Connection Failed error

  • Hello all,

    I receive this error it seems about 1 in 5 attempts when opening a dts package or saving a dts package or just opening up a table in enterprise manager.

    Connection failied:

    SQLState:'01000'

    SQL Server Error:10060

    [Microsoft][ODBC SQL SERVER DRIVER][TCP/IPSOCKETS]connection Open(PreLoginHandshake())

    Connection failed:

    SQLState 08001

    SQL server error 11

    [Microsoft][ODBC SQL SERVER DRIVER][TCP/IPSOCKETS]General network error. Check your network documentation.

    this error is really annoying when i have worked a few hours on a dts package and then cannot save it.

    any help would be greatly appreciated.

    thanks

    Steve, I have talked to IT and they are having no other problems. they seem to think its on the client side. We have been getting alot of timeout errors also. Maybe a slow network?

    thanks

  • I remember seeing a Knowledge Base article on this, but I'll have to search for it. Hopefully someone will find it before I do, but if not, I'll take a look for it at work tomorrow.

  • I had this problem and for me it was related to the MDAC installed (may have been just one of the dlls not registered properly). When I reinstalled the problem went away.

  • I have reinstalled the lastest mdac. I will see if this works.

    thank you

  • There is an issue with MDAC 2.6 connecting to SQL Server 7:

    This wasn't the article I was thinking about, but it did stand out. I'll keep looking.
