Steps To Create A Linked Server
May 7, 2007
hi,
what are the steps to create a linked server, I have tried unsuccesfully:
The scenario is the following:
From server A I want to be able to execute a select statement to a table in server B like
select * from [server B].myRemoteDb.dbo.myremTable
I am administrator of server A but not of server B. I tried the
sp_addlinkedserver syntax but have not been succesful, so I would be grateful if somebody could just list the steps necessary to link Server B from Server A,
thank you

Hi, Apologies in advance if you get confused by reading this.... I am trying to create an additional step in the Create Wizard User Control that is provided by ASP.net. The additional step that I want to add will come after a user will create their username, password, email etc. The information which I want to save in the extra step are details such as firstname, lastname, address, height, weight etc. (I am creating an online weight management system for dieticians).When I run through the application, the username, password etc save perfectly to the database, but nothing happens with the other "personal information". There are no errors thrown so I don't know where the problem is coming from.I have included the code below as I have it:The code behind the Register.aspx file is as follows: <asp:SqlDataSource ID="InsertExtraInfo" runat="server" ConnectionString="<%$ ConnectionStrings:ASPNETDBConnectionString1 %>" InsertCommand="INSERT INTO [aspnet_UserInformation] ([first_name], [surname], [address1], [address2], [city], [country], [number], [height], [weight]) VALUES (@txtFirstName, @txtSurname, @txtAddress1, @txtAddress2, @txtCity, @txtCountry, @txtNumber, @txtHeight, @txtWeight)" ProviderName="<%$ ConnectionStrings:ASPNETDBConnectionString1.ProviderName %>"> <InsertParameters> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtFirstName" Type="String" ControlID="txtFirstName" PropertyName="Text" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtSurname" Type="String" ControlID="txtSurname" PropertyName="Text" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtAddress1" Type="String" ControlID="txtAddress1" PropertyName="Text" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtAddress2" Type="String" ControlID="txtAddress2" PropertyName="Text" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtCity" Type="String" ControlID="txtCity" PropertyName="Text" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtCountry" Type="String" ControlID="txtCountry" PropertyName="Text" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtNumber" Type="String" ControlID="txtNumber" PropertyName="Text" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtHeight" Type="String" ControlID="txtHeight" PropertyName="Text" /> <asp:ControlParameter Name="txtWeight" Type="String" ControlID="txtWeight" PropertyName="Text" /> </InsertParameters> </asp:SqlDataSource>
Then the code I have behind the Register.aspx.cs page is: protected void CreateUserWizard1_CreatedUser(object sender, EventArgs e) { TextBox UserName = (TextBox)CreateUserWizard1.FindControl("UserName"); SqlDataSource DataSource = (SqlDataSource)CreateUserWizard1.FindControl("InsertExtraInfo"); MembershipUser User = Membership.GetUser(UserName.Text); //object UserGUID = User.ProviderUserKey; DataSource.InsertParameters.Add("UserId", UserGUID.ToString()); DataSource.Insert(); } I know there is a problem with the code on the aspx.cs page but I cant figure it out. I need the username / password information to relate to the personal details information. I know I have to create a foreign key in the asp_UserInformation table that will link to the username in the asp_Membership (where all the username / password info is stored) Any help will do, I'm almost in tears here!!!The Spud

I watched the How do I video "Create a Full-Featured Customer Login Portal" several times, and have compared my code to the downloaded VB code. I seem to be missing something.
I am trying to replicate what he does in the video, where he uses the login name to query another database and display the matching data. In the video he starts by using a querystring (page.aspx?userID=name) before creating a login page.. My program works with this method. However, later he creates the login page, and the system seems to automatically link the user database with the northwind database and give results without the querystring. There is no indication of how this is done. When I examined the downloaded code, he actually uses a session variable in the Page_Load event on the orders page. There is no explanation of this either, just a quick "I'll paste this from the clipboard."
I have compared my code line by line, and it matches exactly. I can only guess that there is a missing step where a relationship is established between the ASPNETDB.mdf file and the northwind.mdf file. Can anyone explain this to me? Thank you.
My goal is to have a user log in, and the site automatically query the second database for that users statistics, and display them.

