BCP delivery fails on 64 bit windows and 64 bit Sql Server

Troubleshooting


Problem

After upgrading to SqlServer 2005 SP2, BCP delivery no longer succeeds. The customer uses Sql Server Aliases

Symptom

-----Delivery 'HUB_Occurrence_Type': BCP Output file-----
SQLState = 08001, NativeError = 53
Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]Named Pipes Provider: Could not open a connection to SQL Server [53].
SQLState = 08001, NativeError = 53
Error = [Microsoft][SQL Native Client]An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote connections.
SQLState = S1T00, NativeError = 0

---------------------------------------------------------

DM-SSL-0060 Delivery 'HUB_Occurrence_Type': BCP process failed (status 1)

DM-BLD-0005 The delivery 'HUB_Occurrence_Type' failed.

Cause

The latest version of BCP does not read the alias information from the 32 bit SqlServer client install location.

Environment

Windows 2008 64 bit

Diagnosing The Problem

If the BCP command issue by Data Manager fails outside of the Data Manager execution and the customer uses SQL Server aliases, verify the location of the Alias files

Resolving The Problem

Copy the SQL Server 32 bit Alias information into 64 bit Aliases
