Trouble Connecting Remotely To Sql2005 From Other Machines.
Sep 20, 2007
New sql2005 install as a named instance and having trouble connecting from remote machines.
I noticed on our other servers that the "Public" server role is listed in permissions (right-click over the sqlmgr connection for the dialog, then permissions).
When I try to add the role to the new server it doesn't save! This is the only setting that's different, can't connect using sqlmgr from other machines to this server so any ideas on other settings to look at appreciated.
I create a sql user who is part of sysadmin, securityadmin, setupadmin and serveradmin roles.
When I try to connect through odbc using this user from other machines, it works fine. But if I remove it from sysadmin, I get an error message Connection Failed:
SQLState : '28000' SQL Server Error: 18456 [Microsoft][SQL Server Native Client 11.0][SQL Server][Login Failed for user:user1]
I am trying to remotely connect to a SQL 2005 Instance on a cluster. I see the following error:
No retry on exception System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: 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 have enabled TCP/IP , Named Pipes on the node. I have turned off IPSec on the clients as well. I am using the following connection string : "Integrated Security=SSPI;server=servernameinstancename;Pooling=false;database=TrialDB"
I am trying to install the Wsus 3.0 and store your database on a server-database SQL2005 SP2 remotely.
When I come on screen Database Option I choose Using an existing database server on this computer I put my <serverName> <instanceName> ai seems the message below:
Did I thought that all procedures on the Net, such as enabling Remote Connections, signed in sql remote machine using sqlcmd, picked up the article http://support.microsoft.com/kb/909801 for authentication kerberos (my authentication this via NTLM do not know why) but still did not work, someone already went through this problem?
I have a sql server 2005 remotely, need to connect from client using sql management studio. I am unable to connect from one of the client machine and able to connect from different machine.
The tcp/ip, named pipes and sql browser is enabled in server and windows firewall is off in client.
I am getting (provider: sql network interfaces, error 26 - error locating server/instance specified)
i have installed sql server 2005 standard on our server. i need to now connect to the server from a client machine within our network. do i need to install just the client tools? what are the other steps in connecting? im new to sql server, so thanks for the help.
I'm new to MSSQL. At my work place, I'm using MSSQL and using SQL Query Analyzer to run queries and view all my database tables and structures.
Now, I can work remotely at home for the time being. So, how do I get SQL Query Analyzer and be able to connect remotely to my database at work?
I've downloaded SQL Server 2005 Express and it comes with SQL Server Management Studio, which looks similar to SQL Query Analyzer. The problem is though, how would I remotely connect to my database server at work? Is it possible to do this using SQL Server 2005 express?
One thing I was advised to do was configure the TCP/IP Port number from 1433 to 1435. However, I do not see an option to configure that nor do not know how to connect remotely (I do have the IP, User, and Pass).
I have SQL 05 and SQL 200o on same server . SQL 05 version is a named inatnce. But when i try to connect it from my computer first it doest show the name instance in the list and when i manulay write its name i got this error.
"A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the pre-login handshake. 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: 0 - No process is on the other end of the pipe.) (.Net SqlClient Data Provider)"
I went to check that remote connectiona nd SQL browsing is on or not but both were on . any ideas why this is happening and why the name is not coming in list of Server.
I have checked the connection string passsword etc, and all are correct.
I have tried SQL Server Management Studio, aspnet_regsql.exe etc and all give the following 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 - No such host is known.)or

(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 used the surface config to enable TCP/IP and named pipes.
I am using osql to connect to my remote MSSQL server. I am able to get a prompt for password and telnet to 1433 just fine, so I conclude this is not related to firewall. When I try to connect I get:
C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server80ToolsBinn>osql -S xx.xx.xx.xx -U test
Password: [DBNETLIB]SQL Server does not exist or access denied. [DBNETLIB]ConnectionOpen (Connect()).
When I try to connect from 'localhost':

This is Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.1399.06 and both local and remote connections are allowed. Logs don't show up anything.
I have a sql server 2005 remotely, need to connect from client using sql management studio. I am unable to connect from one of the client machine and able to connect from different machine.

