How To Establish Connection Between SQL Server Database && VWD 2005

Mar 24, 2007

I just got a shared hosting plan with godaddy (economy plan) ...
I wrote a simple application with a database. it works fine on my local PC.
I tried to upload my files to the server, but i couldn't get database file on godaddy's server. I did a little research and found out they dont allow uploading database files to their server nor they allow remote access either.
so I logged in to my account and found a database links and I created one (SQL Server)




Host Name
whsql-v44.prod.mesa4.secureserver.net



Database Name
DB_43434



Database Version
2000



Description
maindb
I then logged in to the database and created a new table .. but now I dont know how to make a connection between this database and my application on my pc.
I later found that I must modify my web.config file for the database to work. http://help.godaddy.com/article.php?article_id=689&topic_id=216&prog_id=GoDaddy&isc=

<connectionStrings><add name="Personal" connectionString="Server=whsql-v04.prod.mesa1.secureserver.net;Database=DB_675;User ID=user_id;Password=password;Trusted_Connection=False" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" /><remove name="LocalSqlServer"/><add name="LocalSqlServer" connectionString="Server=whsql-v04.prod.mesa1.secureserver.net;Database=DB_675;User ID=user_id;Password=password;Trusted_Connection=False" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" /></connectionStrings>
Now- I am new to web developing, but I do understand that this code is not enough to create the connection to the database. I researched alot but I cant get further.
 What code/ settings/ steps do I need to do to get my gridview and other database items connect to the database on godaddy's server ?
any help would be greatly appreciated...

Unable To Establish Connection With The Microsoft SQL Server 2005

Jun 19, 2008

Hi,   I am using Microsoft Visual Web Developer 2008 Express Edition. I wanted to add a database to the Project. When i add it, it says "An error occured while extablishing an 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: SQL Network Interfaces, error:26- Error locating server / instance specified). Please let me know what is the cause of this error. Initially i downloaded Microsoft Adventure works database and saved the file as .mdf and tried to access it through the data grid. I got the same error message as above. I changed the settings in SQl server to enable remote access and also changed firewall settings to allow SQL server exe files. Then i uninstalled works db and now have disabled remote access and still have the firewall settings to allow SQL server on. Thanks,Vidhya

Asp.net SQL Server 2005 Setup. Unable To Establish Database Connection Correctly.

Feb 20, 2008

I am setting up a web server and I'm having some issues with database connections.  I am running Windows Server 2k3 and SQL Server 2005.  The error I get is when I attempt to connect to the database, it's the following:
     Cannot open database "dbReseacher" requested by the login. The login failed.     Login failed for user 'userRes'.
The following is my connection string:
    <add name="RESEARCHER" connectionString="Data Source={Sql Server}; Server=THRALL2; Database=dbReseacher; Uid=userRes; Pwd=password;"/>
In SQL Server Management Studio, the user userRes is listed under Security -> Logins, but it is not listed under Database -> dbResearcher -> Security -> Users.  Originally it was listed under both and this didn't solve the problem. 
Please let me know if you any ideas or questions that I can answer.  Thanks a lot.

How To Establish Connection To SQL Server?

Mar 31, 2004

in the Quick start, it used connection string ("server=(local)NetSDK;database=pubs;Trusted_Connection=yes") to connect to the SQL db.

Now my working environment is, Im working on my client running .NET Framework as a webserver, and the SQL Server is on another PC as a db server (IP: xxx.xxx.xx.xx, user: webuser, pwd: webuser).

1st Question:
how do I build my connection string for this??
I tried following but no luck:
"user id=webuser;password=webuser;Initial Catalog=Bei;Data Source=xxx.xxx.xx.xx;Integrated Security=SSPI;";


2nd Question:
I just happened to see that ODBC is no more recommended in ASP.NET ?? if that's the case what is the new way to connect to DB ?? by using connection string or what ??


Thanks heaps!

Establish Connection With SQL Server From VB.Net Application

Jun 11, 2008

I have application that is connecting to SQL Server and runs bunch of stored procedures, but I don't think that am able to connect to my database server. When it hits the line to execute the stored procedure it comes up with syntax error saying the syntax error is at the stored procedure.

