Hi,
Sorry if this is the wrong forum.
I'm trying to connect to a remote server (on shared hosting) with Management Studio Express. I tried using it on Vista and it connects to the server and database perfectly. However, on Vista it gives the following error everytime:
TITLE: Connect to Server------------------------------
Cannot connect to sgc.gbdns.net.
------------------------------ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
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) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 53)
For help, click: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?ProdName=Microsoft+SQL+Server&EvtSrc=MSSQLServer&EvtID=53&LinkId=20476
------------------------------BUTTONS:
OK------------------------------
However, the host obviously has SQL server to allow remote connections as I'm able to connect from XP.
Both the XP and Vista PCs are running Avast free edition (the same builds) and both are running Windows firewall with management studio allowed through. Can anyone help?

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 have an application developed by VB.NET 2005, and I need to install the Data base on a server to allow the clients access the data base from thier own computers, i need to allow all the functions on that data base (Insert, Update, and Delete).
I tried to do it by installing the SQL Server on a computer named (PC1) and the application on a computer named (PC2), and they are connected to the same subnet, I need to know what are the properties that I should do on the SQL Server in order to be visible through PC1 to make the connection string? And does the authintication mode affect the process?? whether it is Windows authintication or SQL Server Authintication??
Note: I am using SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition.
Thanking you in advance..

I have created a ASP.NET application on a development server that accesses a SQL Server 2005 database on the same server. This application runs flawless. However when I try to connect the same application to an identical database on a remote SQL Server database I get the following error " Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection." I actually backed up the database on the development server, and then restored the same database on the remote server. I can see the original ASPNET user account in the security tab of the restored database. However I cannot connect. The remote server has ASP.NET 2.0 installed. I have created a security database on the remote server (aspnetdb) and added the same login credentials as on the development server. I have changed the database connection strings in the web.config file to point to a: to the remote database only, and b: to both the remote database and the remote security database (aspnetdb).
I am at a loss, can anyone help.

I'm green on this networking stuff so any help is greatly appreciated.
I have setup my home computer as a server and assigned a static IP to it. I installed SQL Server 2005 Developer and allowed remote connections to it through the Surface Area Config tool, added port 1433 TCP and 1434 UDP to firewall's exception list, and started the SQL Server Browser service.
Now I can't seem to remote connect to this SQL Server from my office network. Is there something I'm doing wrong here?
Thanks!!

Hi all. I have a 64 bit Windows 2003 cluster with 4 named instances of SQL Server 2005.
Im unable to connect via ODBC or from applications from Windows Vista to the named instances.
There are no problem connecting to default intances.
The ODBC give me a SQL State 08001 error. In the bottom of the error it talks about not allowing remote connections, but the instances allows both TCPIP and named pipes.
The SQL 2005 cluster are running SP2 and Vista have Native Client upgraded to SP2.
Any ideas??

Here's the context:
Database server:
- Remote machine running SQL 2005 Standard as a named instance
- Named pipes and TCP are enabled for remote connections
- SQLBrowser service is running
- Listening on default named pipe (\servernamepipeMSSQL$instancenamesqlquery)
Client:
- Vista Business machine
- Not in same domain as server, but on the same network (via Cisco VPN)
- SQL 2005 Express is installed (for use with local databases)
- Windows Firewall enabled
- Running Symantec Antivirus, Corporate Edition
Connectivity:
- I CAN connect to SQL 2005 databases on the remote server using "nperverinstancename"
- I CAN connect to SQL 2005 databases on the remote server using Excel 2007
The problem is that I cannot successfully create an ODBC datasource using the "ODBC Data Source Administrator" application. I'm using the "SQL Server" driver and trying to create a System DSN. I'm also running the tool with elevated permissions.
- When I try to use "servernameinstancename" as the server and TCP as the connection type, I get this error:
Connection failed: SQL Server Error: 18452; "[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server] Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.
- When I try to use "npervernameinstancename" as the server and Named Pipes, I get this error:
Connection failed: SQLState: '01000'; SQL Server Error: 1326; [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBNETLIB]ConnectionOpen(Connect()).
Connection failed: SQLState: '08000'; SQL Server Error: 17; [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBNETLIB]SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
Help! I've really been beating my head against the wall on this one. It all works just fine with a Windows XP client machine.

Hi,
I have the following scenario in my lab:
1. Windows Vista Ultimate with an fresh SQL 2005 Express SP2;
2. Developer machine with Windows XP and SQL Manag. Studio.
Problem:
Windows Vista isn't allowing a SQL connection from XP >> Vista.
I've tried:
1. Configured surface area (the same configurations works on XP);
2. Configured all services and windows firewall base on online docs from MS.
After 6 hours arround i didn't find any solution. Any ideas?

