Convert A SQLExpress File Based DB Project To SQLExpress Server DB Project
Jul 1, 2006
Hi All,
I've been struggling with this for hours...
Could someone please advise me on how to convert my current File based SQL Server Express website to a Server based SQL Express one.
Particularly interested in what I need to do in the SQL Express management tool, changes I need to make the projecvt itself and changes needed to get IIS to understand things have been changed.
The database is locally attached to the vb.net project residing in a data directory in the project. I am testing installation on a virtual pc - with no sql express managment or other sql server databases attached.
When I do a vb.net setup project and run this on, there is no problem. However, once having done that, when I want to update the app, I can't just copy in the new database along with exe. I get the error:"sql server does not allow remote connections (provider:sql network interfaces error 26 - error locating server/instance specified).
Is this a problem of the virtual PC? I am testing this because I need to be able to send updates to another local machine without using setup program.
Hi All, How can I add sql server express sp1 or sp2 into a setup project I created for an application. Normally sqlserver express is a prerequisite for my app and in deployment vs only adds sqlexpress not the sqlexpress with sp1 or sp2. I know that I need those to make my application run on vista. Any suggestion??
I've got an SSIS solution file with project deployment model in VS 2013 and would like to deploy that to SSISDB on different environments.All these days I followed the regular way to create a project in SSISDB and deploy it to that. Now want to find out if i can automate this process and so got some questionsÂ
1. Can we automate the process of creating a project on SSISDB based on our SSIS project name? This will be like when we do a deployment it should check if the project exists or not on SSISDB based on our SSIS project name, if the project exists we just deploy the packages in the project and if the project does not exists in SSISDB it will create that project and deploy the packages.
2. Can we also automate the process of creating environments? In traditional way we manually create the environment variables under environment tab of SSISDB, but can we make that also as part of deployment? Like when we are releasing to Dev server we look if that particular Dev variable exists on that server, if it exists we just update the existing stuff and if it does not exists we just create it.
For some reason in a Team Foundation Team Project that has multiple project types (SSRS, SSIS, WebSite, C# Business DLL...), the SSIS project makes itself the startup project to the team project. If I explicitly set another project as the startup project to the team project and then select an SSIS package in the SSIS project in the team project, the SSIS project becomes the startup project automatically.
I want to update value of a custom field for a perticular project in Project Server 2007 using PSI.
I have created 5 enterprise custom fields(A,B,C,D,E) through PWA/Server Settings.
I want to search all Projects on Server. If any project is having value for custom field A then I want to update rest of the custom fields(B,C,D,E) for that perticular project.
I fail to use project professional 2003 to access to the project server 2003 using MSDE 2000 in local area network, following message was shown,
Connection failed:
SQLState: '01000' SQL Server Error 1326 [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBNETLIB]ConnectionOpen (Connect()) Connection failed: SQLState '08001' SQL Server Error: 17 [Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBNETLIB]SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
I have seen these pages with similiar cases but can't help.
The SQL ERRORLOG shows: Error is 3414, Severity 21, State 2 and says: "An error occurred during recovery, preventing the database 'model' (database ID 3) from restarting." Just prior to this, I get a warning: "did not see LP_CKPT_END".
Any thoughts why this might be and how I can fix this?
Hi, I'm rather new here, but I would like to add the question here since this project encompasses a lot of areas of ASP.NET (Visual Studio 2005). My project is about a site which is heavily based on Search Option. So basically, users will just have to fill in the forms, click search and it will search throughout the database. For example... The website is about a property listing. The database (based on SQL Server, can be created right through the Visual Studio 2005) consists of these attributes: ID, Property Name, Property Location, Property Cost. The user may search based on Name, Location and Cost. For the cost, there are two forms to fill: the lowest cost allowed and the highest cost allowed.All these are put on the Master Page (Located on the top). When the button Search is clicked, it will display the records that match the forms filled, in the main page located below the Master Page.If anyone can help me with this, I'll be very grateful. Thank you very much.
I have created an installation application which will install the application with SQL Express and .NET Framework 2.0.
If i install this application in a Fresh system(i.e which is not having SQL Express), it is installing the application with new database instance successfully.
But if i try to install the same in a system which is already having SQL Express, throwing "Object reference exception" because it is not able to create the new database instance.
Hello, I've created a Report Model Project that can be used by Report Builder to generate ad-hoc reports. I'm trying to create a connection string in my Report Server Project that points to the Report Model Project data source view.
All I can do is create a regular datasource, which bypasses the metadata contained in the Data Source View.
Basically I want my Report Server Project and my Report Builder reports to leverage the same metadata. Is this possible? If so how do I get the connection string?
