SQL Express 2005 Remote Connection With VWD 2005 Express
Jun 22, 2006
Hi all,
Just wondering if SQL 2005 express edition can be connected remotely. I've set up SQL 2005 Express on a separate machine and am having trouble connecting to it from VWD when creating the websites.
Currently I've set up ASP.NET 2.0 Framework on the remote machine with IIS6 using Windows Server 2003 Web Edition. And I am directly editing the website remotely on the server machine from my PC. Could someone please help me in setting up a remote connection from VWD to the SQL Server?
I've enabled TCP/IP setting in the SQL Configuration Manager but still getting errors. Could this be an issue with Express Edition? Because if it is I also have a copy of SQL Server 2005 to install. Any direction to resolve in this issue would be greatly appreciated.
PS. I'm new to this so pls bear with me. Thanks.

Hi all,
I have SQL Server Express and VB 2005 Express installed in a Microsoft Windows XP Pro PC that is a terminal PC in our office Network. My Network Administrator has granted my terminal PC for Administrator Use. I tried to do the ADO.NET 2.0-VB 2005 programming in my terminal PC and I could not get a remote connection in the Window Form Application via Window Authorization. I do not know how to make this kind of remote connection in my Network. Please help and advise.
Thanks in advance,

Hi,
I have written a database application using .mdf in visual studio 2005 using vb.net (Windows XP sp2)
The app runs fine on the local machine. But I want to access the database from another computer (remote connection)
My Questions:
1. How to host the database file (mydb.mdf) on server machine?
2. How does connection string change on the client side?
Any other idea?
THanks!!

Good day.
I am trying to look at a friends database that they have developed. Not having used SQL Server Express before I am experiencing problems trying to remotely connect to their database.
He connects locally just fine of course.
I get the error message about remote connectionsand the default settings so I have enabled TCP/IP and Named Pipes as well as cleared SQLSERVER Express in my firewall settings. I also stopped and restarted the service, but still get the same error message.
My connection parameters are like:
Server type: Database Engine
Server name: http://sql.exampledatabase.net (should http be here? have tried with and without same error)
Authentication: SQL Server Authentication (windows authentication? If so, how do I change to such?)
Login: http://username (should http be here? have tried with and without same error)
Password: password
TITLE: Connect to Server
------------------------------
Cannot connect to http://sql.exampledatabase.net
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. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 53)
Any help would be much appreciated.

I have Microsoft SQL express server 2005 setup on one server and I have a website setup on another server, I am trying to get some data from the SQL server on the other one.
I am currently 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: TCP Provider, error: 0 - A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.) I have done plenty of searching on Google, and already been through the tutorial on changing the setting in ‘SQL Server 2005 Surface Area Configuration’ to allow remote connections
http://blogs.msdn.com/sqlexpress/archive/2005/05/05/415084.aspxhttp://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;914277
It works perfectly when I call data from my local machine.
Also I don’t know if it is a timeout issue, because I tested in on two other servers I have access to and it worked on one of them.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

I followed the steps outlined in a blog I found to setup SS2005 express for remote connections. Everything appeared to go smooth until I actually tried to logon ;)
I have Sql Server 2005 Express installed on my WinXP PRO machine at home (no domain). I have opened the ports on the firewall, etc.
When I try and login from the SQLCMD command line tool I get a Login Failed error. Here is the connection string that I'm trying to use:
SQLCMD -S **.***.**.*SQLEXPRESS -U Steve -P MyPassword
The error:
Login failed for user 'Steve'.
When I use Management Studio Express on the same machine running Sql Server, it shows the User name: NEVERSTILLSteve
'NEVERSTILL' is the name of my computer.
If I try and use that same username with a remote connection I get the same error.
I have googled for the error and msg code, but nothing fitting my situation is coming up.
Anyone have any ideas for me?

Hello,
2 weeks ago, I installed a SQL Server 2005 Express on one of my computer. I fought to configure the remote access, but finnaly it did work.
Yesterday I had to move my server on another computer and I've never succeeded in configuring the remote access. I don't understand why it is so complicated to install remote access.
I explain you what I did, and if you could say me what i missed, it could be amazing !!
I install SQL Server 2005 Express including the SQL Server Management Studio Express.
I went to the SQL Server surface area configuration and i enable Remote Access (TCP) and turn on the SQL Browser
I enabled Server authentication => SQL Server and Windows Authentication mode.
I created users with all the permission i can give to them.
I restart one million time all the services and nothing...I tried to connect to the database using my local Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express, using the Visual studio Sever Explorer and with C# script using this connection string :
sConnectionString = " Server=myIP\SQLEXPRESS; Initial Catalog='myDatabase'; user id = myLogin; password = myPassword";
And I've never succeeded in connecting, I have always the same 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: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)which means the database is not reached.
Please tell me i've just missed a stupid thing.