I am trying to create a linked server in Management Studio Exoress. In the Objext Explorer, I open Server Objexts and the right-click on Linked Servers and select New Linked Server. I then get an error that says "Cannot show the requested dialog. Additional information: Cannot find table 0. (System Data). The full text of the error is as follows:

I am running XP SP2 and SSE SP2. One other item is that the providers folder is empty. I checked another box and there are several providers listed in that installation. It looks like when the SSE is installed, the providers are not being created. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling and am having the same problem. Is this a installation bug or is there a conflict with another program? I also re-downloaded the installation files in case there was a problem with that, but it didn't solve the issue either.
Thanks for any help,

Hi,
I'm using a couple of linked servers.
I want to create a stored procedure on all of the linked servers in a database with a name which exists on all of the linked servers.
For executing SQL on all of the linked servers I'm using:
declare @x int
declare @dbname varchar(500)
declare @SQL nvarchar(600)
set @x = 1
create table #databases (ID int IDENTITY,name varchar(500))
insert #databases select instancelongname from instances
while @x <= (select max(id) from #databases)
begin
select @dbname = name from #databases where id = @x
select @SQL='blabla bla bla create PROCEDURE [dbo].[usp_xxxx]'
execute @SQL
set @x = @x + 1
end
drop table #databases
Is it possible to use a ‘create procedure’ in this construction?
Can anybody give me some help how to create a proper syntax for it?
Any help is kindly appreciated!

such that linktompp is the linked server name
testmpp is the catalog name
tasks is the table name i need to select data from
it shows an error that says

I'm using sql server 2005 and exchange 2003. End result is I want to upload email attachments to a table in sql. No one seems to have any idea how do do this except with .net, which i know nothing about so not really an option for me. I found this bit of info with some extensive web searching. Can anyone help fill in the blanks? I can't get the linked server to work yet.

Hi all,
I have a problem when i try to create a linked server to a MsAccess Db. That's what i do:
--- linked server drop (in case it already exist)
sp_dropserver 'XXXXX', 'droplogins'
--- linked server creation
sp_addlinkedserver XXXXX, 'Jet 4.0','Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0', ' serverfolderdb1.mdb'
--- login creation
sp_addlinkedsrvlogin XXXXX, FALSE, NULL, Admin, NULL
--- fill tables
sp_tables_ex XXXXX
File Db1.mdb is located on a partition (D) of the server where Sql is installed.
On login creation i get the following error :
Error -2147217900 Error during decryption. (15466) Source: Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server.
(This is not the real error message, it has been translated)
Some ideas?

Hi all,
I´m trying to create a linked server to a Sybase database (.db file) so i can create some reports in sql 2005 (with Reporting Services and Report Designer). After reading all articles I did the following.
1) Installe Adaptive Server Anyhwere (Interactive Sql) 9.0.2 on the server.
2) Created a USER DSN to the Db file (Control Panel - odbc connections) and it works fine: The Settings for the ODBC are:
ODBC Tab
Data Source Name: dbNOM
Login Tab
Supply userID and Password: (selected)
User ID: DBA
Password: SQL
Database Tab
Server Name: dbNOM
StartLine: C:Program FilesSybaseSQL Anywhere 9win32dbeng9.exe
Database Name: (blank)
Database File: c:Project FolderDataBase.db
As I said, when i go for "test connection", works fine.
3) Sql Management Studio - Object Explorer - Server Objects - New Linked Server, with settings as following:
General
Linked Server: lkDbNom
Server Type: Other Data Source
Provider: Sybase Adaptive Server Anywhere Provider 9.0
Product Name: Sybase
Product Name: dbNom (the dsn name, right?)
Security
Be made using this security context.- Remote Login: DBA; Password: SQL (same as DSN)
All other settings, as default, click in OK and shows no errors (aparently it creates the linked server successfully). But when i try to query the linked server with:
SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY ('SYBASE', 'SELECT * FROM nom_Robot')
And i get the following message:
Msg 102, Level 15, State 1, Line 1
Incorrect syntax near 'SYBASE'.
Even better, if i go to the Object Explorer - Server Objects, i test the connection and it´s ok, but when i try to retrieve the catalog an error displays:
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio
------------------------------
Failed to retrieve data for this request. (Microsoft.SqlServer.SmoEnum)
For help, click: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?ProdName=Microsoft+SQL+Server&LinkId=20476
------------------------------
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
An exception occurred while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch. (Microsoft.SqlServer.ConnectionInfo)
------------------------------
The OLE DB provider "ASAProv.90" for linked server "SYBASE" reported an error. Access denied.
Cannot obtain the required interface ("IID_IDBSchemaRowset") from OLE DB provider "ASAProv.90" for linked server "SYBASE". (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 7399)
For help, click: http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?ProdName=Microsoft+SQL+Server&ProdVer=09.00.3054&EvtSrc=MSSQLServer&EvtID=7399&LinkId=20476
So, i really don´t understand what is missing in my linked server, i tried with MDASQL (OLEDB for ODBC) but it doesn´t even completes to create the linked server.
The database file is ok because, because in another server (one that doesn´t have SQL, only visual studio) i did the following:
1) Installe Adaptive Server Anyhwere (Interactive Sql) 9.0.2 on the server.
2) Created a DSN to the Db file, and it works fine. (copied the db file, so is local, no remote access), exactly the same setting as i did on the sql 2005 server.
3) Created a connection in visual studio 2008 (server explorer - data connections), i can retrieve sdata...but of course the provider is .NET Framework Data Provider for ODBC and i cannot use the same connection string.
Any ideas?
P.S.