Because of numerous problems trying to get sqlexpress working, I uninstalled it with the intention of reinstalling (via Add or Remove Programs). However, now when I try to reinstall it, I get a message that the I am not making a changes so it won't let me install it.
I do have sql server 2005 developer's edition installed; is that the reason? and does that mean I cannot have both installed on the same machine?
I have been working on some SSIS packages for a while now and today while i was working i was trying to create a new connection and in the process there was an error and it said the BIDS has to be closed and i closed it but later when i open BIDS and try to open my project(.sln) from the file menu to work on the half done package it pops up an error which shows the path to my project location on the first line and next statement on the pop up error box says:
"Make Sure the application for the project type (.dtproj) is installed."
I tried to check some forums in which some suggested to try installing SP1 which i tried but ..i dont know why but the SP1 fails to install (i dont know if its causing problem becoz i already installed SP2 as i had some other problem before for which the cure was to install SP2).
Did anyone here face such a problem before ?
I'd really appreciate if the experts here can tell a cure for this problem.
I have a Visual Studio 2005 solution which contains a Sql Server Integration Services (SSIS) project.
In this solution I have explicitly set a Web application project as startup project, but whenever I edit a DTS package within the SSIS project, VS automatically sets the SSIS project as startup project and the package I edit as startup object.
Needless to say, this may cause some really unwanted incidents when running the solution - thinking that you're about to run the Web application project (that was explicitly set as startup project), but instead, you run the edited package in the SSIS project.
Is there any way to avoid having the SSIS project automatically setting itself as startup project, any workaround here at all? :)
in order to maintain a deployed project into an Integration Services Catalog I'd like to know if it is possible to import it into a new project inside SSDT.
I have a very small project written in VB.Net 2005 using the SQL Server 2005 SSiS DTSx package.
I took a SQL Server 2000 dts package and using the SQL Server 3005 legacy tools migrated it so I could still use the package withing SQL 2005 until I can build one using BI/SSIS.
Anyway,I added the reference Microsoft.SqlServer.ManagedDTS so I could then use the Microsoft.SqlServer.Dts.Runtime so I can execute the commands:
Dim oApp As New Application Dim oPkg As New Package oPkg = oApp.LoadPackage(g_DTSx_Directory & "AOC copy Generic1 CSV to AOC_verify_file_1.dtsx", Nothing) Dim oResults As DTSExecResult oResults = oPkg.Execute
Ok. That works fine. Executes without a hitch. So now I try and create a setup project for this and I use the setup wizard.
During the creation of the setup project I get a message that states: The following files may have dependencies that cannot be determined automatically. Please confirm that all dependencies have been added to the project. C:windowssystem32msxml6.dll
OK. The dll is part of the reference I mentioned above and I have no idea what other dependencies it may have.
How do I find this out?
Has anyone else created a project like this and experenced the same?
I am on a clean build running WinXP Pro with SP2 - VS2005 with SP1 and the SQL Server 2005 tools.
I have visual studio 2005 and sql server 2005 with integration service installed on my machine. Couple of days ago, I installed visual studio 2008 professional. When I go to create SSIS project I dont see it in visual studio 2008. What do I have to do to make it appear in visual studio 2008 so that I can create SSIS projects.
Some thread searches here say conversion (downgrade) of a SqlExpress database to Sql Server 2000 is trivial. I haven't yet figured out an efficient way of doing so beyond using someone's Database Publishing Wizard utility (http://www.codeplex.com/sqlhost) to create a sql 2000 compatible script, replete with schema *and* data, then running that script against the Sql 2000 database (freshly created without any structure). I've done this successfully with smaller databases, but the larger ones really tax and drain the server resources and scripts have failed with "out of memory" errors. We're putting more memory in the Sql 2000 server, which may avert memory errors, but there's still the issue of server load. Has anybody since come up with or know of a better method that's quicker, more efficent and less drain on the server?
Hello, as a ISV we develop a software product called Ultimo (www.ultimo.net). I do have a license question: is it allowed for our customers to run our webbased application on IIS and use sql server express as a database. The employees from the customer will use the application (intranet). For a small number of users sql express may do the job. Untill now we always advice sqlserver with processor license.
I have an application that runs on a PDA and manage a database (.sdf) file I use C# with visual studio 5.0. What I want to do is to add the database file (.sdf) to my project files and open a connection to it. The problem is that all my source file are stored on remote machine and not locally on my machine and the .sdf file is also stored with the project source files. When I try to add the file to the project I get the following error fro the data source configuration wizard :
"An error occured while retrieving the information from the database"
DRIVE_REMOTE Parameter Name : N:
I get the same error also when I try to open a new connection to the file from the server explorer. When i copy the file to drive "C" I can open a connection to it with no errors.
