Creating connection to SQl Server

I'm trying to establish a connection to sql server. I have set the third party JDBC drivers to point to jtds-1.2.jar. When I try and create a new connection I get Status : Failure -I/O Error: SSo Failed : Native SSPI library not loaded. Check the java.library.path system property.
Any ideas on what I need to do to fix this?
Thanks
Steve

We got the same error message with the current version of SQL Developer 1.1.3 and the early adaptor version of SQL Developer Migration Workbench on Windows
The solution we found on the net (http://www.nabble.com/MSSQL-JDBC-driver-t361081.html) was
According to the README.SSO file in the JDTD installation you must have the ntlmauth.dll file in your PATH.
Make sure that you do, or try to set the java.library.path system property to the directory containing this
file, that is <jtds-dir>/SSO

Ron,
Try following this document
http://otn.oracle.com/products/jdev/howtos/bc4j/bc_psqlserverwalkthrough.html
from the how-tos archive.
Also, try to change the compiler encoding to UTF-8. you do this in the project setting window.

Unable to establishing a connection to SQL Server created via SqlManagementClient

Goal:
create an Azure SQL Server via .NET (Microsoft.WindowsAzure.Management.Sql.Modules.SqlManagementClient) and add a database to it.
Problem:
I am NOT able to access the newly created server from .Net code.
Description:

Can't Create a Data Source - Failed to test connection. [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access denied

Hi there,
I am having a serious issue with The Power BI Data Management Gateway which I am hoping that someone can help me with.
Basically I am setting a connection between a Power BI demo site and a SQL 2012 Database based on Azure. The Data Management Gateway and is up and running, and Power BI has managed to connect to it successfuly.
By following the tutorials at
here I was able to successful create my Data Connection Gateway with a self-signed certificate.
However, when trying to create the data source I come into problems. The Data Source Manager manages to successfully resolve the hostname, as per the screenshot below:
Bear in mind that I exposed the require ports in Azure as endpoints and I managed to modify my hosts file on my local machine so I could access the SQL server hosted in Azure using its internal name -- otherwise I would not be able to get this far.
However the creation of the data source also fails when trying to created it whilst logged in the SQL server in question:
The Data Source Manager returns the error when using the Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server:
Failed to test connection. [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access denied
I tried using the SQL Server Native Client 11.0 instead but I also get an error. This time the error is:
Failed to test connection. Login timeout expiredA network-related or instance-specific error has occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. Server is not found or not accessible. Check if instance name is correct and if SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. For more information see SQL Server Books Online.Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server [53].
Some considerations
If I provide an invalid username/password, the Data Source Manager does say that the username and password is incorrect.
Firewall is turned off in the SQL Server (either way, this error also happens if I try top use the Data Source Manager whilst logged in the SQL Server itself).
SQL Profiler does not show any attempt of connection.
The SQL server instance in question is the default one.
The error happens regardless if I select the option to encrypt connection or not.
In SQL Configuration manager I can see that all protocols are enabled (TCP/IP, Named Pipes and Shared Memory.
The Event Viewer does not provide any further errors than the one I have copied in this post.
I'm at a loss here. Could someone please advise what might I be doing wrong?
Regards,
P.

Here is what I had to do to solve this issue:
Basically I had to add the MSSQL TCP/IP port as an end-point in Azure. After I did that, then I was able to create the data-source. However, I was only able to authenticate with a SQL account, as any domain account would return me an error saying that the
domain isn't trusted.
What puzzles me here is how come the Data Source Manager would inform me that an account username/password was invalid, but it would fail/timeout if I provided valid credentials (!?!?!!?)

How to create a DSN-less connection to SQL Server for linked tables in Access

hey
i cant understand how i use that Function
if that information what you need

how will be that Function??
please write that Function to me

Some times on Tomcat start up it creates SSL error while JDBC connection to SQL server

We are using Apache Tomcat 6 and SQL server 2008 on production. In the application in ServletContextListner we make DB connection to read some property from DB. When we restart the Tomcat 6.0 in that case sometimes it does not gets DB connection till 5 to
10 minutes. It does not happen every time. We are using JNDI for getting the Datasource objectand using SQL JDBC 3.0 driver. We get following error in log

So, you've got a network error.. Check your physical layer.

