Hello everybody,
I got a problem in my development phase. I'm developing a web-application system that running merge database technology which is centralized database and distributed database. This is because my customer want a highly optimum system standby.
My centralized database running SQL Server 2005 Standard Edition and the distributed database running SQL Server 2005 Express Edition (because it is free). Each of these database, the users can change the data on its database. So, every database must have the same data. from my understanding, each server must act as Publisher and Subscriber. Can SQL Server 2005 Express Edition be a Publisher?
If not, what the solution you all may suggest, because cost is the first factor. If my architecture is not correct, so what you all suggest to me to resolve the problem.
Thanks so much. Any suggestion and opinion is highly appreciate and I'm highly thanks to you all.
Wondering if anyone has any experience with SQL Server Express Edition (SSEXP). We're looking at a mobile sales force type model, so a local database on a laptop with no real time network connection. So the users would collect data locally, then connect up to the network every few days to replicate the data to a central server.
So questions.. Has anyone tried anything similar? How stable/mature is SSEXP? Any other thoughts, alternatives or gotchas anyone can think of?
Thanks for the input.
Hi,
I am looking to using the express edition toolkit for its BI tools but noticed the that it doesn't support a Database engine.
If I am running SQL Express edition, & install the Express toolkit, will this remove the Database engine functionality of the Express edition? Will there be conflicts? Will they run as separate GUI's or is the toolkit added to the Express edition GUI?
Thank you very much for any suggestions anybody might have on this
Hello..
I've installed Visual Basic 2005 express edition & tried to connect to SQL Server 2005 express edition. I noticed that VB2005 Express Edition doesn't have any OLEDB provider for SQL Server. The only OLEDB Provider is for M.Access. Is this correct? if so, what should i do if i want to connect SQL Server 2005 express edition with VB2005 express edition by using OLEDB connection type?
I really appreciate any respond from you guys.. Thank's and waiting for the good news..
Best regards,

Wrote before but did not go any answer , try again.
I have two question about SQL compact edition (SQLCE) (.sdf) and SQL Express edition (SQLED) (.mdf).
I have been testing SQLED and have many tables and data in it.
I want know to test SQLCD and hopefully be able to communicate with the SQLED.
For this reason I was wondering the following:
1. IIs it possible to move all the tables and it constratints into the SQLCE from the SQED ?
2. Another possibility I was thinking about was to use some tables in the SQLED in the SQLCE and move data between these two databases through RDA .
However, does this two versions aloud this kind of communciation...between them....?
Thanks in forehand,

I have uninstalled the SQL Server Express Edition that I have installed from the CDs that were given to me during a Chicago Conference when READY TO LAUNCH Visual Studio 2005, SQL SERVER 2005, and Biz Talk 2005.
Then I went to microsoft website: http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/sql/register/default.aspx and downloaded and installed the so called Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition and I got the messages Error that you read below. Then I Uninstalled Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition and went again to msdn website and downloaded Microsoft SQL Server 2005 Express Edition Advanced Services SP1 and installed it. I got again the same message as below.
MESSAGE:
1. First comes a window with the title: €œsetup.exe €“ Unable to Locate Component€?
And it displays a message:
This application has failed to start because MSTDCPRX.dll was not found.
Re-installing the application may fix this problem.
2. After I click the OK button of this window it comes another window with the title: €œMicrosoft SQL Server 2005 Server Setup€?
And it displays a message: Failed to load SqlSpars.dll
Does anybody can tell what is going on with the 3 times I tried to installed different SQL Server 2005 Express Edition and I get the same message?????
Thanks for your help and support when you have time to respond.

Hello,
I am trying to "import" a .dbf into SQL Server Compact Edition, but I cannot find a way to do so. Can someone tell me how this is done?
Hi, all
I installed SQL 2005 express edition in my pc (Pro XP), then I can login from SQL 2005 Managerment Studio Express. After a few days later, I can't do it and an error message as belows:
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) (Microsoft SQL Server, Error: -1)
It seems that the default setting does not allow remote connections, however, I connected it before and havn't change any setting. I try to reinstall the studio express but still not working.
Any idea / solution will be welcome.

