How to connect?

Hi All,
I'd like to connect to a SQL Server 2000 instance which listens to not the
default 1433 port. Can anyone help me with how to register the server in EM
and how to connect to the server with QA?
Thanks.

Hello,
1 option:- Create a client Alias using Client Network Utility defining the
correct PORT and then use the Alias to register and use in Query Analyzer
2 option: While connecting give IPADDRESS,Port number in the server window.
(Eg: 10.222.1.100,1522)
Thanks

How to connect, after all ?

Hi All,

i have a problem, so lets to it.

Situation:

I have a COM that connects to SQL2K with that string connection:
"Provider=SQLOLEDB;Persist Security Info = False;DATABASE=MyDatabase;SERVER=MyServer;User Id=myuser;Password=123456;"

that works fine, but we have a problem: the person that compiles de DLL knows user and password, so we decided to change the way the application connects to SQL, and start using AppRoles.

Things we did:
1-I created an approle and gave the permissions to the role.

2-I grant connect permission to domain\user1, only connect, that will be used when registering the COM as domain\user responsible to be used to stablish the connection.

3-Developers changed string connection to: "Provider='SQLOLEDB';Data Source='MyServer';Initial Catalog='Mydatabase';Integrated Security='SSPI';"

New behavior:

The connection goes OK, but the way we did before, when traced with profiler, the sp_reset_connection has been invoked by sqlserver, and with the knew connect string was no more executed.

Another problem is that when the COM is called in a second time, the previous connection is logged out and it stops, not connecting again.

Any ideas ??

thanks a lot.

Leandro.What's the source code of sp_reset_connection ( are you sure this is a standard MS sp)|||i dont know, sp_reset_connection is invoked by sqlserver that controls pooling connection.

the fact is that with the string connection used before the sp_reset... has been invoked, and with the new configuration was no more.

we setup a domain\user responsible to the COM and granted connect permission to it and the code of the COM is executing sp_setapprole.

the first time the COM is called it works fine, but the second time the sp_reset_connection is not invoked, and yhe connection is logged out.

the third time the COM is invoked all works fine again, when i trace the connection the select runs OK, ando so on.

any ideas ?|||I would try adding "Persist Security Info = False;" back into your connection string

How to connect with SQL database?

I am new learner of ASP.NET and coding in C#.I am not able to connect the SQL database.I have written the code for connection of database but to write the connection string web.config file is neccessary which is not apearing in my application. Please help me .Here is code I have written.

string sCon =ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ConnectionString"].ToString();

SqlConnection oCon =new SqlConnection(sCon);

try

{

oCon.Open();

string sQuery ="Select Offering1,Offering2,Offering3 from Offering";SqlCommand oCmd =new SqlCommand(sQuery, oCon);

oCmd.ExecuteNonQuery();

DataSet oDs =newDataSet();

SqlDataAdapter oDa =new SqlDataAdapter(oCmd);

oDa.Fill(oDs);

DataList1.DataSource = oDs;

DataList1.DataBind();

}

catch (Exception ex)

{

ex.ToString();

}

What kind of error are you getting?

Can you post a copy of the connectionString settings from your web.config?

|||

Hii Jimmy,

Actually I do not see the web.config file in my solution explorer. So that I am unable to write the connection string. Can you please tell me why it is so ?

|||

Looks like you may have started with the empty web site template. When you try to start/debug the application, does it not automatically add a web.config for you?

Well, you can manually add one. Right click on your web site and select ADD NEW ITEM then select the WEB CONFIGURATION FILE

|||

Hey thanks,

As there are errors because I have not added the connection string into the web.cofig file it is not able to debug the file.Right now I have added web.config manually.

What the connection string format to add to web.config?

<addname="ConnectionString"connectionString="Server=(local)\SQLEXPRESS;Integrated Security=True;Database=Knowledgebase;Persist Security Info=True"/>

is it right?

Now the error coming is "The type or namespace name 'SqlConnection' could not be found" when I try to debug my default.aspx.

|||

Bluestar123:
Now the error coming is "The type or namespace name 'SqlConnection' could not be found" when I try to debug my default.aspx.

That would because you did not import the namespace

Add this to the top of your code behind for your default.aspx

using System.Data.SqlClient;

|||

The connection string can look something like this

"Data Source= xxx ;Initial Catalog=xxx; uid=xxx ;pwd=xxx"

where datasource is your database server; could be your machine name or I.P. address, Initial Catalog is the database name, UID is the login name, PWD is the login name's password

If your SQL Server is set up for windows authentication then you can do replace the UID and PWS with "Integrated Security=True"

Have a look at this link for connection string examples

http://connectionstrings.com/?carrier=sqlserver2005

|||

Hi Jimmy,

Now I have added using System.Data.SqlClient to my default.aspx.cs and that error has gone thanks for the same.

