OK, I am not a programmer, but administrate the Report Server and its security. The .NET programmers want to connect direct to Report Server using WEB.CONFIG settings (see below).
What do I need to do to ensure their dynamic reports can run against my Report Server? What kind of rights do I assign the "MP2_Net" (above) login? All of this is outside the IIS-Report Server security environment? Do I assign rights via SQL Mgr? I cannot find any doco on this process.
I'm trying to connect to Desktop SQL Server 2000 from Windows mobile PC Emulator (VS 2005). I need a direct connection using connection string to SQL Server 2000 through local wireless network without IIS.
Bellow is the code that I use. After executing this code I get an error on line Conn.Open(). Error says SQL Server does not exist or access denied. SQL is un and running, and I can log in using SA username from the desktop. Even if I chance IP for another SQL server in my connection string I still get the same error. There is no firewall of any kind running.
Dim connectionSTR As String = "Persist Security Info=False;Integrated Security=False;Server=192.168.0.202,1433;initial catalog=MyDB;user id=sa;password=;"
Dim Conn As SqlConnection
Conn = New SqlConnection(connectionSTR)
Conn.Open()
If Conn.State = ConnectionState.Open Then MessageBox.Show("Open") End If
About my environment: SQL Server 2000 is running on Desktop PC with Windows XP SP2. Application which I need to connect to SQL Server is in Visual Studio 2005. I execute the application in Windows Mobile PC Emulator and try to connect to SQL Server from emulator.
I have a problem with SqlClient (WindowsCE 4.2 & .NET CF2.0 SP2). PDA is connects on PC via USB-cradle and ActiveSync 4.0. PC is in the LAN and SQL Server 2005 is in the LAN too. I can't connect to SQL Server 2005 (after connection.Open() I get exception "PlatformNotSupported"). When I use SQL Server 2000, it's O.K.
Can I connect on the SQL Server 2005 from Windows CE 4.2?
SQL Server Express 2005 will not install. I download the necessary package direct from the asp.net website and towards the end of the installation the following error occurs:
"An installation package for the product Microsoft SQL Server Native Client cannot be found. Try the installation again using a valid copy of the installation package 'sqlncli.msi'."
I get the exact same message for the following:

Can anyone help? I am desperate to use SQL with Visual Web Developer 2005 and 2008, but I am unable to do so. Please help if you can.
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 did a little bit of looking in the forums for something like this, but I wasn't able to find anything. In essence, I am looking to create a web form in ASP.NET which will emulate the SQL Server Query Analyzer Tool... eventually what I'd like to see: - A dropdown of different connection strings, to connect to different databases -A multi-line textbox where a user could type in a query (be it a SELECT, CREATE, UPDATE, or multiple queries at once) -A gridview object for results -A multiline textbox to contain server output ("the command completed successfully", "xxx rows returned", "syntax at line 3 not recognized", etc) I can do the first 3 without any difficulty, but I have absolutely no idea where to start with the server output. Anyone have any ideas? It does not need to be secure, as the only databases they'll have access to will be "test" databases and the pages will not be publicly hosted (LAN only)
I have some SQL CE database .sdf file on my handheld, and I was trying to connect to that file via SQL Server 2005 Management Studio, and it does not work. I am wondering if there is any good tool that I can use on desktop to connect to sqlce .sdf database file on my handheld?
Hi, I have VS Pro 2005 and SQL Server Express 2005 installed on an XP Pro machine. When using VS 2005, in the 'Server Explorer' window I can see and attach to two SQL Server databases that I have set-up. But if I attempt to access the same databases from withn the 'Solution Explorer' window I get the following dialog box message,
" Required Component Missing (Dialog box heading)
Connections to SQL Server Files (*.mdf) require SQL Server Express to function properly. Please verify the installation of the component or download from the URL: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=49251 "
I have uninstalled and then reinstalled both VS 2005 and SQL Server Express twice but it has helped.
I don't understand why I'm getting this error because all of the server configuration tools and connection utilities seem to work fine but VS say's that SQL Server Express is not installed.
Thanks,
CLN
P.S. I had another application that required MSDE 2000A to be installed. When I removed the other application I also removed MSDE 2000A and that's when the problem began.
I am having a problem with connecting to SQL Server 2005 database from Office Business Scorecard Manager 2005 (the connection string i am using is: provider=SQLOLEDB;Data source=server_name; Initial catalog=database_name). But the connection failed. Would please any experts here shed me any light on what is the problem and how to fix it then? As there is no any forum for Office Business Scrorecard manager 2005.

