  • when i am doing BCP out command i am getting this error

    C:\Users\ADMIN>bcp master.sys.syslogins out c:\syslogins.dat -S admin-pc\admin -T

    SQLState = 08001, NativeError = -1

    Error = [Microsoft][SQL Server Native Client 10.0]SQL Server Network Interfaces:

    Error Locating Server/Instance Specified [xFFFFFFFF].

    SQLState = 08001, NativeError = -1

    Error = [Microsoft][SQL Server Native Client 10.0]A network-related or instance-

    specific error has occurred while establishing a connection to SQL Server. Serve

    r is not found or not accessible. Check if instance name is correct and if SQL S

    erver is configured to allow remote connections. For more information see SQL Se

    rver Books Online.

    SQLState = S1T00, NativeError = 0

    Error = [Microsoft][SQL Server Native Client 10.0]Login timeout expired

  • As the error indicates, bcp cannot find the server in the server\instance string in the -S switch.

    If the server is correct, I would wrap the string in double quoutes ("), because it is likely the DOS shell is having issues with the dash in the string
