Unable To Start T-SQL Debugging. Could Not Connect To Computer 'servername'.
Nov 9, 2007
I thought I would post how I got remote t-sql debugging working in my environment. Hope it might help someone.
I have two domains, DomainA and DomainB. DomainB has a one way external trust to DomainA. Dev Vista machine running VS 2005 is in DomainA logged in as user DomainAauser. SQL 2005 running on test Windows Server 2003 DC machine in DomainB under user DomainBuser. When trying to 'step into stored procedure' in VS, whether my data connection used windows authentication or sql server authentication, I would get the 'Unable to start T-SQL degbuggin...'. I could debug t-sql when I logged into the domain controller (console or rdp) and running VS on the server. I changed the SQL Server service to run under the DomainAauser account and I can now remote t-sql debug using both window authentication and sql server authentication. Hope this may help anyone that might run into this.
I am trying to connect to SQL Server through Query Analyzer but getting following error: (SQL Server is at remote web server where i have my website hosted.)
Unable to connect to server [server IP]:
Server: Msg 6, Level 16, State 1 [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][dbnetlib] Specified SQL server not found.
I have searched this forum for this error and performed following workaround as suggested in some threads-
1. checked and set "TcpPort" registry setting. 2. TCP/IP is enabled in Network Utility. 3. "start SQL server if it is stoped" checkbox is unchecked while connecting.
But, I am still getting the above error. Should i re-installed SQL Server 2000? Any help?
Please help! I cannot debug CLR procs remotely. Whenever I try to start debugging in VS2005 I get the error: Unable to start T-SQL Debugging. Could not attach to SQL Server process on .... I have clr enabled set to 1 and I have Allow SQLCLR Debugging set on. But I continue to get this error. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I've installed Visual Studio 2005 Professional evaluation edition on both my desktop & on the server to try out the Debugger to be used with my Stored procedures
I got this error message every time i try to 'Step into Stored Procedure' from my desktop to connect to the stored procedure which resides on the Server.
Error message: Unable to Start T-SQL Debugging. Could not attach to SQL Server Process on 'Server1'.The RPC server is unavailable
The 'Step into Stored Procedure' works though if I open the stored procedure directly on the server.
Both my PC and Server has been installed with Remote Debugger and my windows login has been assigned permission to debug on the debugger that resides on the Server and has sysadmin server role on SQL 2005 both on PC and Server.
Can someone tell me what i miss out to debug Stored procedure in the SQL Server 2005 on the Server from my PC?
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).
I am treating one of the XP Home system as 'Server' and installed SQL Express 2005 SP1. Enabled remote connections access.
I have total 4 XP Home systems, out of which one i am treating as Server, from the rest 3 computers, 2 are successfully connected to the Server and able to access SQL Express without any problems. But the 3rd system is unable to communicate with the Server. I disabled all firewalls in this 3rd system but still unable to connect to the server. I am able to ping the server, browse for shared folders on the server. Except SQL Express remote connection, everything else in the network is accessible from this 3rd computer.
Can anyone help me on how to troubleshoot this 3rd computer sql express connection problem to the server.
I don't have any error message to provide here. It just says, unable to connect to sql server, verify username/password etc.
Is there any limitation on SQL Express remote connections ?
My system config is VISTA Ultimate, Visual Studio 2005 SP1, SQL SEVER 2005 SP2. Using 2005 SQL Server Management Studio I am unable to create a servername/aspnet login account. I right click logins and get the new login form; key ASPNET Login Name; select Windows Authentication; click search; I get the Select User or Group form; under object type I select all three; location I select my server name; if I enter SERVERNAME/ASPNET and click Check Names I get an error; if I click Advanced and Find Now; ASPNET is not listed in Name(RDN) list. I tried aspnet_sql.exe -E -A all; that did not work. Where can I find information on creating an ASPNET Login after experiencing the above problems?
I'm using SQL Manager from my Enterprise server to connect to my SQL Express server that will act as a witness to a db mirroring system. If I try to connect to the SQL Express server using its IP address, I get a "named pipes error 53." If I connect by browsing the network and connect to the Name of the Server "MachinenameSQLExpress", I am successful. I would like to be able to connect to the IP directly as it's not dependant upon certain services to be started or configured a certain way.

