How Do I Measure Bandwith Usage For Merge Replication SQL 2005 To Sql Server Mobile 2005?

Jan 24, 2007

Hi,

Is there any way to measure bandwith usage during merge replication between sql server 2005 and sql server mobile 2005 running on a cradled wm5 mobile device.

Attaching the windows performance monitor to the network connection established over usb would work although I was wondering if there was something specific for this case integrated into Sql server 2005 / sql server mobile 2005 / Sql server management studio / third party tools that i could use ?

thnx,

pdns.

SQL Server Mobile 2005 Merge Replication Problem On Windows Mobile 5.0

Aug 8, 2006



Dear ppl,

I am writing an application for a device (MDA Pro T-Mobile) having Windows Mobile 5.0 using

-MS .NET Compact Framework 2.0 SP-1
-SQL Mobile 2005.
-VS 2005 .NET

The application uses Merge Replication. The error occurs in the Synchronise() Method of the SqlCeReplication object.

"SQL Server Mobile encountered problems when opening the database."

repl.AddSubscription(AddOption.CreateDatabase);
repl.Synchronize();

I don't understand why I am having this error. It does create the database on AddSubscription() method but it is failing opening the database on Synchronise(). I have also tried uninstalling and then reinstalling all the SQL Mobile components in the following order.

-sqlce30.wce5.armv4i.cab
-sqlce30.repl.wce5.armv4i.cab
-sqlce30.dev.ENU.wce5.armv4i.cab

However, when i run this application on a device(Dell X50 AXIM) with Pocket PC 2003, it runs fine creating the database and sysnchronising it.

The target platform for the project is Windows Mobile 5.0 Pocket PC SDK.

Does any one have any clue what could be the problem ?

Regards
Nabeel

Help Needed In Merge Replication, SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition And VC# 2005

Apr 10, 2008

I have written following code in my application

I just want to display all the data of a Single table into a Data Grid, I know that we can drag and drop the table on to a form and datagrid is generated, but here I want to retrive those values through my code, how should i do that

I am getting following errors while running the program
Error 1) Error No. 28037, MS SQL Server 2005 Evrywhere Edition
Error: A request to send data to the computer running IIS has failed. For more information see HRESULT

Error: The specified table does not exist [ JobLists ].

Can anybody please tell me, where I went wrong ??? In this code anywhere else????

Note: While adding a Data Source of SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition, I have added that .sdf file into my project, thats why I have written the Data Source as : .DbFile.sdf

Merge Replication Between SQL Server 2005 And SQL Mobile

Oct 18, 2007

Hi,

I'm currently investigating the feasibility of having SQL Mobile on a number of devices running Windows CE. These devices will have to synchronize with the server (either using merge replication or RDA) over GPRS. The problem I have is that some of these devices will never be online. Is there are a way of synching these offline devices? The model I had in mind was using a USB key (or some other storage device) to download the latest updates from an online device and transferring this data to the offline device, and vice versa e.g. from offline to online and then merging. Is this feasible?

Thanks

Merge Replication 32-bit IIS - 64-bit SQL Server 2005 -Windows Mobile 5 Device

Nov 15, 2006

We have setup a 32-bit IIS server on a 32-bit machine. Installed necessary SQL Server components (32-bit replication components). We have installed SQL Server 2005 64-bit SP1 with latest hotfixes on a 64-bit machine.

On the Mobile device we installed SQL Server 2005 Mobile.

When we start mergereplication the problem we have is error 28009 (An instance of the SQL Server Reconciler cannot be created) on the mobile device. I read allot about it, but still have a questetion.

Should this work?

I found the doc: SQL Server 2005 Upgrade Technical Resource Guide:
Note: If your upgrade involves SQL Server CE subscribers, you must perform additional actions on the IIS server. You will need to install SQL Server 2005 client connectivity components along with SQL Server Mobile Edition components on the IIS server. You will also have to replace sqlcesa30.dlll, sqlcerp30.dll, and all the replication components on the IIS server.