Hey. I've a windows vista machine which can't connect to SQL 2005 box. Other machines which are lower than vista work fine. Also, vista box can connect to other SQL 2005 instances but can't connect to only one instance. But, I can connect to the instance fine from my XP box. Also, it's not a permissions issue. This user is an SA and can connect form some other machine. SQL 2005 box is at 2047 version right now. And, the user is able to connect to some other boxes which are also at 2047. Please help. Thank you

Hello!
I am new to SQL server 2005 and Windows Vista. I installed SQL server 2005 and SQL Server 2005 SP2. It seems that I get a "cannot connect to server" problem. I see the "Connect to server" popup window when hit the "Connect Object explorer" under the file menu or "Connect database Engine" under the Object explorer pane. Trying to see a Server name I recognized there was nothing there. Tried "browse for more" but It seems that no servers can be found at all.
I logged into Windows Vista with my account (with administrator rights, but not the Main Administrator account itself). I also tried SQL Server 2005 User Provisioning Tool for Vista, but it cannot find no instances in the "Available Privilegies" window.
I read a lot on forums on the net, but what is the best solution to use for this situation? Maybe I shall log on with the Main Admin Account and install again? Or is there better ways? Please can someone give me the best practices for this topic?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
I've installed Windows Vista 64 bit on my pc (I had XP Pro). Also I've installed the management studio of SQL Server 2005 developer edition which I've uses also on my XP machine.
I've a online server at "myserver.myprovider.com". With C:WindowsSystem32cliconfg.exe a made a TCP/IP alias to with the name "MySql". In XP I then can connect in Sql management studio to "MySql" and everyting works perfect (I also use some other programs which needs the cliconfg alias.
After I installed Vista, I take the same steps (I've done this over 30 times, but in XP). When I then want to connect to "MySql" in management studio, I get this error: (translated from dutch) "Cannot connect to MySql. Maybe this error is caused by the fact that the SQL Server don't allow external connections. Error: 53.
Can someone help me with this?

Getting error 1326.
I'm running SQL Express on Server 2003 SP1 (workstation - although, I did dcpromo promote and demote prior to installing SQL Express).
I'm trying to connect from SQL Studio Express on Vista.
TCP and Named Pipes are selected in Surface Area Config; sp_config remote, access..., 1 was run (per KB); ports 1433 & 1434 are open (I think 435 also was opened when I ran the KB instructions); Mixed mode is selected, user is set for SQL Auth, password is correct; all permissions are granted.
I found an article online which stated that mixed versions of MDAC can lead to the problem. The server has 2.82.1830 and the client has 6.0.5600.16834. Could this be the problem? If so, how to solve?
Thanks, John

Can't connect to local server instance MSSQLSERVER in SQL Server Management Studio (SQL2005 sp2/Vista).
SQL Server Configuration Manager reports SQL Server2005 services: SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) Running. This would indicate the name of the SQL server is "MSSQLSERVER" correct? I chose "default" instance during the install and that is the name it gave itself.
I tried connecting to the server using the following for the Server Name: MSSQLSERVER and .MSSQLSERVER neither works.
The only thing that works for my installation is just plain "." (no quotes) and nothing else. Can this be correct because I can't find any reference to this. Thanks.

I’m going nuts and need some help with my ASP.NET 2.0 application which has trouble talking to a remote SQL Server 2000. First, before I describe my problem let me say that everything works perfectly on my XP development workstation when I point to the local SQL Server database. Screens load fine, saves and edits all work perfectly. Problem is when I connecting to SQL Server on a remote windows 2003 server I get Login failed for user '(null)'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection. Now, I’ve researched this error and have successfully made the following changes to the remote windows 2003 server where the database resides:1) Added logins for “ASPNET”, “NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE”, and “IIS_WPG”. The reason I added NT AUTHORITY is because we plan on deploying this web site to the same windows 2003 server and I understand that IIS6 (on this server) has ASP.NET running as NT AUTHORITY acct. 2) For all the logins above I’ve added them as users to the database and given dbo role. I still get same login for user null error when attempting to connect from my XP workstation. Can anyone help?

I recently reinstalled SQL Server 2005 on a new computer, and now I can't connect to remote SQL servers for some reason.
When trying to access the remote server with SQL Management Studio or DTS I get the following error:

I'm certain the servers I'm trying to connect to allow remote connections so the fault must be on my side. Does anyone have any idea what the cause and solution might be?