I've used Sql Server 2000 and Visual Studio 2003 for a few years. I've started a new position and they have access to Sql Server 2005 Standard and Visual Basic 2005 Express which I'd like to use for a new project. So I installed Sql Server 2005 and then VB 2005 Express on my workstation. I didn't choose the Sql Server option for VB Express because I already had Sql Server 2005 Standard installed with a simple database created. I created a simple vb project that justs connects to the database but I get the following error.

I thought I'd look at the starter kit to get some ideas about what the problem is, but when I started the movie starter kit project, it was upset that I didn't have Sql Server 2005 EXPRESS installed. Yea, but I do have Sql Server 2005 Standard installed. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I have installed MS Visual Web Developer 2005 Express Edition on my Notebook (WinXP Pro SP2). And it's working fine. Then I tried installed SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP1. There is no error during installation and it seems to be working as I can see the SQL Server (MSSQLServer) service is running.

I have what seems a simple requirement. We want to import the contents of a SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services report into a SQL Server 2005 database, in order to perform some checks on reports displayed to users. Is there an easy way to achieve this? XML would seem appropriate, but I can't find a step-by-step guide on how to achieve this. Any pointers/suggestions would be appreciated.

One of our database server has upgraded from SQL Server 2000 to 2005 version some days ago, but I found the application which could run before cannot work fine now. I have followed some intructions got from other guys, such as replace the old driver with a new version, but it still did not work. Now I have two questions
1. What is the driver implementation class name? I found there were several answers. (I don't use XA connections)
2. What is the data source helper class name?
I suspect that the above questions are the causes. However, please give me some other hints if any.

I have a problem with connecting to SQL Server 2005. I have a small network at home with a WLAN router connected to Internet. My notebook computer and desktop computer are connected to router. My SQL Server 2005 is installed on notebook computer and Microsoft Server Management Studio is installed on desktop computer. I wanted to add login so I could connect to it from desktop pc and a problem came up. When I tryed to add account (from desktop pc) to local group on notebook pc I couldn't do that becouse there wasn't offered desktop pc as a location. Also, when I try to make connection string in visual studio, i can see sql server but i can not choose database. Is this becouse of router or is it posible to do that only in a real server(domain)?
Hi, I'm new to all of the SQL server stuff. I just started using Visual Web Developer 2008 to create a website for my company. However, I encountered a problem a while ago that i haven't been able to solve. First, i could not edit the security settings for my website (an error came up that i tried to fix before, but nothing worked). I don't remember what the error was. However, I've uninstalled and re-installed both Web Developer and all of the SQL programs, and an error comes up: Shared Memory Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server
I'm not sure what this means, but i can't seem to solve it. I've tried to do some things suggested by the ASP.NET configuration utility and by other forums, but even those things have been blocked, coming up with the same error message: 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: Shared Memory Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) that's the whole of the error message.
What can i do to solve this, I just want to develop the website with Web Developer
I have stored procedure .In SP i am using cursur to load data from Parent to several child table.
I have attached the script with this message.
And my problem is how to use direct select and insert or load to speedup the process instead of cursor.

Hi everyone, I'm new here!I've begun work on a project for a new client, and we have a dedicated server set up with Fasthosts. To save cost, I've decided to install SQL Server 2005 on the same machine that the site will be running on.Well, I've installed SQL Server 2005, and can connect to it from within the server itself, but I cannot connect from outside (it's set on port 1433, and it's not being blocked). I've looked at firewalls, security policies etc.. but still I'm getting the same error:-Login failed for user 'sa'. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 18456) - or indeed any user I set up.I have created another user within SS2005, but above I'm just showing 'sa' for example (although the same error occurs when using the default 'sa' login).PLEASE can someone help me, or suggest things to try. Fasthosts themselves aren't helping much, because essentially they can't support this type of setup (they have their own dedicated SQL Servers, which we opted not to use).Many thanks in advanceAndy