From this I conclude it should work or is the doc in error?

If it does not, what can we do?

32-bit SQL Server 2005 on the 64-bit machine should work. (Can a 64-bit SQL Server 2005 run alongside 32-bit SQL Server 2005?).

Beste regards,
Hans Mank

SQL Mobile 2005 Merge Replication With SQL 2005 X64

Jan 10, 2006

I am having trouble with getting Merge Replication up with a new SQL 2005 x64 Server.  I already have it running smoothly with SQL 2005 Mobile and SQL 2000, but I want to migrate the backend to SQL 2005.

There is a front end server running IIS 6.0 on Windows 2003 x86 Standard (Server A) with SSL required and Basic Authentication set as the only authentication method (default Domain and Realm are also set).  The backend server is running SQL 2005 x64 Standard on Windows 2003 x64 Standard (Server B).  The mobile devices are running Windows Mobile 5.0 with SQL 2005 Mobile (Client).

From both a standard Windows XP workstation (IE) and the Client (PIE) I can browse to the HTTPS site on port 444 for the sqlcesa30.dll on Server A and get a response in normal and ?diag modes.  The ?diag gives success in all but the 8.0 Database Reconciler (I didn't install the SQL 2000 replication components on Server A, my understanding is they should not be needed).  Sql Server Module Versions are as follows: sqloledb.dll - 2000.86.1830.0, 9.0 replrec.dll - 2005.90.1399.0, 9.0 replprov.dll - 2005.90.1399.0, 9.0 msgprox.dll - 2005.90.1399.0.

The publication on Server B is enabled for Web Synchronization and the Snapshop Agent has run.  There are no reported errors on that side.

Since I ran into issues getting synchronization to run I have opened up permissions fairly wide in this test environment.  The PAL and the Database both have the user I am attempting to sync with listed (I am using the Administrator account in the test domain).  I have opened full rights on the Snapshot share on Server B to Everyone (both NTFS ACL on the directory and the Share permissions).  The virtual directory on Server A containing the sqlcesa30.dll has also been opened very wide, and the Application Pool does have access to it.

The Client is running a custom C#.NET 2005 application.  With the exception of changes to set the application to sync with the Server A/B duo instead of the production servers, this application is identical to the code currently being used in production with SQL 2000 Standard.

The persistent error that I am getting from the Client being thrown by SQL 2005 Mobile when I attempt to sync is "An instance of the SQL Server Reconciler error object cannot be created.  Try reinstalling the replication components."

SQL 2005 Mobile components on Server A are set to Logging Level 3 but not returning any errors that I can see to troubleshoot with.  All replication components appear to be installed and operational, although I have re-installed them.

Besides the obvious question of how to solve the error listed above, is there an issue with am x85 front end IIS 6.0 server talking to an x64 back end SQL 2005 server for merge replication over HTTPS with Windows Mobile 5.0 clients running SQL 2005 Mobile?

Based on everything I have read off the MSDN Forums, MSDN articles, BOL, log files, and web searches it seems like I should have an operational synching topology, however clearly I have missed something because I have yet to get a successful subscription through to the publication.

Any insight/enlightenment would be greatly appreciated, this seems to be a very narrow and specific area of replication and mobility and information is relatively sparse from my experience so far.

Thanks!

Merge Replication With SQL Mobile 2005

Apr 25, 2006

We are using SQL 2005 (SP1) and mobile agents with SQL Mobile. We are seeing an excessive number of updates after a device's database is reinitialized. My understanding was that if I generate a new snapshot or reinitialize all subscriptions (from the server), the devices would only get what the database looks like right now (inserts only) after syncing and/or reinitializing, but they are actually getting the right number of inserts and a huge number of updates in Replication Monitor. Any ideas?



Thanks!

Mike

SQL 2005 Mobile Merge Replication Size Limits?