I am getting (provider: sql network interfaces, error 26 - error locating server/instance specified)
I have 2 machines using SQL Server 2005 developer edition. I am able to connect to each of them locally without any problem. But when I try using one SQL Server as server and another machine's SQL Server as client, I am not able to connect. I get the following error:
TITLE: Connect to Server ------------------------------
A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the pre-login handshake. 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: 0 - No process is on the other end of the pipe.) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 233).
I have checked for "Allow Remote Connections" property turned on for TCP/IP.
I am using SQL Server Authetication mode.
I have checked for SQL Server Browser service to be running.
Firewall on the server is also allowing the sql server traffic to pass.
But still not able to connect. What could be the problem connecting the 2 machines.
hi. im still a bit new in handling SQL and im having problems connecting to a remote sql server 2005. i have already configured the surface area to accept remote connections and am using the connection string:
SqlConnection lasConnection = new SqlConnection("user id = sa;" +
"password = 12345; server = Naomi;" +
"Trusted_Connection = yes;" +
"database = LAS;" +
"connection timeout=30");
and it returns an error of "System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Login failed for user 'NAOMIGuest' " however, when i use the application on the same computer as the server, it has no problems connecting at all. could please point me to the right direction on how i should face this problem?
I've been trying to configure remote connections to my sql server express to no avail.
First here are some constants to clear some things up: - OS: Windows XP Pro - SQL Express version: April CTP release - Windows Firewall: disabled (to avoid any problems there) - Network type: two computers connected a router. - Router firewall: Enabled (I may be wrong but the router firewall only blocks external traffic, so I left it on.)
First, I configured my SQL server to allow remote connections in the SQL Surface Area Configuration. (Set it to both TCP/IP and named pipes)
Second, I enabled and configured sql server browser.
Third, I enabled TCP/IP and named pipes in the 'Protocols for SQL Express' option of the SQL Server Configuration Manager.
According to http://blogs.msdn.com/sqlexpress/archive/2005/05/05/415084.aspx I have done everything I need to (including edit the registry to enable the SQL Server Browser service) and the error I continue to get is:
"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) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: -1)"
So I tinkered and had no success in messing with anything that would fix it. Although, ***when I browsed for network servers on different machine, the server instance DID show up in the list***. So I find it odd that it can find the instance when browsing, but fails to 'find' it when making a connection.
So I didn't stop there, I decided to try the non-sql server browser method of remotely connecting: specifying the IP.
I went back to the blog of instructions referenced above and re-did the steps, this time specifying a TCP Port for the server instance and then after specifying the port on the remote computer connection string, and attempting to connect, I get 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.) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 10060)"
I've done all I know how, read all the possible blogs I can, and nothing's come up. If anyone can shed some light on me, I'd pay you 1 billion pretend dollars. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
Only the server administrator user can connect to SSIS from remote workstations. All other users encounter "Access denied". What security settings are necessary to permit regular user access to SSIS? Firewalling is not an issue. SSIS is running and works fully for the server administrator user. All users can manage the Database with SSMS just fine; only SSIS cannot be accessed by regular users.
i have a Vb application on an client pc that has to connect with a sql databse file on the server. the connection string is : connectionString="Data Source=<servername>SQLEXPRESS,1433;Initial Catalog=TBSD.mdf; User Id=sa;Password=sa;integrated security=false;" /> </connectionStrings>
if i run the application i get the error message : "login failed for user 'sa'.
If i try to connect remotely to sql server express with sql server managment studio express i can connect without any problems.
I have installed SQL Server 2005 onto a server and then on my client machine I have installed SQL Server 2005 and the Server Management Studio.
When installing it on the server I chose all the defaults so have not setup an sql username or password to connect as I thought I could use Windows.
I go to the Server Management and registered servers, create a new one and enter the ip address of the server and choose Windows Authentication. The following error keeps appearing though and I am not sure what settings/where to check:
Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection. (.Net SqlClient Data Provider)
I have checked and think port 1443 is open on the server, tcpip is enabled but when I choose Windows authentication I cannot enter a username or password as it is greyed out. It has completed the username but no password and these are not the correct ones to connect to the server - I wish to wish the same one I use for RDC.
Or should I try SQL Authentication and if so how would I set this up? Cannot see on the server in SQL Configuration where I could set this?
