How to configure SQL Server to allow remote connections

Hi,
This is RtPrasad.I am working in some software company.I am supporting an application in one of the projects.I am using windows 7 OS and SQLServer 2008 r2.When ever I am trying to connecting to the test server through SSMS from my lenovo thinkpad,I am getting
an error as shown in the screen shot.I searched a lot in the google and I went through the many sites.In those sites,below is the URL of one site.
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/walzenbach/archive/2010/04/14/how-to-enable-remote-connections-in-sql-server-2008.aspx.But Still I am getting the same error.Can anybody please solve this problem as soon as possible.Thanks in advance.
Thanks&Regards,
RtPrasad.

How to configure Sql Server 2008 R2 for debugging without disabling Windows Firewall?

When I try to debug a procedure in Sql Server 2008 R2 I get a dialog box telling me to unblock some ports.
>>
The Windows Firewall on this machine is currently blocking remote debugging. Remote debugging requiers that the debugger be allowed to receive informatino from the network. Remote debugging also requires DCOM (TCP Port 135) and IPSEC (UDP 4500
/ UDP 500) be unblocked.
<<
I went to the Windows Firewall and added some new Inbound rules for each of the specified ports (in the images below. But after this and rebooting entire computer -- I still get this dialog box when I want to go into debug mode from SSMS. I can
actually kind of debug standalone code in the SSMS window if I cancel the dialog box. But I can't debug an actual stored procedure -- which is what I need to do. I also noticed that my server has an IP address instead of LocalHost. This is
not a public Server -- it's my private development machine which is on a peer to peer network (with one other workstation), but I don't need that workstation to be able to access this server.. Would localholst make a difference for debugging? How
should I configure the sql server? The firewall?

Use PRINT and SELECT for debugging. That's what I do. I used to play with the debugger in SQL 2000 and older days, but I realised that I spent more time on getting it to work that I gained from using it.
I thought about that. I guess that IS the way to go. Very well. Thank you for the suggestion. Although, when the debugger does work in the regular window (not a stored proc because it doesn't work there) the debugger IS nice.
For debugging my proc I am thinking I will insert param vals into a test collection table for now. One obscure error I am getting with a particular proc -- in a When loop on one parameter I get the "value will be truncated" error -- but everything
is set to accept 1000 characters and none of the source data even comes close to 1000 characters. I have isolated at what point the error occurs and which section of data where the error is occurring but I have not isolated the cause of the error.
I cannot reproduce the error when I run the procedure by hand in a regular query window with the exact same code. The error only occurs when the code is run in the stored proc.

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.

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

Hello,
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)

How to add sql server (SQLEXPRESS) AND sql server Agent(SQLEXPRESS) in sql server Configuration Manager

When I had uninstall Sql Server 2008 R2, that time I had uninstalled instances (SQLEXPRESS and MSSQLSERVER) and again installed sql server 2008 r2 setup .
Before uninstalling from control panel >Uninstall program showed two setups
1) Microsoft sql server 2) Microsoft sql server R2 , I uninstalled both.
As i installed SQL R2 again, it is showing only 1 instance ie "Microsoft sql server R2" but the other instance is some how missing -"Microsoft sql server" and
also sql server (SQLEXPRESS) AND sql server Agent(SQLEXPRESS) services from sql server configuration manager are missing
How to retain the missing instance and the above services?
Plz give replay

Hi Tushar,
I need to ask you a question here.
Why you require SQL Express edition on your machine, if there is no need you can safely ignore it and continue using SQL Server 2008 R2 edition.
Express edition can also get installed if you happen to have installed Visual Studio 2010 for instance.
If you need it then you must install SQL Server Express edition, It is a freeware and can be download from Microsoft website.

How to access Sql Server Express installed on Virtual PC from Host?

I have SQL Server Express 2008 R2 installed on Virtual PC. and on my Host machine i have SQL Server 2008 R2 ( Enterprise Version) installed.
Since Management studio that comes with SQL express does not support SQL profiler, i want to access SQL Server Express from the Host machine’s management studio which has SQL profiler.
But I could access it using VM’s ip address & instance name

