Connect Remotely To Sql Express Using MS Access
I want another PC (not local) to connect to SQL Express database using MS Access, I cannot find anything on how to start, is there a tutorial or guide somewhere.
The location is in another city and I want someone just to view the tables on their PC using Access.
I have set everything up my end with ports and TCP connections etc..
Many thanks

How To Remotely Connect To SQL Express Using SQL Authentification Across A LAN.
I hope helps some folks. I hope the links come through okay. Keywords: Help, Network, KB910437, SQL Express, Network, TCP/IP, User, SQL Server Express Networking After a long period of trial and error I finally figured out how to connect to SQL Server Express 2005 using SQL Authentication across an XP network. It required several rather involved several steps to do this. I wrote this document just in case I forgot what I did so that I could repair or re-create my network login(s). I will try to summarize the steps and include some HELP links to the web pages or my local €œSQL Books On Line€? pages that pointed me in the correct directions. The final piece to my puzzle was found here on the MSDN forums. Some links are better than others, while others may appear not to apply, so always check for links at the bottom of pages. Some were the best I could find after the fact, and not my original pages. Others were actually better, and may seem to be redundant. It€™s a work in progress. I left out many routine or obvious steps like telling you when to click OK. If you need to be told when, you have no business even considering trying this. Good Luck! PREREQUISITES: 1. You must have an instance of SQL Express installed and running. 2. You must have the SQL Browser service running. 3. You must have SQL Management Studio Express, SMSE, installed on your Server and to be able to log in as an administrator using Windows Authentification. Be familiar with Object Explorer under SMSE. 4. You must have SQL Server Surface Area Configuration properly installed. 5. You must have a functioning LAN, such as a Windows Workgroup. 6. You need a second computer on your LAN running SMSE Tools for testing. 7. You need a strong knowledge of how to use Control Panel. 8. You need to have KB910437 properly installed despite what this might say, although a neat diagnostic command is documented to verify your install. SUMMARY: You must enable SQL Networking You must configure SQL TCP/IP for the server instance. You must configure the server instance to use UDP Port 1433. You must enable a UDP port in your Windows Firewall for that server instance. Test the ability to remote log in using Windows Authentification using SMSE. You must create a Windows User account for SQL. You must create a SQL User login Auditing for that Windows User account. You must grant Permissions to do things for that SQL login. Now you can try to Log In across a network. DETAILS: SQL Networking must be setup by using the SQL Configuration Manager, SCM. The default installation leaves networking disabled. Select and use the TCP/IP protocol. Re-Start the SQL Server service. Using the SQL Server Surface Area Configuration Manager you must enable TCP/IP. Select €œServices and Connections€?. Choose your server instance and then select €œRemote Connections€?. Choose €œLocal and Remote€?, then €œUsing TCP/IP Only€?. Re-Start the SQL Server service. The server needs a means to talk to the outside world. Use SCM. Setup your IP address by right clicking on the TCP/IP protocol Choose €œProperties€?. On the €œProtocol€? tab leave the default settings, (Yes, 30000, Yes, No). Select the €œIP Address€? tab. Configure €œIP1€?, (Yes, Yes, enter your IP address, 0, blank). Configure €œIP All. Leave the default alone. Enter €œ1433€? on the second line. Re-Start the SQL Server service. The server needs to unlock the door to the outside world. Open Control Panel and select Windows Firewall. Click the €œExceptions€? tab and click on €œAdd Port€¦€?. For €œName€?, enter the name of the server instance. For €œPort Number€?, the same port as Step 3, 1433. Test to see if Windows log in works before enabling SQL Authentification. Using the SMSE, select the €œConnect€? icon in Object Explorer. Accept all defaults and see if it works. The server needs Windows user accounts setup. Set up a generic user account for SQL remote users. I suggest setting up an account for administrators to use. I suggest setting up an account for general users to use. SQL needs to add Windows users to SQL Logins. Convert a windows user login to a SQL login manually or automatically. The user needs to be assigned tasks that he is permitted to perform. Grant the user limited access, or just enough. Assign generic logins to groups, and then assign permissions to the groups. Use the pre-defined groups. By assigning users to groups. Test to see if SQL Authentification works locally, then remotely. Using the SMSE, select the €œConnect€? icon in Object Explorer.

