Connect to Azure SQL DB with Security Enabled Access required using SSMS

I'm looking to connect to an Azure SQL DB with Security Enabled Access required using SQL Server Management Studio 2014. I have tried checking off "Encrypt connection", but still errors out with "Cannot open database 'db name' on server 'hostname'
requested by the login. Access to the database is only allowed using a security-enabled connection string."
Thanks,
Scott

Hi Scott,
Sorry, I missunderstood your initial question and the documentation I referenced is not updated appropriately. You have to change the connection string to <server-name>.database.secure.windows.net when you enable the security/auditing features.
Documentation for this can be found
here
Thanks,
Jan

DB SCHEMA INFO error when connecting to AZURE SQL through OLE DB

Created a virtual machine in Azure and connected to Azure SQL server. I have been able to access the Azure SQL server through 2014 SQL Server Management Studio.
I have connected my program to the Azure SQL through a OLE DB connection. I am able to connect and create a new database through this connection, however when I try to connect to the newly created database, i get the following error:
Error creating connection: Not a Market(our product) database: Invalid object name 'db_schema_info'.
I am not sure what is going on and why this error is showing up. Is it because of the OLE DB connection? The fact that the login mysql.database.windows.net has periods and a login login@mysql? I have had issues with punctuation in the past when connecting
through OLE DB. Please help me to either find the right code or another work around option.
I can connect my program to a local SQL server hosted on the VM the same process as above without any issues. This is not a viable option as I need to connect multiple VMs to the same SQL server.

Hi,
Thanks for posting here.
Connecting to Microsoft Azure SQL Database by using OLE DB or ADO is not supported on SQL Azure.
Ref: http://www.connectionstrings.com/sql-azure/
Microsoft does not announce support for OLE DB connections to Azure and there are limitations. Some required OLE DB schema rowsets are not available from an Azure connection, and some properties that identify features in SQL Server are not adjusted to represent
SQL Azure limitations. For most common connect/query/update tasks it seems to work fine.
Provider=SQLNCLI11;Password=myPassword;User ID=[username]@[servername];

Can No Longer Connect to Azure SQL Databases

As of this morning, I am no longer to connect to any of my Azure SQL databases by any (apparent) means. I checked the configuration in the azure portal and my IP address is listed as an allowed IP, however:
I am unable to connect via SQL Server Management Studio
My request times out when attempting to visit https://{server_name}.database.windows.net
What might have caused this?

Hi ,
Thanks for posting here.
To resolve the issue you can try the following steps (in that order):
                Check the application’s connection string to make sure that it is correctly configured. For example, make sure that the connection string specifies the correct port
(1433) and the fully qualified server name.
Note You can follow these steps to obtain the connection string from the Azure Management Portal:
                      Log on to the
Azure Management Portal.
                      In the left navigation pane, click
SQL Databases.
                      Select your Azure SQL Database server.
                      Click
Dashboard.
                      On the right side, go to the
quick glance section, and then click Show connection strings.
                Make sure that TCP IP is enabled as a client protocol on the application server. For more information on how to do this, see
Configure client protocols. On application servers where you do not have SQL Server tools installed, you can check this by running cliconfg.exe (SQL Server Client Network Utility).
                Test the connectivity between the application server and the Azure SQL database by using a UDL file, ping, and telnet. For more information about how to do this,
see
Azure SQL Database connectivity troubleshooting guide and
Troubleshooting SQL Server connectivity issues.
Note As a troubleshooting step, you can also try to test the connectivity on a different client computer.
                Try increasing the connection
timeout. Microsoft recommends using a connection timeout of at least 30 seconds.
                As a best practice ensure retry logic is in place. For more information about the retry logic, see
Azure SQL Database best practices to prevent request denials or connection termination.
              If the previous steps do not resolve your problem, follow these steps to collect more data and contact support:
                  If your application is a cloud service, enable the logging. This step returns a UTC time stamp of the failure. Additionally, SQL Azure returns the tracing
ID.
Microsoft Customer Support Services can use this information.
                  For more information about how to enable the logging, see

Cannot Connect to Azure SQL Database in Visual Studio 2013

Beyond Frustrated here.
I am trying to connect to an Azure SQL database - it has been created, has tables etc. I am trying to create a new Data Connection from within Visual Studio 2013, latest release for VS and Azure. I continue to receive 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)
I have ensured that TCP is allowed and above Named Pipes in the Configuration Manager. The associated IP address is allowed on Azure Firewall. Certificate has been added to VS etc. But still no connection. I can see the database in the Azure section in Server
Explorer, but cannot add a Data Connection. What is equally as frustrating is I have a MacBook Pro running Win 7 sitting right next to my office computer and it can access Azure fine, not problems.
If anyone has any other ideas on how I might be able to solve this I would love to hear them. Thanks in advance.