Creating ODBC Connections to SQL Server

I have posted a Question to two Forums about a problem I'm having connecting to SQL Server using an ODBC Connection. Suddenly we can connect using on the IP Address of the virtual server not its name. So we can connect using 192.168.16.122\GEMSQLSRVR
but not GEM-SERVER\GEMSQLSRVR. Where should I be asking the question?

Seems you have a name resolution problem. You could try them here for SQL

or depending on you OS

I'd recommend that you not use the JDBC-ODBC bridge driver to connect to SQL Server. M$ and jTDS are two free type IV JDBC drivers that you should use instead. Put those JARs in the WEB-INF/lib directory.
The database URL you're using is not correct if you change drivers. Consult the docs to find out what the proper syntax is.

Azure Webjobs with EF DB - A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server

Hi,
I have been trying to get a very simple WebJob developed and deployed onto Azure with little to no luck. I have a MVC Website which has a common project which handles my Data Access Layer with Entity Framework. I have created a WebJob project
using Visual Studio and added the following lines of code to the Manual Trigger Function

When i test locally (F5 Debugging) the webjob runs successfully and does the loop of the objects returned from the database. When i deploy this Azure the WebJob fails with the following error:

If i remove any of my database code and use just the basic Stub code my webjob will run successfully so i know that my connection strings (outside of the DB ones) are correct. My MVC web application also runs perfectly using the same connection strings
in Azure so i also know that they have also been configured.
I am now lost and need some guidance, so if someone is able to assist me that would be much appreciated.
Thanks
Ritual.

Can you try to log the connection string you are using in both cases to make sure they are the same?
Also can you share your site name, either directly or indirectly?
This will help us investigate.
Thanks,

How to create a .mdf SQL Server database from a Data-Tier Application file that has data?

This is a noob question, though I do use SQL Server databases all the time with Entity Framework when I code in C# using Visual Studio 2013. The development environment is found below at [A]. I am trying to make a clone of a SQL Server 2008 R2
database (.mdf) that exists online. I can read, connect and work with this database in Visual Studio 2013, but I wish to make a local copy of the database, as an .MDF file. Somewhere in my notes I have a way of creating a local copy from
an online database when using Visual Studio but I forgot how (it seems, reviewing my notes, that it deals with ADO.NET which is deprecated in Visual Studio 2013 these days, or so it seems). So I'm looking for another way. What I did was create
(or export) a "Data-Tier Application File" from the online SQL Server database, with data, and it seems to have worked in that this Data-Tier Application file exists on my hard drive and seems to have data in it ("SQL Server Replication Snapshot"
is the format it seems). It contains skeleton code to create a database, but when I tried to execute it with SQL Server 2014 Management Studio, I got a bunch of errors.
So my question is:
1) Can I somehow create a .MDF SQL Server Database from an Data-Tier Application file that has data? What tool do I use? I saw this link, http://social.technet.microsoft.com/wiki/contents/articles/2639.how-to-use-data-tier-application-import-and-export-with-a-windows-azure-sql-database.aspx
and it relates to Azure, but is there a tool for C#Visual Studio 2013, standalone?
2) If there's an easy way to create a .mdf SQL Server Database file from an online file, within SQL Server Management Studio? I don't think so, since it would require Administrator permissions on the online server, which I don't have. I have permission
to read, update, delete the online database file, but strangely not to download it (the service I use has a tool for backup, but not for download).
3) same question as 2), but for Visual Studio 2013? I don't think so, since I notice none of the templates even mentions ADO.NET anymore, but instead they go with Entity Framework. Using EF I can of course do anything I want with the online database
(CRUD), but it remains online. Maybe there's a switch to make a local copy? I guess I could write a short program to suck all the data out of the online database and put it into a new, duplicate database having the same tables, that I create on
my localhost, but my question here is if there's an easier way than this, maybe a tool or command I can run from inside Visual Studio?
Any advice on any of the above questions is appreciated.
Thank you,
Paul

