Hi all,
I am trying to connect to MS SQL 2014 Server from SLES11 host, using FreeTDS
0.95.51 version and its tsql utility. The server uses "Standard Mode" (SQL
Server Authentication) and I am able to connect from Windows using SQL Server
2014 Management Studio.
Before sending this email I've read through FreeTDS troubleshooting, FAQ,
domains page, config page, archives and various SO questions - tried the
recommended configurations but with no luck (details below).
The command being run is:
env TDSVER=7.0 TDSDUMP=/tmp/tdsdump.log TDSDUMPCONFIG=/tmp/tdsdumpconfig.log
./src/apps/tsql -H <host> -p <port> -U <username> -P <password> -D <database>
The output:
locale is "C"
locale charset is "ANSI_X3.4-1968"
using default charset "ISO-8859-1"
Setting <database> as default database in login packet
Error 20017 (severity 9):
Unexpected EOF from the server
...
Tailing TDSDUMP along with the execution shows that error is happening after
the login packet is sent and FreeTDS tries to process the login tokens:
login.c:852:quietly sending TDS 7+ login packet
token.c:327:tds_process_login_tokens()
<<
Error 20017 (severity 9):
Unexpected EOF from the server
>>
query.c:3772:tds_disconnect()
Looking on strace seems to confirm that server disconnects after login packet
is received (poll() returns positive after sendto(), but recvfrom() returns
0):
write(5, "login.c:852:quietly sending TDS "..., 48) = 48
...
poll([{fd=6, events=POLLOUT}, {fd=4, events=POLLIN}], 2, -1) = 1 ([{fd=6,
revents=POLLOUT}])
sendto(6,
"\20\1\0012\0\0\0\0*\1\0\0\0\0\0p\0\20\0\0\6\203\362\370U\354\0\0\0\0\0\0"...,
306, MSG_NOSIGNAL, NULL, 0) = 306
write(5, "token.c:327:tds_process_login_to"..., 39) = 39
poll([{fd=6, events=POLLIN}, {fd=4, events=POLLIN}], 2, -1) = 1 ([{fd=6,
revents=POLLIN}])
recvfrom(6, "", 8, MSG_NOSIGNAL, NULL, NULL) = 0
write(5, "query.c:3772:tds_disconnect() \n", 31) = 31
Things I tried listed in no particular order (assuming the issue is with
authentication and not network):
* Use UTF-8 encoding
* Disable SSPI: ./configure --disable-sspi (so that trusted authentication
will not be triggered)
* Compile with latest OpenSSL version we have installed: ./configure
--with-openssl=/.../openssl/1.0.1/bin/openssl
* Explicitly disable OpenSSL: ./configure --without-openssl
* Modifying the code in ./src/tds/mem.c to disable check_ssl_hostname by
setting it to 0 in both places it appears (assuming it triggers checking
server's SSL certificate and fails to authenticate). Verified using debugger
that *((tds)->login) object has check_ssl_hostname set to 0
* Modifying the code in ./src/tds/tls.c to change location of certificates
pointed by ca_directory[] to a directory I know we have updated internal
certificates
Things I still need to check with MS SQL Server admins:
* Try to see if they can give me access to server-side log for my connection
attempts
* Check if server requires two-way authentication for SQL Server
Authentication - doesn't seem like it, but I will check
If someone has any other ideas as to why the connection drops, or other
things I can do to investigate further, I would really appreciate that!
Thanks!
Alex
