I can't link to an I series (IBM AS400) server from my sql server 2014 server (64 bit) -- but yes can link on sql server 2005 (32 bit)

I have an I series (IBM AS400) server linked "OK" to a sql 2005 sql server (32 big).  I copied the link script (but changed credentials) from the sql server 2005 link and attempted to run it in the sql server 2014 server (on win 7 64 
bit).  There are no complaints from SSMS when I run the script, but when I try to query a table I get this error message:
OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "CWMPDTA" returned message "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed".
OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "CWMPDTA" returned message "[IBM][System i Access ODBC Driver]Key value in connection string too long.".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 11
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "CWMPDTA".
Here is the script (from the sql server 2005 (32 bit)) I ran on the sql server 2014 SSMS -- is there anything I need to change?  How can I get this I series server to link to my sql server 2014 server?

Thank you for this reply.  I went to the link and selected the option for DB2s and ran the install.  Then I started up SSMS.  I copied the same script as above, and it executed successfully.  But when I try to run a query against
a table in a database on this linked sever -- I get this error message:
OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "CWMPDTA" returned message "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver Manager] Driver's SQLSetConnectAttr failed".
OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "CWMPDTA" returned message "[IBM][System i Access ODBC Driver]Key value in connection string too long.".
Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 8
Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "MSDASQL" for linked server "CWMPDTA".
Do I need to change the line containing -- @provider=N'MSDASQL',  maybe?
this is the query I'm running:
select TOP 10 * from CWMPDTA.T9S.CWMPDTA.INSKU
The same exact query runs fine on the sql server 2005 linked server.  Is there something I need to configure?

  • SQL server 2005 SP3 can run SAP B1 2005A SP01 PL51

    Hi All,
    I could successfully install SAP B1 2005A SP01 PL51 in the SQL server 2005 SP3.
    In this link:
    http://service.sap.com/smb/sbo/platforms
    you won't find it such info.
    Why I upgrade, it is caused by the printing error issue using citrix.
    Anyone of you that have problem after run the B1 on that SQL, pls share.
    Someone who need webex file that shows the install process can request it to me. Let me know.
    Rgds,

    Hi Arshdeep,
    Thx for your reply. I just wonder why SAP did not inform the availability SP3 from Microsoft and the explanation about the inapplicable of SP3 for SAP B1 in the B1 platform link.
    I have  tested without using any steps and any other procedures. Practice is a good lesson to learn for me. Nevertheless, one concern from modern customers are the compatibility or adaptibility of SAP B1 to Microsoft product especially SQL since it is one of database platform.
    Old-fashioned customer will disregard that because they will think as long as my SAP B1 and SQL server still run well, I don't care..

  • Create a database link to access SqlServer 2005 view from oracle 11gr2

    Hi All,
    Greetings for the day.
    Though I have seen quite a few posts but just wanted to cross-verfiy and double check hence posting.
    Oracle Database : 11gr2
    OS :SOLARIS SPARC 64 Bit
    SQL Server Database : Sql Server 2005
    OS : Windows 2003 32 Bit
    The requirement is to access a view residing in the SQL Server 2005 Database using the Oracle Database. This involves creation of a Database link in the Oracle Database to access the SQL Server.
    Can you suggest which approach should i follow ( I am able to understand that both do the same job ):
    How to Configure DG4MSQL (Oracle Database Gateway for MS SQL Server) 64bit Unix OS (Linux, Solaris, AIX,HP-UX) post install [ID 562509.1]or
    How to Configure DG4ODBC on 64bit Unix OS (Linux, Solaris, AIX, HP-UX Itanium) to Connect to Non-Oracle Databases Post Install [ID 561033.1]Will they do the same job ? And can they be used on any OS and version of the SQL Server Database as version information for SQL Server is not specified anywhere?
    Please let me know so that I can it forward with Business for approvals and budgetting.
    Regards
    KK