Hope someone who knows a lot more than me on this can help!
Thanks for your time - this has been driving me mad for days now and everything I print off the internet is not help so any feed back or more useful links to loo up would be great.
I am running SQL2005 SP1 Standard Edition in Win2k3 , when i try to install SP2, at the initial stage itself it fails with login failure message. But with the same SA password i am able to login to the Management studio. I tried with Windows authentication , that also fails. Service is running with local system account and i am logged in the server using the administrator user.
I am having difficulty connecting to a SQL DB in my ASP page. Each time I run my application I receive the following error, "Login failed for user 'CX259ASPNET'". This is obviously something to do with permissions. I am all out of ideas but I will list the things I have already attempted to see if I either missed something or somebody can add to what I have already done.
1. In SQL Server I right-clicked the db -> properties -> security tab -> selected the option button to "SQL Server and Windows" instead of "Windows Only". 2. I installed SP3 and changed the sa password. 3. I created a new user under my db using the ASPNET account listed. I then changed the permissions to allow selecting, update, insert and delete access. 4. I also created a new user under my db using the IUSR account listed. I changed the permissions to the same settings as above.
I did a search on google which provided with all of the information above, but I am still stuck and hoping that this is a common problem and will be easy to fix.
Below is the code which I am attempting to use.
Private Sub Page_Load(ByVal sender As System.Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles MyBase.Load If Not Page.IsPostBack Then Dim strConnString As String = _ "Data Source=(local);" & _ "Initial Catalog=Names;" & _ "Integrated Security=SSPI;" Dim objConn As New SqlConnection(strConnString) Dim strSQL As String = "SELECT * FROM [Names]" Dim objCmd As New SqlCommand(strSQL, objConn)
objConn.Open() MyDataGrid.DataSource = objCmd.ExecuteReader MyDataGrid.DataBind() objConn.Close() End If End Sub
ok, we have a development server in our office and it has SQL running on it. If i remote over to that machine i can open the database administrator and create tables and things just fine. I use the windows login.
now when i try to goto my machine and open up visual studio or dreamweaver to try to make a dataset connection it will not connect to the server. I get a message in visual studio saying it is probly because the default settings prohibit remote connections to the DB. I'm also doing the wondows login mode from the remote computer.
So is there a way i can change it so i can have remote access? i dont see how else they expect anyone to be able to do any development from a remote machine elsewise...
I'm trying to use the bcp utility to create a format file to import data from a flat file. However, bcp cannot connect to the local instance of SQLEXPRESS. I am able to connect using both Visual Studio 2005 and SSMSE. Here is what I get:
snip
C:>bcp SQLEXPRESS.SAMS1DB2.Organization_01A format nul -c -f Organization_01A.fmt -T
SQLState = 08001, NativeError = 10061
Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]TCP Provider: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.
Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]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.
snip
SAMS1DB2 is the database name. Organization_01A is the table name.
I'm new to SQL Server but it appears to be set up to allow remote connections, using Windows Authentication, TCP/IP and Named Pipes are enabled. I have also tried to connect using sqlcmd -S and I get a similar msg.
Hi I am new at this. I have a little program written in C# in asp.net. The program basically accesses a database and stores new records. The database is supposedly already attached to MSDE so I am able to see the tables of the database inside asp.net. I can click on the individual slots of the table and modify the datas manually. However, I want to connect to the database from my C# program and be able to input data into the database via the website that the C# program produces. After I type in the data into the website and click the submit button on the website, I get an error page that says this: Login failed for user 'sa' the line of code thats causing this error is: con = new SqlConnection("data source=(local)\NetSdk; initial catalog=Friends; user id=sa"); Why is it not able to connect to the database?
I am doing one of the Microsoft virtual labs "Creating ASP.NET Web Applications with C# - Part 2" using Visual Web Developer Express. I am trying to fill a gridview with database information, but it gives me 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. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)".This is on the local machine that I am executing the code. public void BindGrid(string sortfield) { //Create DataAdapter to fetch data from Prodcuts table SqlDataAdapter myCommand = new SqlDataAdapter("select * from Products", myConnection); //Create dataset and fill it with Product data DataSet ds = new DataSet(); myCommand.Fill(ds, "Products"); //Bind Product data to Datagrid DataView Source = ds.Tables["Products"].DefaultView; Source.Sort = sortfield; dgProducts.DataSource = Source; dgProducts.DataBind(); } It stops on the line "myCommand.Fill(ds, "Products"); and points out the error mentioned earlier. I am not sure what to do...any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks in advance, and I apologize as well if I have not pointed out enough information.