Hey all!
I've tried all I know in an effort to get SQL 2005 Express to allow remote connections on my customer's 2K3 server and I'm not having any luck. I've followed MSKB 914277, including adding the exceptions to their Windows firewall...even disabled the firewall altogether (for testing purposes), and I still can't get remote clients to connect. As suggested by various other posts, I used netstat -an to confirm that SQL is listening on port 1433 for the desired IP on the server.....and saw that it is listening. Here's a snippet:
TCP 192.168.0.2:1433 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING
TCP 192.168.0.2:1433 192.168.0.2:1738 ESTABLISHED
TCP 192.168.0.2:1738 192.168.0.2:1433 ESTABLISHED
TCP 127.0.0.1:1433 0.0.0.0:0 LISTENING
I can connect to the database locally (i.e. on the 2K3 server itself) using just the IP address .... tried with a DSN, UDL, ODBC, and SSMSE...all of which have no problems (as shown by the two, "ESTABLISHED" entries in the netstat results above which were from running SSMSE locally on the server at the time of the netstat). But if a remote computer on the network tries to connect, they cannot connect. Sorry, I don't have a copy of the error message the clients are getting yet.
I asked The customer's IT to confirm that the clients CAN can "see" the server (i.e. that there wasn't some kind of router or firewall blocking their path) and they sent me a copy of the server's pfirewall.log file. Here is an entry from the file that seems to show that client requests ARE getting to the server:
2007-12-17 19:12:13 OPEN-INBOUND TCP 192.168.0.4 192.168.0.2 1213 1433 - - - - - - - - -
2007-12-17 19:12:13 CLOSE TCP 192.168.0.2 192.168.0.4 1433 1213 - - - - - - - - -
I'm starting to get in over my head here (I'm a programmer, not a DBA or Net Admin), but doesn't the above suggest that an incoming request came in from .4 on port 1213 and attempted to connect to .2 on port 1433, but the connection was denied or dropped by the server? If so, why? Is this related to another MS KB I read about connection pooling? I'm way over my head here and could use some help. Did I miss something subtle during configuration of SQL Express?
Thanks in advance.

I'M HAVING AN ISSUE, UNDERSTANDING, THE CONNECTION STRING.
I WANT TO CONNECT TO AN INSTANCE OF SQLEXPRESS ON A REMOTE SERVER WITH A FIXED IP ADDRESS
THE TCP PORT IS OPEN TO 1433
I OPENED THE PORT ON THE ROUTER AND THE WINDOWS 2003 FIREWALL
MY CODE IS AS FOLLOWS:
S = "Provider=SQLNCLI;"
S = S & "DATA SOURCE=44.66.777.888,1433SQLEXPRESS;"

CnMgt.Open S
I'VE FOLLOWED THE STEPS OUTLINED IN ARTICLE 914277
CAN SOMEONE HELP?
THANK YOU
PS. IF THE CLIENT IS LOCAL, I HAVE NO ISSUE OPENING THE DATABASE.
I DO NEED TO OPEN THE DB FROM FROM CLIENTS.

Hi all,
In my office computer network system (LAN), my Windows XP Pro PC has SQL Server Express and VB 2005 Express installed and I was granted to have the Administrator priviledge to access SQL Server Express. I tried to create a SQLCLR project in my terminal PC.
1) I tried to set up a remote connection to SQL Server Express in the following way: SQL Server EXpress => SQL Server Surface Area Configuration. In the Surface Area Configuration for Service and Connection - local, I clicked on Remote Connection of Database Engine, SQLEXPRESS and I had a "dot" on "Local and remote connections" and "Using TCP/IP only". Then I clicked on "Apply" and "OK" buttons. Then I went to restart my database engine in SQL Server Management. When I went to check SQL Server 2005 Surface Area Configuration, I saw the arrow is pointing to "Service", not to "Remote Connections"!!!??? Is it right/normal? Please comment on this matter and tell me how I can have "Remote Connecton" on after I selected it.
2) After I restarted the database engine (I guess!!), I executed the following project code (copied from a book) in my VB 2005 Express:

Troubleshooting tips:
Store application data in isolated storage.
When deploying an Office solution, check to make sure you have fulfilled all necessary requirments.
Use a certificate to obtain the required permission(s).
If an assembly implementing the custom security references other assemblies, add the referenced assemblies to the full trust assembly list.
Get general help for the exception.
I am a new Microsoft VS.NET Express user to do the SQL Server 2005 Express and VB 2005 Express programming by using the example of a tutorial book. Please help and tell me what is wrong in my SQLCLR sep-up and project coding and how to correct the problems.
Many Thanks in advance,

Hi,
I want to make a component library in Visual Basic.NET and connect to a remote Sql Server. When I create a new DataSet with the wizard, I can only connect to a .mdf file, but not to a Sql Server. With Visual Web Developer I can connect to a Sql server. What is the difference between these enviroments ? How can I do the same with Visual Basic.NET ?
Thanks in advance.

