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.

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 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:

For help, click:

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.

PI Server Port to connect to an external MS SQL Server over jdbc

Hi All,
I need to connect to an MS SQL server from my PI Server but this SQL server is lying outside our company network.
To enable the connectivity, I have asked the IT Team to establish a VPN connectivity.
The IT team is asking for the port that need to be opened on the PI server to enable this connectivity.
Can you please tell me that which port on the PI server should be opened for this?
regards,
Piyush

Hi
Whether if you use Sender or Receiver communication channel, SAP PI always open the connection to remote server. That is, SAP PI is always the component client, therefore the only thing you should to open is the MS SLQ port.

Error while trying to connect to a remote SQL Server DB using multiconnect

As part of our business process, we need to connect to a SQL Server DB external to SAP.
We have done the following:
1. We set up an ODBC connection on our SAP sandbox server to the external SQL server DB.
Name: sdsdev
Connection string: sdsdev\sqlexpress2008
2. We tested the ODBC connection from within ODBC and it works perfectly
3. Using transaction: DBCO we have set up a DB connection known to SAP that we can use in ABAP to retrieve the data.
    It was set up with exactly the same parameters as with the ODBC.
    We used the following connection string so it would know to use the ODBC DBSL profile parameters, with the DSN name
being the same as defined in the ODBC: See below ...
    DB connection: AR_INTERFACE
    DBMS: MSS
    User Name: ARTransfer
    Password: ******
    Conn info: MSSQL_DSN=sdsdev
4. We also made sure we installed the DBSL dynamic library (DLL) on the R/3 system server.
5. We ran a small test program to test connectivity ... as below ...
     exec sql .
         connect to 'AR_INTERFACE'
     end exec.
     right after the above command we check the system log for status. It failed with the following message:

1. Create an entry in Trxn DBCA for SQL Server in SAP, you are creating a database connection for the SQL server in SAP.
2. You use this connection, and write Native SQL stmnts...between EXECSQL...ENDEXEC to fetch the data..and then normal ABAP statements to put that data into your ztable.
TABLE DBCON Entry can be like this...depends on your External database..

Hybrid Connection fails for Windows SQL Server 2014 - SSL Provider, error: 0 - The certificate chain was issued by an authority that is not trusted

I think it must be a permissions thing, I've turned off the firewall for now and still no difference, 've also made sure remote connection is enabled. I can connect to the other sql server in studio manager on the new machine however, i can't go do
the same in the old server, says:

the instance is def correct, as that is what i use to connect locally on the new machine and what it comes up on the studio manager on the new machine. STarting to pull my hair out somewhat, i'm sure it's something really simple!

Hello,
You are trying to connect to a named instance. Make sure the SQL Server Browser service is started on the SQL Server computer.
Make sure TCP/IP is enabled.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms191294(v=sql.110).aspx
Try to disable Windows Firewall or security software on both, SQL Server instance and client computer.
Test basic connectivity too. Try to ping from the client computer to the SQL Server computer.
Hope this helps.

Can't add datasource for local SQL Server Express

I can't get new datasource to connect to a local SQL Server Express (2008).
On SSE, I enabled non-NTLM authentication, created an account specifically for CFServer, and was able to log into SQL Server through Management Studio. But the datasource still won't connect.
When I enter computerName/SQLServerName for the Server, I get a message saying "...The requested instance is either invalid or not running."
When I enter just SQLServerName, message says "Error establishing socket. Unknown host: SQLServerName."
When I enter (local), I get a message saying "Error establishing socket. Unknown host: (local)"
When I enter 127.0.0.1, message says "Error establishing socket to host and port: 127.0.0.1:1433. Reason: Connection refused: connect"
I don't know why the first is considered invalid, or why the fourth is refusing connection. Am I forgetting something?

I found the solution, which doesn't have to do with Coldfusion, but rather with configuring SQL Server for TCP/IP. In case someone else ever stumbles upon this post with a similar problem, I wrote about it at http://forums.devshed.com/ms-sql-development-95/trying-to-connect-to-sql-server-on-localho st-1433t-958558.html.

