNS alias to connect to the new server?
Using the same name is not an option per the windows admin group that is provisioning the machine.
Thanks,

Hi,
In DTS 2000 when you created a connection you could use a server alias (as created in the network client utility) as the servername. When I try to use a server alias in connection mgr(I am using Native Client) it fails to connect with the standard error: "Test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider. Login timeout expired. etc etc...
Has anyone had success using a server alias? (Yes i set up the alias using sql configuration mgr)
The problem I am trying to solve is I have dev/test/production environments that I want to move this package to and I don't want to have to change any server name properties within the package when moving to the different environments.
Thanks

Hello there.
I'm developing an eCommerce solutions based on the ASP.NET 2.0 Commerce Starter Kit, architechture. It uses the Provider Pattern. In my web-application, i use the CatalogProvider, to retrieve data from a SQL Server 2005 database. I call the methods through a handler class, whoch excists inside the WebApp. I also use a ShoppingCartProvider, OrdersProvider, ShippingProvider etc. in the same way.
In my Web.Config file, i have all the provers listed, and on each provider, the name of the connectionString to use are given.
My connection string looks like this:"connString" connectionString="Server=xxxx;Database=xxxx;Trusted_Connection=True;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
The problem is, that suddently, when browsing the website, that connects to the database through the providers, i get this error:
Keyword not supported: ',server'.
Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. Exception Details: System.ArgumentException: Keyword not supported: ',server'.Source Error:
Line 31: public static IDataReader GetProductsByCategory(int categoryID)
Line 32: {
Line 33: return Commerce.Providers.CatalogProvider.Instance.GetProductsByCategory(categoryID);
Line 34: }
Line 35:
Source File: d:DevelopmentASPNETSeoShopApp_CodeHandlersCatalogManager.cs Line: 33 Stack Trace:
If i then go back to my web.config file, and removes the providerName section, of the connectionString, the website works again, for a short period. When the error return, i undo the deletion of the providerName, and it will work again... For a short time...
I've also tried to use another connectionsString, like this:Data Source=Aron1;Initial Catalog=pubs;Integrated Security=SSPI
But then the keyword which is not supported is: ', data source'
Does anyone know what the issue might be?
Thanks in advance...

I receive the following error message when I run a distributed query against a loopback linked server in SQL Server 2005:
The Microsoft Distributed Transaction Coordinator (MS DTC) has cancelled the distributed transaction.
To resolve this problem, I was told that running a distributed query against a loopback linked server is not supported in SQL Server 2005. And I am suggested to use a remote server definition (sp_addserver) instead of a linked server definition to resolve this problem. (Although this is only a temporary resolution, which will deprecate in Katmai)
However, I run into another problem when I use the remote server definition. I receive the following error message:
Msg 18483, Level 14, State 1, Line 1
Could not connect to server 'ServerNameSQL2005' because '' is not defined as a remote login at the server. Verify that you have specified the correct login name.
Could anyone please help me out?

I had two servers, in which SQL Servers are installed. I created a alias for server
Server 1 : test1.sqlcloud.com (Alias name with port no other than 1433)
Server 2 : test2.sqlcloud.com (Alias name with port no other than 1433)
I can connect to the servers using the port. for ex server1 to server2 and viceversa using "test2.sqlcloud.com,port". But I could not connect to the server by only specifying the alias name ("test2.sqlcloud.com"). When I am connecting I am getting the following error.
"TITLE: Connect to Server
------------------------------
Cannot connect to test2.sqlcloud.com.

ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
Connection Timeout Expired. The timeout period elapsed while attempting to consume the pre-login handshake acknowledgement.

so you have two place to configure alias, in SQL server configuration manager under aliases tab on and on the cliconfg.exe tool on a different machine. If I want another server to see this sql server by the alias name I will need to configure the alias on the cliconfg tool on the client machine. It looks like as long as I have the alias configured in the cliconfg on the client machine, I don't need the alias to exist on the config manager, the client can still see SQLserver using just the alias on cliconfg...if so, I wondering under what situation I would really need the alias on the configuration manager?

Hello,
I would like create/modify/update the alias SQL server name on the SQL 2005 version.
I had a database mirroring on one base, and when the primary server fail, i would like my secondary alias become as the primary. I need this because of the application whom use my SQL server.
I tried with
sp_dropserver <old_name>
GO
sp_addserver <new_name>, local
GO
But this way doesn't work...
Anyone got an idea to change alias SQL server in transact?
Thanks for your help!!!

I have looked all over the MS site and can find very little information regarding SQL Server's support for the VMWare environment. Based on other information that I have obtained on other forums and web-site it looks like it is not supported by Microsoft, but I would like the company line if possible.

Can someone please shed some light on what seems to me to be a common requirement.
If I create an alias or linked server to Server1 - say Alias1 - on Server1 and then use that name in a query on Server1, a remote/distributed query is always used (even though we are running on the local server and that overhead is completely unnecessary).
Is SQL Server really not capable of deciding that
select * from Alias1.db1.dbo.table1
and
select * from Server1.db1.dbo.table1
should be optimized and executed exactly the same when Alias1 is Server1, but that it is a distributed query ONLY when Alias1 is really referring to a remote server? I realize that the four part name is not necessary when I am referring to objects on the current server, but I am trying to write code that is server instance independent.
It just seems that if that is not possible, then the only way to create system independent stored procs that can run in dev, staging, and production environments and work with multiple databases on multiple servers is to create all sorts of scripts to regenerate all the procs whenever you move a database between servers?
If SQL Server is even close to the enterprise big iron server that MS now claims it is, it surely needs to support running in dev, staging, and production environments and work with multiple databases on multiple servers?!
I'm really looking for someone to tell me I'm missing something simple, and of course you can do this - but complex workarounds are invited too :-)
This is not something I am investigating as an academic exercise, I am already doing this, but I have to figure out how to do it better because with all these unnecessary distributed queries, performance is horrible.
Thanks
Sean

Hello,
Soon, we are going to redesign our servers and their positioning insofar as web access is concerned. The SQL Server will go to a DMZ.
Its IP Address (as well as hostname) is to be changed. Can you offer suggestions about what to be aware of on these two items?
I've been involved in a hostname change befoew (and, it's a pain), but never an IP Address.

We changed the TCP/IP address on on of our BDC's this weekend (also runs SQL 6.5). Now some of our client workstations are not able to connect to the database using TCP/IP. They can connect with named pipes, but it doesn't "stick" on a reboot. It goes back to connecting with tcp/ip. Some of the client workstations can connect with tcp/ip. Could someone help me with this? I'm confused. I can ping the server by name from the workstations and it resolves the tcp/ip address correctly.

A server with SQL 2000 installed is moving to a new physical location. Ourcompany standards mean that the name of the server and the IP address of theserver will change also. This SQL instance name is the same as the servername. Will I have to uninstall and reinstall SQL Server (and recover thedatabases) when this move is made so that the instance name equals theserver name? Is there a stored procedure that changes the instance name tothe server name? Thank you.
