'Keyword Not Supported: 'provider' Error When Connecting To SQL Server Database
Jan 22, 2008
I've run into a bit of a database connection problem. I'm trying to connect to a SQL Server database. It compiles okay, but then while IE is loading, I get an exception error pointing out in the code saying 'Keyword not supported: 'provider'.
I have a script component that accesses the database with this codes:
Public Overrides Sub Input0_ProcessInputRow(ByVal Row As Input0Buffer) Dim cn As SqlConnection Dim SQLCmd As SqlCommand Dim dr As SqlDataReader Dim NextKey As Integer = 0
cn = New SqlConnection(Connections.CONNofficetestdb.ConnectionString.ToString)
cn.Open()
SQLCmd = New SqlCommand("select count(*) from accounttrans", cn)
Facts:1. I am using my account on Godaddy trying to connect to my sql server db.2. I can get into my db using user id and password.3. Godaddy's help file shows this for a connection string: connectstr = "Driver={SQL Server};SERVER=" & db_server & ";DATABASE=" &db_name & ";UID=" & db_username & ";PWD=" & db_userpassword4. My connection string: "Server=whsql-v09.prod.mesa1.secureserver.net;uid=dbasolutions;pwd=***;database=DB_87972;" & _ "Trusted_Connection=False providerName=System.Data.SqlClient"{password **** out}5. Get error message 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) I tried to email Godaddy's help desk with this information. There first response: We do not allow remote connections to our sql server database.There second response was to read the help file!Does anybody have any suggestions? Thanks in advance,bswanson

Hello there. I'm developing an eCommerce solutions based on the ASP.NET 2.0 Commerce Starter Kit, architechture. It uses the Provider Pattern. In my web-application, i use the CatalogProvider, to retrieve data from a SQL Server 2005 database. I call the methods through a handler class, whoch excists inside the WebApp. I also use a ShoppingCartProvider, OrdersProvider, ShippingProvider etc. in the same way. In my Web.Config file, i have all the provers listed, and on each provider, the name of the connectionString to use are given. My connection string looks like this:"connString" connectionString="Server=xxxx;Database=xxxx;Trusted_Connection=True;" providerName="System.Data.SqlClient" /> The problem is, that suddently, when browsing the website, that connects to the database through the providers, i get this error: Keyword not supported: ',server'. Description: An unhandled exception occurred during the execution of the current web request. Please review the stack trace for more information about the error and where it originated in the code. Exception Details: System.ArgumentException: Keyword not supported: ',server'.Source Error:
Line 31: public static IDataReader GetProductsByCategory(int categoryID) Line 32: { Line 33: return Commerce.Providers.CatalogProvider.Instance.GetProductsByCategory(categoryID); Line 34: } Line 35: Source File: d:DevelopmentASPNETSeoShopApp_CodeHandlersCatalogManager.cs Line: 33 Stack Trace: If i then go back to my web.config file, and removes the providerName section, of the connectionString, the website works again, for a short period. When the error return, i undo the deletion of the providerName, and it will work again... For a short time... I've also tried to use another connectionsString, like this:Data Source=Aron1;Initial Catalog=pubs;Integrated Security=SSPI But then the keyword which is not supported is: ', data source'
Does anyone know what the issue might be? Thanks in advance...
I get the following error and have been trying to figure out why I keep getting it. Initially, I had placed my project under wwwroot folder and ran it under IIS and it gave this error. Then I moved it to my local C drive and same thing. I am sharing this project with two other co-workers and all our config files and code files are same...they don't get this error but I do. I checked that SQL Server Client Network Utility has TCP/IP and the 'Named Pipes' enabled. I thought maybe I have setting in the Visual Studio 2005 that I'm not aware of that's causing this problem...it can't be the server since my co-workers aren't having this error and can't be anything in the code since all of us are sharing this project through vss. I dont' think using different version of .net framework can create this error. I changed the version from 2.0 to use 1.1x and it gave same error... Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Are there generalized best practices with regards to which method/provider to use when accessing an Oracle database? I have used both the "Native OLE DBMicrosoft OLE DB Provider for Oracle" and the "Native OLE DBOracle Provider for OLE DB" and both seem to have their own quirks (requirement to convert to Unicode, etc) but I also have heard that I shouldn't be using an "OLE DB" source at all, but to set it up as an ADO .Net connection.
We are just beginning to implement SSIS, and are trying to establish Best Practices/Standards etc.
Are there any gotchas - performance and/or otherwise I should know about?
