Hello,I try to get an asp site to work on my local machine. Using ASP Studio2005 and mssql server 2005 eval on win xp, and ms management studio.I'm new to mssql and asp and just want to get the site to run (notedit). have a simple connect script likeset conn = server.CreateObject("adodb.connection")conString ="PROVIDER=SQLOLEDB;DATA SOURCE=DANIEL;DATABASE=nano;UserID=sa;Password=yyy"conn.open conStringwhat happens is that IE hangs on load. the settings in the string areall ok I think: if I change id or pw (that is to any non-existinguser), immediately comes error like "problem logging in user sa". onlywith the correct values, IE hangs. this makes me believe that thesettings are right, but that the hanging comes from anything else. anyideas anyone? port problem? which is right? how to check? what else?how to detect? where are error logs? how to get detailed info?i would also be lucky with no-authentication - butconString ="PROVIDER=SQLOLEDB;DATASOURCE=DANIEL;DATABASE=nano;Integrated Security=SSPI"without uid and pw also results in hanging. so I now think the connstrings is ok. what is wrong?? [since I am new, and just took theproject from a cd, please also ask me "stupid"questions/suggestions!!] thank you VERY much!!!!daniel

I recently switched servers and I'm running into the a really strange remote connection issue.
The server is brand new Windows 2003 fully updated , .NET 2.0 and 3.0 installed, trying remote connection using VS2005 and the full edition of Management Studio. Managment Studio Express is installed on box.
Firewall is not blocking UDP port 1434 or TCP port 1433 or any other normal port, verified with Netstats
First I tried to install SQLExpress Advanced Services as a default instance. The install worked fine with no issues. I enabled remote connections in the surface area config tool and then restarted the service. When I attempted to connect using xx.xx.xx.xxx or xx.xx.xx.xxy on the local machine using TCP or NP with SQL authentication it worked fine. Then I tried to connect from my remote machine and I recieved one of these errors:
Using TCP
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.)
Using NP
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)
Next I contacted my hosting company they recommended that I reinstall which I did this time as a Named Instance did the remote configuration, started the sql browser and got the connections working on the local machine using
.SQLEXPRESS
or xx.xx.xx.xxxSQLEXPRESS or xx.xx.xx.xxySQLEXPRESS
Tried again from my remote machine get the
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.Error 26 (can't find a server at this address error)
Any suggestions??

I'm trying to connect to the SharePoint MSDE database from Windows XP
SP2 machine over Ethernet LAN. I was getting server not found or access
denied, until I enabled TCP/IP via svrnetcn.exe. Now, I'm getting
OK
Connection failed:
SQLState: '01000'
SQL Server Error: 10061

(Connect()).
Connection failed:
SQLState: '08001'
SQL Server Error: 17
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][TCP/IP Sockets]SQL Server does not
exist or access denied.
I just did an netstat -an and I don't see the server listening on 1433.
What am I not doing?
The svrnetcn tool has no effect. I make a change and check the logs,
but nothing happens. What would be causing this?

Full Error message is:
Failed to connect to server DDI-DP9IM5A5F5W. (Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo)
------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the login process. (provider: Shared Memory Provider, error: 0 - No process is on the other end of the pipe.) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 233)
For help, click: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?ProdName=Microsoft+SQL+Server&EvtSrc=MSSQLServer&EvtID=233&LinkId=20476
When I consult the error log I see:
Could not connect because the maximum number of '4' user connections has already been reached. The system administrator can use sp_configure to increase the maximum value. The connection has been closed. [CLIENT: <local machine>]
2007-01-30 04:53:14.93 Logon Error: 17809, Severity: 20, State: 3.
_____________________________________________________________
The log error message doesn't make any sense because there aren't 4 user connections.
After I received the error message, mgmt studio still lets me access the database make changes, but I cannot connect via my application. Any ideas? Thanks!

I built an ASP.NET application that works with SQL Server Express 2005. I am using Typed Datasets to interact with the database, and everything works well on my staging server (Windows 2003).
However, when I deployed the application to the clients server, no updates actually work! I try adding new items through the interface to no avail. I try updating data through the interface and nothing works. The strange thing is, I get no errors!
Has anyone ever encountered this before?

