DataSource Controls :: Sql Server Network Related Error?
Jun 2, 2010
I have the folloing sql server error from my ASP.NET website.
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: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
This seems to be a network related issue. But on the same machine where IIS is running, I have another C# application running that is not experiencing this problem. This happens after the website has been running for a few weeks. Will this be because the database connections are opened but not closed properly?. I wrote a test web page where i just open connection but not close it and I got Time out error when connection pooling is maxed out. Is this memory issue? Memory that are allocated are not deallocated in timely fashion?..
Everything is working fine for a few weeks and after that I get the above network error.
Following is the error I am getting while accessing some of the pages on my website.
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: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
It is trowing an exception and giving the about mentioned error.
i get error 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: TCP Provider, error: 0 - No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.)
I am using Asp.Net MVC 2.0 for creating a user and assigning properties to the user at the same time. I am using my Windows account to access database on my local computer. I am using pre-installed MVC code o create a user with unique user name and password. User is created OK. Then I want to add profile properties like First and Last name at the same time.
where profileInformation is a RegisterModel and has user info.
When I am trying to:
profileBase.SetPropertyValue(.....);
I am getting the following error # 2147467259 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: Shared Memory Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)"}
Why is my connection string works fine the first time and not working now? And how to configure connection to use TCP-IP?
I have SQL Server Browser running ander Local account and openned port in my Firewall.
I've created a small website with a simple sqlite database using vwd 2010 .net 4. In dev and test envionments everything works fine, however when i promote to my hosting provider i receive the following error:
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.
I've been configuring the connection strings (autogenerated from entity framework and attached db) but unable to get it working on the hosting provider, I'm assuming it's related to permissions but not entirely sure how to resolve - here's the web.config as it stands:
I am REALLY stuck with this and need a solution in the next 24 hours .i I have uploaded my asp.net web application to the web and have the database and connection strings functioning and reading the data from the database. But when I try to write to the DB
I get the following error :
Server Error in '/' Application.
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.
Description:An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.
Exception Details: System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: 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: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)
The wierd thing about this is the connection strings work from the local machine when I run from Visual Studio and I can write to the DB there, I just cannot write to the DB from the URL.
I am pretty new to asp.net but I am sure it has to be something to do with the web.config.
I am trying to create a simple login page in ASP.NET C# but am getting some error.
I googled about the error, and tried all the solutions but to no avail.What am I doing wrong? The error is:
"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: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)"
I think it's something to do with my connection string which is as follows:
"HCL" is another machine connected to my PC through the LAN and this database, "GS", resides on it. Is the problem with the value I am giving in "Server" attribute of the above code? If not what else may I be doing wrong?
I recently did an OS reinstall and tried to use my previously-working projects. I found that there was trouble connecting to the database for my aspnetdb.mdf. I have also tried a new project and adding a database to the project but I get the error 'a network related or instance specific...' error. I have tried reinstalling sql server 2005 express but still no luck. When I fire up sql server management studio i see the server name is the same as my computer name. I remember before the os reinstall that the server name was 'sqlexpress'.Anybody got any ideas as to how I can create databases inside of visual web developer again?
I try to login to SQL Server Management Studio, using Windows Authentication and I get the error message:
Cannot connect to L-VAIOsqlexpress.

I have a formview with an entityDataSource. I need to include columns from related fields. I have seen many demos, with AdventureWorksDB, that imply that you can do this by using INCLUDE in the entitydatasource declaration. I have tried made many attempts and it just does not seem to work as demonstrated. I have attached the errors below and the EDS. I have also attached a JPEG of the model I am working in. Three errors demonstrating 3 different attempts to include a related table:
DataBinding: 'TmModel.tbICObjectBase' does not contain a property with the name 'Group' the code declaration for error 1: <asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("Group") %>' /> DataBinding: 'TmModel.tbICObjectBase' does not contain a property with the name 'tbICTagBase'. the code declaration for error 2: <asp:Label ID="Label1" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("tbICTagBase.Group") %>' /> DataBinding: 'System.Data.Objects.DataClasses.EntityCollection`1[[TmModel.tbICTagBase, TmModel, Version=1.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null]]' does not contain a property with the name 'Group'. the code declaration for error 3: <asp:Label ID="tbICTagBasesLabel" runat="server" Text='<%# Bind("tbICTagBases.Group") %>' /> EntityDataSource <asp:EntityDataSource ID="entDSObjectBase" runat="server" AutoGenerateWhereClause="True" ConnectionString="name=IntouchDBContainer" Include="tbICTagBases" DefaultContainerName="IntouchDBContainer" EnableFlattening="False" EntitySetName="tbICObjectBases" EnableDelete="True" EnableInsert="True" EnableUpdate="True" EntityTypeFilter="tbICObjectBase"> <WhereParameters> <asp:SessionParameter SessionField="Tag" Name="RecID" Type="Int64" /> </WhereParameters> </asp:EntityDataSource>
Let say you read a customer record into Customer object. Do it read all the related records across tables at the same time Or it only reads when you do from o in customerobject.orders
Not sure why it works if i connect to SQL 2005 on another server, but now that i have SQL Express on the same server as the pages, im getting the following error: I have attached my connection string within my web.config and also how its being called within the code behind. Now this page was written by another programmer some time back.. so not sure if the method he used to do this is the best or only way. But i have connected to other SQL database with other applications with alot less code.
