Able to connect via local host but not server

I have a page that connects to SQL server. It works fine when running in local host but when I publish to the server, I get the following:

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)

Any ideas on where to start?

Thanks,

Mark

a question for setup experts please

hello,
i have sql server 2000 on my local machine (with enterprise manager etc).
i want to host a website (on a dedicated server) which talks to sql server,
but i dont want to buy another license for the server machine that i am
going to host on (too much money!).
my question is:
is there a way around this? ie: is there a free engine or something that i
can install on my webserver which just stores the datafiles so my webpages
will work.
ideally i would like to DTS data to and from the live server, and also use
my local enterprise manager to view/update data on the live server?
is this possible?
thanksDepending on your requirements, you could deploy MSDE.
Not sure what this has to do with alt.photography though...

Keep in mind that you can buy a developer edition of SQL Server for $49 to
develop your application. If the SQL Server edition you already have is
either Standard or Enterprise you could move that edition to your web
server and use the developer edition on your client. But you cannot use the
developer edition on your website.
MSDE might be legal for your web server if you have the appropriate
redistribution rights. MSDE also has some limitations on size and number of
concurrently executing queries. Check out the MSDE roadmap on MSDN as well
as the links from the KB above.

By 'DTS' do you mean 'DTC'? The MSDTC to be precise?
First off, make sure that the DTC process is running on both systems. Second, make sure that Network DTC Access is checked on both systems.
Hope that helps.

But, how to make sure that Network DTC Access is checked on both systems?

A new member could not be added to a local group because the member has the wrong account type

Hi all,

I installed SQL 2005 SP2 + ReportServices Add-in for Sharepoint (WSS 3.0). All it's OK until I try to grant database access in the Sharepoint Central Admin site.

I setup the Reporting Services Integration (Manage integration settings). I use the default SQL instance, I put the USERNAME and the PASSWORD of my ADMIN account in the ENTER CREDENTIALS windows.. When I click the "OK" button, I receive always the error ...

"A new member could not be added to a local group because the member has the wrong account type"

I tried a lot of things... without success.

Is there someone who can help me....

PS: There is no error in the LOG

Thanks

I am also having this same issue. I cannot seem to find any help for this out there by Google search or otherwise. I've seen some blip about installing on a domain controller. Please help.|||I discovered a workaround. I used the IP address of the DBMS instead of the local computer name. Then I used the DOMAINNAME\SP_Setup_User (or admin) account and password. This worked. Hopefully no ill effects.|||

Unfortunately, this approach didn't work for me. If any other idea, please let me know.

Thanks

Erik,

I came to the conclusion to use the IP address of the SQL Server instead of the name because, you know how you want to map a drive to the same server using two different user accounts? Well, you have to use the server name for one mapping and then something else for the second mapping, like the IP address. It probably has nothing to do with this problem, but it reminded me of it. So it did work, at least on my system. Again, I do not know if there are any obscure consequences of doing this. So far all is well. Maybe there is a Microsoft person listening in or someone who could lend some thoughts to the situation for you.

Hi Guys, had the same problem. Tried with IP address and yes it worked. However, when I went into Visual Studio and created a report when I went to deploy it a username/password form pops up. No matter what username/password is inserted can't get it to deploy. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Keith

|||

Try using Fully Qualified domain Name of the SQL Server..

and It Works!..

|||

do you mean servername\username & password because it did not work. I enterede servername/username in the reporting services UI and then went into visual studio to deploy (on same machine) but when I went to deploy you would enter servername/username and it would just keep poping up and never do anything.

Any thing to look at for the account. I have tried a user account and on last atempt I used administrator, but no luck.

Thanks for any help!

|||

I have done some more work on it and in sharepoint central administration, reporting services, manage integration services, set to windows account. and it all saves with out complaing. Now when I gointo Visual studio on the same machine as reporting service and sharepoint I no longer get a log in box but I get "a connection could not be made to the report server... this operation is not supported on a report server that is configured to run in sharepoint integration...

anybody and thoughts?

Thanks

|||

did some more work/investigation and I stumbled into that if you go the sharepoint site, document library and try to add the new document type of reporting services, it does not show up in the list. So I think everything deployed okay but it appears there is no link between sharepoint and report services. Also incase this helps, sharepoint is not in the default website, but is it's own web site that instead of www we have companyweb. Other that reporting services sharpoint works fine.