Hello,At work we have various servers, therefore we have various DTS Interfaceswhich transfer data between them.However when trying to save a new View to one server which gets its datafrom another server nothing happens, I get an hourglass and nothing else.Then I have to exit out of SQL Enterprise Manager and then no-one can accessthe database on that server, so we had to restore from backup!The query to create the view resides on server AThe query is getting its data from server BBut the query does need to reside on server A for other reasons.What does this sound like to you?I am suspecting connection problems between server A and B but the queryruns, its only when I save the view that this happens.I am puzzled.Thanks,Jayne

Hi,I had a deadlock situation on SQLServer 2000. When I look at theLocks / process ID screen on Enterprise Manager, for one of thesession, I see the object being one table and the index is on anothertotally unrelated table's primary key. This is really odd since thereare no foreign keys tying these two tables together. They don't evenreference the same parent tables. These two tables are quitedis-joint. Does anyone know why I will get this kind of lock?Thanks,Maggie :)

I'm trying to copy a database from my web host to local Sql Server 2005 instance using the Copy Database wizard. I get this error:An exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch. Server user 'celestine' is not a valid user id database 'db2'.However, 'db2' isn't the database I was trying to copy! I am trying to copy db1, but this error is complaining about db2, which is in fact somebody else's database that I don't have a login for. Why am I getting an error about db2 when I'm not trying to do anything with db2???I can however export the tables from db1 just fine using Export. But then I have to go back and generate script to re-create the stored procs, views, etc., so it is rather tedious to do it that way.

Hello,
I'm tyring a simple piece of code to conenct to my database: SqlConnection con = new SqlConnection("Data Source=localhost; Initial Catalog=OrderingSystem; Integrated Security=SSPI");
try
{
// Try to open the connection.
con.Open();
label1.Text = "<b>Server Version:</b> " + con.ServerVersion;
label1.Text += "<br /><b>Connection Is:</b> " + con.State.ToString();
}
catch (Exception err)
{
// Handle an error by displaying the information.
label1.Text = "Error reading the database. " + err.Message;
}
finally
{
// Either way, make sure the connection is properly closed.
// Even if the connection wasn't opened successfully,
// calling Close() won't cause an error.
con.Close();
label1.Text += "<br /><b>Now Connection Is:</b> " +
con.State.ToString();
}
When I try this, I get an error:"Error reading the database. Cannot open database "OrderingSystem" requested by the login. The login failed. Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE'."
The strange thing is, this code works perfectly If I use it in a Windows Forms application.
Is it a problem with SQL server, IIS or my code?I'm using SQL Server 2005 (SP2) 32bit developer edition + IIS 6.0 + Visual Studio 2008 Pro all runnign on my Windows XP x64 PC.
Thankyou

Hi all.
I was just restoring one database and creating another concurrently on the same server. The restore took longer than the create due to the respective sizes.
After the create had finished (done in Query Analyzer) I went back to the restore to see how it was getting on (running in Enterprise Manager).
There was an error (which I didn't record exactly - DOH!) along the lines of "could not obtain a lock on the model database, restore terminating abnormally."
I guess the create had model locked while it was creating the default objects, but what was a *restore* doing needing the model database anyway?
Any comments would be interesting.

Hi gurus:
I met a very strange problem recently. I set up a database integrity check maintenance plan. But this job failed every time. I looked into the logs, the error message was that Databases that have a compatibility level of 70 (SQL Server version 7.0) will be skipped. I used the sp_helpdb to check the version of the databases included in my maintenance plan. The sp result shows that all the databases are above version 80....
Even more strange, i can successfully run the dbcc check query on each database.
Any comment and suggestion will be very appreciated.

Hi,We have 2 servers. Server1 is a 2000 box, with SP3 (yes I know it isnot up to date). Server2 is a 2005 box, SP2.I set up Server1 (2000) to have a linked server to Server2 (2005). Thereason I did this is because we are using a stored procedure onServer2 to send mail, as we have found that using mail on 2000 doesn'talways work as advertised.When I set up the linked server on the 2000 box, for security I justset it up to use a SQL Server user on the 2005 box. The SQL Serveruser on the 2005 box has permissions to run the stored procedure forsending mail.Here's the weird thing though. When calling the stored procedure onthe 2005 box from the 2000 box, sometimes we get an error that "Thedefault database cannot be opened", and the query does not run on the2005 box. However, it only happens *sometimes*. Other times, the queryruns fine.Since the problem seeemed to be with the default database, I changedthe SQL Server user on 2005 default database to the SAME database thatcontains the stored procedure.However, I just don't understand why it's even TRYING to open thedefault database, since when we called the linked server we are doingso as, and it's referencing the default database in the name:EXEC Server2.DefaultDatabase.dbo.StoredProcedureNameHowever, after changing the user's default database to"DefaultDatabase" as shown above, the query runs fine.Why are we having this problem? That is, if I change the defaultdatabase to something other than "DefaultDatabase", then the querydoesn't run, even though the database name is referenced in the abovequery??Obviously, this is not desireable, because that means we can only runqueries that are in "DefaultDatabase", which may not always be thecase.Thanks much