Feb 8, 2006

I am in the process of testing a SQL 2005 Std x64 server with merge replication using Windows Mobile 5.0 clients and SQL 2005 Mobile. The test DB is a copy of the currently active DB, but has been expanded to include some new tables to support planned application functionality extensions.

Once the publication exceeds 97 Articles, the error is thrown that "The buffer pool is too small or there are too many open cursors". If I drop one article everything is fine. I ran a test with dummy DB that had 100 blank tables, and this initialized just fine on the client. The additional articles I am publishing (the 98th table) is also empty, but it throws the error anyway.

Is there a limit on the total size/number of changes that can be sent? Since I have run tests sending over 64,000 changes to a client during initialization this does not seem to be the case (I am only attempting a little more than 9,700 changes on this initialization).

Some other ideas that have been tested without success are to stop the user triggers from propagating, and toggling the AWE setting for SQL. The Replication Monitor does say the client completes replication, and it seems to choke at the very end of completing replication when it attempts to write to the tracking tables. The last successful action is sys.sp_MSadd_merge_history90, and it appears to be acting on the last table added to the publication.

There does not appear to be a limit on the number or articles, since I can publish more articles in a dummy DB than I am able here, so it seems to be something to do with size. Any information would be helpful, this is a very frustrating issue. Thanks!

High CPU Utilization On Merge Replication With SQL 2005 Mobile

Jan 10, 2006

I have a question for anyone who mas some tips/pointers for optimizing SQL merge replication publications. 

The front end web server is running IIS 6.0 on Windows 2003 x86 Server Standard (Server A).  The back end database server is running SQL 2000 Standard on Windows 2003 x86 Standard (Server B).  The merge replication clients connect via HTTPS over the Internet from a custom C#.NET 2005 application using SQL 2005 Mobile running on Windows Mobile 5.0 (Client).

The publication itself has several filters on it.  The entry point uses the user's Windows username to start the filter.  Based on the user, it then filters the records in multiple tables.  There are 68 articles and 44 filter statements.  The filters extend multiple layers deep, in other words they are not all filtering off the HOST_NAME() variable, some tables filter from records in tables that filter from the HOST_NAME() variable.  The publication is set to minimize data sent to the clients, and considers a subscription out of date if it has not synced in the last 4 days.  All the rowguids are indexed as well.

There are approximately 35 clients actively using the application at any given time.  On average, a client will initiate a merge replication 3-4 times per hour from 8am-5pm.  Generally, a sync will take between 10 seconds and 2 minutes to complete, with most of them being around 30 seconds on average. 

When a client starts a sync, there is a spike to about 50% on the server's CPU graph.  If multiple clients attempt to sync at the same time the CPU utilization can be pushed to 100% for extended periods (more than 30 seconds). 

I recently completed a project to increase the bandwidth available to the clients, and plan to reduce the number of filters significantly (although this will obviously increase the amount of data going to the clients and the storage needs on the individual devices).  I also plan on changing the setting to not minimize the amount of data sent to the clients.

Having said all that, does anyone have any information about how to further optimize merge publications to mobile clients?  The next publication will be on SQL 2005 x64 Standard if I can solve the issues in the text environment.  I would like to enhance the publication as much as possible to make the end user experience better than it currently is.

Thanks!

Memory Usage Of SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition

Jan 2, 2007

Hi forum readers,

we are working on a release 2.0 mobile solution right now. In our version 1.0 we did not have to worry about memory issues as our application was the only application running on our target devices (e.g. T-Mobile MDA Compact II Pocket PCs, WM2005).
Now we need to share the available memory with others. As our application relies on its SQL Server 2005 Mobile Edition database we are wondering about memory usage of that server.

We know that a Pocket PC divides its memory into Storage and Program. If our application uses a 5 MB database and 1.5 MB for DLLs and it's exe-file. These files reside in the storage space when not loaded. When the application starts up it is loaded in the program memory. What happens to the 5 MB database file? Is is loaded into Program memory as well? Are only portions of that file loaded? Or is nothing loaded at all?

