Cant Get Access Database Synchronizer Set Up On Client Machine
Apr 17, 2007
I have created a PPC application that uses ADS to synchronize my sqlce db with a desktop MS Access database. It works fine on my computers, but my client cant get it to work on his. Here is the situation.
His "Computer Name" as it's stated in his 'My Computer' properties is "PAVSGP024FE.NWFSC.NOAA.GOV"
However his Access.MDW File is located in the directory "C:Documents and SettingsJoe NobodyApplication DataMicrosoftAccessSystem.MDW".
There is no directory called "C:Documents and SettingsPAVSGP024FE.NWFSC.NOAA.GOVApplication DataMicrosoftAccessSystem.MDW".
He has tried adding port 1024 as an exception for his firewall settings, has installed Access Database Synchronizer on his computer, and I have also tried using the "long" computer name as the url setting in the config file. (i.e. <URL>http://PAVSGP024FE.NWFSC.NOAA.GOV:1024/</URL> but this throws the error
"The HTTP request failed due to incorrect format or content. Try restarting the IIS server.[]"
I dont know what else to try! Anybody have any suggestions?

What do I have to do with the files installed? I am fairly new to this so can someone please help me. Isnt there supose to be an option in the start menu to run the wizard, i don't seem to be getting this?
I have installed ADS on a wm5 device, and my desktop computer is running XP. When I try to connect to the Access Database (via ADS) with my network cable in, it works fine But as soon as my network cable is unplugged, an error comes up €œError connecting to Access Database€? Can somebody please give me some suggestions on how to fix this problem I want to be able to sync my sdf database to my mdb database (via ads) without my network cable being plugged in
Hi, I downloaded and install ADS. I cannot find the synchronization wizard in the start menu as indcated in the Readme.doc. file that come with the .msi file. I also need help to install the synchronizer onto the mobile device (windows mobile 5). The readme file seems to imply there is another setup file after te .msi file was executed. ("After you run the AccessDatabaseSynchronizer-EN.msi file, the setup files are installed at <installation drive:>Program FilesMicrosoft SQL Server Compact Editionv3.1SyncAccess.") I can't find the setup file. Am I missing something? Please help.
We have upgraded sql server 2000 to sqlserver 2005 on the development server.
To access the database server, we installed the sql server management studio on the client PC with Admin Account. The .Net framework and sqlserver management studio were installed and I am able to access the database from the client PC using Admin Login. Then we logged off and tried to login as user account on the client PC. From the user account login we are unable to open the sql server management studio. The error is as follows €œThe proper type library could not be found in system registry€?
The client PC configuration : windows 2000 Professional ( sp4)
After downloading and installing this tool, I'm confused. The documentation refers to a wizard, which I can't find in the Start menu.
Development team: Where is this wizard? This is a great idea that I'm certain many people can benefit from--- please make some better documentation, and give us a product that does what the documentation says.
If I use GetDate() function from client machine (using "\ServerMachineSQLExpress" instance from client machine "ClientMachine"), then from where I will get the DateTime value ?
According to my technical support for web hosting, for database format they only use "MS SQL" operating on a windows system, usualy clients create they're sites on their local machines using "MS SQL".
I'm just wondering.....
Is 'MS SQL' free? where can I get it?
I also have the option of creating the site round an access databse but I'm worried about the security issues,
do you think it would be wise to use access?
Is it easy to convert a site written in ASP.NET&ACCESS into a site using ASP.NET&"ms sql"?
because then I could code a site in the former on my machine and then change the code to link to an sql server.
I am writing a Windows Application which will be used by about 100 clients. (NT Authenticated)
The application is going to be used in a LAN enviroment. User who have access will download a VB.NET application from a web site.
Of course, I want to prevent any of the 100 users from using a tool such as Query Analysis or ODBC to connect directly to the database and modify data.
So, it appears the way to go is to the "Application Roles". For this to work, the application roll password has to be saved in the application to execute the sp_setapprole procedure.
Is there a way to secure this password? I am worried about a user somehow extracting the password from the application and connecting directly.
Am I on the right track here? Any ideas appreciated!
We are using Crystal Report Services XI to generate reports from SQL Server 2000 database running on server within the same domain (LAN).
for some reason, SQL Server is rejecting the Credentials that is provided to CR Services, the user has right to that database. When We run the report manual, it works fine, but when we run Automatic on schedule , it fails.
The Authentication mode is set to Mixed.
The Startup Service accoutn is set to "This Account"
Any idea, why would this failure on User is encoutered.

I am new to sql and am looking at running random backups of an sql database. Regular backups are running nightly using maintenance jobs in enterprise manager. These random backups would be started at a point in time just before a specific procedure was run. There will be a user assigned the task of running these backups who has no privilege to log onto the sql server machine (nor will he ever get this privilege). I would be interested to know if there is a way to script this so that this user could simply start a backup from his workstation. The backup could be a repeat of the scheduled nightly backup storing to the same place or a new backup. The db in question is only 150 +/- MB so time involved in completing this job is minimal (the scheduled backup of this db completes in under a minute).
System is SQL 2000 sp4 on a Win 2003 server with XPpro sp2 clients.
Thanks for any tips, hints or detailed descriptions.

When I run debug on my code that is in my laptop, it access my xp server box with sqlexpress running and I see all my data in my application. My question is..When I compile this program and install it on a client machine that has no sqlexpress tools, no SQLCMD etc....will the application run and access the xp server box, or do I have to install something on the client machine.
When you connect to SQL Server using SQLConnection, how to set client machine name(or IP address) so that you can monitor the process on Server side using Enterprise Manager?

hi i am new to mssql db stuff. I just developed my first VB.NET application and it uses a mssql database which is hosted locally on my development machine. I built the deployment msi file for my application which can be installed easily on client machine, but have no idea how to move the mssql db with it.
I am working on SQL-Server 2000 (developer edition) with SP3 on Win 2000 and Clients are Win98/Win XP.
I am not able to 'Step Into' my SQL Procedure code in Debug mode, executed from Query Analyzer from a client machine. As soon as I select the 'Execute' button after inserting all the parameters value, the whole procedure gets executed. But I'm able to do the same (i.e 'step into') from the Server itself.
Do I need any additional configuration settings in the client machine ??
I shall be greatful if anyone can help me to solve the above problem.
I have created a DTS package that pulls data in from Oracle into SQLServer. When I run it directly on the server (from EnterpriseManager), it works fine. When I run it from Enterprise Manager on aclient machine that does not have the Oracle client software, it doesnot run, giving me the error: "The Oracle client and networkingcomponents were not found...". I was hoping I wouldn't need to havethe client software installed on a machine other than the server whereSql Server is running. The problem here is that there are a number ofmachines from where I would like to execute this DTS package that I donot want to install/configure the Oracle client software. I don'tquite understand why the configuration of the client is importanthere. In my mind, when I am using enterprise manager from a clientmachine, I am using it sort of like a terminal services client toconnect to the server. I guess there is a lot more happening in thebackground.Thanks for any feedback,Marcus
One of my co-worker changed the sa password today. After that we are getting this error. The SA account gets locked every time. Even within few seconds of unlocking the SA account, it gets locked again. Error message is not clear as what session still using old password and causing the SA account to get locked? Any of our application does not use SA user to connect to databases. We have Tivoli installed on the same system and the GUI of tivoli has the correct password.
I want to write simple sql database project that that works in the network. and i need to insert record from a client to a server that is on the other machine.