Use VPN To Connect Remotely To SQL Express Server
Hello, I'm using a Windows XP Home laptop to connect to a network of one of my customers. The administrator of the customer has given me a username and password for a VPN connection. I've got the VPN connection working and I can ping the SQL Express server. This server is using Windows Authentication. For the users of my VB application we have added a group to the Active Directory and added this group as a user to the SQL Express Server. This works and the users can access the database from within the application. The SQL Express Server allows remote connections and the browser service is also running. I would like to use the SQL management Studio Express on my laptop to access the remote SQL Express server and manage the database files. To do this I first connect to the remote LAN using VPN and add the address of the SQL EXpress server in the field 'Server name' of the 'Connect to server' screen. The authentication field is set to Windows Authentication. However the username is greyed out and states the login for the SQL Express server on my laptop: laptopusername. How can I correct this? I don't know whether the username of the VPN connection is in the Active Directory. Should this be the case and should this user also be added to the login/user of the SQL Express server? And how do I get the Management Studio to connect to the remote server? Could XP Home be the bottleneck as it cannot logon to a domain? Anyone any ideas?

Cant Connect To Sql Server 2005 Express Remotely
im using sql server 2005 express for my vb.net projects but i can't connect to it using SQL Server Management Studio Express or through my vb.net code. I got a error message: An error has occourred while estabishing 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. I already enabled remote connections as suggested by this site http://www.programmingado.net/a-395/SQL-Server-2005-Express-and-remote-connection.aspx. Made sure that SQL Server and SQL Browser services are running. But I still cant connect.

Can't Connect Remotely To SQL Express On Virtual Private Server
I've just bought a Virtual Private Server Account because I want to host a number of different ASP.NET sites, each backed by their own SQL database. I've downloaded SQLEXPRE.EXE and SQLServer2005_SSMEE-x64.msi to the server and installed the database engine and Management Studio Express on the VPS. My problem is that I cannot access the SQLEXPRESS on my server from my local machine. The Management Studio Express cannot get logged in. I've used "Surface Area Configuration Manager" to allow "Local and remote connections" using TCP/IP only. I've used SQL Server Configuration Manager" to enable the TCP/IP protocol. After making these changes I've stopped and started the SQL server - and even rebooted the machine. I've created a login "Remote User" for this access. I've added sqlservr.exe as an exception to the firewall. What else do I need to do? Is there a simpleton's guide to completing this task?

Cannot Connect Remotely To SQLExpress Via SQL Server Management Studio Express
Hi all, I'm having a little trouble connecting to a SQLExpress instance on a remote domain using SQL Server Management Studio Express.I've read that by default the program is set up locally only, so have edited the Surface Area Configuration. It only gives me the option to edit 'Services and Connections' on the localhost, but have edited the Remote Connections to use TCP/IP and Named Pipes. In the Management Studio, I enter the server name, and login credentials. On the Connection Properties tab I changed the network protocol to TCP/IP though everytime I attempt to connect I get the following error message: Any help would be greatly appreciated. Rich

Unable To Connect Remotely After Upgrading A SQL Instance From Express To Enterprise
Problem: I upgraded a SQL Server Express instance to SQL Server Enterprise, but I'm unable to connect to the SQL server from any remote machine. Only local connections work -- and I've verified that Remote Connections are allowed in the SQL Surface Confg. utility. Scenario: Server1 has an SQL Enterprise edition installed as a default installation. SharePoint Server 2007 was installed later, and during that install a SQL Express edition instance was installed which is part of the standard SharePoint install. That Express instance contains all the SharePoint content databases. So Server1 has SQL instances: Server1 <default install running Enterprise> Server1OFFICESERVER <previously running SQL Express, now upgraded to Enterprise> After upgrading Server1OFFICESERVER to Enterprise, everything seemed to work fine (i.e. SharePoint works fine). However when I try to connect remotely to Server1OFFICESERVER I can't. I've verified through the SQL Surface configuration tool that remote connections are allowed. I've rebooted the server as well. I've tried connecting remotely using various PCs and various applications (e.g. SQL Server Mgmt Studio, Visual Studio, etc.). Any other ideas to try?

