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.

The above was what I get whenever I tried connecting to SQL Server database. I've got Windows XP Pro SP2, IIS 5.1, and is currently using Visual Web Developer.
How do I rectify my problem of connecting to an SQL Server?
We have the issue of wanting to restore an MSSQL database (.BAK) but are unable to "Connect" to the existing database; but we are able to "Start" the database currently.
When we are unable to perform a "Connect", then under "All Tasks" you don't get the option to "Restore Database"
I am hoping there is a way around this and still a possibility of doing a restore without having to do an entire install of MSSQL again and then a restore?
I'm having a strange problem with this but I know (and admit) that the problem is on my PC and nowhere else. My firewall was causing a problem because I was unable to PING the database server, switching this off gets a successful PING immediately. The most useful utility to date is running netstat -an in the command window. This illustrates all the connections that are live and ports that are being listed to. I can establish a connection both by running

Both these utilities show as establishing a connection in netstat so I am able to connect the database server every time, this worked throughout yesterday and has continued this morning.
The problem is when I attempt to use SQL Server Management Studio. When I attempt to connect to tcp:sql5.hostinguk.net, 1433 nothing shows in netstat at all. There is an option to encrypt the connection in the connection properties tab in management studio, when I enable this I do get an entry in netstat -an, see below:
Amost as if it's trying the different ports but you get this time_wait thing. The error message is more meaningful and hopefull because I get:
A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the pre-login handshake. (provider: SSL Provider, error: 0 - The certificate chain was issued by an authority that is not trusted.) (.Net SqlClient Data Provider)
I would expect this as the DNS has not been advised to encrypt the conection.
This is much better than the : Login failed for user 'COX10289'. (.Net SqlClient Data Provider) that I get, irrespective of whether I enter a password or not.
This is on a XP machine trying to connect to the remote webhosting company via the internet. I can ping the server I have enabled shared memory and tcp/ip in protocols, named pipes and via are disabled I do not have any aliases set up No I do not force encryption I wonder if you have any further suggestions to this problem?
Hi, iam using VS2008 for developing an application. From my code iam mentioning a connectionString in which iam using a database named ASAOPS.When iam trying to connect to it with a user named asauser it is throwing an exceptions that "asauser is not with the trusted sql connection" for one time and "login failed for the asauser" for later time. can anyone help me in solving this problem?
I am in the process of installing and configuring Reporting Services and have run across a problem... I created a domain user to run the service, configured the virtual directories and created the database using this domain user. However when I browse to http://localhost/Reports I get the following error:
The report server cannot open a connection to the report server database. A connection to the database is required for all requests and processing. (rsReportServerDatabaseUnavailable) Get Online Help
Cannot open database "ReportingServices" requested by the login. The login failed. Login failed for user 'DOMAINuser'.
This is totally weird, since I've given the user every possible right in SQL Management Studio... I even tried giving it Administrator rights, to no effect. I can do a remote dekstop connection to the machine with this user and connect to the SQL server using the Management Studio and windows authentication just fine... Something I've missed?
I have installed SQL Express 2005 on a Windows 2003 server. I am able to connect when I use "SQL Server Management Studio Express" However when i try the command: sqlcmd -S 127.0.0.1 i got the following error message:
"C:Documents and Settingsadm>sqlcmd -S 127.0.0.1 HResult 0x2, Level 16, State 1 Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server [2].

when i click on ASP.NET Configuration and then security it opens a page that says 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. tryed doing what it sayd but didnt go.

I recently installed VS2005 Prof edition and SQLExpress 2005 and have been teaching myself C# using the book
Microsoft Visual C# 2005 step by step.
I have done all the examples including the examples on databases without problems up to chap 27 which is trying to demonstrate adding security to a web site using the ASP.NET Web Site Administration tool.
After opening the tool and clicking on "security" the error message appears.
Unable to connect to SQL server database
As I understand it a database provider AspNetSqlProvider is supposed to create a database called ASPNET.MDF in the App_Data folder of the web site. Needless to say nothing is produced.
I have read various posts and done the following without success.
1 explicitly stated servr.exe as an exception in windows firewall
2 Run Aspnet_regsql at the command prompt. It bombs when I try to put a database name into the list box or even just click on the list box to see what it reveals. ( unfortunately I do not have the exact error but it sugested that it did not have read/write access to something
I do not really understand this . I am just an old fashioned amateur C++ programmer who thought he better get into the new world!
I get the following error trying to use ASP.NET configuration

