Unable To Connect To SQL Server 2005 Worked Before

Mar 6, 2007

I am developing an app in VB.Net 2005, and I installed SQL Server 2005 locally on my machine. My app access multiple databases on SQL and has worked like a charm in the past. Today, when I go to access my app, I receive an error when trying to connect to the SQL database.

"An error has occured 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 connection"

As I said before, this is a local install and worked fine until today. I checked the services running and Here is what I have:

SQL Server Integration Services - Running
SQL Server FullText Search - Stopped
SQL Server(SQLEXPRESS) - Running
SQL SERVER (MSSQLSERVER) - Stopped <---------- I tried restarting this and it times out
SQL Server Analysis Services (MSSQLSERVER) - Stopped
SQL Server Reporting Services (MSSQLSERVER) - Stopped
SQL Server Browser - Stopped
SQL Server Agent (MSSQLSERVER) - Stopped

I am unable to start any of these services... they all time out. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Visual Studio 2005 Unable To Connect To SQL Server Express 2005

May 26, 2008

Hi,
I have VS Pro 2005 and SQL Server Express 2005 installed on an XP Pro machine. When using VS 2005, in the 'Server Explorer' window I can see and attach to two SQL Server databases that I have set-up. But if I attempt to access the same databases from withn the 'Solution Explorer' window I get the following dialog box message,

"
Required Component Missing (Dialog box heading)

Connections to SQL Server Files (*.mdf) require SQL Server Express to function properly. Please verify the installation of the component or download from the URL: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=49251
"

I have uninstalled and then reinstalled both VS 2005 and SQL Server Express twice but it has helped.

I don't understand why I'm getting this error because all of the server configuration tools and connection utilities seem to work fine but VS say's that SQL Server Express is not installed.


Thanks,

CLN

P.S.
I had another application that required MSDE 2000A to be installed. When I removed the other application I also removed MSDE 2000A and that's when the problem began.

Unable To Connect To SQL Server 2005 Though VBA

May 15, 2008

Hi, I'm not a DBA and our DBA is not available.

I get the following error for my connection string when I try to connect to a specific database on the SQL Server 2005:

Below is the connection string:

cnn = "data source=" & CompanyT & ";driver=VPC-002BALGORD\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDBFilename=" & ArInvoice.FilePath & ";username=sa;password=balgord;Trusted_Connection=no"
SQLdb.Open cnn

I get the following error:

[Microsoft][SQL Native Client][SQL Server]Login failed for user. the user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection

Mixed mode is set in the Server Security properties (SQL Server authenticaion and Windows Authentication).

I searched googled and everyone says set the authentication to mixed mode... It is set to mixed mode so I'm all out of ideas. I think if there was an error in the connection string it would give me a different error right? I dont know I'm all out of ideas, any help will be greatly appreaciated.

Thank you.

Users Are Unable To Connect To SQL Server 2005 Unless They Are In The Sysadmin Group

Nov 21, 2006

We are running SQL Server 2005 in a Windows 2003 domain and I have a situation where some of my users are unable to connect to the SQL Server unless they are a member of the sysadmin group. Any attempts by these users to login result in a login failed,

Error: 18456, Severity: 14, State: 11

Which indicates that it is a valid user who does not have access to this SQL Server.

I have been able to narrow the failures down to the following situation:

Create a user, TestUser1, as a member of 1 domain local group TestGroup1

Give TestGroup1 access to SQL (standard public access to master)

All good. Login succeeds.

Add TestUser1 to another domain local group TestGroup2

Attempt to login to SQL Server -> login failed.

Add the user explicitly -> login failed

Add one of the groups to sysadmin -> login succeeds

It seems that as long as the user is a member of more than one AD group, and none of those groups is a member of the sysadmin server role then the user is unable to login. Obviously having all of the users as sysadmin isn't a workable solution, has anyone seen this issue before?

I have been able to replicate a similar situation in our test domain, but in that case the issue is resolved by adding the users explicitly to SQL Server (still not an ideal solution).

Interestingly, if I run the same test in our test domain but use global groups, it works. But unfortunately the network admin tells me the groups must stay as local.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Unable To Connect To SSIS Or SSRS On SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition Server Via Desktop Connection

Mar 8, 2008

Hi,

I€™ve developed a BI system using the SQL Server 2005 Developer€™s Edition.

SSAS, SSIS and SSRS have been added to a SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition Server in preparation for delivering the developed database to this live environment.

