Unable to establish connection to MS SQL 2005 from topology manager in ODI

Hi,
My environment:
WinXP pro SP3, MS SQL SERVER2005, Oracle data integrator latest version.
MS SQL 2005 JDBC 2.0 DRIVER, JRE 1.4.2
com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://testserver:1433;SelectMethod=cursor;databaseName=AdventureWorksDW;integratedSecurity=false
I set the classpath, odi_home path and path poiting to jdbc driver in odi home->drivers and to odi->jre->1.4.2
Before i begin, i would like to mention, i have gone through many forum topicson this one and made sure my string is all right.
When I try to create a new data server in topology manager, it says connection is successful, but after that when i try to click OK, it gives me a error:

Based on these, I have JDBC 2.0 (sqljdbc and sqljdbc4.0) files.
I copy only sqljdbc to my classpath = C:\OraHome_1\oracledi\drivers\sqljdbc.jar
my ODI_JAVA_HOME = C:\OraHome_1\jre\jre1.5.0_11
Same error in topology manager.
Data server name: test.ahu.edu, 1444
Conntection string:

    The bcp program executes successfully on a local instance of SQL Server.

    The error has nothing to do with BCP as such, but it is a connection problem. That is, for some reason you cannot connect to your instance from the VM. I would exect that you face a similar problem if you tried SSMS.
    It could be a firewall issue, but prelogin suggests that you reach the instance. But possibly you don't come far enough for the login failure to be recorded. Possibly the instance is not configured to audit login failures.
    The message you would see would be similar to

  • Client unable to establish connection; 08001;

    Hello,
    My SSAS multidimensional cube processing fails with the following error:
    "OLE DB error: OLE DB or ODBC error: A network-related or instance-specific error has occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. Server is not found or not accessible. Check if instance name is correct and if SQL Server is configured to

    It was running fine with no errors till yesterday. Does anyone know what may be wrong?
    Could it be because of a new firewall rule on the server that host the SQL server?
    Appreciate your help!
    Thanks!

    Hi Nihcas,
    Based on the error message, it seems that the account cannot connect to the data source of the SQL Server Analysis Services database. And you said that a new firewall rule on the server that host the SQL server, then this issue can be caused by this firewall.
    To access an instance of the SQL Server through a firewall, you must configure the firewall on the computer that is running SQL Server to allow access. The firewall is a component of Microsoft Windows. In your scenario, please try to configure the Windows
    Firewall to Allow SQL Server Access and check if the issue is persists or not.

  • Connecting to SQL 2005 from Oracle error

    I have an Oracle Database and SQL Database on the same server and wants to use odbc to connect to the SQL 2005 database and query tables of my choice.
    I did configured the ODBC correctly and called the DSN TSH_ARCHIVE. I have tested it and it works great. But each time I run the following query I get error:

    Hi,
    Thanks for the files.
    There are some problems with the configuration.
    listener.ora -
    LISTENERTSE_ARCHIVE =
    (ADDRESS_LIST=

    This should be -

    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = IPC)(KEY = EXTPROC1521))

    (SID_DESC=
    (SID_NAME=tpisdb06)
    (ORACLE_HOME=J:\app\product\11.1.0\db_2)
    The SID_LIST_LISTENER needs to match the actual listener name and the program for 11g DG4ODBC is called dg4odbc and not hsodbc.
    tnsnames.ora -
    TSE_ARCHIVE =
    (DESCRIPTION=
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = TSE_ARCHIVE)(PORT=1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVICE_NAME = TSE_ARCHIVE)
    (HS=OK)
    The HOST name - TSE_ARCHIVE does not match the HOST in the listener, so it should be -
    TSE_ARCHIVE =
    (DESCRIPTION=
    (ADDRESS_LIST =
    (ADDRESS = (PROTOCOL = TCP)(HOST = xxxxx.ita.doc.gov)(PORT=1521))
    (CONNECT_DATA =
    (SERVICE_NAME = TSE_ARCHIVE)
    (HS=OK)
    I've changed the actual name to xxxxx so replace that with the name in the original file.
    Change the files, stop and start the listener then try again.
    If you still have an ora-12154 error then send the output from the following SQL -
    select db_link, host from user_db_links; <=== as the user getting the error
    and
    select db_link, host from dba_db_links; <===== as a DBA user

    Hi,
    I have installed MS SQL 2005 Evaluation version(downloaded from microsoft site) on my win2k3 Enterprise Edition I am writing a java application that connects to MS SQL 2005.