I have 2 instances of server A. A is the primary instance and A1 is the logical instance. Instance A1 has a linked server to server B. When I try to create a linked server from the primary instance A to server B, I get the error message
Error 15028: The server 'B' already exists.
When I run a select of master..sysservers on the primary instance, A, I see all linked servers for A and A1. When I select off of A1 I only see the instances for A1.
If I try to access server B from the primary instance A, I receive the following message:
Server: Msg 7411, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Server 'B' is not configured for DATA ACCESS.
(1) Why does sysservers on the primary instance, A, show instances for A and A1 and not just the ones for A?
(2) Why can't I create the linked server 'B' on instance 'A'?
Thanks, Dave

Hello
I have a local SQL2005 server with a linked SQL2000 server. I would like to know how to create a temporary table in the remote server in such a way that I can make an inner join as follows; my idea is to optimized a distributed query by doing so:
create table #myRemoteTempTable
insert into #myRemoteTempTable
select * from myLocalTable
update myRemoteTable
set
Value=#myRemoteTempTable.Value
from myRemoteTable
inner join #myRemoteTempTable on #myRemoteTempTable.ID=myRemoteTable.ID

Hi,
I would like to join two tables: one on a local server which I have admin access to and another server which I only have read access. The local table is very small, but the remote table is very large.
If I look at Query Analyzer's execution plan, it appears that the join will be done locally (i.e. the entire table is transferred from the remote server and then joined to my local table). Is there a way to create a temp table using linked servers, transfer my small local table to the remote server and then perform the join on the remote server? In the past, I have been able to use openquery to restrict the data to a small subset that is transferred but the local table is a little too large for that.
I appreciate any advice / guidance anyone can offer me!

System: Win 2003, SQL Server 2005, Using an AD win account that is not a member of the Admin group on the server.
Error message from Management Studio query window:
Msg 7302, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
Cannot create an instance of OLE DB provider "IBMDADB2" for linked server "Sname".
Event messages associated with this error:
App Event ID: 19036
The OLE DB initialization service failed to load. Reinstall Microsoft Data Access Components. If the problem persists, contact product support for the OLEDB provider.
Sys Event ID: 10016
The application-specific permission settings do not grant Local Activation permission for the COM Server application with CLSID {2206CDB0-19C1-11D1-89E0-00C04FD7A829}
to the user domainuser SID (S-1-5-21-126051702-1034962659-2130403006-7826). This security permission can be modified using the Component Services administrative tool.
I€™m getting this error message when trying to run an openquery statement through a linked server to DB2. (SELECT * FROM OPENQUERY(Sname, 'SELECT * FROM tablename€™))
The linked server has a remote login and password that it uses to connect to DB2.
I found this from another post on how to fix this error:
Expand Component Services - Computers - My Computer - DCOM Config Select MSDAINITIALIZE Right Click properties then security
Under Security - Launch Permission: enable Local Launch and Local Activation for your SQL Service account
Under Security - Access permissions: Allow System: Local Access and Remote Access.
After completing these steps I still get the error message but the events are no longer generated. I€™ve also tried different variations of these steps. The only way I can get this to work is to either make the AD user a member of the Admin group on the server or by putting in a user account that has admin rights to the server in the MSDAINITIALIZE properties €“ Identity Tab €“ Run this App as this User.
Can someone please tell me the steps that I€™m missing?

I have a linked server setup in dev environment which is pointing to ORACLE server of a third-party. I m on  sql server 2008 r2 and  using BIDS 2008 for building an SSIS package which would pull data from oracle and do a look up in SQL server table to get a final  extract. Now the query which pulls data from a single table from linked server is like the one below
select * from [oracle linked server ]..dbo.tablename a
left join  mySQLSERVERtable b
on a.id=b.idÂ
Note:I can execute this query on SSMS as  the linked server is setup -[oracle linked server ] and I have sql  oledb connection manager for dev environment already configured in my ssis package .
My questions are do I need to create a SSIS CONNECTION manager specifically for linked server in my ssis package ?
Are there any best practices which we follow when using linked servers in this context ? I am thinking will the join suffer performance issue and what kind of exceptions I need to write when the linked server connection is broken.

