Timing Is Everything? SQL Server Is Not Ready To Accept New Client Connections
Apr 18, 2007
I cannot understand how this was allowed to happen, but I can recreate the situation all day long. Someone, please tell me that I have missed an obvious solution to this;
With a fresh install of SQL 2005 Express (SP2) I have 4 databases installed and two service-based applications running. One of the service applications uses/requires three of the four databases and the second service application uses/requires the fourth database.
On boot, with the above described services set to depend on SQL Server service startup I get repeated failures on initial database access. Looking at the event log reveals why (in sequence):
SQL Server Startup...
Event: Server local connection provider is ready to accept connection on...
Event: Server named pipe provider is ready to accept connection on...
Event: Server is listening on [ 'any' <ipv4> 1911]
Application Service Startup...
Event: SQL Server is not ready to accept new client connections. Wait a few minutes before trying again. If you have access to the error log, look for the informational message that indicates that SQL Server is ready before trying to connect again
Moments Later:
Event: SQL Server is now ready for client connections. This is an informational message; no user action is required.
Now, its clear that the SQL service has started, and that this opens the floodgates for dependant services to start, each of which is told - essentially - to go away and come back once the SQL server has **really** started. With the accompanying suggestion to 'look for the informational message that indicates that SQL Server is ready' in the event log.
Am I reading the situation right so far?
In response to this, with my developer way of thinking, I could probably script the startup of application services rather than have them start automatically at boot or some such insane idea. But its not really the way that I had planned to spend the next few hours of my life, and it seems to me that I should not have to do such a thing.
Our in house service application (one of the two described) is in fact robust enough (just enough) to survive and to try the connection periodically, accomplishing a successful startup even with no database available.
The second of the two services is external and is unfortunately unable to start with no database available (Business Objects XI CMS). The normal means of making this service robust against database outages is the service restart procedure setting. But since the service doesnt ever start successfully, this doesnt work (learn something new every day - the restart is literal. It does not provide an initial startup retry and the service must have been started and fail for the retry to kick in)
Now, im not trying to bash anyone over this situation and regardless of the inflexible nature of the external service application and the general sillyness of the SQL server startup sequence - i mean c'mon... we are started but not ready? How about dont report startup until after you are ready? - the end result is that I need to come up with a solution to this problem.
I cant imagine that this is the first time that this behaviour has been questioned and I have to believe that there will be a simple, reliable workaround. I will keep looking for myself, but if any of this sounds familiar and you have a suggestion, your response will be greatly appreciated.

Hi,
SQL
Server 2005 isn't accepting any connection other than SQL Management
Studio from the local machine. However, even that's exhibiting strange
behavior (please see below for more details).
I've read
through all the common errors regarding enabling remote connections via
the SAC tool, making sure protocols are enabled, etc. This case seems
to be completely outside. Any advice appreciated.
Thanks,
Elias
[1] Client side:
What
is the connection string in you app or DSN? N/A. Can't connect via any
remote method, including client Control Panel > ODBC > create
DSN, SQL Server Enterprise Manager, third party application.
If
client fails to connect, what is the client error messages? Several,
depending on method: "server does not exist or access denied", "error
has occurred... under default settings, SQL Server does not accept
remote connections", etc.
Is the client remote or local to the SQL server machine? Remote
Can you ping your server? YesCan
you telnet to your SQL Server? No. However, there's a functional
instance of SQL Server 2000 on the same domain which has no problems- telnet also fails to that instance, even locally from either machine using the 127.0.0.1 address. Telnet functions for other ports.
What
is your client database provider? N/A Or/And, what is your client
application? SQL Management Studio and others
Is your client computer in the same domain as the Server computer? Same domain
What protocol the client enabled? TCPIP when I attempted to create the DSN. Not sure what protocol SQL Management Studio uses.
Do
you have aliases configured that match the server name portion of your
connection string? NoDo you select force encryption on server and/or client? No
[2] Server side:
What is the MS SQL version? SQL Server 2005
What is the SKU of MS SQL? Standard
What
is the SQL Server Protocol enabled? [Shared Memory | TCPIP | Named
Pipes ] Have tried all three individually and together. Configuration Manager exhibits strange behavior (see below)Does
the server start successfully? Server starts successfully when the
machine boots. However once it's stopped, it can't be restarted (see
below)
If SQL Server is a named instance, is the SQL browser enabled? Default instance
What is the account that the SQL Server is running under? Local SystemDo
you make firewall exception for your SQL server TCP port if you want
connect remotely through TCP provider? Not sure, but SQL Server 200 instance is working OK
Do
you make firewall exception for SQL Browser UDP port 1434? Unknown
[3] Platform:
What is the OS version? Client: Windows XPSP2 Server: Windows Server 2003
Do you have third party antivirus, anti-spareware software installed? Client: Trend Micro Server: UnknownOther behavior:
A separate instance of SQL Server 2000 on a different machine on the same domain is functioning without problems.
Telnet
to either SQL Server (functional 2000 or problem 2005) on port 1433 is
not possible - even when attempted from the local machine using
127.0.0.1! Telnet to both machines works using other ports.
When
creating a DSN from a client machine, problem 2005 instance is in list
of available SQL Servers, however connection fails ("SQL Server denied
access or does not exist").
MSSQLSERVER service starts
automatically on boot. However, once stopped the service can not be
restarted. Message given: "SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) service on Local
Computer Started and then Stopped. Some services stop automatically if
they have no work to do, for example, the Performance Logs and Alerts
Service."
SQL
Server Surface Area Configuration for Services and Connections tool
does not display Database Engine option as indicated by this MS guide
to enabling remote connections:

