Re: RDO failed to connect to SQL server

Tech-Archive recommends: Repair Windows Errors & Optimize Windows Performance



Thanks for your question. I can try to answer.
Error is on TS client but no message. If I go to ODBC setup, I connect to
database. When I run the apps that uses the ODBC, it fails. What I was told
by app provider that they use RDO with ODBC. ODBC connection is fine but RDO
fails. This works perfectly fine in Client server environment on Local LAN.

No error on SQL server

ODBC trace - I cannot locate but I will try that today.

No error/warning in event log

Application is custom apps provided by software vendor. It is not homegrown
and it works for us in CS environment and many other locaiton. We know that
another client has this working on TS setup so there is something with our
setup.

It fails for all TS clients. We are just setting up TS now. It works fine in
our LAN.

It fails on TS console

I will report to you ODBC tracer report if I can find where to run it. I am
assuming that it is located in ODBC setup option.

Thanks for your guidance. I was not upset with all volunteer but more upset
with MS for not having any info on technet/msdn and not looking at the post
here.

Like Helge, I didn't reply to your post because of the lack of
information to go on.
In what way does your application "fail to open the SQL database"?
Is there any error message? On the TS or on the SQL server?
Are there any errors or warnings in the EventLog / SQL log?
Did you enable tracing in the ODBC manager?
Anything in the ODBC logfile?
Is this a homegrown application, or a commercial one? If
commercial, have you contacted the vendor? Can you give us a
website for the application / vendor?
Was the Terminal Server put into "install mode" before installing
the application and all it's components?
Does it fail for all users, or does it work for Administrators?
Does it work when you run the application on the console of the
Terminal Server?

Did I say volunteer is clueless? No I said Microsoft is
clueless. Microsoft is also watching this news group. Microsoft
manges the group and has link to their website for support. They
benefit from us the volunteer. I think they should be looking to
non responsive post.

I am not sure what part of my questions you did not understood.

We know that other locaiton has same applicaiton running
with TS client.

Our location, it failes to open the SQL database. It seems
that RDO is not working in TS environment. There must be
some fix but I can't find. If anyone has any knowledge,
please help
