SQL server 2005 does not allow remote connnections error: 40 w/Synch Manage

I have a local server for B1 that I need to synch to a hosted Webserver. When I go to Synch Manager, I can't connect to the webtools on the hosted webserver even when I enter the IP address (which the firewall has been updated to allow).
When I try to connect is says "an error has occured while establishing connection to the server. when connecting to SQL server 2005 , this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL server does not allow remote connections. [provider: named pipes provider, error:40. could not open connection to SQL server.
I'm not a firewall or Infrastucture expert so I need assistance.
any help would be greatly appreciated!

turned out we just needed to turn on remote connections and named pipes for SQL.

SQL Server 2005 SP4 not installing correct on Server 2003

Everytime I attempt to install SP4 on my Server 2003 system it states it goes through successfully but when I reboot it hasn't done anything.
Summary Log states all is successful for version 9.00.5000.00 (0 Errors, SQL Support: Passed, Summary: Successful)
after reboot or even before the sqlserver.exe shows its still version 9.00.4262.00 and still shows up in Microsoft updates and doesn't show the install at all in Add/Remove Programs
I'm at a complete loss on what to do.. I've tried the RTM download and the Auto Update method both with same results. Tried shutting down all services in relation as well. I'm lost

SQL Server 2005 to Oracle via OLE DB

I've got a project where I need to access several tables in an Oracle (9i) database from SQL Server 2005. I installed the Oracle OLE DB provider and the Oracle 9i client. I can access the tables via the Oracle client without issue. I tried creating a "Linked Server" in SQL 2005 Mgmt Studio. Sometimes I can get it to test the connection successfully, but I can never get it to read anything from the database.
Depending on what configuration I use, (MS OLEDB Provider, or the Oracle OLEDB Provider - varying the in process flag and other values) the errors range from not being able to instantiate the OLEDB provider to the server just returning an result that the table I'm trying to access doesn't exist.
I keep reading in the forums about Transparent Gateways.... Do I have to have a gateway running for this? Shouldn't I be able to access the Oracle tables via OLEDB?
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.
J

I finally got everything working by using the ORacle 10x OLEDB client to create a linked server. You also have to set the OLEDB "allow in process" flag to get it going.
With the 10x client and the in process flag, everything worked exactly as expected.

I plan to upgrade the SSRS 2005 SP2 enterprise edition in our internal web server to 2005 SP4, the Reporting server database is hosted in another sql server in sql server 2005 SP4. Do I need to do anything on the reporting server database side?

My question is what the steps do I need to take to upgrade SSRS from 2005 SP2 to SP4. The web server that host the SSRS is in 2005 SP2, and the OS is in window 2003.
Our SSRS report server and report server database are in different servers. The SSRS in the web server is in 2005 SP2 enterprise edition, the report server database is in sql server 2005 SP4 enterprise edition.
To upgrade the SSRS in web server from 2005 sp2 to sp4, do I need to backup/restore the encryption key? Nothing will be changed in the report server database. We will still pointing to the same database in the current server, all
I wanted to do is performing a inplace upgrade of SSRS from 2005 SP2 to SP4.
Any response will be greate appreciated. Thank you!
Li-hui Chen

Hi Lihui Chen,
According to your description, you want to install the Services Pack 4 for SQL Server. Right?
In SQL Server, Services Packs are used for fixing issues of current version product. It's not an Upgrade, you don't have to backup/restore your encryption key. You just need to download the Service Pack 4 on:
Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 4 RTM . Please make sure you have administrative rights on the computer to install SQL Server 2005 SP4. For more information, see links below:
How to obtain the latest service pack for SQL Server 2005
List of the issues that are fixed in SQL Server 2005 Service Pack 4

