DataSource Controls :: Connecting Sql Server / To Read The Windows User Account Name And Pass In The Connection
Apr 6, 2010
I would like to do a connection of asp.net page with Sql Server. Here I would like to read the Windows user account name and pass in the connection.The connection should be Windows authentication. IIS server and Sql server are installed in different machine. Here I am able to connect locally, When I am running from server, It takes windows account of Server.
so i can read local account(Where user is accessing the web application) and make windows authentication sql server connection.
I have a requirement I should connect to MS SQL server under IIS Application pool account from ASP.NET application where Windows Authentication is enabled. I cannot use user name and password in connection string.
ASP.NET application should use Entity Framework 4.0 to work with data.
Background: I use SQL server 2005 developer edition and visual studio 2008. Visual studio 2008 is running on a local machine with Vista business edition. SQL server is running on a remote server using Windows server 2003. Both computers are within the same domain.
Problem: First, I used the server explorer to connect to the SQL server. Everything works as desired. Then I write code to do the same thing. I keep getting the following error message:
A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 25 - Connection string is not valid)
However, I used the exactly identical connection string as the one used in the server explorer. So connection string should not be the problem. In addition, I tried the test code in MSDN, which tells whether my domainusername can flow the network. It turns out the user name is fine. I also went to the SQL server management studio and found the login for my computer is NVCWeihao while my computer login name is NVCweihao. I am wondering if this uppercase letter really affects the connection.
I have a web service in which i am making connection to the database to get data..now i want that the app pool account should be used to make the connection and not the current user's credentials..can somebody tell me step by step what changes do i need to make like setting impersonation=true etc.
I am trying to use Windows Authentication in my asp code. I have read / tried all answers on the web but couldnt my page to connect to sql. I m using classic asp.
My conn string looks like :
OCONN.OPEN ("PROVIDER=SQLOLEDB; DATA SOURCE myserver; INITIAL CATALOG=nrth; Integrated Security=SSPI; trusted_Connection=yes")
but I mgetting error
Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server
Login failed for user '(null)'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.error '80004005'
While working with LINQ to ENTITIES I see that there is only a way to use stored procedure that is returning one entity only, or a view that is a join of two entities.
But what if I need in ASPX page to get two tables that there is NO connection between them, no join can be done between them at all.
I have one Stored Procedure that return the two tables, but entities don't support this right now.
I can split them to two Stored Procedure and call each of them separately.
i have a project running good (database and application both are in same server). some days before we've decided to place databse (sql server 2000) in different server.we created new server with windows server 2003 and Sql server 2000; nothing else is installed in it.And then i register new server's sql in old server's sql server. it connected successfully. even i can fire a query to new server from old server.
Both new and old server having windows server 2003 and Sql server 2000.
Now the problem :I CAN NOT ACCESS NEW SERVER'S DATABASE FROM MY APPLICATION.
I need the syntax for a connection string in web.cong to connect to a SQL Server 2005 database that is on a VPN. I have an account on the DB that I can use....just don't know how to construct the connection string properly.
When ever I try to connect to server through Microsoft sql server management studio express then an error is generated saying that
Cannot connect to .//SQLEXPRESS

I am trying to host my website developed on ASP.NET framework 3.5. this website project is working perfectly on my system in local host enviorment. but when I try to upload it to hosting server ( mochahost.com-- hosting server) it is creating problem.

here's the connection string I am using:

i have an asp.net application that connects to a database. I've set up the connection string with the correct server name and username/password. This use to work perfectly. Suddenly for some reason, when i navigate to the site i get a Login failed for user admin. Account locked.

I have an ASP.Net app, that runs using windows authentication. The connection to the SQL Server is usually done by creating a sql server account and using that in the connection string.
However, in this specific very restrictive hosting environment, we have been asked to use a specific WINDOWS/active directory account to connect to the SQL Server.
note it is not the windows credentials of the user of the website, we need to connect to the SQL server with - it is one specific windows/AD account.
