SQL 2012 :: Opening Files Result In Connect To Database Engine Prompt?
Feb 24, 2014
When opening .sql files, I get a connect to database engine prompt every single time. how to stop this from prompting vs. just using my current active connection?
I have a solution with a couple of ssis projects in it. Everytime I open the solution, Visual Studio creates an extra .database file for the project's existing xxx.database file. The solution is under VSS control and VS2005 checks out the project and shows the file as a newly added file.
What causes this and how can I prevent this from occurring?
There are 2 of us working on the solution and the other fellow does not see this behavior.
The files do not show up in the VS2005 solution explorer. If they are user specific as I suspect (impersonation info?), then they should not be added to the .dtproj project file.
Using the following code we are having a problem connecting a clients WIndows Mobile device to the SDF under IIS. We have success elsewhere. Does anyone have any clues ?
i installed sql server 2005 but cant connect to database engine. i write (computer name)sqlexpress but it failed. error is:
TITLE: Connect to Server ------------------------------ Cannot connect to rezasqlexpress. ------------------------------ ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: -1)
I've just installed a brand new instance of SQL on a new server. It's for our Helpdesk/Inventory software. All I needed to install was the DB Components and the Tools (primarily for Management Studio). I did not install SQL as a default instance, but called it TRACKIT8 (software using this instance). I have subsequently installs SP2 before trying to connect to the DB.
I am unable to conect to the DB Engine via Management Studio. In the Server name: field, there is a blank space, so I try to browse for a server, but I get nothing. I try to manually type the name of the server (NIASSQL2, localhost etc) into the field, but I cannot connect to the engine at all. I can see the services for the Server and Server Agent have started in the SQL Server Configuration Manager and I am able to change certain field in the properties of the Server and Agent (change the path of the error logs).
Is there something I am supposed to configure before I try to connect via the Management Studio? I am looking to change the paths of the Data Files, as I don't want them on my C: partition. Plus I have other instances I want to create and install. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
I can connect to Analysis Service and Integration Service but I can not connect to the Database Engine. I receive the following error message:
Cannot connect to homebase.
Additional Information:
An error has occurred whlie 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 doesn not allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 25 - COnnection string is not valid)(Microsoft SQL Server, Error:87)
I have recently installed SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition. I did not install all the features, just the Database engine and Analysis Services. I also updated everything with SQL Server SP2.
So far, so good. But when I tried to connect to the Database Engine, I get a little window with the following message:
"Cannot connect to Valentin-PC (server name)."
"Login failed for user - User Name - ( Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 18456 )".
I have tried just about everything, but to no avail. What is strange is the fact that I can connect to the other server type that I have installed (Analysis Services). No connection problems there.
I just installed SQL server Enterprise 2005 and connected database engine in SQL server management studio, but it is blank space when choose 'browse for more' at server name field. What's reason to cause this problem?
Questions for this problem:
1. Do I need to open the TCP port 1433 in firewall by hand for connect database engine?
2. I can€™t find the sqlbrowser.exe in SQL server/90/ folder, can I copy this file into it.
3. The SQL server mobile is work; I can connect the new created database. What€™s different to use SQL server mobile and database engine?
4. I got five discs from Microsoft; I have installed DVD server application and pack 2. Do I need to install the library?
I have below table in the snapshot, My task is to send the same output as a attachment in Excel to email. i used the below procedure  EXEC [msdb]..sp_send_dbmail @profile_name='TSSSendMail', @recipients='mymailID@gmail.com.com', @subject='DB Mail', @body='HI Team', @execute_query_database = 'DbName', @query = 'EXEC J16ReimbursementFortnightly1TO15 1', @attach_query_result_as_file=1, @query_attachment_filename = 'SummaryReimbursement.xls'
But I am not getting Proper Output, is seems like CSV Format, but i want it proper tabular format in Excel.
When trying to open the sharepoint webpage I'm getting this error - cannot connect to the configuration database sharepoint 2010.Database is on SQL server 2008.Tried opening the site on server - got the same error.Googled and tried to start the mssqlserver services (browser and sql server) but they fail to start with error code 17058.
Googled what this error was about and some solutions led me to check the error log in event viewer. For mssqlserver I got following message in the event proverties window -Â Could not open error log file <path of log file> ''. Operating system error = 5 (access denied).When I tried to login on the sql server management studio, it does not let me login and gives error -Â
I got to know that this can happen due to unexpected reboot of server. I checked my server and it had actually restarted unexpectedly.URL...
I am trying to run MS SQL Server Management Studio Express. According to what I read, I can connect by selecting Database engine, then on server name, I put my computer name sqlexpress. I am using Windows Authentication. Every time, I get:

Hello I've just installed 'SQL server 2005' and it installed the components like .Net2.0 and visual studio 2005 . before installing them I had uninstalled sql server2000 . I ran SQL management studio and tried to connect and makin' servers it doesn't allow me to connect or making any new servers...... it gives me this error Cannot connect to local. Additional information: An error has occured while establishing a connection to the server. ...... error:53)
I am working (or trying to work) in Management Studio. I have one database that I use on my one and only machine. ( I am not using any of the default databases.) I have several queries saved as files, which I open as needed. Every time I open a file I get that VERY ANOYING Connect to Database Engine dialog box. OK, it's no big thing. I don't use Server Authentication so all I have to do is hit enter and I get connected. But why should I even have to hit enter once after I'm already connected?
I finally got SQL Server 2005 installed on my Vista Ultimate computer and now I can't connect in SQL Server Management Studio.
I've got a named instance; use the built-in system account; windows authentication mode. I try to connect to
Server type: Database Engine Server name: RAYWOERNER-PCRAYWOERNER Authentication: Windows Authentication
and it fails. Please help.
Thanks,
Ray

Hello, I have installed SQL Server 2005 in my PC and during the installation I have created a predefined instance (I have used Windows autentication). I could use correctly SQL Server till some days ago, when I changed the password of my PC login profile. Now, when I open SQL Server, if I click on the "Connect" button, the following error message appears (I translate it from italian version)
Unable to connect to "CARLO" Further information: An error has occurred while you were trying to establish a connection to the server. When you connect to SQL Server 2005, this error can be generated because SQL Server doesn't allow remote connections under the predefined settings. (provider: Provider Named Pipes, error: 40 - Unable to open a connection to SQL Server) (Micorsoft SQL Server, error:2)
I'm sure that the error raises because I have changed my PC access password (the program worked correctly before), but in the "Connect to Server" window the user name and the password text boxes are disabled, so I can't insert the new password... Can you suggest what have I to do?
I have C,D,E drives on server. Data files will be on D and Log on E. My question is what is best practice for data and log files for system databases during sql server installation selection? Should they be on C drive along with SQL Server installation or D & E? If they should not be on C then what is the reason and what is benefit to move them on other drives.
I'm using Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Developer Edition and I installed it under "Local System" on Microsoft Windows Vista Ultimate.
I understand that there are issues of course that occur with this, however I can't seem to understand why what I'm doing isn't working. I'm not using this on any server, just to test out ASP.NET 2.0 applications - nothing more.
I'm getting this error:

I've installed this via a mixed authentication (as suggested by www.wrox.com).
I tried enabling the TCP/IP and named pipe connections, just as previous people have done, but it hasn't worked. Nor has enabling the SQL Browser.
Is there any description on what the Remember Password check box on this dialog box does? As far as I can tell, it doesn't do anything. Every time I open an item from a project, or create a new Query, I get asked for the password, no matter how many times I have given it for the Server before.
It looks so useful, but is frustrating not knowing how to use it.
I have a question about opening files in the Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Management Studio.
In the old Query Analyzer from SQL 2000 I can open SQL Files via drag & drop (from explorer to QA) or open it with a double click in the explorer. Then the Files opened, if I had actual a connection to a server / database (QA is stared with one file and has a connection to Server/Datebase), with this connection.
Now in Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Management Studio I'll be asked everytime for Server and have to get the database from the database list - it does not connect automaticly to server/database, that is actual connected (I have opened a file with the connection and a connected database in the object explorer).
Someone do not have this problem - but we found no option to set it up.
I need some help please. I've got SQL 2K (default instance) and SQL 2005 Express installed on Vista Ultimate. I want to upgrade the 2K instance to 2005 Developer. I ran this from the command prompt:

I have just finished configuring my first test mirrored environment (High safety mode). I setup the database engine service accounts on each of the servers with domainuser. I inherited a production mirrored environment set up by someone else. On the production servers the database engine service account is NT Authorityuser a local account. I am trying to practice installing Windows updates within a mirrored environment and I not sure how to proceed when the service account is NT Authority user account. should I change the service account to a domainuser?
All I want to do is open an .mdf file. So I have downloaded and installed SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. I have searched HELP but I see nothing simple. How do I add a file to this server so that I can read the file in Access? Thank you very much for any help you can give. David Thomas
In SQL Server Management Studio, it is possible to do the following:
a) In Object Explorer, connect to a particular SQL Server Database Engine, let's call it X. b) Use that connection to generate many SQL queries, connected to X, in the right-hand pane. c) In Object Explorer, connect to a particular SQL Server Database Engine, let's call it Y. d) Use that connection to generate many SQL queries, connected to Y, in the right-hand pane. e) Close the connection to X, which was created in step (a), from within Object Explorer.
In the right-hand pane, I am now left with a bunch of queries connected to X, and a similar bunch of queries connected to Y. Any quick way to shut all the queries connected to X, but none of the queries connected to Y?
This question can assume real practical importance if server X is a Live Production Server, and server Y is a Test Server, and my next job of the day is to run a change script against server Y....
I have looked for an option in Management Studio to "Close all queries connected to Server X", but haven't found one.
I have a SQL cluster which ran out of disk the other day. I threw plenty more disk at the SAN. However, 1 of the databases came back with Recovery Pending and has been over 24 hours. I have tried to backup the database with no success. I don't have a clean backup from the day it occured so would have a good amount of work missing.
Running a dbcc check returns the following:
Msg 945, Level 14, State 2, Line 1
Database 'sqldb' cannot be opened due to inaccessible files or insufficient memory or disk space. See the SQL Server errorlog for details.
I have not tried a dbcc check with REPAIR_ALLOW_DATA_LOSS as there seems to be a high risk of losing whatever was going on. how I can get the db back online?
I can't install the SQL Server 2012 Express version with tools downloaded from [URL]
I'm getting the following error:Â
Error installing SQL Server Database Engine Services Instance Features Could not find the Database Engine startup handle. Error code: 0x851A0019
I'm trying to install a new stand-alone version with a default instance but always getting this error. From the features I'm installing the database engine services (not the replication), all the tools, only the basic management toolds and the SQL Client connectivity SDK.
Further in the installation I'm choosing the Windows authentication and in the list of SQL administrators I've already tried to install as current user but also as System. Both with the same error result.
Iam trying to connect to local copy of sql sever express from the command prompt with this command(sqlcmd) but i get the error below. What should i do to overcome the error.

Document contains one or more extremely long lines of text. These lines will cause the editor to respond slowly when you open the file. Do you still want to open the file? on every file containing a Script Component? I've got a project with about 21 packages, ~ 3/4 of them having multiple Script Components and every single one of them makes me click through the warning dialouge to open the file. That means simply opening the project takes about three minutes and almost complete attention through the entire process. Builds offer the same headache since the creation of a Deployment utility inexplicably requires every file in the project be open. As far as I can tell, the warning is a result of Script Components being included in the .dtsx file as a pre-compiled binary. I didn't specifically ask for the binary to be included in the file, so why would the standard behaviour raise a warning dialouge by default? Please tell me I'm doing something wrong.
