ODBC Connections
Oct 23, 2007
Hi.
I'm sorry of my english.
I have to servers.
Server A (local machine).
Server B (Remote machine with Integration Services withpackages after deployment).
In Server B i have some packages with ODBC connection..
In the Server A I have created the same ODBC connection.
I need to execute the packages that are in the Server B in the Server A.
I execute them throw dtexec in cmd in the Server A.
The problem is that it starts to execute but gives an execution error because it gets confused with what Server system should be used (both have the same ODBC connection).
If I run the packages throw cmd in the Server B everything goes OK.
Can anyone help me!?
Thanks.
ODBC Connections Disappearing
Mar 12, 2008I have set up 80 connections to the SQL Server - mostly through code. People have been successfully using the database, but then when they come in to use their computer and the database the next day, their connection is completely gone! What is that all about? So far this has happened to 2 or 3 different users. Any idea why?
Thanks.
ODBC Connections And SSIS

I was wondering if there is a way to move ODBC connections between SQL servers? We are replacing our current server with newer hardware, and I have pretty much everything figured out except this.
Thanks for any help and/or hints.
SSIS Is Pathetic With ODBC Connections ...
Nov 30, 2007We have spent days trying to perform a proof of concept and I amdissappointed with SSIS to say the least. We are trying to connect andfetch data from a Double Byte Progress database and the "DataReaderSource" using a ADO .NET ODBC provider does not work! I understandthat SSIS is a totally rewritten version of DTS. What annoys me isthat this functionality used to work in DTS and does not in the muchtalked about SSIS!! Will someone in Microsoft start listening tocustomers instead of gloating on useless features. SSIS is a totalwaste if it cannot connect and fetch data from a wide variety ofsource databases!!

Oct 4, 2007I have a user AD account SOPUSJSmith for example. I have given this account security admin at the SQL Server level and dbo at the database level. Is there any way to prevent them from using ODBC to pull data into an Access DB or an Excel spreadsheet?

Multiple Odbc Connections And Transactions
Jan 3, 2008I am using ODBC to connect to SQL Server. The documentation says that ODBC transactions are managed on the connection level and cannot span connections.
Does this mean that two instances of my code using transactions (each with its own process and a single connection) in the same machine accessing the same database will not play nice together (violate transaction rules)?
Thanks
Single SQL Query To Two Foxpro (ODBC) Connections
Nov 4, 2004Dear All,
I like to know if anyone of you out there can help me solve this issue. I need to generate an SQL Query to access two different FOXPro (databases) connections.
Example,
Connection 1 - has a DSN setup of CMSBM and it sits in the path of D:/CMS/CMSBM/= and the table is bmboml15
Connection 2 - has a DSN setup of CMSMA and it sits in the path of
D:/CMS/CMSMA/= and the table is maprodl15
I am coding in ASP.NET using C#. I have tried the command like:
SELECT codeno, link, type FROM bmboml15 IN CMSBM INNER JOIN maprodl15 IN CMSMA ON bmboml15.codeno = maprodl15.codeno.
Obviously the above query is not a working one and a very poor construction.
Please help!
Thanks

T-SQL (SS2K8) :: Conditional Multiple ODBC Connections
Feb 4, 2015If I have 100 ODBC clients all submitting the following SQL at the same time how do I know that the SQL inside the conditional only gets executed once. It appear SQL Server is preventing it from happening but was curious how. Or do I need to add something to prevent it from happening.

BEGIN
CREATE table mytable (task int NOT NULL, first_name varchar(128), last_name varchar(128))

Connecting To ODBC Connections With Report Services
Sep 29, 2006I have just migrated from SQL 2000 to SQL 2005 and in the process upgraded to new hardware. I am now running SQL2005 (64 Bit) on Windows 2003 R2 (64 Bit). The problem is that when i deploy some reports to the new server that use ODBC to connect to the data, reporting services is erroring with :
Data source name not found and no default driver specified
The ODBC connections are set up exactly the same on the old server and the new server. Is it because it is looking for a 64 bit ODBC driver and not the 32 Bit one I have installed. If i go into the SysWOW64 and run the odbcad32.exe i can see the drivers and the connection. The connection test works fine from here.
Thanks
ODBC Connections Hang When Cluster Group Moves
Jan 1, 2000When I move an SQL group to the other cluster member, it seems that the ODBC connections hang on the client web servers, and do not process any queries until they are rebooted. I'm using IIS/Cold fusion web servers with an SQL 7.0 Cluster (MSCS). Any ideas why this may be happening?
Thanks,

Database Mirroring, Client Connections All ODBC So What Methods Are Recommended?
Jun 5, 2006As stated in the subject I have a situation where if database mirroring is employed for either manual or automatic failover, all the client (including web connections) connections use ODBC not ADO, or OLEDB etc... so what methods are recommended? Client side redirect is not available so I could not employe the "Data Source =A; Failover Partner=B..." option.
Right now the method employed (pre database mirroring and basically employing log shipping on SQL 2000) is to have a DNS alias for the ODBC connection so that if the server were to change in a failover situation the DNS record would have to be altered, so that all the client connections would not have to be reconfigured.

Database Create ODBC Connections To Access Database Directly And Update Data?
Sep 10, 2012We have a SQL database that uses Active Directory with Windows Authentication. Can users that are members of the Active Directory group that has read/write access to the SQL database create ODBC connections to access the database directly and update the data? They dont have individual logins on the server. They are only members of the Active Directory group that has a login?