SQL Database User Account Access Remotely Via SQL Management Studio Express
Hi, I hope you can help.I have configured a Windows 2003 web server and SQL 2005 Server (on same box) to successfully allow remote connections and to allow access via SQL Server Management Studio Express 2005.The problem I have is that I want to restrict access to the databases on the server via the Management Studio to specific databases e.g. 1 database user "sees" only 1 database.I can configure it so that the user's remote access permissions do not allow access to other databases but they can still "see" the database listed in the Management Studio explorer.I can also configure it so that the users cannot see all the databases (by disabling View All Databases on SQL Server), but this means that they cannot not see their own database which they have permissions for.Is it impossible to have the desired behaviour of only displaying the database which the remote user accessing has permissions for and hiding all other databases?I have MSN'd,Googled and Yahoo'd this one to no avail :(Many thanksFergus

Can't Connect To SQL Server Express - Error Access Denied
Hi, I have been for years using the following code locally in native ASP (except different UID and PWD and file path for the msado15.dll) with SQL Server 2000 on XP to do my development and then I upload to the web site later (uses different objConn etc when live). I've now tried to use the same for SQL Server Express and Vista and always get the "does not exist or access denied" error ( 2147467259). I only want to use SQL Server locally from the machine I'm developing on as I upload the tested "ASP" code to the server which runs it. The SQL Server Browser is running and I have checked the Firewall exclusions for sqlservr.exe. Also I installed it with out Windows Logon (same as I had for SQL Server 2000). Any ideas, I tried using the Data Source=localhost instead of explicitly defing the path except that had no affect either, I also changed the rshstest_data.mbf to rshstest.mbf as well also to no affect as there appears a difference with this in 2000 and Express? Any suggestions would be appreciated, thanks.. <!-- METADATA TYPE="typelib" FILE="e:Program FilesCommon FilesSystemadomsado15.dll" --> <% on Error resume next objConn.Close Set objConn = Nothing Dim objConn Set objConn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection") objConn.Open "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Persist Security Info=False;" & _ "User ID=xx;Password=xx;Initial Catalog=rshstest;" & _ "Initial File Name=C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLData shstest_data.mdf" ' "Data Source=localhost;" Dim strConnect strConnect = "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Persist Security Info=False;" & _ "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Persist Security Info=False;" & _ "User ID=xx;Password=xx;Initial Catalog=rshstest;" & _ "Initial File Name=C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLData shstest_data.mdf" ' "Data Source=localhost;"

Cannot Connect Remotely To HTTP EndPoint
Dear all, I appologise that incarnations of this topic have been posted several times on this forum, however I cannot find a scenario that is the same as my own so I've resorted to starting a new thread. I can successfully create and connect remotely to an HTTP EndPoint on my Windows 2003 machine using Integrated security, the administrator username and password via my static IP address. I have read that Windows XP SP2 supports HTTP EndPoints, and it would be much more convenient for me to be able to create EndPoints in XP, and connect remotely. I have created the endpoint like so... CREATE ENDPOINT sql_tvr10 STATE = STARTED AS HTTP( PATH = '/sql/tvr10', AUTHENTICATION = (INTEGRATED), PORTS = (CLEAR)) FOR SOAP ( WEBMETHOD 'StoredProcedure1' (name='master.dbo.StoredProcedure1'), WSDL = DEFAULT, BATCHES = ENABLED, DATABASE = 'master', NAMESPACE = 'http://194.106.11.11/' ) In visual studio I can retrive a list of services running at http://localhost/sql/tvr10?WSDL absolutely fine. However, in Visual Studio on the remote machine, I cannot connect to http://194.106.11.11/sql/tvr10?WSDL - it prompts me for a username and password, however I cannot select the username - it is set to "Athlon64Guest" (Athlon64 is my server computer name). I have no passwords on any of my windows accounts (except administrator), and I have no database passwords set. Could someone please tell me how I should go about accessing the HTTP EndPoint? Just so it is clear, I am running a small LAN with no domain, just a workgroup. I need the client application to be able to connect via http regardless of which network it is on. I am using VS2005 and SQL Server 2005 Dev Ed. Many thanks in advance, Simon

