When I try to connect to SQL Server 2008 R2 Instance using Management Studio 2008 R2 with the valid credentials, I get "Bad IL Range (Microsot.SQLServer.SMO)" error.
However I can access server using SQLCMD succesfully and see that there is no problem with the database.
What do you think the problem might be?
I think there is a good chance this error is caused by a virus that has corrupted your SQL Server installation, or at least some component SQL Server is relying on. If you have the same issue I had, unwinding it may not be easy either. This is because standard uninstall fails with the same "Bad IL range.." error, and even after using command line "msiexec /x" options to remove the related GUIDs, reinstallation fails with the same error.
I'd be very interested to hear how someone else got around this issue, but I think a complete Windows reinstallation may be in order, and that would be my answer, painful though it may be. I came to that conclusion after also looking into other suggested causes including fully uninstalling and reinstalling all .NET components after some answers pointed to corrupted .NET assemblies as being a potential cause. Make sure you back up your databases prior to wiping the system and just reattach them after your get your installation working again. Good luck!

I'm sure this has been answered before, but every example I try I can't seem to connect to my SQL Server.
I'm using SQL Server 2014, and the webpage is being hosted in IIS on Windows 7 x64.
I'm trying to get my webpages to build themselves recursively from information in a database, I've configured IIS to run ASP pages (I believe its classic ASP as opposed to ASP.net, but I may be wrong)
I started by looking at examples that basically returned all entries in in a particular column in a table, however when i got error messages on trying to load the page:
An error occurred on the server when processing the URL. Please contact the system administrator.
If you are the system administrator please click here to find out more about this error.
I tried stripping it down to bare minimum, i.e. just opening the connection to the database.
And even then I get the same error, here are a few of the examples I tried:
Example-1
Example-2
Example-3
Firstly if anyone could tell me how to debug it further, i.e. getting proper error messages that actually tell me something useful, that would be a good start.
If there's any information I missed then please ask.
If you've given your files the extension .asp then it is Classic ASP
Do you know what version of SQL Server you're using? If it's express then you need to say so in your connection string eg Data Source=yourserveraddress\SQLEXPRESS
I recommend using the OLEDB method in Example 3 rather than the ODBC method in 1 and 2 but they should all work. This is a good resource for Connection Strings

I've been attempting to migrate from my own MSSQL to Azure Database services.
I got all the firewall things working and the database running on the azure, but when I try to connect through the local pc it crashed with an unknown exception.
So does visual studio.
Any ideas what could cause this unknown error?
Heres a picture demonstrating the crash and its not a user/password error. Just not.
Maybe it's better if you try to provide the Exception/Error code. You can use:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ff394106.aspx
I had similar problems and in the end it turns to be the connection I've used - so one option is to restart your LAN/Network.
Update: According to me is config related error, please see these solutions here:

Sql Managment Studio stop working, sending me this message:
Package ‘Microsoft SQL Management Studio Package’ failed to load
I follow the solution from this page

I delete it HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft SQL Server\100 key, just like the page says. Now, ssms.exe it's not starting!!! Not even an error message. The article says that, after restart the machine, the registry will be recreated, but I don't have the registry! What am I missing? Now I don't have error message nor Sql Managment Studio!
I don't know how to help you get back the sql server but for those that haven't deleted "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft Sql Server\100\Tools" yet, just rename it to "HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Microsoft Sql Server". You don't have to delete the whole thing. That should work but it doesn't fix it for some. If that is the case, check your .net permission setting s. You might have changed MY_COMPUTER_ZONE code group from full trust to everything. Change it back to full trust. Note that .net permission settings cannot be changed in version 4 and later versions.
This is my first try of Visual Basic 2010 Express, though I have 10 yrs+ experience in VBA.
I'm running Windows XP SP2 on a desktop pc with following installed:
Visual Basic 2010 Express... just installed!
SQL Server 205 Express ... been running on pc for 12 months
I've created a new DB in SQL for my test application, but have not added any users or permissions to it as I'm using Windows authentication.
I've created a new Windows Forms Solution in VB2010EXP and tried adding a new Data Source for my new SQL DB, but it keeps giving error message about not having rights ot the db.
2 days of searching on the web has confirmed many others with similar issues, but no obvious solution. Eventually I find a few threads about permissions and moving the mdf into the root of the HDD, so try moving my mdf file up closer to the root of the Hard Drive
msf was in C:\Documents and Settings\_SharedData\Application_Data\MSSQL2005\Data\
now in C:\SQL2005\Data\
Now I can finally add a data source to my Db and start to use VS.
Problem is now occasionally when I am workng in VB and then go to the SQL Management Studio and try and view/change my DB, it gives an error and I cant access my DB. I then have to detach and re attach to my DB before I can work on it.
So my questions are:
Surely the location of my MDF file
should not be critical???
Do I need to add a user and
permission to my DB or should VB be
able to deal with this automatically
as I'm using windows authentication
Are then any known issues with
VB/VS causing errors in SQL
Managment Studio?
Thanks in advance

SQL Server runs on a different Windows Account to the one you use. You can check this by going to services (Run > Services.msc) and under SQL Server, go to properties and the Log On tab. I think by default 2005 uses the 'Network Service' system account. Now the reason you can't attach an MDF sat inside your documents folder is that account doesn't have access to your documents. You could give it permission, but you're much better off having the databases closer to the root as you have done.
Your connection to the database is driven by the connection strings you use. My personal preference is to create SQL Login accounts for my applications, and give them the least possible permissions they require. You could do the same using a Windows Account if you prefer.
I'm sure there are a couple. What is the error you are getting that prevents you accessing the Db? If we can see this error we may be able to help better.
Hope that helps.
what is meaning this error , when I want to install sql server 2005 ?
> TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Setup
None of the selected features can be installed or upgraded. Setup cannot proceed since no effective change is being made to the machine. To continue, click Back and then select features to install. To exit SQL Server Setup, click Cancel.
The message is pretty self-descriptive. The installation doesn't believe you're making any changes to the machine. Google/MSDN/Microsoft Help is a much better forum for this question than stackoverflow.
It thinks you are upgrading a systme already installed rather than a new instance. Check installed programs to see if there is a previous version; if you are doing a new instance make sure you specify it as you go through the wizard.