    Your question is similar to the post: Oracle 11gr2 connection to Sql Server using dg4msql problem
    Please visit: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/4658942/oracle-11gr2-connection-to-sql-server-using-dg4msql-problem
    Answer on the website:
    You seem to be using the Gateway for MySQL set-up rather than the Heterogeneous Gateway (for ODBC connections). Here is an overview of the process
    On SQL Server create a database user and give it read access to the database/tables you want to read via the Oracle database link.
    In the gateway home each SQL Server database you want to access should have an init.ora located in $OH/dg4msql/admin in the form initsid.ora where sid is the name of the database to be used in the link (e.g. initbob.ora), so create one
    HS_FDS_CONNECT_INFO=msserver1:1234//Example_Database
    HS_FDS_TRACE_LEVEL=OFF
    HS_FDS_RECOVERY_ACCOUNT=RECOVER
    HS_FDS_RECOVERY_PWD=RECOVER
    HS_TRANSACTION_MODEL=READ_ONLY
    You must now add the new sid to the listener.ora in the gateway home using an additional SID_DESC section inside the existing SID_LIST, for example
    (SID_DESC =
    (SID_NAME=bob)
    (ORACLE_HOME=/oracle/gateway/product/11.2.0)
    (ENVS=LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/oracle/gateway/product/11.2.0/dg4msql/driver/lib;/oracle/gateway/product/11.2.0/lib)
    (PROGRAM=dg4msql)
    You should now stop and restart the gateway listener so that the new sid becomes active. NB a reload is not enough.
    You must now add the new sid in the tnsnames.ora file for the listener of each database in which you will create a link. You don't need to do this in the gateway home unless it is also a database home in which you will create a database link.
    bob =
    (DESCRIPTION =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = severname.example.com)(PORT = 1690))
    (CONNECT_DATA = (SID = bob))
    (HS = OK)
    NB: The host and port are for the gateway not for the SQL Server database
    In each database that requires a link to the MS-SQL database you should create a database link to your new gateway sid.
    CREATE PUBLIC DATABASE LINK bob
    CONNECT TO "ms_user" IDENTIFIED BY "ms-passwd" USING 'bob';
    where ms-user and ms-password are the SQL Server user you created right at the start.
    Now you can test the new database link
    SELECT COUNT(*) FROM "Table_Name"@bob;
    Once you have this working you can alter the initsid.ora file to add parameters to suit your connection. If you do it this way you can easily add and manage many different databases via the gateway.

  • How do I create a series of text frames from a list of files?

    And I'm back again.
    This time, I'm wondering how I can use JavaScript to place a series of text frames from a list of files, preferably with the ability to specify criteria before running the script.
    Here's the details: I work for a newspaper and I lay out stories for the pages (in addition to the other part of my job, laying out ad spaces, as detailed in a previous thread, for which I requested another script, thanks Andreas and Jongware ). The file names for the stories are labeled for the section they go in, like L- for Life, C- for Comment, S- for Sports, etc.
    I'd like to create a script that asks for a criteria in a text box (where I can type L-, C-, S- or whatever else I need) and then places all of the stories, in a specified directory, whose file names match what was typed in the box, one text frame for each.
    I can't rightly tell if this is a simpler or more difficult script to write out, but I plan on putting research into it as usual so I can develop it myself. However, I figured it would be more efficient to ask first, then research, so that while I'm researching, I can refer to the opinions of my fellow forumites, and/or the mods.
    Thanks again for any assistance offered.

  • Importing Data from MS Access into SQL Serevr 2005 via Linked Server: User-Dependent failure

    I am operating an Express version of SQL Server 2005 on a Windows XP machine.
    I have successfully setup a linked server to a remote Access (.mdb) database. With my user account (Windows authentication) I can retrieve and store data without any problem.
    I have another user (apparently with same settings as my own account) that is always failing to get the data.
    The Error message he gets is:
    OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "TSU_Tmp" returned message "The Microsoft Jet database engine cannot open the file '\\DSITSO-NT0001\Exchange\Database5.mdb'.  It is already opened exclusively by another
    user, or you need permission to view its data.".
    Msg 7303, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
    Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0" for linked server "TSU_Tmp".
    Here below the code used to set up the linked server (coming from the Code Snippets of SQL Server 2005).
    EXEC sp_addlinkedserver
    @server = N'TSU_Tmp',
    @provider = N'Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0',
    @srvproduct = N'OLE DB Provider for Jet',
    @datasrc = N'\\DSITSO-NT0001\Exchange\Database5.mdb'
    EXEC sp_addlinkedsrvlogin
    @rmtsrvname = N'TSU_Tmp',
    @useself = N'TRUE',
    @locallogin = NULL,
    @rmtuser = N'Admin',
    @rmtpassword = NULL
    We both run the script, actually is a Stored Procedure, (see code below) on the same XP machine where SQL Server is running.
    EXEC('INSERT INTO tblFcst
    (StartBUCode, StartBUType, StartBUSeq, StartTrz, StartCty,
    EndBUCode, EndBUType, EndBUSeq, EndTrz, EndCty,
    FcstCreationPeriod, FcstValidForPeriod, Fcst, FcstExternalReference,