Looking for help in diagnosing this error:
Unable to open the physical file "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDatacartracker.mdf". Operating system error 32: "32(error not found)".
An attempt to attach an auto-named database for file C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLDatacartracker.mdf failed. A database with the same name exists, or specified file cannot be opened, or it is located on UNC share.
I am using Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition along with SQL Server 2005 Express Edition.
Now here's what I did:
Rather than use the Database Explorer within VB2005 EE to create my database, I thought I would try creating my database externally using the downloadable "SQL Server Management Studio Express" tool. (I figured that if I had a stable data model for my database, I could side-step the copying/overwriting issues that come with creating a database as part of a VB solution.)
So having gotten my database setup and populated with some sample data, I am now trying to connect to it from Visual Basic. In VB (in the context of working on a VB Solution), I do the following:
Select Add New Data Source... from the Data menu to bring up the Data Source Configuration Wizard.
Choose "Database" for the data source type and click Next.
Click "New Connection..." to bring up the Add Connection dialogue.
For data source I choose "Microsoft SQL Server Database File", with ".NET Framework Data Provider..." as the data provider.
Navigate to my existing database file (in "C:Program FilesMicrosoft SQL ServerMSSQL.1MSSQLData" folder).
Use Windows Authentication.
When I click "Test Connection" or just click "OK", i get the Microsoft Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition error shown at the top of this message.
Is this occuring because I'm trying to access my database as an .MDF file rather than through Named Pipes / Shared Memory / TCP/IP? If this is the case, is there any way that I can tell VB2005 EE to use Named Pipes / Shared Memory / TCP/IP? Is this a fundamental limitation of VB2005 EE?
Thanks in advance to the guru who is able to explain this to me...

We are trying to install the Standard Edition of SQL Server 2005. We already have SQL Express installed. Standard won't install and Express won't uninstall.
We have tried every suggestion we can find and some we made up. When we try to install Standard, we get to the bit where you choose what you want to install and the only thing available is workstation components.
There are so many cases of this on the Internat that I can't believe MS have not solved the issue. And I am stunned that they want to charge us more money to talk to us about how to fix something we just paid them an arm and a leg for!
What do I need to tell you to get some idea of where to go next with this?
Hi,
I have a VB.net app that access a SQL Express database. I have transactional repliaction set up on a SQL 2000 database (the publisher) and a pull subscription from the VB.net app. I use RMO in the VB app to connect to the publisher. My problem is I am getting some strange behaviour as follows
- if I run the app and invoke the pull subscription it works fine. If I then close my app and go back in, I can access my data without any problem
- If I run the app and try to access data in my SQL Express database it works fine. I can then close the app, reopen it and run the pull subscription it works fine
however.......
- if I run the app, invoke the pull subscription (which runs fine), and then try to access data in my local SQL Express database without firstly closing and reopening the app, I get a login error
- if I run the app, try to access data in my local SQL Express database (which works fine), and then try to run the pull subscription I get a "the process cannot acces the file as it is being used by another process" error. In this case I need to restart the SQL Express service to be able to run replication again.
I get exactly the same behaviour when I use the Windows Sync tool (with my app open at the same time) instead of my RMO code to replicate the data.
I am using standard ADO.Net 2 code to access my SQL Express data in the app and closing all connections etc
Any advice appreciated !
Thanks

I recently purchased a copy of Visual Studio 2005 Professional last month and it came with SQL Server Developer Edition. However, I noticed it also installs the express edition. If I choose not to install the Developer Edition (Im quite new to SQL) can I deploy a database I develop in the express edition on a regular SQL server?
Regards and thanks,
Matt
I have:
A server computer running SQL Server 2005 Enterprise Edition.
A industrial computer running SQL Server 2005 Express Edition.
And now also a Psion WorkAboutPro with CE 5 that should run SQL Server Compact Edition.
The industrial computer syncs its data with the server, basically saying "this has happened".
Now I want the Psion to sync with the industrial computer, but this sync must two-way.
I have tried to find a guide or something that can tell me "do this to sync" but the information i have found is sketchy at best.
If someone could point me in the right direction of a guide or something else it would be much appreciated.

Hi,
I have developed a database in SQL Server. I have Developer Edition. We have our website hosted on a web server that supports SQL Server. I would like to put part of the database on the internet. My questions are:
-I would need to use replication and have been having trouble setting this up in SQL Server...is it possible to use replication in Developer Edition?
-I currently have 1 registered SQL Server which uses the system account and when I try to set up the Publisher etc for replication, I get an error, I cannot use the SQL Server because it is registered using the system account. I have tried to add another SQL Server, using a login 'This Account' and have been unable to do so. Is this another limitation of Developer Edition (only 1 registered SQL Server) or something I'm doing wrong. When I do try to set up the 2nd SQL Server, I get an error that it cannot connect because it doesn't exist.
Thanks for any help or pointers to more information that may help me!

Hi All ...
I have been following the MS on-line tutorials to get replication setup between SQL Server 2005 and SQL Server Compact Edition. I get to the point where I run the Configure Web Synchronization and it is running through the process where it is doing the automated configuration of the shared directory - assigning users etc.
I have attempted this step with a user account that I expressly created for snapshots and with the Administrator account and get the following error message:
* The operation completed successfully. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070000)
At first, I thought this was a rights issue due to the fact that I was using an account that I manually created. However, by using the Administrator account (test only until I can figure this out) that should have removed any rights issues associated with accessing the shared directory where the snapshot will reside.
Any help in getting this figured out will be greatly appreciated.

