Named Pipe Connection through ASP - HELP!

We have a problem with interfacing a dll which is called through an Active Server Page. Our network infrastructure uses Named Pipes on Windows 2000 with SQL Server 2000 IIS version 5.0 and MDAC 2.5.

When the ASP calls the dll which (should) insert a new record into a SQL table via a stored procedure call (wrapped as a COM object), we receive the following error:

80004005 SQL Server does not exist or access denied error.

We have tried running this from the Server Admin account, but makes no difference. If we use TCP/IP the mechanism works fine, unfortunately this is not a route we can utilse without significant overall network security implications.

Any advice much appreciated!As you probably know, that's a generic error code. It could be network problems (firewall etc), file permissions or location, or any number of other things. This link shows some of the possible causes (http://support.microsoft.com/support/kb/articles/Q169/3/77.ASP?LN=EN-US&SD=gn&FR=0&qry=80004005&rnk=1&src=DHCS_MSPSS_gn_SRCH&SPR=SQL).

mysql and ASP

Hi all, i've just set up an mysql server on my computer and now i want to
connect to a mysql database with an ASP page but i can't find the correct
connection string. I always get an error that the datasource can not be
found.

ConnString =
"Driver={MySQL};SERVER=mysqlhost;DATABASE=myDB;UID= userID;PASSWORD=pasword"

What's wrong with it?[posted and mailed]

No idea, but you are probably more successful in getting an answer if
you ask in a forum devoted to MySQL. You posted your question in groups
related to MS SQL Server.

My Report Manager is missing...Need help ASAP!

Cannot find the report manager. I tried starting the Report Manager from the
start menu on the server and received this error "Page cannot be displayed".
I then tried from the authoring comupter start menu and got the same message.
I then tried to deploy a report to the site and received and error "cannot
connect to the report server". I have never gotten these messages before.
There was some recent work on the server but that shouldn't affect RS should
it. Any ideas?
Thanks in advance.What version are you on?

If security was set up then you need the keys from the initial server.
Alternatively, do a clean install of reporting services and reload the
reports via visual studio...
This way is alot cleaner and simpler with the nice way one can
"deploy" reports.