I downloaded SQL Server 2005 Express and some sample databases (incl. Adventureworks_data.mdf), but when I try to Add Connection in VS 2005 to point to this db and use the Test Connection button, it gives the 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.

---------------------------
I've tried setting the data source as either "Microsoft SQL Server Database File" or "Microsoft SQL Server", but get the same error.
Any tips on verifying SQL Srv Express is installed correctly? Any ideas on how to solve this problem?
Thanks in advance.

Hi,
I'm trying to learn some VB programming with the VB 2005 Express Absolute Beginner Series video tutorials (which I think is great) and have come across a problem that I can't solve.
When I follow the instructions in Lesson 9 (Databinding Data to User Interface Controls) my application will display the data from the database correctly and I can edit it (and as long as the debugger is running the data remains changed). However, the changes won't propagate back to the database. I don't get any error messages but after I edit the data, save (with the save button on the BindingNavigator toolbar), and end debugging the data in my database remains unchanged. When I use a MessageBox to show how many rows where edited/updated in the
Me.myTableTableAdapter.Update(Me.myDatabaseDataSet.myTable)
I get the correct number back. I'm sure the problem is not due to coding errors since I've also tried running the accompanying Lesson 9 project file that can be downloaded from MSDN and the problem persists.
I'm using Windows XP SP2, SQL Server 2005 Express Edition and VB 2005 Express Edition. I've tried installing SQL Server 2005 Express with a number of different settings, including default settings, but it doesn't make any difference.
Would greatly appreciate any feedback on this as I'm keen to resolve this problem so I can get on with the next tutorial lesson.
Thanks,
Ieyasu

This problem only occurs after deployment, not when debugging. In the table I am having a problem with I have an ID field designated as the primary key with the identity increment set to 1 and the identity seed set to 1. There is no data in the table when deployed. I can add records to the datagridview control but when I try updating the dataset I get this error indicating that the ID field already has a value of 1 present. If I close the application and re-start it, the exception no longer occurrs when I update the dataset. I am including the code to update the tables incase something is wrong there. Any suggestions?
Private Sub UpdateMemberTable()
Me.Validate()
Me.TblMembersBindingSource.EndEdit()
Me.TblMembersTableAdapter.Update(Me.ChurchFamilyDataSet.tblMembers)
Me.TblMemberDependentsBindingSource.EndEdit()
Me.TblMemberDependentsTableAdapter.Update(Me.ChurchFamilyDataSet.tblMemberDependents)
Me.TblMemberContributionsBindingSource.EndEdit()
Me.TblMemberContributionsTableAdapter.Update(Me.ChurchFamilyDataSet.tblMemberContributions)

When I installed VS 2005, it installed the default version of SQL Server 2005 Express that ships with Visual Studio 2005 installer media.
How can apply SQL Server 2005 Express SP1 to update this existing instance?
Currently, if I run this query:
SELECT @@version
I get the following:
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.1399.06 (Intel X86) Oct 14 2005 00:33:37 Copyright (c) 1988-2005 Microsoft Corporation Express Edition on Windows NT 5.1 (Build 2600: Service Pack 2)
After applying SP1, I should get 9.00.2047.00.
Should I just go to this link and download & install the SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP1:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/sql/download/

I am currently using a Microsoft Access (MDB) for my application. But I am looking at allowing other users on the network access the same database -- I know a Microsoft Access database is not the best solutuon for this enviroment.
I'd like to use SQL Server 2005 Express in this case. I am very fimilular with SQL Server 2000 Std/Ent editions. My question is, can I use the free SQL Server 2005 Express edition and allow remote users to connect to that database? Or is it supposed to only be used as a local database accessed by only the machine it's installed on?
Thanks,

I've developed an asp.net 2.0 web app with vs 2005 and am using a SQL Server 2005 Express database. The app works fine locally, but after uploading to the remote web server the following error occures:
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)
How do I go about granting remote connections to SQL Server Express?
Does the web server have to have SQL Server Express installed in order to run apps that utilize SQL Server 2005 Express databases?
Do I grant access locally on my machine or do I have to be on the web server to grant remote connections?
I've been using .net 1.1 with access databases for the past couple of years, so this is all new to me.
Thanks.

