Getting an error "Remote Access Service Error" while establishing the connection usng SonicWall Netextender.

* Original Title: SonicWall Netextender issue with Windows 8.1
I am able to install SonicWall Netextender version 6.0.181 without any issues in my Windows 8.1 machine. When i try to establish the connection getting this error "Remote Access Service Error - Rebooting might Solve the problem".
Hope someone can help me in resolving this issue.

Hi,
Please go to Windows Service manager, run "services.msc", then Look for the Remote Access Auto Connection Manager and Remote Access Connection Manager to see if those two services have been started. If not, set them to automatic start, reboot the machine,
and install\configure NetExtender again.
Since this is a third party application, it's recommended to contact the application vender to check the compatibility with Windows 8.1\IE 11, because they're more familiar with the application.

    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.

    Hi,
    Thank you for posting in Windows Server Forum.
    Before sending message please check following considerations.
    - You must have Message special access permission to send a message to a user.
    - You can send messages only to users whose sessions are in the active or connected state.
    - You can send a message to a user session in Remote Desktop Services Manager by using the Send Message action.

  • 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.

    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)
    How Can i solve this?

    1. Make sure SQL Server Service is running
    2. If a named instance, make sure SQL Server browser service is running
    3. Make sure SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections
    4. Examine the SQL Server error log for messages confirming that SQL is listening on the expected network interfaces and ports
    5. Test server connectivity with PING from the client machine
    6. Test port connectivity using TELNET or PowerShell to the server and port (from step 4) from the client machine.  For example
    a. TELNET <server-name> 1433
    b. PowerShell: 1433 | % { echo ((new-object Net.Sockets.TcpClient).Connect("YourServerName",$_)) "server listening on TCP port $_" }
    7. Check firewall settings if step 5 or 6 connectivity test fails

    Hi Swaroop,
    It would be helpful to better understand what your code really does. The information that you called DIAdem from your enviroenment is not yet sufficient to understand what the problem might be.

    Make sure your SQL Server service is started.
    Make sure TCP\IP and names pipes protocol is enabled
    Make sure you have made an exception in firewall for SQL Server connection
    Make sure SQL Server browser service is enabled
    Make sure you connect with correct name hostname\instance name for named instance,MSSQLSERVER for default instance and Hotname\SQLEXPRESS for express edition.
    Please make sure you use port no when connecting to SQL server listeing on different port (hostname\instance ,portno)

  • 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
    [NoAutomaticTrigger]
    public static void ManualTrigger(TextWriter log, int value, [Queue("queue")] out string message)
    RitualDBEntities db = new RitualDBEntities();
    log.WriteLine("Function is invoked with value={0}", value);
    List<Location> locations = db.Locations.ToList();
    string msg = string.Empty;
    foreach (Location location in locations)
    msg += location.Name;
    message = msg;
    log.WriteLine("Following message will be written on the Queue={0}", message);
    In my app.config of my WebJob i have the following connection strings:
    <add name="RitualDBEntities" connectionString="metadata=res://*/RitualDBEntities.csdl|res://*/RitualDBEntities.ssdl|res://*/RitualDBEntities.msl;provider=System.Data.SqlClient;provider connection string=&quot;data source=ritual-pc\sqlexpress;initial catalog=RitualDB;integrated security=True;persist security info=False;MultipleActiveResultSets=True;App=EntityFramework&quot;" providerName="System.Data.EntityClient" />

    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,
    Amit

  • A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server2012

    please help me to solve this..:(((

    Hi,
    Following should be taken care of
    1. Make sure TCP/IP and named pipes protocol is enabled
    2. Make sure browser service is up and running
    3. Make sure SQL express service is up and running
    4. If you are connecting from remote make sure exception in firewall should be made.
    5. If your SQL Server is listeing on port apart from 1433 make sure you connect like
    RAVI\SQLEXPRESS,portno

  • Connecting to the LOB system has failed. A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Serve

    Hi!
    I'm using consume adapter service> sqlbinding >  to connect to sql database in order to generate sql schemas.

    Hi, 
    As suggested earlier this seems to be a DTC related issue. It can only occur if the DTC settings are not proper or if firewalls don't allow the default ports to communicate.
    Check DTC settings on both SQL and BizTalk Box and also check if MSDTC service is up and running.
    Go to Start
    à Run
    à (type in) Dcomcnfg. You should be inside Component Services MMC.
    Expand Component Services
    à Computers
    à My Computer (right click)
    à Properties
    à MSDTC tab
    à Security Configuration button.
    Select the checkboxes as following : 
    Check the below article from Microsoft Support Team, they have listed all the errors which may come during setting up a new system. They also have your MSDTC error listed.

  • Response Group: A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server.

    Hi all,
    I have three central sites with each having a Front End server pool (standard).
    Site A and Site B are paired for resiliency. Site C is on its own.
    On two of my Front Ends (Site A and Site B), when I click on response group tab i get the following warning on the top of the page:
    "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)"
    I have check out the following articles about dont think they apply to me:
    http://unifiedme.co.uk/2014/01/network-related-instance-specific-error-occurred-accessing-lync-control-panel-response-group-tab/
    I dont see any Event logs that would direct me to a cause. 
    Which database it is complaining about? RGSDYN and RGSCONFIG are local databases as it is an standard installation. What could be the possible cause for this issue?
    Thanks in advance.

    My latest change was the addition of Site C. 
    Going through logs (i must have missed it the first time, with all the noisy EWS errors), i found event ID 31147. I am investigating network issues although I have MPLS running to that location.
    Does Lync set up open correct ports on the machine itself?

  • 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?
    Rajneesh
    Rajneesh Kumar MCITP - SA, MCSE, CNA

    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.
