Unable To Connect To Sql Server From Handheld Device Via Usb Activesync And Sqlclient
Aug 29, 2006I have tried using the SqlClient class to connect to the database, but I haven't had much success. Here is my setup:
Desktop/Workstation has Windows XP, ActiveSync, .NET Framework 2.0, and SQL Server 2005.
The production Workstation will have 2000; so I do want to ensure SQL Server 2000 compatibility with my solution.
Handheld device is an Intermec 751g with docking station, hooked to PC host using USB connector cable and ActiveSync, Windows CE 4.2, .NET Compact Framework 2.0 with SP1 and latest patch.
Development tools consist of Visual Studio 2005 and C# .NET language.
Note that when I attempt to ping my desktop from the handheld command prompt I get "transmit failed, error code 11010".
Also, I am able to access the Internet from my handheld device.
My error is encountered when I execute this fill code:
int returnValue = this.Adapter.Fill(dataTable);
Please note that all of my code is generated by the VS 2005 IDE at this juncture, as I am simply trying to get the plumbing to work.
Here is the error that I encounter:
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException was unhandled
Message="SqlException"

Can Not Run SSCE31VSTOOLS-ENU -&&> No DMA In ActiveSync, No SQLCE In VS !
Oct 1, 2007I have the following problems:
- in Active Sync 4.5 there is no DMA connection available
- when selecting a DataSource in VS2005 I do not have SQL SERVER Compact Edition in the list
While testing this problem out, I found it has something to do with this update SSCE31VSTOOLS-ENU and SSCE31VSTOOLS-DEU. Both updates do not run. Instead I get a message that necessary files are missing or do not have the right version for updating.
How could I solve this problem? What is the right order to install this beasty patch?
Best greetings from Germany.

View 1 Replies View RelatedExpanding Tempdb In A Device Prevents The Device From Being Deleted
Nov 17, 1998I have a database in development in SQL Server 6.5 that needs to be occasionally deleted and rebuilt from a script when table structures are changed. I found that when very complex queries were performed, the 2 MB default size of tempdb filled up and returned errors, so I went to the Enterprise Manager to expand tempdb, learned that I had to first expand a device to expand tempdb into, and foolishly chose to expand tempdb into the same device space used by my application, instead of into one of the system databases. Now when I try to delete the device in preparation for its rebuild, the Enterprise Manager responds with an error message saying the device can't be deleted because it contains system tables. Is there any way to get the expanded portion of tempdb out of my application device so that the device can be deleted, without reinstalling SQL Server?

Feb 8, 2006I want to synchronize my database on Pocket PC / The Emulator that use WM5 and SQLCE3, but the synchronize is doesn't use IIS as the bridge, but i want to use ActiveSync as the synchronizer bridge. The rule like this.
1. Have database on Pocket PC.
2. Have application on Desktop PC.
3. When device or emulater placed on cradle, then the database automaticaly synchronized with database server on desktop pc.
Why I want to use ActiveSync as synchronizer.
1. I have the Pocket PC cradle. So my device can synchronized using ActiveSync.
2. I have internet connection on Desktop PC. So why i must pay more for GPRS if i only need to synchronize my device with my desktop pc.
Thanks.
Merge Replication Via Cradle Using ActiveSync
Aug 8, 2006Hello. Is there any possibility to connect and proceed merge replication between SQL Mobile and SQL Server 2000 SP4 using ActiveSync? I need to deal with this situation:
- mobile application is working using self .sdf database but from time to time it connects to SQL Server and do some synchronization (synch or asynch, really doesn't matter). But, when there is no network connection (broken, suspended, wifi broken etc.) I have to create an option - Pocket PC will land into cradle and I have to synch all changes made in SDF and SQL Server using ActiveSync (or something like that - via USB).
So my question is : is there any simple mechanism to do this? Or I have to write some Active Sync manager which will be dealing with my replication? (pretty hard to do). Awaiting answer - Maciej Wysocki.
PS. I am using Windows CE 3.0 but I can setup Windows Mobile 5.0 too, I am just wondering if there is any chance to make this type of synch. working.

Support Code 80072f7d". When I search the result from this forum. The answer is not related to mobile phone issues.
Will anyone able to help?