JPA and SQL Server 2005's Identity Don't Play Nice

I am hoping someone with a little more senior knowledge of JPASQL Server 2005 can point me in the right direction involving SQL Server 2005.
What I am discovering is JPA and SQL Server 2005 do not playing nice together when you use the IDENTITY capability for
a primary key. Let me explain. "...when using the IDENTITY as the generator type, the value for the identity field MAY NOT be
available BEFORE the entity data is saved in the database because typically it is generated when a record is committed."
My problem is this.
I have two separate entities using another entity, for example a car has a wheel and a truck has a wheel. I can go through the steps
of persisting the car and the wheel with no problem. My problem begins when I try to
find the wheel (by wheel description) for the truck. The query finds the wheel, but does not return the primary key for wheel.
Therefore, using the PK inside a query generates this error:
java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: An instance of a null PK has been incorrectly provided for this find operation. What has been my appraoch to get the entity to commit to the database is to use the following sequence for the Entity Manager.
entityManager.persist(wheel);
entityManager.flush(); I have assumed to this point this action would persist my data because I have been able to retrieve the PK immidately after these steps.
However, multiple actions taking place within the same transaction, appears to render the persist and flush steps useless. My initial thought
is to wrap the wheel creation within a new transaction so when the method/transaction completes, the data would be in the database. This
has not worked.
I hope I have explained this clear for others to follow. I apologize in advance if I have not. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Think that i have above 2 tables in SQL server 2005.
select * from table1 where T1Col1 in ( select T1Col1 from Table2)
should i except error for the above query ?
But SQL server 2005 is not giving any error , it is simple resulting all rows from Table1
regards
ranganadh kodali

You will not receive any type of error because T1Col1 does exist in Table1 and even inside the parens
you are still within the context of the same query, the reason for this is that SQL Server allows you to use the values of the outer table inside the inner condition, you will find tons of examples of this usage when people use exists, here is one that's perfectly
valid:
select *
from table1
where exists (select 1 from Table2 where T1Col1 = T2Col1)
so in your particular query what's happening is that you're selecting a kind of "constant" value in your inner query, similar to doing this:
select 'constant' as myCol from Table2;
just that the 'constant' value is really coming from your outer table.
please mark as answer if it helps! :)

Importing data from SQL Server 2005 database

Dear Friends
Scenario:
We have built an application for which the database is SQL Server 2005.
Now, we have planned to switch over to Oracle 8i database.
There is a field with data type as Varchar(Max) – which can hold data with a maximum length of 231 characters (SQL Server 2005)
In Oracle 8i, the Varchar2 max size 4000 bytes or characters.
We want to import the data from SQL Sever 2005 database into Oracle 8i database.In the process, the value for the particular field whose data type set as Varchar(Max) in SQL Server 2005 and contains more than 4000 characters gets automatically truncated while importing into oracle.
We want the entire characters stored in the field to be imported into oracle database.
Please suggest solutions.
Thanks and regards
Bharath Kumar V

Use CLOB if the data is purely text data. BLOB otherwise.
But the question is why you want to switch over to an Oracle version which is de-supported by Oracle?

Transfer data from Oracle 7 to SQL server 2005

Hello guys,
I am new in Oracle and I need some help from you:
I have an Oracle database 7 and I need to transfer some tables into MS SQL Server 2005.
Is there any ORACLE utility (compatible with ver 7) to help me in this task?
If not, what is the way to trasfer data from a Oracle database 7 to SQL Server 2005?
Thank in advance

SQL Server can access Oracle database via the Linked Database feature however I do not know if you could find a Oracle 7 database compatiable Oracle client to use with a SQL Server 2005 database. i would not even try to configure this.
What I suggest is you use SQLPlus to spool out delimited data into flat files, copy/FTP etc ... those flat files to your SQL Server box, and use BCP to load the data into SQL Server.
There have been numberous posts of generating delimited flat files from Oracle data posted here on the forum but here is one method that will work on version 7:
How do I export a database table to a flat file ?