    0 AS IsProcessed, 0 AS IsSolved
    FROM TSU_Tmp...tbl_TSU_trpm3 AS TSU;')
    PS: it is run using an 'EXEC(String)' format as at compile time of Store Procedure the Linked Server is not existing and otherwise compile would fail.
    We tried it with different files, in different locations. It always wors for me, never for him...
    The files were not used by anyone else. The folder(s) where they were stored are open to "Everyone".
    So I concluded it should be something linked to the User... :) But I really do not know what, as said apparently we have exactely the same setup in our Login profiles.
    Any idea or suggestion is welcome.
    Thanks
    Luca

    Hi Luca Lentati,
    According to your description and T-SQL statement, we need to verify if the download and install the Microsoft.Jet.OleDB.4.0 as a provider.
     If the 64bit SQL Server is running on the server,  The error, the Microsoft.Jet.OleDB.4.0 is not support, I reommend you download and install the Microsoft.ACE.OLEDB.12.0 as a provider.
    The error 7303 message indicates that the linked server does not have correct login mapping. You can execute the sp_helplinkedsrvlogin stored procedure to set the login information correctly. Also, verify that you have specified the correct parameters
    for the linked server configuration.
    In addition, if the issue still exists, I recommend you copy the access file to local Server, and create linked server between them , check if it can run well. If yes, it means that
     the account which SQL server uses to run the service does not have read/write access to that file share.
    There is an article about configuring a Linked Microsoft Access Server on SQL 2005 Server , you can review the following article.

  • Reading BLOB from SQL Server 2005 using DB Link from Oracle 10g

    Hi All,
    I am trying to read a table's data from SQL Server 2005 using ODBC DB Link created in Oracle 10g (10.2.0.3/4) database. I am not using oracle gateway.
    I am able read all data except for the BLOB data from SQL server 2005. It gives error given below when I try to execute query SELECT * from T_TRANSACTION_DATA@sdeslink inside a stored procedure:
    ORA-22992: cannot use LOB locators selected from remote tables
    Kindly help how to read BLOB from SQL server 2005 inside Oracle 10g.
    Best Regards!
    Irfan

    Irfan,
    If you can read the blob data using 10.2 HSODBC then there should be no problem using the 11g gateway.
    I recommend you download the latest version which is 11.2.0.3 available from My oracle Support as -
    Patch 10404530: 11.2.0.3.0 PATCH SET FOR ORACLE DATABASE SERVER
    This is a full version and does not need a previous version to have bene installed. When installing it needs to be in a completlely separate ORACLE_HOME from the existing 11.2 install.
    For the Ora-22992 problem have a look at this note in My Oracle Support -
    Ora-22992 has a workaround in 10gR2 (Doc ID 436707.1)
    Regards,
    Mike

  • Oracle InstantClient with Linked Server in Sql Server 2005

    We are trying to connect ORACLE server from sql server 2005 using Linked Server Feature in SqlServer 2005
    Generally Oracle Client software is needed for this activity in the sql server machine.
    Can we use "Oracle InstantClient" instead of "Oracle Client Software" to connect ORACLE using Linked Servers ?
    Please give us your views, any existing reports similar to this activity
    Thanks & Regards,

    Thanks for your reply
    I agree that Oracle Client software is used to connect oracle from SQL SERVER 2005.
    But my doubt is can we use Oracle InstantClient instead of Oracle Client software to connect oracle from SQL SERVER 2005
    with respect to Oracle Instant Client - I would like to know the development steps (Not the installation steps of Oracle Instant Client in windows machine) to connect ORACLE server.

