Hi everyone I was wondering whether it was possible to connect to another server within SQL?
The scenario:
- There are 2 servers that need to communicate to each other as Data needs to be in sync with each other.
- Server 1 receives a command.
- I need an SQL Statement to connect to server 2. Is this possible using variables @Connection?
I have a TRIGGER that detects any changes in my Table... if anything is INSERTED or UPDATED a TRIGGER is called to deal with that and sync my necessary tables. I need to connect to Server 2 and basically do the same operations if possible?
I would be happy to provide further information on the matter if required. Thanks, Onam

Hi, If you have 2 databases with the exact same table columns, and in the first database in a table column the indentidy seed starts at 1 and finishes at 32,000 can you attatch a second database so that the indentity starts at 32,001and carries on. What happens if you create a site and run out of disk space and need to attach another database which is located on another server??? I am really confused about this.Hope someone can give some links to some articles about this as I can't find any information about it.How can this be done? Thanks
I am trying to use the example in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/915852. This creates two databases SourceDB and TargetDB. If I put SourceDB on the same SQL Server instance as TargetDB, the messages is received with no problem. If I put the SourceDB on another Server so than I am using two separate servers in the same domain, the message never gets to the TargetDB. I have changed the routes to the correct server names and set the route port to 8286. CREATE ROUTE [myRoute] WITH SERVICE_NAME = 'SourceService', address = 'TCP://toto:8286'; and: CREATE ROUTE [myRoute] WITH SERVICE_NAME = 'TargetService', address = 'TCP://devbox05:8286';
My SourceDB is on one of several instances on the server toto. My instance is totofoxylady01,52005. The certificates were generated using the passwords in the article.
Hi,On my laptop I am running Virtual Server 2005 with 2 x Windows 2003Servers. Both the VS can access the internet and shared files on thehost laptop. On the host laptop I have a SQL Server 2000 running.I have written a Windows Service to detect Application Errors and fireduplicates of events to the database, and this service sits on both VS.It does work as I have tested it on host. BUT everytime I makeapplication errors on the VS nothing is deposited into my database.Very frustrating!I have also tried to create a ODBC connection through the Data SourceAdministrator, and when I enter the login credentials for SQL I getconnection error messages.Any suggestions would be great!ThanksSun
Hi, i´m new to SQL SERVER, I've been using Oracle and MySql without problems so far. I'm having problems to connect to SQL SERVER on my local machine. **UPDATE I can connect via command line, but from Visual Studio can´t connect to SQL SERVER Sometimes I got this error: [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access denied. And sometimes something about enabling remote connections in SQL SERVER , but the server is in the local machine. what´s suppose to be the name of my server? localhost? what am I doing wrong, ? I have no problems to connect to Oracle and mysql with Visual Studio. Thanks in advance
I need to create a new table on a SQL Server 2005 Database, but the data needed for the table is kept in different databases on different servers.
Half the data is on the SQL 2005 database, so that shouldn't be too much of a problem, but the other half is on a SQL Express database on a different server, is it possible to write a T-SQL query to retrieve this data on the other server?
Normally I use a create table + insert into kind of query to create custom tables but I don't know how to connect to the SQL Express server/database using T-SQL (if it's possible at all?) to do this.
Any tips, hints, ideas very welcome. Please use small words and short sentences.
I have a report that was designed using SQL Reporting Services that sits on a SQL reporting server. It's nothing too exciting, it is essentially a three page application with legal jumbo on pages 2 and 3 and applicant data in fields on page 1.
We use rectangles to force page breaks to page 2 and to page 3.
When running the report on the report server, it shows and prints fine.
When running the report from the QA website internally, it shows and prints just fine.
When running the report from the production website from a machine internally, it shows and prints just fine.
When running the report from outside of the company network, the report is jacked. It obliterates large chunks of text, crams text together, and creates blank pages.
I need help in determining where I even begin with trouble shooting this!
can anyone tell me if they know of a way to automate the update process from development servers to live server, with little interference from an administrator
I have a development team that are constantly updating their databases along with their ASP code, and want to publish changes an a weekly basis. They have asked me for a way to take their new structures, tables, procedures etc, and copy them to the live servers, but NOT to interfere with existing customer data.
Funny I know – and I hate the idea btw :(
Any references, contacts, 3rd party tool recommendations welcome,
I am in the middle of a major migraton project, moving from x86 SQL 2000 to IA64 SQL 2005. I have a business need to link to several legacy servers. I have a number of problems I am trying to solve.
1) Linking a Kerberos server to a non-Kerberos server. 2) Linking x64 or IA64 servers to x86 servers. 3) Linking SQL 2005 to SQL 2000.
Two of the errors I am encountering are: ------------------------------ TCP Provider: An existing connection was forcibly closed by the remote host. Login failed for user '(null)'. Reason: Not associated with a trusted SQL Server connection. OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "SCDC250DB" returned message "Communication link failure". (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 10054) ------------------------------ And ------------------------------ The OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for the linked server "SCDC250DB" reported an error. Authentication failed. Cannot initialize the data source object of OLE DB provider "SQLNCLI" for linked server "SCDC250DB". OLE DB provider "SQLCLI" for linked server "SCDC250DB" returned message "Invalid authorization specification". (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 7399)
If someone has worked through these problems before, I would appreciate it if you could direct me to the relevant documentation to resolve these issues.