enabled. However event log seems to show instance not listening via any
protocol. Message displayed as: "SQL Server listening on ." (should
read: "Server is listening on ['any' <ipaddress> <ipv4>
<Port Number>])
Several answers indicated uninstall and reinstall could solve these problems. However, wizard refused to uninstall SQL Server.
Attempted disabling Shared Memory as documentation indicates this protocol gets used first. No luck.
Access through SQL Server Management Studio works, from local machine only.
Able to ping machine by name and IP.

I am running SQL Server 2000 on windows XP pro. I have configured (enabled) TCP/IP protocol and left the default port 1433, but SQL server still does does not listen for client connections.
Can anyone tell me what might stop SQL server from listening???

www.shanje.comdoes sql server hosting, on shared servers, at a reasonable price. It seems.They also allow client connections. Just playing around I've managed toconnect an Access Data Project to a SQL Server database, and to access thedatabase from Enterprise Manager (running locally).First of all - what does anybody think of that as a general idea - localclient, connecting to MS SQL Server running on a shared host, connectingover the internet (ADSL here). Speed looket OK ish, but of course I haven'tdone any real stress testing.Second. In enterprise manager I could see ALL the database, though I couldonly access mine. What's the security implications of this approach?Third. Anybody got any experience of Shanje? Service/uptime/value etc. Or isthere anybody else offering a similar service?Cheers, Jo

SQL Server is cutting off client connections intermittently and I'm having a hard time figuring out why. Restarting the SQL server service fixes the issue for a few days but then it happens again. It's SQL Server 2005 on Windows SBS 2003 with XP and Win2000 clients connecting. Clients connect via a DSN file--they run an Access database. I run daily backups and all maintenance tasks on the databases and these happen without any errors.
Here are some of the error messages I get from the SQL Log:
Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE'. [CLIENT: 192.168.1.16]
Error: 18056, Severity: 20, State: 23.
The client was unable to reuse a session with SPID 72, which had been reset for conection pooling. This error may have been caused by an earlier operation failing. Check the error logs for failed operations immediately before this error message.
The SQL Network Interface library could not deregister the Service Principal Name (SPN) for the SQL Server service. Error: 0x862. Administrator should deregister this SPN manually to avoid client authentication errors.
And a recurring error in the SQL Agent Log:
[165] ODBC Error: 0, Driver's SQLAllocHandle on SQL_HANDLE_ENV failed [SQLSTATE IM004]
any clues into how i can further troubleshoot would be appreciated. I can't reproduce the error on command but it is bound to happen "randomly" during business hours and i really need it to stop. any insight appreciated.
thanks,
k

Hi guys,
You know when restoring a database in SQL Server, exclusive access is required. With sp_who I can see the clients. But I don't know how to terminate the client connections easily. Usually I have to stop the server and restart it. I DO think it's too troublesome. Do you have any ideas? Is there any sp or command, or tool that may help? How do you deal with this issue?
Thanks!

If I look under SQL native client configuration | Client protocols, I have no entries and no ability to look at the properties of SQL Native client Configuration. Something is missing which I think is related to an error when connecting to my local server.
sqlcmd -E -S .devmain, 1064
I get error :
Encryption not support
sqlcmd: Error: microsoft SQL native Client : Client unable to establish connection
An error has occurred while establish 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..
In comparison to other machines here at work, it appears my remote connections are configured. But I have no Client Protocols under sql native client configuration, how can I get them in there?
Thanks, in advance.

