Can't connect Azure Database in SQL Server

Hi,
I completed setting up the database and server on Azure, but when i tried to connect it using SQL Server 2012. I got an error.
TITLE: Connect to Server
Cannot connect to tcp:*******.database.windows.net,1433.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
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:
TCP Provider, error: 0 - No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it.) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 10061)
For help, click:
http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink?ProdName=Microsoft%20SQL%20Server&EvtSrc=MSSQLServer&EvtID=10061&LinkId=20476
No connection could be made because the target machine actively refused it
My IP was already added in Azure.
I also checked that the TCP/IP was enabled on Configuration Manager.
Any thoughts?
Thanks!!

Hi Aaron,
If you are trying to manage your database through SSMS - make sure that the TCP/IP protocol is enabled.
1) SQL server configuration manager
2) In 'SQL server Network configuration'
3) Enable TCP/IP
Also try connecting your database through the web based sql azure management studio.

Can we use different Databases (Oracle & SQL Server) in one report?

Post Author: venki5star
CA Forum: .NET
Hi there.
Can we use different databases (Oracle & SQL Server) in a same report?
If possible how?
Another question,
Can we change the Provider Name at runtime of the given report. If so the above question is useless...
Thanks in Advance.

I tried this using Oracle Provider for OLEDB (the one that supplied by Oracle Client) and Crystal Reports 9. you can drag the column into designer but the image does not appear in preview.
I guess it's because CR does not recognized it as image, and there are no information that the blob data is an image at all.

How can I connect to Oracle and SQL server at the same time?

I have been trying to find a way to connect to Oracle Database through the developer 2000 and SQL server at the same time. I need to return some data from Oracle Database and some from the Sql Server Database. And update both through SQL. I find there is such a thing as the Oracle Transparent Gateway for SQL server. I can't find it on any of my CD's or through OTN downloadable files. If anyone can point me where to get this. Or tell of another way this can be accomplished I would appreciate it. TIA.

As far as I know you have 3 options depending on your specifications. I don't think option #3 will work if you need to actually join a
SQL Server table to an Oracle table.
1. Oracle Transparent Gateway. I haven't used the Oracle Transparent Gateway but my understanding is that Oracle gateways are
separate purchased products from Oracle. I've never seen any free/development versions of it anywhere. You'll need to contact
your Oracle sales rep about it.
2. Heterogeneous Connectivity. There's something called Heterogeneous Connectivity that could work for you - depends on what
version of Oracle you're on and what OS. You basically set up an ODBC data source on the Oracle server and modify the listener.ora
and tnsnames.ora files. You can then create a database link to SQL Server just like you would to any other Oracle database. You can
check your Oracle documentation for how this works. There's also some very good documents on Metalink that tell you how to do this
as well as a Heterogeneous Connectivity forum on this site.
3. Use the exec_sql package available in Developer 2000. This allows you to open and execute cursors to remote databases within
Developer. We have an account validation process that uses this - when a person enters an account number in a form while logged
into Oracle it validates the account is valid in our main accounting DB2 database. We also pull HR information from DB2 into Oracle
this way. If you're using Forms 6i exec_sql is a built-in command, in Forms 5.0 and 5.5 you have to add it as an attached library to
the form. I think you also need the OCA options installed from the Developer software to have access to the library in Forms 5.0 and
5.5. The library will be in the $ORACLE_HOME\oca20\plsqllib directory for these versions. The Developer documentation should have
additional information.

Can't connect to external MS SQL server

I have two primaries and an external db. The two primaries were updated from 11.2.3 to 11.3. Everything is working great and the upgrade was successful.
My database runs on an external MS SQL server. It hosts both the zcm database and the audit database.
When I installed ZRS 5 I pointed it at one of my primaries. The install says it was successful and it appears to have successful pulled in my configuration for both zcm and zcm_audit to /opt/novell/zenworks-reporting/conf/zrs-configuration.xml.
I can log in to ZRS 5. When I try to create a report or run an existing report from the library I always get a connection error. It definitely looks like it can not connect to my external MS SQL db. I cranked all of the logging under Server Settings to DEBUG but I can not seem to find the logs.
I also tried following the Cool Solution using the downloaded zip and pointed it at my external db. It would not connect either. I know the username and password is correct and I tried the username in different styles: username@server, server\username, username. The only thing I can think of is my sql password for both of my users contains an extended character ! and =.
Any help as to where to look or what might be the issue is greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance,
Jeff

I'm not sure, but I may recall hearing that it requires SQL Server Auth
Credentials.
Again I'm only about 51% sure here.

Can i open an SQL express 2005 database in SQL server express 2012?

Hi,
i have a database and it's in SQL express 2005 but because my windows 8 is not compatible with the installer, i have to install the latest 2012 installer. my problem now is that i cannot open it in the 2012 edition..what do i have to do?