Thanks!

I designed the AlwaysOn wrong, but every time we fail over from primary server to another server, my applications cannot connect because the sql logins cannot connect to their default databases. Once I run the command to link the login with the user in the default database then the users are able to connect. Did I do something wrong when designing AlwaysOn?
I try to import my SSIS packages which are created using the Business Intelligent studio into SQL server 2005 but I cannot do that.
I am running SQL server 2005 enterprise edition.
Also when i tried to connect to Integration services using Object explorer, it only prompt me for server name. I cannot change the username and password which is disabled.
Then how am i supposed to connect to Integration services on a server in this case?
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" />.
Hi, We have two servers one is the LIVE SERVER and another one is TEST SERVER. The Dumps from LIVE SERVER has been restored onto TESTSERVER. Now, when I try to run some applications in TESTSERVER it starts executing it in LIVE SERVER. When I checked up the SELECT @@SERVERNAME value in TEST SERVER, it still refers to TEST SERVER only.
Is there any other table or value I need to check. Can anyone help me on this.
I need to archive about a years worth of data from 4 tables, but as available disk space is very limited on the source server, I need to copy out the selected records to a seperate server. Is this possible and how.
does anyone have a script that I can adapt to collect the status of all my servers please? I am managing 20+ servers, plus MSDE installs with various applications and its now a nightmare tracking each one. I am building a central database where information such as this can be referenced but i need to populate it and then updated it regularly, hopefully with a scheduled job and some nifty sp's.
any ideas how i can achieve it if the scripts are not already around? i use PRINT @@VERSION currently, can i execute this in a different format to assess a different server from the one running the process?
I've just downloaded and installed SQL Server 2005 Trial Edition in an HP 2660rx Itanium server. I can see from the Configuration Manager that there is a service running a database instance which I created during the installation but when I try to connect to the new database thru the SQL Server Management Studio it doesn't find any (when Database Engine is the selected server type) server names. In SSMS console only when I select Integration Services as the server type it detects the server name.
What could be wrong? In my server I just made a clean installation of Windows 2003 Server and SQL Server is the only software I have installed since that.
hello all I have a web application(asp.net) and Database(sql server 2005) . we have installed them on several servers. now we want to have a connection between apllication on one server to a database on another server . for example we have Server(A) and Server(B) the DataBases and Web apllications on two server are the same. sometimes the Apllication on server(A) must connect to database on server(B). whats the solution plz? note that the number of servers can be inceased in the future this mean the number of servers are not fixed. thanks
Hi All,I have recently published a website to our webserver and i get a sql error. We have a webserver that does not have sqlserver on it and and our database server which does. i have used the configuration utility to to setup my users and roles which created the ASPNETDB in my local App_Data folder. Is there a way to copy this database to our database server and change the references so the site refers to the new instance on the database server as apposed to the local instance when a user logs in?ThanksBryan
can anybody tell me about Linked Servers and their uses and how to add a linked server to my Sql Server 2005. any help on this would be highly appreciated.
I have two sql servers, A and B. each one has one database, A and B. I am trying to write a stored porcedure in database A to retrieve the data in database B. how do I do it? can you give me a simple example. (like "select")
I have been trying to Link two sql servers on two different machines over the Internet without any luck. Can someone point me to information about doing this with good examples?
I have two db instances on different SQL Servers. One is my test db and the other the prod. db. Each has two tables that hold lookUp values for the entire application. I would like to keep these tables in sync. in both dbs. The prod. db would be the master. I was trying to design a trigger to insert, update, or delete the appropriate records in the test db as they were added or deleted from the prod db. I'm getting too many prefixes errors on the script when trying to reference the table on the test db using four part naming convention. Any ideas on how to resolve this issue? Do I need to set up a linked server to accomplish this functionality? If so, how do I setup security for a linked server? Thanks in advance. Oscar
need some help! Im doing an asp.net project on my laptop. im using the web matrix and sql server. my laptop is on its last legs so i need to start using my PC in college. Now here is where it gets complicated. Last year we had accces to a server in the college to run .net pages across the network. But there has always been some problem with that server so there was no way of connecting to sql server. At the moment i have heard that some students use an orion web server to connect their pages to an access database,which wont do me. Here is my plan, im going to install sql server on my computer(could get in trouble though!). i just need a web server on my machine to test my pages out without having to go accross the network of the college. Any ideas? i have cassini but have never used it. There is no IIS on the computer so that is out the window
I currently have a main SQL Server which had a column on the majority of the tables. This column also had a check contraint on it. I dropped the column and the constraint and I now get the following message when trying to query the tables through a linked server 'OLE DB provider 'SQLOLEDB' supplied inconsistent metadata. An extra column was supplied during execution that was not found at compile time.'.
Does anyone have the general syntax for updating one database on one server with info from another database on a different server? Both are SQL Server 7.0.
Hi All, I have successfully linked a server and had SQL queries running OK for a few weeks, but today I get the following message....
"OLE DB provider 'SQLOLEDB' supplied inconsistent metadata. An extra column was supplied during execution that was not found at compile time." (Server: Msg 7353, Level 16, State 1, Line 1)
I've dropped the link and recreated it but I still get the same error message. Can anyone help???