As stated in the subject I have a situation where if database mirroring is employed for either manual or automatic failover, all the client (including web connections) connections use ODBC not ADO, or OLEDB etc... so what methods are recommended? Client side redirect is not available so I could not employe the "Data Source =A; Failover Partner=B..." option.
Right now the method employed (pre database mirroring and basically employing log shipping on SQL 2000) is to have a DNS alias for the ODBC connection so that if the server were to change in a failover situation the DNS record would have to be altered, so that all the client connections would not have to be reconfigured.

Dominic Baines

I have been investigating the number of connections activeinactive to a certain database server and I have stumbled across an application which seems to not be clearing its database connections.For one instance of a client there was >70 sql connections which eventuated from the closing and reopening one 1 screen in the culprut app. Once the application was closed all of the connections are recycled but its evident that within the application itself it is not correctly reusing already existing open connections.
I have raised a point with the main programmer that we need to investigate more into how the application is managingot managing its ADO .NET connections to SQL.
I am starting with doing some reading here URL... and I was hoping to get some more information about the possible impact of excessive sql connections on the SQL Server itself. Our organization is quite lucky in that our SQl Servers are Overspecced given their workload, bearing that in mind I would like to dig a bit deeper to get some stats if I can to highlight the scope of the issue to the managementprogrammers.Our SQL server peaks at 6500 processes and a good 70% of those are due to this applications mis-management of its sql connections.

Hello,
Is SQL Server 2005 mirroring production ready yet. We have two servers and plan to set up mirroring between them. We have the Standard Editon installed on them.
Is Standard Edition sufficient or does it need Enterprise Edition?
Thanks in Advance,

I use SQL Server to provide data to asp web pages and have recently started to get ODBC time outs throughout the day.
The environment is as follows:
Server with dual PII processors & 512MB RAM running:
- SQL Server 7
- IIS
I have a number of asp based web sites hosted on this box, but only 1 of them seems to be affected by the time out problem. I have checked the resources on the server (NT Task Mgr - Memoey & Processor) and everything seems fine - in fact the resources are hardly being touched!!!
Within a few minutes the problem disappears completely without me doing anything.
Am I missing something here?
Should I look elsewhere other than SQL - maybe IIS ???
Any suggestions / pointers would be very much appreciated.
Thx

Hi,
I have a package which reads an XML file from a certain folder and parses it.
I deployed my package onto the server. Copied XML files on the D: drive the following folder on the server.
Dim reader As New Xml.XmlTextReader("D:AppsRequestClientsClientsStatus.xml") is fine.
But
Do While (reader.Read())
generates "The Device is not ready"
I think it is still trying to read it from my desktop on which I don't have a D drive.

Hi folks
I attended one of the SQL Server 2005 "Ready to Launch" parties a couple of years ago and was given a complimentary SQL Server Standard Edition CAL along with a copy of the SQL Server 2005 Standard setup DVD.
As there's no mention in the "Ready to Launch" pack of an included Server license I was wondering whether it is possible to install a copy of SQL Server 2005 on a standalone server and use the single CAL in a Production environment without having to purchase a Server license? The pack does include a Product Key - is this the Server license?
Thanks
Chris

Can someone at Microsoft comment on this article, specifically, how it relates to SQL Replication? Will SQL Replication fall into the category of what this article describes, or only the mirroring feature?

I have a SQL Server database running on a local PC which will eventually be scaled up once everything is working.
The Database takes data from an Access database, then the SQL Server aggregates this data into several other tables.
I have used a trigger to run this in SQL Server, once a table in SQL Server is appended with a specific value.
I have tested the trigger to do a simple task, and this works.
I have tested the aggregation query which create 18 seperate tables as well. It takes around 25 minutes to run. These are huge tables
When I use Access to append the final value to start the SQL Server trigger it freezes and eventually times out. I assume this is because it is running the 25minute trigger, and Access has to wait until this is completed before it can proceed.
I was hoping it would trigger SQL Server to run the trigger, then Access could go off and do something else!

