Cannot Connect To Database After Exiting The Program.

Mar 6, 2008



Hello,

I have been writing this piece of software for quite a while. And as it got bigger and bigger (more forms, more datasets) I started experiencing the following problem.

Well, I use an MDF file as a database container that gets copied to the destination directory after each build.

Well here is what happens:
I launch my application, work with it, search the database and so on and so on.
Then I exit the application.
I launch it again and I get en exception saying that file counld not be located on the disk.
I close the app, and run it again. I get the same thing.
Somtimes after a couple of tries I get an error saying that my user does not have rights to access the default database. (I have windows authentication on SQL server)

Now here is the trick: I open SQL Server Management Studio Express detatch (Delete) the database from the default server (the only one in the system ".SQLEXPRESS") and the application runs again.

What am I doing wrong? How can I programatically detatch the database from the server (Maybe some sql command)? Do I need it though?

This is the connection string that I use for connection:



Code Snippet
Data Source=.\SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|\MyAppDB.mdf;Integrated Security=True;Connect Timeout=10;User Instance=False




But the confusing part of it is that it happend on my work computer and not on my home computer. I have the same User/Password/Workgroup/VS version/MS SQL versoion/Windows version on both machines.


Thank you.

Integration Services :: Expressions Not Working After Exiting A Sequence Container?

Sep 21, 2015

I have an SSIS package that is pretty simple.

An Execute SQL task returns one row with two values that are correctly stored into variables.

Based off those two variables, a sequence container is chosen to execute.

That sequence container then does magic. The last step of the container has an execute SQL task that runs and stores the result in a variable - let's call this[User::result] with type Int32.

Based off the value in [User::result] one of two final tasks run. A non zero value executes one task; a zero value executes another. Basically,SOMETHING runs after this.

Simple? I thought so... except Step 4 doesn't work. If I set a post-execute breakpoint on the sequence container, the variables are populated as expected, but nothing else runs. If I add another task to run (without a conditional expression) to run after the sequence container completes, the pre-execute breakpoint shows the data looking exactly as I expect.

Those script tasks are just MessageBox.Show calls and the expression, as you can see, doesn't use variables at all.

How To Update My Program With A Database

Dec 22, 2006

I need help to decide how to proceed.

I have written a program using vb 2005 express that will create menu items after the user presses a particular button. So if the user picks a mountain dew then inside the reciept window(list box) the user will see 1 MT DEW $1.00 also as the user selects more items the price is calculated and displayed also.

This part of the program works fine. After using the program for a while I realized that I will need to update prices and be able to add and subtract items from the menu that customers order from. The way I accompolish this now is to go back into my code and rewrite alot of code. From reading the forums I think that a database would be a good solution because what I have gathered so far is that by seperating the data into tables i.e price_table it would be easy to update anything in that table and not have to change the code anywhere else.

I have created a database that contains a table for menu items and each item has a menu_item ID,menu_Name and I also have a Price table and each price now has it's own price_ID

I would like to have code under the button click event like so:

createMenuItem(By Val Food_ID as Database object, By Val Price_ID As Database object)

display(Quantity,Food_Name,Food_Cost)

Food_Cost = Quantity * Price_ID



I know that this code does not work but If someone reading this has any ideas which part of database programming this falls under I could use a nudge in the right direction.

In a nutshell I would like to create menu items using the id's from the database

the data in the database would remain static and would only be used to supply arguements for my procedures and function that I use now.

Any help would be appreciated.

When I Try To Restore A Database A Message Comes Up Saying That It Is Being Used By Another Program, How Do I Stop This?

Mar 17, 2008

I am reading a guide telling how to create a private server and it says I need to restore the database. So I go to File->Open->File->My Computer->Local Disk->Program Files->Microsoft SQL Server->MSSQL.1->MSSQL->Data->GunzDB. Then the following message comes up: "The file cannot be opened because it is being used by another process. Please close all applications that might access this file and try again."

The question is, how do I get past this? I need the answer as soon as possible, I am a newb with this program so I don't entirely know what I am doing. I have tried searching for the answer, but I cannot find anything.

