We are unable to connect with Client SQL database server using VPN connection, even we are able connect with their intranet site.
We tried to connect using IP address, but no success. After that tried to ping that server with server name and IP address using command prompt, but got request time out error.
Hi,
I have a Visual C# WinForms app which I am accessing a SQL Server 2005 database with. On the Server, I have allowed remote connections (TCP and named pipes) and enable SQL Browser as per instructions on MSDN. The app works fine on the development machine.
Server name is <machine name>SQLEXPRESS, connecting with Windows Authentication.
Server log states that it is listening on [ 'any' <ipv4> 3153].
Server named pipe provider is ready to accept connection on [ \.pipeMSSQL$SQLEXPRESSsqlquery ].
On the client (local network), when trying to open the database I get this error still:
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)
Also on the client, I can go into the ODBC Data Source Administation, and connect to the SQL Server Database that way successfully.
What further steps can I take to allow the client to access the SQL Server?

Here are some details:
Domain = dm
Windows User = dmTestUser, member of sysadmin on SQLFL and SQLNY
SQL Server 2012 = SQLFL
SQL Server 2012 = SQLNY
Table = Product (exists in SQLNY and SQLFL)
SP = spGetProduct() (resides on SQLFL)
SQL Login = dbuser (on SQLNY, member of dbo on Product table)
I created a linked server on SQLFL pointing to SQLNY. The local server login to remote login mapping is as follows:
Local Login = dmTestUser
Remote Login = dbuser
with "Be made without security context" option selected. Run spGetProduct() to get Product records from SQLNY and populate Product table on SQLFL via the linked server.Here are tests I did:I connected to SQLFL using dmTestUser in SSMS. I manually executed the stored procedure spGetProduct() without any issues. Procedure gets Product records from SQLNY and populates the Product table on SQLFL. Everything is good.
I created a SQL Agent job called "Get NY Product" on SQLFL to execute spGetProduct(). I invoked this agent job and it executed successfully.However no data was loaded to the Product table on SQLFL. My stored procedure caught this error: Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI11" for linked server "SQLNY".
1. When sql agent job runs, which account does it use? Is the SQL Server Service or SQL Agent?I believe it's the sql agent.
2. What do I need to do to make this work?

Hi to everyone!
Here is my problem: I have SQLEXPRESS running with Windows Authentication on a "server" PC named "ASUS1", and I need to connect from a "client" PC named "Presario1", user "Mauro", connected through a peer network (I use a cross-over cable); both PCs belongs to the same workgroup named "RMT-WORK", and they can see each others shared folders without problems.
I have installed the connectivity components + Management Studio Express on Presario1, and enabled named pipes and TCP/IP protocols; then I've got SQL Browser running. I have also added the Login "Guest" on ASUS1SQLEXPRESS.
When I start Management Studio Express on Presario1 and browse for servers I can select "ASUS1" as database engine but when I try to connect I receive "Error 40: could not open a connection to SQL Server" (same result using SQLCMD); I have tried to add on ASUS1SQLEXPRESS a user "Presario1Mauro" with "CREATE LOGIN [Presario1Mauro] FROM WINDOWS" but I receive a "Windows user not found" error...
Can anyone help me?

Hi, I am working through "Sams Teach Yourself ASP Dot NET 2.0 in 24 Hours"
I am upto hour 20 where it says
Configuring an ASP.NET Website to Support Membership
To configure our website to support membership, we must launch the ASP.NET Website Administration Tool. To accomplish this, either click the ASP.NET
Configuration icon at the top of the Solution Explorer or click the Website menu's ASP.NET Configuration option. Either way will open a web browser pointed to a page through which the ASP.NET site can be configured. Figure 20.1 shows the ASP.NET Website Administration Tool.
To add user account support, click the Security link. This will take you to the Security screen shown in Figure 20.2. From this screen, you can specify the user accounts in your system, what roles for users exist, and the access rules for users.
However when I click security I get the following error message;
"There is a problem with your selected data store. This can be caused by an invalid server name or credentials, or by insufficient permission. It can also be caused by the role manager feature not being enabled. Click the button below to be redirected to a page where you can choose a new data store."
"The following message may help in diagnosing the problem: Unable to connect to SQL Server database."
If I test the provider I get this error;
"Provider Management""Could not establish a connection to the database.""If you have not yet created the SQL Server database, exit the Web Site Administration tool, use the aspnet_regsql command-line utility to create and configure the database, and then return to this tool to set the provider."
I am using MS VWD Express with MS SQL Express. I have run the 'aspnet_regsql' tool on my database which the book fails to mention and verified that the tables were created correctly. I have tried copying the MDF file directly into my 'app_data' directory but this made no difference. I have googled these errors and nothing seems to help. I can connect to the database through a 'SqlDataSource' and have had no trouble with the database in the previous sections of the book. I think it may have something to do with how I setup SQL Express or database permissions, I hope someone can help. Thanks in advance.