So I am able to connect directly to the Database Engine, SSAS, SSIS and SSRS successfully from the actual SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition box which is sat on a Windows 2003 Server operating system.


However when I launch SQL Server Management Studio from a desk top PC which is connected to the SQL Server Standard Edition box I can€™t connect to either SSIS or SSRS, however I can connect to the Database Engine and it also seems that I can connect to SSAS OK.

I am using Windows Authentication where the I used a SQL Server account which exists with €śsysadmin€? permissions and this SQL Server account has the same login name as the Windows Server 2003 desktop login.

What do I do next please?

Unable To Connect To SQL Server 2005 (error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)

Jun 5, 2007

I've installed SQL2005 on a server already running SQL2K on my laptop. SQL2K is the default instance, so I'm trying to connect to SQL2005 using MYSERVERSQL2005 as the instance.

The steps that I've taken are to apply SP2 and enable remote connections (TCP & Named pipes). I've also made sure the SQL Server Browser service is running and enabled.

The error message that I get via SQL2005 client tools 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)"

I dont understand as to why i am unable to connect to 2005.

Any ideas?

[Express 2005] Unable To Connect To Datasource

Aug 21, 2006

I've never used SQL Server before. I installed VB 2005 Express (I've been working with VB since I was 16), and SQL Server 2005 Express.

I installed the server with all the default settings and created a small database to handle customer information (a remake of some Access and Oracle databases I've made before).

I'm told, however, each time I try to connect to the database via VB, that SQL Server isn't accepting remote connections...

Remote? It's on a local computer. So is VB...what is going on here? Is there a setting I've missed?

Worked In 2000 But Not In 2005

Feb 22, 2008

Hi there,
I have a query with a rather large (46 table) 1:1 join. Technically, I'm creating a view then trying to select from that view. I seem to be able to create the view ok but cannot resolve a select from it. The error message is:

Msg 8180, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Statement(s) could not be prepared.
Msg 191, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Some part of your SQL statement is nested too deeply. Rewrite the query or break it up into smaller queries.

Not Sure If Upgrade To SQL 2005 Worked?

Feb 27, 2008



I have SQL 2000 Standard edition installed on a Windows server 2003 on a virutal box. SQL was upgraded to 2005 but during the install wizard, it did not prompt me for the Instance Name to upgrade. When done, I see the SQL Management Studio and when I connect, my databases are listed in the studio but the version number says 8.0.760 across the top of management studion which is SQL 2000 sp3.

Enterprise Manager is still available. It appears SQL 2005 was installed side by side with SQL 2000. Does that sound correct?

I downloaded SQL 2005 standard edition from my open license agreement. Don't know if that makes a difference.

I also tried upgrading SQL 2005 via the command prompt and it still shows verison number 8.0.760.

Where am I going wrong?

Thanks.

SQL Server Unable To Connect... Please Help

Jan 14, 2000

I upgraded my 6.5 server to 7.0 two days ago running into small problems with the database upgrade wizard. I had some small problems with security which took me some time but was not that difficult once I figured it out. I then proceeded to switch back to 6.5 mode to transfer all the data that had been done that day to my development machine so I could then import it to the SQL 7.0 version. When I was done with the transfer I switched back successfully, started the server successfully, but I was unable to connect. I get the error "Connection could not be established...", so after several attempts to connect and shuting the server down I now am at a loss. The server runs fine in 6.5 mode but it will not connect in 7.0?? Tonight I am going to try to reinstall SP1, if that does not work I am going to try to reinstall SQL 7.0. Any suggestions???

Unable To Connect To Server

Nov 14, 2000

On a fresh installation of SQL Server 6.5, I have
opened the EM and registered the server but am unable
to connect. I get the error of 'A connection could not
be established to [ServerName]- [DB-Library] Unable
to connect: SQL Server is unavailable or does not exist.
General Network Error. Check your documentation.'

I've tried connecting with all different DB-Lib settings
to no avail. Ultimately, I want to use TCP/IP. I am,
however, able to connect to other SQL Server boxes from
this EM, just not the local server. I am able to stop
and start the services from Control Panel and from SQL
Service Manager.

Since I haven't been able to log into the local SQL Server,
I've registered the server in EM to log in with sa and a
blank password. I've already completely uninstalled SQL
and reinstalled it to see if that would help. It didn't.

Does anyone have any idea what the problem could be?

