Connection failed SQL Server 2008 R2 with Instance Name but with IP connect

Hello,
We have a server where SQL Server 2008 R2 is installed. Now from our local pc we connect to that database. I try to connect that database using instance name but cannot. If I put IP Address in the server name field, then it connect. my other colleague, they
can connect using instance name but I cannot.
How can I resolve this problem? How can I connect using Instance Name?
Please help.

Faisal there are a couple of possibilities for you. Some have been mentioned already. For us to help if you can provide some further information this would be appreciated. In the mean time some things that you can check
If you are able to connect to the instance via Server IP Address then the instance is configured for remote connections and the firewall does allow for remote connections to come through. You can check the SQL Server Configuration Manager on the server to
check what protocols (Named Pipes & TCP/IP are enabled). You can also check that the Browser is running.
What error message do you receive when trying to connect via the ServerName or ServerName\InstanceName remotely?
You could look at creating an entry in your host file with the server name and IP address on you workstation and test this. I am thinking that if a colleague is able to connect remotely via ServerName or ServerName\InstanceName that you potentially have
a caching issue or a DNS issue. Are you able to ping the servername from your workstation and get a valid response from the correct IP address?
I hope this helps.
Thanks

Is DTS supported in SQL server 2008 R2 with Compatibility level 100?

We have a DTS package which executes one stored procedure.
We have recently switched SQL server compatibility level from 80 to 100.
On Compatibility level 80 it was working fine.
When i switched the level to 100, and executes DTS it shows successfully executed but stored procedure doenot really executed.
When i execute stored procedure in query analyzer it executed successfully and results were as expected.
Please let me know Is DTS supported in SQL server 2008 R2 with Compatibility level 100?

We have just implemented DTS packages on SQL2008R2 using the Backward Compatibility Tools (serarch for SQLServer2005_BC.msi)
You need the files:
SQLServer2005_BC.msi or SQLServer2005_BC_x64.msi
and SQLServer2005_DTS.msi
After you install these, perform the following -
1) To integrate DTS Designer with SSMS:
Copy the files SEMSFC.DLL, SQLGUI.DLL, and SQLSVC.DLL
from %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn
to %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE
Copy the files SEMSFC.RLL, SQLGUI.RLL, and SQLSVC.RLL
from %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\Resources\1033
to %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Tools\Binn\VSShell\Common7\IDE\Resources\1033
2) To integrate DTS Designer with BIDS:
Copy the files SEMSFC.DLL, SQLGUI.DLL, and SQLSVC.DLL
from %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn
to %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE
Copy the files SEMSFC.RLL, SQLGUI.RLL, and SQLSVC.RLL
from %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft SQL Server\80\Tools\Binn\Resources\1033
to %ProgramFiles%\Microsoft Visual Studio 9.0\Common7\IDE\Resources\1033

SQL Server 2008 R2 with Tools Evaluation Copy

Hello,
Is the SQL Server 2008 R2 software (SSMS, BIDS) still available for evaluation download? I was only able to find the Express edition, but I cannot open my solutions using Express. I tried to upgrade Express to Evaluation, but I get the below
error.
Rule Check Result
Rule "SQL Server 2008 R2 edition upgrade" failed.
The selected SQL Server instance does not meet upgrade matrix requirements.
OK
Thank you - Brett

Hello,
SQL Server 2008 R2 Evaluation Edition seems no longer available on Microsoft Download as you can see on the following link:
http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=8158
However, if you are a MSDN subscriber you can download the full media of any paid edition of SQL Server 2008 R2, run SQL Server setup and choose Evaluation Edition
on the “Product Key” page of SQL Server setup.
Hope this helps.

Can I recover a damaged SQL Server 2008 database with the undamaged .mdb and .ldf files?

Their original SQL Server was 2008, with SP unknown, but installed on D: and C: drives. The power spike corrupted their O/S on the C:
drive and someone reinstalled both the O/S and the SQL Server, which is now SQL 2008, SP4. They have intact files for all system databases, both .mdb and .ldf. Is there some way they can reconnect with the user databases using the intact copies
of the previous system databases? I have heard that if the SQL Server is stopped, previous Master and Msdb .mdb and .ldf files moved into place and the server restarted, that any previous user database .mdb and .ldf files can be accessed by the SQL server.
Is this the case, or are there details missing?

