I have a Windows Server 2012 R2 install that I am trying to use as a WSUS server.I have setup SQL Server 2012 Express on the server to be used as the WSUS database. When installing the WSUS role, I select the option to install the SQL database and continue through the wizard to the point where I have to connect to the database.At this point I enter 'ServerNameMSSQLSERVER' and select 'Check Connection'.At this point, I get the following error: 'A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server.
The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 25 - (Connection string is not valid)I have tried using localhost and the server's IP for the name, but those fail as well. How can I get this working? It's urgent for me as I already have downtime scheduled for patching.The server is not hosting any other roles and is joined to an existing domain. Unfortunately, I don't have access to any of the other servers on the domain.
WSUS is installed on my windows 2003 server. During the install, parameter DISABLENETWORKPROTOCOLS was not specified, and so no remote connection was possible.
I used SVRNETCN.exe to enable TCP/IP remote connection on port 1433. However it seems not to work.
FROM THE SERVER :
osql -E -S MYSERVERWSUS works fine but
osql -E -S 127.0.0.1WSUS doesn't work, i get the famous error
[DBNETLIB]Serveur SQL spécifié non trouvé. [DBNETLIB]ConnectionOpen (Connect()).
If i user "osql -L" command, my instance doesn't appear in the list
FROM A CLIENT COMPUTER
osql -E -S MYSERVERWSUS and
osql -E -S MY_SERVER_IPWSUS don't work, i get the same error
I've tried tried to understand for hours, and i'm lost. I thought there may be a problem between SQL and 2003, and read SQL sp3a was required. I ran
select @@version from osql and got result
Microsoft SQL Server 2000 - 8.00.881 (Intel X86)
8.00.881 is not referenced in ms support as a patched version number !!!!!
I am interning at my university and I am installing and running windows server update services. My problem is that I made all of the necessary changes in the group policy and only half of the clients on the domain are reporting to the server. Keeping in mind that I have people around me who do not understand anything about servers. If there are any suggestions please respond.
i've got "Windows Server Update Services encountered an error. The log file for database 'tempdb' is full. Back up the transaction log for the database for free up some log space" error. i'm using MSDE at my current server which is function to download windows update from internet so all pc's at my local domain automatically update windows from this server without using internet.
what i'm suppose to do to solve this error? i've no idea coz i'm not familiar with MSDE. thankss..
Hi All Im a new comer to the site and wsus. I inherited a functional wsus server it was great but due to a demand for improved reporting features I attempted to install the Wsus rollup reporting sample. Im uncertain as to how but I hashed up the installation to the extent that it corrupted the MSDE installation. It was suggested I remove wsus and reinstall.
At this point I made another error. I was told that WSUS 3 had improved reporting features (and indeed it does, its infinitely better in that respect) so I signed up with Microsoft and downloaded the installation file.
WSUS 3 uses SQL 2005 for Windows so my back up of the MDF & log files were rendered useless.
I have since removed WSUS 3 reinstalled a fresh copy of WSUS Sp1 and run the synchronisation job.
The fresh install does not have my machines/groups setup nor any of the updates approved.
I would like to know is there any way I can use the MDF file and its log to rebuild my WSUS environment?
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 designed the AlwaysOn wrong, but every time we fail over from primary server to another server, my applications cannot connect because the sql logins cannot connect to their default databases. Once I run the command to link the login with the user in the default database then the users are able to connect. Did I do something wrong when designing AlwaysOn?
I try to import my SSIS packages which are created using the Business Intelligent studio into SQL server 2005 but I cannot do that.
I am running SQL server 2005 enterprise edition.
Also when i tried to connect to Integration services using Object explorer, it only prompt me for server name. I cannot change the username and password which is disabled.
Then how am i supposed to connect to Integration services on a server in this case?
I'm having a problem connecting with a Java application but I CAN connect using my .Net application - the user name and password are the same for both (using the same database on SQL Server Express 2005).
The error I get is: "com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: Cannot open database "CORNERS" requested by the login. The login failed." An interesing note - I get the same message if the database is not running.
SQL Server Express 2005 is installed in mixed mode.
Here is my connection string in the .Net appplication: <add key="connectString" value="Server=(local);UID=sa;PWD=myPasswd;Database=CORNERS" />.