Need To Establish A Remote Connection To An Sql Database On A Local Server (same Domain)

Feb 16, 2007

Hi, I have been creating a web store, which we will be hosting on our Windows Server 2003 system.  I am also writing a windows application that will be running on our client systems on the same network/domain.  I have no need to allow internet access to the database, just within our domain.  Pretty much the windows application will be running and whenever a customer places an order, the program will automatically pop-up the needed information for our credit card processing, and shipping department.  So far I have been able to establish a connection to our server by creating a data connection under the server explorer.  However, it does not list any databases whatsoever, the web site has been published using Visual Studio 2005 Professional on the server, and is in 100% working order.  I have searched and haven't found anything concrete on this, i'm sure its just something simple that im missing.  It appears that the server is definetely connected to the database (since the website is fully functional), but it is not listing the information for other systems to access it.  If anyone has any ideas, please let me know.  Thank you

Connection Strings, Trusted-connection VS Username-password, SQL Server 2005 Express

Mar 9, 2007

All --
Please help.
I have some questions about connection strings.
 
BACKGROUND...

Note that I am using the "SQL Native Client OLE DB Provider", SQL Sever 2005 Express, ASP.NET, C#.NET, and VS.NET 2005.
Note that I do not want to use the "Attach a database file" type of connection string.
Note that I am using the site http://www.ConnectionStrings.com as a reference.
Note that this "Standard security" connection string...<add name="LocalSqlServer" connectionString="Server=MYTESTOFFICESERVERS;Database=MyDatabase;Uid=MyDatabaseUser;Pwd=MyDatabasePassword;" />...does not work and causes the following run-time error...A connection was successfully established with the server, but then an error occurred during the login process. (provider: Shared Memory Provider, error: 0 - No process is on the other end of the pipe.)
Note that this "Trusted connection" connection string...<add name="LocalSqlServer" connectionString="Server=MYTESTOFFICESERVERS;Database=MyDatabase;Trusted_Connection=yes;" />...works but is less-than ideal because it uses a Trusted Connection rather than a Username/Password combination.
 
QUESTIONS...
(A) What exactly does the error in Item 4 mean?
(B) Do 4 and 5 imply that one must use a Trusted_Connection for all SQL Server 2005 Express connection strings when the database does not reside in the web application's App_Data folder or use a "Attach a database file" type of connection string?
(C) Are there any alternatives?
(D) What do you suggest?
 
Please advise.
Thank you.

The Underlying Connection Was Closed: Could Not Establish Trust Relationship With Remote Server.

Sep 21, 2007


I am trying to setup SQL Server 2000 Reporting services with an SSL connection. The SQL Server (Windows Server 2003 SP2 Standard) and Reporting Server (Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2 Standard) are on separate machines. I have tried setting up Certificates from both and Stand-Alone and Enterprise CA. I have tried several combinations of the Issue To name (server | server.company | server.company.local) I have modified the rsWebApplication.config and rsReportServer.config to match the certificate€™s Issue to exactly. I have tried installs with both Domain Accounts and NT AUTHORITYSYSTEM logins. I have managed to get https://server/ReportServer to work but I have had no luck with the report manager https://server/reports. How do I fix this error?


Thankyou

Nebie Connection Problems With SQL Server 2005 Express And VS 2005

May 10, 2007

I downloaded SQL Server 2005 Express and some sample databases (incl. Adventureworks_data.mdf), but when I try to Add Connection in VS 2005 to point to this db and use the Test Connection button, it gives the error:



---------------------------
Microsoft Visual Studio
---------------------------
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: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)
---------------------------



I've tried setting the data source as either "Microsoft SQL Server Database File" or "Microsoft SQL Server", but get the same error.



Any tips on verifying SQL Srv Express is installed correctly? Any ideas on how to solve this problem?



Thanks in advance.

