Please HELP ME!!! I have a server that is behind a firewall that I can not connect to through Enterprise Manager. However, I can connect to it through Query Analyzer. I am using TCP/IP. The credentials are fine, but the firewall is complaining. The firewall team has told me that the port is fine and that I should be able to connect. Is there a different port that Enterprise Manager uses along with 1433? I am told the answer is no, but I can't think of any other possibilities.
Can anyone tell me how Enterprise Manager connects to SQL Server? Does the Client Network Utility affect it? I can ping the servers with SQL on them, but I get timeouts and 'Connection Broken' in EM. Query Analyzer works sometimes and sometimes doesn't.
I am trying to solve this problem for the past 1.5 weeks and it is driving me crazy :(
I can't connect to my SQL database using Enterprise Manager, Query Analyzer, Visual Studio 2003 .NET or a .aspx that I created for testing.. it runs perfectly on my domain but it doesnt work on my computer, on the browser I get this message: SQL Server unavailable or access denied. It is the same message I get when I try connecting to my db using EM, QA, VS.NET etc :(
I can ping my sql domain, so I know I have access to it and it is working.. I can successfully connect to my personal SQL server running on my machine. (SQL Server Personal Edition running on Windows XP )
I tried doing everything I could,
I already selected TCP/IP as my client only protocol; I tried installing the lastest MDAC (v 2.8); I tried every other port on my TCP/IP client setup like 14333 or 11433 or 11143 etc; I tried every other port on the alias I set for my sql address; I tried downloading the evaluation version of MS SQL2000 and updating it to SP3; I tried reinstalling several times my MS SQL2000 (I use the personal edition on my windows XP) and updating it to SP3; I tried connecting to my sql address domain and directly to its IP; And I tried a lot more resolutions that I can't remember right now, but it didn't work :(
I've been searching all forums/google etc looking for someone with my problem but I still didnt, everyone who had a problem connecting to their DB using EM or QA resolved it by doing "this or that", I did exactly the same "this or that" on my computer/config and it didn't resolve my problem. :(
What am I doing wrong? I can't connect to my database from my personal computer :(
I have never used enterprise manager before, so I don't know if it is a problem on my personal computer or on my sql server address on internet.. Is there anyway to find a free test ms sql database with like 1mb just to try and find out if I can connect to a sql database at all using EM or if the problem is here on my computer?

I am attempting to connect to a remote default instance of SQL Server2k on Win2k using Enterprise Manager from my local host but receive a"SQL Server registration failed, timeout expired" error message eachtime.I am able to connect using Query Analyzer when specifying the IPaddress of the server (I am also specifying the IP address in myEnterprise Manager connection), am able to ping the server from thecommand line, and am able to telnet to port 1433. I have triedconnecting both before and after creating an appropriate alias inClient Network Utilities all to no avail.I ran SQL Profiler while attempting to connect and do not see theconnection attempt reach the server. What could be preventingEnterprise Manager from reaching/connecting to the server while allother utilities (including profiler) are fine?Thanks in advance.

Im trying to replicate a database (on web hosting server) my own local machine
I have successfully registered the server in enterprise manager, i know i have username/password correct [server status shows a blank white dot??]
Any ideas??? Maybe my network wont allow me, i cannot telnet to the server even specifying the particular port?
I have managed to backup the database via services provided by web hosting company, is there a way i can expand the database from this backup file using enterprise manager surely???
On one of our machines, all of the SQL Server 2000components except for the main Server component (SQL Servercore) itself were installed (Management tools, etc) a while agoand everything was running fine. Now I go and add/install theServer component and then Service Pack 3a.It seems that Service Manager won't start up (I get an hourglass cursor)and now I find that Enterprise Manager won't run as well. No errormessages appeared and I don't think I saw anything unusual inthe log file.However, I can use Enterprise Manager on a differentmachine and connect to the database (so the databaseitself seems to be running).Any suggestions as to what the problem might be and how tofix it? I like to see if I can repair this without havingto do a reinstall.Thanks.PF
IF someone can assist me. Everytime I load up enterprise manager the service manager turns off. And the enterprise manager can't connect to the local database. But everytime i turn it back on and try to connect again it shuts it off and around and around we go. Help would be appreciated. Thanks.
I installed SQL Server MSDE 2000 but I can't find how to start it. Does this package include an Enterprise Manager or not? I thought that maybe it was a standard XP Pro feature. I had no problem finding it in W2000 Pro.
Has anyone encountered this error: When you are in Enterprise manager and you select a database then the tables tab and then you select a table and go to open table- select all rows, I get an error--An unexpected error happened during this operation-Query Designer encountered a query error! Please let me know if you have seen this. Also, when I access this from one networked computer I get the same error, then when I access it from another I do not!! The servers are interacting with Pivotal. The one that works does not!!
Hi all, I have SQL 7.0 desktop addition installed on my local win NT workstation.