Hello, I'm using Visual Studio 2003 and I need to be able to connect to an SQL Server 2005 Express database on the same machine using ASP.NET pages, but I'm having difficulty getting the pages to make a connection. I'm new to ASP.NET and I'm probably making some totally elemental mistake. I'd appreciate any assistance anyone can offer.

Hi, I have SBS 2003 installed and have currently been working with Sharepoint. I upgraded to SQL Server 2005 using the methods described in the documentation provided on the SBS CD, which can be found here: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=60500
I followed the document step by step and the installation completed without any problems, however after installation when trying to access a website I created in Sharepoint prior to upgrading I ran into this error: "Unable to connect to database." That error led me to the following Microsoft support article: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/823287
I followed all three methods in that article to ensure that the server is running and that it is configured properly, but it didn't change a thing.
Looking in eventvwr I noticed the following:
Failure Audit: Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE'.
Followed by:
Error: #50070: Unable to connect to database
It sounds as if Network Service doens't have the appropriate permissions to access the SQL server, but I defined those permissions in the SQL Server 2005 upgrade following what the upgrade manual provided on the CD told me.
I have been fooling around with this issue for a long time now, does anyone have any ideas?
Help... I am new to C# and .net and I am trying to build a insert page with a couple of drop down controls where I pull a categoryID and subcategoryID to populate my dropdown controls from a MS sql2005 express database. I am using a book that only shows how to build the script and access a access database and I am getting this error when trying to pull up the page:
Description: An error occurred during the compilation of a resource required to service this request. Please review the following specific error details and modify your source code appropriately.

Below is my code and I am not sure what the syntax needs to be when connecting to a ms sql datasource. Thanks in advanced :)
I am developing a web application. The database required for the application is in SQL Server 2005 installed machine. In another machine where the IIS 6.0 alone is installed, the compiled application is present. How do I connect web server with SQL Server 2005 so as to access data?
I have 2 boxes, 1 webserver and 1 db server, both behind a firewall. For the past few years I have been connecting from the webserver to the db server using a public IP. I have 2 NIC's in the DB server so I now want to connect locally to reduce our companies bandwidth charges, and hopefully make things a tiny bit faster too. I'm not sure if it will make a difference, but should be interesting.
I'm having problems setting this up tho, what steps do I need to take to make sure it works properly?
When I check my DB servers IP configuration I get 2 NICs'
One configured as an external IP, the other configued as 169.xxx.xx.xxx
I am trying to connect using the 169.xxx.xx.xx Is this the correct approach? I am getting TimeOut Errors as seen below
I looked in my SQL configuration and its set to allow remote connections however, and since I was connecting over a public IP before, this seems contridicting.
Any help is much appreciated.
Thanks once again!!! :) mike123

This is my first post ever so forgive me if this is too basic a question.
I have an Access 2000 database that I'm trying to make into a SQL 2005 Express database. Both databases are on the same machine (I've given up with the networking of this) and, after straightening out several problems I've ran into one I can't seem to fix.
Using the Upsizing Wizard in Access 2000 I try to connect to SQL 2005 Express but I keep getting this error: http://www.paulmauer.com/SQL%20connection%20error.doc
SInce both programs are on the same machine I don't understand what is happening. Any help would be appreciated.