Does anyone have a deeper insight into that server an can answer my questions.

Best regards,
Tobias

Merge Replication - SQL Server 2005, Windows Vista And MSVisual Studio 2005

Jul 11, 2007

Hello everybody!

I hope that someone could help me.

I have a problem when i start sincronyzing with the emulator of MSVS2005 to SQL2005 in Windows Vista. I have the same program in the emulator, but sincronyzing with windows XP Pro and no problem...



I configure the connection to use the IUSR.



The source code that i use:



repl.InternetUrl = @"http://laptop/SQLMobileIIS/sqlcesa30.dll";

repl.Publisher = @"laptop";

repl.PublisherDatabase = @"database";

repl.PublisherSecurityMode = SecurityType.NTAuthentication;

repl.Publication = @"Pubdatabase";

repl.Subscriber = @"SQLMobile";

repl.SubscriberConnectionString = @"Data Source='" + nomeFicheiroBD + "';Password='3409'";



The error that returns is:



"Failure to connect to SQLServer 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"



Does anybody knows what i can do?

SQL Mobile 2005 Replication - SQL Mobile DLL Could Not Be Loaded - Error 28559

Jun 15, 2006

I am migrating a pocket PC application from VS 2003 to VS 2005 and a few weeks ago I hit the following problem when replicating

A SQL Mobile DLL could not be loaded. Reinstall SQL Mobile. [ DLL Name=sqlceca30.dll]

Scanning forums for help I saw that other people had had this problem and one

http://www.eggheadcafe.com/aspnet_answers/NETFrameworkCompactFramework/Feb2006/post25814466.asp

suggested that this problem could be circumvented by getting the replication object early and then continuously using the same object for subsequent replications.

I did this and it works a lot better now but ever so often I get another error which is

Native Error 28559 SQL Mobile encountered problems when opening the database

My only option at this point is to stop and start the application which cures the problem.

Locking Up After SQL Server Mobile Merge Replication

Nov 9, 2007



Hi ,
I would like to get your advice in an issue that I am facing regarding merge replication.
The flow is like:
1) User enter his login name and password.
2) Host_name is set as the login name that the user enters.
3) Based on the HOST_NAME property after filtering user gets the records relevent only to him
(Differnet subscriber may use same mobile device).

4) He make some changes in the local sdf according to the business logic.
5) The application Syncs with server on the next login session.

My issue is when I am trying to run the application in emulator exactly at the sdf updating part the application terminates.
Error mess: Connection to Remote Device has been lost.....
If I execute the same sql insert query it works om the local sdf and master database.
Emulator used where Pocket PC 2003 SE and Windows Mobile 6 classic emulator.
I have installed 1) Visual Studio 2005 SP 1 2) net compact framework SP2.

When I comment all the code related to Sync ,application works witout any issue.
And the same application works in my "I mate kjam".

The code that I use is given below:
==========================================================================

public void Sync(string hostname, int newsub) // Parameters for HOSTNAME and flag to denote new user or existing //user.

{

SqlCeReplication repl = new SqlCeReplication();

repl.InternetUrl = @"http://231.000.000.211/Merge/sqlcesa30.dll";

repl.Publisher = @"SERVER";

repl.PublisherDatabase = @"Merge";

repl.PublisherSecurityMode = SecurityType.DBAuthentication;

repl.PublisherLogin = @"sa";

repl.PublisherPassword = @"password";

repl.Publication = @"Merge";

repl.Subscriber = @"MergeSub";

repl.HostName = hostname;







repl.SubscriberConnectionString = @"Data Source=""Program FilesMerge.sdf"";Max Database Size=128;Default Lock Escalation =100;";





try

{

if (newsub == 0)

{

if (File.Exists(@"Program FilesMerge.sdf"))

{

File.Delete(@"Program FilesMerge.sdf");

}



repl.AddSubscription(AddOption.CreateDatabase);

repl.Synchronize();

repl.Dispose();

MessageBox.Show("newuser sync Done");

}

else

{

if (!File.Exists(@"Program FilesMerge.sdf"))

{

repl.AddSubscription(AddOption.CreateDatabase);

repl.Synchronize();

repl.Dispose();

MessageBox.Show("FirstSync Done");

}

else

{

repl.Synchronize();

repl.Dispose();

MessageBox.Show("SameuserSync Done");

}

}

=================================================================================
Please advise......

