I devlopyed on asp.net application in IIS, i need to know how many current database connection is open for the database..
so how can i check how many connection are currently using for this database... if we dont want some connection how can we kill the connection
I'm using Visual Studio 2008, and my database is SQL Server 2000.
I want to add a connection to the Server Explorer in VS. The Data source is Microsoft SQL Server (SqlClient). After entering in all my information and I click Test Connection, it is successful.
But when I click OK, I get the error:
Unable to add data connection. ExecuteScalar requires an open and available connection. The connection's current state is closed.
[Code]....
and i am receiving error as
ERROR [IM002] [Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Data source name not found and no default driver specified
Description:An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code.

I have problems connecting to my database server. The database server is not local, I am connected via its IP address. It works fine in my development machine. After publishing the website to my server, it can not connect to my database server. 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)Why can't my publish server connect to the database server, whereas it works fine through the development machine?
View 5 RepliesThis is regarding ASP.Net (VB) 2.0 and SQL Server 2008. My project's (there is only one in my solution) has a "Start Action" set to a "Specific Page" (..FormsfrmMain.aspx). Occasionally (though not always) a large number of connections (30+) will be opened prior to the frmMain.PreInit event. These connections stay open for quite some time. I am closing all of my connections with extreme prejudice. In my "finally" clause of my try...catch I have myconnection.close. Immediately after the "End Try" I have myconnection.dispose (redundant, I know). I have accounted for all connections. I placed a breakpoint on frmMain.PreInit and then (sometimes) a large number of connections (used SSMS to run sp_who and sp_who2) will have just opened.What would open a large number of connections prior to the starting page's preinit event? I am closing (and then disposing) all of my connections. I thought that I must be missing a myconnection.close in the "finally" clause, but I have looked repeatedly and cannot find anywhere that a connection is open and then not closed. Also, I do not believe that I have even opened a connection prior to the frmMain's preinit event.

i am trying to make a connection to a MS SQL database on my local machine.
I have the following in web.config

I am facing a strange problem .can't figure this out.my web site's all pages are running fine except home page.i got this error
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider,error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)
I have an application with a few dbml files to connect to several sql servers in order to import data from one to another using Linq to SQL.
There are 2 connection strings with integrated security and in one I provide user ID and password.
It all works great in the development workstation. I've then wrapped the dll project and deployed the asp.net application to a test server. Then, when I tried to run the application to import the data, I got a connection exception:
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)
I figured out after some debugging the problem is with the DataContext whose connection string is the one I provide user ID and password. Now, the funny part is that the same connection string works if I create a udl file and test it. And again the same connection string works with my development workstation.
I was wondering about something. I'm supporting a .NET C# application which has a number of database connections declared locally as IDbConnection with MS SQL Server and NHibernate. These connections are declared locally and not explicitly closed after a specific operation is performed. Are these connections automatically closed after the local method is executed, or could these connections be floating around somewhere? We're having semaphore max out problems, and I'm trying to see if this may be the culprit. I'm doubtful, as I believe these connections would automatically close, but thought I'd throw out hte possibility.

View 1 RepliesThis issues has been driving me nuts. I am trying to follow the tutorial on [URL] I am trying to connect to a database in Microsoft SQL Server 2008. The way I do this is by right clicking on the "Data Connections" > Add Connection. Afterwards the Add Connection window comes up, I make sure my data source is "Microsoft SQL Server (SqlClient). And, I choose a server name; the only server I can choose is DomainSQLEXPRESS. The issue is when I go down to the "Select or enter a database name" drop down box, I do not see my database listed. I have also made sure in the SQL Server Management Studio that I have given my user all the privileges for the database. I know my explanation is kind of vague, but would anyone know the reason why I would not see my database?

My web server and database server are currently both in the same room. However, the web server might be changed to a different server in another building about a mile down the street. I want to make sure this doesn't have a negative impact on the connection speed between the database and web server. Is there a way to test the connection speed from both web servers to the database?

View 2 RepliesTo 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
response.write(rs("id") & " " & rs("price"))
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?
I have an asp.net web page which works with a database. When I first upload it I never disposed the connections so after using the different modules of the application for sometime it would suddenly stop working saying the connection pool filled or something like that.To fix it when a user clicked a button I opened the connection, tell the database what I needed and finally disposed the connection.
This seemed to fix everything, in fact you can work with application all you want, the problem comes if you stop using it for certain time.So for instance, I have a module in my webpage where user can capture information for a certain product. When the user clicks in one button the info gets into the database. If the user is continuosly capturing data everything works fine, but if it goes for about 10 min when he clicks the button he will receive an error. To fix this the user has to log-in again.
Every module opens a connection to the database to verify the user identity, but then after it verifies it I dispose the connection so I don't think there is a problem.
I have this following requirement.
My Web Application is hosted on Server A. My Database is hosted on Server B.
Server A and Server B are not on same network. How can i point my connection string to the database in this scenario? Can any one give an example for this kind of Connection String?

My instance name is MSSQLSERVER and the server that I am using is on my local machine and it has my computer name in it.
I am retrieving connection string based on value stored in cookie.NowI am making crystal report. I cannot hard code server credential. I have to get these credential from connection string from web.config. so that i can pass these credentials to my crystal report .
ConnectionInfo reportConnectionInfo = new ConnectionInfo();
reportConnectionInfo.ServerName = connection string server name from web.config
reportConnectionInfo.DatabaseName = connection string database name from web.config
reportConnectionInfo.UserID = ...;
reportConnectionInfo.Password = ...;
My website is working but when I host it up, the connection are all screw up. Is it because my connectionString are all linked via SqlDatasource and is for local files only? Whats the coding that I need to put in so that my site will connect to the database via accessing the web.config or server?

I recently converted an MS Access database to a Sql Server 2008 db using the MSSMA tool, and i am currently still trying to connect two of my web apps to this database. One of them is an asp.Net web application and the other is a classic asp web app. Both apps used an OleDb provider to connect to the ms access database, and my purpose is to migrate the database without having to modify the applications code.I'm using Windows Integrated Security in combination with the NETWORK SERVICE account. Connection to the asp.Net app is behaving normally. I use the following connection string within the web.config file