I have an application that creates a new database during installation,and I've noticed some strange behavior. Once I've created thedatabase, I am able to immediately create tables and populate lookupdata, provided I remain connected to the server. If, however, Idisconnect and attempt to reconnect immediately, I'll get an errorsaying that my login is invalid for the new database.I can get around this by having my code simply wait 5 seconds beforeattempting to reconnect, but I'm curious to see if anybody here cangive an explaination for why this is happening. Here is a bit ofpseudo code to explain what I'm seeing:open new connectioncreate databasecreate tablespopulate tablesclose connection// open new connection /* can't do this yet, as it would break */for (int a=0; a<5; a++){Thread.Sleep(2000)try{open new connectionbreak;}catch{Debug("still waiting...");}}Running my version of this code, I'll see that "still waiting..."message go past 2-3 times before SQL Server wakes up and realizes thatI'm allowed to connect to it. Anybody know why?Thanks,Jason KesterExpat Software Consulting Serviceshttp://www.expatsoftware.com/---Get your own Travel Blog, with itinerary maps and photos!http://www.blogabond.com/

Hi everyone,
I€™m suffering a queer behaviour when I use BIDS. Concretely, when I open a dtsx from my project (it has 10 packages) many times Sequence Container and Data Flow tasks are invisible. I mean, its lines are not visible at all whereas its titles are. I mean, what you see is just a white box€¦
Then, I€™m gonna Data Flow layer and I have to do double-clik over the tasks and are visible but on Control Flow I don€™t see how to solve.
Curiously in our development and production server such behaviour doesn€™t happen (we are accessing by mean Terminal Server from our workstations)
How odd!. Everything is fine except this.
I want to remark you that such project has been copied from the server, this is, these packages are been built on the server
Thanks for your thougts or ideas,

I am new to windows apps in .net 2.0. I am trying to create a windows service that will connect to a database and email info out to people that have had status changes.
Right now, I can not connect to the database. Here is the connection string:
Private cnn As New SqlClient.SqlConnection("Data Source=IPAddress;Initial Catalog=TheServer;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=userid;Password=password provider=SQLOLEDB.1;connect timeout=3600")
This is how I am trying to connect:
cnn.Open()
myCMD.CommandTimeout = 0
dr = myCMD.ExecuteReader
I keep getting an error message that I can not be logged on. I know that the credentials are correct because I use them for the web app. Something has to be wrong with my connection string, but what?
Thanks,

I am attempting to connect to a database that has been uploaded to my server from my webpages on the server. This is the connection string that is currently used:
connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|Restaurants.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"
When attempting to connect to the database I receive this error message:
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)
I realize that I cannot make a remote connection using SQL Server 2005 Express Edition, but cannot find the proper connection string for it to connect to the uploaded database.
Accessing the database doesn't require a log on by the user as all the information is public.
The authentication mode in the web.config file is set to "Forms".
If there is any other information required so that this problem can be solved, please ask for it.
Thank you in advance,

Ok I have several sites on a server that have connected to databases on a different server for a long. Out of the blue today none of the sites on the server can connect to any databases on the other server. However, sites on other servers can connect to databases on the same db server.This is the message I get: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 -

There is nothing in the event log to suggest a problem, any ideas what could be causing this?

I am using the user login control, and then I changed the connection string in the web config file according to what Go Daddy's help file said, making sure to make proper server, id, and password names. It still won't go through, can anyone help?

I recently uninstalled SQL Server due to connection issues I started having. I could start the DB and connect/edit tables in Ent Mgr etc, but all the sudden, none of my code could make DB connections.
So, after reinstalling now nothing works. I cannot even connect in Ent. Manager. I went to Administrative Tools->Services to make sure it was running, and SQLSERVER isn't even listed under services. What happened? Is there another step after installing SQL Server I missed to get the service up and going. Do I need to do something in ODBC connections?
I am on Windows XP with SP2.

Greetings,
A newbie needing some guidance. We have SQL running on our Windows 2003 server. When I connect via the Enterprise manager I have two instances of SQL running.
SRV01ACT7 (Windows NT)
SRV01WEBAPP (Windows NT)
When I click on the ACT instance I get the following error:
A connection could not be established to SRV01/ACT7
Reason: Login Failed for user xxxxadministrator.
Please verify SQL Server is running and check your SQL Server registration properties.
I only get the message when I try to connect to the SRV01ACT. The connection to SRV01WEBAPP works fine.
I checked with SQL server manager and both instances are running and no one has reported any problems connecting to either one of them.
The way it acts, its as if SQL server has lost the ability to authorize a connection via the windows account. As if it has lost its associatoin to the administrator account. So while the instance still runs and is functional, I just can't connect to it and manage it.
I have connected via remote desktop from a WinXP machine and the server console. Both end up with the same error.
Can Someone give me step by step instructions on how to correct this?
Any help please!!!

Update: I got it working. I had to create an odbc connection on my machine (guess I forgot to do that this time).
I copied a SQL 2005 database from another machine (detached it first. I can connect directly in SFT SQL Server Mgmt Studio, but I cannot connect from VFP using SQLCONNECT(). I've overlooked something. My login is the db_owner and everything else. Any ideas? SQL Server is running on the same machine that I have VFP9 on. It is setup for both SQL Server and Windows Authentication and I can connect to every other database I have attached.
TIA,