Hello! try this steps
1 Open your SQL Server Management Studio console. This application shortcut is available in the SQL Server directory in the Windows Start button.
2 Enter the system administrator user name and password. SQL Server's administrator user name is "sa." This account is required for privileges to restore the database. If your restoring on a host provider server, use the administrator user name
and password they supplied for your account.
3 Right-click your database name and select "Attach." In the new window that opens, click the "Add" button to open a dialog box.
4 Select your MDF file and press the "Ok" button. It may take several minutes to restore the database if it is a large file. Once the process is finished, browse your tables to verify the data. The database is now restored.

SQL server management studio - actual instance name ?

Hello,
I work at the environment, where one server has 2 instances. One is productive ,second is used for development. Development instance is sample copy of productive one. Same structure, same tables, views, procedures, only data are valid for actual 3 months
and whole history is only in production.
I dont know to which instance I am connected when typing TSQL queriwes in management studio. Is there any way how to have all the time on my eyes name of instance i am connected on in my query windows ? Or is it possible to set up query windows background
color for specific instance ?
It is confusing, list of DB is same, so mistake will come soon.
Thanks

You might find
this interesting.
You can colour code the status bar at the bottom of your query window depending on which instance it is running. Such as
RED for live and BLUE for backup.
I've used this in the past for training/study.
To set a server status color in Object Explorer
In Object Explorer, select the Connect button and then select Database
Engine….
On the Connect to Server dialog, select Options >>.
Select the Use custom color check box.
To select the color, select the Select… button.
Select either a basic or custom color, then select OK.
Fill in the rest of the connection information, and then select the Connect button.
If this is helpful please mark it so. Also if this solved your problem mark as answer.

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.

in your data flow you use a script transformation component as Source, then define the ouput columns id signed int, Gp unicode string and C unicode string. e.g. Ouput 0 output colmuns
Id - four-byte signed
gp - unicode string
cc - unicode string
Do not use a flat file connection, but use a user variable in which you store the name of the flat file (this could be inside a for each file loop).
The user variable is supplied as a a readonly variable argument to the script component in your dataflow.
In the script component inMain.CreateNewOutputRows use a System.IO.Streamreader with the user variable name to read the file and use the outputbuffer addrow method to add each line to the output of the script component.
Between the ReadLine instraction and the addrow instruction you have to add your code to extract the 3 column values.
public override void CreateNewOutputRows()
Add rows by calling the AddRow method on the member variable named "<Output Name>Buffer".
For example, call MyOutputBuffer.AddRow() if your output was named "MyOutput".
string line;
System.IO.StreamReader file = new System.IO.StreamReader( Variables.CsvFilename);
while ((line = file.ReadLine()) != null)
System.Windows.Forms.MessageBox.Show(line);
if (line.StartsWith("_id,qp,c") != true) //skip header line
Output0Buffer.AddRow();
string[] mydata = Yourlineconversionher(line);
Output0Buffer.Id = Convert.ToInt32(mydata[0]);
Output0Buffer.gp = mydata[1];
Output0Buffer.cc = mydata[2];
file.Close();

How to change the name of the named instance in MS sql server 2008 R2

Hi Gurus
I have installed a SAP ECC 6 ehp4 on MS sql server 2008 R2 with MS windows 2008 R2 OS. While installing sql server i have selected named instance from window(default instance, named instance). and given name QAS.
and installed ECC6 ehp4 ABAP engine successfully. now i want to change the name of mssql server's named instance name to DEV.
kindly let me know
which one is the best and easy solution
1. changing the name of named istance at database level and SAP.
2. or uninstalling the existing SAP, DB and start from scratch.

Upgrating SQL Server 2008 R2 SP2 to SQL Server 2014 Standard "UpgradeFeatureSpecificRules: KJRTMUpgradeBlockRule"