I'm using SQL Server 2005 Express, Windows XP SP2. I connect using Windows authentication.
The data source that I'm trying to hit is on a remote server. It's an OpenLink ODBC Data source, and the server is in another location. SQL Server 2005 Express and the ODBC connection are both installed/configured locally on my machine.
I can connect to the remote server. The DSN exists as a System DSN.
The DSN has its own proprietary configuration utility, which I can configure so that the server name is XPLILLEYGSQLEXPRESS. The configuration utility doesn't care; I connect successfully one way or the other.
When I open Management Studio Express, I can see my database (CMS) listed under the "Databases" folder, but there's no tables in there, other than the system tables.
So my question is, what am I missing?
Thanks

Hello. I have SQLEXPRESS 2005 installed on my laptop running Windows XP Home Edition with SP2. I have an application that can connect to the local instance with no problem. The other day, I tried to configure SQLEXPRESS 2005 for a remote connection from my desktop. To date, I have been unable to figure out how to do this.
I have followed the instructions posted at various locations on the internet, but to no avail. While I can configure SQLEXPRESS 2005 to allow TCP/IP connections, I have been unable to restart the server.
Here is the pertinent snippet from the error log:

I have a feeling this problem is due to the way my system is configured, not necessarily how my SQLEXPRESS 2005 is configured. My laptop and desktop are connected via a wireless router, and both machines are running Norton Anti-Virus 2006. I've added sqlserver.exe and sqlbrowser.exe to the exceptions list for the Worm protection on the laptop, i.e., the server machine. There's not a setting at the router that would prevent the server from re-starting, is there?
Any help is GREATLY appreciated!

Hi --- I would like a few users to be query tables, run (create ?) stored procedures, etc. on a SQL 2005 Workgroup database (the sql server is on a dedicated server)...
Will the Toolkit version (or any other version) support this?
Thanks!

Hello Everyone,
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....
Thanks,
Harsimrat

Hi,
Does anyone know if it's at all possible to install SQL Server Express 2005 over a Remote Desktop on a Windows XP machine.
I know there are problems running SQL over Remote Desktop, in that it won't start up a User Instance, but I wasn't sure if we can install over Remote Desktop.
If it's not possible, can anyone point me to an official document stating this fact?
Thanks
Sam

I am new to VB.Net coming from a VB6 background using the VB.Net Express and have even loaded the SQL Express. The learning curve is not to bad until you get to dealing with connecting to db's. However, in trying to fill a grid with data, manipulate it and then update it has not been any fun either. There does not seem to be enough information out there dealing with these two as of right now.
Anyway, trying to add a datasource connection for a grid has resulted in a real problem even using the connection wizard. I keep getting the same error that the default settings for SQL express does not allow remote connections. However, I thought that I have corrected that. Unfortunately, with VB express I cannot even seem to talk to my SQL 2000 server either because it gives me the same exact error. I am thoroughly frustrated with it and ready to just do it in VB6.
I am open to any thoughts on this. I do not like using bound controls, except in a few situations. I would like to create it unbound if at all possible. If someone could give me some ideas as to what to do and where to go with this I would appreciate the help. I have been doing a lot of reading and a descent understanding what is needed to talk to a SQL db.
Thanks in advance.

Hi,I'm
building an asp.net website using web developer express and I have a
SQL 2005 express install on the same machine. Using windows security,
everything works fine for development.Now I need to get it working at the client site, where the web server and SQL 2005 Express are on different machines.I'd
tried using windows authentication but that didn't work, probably
wasn't doing it correctly. I'd like to try SQL Authentication, at least temporarily, since I
can replicate that on my laptop at home easily I think.I created a new SQL login but was really baffled by the screens showing roles and schemas, etc. There's so many roles to choose from and wasn't sure if this new login needed to own any schemas. I
did turn on remote connections and mixed-mode authentication, the
probably now is my asp.net membership provider login page isn't
authenticating correctly, maybe my permissions are wrong on the
aspnet_..... tables for users, roles, profiles, etc. Any advice?thanks,Bruce

Hi,
I'm experiencing problems connecting remotely (through the Management Studio) to a named instance of SQL Server Express 2005.
After investigation I determined it was a firewall issue - turn off windows firewall and I can connect fine. I initially added ports 1433 and 1434 to windows firewall - still no joy. Then I added the binaries explicitly (sqlservr.exe and sqlbrowsr.exe - or whatever they are) - still no joy. So, I looked into the firewall log to see what was being dropped. I found that my IP was trying to connect via port 1047 (TCP)... I've searched for anything about this on google and cannot find any indication that the management studio should be using this port to connect.
If I add this port, the connection works fine. Has anyone else experienced this ? As there seems to be no way of modifying the management studio to connect via a specific port, I'm a bit concerned that something is just not right.
I would appreciate any advice you can give.
Thanks.

Hi,
I have the following scenario in my lab:
1. Windows Vista Ultimate with an fresh SQL 2005 Express SP2;
2. Developer machine with Windows XP and SQL Manag. Studio.
Problem:
Windows Vista isn't allowing a SQL connection from XP >> Vista.
I've tried:
1. Configured surface area (the same configurations works on XP);
2. Configured all services and windows firewall base on online docs from MS.
After 6 hours arround i didn't find any solution. Any ideas?
