I just installed sql server 2008 R2 on my computer. I am trying to connect to sql server throught my C# code and everytime I run the C# program,

Sql Server - App Pointing To Wrong Database

Feb 28, 2011

I've got a web app that uses a MS SQL Server 2008 database. Recently I made two copies of the database, one for ongoing development, the other for users to begin testing and evaluting the application.

I've got two seperate web applications now. I've changed the web.config of the 'test' version to point to the test DB, but it still seems to be using the previous version.

Is this cached somewhere? I've run IISRESET on the box, but the the 'test' version of my web app still seems to point to the wrong DB.

SQL Server :: Accessing Database Without Using Connection String In Web.config

Aug 2, 2010

To give some background details, I have created a website for a friend that has a few pages that require a database in the background. I've used Visual Studio templates for most of it, so there's the standard ASPNETDB.MDF file that's created for users and groups, a login page and a page to view and manage those users etc etc. The login page uses the standard controls for logging in, retrieving lost passwords and so on. Being standard controls, by default they get the connection string from the web.config file. Upon attempting to upload the site to my host (1and1.co.uk in case anyone else has any dealings with them) I discovered that storing the connectionstring doesn't work. 1and1 support say that the sql databases can only be accessed using scripts like this (this is an example of theirs):

<html>
<title>Queries from the MS-SQL database with ASP</title>
<body bgcolor="FFFFFF">
<h2>Query from table <b>products</b> with ASP</h2>
<%
Set conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")
conn.open "PROVIDER=SQLOLEDB;DATA SOURCE=mssqxxx.1and1.com;UID=dboxxxxxxxxx;PWD=xxxxxxxx;DATABASE=dbxxxxxxxxx"
'This code block will create a recordset
Set rs = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
SQL = "select * from products"
rs.open SQL, conn
'will iterate to display the records got from the database
While Not rs.EOF
&nbsp; response.write(rs("id") & " " & rs("price"))
&nbsp; rs.MoveNext
Wend
'closes the connection
rs.close
conn.close
Set rs = Nothing
Set conn = Nothing
%>
</body>
</html>

So my question, is it possible to get the standard asp.net controls to access a database through a script like this?

SQL Server :: Receiving An Error - A Network-related Or Instance-specific Error Occurred While Establishing A Connection To SQL Server

Sep 23, 2010

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.

(provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)

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:

<add
name="ApplicationServices"
connectionString="data [code].....

For info the environments are set up as follows:

- Dev environment is vwd express 2010 with sqlite mdf attached

- Test environment is windows 7 server, iis 7 with appdomain identity set to network service

DataSource Controls :: 2147467259/A Network-related Or Instance-specific Error Occurred While Establishing A Connection To SQL Server

May 21, 2010

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.

I am creatingProfileBase object:

ProfileBase profileBase = ProfileBase.Create(profileInformation.UserName);

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.

C# - Error / "A Network-related Or Instance-specific Error Occurred While Establishing A Connection To SQL Server

Sep 8, 2010

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:

<add name="cn"
connectionString="server=HCL;DataBase=GS;Integrated Security=True" />

"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?

Provider Connection String Of Entity Framework Be Substituted With A DB Connection String Already Defined In Web.config?

Feb 2, 2011

I have a db connection string 'ApplicationServices' defined in the connectionString section of web.config and 3 Entity Framework connection strings which have the provider connection string attribute with the same connection string as the one in 'ApplicationServices'. Is there a way to reference connectionString in 'ApplicationServices' for the provider connection string attribute of the EF connection string in the web.config, rather than providing the connection string all over again?

Security :: The SSE Provider Did Not Find The Database File Specified In The Connection String

Feb 11, 2011

I have a very basic web site that uses a standard login control. It was original built using ASP.NET 2.0, and when I preformed a few site improvments, VS 2010 upgraded the site to version 4.0. Locally, everything is fine. But live, everything is working except the login authentication. All other pages that use the database work fine.

does the upgrade process affect the database? As this is the only thing I've not replaced on the live server.

The error I get with the login is:

The SSE Provider did not find the database file specified in the connection string. At the configured trust level (below High trust level), the SSE provider can not automatically create the database file Any thoughts?