I recently installed VS2005 Prof edition and SQLExpress 2005 and have been teaching myself C# using the book
Microsoft Visual C# 2005 step by step.
I have done all the examples including the examples on databases without problems up to chap 27 which is trying to demonstrate adding security to a web site using the ASP.NET Web Site Administration tool.
After opening the tool and clicking on "security" the error message appears.
Unable to connect to SQL server database
As I understand it a database provider AspNetSqlProvider is supposed to create a database called ASPNET.MDF in the App_Data folder of the web site. Needless to say nothing is produced.
I have read various posts and done the following without success.
1 explicitly stated servr.exe as an exception in windows firewall
2 Run Aspnet_regsql at the command prompt. It bombs when I try to put a database name into the list box or even just click on the list box to see what it reveals. ( unfortunately I do not have the exact error but it sugested that it did not have read/write access to something
3 Added the following to my web.config
<configuration xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/.NetConfiguration/v2.0">
<appSettings/>
<connectionStrings>
<remove name="LocalSqlServer" />
<add name="LocalSqlServer" connectionString="Data Source=localhost;initial catalog=.Northwind;integrated security=true" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>

Hi Eevryone:
I seem to have corrupted my ASP.net Web Site Administration Tool some how. It worked fine a few days ago, but reloaded SQL Server 2005 Express Edition W Adv Services SP1 yesterday I can not get past the "Unable to connect to SQL Server database" error. I have run the aspnetdb.exe and created both a aspnetdb.mdf and loaded the tables to into a existing mdf. I have checked all the permissions.
So any ideas on what I am doing wrong, or can you point me to some documentation on the 'AspNetSqlProvider'
Thanks in advance, Gene

View 1 Replies View RelatedHello all,
New forum member here, and pretty new to SQL Server. My question is I'm having an impossible time trying to connect MS Access on Computer A to a database running on SQL Server 2k (SP3) on Computer B. Every time I try to create a new ODBC connection on Computer A, I get the dreaded Server Error 17 (SQL Server does not exist or access denied). I have no problems making the ODBC connection on the computer running SQL Server (Computer B).
My connection settings are as follows:
Computer A name = MAINDESKTOP
Computer B name (contains SQL Server) = HOMELAPTOP
Workgroup name = WORKGROUP
Server Properties:
Name = HOMELAPTOP
Authentication = SQL Server and Windows
Registered SQL Server Properties = Use SQL Server authentication, and I'm using a login name and password
Server Network Utility = TCP/IP network protocol enabled, with default port 1433
Server Client Network Utility = TCP/IP network, default port 1433
Under "Security", I have created a new login using SQL Server Authentication called "bradley", and have assigned a password to the new login. I've noticed that when I open the login properties dialogue, there are always more ***'s in the password field than the number of characters I originally used, but I suspect that's normal. I have assigned a database called "Costume" to "bradley", and have verified that the permission is checked on the Database Access tab for user "bradley".
Under "DatabasesCostume", I have verified that there is a user called "bradley" with the same login name and user name.
No matter what I try, I can't get Computer A to connect to Computer B's SQL Server database. I have no problems with any other types of connections (pinging, internet, file transfers).
This can't be that difficult! Any ideas?
Thank you!

I would like to setup the membership and role in web administrator tool, however, under Security section, I got the error message of "Unable to connect to SQL database".
I tried to run aspnet_regsql.exe to edit the config(C:WINDOWSMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727>aspnet_regsql.exe), however, it still shows this error message.
I am using web developer 2008 and SQL Server 2005.
Please advice me how to tackle this problem.
Thank you.
The reason I had to start a new thread was that the old thread seems to be closed. There is no "Reply" button showing.
I still have the same problem. The last post asked if I was sure I was using SQLExpress.
I only have SQLEXPress and I have never had anything else. Therefore the question becomes - Why does the system seem to think I have another version?

I have a SQL Server 2014 database that is partially contained. I am trying to connect to the database via Excel using a contained user login. When I choose Data - Other Sources - From SQL Server, I get the Data Connection Wizard window to Connect to the Server.
This window allows me to enter the server name and a User Name and Password (for SQL authentication), however it does not allow me to specify a database. When I click the Next button, I get a 'login failed' error which I assume is happening because the contained user is not a SQL login.
I have the same issue trying to create an ODBC connection using the ODBC Data Source Administrator.
Is there another way for me to connect to a SQL Server database using a contained login with Excel?

Hi all,
i have a small problem to connect SQL Native ODBC Client to a mirrored Database.
The connection goes without any problem when I connect to a primary Database, but when i give this connect string to an
ODBC Client ""Server=Partner_A; Failover Partner=Partner_B; Database=XXX; Network=dbmssocn"", then i get an connect fail.
There are no firewalls and other things on the network.
I am also able to connect to a mirror database during failover, but I'm not able to set both servers on the ODBC Connection.
Kind Regards,
Gruna

I have a login that is mapped to a Windows sysadmin account. I used it to login to Sql Server 2005. I then created a database called Freedom. I then added a Windows login and user called FreedomAdmin, with Freedom set as the default database. When I login in to Windows using FreedomAdmin and then try to login in to Sql Server 2005, I get the following error:
The server principal "FREEDOM1FreedomAdmin" is unable to access the database "master" under the current security context.
If the default database for FreedomAdmin is Freedom (and it is - I checked from my sysadmin login account), why can't I login. Must I give FreedomAdmin permissions to master?

Hey
Quick question for the experts here! Wink
We have the issue of wanting to restore an MSSQL database (.BAK) but are unable to "Connect" to the existing database; but we are able to "Start" the database currently.
When we are unable to perform a "Connect", then under "All Tasks" you don't get the option to "Restore Database"
I am hoping there is a way around this and still a possibility of doing a restore without having to do an entire install of MSSQL again and then a restore?
Thanks!
