SQL Server :: Connection String To Connect With 2008?
Sep 23, 2010
be it's a wrong place to ask the following question. Sorry for that. Our hosting provider has recently upgraded their database server from Sql Server 2005 to 2008 and I'm getting errors to connect with remote server from my development machine. Error Message "Invalid connection". Tried to find solution on net but couldn't find it.I'm using .Net 1.1. Though we've updated versions 2.0,3.5 & 4.0 but due to some certain circumstances I've no way to update it. It's a web based project. The following connection string works fine for Sql Server 2000 & 2005 but not for 2008.<add key="ConnectionString" value="Data Source=Remote Server's domain name;Initial Catalog=database name;User ID=user name;Password=surround;Persist Security Info=True;Pooling=false;Connect Timeout=45;" />Here Remote Server's domain name indicates to remote db server like: test.mysite4now.comdatabase name for example: test_surrounduser name like test_surroundpassword: surround.Can anyone inform me what's wrong with the above connection string to connect to Sql Server 2008.
I have an ASP.Net website running on IIS7. The Application Pool is set to ASPv4 Classic.
Authentication Mode is set to ASP.Net Authentication & Windows Authentication
My question is, when I want to connect to SQL using a "trusted connection" in the Connection String, what user will actually be passed into SQL?
I thought it would pass my logon details, but it is coming back with an NT AUTHORITYANONYMOUS LOGON error, which seems to point towards it not passing in my logon.
Is it possible to connect to a SQL Server Express 2008 database in ASP.NET with a server name of (local) like "server=(local);integrated security=SSPI;database=DBNAME"? I'm working with another developer on a project and it's getting annoying having to have 2 different version of web.config because he is using SQL Server 2008 and (local) works, but I can't seem to get it to work with SQL Server 2008 Express locally. The database is located on the same computer as the .NET code in case that matters.
I have a new server that I am attempting to deply my very first asp.net website on. I have installed SQL 2008 r2 and loaded my DB on it. I am able to access the server/DB through Visual Stuidio. At least I know i can call it from the webserver to my local PC.
For some reason I just cant get my we.config's connection strong right. It might even be the <provider> info that I have wrong. I am just too inexperienced to know for sure. My Web.Config is very short so I will post all of it here.
-- Code is posted at the end --
How do I modify my local project to use my webservers DB instead of the standard SQL Express DB? The only connection string
Machine.Config that points to the sqlexpress database. Again I lack the experience to know how to do this. I am using Visual Studio 2010 and SQL Server 2008 r2 on my local pc.
When I try to encrypt the "connectionStrings" section in the web.config file of my asp.net web application on Windows Server 2008, I'm getting the following error:
Administration utility (2.0.50727) to install and uninstall ASP.NET on the local machine. Copyright (c) Microsoft Corporation. All rights reserved. Note: This utility has limited capabilities on the Windows Vista operating system. It is recommended that you use the "Turn on or off Windows features" option of the "Programs" component of Control Panel to install or remove ASP.NET. It is also recommended that you use the IIS Manager component or the Appcmd.exe tool to configure ASP.NET applications.
The above information is followed by the list of valid options to aspnet_regiis.exe.
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 dropdownlist contaning years..now i want to connect my database by dropdown selection.if i select 2013 it will connect 2013 database ,if i select 2014 it connect 2014 so on..
give me an example of the proper connection string for getting VS 2010 to use the aspnet database on my SQL 2008 server? The db is there, I just can't seem to get connected. Server name GUNSITESQL, mixed security. I want to logon with a SQL user logon id, the db name is the default aspnet.
We recently launched a new web site.there are roughly ~150 users active during peak hours.During peak hours,we are experiencing an issue every few minutes,the exception text is listed below.
System.Web.HttpUnhandledException: Exception of type 'System.Web.HttpUnhandledException' was thrown. ---> System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: The client was unable to establish a connection because of an error during connection initialization process before login.
Possible causes include the following: the client tried to connect to an unsupported version of SQL Server; the server was too busy to accept new connections; or there was a resource limitation (insufficient memory or maximum allowed connections) on the server.(provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 0 - No process is on the other end of the pipe.)
Our data access layer calls various DataTableAdapters using the following syntax.
EDIT
Yes, da is the name assigned to the DataTableAdapter. There is no connection.Open() because the DataTableAdapter takes care of all that, right?

I try to connect sql server 2005 through OBDC connection bt i face a error, i face this error
ERROR [08001] [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBNETLIB]SQL Server does not exist or access denied. ERROR [01000] [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBNETLIB]ConnectionOpen (Connect()).
OdbcConnection conn = new OdbcConnection("Driver={SQL Server};Server=test;UID=sa;PWD=java;");// test is my ODBC connection name string query = "INSERT INTO test VALUES ('" + textBox1.Text + "','" + textBox2.Text + "')"; OdbcCommand cmd = new OdbcCommand(query, conn); try { conn.Open(); cmd.ExecuteNonQuery(); MessageBox.Show("Record Inserted."); } finally { conn.Close(); }
I ahve a solution with a few dll projects, a winforms testbed and a WCF webservice project. In the data project, I have a base class that does the following:
public class BaseDAO { private const string CONNECTION_NAME = "OracleConnectionString"; protected static string GetConnectionString() { ConnectionStringSettingsCollection settings = ConfigurationManager.ConnectionStrings; string conStr = ""; if (settings != null) { foreach(ConnectionStringSettings setting in settings) { if (setting.Name == CONNECTION_NAME) { conStr = setting.ConnectionString; } } return conStr; } else { throw new NotImplementedException("The connction string can't be found"); } }
You might ask, why do I need to loop and check the name against a constant? Well, I have defined the connection string in the service project's web.config, but this above code always find two connection strings, one is a sqlexpress which I guess is a default database of some sort. So, to separate that one against the one I really use, I have to loop through all entries and pick out the one I plan to use. How do I prevent this? Is there a better way to fetch the connection string from the data project?
I just installed SQL Server 2008 Management studio Express on my Vista machine.i tried connecting to local machine using :
.sqlexpress, (local)sqlexpress, or .SQLExpress, MyPCNAMESQLExpress
nothing is working, getting this error:
----------------------------- Cannot connect to PC-NAMESQLEXPRESS. 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 have installed sql 2008 R2 and also sql management studio. I am able to connect to the db through windows and sql authentication. I have then installed VS2010 express edition. When I goto Database explorer, right click on data connection, I can see only add connection which is not grayed out. From here no matter what I do, I cannot connect to the db. Infact I get 3 optins 1. Acess database file, 2. sql server compact 3.5 , 3. sql server database file
I am using Sql Server 2008 to connect to a Remote Server. Everything was working fine for the last couple of months, and i was successfully connecting to the remote server. Today it suddenly stopped connecting to the remote server. note that i did not alter any configuration settings. Did my isp block Sql Server. My ISP is using ISA SERVER? The error details are:
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) (.Net SqlClient Data Provider) I am using Microsoft Firewall Client For ISA Server for opening ports. But today nothing is working.
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "xx.xxx.xxx.xxx" returned message "The partner transaction manager has disabled its support for remote/network transactions.".
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?