How to connect to Azure SQL database remotely (SharePoint 2013 BI)

Hi,
I am new to using Azure VM's and I am looking for advice. I have created and can connect to an Azure VM with a SQL Server 2012 installed on it (includes SSAS and SSRS). I connect to the VM using Microsoft Remote Desktop Connection.
The problem I am having is connecting to the Azure database from a SharePoint BI site. Are there any good videos or websites that demonstrate how to setup an Azure VM so a user can access a database remotely.
I hope you can help.
ATaylor

Hello,
To connect to the SQL Server Database from another computer, you must know the Domain Name System (DNS) name of the Azure virtual machine. For example: DNSName,portnumber such as SQLVM.cloudapp.net,57500.
(Note: The port number is the public endpoint port which you can configure in the management portal for TCP communication with SQL Server on Azure VM.)
As for datasource credentials, you can use a SQL Server authentication login: create a SQL Server login with password on the SQL Server instance.

Connect to Azure Sql DB through WCF Data Service

I am following the tutorial:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windowsazure/ee621789.aspx;
Connect to Windows Azure SQL Database Through WCF Data service on a
Windows 8 machine running VS2013. Until starting this tutorial, I have only been using VS for WPF applications. So it might not be properly configured for a web app.
Everything works just fine until I get to the section on Creating the Client Application. Clicking the Discover button populates the services pane with my service. When I click on the service in the pane I get the following Add Service Reference
Error:
There was an error downloading 'http://localhost:62778/testDataService.svc/_vti_bin/ListData.svc/$metadata'.
The request failed with the error message: --- , . . .
If I ignore it and click OK it essentially tells me the same thing:
"There was an error downloading metadata from the address. Please verify that you have entered a valid address."
I am thinking that there is a configuration issue on my machine. Perhaps something needs to be installed or running, . . .
I have tried doing the same steps with a local SqlExpress database, and get the same problem. If I try to go directly to the website via the browser:
http://localhost:62778/testDataService.svc
I get a Request Error.
Any suggestions, thoughts on this will be greatly appreciated!
Robotuner

Hi,
From the error message "There was an error downloading 'http://localhost:62778/testDataService.svc/_vti_bin/ListData.svc/$metadata'.", I suspect that you created a folder named _vti_bin, and created wcf data service named ListData, in my test
application, from my experience, you issue may be caused by "$metadata", can you give further information to me, there was a
wcf data service quick start, hope this will help you.

Connecting to Azure Virtual Machine with local SSMS

There is a lot of info out there about this and how to troubleshoot. I am still not able to do this. When I try to connect on port 1433 I get a "filtered" response (no connection).
I have verified all the setup and had someone else also verify it.
I have a Server 2012 VM that I installed SQL on myself (SQL Server 2012 Standard)
By the way, I can RDP just fine, I can do a Web Publish just fine. It is just being about to connect SSMS that I am having issues with.
Confirmed according to several online resources including MS Azure docs.:
1) Azure Endpoint is set up 1433
2) Firewall on the VM has an inbound rule for 1433. ** Note, I even tried to connect with the VM firewall turned off.
3) SQL Server network configuration is set up correctly (listening on port 1433 is confirmed)
4) SQL server is set to mix mode authentication
5) I can connect locally on the VM with SSMS using a the same SQL account.
6) SQL Server has "Allow remote connections to this server" turned on.
I have tried to connect from 2 different local networks. Both of these have access to multiple other VM's (not Azure) and connect fine. It is not my local firewalls blocking this. It is not the VM firewall (turned it off!), so my only guess
is that it is the Azure Endpoint.
I did find references to Azure blocking 1433, but that seems to have been reversed. I did try a different public port and that did not help.
Again, I have found several different help guides for this, every detail I have checked seems to be set up correctly.
Any thoughts?

Update as promised.
I just went ahead and created a new VM. All is good!!!!
Server 2012 (Datacenter)
Downloaded and installed SQL Server 2012 Standard (Basic install only need the DB engine)
Configured for mixed mode, etc. (I did not need to change anything after the install was done)
Opened endpoints and VM firewall ports
Tested and worked as expected
Then went ahead and installed IIS, Web Deploy and updates.
All is working as expected. Not sure what I messed up the first go around.
If anyone comes across this and the docs don't help, just try to set up a new VM (either SQL or Server and install SQL).