Thank you!
Toni

Unable To Connect To Server

Jan 20, 2003

Hi,

I am running SQL 2000 on Windows 2000 Server. The clients are running different OS ranging from Win 98/NT/2000. Although i am able to connect to the local host, but whenever i try to connect over the network the following error pops up :

unable to connect to server <server name>
Server : Msg 11, Level 16, State 1
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][TCP/IP Socket]General network error. Check your network documentation.

I checked up the event long on the server and found the following entry:

Event Type: Warning
Event Source: MSSQL$NETSDK
Event Category: (8)
Event ID: 19011
Date: 1/20/2003
Time: 2:12:32 PM
User: N/A
Computer: <computer name>
Description:
The description for Event ID ( 19011 ) in Source ( MSSQL$NETSDK ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. The following information is part of the event:
(SpnRegister) : Error 1355.

May i further clarify that this error started today n till last week end (saturday, i am

stationed in India) there was no problem and the users were able to connect to the server

without any problem. My network engineer feels that its an sql problem and has nothing to do with network related issues.

i would appreciate if anybody could help me out. thanking in advance

Unable To Connect To Server

Aug 2, 2001

From my Win98SE box with MDAC 2.6sp1, I can't connect to SQL (win2k, sql2k).
I've tried everything I know but nothing works.

I always get the following error:
Unable to connect to server 192.168.1.2
ODBC: Msg 0, Level 16, State 1
[Microsoft][ODBC Sql Server Driver] Timeout Expired

some additional info...
- both computers are in a workgroup, not in a domain.
- this is a home network and they're connected via a Linksys cable modem router
- another box on this same lan can connect to sql just fine, although it's
running win2k.
- all boxes have identical DSN, Subnet...settings
- I also installed Jet4.0sp1 just in case, but that didn't help either
- I'm primarily trying to connect via TCP, although I have tried Named Pipes
as well
- i can ping both boxes from each other just fine
- odbc ping fails

MDAC has worked beautifully for me for the last several years. Did MS
change something recently...or is there another problem?

Thanks, Andre

Unable To Connect To Server

Oct 25, 2005

Hello. I am very new to SQL Server. I've tried to look through other posts on the forum but did not find the solution I needed. Please help.

I have SQL Server running on Machine1 which I am able to connect to. What I want to do is connect to this server through a Machine2 that is on my network.

Both Machines run on WindowXP Professional

On the server of Machine1, I have:
1. Under the security tab, I have created a New Login using SQL Server Authentication (general tab), checked all server roles (server roles tab) and checked to permit all databases (in the database access tab)
2. On the server, went to properties -> security tab and allowed for SQL Server and Windows authentication

On Machine2 when I try to register the server of Machine1 through the Register SQL Server Wizard, I am able to see the server. However, when I use the newly created Login Name and password (from step 1 of above). I get a Login Failed for user message. When I try to connect to the server through Query Analyzer I also get an unable to connect to server message (Server: Msg 18456, Level 16, State1)

What else do I need to configure to make it work?

Thank you!

UNABLE TO CONNECT TO SERVER

Jul 20, 2005

If you place an image of your server on a rebuilt server, rename it andchange the SID. You get an error message “UNABLE TO CONNECT” when youuse the SQL Query analyzer on a desktop computer to connect to theserver (hosting the image). If you add the server (hosting the image)to the Windows2000 server domain/active server and restart the server(hosting the image), you get the following error message: "YOUR SQLSERVER INSTALLATION IS EITHER CORRUPT OR HAS BEEN TAMPERED WITH (UNKNOWNPACKAGE ID). PLEASE RERUN SETUP."Wouldn't you think changing the name, the sid and adding it to a domainwould be enough to access it. I even created a new ODBC connection.*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!

SQL Server Is Unable To Connect

Dec 12, 2006

Hi there,

There is a SQL instance (sql2005) and I am trying to add a new distribution. Replication wazard says:

SQL
Server is unable to connect to server 'SERVER1'. (New Publication
Wizard)SQL
Server is unable to connect to server 'SERVER1'. (New Publication
Wizard)

SQL Server replication
requires the actual server name to make a connection to the server.
Connections through a server alias, IP address, or any other alternate
name are not supported. Specify the actual server name, 'SERVER1'. (Replication.Utilities)

There is the only local instance of the server on local computer and 'SERVER1' is actual name.

What is wrong?

Xp_cmdshell Statement Worked In SQL2000 Not In 2005

Dec 7, 2007

Code Block
Hi All,

I've got a stored procedure called from a trigger on another database. There are two xp_cmdshell statements in the procedure. One writes a couple variables, passed from the trigger, into a text file. The second fires off an executable that uses the text file via a batch file.

