Connecting to SQL Server 2005
I was wondering if I need to install something on the client in order to
establish ODBC/OLEDB connection to SQL Server 2005. Currently, I have ADO
2.6 installed. Are there any changes in ODBC/OLEDB drivers for SQL Server
2005?
Thanks,
IgorHi
It is best to use MDAC 2.8, but 2.6 will connect to SQL Server 2005, but you
will not be able to use the new datatypes that SQL Server 2005 has
introduced.
The ODBC/OLEDB drivers no longer ship with SQL Server, as it is now a
function of the Operating System to update them.
The new way to connect to SQL Server 2005 is SQL Native Client (SQLNCLI)
"Provider=SQLNCLI"

This is not quite right. MDAC is part of the operating system, but SQL
Native Client is not.
The SQL Native Client is a seperate install. It is included in the SQL
Server distribution and available here:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/data/sqlnative/default.aspx
There are now 3! OleDb providers for SQL Server. Two in MDAC: MSDASQL
(deprecated) and SQLOLEDB (current). Plus one in the SQL Native Client
(SQLNCLI). SQLNCLI is the best, but you must install it.
SQL Native Client also has a new ODBC driver.
David|||David,
I am able to connect to SQL Server 2005 using SQL Native Client but
I got en error 'Server unavailable or access denied ...' when trying to
connect using Microsoft OLE DB provider for SQL Server. I am trying to
connect by setting up properties of UDL file on the same box where SQL
Server is installed. Did I get it right that I have to install latest
drivers on client computers from the link your provided?
Thanks,
Igor

|||I'm having the same problem, seams like reportbuilder can't connect to host when you try to use it in an EXTRANET, because if you try it in an INTRANET works perfectly.
I hope someone could help us on this matter. (ASAP)
|||Couple of things about Report Builder -
1) Report Builder requires the .net framework 2.0 to be installed on the client machine. I think that's the problem you're encountering related to to the .application file.
2) Report Builder requires a direct connection back to the report server in order to work. That means that you have to expose your report server on the extranet. This has security implications for your deployement - when report server is available on the extranet, so are all the other reports that are on that report server. Also, the report server SOAP API is available on the internet - so application authors can try to have programmatic access to your report server.
When pursuing this type of deployment you should evaluate your security story for your corporate data. Often what is sufficient is to provide the actual report output to the user through the use of a ReportViewer control in an ASP.Net application - this reduces the amount of data that is accessible from outside your company's firewall.
Hope that helps,

|||I'm having the same problem, seams like reportbuilder can't connect to host when you try to use it in an EXTRANET, because if you try it in an INTRANET works perfectly.
I hope someone could help us on this matter. (ASAP)
|||Couple of things about Report Builder -
1) Report Builder requires the .net framework 2.0 to be installed on the client machine. I think that's the problem you're encountering related to to the .application file.
2) Report Builder requires a direct connection back to the report server in order to work. That means that you have to expose your report server on the extranet. This has security implications for your deployement - when report server is available on the extranet, so are all the other reports that are on that report server. Also, the report server SOAP API is available on the internet - so application authors can try to have programmatic access to your report server.
When pursuing this type of deployment you should evaluate your security story for your corporate data. Often what is sufficient is to provide the actual report output to the user through the use of a ReportViewer control in an ASP.Net application - this reduces the amount of data that is accessible from outside your company's firewall.
Hope that helps,

connecting to remote server
we've C# app that connects a sql server 2005. we've new requests from client that when users go offsite they still want use our app and connect to sql server.
my question is how can we connect to sql server remotely ?
is it using TCP/IP protocol ? if so how do we do that ?
Thanks for ur help.
Use SQL Server Configuration Manager, select protocols for your instance. On the right side, enable TCP protocol. You need restart the sql server. If you have firewall, don't forget to put your tcp port into exception, (also UDP port 1434 for sql browser if you have a named instance.)
|||Thanks for that Hong.
i've one more question on this.
what should my connection string contain ? should it contain IP address for server name ?
Thanks again|||btw we use patterns and practices library for our database connections.|||Either IP address or server name should work if your DNS works correctly.
Thanks.|||
Thank you very much for ur replies Hong.
still need some clarification as am not fully aware how DNS works .
currently in our connections string we specify our sql server name as "mallu" and other info like database etc.,(btw we use enterprise library for data access)
are you saying that once we open port on our server and allow remote connects abv connection string just works ? i mean say if we our server is in new zealand and user goes to say australia and he still be able connect ?
Thanks for clarification .
much appreciated you can point me to some resource on these issues on net
|||Hi prk,
DNS is the Domain Name System -- essentially the directory service that translates your hostnames into IP address. Your network probably has one and your network admin should be able to give you more info.
Regardless of the geography, if your server is configured to listen to a remote protocol and the firewall (if any) is configured properly, you should be able to connect from your client app. The BOL contains some great information on how to do so:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms190608.aspx
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms187853.aspx

Connecting to MSDE via client
I installed MSDE on a Winxp workstation.
I then setup clients to access MSDE via TCP/IP using the (Static) IP Address
address of the workstation.
Connection successful
I then removed MSDE2000 and installed MSDE2000 sp3a
Went I to connect to MSDE via TCP/IP and could not connect using the IP
When I changed to The machine name I could connect to MSDE2000
Anyone with any idea.
Server was winXP and workstations Win98 and Win08se.