SQL Server 2005 Express Connection

Mar 23, 2007

I am having trouble connecting to SQL Server 2005 Express using ASP.NET written in VB.NET (1.1 Framework) in VS2003.  I am trying to programmatically connect to the SQL Server.  Since this is a redistributable web application and I don't want to rewrite the connection string every time I distribute a copy, is there any way to automatically get a connection string without prompting the end user for one?  I can get the server name and the data base name, but I don't know how to get a username.  It returns an error saying SERVERASPNET can't log on.  Can anyone help?

Having Connection Problems With SQL Server 2005 Express

Oct 31, 2005

This is a bit of a cross-post from the VS 2005 Forum, but we don't have a forum dedicated to SQL Server 2005...This is on my test machine running Windows XP Pro SP2 (NTFS),I have an existing SQL 2000 database located on a separate hard drive dedicated to data -- the e: drive.I just installed SQL Server 2005 Express, in the default installation directory (c:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server) and I cannot connect to that database on the e: drive.  Named pipes, error: 40 (Remote access services are not installed by default).I don't want the database physically located on the c: drive.I've been looking all over for the solution for this, and can't find it.Advice or direction to reference materials would be appreciated.Tinker

SQL Server 2005 Express Connection Problem!!

Jun 23, 2006

Hello everybody

I`ve installed Visual C# 2005 Express edition for evaluation reasons. After that I also installed Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express edition also for evaluation. I then downloaed the installation scripts for the Northwind database and tried to install them.
Unfortunately, every time I try to execute these scripts I get the error :


C:SQL Server 2000 Sample Databases>osql -E -i instnwnd.sql
[SQL Native Client]Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL
Server [2].
[SQL Native Client]Login timeout expired
[SQL Native Client]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.


I`ve enabled named pipes in the configuration utility, but to no avail. This is also no firewall problem. It just can`t connect to SQL server. Anybody with similar problems or a possible remedy?

Connection Sql Server Express 2005 Over Internet ?

May 24, 2007

Is it possible to connect to a sql server express over internet or not ?

- I am using a win2003 sp1 server. Freshly installed.
- The server is directly connected to internet.
- For the purpose of the test, I stopped the windows firewall and the IPSec service.
- I stopped SQL server Browser service.
- I find a free port (here : 1401)
- I activated TCP/IP protocol in SQL Server Configuration Manager, and I have selected 1401 as the TCP port in the IPAll sextion of TCP/IP protection (and I remove the '0' of the dynamic TCP Port).
- Restarted SQL server express...

In the sql server log, I get the message "Serveur Server is listening on [ 'any' <ipv4> 1401]"

But I never get an answer from the server.

sqlcmd -S ip_of_the_server, 1401 -U username -P password is working fine if launched on the server. But I always get a timeout error from any PC. Same with a telnet on port 1401.

Any idea ?

HELP Sql Server 2005 Express Connection Hangs Up

Apr 9, 2007

Hi



I got an access 2002 application front end with a sql server 2005 express back end. Some of my clients are having some difficulties. After using the application for a while, some of the users are finding that the system just hangs up. It usually happens after the front end application has been running for about an hour (sometimes sooner and sometimes later). There are perhaps 1 to 5 concurrent users and I have checked to see if there are any firewalls stalling it (I think I check all of them)- Is there any way that SQL Server 2005 express could be caused to just stall- This even occurs with the odd laptop. All the appropriate protocols are enabled as well. These databses are not very large.



ANY HELP WOULD BE GREATLY APPRETIATED!!!



Thanks

SQL Server 2005 Express Connection And MS Access

Dec 14, 2007

I just installed SQL Server Management studio express. I am trying to remotely connect to a SQL Server Express 2005 remotely. I was given the server name, user name and password, and used SQL Server authentication. It connected fine, and I was able to get at the intended database.


I then went to ODBC data sources to add this SQL server using SQL authentication. I entered the server, user and password, and I got a nebulous "could not connect" error. I thought is may be because I still was connected in SQL Server Management studio express, so I closed it and tried again with the same error. I then reopened SQL Server Management studio express and tried to reconnect, and got the same nebulous error, and have not been able to connect since.