Merge Replication Issues SQL Server 2005 X64

Jul 12, 2007

Hi ppl,

I have installed SQL Server 2005 x64 Enterprise edition with Service Pack 2 on a Windows Server 2003 x64 Standard Edition with Service Pack 2.

Now I have to configure Merge Replication that will work with SQL Server Compact Edition database on Windows Mobile devices.

Distributor and the Publisher are the same server.

IIS 6.0 is installed on the windows server. I have installed the SQL Server Compact Edition Server tools on the server. However the compact edition server tools are only available for 32bit servers and I have also found out from the article http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx/kb/912430 that you cannot replicate data from SQL Server 2005 to SQL Server Compact Edition by using the 64-bit version of IIS.
So if this is true does that mean I can not use merge replication on 64 bit server? Does that mean I have to get another 32 bit server with 32 bit IIS on it to make this work or is there another work around. Am i missing something here?

Regards
Nabeel

Merge Replication Issue SQL Server 2005

Jul 18, 2007

I have set up merge replication with 1 publisher and 1 subscriber. Distribution is handled by a 3rd server.



I can generate a snapshot at the publisher and apply it to my subscriber. But when I insert some data (approx 30,000 rows) , the Synchronization agent gives the following error when It runs:


The merge process is retrying a failed operation made to article 'xxx' - Reason: 'The Merge Agent was unable to synchronize the row due to one or more unanticipated errors in the batch of changes. When troubleshooting, increase the -OutputVerboseLevel setting, restart the agent, and check for and resolve any errors generated by the database engine. '.





I have increased the OutputVerboseLevel setting and specified a file path in the -OutputMessageFile but the File is not being populated. All the references on books online say to put the file path in the -Output parameter but when I do it says it can only hold an integer value. So I cant see the errors generated by the database engine.



Could anybody please assist with this issue?



Thanks

SQL Server 2005 Merge Replication Without A Hard Coded Password

Jan 10, 2007

Hi. I've looked all over MSDN, newsgroups and the web but I can't find the answer to a problem that I am having.

The application that I am working on used both transactional and merge replication. I want to avoid hard coding passwords into an application that kicks off the pull replication on the client machine.

The client machines are all using SQL Server 2005 Express. The other machine is running SQL Server Standard. The passwords and login details are specified in the subscription properties in the Management Studio.

A fragment of the code is posted below. The transactional sychronization works fine without having to specify any passwords - however the merge replication does not work if both of the passwords are not specified.

private void SynchButton_Click(object sender, EventArgs e) { // Set up the subscriber connection details. subscriberConnection = new ServerConnection(subscriberName); try { // Connect to the Subscriber. subscriberConnection.Connect(); // Do the transactional subscription synchronisation independantly of the // merge subscription replication. try { transPullSubscription = new TransPullSubscription(subscriptionDbName, publisherName, publicationDbName, transPublicationName, subscriberConnection); // If the pull subscription and the job exists, start the agent job. if (transPullSubscription.LoadProperties() && transPullSubscription.AgentJobId != null) { TransSynchronizationAgent transSyncAgent = transPullSubscription.SynchronizationAgent; transSyncAgent.Synchronize(); } else { } } catch (Exception ex) { } // Do the merge subscription synchronisation independantly of the // transactional subscription replication. try { // Set up the subscription details for the merge subscription (bi-directional data) mergePullSubscription = new MergePullSubscription(subscriptionDbName, publisherName, publicationDbName, mergePublicationName, subscriberConnection); // If the pull subscription and the job exists, start the agent job. if (mergePullSubscription.LoadProperties() && mergePullSubscription.AgentJobId != null) { MergeSynchronizationAgent mergeSyncAgent = mergePullSubscription.SynchronizationAgent; mergeSyncAgent.DistributorPassword = "<<password>>"; mergeSyncAgent.PublisherPassword = "<<password>>"; mergeSyncAgent.Synchronize(); }etc etc..