    Please reply.
    Thanks and Regards,

    First aid check list for "connection refused":
    - Check host name in connect string.
    - Check port number in connect string.
    - Try numeric IP address of server host in connect string, in case name server is hosed.
    - Are there any firewalls between client and server blocking the port.
    - Check that the db server is running.
    - Check that the db server is listening to the port. On the server, try: "telnet localhost the-port-number". Or "netstat -an", there should be a listening entry for the port. You need to configure the database to accept TCP connections; read the documentation or google.
    - Try "telnet server-host-name the-port-number" from the client, to see if firewalls are blocking it.
    - If "telnet" fails: try telnet with the numeric ip address.
    - If "telnet" fails: does it fail immediately or after an obvious timeout? How long is the timeout?
    - Does the server respond to "ping serverhost" or "telnet serverhost" or "ssh serverhost"?

  • Connecting to network SQL Server from SQL Developer

    Hi All,
    I am trying to connect to network SQL Server from SQLDeveloper but I am unable to connect( I am getting could not connect to SQL Server...). I have searched many sites but could not find the solution. I am giving HostName as MachineName\InstanceName and keeping the port as 1433.
    Can anyone explain how that connection string should be given.
    Thanks.

    From help with additional comments
    Host Name: Host system for the Microsoft SQL Server or Sybase Adaptive Server database.
    E.g., sybase.myCompany.org (DNS name or IP address)
    Port: TCP/IP Port on which Microsoft SQL Server or Sybase Adaptive Server will listen.
    As mentioned by others, need to know how server is configured. Common values: 1433, 5000
    Retrieve Database: Name of the Microsoft SQL Server or Sybase Adaptive Server database.
    Once the other data is correct, press this to populate list box and select which database you want associated with this connection. E.g., pixar, pubs2, etc.

  • How to connect to a Sql server from Oracle using db link

    Hi All,
    Does anybody have any idea about how to connect to a sql server from oracle database using db link to syncronize the data? I need to pull the data from Sql server table to Oracle tables and relay messages back to the sql server.
    Thank you,
    Praveen.

    we have 2 products - DG4MSQL and DG4ODBC.
    DG4ODBC is for free and requires a 3rd party ODBC driver and it can connect to any 3rd party database as long as you use a suitable ODBC driver
    DG4MSQL is more powerfull as it is designed for MS SQL Server databases and it supports many functions it can directly map to SQL Server equivalents - it can also call remote procedures or participtae in distributed transactions. Please be aware DG4MSQL requires a license - it is not for free.
    Check out Metalink and you'll find notes how to configure both products.

  • Connect to MS Sql Server from Java Source

    Hi,
    Is there any way I could connect to ms sql server from Java source? I know I can call java source from function thats easy but what I really want is capability to connect to non-oracle(MS SQL server) from my java source and then call it from function.
    I don't know if JDBC driver for SQL server is even installed/available. Is there a way I could find it out form my IDE? I know sqlJ does compile but I have never used sqlj. help!!!

    You'll probably have better luck in a Java forum or a Microsoft forum.

