DNS Connection to SQL Server

Does anybody have an example of how to connect to an SQL Server Database

Benoit, your Designer form data will be passed along just like the data from an html form. To connect a Designer form to a web server, a script or another application is required. In other words, you can't do this from Designer like you can with ODBC. The work is done by the web server, so ask your question of the person in charge of the web server.

Network related or instance specific error occurred while establishing a connection to sql server

Hi all,
I am getting a SQL 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: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified).
Problem is when a user tries to connect with remote SQL Server
through VPN from Domain, it throws this error, and when the same machine tries to connect with Remote SQL Server through VPN as a standlone machine, it is getting connected.
I checked all the settings but ....... There is no any policies deployed in Active Directory.
Any suggetion?

check these
1) Make sure your server name is correct, e.g., no typo on the name.
2) Make sure your instance name is correct and there is actually such an instance on your target machine.
[Update: Some application converts \\ to \. If you are not sure about your application, please try both Server\Instance and Server\\Instance in your connection string]
3) Make sure the server machine is reachable, e.g, DNS can be resolve correctly, you are able to ping the server (not always true).
4) Make sure SQL Browser service is running on the server.
5) If firewall is enabled on the server, you need to put sqlbrowser.exe and/or UDP port 1434 into exception.

Could not connect to SQL Server 2012 Remotely

Hello,
I have a situation as follows:
The Server
SQL Server 2012 Standard Edition installed on Windows Server 2012 Standard Edition
Active Directory is installed on the same server as well
Remote Access Role added and configured to connect VPN
DNS Role added
Windows Firewall is disabled
The Server is connected to the internet
SQL Server Service & SQL Browser both are running under domain accounts
SQL Server allows remote connections
The Router
The router that connects the server to the Internet is configured to:
Enable VPN Tunnels Protocols (PPTP, L2TP and IPSec)
Forwarding > Virtual Servers (all requests on TCP and UDP on all ports to the server local IP)
The Client
PC running Windows 7 SP1 with SQL Server 2012 Express
Joined AD on the server
Connected to the internet
VPN Connected to the Server
Can Remote Desktop the Server
Can ping the server host name
Can nslookup the server host name
The Problem
If Both the Server and the Client are connected in the same Local Area Network, Client can connect to the SQL Serve
Once the Client is placed in different location connected to the Interent, VPN connected as described above, I could not connect to the Server using:
Windows Authentication Domain Users or
SQL Server users
and the error message is:
Cannot connect to SERVER\SQLINSTANCE.
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:
SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: -1)

Hello Hilary,
I have been working on a small replication test.
On the Publisher, things went smooth and the Snapshot Agent was able to work and produce a snapshot written in a shared folder located on the Publisher
On the Subscriber, as I am testing from SQL Server Express, I had run the following command:
replmerg.exe -Publisher [SERVER\SQLInstance] -PublisherDB [dbRepl] -PublisherSecurityMode 0 -PublisherLogin rplMergeAgent -PublisherPassword p@ssw0rd -Publication [TEST Publication] -Distributor [SERVER\SQLInstance] -DistributorSecurityMode 0 -DistributorLogin
rplMergeAgent -DistributorPassword p@ssw0rd -Subscriber [SUBSCRIBER\SQLInstance] -SubscriberSecurityMode 0 -SubscriberLogin rplMergeAgent -SubscriberPassword p@ssw0rd -SubscriberDB [dbRepl] -SubscriptionType 1 -OutputVerboseLevel 2 -Output C:\TEMP\mergeagent.log
Where
SERVER
Publisher and Distributor
dbRepl
Database to replicate
Merge Agent
rplMergeAgent
Subscriber
SUBSCRIBER
dbRepl
Subscriber Database
Merge Agent
rplMergeAgent
Password
p@ssw0rd
rplMergeAgent
SQL Login defined in both Publisher and Subscriber with same password
Granted the following at Publisher:
Login to Publication Database (dbRepl)
Login to Distribution Database (distribution)
Member of PAL
Granted the following at Subscriber:
db_owner fixed database role in Subscription database (dbRepl)
I couldn't grant rplMergeAgent Read Permission on SnapshotFolder as it is only a SQL Login.
When I ran the above command line, I received the following error:

I am pasting below the whole log file written by the above command:

I can say it is about how can the rplMergeAgent read the Shared folder.
What do you think?

Connection with SQL Server 2000 to SQL Developer 1.2 Migration Workbench

Hi all,
I keep getting the following error with setup for SQL Developer 1.2 Migration Workbench connection to SQL Server 2000 database:
"Status: Failure -Network error IOException: Connection refused:connect"
I can access the Microsoft SQL Server 2000 database with username
and password using Enteprise Manager. However for some odd
reason the Oracle SQL Developer 1.2 cannot connect to it.

I was having this problem too. I'll mangle this explanation, but Our SQLServer instance was on a local server with some named DNS something. So, to get to the server, we used theservername.outdomain instead of an IP. We could never get it to connect through the named server. We got an SQLServer instance going on a server that we could connect to through a regular IP, and it connected just fine.
Also, are you using the JTDS driver, or microsofts driver? We have only been able to connect with the JTDS driver. http://jtds.sourceforge.net/

Opening connection to SQL Server take about 20 seconds

Hello!
When I connecting to SQL Server 2000 throwgh JDBC, method getConnection() work about 20 seconds. What the reason of this behavior may be? I use JDBC driver from Microsoft.
Sorry for my English.
Thank you.

