Test Connection Failed Because Of Error Initializing Provider. The HTTP Server Returned The Following Error : Not Found
May 26, 2008
Hi All,
I am using windows 2003 server and i have installed SSAS 2005 and configured http request for AS 2005 with this below url : http://www.microsoft.com/technet/prodtechnol/sql/2005/httpasws.mspx. I had tried all the possiblities given in this url. But i am getting like "Test connection failed because of error initializing provider. The HTTP Server returned the following error : Not found" when i create udl file. Moreover i have installed MSOLAP 3.0 and OLAP 9.0 provider and MSXML 6.0 Parser.
I am creating my first SSIS package, simple, I read a file, a computation and then write it to an excel.
I am getting the message: "Test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider." The database is NOT remote. My computer is slow though. after about 10 or 15 seconds after clicking the button to test my connection, I get the message and much more. The message asks me if the instance name is correct. I don't know what this would be. This message is on the first task, reading the file (finding the file).
The last sentence of the long message is: "Named pipes provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server (2).
My question is: Why am I getting this message and what do I need to do to resolve this problem?
Have 6 SQL Server 2012  failover clusters  environments on Windows 2012 R2 standard edition.Have intermittent connectivity issues when using Windows Authentication, with the error "test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider. login timeout expired" . Am checking by using a UDL file and have tried the below.
1) Have made port changes to use static 1433 port. 2) Have enabled shared memory and using Named Pipes and TCP/IP by using cliconfig. 3) Have turned off firewall. 4) Loopback is disabled 5) SQL Browser is running, have changed 'Built in Account setting'  from 'Local Service' to 'Network Service'. but with no effect.
Still I am getting intermittent connectivity issues.

Facts:1. I am using my account on Godaddy trying to connect to my sql server db.2. I can get into my db using user id and password.3. Godaddy's help file shows this for a connection string: connectstr = "Driver={SQL Server};SERVER=" & db_server & ";DATABASE=" &db_name & ";UID=" & db_username & ";PWD=" & db_userpassword4. My connection string: "Server=whsql-v09.prod.mesa1.secureserver.net;uid=dbasolutions;pwd=***;database=DB_87972;" & _ "Trusted_Connection=False providerName=System.Data.SqlClient"{password **** out}5. Get 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: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) I tried to email Godaddy's help desk with this information. There first response: We do not allow remote connections to our sql server database.There second response was to read the help file!Does anybody have any suggestions? Thanks in advance,bswanson
I have seen several posts on the subject, and have tried various configs. At this point, I am simply trying to connect to SQL Express, that's all.
I have an app. in MS Access that uses SQL Express as a back-end database (this is the simple desktop version of our software). I don't remember having so many issues with just connecting to a small db engine on a single computer..! Just to get it off my chest, there was a post about this subject where someone listed more than 15 items to check... If anyone at Microsoft is reading... connections should not require a 15-item check-list.. People running sql express are not creating a sophisticated database system, probably running it because, they want a free, easy solution, and do not have an IT person, nor are they intersted in reading any 1 of the 15 items... Just trying to connect to the instance of the database that runs on the same computer.... that should not require more than possibly 3 different settings.
My objective at this point, is simply to connect! Nothing else.
My environment settings are:
OS: Win XP Professional MS Access(2003) and SQL Express both installed on the same computer All connection attempts are on the same computer SQL Express is installed in mixed mode SQL Browser running, Network DDE running (if needed) All Network protocols are enabled (tried disabling and enabling each 1 at a time as well) All Client protocols are enabled I tried setting network library to "dbmssocn", and left blank for default (uses namedpipes) I tried using host name, localhost, and IP address for servername (with the SQLEXPRESS of course) Also tried leaving it blank I tried with Integrated security, also tried with the user "sa" and "test" user (both enabled and capable of logging in and accessing the database) I tested the connection from SQL Express Manager, successfully connected in all modes (secure, and with SQL users) to make sure there are no issues with the users or security. Tried turning the SQL browser off (this should not be needed in local mode) Tried using an alias Tried using attach database as a filename And, the firewall is turned off.
Always getting the error "....connection failed because of an error in initializing provider" (whether using namedpipes, or TCP, or shared mem)
Both SQL Express and Access are installed on the computer, that should include the providers...
Please let me know if there is anything left for checking and/or trying... Appreciate your help...
i'm going nuts with SQL server notification thing. I have gone throigh this artical which tells how to set user http://www.codeproject.com/KB/database/SqlDependencyPermissions.aspx. This article show how to create new user and setup for sql server notification.But In my case user was alredy existing in database. which is very common senario in most cases. So i did following( check the SQL script below) but then i get this error "A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the login process.

