how to connect to remote database(SQL server)using c#
View 2 RepliesWe have a database on our server, here at the office. We now want to create a asp.net website that will be accessible to the public.
Say the domain of the website is [URL] and it's hosted on a webserver of HeartInternet.
When someone connects to that domain, that webpage must be able to pull data from our server that is located here in our office.
In other words the webpage cannot just load data out of the MySQL database loaded on its server, but it has to connect to our server and get data.
I have created web pages using VS Web Developer that use a local Developer Edition of SQL server database on my PC with LINQ to SQL. When I deploy my website to a remote web host SQL server, I need for my web pages to be able to use the remote database instead of the local database. So, how do I get the Server Explorer to connect with a remote SQL Server database?

View 2 RepliesI have Oracle (10g Express Edition) installed on one pc.
Visual Studio 2008 SP1 is installed on another pc.
I want to run an ASP.NET web app that uses the remote database. The two PCs are connected by a LAN (wired) connection. How can I connect to the database? What will the connection string be? The operating system on both PCs is Windows XP.
I keep getting a
InvalidOperationException: ExecuteReader requires an open and available Connection. The connection's current state is closed.]
It is because my connection is closed. What is wrong with my connection string? Why won't it open.

I have 2 servers. the database server (DB1) which has sqlserver installed and the application server (WEB1) which has my web application. They are both on the same network and both have the same administrator login.
My web application on the application server needs to access the database on the database server. sqlserver is set to mixed mode in security. i created a random sqlserver user login that can only access my database and set it as the db owner. I use the username and password for this in my connection string. when i run my web application i can read information but i cant write to the database. My app is using windows thentication. I have set my NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE account to db_owner for my database as well... grabbing at straws!
Question 1: When my application talks to sqlserver does it use the administrator login or the NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE account which i got from using windowsidentity.getcurrent()?
Question 2: If I use ASP.Net impersonation, what does this do exactly? Because if i run the ndowsIdentity.GetCurrent() i get the username that i specified. How does this tie in with my connection string?
Question 3: If I dont use impersonation what and how do i have to configure sqlserver to accept my insert/update requests? Do i need to work with the NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE? or can i just use my user login? What do i need to add or remove from my connection string? (see below).

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:

I am working on a project where one of the requirements is to re-write an ASP.NET application. The old ASP.NET application was based on .NET Framework 1.1. The new ASP.NET application is based on .NET Framework 3.5.
One of the functions in the old web application was the ability to send email. The old code used the System.Web.Mail.SmtpMail class, whereas the new web application uses the System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient class.
In testing this on our development servers, everything worked fine. However, we have two beta clients testing out our software, and they both run into problems sending email in the new web application.
The specific exception is as follows:
"Unable to connect to the remote server ---> System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it"
Both the old and new ASP.NET application are on the same server (Windows Server 2003). They both are using the same Exchange mail server. Why is it that the old ASP.NET application can successfully send email, but the new one cannot?
I looked at the old code, and it did not use any form of authentication, it just specified the sender's email address, the recipient's email address, the subject, body, and server, and sent the message. I did the same thing in the new code, with the only difference being that I used the SmtpClient class.
Below is a code snippet from the new ASP.NET application:
System.Net.Mail.MailMessage mail = new System.Net.Mail.MailMessage();
mail.To.Add(messageTo);
mail.From = new MailAddress(messageFrom);
mail.Subject = messageSubject;
mail.Body = messageBody;
SmtpClient client = new SmtpClient();
client.Host = smtpServer;
client.Send(mail);

I have got this error
Unable to connect to the remote server
when I call the web service from the windows service. But I can visit this web service through IE and I also wrote another console application to call the web service and it works fine, too.
The exception infomation is below:
A socket operation was attempted to an unreachable network 127.0.0.1:8888
Here is my code:
WebImageSVC webSvc = new WebImageSVC();
ConfigManager.LoadConfigManager();
webSvc.Url = ConfigManager.WebSvcAddress;
webSvc.Proxy = null;
webSvc.CanUpload(0, "");
I try many methods, like turn off the firewall and anti-virus software, set the web services proxy property to null. but still cannot solve this issue.
My site sends confirmation emails from a purchase. 95% of the time, it works. The other 5% after clicking the 'Confirm' button that runs the payment and should send the email, i get the following exception:
Details:
Exception: Failure sending mail.
Inner Exception: Unable to connect to the remote server
Inner Exception(2): A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond 72.167.234.197:25
The code to send the email is this:
Dim smtpClientPayPalSuccess As System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient = New System.Net.Mail.SmtpClient()
smtpClientPayPalSuccess.Host = "relay-hosting.secureserver.net"
smtpClientPayPalSuccess.Send(mailMessagePayPalSuccess)
FYI: I have confirmed with the hosting that I don't need any credentials, or a different port number than 25. This is also running over https. why this would be happening only a small percentage of the time?
I have a problem, my database reside on a separate server and my online website need to access that server to get some data. The server is in my office and connected with Internet.
I have configure the SQL server 2005 on the server to allow remote connections. Enabled TCP/IP and named pipeline. The port is 1433.
I give following connectionstrings.
1. <add name="DatabaseConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=nt1111;Initial Catalog=testdatabase;Persist Security Info=True;User ID=test;Password=***" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/>
2. <add name="DatabaseConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=nt1111;Initial Catalog=testdatabase; User ID=test;Password= "***"; User Instance=False" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
3. The same as 2 but with IP <add name="DatabaseConnectionString" connectionString="Data Source=999.99.9.99;Initial Catalog=testdatabase; User ID=test;Password= "***"; User Instance=False" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" />
I've returned again to my problem of trying to connect to the SQL database on my website from a Windows forms application. I had some success but then I was playing around with some things and deleting stuff etc to see what would happen. I deleted the Database that I successfully connected to and added a new database for reasons I won't go into. Now when I try to connect to the new database I don't have success.

I have my code here, it works fine from my home, where my user is administrator, and I am connected to internet via a cable network.
But, problem is when I try this code from my work place, it does not work. Shows error:
"unable to connect to the remote server"
From a different machine in the same network:
"A socket operation was attempted to an unreachable network 209.xxx.xx.52:25"
I checked with our network admin, and he assured me that all the mail ports are open [25,110, and other ports for gmail].
Then, I logged in with administrative privilege, there was a little improvement, it did not show any error, but the actual email was never received.
note that, the code was tested from development environment, visual studio 2005 and 2008.
try
{
MailMessage mail_message = new MailMessage("xxxxx@y7mail.com", txtToEmail.Text, txtSubject.Text, txtBody.Text);

How can I solve it, i searched on net and the answer was server has no cr Runtime, install CR Runtime on server or Copy the .dll Files in Bin Folder, I downloaded the 10.5.3700.0 CR Runtime bt it is giving error when i try to install it...
I have a website used by clients for reporting purposes and would like to give clients the option of my website reading their local database directly (instead of them providing data in a file format).In most instances their database would be SQL Express setup on their localhost.
How can I connect to a clients local SQL server via my website, using asp.net / javascript etc? If the client provides their connection string properties, localhost would just refer to my server's localhost...
Consider the following :Most people connect to the internet via an ISP. THeir database will run on their localhost and will not have a public address as such.Ideally, the client must supply some connectionstring (database name, login etc.) and my server must connect.VPN's wont work for this - I must connect to them (in a programmatic way) and pull data, not the other way around.
