| Hi!I was unable to connect to my dev Sql server from my UAT enterprise manager. It came up with the error message as follows: SQL Server does not exist or access denied. ConnectionOpen(Connect()).I did a lot of googling but of no avail, finally I got to this web page http://www.doughughes.net/index.cfm?event=ViewEntry&entryId=91.Then I downloaded SQLCritUpdWiz_ENU.exe and tried to execute it. I am a System administrator on this machine. However, I am unable to run this, it comes up with a message, Critical Update Unsuccessful.System Info:My OS is win XP Pro(SP2) and SQL server is 2K SP4.I have also posted this question on Microsoft Community newsgroup, no replies yet.Can anyone help? Your help will be highly appreciated. |

| So what's the deal here? Are you connecting locally? I'd imagine you were able to connect to it before if SP4 is installed. "SQL Server does not exist or access denied." is a generic error. I'd think that you are simply unable to see the server. So is it local?Daniel, MCP, A+SQL Server DBAwww.dallasteam.com |