Server errors result in blank pages with security enabled

I have been working to security-enable my ADF 11 application using JDeveloper 11.1.1.0.0. Users, roles and grants all appear to be working as expected. However, I have discovered that server errors no longer appear once I put security in place.
For example, take a simple JSPX page with one button, and attach an actionListener to the button. In the actionListener, throw an exception. When no ADF security is in place, this results in a 500 server error page, and the exception stack trace (or part of it) is written to the Weblogic console inside JDeveloper. Once ADF security is in place, the behavior changes. The result is a blank page (absolutely no content). Even worse, the exception stack trace is no longer written to the Weblogic console.
I have tried to work around this by setting an <error-page> in web.xml, but it doesn't seem to make a difference. I do know that my <error-page> configuration works in general, because I have a "not authorized" error page set up to catch the ADF AuthorizationException, and that is displayed properly. I have also seen the error page invoked for errors that happen earlier in the rendering process (for instance, if I forget to set a default page in my bounded task flow).
I don't have any idea where to start on this. Google hasn't been much help, possibly I don't know what I'm looking for.
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks,
KEN

We have found a solution to this problem, which we are going to go with until something better pops up.
In the main unbounded task flow (adfc-config), we added a method call marked as the error-handler. In the method call, we log the exception, something like this:
    public void handleException() {
        Exception e = ControllerContextImpl.getInstance().getCurrentViewPort().getExceptionData();
        e.printStackTrace(System.err);
    }Then, the method call forwards to a JSP to display the error:
<af:inputText label="Error" value="#{controllerContext.currentViewPort.exceptionData.message}"/>That gets us the equivalent of the old behavior.
I still find it kind of strange that errors aren't displayed once security is enabled, but at least there is a workaround.

Hi Affar2k,
According to your description, we need to verify if there is no network issue and the Sqlclient version is older than .NET 4.5. You can try to connect to the Windows Azure SQL database via SSMS and check if it can run well. When you
connect to the SQL Azure database via ADO.NET, you need to verify that the server name and passwords are right in the connection string.
For more information, you can review the following article about how to connect to Windows Azure SQL Database using ADO.NET.

Connecting to Azure SQL database in Access 2010

I've recently purchased a new computer and I had an OBDC connection set up to link to a sql database in azure through access. I am trying to set it up on my new computer but I'm unable to define the specific database. I'm able to make the connection but
it only allows me into the master database. I've added my IP address in the configure servers but still can't get things to work. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
thanks
Lynn

Hi,
The following guidelines apply to SQL Database connections using ODBC:
• When using SQL Server Native Client from SQL Server 2008 R2 or SQL Server 2008, the connection string must include the server name as part of the user name (user@server).
• You must use TCP/IP as the protocol when connecting to an Azure SQL Database.
• You cannot create a table in the master database, so therefore you must create a user database to create a table.
• You cannot execute a use database command to switch to your user database. You must disconnect and connect directly to the user database.
• You must have a primary key or clustered index on your table to be able to insert data.

SQL Query with Security

Hi,
has anybody work on a query on docmeta and revision table that can share with me
(some examlpe). This query must have security enabled so that users can view
only documents that have the right to see. Also that there is a security groups
and accounts enabled.
Thanx in advanced..........

It will be better idea to sort the last_name list prior to
passing to the query by using ListSort() function. And then use
order by in the query. This will give you the sorted order in which
you have passed to the query. So basically you will be sending a
sorted list and will be getting back a sorted list as well.
Thanks

Unable to connect to 5ghz network band with security/password

Hi, I've recently set up a 5ghz network band on my router. The problem is I can't connect to it while it has password enabled. However, I am able to connect while it has no security/password. I would like to connect to the router using some kind of security or password
I am using a Netgear Router WNDR3400v2.

You need to contact Netgear for support, it's their router they would probably know how to support it best.

How to use PL/SQL procs with portlet enabled CA's?

I have written some PL/SQL procedures in a package.
Now I would like to use this in a FOLDER-portlet (a new CA created for this purpose).
But when I select the 'Open Item In Folder' (which should show the PL/SQL procedure results in the portlet I hope) I get:
Call to utl_http failed (WWS-32136)
ORA-1: User-Defined Exception (WWC-36000)
If instead the option 'Open in new browser window' (or something like that) I get no error.
My CA calls the PL/SQL pkg using a URL item like this:
http://myserver/pls/dad/schema.package.procedure?p_arg=...
It works entered directly in the address bar and if the item opens in a new window.
But I want it to display in the SAME portlet as the link I click on.
How is this done?