Any help or suggestions will be greatly appeciated. Thanks.

Invalid Column Name 'rowguid'. Error When Generating Snapshot For Merge Replication SQL Server 2005

May 15, 2007

Hi there,



I have setup merge replication which successfully synchronizes with a group of desktop users using SQL Compact Edition.



However now I have setup Article Filters and when I attempt to regenerate the snapshot I get the following error:



Invalid column name 'rowguid'.

Failed to generate merge replication stored procedures for article 'AssignedCriteria'.



When I look at publication properties at the Articles page.. All my tables have the rowguid uniqueidentifier successfully added to tables and selected as a compulsory published column, apart from the table above "AssignedCriteria".. Even when I attempt to select this column in the article properties page and press ok, when I come back it is deselected again. ( The Rowguid column is however physically added to the table)



I have scripted the publication SQL and then totally reinstalled from scratch, including the database but for some reason it doesn't like this table. I remove the article filters, but still this "rowguid" is never "selected" in article properties.



We are using Uniqueidentifiers in other columns as well for historical reasons, but this doesn't appear to be a problem in other tables..



DDL For this problematic table is as follows



CREATE TABLE [dbo].[AssignedCriteria](

[AssignedCriteria] [uniqueidentifier] NOT NULL,

[CriteriaName] [varchar](255) COLLATE SQL_Latin1_General_CP1_CI_AS NULL,

[TargetScore] [numeric](5, 0) NULL,

[HRPlan] [uniqueidentifier] NULL,

[ActualScore] [numeric](18, 0) NULL,

[Criteria] [uniqueidentifier] NULL,

[Employee] [uniqueidentifier] NULL,

[IsActive] [bit] NULL,

[addDate] [datetime] NULL,

[totalscore] [numeric](5, 0) NULL,

[isCalc] [bit] NULL,

[Weight] [decimal](18, 2) NULL,

[ProfileDetail] [uniqueidentifier] NULL,

[rowguid] [uniqueidentifier] ROWGUIDCOL NOT NULL CONSTRAINT [MSmerge_df_rowguid_7FF25DF903B6415FBFF24AC954BC88E4] DEFAULT (newsequentialid()),

CONSTRAINT [PK_AssignedCriteria] PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED

(

[AssignedCriteria] ASC

)WITH (PAD_INDEX = OFF, STATISTICS_NORECOMPUTE = OFF, IGNORE_DUP_KEY = OFF, ALLOW_ROW_LOCKS = ON, ALLOW_PAGE_LOCKS = ON) ON [PRIMARY]

) ON [PRIMARY] TEXTIMAGE_ON [PRIMARY]



Thanks.

Excessive Network Usage With SQL 2000 To SQL 2005 Transactional Replication

Aug 3, 2007

We have a SQL2000 database (Publisher) replicating inserts and updates across a 10Mb link to a SQL 2005 database (Subscriber). The Publisher has two tables we are interested in, 1 with 50 columns and 1 with 15. Both tables have 6 insert/update triggers that fire when a change is made to update columns on the publisher database.
We have set up a pull transactional replication from the Subscriber to occur against the Publisher every minute. We have limited the subscription/replication configuration to Publsih 6 columns from table 1 and 4 from table 2. Any change occuring on any other columns in the Publisher are of no interest. The SQL 2005 database has a trigger on table 1 and table 2 to insert values into a third table. There are around 7,000 insert/updates on table 1 and 28,000 on table 2 per day. All fields in the tables are text.
We are seeing "excessive" network traffic occuring of approximately 1MB per minute (approx 2GB per 24 hrs). We also see that the Distributor databases are getting very large -- upto around 30GB and growing until they get culled. We have reduced the culling intrval from 72 hrs to 24 hours to reduce the size.
Does anyone have any suggestions as to how this "excessive" network traffic can be minimised and how the distributor database size can be minimised. I think that maybe they are both related?