Problem Using Client Tools To Remotely Connect To A SQL Server Instance On Another PC
Someone please help me before I loose all of my hair :mad: !!! I have two machines, a Windows Server 2003 machine running an SQL Server Standard Edition database instance and client tools (Enterprize Manager etc.), and a workstation PC running Windows XP SP2 which has just the SQL Server client tools (not an actual DB instance). I'm trying to use the Enterprize Manager client tool on my WinXP machine to remotely connect to the server instance on the server PC (via 'New SQL Server Registration' option). Everytime I do this I get the following error message: Login failed for user 'sa'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server Connection. Now I've tried using different usernames and passwords. I have login details for my SQL Server set to use Windows Login rather then SQL Server login, so I tried remotely connecting with the username and password for the server PC, tried 'sa' with server password, even tried setting up a new user on the server and logging in from the client with that, no luck. I've opened up correct ports 1433 on both PCs, even disabled the windows firewalls algother. Both server and client have SP3a installed, WinServer2003 has SP1 and XP SP2. So I'm at a loss to how to remotely connect to my SQL Server. FYI I know the server itself is working fine because I can connect to it using Enterprize Manager/Query Analyser on the local machine. Any ideas? Many thanks for your help!

Connecting Remotely Using SQL Server Express?
I'm new to MSSQL. At my work place, I'm using MSSQL and using SQL Query Analyzer to run queries and view all my database tables and structures. Now, I can work remotely at home for the time being. So, how do I get SQL Query Analyzer and be able to connect remotely to my database at work? I've downloaded SQL Server 2005 Express and it comes with SQL Server Management Studio, which looks similar to SQL Query Analyzer. The problem is though, how would I remotely connect to my database server at work? Is it possible to do this using SQL Server 2005 express? One thing I was advised to do was configure the TCP/IP Port number from 1433 to 1435. However, I do not see an option to configure that nor do not know how to connect remotely (I do have the IP, User, and Pass).

But when I transfered my database to my remote server I cannot connect (I changed the connection string to suit). <add name="ClubSiteDB" connectionString="Data Source=xx.xxx.xx.xx,1786;Network Library=DBMSSOCN;Initial Catalog=xxx;User ID=xxx;Password=xxx;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient"/> I have checked the connection string passsword etc, and all are correct. I have tried SQL Server Management Studio, aspnet_regsql.exe etc and all give the following error: 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: TCP Provider, error: 0 - No such host is known.)or System.Web.HttpException: Unable to connect to SQL Server database. ---> System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException: 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: TCP Provider, error: 0 - A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.) I have used the surface config to enable TCP/IP and named pipes. Any Ideas? Thanks

Transaction Not Saved Into Database When Access Remotely
I have a problem when trying to save a transaction remotely. I'm using my pc as the server and I can save without any problem from local (the same project). But when I try accessing the project from other pc, the transaction doesn't get saved into the db. No error displayed. It's just doesn't get saved. What is the problem? Is there any IIS setting that I should put in?

Unable To Access Perfmon Counters Remotely
I have a situation where accessing perfmon counters remotely does notdisplay the same list of Performance Objects remotely as it does when doingit from the host of SQL Server.From the host of SQL Server if I run perfmon.exe I will see performanceobjects for all instances of SQL Server running. I.E. all entries fordefault instance "SQLServer:....", all entries for non default instance like"MSSQL$.....".But If I run perfmon from a remote machine I see the counters for defaultinstance "SQLServer:..." and some of the non default instance but not all.If I reboot that SQL Server host, all will then be seen either locally inthe host or remotely.What is the reason for that?Thanks,MarcM

Access Denied When Connecting Remotely Via SSMS
Hello, Only the server administrator user can connect to SSIS from remote workstations. All other users encounter "Access denied". What security settings are necessary to permit regular user access to SSIS? Firewalling is not an issue. SSIS is running and works fully for the server administrator user. All users can manage the Database with SSMS just fine; only SSIS cannot be accessed by regular users. Server Configuration Notes: Windows Server 2003 SQL Server 2005 Standard Workstation Configuraiton Notes: Windows XP Professional SSMS (installed from the SS2005 media) Thank you.

