SQL Server 2005 Remote Connectivity
Feb 13, 2007
I am an application developer with an existing system developer in SQL Server 2005 Express and Visual Studio 2005.
I have installed the system I wrote at a physician's office, and it is working fine on a local computer utilizing XP operating system.
There is a requirement to allow other terminals to connect to this XP terminal to execute the application, so I am exploring possibilities for connecting remotely from the other computers in the physician's office.
I am running Virtual Machine for my client computer.
I modified SQL Server 2005 on my main computer. I enabled both TCP/IP and Named pipes in the SQL Server Surface Area Configuration utility. I also set SQL Server Browser to start automatically.
The local application is successfully connecting with the following connectionstring: Data Source=localhostsqlexpress;Initial Catalog=MedicalDB;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=sa;Password=thepassword
I realize that I would have to substitute the server name for localhost before I could connect from the application, but I wanted to first "connect" to the database from my second machine successfully before I began trying to connect from my application. I can Ping the pc that is running sql server express, I am able to "telnet" my pc that is running SQL Server Express.
Both my computers are in the same workgroup and there is no domain.
There are no aliases in my configuration, and there is no encryption on the server.
Ther error message I recieve is:
Cannot connect to DDD
An error has occurred while attempting connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (providor: Named Pipes Providor, Error: 40 Could not open a conneciton to Sql Server) (Microsofi SQL Server, Error: 1326)

We are in web site development company,Previously we don't have proxy configuration, after implementing Proxy , we have an issue to connect a remote database.
The error pops "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. Error 53".

I'm setting up a simple SSRS implementation for a non-profit organization, using two servers hosted at a data center. The first server has SQL Server Standard Edition and Reporting Services installed. I've designed and deployed a number of useful reports on this server.
I was hoping to isolate this first server by installing IIS and SSRS on the second server, have users browse from the Internet to that second server (over SSL, of course), and have all reports served up from databases (and, presumably, the report server database) on the first server.
During the installation of SSRS on the second server, however, I'm being prompted to specify the service account. According to the help text:
"Reporting Services. Service accounts are used to configure a report server database connection. Choose a domain user account if you want to connect to a report server database on a remote SQL Server instance. If you are using a local report server database, you can use a domain user account or Local System to run the service."
I believe I want to configure SSRS to connect to a report server database on a remote SQL Server instance; therefore, it appears that I need to enter a domain user account. The only problem is, neither server belongs to a domain; they are members of a simple two-server workgroup.
Does SSRS, configured to connect to a report server database on a remote SQL Server instance, require a domain? Does what I'm hoping to accomplish require a domain? Creating a two-server domain seems like overkill for this implementation, doesn't it?
I appreciate any comments and suggestions. Thanks!

Hello
I'm having a problem with the server connection and my C# code. The code executes alright but no data is entered into the database behind it. I'm pasting the connection code over here as well. The sql commands are used in the code. I think I used the sql server mobile edition which is installed along with visual studio.net 2005. Anyone know what's wrong, and can help me out? Thanks in advance.public static void storeInDb(string trackName, string artist, string albumTitle, string year, string path, uint[] fp)
{
string connStr="Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename='"+path+"\Data\ACI.mdf';Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True";SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(connStr);
conn.Open();string sql = "INSERT INTO Clip(Song, Artist, Album, Year) VALUES('" + trackName;sql = sql + "','" + artist + "','" + albumTitle + "','" + year + "')";
SqlCommand cmd = new SqlCommand(sql, conn);
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
sql="SELECT max(ClipID) FROM Clip";
cmd = new SqlCommand(sql, conn);int id = Int32.Parse(cmd.ExecuteScalar().ToString());for (int i = 0; i < fp.Length; i++)
{
sql="INSERT INTO Hash VALUES ("+id+","+(i+1)+","+(int)fp[i]+")";cmd = new SqlCommand(sql, conn);
cmd.ExecuteNonQuery();
}
conn.Close();

Yesterday, at 7 am, I was able to connect to remote databases from Enterprise Manager. Then at 11 am, I started getting "General Network Error" and connections failed. This happened on all my remote databases, so the problem is not the remote server. (I did check.) I have Comcast Broadband cable access to the internet. I can still access the internet, email, and ftp servers, just not the sql port. I rebooted my entire system several times. Today, I took my computer to a friend's house, and was able to successfully connect to the remote databases fom Enterprise Manager, so the problem is not on my computer. (I did check for the sql worm, and downloaded the McAfee Fix program, but it didn't find anything, and confirmed that the Service Pack 3 fixes were in place.)
I also tried connecting directly to my cable modem, but that did not work, so it doesn't seem to be my router or firewall. I contacted Comcast and they are not blocking port 1433. I don't know what else to try. I don't think the problem is on my computer or the software.
Any Help would be greatly appreciated!

