[XXXXX] Connecting to remote server XXXXX failed with the following error message : WinRM cannot complete the operation.

plz help me... when establishing a connection to the server. when connecting to server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default setting SQL Server does not allow remote connections.(provider: Named pipes provider, error:40 - could not open a connection to sqlserver)
I am about designing an access project file that connect to a SQL Server database : it could be either on the local computer or a remote workstation, this depending on where the front end is running.
Bypassing the default log on dialog box i have set my own form that users should use to connect on adp. Then using baseconnection string i connect the adp to sql server database.
My concern is how can i check from vba if the instance of SQL Server where my back end database is located is running in order to make users knowing that due sql server service status off their connection tentative will fail.
inform u i can check same from console management however i would to automate same controle from my adp and avoid that users have to operate such task...

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:

Could someone please tell me what could be wrong on my remote computers.
I am about updating some fields with local date and time using blw API Quote Private Declare Sub GetLocalTime Lib "kernel32" (lpSystemTime As SYSTEMTIME)
Public Function LocalDateTime()
Dim MyTime As SYSTEMTIME
GetLocalTime MyTime
Debug.Print "The Local Date is:" & MyTime.wMonth & "-" & MyTime.wDay & "-" & MyTime.wYear Debug.Print "The Local Time is:" & MyTime.wHour & ":" & MyTime.wMinute & ":" & MyTime.wSecond
End Function Unquote This works fine however due to it's not really easy for an administrator to keep checking every times wheter local date and time are correctly updated for each front end users computer i would that to reconsider my function and making it to read local date and time from remote SQL Server. my concern is to help administrator to save time as he should only need to ensure that Server is running with correct time...
I just got a Virtual Dedicated Server and installed SQL Server Express 2005 on it and while I was installing choose Mix Mode authentication and setup a sa password.....
I want to connect to that database remotely from my machine using VS 2005 or Management Studio....both are encountering the same problems.....
On the Virtual Dedicated machine if I install management studio I run has no problem....it asks me for the server name : somethingSQLEXPRESS then username and password and works fine...
The same thing I try to do remotely is not happy with ....I tried to give the IP address of the server same thing no luck.....
Can somebody tell me what I'm doing wrong and where....
I have a client that has POS software called Restaurant Pro Express (RPE) from www.pcamerica.com Their old POS computer had a hardware failure, but I was able to attach the hard-drive to another computer and recover the data. RPE uses a MSSQL database system. However, my client doesn't seem to make backups very often - the last one is dated January 5, 2015.
I was able to copy the C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server folder over which contained the instance as well as all the data files - and has up-to-date information. The instance in the recovered Microsoft SQL Server folder was called MSSQL.1. I installed the RPE software on their new computer, and it too now has an instance called MSSQL10_50.PCAMERICA. The new computer is using MSSQL 2008 R2, while I believe the old computer would have been using MSSQL 2005.
I've developed an application that connects to a SQL Server 2005 Express database. I created a DSN to connect to the database through ODBC. Currently, I am testing locally and everything works fine.
I would now like to install my application on another workstation and connect remotely to the database located on my development machine.
The client workstation does not have SQL Server 2005 Express installed on it because I would just like my application to connect remotely by creating the DSN and using ODBC. What I'm missing here are the database drivers. The "SQL Natice Client" is not available on this client workstation. How can I deploy the necessary drivers with my installation file so that I may create the required DSN name using the SQL Native Client driver?
I am backing up my all the databases (around 50 servers and 500 database) using scheduled jobs. I backup my transaction log files at every two hours of interval and databases on daily basis.
I have set option of "Write to Windows Application Event Log" - When job fails during the creation of job in the "Notification Tab" of Create New Job.
As per documentation SQL server automatically records some of the events to windows application event log. After succesful completion of Log backup and DB backup, event gets logged in Windows Application Event Log. And when job fails, I get two events logged in the Windows Application Event Log file, one due to my setting and other automatically by SQL Server.
Due to this Windows event log file is growing much faster and I have to clear it in every 3-4 days.
My quesiton - Is there a way such that to get only failures event logged in Windows Application event log file and any successful backup jobs should not go to Windows application event file?
Can any suggest some idea what should I do?
I am using SQL Server 2000 with SP3 on Windows 2000 Advanced server. Some of my databases are still using Version 7.0/6.5 on NT.
I have a question regarding ASP.NET 2.0 reading available packages (calling "GetDtsServerPackageInfos" on the "Application"-Object which returns "Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.PackageInfos") from a remote SSIS server (not running them). It seems to me that I am experiencing either a security/delegation issue or that I am trying to do something that is not possible...
