I have a web application that runs on IIS on Windows XP professional. I have reached the max number of connections to the IIS website. So, I tried the approach of disabling HTTP Keep-Alives.
All is fine and dandy until my Business Intelligence Studio report project attempts to set the parameters for a report using report viewer at which point I get the following error message:
"The request failed with http status 401: access denied."
How can I fix this? I have posted this over at the asp.net forums, but I figured I would check here to see if anyone else has solved this problem.
Re: Possible Vista-only security issue opening a TCP connection to SQL2005
Please help. I have a problem that appears to be rare. I'm testing the culmination of a year's work and the error I'm getting is at the most basic level (the SQL connection) while everything else so far is working as coded.
My client is Windows Vista, apparently no firewall (I say apparently as in recent years MS have put more and more facades over the actuality of the operating systems), my server is Windows 2003 Server b3790 SP2 with SQL 2005 Standard 1399.06, again no firewall.
PortQuery 2.0 reckons that the server is listening on port 1433, too, so it doesn't seem like a firewall issue.
Nothing reported in either Event Viewers.
Here's the stack dump:
Unhandled Exception: 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.

And here's the connection string, which is built using the SqlConnectionStringBuilder:
I have tried an old project which used to connect to the same server using a more basic connection string (it was a project which populated my Research db with fake data) and it also fails. When I ran this project successfully I'm pretty sure it was on an XP client.
I have also ran my TestHarness .exe on another client (WinXP) and it appears to pass this point and raises an exception that I believe is caused at a later point - so it looks like a Vista client issue.
Thanks in advance for your help,
Luke
P.S. Some losely related thoughts; the MSDN forum system still logs me out on Vista when I try to submit a thread, please sort this out! You can't expect your customers to run around deleting cookies. Also, when will you finally deprecate the default Named Pipes!? And finally, having that "does not allow remote connections" error spewed out with all connection errors is a really bad design choice, in my opinion.
I have trying to execute the Sendmail task in my development envinorment i face this error..I have given the clear details error message below,Please have a look.
[Send Mail Task] Error: An error occurred with the following error message: "Failure sending mail.  System.Net.WebException: Unable to connect to the remote server  System.Net.Sockets.SocketException: An attempt was made to access a socket in a way forbidden by its access permissions ".Alternatively  i use the  SMTP connection to create the subscription as well,its working properly.
Here we are accessing SMTP connection manager as Virtually.Here in my client network we are using Macafee Anti virus ,We have excluded the Rsconfigration file in the excluded list.I dont know why this problem occures again using Sendmailtask in ssis?
Beginning this morning, when I look in Current Activity in our SQL 6.5 Server, all trusted user connections to my server are showing up under "SA". We are running mixed security. Most of the connections are through ODBC. We have applied SP5a to SQL. As far as I know, nothing in SQL has changed. From what others are telling me, nothing in NT or the network has changed.
Something is up. What am I missing? Where can I look?
We have a existing backup, re-index job that runs at night on anexisting database that is now accessed by web users 24/7.Problem is that one of the steps is to kill all users before backupstarts so it kills any transactions that are happening at that timequestion is... Can users be connected during a backup? Will removingthe kill users step slow the backup alot?any other suggestions would be appreciated.thanks
sorry about asking basic question, just slipped out of my mind, how to get the list of currently connected users on one database and on whole server in sql server 2005
I have uploaded my site on localhost and sharing on intranethow can i answer these question? Q1) How many users have loggedin? and using my database?Q2) Which table has lots of load?Q3) how can i immediately close particularly connection?
I need to maintain a record such as how many time any user (e.g, sa) connects to the sql server. Means whenever any person is connecting to the database through application or directly, then i need to know that through which sql user(e.g sa), any body connected.
I need to be able to list all User connected to a particular database, after doing a bit of playing I have writen a simple view in the database to show this information which looks like
select spid, status, loginame, hostname, blocked, db_name(dbid), cmd from master..sysprocesses where db_name(dbid) = 'AutoCost2008
But my problem is that as this needs to be run from an application where the user is logged on as a standard user and therefore when this is run it only shows the current user, I am not sure what permissions I need to give this login to allow them to view all users connected to this database without giving them full Admin permissions, can anyone please help.
