I have a problem on connecting microstrategy to a local database:
I'm unable to resolve this error, though I have tried everything in ODBC origins, and tried various drivers.
The server name is correct (SQLExpress2017)
If anyone knows how to resolve this issue, please help.
How to connect Micro Strategy 10 to SQL Server
We cannot connect the SQL SERVER 2017 through local by making the sql server dynamic access by allowing TCP/IP using(sql configuration manager)
NOTE
1)Within your network your system be accessible making dynamic sql server
After create odbc in Microstrategy server.in creating ODBC password should be your sql server username and password and create database instance in microstrategy.using datawarehouse catalog fetch the table based upon the instance you created

Hi,
I am trying to connect Azure sql database from Access database . However its giving me the following error.
When I try with the same credential from SSMS its connects perfect however, can't connect through ODBC.
Can anyone had the same experience or anyone has any input to resolve this issue?
Thanks in advance!
You need to install ODBC driver 17 for SQL Server. You need to restart computer after installing the driver or the connection won't work. Create a Machine ODBC DSN using this driver.
Provide now the Azure SQL server name:
Use SQL authentication.
On the next screen specify the database name (catalog).
Make sure you set Encrypt=True
I searched through all threads on the web available, but none could help me.
I am trying to connect to SQL Server engine from SQL Developer. In order to do that I enabled Named Pipes and TCP/IP from SQL Configuration Manager.
Then I tried different drivers:
I tried Microsoft JDBC driver for SQL Server - I cannot choose in connection manager SQL Server database type, so it does not work..
I tried jTDS driver instead, and it worked - I can choose SQL Server database type, but then all I get is an error informing that it cannot connect to Microsoft SQL Server on localhost (I tried localhost, name of my computer, none of which worked).
Is there anything more I can do?
EDIT
This is what I have so far:
SECOND EDIT
I had more problems:
With error saying
Status: Failur-I/O Error: SSO Failed: Native SSPI library not loaded. Check the java.library.path system property
Using windows authentication, I still got asked for username and password.
(All details and solutions in my answer below)
We only support the jTDS driver for SQL Server and Sybase ASE connections, so that's the way to go.
After that, it's up to you to get a correct connection string to your SQL Server system.
Make sure you have the right port in addition to your 'localhost' network location for your SQL Server instance.
This is using version 19.1 of SQL Developer to connect to a SQL2012 instance overseas..
Actually there were more problems, which I'll post here along with solutions:
In order to ba able to connect SQL Server database type from SQL developer it is needed to install jTDS driver, as already mentioned. Other types are not supported by SQL Developer.
Next thing was to configure with SQL Configuration Manager (the easiest way IMO) SQL Server to listen on IP port 1433, not dynamic, as was previously set. In order to do that in configuration manager I had to go to SQL Server Network Configuration and make appropriate changes. More here.
Next I had problem:
Status: Failur-I/O Error: SSO Failed: Native SSPI library not loaded. Check the java.library.path system property
Which was the fault of missing file, solution was placing file ntlmauth.dll to the /jdk/bin in SQL Developer directory.
I chose Windows authentication, which apparently is not supported by jTDS, so I needed to create user in SQL Server, which I use to connect SQL Server from SQL Developer.
After all that, I had it working.
My objective is to use the migration tool in SQL Developer to migrate 2 SQL Server databases to Oracle. I am attempting to connect to a SQL Server database at a remote location using Oracle SQL Developer 4.0.
I have installed jtds.1.3.0.jar per instructions, and get the SQL Server and Sybase tabs in the connection properties window.
I have entered the user, pw, hostname, port, and database name. When I try to Retrieve Database, or connect, I get the error message:
Status : Failure -Test failed: I/O Error: DB server closed connection.
The SQL Server DBA tells me her error logs contain the following error message:
Encryption is required to connect to this server but the client library does not support encryption; the connection has been closed. Please upgrade your client library. [CLIENT: (my computer's IP address)] Error: 17835, Severity: 20, State: 1.
When I look at SQL Server documentation about this error message, it talks about certificates and SQL Server Connection Manager. Some relevant information to show that I've covered the basics:
Using the same connection parameters, I am able to connect to the SQL Server database using Toad for SQL Server.
Using the same connection parameters, a DBA set up an Oracle Transparent Gateway, and I can connect to the SQL Server database using the gateway and a database link. (As far as I know, neither of these methods required a certificate to connect.)
Both of these use ODBC; SQL Developer uses jdbc with TCP/IP.
The DBA assures me TCP/IP connection is turned on for the SQL Server databases.
I have gone into the XML file where SQL Developer stores the connection string. It has the form jdbc:jtds:sqlserver://sql-xxx-xxx.mw.nos.xxx.com:1433/my_db, which looks correct. I have tweaked it by adding the instance name, but no difference. The database has a default instance name, anyway, so it shouldn't be necessary.
A co-worker has been able to connect to a local SQL Server database on the same machine where SQL Developer was running (both on his laptop).
As a workaround, I am also pursuing the possibility of installing SQL Server on a local workstation, and copying the databases there for processing, but I don't know if I can get approval. If you know another tool for migrating from SQL Server to Oracle, please also let me know.
Thanks in advance.
I am trying to connect to one of my MS SQL Server databases with the Filemaker Pro ODBC driver. I am using the database service. However, whenever I try to connect to my database it sends either an error that it can't connect to the datasource or an error that the username or password is incorrect. I know the credentials I am using are correct because I can connect to my Jetbrains IDE and to the mssql library in node.js with the same credentials. Does anyone know what the problem could be? My database is running on Azure. Do any setting need to be changed in the driver based on using Azure that could cause the problem?
I have checked the instance name, auto close is set to true, allow remote connections on the server is checked. The server is running when I open the SQL Server configuration manager. I have even rebooted. I have created this db the same way as all others. I use Entity Framework and have checked the names in the web.config and they match. This is the default connection string from the wizard - I use for testing before I deploy. I just can't think of anything else to check to figure out why it won't connect. Working inside SQL Server everything is fine.
Here is the general error.
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: Shared >Memory Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server)

Thanks in advance.
Let me preface this answer by saying that proper setup of a SQL instance is not as easy as Microsoft would like you to think with the entity framework. It's a little bit involved and requires that you put your DBA hat on for a little bit.
The error you have indicates that the web instance is attempting to connect to the SQL server using Windows Integrated Security. This will work fine if (a) the windows user that the process is running as (which can be configured in IIS) is authorized to log on to the SQL server and has a valid login in the database and (b) if the SQL server is on the same machine or in the same domain as the IIS server.
In light of this, I recommend using SQL Server authentication. If you need to know how to do this, I recommend searching for "SQL Server Authentication setup" - here is an article that I found which might help you set this up.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa337562.aspx
In general, I recommend taking the following actions:
Connect to the sql server using MS SQL Management Studio.
Permanently attach your database, then use the Initial Catalog property on your connection string rather than AttachDbFileName
Then set up your login username and password on the SQL server, and create a login in the database for it.
Make sure your login can only execute the stored procedures you want it to execute. Deny it access to running sql statements.
You will also need to add the username and password to your connection string, and set IntegratedSecurity=false.
Let us know how things go once you get your SQL server set up properly.
This error means that your provider code cannot find the SQL Server. If you have checked the server instance name (it should be <yourLocalServer>\SQL_1), then it could be the attachdbfilename= parameter, as this is a really unreliable way to specify the database to connect to (you should be using the Database Name, not the file name), because there are about a hundred reasons that the file name could change that have nothing to do with your application.
