    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 do i connect to sql server using java?

    hi ever body
    i need to connect to sql server using java
    what is the driver i will use?
    thanks

    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.

  • Connection with SQL Server using DBCO

    Hi,
    I want to connect to Misrosoft SQL Server using DBCO transaction. I have given the following fields.
    DB Connection = test
    DBMS = MSS
    User Name = user02
    password = test
    Conn. info = MSSQL_SERVER=tcp:10.100.50.36 MSSQL_DBNAME=New_Wisdom
    permanent selected
    Connection Limit = 5
    Optimum Conns = 2
    while executing through the statement as follows,
    EXEC SQL.
    CONNECT :'TEST'
    ENDEXEC.
    I am getting the dump ' An SQL error occurred when executing Native SQL.
    The error 900 occurred in the current database connection "DEFAULT".' Please suggest me what needs to be added or corrected.

    Hi Benito.
    I'm not very familiar with MSS but maybe the following will help a little bit.
    Depending on the version of your SAP system you can use the transaction DBACOCKPIT to add connections to non-SAP databases. There is an test connection button in that transaction, too. You will find some information about that transaction in some whitepapers here in the SDN. For example have a look at this one: https://www.sdn.sap.com/irj/sdn/go/portal/prtroot/docs/library/uuid/1062428c-f1df-2910-b08f-c322feddcd10
    ADBC error 16 is just "something went wrong". Is your SAP system using MSS, too? If not you will need the matching DBSL for it on your SAP system.
    If you have set up an connection you can use program ADBC_TEST_CONNECTION to check if everything is ok. If I remember it correctly in case of errors it allows you to jump into the trace file. There you should find some usefull information.
    Perhaps asking in the Database&OS forum area (there is a MSS forum) might help, too.
    Best regards,
    Jan

  • Login fails when connecting to SQL Server 2008

    There were 3 databases and a report server database on sql server 2008 r2. All were renamed.  Now, when trying to connect to sql server I am getting a login failed error for default database. I'm guessing because the default db name was changed. How
    can I fix this so that I can connect to the db server\instance?
    Thanks

    Hi ,
    According to your description, I do a test in SQL Server 2008R2. If you use windows system admin account to log in the instance via Windows authentication, even if you change all use database name, you can still log in successfully. However, if you create
    a SQL Server login name to connect to instance via SQL Server authentication, when you change the default database name, it will
     occur the error which just like at follows .
    //Cannot open user default database. Login failed.
    Login failed for user '***'. (.Net SqlClient Data Provider), Error Number: 4064//
    I recommend you change the default database any existing database on your server like master via clicking on Option , or you can run following statement for username
     to replace your original database name with master.
    ALTER LOGIN [login name] WITH DEFAULT_DATABASE = master
     GO

  • Failure when connecting MS SQL SERVER from ODI ! could not load JDBS driver

    i have some trouble with connecting MS SQL SERVER from ODI.
    I have already downland jdbs driver 3.0 (and 2.0 ) and copy the sqljdbc4.jar to D:\oracle\product\11.1.1\Oracle_ODI_1\oracledi\agent\drivers( where the oracle jdbs driver is already exitst )....but i have this error :
    could not load JDBS driver class..
    thanks

    After more investigation and even more chocolate, we've identified the problem and it's now working. For anyone else who strikes this problem in future, here's something to check/consider/try:
    Even though Squirrel SQL Client was connecting and working ok using the MS JDBC driver (v 3.0), it recorded this in its logs:
    Cannot resolve the collation conflict between "SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS" and "Latin1_General_CI_AS" in the INTERSECT operation.
    We've found that the open source jTDS driver does not have the same issue as the Microsoft one.
    We've installed the current jTDS driver, recorded the driver name (net.sourceforge.jtds.jdbc.Driver) and the JDBC URL (jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://<hostname>:1433/<database>) and the connection is now working fine.
    Hope this helps other people...
    Thanks to those of you who offered suggestions and things to check...much appreciated.

    Hi,
    As mentioned in the following configuration article, for earlier versions of SQL Server where MARS was not an option, the way to configure is to have server-side cursors configured.
    (check out the tabulated column next to MARS_Connection for details)
    http://www.easysoft.com/products/data_access/odbc-sql-server-driver/manual/configuration.html
    To use server-side queries in the connection URL, pls go through this link
    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/jdev/howtos/bc4j/bc_psqlserverwalkthrough.html
    But please note that server-side cursors does have a performance overhead.
    Let me know if you need more information.
    HTH,

  • ODBC Slow resonse time when connecting to SQL SERVER on Azure VM

    Hello,
    I have extra small AZURE VM with SQL Server Express 2008.
    I managed to connect to the SQL Server by ODBC connection (from access).
    The problem is that the response time is very slow and it is not usable.
    How can I improve the response time?
    If I will use bigger VM or use AZURE SQL SERVER (instead of installing SQL SERVER on VM)
    will the response time be better?
    Thank you for your help

    Hello,
    In addition to resoure of the windows Azure VM, the network and the query may also result to the slow response. When create a Windows Azure SQL Database, it also share resources with other services.
    You can refer to the following blog about manage connections in Windows Azure SQL Database:

  • UD Connect to SQL Server  using Remote Cube(URGENT !!!!)