Hi all, I'm new to .NET and VB2008 and trying to write my first database application. It runs fine on my development PC (Vista) but I decided to publish/install an early beta to my daughters XP computer and am getting an error reading: Unable to open database.
The CD drive on that pc has been giving us trouble so I deployed to a subdirectory on the dev pc and moved those files to a thumbdrive, copied to the same subdirectory on client pc and installed from there. I've installed it more than once, trying different paths for the installed version hoping that was the issue but have hit a wall. Can anybody help?

I'have this error during install of Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition (x86). I'm Using Windows XP Professional with SP2 Build 2600. Does anyone knows how to solve this?
****
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Setup was unable to install on your computer.
From this point I right click on information services and clicked "connect to computer" and located mine. When I hit "ok", I got "This computer is not running Internet Information Services Ver 4 or higher". IIS6 is starting, it just won't connect to local computer.
Previously someone said to post the event logs. I can't find them. Where are they??
Please if any one can answer.I am developing .net vb app sqlexpress database.
In single user work ok.In multiuser from other computer on network I cannot get data.Any form without data workok fine . The error I am getting is as follows.
Application attempted to perform operation not allowed by the security policy.
Please bare with me as I do not have much knowledge in this area with MSSQL.
I have installed MSSQL 2000 Developer and I have setup a database which I am able to connect to and work fine with from the actual server MSSQL is installed on.
The problem comes in when i try to connect to that same database from a different remote server. It will not connect to the DB from this remote server but I know all the connection information is correct so its something on the MSSQL DB server causing this and not on this remote server.
Someone I know has had this problem and has fixed it but they wont tell me how. All I know is they said something about manually opening the ports on the MSSQL server and he also said when you set it to dynamicly determine the port that MSSQL is listening on it errored out. however if you set it staticly to 1433 it worked fine.
Ive also installed SP4 in attempt to fix this but no luck with that either. And I can also get the same exact remote server to connect to completely different DB server without issues.
If anyone can please help walk me through this I would be greatly appreciate and I am also willing to pay some money if it will make my life easier.
I was altering a few columns (setting to allow nulls) on a large table (30+ million records) and the machine naturally crashed. I rebooted, and now I can't connect to the DB - enterprise manager hangs, and query analyzer times out. is it likely the whole DB is screwed up, assuming the table alteration was incomplete?
thankfully, I do have a backup, but for future reference, is there a preferred way to make changes to large tables? last time I did this it took over an hour, and enterprise manager gives no progress indication to make me feel more comfortable that it's actually doing something...
I just got a Virtual Dedicated Server and installed SQL Server Express 2005 on it and while I was installing choose Mix Mode authentication and setup a sa password.....
I want to connect to that database remotely from my machine using VS 2005 or Management Studio....both are encountering the same problems.....
On the Virtual Dedicated machine if I install management studio I run has no problem....it asks me for the server name : somethingSQLEXPRESS then username and password and works fine...
The same thing I try to do remotely is not happy with ....I tried to give the IP address of the server same thing no luck.....
Can somebody tell me what I'm doing wrong and where....
I have downloaded and installed the trial version of MS Visual Studio 2005 Team System. The installation was successful. However, I am not able to start SQLEXPRESS using the SQL Server Configuration Manager. It shows me SQLEXPRESS but when I right click and select Start it tries to start the service and after some time gives the following error
"The request failed or the service did not respond in a timely fashion. Consult the event log or other applicable error logs for details."
The event log shows the following errors:
1. FCB::Open: Operating system error 5(Access is denied.) occurred while creating or opening file 'c:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDATAmastlog.ldf'. Diagnose and correct the operating system error, and retry the operation.
2. FCB::Open failed: Could not open file c:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDATAmastlog.ldf for file number 2. OS error: 5(Access is denied.).
I tried enabling remote connections but still got the same error.
My Server service will not start, i get a message saing consult the logs, in the error logs it says error in the model db .ldf file. However, i can not connect to the server to restore from my back ups. I get the error msg, your server may not be configured to accept remote connection. No, i dont know what im doing and my only though is to start from scratch reinstalling the server. Any help is apreciated.

Does anyone have an idea as to why this is happening? Any help with this problem would be appreciated. Thanks

I have a client server application and it is running in the following configuration: SERVER A: MS Server2003 with MS SQL2000, Our ERP application software is installed on this server as is MS SQL200.
Server B: is our e-commerce server and it is running MS Windows2000 server OS and no MS SQL. The e-commerce application is pointed to the active SQL server on server A. I am trying to run a software version upgrade on on software application (which was successfully run on server A) When we try to run this upgrade on server B we get a message: " Setup is unable to start MS SQL Server Services, please start and try again"
