Problem When Try To Config Replication
Aug 11, 2007
Hi guys, i m just started to learn replication (and new to sql server as well). and got a problem when trying out instructions from MSDN, when i try to start new publication wizard. the following error message comes up. could anyone tell me what's going on?
===================================
Cannot connect to NATURE.
===================================
SQL Server replication requires the actual server name to make a connection to the server. Connections through a server alias, IP address, or any other alternate name are not supported. Specify the actual server name, 'ComputerFans'. (Replication.Utilities)
------------------------------
Program Location:
in Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.UI.ReplicationSqlConnection.CheckServerAlias(ServerConnection conn)
in Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.UI.ReplicationSqlConnection.ValidateConnection(UIConnectionInfo connInfo, IServerType server)
in Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.UI.ConnectionDlg.Connector.ConnectionThreadUser()
is it some thing to do with my installation of sql server? btw, i m using sql server 2005
thanks a lot

Hi
I am trying to setup merge replication using web sync. I keep on getting the message: The Proxy Auto-configuration URL was not found. Yes I have read all the postings telling me to check my internet explorer settings concerning proxy server and auto-detection - I am not using a proxy - auto detection is unchecked.
Does anyone have another clue?
Thanks

Currently have a single hard coded file path to the SSRS config file which parses the file and provides the reporting services web service url. My question is how would i run this same query against 100s of servers that may or may not share the same file path as the one hard coded ?
Is there a way to query the registry to find the location of the config file of any server ? which could be on D, E, F, H, etc.
I know I can string together the address followed by "reports" and named instance if needed, but some instances may not have used the default virtual directory name (Reports).
Am I going about this the hard way ? Is there a location where the web service url exists in a table ? I could not locate anything in the Reporting service database. Basically need to inventory all of my reporting services url's.

Hello all,
I'd like to know what's considered a best practice in the following scenario...
We're in the process of converting DTS to SSIS, our current SQL2K setup has one DTS package per database, each database and package are mirror images of each other, with the exception of connection properties and the files path's they pull from. (Occasionally there may be a one off Execute SQL Task that differs from package to package...but this will be handled in a different manner outside of the package from this point on)
From a administration perspective this has been somewhat cumbersome, as every time there is a schema change we need to update the transformations in each individual package...after updating 120 packages my index finger has a bad case of carpel tunnel!
My thought with SSIS is that I can create one package, with many configuration files (one for each database).
Now my question is, 1) is this a good idea? 2) Anytime we create a new database (New Customer = New Database) and need to create a new xml config file, do I have to create the config in BIS/SSIS package then redeploy the package?...or Can I simply add a new config file to the appropriate directory and reference this config in the scheduled job?
Any suggestions are greatly appreciated!

Hi,My application is acting weird and the research I've done leads me to an answer why it's breaking, but not how to fix it.My web app is hosted by a remote company. I have the main website sitting in the root web directory and in a subfolder I have another application that will handle login and updating the content in the SQL 2K5 backend (not an Express DB).The website itself is able to pull in informaiton from the DB without any trouble, so I know it's able to connect to the DB and everything is peachy. The login app though is acting as though it can't get to the DB. I've applied the ASPNET schema to the DB using the aspnet_regsql.exe from the framework and the login application is using the same connection string as the main website.One thing to note here is that the website and the login app have seperate web.config files since they were developed as different projects.With my customized provider defined in the web.config for the login app I get this error on page load:"Parser Error Message: It
is an error to use a section registered as
allowDefinition='MachineToApplication' beyond application level. This
error can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an
application in IIS." If I comment out the custom provider, the page loads but when I try to create a user it tells me that "...the SQL Server couldn't be contacted. This may be because it doesn't accept remote connections." Thing of it is that it's not a remote connection and it's the same connection string and db as the other site.Now, the research I've done points at the two different web.config files, which makes sense. But how do I make the one web.config work for both the website and the subdirectory with the login app? Keep in mind that I can't create any new virtual directories or modify IIS since this is a remote hosting company.Can someone help me understand the fix with a little more clarity?

