Named Pipes Provider Could Not Open A Connection To Sql Server 53 . Linked Server
I'm using. I have two SQL Servers installed on two separate Win2K3 Server boxes, one is SQL Server 2000 and the other is SQL Server 2005. The SQL Server 2000 contains the actual application data. The 2005 database is used only for Reporting Services. I've set up the reports on SSRS such that error 40 could not open a connection to sql server 2014 their datasources hit the 2000 server. This is using SQL Server authentication.When testing the reports via SSRS (in Visual Studio 2005), the connection to the data works and the reports are generated fine. When I deploy them to the reporting server and launch IE to test locally (still on the 2005 box), I get this "Named Pipes Provider, error 40" issue. I made sure that Named Pipes and TCP were enabled and the port set at 1433 (to match that on the 2000 box). Now I changed the datasource's authentication from SQL Server to Windows authentication. I tested this in SSRS and this works too. When I redeployed the reports with this authentication change, testing the reports via IE locally (on the 2005 box) worked. Great. Now when I open IE on an external box, i.e. on the 2000 box, and try to test the reports, I get this same error 40 issue. I've been through a

(provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 1326) Or A network-related error 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 https://www.mssqltips.com/sqlservertip/2340/resolving-could-not-open-a-connection-to-sql-server-errors/ correct and that SQL Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: TCP Provider, error: 0 - No such host is known.) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 11001) These errors could be for either Named Pipes connections or TCP/IP connections. In this tip, we look at what may be causes to these errors and how to resolve. Solution There could be several reasons you get these error messages. Follow the below steps to see if you can resolve the issue. Step 1Make sure you are able to ping the physical server where SQL Server is installed from the client machine. If not, you can try to connect to the SQL Server using an IP Address (for default instance) or IP Address\Instance Name for a named instance. If it resolves using an IP address, you can add the SQL Server machine into /etc/host file. To add the entry in the /host file type %SystemRoot%\system32\drivers\etc\ in the run window and open the host file using Notepad. In the below image I added IP address 74.200.243.253 with a machine name of SQLDBPool. Now I should be able to use the machine name instead of the IP address to connect to the SQL Server. Step 2
SERVER - FIX : ERROR : (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: ) May 21, 2009Pinal DaveSQL, SQL Server, SQL Tips and Tricks616 commentsRegular readers of my blog are aware of the fact that I 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/ have written about this subject umpteen times earlier, and every time I have spoken about a new issue related to it. Few days ago, I had redone my local home network. I have LAN setup with wireless router connected with my four computers, two mobile devices, one printer and one VOIP solution. I had also formatted my primary computer and clean installed SQL Server 2008 into it. Yesterday, incidentally, I was sitting sql server in my yard trying to connect SQL Server located in home office and suddenly I stumbled upon the following error. Finding the solution was the most infuriating part as it consumed my precious 10 minutes.Let us look at few of the common errors received:An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server.(provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 5)An could not open error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a connection to SQL Server) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: 1326)I eventually found the resolution to this error on this blog itself; so I was saved from hunting for the solution. I am sure there are a number of developers who had previously fixed this error while installing SQL Server 2008 or SQL Server 2005 but in due course forgot the right solution to this error. This is just a quick refresher. Make sure to bookmark this as you never know when you would need this solution.Let us check into the steps to resolve this error.1) SQL Server should be up and running. Go to All Programs >> Microsoft SQL Server 2008 >> Configuration Tools >> SQL Server Configuration Manager >> SQL Server Services, and check if SQL Server service status is "Running".In addition, ensure that your remote server is in the same network. Run "sqlcmd -L" in your command prompt to ascertain if your server is included in your network list. You can even find tutorial for the same here SQL