The setup is the following.
I have two machines, A and B. A runs IIS 6/ASP.NET 2.0 and B runs SQL Server and SSIS. They belong to the same domain. IIS runs the application pool with the webapplication in question under the "Network Service" account and A is trusted for delegation to B. At the moment its trusted when using Kerberos and for MSSQLSrvc and rpcss; but I tried "all" and many more as well.
I configured IE to use Windows Authentication and set the URL to belog to the Intranet (to enable kerberos authentication).
My ASP.NET webapplication now tries to read (in the sense explained above) the available packages on the SSIS machine (B). The packages are stored on the filesystem, not in mdsb. But I feel that this does not matter, since ASP.NET is accessing them through "the SSIS service" which can access packages in msdb or/and on the filesystem?
What happens now is that
a) everything works, when I fire up IE on A and access the webapplication. The user I have on A is a local admin. b) I get "E_ACCESSDENIED" when I start IE as regular User on A c) I get "E_ACCESSDENIED" when I access the webapplication from any other machine than A (IE6 or IE7)
My main question is: is it possible to do what I want to do? The other question is, why does everything work when I access the webapplication from A, but not from any other machine? The second thing makes me think it could be a delegation issue (double hop and SSIS don't seem to go togethe too well). But still, I could not find any resource telling me that this is impossible And frankly, I do not fully understand delegation and/or Kerberos.
I would greatly appreciate if anybody had a pointer or something for me. Regards scherand
Btw: Thanks to Caddre for his (her?) first help and pointing me to this forum.
I want to deploy my database application to my client's computer. My application uses SQL Server 2014. My client has to run that software on a single PC. I was looking to download a lightweight version of SQL Server that can fulfill my requirements, so when I was looking for SQL Server downloads, I saw these files there, which file should I use in my situation
I'm writing a C# application which connects to a local SQL database for data access. The application connects to SQL Server through windows authentication, but opens up the port and sqlbrowser to others on the network wanting to access the database through SQL Server authentication, and also allows remote users to connect to this server remotely if they have the login and password (and because the port is already open)
I understand this is not secure and open to attack, and am unsure of how to secure these processes without blocking these three types of access, from A.) the local user, B.) the network user and C.) the remote user across the net.
Have researched this a fair bit, but get somewhat lost amongst all the jargon.
I created SP and enabled db_datareader and db_datawriter for roles for BUILTINUsers on database level.
I can call that SP from my application if I am accessing DB from my app running on the same machine. If I run app on other machine SP throw exception related to lack of permission.
I fixed that by enabling db_owner roles for BUILTINUsers. But it is not good fix from security point of view.
My question is: is there any other way to allow regular user to run that SP by not giving him db_owner privileges?
Also I have to mention that my SP procedure has some dynamic SQL code.
I'm attempting to connect to an SQL Server Express database from a remote PC, but it isn't connecting. I have a user account created in the database, and I'm using the SQL authentication with that user account. I have success with this if I'm on the server that the database is on, but not remotely. Both are on the same network, even plugged into the same hub. There doesn't appear to be any network problems.
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 ?
I'moving my asp application to a new hosting server.
So when i tried the setup locally with the live DB & application in my test machine... The DB access is denied when application tries to hit the DB.
DB is in seperate machine with SQL Server 2000 & application(ASP) is in Windows server 2003..... Kindly help me with your suggestions....on what went wrong?
Im not really sure how complicated this is but we shall see. Im running a .exe compiled from 4GL which accesses the database. But when I run a trace on the database no application name is picked up. Does anyone know how SQL profiler finds the application name or what is required in the .exe file for SQL profiler to see the application name?
This would be a great help if anyone has any information.
I want to know if there is an event in profiler can catch web application name. If yes, which one? For example, there is SP named sp_storedprocedure that is called by www.web.com and www.web.com/forumdisplay.php?f=23. I want create a profiler trace that can catch www.web.com or www.web.com/forumdisplay.php?f=23 calling sp_storedprocedure. Any suggestion is great appreciated.
Please bare with me as I do not have much knowledge in this area with MSSQL.
I have installed MSSQL 2000 Developer and I have setup a database which I am able to connect to and work fine with from the actual server MSSQL is installed on.
The problem comes in when i try to connect to that same database from a different remote server. It will not connect to the DB from this remote server but I know all the connection information is correct so its something on the MSSQL DB server causing this and not on this remote server.
