Error: 25 - Connection String Is Not Valid -- HELP Please!
Jul 25, 2006
I have been having a problem trying to connect to a SQL Server. I have installed the Developer edition on an MS Small Business edition 2003 server
I also installed MS Sql Manager and I was able to create a database and connect to it. The database server is in the same PC. I used the surface configuration to enable remote connections using TCP /IP and pipe lines.
My application runs without a problem on my development machine but when I deployed on this server I get the provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 25 - Connection string is not valid Error.
I have google and yahoo this error I found a lot of information I've tried many of them but still having the problem. I will appreciate your help solving this problem. I have a customer waiting since last week to see this site and I'm still stuck.

OK - I have seen lots posted on this, but the behavior is very strange, and I am trying to understand: I am using Visual Basic 2003 with SQLEXPRESS 2005 to connect to a database and to develop a desktop application. My connection string is:
"An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file C:Documents and SettingsBrianMy DocumentsCompressor Program DevelopmentinCWW.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share."
However, if I copy the database to anywhere else on the "c:" drive, the connection works, as in the following:
What I have found is that ist works everywhere on my computer except in the following location:
"c:documents and settingsBrian", which includes My Documents, Desktop folders.
Why is this??
Any help would be great - I can work around this by moving my development folder to the "c:" drive. Since my ultimate application directory will be the "Program Files" directory I should be fine.
Hi,I am getting this error: String was not recognized as a valid DateTime.I'm trying to insert data into a table from a gridview, where two of the dates can be empty strings.I have set 'allow null' in the SQL Server table for the two dates, added the culture in the web.config file, and even tried converting the values to DBNull.None of which have worked, and I am still getting the error.This is the code I am using: if (e.CommandName == "EmptyInsert") { if (Page.IsValid == true) { TextBox txtVisitDateIns = GridView2.Controls[0].Controls[0].FindControl("txtVisitDateIns") as TextBox; TextBox txtNextVisitDateIns = GridView2.Controls[0].Controls[0].FindControl("txtNextVisitDateIns") as TextBox; TextBox txtVisitedByIns = GridView2.Controls[0].Controls[0].FindControl("txtVisitedByIns") as TextBox; DropDownList ddlPriorityIns = GridView2.Controls[0].Controls[0].FindControl("ddlPriorityIns") as DropDownList; TextBox txtMailshotDateIns = GridView2.Controls[0].Controls[0].FindControl("txtMailshotDateIns") as TextBox;
if (txtNextVisitDateIns.Text == "") txtNextVisitDateIns.Text = DBNull.Value.ToString(); if (txtMailshotDateIns.Text == "") txtMailshotDateIns.Text = DBNull.Value.ToString();
SPVisitsBLL visits = new SPVisitsBLL(); visits.AddVisit(Convert.ToInt32(GridView1.SelectedValue.ToString()), Convert.ToDateTime(txtVisitDateIns.Text.ToString()), Convert.ToDateTime(txtNextVisitDateIns.Text.ToString()), txtVisitedByIns.Text.ToString(), Convert.ToInt32(ddlPriorityIns.SelectedValue.ToString()), Convert.ToDateTime(txtMailshotDateIns.Text.ToString())); GridView2.DataBind(); } } I haven't checked txtVisitDateIns to see if it is an empty string as this date is required.Can anyone help?Thanks
Can anybody point me to a list of all valid string formats for passing in datetime variables into SQL server. Ideally I just want to put in a date and not bother with a time
I am passing a string to my stored procedure call where I convert it to a DateTime. I have pasted the relevant code below. My trouble is that prior to execution of the stored procedure an error is thrown "String was not recognized as a valid DateTime". The error does not get thrown when I pass it a date, it only throws it when no date is provided. The page I am using is a form to do a search. The search can allow a date to be entered or left out. How do I catch an empty value in the c# for an invalid datetime and still send the variable to the stored procedure. //////////////////////////// C# Code /////////////////////////////////// Passing the Date to a stored Procedure SqlParameter bdpDateFrom = new SqlParameter("@datefrom", SqlDbType.DateTime);bdpDateFrom.Value = Convert.ToDateTime(thisbdpDateFrom);myCommand.Parameters.Add(bdpDateFrom); ///////////////////////// Stored Procedure Code //////////////////////////////////@datefrom datetimeIF ((@datefrom IS NOT NULL) AND (@datefrom <>' '))BEGIN SET @whereclause = @whereclause + ' AND T1.c330101invoicedate_dt >= ''' + convert(varchar,@datefrom) + ''''END Thank you!

I got this error report "The string was not recognized as a valid DateTime. There is a unknown word starting at index 0." at this line of code in BOLD.
For some reasons the datetime format in the database has the (US datetime format - 05/02/2008 06:40 instead of United Kingdom (UK date time format - 02/05/2008 06:40), as I had planned. I have tried to reformat the database and VB date format and all to no success.Could this be the root of my problems?

I have a table with one of the column(EmpHiredate) datatype is char(10). It has value like "20141023". I need to display this value as date format(dd/mm/yyyy) in report. Following methods i tried in textbox expression but no luck.
Error:[rsRuntimeErrorInExpression] The Value expression for the textrun ‘EmpHireDate.Paragraphs[0].TextRuns[0]’ contains an error: Conversion from string "20041023  " to type 'Date' is not valid.
Is it possible to convert string to date using SSRS textbox expression ?
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.
i cannot seem to get rid of this error. My page works in other functions that have the same syntax and format. just this one doesnt. i tried changing the format but still the same thing. SQL DB is DateTime. Any Suggestions?

I have an SSIS package that I need to modify. It was developed in Visual Studio 2005 and runs faithfully in production on SQL Server 2005. Suddenly, I can't open the package on my own workstation. I see a big red "X" image and a message stating "Microsoft Visual Studio is unable to load this document." The real reason the document can't be loaded appears to be:
Error loading DataWarehouseLoader.dtsx: The connection type "OLEDB" specified for connection manager "Warehouse Logging OLE DB" is not recognized as a valid connection manager type. This error is returned when an attempt is made to create a connection manager for an unknown connection type. Check the spelling in the connection type name.
Does anyone know what causes this and what I can do? The package has been in production for 9 months and I've never seen this problem before.

I want to set a Report Parameter on a field. The Report Parameter is called 'filter'. In the statement I put the Report Parameter in the WHERE-part: WHERE ([DatabaseName$TableName].[FieldName] = @filter). After this I set the 'Available values' on the Report Parameter in the lay-out to Non-queried. When the report is running, no problems.
But.....
Now I want to set 'Available values' on 'From Query' and refer to the data set, so the user can choose on which value he want to filter. But now, after running the preview the following error displays: Error 1 [rsInvalidReportParameterDependency] The report parameter €˜filter€™ has a DefaultValue or a ValidValue that depends on the report parameter €œfilter€?. Forward dependencies are not valid.
Why can't I set the Report Parameter to 'From Query'? Anyone any suggestions???
