I am failly new to SQL DBA functionality. Can anyone help? I am getting this error at the point of clicking on 'Start Mirroring' on the Database Properties.The Mirror database has been restored with NO Recovery, so this isn;t the problem. The transaction log was also restored with no recovery . All ports are ok on both systems using 5022 and TCP is enabled, checked with telnet for ports. Firewall on local machine has 5022 in exceptions under TCP/IPAny ideas would be much appreciated.markg |

I think 1418 is always a connection error...could be wrong...but you're right, the error message would be quite helpful |

can someone explain in more detail how he fixed this?I am getting the same error as this no matter what I try. I have the principal and the Mirror on different subnets. There is no DOMAIN. I can ping each server from the other, in fact I can connect to both servers from the SQL Server Management Studio.When I try the following from the Mirror database it works:ALTER DATABASE UMACS set partner = N'TCP://EXFINAP01:5022'But when I try the following from the Principal Database I get the 1418 error:ALTER DATABASE UMACS set partner = N'TCP://EXFINAP02:5022'I have followed all the step by step guides on line, backing up DB and log and restoring with NORECOVERY etc. I have TCP and Named Pipes enabled and TCP port is 1433 etc.can anyone point me in the right direction? I think it may be something to do with permissions but I don't know how to confirm this.Thanks in advance. |