Cannot Remotely Login To SQL Express Since Last Windows Update
Since today (after installing the latest Windows Updates !on my local machine!) I cannot login to a SQLExpress instance remotely; stating that it cannot find the server/instance. The weird thing is: it only happens when I want to login to the non-default instance (sqlexpress 2005) (<IP><instance>). When i'm using the default instance (msde 2000 or sqlexpress 2005 on another machine) (<IP>) it seems to work fine. Does this have something to do with the windows updates, or is it just a coincedence? Thanks in advance, Remco Ros

Error Remotely Connecting To SQL Server Express
I've been trying to configure remote connections to my sql server express to no avail. First here are some constants to clear some things up: - OS: Windows XP Pro - SQL Express version: April CTP release - Windows Firewall: disabled (to avoid any problems there) - Network type: two computers connected a router. - Router firewall: Enabled (I may be wrong but the router firewall only blocks external traffic, so I left it on.) First, I configured my SQL server to allow remote connections in the SQL Surface Area Configuration. (Set it to both TCP/IP and named pipes) Second, I enabled and configured sql server browser. Third, I enabled TCP/IP and named pipes in the 'Protocols for SQL Express' option of the SQL Server Configuration Manager. According to http://blogs.msdn.com/sqlexpress/archive/2005/05/05/415084.aspx I have done everything I need to (including edit the registry to enable the SQL Server Browser service) and the error I continue to get is: "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: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: -1)" So I tinkered and had no success in messing with anything that would fix it. Although, ***when I browsed for network servers on different machine, the server instance DID show up in the list***. So I find it odd that it can find the instance when browsing, but fails to 'find' it when making a connection. So I didn't stop there, I decided to try the non-sql server browser method of remotely connecting: specifying the IP. I went back to the blog of instructions referenced above and re-did the steps, this time specifying a TCP Port for the server instance and then after specifying the port on the remote computer connection string, and attempting to connect, I get this error: "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: TCP Provider, error: 0 - A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because connected host has failed to respond.) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 10060)" I've done all I know how, read all the possible blogs I can, and nothing's come up. If anyone can shed some light on me, I'd pay you 1 billion pretend dollars. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!

Documentation To Install Sql 2005 Express Remotely
Hi all, I'm just wondering if there is documentation anywhere to help me with installation of SQL 2005 Express on a remote computer. I've set up IIS 6.0 and Windows Server 2003 Web Edition on another computer and am planning to use that for a development server. Currently I've already installed VWD Express (local computer) and SQL 2005 Express, as well as SQL Query Manager (remote computer). But I seem to be having problems with VWD being able to create databases when i edit the code remotely. For example when I right-click on "Data Connections" in the "Database Explorer" to create a new database it won't let me. The only way I can do this is to add a connection to a database which I have previously created. And even then there are still problems. If I set up the database by adding a connection I cannot seem to create stored procedures. The error message I keep getting is "This feature is not supported in Visual Developer". Is this due to wrong settings whilst installing SQL Express? Or am I just not configuring it right? Any help on this issue would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

Want To Access SQL Database To Run Loop To Check Robots.txt Remotely
One of my tables in the db contains the websites and the location of their link directory. i.e. domain.com/linkdirectory I want to run a check against every website's robots.txt file to ensure that it doesn't look like this: user-agent: * Disallow: /linkdirectory/ so I need a program that does the following: For each website in database (start of loop) Does robots.txt exist on their site ?(run a remote check) if it does is their link directory blocked in robots.txt? if so, then log their user id and website name into an array for later use end if endif end loop How would I do this in ASP.net 2.0?

Cannot Remotely Access SQL Server Standard Named Instance
Good Day, I am creating a SQL Named instance as a testing environment. This instance is on the same physical box as my Development environment, both are SQL 2005 standard edition. From the server in Management Studio, I can load, and interact with both instances. From a remote connection (e.g., my pc) I cannot access the named instance. I am getting the following: Connect to Server X Cannot connect to <server><named instance> Additional Information An error has occured while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Sever 2006, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)(Microsoft SQL Server) I have checked, and rechecked the server settings for this named instance, and remote connections are set to "allow" I have enabled TCPIP and Named Pipes prototocals, and have ensured that my firewall is allowing the "listenting port" for the named instance, and have even tried turning off my XP firewall during testing. I am sure that I have probably missed something, and have searched the community but only have been able to find resolutions that I have already tried. Is there more? Thanks in advance for any help and guidance you can provide.

