| | What is the name of the computer where your SQL Server hosting the WhatsUp database is installed (if you are using the default SQL Server 2005 Express, this is also the system where WhatsUp is installed)? Is it different that "MONITORWORLD"? |

| AmbarK (6/12/2008) What is the name of the computer where your SQL Server hosting the WhatsUp database is installed (if you are using the default SQL Server 2005 Express, this is also the system where WhatsUp is installed)? Is it different that "MONITORWORLD"?the computer name is called "ndwhatsup", same as it was with version 11 installed. Both the whatsup program and database are on teh same machine. I've tried switching the drivers back and forth between SQL Server 2005 "Microsoft SQL Native Client Version 09.00.3042" and what it was left as after the upgrade "Microsoft SQL Server ODBC Driver Version 03.85.1117" which was what the version 11 used so it didn't seem right. The test connections complete successfully, and the whatsup polling engine is connected...just get that wicked error mentioned in the first post |

| | From the error message it looks like it is looking for SQL Server on a computer named "MONITORWORLD". Can you please send me the contents of the following registry key? HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\WhatsUp (I am assuming that the DSN you are using is called WhatsUp) |

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\WhatsUp (I am assuming that the DSN you are using is called WhatsUp) ohhh well im not the original poster, their server/instance was called monitorworld, but the error is otherwise the same on my system regardless, here are the contents of that reg key: Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00 [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\ODBC\ODBC.INI\Whatsup] "Driver"="C:\\WINDOWS\\system32\\SQLSRV32.dll" "Description"="Whatsup Database" "Server"="Ndwhatsup\\Whatsup" "Database"="WhatsUp" "LastUser"="ndbackup" "Trusted_Connection"="Yes" |