Someone I know has had this problem and has fixed it but they wont tell me how. All I know is they said something about manually opening the ports on the MSSQL server and he also said when you set it to dynamicly determine the port that MSSQL is listening on it errored out. however if you set it staticly to 1433 it worked fine.
Ive also installed SP4 in attempt to fix this but no luck with that either. And I can also get the same exact remote server to connect to completely different DB server without issues.
If anyone can please help walk me through this I would be greatly appreciate and I am also willing to pay some money if it will make my life easier.
we have sql 2005 standard edition. i was trying ( unsuccessfully ) to configure RAS on server 2003 to allow the server to authentificate vpn requests. i don't know how but the next day people started complaining about their mapped network drives being disconnected, and now no one can connect to the database via the network, eventhough they still have access to the server, and the network drives were remapped.
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?
is there any way to execute a SSIS package at the SQL Server programatically from a remote computer? (I use .net 2)
I don't need variables or return values, I only want to start the package. I know that it is easier to do that job with a webservice etc on the SQL Server but I cannot use such.
A method to call a package from a stored procedure would also help me a lot
I have 2 xp machines one has the SQL EXPRESS Server with all the goodies on it and the other I just install the client stuff. I am using VB 6 to program with using the ADO. It works great on the server machine. The software pulls up great. I can't seem to get it to work on the client machine. I get "Login failed for user 'TIGGERLGuest'. I found the places to set the TCPIP setings on the server SQL Express to allow this even turned on the browser but nothing same error. I am using the same login on both machines and am pointed to the same workgroup. I used window authentication when I set them up. Not sure why it insists on using Guest.
This is a copy of the connection string I am using
hi every one. i am a new user of asp.net 2.0 using C# code and i am facing a problem in accessing a SQL Server2005 database file in the remote computer. i have connected two pc with peer to peer connection and trying to add a databse using the "Add connection" option from the visual studio 2005. in the add connection dialog box it is showing me the remote server and it was supposed to show all the database in that SQL Server when i select one. but when i am choosing the server name it was not showing me anything. by the way i have configuered the surface area for "both TCP/IP and named pipes" and both the pc's server browser is turned on. is it the right way to access a database file from a remote pc or not?? please send me a good solution to do this things and try to explain the codes with example. waiting for response....plz send me the solution.. as soon as possible
Hi all. I am a bit new to SQL but I have studied much info, BOL, various best practices and so on. The problem is - I cannot find any tutorial which could tell me step by step how to set SQL server on a PC and connect to it from another computer (they all are on a domain). So I decided that I am doing something wrong...
I have done the following (all is done on virtual PCs): 1.I have installed a virtual PC with windows 2003, which acts as a domain controller.
2.I installed Win2003 on a second PC and added it to the domain. Installed MS SQL Server 2005 and SP2 on it. Server uses Windows auth. and all the services are running from a dedicated domain account which I added on the first PC.
I added a domain account (let's call it USER_X) to the SQL server Security/Logins
Everything is OK locally, I can connect to the server using USER_X from the same PC.
3.I installed Win2003 on a second PC and added it to the domain. Installed MS SQL Server 2005 client componenst, SSMS and SP2 on it. Logged on as USER_X. And tried to connect to the PC number 2. And failed. SSMS gives an error (1396) Named pipes error "Could not open a connection to SQL server". But the server appears on the list if I click Server name->Browse for more->Network servers. Why I cannot connect to it if I see it? Tried to enable Windows and SQL auth, created a pure SQL user USER_Y, checked locally - ok, can connect. But cannot connect as USER_Y from the third PC.
Finally 4.I installed Win2003 on a fourth PC (did not add it to the domain). Installed MS SQL Server 2005 and SP2 on it. Server uses Windows and SQL auth. Enabled Windows and SQL auth, again created a pure SQL user USER_Y, checked locally - ok, can connect. And checked connection from the third PC - I can connect fine as SQL USER_Y to the SQL server on a PC which is not on the domain but cannot connect as SQL USER_Y to the SQL server on a PC which is on the domain!
What am I doing wrong? How to connect from a PC on a domain to another SQL server on the same domain? It is just a basic config which (I think) SQL admins have gone through many times but I am stuck.
Help, please! I hope to hear from someone who has installed SQL server on a domain and successfully created remote connections.
When I try to access a SQL Server report on the localhost that I have deployed, I get a message that "under default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections." After doing a little bit of searching, I went to the SQL Server Surface Area Connection and changed the server instance to allow for local and remote connections of both TCP/IP and named pipes. I stopped and restarted the service. Even after doing this I still get the same error.
If the Surface Area Configuration can't help out in this situation, what else would need to be modified?