Remotely Register SQL Server 2005 Express In Enterprise Manager
I have SQL Server 2005 Express installed on a windows server 2003 standard edition. I have configured the windows firewall to allow exceptions for sqlservr.exe and sqlbrowser.exe. I have enabled remote and local connections using tcp/ip & Named Pipes through the Sql Server Surface Area Connection utility. I am able to telnet into the server with: telnet <server ip> <1433>. Here is the strange part: I am able to connect to the Sql Server remotely from a development machine via Sql Server Management Studio Express, but I am unable to connect to the Sql Server from the same development machine by registering it in Sql Server Enterprise Manager...Is it possible to register SQL Express through Enterprise Manager? When registering the SQL Express DB in Enterprise Manager I tried both just the (IP Address) of the server and the (IP AddressSQLExpress) as the server/host but I am getting the following errors from enterprise manager: Just the (IP Address) as the server/host: Invalid Connection. ConnectionOpen( Invalid Instance()) (IP AddressSQLEXPRESS) as the server/host: Sql Server does not exist or access denied. ConnectOpen(Connect()). Any idea why I can€™t register/mount the instance remotely in Enterprise Manager but I can in Sql Server Management Studio Express? Thanks, Greg

Access Denied To ReportServer And Reports, Works Locally But Fails Remotely
I am getting the error: HTTP Error 401.1 - Unauthorized: Access is denied due to invalid credentials. Internet Information Services (IIS) when I attempt to connect to Reports or ReportServer from my desktop, but it works normally when I login with the same userid and run it directly on the server, using IE. It is prompting me for a login 2 or 3 times before failing. My configuration is: Report Server system: Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2 - 32bit SQL Server 2005 Reporting Services Enterprise Edition Windows & Web Service run as a domain account Database connection is using domain account - not in db_owner, but in RSExec roles Database is on another server, and is Native, not SharePoint integrated Reports & ReportServer are in a separate application pool Reporting Services had SP2 installed before it was configured The Rport Server is a VM Database server Windows Server 2003 R2 SP2 - x64 SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition 64bit Version 9.00.3200.00 The Report Manager was not working at all, and I discovered that there was no entry in the .Net Framework version on the APS.Net tab in properties for the Reports virtual directory. I am not seeing any errors or anything unusual in the Event log or in the ReportServer log files. FrontPage 2002 extensions were installed, and then removed. I noticed that this installed a SharePoint virtual directory, and that disappeared when I removed FrontPage extensions. The domain group my userid is in is in the local Administrators group on the ReportServer system, and I have added this group as a System Administrator and Content Manager through the report Manager. I would greatly appreciate any suggestions. Thanks, Bill

How Can One Connect (remotely) To SQLExpress Which Is Installed On &&"Windows XP Home&&"
Hi all, I have to deal with a private network of laptops which are all equiped with preinstalled "Windows XP home" I've installed SQLExpress on one of these, but I cannot connect on it from the rest of the laptops. (I've successfuly done this with "Windows XP profesional" though, and local connections work fine as well). I've already setup the SQLExpress to accept conections throuigh TCP/IP but I can not think of something else. (Security comes to mind, but I do not know how to resolve it on "Windows XP Home"). Thank you Ioannis

Cannot Connect W/ Java App But Can Connect W/ .Net App - SQL Server Express 2005
I'm having a problem connecting with a Java application but I CAN connect using my .Net application - the user name and password are the same for both (using the same database on SQL Server Express 2005). The error I get is: "com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerException: Cannot open database "CORNERS" requested by the login. The login failed." An interesing note - I get the same message if the database is not running. SQL Server Express 2005 is installed in mixed mode. Here is my connection string in the .Net appplication: <add key="connectString" value="Server=(local);UID=sa;PWD=myPasswd;Database=CORNERS" />. These are my values in my Java app web.xml - <init-param> <param-name>DBDriver</param-name> <param-value>com.microsoft.sqlserver.jdbc.SQLServerDriver</param-value> </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>DBURL</param-name> <param-value>jdbc:sqlserver://localhostsqlexpress:1055;databaseName=CORNERS</param-value> </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>DBUser</param-name> <param-value>sa</param-value> </init-param> <init-param> <param-name>DBPwd</param-name> <param-value>myPasswd</param-value> </init-param>. And yes, the port is 1055 - I checked to find it. I am using Microsoft SQL Server 2005 JDBC Driver 1.0 (sqljdbc_1.0.809.102). Does anyone have any idea what is wrong so that the login fails in the Java application but works in the .Net application?