If I try to run the application it starts up OK but it bombs when you try to put a password in because the database in App_Data has not been created.
hi... i am new to ASP2.0 and i was trying to use the properties associated with the profile class. here what i was trying to do... in "Web.config" <anonymousIdentification enabled="true"/> <profile enabled ="true"> <properties> <add name="p1" allowAnonymous ="true"/> </properties> </profile> in "Default.aspx.cs" protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e) { if (!Page.IsPostBack) { Profile.p1 = "Welcome"; LabelResult.Text = Profile.p1; } else{ Profile.p1 = "you'v been here"; LabelResult.Text = Profile.p1; } } but i had the exception ( Unable to connect to SQL Server database) at "App_Code.qzomymsu.0.cs" public virtual string p1 { get { return ((string)(this.GetPropertyValue("p1"))); } set { this.SetPropertyValue("p1", value); } } i know the problem has something to do with providers, and i want to store the values to an XML file.... thank you for helping.
Hi Eevryone: I seem to have corrupted my ASP.net Web Site Administration Tool some how. It worked fine a few days ago, but reloaded SQL Server 2005 Express Edition W Adv Services SP1 yesterday I can not get past the "Unable to connect to SQL Server database" error. I have run the aspnetdb.exe and created both a aspnetdb.mdf and loaded the tables to into a existing mdf. I have checked all the permissions. So any ideas on what I am doing wrong, or can you point me to some documentation on the 'AspNetSqlProvider'

New forum member here, and pretty new to SQL Server. My question is I'm having an impossible time trying to connect MS Access on Computer A to a database running on SQL Server 2k (SP3) on Computer B. Every time I try to create a new ODBC connection on Computer A, I get the dreaded Server Error 17 (SQL Server does not exist or access denied). I have no problems making the ODBC connection on the computer running SQL Server (Computer B).
My connection settings are as follows:
Computer A name = MAINDESKTOP Computer B name (contains SQL Server) = HOMELAPTOP Workgroup name = WORKGROUP
Server Properties:
Name = HOMELAPTOP Authentication = SQL Server and Windows Registered SQL Server Properties = Use SQL Server authentication, and I'm using a login name and password Server Network Utility = TCP/IP network protocol enabled, with default port 1433 Server Client Network Utility = TCP/IP network, default port 1433
Under "Security", I have created a new login using SQL Server Authentication called "bradley", and have assigned a password to the new login. I've noticed that when I open the login properties dialogue, there are always more ***'s in the password field than the number of characters I originally used, but I suspect that's normal. I have assigned a database called "Costume" to "bradley", and have verified that the permission is checked on the Database Access tab for user "bradley".
Under "DatabasesCostume", I have verified that there is a user called "bradley" with the same login name and user name.
No matter what I try, I can't get Computer A to connect to Computer B's SQL Server database. I have no problems with any other types of connections (pinging, internet, file transfers).
We have a problem to connect to a specific database on our local network from a specific Vista machine. Several other XP and Vista machines are able to connect to the database without any problem. However, with the two latest Vista machines we received, it is impossible to connect to the database. In Microsoft SQL server Management studio express, we have the error 26 "error locating server/instance specified". We are sure the server name we entered is correct. We suppose the server is correctly configured as we are able to connect from other computers. From the machines that are not able to connect to the database, we can connect without problem to other databases. We also see the server, where the database is, on the network servers list in Microsoft SQL server Management studio. . The version of the components are: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio Express 9.00.3042.00 Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC) 6.0.6000.16386 (vista_rtm.061101-2205) Microsoft MSXML 3.0 4.0 6.0 Microsoft Internet Explorer 7.0.6000.16575 Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0.50727.312 Operating System 6.0.6000 We verified we have the same version of components on the Vista machine from which the connection is successful. The network database has the version 8.0. We are usinng sql server authentification method. We try to specify the IP address instead of the server name in the connection string. We also tried to specify the port. We also tried to disable the firewall. Unfortunatetly, we are not able to connect to this database. Any suggestion ?
I would like to setup the membership and role in web administrator tool, however, under Security section, I got the error message of "Unable to connect to SQL database".