I am new to dotnet. I tried connecting to the database MS SQL Server 2000. I gave the code like, the one below, in form load event,

SqlConnection myConnection = new SqlConnection("Data Source=IP;Initial Catalog=name;User Id=uid;Password=pwd;");
myConnection.Open();
myConnection.Close();
But I could not connect. The error message highlights the line myConnection.Open() and displays the error

It tries connecting to SQL Server 2005. There is no SQL Server 2005 in that system. There is only SQL Server 2000.
I have the aspx code in my local system and the database in another machine.
Could Someone please help me out in solving this problem.
I realised this has been done to death, and so much information out there but I am still in a quandry.
I have had to rebuild my computer.
This is what I did
XP machine using SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition using Windows Authentication NZ6(MSSQLSERVER)
straight default install all the way
unfortunately when ready to run reports from my instance(computer) I received the error as in provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server
thought I had it all okayed but obviously something not right
so ended up unistalling then - did the following:
Load SQL Server from disc1 and start install failed on alter Counter Registry key error fixed this from KB article (known error that can happen) restarted Went to Windows Update check IIS is installed - tick is on - IIS - admin tools - make sure asp2 is associated - yes ok Then back to install sql server - there is no instance set up yet Disk 2 and setup .exe
All ok on Reporting Services, Analysis etc.
But once again all seems fine but still getting the error:
connection is all fine in Management Studio - eg I can see tables etc connection is all fine in Business Intelligence - eg I can preview my reports I then can deploy up to - NZ6 open NZ6 eports report is there fine - but just errors
some simple little tick that I have not done!!
I seem to have checked and rechecked everything and obviously doing another re-install does not seem a logical step from here. I will continue to check but if someone jump in and advise please would be great.
I am creating a web site using Visual Studio 2008 & trying to connect to database on SQL Server 2000. My test connection is successful but while debugging the page I am getting this error : " provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server "
Solutions recommended for this were start running the SQL browser instance and enable Namespipes in Sqlserver configuration manager.Did both.. but nothing worked.
I made a Web page, and it works perfect on my local machine, everything is OK, until I uloaded page to the server, it reports this error:

I've got a package which reads a text file into a table and updates another. I set up configurations so that I could import it into the SSIS store on both my dev and live servers. Now, I'm getting this error. I tried removing the configs and am still getting it.
I've been through each step and everything looks okay. Does anyone have any idea (a) what's wrong, (b) how to localise the error or (c) get any additional information? Or do I just have to recreate the package from scratch?

I'm having a problem sending the query set as an email text attachment. Test transmissions from Database mail working fine.
Send simple messages with the sp_send_dbmail sproc works fine as well.
It is only when I try and send a query result that things blow up. The query itself is working fine also, so I'm now down to think there is some esoteric problem with the sproc itself.
Surface config features have database mail on, and SQL Mail off.
Msg 14661, Level 16, State 1, Procedure sp_send_dbmail, Line 476 Query execution failed: Error initializing COM Msg 0, Level 11, State 0, Line 0 A severe error occurred on the current command. The results, if any, should be discarded.
Investigating the sproc itself shows...
Line 476 in the sproc is the beginning of a 'trap' --Raise an error it the query execution fails -- This will only be the case when @append_query_error is set to 0 (false) IF( (@RetErrorMsg IS NOT NULL) AND (@exclude_query_output=0) ) BEGIN RAISERROR(14661, -1, -1, @RetErrorMsg) END

I'm Getting "Report Server WMI Provider error: Not Found" when trying to Grant Database Access while configuring the Reporting Sevices Integration. Logging in fine to the DB. Tried all the WMI troublshooting and can't find any issues there. Any tips?
i have recently started to work with the analysis services and i am having some problems.
i have made a web application that for now just tries to connect to an analysis server.
The server is installed on an xp sp 2 system.
for testing, i used my local computer, which is running also win xp sp2. After deploying, the application can connect to the AS server on the other machine. the problem occurs when i try to deploy the applicatuion on the production server, which is running win 2k3 server on 32 bit. When deploying, i use the same connection string, so it should try to connect to the AS server installed on a win xp sp2 system.
The first thing that came to my mind was to check the MDAC versions, be cause of the message: "Provider cannot be found. It may not be properly installed."
on my computer, where the application worked ok, the version is MDAC 2.8 SP 1 Windows XP SP 2
on the win2k3 server, the MDAC version is : MDAC 2.8 SP2.... i thought it was the version of the service pack, so o searched for the update of MDAC 2.8 SP1, trying to install mdac 2.8 sp2 to see if i was to see the same error, but i found that mdac 2.8 sp2 is only for win2k3 server, and for win xp is mdac 2.8 sp1, according to this link: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/884103
Now i got confused and have no clues how to make this work...
Window Server 2003 R2 Standard Edition (x64) SP1 Sql Server 2000 8.00.2039 SP4 Enterprise Edition (32 bit version)

In case if anyone has a solution to it, please let me know.
We experience the 40 error when our Asp.net code runs under IIS and uses named pipes to a sql server 2005 named instance.
We've tried all suggestions found on blogs and KB articles such as making sure the named pipes protocol is enabled, making sure the Browser service is started, making sure Allow Remote Connections is enabled, making sure we're not using Asp.Net 2.0 membership providers, and the list goes on and on.
We boiled it down to a simple test scenario. We open a SqlConnection to the sql 2005 box in the code with the intention of binding a datareader to a gridview, but it never gets that far because the connection.Open() fails.
If we run this test application as a virtual directory in IIS and Asp.Net 2.0, the connection.Open() fails.
If we run this test application from Visual Studio .Net using Cassini (PWS), the connection.Open() succeeds and binds to the gridview.
What could be causing the connection to fail under IIS but succeed under Cassini? We've tried setting IIS to run as a domain user and with digest authentication enabled. That made no difference.
