I am trying to connect to SQL Server 2005 Express from Access using a
DSN-less connection string, but I keep encountering errors. What happens is
that I have a login form with 2 text boxes for users to enter their username
and password. When they have entered them, they click OK and Access tries to
connect using the connection string below.
After waiting a while I get an error, however the SQL Server Login box
appears and I am able to login using my sa login. So, since I know I can
connect to SQL Server, I think the problem must be with my connection string:
stConnect = "ODBC;DRIVER={SQL Native Client}" _
& ";Trusted_Connection=no" _
& ";SERVER=CHRIS\SQLEXPRESS" _
& ";Address=10.0.0.17,1433" _
& ";Network=DBMSSOCN" _
& ";DATABASE=authorDB 2005_11_11SQL" _
& ";UID=" & stUID _
& ";PWD=" & stPWD & ";"
These are the error messages I get when I try to connect:
Connection failed:
SQLState: '08001'
SQL Server Error: 10061
[Microsoft][SQL Native Client]TCP Provider: No connection could be made
because the target machine actively refused it.
Connection failed:
SQLState: '08001'
SQL Server Error: 10061
[Microsoft][SQL Native Client]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.
Connection failed:
SQLState: 'S1T00'
SQL Server Error: 0
[Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Login timeout expired
I should mention that I was able to use a similar connection string to
connect to an MSDE instance with no problems, so if need be I can just use
MSDE. Still, I would prefer to use SQL Server Express since it doesn't have
a workload governor. Also, this is on my local machine, so there shouldn't
be any network issues.
I would appreciate any assistance that anyone can offer.
Thanks,
Chris
By default SQL Express does not accept remote connections over TCP or Named
Pipes, you need to enable that explicitly.

|||Gert, I know that. I started the Browser and enabled TCP/IP. Like I said, I
can connect using the sa login, and techinically it's not a remote connection
as it's on a local machine. Thanks for the response, but I already checked
and that isn't the problem.

I
can connect using the sa login, and techinically it's not a remote connectio
n
as it's on a local machine. Thanks for the response, but I already checked
and that isn't the problem.

Error Connecting to Database (SQL Server 2005)!
Hello all,
I'm encountering an issue with regards to the default REMOTE LOGIN
settings to my database instance on SQL Server 2005.
The message I am recieving is as follows:
"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
Please check your database settings and credentials and confirm that
the server is reachable."
To my knowledge, I am able to see my database running, and that I have
already set up the DAC Surface Area Configuration, and ensured that
both "Named Pipes and TCP/IP protocols" have been enabled.
Whats wrong here guys...am I missing something?

Did you enable Remote Connections in the Surface Area Configuration tool?

with Named Pipes and Support.
But just so that I didn't do anything wrong..what would be the
essential steps here (if you were in my shoes)..?|||Mohd Al Junaibi wrote:

Is SQL running on your local workstation, or on a remote server? Can
you ping that remote server, via hostname and via IP address? Is there
a firewall involved?
Tracy McKibben
MCDBA
http://www.realsqlguy.com|||Yes, both MSSQL Service is running, and the agent is on as well. I
don't recall having the firewall running.
I'm beginning to think it has to do with credentials.
I'm running a command to create my WEBFORMS on a virtual directory,
it's experimental and called "Blinq" from Microsoft.
Anyways...I'll try to check things here..
thanks a million