Hi lax,
Follow below steps in your Virtual Machine:
1. Allow remote connections to this server
The first thing you want to check is if Remote Connections are enabled on your SQL Server database. In SQL Server 2008 you do this by opening SQL Server 2008 Management Studio, connect to the server in question, right click the server and open the Server Properties.
Navigate to Connections and ensure that Allow remote connections to this server is checked.
2. Protocols for MSSQLServer
The next good thing to check is the SQL Server Network Configuration. Open the SQL Server Configuration Manager, unfold the node SQL Server Network Configuration and select Protocols for MSSQLServer (or whatever the name of your SQL Server instance is). Make
sure that TCP/IP is enabled.
3. The Firewall
If there is still no communication happening between your computer and the remote SQL Server you most likely need to configure your firewall settings.
A good first step is to figure out which port is being used by TCP/IP (and which you need to open in your firewall). You can do this by right clicking TCP/IP and selecting Properties. Click on the tab IP Addresses .
That was easy enough and all there is left to do is to allow inbound TCP/IP traffic on Port 1433 in your firewall. In Windows 7 this works something like this. Open the Control Panel and navigate to Windows Firewall. Click on Advanced Settings on the left hand
side and you should see the Windows Firewall with Advanced Security. Select the Inboud Rules on the left hand side and click on New Rule on the right hand side. This opens the New Inbound Rule Wizard which you can use to allow inbound traffic on Port 1433
for TCP/IP.
For more information, please refer to
http://blogs.msdn.com/b/walzenbach/archive/2010/04/14/how-to-enable-remote-connections-in-sql-server-2008.aspx.
In host machine:
After you have done steps above, you could use the SQL Server Management Studio in the host machine to connect the SQL Server Express R2 in Virtual PC. If you installed a default instance in Virtual PC, you could use VirtualComputerName to login the SQL
Server database engine. If you installed a named instance in Virtual PC, you could use VirtualComputerName\InstanceName to login the SQL Server database engine.
Thanks,
Maggie

How to set SQL Server Login MUST_CHANGE, CHECK_POLICY, CHECK_EXPIRATION all to OFF with T-SQL

How to set SQL Server Login MUST_CHANGE, CHECK_POLICY, CHECK_EXPIRATION all to OFF with T-SQL. SSMS will not allow me to change policies to OFF. Error: 15128 - The CHECK_POLICY and CHECK_EXPIRATION options cannot be turned OFF when MUST_CHANGE is
on. I am attempting to change these options in a test environment. Thanks, Richard

It appears you have to change the password first(it could the same password but an alter command needs to be done)
check this : http://www.sqldbadiaries.com/2010/11/07/the-check_policy-and-check_expiration-options-cannot-be-turned-off-when-must_change-is-on/

Hope it Helps!!

SQL Server Agent gives- Remote procedure call failed (0x800706be)

I can't access SQL Server 2008 R2 remotely on Windows 2008
1. TCP/IP Enabled for SQL Server Network Configuration Protocols, SQL Native Client 10.0 configuration clients, and SQL Native Client 10.0 configuration clients(32 bit)
2. Firewall disabled to make sure its not interferring with things.
I noticed the SQL Server Agent is Stopped. Not sure if this is the issue. When I try and turn this from disabled to Automatic or Manual, I get this error:
Remote procedure call failed (0x800706be)
It shouldn't be this difficult.
Thank you for your help in advance!

Any luck?

How to restore SQL Server 2008 database to SQL Server Express 2012

How to restore SQL Server 2008 database to SQL Server Express 2012.
I BACKED UP a SQL Server 2008 database from work, which runs the enterprise version of 2008, and I tried to RESTORE it to my new 64-Bit home PC which is running the new SQL Server Express 2012 64-Bit (Advanced Edition).
But if fails. I get the following message text.
Can anyone help me please. I thought restoring a 2008 database to the later version 2012 would be possible.
Here is the error message. Thanks.
TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio
Restore of database failed. (Microsoft.SqlServer.Management.RelationalEngineTasks)

System.Data.SqlClient.SqlError: The database was backed up on a server running version 8.00.2039. That version is incompatible with this server, which is running version 11.00.3128. Either restore the database on a server that supports the backup, or use a
backup that is compatible with this server. (Microsoft.SqlServer.SmoExtended)

Are you sure your database is SQL server 2008 from error message it seems your SQL server version is 2000.I guess you have multiple versions of SQL server.
AFAIK you cannot restore backup of SQL server 2000 to 2012 directly .Restore it first to SQL 2008/2008R2 or 2005 then take backup again of new database created and then you would be able to restore it on 2012.Its kind of intermediate way
Also make sure your DB size is less than 10 G as max DB size supported by Express edition is 10 G and if your DB size is more than 10 G restore will fail.
You are also trying to restore enterprise DB backup on express edition so you will loose enterprise features on express edition

How to store jpeg images in SQL server using NI database Connectivity Toolset. Can anyone please help me in this regard.

Please tell how to store jpeg images in SQL Server using NI Database Connectivity Toolset.

http://www.w3schools.com/sql/sql_datatypes.asp
You setup a field as BLOB and store the binary of the picture there. Depending on the database it can be called differently as you can see in the link, in SQL server there's even a Image datatype.