I am using web developer 2008 and SQL Server 2005. Please advice me how to tackle this problem.
I'm new to asp.net and databases and I'm currently working my way through SAMs Teach Yourself ASP.I am up to working with databases and have successfully installed MSDE using the sql2kdesksp3.exe file. However, when I try to create a new database through the web matrix project I get an 'unable to connect' error. I have tried removing and re-installing the database and I've also re-installed it using the latest file from the MS web site but I still get the same error. I've checked the obvious...that the msde service is running, password is correct, and that checks out ok.Has anyone had a similar problem and resolved it?Thanks.
We are unable to connect with Client SQL database server using VPN connection, even we are able connect with their intranet site.
We tried to connect using IP address, but no success. After that tried to ping that server with server name and IP address using command prompt, but got request time out error.
I recently created a program that connects to a Microsoft SQL database that was stored on my computer and it worked fine. As soon as I tried to connect to the same database via a network drive I got an error stating that "The file Y:Filename.mdf is on a network path that is not supported for database files.". I can't seem to get it to work, if anybody has any ideas what I'm doing wrong I would appreciate your help.
Im getting this error when trying to set up a cache dependency...are there any special permissions etc?From CS:SqlCacheDependency dep = new SqlCacheDependency("MySite-Cache", "Products");Cache.Insert("Products", de.GetAllProductsList(), dep); From connectionStrings.config:<add name="SiteDB" connectionString="Data Source=localhost,[port]SQLEXPRESS;Integrated Security=true;User Instance=true; AttachDBFileName=|DataDirectory|ASPNETDB.MDF" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />Also tried this using my machinename<add name="SiteDB" connectionString="Data Source=<machinename>,[port]SQLEXPRESS;Integrated Security=true;User Instance=true; AttachDBFileName=|DataDirectory|ASPNETDB.MDF" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" /> From web.config: <caching> <sqlCacheDependency enabled="true" pollTime="10000"> <databases> <add name="MySite-Cache" connectionStringName="SiteDB" pollTime="2000"/> </databases> </sqlCacheDependency> </caching> EDIT: So making progress I can't seem to get the table registered for cache dependency:The sample i have says"aspnet_regsql.exe -E -S .SqlExpress -d aspnetdb -t Customers -et"and the command line response is "Enabling the table for SQL cache dependency..An error has happened. Details of the exception:The table 'Customers' cannot be found in the database."Where does this "Customers" table come from? There is obviously not an application specific "Customers" table in aspnetdb I'm confused probably more by the example than anything....
I have had this issue just pop up. I have local users who can connect fine, but my users that require connection by VPN cannot connect. I get the server not available or access denied error. I did confirm that the VPN'ers are connected to the network correctly and can see that their shares and mappings are correct. Any ideas? Thanking you all in advance!!
I just upgraded from Windows XP Pro to Windows Vista Bussiness and tried to reinstall SQL Server 2005 Developers Edition. After the installation i downloaded (using microsoft windows update) and installed all the service packs for sql and vista available.
My problem is when i open sql server management studio and try to connect to my default instance using windows authentication and database engine, an 18456 error occurs.
I enabled all the protocols and all the ports I disabled windows firewall and antivirus (eset nod32) I installed all service packs available I have also installed Visual Studio 2005 without installing sqlexpress
But nothing happens!
Please i am very desperate, any information will be gratefully accepted.
This is my installation Information

Hello everybody I wrote a vb.net win app that uses a mssql 2005 express DB. On my localcomputer everything worked without a problem. Now I wish to deploy my app on a remote computer (that has mssql 2005 express installed), so. I added an app setup project to my project using the vs2005 setup tool, installed the app on the remote computer, and copied the mdf file to the remote computer. I'm able to see the DB through the remote computer mssql manager, But when I try to start the app on the remote computer I get this error massage : A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the pre-login handshake. error: 0 - No process is on the other end of the pipe.) my connectionstring (in the config file) looks like that : <connectionStrings> <add name="Info_Manager.My.MySettings.MaxinetConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=DOTAN-XPSQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataMaxinet.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" /> <add name="Info_Manager.My.MySettings.MaxinetConnectionString1" connectionString="Data Source=DOTAN-XPSQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataMaxinet.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" /> </connectionStrings> by the way changing the user instance attribute to "false" didn't help. Does anybody know how to fix this problem.
Every time i reboot my NT Server and the SQL server service starts up. It logs this message to the event Viewer
Severity: 9 Error:10004, OS: 11001 Unable to connect: SQL Server is unavailable or does not exist. General network error. Check your documentation.ConnectionOpen (gethostbyname()()).
I don`t have any problem with the databases, all the users are able to connect to server and database without any problems, looks like everything is working at its best. But i am little concerned about this error message.
Everything has been working fine our SQL Server (lets call it Server A) (v2000 under NT 4), however sometime over the weekend it is unable to connect to one of our other SQL Servers (Server B).
In the Event Viewer I found this error: SuperSocket info: Failed to get Exclusive port use(MSAFD Tcpip (TCP/IP)): Error 10013.
Everything on this server appears to be working fine, as in everything can connect to Sever A that needs to, but Server B can't connect to A, nor is it working the other way.
Also, Server A SQL Services run on port 2006, and B is on the standard 1433. Everything has been working with this up until today?
