Help With Web Sync Sql 2005 To Sql Express

Subscriber Alternate Snapshot Location And Web Sync - 2005 Express

Hi,

Windows CE 5 Device With SQL Server 2005 Compact Edition Sync With SQL Server 2005 Express Edition

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.

Regards,
Björn

Can I Sync With SQL Server Express?

After reading alot of articles over the past few days, some things have become more clear, while others haven't.

I'm using Visual Studio 2005 .NET, SQL Server Express 2005 SP2, and SQL CE 2005 3.1.. The PC I'm developing on runs Vista, so I enabled IIS in the Control Panel.

I'm developing an application for the desktop PC, which connects to a local instance of SQL Express.. I also have developed basically a small data-capture app for the Pocket PC 2003 .. I have 3 very small tables I would like to keep synced, between the PC and the handheld, when the user docks the handheld into the docking cradle... is this possible with SQL Express? And if so, is IIS absolutely required to exchange data between the database on the PC, and the database on the handheld?


PS.

To explain the table interaction a bit further... say Tables A & B have information that is added/edited using the desktop application.. any time the handheld is cradled, I'd like the user to be able to update the tables A & B on the handheld with any data that has changed...

Meanwhile, the user captures data with the handheld, and these records are stored in table C.. when the handheld is cradled, any new records in the handheld in table C, I would like to have added to table C in the PC as well

Sql Express Web Sync, Can't Find Snapshot?

I'm using RMO to set up MergePullSubscription to a SQL Express database, the server is running SS2k5.

The subscription gets created just fine, and web sync seems to be working, going to replisapi.dll?diag in my new virtual directory returns no errors.

When creating the publication on the server (using management studio for this) the snapshot is created, and stored in the snapshot share. Creating the publication seems to go without any issues. When I open the "Configure Web Synchronization" wizard, and point it to my new snapshot share, it ALWAYS says that the snapshot folder appears to be empty, which it isn't.

I get an error when I attempt to sync the databases that I believe is caused by Web Sync not being able to find the snapshot. Here's the output from triggering the sync via RMO.

I'm using a free cert for testing, hence the non-FQDN name SandBox, but I have added the root CA to my machine, and don't get any cert errors when visiting the ?diag page in my browser.

Any ideas? I've been beating my head against the same wall for 2 days now!

Sync Of Binary Columns In SQL 2005 EV And SQL 2005 EX

Hi.

I'm working on an application that will use SQL Server 2005 Everywhere Edition for single user installations (i.e. notebooks) and SQL Server 2005 Express Edition for network installations. The single user databases will synchronize with the network databases.

The databases will have to store a large number of documents of different kinds, most of them will be less than 200 KB in size. According to the SQL Server 2005 Express Edition documentation, I should avoid using the IMAGE data type and opt for VARBINARY(MAX) instead. The current version CTP of SQL Server 2005 Everywhere Edition does not support VARBINARY(MAX) (the maximum size is 8000 bytes).

Will the final version of SQL Server 2005 Everywhere Edition support VARBINARY(MAX)? Or should I use the IMAGE data type in both schemas or IMAGE in the SQL Server 2005 Everywhere Edition database and VARBINARY(MAX) in the SQL Server 2005 Express Edition database?

Do I have to consider anything special when the databases are synchronized via replication because of the large number of rows with binary fields?

Gerrit

Log Shipping Monitor Our Of Sync SQL Server 2005

I have set up log shipping between two servers with a third serving as a monitoring server. Recently the monitoring for the eight databases that I am log shipping began to indicate that everything was failing. Upon further inventigation of the log_shipping_monitor_history_detail tables on the prinary and secondary everthing appears to working properly but I have been unable to resyncronize the monitoring. I have attempted to use the stored procedure sp_refresh_log_shipping_monitor to no avail, it does not appear to do anything with respect to the data in the dbo.log_shipping_primary_databases and log_shipping_monitor_primary tables on the primary server or the log_shipping_monitor_secondary and dbo.log_shipping_secondary_databases tables on the secondary. I have also manually updated the records in these tables in an attempt to syncronize but after the next sucessful backup, copy and restore this monitoring data is not updating. Does anyone have any ideas as to what I am doing wrong or how I might rectify this situation.

Edited Data Won't Propagate Back To The Database (VB 2005 Express && SQL Server 2005 Express)

Hi,

I'm trying to learn some VB programming with the VB 2005 Express Absolute Beginner Series video tutorials (which I think is great) and have come across a problem that I can't solve.

When I follow the instructions in Lesson 9 (Databinding Data to User Interface Controls) my application will display the data from the database correctly and I can edit it (and as long as the debugger is running the data remains changed). However, the changes won't propagate back to the database. I don't get any error messages but after I edit the data, save (with the save button on the BindingNavigator toolbar), and end debugging the data in my database remains unchanged. When I use a MessageBox to show how many rows where edited/updated in the

Me.myTableTableAdapter.Update(Me.myDatabaseDataSet.myTable)

I get the correct number back. I'm sure the problem is not due to coding errors since I've also tried running the accompanying Lesson 9 project file that can be downloaded from MSDN and the problem persists.