Database Device Is Getting Full...
Nov 30, 1998Hello,
I have two databases, Database1 and Database2 both have same set of tables.
Database1 has a saperate Log file, i.e. it uses different Device for its Logs.
There are two processes running using this database,
Process 1 will keep on dumping records in to database1. Here it uses Rollback and commit operations.
Process2 will take a backup of Database1 after every minute to Datavase2.
What is hapening is, after some time later, if i check the Space availabe for data then Database1 will have used 5 to 10 times more space that database2.
Can any body tell me why this is hapening. because for the same data both databases uses different size of space.
ThanX

View 3 Replies View RelatedExpanding A Database Device On SQL 6.5 SP5a
Sep 3, 1999When running Enterprise Manager from my desktop pc to try and expand a database device I am unable to do so. The size shown is negative, and the max size is the same, with the 'Change Now' box greyed out.
When I log on directly onto the server I can easily expand the db device. There is lots of free space on the server.
Our set up is quite small with four NT workstations and two NT servers with SQL Server 6.5 on them. All these six machines are in the same workgroup. The workstations are on a separate floor to the servers, which are in the computer room. I have a feeling this is a networking issue. Can anyone suggest why this is happening?
Database Recoverability When Log Device Lost
Jul 26, 1999My question has to do with the ability to recover a suspect database in the event that the transaction log device file becomes corrupt or is deleted.
Specifically, consider the case where a user database has it's data device on one hard disk and the log device file on a 2nd hard disk. The database is set to truncate log on checkpoint.
If the disk fails on which the log device file resides, the user database will be marked as suspect. Assume this disk is replaced and rebuilt from a tape backup, including the log device file (which was backed up to tape during off hours.)
Will SQL Server have any problems with this? Will database recovery have any problems with this (assuming the restored transaction log was empty)? Any other issues?
Thanks in advance!
How To Transfer Database To Mobile Device?
Dec 23, 2006Hi all, I'm new to mobile devices.
I have a desktop application that uses SQL Server Compact Edition. I will soon have a mobile application that will use the same database. How can I (at runtime of the desktop app, say when the user clicks a button) transfer the sdf file to the mobile device? I'm not necessarily interested in synchronizing the databases, simply overwriting the database on the mobile device with the one on the desktop would suffice.
Is something like this possible?
Thanks!
Open Database In A Connected Device
Jan 19, 2007Hi Everybody:
I'm writting an standar application in c# that comunnicates with a sql server 2005 in a mobile device. The mobile device is connected to the pc with an usb wire. In the sample I've made, I've inserted in the form main a datagridview. I go on the wizard to select the data source. I choose a Microsoft SQL Server Mobile Edition data connection. The data source is tge activesync mobile device. I create a new database in the mobile device called test.sdf. The wizard has a button to check the conecttion and it rules. A new connection appears in the server explorer. I add rows through a query. I build the solution and no problem, but when I start the debug session an sqlceexception occurs: Data Source not found. In the database connection that the project has created the connection string is: Data Source ="Mobile Device est.sdf";
I didn't write any code. I just went on the wizards. All the code has been inserted by visual studio 2005.
Any idea?
Updating A Sql Database From A Mobile Device
Aug 19, 2007 Hello,
VS 2005 & SQL server 2005
I developed a mobile application PDA using the Compact Framework 2.0. And using typed datasets
I have also developed a web service. When the PDA is connected to the Internet it can access the web service and get all the data that is in the sql database. The user can add new records, update existing records, and delete them. So the web service acts like a middle man.
In the PDA the data is filled using typed datasets.
However, the customer now wants to be able to interact with there data on the PDA, currently they have to be connected to the Internet. But if there is no internet connection, then they will still like to add, update, and delete the records. Then once they have a connection, all these would be updates with the sql database.
What is the most efficient method to do this.
Many thanks for any suggestions,
Steve
Visual Studio 2005 The Remote Connection To The Device Has Been Lost. Please Verify The Device Connection And Restart Debugging.
Jun 19, 2006Basically I've been using Visual Studio 2005 for a few weeks now moving a Pocket PC project from 2003 to 2005. When I hit the Start Debugging Button every time until today the project would rebuild and deploy to my pocket PC allowing me to debug etc but now I get
The remote connection to the device has been lost.
Please verify the device conection and restart debugging.
I used to get this problem in VS2003 sometimes and just like the numerous posts on different sites that I've looked at the problem eventually goes away and I'm none the wiser. One guy said that he found that if he went to bed the problem was resolved when he came back!
My PDA running Windows 2003 2nd Edition is directly connected to my PC via a USB port. I've rebooted my PC and done a soft reset on the PDA but it didn't help. I'm using ActiveSync 4.1.
Does anyone know how to resolve this problem?
Restoring SQLserver Database From A Backup Device
Dec 7, 2004Hello,
Every hour I make a backup of the log files of a database to a backup device. Each backup is appended to this backup device.
Now to restore at a point in time I normally use the following script;
RESTORE DATABASE mcs_carolus
FROM disk='E:sqlserver_databasesmcs_carolus_data.bak'
WITH REPLACE,
NORECOVERY
go
RESTORE LOG MCS_CAROLUS
FROM disk='E:sqlserver_databasesmcs_carolus_log.bak'
WITH FILE = 1, NORECOVERY
GO
RESTORE LOG MCS_CAROLUS
FROM disk='E:sqlserver_databasesmcs_carolus_log.bak'
WITH FILE = 2, NORECOVERY
GO
RESTORE LOG MCS_CAROLUS
FROM disk='E:sqlserver_databasesmcs_carolus_log.bak'
WITH FILE = 3, NORECOVERY
GO
RESTORE LOG MCS_CAROLUS
FROM disk='E:sqlserver_databasesmcs_carolus_log.bak'
WITH FILE = 4, NORECOVERY
GO
RESTORE LOG MCS_CAROLUS
FROM disk='E:sqlserver_databasesmcs_carolus_log.bak'
WITH FILE = 5, NORECOVERY
GO
RESTORE LOG MCS_CAROLUS
FROM disk='E:sqlserver_databasesmcs_carolus_log.bak'
WITH FILE = 6, NORECOVERY
GO
RESTORE LOG MCS_CAROLUS
FROM disk='E:sqlserver_databasesmcs_carolus_log.bak'
WITH FILE = 7, RECOVERY,STOPAT = 'Nov 25, 2004 11:59 AM'
Is there a simpler way of restoring without going through this long process.

