sql server odbc: I am very new to SQL server. I have successfully installed it on a =
server. But when I try to setup an ODBC connection from my client =
machine I get the "SQL Server does not exist or Access Denied. "

There are two computers on the LAN connecting through a hub.

Its probably something basic that I am missing.=20

Thanks

Ping the sql server to make sure that it can be seen on
the network. If necessary try using the sql server ip
address instead of the server name in your ODBC
parameters. Also make sure the user account that you're
using for the ODBC connection exist on the sql db with the
appropriate access rights.

Hello,

I have a similar problem:
I try to connect from a Windows 2000 Workstation to
MS SQL Server 2000 via ODBC, but I can't. :-(



When I try to create a Server DSN connection to
the server, I get the following error message
(I have to translate some words to english, so it
may read a little different for others):

Error on connection:
SQL State: '01000'
SQL Server Error 10061
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][TCP/IP Sockets]ConnectionOpen (Connect())
Error on connection:
SQL State: '08001'
SQL Server Error 17
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][TCP/IP Sockets]SQL Server does not exist
or access denied

- I can ping the SQL Server by name and IP address
- I have tried the name and the IP address in the ODBC driver
- I am using SQL Server authentication and sa as user
- I have tried to install different MDACs:
- first I had the MDAC 2.6 (which seems to come with W2k sp4)
- I downloaded and installed the newest update of MDAC 2.6
- I then installed MDAC 2.7 (SQL Server ODBC Version 2000.81.9001.00)

(Connecting to MS SQL Server 7 on another server poses no problem)

Has anyone a suggestion what I still can do?
Thanks for listening.

Regards,

Hello,

I have found an embarrasingly simple solution for my problem:
installating the newest Service Pack (sp3a) for SQL Server 2000
helped - I can now access the server via ODBC, if I also
install the newest MDAC version on the client computer.

I still don't understand the error codes, but now it works!

Regards,
Garrit

I'm having the same problem with a client using MSDE on a 2000 server with service pack 4 trying to connect from a 2000 workstation.

I'm having a similar problem.

First some facts:
-i've got a Windows 2000 Domain
-with 2 DC's , both W2K Srv SP4
-one of them with SQL2000 Std/SP3a.
-There are about 20 Clients in the Domain, all W2K Pro SP4.
-There are (much) more than enough CAL's, SQL- as well as ServerCal's.
I can see in the License Administration, that there is a sufficiant
count of unused licenses.
-The existing workstations run well, but need to be replaced because
they're weak.
I've set up a sample/"image"-system to be copied by TrueImage. The
machine is set up equal, is in the same domain, has the same software
installed, is in the same Network/ Segment, gets a valid DHCP-Lease and
so on.
Nameresolution / DNS Works, but in ODBC, neither Servername nor
IPAdress in work.
It cannot be a matter of missing rights because i'm setting this up
with domain administrators right, and use the "sa" for the
odbc-connection. And as i've written, it works on the old machines with
exactly the same accounts, but not on the new ones.
Garrits Solution doesn't work for me as this sqlserver already runs on
SP3a.

thanks for all Hints

but not now.....

we've "solved" it like this:

we're working with a special application that connects to an SQL-Server
through ODBX.
We had a couple of workstations running fine, which were to replace by
faster ones. Now, i've prepared the faster ones with applications,
prepared "defaultuser"-Profile and so on. Teking those new clients to
the domain lead to the mentioned problem.
Setting the systems up new, put them into the domain and doing all
ODBC-Stuff then when i got them in the domain worked.

Now it seems that our particular application (Papyrus capture, a very
special OCR-Application) messed up something still undisclosed when
installing it on a local machine and putting it to the domain
afterwards. Doing it the other way, first taking it into the domain and
installing this application afterwards works fine.

The reason is unclear as we've used SQL-authentification (which is not
my favour anyway, but this was demanded from this software's produceer)
and that should be independent from Domain-credentials.

Kind regards


Robert

Ok well I am still confussed about this. I have 2 PCs that were working
fine on the ODBC but now they don't connect. Nothing has changed as far
as I know.
We are using MS SQL Server 2000 with OnBase scanning software.
SQL authentication is being used. Could this be a CAL issue at all??
is it the registry edit problem? (TcpTimedWaitDelay & MaxUserPort)
Is there anything I can do that is not too drastic? There are still 5
other clients working fine, set up in the same way, who I don't want to
disturb.

thanks

You wrote "5 other clients are still working fine", while 2 don't. How
many CAL's do you have?