Hi,
I'm kind of the first person at my new company to start a project using SSIS. My question(s) revolves around setup and configuration, maybe even best practices.
1. Connection Manager Config - What are some of the methods you use to config your connection managers? I was planning on creating a folder (C:SSISConfig or something) and keeping a config file for each connection there. That way it would be fairly trivial for each developer to also put said folder on there box for deving.
2. Solution set up - Are people creating solutions for each package or just using one Master solution and adding all the packages to that? Or maybe some combination, like having solutions for different areas of functionality or something..? I'm trying to figure out what the pain points are with different approaches.
If you have any other information or horror stories about SSIS that you think might help, feel free to pass them along.
Thanks,
-Ryan

Hello All,
I am trying to use a custom C# dll from within a script task. The C# dll relies on the Enterprise Library 2.0. Where do I put the enterprise library configuration when I am debugging a package and then when I have the package in production. I cannot find any documentation anywhere on this.

I am using vs2005 and have a solution file with 4 projects, 2 of which are presentation layers (admin sections), 1 is a business logic layer, the other a data access layer.
The data access layer project is simply a class library that will provide data access functionality. Im using a dataset (xsd) to create my data access objects. My question is how do I select a connection string from the web config file (which is in each of the presentation layer projects) as the data access layer is a class library there is no web.config. Using the connection string selector in the dataset wizard doesnt show any available connection strings.

Hi the data connectionstring will be generated automatically in web.config file after dragging a data table from database into webpage.for example: <configuration> <add name="SQLProfileConnString" connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|MSPetShop4Profile.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/> </> But what if I have to write the connectionString part myself, I mean where I can get the syntax of it?

When I connect locally, my app runs fine. But when I try to connect via FTP to a dedicated server, I can't connect at all. My connection string is in the web.config file. I noticed that the sessionState in web.config is automatically generated with the standard sa blank pwd. I still can't connect even when I change this to the correct uid and pwd. Does anyone know what I need to do? My conn string's data source is "." Please help.
Thank you,

I've defined my connection string in the web.config file:
<add name="RealtorXConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=localhostSQLExpress;Initial Catalog=RealtorX;User ID=sa;password=welcome" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
Now I want to get that string and use it in some code where I'm going to run a query against the database. This query happens in PageLoad, and won't be bound to any UI component. How can I replace XXXXX below with the value stored in web.config?
Dim strConnection As String = XXXXX
Dim cn As Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection = New Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection(strConnection)
cn.Open()

This was directly from BOL.
/Conf[igFile] filespec
(Optional). Specifies a configuration file to extract values from. Using this option, you can set a run-time configuration that differs from the configuration that was specified at design time for the package. You can store different configuration settings in an XML configuration file and then load the settings before package execution by using the /ConfigFile option.
Does this mean that I can specify which configuration file to use during runtime?
Or is just because I'm too desperate for that, I understood that way
Thanks

Hi
In toder to make my SSIS packages portable, I need to be able to set connection string to sql package configuration. I thought I can do that via XML package, problem is, at execution time SQL server package configuration is queried first, then variables from XML.
This way, I have no chance to set connection via XML.
Any ideas on how to aproach this ?
(I want to have as much configuration on SQL server so I can modify it easily from future GUI application.
best regards

I have a simple SSIS Package where the Connections are specified in Configuration files, which was built locally and I wanted to deploy it to a server. Looking at the different options I decided to try the "Import Package..." from Management Studio (SSMS), since I have limited access to the server (and no access to the file system). It does appear to have imported the package from the local file system to the servers "SSIS Package Store".
My question is, what happened to the Configurations files when a package is imported?
When I "Run Package" from SSMS, the Execute Package Utility shows Connection Managers with only part of the connection info, but it executes just fine. Also, it shows no Configurations at all.
My impression is that during "import" the connection managers are created from a snapshot of the current Configurations, so what ends up in SSIS are static connection managers, not Configurations. However I can't seem to find any documentation one way or the other. Also, I suspect that the only reason the partial connection info actually works is due to dtexecUI (?) running locally under my own account.
Any information is greatly appreciated.
Thanks

I have a simple SSIS package which includes one Analysis Services Processing Task. I have created a connection manager object (cmo) and assigned it to the AS task. Within the cmo I selected a specific user name and
password to log on to the server with. Tested this [domain][user account] and it works. Now here is the problem. When I run the package either in debug mode or from a command line, the packages ignores the connection manager and
attemps to use the account I am logged into the server with.
Using a config file to hold the credentials does not work either. When DTEXEC is used, the package attempts to use the credientials used to log in to the server.
Does anyone have any ideas why this is happening?