I need help on SQL Server 7.0 on connection to the server. The error message is "General Network error, Check your network documentation, ConnectionOpen(Connect)" when I try to add SQL server registration.

When trying to connect to SQL Ent. Mgr., got an error message:
A connection could not be established to [servername] - cannot open user default database '<ID>'. Using master database instead. Please verify SQL Server is running and check your SQL Server registration properties...
I have not seen this message before. There is one server and 4 PCs. All worked fine before. Now one PC connects, three - don't. Did not see anything unusual with the registration properties; All users show in [servername]/security/logins. Did not notice anything relevant in the "DBA survival guide".
Hi there, We just upgraded our webserver from NT4 to W2K and I now cannot connect from my desktop SQL Server client to the new SQL Server 200 in order to export data to the new database. I just get the error "timeout expired". What things should I be looking at to resolve this problem?
I am trying to connect to a SQL Server 2000 database using VBScript on an active server page, but I can't connect. I think my SQL Server may be set up wrong in the security settings.
I have my authenication set to Windows Authenication Only, and I have an "sa" account with a password.
Here is my code:
Code:
<% dim objConn dim sqlCmd dim FromWebPage as string FromWebPage = "FromWebPage"
'connect to the SQL Server db (local machine) objConn.ConnectionString = "PROVIDER=MSDASQL;DRIVER={SQL Server};SERVER=(local);DATABASE=SteelBoard;UID=sa;PWD=password;" objConn.Open
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers (0x80004005) [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified /TheResort/i_asputils.asp, line 8
Problem:
I setup the ODBC portion and it correctly saw the MS SQL server, and the test connection worked fine. Yet when I ever I enter that ODBC name "Test_Server", and the password of the Win XP Pro user I am signed in as, it fails to connect.
How can I be sure what domain,user,password I need to enter?
Hi Group, I get the following error when I try to connect to SQL Server 7.0 (Beta Version) from my ASP page. I'm using this for testing purposes.
Error Type: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server (0x80004005) [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access denied. /CheckLogin.asp, line 27
Line 27 in CheckLogin.asp is:objConn.Open strSecurity Here is my connection string: strSecurity = "DSN=Operations" This is in an .inc file.
Am I missing something? I've tested the DSN connection and it is OK. I am using TCP/IP as opposed to named pipes.

When i am trying to create a new database project in VSTE DB Prof and say finish an error is thrown saying "WHEN CONNECTING TO SQL SERVER2005, THIS FAILURE MAY BE CAUSED BY THE FACT THAT UNDER THE DEFAULT SETTINGS SQL SERVER DOES NOT ALLOW REMOTE CONNECTION". I have checked all services and started all the required ones.I am also using a local connection, i am trying to connect to the database on my system.How to handel this error?
I have downloaded the sql server express edition 2005 .When i open Sql Server Management Studio i am unable to connect this is the error message Login failed for user 'sa'. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 18456)
I have 2 PCs (2 floors between them so I have to keep running up and down.....) I installed SQL Express 2005 on (called Sys-C running Windos 2000 and Sys-A running Windows XP).
I verified it is posisble to create connections to the (AdventureWorks and LogDatabase) on each system locally. Now I want to connect to eachother databases (so Sys-C connects to a database on Sys-A and vica versa). Using 'SQL Server Configuration Manager' I activated all 4 protocols for SQLEXPRESS (Shared memory, Named Pipes, TCPIP and VIA). The 'SQL Browser' Service is running as well. I use 'Microsoft SQL Server (SqlClient)' as Data Source
I try using Windows Authentication and activated both 'Guests' accounts (something I really do not like at this stage; what are good practises in this??). But on Sys-A trying to connect with the 'LogDatabase' using 'SYS-CSQLEXPRESS' I get the message
Login failed for user ".The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server Connection
while on Sys-C I get the message
Cannot connect to Sys-ASQLEXPRESS Additional information: Login failed for user SYS-AGuest' (Microsoft SQL Server Error 18456)
As I suppose this kind of things are wellknown I want to ask what I need to do to get things working.
Also I would like to know WHY not using windows authentication is being preferred over SQL Authentication as I would think making 'Guest' account available seems to be worse to me compared to providing access to a few people by userid/password (BTW how do I define people for using SQL Authentication?)