Troble configuring Hyperion Shared Services with SQL Server 2005

I recently installed SQL server (SQL SERVER 2005) in my machine and then am trying to install Hyperion (9.3.1) products. I started with Shared services. It was installed successfully. Problem is occuring when am trying to configure Shared service with SQL database using Hyperion Configuration utility (9.3.1)
The error which is popping up is
Unable to connect to the database for the product Hyperion Shared Services.
Things which I tried from my end
1. Made sure TCP IP Protocol was enabled in SQL server configuration server.
2. hypuser was created in SQl server.
3. hypdb was created in SQL server.
4. Was having dynamic IP address so install Loopback adapter to obtain Static IP address and port.
5. Port and IP address was correct.
Let me know where I am going wrong.
Any help will be greatly appreciated.

Finally got it fixed firewall settings needed to be change : This document helped me a lot to troubleshoot the issue
An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 2)
This problem may occur when SQL Server 2005 is not configured to accept incoming local and remote connections, which is disabled by default in SQL Server 2005 Express Edition, SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition and also SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition. To solve the connection forbidden problem, SQL Server 2005 needs to configure to allow incoming local and remote connections.
Firstly, ensure that SQL Server 2005 is configured properly to allow incoming connections on the instance of database server, else enable and turn on the local and remote connections setting.
Click Start button, then go to Programs or All Programs, then select Microsoft SQL Server 2005, followed by Configuration Tools. Click and run the SQL Server Surface Area Configuration.
On the “SQL Server 2005 Surface Area Configuration” page, click Surface Area Configuration for Services and Connections.
On the “Surface Area Configuration for Services and Connections” page, expand Database Engine tree, click Remote Connections.
Select Local and remote connections, or Local connections only which applicable only if there is no remote system tries to connect to the SQL Server, useful when you just trying to connect and authenticate with the server after installing.
Select the appropriate protocol to enable to local and/or remote connections environment. To ensure maximum compatibility, select Using both TCP/IP and named pipes.
Click Apply button when done.
Click OK button when prompted with the message saying that “Changes to Connection Settings will not take effect until you restart the Database Engine service.”
On the “Surface Area Configuration for Services and Connections” page, expand Database Engine, then click Service.
Click Stop button to stop the SQL Server service.
Wait until the MSSQLSERVER service stops, and then click Start button to restart the MSSQLSERVER service.
Secondly, SQL Server Browser service has to be enabled to allow for local and remote connections if SQL Server 2005 is running by using an instance name and users are not using a specific TCP/IP port number in the connection string.
Click Start button, then go to Programs or All Programs, then select Microsoft SQL Server 2005, followed by Configuration Tools. Click and run the SQL Server Surface Area Configuration.
On the “SQL Server 2005 Surface Area Configuration” page, click Surface Area Configuration for Services and Connections.
On the “Surface Area Configuration for Services and Connections” page, click SQL Server Browser.
Select Automatic as the Startup type to start SQL Server Browser service automatically every time system starts.
Click Apply button.
Click on Start button to start the service immediately.
Click OK button.
Finally, if remote computer needs to connect and access SQL Server, an exceptions in Windows Firewall included in Windows XP SP2 (Service Pack 2), Windows Server 2003 and Windows Vista needs to be created. If you’re using third-party firewall system, the exception rules also needed to be created to allow external remote connections to the SQL Server 2005 and SQL Server Browser Service to communicate through the firewall, else connections will be blocked. Consult the firewall manual for more details. Each instance of SQL Server 2005 must have its own exception, together with an exclusion for SQL Server Browser service.
SQL Server 2005 uses an instance ID as part of the path when you install its program files. To create an exception for each instance of SQL Server, you must identify the correct instance ID. To obtain an instance ID, follow these steps:
Click Start button, then go to Programs or All Programs, then select Microsoft SQL Server 2005, followed by Configuration Tools. Click and run the SQL Server Configuration Manager.
In “SQL Server Configuration Manager”, click the SQL Server Browser service in the right pane, right-click the instance name in the main window, and then click Properties.
On the “SQL Server Browser Properties” page, click the Advanced tab, locate the instance ID in the property list.
Click OK button.
Then create an exception for SQL Server 2005 in Windows Firewall.
Click on Start button, the click on Run and type firewall.cpl, and then click OK. For Windows Vista, type firewall.cpl in Start Search box and press Enter key, then click on Allow a program through Windows Firewall link on left tasks pane.
In “Windows Firewall”, click the Exceptions tab, and then click Add Program.
In the “Add a Program” window, click Browse button.
Click the C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Binn\sqlservr.exe executable program, click Open button. MSSQL.1 with is a placeholder for the instance ID that is obtained from previous procedure. Note that the path may be different depending on where SQL Server 2005 is installed.
Click OK button.
Repeat steps 1 through 5 for each instance of SQL Server 2005 that needs an exception.
For SQL Server Browser service, locate the C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\90\Shared\sqlbrowser.exe executable program, and click Open button.
Click OK button.

