Hi there!
My provider does not yet support SQL Server 2005, they are still on SQL Server 2000. I put together a very basic login page, but it is crashing everytime I access it because of this problem, and sadly I am not advanced enough as yet to know how to remedy it! Can you help?
Here is the error page, some of it; - Any ideas gratefully received!
Russ.

I have just installed SQL 2005 SP2 (Workgroup Edition)
I am receiving the below error when i open a datasource in report manager. The datasource uses ODBC.
The data processing extension used for this report is not available. It has either been uninstalled, or it is not configured correctly.
Also, when I go to create a new datasource only "Microsoft SQL Server" is available for connection types.
How do i resolve?

I am launching a package the following way:
DTEXEC.EXE /SQL "ProcessReportingDatabase" /SERVER RTG23SQLDB01 /REPORTING V /SET "Package.Variables[User::RunID].Value";35 /SET "Package.Connections[RSAnalytics].Properties[InitialCatalog]";"Fnd Prj 1 Dec29" /SET "Package.Connections[RSAnalytics].Properties[ServerName]";"RTG23SQLDB01UAT1PROD"
The problem does not happen with the [User::RunID] variable or the [Initial Catalog] property of my [RSAnalytics] connection object. But I am not successful in setting the [ServerName] property.
What happens when executed is that the package retains the ServerName property of the deployed package (Value="RTG23SQLDB01UAT1QA"), instead of what I pass in via DTEXEC???
Is ServerName read-only or something? I've tried configuring the package connection to RTG23SQLDB01UAT1PROD and creating a package configuration that I specify in place of the /SET - but to no avail as well!
This package has to work against 10 instances. I really don't want to have to create a separate package for each instance, and then a hack to figure out which one to call.
TIA - Dave

Hello,
I am developing a smart device application with Visual Studio .Net 2005 and SQL Server Compact Edition database. And also using merge replication to synchronize the data from the mobile device to the SQL Server.
My database size is around 350MB. So when I am trying to synchronize this is the error message that I get.
" The database file is larger than the configured maximum database size. The setting takes effect on the first concurrent database connection only.[Required Max Database size ( in MB; 0 if unknown)=129].
I tried changing the Max database size in the connection string and my connection string looks as follows and still did not have any luck.
connstr= "Data Source=Storage CardItems.sdf;Max Database Size=500;"
Any help regarding this would be appreciated.
Thank you
.

Good evening all,
I am new to Microsoft SQL and have been dumped right into the deep end with an anchor around my ankles.
The problem I am experiencing is about 6 months back a guy setup a Microsoft SQL server at my client. He then took his bags and left. Then a developer developed an application which uses a database on this sql server. Everything worked well for around 4 months.
Yesterday IBM Director notified me that I am running dangerously low on disk space on the server. By the time I came in to work this morning I had 12mb free disk space. The evil thing here is the transaction log for the downtime database. It has grown to over 60gb, all because the correct measures were not implemented to prevent this.
The problem that is occuring is no one can do anything on the database now due to the lack of free space. I have tried reading the sql books online but due to my lack of sql experience and knowledge I am stuck.
Can someone please help me? What I would like to do is pull my transaction log down to an acceptable size.
I was thinking of creating a new database and then importing all the data from the current database and then just deleting the current database however am slightly concerned that this may result in some data being lost.
Thanks in advance,
Richard

I'm using the import/export wizard and are trying to connect to another systems database Views and getting the following error
Cannot get the supported data types from the database connection “Dsn = TMS Live:Driver ={JADE ODBC Driver 6.1}
Additional information:
Unknown SQL type – 128.(system.Data)
I think the problem is that the system i'm trying to connect to is an object based system rather than relational based, hence having to import the views rather than tables
I am able to connect using the same DSN/driver in DTS SQL2000 which we currently use, but want to be able to move to 2005.
Any ideas on how i can connect?
Cheers

Need to confirm if we can add space(increase data file size) for the database which is configured for always on similar to that of mirroring or we need to follow any different procedure.
I have a requirement wherein the datafiles on both the primary and secondary replica got full, if i add space to the primary database will it automatically get added to the secondary replica or not?

I need to connect to mirrored SQL servers (Developer Edition) using OLE DB, I tried both OLE DB and ODBC, but it doesn't work
I used connection ODBC string:
Driver={SQL Native Client};Server=10.0.1.161;Failover Partner=10.0.1.162;Uid=test;Pwd=test;Database=TestDB
if server 161 is principal and server 162 mirror, it connects ok, but
when I exchange server roles, connect fails (the error message is:
Cannot open database "TestDB" requested by the login. The login failed.
in LOGIN)
the connect string using OLE DB is:
Provider=SQLOLEDB.1;Persist Security Info=False;User
ID=test;Password=test;Failover Partner=10.0.1.162;Initial
Catalog=TestDB;Data Source=10.0.1.161;Use Procedure for Prepare=1;Auto
Translate=True;Packet Size=4096;Use Encryption for Data=False;Tag with
column collation when possible=False
error message is the same
when I try to connect using VS 2005 using connection string
Database=TestDB;User Id=test;Password=test;Server=10.0.1.161;Failover
Partner=10.0.1.162, it works OK
i have installed SQL server 2005 (on local - client machine) with SQL Native Client and also
SQL Server service pack 1
Is there any way how to connect from OLE DB?
Thanks