  • Upgrading sql 2005 from sp to sp 3

    hi all
    i have a question. i need to upgrade my sql 2005 from sp 2 to sp 3 on my live environment because windows7 needs sp3. would there be any issues if i upgrade to sp3?
    i just download sp3 into my server and run it?
    thanks!
    prem

    Hi Prem,
    Windows7 is not officially supported yet.  If you have issue, it must be related to windows7.  SP3 should not be an issue.
    Thanks,

  • Coldfusion connection to MS SQL 2005

    Please help with this issue if you have any suggestions. I am
    trying to establish a connection from my IIS server with ColdFusion
    to another local server with an MS SQL 9.0 database. I can connect
    to this database using Enterprise from another computer, but when I
    use the same username and password within ColdFusion I get the
    following error:
    Connection verification failed for data source: FORMS
    java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC
    Driver][SQLServer]Login failed for user 'domain\coldfusion'. The
    user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.
    The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException:
    [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver][SQLServer]Login failed for user
    'domain\coldfusion'. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL
    Server connection.
    I have reinstalled ColdFusion with no errors and have also
    installed the MS JDBC driver for MS SQL 2005 but still get the same
    error.
    Thanks for any suggestions you might have.

    If there is anyone else with this problem I have something
    that you may want to try. This did work for me and I'm able to
    connect to SQL 2005 using ODBC Socket. The IIS computer was using
    system credentials and not the ColdFusion credentials I had
    created.
    On the ColdFusion application server goto the Properties of
    CF's ODBC server and agent. Under LogOn change the LogOn
    information to the username and password you have set up for
    ColdFusion for both and restart these services. When setting up
    your ODBC Socket do not include username or password information.
    Hopefully CF8 will include Windows Authentication. Even with
    this workaround we may need to switch to mixed authentication on
    SQL which is not ideal.

  • Error in Connecting to MS SQL 2005 via JDBC Driver

    Here's the setup
    CF MX7 resides on a centOS wid Apache 2.0 webserver box.
    I need to established a datasource connection between the
    Coldfusion server and a MSSQL 2005 Express+SP1 database sitting on
    a remote XP wid SP2 setup.
    I've also downloaded and installed on the /lib folder of the
    CFMX7 server the corresponding JDBC drivers (versions 1.1 and 1.0)
    for the MS SQL server.
    The thing is, this problem always occurs:
    Connection verification failed for data source:
    datasourcename
    java.sql.SQLException: [Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for
    JDBC]Error establishing socket.
    The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException:
    [Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC]Error establishing
    socket.
    The datasource connection info is as follows:
    CF Datasource Name: datasourcename_JDBCdriver
    JDBC URL:
    jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://192.168.0.47:1433;DatabaseName=nameofdatabase
    Driver Class: com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver
    Driver Name: mssql2005
    Username: sa
    Password: userdefinedpassword
    I've already tried these settings:
    * Enabled mix mode of authentication under the SQL server
    * Affix a /MSSQLSERVER instance name on the jdbc url setting
    "jdbc:microsoft:sqlserver://192.168.0.47\MSSQLSERVER:1433;DatabaseName=nameofdatabase"
    but a different error had occured:
    The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException:
    [Microsoft][SQLServer 2000 Driver for JDBC]The requested instance
    is either invalid or not running.
    so i remove it since its only an optional setting
    * Configured the SQL 2005 Express, under the SQL Server
    Configuration Manager, to listen to protocol TCP/IP under port 1433
    (this is the ONLY ENABLE protocol)
    I've checked using Telnet and netstat and the SQL service is
    normally listening to the said port.
    * Disabled windows firewall under XP (came with SP2)
    and even tried using other JDBC drivers such as:
    * macromedia drivers
    * jtds driver
    but to no avail.
    Is the problem still within the MS SQL 2005 Express wid
    XP+SP2 box or a connecting issue on the Cf server under the
    centOS/Apache machine?
    A little help would do wonders just about now.

    I had the same problem, but do not have express version. In
    the configuration manger, I viewed the properties of the enabled
    tcp/ip protocol. On the IP addresses tab, I found that though the
    IPs were enabled, the drop down beside active was no. I changed all
    to yes, applied it and restarted my instance. Then in the cf
    datasource I left the port blank and everything worked.