I'm using Windows XP SP2, SQL Server 2005 Express Edition and VB 2005 Express Edition. I've tried installing SQL Server 2005 Express with a number of different settings, including default settings, but it doesn't make any difference.

Would greatly appreciate any feedback on this as I'm keen to resolve this problem so I can get on with the next tutorial lesson.

Thanks,
Ieyasu

System.Data.ConstraintException Visual Basic 2005 Express / SQL 2005 Express

This problem only occurs after deployment, not when debugging. In the table I am having a problem with I have an ID field designated as the primary key with the identity increment set to 1 and the identity seed set to 1. There is no data in the table when deployed.

If I close the application and re-start it, the exception no longer occurrs when I update the dataset. I am including the code to update the tables incase something is wrong there. Any suggestions?

How To Apply SQL Server 2005 Express SP1 To The Version Of SQL Server 2005 Express Which Installs With Visual Studio 2005?

When I installed VS 2005, it installed the default version of SQL Server 2005 Express that ships with Visual Studio 2005 installer media.

How can apply SQL Server 2005 Express SP1 to update this existing instance?

Currently, if I run this query:

SELECT @@version

I get the following:

Microsoft SQL Server 2005 - 9.00.1399.06 (Intel X86) Oct 14 2005 00:33:37 Copyright (c) 1988-2005 Microsoft Corporation Express Edition on Windows NT 5.1 (Build 2600: Service Pack 2)

After applying SP1, I should get 9.00.2047.00.


Should I just go to this link and download & install the SQL Server 2005 Express Edition SP1:

http://msdn.microsoft.com/vstudio/express/sql/download/


Thank you,

Why Can't I Get SQL Express 2005 And VB Studio Express 2005/2008to Work Together?

This is what I have done.

1. Installed VB.NET IDE 2008 and SQL Server Compact 2005. IDE requires upgrade of database to 3.0 version which I allowed it to do. After the database was upgraded, I did an amount of coding work in the IDE and then tried to go back to do more database work in SQL. However the database then could not be opened in SQL Server Compact 2005. An error said that because it had been upgraded, it could not be read. It was requiring me to run 'upgrade.exe'. I had no idea what this meant and could find no upgrade available online.
2. Removed VB.NET IDE 2008 and installed 2005 instead. However, the file extension on the SQL Server Compact database is .sdf, but the IDE is requiring a .mdf extension. I have tried everything I can think of to get it to save or to have the desired extension, but I cannot.

Questions:

1. Do SQL Express 2005 and VB Studio Express 2008 work together?
2. If so, how?

It seems as though application each requires a different version of the database. If the database is usable in one, it is not usable in another.

Thanks for the help.

Can I Attach To My 2005 Express DB Using The 2005 Mgt Studio (NOT EXPRESS) Client?

I have a 2005 Express DB I wish to attach to using the 2005 Mgt Studio Client (Not the express version, but the full blown 2005 Mgt Studio Client from the SQL 2005 Standard Edition Install disk). Can this be done, or can I only use the 2005 Mgt Studio Express Edition Client?

SQL Express 2005 Remote Connection With VWD 2005 Express

Hi all,Just wondering if SQL 2005 express edition can be connected remotely. I've set up SQL 2005 Express on a separate machine and am having trouble connecting to it from VWD when creating the websites. Currently I've set up ASP.NET 2.0 Framework on the remote machine with IIS6 using Windows Server 2003 Web Edition. And I am directly editing the website remotely on the server machine from my PC. Could someone please help me in setting up a remote connection from VWD to the SQL Server?I've enabled TCP/IP setting in the SQL Configuration Manager but still getting errors. Could this be an issue with Express Edition? Because if it is I also have a copy of SQL Server 2005 to install. Any direction to resolve in this issue would be greatly appreciated.PS. I'm new to this so pls bear with me. Thanks.

SQL Server Express 2005 Edition SP2 And Vb Express 2005

This is a question about the movie collection starter So here it is:

I am running Vista RC1 (Build 5600) and vb express 2005

I downloaded and install SQL Server Express 2005 Edition SP2 - Since SQL Server Express 2005 Edition SP1 does not work with Vista

But when I try to run the collection app or if I try to download and install the Amazon version I get the following error message:

There was a problem loading data: An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be cause 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 need any advice you can give me to solve this problem, how to change the default settings, because I do not know where to start.

Thanks

Visual Basic .NET 2005 Express && Sql Server 2005 Express Remote Server

Hi,
 I want to make a component library in Visual Basic.NET and connect to a remote Sql Server. When I create a new DataSet with the wizard, I can only connect to a .mdf file, but not to a Sql Server. With Visual Web Developer I can connect to a Sql server. What is the difference between these enviroments ? How can I do the same with Visual Basic.NET ?
 Thanks in advance.

Getting Up And Running With Visual SQL Server 2005 Express And Visual Web Developer 2005 Express

I've downloaded and installed both of these (VWD installs both) and have been trying to run through the walkthrough of setting up a web application which supports membership. However, no matter what I do I invariably get errors like the following:


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)
I'm concerned why VWD and VSQL express versions don't run correctly out of the box (so to speak). I'm not an expert on configuring these services -- but that's the point of offering these tools to hobbyists: So we can learn about how to make some of these great applications using MS tools.
My configuration::


Windows XP SP2 -- clean machine as of about a month ago, never had any dev tools, web servers, or the like on it.

