Unable To Edit Windows Password In Connect To Server Dialog

Jan 15, 2007

Hi,


I think my description says it all. I have just installed Studio Express for the first time.

I want to attach a database. When the connect to server dialog is displayed the user name and password text box is greyed out. The Password box is blank and I need to edit this. I switch to SQL authentication they are enabled but if I switch back to Windows authentication they are both greyed out.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled but still no luck,

Any help would be great.

Remeber Password On Connect To Database Engine Dialog

Nov 26, 2007

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.

Thanks,

-Rob

I Changed My Windows Password And Now I Cannot Connect To SQL Server On My Development Machine

Jun 11, 2007

I changed the login password on my computer today, and now I cannot connect to the SQL Server instance I have on that same machine. I am using Windows Authentication. I would think that, if I can log on to my computer, I would be able to connect to the database, since I have been "authenticated" by windows but, that does not appear to be the case. Can anyone offer any advice? Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.

Unable To Connect To Remote Report Server From Windows Forms App

Jan 14, 2008

Hello Everyone,

I have a Report Server setup on my laptop (XP Pro SP2). I have developed a report which I would like to view from a Windows Forms Application (VB.NET) using a ReportViewer. When I try it from the local machine it works correctly, but if I try to connect and preview the same report from my other PC (Vista Home Premium) I am getting the "Unable to connect to the remote server. A connection attempt failed because the connected party did not properly respond after a period of time, or established connection failed because the connected host failed to respond." error.

I have setup the Processing mode to Remote and correctly setup the ReportPath and ReportServerUrl using:

With rptRetEmp
.ProcessingMode = Microsoft.Reporting.WinForms.ProcessingMode.Remote
.ServerReport.ReportServerUrl = New Uri("http://192.168.1.2/CPMReports")
.ServerReport.ReportPath = "/CPM_Reports/Test"
.ServerReport.Refresh()
.RefreshReport()
End With

Where CPMReports is the Report Server virtual directory and CPM_Reports is the folder where the report Test resides.

I do not know if this has anything to do with the fact that Vista Home does not have Report Services enabled or it is just a permissions problem. I have red several posts that describe similiar problems, but I could not find a solution.

Thank you for your help.

Unable To Connect To DB Using Windows Authentication When Using VPN Connection?

May 5, 2012

I am not able to connect to SQL Database server using windows authentication when I am connected through VPN connection.However I am able to connect to same server using SQL server authentication and also able to do RDP to DB server machine.

I found a resolution in one of the forum suggesting to change UserRasCredentials to 0 value in *.pdk file.Since VPN connection which I am using generates instant proxy this resolution doesn't work.

Also application which I am using does windows authentication connection it is required for me to impersonate windows authetication when connected using VPN.

SQL 2005 SP2 - Windows 2003 Ent SP1 - Password Does Not Meet The Password Policy DLL

Jun 18, 2007

I am receiving the following error message when attempting to create a new SQL Authenticated login id.



Password validation failed. The password does not meet the requirements of the password filter DLL. (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 15119)



I have four servers all running SQL Server 2005 SP2 on Windows 2003 Ent. SP1. Of the four servers, only one received the above error message using the same TSQL below.



CREATE LOGIN TEST_LOGIN WITH PASSWORD = 'pvif9dal' MUST_CHANGE, CHECK_EXPIRATION = ON



All four servers are in the same domain, which if I understand correctly, the password policies are therefore inherited at the OS level by the domain. The password being used is within the password policies of the domain.



Any ideas as to a root cause?

ReportServer 2005 Print Dialog Crashes Windows...

Apr 10, 2007

I'm a developer at a medium-sized installation using ReportServer 2005. There's a problem that occurs for some users and not others. After the ReportServer 2005 report has been generated, the user clicks the Print icon. The print dialog comes up; when they click the OK button on the Print dialog, the screen goes black and their machine reboots.



We've then gone to install the latest Microsoft updates on their machine, to no avail.



After the reboot, they can print from, e.g., Microsoft Word or other applications, but they crash the OS when they print from the ReportServer 2005 report.



I know the first time you print from ReportServer, it installs some software on your machine. I don't know if the problem is related to this.



Any ideas would be appreciated.

How To Stop The Connect To Database Engine Dialog

Feb 16, 2008



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?

How can I MAKE IT STOP?

