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.

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 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:

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 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 an application which connects to SQL Server 2008 via windows service.Basically,windows service pics up a configuration file to get connection details like instance name , user name & password.Currently this windows service is failing to start with following error message :-
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)
Application server and DB server are different machines.I can connect to SQL Server via SSMS from application server without any issue. Also I created a UDL on app server and it also connected fine to DB server. Any help here is much appreciated.
Check the account under witch windows service is running- most possible that account is not allowed to make connections to other computers.
I have been unable to configure my SQL Server 2008 Express to allow remote connections. I followed the instructions from this guide: http://www.linglom.com/2009/03/28/enable-remote-connection-on-sql-server-2008-express/ .
I am still getting the following error:
Cannot connect to 00.00.00.000
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: 3)
I also configured the firewall as defined in http://blog.sqlauthority.com/2009/05/21/sql-server-fix-error-provider-named-pipes-provider-error-40-could-not-open-a-connection-to-sql-server-microsoft-sql-server-error/ . As a test I even turned off the firewall, but nothing changed, so it is not the issue.
Update under server name, it only says the IP address. Do I need something more?
In the Server name field of Connect to Server, I had myipaddress. I changed it to myipaddress\SQLEXPRESS and it works.
In addition, once this was working without the firewall I applied settings as defined in http://www.sevenforums.com/system-security/58817-remote-access-sql-server-express-2008-windows-7-a.html to make the connection work with the firewall turned on.
Do you have sysadmin rights in sql express? It may be that your user account doesn't have the necessary permissions. There is a script on codeplex that will add you logged on account as a sysadmin.
