Connection to SQL Server 2005 Express?

Posted By: Posted Date: August 29, 2010 Points: 0 Category :Sql Server

Hi all, I've been reading other posts for awhile now and I can't figure out what I'm doing wrong. I'm a Web Developer and not a DBA. I have SQL Server 2005 Express installed on my machine and it's working just fine. I also have the Management Studio Express CTP installed and working. I'm trying to connect to a database using a username and password (from ColdFusion Server which is working fine for external Oracle and Access databases, so that's not an issue), so I set up the server to allow mixed mode authentication. I can log in to the Management Studio using Windows authentication OR the username and password without any issues. I have TCP/IP enabled in the Configuration Manager and 127.0.0.1 enabled. This seems like a ridiculous question, but I need to know the servername, port, username and password to connect to the database. I'm trying all combinations of things but nothing's working. If I put in 127.0.0.1 as the server, 1433 as the port, and use the username and password that worked in Management Studio I get this: java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]Error establishing socket. Connection refused: connect The root cause was that: java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SQLServer JDBC Driver]Error establishing socket. Connection refused: connect If I use MACHINENAME\SQLEXPRESS I get this: java.sql.SQLException: [Macromedia][SQLServer

SQL Server Express 2005 connection timeout issue.

Client: Sql Sever Management Studio Express 2005 (SSMSE) on Vista Server: Sql Server 2005 Express on Windows Server 2008 Standard When I first try to log into SSMSE from the client machine, the login operation times out. When I retry, the login succeeds almost immediately. If I close the app and re-open it, the same thing happens. This appears to be infinitely repeatable. I am able to reproduce this behavior using SQLCMD.exe. Here's the error: "Timeout expired. The timeout elapsed prior to completion of the operation or the server is not responding. (Microsoft SQL Server)" The technical details reference Error Number -2 What may be unique or tricky about this client's network is that it's a mixture of IPv4 and IPv6. I believe the server is configured for both, but honestly the networking side of things is outside of my expertise. Has anyone else experienced a problem like this? I'm looking for some troubleshooting tips and of course a flat-out answer :-). Thank you in advance for your time and expertise - I hope I've broken the problem down to its simplest form. Will.

Windows 7 connection to SQL Server Express 2005 on Windows Server 2003

I have SQL Server Express 2005 running on Windows Server 2003 R2.

I have several remote machines running Windows XP that connect to the database engine with no problem. I'm using an Access adp to connect.

Just connected a Windows 7 machine and installed SQL Server Express 2005 on it and cannot connect to the db engine on the server.

Error is:

Test connection failed because of an error in initializing provider. Login failed for user ''. The user is not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection.

I am on the network and connected fine and can access files on the server. I am using the same connection protocols in the Data Link Properties that the XP machines use.

Any ideas are greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

Instance and Default connection properties on SQL Server 2005

We had a sql server fail and I have been having troubles. I compared the connection properties on the server properties and noticed that multiple default settings are no longer set. So I'm wondering if during the failure these could have some gotten flipped. DB's that worked all of a sudden don't work and we had to migrate to a different instance. I have never changed any of the setings below and wonder what impact they would have if I changed them back to the default of an installed instance? ansi warning is checked ansi padding is checked ANSI NULLS is checked arithmetic abort is checked quoted identified is checked No Count is checked concat null yields null is checked Could anyone tell me how clearing these checked options will impact my db? -- Paul Bergson MVP - Directory Services MCITP: Enterprise Administrator MCTS, MCT, MCSE, MCSA, Security+, BS CSci 2008, Vista, 2003, 2000 (Early Achiever), NT4 http://www.pbbergs.com Twitter @pbbergs Please no e-mails, any questions should be posted in the NewsGroup This posting is provided "AS IS" with no warranties, and confers no rights.

SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Service Pack 3 (KB955706) update is successful but repeats installin

Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Service Pack 3 (KB955706) (update 1 of 1) This update seems to be stuck in a loop of installing, each time it successfull installs acccording to automatic updates. Then says it requires installing again straight away. This has been happening for 10 days now. I have tried a manual update from the website rather than automatic updates, no change. Any ideas why? Have posted in Windows update which is where I think the problem lies but they have suggested I post here also.

Which SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Service Pack to Install?

I have Windows 2008 Small Business Server Standard Edition. When I scan for updates I get two different SQL service packs showing up, with the same KB955706 number. I'm wondering which I should install, or if both, what order to install them in? The first one is labeled: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Service Pack 3 The second one is labeled: Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition with Advanced Services Service Pack 3 For applications, I have Blackbaud The Financial Edge v7.78 (accounting package for clubs) installed that uses SQL Server 2005 Express Edition for its database engine. The new upgrade for this software requires SP3 which is why I need to know which service pack to install. Also, please let me know if there are any tricks to getting the service packs installed on 2008 SBS Standard Edition. I know sometimes registry settings need to be changed for SQL service packs to be installed properly. Thank you for your help.

Got an XP Sp3 box - uninstalled SQL server 2008 Express r2. Now I'm trying to install SQL server 2005 and am getting the ol' MSXML 6 SP2 error which is keeping SQL Server 2005 from installing. Last time this happend there was the handy Installer Clean Up Utility but now you go to http://support.microsoft.com/kb/290301 and it's gone. So what is the solution now? Everything I've googled says to use the installer cleaner but it doesn't exist now so what now?