Thanks,
Geoff

Problem Using SQL Server Mobile 2005 With Windows Mobile 5 Application

Mar 23, 2006

Hello,

I am developping a non-managed C++ application for PocketPC using a SQL Server mobile database.

The application is compiled for PocketPC 2003 and uses SQL Server Mobile v2. I use Visual Studio 2005. But I need to compile the application for Windows Mobile 5.0 devices. So I installed the WM5 SDK and had the WM5 into my project configuration.

The "ssceoledb.h" which I include incluses the "transact.h" file. But my problem is that this file is only provided with the PocketPC 2003 SDK and not in the WM5 SDK.
So I cannot use the WM5 configuration project with SQL Server. I also tried with the last SQL Server Mobile 2005 (ie v3.0) and the "ssceoledb30.h" also includes "transact.h".

Did I miss something to install ?
Do you know how I can resolve the problem ?

By advance, thank you for any answer.

SQL Server Standard 2005, SQL Mobile 2005 Data Encryption Issues

Jul 26, 2007

Hi,

I have a central database server that is runnning on SQL 2005 standard edition and Windows server 2003 standard as OS.

I realise that I can use SQL statements to encrypt and decrypt the data inside the standard SQL.

However, how do I read and write the data via an web application coded in C#.net and is also running on the same machine?

Another issue is, I need to replicate some of the data in this SQL standard over to a SQL mobile running on a mobile device running on Windows CE 5.0.

The mobile device also needs to read and write data to the encrypted data via a C#.net application.

Question is, with all these requirements to be met, can I use AES? I know that AES is not available on Windows XP and Windows Server 2000 and I cant find AES in the .net compact framework.

how do i go about ensuring security? how do I ensure that the symmetric key is the same both on the SQL standard and SQL mobile?

thank you.

VS 2005/SQL Server2005 - Direct Connection From Win Mobile Emulator To Desktop SQL Server 2000 Or 2005

Aug 10, 2007

Hello Everyone,

I'm trying to connect to Desktop SQL Server 2000 from Windows mobile PC Emulator (VS 2005). I need a direct connection using connection string to SQL Server 2000 through local wireless network without IIS.

Bellow is the code that I use. After executing this code I get an error on line Conn.Open(). Error says SQL Server does not exist or access denied.
SQL is un and running, and I can log in using SA username from the desktop. Even if I chance IP for another SQL server in my connection string I still get the same error. There is no firewall of any kind running.


Dim connectionSTR As String = "Persist Security Info=False;Integrated Security=False;Server=192.168.0.202,1433;initial catalog=MyDB;user id=sa;password=;"

Dim Conn As SqlConnection

Conn = New SqlConnection(connectionSTR)

Conn.Open()


If Conn.State = ConnectionState.Open Then
MessageBox.Show("Open")
End If


About my environment: SQL Server 2000 is running on Desktop PC with Windows XP SP2. Application which I need to connect to SQL Server is in Visual Studio 2005. I execute the application in Windows Mobile PC Emulator and try to connect to SQL Server from emulator.

Your advice and help is very appreciated

Thank you

Ika

Using Row Filtering In SQL Mobile Merge Replication

Oct 25, 2007

Hi,,

I understand that it is possible to set filters dynamically using functions 1) SUSER_SNAME() 2) and HOST_NAME().
SUSER_SNAME() returns the login credentials used in the subscritption.
HOST_NAME() returns the host machine and can be overloaded with buisiness information.