Thanks,

Gregory

Unable To Restart MSSQL Server After Changing My NT Password

Nov 22, 2000

I have recently changed my NT password and since then one of my machines has not been able to start MSSQL server. When I re-boot the machine it lets me know that it was unable to start MSSQL server. If I right click on the SQL server group in EM and try to manually start the service, it tells me that I have a login failure. I don't understand how changing my NT password would affect one machine and not the others. When I right click on the "edit SQL service registration properties" tab, all of the machines are using the NT password selection as opposed to the SQL server authentication password. Any ideas would be greatly appreciated

Unable To Edit SQL Table All Of A Sudden

I have a database with tables that are used for various front-ends, Access 97 and ASP. All of a sudden, my "Stores" table will not let me add, edit, delete, insert records. I checked security permissions everywhere and cannot figure out why this is happening. Is there something linked to this that might be running a process that might be causing this?

I click the yes button to "commit your changes to the database anyway," but then I get an error message telling me that my row was not updated. The message says "Error Message: The updated row has changed or been deleted since data was last retrieved. Correct the errors and retry or press ESC to cancel the change(s)." This time, the only option I have is to click the OK button. Can anyone give me some idea as to what I need to do to be able to update the row data in this way? Thanks.

Unable To Edit In Query Maker

Dec 10, 2006

When using the 2005 SQL Server Management Studio Express to create a new query, most of the necesary keyboard functions do not work (Return/Enter, Backspace, Delete, etc). The only way to edit in the New Query tab is to select the undesired text and re-type it. The 'Enter' key is non-functioning so all text appears on one line.

A second issue arises when trying to execute a query. I always get an error message stating that the designated database cannot be found in the System Databases group. I have right-clicked on the database (Northwnd) I am querying to create the new query and I have also used the 'USE' statement but I still get the same error message.

Windows Server 2003 Password Policy And SQL Server 2005

Jun 12, 2007

I have a complicated question that involves the password policy defined within Windows Server 2003 and how it is used in Microsoft SQL Server 2005. I recently installed windows server 2003 on my development system. I am a person that prefers to develop in the same OS that our application runs in production. After installing 2003, then a Domain administrator added my machine to our corporate domain. Now, I cannot change the local password policy to allow a simple password. I believe this is due to policy inheriting from the domain that the machine belongs to.

This ties back into SQL Server 2005 because installing sql server on a Server 2003 causes SQL Server 2005 to follow the password policies defined at the OS level. This breaks our application in a subtle way in that we create login accounts for new client databases with random password. Because the password is random it sometimes conforms to the policy and sometimes not.

In production environments, the password policies are configured differently. So I need to one of the following options:

-change the group policy/inherited policy on my machine to not inherity from the domain I joined (prefered solution but don't know HOW)

-change SQL Server to not use OS password policy

-change code to use CREATE LOGIN statement with CHECK_POLICY=OFF or change password generation code to use a stronger password. (don't want to do this as the code change is only accomodating non-production environments)



If someone has a better place to post this question, I would sure appreciate it.

SQL Server Unable To Connect... Please Help

Jan 14, 2000

I upgraded my 6.5 server to 7.0 two days ago running into small problems with the database upgrade wizard. I had some small problems with security which took me some time but was not that difficult once I figured it out. I then proceeded to switch back to 6.5 mode to transfer all the data that had been done that day to my development machine so I could then import it to the SQL 7.0 version. When I was done with the transfer I switched back successfully, started the server successfully, but I was unable to connect. I get the error "Connection could not be established...", so after several attempts to connect and shuting the server down I now am at a loss. The server runs fine in 6.5 mode but it will not connect in 7.0?? Tonight I am going to try to reinstall SP1, if that does not work I am going to try to reinstall SQL 7.0. Any suggestions???

Unable To Connect To Server

Nov 14, 2000

On a fresh installation of SQL Server 6.5, I have
opened the EM and registered the server but am unable
to connect. I get the error of 'A connection could not
be established to [ServerName]- [DB-Library] Unable
to connect: SQL Server is unavailable or does not exist.
General Network Error. Check your documentation.'

I've tried connecting with all different DB-Lib settings
to no avail. Ultimately, I want to use TCP/IP. I am,
however, able to connect to other SQL Server boxes from
this EM, just not the local server. I am able to stop
and start the services from Control Panel and from SQL
Service Manager.

Since I haven't been able to log into the local SQL Server,
I've registered the server in EM to log in with sa and a
blank password. I've already completely uninstalled SQL
and reinstalled it to see if that would help. It didn't.