Hi white_roses,
Could you let us know how do you restore the database to SQL Server 2012 Express edition? Please help to collect the detail error information of this issue, it will benefit for us to do further investigation.
As Sandesh and ED suggested above, we can directly detach our databases from SQL Server 2005 and then attach them to SQL Server 2012. For detail steps, please refer to the following article:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms187858.aspx
After we move a database from the instance of SQL Server on server A to the instance of SQL Server on server B, users may be unable to log in to the database on server B. If need the logins information on Server B, please refer to the following article:
http://support.microsoft.com/kb/918992
If you have any question, please feel free to let me know.

How to connect to a specific database in SQL server

Hi,
How can I connect to a specific database in SQL server? I used the following statement. But my table is inserted to the 'master' database in the SQL server. How can I insert my tables to the specific database tahta I have created before?
Connection con;
String sURL = "jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://SERVER_NAME:1433";
con = DriverManager.getConnection ( sURL, sUsername, sPassword);

Hi,
When I use the syntax:
String sURL = "jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://SERVER_NAME:1433/DATABASE_NAME;selectMethod=cursor";
it gives an error as follows:
problems connecting to jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://SERVER_NAME:1433/DATABASE_NAME;selectMethod=cursor:
[Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC]Unable to connect. Invalid URL.
What is the way to connect to a specific database?

Can Reporting Services 2005 report on SQL Server 2012 database?

We would like to upgrade our SQL Server from Standard 2005 to Enterprise/Standard 2012. Unfortunately, we also have a lot of reports based on Reporting Services 2005. If possible we would like avoid upgrading them at this time.
Is it possible to run Reporting Services 2005 of SQL Server 2012? If yes then is there pre-requiste like drivers or dll or any other to connect SSRS 2005 to SQL server 2012?
If we run Reporting Services 2005 of SQL Server 2012 then do we will face performance lag issue due to version difference of SSRS 2005 and SQL server 2012?

You need to be a little clearer in what you're asking.
You can't make any web site in SQL Server - it's a database engine, not a website tool.
What you can do is create web sites that pull data from a back-end SQL Server, but the SQL server doesn't handle the client connection at all (that's handled by a web server such as Apache, IIS, or similar).
There are many ways to build such a site including .NET, PHP, Perl and more (although I don't know all the options for Windows servers because they're not as common outside of corporate/enterprise networks).
In either case, given your choice of development language (HTML, plus one of the PHP/Perl/.NET/etc. options), plus your database (SQL Server) plus your web server (IIS, Apache, etc.) you can make any web site you like (or, at least, you're capable of developing).
If you want to opimize that web site for iPhones then there are many references on how mobile browsing differs from the desktop. I'd recommend this book as a reference (and, yes, I understand the irony of linking to a paperback book for web design guidance ). Googling mobile web design (or iPhone web design) might yield more results.

Migrating from Azure SQL Database to SQL Server VM

I'm looking for steps/documentation to migrate a database from Azure SQL Database to SQL Server VM in the cloud. I want to make an app whose data is initially hosted in the former. Due to a few reasons, I might have to migrate to SQL Server VM. I'd
like to design the app such that ideally there is no downtime. Looking for guidance...

You can create bacpac file from Azure SQL database and Restore this bacpac file into SQL Server VM or any other place.

EKM using the Azure Key Vault is now available for SQL Database and SQL Server running in Azure VM's

In preview today, you can create keys in the Azure Key Vault, and use them with Azure SQL Database, or SQL Server running in a Azure VM. Use the Extensible Key Management (EKM) for TDE, backup encryption, or cell level encryption. For more information, see
Extensible Key Management Using Azure Key Vault (SQL Server)
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/dn198405.aspx.
The announcement:
Azure Key Vault in public preview
Key Vault offers an easy, cost-effective way to safeguard keys and other sensitive data used by cloud applications and services. Included are the following features:
Enhance data protection and compliance:
Protect cryptographic keys and sensitive data like passwords with keys stored in Hardware Security Modules (HSMs). For added assurance, import or generate your keys in HSMs certified to FIPS 140-2 level 2 and Common Criteria EAL4 standards,
so that keys stay within the HSM boundary. Key Vault is designed so that Microsoft doesn’t see or extract your keys.
All the control, none of the work:
Provision new vaults and keys in minutes and centrally manage keys, sensitive data, and policies. You maintain control over your encrypted data—simply grant permission for your own and third-party applications to use keys as needed. Enable
developers to easily manage keys used for dev/test and migrate seamlessly to production keys managed by security operations.
Boost performance and achieve global scale: Improve
performance and reduce latency of cloud applications by storing cryptographic keys in the cloud (versus on-premises). Key Vault rapidly scales to meet the cryptographic needs of your cloud applications and match peak demand.
Get started with Azure Key Vault by creating keys for applications you develop,
