Hi,
My program is running on UNIX, (SUN, AIX and HP), and work with Oracle.
I would like to use SQL-Server instead of Oracle, but the program must run on UNIX.
Is there is a way/driver to work with SQL-Server from UNIX?
*new in SQL-Server area...
Thanks
I have UNIX application, running on AIX, SUN and HP, (RISC & Itanium).
This application working with Oracle, via OCI, and OCCI, (I can use ODBC as well).
I would like replace Oracle with SQL-Sever.
Does there is a way/driver to access MS-SQL Server from Unix?

View 1 Replies View RelatedHi I am trying to schedule a job to copy an MDB data file from Unix server to Windows 2003 server (Accfp1_data2_server). I have created a file copy SSIS package and tested it in the SSIS Visual Studio environment where it runs ok. The package was created while logged in as a domain administrator.
I then created a job to run this package (which is stored on a folder) using the credential of the same domain administrator who has full access privilege to both of these servers. However, the job fails whenever it is run manually or scheduled? The error message displayed is given below

Can anyone help?
First, let me start by saying I know the answer to this, but due to politics any answer I give will be viewed with some disdain and disbelief.
A Unix/Network [rtdpmin one our sister agencies is trying to solve a problem that really does not need to be solved, but ....
The sister agency uses Information Builder's WebFocus on Unix. When they try to read my data warehouse in SQL Server 2000 it times out on them (on their end and they claim they cannot fix it) (This is using the supplied WebFocus ODBC/JDBC driver for SQL Server). This has lead to accusations of us not letting them read the data.
After much gnashing of teeth over "if you do data and data analysis for a living, why do I have to show you how to set-up an ODBC connection" we have shown them how to connect to the data, read it, and transfer it using MS-ACCESS, EXCEL, and more importantly SPSS. This is not good enough because they cannot figure out how to put it into WebFocus.
Their network person has come-up with the brilliant idea of reading the .mdf directly by installing Windows for Unix on the Unix side and then just pointing to the .mdf file and "reading it ".
Unless I have missed something somwhere (I will admit possible), I know you need a driver to read MS-SQL and that driver in every example I have seen could care less about the physical location of the .mdf file. It wants to know what database, what server (ip or name) and what security/login to use.
Could someone give me a more "technical answer" or even Microsoft's party line so I do not have this person mucking around with my production server trying to acomplish the impossible.
I am very new to this board and I am not sure whether the following question belongs to this board. I will ask it anyway.
Can someone tell me where (book or web site or an example) I can go to learn how to be able to connect to a SQL Server database in a unix (in my case Solaris) environment using C/C++. I have been doing database programming using Oracle, Acess on NT with C/C++/ODBC comfortabley. I just need to learn how to go about in a Unix environment.

We are running SCO Unix 5.0.5. We need a command line sql client that can connect to a MS SQL server running on a windows server. Can someone point me in the right direction? I don't want to write a sql client. I just want a command line sql client binary that is ready to work.
I want to do something like this in a unix shell script:
# sql -s 10.1.2.3 -u username -p password -f sqlcommandsinafile.txt -o sqlresults.txt

Is it possibel to run a DTS job to read a file from unix server?
View 4 Replies View RelatedI've got a question about the UNIX timestamp solutions, I am using this one:
select convert(datetime, switchoffset(convert(datetimeoffset, dateadd(second, start_date, '19700101')), datename(TzOffset, sysdatetimeoffset())))
from x
This works great for today (wintertime), but when I query the past, say last week, it will still hold the current offset of my server GMT+1, where it was GMT+2.
Is there a way to get always the right date/time from a sql-query?

Hello,
How can I assign the ODBC Database(Progress) on UNIX as publisher and SQL Server as subscriber. When I use the Enterprise Manager, I cannot see the Unix Server. I just can see the server and database in DTS.
Would you please explain the steps?

I know that SQL Server runs on Windows Server, is it possible to download data in UNIX using shell script? does SQL Server has any binary or command line client for any operating system other than Windows?

View 3 Replies View RelatedHi,
We are trying to move our application from SQL2005 to SQL2005, we are using 2005 jdbc driver 1.1.
The problem we have is, when a date is retrieved from the database, only the year part got correctly, but the date is automatically set to January 1 of that year. The interesting thing is this problem doesn't occur on local development environment (developer's windows platform), it only happens when we deploy the application to production server (unix).
Does anyone know what is going on, how to fix it?
Thanks.

I have created a linked server from SQL Server 2005 (SP 1) to SQL Service 2000 (SP 4) with a sql server login that is available on both servers but with different passwords and permissions.
I am getting the following error while accessing the linked server in management studio based on the scenario given below ;
------ Error Message Starts
OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "(SQL Server 2000 instance name)" returned message "Communication link failure".
Msg 10054, Level 16, State 1, Line 0
TCP Provider: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host.
Msg 18456, Level 14, State 1, Line 0
Login failed for user 'abc'.
------ Error Message Ends
Consider login name is abc.
Now this login abc has sysadmin rights on sql server 2005.
The same login abc has only db_datareader rights on sql server 2000 on just one database and is not associated with any fixed server role.
I have configured the linked server using the following options;
1. I have tried impersonating login from SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server 2000 .
2. I have also tried specifying remote login / password option.
Anyone having any idea, would be of great help.

If my site is hosted with an external company web host can I use ASP.NET pages to connect to a MS SQL DB that is on my company's internal server if I had MS SQL installed on it?
My company's server is always on and always connected to the internet.
I have access to my company's server if I need to set anything up on it for this to happen.
There will not be any kind of overload as the site is not accessed constantly.
Also, would this cause any kind of security leak? If so how would I go about plugging this hole?
Our server does have confidential info on it.
Cheers

I'm using OLEDB in my ASP code to connect to the SQL database. When I execute the page I got an error saying "438, Microsoft VBScript runtime error, Object doesn't support this property or method"
Anybody knows what this is in reference to.
I tested the same site in another server where IIS and SQL are in the same box and it's working fine.
Thanks for any input in this......

What is the easiest way to start executing SQL statements onto a SQL Server 2000 using C++ ?????
Are there any libraries or something I could use ?
Greetings. I am curently having problems with authorizations while attempting to connect to SQL Server with an Asp.NET web application. I will try to explain my problem as clearly as possible.
I am developing an Asp.NET web application with Visual Studio to connect and view a database on a remote SQL Server. In my Web.config file, I have added the line
<identity impersonate = "true"/>
In my IIS security options, I have disabled the annonymous authentication and enabled the Windows mode authentication instead. When accessing the database from my computer, by compiling and debugging my web application in Visual Studio, everything works wonder. When I try to use the web application from a remote computer using the IP address or from my own computer using localhost in the URL, it asks me for my Windows username and password, which I provide, and then refuses any further access, saying I don't have permission to even connect to the server.
How can I go around this and allow my users to connect to the server from a remote computer? My machine is running Windows XP SP2 and the server is running Windows Server 2003.
Thank you in advance for any help you may provide,
Marie