JDBC (and SQLJ) only support SQL types as stored procedure arguments, not PL/SQL types.
If your stored procedure uses a PL/SQL-only type, such as BOOLEAN, record types, or index-by tables, then you cannot call it from Java (or, for that matter, from other languages as well).
There is one exception: scalar index-by table arguments have been supported since JDBC 8.1.7 in the JDBC-OCI driver (refer to the JDBC manual for specifics).
One workaround is to create wrapper PL/SQL stored procedures that take SQL arguments and convert them to PL/SQL -and vice versa- and call the original PL/SQL stored procedures. For example, a record type could be exploded into individual arguments, or it could be converted into a SQL object type, index-by tables could be represented as SQL collection types, etc.
You can find a small example of this in the back of the JPublisher manual, where an example is given how to call a PL/SQL stored procedure that takes BOOLEAN arguments.

Unable to call WSS (WS-Security) enabled Web Service using UTL_DBWS

We are attempting to call a WSS (WS-Security) enabled Web Service from PL/SQL using the UTL_DBWS package (see [http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/appdev.102/b14258/u_dbws.htm#CHDIDGJH] ). We are doing this in similar fashion to [http://www.oracle-base.com/articles/10g/utl_dbws10g.php] with calls to utl_dbws.create_service, utl_dbws.create_call and utl_dbws.invoke.
Using this method we can successfully call an unsecured Web Service, but calls to WSS-enabled Web Services fail. We are currently using Oracle Database 10.2.0.3.
The failure we are getting is:
ORA-29532: Java call terminated by uncaught Java exception: javax.xml.rpc.soap.SOAPFaultException:
com.sun.xml.wss.XWSSecurityException: Message does not conform to configured
policy ( AuthenticationTokenPolicy(S) ): No Security Header found;nested
exception is com.sun.xml.wss.XWSSecurityException:
com.sun.xml.wss.XWSSecurityException: Message does not conform to configured
policy ( AuthenticationTokenPlicy(S) ): No Security Header found
Apparently UTL_DBWS does not support calling WSS enabled services, although this doesn't appear to be an officially recognised position. Does anyone know if Oracle are planning to support this soon (if ever)? Looking at Re: Calling WS from PL/SQL using WS-security suggests that support has been considered before, but not yet realised.
Thanks,
Tom

Having raised a Service Request with Oracle support on this, I got the following response from Oracle Development (On unpublished bug [8542959|https://metalink2.oracle.com/metalink/plsql/ml2_documents.showDocument?p_database_id=BUG&p_id=8542959]):
Development has confirmed that WS-Security is not supported through UTL_DBWS. They have also acknowledged that this is not documented and they will change the official Oracle documentation will reflect this fact. From what is being stated, it would appear that there is no plan to support the use of WS-Security through UTL_DBWS in any release in the near future.
So, in short, without developing your own home-grown SOAP request, there is no way to call a WSS enabled web service from within PL/SQL.

Not able to connect my Iphone to my WRT54GS router with security enabled

As the subject line states, I'm not able to connect my Iphone to my WRT54GS router when the security is enabled. When ever I attempt to connect to my network with my phone it always tells me the password is incorrect. I have double checked the password in the easylink advisor and it matches up. I have also tried both WPA and WEP with the same result, I know that the wireless is working on the router as I turned the security off and was able to connect to it. I updated the firmware this evening also with no changes. If anyone could help me with this issue it would be much appreciated.

First of all, in the router, give your network a unique SSID. Do not use "linksys". If you are using "linksys" you may be trying to connect to your neighbor's router. Also, in the router, set "SSID Broadcast" to "enabled". This will help your iPhone find and lock on to your router's signal.
To connect using WEP, enter WEP "key 1" (found in the router) into the iPhone, not the WEP password or passphrase.
To connect using WPA, make sure that there is not an encryption nomenclature problem. For example, WPA is not the same as WPA with AES. Please note the following:
WPA = PSK = WPA with TKIP = WPA personal
WPA2 = PSK2 = WPA with AES = WPA2 personal
I am not certain, but your iPhone probably does just ordinary WPA (not WPA with AES). Assuming that this is correct, then the router should be set to:
"WPA personal" with "TKIP"
Also, in the iPhone, be sure to delete the entry for your unsecured connection to your router, before you try to input info regarding the secured connection to the router.
Hope this helps.