I am still not able to fetch the data to my datalist from database, is still there any problem with my connection string? in my web.cofig I have used windows authentication.

<addname="ConnectionString"connectionString="Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=Knowledgebase;Integrated Security=True"/>

Please help ..........

|||

Bluestar123:
<addname="ConnectionString"connectionString="Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;Initial Catalog=Knowledgebase;Integrated Security=True"/>

for the connection string, the data source should be [your machine name]\SQLEXPRESS assuming SQLEXPRESS is the server instance name

update your code to this and give it a go

string sCon = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings["ConnectionString"].ToString();
SqlConnection oCon =new SqlConnection(sCon);try
{
string sQuery ="Select Offering1,Offering2,Offering3 from Offering";
 SqlCommand oCmd =new SqlCommand(sQuery, oCon);
 DataSet oDs =new DataSet();
 SqlDataAdapter oDa =new SqlDataAdapter(oCmd);
 oDa.Fill(oDs);
 DataList1.DataSource = oDs;
 DataList1.DataBind();
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
 ex.ToString();
}

Add some break points and step through the code, if there any exceptions, take not of the exception message.

|||

I have added break points at Select command and line below that ,control goes there when I debug the default.aspx and then it display the page without fetching thedata from database.So i have added the break point to the line

DataSet oDs=new DataSet();

at this line control donot go and directly display the page without showing the data from the database.

|||

So when you put a break point at the DataSet oDs=new DataSet(); and when you step over it F10, it does not proceed to the next line? Then that means an exception was raised and it should be caught in your catch. So put a break point in your catch statement, so you can check the exception being thrown if there is one at all and give us the error message

|||oops! Column name I had given was wrong .......Its OfferingName. I made that change but now when I put brk point at

DataList1.DataSource = oDs;

after pressing F10 control goes to next line i. e.

DataList1.DataBind();

but data from database is not getting displayed on the page though the page has been displayed......

oh no whats the problem ?am I doing any mistake again?

Follwing output I got in Output window

Warning: Cannot debug script code. Script debugging is disabled for the application you are debugging. Please uncheck the 'Disable script debugging' option on the Internet Options dialog box (Advanced page) for Internet Explorer and restart the process.

The program '[3368] WebDev.WebServer.EXE: Managed' has exited with code 0 (0x0).

|||

Well the obviously question is have you tried executing the SQL statement against your database to make sure it does return data?

after you have stepped over this line of code oDa.Fill(oDs); check it the dataset has returned a datatable with datarows.

|||

No I didnt,how can I check it ?I am using Microsoft SQL server management Studio. When go to line

oDa.Fill(oDs);

it did not return the table contents......

I tried to execute the query by using Execute SQL but not able to execute ,How to do?

Did you get fed up of my questions Jimmy??

|||

Bluestar123:
Did you get fed up of my questions Jimmy??

Not at all, just trying my best to understand your problem which is at times a little hard.

Lets try execute you select statement first in SQL Server Management Studio.

Log onto your database, and select the NEW QUERY option.

Now paste your SQL statement into this window , "Select Offering1,Offering2,Offering3 from Offering" and click execute

Does it return any results?

How to connect via ODBC

Hi,

I would like to connect in SqlServer 2005 via ODBC SQLServer, how are the steps?

1 - How can I connect ODBC?

1.1 - I need SqlServer 2005 name - ok

1.2 - Which option should I take in order to login? Windows NT authentication or Sql Server authentication?

Which one is the best option?

Cheers,

Alessandro

1.2 - Which option should I take in order to login? Windows NT authentication or Sql Server authentication?

That depends - Windows authentication is almost always better but if you cannot use it then SQL Server authentication is fine as long as you have it enabled on the server and you have created a login on the server. With Windows authentication you can easily use existing Windows domains, groups and users, you don't have to create everything on the server and use extra login names and passwords.

What type of application are you using to connect to SQL Server? ODBC should be your last choice, rather use OLE DB or the .NET data provider if you can.

|||

Hi,

- I picked windows authentication. I can not use OLE DB from my application.

I've created one windows user and created one login, but I still getting "Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection". I changed Surface Area configuration and Configuration Manager as well. I heard that I nedd to enable mix mode option, how can I do this?

thanks

|||

You haven't told me anything about your application or why you can't use OLE DB, so I'm guessing - but it sounds like you cannot use Windows authentication. In SQL Server Management Studio, right click your server and select Properties. Select the Security page, and on that page select the SQL Server and Windows Authentication mode radio button.

Then add a SQL Server login, and use that login and password in your connection string.

How to connect using C#

I'm trying to connect to a MS SQL Server using ASP.NET / C#. I've
already got some VB code that works but I'm unable to translate it to
working C# code. Can anyone help me out?