I tried rebooting and reinstalling SQL Server Management studio express, but had the same result. Does anyone have any idea what I may have done and how to undo?

Thanks,

Steve Colino

HELP!! SQL Server Express 2005 Engine Connection To My DB

Sep 26, 2006

Preface, I am just starting to learn about database and web development.

I installed VS.net 2005 which updated my web site project file and automatically attached it to a database. It connected to ".app_dataaspnetdb.mdf". However it messed something up and the connection didn't work. If I create a project from scratch, it connects to its DB just fine, but not my upgraded project.

However, when I publish my web site, I need to use ODBC. So, my thought was to simply set up the system locally in a way that will make it easy to connect on the web site. I was told to add a system DSN to the "Microsoft ODBC Administrator". I tried to add a "SQL Server" and give it the database name but it failed to connect.

So, then I ran the SQL Server Configuration Manager and looked at the server properties and found this string under the advanced -> startup parameters.."-dc:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDATAmaster.mdf;-ec:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLLOGERRORLOG;-lc:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDATAmastlog.ldf"

My database is in an entirely different folder. The database it looks like it is servicing is a "master.mdf" database installed under the SQL server install folder. So, I figured that I found my problem. I just have to change this file to map to mine. I replaced these three strings with paths to my aspnetdb.mdf/ldf files, and created a LOG folder. Howwever, it wasn't able to connect to this database. It said something like "it doesn't exist or you don't have permission", even though I gave it the right path.

So, I'm at a loss for how to get my application to be able to use the ODBC interface to connect to its very own database on my local system.

What do I need to do? Please help!

SQL Server 2005 Express Connection Fail. Please Help Me

May 16, 2006

Hi all,

When i attempted to connected to Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express via ASP.NET 2.0 application, it seems to throw the following error.

I had set up the Protocols for Express (TCP/IP and Named Pipes are both enabled) to allow remote connections using both TCP/IP and named pipes.
Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.

Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.

Source Error:







The source code that generated this unhandled exception can only be shown when compiled in debug mode. To enable this, please follow one of the below steps, then request the URL:

1. Add a "Debug=true" directive at the top of the file that generated the error. Example:

<%@ Page Language="C#" Debug="true" %>

or:

2) Add the following section to the configuration file of your application:

<configuration>
<system.web>
<compilation debug="true"/>
</system.web>
</configuration>

Note that this second technique will cause all files within a given application to be compiled in debug mode. The first technique will cause only that particular file to be compiled in debug mode.

Important: Running applications in debug mode does incur a memory/performance overhead. You should make sure that an application has debugging disabled before deploying into production scenario.

      providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
  </connectionStrings>

The error i get is:

Connection String To SQL Server 2005 Express Database

Apr 10, 2008

Hi, all. I am using VS.NET 2005 and SQL Server 2005 Express. I tried to use the following code to connect to a database named "AMSPROD" that I attached to SQL Server 2005 Express:
 dbConn = new OleDbConnection(Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename="C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataAMSPROD_Data.MDF";Integrated Security=True;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True);
dbConn.Open();
I got an error asking for provider with the above connection string, then I changed the conncection string to be like follows:
Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename="C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDataAMSPROD_Data.MDF";Provider=SQLNCLI;Integrated Security=True;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True
I got error: No error message available, result code: DB_E_ERRORSOCCURRED(0x80040E21)
Then I changed the Provider to be like: Provider=SQLOLEDB, now I am getting the following error:
Message: "Invalid authorization specification
Invalid connection string attribute"
Source: "Microsoft SQL Native Client"
StackTrace: " at System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnectionInternal..ctor(OleDbConnectionString constr, OleDbConnection connection)
at System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnectionFactory.CreateConnection(DbConnectionOptions options, Object poolGroupProviderInfo, DbConnectionPool pool, DbConnection owningObject)
at System.Data.ProviderBase.DbConnectionFactory.CreateNonPooledConnection(DbConnection owningConnection, DbConnectionPoolGroup poolGroup)
at System.Data.ProviderBase.DbConnectionFactory.GetConnection(DbConnection owningConnection)
at System.Data.ProviderBase.DbConnectionClosed.OpenConnection(DbConnection outerConnection, DbConnectionFactory connectionFactory)

