You're in the inetserver asp general group:

inetserver asp general:
What does your connection string look like? Are you connecting to the SQL Server by its host name? If so, can your server resolve that name? Is there a firewall in between? Is the server's network cable unplugged?

I have the same problem. We recently moved our ASP app from Windows 2000 to Windows 2003 Web servers, and when we did this our problems started popping up. When we moved to the new servers, we also changed the connect strings from using ODBC DSN's to OLEDB connect strings. To troubleshoot if that was the cause, we copied the modified app back to the 2000 box, complete with the new connect strings, and never saw the error happen there. We've tried adding adding "Network Library=dbmssocn" into our connect strings, but that didn't help. We added the SQL server to the hosts & lmhosts.sam files, and did the same on the SQL server (added the web servers to the files) - but that didn't help. We used the client network utility to enable both TCP/IP & Named Pipes on the web servers - but that didn't help. I've seen too many other posts on google to believe that this is an isolated problem. I've also seen posts that made me believe that this has something to do with going from Win2000 to Win2003. The error is very sporadic. We have 100+ users on the app all day long, and only every once in a while the error happens. If the user hits refresh right after the error, the connection work just fine. Please help!

I've tried the following connect strings... "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=revsql01;Initial Catalog=RPM;User ID=rpmuser;Password=xxxxx" "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=revsql01.revonet.local;Initial Catalog=RPM;User ID=rpmuser;Password=xxxxx" "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=revsql01;Initial Catalog=RPM;User ID=rpmuser;Password=xxxxx;Network Library=dbmssocn" "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=revsql01.revonet.local;Initial Catalog=RPM;User ID=rpmuser;Password=xxxxx;Network Library=dbmssocn" I'm currently using string #2 above. The ODBC DSN's were system DSN's, and used the DB name, username, & password as above. Using #2, I can connect a thousand times successfully, and have 1 error somewhere in the middle. The servers are connected to the same Catalyst 2950 switch, and they all have hard wired hosts files - so I can't imagine that resolving the other server is a problem.

I have no problem with hardwiring the IP - I don't expect that to change anytime soon :) I just added 2 aliases for the server (revsq01 & revsql01.revonet.local) in the client network utility using TCP/IP and pointing at the IP address of the server instead of the DNS name.

Are you connecting to the server by name, external IP, internal IP, ...?

For #2, have you tried using an IP address instead of a server name? DNS (not DSN), WINS etc. can be flaky occasionally, and I'm sure that could account for 1 in 1000. It could also be the switch going down briefly, or some other network glitch. A
I know that the web browser uses the hosts fle, but I'm not confident ado will do the same thing. I'm pretty sure SQL Server, at least, will attempt to use the client network library before it ever looks at the hosts file. Did you set up anything in the client network library? Are you planning to change the IP (in other words, is there some big reservation against changing the IP instead of continuing to kludge a hosts file)? -- http://www.aspfaq.com/ (Reverse address to reply.)

Well, I added the 2 aliases.. revsql01 - TCP/IP - pointed to the SQL IP address, dynamic port number revsql01.revonet.local - TCP/IP - pointed to the SQL IP address, dynamic port number My connect string is "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=revsql01.revonet.local;Initial Catalog=RPM;User ID=rpmuser;Password=xxxxx" and a half hour later, I'm getting errors. guess that isn't the fix. damn! I've tried everything I can think of, and still am struggling.

I haven't changed anything from the default, so yes.

Haven't tried different users. I had the FQDN in the connect string because I thought that would fix any DNS resolution problems, if that was the problem. I'm going to try putting the IP address directly in the connect string tonight - can't do it during the day without causing an application restart.

Is it running on port 1433, or another port?
Have you tried connecting with a different user name? And/or using the shorter server name (not sure what you're gaining from revsql01.revonet.local, unless you're trying to practice your typing skills)?

The strange thing about it all is that when I copy the entire web directory, including any connection strings, back to my win2000 server, everything works fine - no errors ever.

What happens if you put the code that opens the connection into a .vbs file and run it from a command prompt when logged on as administrator on the server?

I changed the connect string to use the IP address - and still get the errors. I don't get it - this just should not be happening. New connect string is... "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=192.168.200.40;Initial Catalog=RPM;User ID=rpmuser;Password=xxxxx" MS - are you watching this post??? I'm posting with my MSDN alias - and we're now at the deadline for resolution for my MSDN Managed Newsgroup support. I had opened a support incident before posting this, but had opened it with the Cluster group (since the website is on 2 servers running NLBS), and they were unable to help me, so I cancelled the ticket.

If you were to pick a specific page would you be confident that it would have errors within a reasonable time period (say 24 hours)? If so, I would put an error trap around the open statement in a page, log the error to a text file when it happens and retry opening the connection after a short delay. If it is successful then log that re-try succeeded. You can do a crude delay (this is a cpu-killer so only use it for debugging). t = timer() + 100 do while timer()<t loop -- Mark Schupp Head of Development Integrity eLearning www.ielearning.com [quoted text, click to view] "Scott Ivey" <sivey@online.nospam> wrote in message news:uYLL55AyEHA.3120@TK2MSFTNGP12.phx.gbl... > I've done that.

I've done that. Also made an ASP page that used the same connect string in a loop to open & close the connection 250k times, and can't reproduce the error. All I know is that every connection uses the same connect string (application variable in asp), and that the errors are sporadic, but continue to happen on a daily basis, no matter what I change.

I ran across the Address parameter on MS's support site in some articles. I had never heard of that parameter either until researching this problem. I've tried using the IP address as the data source, but that didn't cure my problems.

Why do you have Data Source and Address different? Where did you get the Address parameter (I've never used that with an OLEDB string)? How about: "Provider=SQLOLEDB;Data Source=192.168.200.40,1433;Initial Catalog=RPM;User ID=rpmuser;Password=xxxxx" A
We're using TCP/IP - and all of the connections are showing as TCP/IP thru the enterprise manager. I just thought it was interesting that the newer versions of ADO will actually try using Named Pipes if your initial TCP/IP connection attempt returns any sort of error. I tried setting it up to do this, but that didn't work either :( Scott [quoted text, click to view] "Bob Barrows [MVP]" <reb01501@NOyahoo.SPAMcom> wrote in message news:%232IUJTByEHA.1292@TK2MSFTNGP10.phx.gbl... >I suspect this means that your server is not set up with the TCP/IP >library.

I suspect this means that your server is not set up with the TCP/IP library. You need to run SQL Server setup to verify this.

Or if you can connect to a local SQL Server, you can connect and then call WAITFOR DELAY '00:00:02' ... which can simulate a sleep() call in ASP. A

HI Scott, We have been battling the EXACT same problem for over 1 year now - our huge app works perfectly on Windows 2000 server, but after moving same app to Windows 2003, we every few hours or maybe more, suddenly gets hundreds of script errors (we log all errors to central database), with the same error as you : [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access denied. I am running my app on HP DL380 server, on a HP ProCurve switched network, and all other applications, running on the same networks, has NO errors, so I think we can leave network connectivity out of the question. I have had Microsoft Consulting Services on this case, and they helped setting up the correct connectionstring, when moving to Windows 2003, but that did not remove the errors. It really seems like a generel error, which has nothing to do with our code ??? Please let me know, if you ever solve the problem - we have had this very frustrating error for over 1 year now!!!

Scott, Yes, that is exactly the same way we have this error. It is SO frustrating ... and at the same time, my other ASP apps (on Windows 2000) continues without any single connection error, using the same SQL database on the same network!