Basically the error that I am getting is in our test automation when running as non-admin on the box (regular user). We use .Net C# SQLConnection class to connect to SQL express 2005 impersonating with admin credentials. After getting the connection we try to execute a select command and it some time fails with following error: A transport-level error has occurred when receiving results from the server. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - The handle is invalid.) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlInternalConnection.OnError(SqlException exception, Boolean breakConnection) at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.ThrowExceptionAndWarning(TdsParserStateObject stateObj) at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParserStateObject.ReadSniError(TdsParserStateObject stateObj, UInt32 error) at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParserStateObject.ReadSni(DbAsyncResult asyncResult, TdsParserStateObject stateObj) at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParserStateObject.ReadPacket(Int32 bytesExpected) at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParserStateObject.ReadBuffer() at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParserStateObject.ReadByte() at System.Data.SqlClient.TdsParser.Run(RunBehavior runBehavior, SqlCommand cmdHandler, SqlDataReader dataStream, BulkCopySimpleResultSet bulkCopyHandler, TdsParserStateObject stateObj) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader.ConsumeMetaData() at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlDataReader.get_MetaData() at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.FinishExecuteReader(SqlDataReader ds, RunBehavior runBehavior, String resetOptionsString) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.RunExecuteReaderTds(CommandBehavior cmdBehavior, RunBehavior runBehavior, Boolean returnStream, Boolean async) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.RunExecuteReader(CommandBehavior cmdBehavior, RunBehavior runBehavior, Boolean returnStream, String method, DbAsyncResult result) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.RunExecuteReader(CommandBehavior cmdBehavior, RunBehavior runBehavior, Boolean returnStream, String method) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.ExecuteReader(CommandBehavior behavior, String method) at System.Data.SqlClient.SqlCommand.ExecuteReader()
This happen only in the non-admin scenario mentioned above. Any idea what is triggering this?
I have seen several posts on the subject, and have tried various configs. At this point, I am simply trying to connect to SQL Express, that's all.
I have an app. in MS Access that uses SQL Express as a back-end database (this is the simple desktop version of our software). I don't remember having so many issues with just connecting to a small db engine on a single computer..! Just to get it off my chest, there was a post about this subject where someone listed more than 15 items to check... If anyone at Microsoft is reading... connections should not require a 15-item check-list.. People running sql express are not creating a sophisticated database system, probably running it because, they want a free, easy solution, and do not have an IT person, nor are they intersted in reading any 1 of the 15 items... Just trying to connect to the instance of the database that runs on the same computer.... that should not require more than possibly 3 different settings.
My objective at this point, is simply to connect! Nothing else.
My environment settings are:
OS: Win XP Professional MS Access(2003) and SQL Express both installed on the same computer All connection attempts are on the same computer SQL Express is installed in mixed mode SQL Browser running, Network DDE running (if needed) All Network protocols are enabled (tried disabling and enabling each 1 at a time as well) All Client protocols are enabled I tried setting network library to "dbmssocn", and left blank for default (uses namedpipes) I tried using host name, localhost, and IP address for servername (with the SQLEXPRESS of course) Also tried leaving it blank I tried with Integrated security, also tried with the user "sa" and "test" user (both enabled and capable of logging in and accessing the database) I tested the connection from SQL Express Manager, successfully connected in all modes (secure, and with SQL users) to make sure there are no issues with the users or security. Tried turning the SQL browser off (this should not be needed in local mode) Tried using an alias Tried using attach database as a filename And, the firewall is turned off.
Always getting the error "....connection failed because of an error in initializing provider" (whether using namedpipes, or TCP, or shared mem)
Both SQL Express and Access are installed on the computer, that should include the providers...
Please let me know if there is anything left for checking and/or trying... Appreciate your help...
I need to refresh my cube daily and once this processed is done, i will update in ETL table with lastcubeprocessedtime in my timestamp column. Actually i am using IBM db2 provider since my ETL table resides in IBM DB2 source.
In my first task i am using script task where i will check whether my timestamp column value is NULL or not.
I am getting error like "The script threw an exception : keyword not supported: 'network port'." when this script task executes.
Moreover i am getting another error like "The execution succeeded, but the number of error raised(1) reached the maximum allowed(1); resulting in failure. This occurs when the number of errors reaches the number of specified in MaximumErrorCount. Change the MaximumErrorCount or fix this errors." For this error i have changed MaximumErrorCount value from 1 to 100 in dataflow task.
Can anyone tell me what might be the problem for these two errors?

It tries connecting to SQL Server 2005. There is no SQL Server 2005 in that system. There is only SQL Server 2000.
I have the aspx code in my local system and the database in another machine.
Could Someone please help me out in solving this problem.
I realised this has been done to death, and so much information out there but I am still in a quandry.
I have had to rebuild my computer.
This is what I did
XP machine using SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition using Windows Authentication NZ6(MSSQLSERVER)
straight default install all the way
unfortunately when ready to run reports from my instance(computer) I received the error as in provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server
thought I had it all okayed but obviously something not right
so ended up unistalling then - did the following:
Load SQL Server from disc1 and start install failed on alter Counter Registry key error fixed this from KB article (known error that can happen) restarted Went to Windows Update check IIS is installed - tick is on - IIS - admin tools - make sure asp2 is associated - yes ok Then back to install sql server - there is no instance set up yet Disk 2 and setup .exe
All ok on Reporting Services, Analysis etc.
But once again all seems fine but still getting the error:
connection is all fine in Management Studio - eg I can see tables etc connection is all fine in Business Intelligence - eg I can preview my reports I then can deploy up to - NZ6 open NZ6 eports report is there fine - but just errors
some simple little tick that I have not done!!
I seem to have checked and rechecked everything and obviously doing another re-install does not seem a logical step from here. I will continue to check but if someone jump in and advise please would be great.
I am creating a web site using Visual Studio 2008 & trying to connect to database on SQL Server 2000. My test connection is successful but while debugging the page I am getting this error : " provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server "
Solutions recommended for this were start running the SQL browser instance and enable Namespipes in Sqlserver configuration manager.Did both.. but nothing worked.
