I am using Dreamweaver 8 on Windows XP. I am trying to connect to SQL Server 2005. My connection string isn't right. I ran the OBDC test and it works so I know its the connection string. My webpages give me the error that the server does not exist or access denied. When I use anything else like SQLNCLI.1 for the provider it gives me the error that the provider is not found. What should the connection string consist of and what should I use for Provider?
I added a connection (ADO.NET) object by name testCon in the connection manager - I wanted to programmatically supply the connection string. So I used the "Expressions" property of the connection object and set the connectionstring to one DTS variable. The idea is to supply the connection string value to the variable - so that the connection object uses my connection string.
Then I added a "Backup Database Task" to my package with the name BkpTask. Now whenever I try to set the connection property of BkpTask to the testCon connection object, by typing testCon, it automatically gets cleared. I am not able to set the connection value.
Then after spending several hours I found that this is because I have customized the connection string in testCon. If I don't customize the connection string, I am able to enter the "testCon" value in the connection property of the BkpTask.
Hi, I'm having a BIG problem, this is my 3rd day looking for answer !I'm trying to create a custom membership provider with MS SQL database 2005 but not the default ASPNETDB. I've changed the web.config to be as following:<connectionStrings><add name="sqlConn" connectionString="Data Source=.;Integrated Security=True;Initial Catalog=ASPNETDB;"providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" /></connectionStrings> <system.web><trace enabled="true" /><roleManager enabled="true" /><authentication mode="Forms" /> <membership defaultProvider="MySqlProvider"><providers><remove name="AspNetSqlProvider"/><add name="MySqlProvider" connectionStringName="SqlConn" type="System.Web.Security.SqlMembershipProvider" applicationName="/" /></providers></membership> But when I try to login to the site using the login control the following error occurs: Server Error in '/etest' Application.

I am using sqljdbc41.jar to connect with MSSQL database, it is working fine on my local machine.Where as on the remote server, same class giving me error
Login failed for user '<domain><windows loginID>' My connection string is URL...
I am using sqljdbc41.jarĀ and on 64 bit processor , I am using following command which included path for sqljdbc_auth.dll java -Djava.library.path= C: sqljdbc_4.1enuauthx64 TestDao and error is Login failed for user '<domain><windows loginID>' why it is not picking up username passed in connection string. I have 2 machines, one is local and other is remote. on both machine I login using my domain, it is working absolutely fine on local then why the error is coming on remote machine.Both the machines are identical.
I have been trying to host my website on Go Daddy for about 3 weeks and I have cleared several problems but this one remains. I can get into the ASPNETDB database for doing logins , etc but I cant access my database called "PINEmgt". To try to understand where the problem is located,I built a very simple application without login controls and put on it one Detailform accessing a single line table "Signin". I continually get the error message I got with my real app :"The connection name 'PINEMgtConnectionString2' was not found in the applications configuration or the connection string is empty. " There is only one connection string in my app -'PINEMgtConnectionString2'. When I run the app locally on my machine it works. After I move everything to Go Daddy, I get the error message and the following dump"
Line 24: </Fields> Line 25: </aspetailsView> Line 26: <aspqlDataSource ID="SqlDataSource1" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStringsINEMgtConnectionString2 %>" Line 27: InsertCommand="INSERT INTO Signup(first_name, last_name, email, customer_id) VALUES (,,,)" Line 28: SelectCommand="SELECT * FROM [Signup]"></aspqlDataSource>
This is indeed the code from my single page app.
The dump is:
[InvalidOperationException: The connection name 'PINEMgtConnectionString2' was not found in the applications configuration or the connection string is empty.] System.Web.Compilation.ConnectionStringsExpressionBuilder.GetConnectionString(String connectionStringName) +3039085 ASP.default_aspx.__BuildControlSqlDataSource1() in d:hostinguck7scoutDefault.aspx:26 ASP.default_aspx.__BuildControlform1() in d:hostinguck7scoutDefault.aspx:10 ASP.default_aspx.__BuildControlTree(default_aspx __ctrl) in d:hostinguck7scoutDefault.aspx:1 ASP.default_aspx.FrameworkInitialize() in d:hostinguck7scoutDefault.aspx.vb:912306 System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequest(Boolean includeStagesBeforeAsyncPoint, Boolean includeStagesAfterAsyncPoint) +40 System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequest() +86 System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequestWithNoAssert(HttpContext context) +18 System.Web.UI.Page.ProcessRequest(HttpContext context) +49 ASP.default_aspx.ProcessRequest(HttpContext context) +29 System.Web.CallHandlerExecutionStep.System.Web.HttpApplication.IExecutionStep.Execute() +303 System.Web.HttpApplication.ExecuteStep(IExecutionStep step, Boolean& completedSynchronously) +64
After Googleing, asking Go Daddy for info (which they dont give) , etc for three weeks, I need serious mental help in the form of a solution of this problem. Your help with the problem or the name of a good mental health professional in eastern N.C. (maybe both) would be appreciated.
I have seen another thread with this same problem, but the problem seemed to be a typo. I am getting an error when I try to access the web site ..