Hi All!
I've been struggling with a problem I have. When I use DTEXECUI to run a package and manually add the config file, it gets ignored and there is no warning as such.
Here's the set up:
1) create SSIS package that uses a DB connection
2) enable config, add XML config, export the connection string, disable config
3) edit config file, change connection string
4) open package from Windows Explorer (double click)
5) add config file created in step 3
All of that works fine, but there are times when it doesn't. I think it depends on the editor used in step 3. If I use textpad and "pretty format" the XML (from the huge one-line built from within Visual Studio), then sometimes the changes aren't picked up. I can tell this because the "default" server in development is not accessable in production. When we "reformatted" the XML back to one line, the correct server was connected to.
I have no idea what the problem with the formatted XML was. I thought it was CRLF vs LF, but I have at least one config that formatted that way and it works fine. My current thought is character encoding when using TextPad.
My biggest problem is that DTEXECUI doesn't tell you that the config file isn't going to be used. It just ignores the "bad" config format and goes on its merry way using the information in the package itself. That really scares me.
Has anyone else seen this? What is the problem being introduced into the config file?
Thanks,
Frank

Hello all
I need to know the best way to work with databases (Sql Server) in my app.config.
I have an VB application that binds data from a SQL server (All Customers install these application and retrieve data via VPN). I use two databases for each customer. The first DB has some commun tables/data and the second one is its ID (Until now I setup manually the connections because we don't have more that 10 Customers but we need improve that for next year). I know that a connection string is created in the app.config file .
I don't know if it is possible from this way or if there is another way to do it.... but the goal is:
1. Customer is logged in the application -User Name, ID, Password
2. Customer retrieve a database with commun data and his own database (that is his ID). (From the app.config???) How can I setup my app.config in order that every customer retrieve his database automatically when it is logged?
Thaks, I don't know if it's clear but I didn't find another way to explain my trouble

Can the DB CommandTimeout property for SQL be added in web.config for a project globally? Currently, I am changing the property before each call, but if I can add a value in web.config that would make things more efficient.

I think I've read to many post and now I'm confused on what the exact syntax should be and where in the web config file for connecting to my remote database on the web. I have a SQL Server 2005 database on the web. It was imported by the host from the members ID and passwords database created in Express 2005 from the ASP.Net configuration
Here's the portion of the config file:
<configuration>
<appSettings/>
<connectionStrings/>
<system.web>
Here is the sample connection string my host provided:
DRIVER={SQL Server};SERVER=sqlserver5.loosefoot.com;UID=myadmin;PWD=Your Password;database=eldersmembers
Would someone show me exactly what and where the syntax for the connection string goes?
Thanks in advance

Hi all,
I'm having a frustrating time connection to SQL 2000 from the web.config. I'm getting the following error
Here is my config

This is the error i get
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: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
Any thoughts?

I've setup sql mirroring which works fine. my problem is that when the mirror takes over from the partner that means the IP address of the SQL server has changed which is coded into the web.config file.
How can I get my web.conig file to recognise 2 sql servers that are being mirrored so it can see whichever one is the principal.
Currently, when the mirror takes over my web application does not work as the IP address of the sql server has changed.
Does anyone know the fix for this?

I'm having timeout issues with a few stored procedures which do calculations and take a while to return data (like 2-3 minutes).
I'm getting timeouts when I try to run them in my asp.net page.
From my research it seems that I need to increase the Command Timeout setting. I'm storing my connection string in my web.config file and I can't seeem to get the syntax correct for increasing the command timeout setting.
Can someone show my how it's done.
My connection string (from web.config):
<appSettings>
<add key="DataGold" value="server=localhost;uid=datauser;pwd=qu3ry;database=DataGold" />

I'm new in the DBA position recently aquired, and I'm having a few issues with MSSQL configuration and administration.
1. I have created a two maintenance plans, one for system databases and another one for user databases, this plans include things such as, Integrity Checks, Optimizations and DB Backups, however the Integrity Checks fail with the error that the DB's must be in single user mode, how can I go about to make this and what are the implications of doing so?
2. There's been a few reports of MSSQL server compromises through UDP port 1433, so I closed it at firewall level, only TCP 1433 is going through, do I really need UDP 1433?