Thanks but these links are too general to help.
"2. what do you mean by online file?" - I mean the SQL Server database file is on a remote web server that I rent from, but I am not the administrator of. I can access my database using SQL Server Authentication, but nothing more.
Paul
What do you mean by too general? It explains on how you can use data tier application to create and deploy databases
May be this will help you to understand better

Unable to connect to SQL Server 2008 from OBIEE 11G(on 64 bit Linux box)

We are unable to connect to connect to SQL Server 2008 from OBIEE 11G which is on 64 bit Red Hat Enterprise Linux.
Infrastructure: OBIEE 11.1.1.5 64bit, on 64 bit Red Hat Linux Enterprise Linux 5.6 , MS SQL Server 2008 on 64 bit Microsoft Windows Server
Issue Description: Unable to connect to SQL Server 2008 from OBIEE11G RPD
Details: We are unable to connect to SQL Server 2008 from OBIEE which is on a 64 bit Linux box. We created the ODBC connection on Linux box to the SQL server. Whenever we try to import metadata it throws an error that says ‘Connection Failed’.
Here are the steps we followed to setup the ODBC connection on Linux box.
1) We updated the user.sh file with the LD_LIBRARY_PATH and LD_LIBRARY_PATH_64 values that point to $ORACLE_HOME/bifoundation/odbc/lib
This is where we found the driver for SQL server SEmsss23.so.
2) We updated the odbc.ini file with the entry for SQL server with the connection details
SI_SQL_Server_DEV = SQL Server
[SI_SQL_Server_DEV]
Driver=/u001_OAS/Oracle/Middleware/Oracle_BI1/bifoundation/odbc/lib/SEmsss23.so
Description=DataDirect 5.1 SQL Server Wire Protocol
Address=10.230.216.52,54970
AlternateServers=
AnsiNPW=Yes
ConnectionRetryCount=0
ConnectionRetryDelay=3
Database=SVBDW_NEW
LoadBalancing=0
LogonID=SIDatavalidation
Password=~~~Password123
QuoteID=No
ReportCodePageConversionErrors=0
3) We updated the IDENTIFIER_QUOTE_CHAR with single quotes instead of double quotes in the DB features of the RPD
4) We updated the bash_profile file to point the ODBCINI variable to the path where the OBIEE odbc.ini file is present.
Export ODBCINI=/u001_OAS/Oracle/Middleware/instances/instance1/bifoundation/OracleBIApplication/coreapplication/setup/odbc.ini
The error in nqsserver.log file says “[nQSError: 16001] ODBC error state: IM002 code: 0 message: [DataDirect][ODBC lib] Data source name not found and no default driver specified.”

Hi,
Make sure SQL Configuration Manager make sure the TCP/IP enabled. please try below method
Method 1
Re Create a new ODBC & Oracle Bi Server DSN Configuration test it and use it in the connection pools.
define your ODBC data source in your server where the BI Server is installed. Check your DB connections in your physical layer and make they are defined on your BI Server as well.
Method 2:
try using the complete TNS in below format in the datasource name section:
(DESCRIPTION = (ADDRESS_LIST = (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP) (HOST =DB IP)(PORT = 1521)) ) (CONNECT_DATA = (SERVICE_NAME = ORCL) ) and provide the credentials.
Method 3:
To use the OCI call interface you need to have oracle client DB to be installed so that you can establish a connection using that DB credentials and connect to the remote dB and then import the tables.....this is the rule of thumb.
hope helps you.
Thanks

Linked Server unable to Connect in SQL Server 2012 after Restarting SQL Server Service it works fine. Why?

I have created a Linked Server to Access Database of 64 MB in Size located in Remote System to SQL Server 2012.In Start for Some time it works fine and after it is giving the Error
OLE DB provider "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" for linked server "LANDLINE_TEST" returned message "Cannot open a database created with a previous version of your application.".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Procedure Insert_Records_Into_Actual_Calls_History, Line 29
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" for linked server "LANDLINE_TEST".
Previously I thought it as Permission Issue. By trying some fixes proposed in forums it not fixed. But, after restarting the SQL Server Services without changes to the linked Server it works perfectly. How could i fix it. I don't want restart the SQL Server
Service it leads to Some other process failures.
RehaanKhan. M