Working VB code:

Dim Conn
Conn = CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
Const ConnectionString = "DSN=dsn_name;database=database_name"
Conn.Open(ConnectionString, "user_name", "password")

Not working C# code:

string ConnectionString = "Initial Catalog=database_name;" +
"Data Source=dsn_name;" +
"User ID=user_name;" +
"Password=password;" +
"Integrated Security=SSPI;";

SqlConnection Connection = new SqlConnection(ConnectionString);
Connection.Open();
Connection.Close();Use exactly the same connection string form C# as for VB. If it works
in one, it'll work in the other.

Specifically, if you are using SSPI, you don't need to specify uid and
pw, and vice-versa.|||AHM (ingen@.spam.tak) writes:

If you help us to help you. Don't just post:

Tell us in what way it is not working. Do you get an error message?
Do you get unexpected results? Does the light go out?

How to connect two SQL Server using private network.

I have two SQL Servers physically sitting next to each other. These servers
have Public IPs as 10.10.49.123 and 10.10.49.124. These two servers are also
connected through Cross Over Cables for Private Network and private non
routed IPs are 192.168.1.2 and 192.168.1.3. I have SQL Serever Transactional
Replication set up on it and I want to use private network for transferring
data between these two servers. Private network is on 2 Gigabit switch. Non
replication traffic can come vis normal way as it coming currently. Is it
possbile to implement this kind of setup or not? If so, how? Any help or
whitepaper on it will be highly appreciated.

Just put entries in the hosts file of each server so when Server 1 goes to
connect to Server 2, its name resolves to 192.168.1.2 and not 10.10.49.123.
David|||I tried this and this didnt work. Why is it that from command prompt on
Server 1, I can ping Server 2's private IP address and yet when I add them
into Host File and then try, it fails.
Anything else that I need to do other than adding entries into Host file?
This is what I did so far.

It still shows 10.10.49.124. When I try to conenct to SQL Server using
private IP address in Query Analyzer, I get error saying: Unable to connect

Is it cached or am I missing something.

regardless, assuming your network is setup correctly.
Are you even able to ping the server by IP address? If not then your
network is not set up correctly.
Are you running query analyzer on the server, or on a client that is not
part of the private network?

How to connect two differect instances of SQL SERVER

How to connect two differect instances of SQL SERVER on LEN or WAN for Data Migration.MSDN (http://msdn.microsoft.com/sql)
and read about linked servers, DTS, replication...|||Each instance of SQL Server 2000 listens on a unique set of network addresses so that applications can connect to different instances. SQL Server 2000 clients do not need any specific configuration to connect to an instance of SQL Server 2000.

The SQL Server 2000 client components query a computer running one or more instances of SQL Server to determine the Net-Libraries and network addresses for each instance. The client components then choose a supported Net-Library and address for the connection automatically, without requiring any configuration work on the client.

The only information the application must supply is the computer name and instance name.

How to connect two databases on alocal server in SQL

Hello , This is Vidya newly joined to this group.
I want some help .... Its really urgent

In my project I want to connect to two databases on alocal server in SQL ? Is there any SQL query to connect two databases ?

Situation is=>
There are two Databases Db1, Db2. I want to take data from tables of Db1 to data of tables of Db2 and vice versa.I want simple SQL query without any scripting language or VB statements. Its very urgent Please help me in that.If the two databases are on the same server you can reference either one in the other by using the fully qualified object name: [database].[owner].[object]|||Thank You Sir, For your quiock reply. I have tried it but still I am unable to connect.

Sir can we have '-' (Hyphen Character) for our database name? like a_com_-_b, Is It a valid name...

Thank You|||Yes, database names can contain hyphens. But I would not recommend it for reasons of style.

Post the code you are trying that is not working. You should be able to do something like:
Use Database1
go

select Table1.Column1,
Table2.Column2
from Table1
inner join Database2.dbo.Table2 as Table2 on Table1.pkey = Table2.pkey

How to connect to the SQl server EXPRESS using 'ODBC Data Source A

Hi All,
Recently I have installed SQl server express edition. I was able to connect
to the SQL server from my .NET project using connection parameter like:
Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=C:\Documents and Settings\Raju\My
Documents\Sanjib SQL DBs\IBuyAdventure\IBuyAdventure.mdf;Integrated
Security=True;Connect Timeout=30;User Instance=True
Now I need to connect to the same SQL server from 'ODBC Data Source
Aministrator' wizard, that I am unable to do. The wizard is asking me (for
system DSn and File DSN) for SQL server name (I do no know what to give, is
it (local) or something) and how to login authenticate (with windows
authentication or something). Now if I goto Services/SQl Server (SQLEXPRESS)
, click LogOn I see that 'Local System Account' is checked. Pls tell me how
to connect to this SQl server using System DSN connection wizard.
By the way I am the administrator of this machine where I have instlled the
SQl server...
Thanks in advance,

do not think he can connect to User Instance through ODBC DSN Wizard (why
use ODBC anyway?). I am not should if it is possible to connect to SQL
Server Express' User Instance through OdbcConnection object in
System.Data.Odbc namespace, but it is certain your sample code will not.