Check that the Server (via sql server network utility) is configured to
use TCP/IP. Also check your client is configured like this too (client
network utility).

=============
Connecting to MSDE from client
We are using MSDE as a cheap datastore in our client/server app. MSDE is installed only on the server and both the server and the clients connect to it from their machines.
When we deploy on Windows XP, we see that our code running on the server can access MSDE, but our code running on a client machine cannot connect to MSDE.
The clients are able to connect on Windows 2000 ... can anyone help me understand this ?
Thanks in advance,

MSDE only allow local access.Connecting to MDF file over Workgroup
Hi
I've build a client management (Windows) application in VS2005 which works fine on the local development machine but falls over when trying to connect to the SQL Server Express file located on a second machine on the same Workgroup. Several of the apllications will connect to the database file from networked computers.
The error I get when testing the connection or trying to connect via the App is:
-------------------
The file "Z:\BushBreaks.MDF" is on a network path that is not supported for database files.
An attempt to attach and auto-named database for file z:\bushbreaks.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened or it is on a UNC share.
-------------------
How can I configure this database and/or connection to be able to allow connections to the MDF file? Please note that security is not an issue if that is at all relevant.
Many Thanks
John
Current you can't use remote database file in your SQL connection. Here is a instruction about AttachDBFileName property in connection string from MSDN:
The name of the primary database file, including the full path name of an attachable database. The path may be absolute or relative by using the DataDirectory substitution string. If DataDirectory is used, the database file must exist within a subdirectory of the directory pointed to by the substitution string.
Remote server, HTTP, and UNC path names are not supported.
For more information, you can refer to:
http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/system.data.sqlclient.sqlconnection.connectionstring.aspx
Connecting to local instance with firewall client enabled
works fine without firewall client enabled. When I VPN in to the
network and enable the ISA server firewall client, I can't connect to
my local instance using Enterprise Manager or Query Analyzer, although
I can connect to another instance running on a server on the network.
If I'm VPNed in and I don't enable firewall client, I can still
connect to the local instance. And interestingly my ASP.NET
application (running locally) can still connect to the local SQL
Server instance once I changed the server name in web.config from
localhost to chris-laptop.
Any help would be greatly appreciated, as I really need to have
firewall client enabled and access to my databases through query
analyser at the same time.
Thanks
Chris BettertonIf you specifiy the ip address that SQL Server is listening on when
attempting to connect via Query Analyzer, does it allow you to connect?
If it does then you can use the SQL CLient Network Utility to create an
alias that points the server name to the ip address. This would let you
connect using the server name.

Connecting to AS 400
How can I connect to AS400 from SQL Server 2000.
Client prefers NO DSN.
Thanks
Vijay
I will persist till I win.Install Client Access on the SQL Server box and then
configure the linked server as described in books online
under Linked Servers, configuring.
For data source, use the IP address of the AS400. For
provider string, you need to include the library you are
using, connect timeout setting and code page. There is some
documentation for the settings in the Client Access help
files. You'd set the provider string somewhat like:
InitCat=YourLibrary;CCSID=37;PCCodePage=
1252;
Data Source=xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
Settings will depend on how your AS400 is configured. Again,
the Client Access help files have information on the
necessary connection string settings.

Connecting to Analysis Server 2005
Does anybody knows if a 2000 analysis services client could connect to a 2005 Analysis Server ?
Thanks
If by "client" you mean "client components", i.e. PTS aka OLEDB driver msolap80.dll - then the answer is NO. There was a version of ADOMD.NET which shipped after AS2000 but before AS2005 - it can connect to AS2005.

Connecting to a Network Server - a simple question !!
Hi
My question should be relatively simple.
I have a server machine (Windows XP + SQL SERVER 2005 EXPRESS) : IP (192.168.1.1)
2 client machines:
Client 1 (Windows XP + SQL SERVER 2005 EXPRESS) : IP (192.168.1.100)
Client 2 (Windows XP + SQL SERVER 2005 EXPRESS) : IP (192.168.1.101)
I want to connect the 2 clients to the server database in a simple client\server arch.
what should I do ?!!!
Thank you in advance.
By default SQL EXPRESS does not allow remote connections and is meant to be used as a Client database only.
You can enable the Remote Connections with configuration tools, but there are limitations.
I am not sure what you mean in a Client Server architecture, as you are using all Client OS versions, and connecting SQL - SQL would not necessarily be a Client Server arch.
More info would help as to what you are trying to accomplish in setting up 3 instances of SQL Server to talk to each other (other than replication, etc).

Hi Developer00x,
You will need a minimum install of sql server 2005 standard edition to achieve what you are attempting to do...
Barry Andrew|||I am not sure, why he should need a Std. Edition for the scenario described as he did not mention anything about replication or something else. If he just wants to connect to the server from the clients, he will just need to have any SNAC / OLEDB / MDAC (which is shipped with Windows XP) and enable remote connections like Ben suggested.