I have an application which is under development in VS 2005 but the database is in SQL Server 2000. We are facing some strange problem with the connectivity between VS 2005 - SQL Server 2000.
I have tried all the possible ways or solutions i found when searching in google but unable to find a solution.This had become a major challenge for us now to identifiy the root cause of the problem
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)"
Please suggest.

I have an application which uses ADO to connect to Database. DSN name is specified in the connection string used by ADO as part of the application logic.
This application is working perfectly fine when it is run from a Windows 2003 Enterprise Edition (EE) Server and successfully connects to a remote MSSQL 2005 EE Database installed in another Windows 2003 EE Server.
This application is working perfectly fine also when it is run from a Windows 2003 Standard Edition (SE) Server and successfully connects to the local MSSQL 2005 EE Database installed in the same Server.
But this application FAILS to work when it is run from the Windows 2003 SE Server and connecting to the remote MSSQL 2005 EE Database installed in Windows 2003 EE Server. Error returned to the Application has this description: "Provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server"
Can somebody give me more insights into the problem and help me in overcoming the issues in the last scenario?
Thanks.

hai,
I am working on ASP.NET 2003 with SQLServer2000. My application requires to be connected to the Database which is there in my Headoffice.
My SQLServerName is "MyDBServerTestDB"
Database Name is "WebTO", UserID="******" and Password="******"
My Remote Server IP Address is "192.168.1.2" and its Static IP is "58.93.61.235"
I have specified the Connection string for my Remote Server as
"Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Server=58.93.61.235TestDB;UID=******;PWD=******;Database=WebTO"
(or)
"Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Server=58.93.61.235TestDB,1433;UID=******;PWD=******;Database=WebTO" (1433 is the Port number of the Remote SQLServer)
but it is giving the error " SQL Server does not exist or access denied".
if i execute the same application at my Headoffice (Remote Server) by changing the Connection string as
"Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Server=192.168.1.2TestDB;UID=******;PWD=******;Database=WebTO"
then, it is working fine.
Can anyone tell me where i went wrong or what i have to specify in my Connection string so that i can access my Remote Database Server.
Thanks in Advance,
Srinivas.

We have an OLD vbscript process that is running on a Windows 2000 box. The box has Sql Server 7.0 on it (not sure if relevant). The process used to hit a Sql Server 2000 database, but that database was recently migrated to 2005 (on different server). Now the connection string obviously no longer works, and we can't even add a DSN to 2005 (does not recognize new server). The machine pings the new SQL server without any problem, but cannot connect for data access.
I assume there should be some driver that I can install to fix this, but have yet to find one on the web. Does anyone have a recommended download to remedy this?
Thanks in advance.

Hi all
I am trying to connect to an AS400 to download data to a 64bit sql server 2005 server. I am able to do this easily by migrating existing sql2000 DTS packages but how do i do this is in an SSIS project creating the process from scratch? and how do i incorporate activex transforms like you could in DTS2000 into the trasnform with copy columns?
Please help i am slowly turning grey trying to get this to work.
thanks

We recently moved from SQL 2k to SQL 2K5 and existing application stopped working with following error message.
[DBNETLIN][ConenctionOpen (SECCreateCredentials()).]SSL Security error.
The code used to make connection is as below.
Option Explicit
Const NewConnStr = "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Persistant Security=False;User ID=%DBUser;Password=%DBPassword;Initial Catalog=%DBName;Data Source=%DBServer,%DBPort;Network Library=dbmssocn"
Dim oConn
Dim sConnStr
Dim sServer
sServer = "SQLSERV01"
Set oConn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
On Error Resume next
sConnStr = Replace(Replace(Replace(Replace(Replace(NewConnStr, "%DBUser", "test1"), "%DBPassword", "test1"), "%DBName", "model"), "%DBServer", sServer), "%DBPort", "1433")
Call oConn.Open(sConnStr)
This script runs under stripped-down Windows enviornment (Windows PE) with very basic components (i.e. no GUI, only command-line interface). I am trying to find out if there is any client side setting to bypass "self-generated SSL ceritificate" on server. I have tried all things on server side from disabling shared memory protocol, setting "Force Encryption" property etc. Could somebody help me with name of this property?
Also, is it possible to not use self-generate certificate on server. We don't want any kind of encryption for SQL connections.
Thanks..

Hello,
I am attempting to connect directly to an instance of sql 2005 from the VS Pocket PC emulator running Mobile 5.0. I have installed AtiveSync 4.0 and successfully cradled the device to establish connectivity to the internet. I have also successfully browsed to the IP of the server that i is running sql 2005. I am able to populate a datagrid via a stored procedure resultset which accepts no parameters. When attempting to pass variables into a stored procedure a SqlException was thrown stating that the procedure excpects these parameters. I have successfully built the app and ran the executable from my local machine and successfully passed these parameters to the procedures. I dont know what the problem could be. Any help would be of great assistance, this problem has halted productivity.
/**********Connection string
Persist Security Info=False;Integrated Security=False;Server=192.168.0.200,1234;Initial Catalog=BatchScan;User ID=BatchScanServerUser;Password=B4uBaTch*uSc@n
TCP/IP protocols are successfully configured on sql 2005 with dynamic ports disabled and all ips using port 1234
Thank you in advance.