Hi,I am gradually tearing my hair out and other bits of my anatomy tryongto get web access to my reportserver.Currently I can access the rportmanager via a web interface andconfigure user access etc etc, at which point the fun begins.When I try to browse to the URLhttp://domain/reportserver?/reachUmobile/Users I get a 403 error,so.....I check the permissions on the directory and the web directories andadd what I think are the user accounts needed to access these resourcesbut unfortunately I am at a position where I have added EVERY useraccount with FULL control to both the directories AND the reportmanager via the web browser.I cant possibly add any more user/permissions and I have been trying tofind the problem for a day now and getting rather "angry"..Anyway, apologies if there is not enough info here but if any of youguys know of any good resources that are available (I have triedbooks/web etc) then I would be grateful for any pointers to debugging,logs etc (I have checked the usual logs and nothing!)Short of uninstalling the report server I have tried everything, and Idont really want to go that route as the previous developer didn;tleave me the report project (.NET). bugger....Anyway really appreciate some help on this..Many thanksRichardplace in the url create and update the settings for all my datasourcesvia the reportmanager.2.
I am using http to access my cube (MS Analysis Server) and there are userswho are getting "Query could not be processed. Access is forbidden"intermittently. Can someone help out and let me know what is causing thisissue? Some users are not getting this error.
Is it possible/advisable to change this setting with users connected? Â There are a number of web based users and an agent job running every 30 seconds.Â

I have used the Access 2003 Upsize Wizard to create SQLServer Tables, all worked fine except I cannot Update the tables from Access.
The idea being to use Access Forms as the front end to an SQLserver back end as the Access database is quite complex and filled with macros and queries, not one of mine.
I can update the table in SQLServer but the connected tables at the Access end are read only. Why?
I have set up a link from ACCESS to a SQL 7.0 database using ODBC (File DSN saved on a shared DRIVE). The link works well only from the workstation where the link was created. But How can I create a link so a group of users can view the linked table in ACCESS without type a password? Any suggestion is appreciated.
Hi, I'm writing a program to access a SQL server and my problem is that if I use a user that isn't an administrator the login is failed.
It specifies the " DomainUserName "
Maybe it wouldn't have bothered me so if I didn't see it working on the last server I had. Unfortunatly, that one was formatted and I wasn't the one installing the SQL server on it.
Does anybody know how to make the SQL server more tolrant to users?
I have had Reporting Services installed on my servers since SQL05 came out everything has worked fine. Recently we have had to implement €œRequire Client Certificates€? in IIS. This breaks Reporting services. When I try to access with https://fullyQulifiedServerName/reports/pages/folder.aspx. I get a 403: Forbidden Error. Note that if I change the setting in IIS for the ReportServer node only from €œRequire Client Certificates€? to €œAccept Client Certificates€?. RS works again. The requirement is to "Require Client Certificates". Does any one have a fix for this.
The Server has winsvr2003 RS is configure like this
Report Manager Virtual Directory Name Reports Website = Default
Report Server Virtual Directory Name = ReportServer Website = Default Require SSL Connections = Checked For all Soap API€™s (level 3) Certificate Name = FullyQulifiedServerName
Hiya - this might be a bit of a simple question but please bear with me! I have looked reasonably hard for this but can not find an answer:
I have an MSSQL 2000 server running on PC-A and would like to limit certain users (e.g. admin) to be only able to logon when using the actual PC-A machine.
I am aware that you can acheive this in MySQL with the "insert into user (host, user, password) values (localhost, username, password);" command. Is there an equivalent way to do this in MSSQL?
Ok I created a database SQL is the engine and Access XP is the gui. When the users try to access the databae they get error message, it opens up but they cant open the forms for some reason. I was wondering if this had to do with me have Access XP and them having Access 2000, but I highly doubt it because when I had a user log on to my machine (which has access xp) they still were not able to access the forms. Can someone help me out PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE... this is so frustrating :(
One thing I'm noticing is that the users connection keeps dropping???