at ISESAMSData.DbConnections.MakeConnection() in C:\ISES\ISESCommon\ISESAMSData\DbConnections.cs:line 74"
TargetSite: {Void .ctor(System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnectionString, System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection)}
Strange thing is, when I use the Connect To Database under Tool menu of VS.NET 2005, I could make the connection to this database. Then I copied this connection string to the code, the connection couln't be made. I feel very confused.
I am wondering if I need to add ASP.NET user to SQLExpress. But I don't know how to do it?
Can anyone please help me out! Many thanks!

Jan 18, 2008

Hey everyone,

I was had just finished creating the architecture for a test databse using sql express 2005 and have been able to get the browser and sql service started just fine. However, When I try to create an oledbconnection or oledbadapter to the database using the Microsoft SQL Server engines I get the following error: I have tried using a direct path to the database in the server name and the computer's name itself. Everything is on the local machine and I have not started remotely connecting. [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).] SQL Server does not exist or access denied. I am using windows authentication and have also specified the direct patht to the database in the attach database file: Thanks for the help.

SQL Express 2005 Connection String Vs SQL Server (latest)

Oct 28, 2007

I'm a student at Boise State university and we're using SQL Express as part of one of our projects for ASP.NET programming. I liked it and I'm trying to use it to power a wiki that I'll be hosting from my home internet connection. The wiki is compatible with MSSQL server, but it won't connect to SQL Express.

I suspect that the problem is in the connection string, mainly because the apps we're developing for class use a connection string like:
<add name="AspNetForumConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=localhostsqlexpress;Initial Catalog=gaming.forum.nxnw;User ID=*********;Password=*********;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>

and note the Data Source. The wiki I'm using is PHP based and uses ADObd to connect databases and has a driver for MSSQL, but not SQL Express (no surprise, really). I know just enough php to be dangerous to code and I've tried modifying the adodb-mssql.inc.php, but I can't seem to make the right change.

So, all that said, my question is: Is there a way to change what SQL Express 2005 will accept as a connection string? I've been looking, but I'm not even sure what the setting would be called.

Thanks,
Les

Not Able To Establish A Connection To My Database In C#.

May 2, 2007

Could someone help me out? I am stuck and I don't have $245.00 to pay for Microsoft Technical phone support.
Basically I am trying to establish a connection to my database using C#. When I try to connect I can step into the line of code, but an exception is thrown.
Error message in the debugger:
ServerVersion = 'myConnection.ServerVersion' threw an exception of type 'System.InvalidOperationException'
 
C# code:
SqlConnection myConnection = new SqlConnection("Data Source=BVCOMPUTER;Initial Catalog=TheMarket;User ID =bill;Password=celebrate4ever");
When the above line of code is executed, then In the IDE debugger when I do a watch on myConnection, there is a tree node labeled "ServerVersion" The following messageis displayed there:
Also there appears to be a property of "ServerVersion"  named "base".The error message stored there is the following: base {"Invalid operation. The connection is closed."} System.SystemException {System.InvalidOperationException}
----------------------------------------------------
Note that I can drag and drop a grid control on my web form and point to the database I want to connect to. But for some reason when I manually try to connect, I am not able to.

Could Not Establish A Connection To The Database

Aug 8, 2007

Hi!

My name is George. I have installed Microsoft Visual Web Development 2008 Exress Edition Beta, and when I want to use the Web Site Administration Tool and test the AspNetSqlProvider it says me this:

"Could not establish a connection to the database.
If you have not yet created the SQL Server database, exit the Web Site Administration tool, use the aspnet_regsql command-line utility to create and configure the database, and then return to this tool to set the provider."

I don't know what to I do? I have enabled the IP/TPC and name pipes at SQL Server Surface Area Configuration, and I have used the aspnet_regsql to setup the ASP.NET and SQL Database, but the setup field it says this:

"System.Web.HttpException: Unable to connect to SQL Server database. ---> System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.