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?

My site works fine in VWD2008 express, but I get this error when I try to use it on my live website.
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.
According to this article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/914277 I am supposed to:
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.

Hello Friends:
My problem relates to backing up my MS SQL 2005 database which is sitting on a shared server at a hosting company.
OVERVIEW:
- Hosting company is using MS SQL 2005
- I am using the SQL Server Management Studio that comes with SQL Server 2005 Standard (NOT Express), which is installed on MY PC.
- So, I am connecting to the SQL server over the internet
WHAT I WANT TO ACHIEVE:
- I would like to backup the data sitting on the Hosting company's MS SQL Server. I only have one database on this SQL Server. There are of course 100s of other databases on the same server which belong to other customers of the hosting company.
- I want to bring the backup to MY PC, from the SQL Server.
- As far as I can tell the following options within SQL Server Management Studio may be of help to me. I do not know which one I should use or which one is best or what is the proper method. 1) Select Backup option from the Tasks menu (but it only shows me drives/devices on the Hosting SQL Server, not my PC, so I can’t backup to my PC) 2) Export Data (it does not work, showing errors ‘…not a trusted connection…’ I have no clue what a trusted connection is. 3) Copy Database (which is supposed to copy the remote database on the Hosting company SQL server, to my local SQL Server running on my PC). I go through the wizard, on the last screen it just hangs i.e. shows- not responding)
MY QUESTION TO THE COMMUNITY:
How do I backup the database sitting on the hosting company SQL server? I of course need to bring the backup to my PC.

Thanks.

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

I have an application developed by VB.NET 2005, and I need to install the Data base on a server to allow the clients access the data base from thier own computers, i need to allow all the functions on that data base (Insert, Update, and Delete).
I tried to do it by installing the SQL Server on a computer named (PC1) and the application on a computer named (PC2), and they are connected to the same subnet, I need to know what are the properties that I should do on the SQL Server in order to be visible through PC1 to make the connection string? And does the authintication mode affect the process?? whether it is Windows authintication or SQL Server Authintication??
Note: I am using SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition.
Thanking you in advance..

This has probably been answered before, but...
I have a local SQL Server 2005 instance running, and I would like to have another user on my network connect to this instance. However, when he tries to connect, he always receives the same error message:
"An error has occured 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 28: - Server doesnt' support requested protocol)"
So, I checked the properties for the server, and under the connections tab the allow remote connection box is checked.
Any clue where to look next?

Hello ,
The problem is that we are having Problem while making the remote Connection to the Sql Server 2005
Basically We are having a problem connecting to SQL2005 through a package remotely. when we try to connect to a remote data base, we get the following error
[Connection manager "CRA LRRS Development DB"] Error: An OLE DB error has occurred. Error code: 0x80004005. An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "Login timeout expired". An OLE DB record is available. Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client" Hresult: 0x80004005 Description: "An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.

Although by running the configuration manager on the Remote DataBase System we have enable the Remote Connections through name and IP both but still it cant access it.
Please tell us the possible consequences and provide us the feedback.
I will be really obliged if any of you can provide us the feedback on it as soon as possible.
Thanking You,
Yours Sincerely,

Hello,
I have been unable to create a replication from an SQL Server 2005 standard edition database to remote SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. The remote express edition is on a Virtual Private Server we are leasing from a hosting company. The name of the remote DB is similar to vs572.si-vs572.com. I can connect to this with SQL server authentication through Management Studio and also with SSIS. But, I have been unable to create a push subscription (I have tried a test push subscription with the same publication to a local SQL Express server here in our office and this works fine).
Here is the error message: SQL Server Replication requires the actual server name to make a connection to the server. Connections through server alias, IP address, or any other alternate name are not supported. Specify the actual server name, 'VS572SQLEXPRESS'.
The hosting company had originally installed a shared SQL server which would not support replication. They then installed SQL Express edition and I was hoping this would allow us to run a replication.
I tried to connect to VS572SQLEXPRESS with out any luck. I check the remote connections, made sure replication was installed, etc., but no luck.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
Albert

I am developing a windows application that needs to communicate with a remote SQL server 2005 database. Server allows remote connections and MSDTC service also running. Do I need to run MSDTC service on the client machine where I use desktop application ? any ideas ? It's throwing some error like
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.
But my SQL Server allows remote connection, and I am able to do a select statement.
But when I insert/update anything, it's throwing this error. I guess some problem with MSDCT. Anybody have any idea ?