Here's the code that worked on the old 32bit SQL2000 box





Code Block
begin
declare @cmd varchar(150)
select @cmd = 'echo ' + @sVariable1 + ',' + @sVariable2 +' > c:aFolderTextFile.txt'
exec master..xp_cmdshell @cmd

declare @cmd2 varchar(150)
select @cmd2 = 'c:aFolderRun.bat'
exec master..xp_cmdshell @cmd2
end






The new box is 64bit SQL2005. When invoked the stored procedure executes without an error. The textfile is written sucessfully. But, the executable called from the second xp_shell statement does not produce the expected result. Because there is no error I'm having trouble determining where the failure lies.


To troubleshoot the problem I've tried:



Running the batch file from the command prompt in the system32 directory... Success


Using sp_xp_cmdshell_proxy_account to be sure of the credentials of the running xp_cmdshell... Failure

My questions:

Does 64 Bit SQL2005 have a different set of parameters when invoking an executable from xp_cmdshell? ie Do I need to rewrite the batch file?
Is there another way call an executable, SQLCMD maybe?

Any help is appreciated...




Code Block
The batch file if you're curious:

"c:Program Files (x86)someVendersomeAppsomeEXE.exe" "C:aFolderTextFile.txt"

Unable To Connect To SQL Server Database.

Oct 15, 2007

Hi, I am working through "Sams Teach Yourself ASP Dot NET 2.0 in 24 Hours"
I am upto hour 20 where it says
Configuring an ASP.NET Website to Support Membership
To configure our website to support membership, we must launch the ASP.NET Website Administration Tool. To accomplish this, either click the ASP.NET
Configuration icon at the top of the Solution Explorer or click the Website menu's ASP.NET Configuration option. Either way will open a web browser pointed to a page through which the ASP.NET site can be configured. Figure 20.1 shows the ASP.NET Website Administration Tool.
To add user account support, click the Security link. This will take you to the Security screen shown in Figure 20.2. From this screen, you can specify the user accounts in your system, what roles for users exist, and the access rules for users.
However when I click security I get the following error message;
"There is a problem with your selected data store. This can be caused by an invalid server name or credentials, or by insufficient permission. It can also be caused by the role manager feature not being enabled. Click the button below to be redirected to a page where you can choose a new data store."
"The following message may help in diagnosing the problem: Unable to connect to SQL Server database."
If I test the provider I get this error;
"Provider Management""Could not establish a connection to the database.""If you have not yet created the SQL Server database, exit the Web Site Administration tool, use the aspnet_regsql command-line utility to create and configure the database, and then return to this tool to set the provider."
I am using MS VWD Express with MS SQL Express. I have run the 'aspnet_regsql' tool on my database which the book fails to mention and verified that the tables were created correctly. I have tried copying the MDF file directly into my 'app_data' directory but this made no difference. I have googled these errors and nothing seems to help. I can connect to the database through a 'SqlDataSource' and have had no trouble with the database in the previous sections of the book. I think it may have something to do with how I setup SQL Express or database permissions, I hope someone can help. Thanks in advance.

Unable To Connect To SQL Server From ASP.NET Web App (Using Tutorial)

Jun 2, 2008

Hello everyone, I've been using the tutorial located here.I am using Microsoft Visual Studio 8.0.50727.42, Microsoft SQL Server 2005, and Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0.50727 SP1.The tutorial uses the SQL Express version and I cannot get it to connect to the standard SQL Server 2005 version.  I have used the website ConnectionStrings.com and the whitepaper located here and I wasn't able to get my web app talking to the database through many attempts.I am using a database in Microsoft SQL Server 2005 named SecurityTutorials.  This is located on my local machine.  There is a login named SecurityTutorials and a user in the SecurityTutorials database named SecurityTutorials who has default schema dbo, who owns the db_owner schema, and has role membership to db_datareader, db_datawriter, and db_ddladmin.  The password of this user does match the password in the connection string in web.config, I have verified this multiple times.The problem comes when I open up the CreatingUserAccounts page of this tutorial.  When I hit the button 'Create the User Account,' nothing happens.  And no record is inserted into the database.Here is my web.config file (if you need any other files then please let me know and I can post them but it is my understanding that this is the only file responsible for the database connection):<?xml version="1.0"?><!--     Note: As an alternative to hand editing this file you can use the     web admin tool to configure settings for your application.