I've been searching for HOURS how to resolve this issue:
I am trying to upgrade SQL Server 2008 R2 (Express Edition with advanced services) to SQL SERVER 2014 Standard edition, my first issue was to update the 2008 R2 to Service pack 2 on the first FEATURE RULE TEST, at this time on it's keep saying this:
======================================================================================
Rule Check Result
Rule "SQL Server 2008 R2 Service pack 2 or later is requered for upgrade.: failed.
This SQL Server 2008 R2 features that have been selected to be upgraded to SQL Server 2014 are not at the require service pack. To continue with this upgrade, install SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 2 or lager to the selected instance and the shared features.
=====================================================================================
This is the Configuration Report issue:
Microsoft SQL Server 2014 - System Configuration Check Report
UpgradeFeatureSpecificRules: SQL Server 2014 Setup configuration checks for rules group 'UpgradeFeatureSpecificRules'
KJRTMUpgradeBlockRule
Checks if the currently selected SQL Server 2008 R2 features to upgrade are at the supported service pack. Failed The SQL Server 2008 R2 features that have been selected to be upgraded to SQL Server 2014 are not at the
required service pack. To continue with this upgrade, install SQL Server 2008 Service Pack 2 or later to the selected instance and the shared features.
====================================================================================
I try after hours and finally did install the Upgrade Advisor and got not issues, the last choice I was to uninstall the Management Studio because in other upgrade express versions got blocked, but in this new version of SQL Server 2014 I don't see any way
out!!!
Thanks.

Hi again
This is the scenario:
-I have installed the SQL SERVER 2008 R2 With Advanced services (version 10.50.1600.1), and now my guest decide to upgrade to an STARNDARD version which nowadays Microsoft is offering the 2014 version.
-As all IT Support and DBA I try to upgrade to SQL 2014 to check and see with requirements were missing or updates. The first check report only ask to upgrade to SQL SERVER 2008 R2 SP2 (version 10.51.2500.0) which I found in the optional update list and
resolved immediately with the Windows Update service.
-Finally, I realise doing the discovery report (suggested in the last post) is that Windows update only download the service pack 2 for SQL Server 2008 instead of the 2008 R2 (I downloaded manually) then the version was upgrade to 10.52.4000.0
Next time I might download the updates manually and not loosing a lot hours with Windows Update, another point very important is that when SQL Server 2008 R2 is installed, create the Microsoft SQL Server 2008 folder at all programas in the Startup menu:
with the SQL Server Installation Center, but there is not one R2, when you execute this one just show the 2008 installed features.
Now we are on 12.0.2000.8
Thanks anyway and all of you for your interest!!!

SSIS Package developed in SQL Server 2008 R2 Using BIDS 2008 is not working in SQL Server 2012

I am working in a Product based company.
We have given a Pre-requisites to our customers like SQL Server version should be 2008 or later.
I have developed and deployed my SSIS package in SQL Server 2008 R2 with BIDS 2008.
I have used "Script Component" in my package.
We will take only DTSX package file to the customer places and run using SQL Agent Job daily.
Who are all(Customer Environments) using SQL 2008 or R2 my package is running fine.
Who are all(Customer Environments) using SQL 2012, I am facing the below issue
The component metadata for “Script Component, clsid {874F7595-FB5F-4OFF-9BAF-FBFF825OE3EF}” could not be upgraded to the newer version of the component. The PerformUpgrade method failed.
Still the same package is running fine for some of the customers having SQL 2012.
I am getting the above error only for few customers.
Can someone please guide me how to proceed on this. Is there any solution to go without upgrading the package to SQL 2012. Because we need to maintain only one package for all customers

Hi Katherine,
I am just using the script component only for generating Identity column purpose. I will get the maximum count from the table and using this count value as Input (JurisCount in my below code) for script component and increment the counter for new records.
Finally I am mapping the Script component output value (JurisKey in my below code) to Key column of the table. That's all I am doing with Script Component.
Here is my Simple .net code
/* Microsoft SQL Server Integration Services Script Component
* Write scripts using Microsoft Visual C# 2008.
* ScriptMain is the entry point class of the script.*/
using System;
using System.Data;
using Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.Wrapper;
using Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime.Wrapper;
[Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Pipeline.SSISScriptComponentEntryPointAttribute]
public class ScriptMain : UserComponent
public override void PreExecute()
base.PreExecute();
Add your code here for preprocessing or remove if not needed
public override void PostExecute()
base.PostExecute();
Add your code here for postprocessing or remove if not needed
You can set read/write variables here, for example:
Variables.MyIntVar = 100
int counter = 0;
public override void Input0_ProcessInputRow(Input0Buffer Row)
if (counter == 0)
counter = Convert.ToInt32(Row.JurisCount);
Row.JurisKey = counter;
counter = counter + 1;
