Cannot connect Remotely for SQL Server 2008

Hi,
I have SQL Server 2008 installed and configured as server locally. So when I try to connect using same machine with IP address it works but when I try to connect through any other computer through internet, it does not work and gives the following error.
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) (Microsoft SQL Server,
Error: 53 )
please note that:
- I have amended Internet Protocol version 4 (TCP/IPv4) properties with my current IP address, subnet mask, default gateway and all Sky(ISP) preferred/alternate DNS Server names.
- SQL server configuration manager shows that TCP/IP is enabled and it is on 1433 port.
- SQL, SQL Browser exe and SQL server windows NT is ON for firewall's Port, Domain and public.
- Router is added with outbound services and Inbound services for SQL port 1433 and SQL browser 1434.
- SQL server instance is enabled for remote connections.
Kindly help, I am almost there and do not want to give up. Thanks in advance.

I cannot connect to Microsoft SQL Server 2008

I am getting a cannot load when I am trying to download SQL Server 2008.

Hi,
>>1)Can you look into the application log in the eventvwr for a detailed error message and post it here
Where should I look into?
Go to All programs-->Microsoft SQL Server-->configuration Tools-->Sql Server configuration manager-->SQL Server services in the left pane-->right click SQL Server -->
start..you can also see properties where in you can see Log on as tab.
In my machine i have only default instance..Based on the instances running in your machine you can see services running accordingly in here
You already told your SQL Server service is not starting..now you have tried again to start the services and the error would have been logged in the eventvwr.
Start-->cmd-->eventvwr-->Windows Logs-->application-->You can see the errors logged at the time when you tried to start SQL Server on why SQl Server was not able to start on the right side pane.
Please go through that and post those error messages in here. Since you are using it after long time there might be chances you moved your master DB's mdf and ldf files to someother location. Without master DB coming up, your instance will not come up.
Thanks

Connection pooling with SQL Server 2008 and Tomcat 6.0

Hello Everybody,
I'm creating a web application using struts 2.0 , tomcat 6.0 and sql server 2008.
Everything works fine but i'm unable to create connection pooling with sql server 2008.Please help me to solve this issue.
Code for this is as foolows:
in my META-INF/context.xml
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<Context path="/spas" docBase="spas"
debug="5" reloadable="true" crossContext="true">
<Resource
name="jdbc/spas_new"

maxIdle="10"
maxWait="-1"
user="spas_user"
password="spas123"
driverClassName="com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver"
url="jdbc:sqlserver://HGL-0053\dbo:1433;databaseName=spas_new;responseBuffering=adaptive;"/>
</Context>
in my web.xml
<resource-ref>

<res-ref-name>jdbc/spas_new</res-ref-name>
<res-type>javax.sql.DataSource</res-type>
<res-auth>Container</res-auth>
</resource-ref>
and in my ConnectionThread.java file i've used:
Context ctx = new InitialContext();
if(ctx == null )
throw new Exception("Sorry! No Context Exception");
DataSource ds = (DataSource)ctx.lookup("java:/comp/env/jdbc/spas_new");
System.out.println("ds:"+ds);
conn=ds.getConnection();

Hi Karthikeyan,
This is not the issue at all. I can open the management studio by the same login id and password and also i can make the database jdbc connection from plain java file.
It does not give me any problem by them.
I'm unable to find the actual problem. May be i'm missing something in connection pooling.
Please help.

How to access the datasource window in SSRS for sql server 2008 R2 for writing my query without having to go through the wizard?

I have used SSRS a lot years ago with Sql Server 2000 and Sql Server 2005. I have written external assemblies, ... But now I have to do this with Sql Server 2008 (R2 -- which I realize I am way behind the times already but ...) in sql server 2000 and
2005 there was a tab for datasource to the left of the tab for design which was to the left of the preview tab. How do I get to the datasource window in sql server 2008 (r2) ?
I see that datasource explorer. But where can I get to the datasource window to edit my queries and so forth for sql server 2008 (R2)?
Thanks
Rich P

I think I found the answer to my question --- just right-click on the the Data Sources or Datasets for editing connections and dataset queries. I'm guessing it gets even fancier with Sql Svr 2012 - 2014. Man, that's the one thing
about coding platforms -- you let it go for a few years and come back, and everything has changed (well, a lot of things). Now I need to figure out how to add an external assembly to SSRS 2008 (R2).

SQL Developer Data Modeler for SQL Server 2008

I am not able to connect to my SQL Server 2008 from the SQL Developer Data Modeler. Although I do have jtds-1.2.jar on my machine and I can connect the SQL server through the SQL Developer, but still i'm not able to connect through the data modeler. I need to re-engineer and generate data model for some existing schemas.
Here is what I'm following:-
File->Data Modeler -> import -> Data Dictionary -> Add new connection -> JDBC ODBC Bridge -> Other Third Party Driver
now when I'm giving the JDBC URL and the Driver, It throws an error message stating that the driver could not be found.
Please let me know what I can do to solve this, any help would be appreciated.
Regards,
AVA

I'd try 1st to connect to the db from sqldeveloper (through jtds - no ODBC involved) and see if you can browse your db and issue sql statements in a worksheet. Then export that connection in xml format and import that from the modeler.