Help!

|||

Keith,

Our report server web service is at http://{Report Server servername}:8080/ReportServer2K5, port 8080 being the new port of the re-enabled IIS default web site. However, the deployment properties for the VS 2005 report project actually had to be set like so: (1) TargetDataSourceFolder and TargetReportFolder = http://{SharePoint servername}:{Admin Site Port Number}/{Our Report Library Name}/, and (2) TargetServerURL = http://{SharePoint servername}:{Admin Site Port Number}/. I can deploy right from Visual Studio with this configuration. The account used for the Windows service identity is the same as that used for SharePoint administration in my case. There are a myriad of possible combinations for these accounts, though.

However, the deployment properties for the VS 2005 report project actually had to be set like so: (1) TargetDataSourceFolder and TargetReportFolder = http://{SharePoint servername}:{Admin Site Port Number}/{Our Report Library Name}/, and (2) TargetServerURL = http://{SharePoint servername}:{Admin Site Port Number}/. I can deploy right from Visual Studio with this configuration. The account used for the Windows service identity is the same as that used for SharePoint administration in my case. There are a myriad of possible combinations for these accounts, though.

A new member could not be added to a local group because the member has the wrong account type

Hi all,

I installed SQL 2005 SP2 + ReportServices Add-in for Sharepoint (WSS 3.0). All it's OK until I try to grant database access in the Sharepoint Central Admin site.

I setup the Reporting Services Integration (Manage integration settings). I use the default SQL instance, I put the USERNAME and the PASSWORD of my ADMIN account in the ENTER CREDENTIALS windows.. When I click the "OK" button, I receive always the error ...

"A new member could not be added to a local group because the member has the wrong account type"

I tried a lot of things... without success.

Is there someone who can help me....

PS: There is no error in the LOG

Thanks

Hi Did anyone have a resolution to this situation. We're getting the same error message following the same sequence of events. Any assistance is appreciated.

I am also having this same issue. I cannot seem to find any help for this out there by Google search or otherwise. I've seen some blip about installing on a domain controller. Please help.|||I discovered a workaround. I used the IP address of the DBMS instead of the local computer name. Then I used the DOMAINNAME\SP_Setup_User (or admin) account and password. This worked. Hopefully no ill effects.|||

Unfortunately, this approach didn't work for me. If any other idea, please let me know.

Thanks

Erik,

I came to the conclusion to use the IP address of the SQL Server instead of the name because, you know how you want to map a drive to the same server using two different user accounts? Well, you have to use the server name for one mapping and then something else for the second mapping, like the IP address. It probably has nothing to do with this problem, but it reminded me of it. So it did work, at least on my system. Again, I do not know if there are any obscure consequences of doing this. So far all is well. Maybe there is a Microsoft person listening in or someone who could lend some thoughts to the situation for you.

Hi Guys, had the same problem. Tried with IP address and yes it worked. However, when I went into Visual Studio and created a report when I went to deploy it a username/password form pops up. No matter what username/password is inserted can't get it to deploy. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Try using Fully Qualified domain Name of the SQL Server..

and It Works!..

|||

do you mean servername\username & password because it did not work. I enterede servername/username in the reporting services UI and then went into visual studio to deploy (on same machine) but when I went to deploy you would enter servername/username and it would just keep poping up and never do anything.

Any thing to look at for the account. I have tried a user account and on last atempt I used administrator, but no luck.

Thanks for any help!

I have done some more work on it and in sharepoint central administration, reporting services, manage integration services, set to windows account. and it all saves with out complaing. Now when I gointo Visual studio on the same machine as reporting service and sharepoint I no longer get a log in box but I get "a connection could not be made to the report server... this operation is not supported on a report server that is configured to run in sharepoint integration...

anybody and thoughts?

Thanks

|||

did some more work/investigation and I stumbled into that if you go the sharepoint site, document library and try to add the new document type of reporting services, it does not show up in the list. So I think everything deployed okay but it appears there is no link between sharepoint and report services. Also incase this helps, sharepoint is not in the default website, but is it's own web site that instead of www we have companyweb. Other that reporting services sharpoint works fine.

Help!

A few things to do with store variables.

Okay,

I'm creating a small application for my local school district that will allow them to do a small management of inventory.

    Is there a way to create an executable script that will create the default databases the first time? If so, what all do I need to do for the script and to make it execute? I want to make a section in my OPTIONS area where users can put the path to their db (will not be hosted on the same PC as the software) along with the username and password for the db. I know I can store this information in a predetermined variable in the program so that it can reference it off and on.

Could someone please help me with this..... If it's in the wrong forum please let me know.

Thanks,

QWERTYtech

What kind of database does your program use? Full SQL Server, SQL Server Express, Access, or other?|||SQL Express|||

Move the thread from Visual Basic General. There are more exports on storing variables in SQL Express database. I believe you can get satisfying answers in this forum.

Thanks again for your question.