How Can I Use Create Or Alter Statements With ODBC And Microsoft Access ODBC Driver (*mdb)?
May 13, 2007
Hi,
I am using VB.NET 2005 and set up an ODBC connection via ODBC.ODBCConnection to a MDB database. Therefor, I use the "Microsoft Access ODBC Driver (*.mdb)".
When I set up a ODBCCommand like "ALTER DATABASE..." or "CREATE TABLE..." and issue it with the com.ExecuteNonQuery() command, I get an error from ODBC driver, that a SQL statement has to begin with SELECT, INSERT, UPDATE or DELETE.
How can I use DDL statements via ODBC?
I would appreciate if you could help me to use ODBC for that - no OLE, no ADO.
Thanks for help!

Can't Find SQL Native Client In ODBC Connection Manager In SQL Server Open Database Connectivity (ODBC)
Feb 13, 2007I apologize if this is not the correct forum for this posting. Looking at the descriptions, it appeared to be the best choice.
I am running Windows XP Pro SP2. I have installed the SQL Native Client for
XP. However, when I try to add a new data source through ODBC Connection
Manager, SQL Native Client is not listed as an option. I have followed this procedure on three other systems with no problems. What would be causing the
SQL Native Client to not show up in the list of available ODBC data sources?
MS OLE DB For ODBC With Oracle ODBC Source Headaches
Dec 25, 2005Hi all,I am having trouble getting linked Oracle 9 server in MS SQL Server2005 Express to work properly. My machine is running Windows XP.The Microsoft and Oracle OLE DB Providers have problems dealing withOracle's Numeric Data Type, so I decided to use Microsoft's OLE DB forODBC Provider and an Oracle ODBC source. When using the Microsoft ODBCfor Oracle Driver in my ODBC source I have inconsistent behavior.Sometimes my queries are processed properly, then other times I get thefollowing errorOLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "ODBCBEAST" returnedmessage "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttrfailed".OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "ODBCBEAST" returnedmessage "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttrfailed".OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "ODBCBEAST" returnedmessage "[Microsoft][ODBC driver for Oracle][Oracle]".Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL"for linked server "ODBCBEAST".I have no idea why sometimes I can connect to the linked server with noproblems andwhy other times it performs like this. I'm not changing anything aboutthe system I can think of. When I use an Oracle client (PL/SQL) I haveabsolutely no problems connecting. TNSPING returns that the connectionis good.This is unacceptable so I decided to try my luck with the Oracle 10gODBC driver. However when I use this and perform an openquery selectagainst the linked server I get back only 11 rows, when I know that thedatabase has over 100 rows (in fact when using the Microsoft ODBCdriver and it works that's what I get). I figured maybe the buffersetting needed to be raised in the ODBC configuration so I took it from64000 to 600000 (a magnitude of 10) but I still get back only 11 rows.I'm at my wit's end.Any suggestions on resolving one or the other problem would be muchappreciated.Thanks much

Jul 20, 2005Just a quick question about connection management. My application willnever need more than 1 or 2 connections about at any given time.

Some Ms SQL Connections
Dec 27, 2007Hi I have some simple questions of for MS SQL. Say I have a database with a table Called Company. In this table I have Employee's with these columns(EmployeeID<PK>, FirstName, LastName) Now I am inserting some data like this.EmployeeID FirstName, LastName------------------------------------------------------- 1 Bob Smith2 Joe Mitter Now Say I have this situation(this will look weird for this example but for another examples and the stuff I am working on it make sense). Say I have a new Employee Called Jessica White. Jessica must be the second record. So I need to insert it between the 1st and 2nd record. Like I said I am very noob at doing this stuff so I am not sure how I would do it. I first was going to my table and then went to modify. This brought up a blank grid with all my column names. I then started to add all my data in. I found out later to make my life easier I need to enter in certain spots null rows in it to help with formating(otherwise I would have had to figure out a way to do make null rows with c# code). I then went back to this grid and I tried to add a record before the data just like you if you used excel. I quickly found out you can not do that. This resulted me having to recreate the table and reput the all the data back in(this told me I was doing something very very wrong). I was then thinking of writing it with a query and I been playing around with it and still running into problems like say I had a table called test with a coloum called id<PK> and testss(yes bad names just playing around though).So if I did something like this:INSERT INTO testVALUES(2)INSERT INTO testVALUES(1)SELECT * FROM testNow I am trying to figure out how to insert something between rows 1 and 2. Would I have to drop the table or delete all the data and then run a saved copy of my script with the added change or what?My second question is what is a good site that has examples of all the commands(I don't want to read a book on it I have had a oracle sql course and well it was just boring and I did not learn too much.). I think the best way for me to learn is just continue doing my site and picking it up on the file and when I got a problem read about it and ask on the forums. Thanks

Too Many SQL Connections
Jun 11, 2004We have a case where a user is using Excel sheet to connect the database on SQL2K and generally his connection runs in the upper 150 in numbers. He generally gets more than 150 connections open.
I know that it's not a good thing, but is there a way to limit it or even kill it after it reaches max?
What are the disadvantages of opening too many connections?
Out Of Connections... Or Am I?

please any ideas