I'm trying to set up SQL Server so that people with Enterprise Mgr can create a DB registration to their DB only (sql.yoursite.com). Are there any tutorials out there for doing this?
I have SQL Server 7 database & I need to create some interface between users & database to let users see what is in the database, but not let them change or destroy data. Do I need to create some other database in-between users & the original database? Users can't program & want access to all data.management doesn't want to create a replication of the database. They want to let users have access through MS Word or Access. What could you advise me?
is there a master table that i could querry to buiild a report on the users who have acces to the various databases on the SQL server. I am trying to use master.dbo.syslogins but that is not generating what i need.
Ive finally gotten my report server setup to run. I can access the reports via IIS from a remote computer if I login as the server administrator. Ive given certain users permissions to the /Program Files/sql server/Reporting Services/ folder, however, when I try to enter their login info, from the IIS login prompt when i visit http://servername/ReportServer/ I am unable to login. How do I grant users permission to login to report server?
I have a Data Flow Task with an OLE DB Source containing this query:
SELECT Batch_Idx, Package, FailureSource FROM Audit.ProcessPackage WHERE (Status = 2) AND (Batch_Idx > ?) and FailureSource IS NOT NULL
At this point, before sending the data to the Recordset Destination, I would like to do a Row Count, and do something different depending on if there are any rows or not. When I try to put in the Row Count after the OLE DB Source, I get this error:
"The component has forbidden the requested use of the input column with lineage id xxx"
My variable for the RowCount results is RowCount and it is declared at package level. I have tried to use all each of the columns as input columns, and I get the error for every one. Do you know how I can fix this error? Thank you!
Hi guys, We have a scenario where there are about 50 tables in our database and we want to build an intranet web application for users to with the office to access those tables. Users ability to access tables falls into diferent category:
Some users can NOT view some tables at all Some users can ONLY view some tables but not insert/update any field Some users can view and also insert/update some tables (in the same time they might not have view(select) permision on some other tables) Now, what is the right way to implement this. I say we have to have a Role, RolePermission, User, UserPermission inside our database to implement this (something which would look like the Roles and Users inside MSSQL) and we only have one user for our Database (MachineName/ASPUSER) to access the database and all the tables within My colleague says NO, instead of creating all these tables and implement this, we add every user of our application as a Database user inside MSSQL in the Databse Users. All the web application I have seen so far, DNN, CommunityServer, ... the have tables to implement all these and they don't add users inside the MSSQL. Now which way is the way to go with, and what problem might we fall into if we use SQL users, is this possible at all. How can I convince him that we have to make and use our own tables to manage this. Thanks for any help,Mehdi
I have now succefully setup SQL Server Express on an Admin PC in my office and can see it and connect to it easily from my PC using my NT logon.
My application is complete and runs a treat for me connecting to the server from my PC.
I have now deployed the application using ClickOnce and it has all gone smoothly, except for other NT users gaining access to the database?
Within MSMSE I have clicked on Security-Logins and can see my NT login details are present and as me I can administrate the server/db.
I have added a few new logins and even tried to match them to my settings but from their computers the application fails to logon to the server/database.
Within the ODBC setup the server is visible for them but they cannot connect?
If I logon to their computer it works for me?
This section is new to me so I am struggling to get it to work, can anyone throw me a bone please?
We are currently using Crystal reports but are considering using SQL RS. We need to know if there is a restriction on simultanoeus access to the same report by multiple users? What happens when multiple users try to access the same report simultaneously? If reports can be accessed simultaneously, do the requests queue up or are they processed concurrently?
Hello team, I have learned quite a bit from everyone here. I have decided to post a question for you guys and see what the best method is. Our Sr. DBA has asked me to get a list of all of our users permissions on all of our databases. We have about 20 SQL servers some of which have more databases and instances than I have fingers and toes. Can anyone recommend any solution to this problem? Perhaps there is a script I can download/write which will help me on this? Thanks in advance.