Please verify SQL server is running and check your SQL Server registration properties(by right clicking "servername" node) and try again. __________________________________________________ ___________________________ I have tried as said in the error message and also tried connecting with "sa" but its not working. I can see that the server is running and i am able to connect through QA.
I am fairly new sql dba in a company and I am sure Enterprise Manager is installed on PC's and it shouldn't. Is there a way of finding out other then visiting each workstation. Thanks in advance..
I am considering upsizing my Access 2000 DB to a SQL 7 server. I was told that having SQL 7 Enterprise Manager is highly prefferd but not essential as I can maintain the upsized DB with Access 2000. The only way that I have been able to find JUST enterprise manager seems to be with purchasing the whole SQL 7 program for $1300! Microsoft cannot be that cruel, that you have to buy the whole program just for Enterprise Manager!
My questions are:
Can I download just MS SQL 7 Enterprise Manager anywhere for a reasonable fee or free?
and
if not, can I continue to use Access 2000 to maintain the SQL 7 upsized DB?
I have access to a SQL 7 server via my ISP Hosting account. I know Enterprise manager comes with the server software, but how can I get a copy of JUST Enterprise Manager?
Is it possible to administer both 6.5 and 7.0 databases from the same SQL Enterprise Manager? I have read that you cannot do this because the 7.0 "plug-in" to the MMC wont work with 6.5 databases.
We had database corruption and cannot access the Enterprise Manager. DBCC returned errors 9000 to 9999 which I can't get any suggestions on how to handle from BOL. Any ideas!!!!! Thanks.
Hi, I would like to know if we can present users to access details database information about the databases on a server through Enterprise Manager. If you create a SQL login and do NOT give it access to any database, if someone logons on your server with enterprise manager, even though he does not have access to any database, he will still see the list of all database on your servers plus tons of sensitive information like database owner. Is is possible to limit enterprise manager to only view information about database that the user has access to?
How can I force users of Ent Manager 6.5 to enter a name/password when connecting to a server that has been registered? I dont want to use the sa name and password so that anyone could use my workstation to access our servers.
Does anyone know how to turn off or disable the auto discovery for Enterprise Manager. Apparently our Network group is complaining that Enterprise Manager is generating noise on the network, it is not signifcant in volume but they complain it impacts there ability to detect hacking attempts on our network because it causes some false positives. I generally keep Enterprise Manager running because I will always have some manual job running from it and we have so many servers it takes awhile for them to all load when I first fire it up.
I have SQL server 2000 client machine on my XP desktop which worked fine until yesterday. Yesterday, I tried to set up client access (a tool from IBM to access AS400) unsuccesfully. Since ever, Each time I try to open a table in enterprise manager, I get the following error message "The query cannot be executed because some files are either missing or not registered. Run setup again to make sure the required files are registered". While when I issue a query in analyzer it works fine.
I did that several times without success. Even, I removed the whole SQL 2000 setup, rebooted my machine, ran set up again for client tools which gave the same result. Also, I re-setup MDAC2.6 SP2 but no way.
Which files are corrupted ?and I don't understand after doing all that, setup goes smoothly without indicating any errors, but still when you open a table in enterprise manager, it gives the same error.
Using MS SQL Server 7. When I go into a table in design view and order by date created, it only orders on the day and not the date (Enterprise Manager) e.g.
When we click on the Query Analyzer Shortcut, it will prompt for a user id and password.but when we expand the databases node from EM and clicks on Tools->Query Analyzer Menu, after selecting a database node, the QA does not prompt for the user id and password. Can any one explain this behaviour of QA..
I am using Mixed mode authentication for my db server.
When I view the database properties using Enterprise Manager, some of the databases on the server are reporting that there is zero space available while others have space available. Does anybody know why?
Does anyone know where I can get a copy of Enterprise Manager? I have the trial copy of 2000, but I need to administer data on a SQL 7 server, and I cannot create stored procedures, add users, or create DTS packages in 2000 that will work on SQL 7. Thanks!
Is it possible to add custom columns to the design table interface. For example could I add custom column for some data on want to store under a table column. I am used to vb.net and I am able to add custom properties to a control. Is this type of customization possible for SQL Server. Is it possible to add a custom tab to the tab control where columns are located at the bottom of the designer?