Thank you.

Delay Between CREATE DATABASE And Ability To Connect To That Database

Oct 9, 2006

I have an application that creates a new database during installation,and I've noticed some strange behavior. Once I've created thedatabase, I am able to immediately create tables and populate lookupdata, provided I remain connected to the server. If, however, Idisconnect and attempt to reconnect immediately, I'll get an errorsaying that my login is invalid for the new database.I can get around this by having my code simply wait 5 seconds beforeattempting to reconnect, but I'm curious to see if anybody here cangive an explaination for why this is happening. Here is a bit ofpseudo code to explain what I'm seeing:open new connectioncreate databasecreate tablespopulate tablesclose connection// open new connection /* can't do this yet, as it would break */for (int a=0; a<5; a++){Thread.Sleep(2000)try{open new connectionbreak;}catch{Debug("still waiting...");}}Running my version of this code, I'll see that "still waiting..."message go past 2-3 times before SQL Server wakes up and realizes thatI'm allowed to connect to it. Anybody know why?Thanks,Jason KesterExpat Software Consulting Serviceshttp://www.expatsoftware.com/---Get your own Travel Blog, with itinerary maps and photos!http://www.blogabond.com/

I am new to windows apps in .net 2.0. I am trying to create a windows service that will connect to a database and email info out to people that have had status changes.
Right now, I can not connect to the database. Here is the connection string:

This is how I am trying to connect:
cnn.Open()
myCMD.CommandTimeout = 0
dr = myCMD.ExecuteReader
 
I keep getting an error message that I can not be logged on. I know that the credentials are correct because I use them for the web app. Something has to be wrong with my connection string, but what?

Cannot Connect To Database

Nov 30, 2006

I am attempting to connect to a database that has been uploaded to my server from my webpages on the server.  This is the connection string that is currently used:
connectionString="Data Source=.SQLEXPRESS;AttachDbFilename=|DataDirectory|Restaurants.mdf;Integrated Security=True;User Instance=True"
When attempting to connect to the database I receive this error message:
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. (provider: SQL Network Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)
I realize that I cannot make a remote connection using SQL Server 2005 Express Edition, but cannot find the proper connection string for it to connect to the uploaded database.
Accessing the database doesn't require a log on by the user as all the information is public.
The authentication mode in the web.config file is set to "Forms".
 If there is any other information required so that this problem can be solved, please ask for it.
Thank you in advance,
Me

Can Not Connect To Database

Jan 4, 2005

I recently uninstalled SQL Server due to connection issues I started having. I could start the DB and connect/edit tables in Ent Mgr etc, but all the sudden, none of my code could make DB connections.

So, after reinstalling now nothing works. I cannot even connect in Ent. Manager. I went to Administrative Tools->Services to make sure it was running, and SQLSERVER isn't even listed under services. What happened? Is there another step after installing SQL Server I missed to get the service up and going. Do I need to do something in ODBC connections?

I am on Windows XP with SP2.

Cannot Connect To Database Using EM

Apr 25, 2006

Greetings,

A newbie needing some guidance. We have SQL running on our Windows 2003 server. When I connect via the Enterprise manager I have two instances of SQL running.

SRV01ACT7 (Windows NT)
SRV01WEBAPP (Windows NT)

When I click on the ACT instance I get the following error:
A connection could not be established to SRV01/ACT7

Reason: Login Failed for user xxxxadministrator.
Please verify SQL Server is running and check your SQL Server registration properties.

I only get the message when I try to connect to the SRV01ACT. The connection to SRV01WEBAPP works fine.

I checked with SQL server manager and both instances are running and no one has reported any problems connecting to either one of them.

The way it acts, its as if SQL server has lost the ability to authorize a connection via the windows account. As if it has lost its associatoin to the administrator account. So while the instance still runs and is functional, I just can't connect to it and manage it.

I have connected via remote desktop from a WinXP machine and the server console. Both end up with the same error.

Can Someone give me step by step instructions on how to correct this?

Any help please!!!