Hi every body. As you can see in the title I would like to import my tables from the data base which is in the SQL Server, to an mdf file which can be attached to the project.Can some one give an indice please?
When I try to convert a report project from 2005, it seems to convert fine but then the project closes because VS2008 doesn't support that project type (.rptproj ?). I see that there is a report project type under VB (and I assume C#) but there is no Business Intelligence project catagory. It's a new machine and I did install SQL Server 2005 before VS2008.
I'm in the process of moving a bunch of projects and websites from another machine and got hung up on this one. Any pointers greatly appreciated.
Do I need to re-create a new package from scratch after doing what I did? It seems I've made what is probably a typical newbie mistake: I used COPY/PASTE to consolidate containers from two packages into a single new project/package.
Now my new package generates multiple duplicate errors (23 of each...) whenever I open it:
Warning loading LoadBillingData.dtsx: Process configuration failed to set the destination at the package path of "PackageData Flow Task to Load Profiles, Versions, and Transactions.EventHandlers[OnError].Variables[System::Propagate].Properties[Namespace]". This occurs when attempting to set the destination property or variable fails. Check the destination property or variable.
Error loading LoadBillingData.dtsx: Changing the name of a variable failed because it is a system variable. System variables are read-only.
What happened:
new guy (goes without saying...) creates:
01. PROJECT A 02. add PACKAGE A to PROJECT A 03. add some containers, figger out what the heck is going on, get containers working 04. create PROJECT B 05. create PACKAGE B 06. add containers, they work fine 07. whoops! Want to consolidate the packages. Unix guy naively expects Bill has made MS Visual Studio like all windows products (of which newbie is aware€¦): 08. create PROJECT C 09. create PACKAGE C 10. <ctrl a> PACKAGE A 11. <crtl c> PACKAGE A 12. <ctrl v> PACKAGE C 13. <ctrl a> PACKAGE B 14. <crtl c> PACKAGE B 15. <ctrl v> PACKAGE C 16. copy Flat File Connection Managers 17. copy Database Connection Manager 18. drag the arrows around, fix the flat file sources, renew the column maps, etc 19. whoops! the connections all look like a registry number! Fix the OLE DB Destinations, Execute SQL Task containers by selecting the DB Connection Manager copied from PROJECT A
20. successfully execute PROJECT C/PACKAGE C 21. save all 22. exit 23. start MS Visual Studio 24. Open Solution 25. ERRORS!!!
I have a report with multiple datasets, the first of which pulls in data based on user entered parameters (sales date range and property use codes). Dataset1 pulls property id's and other sales data from a table (2014_COST) based on the user's parameters. I have set up another table (AUDITS) that I would like to use in dataset6. This table has 3 columns (Property ID's, Sales Price and Sales Date). I would like for dataset6 to pull the Property ID's that are NOT contained in the results from dataset1. In other words, I'd like the results of dataset6 to show me the property id's that are contained in the AUDITS table but which are not being pulled into dataset1. Both tables are in the same database.
I am not sure if this is possible or not, but I have to at least ask.
I have a SQL Reporting Services project that has a QA server version and then a Production server version. So when requested changes are made to the reports, I make the changes in Visual Studio and then push to QA. After the changes have been tested and approved, I then push the changes to the Production server.
I have come across an issue, where requested changes were made in Visual Studio (a lot of changes), and pushed to QA. The users now have changed their minds and they want instead to stay with what is in production. So, I am looking for a way to recover the report file on the production web server, bring it back into my visual studio project to replace the report that I had changed.
Is this possible, or will I have to start over and step one and reverse the changes in Visual Studio.
Hi :) I have a website that uses SqlExpress ...on it i have a database that was working ok ...until i made a few modifications to the database (had a few rows). I have upload the database (only the .mdf file) to the app_data folder ...but now i get this message : One or more files do not match the primary file of the database. If you are attempting to attach a database, retry the operation with the correct files. If this is an existing database, the file may be corrupted and should be restored from a backup.Cannot open database "ArtWork" requested by the login. The login failed.Login failed for user 'NT AUTHORITYNETWORK SERVICE'.Log file 'c:xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxApp_DataArtWork_log.LDF' does not match the primary file. It may be from a different database or the log may have been rebuilt previously. I try to delete the .LDF file but it gives me access denied ...i cheched the permissions for the file and everything is ok How can i solve this?? Thanks and Cheers