Hi ,
Thanks for your reply.
Contents of my initMYSQLSERVERDSN.ora file is
# This is a sample agent init file that contains the HS parameters that are
# needed for an ODBC Agent.
# HS init parameters
HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO = MYSQLSERVERDSN
HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL = 0
HS_FDS_TRACE_FILE_NAME = hsmsql.trc
# Environment variables required for the non-Oracle system
#set <envvar>=<value>
set ODBCINI=c:\WINDOWS\ODBC.INI
SALIHKM.DOMAIN.COM is my system in which Oracle Test DB is Installed.
SQL Server is in another location.
In Tnsnames i specified ip address.
One more doubt.
I am using 10g Release 2 demo version.
whether it will support Hetrogeneous Services?
How to know whether a database supports HS or not?
Thanks & Regards

Data modeler cannot connect to non-default sql server instance

I've just started using DM, it installed and loaded fine, I got the jdbc drivers v2.0 from MS so that I can reverse engineer a couple of SQL-Server 2005 DB's.
All worked just fine until I tried to connect to a machine with a named-sql-server instance.
Normal way of doing this for sql-server is to add instance name to end of hostname in the hostname field, like this: "server10\inst01"
but this gives me a cannot-connect-to-server10 error.
I copied database over to a different server that has just a default sql-server instance and it worked fine. (both sql-server2005 and 2000!)
I also tried the older 1.2 jdbc driver from MS against the sql-server 2005 named instance, no luck!
I tried putting the instance name in front of the port number, that didn't work either.
Am I just doing something wrong? or does DM need a special way of specifying the instance name on the sql-server host?

Hello,
you don't need instance name in order to connect. It's only host and port - probably named instance is not listening on default port. It'll be unfortunate if dynamic port assignment is used - but probably that won't be the case.
I hope someone can tell you the port number.

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?

Moderators,
Can anyone merge this -

Connect Oracle 9i to SQL Server: platform incompatibility

Hi,
we want to connect an Oracle 9.2.0.4.0 - 64bit Production to a SQL Server.
The Oracle DB is on a HP-UX Itanium 64bits machine.
The SQL Server is on a WIN2000 machine.
Our first choice to get them connected was an ODBC and HS.
However, as far as we know, there is not HS for our platforms combination.
We have also tried to use another Oracle BD in a WIN machine as a middle tier.
Single queries work fine, but advance plsql blocks render in several errors (some due to db version, others to the way the oracle manager works)... so this solution also fails.
We have read about Transparent Gateway. But since it uses HS, we are not sure our platform combination is supported. Moreover, on the whitepaper is said "stored procedures are not supported", which it is a hard backdraw.
Any suggestion or workaround?
Thanks in advance!
Alberto.

You can use TG4MSQL, the Gateway to SQL Server.
The big advantage of the gateways is: they are independant from an Oracle db.
This means, you can run an Oracle DB on machine A, have the gateway installed on machine B and run the foreign database on a 3rd machine!
The TG4MSQL is only available for Windows based 32bit platforms, so in your case you can install the gateway on the SQL Server machine or -if you don't have access to it- on a 3rd machine running MS Windows operating system.

Connecting Oracle(64bit) to SQL Server(32bit) with heterogeneous serv ODBC

Hi,
We are planing the migration of 32bit Oracle 9.2.0.8 (MS Windows Server 2003 EE SP1) to 64 bit Oracle 10.2.0.4 (MS Windows Server 2003 Standard x64 Edition SP2).
We have tested the migration using export/import procedure, and everything passed ok.
The problem is because the database we are planning to migrate (32bit) using Oracles heterogeneous Services ODBC agent in connection to 32 bit SQL Server 2000. When we have tried to implement that on 64bit 10.2.0.4 oracle we always get the message:
ORA-28545: error diagnosed by Net8 when connecting to an agent
Unable to retrieve text of NETWORK/NCR message 65535
Then we looked up the metalink and find the document: Is Generic Connectivity Available On Linux Or Windows 64-bit Platforms ? [*ID 361676.1*]
Is there any way to make the connection between 64bit Oracle 10.2.0.4 and 32bit SQL Server using system DSN within the Windows ODBC Data Sources with choosing the SQL Server driver?
The option with Database Gateway for ODBC (DG4ODBC) isn't free.
Thanks

Hi everyone
As far as I am aware, you need to install the Discoverer EUL into an Oracle database and then use an ODBC connection to SQL Server. This is because Discoverer has hooks into the Oracle database and is looking for features that only exist in an Oracle database. If you are using an Infrastructure, which is mandatory when using 4i, you can use that database to store your EUL using an ODBC connection over to SQL Server.
I hope this helps
Best wishes
