I'm trying for the first time to get my project to run in Visual Studio Code. This includes a MySQL database. So I've installed the SQL Server (mssql) extension version 1.7.1. I follow the instructions here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/sql/visual-studio-code/sql-server-develop-use-vscode?view=sql-server-ver15
I get to the section "Connect to SQL Server" and enter:
servername: localhost
db name: c3
Authentication type: Integrated
At the end of the section it should connect with the server but instead I get two errors:
mssql: Error "Unable to connect using the connection information
provided. Retry profile creation?"
mssql: Error 2: 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: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a
connection to SQL Server)
Does anyone see what is going wrong here?
I've re-installed the extension but with the same result.
A MySQL db and Microsoft SQL Server db are two different things.
It seems that there's no SQL Server installed? You might install the free SQL Server Express Version, create the database in there and then connect from Visual Studio Code.
You have to install the database server yourself as VS Code is just a client. You might also use somekind of hosted offers (many webhosters offer a mysql server with self service installation, or use a cloud based database server). Yout can also use a local database (e.g. SqlLite) which is file based and doesn't need a special installation.
You should do the following
install SQL server in your machine and create Database here
Create a login and a database user here
If you are Using VS code install SQL Server (mssql) open new
connection, follow the prompts to specify the properties for the new
connection profile
If you want to login to your server to make sure of your data
sqlcmd -S localhost -U SA -P '<YourPassword>'

I have SQL Server 2017 Developer installed. I want to use the SQL Server Migration Assistant for MySQL to migrate a MySQL database into SQL Server. But I can't get the migration assistant to connect to the MySQL server. First of all, using MySQL Workbench I can connect to the server with no problem through this dialog box;
MySQL Workbench connection dialog box
Using the same service, (or server) name, port and user entered into the migration assistant dialog box for connecting to the MySQL server;
SQL Server Migration Assistant connection to MySQL Server dialog box
I get an error message saying,
Cconnection to MySQL failed. ERROR [HY000] [MySQL][ODBC 5.2(w) Driver]Unknown MySQL server host 'Mysql#127.0.0.1' (0)
I've tried selecting both the ANSI and unicode ODBC drivers, version 5.2 and 5.3. Nothing seems to work.
You need to remove "Mysql#" from the connection string. This isn't a necessary part of the hostname when connecting through SSMA.
I just installed SQL Server Management Studio and it auto creates a server with your PC name to connect to, but it doesn't connect - all I get is this error. I tried reinstalling and also there's no server with that name in the services to start
TITLE: Connect to Server
Cannot connect to DESKTOP-7UA72F9.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION:
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: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 2)
It looks like you've installed Management studio only. Server doesn't come with it. Could you provide additional info on what steps you went through exactly? What install files did you use?
If you're looking to play with MS SQL Server, there is an Express version, it's free.
I just installed MS SQL SERVER MANAGEMENT STUDIO 2014 , but when I open it I have to add a server name to connect it but it is showing me following error when I enter server name.

I don't know what to do now, help me out please.
Thanks

Here's mine, if it helps. See if you should have more to it, like SQLEXPRESSPC in my case.
You need to provide an instance name.
Instance Name has been provided during the installation process of SQL Server.
Inside the Server name combobox, you should type something like : .\SQLEXPRESS or .\MSSQLEXPRESS depending on your version of SQLServer.
The .\ refer to your local machine.
I have a problem with connection to SQL Server 2008.
My problem is all simple user can't connect to SQL Server 2008 but just the admin in subdomain only who can connected.
I test the connection with these steps:
control panel / set up odbc
system DNS / I choose SQL Server
click on the bottom Add
in the Name=test, and the server = I choose SQLSERVER
When I clicked Next bottom I have error 18452.
Connection failed: SQLState: '28000'
SQL Server Error: 18452
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server] connection failed.
SQL Server Error: 18452
Login failed for user ". The user is not associated with a trusted SQL
Server connection.
You should create new DSN with changed Authentication Mode from Windows Authentication Mode to SQL Server Authentication. Then specify login and pass for connection. This login should be added on SQL too.
I were trying to do the same, saw a lot of videos trying to accomplish the add of the DSN but this was my solution.
I'm running Windows Server 2016:
I ran the ODBC 64bit -> System DSN tab -> Add button
Then I selected SQL Server, since i had SQL Server Management Studio 17.
I putted a Name and the fact that is really important: Write the SQL Server you know you have connection to on the Server field.
Be sure you had configured the Security on Server authentication for SQL Server and Windows Authentication mode and then write the user you know that have access to that Data Base.
Last step: you click next after putting the info of the user that have acces to the SQL Server and the connection will pass.
Hope this help someone.
I have a sql server hosted on go daddy that I simply am unable to connect to using Visual Web Developer 2010 Express or Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio.
Cannot connect to RBSAssetTracker.db.2574383.hostedresource.com.
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: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 67)
Am I missing something? This seems like it should be relatively simple to accomplish this.
first check whether you can ping the database server then check following
Step 1) Make sure SQL SERVER is up and the instance you try to connect is running.
Step 2) Your system Firewall should not block SQL Server port.
Step 3) Go to Computer Management >> Service and Application >> SQL Server 2005 Configuration >> Network Configuration
Enable TCP/IP protocol. Make sure that SQL SERVER port is by Default 1433.
Step 4) Now follow this KB Article of MSDN depending on your server : http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;EN-US;914277
open your godaddy account,
click launch under your webhosting menu,
click on SQL server database
click actions-->details and watch for the 'hostname'
it will be like : databasename.db.99999999.hostedresource.com
copy and paste that thing to 'Server name' while logging to your management studio
Enter your godaddy sql-server database username and password to login in management studio. It should work right.