I cleared up the reason of such effect myself. May be it will be interesting somebody. The cause was in absence of server name on DNS server!

How do I connect to SQL Server with Muse?

I want to query items from database and load it back to front end. Is there a way Muse can connect to sql server database?

===================================
The system cannot find the file specified
I have tried from so many forms. This is so frustrating. Thank for everyone/anyone who wants to help. So this is what happened: I had to uninstall my previous sqlserver 2012(which worked great) for some reason, and I uninstalled everything from that download.
Then I installed the trial edition of sql server 2012 (64 Bit) and It wouldn't connect to the database. (Error mentioned above.) My local DB is COWBOYS. (COWBOYS is also my computer name.) After this, I have tried downloading sqlexpress and sqlserver 64bit
many times and cannot connect to my local DB.
How do I connect to my Local DB?
Also, I think this might help: (When I run sqlserve.exe, which I was able to find in C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\110\LocalDB\Binn, I get an error: Your SQL server installation is either corrupt or has been tampered with(Error getting
instance ID from name). Please uninstall then re-run setup to correct this problem.
I would happily re install it, if it wasn't my 20th time.
I don't have any remote connections, I don't use username/password, only window authentication. I work mostly on visual studio, but without able to store /retrieve data, I don't know how to survive.
May be the solution is very simple, but I am too frustrated.
Some of the things I have tried:
From a command prompt, enter one of the following commands:
net start "SQL Server Agent (MSSQLSERVER)" OR
net start "SQL Server Agent(instancename)"(for instance)
on my sql configuration, I cannot start anything because there is nothing there to start. I can post more details, if that would help. Also, some more details about the error:

Any one that can help me, I will be greatful. Thank you so much. p.s. please ask me anything if you have any questions.

It sounds like there are a couple things going on here. First check if you have a successful install of SQL Server, then we'll figure out the connection issues.
Can you launch SQL Server Configuration Manager and check for SQL Server (MSSQLSERVER) if default instance or SQL Server (other name) if you've configured your instance as a named instance. Once you find this, make sure the service is started.
If not started, try to start it and see if it throws an error. If you get an error, post the error message your hitting. If the service starts, you can then launch SSMS and try to connect. If you have a default instance, you can use the machine
name in the connection dialog. Ex: "COWBOYS" where Cowboys is the machine name. However, if you named the SQL Server instance during install, you'll need to connect using the machine\instance format. Ex: COWBOYS\Romo (where Romo
is the instance name you set during install).
You can also look at the summary.txt file in the SQL Server setup error logs to see what happened on the most recent install. Past install history is archived in the log folder if you need to dig those up to help troubleshoot, but the most
recent one may help get to the bottom of it if there is an issue with setup detecting a prior instance that needs to be repaired.

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.

How can i connect to SQL Server 7.0 on Windons Using JDBC

How can i connect to Microsoft SQL Server 7.0 on a windows enviroment ?
in sql server 2000 some jar files are required that is
What you need to do is actually add all three jar files to your class path individually. There are three jar files that come with this driver the msbase.jar, msutil.jar, and mssqlserver.jar. for sqlQ server 2000.
now the problem is that i cant find these files on my system. firstly where these files will be located. secondly are they will be used to connect to SQL Server 7.0. thirdly if not what is the procedure.
My next Problem is that I have Websphere Studio Application Developer. in which their is this facility of Database Webpages its like a wizard which makes automatically beans servlets and JSP but before that you need a Driver Name and and Class Name for to Connect to the Database.
Can you tell what is the specific Driver Path for the Microsoft SQL Server 7.0 . secondly is this the class which is used to connect to SQL server 7.0 "com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver" where can i find this one. for SQL server 7.0.
please provide some guidance in this regard.

You can search for the JDBC drivers at, http://industry.java.sun.com/products/jdbc/drivers
All the three jars that you specified are part of MsSQL Server jdbc driver. You need them (in the classpath) to get connected to the database.
"com.microsoft.jdbc.sqlserver.SQLServerDriver" is the class in mssqlserver.jar. This is the driver class which will be used to get connected to the database.
You can search in this forum for writting jdbc code (for Sql Server). If you don't find these jars, give me your e-mail id.

How can I connect to SQL Server CE?

Hi!
How can I connect to SQL Server CE ?
Any idea?
I found jdbc driver for SQL Server 6.5,7.0,2000.
But no driver for SQL CE.
Thanks for any suggestion....

I am also searching for same answer.
I wanna choose Access as a db. but I can't find that so I have a no choice to select SQL2000CE though.
I am stuck in driver problem. I can't find that.
Should I use Oracle Lite or PointBase?
I am under a lot of stress... like you've been...
I wish you find and post that....

Microsoft make a jdbc driver and it is readily available through MSDN. Here is a link http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/data/aa937724.aspx. Whatever jdbc driver you are looking for, Google it, and if it exists you'll find it in 10 seconds.