How Do I Recover Database From A Detached Backup Device?
Nov 29, 2007I ran into a problem today where I had to pull a backup file from an older tape. The file was originally is a backup that was stored in a device like :
EXEC sp_addumpdevice
'disk', --type
'c2000_BackupDevice', --logical name
'\UNCPathackupFile.bak' --physical location
I put the file from the tape on a File Server and then tried to create a new backup device pointing to the file. That's easy enough, but when I try to restore from it I get an device error saying it's offline.
How can I get that device attached to my server and then extract the backup files stored inside it?
Please advise b/c this is an interesting problem I hadn't anticipated and it argues that I should change my backup strategy .
Thanks for any advice/experience you can provide,

Designing A Compact Database For Mobile Device
Apr 4, 2008Hey guys,
So I started an SQL CE database for use inside a mobile application. I used SSMS to create a .sdf file (because if I let Visual Studio do it, SSMS can't open it because it will be version 3.5).
The reason I wanted to use SSMS is because I wanted to be able to design the database in design view, and populate it with initial information for the application to use. That means adding tables and rows.
The problem is, SSMS doesn't seem to have a design view available when working with CE databases. It also doesn't seem to have a feature for adding rows into tables. It's essentially as useless as VS2008 for designing my mobile database. It only lets me add tables, and I can't even do that visually in design view. I have to use those cumbersome forms.
Is there any way to design a CE database in design view? And add rows of data into tables? It feels like I'm overlooking something.
Note: I dont need to subscribe or publish the database. The mobile application just needs to use the database as a repository.
Mobile Device Database Develpment Problems
Dec 9, 2006Hi, Guys
I read a lot of your post about the mobile device connecting SQL Server. I try to solve my problem, but i still in trouble of Mobile database application.
The following is my development enviroment
Visual Studio .net 2005
Sql Server 2005
Windows CE.Net 4.2
Microsoft ActiveSync 4.2
First i can run some simple application on the Mobile Device( Symbol MC9060G Mobile Device), all the connection between develop PC and Mobile Device is fine. All the develop SDK for the Mobile device without problem.
Secont, i can develop a simple normal windows database application, work fine, can get data from SQL Server 2005. the connection to database server is fine.
I used VS2005 develop a simple database with DataGrid on the form( all the code generated by the VS 2005), when run the program, got error at " int returnValue = this.Adapter.Fill(dataTable)"
error "PlatformNotSupportedException". I don't know what's going on.
I think the connection to the database no problem. Maybe the Mobile device has problem. I insatlled sql.ppc.wce4.armv4.cab file to mobile device.
Can someone help me out?
Thanks.

Lost Index Device File And Database Suspect
Mar 3, 2005Can anyone help me to recreate the .NDF file if it was lost and not restorable? I have a stored procedure written that will then help me rebuild all indexes on all tables, but I can't seem to figure out how to create the index file again so I can run it. I have tried index files from other databases to no avail. There is no backup to go to.
