I need to reinforce SQL Server Native client 11.0 which fixes this issue (tried and tested via SSIS) but cant find the procedure. Please help
Try this folder: C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\Client SDK\ODBC\130\Tools\Binn
It works on mine:

I am trying to create scheduled task for auto backup in SQL Server 2019 based on this article :
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/troubleshoot/sql/admin/schedule-automate-backup-database
As recommended in order to test if the auto backup is working, I have to run the batch file containing this command:
sqlcmd -S .\EXPRESS -E -Q "EXEC sp_BackupDatabases #backupLocation='c:\AutoBackup\', #backupType='F'"
I ran it in the command line to test if its working fine but I get the following error:
Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server : MAX_PROVS: Error Locating Server/Instance Specified [xFFFFFFFF]. .
Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server : Login timeout expired.
Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server : A network-related or instance-specific error has occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. Server is not found or not accessible. Check if instance name is correct and if SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. For more information see SQL Server Books Online..
I installed Sql server ODBC driver for another issue that I faced before and also checked that remote connection is allowed as SSMS is working fine.
Any advice is appreciated.
Have you double checked that your SQL Express instance is actually named "EXPRESS"?
When you connected using SSMS, did you also used Windows Authentication?
Your command breaks down as follows:
This part defines the server/instance. IN this case on the local machine with a Named Instance of "EXPRESS"
sqlcmd -S .\EXPRESS
This part states that you want to use Windows Auth with the currently logged in user
-E
I have a series of SQL Server instances that I need to connect to from inside a docker container using SQLCMD. These target SQL Server instances frustratingly have different versions with some on Windows Server 2012 and some on Windows Server 2003. When I try to connect to the Windows Server 2012 instances and execute sql commands using a command such as sqlcmd -S IP_Address,Port_No -U username -P password -i input_file.sql, it works perfectly. When I try the same for the Windows Server 2003 instances, I get the following error:
Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server : Login timeout expired.
Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server : TCP Provider: Error code 0x2AF9.
Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft ODBC Driver 17 for SQL Server : A network-related or instance-specific error has occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. Server is not found or not accessible. Check if instance name is correct and if SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. For more information see SQL Server Books Online..
Is this just a situation where the connection syntax changes for Windows Server 2003? I have tried many different tweaks to the connection string but each returns the same message? Is SQLCMD even supported for Windows Server 2003? I would really appreciate any suggestions. Thank you.
I have a Microsoft SQL Server, running in a Window Server 2012 R2 Standard. The configuration for this SQL Instance is: Servername: IP\SQLEXPRESS( IP here is the IP address of the Window Server) with SQL authentication username and password.
I would like to connect to this remote database from my local machine, so I installed sqlcmd on my local machine Win 7, and tried the syntax to connect to this remote server: sqlcmd -S IP\SQLEXPRESS -U username -P password, but then I got some error messages:
Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft ODBC Driver 13 for SQL Server : SQL Server
Network Inte rfaces: Error Locating Server/Instance Specified
[xFFFFFFFF]. .
Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft ODBC Driver 13 for SQL Server : Login timeout
expired.
Sqlcmd: Error: Microsoft ODBC Driver 13 for SQL Server : A

I searched some solutions in the Internet and did some configurations for the SQL Server, such as: enabled remote connection in SQL Server, activate TCP/IP Protocol, open incoming TCP Port 1433 by defining new rule in Windows Firewall of remote server, open outgoing TCP Port 1433 in my local Win 7 machine. But it seems there changes are not work in my case. Can anyone give me some hints here to fix this remote connecting problem?
Thank you in advance!
try use only sqlcmd -S IP
not IP\SQLEXPRESS
I am having trouble connection to a local instance of Microsoft SQL Server 2012, this is what i have tried so far:
SQL Server Configuration Manager
Enable TCP/IP
Enable Named Pipes
Enable Shared Memory
The SQL Server, SQL Server Browser and SQL Server Agent services are all running.
I have verified that there is a SQL Server instance with: sqlcmd.exe -L this command gives me the following:
Servers:
(local)
MON-W530
SQLCMD
sqlcmd.exe -S MON-W530\MSSQLSERVER -E Gives the following output:

OSQL
OSQL.EXE -S MON-W530\MSSQLSERVER -E Gives the following output (Identical to sqlcmd.exe above)

Its a fresh installation of Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Developer Edition, any help is appriciated.
Edit
Using SQL Server Management Studio 2012, i don't have the option to specify username and password for Windows Authentication, so i guess its not enabled, any clues on enabling Windows Auth is also appriciated.
i have this error:
Password: HResult 0xFFFFFFFF, Level 16, State 1
SQL Server Network Interfaces: Error Locating Server/Instance Specified [xFFFFFFFF].

I try to connect by cmd to sql server and i use this command:
sqlcmd -U sa -S server\istance_name
The prompt requires the password, but when i Insert the password, i receive the error message.
I see the Sql server configuration manager and the TCP/IP in Enabled.
I try a telnet connection on port 1443 and it is ok.
Have someone solution?
My psychic powers are telling me that the SQL Server Browser service is disabled or firewalled on your server. Without that, servers with instance names cannot be resolved.