I have a co-worker whose sql server 2005 is exhibiting strange behavior. We have already re-installed sql server 2005 and service packed it to SP2 to try and see if the behavior stops but it has not.
Every so often during the day sql server 2005 will start to slow down to the point that my co-worker's queries begin to time out. He turned on profiler to look at what was going on behind the scenes.
We see where sa is releasing and acquring locks to the tune of 180,000 rows in a fifteen minute span when this behavior starts so does his time outs. He has reporting options and analysis services installed but not configured. His only connection is to his local database. Occasionally, you see a number like - (03000d8f0ecc) appear in the Text Data column in profiler for sa. I read something about reporting options using sa for clean up but I don't think that is what is happening here.
Does someone have a clue as to what is happening and a way we can prevent the behavior? It is affecting his ability to work on his application.
Thx

We have a high volume database with 1000's of users and 1000's of procs. Our application enforces a 20 second timeout on all connections.
We can't adjust the 20 seconds - this is a business rule.
It sometimes happens that a proc does not complete within 20 seconds and then times out halfway though. This causes data inconsistency where 50% of the code was saved to the DB and 50% was not - seeing that a stored proc is not transactional and therefor does not roll back the code.
We can't put the code in a TRANSACTION in order to roll back when a time out occurs, because this causes exclusive locks on the tables.
So I guess my question is:
Is it possible to undo/rollback all the code in a proc when a timeout occurs - without using a TRANSACTION? And if a TRANSACTION is the only way - how do I avoid the exclusive lock and blocks?

Environment:Server1 (Local)OS Windows 2000 ServerSQL Server 2000Server2 (Remote)OS Windows 2003 ServerSQL Server 2000(Both with most recent service packs)Using Enterprise Manager, we have set up the Link Server (LINK_A) inthe Local Server 1 to connect to Server 2.The SQL we need to run is the following:INSERT INTO table1(column1,column2)SELECT A.column1, A.column2FROM LINK_A.catalog_name.dbo.table2 AS AWHERE A.column1 xxxx;When we run this from the Query Analyzer, it completes with no problemsin a few seconds.Our problem:When we add the DTS Package as the ActiveX Script (VB Script) to theLocal Package, it times out at "obj_Conn.Execute str_Sql"Dim Sql, obj_ConnSet obj_Conn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")obj_Conn.Open XXXXobj_Conn.BeginTransstr_Sql = "INSERT INTO table1("str_Sql = str_Sql & "column1"str_Sql = str_Sql & ", column2"str_Sql = str_Sql & ")"str_Sql = str_Sql & " SELECT Ａ.column1"str_Sql = str_Sql & ", A.column2"str_Sql = str_Sql & " FROM LINK_A.catalog_name.dbo.table2 AS A"str_Sql = str_Sql & " WHERE A.column1 0"str_Sql = str_Sql & ";"obj_Conn.Execute str_Sql----------------------------------------------------------When we make a Stored Procedure and run the following SQL, it freezes.INSERT INTO table1(column1,column2)SELECT A.column1, A.column2FROM LINK_A.catalog_name.dbo.table2 AS AWHERE A.column1 xxxxWe've also tried the following with the same results;INSERT INTO table1(column1,column2)SELECT A.column1, A.column2FROM [LINK_A].[catalog_name].[dbo].[table2] AS AWHERE A.column1 xxxxThe same thing happens when we try to run the "SELECT" by itself.SELECT TOP 1 @test=A.column1FROM LINK_A.catalog_name.dbo.table2 AS AWHERE A.column1 xxxxORDER BY A.column1What is going wrong here, and how do we need to change this so that itruns without timing out or freezing?

Hello All, i am trying to create a normal ASP.NET application using VS2005. Yesterday i was adding tables.. entering data from within "View Table Data" tab, but today i am unable to do any data insertion or updating except by entering the insert or update statement by hand. When updating data of existing record or trying to add new data, it reports that "Cell is readonly!". I did not modify any settings or configuration and actually did nothing to set it to readonly! I am quite confused to be honest and writing sql statements by hand is kinda time consuming for me if i want to update a single field. What can i do to re-enable data modifications from VS2005 without reporting readonly? Thanks,Rakan

I must release a new Db on 4/1 into an isolated small network (pier workgroup) and my choices are MSDE or Express. I'm new to both (MSDE yesterday, Express today). I am familiar with SQL Server and prefer using the tools with Express, but is it stable enough to use in this type of production environment?

I will be hosting my website in the next few months and doing more testing and I was having trouble finding a place to host the site that allows enough space for my sqlserver2005 database. I am estimating that the database will be around 40-50GB. Most hosting companies only give about 500MB for the database. Does anyone know of a company that provides more space? Also, is SQL Express production ready, or is it just for developing applications? If it is production ready, is there any "major" performace impact in using it over the full version. The reason I am asking is because hosting companies only give 500MB for a database, but alot more space for the web page. If I can put the SQLExpress file in the App_Data folder, then I will have more space. Does this even sound like it will work? Opinions are appreciated!