We currently want to move towards partitioning tables on a master server which is running SQL 2005 Enterprise Edition. However, we have transactional replication as well as log-shipping set-up against that server. The log-ship destination is also running Enterprise Edition, but the subscription server(s) are all Standard Edition only. Will there be any problems or special steps required in creating data partitions on some of these replicated tables if we don't upgrade our license?
View 1 Replies View RelatedAlthough clearly specified in the replication notes for SQL server 2005. I am wondering whether I still have some options for replication using the Standard Edition of SQL 2005. I see that subscriptions and publications are still a part of the menu. Am I still able to set up an oracle 8< database as a publisher which SQL can subscribe to???
My experience so far...I can access Local Subscriptions from the replications menu. There I can attempt to find a publisher, an oracle publisher is given as an option. The message I get is as follows:
"To find an Oracle Publisher, you must first connect to the SQL Server Distributor that has been configured to work with that Publisher. In the following dialog box, specify the name and login for the Distributor."
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Hello @all,
does anyone know whether a SQL Server 2005 Everywhere database can be replicated with a common MS Access database? Is there any possibility to synch a database on a mobile device (SQL Everywhere) with a central database on a server computer (like MS Access or SQL Express) without having to use a full version of SQL Server? Replication is just needed for merging a small database (4-5 tables) so I think the full version of SQL Server is a little bit oversized for this issue (and too expensive, too).
Thank you very much in advance,
Tim
Hello,
I have been unable to create a replication from an SQL Server 2005 standard edition database to remote SQL Server 2005 Express Edition. The remote express edition is on a Virtual Private Server we are leasing from a hosting company. The name of the remote DB is similar to vs572.si-vs572.com. I can connect to this with SQL server authentication through Management Studio and also with SSIS. But, I have been unable to create a push subscription (I have tried a test push subscription with the same publication to a local SQL Express server here in our office and this works fine).
Here is the error message: SQL Server Replication requires the actual server name to make a connection to the server. Connections through server alias, IP address, or any other alternate name are not supported. Specify the actual server name, 'VS572SQLEXPRESS'.
The hosting company had originally installed a shared SQL server which would not support replication. They then installed SQL Express edition and I was hoping this would allow us to run a replication.
I tried to connect to VS572SQLEXPRESS with out any luck. I check the remote connections, made sure replication was installed, etc., but no luck.
Any help would be greatly appreciated!
Thank you,
Albert
Hi
I am trying to complete sql server compact edition book online walkthrough "Creating a Mobile Application with SQL Server Compact Edition". I am successful to complete it as guided using all default settings (e.g. anonymous access, windows authenticaion etc.) and the sample run on both emulator and my pocket pc svc5000. I have following configuration..
Windows 2000 professional sp4
Sql server 2005 standard edition sp1
VS 2005 profesional edition (sp1 not installed)
Sql server compact edition
Sql server compact edition server tools
But the problem is that in production environment i will not be able to connect to the sql server using named instance (e.g machine_nameinstance_name). i have to use ip address in that situation. so i tried to modify the sample to use ip address in place of named instance and then the problem starts.. I have configued my sql server to allow remote connections using tcp/ip and named pipes using sql surface area config tool.
When using named instance i used following code to Synchronize with sqlserver 2005 with and it worked perfectly :
Dim filename As New String("Program FilesTestTest.sdf")
Dim repl As New SqlCeReplication()
repl.InternetUrl = http://machine_name/Test/sqlcesa30.dll
repl.Publisher = "machine_nameinstance_name"
repl.PublisherDatabase = "Test"
repl.PublisherSecurityMode = SecurityType.NTAuthentication
repl.Publication = "Test"
repl.Subscriber = "Test"
repl.SubscriberConnectionString = "Data Source='" + filename + "';Password='';Max Database Size='128';Default Lock Escalation ='100';"
Try
repl.AddSubscription(AddOption.CreateDatabase)
repl.Synchronize()
Catch err As SqlCeException
MessageBox.Show(err.ToString)
End Try
When i tried to do replication using ip address it shows following error:
System.Data.SqlServerCe.SqlCeException was unhandled
HResult=-2147467259
Message="Failure to connect to SQL Server with provided connection information. SQL Server does not exist, access is denied because the IIS user is not a valid user on the SQL Server, or the password is incorrect."

repl.PublisherNetwork = NetworkType.TcpIpSockets
repl.PublisherAddress = "XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX,XXXX"

I have give rights to iuser_manchine_name in the public access list of publication and on database also.
I don't have any idea on where i am wrong... Please help soon..