My application should work as below;
1) User enters the login credentials.
2) Some information as the User name passed to server and if the user name is valid , the rows related to this particular user get downloaded to device.

A new user is added directly in the Users table in master database.

My questions are :
1) If I have 3000 users , should I create 3000 subscriptions with 3000 HOSTName or Login credential information to differentiate btween users?
2) If yes , other than using the wizard is there any scripts available to create large number of subscription?
3) If add subscription programatically , should I re-initialise subscription for each new user which is assigned with a diferrent host name value?

my current code looks like this

SqlCeReplication repl = new SqlCeReplication();

repl.InternetUrl = @"http://100.000.000.000/test/sqlcesa30.dll";
repl.Publisher = @"something";
repl.PublisherDatabase = @"something";
repl.PublisherSecurityMode = SecurityType.DBAuthentication;
repl.PublisherLogin = @"sa";
repl.PublisherPassword = @"something";
repl.Publication = @"somethingPublisher";
repl.Subscriber = @"something";

repl.HostName = @"newuser"; // The user name entered in the login form assigned to Hostname property.

repl.SubscriberConnectionString = @"Data Source=""Program Files esthost.sdf"";Max Database Size=128;Default Lock Escalation =100;";

try
{

repl.ReinitializeSubscription(true);
repl.Synchronize();
repl.Dispose();

}

Please advise

SQLCe Errors When Doing Developing A SQL Mobile Application With Visual Studio 2005 And SQL Server 2005 Tutorial

Feb 26, 2008

I'm attempting to use RDA to synchronize a pocket pc emulator with SQL Server 2005 database by following tutorial http://msdn2.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa454892.aspx, which uses AdvWorksMobile database that comes with SQL Server 2005.

When get to testing of "To test application features " ( step 4 of the merge replication setup lab ), I am receiving SQLCe Exception errors.

ORIGINALLY, I was able to deploy an application and view the local database on the emulator, but once I clicked "InitSinc" button, I received an error.

"Failure to connect to SQL Server with provided connection information. SQL Server does not" exist, access is denied because the SQL user is not a valid user on the SQL Server, or the password is incorrect.
Found this error listed in Server Agent Errors log http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms172357.aspx, but it wasn't very helpful since it doesn't provide any suggestions on fixing the problems.

I am brand new to SQL CE Server , mobile programming and .NET framework in general so please bare with me



All the connections / security settings, etc that were set up were taken from a tutorial so I am not sure what SQLCeServer is complaining about. Reading up on the error on the web didn't help, it all pointed to making sure that the snapshot folder had correct permissions set up. I verified that MACHINENAMEUISR_MACHINENAME guest user had Read rights to the database so I don't think that piece is the problem. Otherwise ,Merge publication has been setup in Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio by following the tutorial.


I am trying to run this sync on my home pc so there should be no issues with any user permissions


I have IIS installed


I did NOT have SQL Server Agent running in management studio at this time


I am trying to run this tutorial on an XP machine, which is my regular home PC so I dont think there are any special networking settings to consider


I am able to hit http://localhost/AdvWorksMobile/sqlcesa30.dll from my pc OK, but when I try to hit it from a cradled emulator ( after replacing "localhost" with "MACHINE_NAME" ), Internet Explorer on the emulator gives me a "Cannot Connect With Current Settings" error message. This part wasn't part of tutorial but decided so not sure if I am supposed to be able to hit it from my emulator..so I am not sure if the fact that I can't hit it is related to the problem.
AFTER STARTING SQL SERVER AGENTin Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio, I killed the application, and after relaunching it, it hits "The Specified table does not exist [Vendor]" error. This time it doesn't even launch first - that is I dont even get to pressing "InitSinc" button. Debugger is showing that this error is hit on the following line in AdvWorksMobile.AddWorksDataSetTableAdapters

int returnValue = this.Adapter.Fill(dataTable);

I am not sure why the errors changed on me after starting SQL Server Agent.
What can I do to fix this connection problem?

Thank you so much for your help!

Irina