    Hi all,
    Scenario:
    I am new to Remote/Virtual Cubes and I think everyone is new to Universal Data Connect (UD Connect).  I have to create a prototype using Remote Cube to create a front end reporting tool for one of our partners that does not have an SAP system.  So instead of our partner buying a front end tool to do querying on their database we decided to create the solution from our BW system by using Remote Cubes with UD connect since we just upgraded to 3.5 .  The legal limitation prevent us from loading the data on our system so we have to use remote cubes. 
    Question:
    I know RCs  are limited when it comes to the amount of data that they report on and the number of users that can use them but I don't have exact numbers.... I'm quiet certain that no one really know the 'exact' limit but it would help if i know the approx figures I'm working with.  I need to come with with a prototype ASAP so it can be decided if we want to go ahead with this. 
    I would appreciate ANY help from anyone regarding this issue and if you can think of some more issues that i might encounter pls let me know.  It would be great if someone who has gone thru this can guide me as well...Thank you all in advance.

    Hi,
    1) DB Connect is something like the grandfather of UD Connect (simply put).
    2) Here is some documentation about UDC:
    http://help.sap.com --> SAP NetWeaver --> [release, language] --> SAP NetWeaver --> Information Integration --> SAP Business Information Warehouse --> Data Warehousing --> Data Retrieval --> Data Transfer with UD Connect
    directly:
    http://help.sap.com/saphelp_nw04/helpdata/en/78/ef1441a509064abee6ffd6f38278fd/frameset.htm
    3) Customer Call Series recordings, presentations, etc.:
    http://service.sap.com/nw-cc
    (the webex session for UDConnect was on 17th March)
    4) UD Connect uses the 4 Connector types that SAP provides, like XML, ODBO, JDBC and SAP Query. They same connectors are used by the Bi Java SDK, which is included in the Visual Composer by the BI Kit.
    While in the UDC scenario you can either extract or remotely access the data and build structures for it, in the VC scenario you just make remote access to the data.
    Performance in either case depends on the amount of data and the kind of navigation and aggregation you require on the data made on the backend system (your MS SQL Server). And of course from network, load on the systems, etc.

  • How i connect to SQL server using java?

    hi every body
    i need to connect to a sql server database using java
    i do not know sql driver in java
    plz help me
    thanks

    This is certainly the wrong forum for that question. Search in the JDBC forum. This has been asked and answered many times.

  • How do i connect to SQL server using the JDBC ODBC

    I am attempting to connect to a database on a server over a network. It is running SQL Server 2005. Am i supposed to set the ODBC on my computer or on the server computer and this is the code i am using but i keep getting a class not found exception.
    //Variables for the connection to the second Database static final String JDBC_DRIVER2 = "com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc";; static final String DATABASE_URL2 = "jdbc:sqlserver:///*serverName*/;databaseName=Dashboard;" + "user=dashboard; password = **********"; private Connection connection2; public void Connection2() throws Exception{ Class.forName(JDBC_DRIVER2); connection2 = DriverManager.getConnection(DATABASE_URL2); System.out.println("Connected 2"); Statement statement2 = connection2.createStatement(ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_SENSITIVE, ResultSet.CONCUR_UPDATABLE); }
    I have the server's actual name in /*serverName*/ so i know that it is not the issue i left it out for business sensitivity.
    I downloaded sqljdbc.jar and have placed it both in my eclipse driver folder and in the project folder itself.
    Any help would be very grateful.
    Thanks Nathan M.

    ODBC has nothing to do with the driver in the code that you posted.
    Class not found has nothing to do with the connection string.
    And the exception stack trace, if you were printing it, would make that obvious because then you would note that
    it isn't getting to that line.
    Class not found exception means that either your class path is wrong, which is a basic part of java not jdbc,
    or that you specified the class name wrong.
    I downloaded sqljdbc.jar and have placed it both in my eclipse driver folder and in the project folder itself.Apparently that isn't sufficient because it still isn't in your class path.

  • Error in VS2010 when connecting with SQL Server 2014

    I have SQL2014 Express installed locally but it is not detected by VS2010. Why would I need to have the 2008 version?

    http://blogs.msdn.com/b/webdev/archive/2010/05/03/visual-studio-2010-support-with-sql-server.aspx
    It proably only goes to SQL 2008. I don't recall pointing VS2010 to SQL Server 2012 either.
    Maybe, you should post to the below fourm.