Does anyone have any idea what the problem could be?

Thank you!
Toni

Unable To Connect To Server

Jan 20, 2003

Hi,

I am running SQL 2000 on Windows 2000 Server. The clients are running different OS ranging from Win 98/NT/2000. Although i am able to connect to the local host, but whenever i try to connect over the network the following error pops up :

unable to connect to server <server name>
Server : Msg 11, Level 16, State 1
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][TCP/IP Socket]General network error. Check your network documentation.

I checked up the event long on the server and found the following entry:

Event Type: Warning
Event Source: MSSQL$NETSDK
Event Category: (8)
Event ID: 19011
Date: 1/20/2003
Time: 2:12:32 PM
User: N/A
Computer: <computer name>
Description:
The description for Event ID ( 19011 ) in Source ( MSSQL$NETSDK ) cannot be found. The local computer may not have the necessary registry information or message DLL files to display messages from a remote computer. The following information is part of the event:
(SpnRegister) : Error 1355.

May i further clarify that this error started today n till last week end (saturday, i am

stationed in India) there was no problem and the users were able to connect to the server

without any problem. My network engineer feels that its an sql problem and has nothing to do with network related issues.

i would appreciate if anybody could help me out. thanking in advance

Unable To Connect To Server

Aug 2, 2001

From my Win98SE box with MDAC 2.6sp1, I can't connect to SQL (win2k, sql2k).
I've tried everything I know but nothing works.

I always get the following error:
Unable to connect to server 192.168.1.2
ODBC: Msg 0, Level 16, State 1
[Microsoft][ODBC Sql Server Driver] Timeout Expired

some additional info...
- both computers are in a workgroup, not in a domain.
- this is a home network and they're connected via a Linksys cable modem router
- another box on this same lan can connect to sql just fine, although it's
running win2k.
- all boxes have identical DSN, Subnet...settings
- I also installed Jet4.0sp1 just in case, but that didn't help either
- I'm primarily trying to connect via TCP, although I have tried Named Pipes
as well
- i can ping both boxes from each other just fine
- odbc ping fails

MDAC has worked beautifully for me for the last several years. Did MS
change something recently...or is there another problem?

Thanks, Andre

Unable To Connect To Server

Oct 25, 2005

Hello. I am very new to SQL Server. I've tried to look through other posts on the forum but did not find the solution I needed. Please help.

I have SQL Server running on Machine1 which I am able to connect to. What I want to do is connect to this server through a Machine2 that is on my network.

Both Machines run on WindowXP Professional

On the server of Machine1, I have:
1. Under the security tab, I have created a New Login using SQL Server Authentication (general tab), checked all server roles (server roles tab) and checked to permit all databases (in the database access tab)
2. On the server, went to properties -> security tab and allowed for SQL Server and Windows authentication

On Machine2 when I try to register the server of Machine1 through the Register SQL Server Wizard, I am able to see the server. However, when I use the newly created Login Name and password (from step 1 of above). I get a Login Failed for user message. When I try to connect to the server through Query Analyzer I also get an unable to connect to server message (Server: Msg 18456, Level 16, State1)

What else do I need to configure to make it work?

Thank you!

UNABLE TO CONNECT TO SERVER

Jul 20, 2005

If you place an image of your server on a rebuilt server, rename it andchange the SID. You get an error message “UNABLE TO CONNECT” when youuse the SQL Query analyzer on a desktop computer to connect to theserver (hosting the image). If you add the server (hosting the image)to the Windows2000 server domain/active server and restart the server(hosting the image), you get the following error message: "YOUR SQLSERVER INSTALLATION IS EITHER CORRUPT OR HAS BEEN TAMPERED WITH (UNKNOWNPACKAGE ID). PLEASE RERUN SETUP."Wouldn't you think changing the name, the sid and adding it to a domainwould be enough to access it. I even created a new ODBC connection.*** Sent via Developersdex http://www.developersdex.com ***Don't just participate in USENET...get rewarded for it!

Thedata sources for the bound forms are linked tables, the record source typeis set to "Dynaset" and the record locks are set to "No Locks". "Opendatabases using record-level locking" is checked.The write error says that another user has changed the current record sinceit was opened (since I'm currently the only user this isn't possible) andasks me to copy my changes to the clipboard or drop the changes.Can anyone suggest what might be causing this?