I have a child package where the ConnectionString property of a Connection Manager is set by a Parent Package Variable Configuration. I set up a script task that brings up a message box with the value of the ConnectionString property right before the dataflow task.
MessageBox.Show(Dts.Connections["CPU_*"].ConnectionString.ToString());When I run the parent package, the message box shows that the connection string is changing with every iteration, but in the dataflow it always draws the data from the same source.
The connection manager is an ADO.Net type, RetainSameConnection is set to False, and I've been researching this for days.
(Update 2/23/2015): To make this stranger, when I look at the diagnostic logs, they tell me that when the new connections are being opened they are using the new connection strings.
This is the first time I have used SSIS, so please bear with the ignorance.
I have a super simple package that inserts x000's of rows into a temporary table. The data source is a file that the user will upload. I need to be able to tell the package what file to upload. I'm thinking the simplest thing would be to edit the connectionString property of the SourceConnectionFlatFile at runtime. Is this possible? What form should the file path be in (UNC, other)? And, are there any other considerations I should be aware of?
I hope that I am just missing a step in the process somewhere. I have established a string variable called DatabaseServer and another called DatabaseName. In the OLE DB connectionstring expression I have the following:
My understanding is that changing the variable from SERVERA to SERVERB should repoint the connection. (Test to pre-production to production in my current promotion environment.) This should also take effect in any dataflow task using the database connection above right? When I try to repoint the server variable (and only the server variable) I am either a.)throwing errors saying the original connection cannot be found in the data flow task, or b.)the job appears to be processing fine, but the repoint did not take place and data is still flowing to the original server.
Can anyone offer suggestions as to what I am missing?
The properties values in the DB connection:
ConnectionManagerType is OLEDB
DataSourceID is blank
DelayValidation is False (Setting to true changes nothing in my test)
Expression for ConnectionString is (see above)
RetainSameConnection is False
SupportsDTCTTransactions is True (and appears to be unchangeable.)
Hi, I need your help!!!!!!!!!! Ii'm running the application using the sql SDK version , i'm having trouble openning the connection. my connection string is: strConnect="data source=DEFAULT_WINXP\VSDOTNET;initial catalog=try1;integrated security=SSPI;persist security info=True;workstation id=DEFAULT_WINXP;packet size=4096"; and i get an exception: Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: Login failed for user 'DEFAULT_WINXPASPNET'. this is my code:

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) ive got this error and i think its about connection string, help please, can somebody show me how to fix this, obviously im a newbie and this my first time to use .net. thanks!
hi, i was just wondering what's wrong with my code. i have class library to handle all the classes of my asp.net project. when im compiling a class, i am getting an error "Error 1 The name 'ConfigurationManager' does not exist in the current context " . i have this code for that error message: string connStr = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ConnString"].ConnectionString; im not sure about this because im new in asp.net. am i missing a reference here?if yes, what namespace should i include? by the way, i tested this directly in my asp.net age and it is working fine. when i use visual c#.net, that's where the error prompts me, and i cant build that class library.
hi, ok im not sure if this is in the right forum, so sorry if its not. basicly, before i optained a licence for SQL Server 2005 Dev i was using SQL Server 2005 Express. now in IIS iv found the following entery in Connect Strings data source=.SQLEXPRESS;Integrated Security=SSPI;AttachDBFilename=|DataDirectory|aspnetdb.mdf;User Instance=true basicly, what i want to know is do i need this entery, and if so, do i need to edit it? thanks
Hi , I've been searching for this answer for a few hours now but unfortunately I still can not sort it. I'm attempting to make a "Database Driven Hierarchical Menu" from this tutorial http://aspalliance.com/822 It explains in the tutorial that you must change the connection string to point to your database and add user name and password. (i dont have a user name or password for my local server, or atleast I dont think I do!) Below is my connection string:DataSet ds = new DataSet(); string connStr = "server=localhost;Trusted_Connection=true;database=Product.mdf";using (SqlConnection conn = new SqlConnection(connStr)) {string sql = "Select MenuID, Text, Description, ParentID from Menu";SqlDataAdapter da = new SqlDataAdapter(sql, conn); da.Fill(ds); da.Dispose();
Every time I try to run the page I get this error. Cannot open database requested in login 'Product.mdf'. Login fails.Login failed for user '*****' Can anyone see where I'm going wrong? I'm quite new to all this so I apologies if this seems a bit stupid. Many Thanks
I have the following code: ' Dim connStr As String = System.Configuration.ConfigurationManager.AppSettings("AppDoc") Rather than use the AppSettings within Configuration Manager, I just want to use the connection string. I've seen examples of this in CS but none in VB. Can someone point me in the right direction? I thought it would be something like this but it doesn't work: Dim connStr As SqlDataSource = New SqlDataSource(ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["AppDoc"].ConnectionStrings)

Could someone help me with my connection string and how I should create it? I have a Windows 2003 server running MS Sql 2005. This is a separate server, meaning I'm developing my ASPX code on my laptop and FTP the code over to the server. I'm not sure how to write my connection string. Should My current connection string point to my locally hosted DB. Now that I have my own server should I replace my current 'localhost' entry with the server's IP address? Do I need to create a DNS on the server? Sorry, I'm very new to all this and I'm lost. Any help would be greatly appricated.