  • How can i make iphone mobile website,  database in Sql Server 2005 ?

    You need to be a little clearer in what you're asking.
    You can't make any web site in SQL Server - it's a database engine, not a website tool.
    What you can do is create web sites that pull data from a back-end SQL Server, but the SQL server doesn't handle the client connection at all (that's handled by a web server such as Apache, IIS, or similar).
    There are many ways to build such a site including .NET, PHP, Perl and more (although I don't know all the options for Windows servers because they're not as common outside of corporate/enterprise networks).
    In either case, given your choice of development language (HTML, plus one of the PHP/Perl/.NET/etc. options), plus your database (SQL Server) plus your web server (IIS, Apache, etc.) you can make any web site you like (or, at least, you're capable of developing).
    If you want to opimize that web site for iPhones then there are many references on how mobile browsing differs from the desktop. I'd recommend this book as a reference (and, yes, I understand the irony of linking to a paperback book for web design guidance ). Googling mobile web design (or iPhone web design) might yield more results.

  • OraOledb, Linked Servers and SQL Server 2005 issues

    Some issues I've come across when using SQL Server 2005 (and SQL Server Express 2005), the OraOLEDB provider (10.2.0.1) and a linked Oracle database (8.1.7.4.0 64-bit)
    1) You must set the OraOledb.Oracle\AllowInProcess value to 1 to allow the OraOledb provider to run in SQL Server's process. Without doing this I receive an 'unspecified error' from the OLE DB provider when attempting to run a query
    2) When running a ' select * ' query across a linked server using the provider, I receive the following error: Msg 9803, Level 16, State 1, Line 1
    Invalid data for type "numeric". I can, however, select all of the columns by name and the query completes (no error). Sometimes the 'select *' query returns a few rows before the error, sometimes it doesn't. The Microsoft Provider for Oracle does not have this problem

    Okay... I've got a Win2K3 Std Ed server (x64) running 64-bit SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition. I've installed the Oracle 10g 10.2.1 full client and admin tools, added two named services via the NetConfig assistant, and successfully set up (and tested) a connection via the ODBC Administrator to an Oracle database.
    Now... when I try to create a new connection manager in SQL Server 2005 Integration Services, the OLEDB provider for Oracle can't be found, and when I try to manually add an underlying OLEDB connection to the database, SQL Server reports:
    Test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider. The 'OraOLEDB.Oracle.1' provider is not registered on the local machine.
    Does anyone know what I need to do to see my ODBC Server data connections in SQL Server 2005 (64 bit)? I don't have this issue on my 32-bit SQL Server 2005 servers.

  • Linked Servers - Sql server 2005 to connect to Oracle 11g using ldap.ora instead of tnsnames.ora

    We have a SQL Server 2005 64bit box that needs a linked server created to Oracle 11g 64bit box. I have all the Oracle client software installed and can successfully connect to the Oracle database using SQL+ on the SQL Server 2005 64bit box. When I create
    the linked server and select the OraOledb.Oracle provider, I get the TNSNames error. The Oracle server does not use tnsnames.ora it uses OLAP.ora to resolve. How do I get Linked server to stop trying to connect via TNSNames and use the OLAP.ora file instead?
    I can't find any articles for this specific issues. All Oracle examples tell you to use TNSNAMES. The Oracle server is not under my companies control so I can not force the vendor to use tnsnames instead of OLAP.

    Hi,
    Have you got a resolution?
    Thank you.

  • Website can't communicate with db - SQL Express 2005

    Here's the error message: [Macromedia][SequeLink JDBC
    Driver][ODBC Socket][Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL
    Server]Invalid object name.
    I have successfully connected to the db through coldfusion
    admin. I can see the tables in SQL Express 2005, manipulate them,
    etc... When I fire up my website, I get that error. I can't figure
    out how to solve this and I'm desperate at this point.
    Thanks for any help.

    Lol - I figured it out 5 minutes after I posted this (3 hours
    after this started). I had the driver pointing to the master
    database instead of the 'real' db beneath it. I had changed the
    settings previously, but they didn't take hold until I rebooted the
    server.
    ... will this MS nightmare never end? This is why I went to
    CF in the first place. CF works. MS is a series of endless
    patches.