IIS is installed and the service says its running

VSQL and VWD express versions installed (no errors on installation)

SQL server service indicates it is running

.Net 2.0 framework installed (no errors on installation)

Note: I've tried installing on two separate machines. Obviously I'm missing something fundamental.

Would someone please help me go through the million things I [apparently] need to do to configure all these tools so I can get on to actually coding up my first web application? If this is documented somewhere, all I can say is I tried to find it but it certainly wasn't obvious.

Sql Server 2005 Express Edition VS Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition

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,

How To Configure SQL Server Management Studio Express To Allow Doing Non-User-Instance/ADO.NET 2.0 From VB 2005 Express?

Hi all,

For the first time, I want to set up the configuration of my SQL Server Management Studio Express (SSMSE) to allow me in doing the non-User-Instance/ADO.NET 2.0 programming from my VB 2005 Express. The SSMSE and VB 2005 Express are in my Windows XP Pro PC that is part of our NT 4 LAN System in our office. I read the article "How to configure SQL Server 2005 to allow remotre connections" in http://support.microsoft.com/kb/914277/ about (i) "Enable remote connections for SQL Server 2005 Express", (ii) Enable the SQL Server Browser service", (iii) Create exception in Windows Firewall, and (iv) Create an exception for the SQL Server Browser service in Windows Firewall. I entered the SQL Server Surface Area Configuration and I could not decide what options I should take for doing the non-User-Instance/ADO.NET 2.0 programming from my VB 2005 Express. I have the following questions on the page of "Minimize SQL Server 2005 Surface Area":
(1) I saw "Configure Surface Area for localhost [change computer]". I clicked on [change computer] and I saw the
following: Select Computer
The Surface Area Configuration of this surface area of this computer or a remote computer.
Specify a computer to configure: O Local computer
O Remote computer
Should I choose the "Local computer" or the "Remote computer" option?
(2) Below the "Configure Surface Area for localhost [change computer]",
I clicked on "Surface Area Configuration for Service and Connections", Select a component and then configure its services and connections: |-| SQLEXPRESS
|-| Database Engine
Service
I picked => Remote Connection
On the right-hand side, there are: O Local connections only
O Local and remorte connections
O Using TCP/IP
O Using named pipes only
O Using both TCP/IP and named pipes
Should I choose O Local and remorte connections and O Using named pipes only?

Please help and tell me what options I should choose in (1) and (2).

Thanks in advance,

I Can No Longer Connect To My SQL Server Express 2005 From Manager Studio Express

Everything was working fine. I have been able to connect using windows authentication. Then, I went into the ODBC manager to add a data source and it failed to connect so I went back into the Server management studio to modify users. After doing this I now get an error when I try to conenct the management studio to the SQL server.

I wasn't modifying the login for my windows account that I normally use, I was modifying a different one, however I now get the message "An error has occured while establishing a connection to the SQL server. This kind of problem can ocure because the default behavior of the server does not support all connection methods" blah blah.

Does anyone know how I can attach to the server? Or, do I need to somehow remove the server and create a new one? How would I do that?

Thanks in advance for any input.

Error Creating First SQL Express Database Via VWD 2005 Express: User Does Not Have Permission To Perform This Action

I get an error dialog when I try to create a new SQL database, both via the Add New Item dialog and the property wizard of a new SqlDataSource control. The error is:


Local Database File:

User does not have permission to perform this action.

I've searched for help with this.

I ensured the App_Data folder exists and I added the local ASP.NET account to the group that have R/W access to it (although the RO flag is in an unchangeable tri-state on the folder).
The SQL Server Express error log is clean and indicates full functionality.
Everything is running locally.
No VWD installation errors.

Any ideas?

Thank you!

Full-Text Search Problem When I Upgrade From SQL 2005 Express To Express Advanced Services

Hi. I'm trying to get full-text search working on my SQL 2005 Express with Advanced Services and am having problems. I thought that I installed it correctly, and when I look in the services running, I see it SQL Server Fulltext Search(MSSQLSERVER). Also note that I have SQL Server 2005 Standard installed on this same laptop. I don't know if that Full text Search applies to the Standard, Express or both.

What I do see is that if I connect to the database engine named <mylaptop>, I can see the version is 9.0.1399 and I can see the check box to enable full-text indexing in a particular databases properties. When I run SELECT FULLTEXTSERVICEPROPERTY('IsFullTextInstalled'), I get a 1.

However, when I connect to the engine name <mylaptop>SQLExpress, I se the version is 9.0.3042, and I don't see the same check-box to enable full-text indexing. When I run SELECT FULLTEXTSERVICEPROPERTY('IsFullTextInstalled'), I get a 0.

I've never tried this before so I know I'm probably missing something basic. But, I have searched quite a bit and not found my answer. So, I'm looking to you for help.

Thanks in advance.

John.