SQL Server Usage Summary page, the count of user/device: does not show for SQL Server 2008

Does MAP tool capture User Summary (count of users, their details) for SQL Server 2008?
At my end, its working for SQL Server 2012 but not showing User Summary for SQL Server 2008..
Does the User Summary only works for SQL Server 2008 Enterprise edition as one of the thread points out?

This is from the
Wiki article:
SQL Server 2008 Enterprise and Datacenter Editions introduced audit event configuration for Windows security logging, which enabled SQL Server 2008 to log logon events to the Windows Security log. The table below shows which versions and editions have the Audit
feature that is needed to record the logon events. MAP cannot obtain user and device access information for any other editions or any older versions of SQL Server.

Failure - Cannot connect to Microsoft SQL Server on localhost

Hi!
I have a sqlserver installation on localhost and I want to connect with sqldeveloper.
I fill connection name, username, password, hostname: localhost port: 1433
and then click on retrieve database.
I get the following error message: "Status: Failure - Cannot connect to Microsoft
SQL Server on localhost"
I don't know the reason. I can use another connection to another ms sql server
and it's no problem, but can't connect to localhost.
I have special signs in my computername, for example a "-". Is this the problem?
How can I solve it?
Thank you
Andreas

I am able to successfully connect to my local SQLEXPRESS instance using the following settings:
Hostname: localhost
Port: 1433/DBName;instance=SQLEXPRESS
Even though I use this to connect, I cannot open a tcp connection to port 1433 via telnet. I believe this goes hand in hand with specifying the instance. As I understand it, there are two ways to specify the port, one is directly, the other is through a named instance (another port is used as a service to look up the correct port). SQL Server 2005 appears to prefer named instances instead of specific ports. When "instance" is specified, the port can actually be any number, the driver apparently ignores it.
The Retrieve database (list) appears to be only for informational purposes. I have to specify the database in the Port field (DBName) regardless of what I have selected in this list.
Hope this helps!
PS: Retrieve database will give that error until instance is specified in my case.

I have installed Cumulative Update 12 for SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2 on my SharePoint instances. This was to resolve a known issue faced with the instance. CU12 helped resolve the issue. My company is rather strict regarding security hotfixes. But I am
not sure if this particular hotfix [Security Hotfix (KB2977319)] is required if the instance has CU12 applied.
Tested this on a Lab server, the installation did run fine, the summary log also stated that the KB is applied. But the Build Number did not change. Hence the doubt.

Yes you must install Security update mentioned in KB 2977319 it is important for SQL Server to be patches with this security update. Without this it could allow an attacker to compromise your system and gain control over it.

Issue while connecting to MS SQL Server 2008

Hi everyone,
I have not seen any thread that gives me a clue to my problem.
I have OBIEE 10.1.3.4.0 on Windows.
I have created an ODBC3.5 Datasource to a SQL Server 2008 and the test connection is successful.
I have also imported the tables from the SQL Server 2008 into the Physical Layer of the OBIEE Administration tool. However after check-in, my problem begins trying to do an Update Row Count with the following Error message:
NQODBCSQL_STATE: HY000nQSError: 10058 A general error has occurred.
nQSError: 43093 An error occured while processingthe EXECUTE PHYSICAL statement.
nQSError: 16023 The ODBC function has returned an error. The database may not be available, or the network may be down.
Any suggestion or pointer will be greatly appreciated.

Reading your post Issue in connecting to MS SQL Server 2008 I guess this thread here can be closed.
Cheers,
C.

Hi,
Thanks for the translation.
You say you are having a hard time exporting my database Primavera P6 Project Management for SQL Server 2008. Could you give details of exactly what you are using for the export and what problems you are having ?
Is this an export from an Oracle database or a SQL*Server 2008 database ?
Regards,
Mike

Any idea??

Karl,
Perhaps the TNSNAMES.ORA entry (on your database server) needs a domain suffix (eg TG_SQL_SERVER_S0168SS0068.mycompany.com = )
This Generic Connectivity 4 MS ACCESS on host A and ORACLE 9I on host B.. explains some of the topography.

Help! Licence for SQL Server 2008 VM on Windows 2012

I am confused by latest Microsoft Virtual server licence for SQL Server 2008.
We have a Hyper-V host running Windows Server 2012 R2 Datacenter. Displayed in its Task Manager, it has 16 cores and 32 logical processors (with hyper-threading turned on). A SQL Server VM is running on this host with 10 Virtual processors (showing from Hper-V
Manager). The SQL Server edition is SQL Server 2008 Standard.
We are using "Per Core Licensing Model". Now, the question is how many licences we need to purchase for the above SQL Server?
There are "SQL Server 2008 Licensing Guide", "Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Virtualization Licensing Guide" and "Microsoft SQL Server 2014 Licensing Guide". But none of them covers this scenario, which is running SQL Server 2008 on
Windows 2012 Hyper-V host Server.
Could you please provide me your opinion: Should I license 10 cores for the SQL Server VM or license 5 cores (because the hyper-threading on physical server) ? Thank you very much in advance!