After all the Errors, When I am restarting the SQL Server its working correctly.
Whats the problem it is clearing itself after restarting of SQL Server. Why ?. I can't find anything regarding this in SQL Server .
The following are the Errors i got connecting to SQl Server.
OLE DB provider "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" for linked server "LANDLINE_TEST" returned message "Cannot open a database created with a previous version of your application.".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Procedure Insert_Records_Into_Actual_Calls_History, Line 29
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" for linked server "LANDLINE_TEST".
Error-2:

Cannot obtain the required interface ("IID_IDBCreateCommand") from OLE DB provider "Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0" for linked server "LANDLINE_TEST".
for to fix above error i have followed the instructions in the following link,
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/dataaccesstechnologies/archive/2010/08/19/permissions-needed-to-set-up-linked-server-with-out-of-process-provider.aspx
This also failed to work. I Restarted SQL Server and make the Linked Server Properties Default to my Configuration and it works fine.
Can you suggest me a solution for this issue. Every time i don't want to restart SQL Server Services as it effects other jobs and Processes.
Thank you.

Database Connection in SQL Server 2000

Hi All!
I would like to ask your expertise regarding JDBC-MS SQL Server 2000.
I have here a sample code in connecting to SQL Server 2000, AgriMrpPrd Database using the account "sa" and the password "092802". I have tried running the code in my local server at home and It successfully runs, but when I tried running it on my local server in the office, I was not able to create a connection object though I already have changed the HOST, PORT, DATABASE, USERNAME, and PASSWORD values.
I have tried logging in using my local account, removed the LAN connection, start my local server and tried connecting to it but still it does not work.
I have tried turning the firewall OFF and try reconnecting but it there was no improvement.
I do not know if there is a difference if there is my computer is on a DOMAIN (althought I am only connecting to my local server).
Source Code:
import javax.swing.*;
import java.sql.*;
import com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.*;
public class SQLServerConnection{
public String un, pw, db, host, port, url, driver;
public Connection conn=null;
public void connectDB(){
String msg="",title="MS SQL Server - JDBC:ODBC Connection";
int msgType=0;
driver="com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver";
host="206.101.216.95";
port="1433";
un="sa";
pw="092803";
db="AgriMrpPrd";
url="jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://" + host + ":" + port + ";DatabaseName=" + db;
try{
Class.forName(driver);
conn=DriverManager.getConnection(url,un,pw);
System.out.println("Connected to Database!");
}catch(Exception ex){
msg="Unable to connect to MS SQL Server!";
msgType=JOptionPane.ERROR_MESSAGE;
JOptionPane.showMessageDialog(null,msg,title,msgType);
System.exit(0);
public static void main(String args[]){
SQLServerConnection ssc=new SQLServerConnection();
ssc.connectDB();
Please give me wisdom in handling this problem...
Take care always and God blesss

Hi All!
I would like to ask your expertise regarding JDBC-MS
SQL Server 2000.
I have here a sample code in connecting to SQL Server
2000, AgriMrpPrd Database using the account "sa" and
the password "092802". I have tried running the code
in my local server at home and It successfully runs,
but when I tried running it on my local server in the
office, I was not able to create a connection object
though I already have changed the HOST, PORT,
DATABASE, USERNAME, and PASSWORD values.If the code runs in one place and not the other, it's got to be a problem with seeing the host.
I have tried logging in using my local account,
removed the LAN connection, start my local server and
tried connecting to it but still it does not work.
I have tried turning the firewall OFF and try
reconnecting but it there was no improvement.
I do not know if there is a difference if there is my
computer is on a DOMAIN (althought I am only
connecting to my local server).I have no idea how to fix your problem, but there are several things to comment on about your code:
(1) You don't have to import the microsoft package. It's actually a bad idea.
(2) I'd name this class DbConnection, because if you wrote it properly it might have a chance of being useful wih other databases, too.
(3) You hardwire all the connection information. Better to pass it in so changing the database doesn't require a recompile.
(4) It's bad to mingle Swing and database code. Take those JOptionPane calls out.
(5) Print the stack trace out when you catch an exception. You're losing a lot of information by handling it that way.