First of all please be aware HSODBC has been desupported since 15th of March 2008. When starting a new project you should start with a supported product and this product is called DG4ODBC and it is available as release 11.
Looking at the provided listener it shows several configurations issues.
Have a lokk at yout tnsnames.ora => you mentioned to use the listener servicing port 1521.
This Listener serves 2 SIDs with the same name:
SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = yscc02)
(ORACLE_HOME = /u01/app/oracle/product/101)
(PROGRAM = extproc)
(SID_DESC =
(SID_NAME = yscc02)
(ORACLE_HOME = /u01/app/oracle/product/101)
(PROGRAM = hsodbc)
(ENVS = "LD_LIBRARY_PATH=/u01/app/oracle/product/101/lib32:/usr/lib:/u01/app/oracle/product/101/hs/lib32")
So when you now connect, the listener does not know which service to spawn. Please check out Metalink note:
Note.238771.1 How to Setup Generic Connectivity - HSODBC - on AIX
when you want to continue using HSODBC although I strongly recommend you to use DG4ODBC which is configured as mentioned in Metalink note:
Note.561033.1 How to Setup DG4ODBC on 64bit Unix OS (Linux, Solaris, AIX, HP-UX)

I want to use Golden Gate to connect MS SQL Server 2005 with Oracle 10g dat

I want to use Golden Gate to connect MS SQL Server 2005 with Oracle 10g database. So, i have installed both databases on different pc's on windows platform. MS SQL Server 2005 on windows XP and Oracle 10g on windows 2003.
I have configure Golden Gate step by step by following oracle guideline:

That should work, just in case try adding DBLOGIN before USERID

SQL Server 2005 upgrade & migrate to 2012 method

Hi,
The situation is like this:
Currently I have SQL Server 2005 on an old Windows Server 2003. The target is to let SQL Server 2012 on Windows Server 2012 with the databases migrated over. The new server with Windows Server 2012 was prepared.
Originally my plan is to install SQL Server 2005 on the new Windows Sever 2012 first, migrate the database from old server to here, then upgrade SQL Server to 2012. Then found out this method cannot be used due to SQL Server 2005 is not compatible with Windows
Server 2012.
Alternative suggestions are appreciated.

SQL Server 2012 supports upgrade from the following versions of SQL Server:
SQL Server 2005 SP4 or later
SQL Server 2008 SP2 or later
SQL Server 2008 R2 SP1 or late
So please make sure that your existing sql server 2005 is upgraded to SP4 or later.
Then best way is use side by side.
Windows Sever 2012 on you new machine and sql server 2012.
Then use side by side method to migrate your old sql 2005 to new version 2012, ( moving backups and restore, logins, jobs, packages, configurations, maintenance plans,
linked server details and more. )
If you use in-place the in case of any issues we cant do anything to bring back the server to old version or fixing the issue may take lot of time. side by side its matter of navigating the connection and changing the connection setting for application and
putting databases for use ( online from single user or may be from online to online )