Pipe name for the instance but if you haven't already started the user
instance with a managed code connection, ODBC won't start it. If your main
application is using ODBC, I would recommend attaching the database to the
main instance so it is always running and the ODBC connection can find it.
There is more information on named instances and how to connect to them
here:

If you HAVE to access the database on SQL Server Express via something other
than ADO.NET2.0's System.Data SqlClient namespace, why use User Instannce?
The whole point of using user instance is to limit the database setup/access
within current user's privilidge of access to the computer. If a user has to
use ODBC DSN Wizard, it may well requires the user has a bit more privilidge
that usual. Also, an user instance is not available to other user even the
other user uses the same computer.

The whole point came like this. I am trying to install a SQl server driven
3rd party application and after the applications gets installed the database
installation wizard appears and tht wizard asks me to connect to the SQL
server using ODBC DSN, so I need to know the parameters for connecting to the
SQL server, which I don't know it seems, b'case while installing SQL server
2005 it never asked me for a server name/login password. And now it is
running using the 'Local System Account' i.e. Local Admin account that is me.
May be my SQL server 2005 is using user instance, although I am not sure.
The fact that I am not that much knowlegeble in SQL severs, much worked in
microsoft programming languages, and SQl server for me is a database server
tht always worked.
I will try from the URL provided by Roger and let u know...
Thanks,
Sanjib

install an user instance (I am not sure). However, form your first post,
according to the ConnectionString, you are trying to use an User Instance.
User Instance of SQL Server Express is a special installation of SQL Server
Express. It seems you need a bit more study on what an user instance is, so
that you can tell if your intallation is an user instance or not, and
whether you need an user instance or not. IMO, SQL Server Express's user
instance does not go with ODBC.

unrelated elements in your posting. First you were able to use ADO.Net in
Visual Studio to create a database. This database was a user instance which
is why this came up in our answers. On a completely unrelated note you now
want to install a third party application that uses ODBC to connect to the
database.
Go into the Windows Control Panel and select Administrative Tools. One of
the tools is ODBC data sources. Select the System DSN or User DSN as
required for your application and click ADD. Select the SQL Native Client
Driver. Fill in a name which you get to choose (probably the application is
looking for a particular name), leave the description blank and put
.\SQLExpress in the server field. Select the defaults for the rest unless
you already know the database name you want to make your default database.
If not, the default will be "master".

Roger's trick to connect to the SQL server worked for me, I was able to use

Now I will be happy if this SQL server let me create a user (for this SQL

possible, pls let me know...
By the time I have started reading some materials for SQL server. ANother

How to connect to the SQl server EXPRESS using 'ODBC Data Source A

How to connect to the June Katmai CTP?

Hi all,

I'm new to the Katmai SQL Server. I have just installed the June CTP x64 developer edition on a Win2003 Server AMD x64 bit. I installed everything. The install went fine.

My question:

How do I connect to the Katmai? There where no Management Studio in the install package.

The SQL Server 2005 Management Studio will not connect. It says that it can only connect to SQL 2000 or SQL 2005.

Best regards,

Lars-Inge

Hm, I installed 32-bit. Could it be that tools are in the 32-bit distribution? (Tools are 32-bit anyway.) Also, look for a setup in the Tools directory if there is one. > The SQL Server 2005 Management Studio will not connect. It says that it > can only connect to SQL 2000 or SQL 2005. SQLCMD and OSQL works.

I see only configuration tools.

How to connect to sql server2005 from java using JDBC driver

Hi, everyone:
I need to connect my java app to sql server 2005 using JDBC driver, but I don't know how to do.
Thanks for your help.
AdolfoWe currently have a beta2 driver availalbe for this now:

http://www.microsoft.com/sql/downloads/2005/jdbc.mspx

To connect:

Class.forName("com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver");
Connection conn = DriverManager.getConnection("jdbc:sqlserver://mysqlserver;user=myuser;password=mypassword;databaseName=mydataBase;");

|||

Ok. happen that I have installed the sqlserver 2005 beta 2, using windows authentication, so it needs a name instance to get access. When I use the JDBC driver I can't connect using that name instance.

regards,

Adolfo

|||The beta version of windows authentication has some known issues -- did you try connection to the named instance with SQL Server authentication?