I just installed a SQL Server 2005 Express SP2 instance on a server with an existing SQL Server 2000 SP3 installation. (I need SQL Server 2005's INSERT from an EXEC capability). It's working great now except for one thing: I can't link any other SQL servers! I've already successfully added and queried a linked Oracle server, but attempting to add a linked SQL server gives me the following error, no matter which SQL provider I try to use:
Code Snippet
"The linked server has been created but failed a connection test. Do you want to keep the linked server?"
Additional information:
--> An exception occured while executing a Transact-SQL statement or batch (Microsoft.SqlServer.Express.ConnectionInfo)
--> Cannot create an instance of OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "SERVERNAME". (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 7302)
The technical details reveal the error source as "sp_testlinkedserver".
I've scoured the net and premier support for advice on this problem, but the little I found wasn't helpful. I've tried reinstalling the SQL Native Client, but it didn't help. I've tried uninstalling SQL Server 2005 Express completely (including management studio and native client), rebooting, and reinstalling everything, with no luck. The server (obviously) does not have a firewall enabled. I've tried stopping the SQL 2000 Server installed on the system, no help. If I create a test .UDL file on the system, pointing to any of the SQL servers I'm trying to link, clicking the "Test Connection" button returns successful. I'm also able to connect to and query the servers directly from the SQL 2005 Express Management Studio. I just can't add them as linked servers.
The server is running Windows 2003 SP1, SQL Server 2000 SP3, and SQL Server 2005 Express SP2 (the default "SQLExpress" named instance). I've tried setting up SQL 2005 Express to run under the network service account and under a domain account used by the other SQL 2000 servers.
From other SQL 2000 servers, I can connect and link to the SQL Server 2005 Express instance successfully. I can also successfully add linked SQL servers in SQL Server 2000 instance installed on the same server. Only adding linked SQL servers in 2005 Express seems to be broken.
Anyone have any other suggestions? I'm totally baffled. Thank you so much for any helpful advice.

I have a problem with a SQL Server (2000) Agent Job that has 3 steps that don't produce the desired outcome when invoked in total but will produce the desired outcome if the first step is broken up from the last two steps.
1) The first step uses third party software to generate PDFs to a folder.
2) The second step executes the following command to ftp the PDFs to a folder and move these PDFs to a backup folder:
EXEC master..xp_cmdshell 'm: & cd C:Program Filesfoldername1 AutoGeneral_Ftp & dir & FTP -n -s:C:Progra~1foldername1AutoGeneral_FTPupload_G eneral.ibc www.someorgname.org & move /Y
\networkdriveArchiveGeneral*.pdf \networkdriveArchiveackupsGeneral'
3) The third step determines if any files remain in the folder that contained the PDFs. If files are still in the folder then the FTP and move step (step 2) did not work and a stored procedure is invoked to send an email to the appropriate administrator
DECLARE @result int
EXEC @result = master..xp_cmdshell 'Dir "\networkdriveArchiveGeneral*.pdf" | find /i "file"'
IF @result = 0
exec ibc_sp_Email_Report_Failure 'FTP General Report'
When I invoke this job from Enterprise Manager and view the job history, it says that all steps executed successfully (which I understand may be the case even if the files were not FTPed or moved since the command can still return a code indicating success even though it didn't do what I expected.) In fact, the PDF is generated and written to \networkdriveArchiveGeneral
eportname.pdf. Steps 2 and 3 do not do what I expect. The PDFs still remain in the folder.
But when I start the job from step 2, the files are then moved. So, invoking the entire job does not move the files; invoking the job from step 2 moves the files.
Simple, you think, it is obvious that you didn't set up your job steps correctly in that step 1 does not go to the next step upon success. But I already checked that. Step 1 goes to the next step upon success.
Anybody ever come upon this problem? Any suggestions as to what else I can look at?
Thanks in advance,
Stedan

Hello,I have a SQL Server Agent job that has two steps. The job fails when I run it normally, with both steps. However, when I tried to troubleshoot, I ran each step individually, and both succeeded without errors. The first step runs an SSIS package under a proxy. The second is a T-SQL statement that simply runs a stored procedure. (There is no option for "Run As" for the T-SQL statement.) Again, each step runs fine when I run it under SQL Server Agent; also, the SSIS package runs fine when I run it from the file system, and the T-SQL statement completes successfully when I run it as a query.Does anyone have an idea why this is happening? Thanks!

We have several jobs that if any step fails, we need to continue with the next step. Due to this we have the both 'On Success Action' and 'On Failure Action' set to 'Go to the next step'. Our only issue is that when all the steps are done we still require the job itself to fail.
So my question is this, is there anyway the status of a job can be queried to determine if any of it's steps failed?
