connection object cannot connect to [local] server

Asked by SpaceManagers in MS SQL DTS

Tags: , , ,

using SQL Server 2000, in a dts package when I create a connection object, if I type in the full address of the named instance including port I can connect without any problem. However, if I try to set the server as [local] I get an error message :
---------------------------
Package Error
---------------------------
Error Source : Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server
Error Description : [DBNETLIB][ConnectionOpen (Connect()).]SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
I want to be able to specify local so that we can deploy the package to different environments without the need for editing.
thanks in advance for your help