I get this error when the user inputs a word with an apostrophe:
Incorrect syntax near 't'. Unclosed quotation mark before the character string '
Using c# this is the input command:
oCom=new SqlCommand(string.Format("INSERT INTO [database] ([name],[address], [issue],[comments],[timestamp]) VALUES({0},'{1}','{2}','{3}','{4}",val[0],val[1],val[2],txtComment.Text,tmStamp),oCon);
When users enter a comment with an aprostrophe it gives me an error, using a session array and convert it to a string[].
Any ideas?
Thanks

I just set up a server with Windows 2003 Standard x64. I have a copy of SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition that I got from the Microsoft Launch event. On the back of the case, it gives version requirements for both the x86 and x64 versions. When I went to install it, it didn't ask me which one I wanted to install. When I look on the CD, I see different installers for x86 and x64 for various pre-requisites, like MSXML. As I'm installing SQL Server I see that it is installing most things to "C:Program Files (x86)" which is where 32-bit programs go.. I decided to let it finish. Most of the binaries and everything, include sqlservr.exe, are in the Program Files (x86) folder, but it did install a few things in Program Files, so it must be aware of the difference.
I checked task manager and, I see that the sqlservr.exe and SQLAGENT90.exe are NOT 32-bit processes. So, great, they're running natively in 64-bit mode! But when I look at the server options in SQL Server Management Studio, the patform is listed as NT INTEL X86. The memory page also shows an option to use AWE which according to the documentation is only available and relevant to 32-bit installations.
SO I'm pretty confused. Almost everything points to this being an x86 installation, but the running processes are running natively in x64. Does anyone know what's going on here?
I just tried to run the x64 version of SP1 for SQL 2005, and it told me that it cannot update x86 products, so I guess that clinches it. I'm still pretty confused and annoyed though. If this isn't x64, how can I get an x64 version of the same product, and will my license key work?

We are using SQL Server CE 3. So far, the product gets an A for ease of installation and its ability to deal with complex queries and but fails in a number of other areas. This is causing mjor project overruns.
1. Speed is a major concern. Small simple queries take an unreasonable tme to execute. This has required fundamental changes to current design patterms and a major re-write.
2. Bugs: Set identity_insert tablename on: tablename appears to be case sensitive (10 hours to track this beasty down)
3 Vista seems to have its own issues - refusing to cast fieldnames for simple column names
eg 'Select UID as DepositID ...' returns a "DepositID" under Windows XP but returns "UID" under Windows Vista.
Does this mean there is a different engine operating in the Vista environment. [I have since tracked this to a quirk in the SDAC interface ]
All this in a product we are intending to ship in the near future.
Ar others having these / similar problems?
Is there a register of known issues and workarounds?
Is the product under active repair / development ?
Why is behaviour different under Vista?

I created a little test application with SQL server. After everything was tested successfully I builded a setup file with Installshield. I installed the setup file on a different mashine. Everything runs without problems, but when I make entries to the database and I reopen the application no entry is saved. I am new to SQL server.
thx for any help

I'm trying to write an SP which takes a string parameter like '1,3,6,9' and then uses it in an IN clause of a SELECT statement to return a recordset, along the lines of:
SELECT
custname
FROM
mytable
WHERE theid IN @myparameter
...any ideas how to get this kind of thing to work. In the example, theid is a numeric value. What it needs to do, I guess, is do a string replacement of the parameter value, but the SP naturally enough attempts to compare the numeric theid value with the string @myparameter value and fails. It works OK if there's only one value in the string, because the server auto-converts the paremeter into a numeric, but if there are 2 or more values in the string then the server obviously can't do the conversion. How can I make this work?

We're using ADO disconnected recordsets. On SQL 2000, we could update these on the client (without propagating the changes to the server) even if the underlying view or table was non-updatable.
When running our apps against SQL 2005 (using the same client-side environment), we can no longer change any attributes of those disconnected recordsets, that connect to a non-updatable database object (the rest of the app runs fine, we can update all updatable database objects through disconnected recordsets) . Does SQL 2005 respond to such calls differently from SQL 2000, so that ADO recordsets are built in a new way (which makes them read-only in our setting)?
Thanks for any suggestions.
Rene
